Lu Yin rarely saw Liang Huan so anxious, so he hurried to the door to tell the little eunuch.

Liang Huan frowned and thought about it. He said he was going to travel for 20 days. Why didn't he tell himself about such a big thing?You have come to Weiyang Palace to see Lu Yin, so why not come in and tell yourself?

The last time he said that we would meet every ten days, he compromised.Now it has become 20 days again, so will there be 30 days or even longer in the future?

Thinking about it this way, Liang Huan felt more and more afraid.

Did you feel that if you just turned around and left, it would be unbearable for you, so you gradually increased the interval between meetings to help yourself get used to life without him?

The teacup in his hand fell to the ground, but it was not broken, and the tea flowed all over the floor.

He didn't want to admit this possibility, but thinking of the past, he couldn't explain why it was so painful when he stated it.Although I tried my best to suppress it, the pain still revealed inadvertently, which is enough to show that it is deeply rooted from the inside out.

The instinct of the body is not deceiving, even his body is rejecting him, so his true attitude towards himself is obvious.

It was clearly agreed last time, he promised, he said he would never leave...

But he left again this time, what does that mean?

An hour later, Lu Yin returned to Weiyang Palace, and saw a spilled teacup lying on the ground, Liang Huan lying on the table with his head buried in his arms.

"Your Majesty..." he called softly, "The servant has asked."

Liang Huan rubbed his face against his arm, then turned to look at him.

"I went to the Ministry of War. Deng Shangshu said that he and his friends from the Ministry of Punishment had gone to Jiangzhou. Then I went to the Ministry of Punishment to ask. The chief officer, Xu Gong, went to Jiangzhou to investigate the case, and he was in Yanjiang County, Haining Prefecture."

"Investigate the case? What case?"

"The former magistrate of Yanjiang County was attacked in office and was poked blind."

Liang Huan patted the table heavily.

How could the two of them investigate any case?Just went there alone, what if the two of them were attacked again?Two feeble scholars who are powerless, who will protect them when the time comes?

Liang Huan became even more uneasy, feeling that he couldn't let him go.

He thought for a while, and told Lu Yin: "Go and find Lin Zhuhui, there is another one, Jiang Ji."

He directly said to Lin Zhuhui: "I'm going to go out soon, maybe for ten or eight days. You take care of everything for me, and let Ouyang Qing interfere as little as possible."

"Where are you going?" Lin Zhuhui was very surprised, even if he wanted to leave, he had to tell in advance.

"Don't worry about it, it's not going to fight, nothing will happen."

Lin Zhuhui had no choice but to agree, and planned to go back and ask Deng Zhi, if he could let him leave everything behind and leave, if there was something wrong with his sweetheart.

Liang Huan said to Jiang Ji: "I'm going to leave for a few days, and Xu Gong and Chen Zhizhi are not here. If anything happens here, you can discuss it, and it will be up to you in the end. You can't do anything like Prime Minister Lin." letter."

After saying these words, Liang Huan set off overnight.He and Lu Yin each had a horse, and it was much faster than taking a boat.

Chen Zhi and Xu Gong casually wandered around Yanjiang County, collecting a bunch of complaints, anger and even accusations against the new county magistrate Jiang Weimin.They were all surprised, what kind of a county magistrate would he have to do, so that the whole county hates him, but there is nothing he can do about it?

Then, they got Qiao Cong's address from Jiang Weimin, and then visited him.

Qiao Cong sat in the hall, his eyes covered with a cloth strip.Xu Gong showed his son the official document of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and asked: "Mr. Qiao, before and after you were attacked, people always came in and out of the house. Did you hear any clues, footsteps or something like that?"

After hearing his question, Qiao Cong sighed and said, "It's useless to ask these questions. Jiang Weimin must have done it. The footsteps don't sound like him. He couldn't do it himself. He probably found someone else."

"Since the footsteps don't sound like it, how do you know it must be him?" The statement was puzzled.

"We get along day and night, I know him too well." The smile on Qiao Cong's face became contemptuous, "He never hides his bad thoughts, but he always does it cleanly, without leaving any evidence. So what if you know it's him, Even if the whole county hates him, his promotion is not delayed because of his political achievements."

Now that he said this, the statement made him feel more and more that the murderer might not be caught in this case, and he felt less guilty about using it to solve private affairs.

He softened his voice and said: "Mr. Qiao, you also know that we are from the capital, and we have some connections. Although Jiang Weimin cannot be made to pay for his crimes, it is still possible to punish him. We want you to tell Huang Tongyu before the next inquiry." While talking with you, he showed killing intent, and the footsteps heard in the side hall are similar to his."

Qiao Cong frowned gradually, "What are you going to do? Isn't this slandering a good person?"

Chen Zhi was not angry, and patiently explained: "If we do nothing, in order to settle this case, Jiang Weimin will probably not let him go. Why don't we intervene and arrange an instigator for him, at least could save his life."

Qiao Cong pondered for a long time, and finally said slowly: "You guys mean what you say."

"That's natural." Chen Zhi smiled.

Then, Xu Gong taught Qiao Cong a passage about a student named Yan Weihang many years ago when Qiao Cong was the County Registrar.

"Xingli, look at this!" Xu Gong rushed into the room with a piece of paper, and slapped the paper in front of the statement.

