When Xiao Shagou's words fell, Xiao Aci's expression remained normal, and then he reacted, his eyes gradually widened, staring at Xiao Shagou.

Xiao Shagou saw that the king of the county finally looked at him directly, he laughed, and felt that he was lucky to be able to