"The innkeeper wrote it to me. This is all the bad things he has heard about Jiang Weimin. According to your request, there are names and addresses..."

Chen Zhi nodded, then moved another piece of paper under the lamp to his side, and said, "You also read this, I wrote it for Huang Tongyu."

Xu Gong read it quickly and doubted: "Can he understand words like 'coercion' and 'opportunity'? He is a farmer!"

Chen Zhi glanced at him, turned his head away, "Then change it yourself."

Xu Gong hurriedly laughed twice, "I should be able to understand it, so I won't change it."

"Send it to him tomorrow, and then you go back to Beijing first. You copy this piece of paper and bring it to Yan Qianxi, so that they can confess at the same time."

"What do you mean I should go back first? What about you?" Xu Gong frowned.

Chen Zhi patted the piece of paper he had just brought, "I have already agreed to County Magistrate Qiao, and I still have to take care of Jiang Weimin's affairs."

Xu Gong rolled his eyes, "You are the head of the military department, can you manage it?"

Chen Zhi thought for a moment and said: "We also have a friend from the Ministry of Officials, just a county magistrate, it shouldn't be difficult to move his evaluation."

"No, if you want to do this, isn't there a more convenient way..." Xu Gong said lazily.

Chen Zhi smiled lightly, shook his head and said: "It's not very good, it's not a big deal, it can't be done."

Hearing this, Xu Gong raised his eyebrows, "Are you stupid? If you don't ask him for anything, why should you serve him?"

The face of the statement turned cold.

"You put aside what you should do and didn't do it. You ran all the way to this ghostly place, and you went all out to solve a trivial trouble for him. Why do you have it? Do you owe him?"

Chen Zhi stared at him and said bluntly: "Xu Zaixin, shut up."

"We can all see how much you have done for him. What has he rewarded you? If you talk about power and status, you are no better than us now! You only know how to give but don't know what to ask, and you are the one who cheats." Fool."

"you shut up!"

Statement Zhi slammed the pen in his hand in front of him.

"...If you don't listen to advice, you deserve it."

Chen Zhi felt that he couldn't stay here any longer, so he simply stood up from his seat, turned around and went out.

The ground was baked by the sun all day, and even though it was completely dark, the whole body was still hot.

In the small county town at night, there are not many pedestrians on the road.Statement Zhi walked casually along the side of the road, messy thoughts lingering in his mind.

Xu Gong's words made him feel bad.Of course he would not agree with his words, Xu Gong himself was used to the law of reciprocal exchange, but his own affairs could not be counted.

He was in a bad mood just because he was not happy when Xu Gong mentioned this person.

Chen Zhizhi chose to come to Jiangzhou to do this matter this time, indeed to solve the problem of dealing with Yan Weihang, but also to give himself some time to escape.He felt that maybe by staying away from it, and not touching it, he could slowly calm down.

But when he was with Xu Gong, his sad things were touched by him all day long.

As he was walking, he suddenly heard the sound of something exploding in the sky.Looking up, among the stars in the sky, I saw fireworks blooming.

From the capital to Jiangzhou, Liang Huan only walked for two days, and basically didn't sleep in the middle.After moving to Yanjiang County, he was a little confused.Before leaving, I only asked about the place, but in such a big county, where can I find someone?

Liang Huan led the horse and walked on the road in the county town, thinking that they would definitely not live in the county government office, where would they live?Hotel?Is there a hotel in this small broken county?Bai Zhen is smaller than this county and has hotels, so there should be hotels here too.

Just as he was thinking wildly, he was suddenly attracted by the fireworks that suddenly rose in the sky.

He casually asked an idler sitting by the side of the road: "It's not a festival, why are there fireworks?"

The man replied: "Today, Haining Mansion released the rankings in the prefectural examination, and it is estimated that the examinees released them."

Hearing this answer, Liang Huan suddenly fell into a long memory.

He suddenly asked, "Where is the highest place around here?"

"The highest place..." The man thought for a while and said, "It should be the West Tower. You can see it as soon as you leave the city from the west."

The West Tower is a three-storey observation building.The reason why this place is called Yanjiang County is because there is a river flowing in the west.Standing on the West Tower, you can just see the rolling waves of the river.

Chen Zhi stood at the window and looked out. He was not interested in the river water, but only wanted to watch the fireworks in the sky.

The fireworks here are far worse than those seen in the capital. They are scattered in twos and threes, the number is small, and the colors are monotonous.And looking at the fireworks on the Zhenwei Tower is almost head-up, but watching them here is no different from watching them on the ground, they are all looking up.

Watching fireworks on the Zhenwei Tower...

He had seen the fireworks three times in total, all with the same person.The first time was when someone actually set off fireworks, and the last two times were probably arranged by him.

What Xu Gong said was wrong, it's not that he doesn't reciprocate himself, it's just that he doesn't use the method of ennobling himself.If he really did this, he would not suffer.

Except for the time when he rescued Chen Xian, he didn't give him any real benefits, and he didn't seem to do much, just let himself feel that he was holding him in his hands and caring for him.

Such benefits can only be known by oneself, and others cannot understand.

"Chen Xingli?"

Statement is still immersed in emotion, the ears heard the call, but the brain waited for a long time before realizing that someone was calling him.

The author has something to say: Xu Gong: Showing affection in front of the outside every day, I have endured you two for a long time.
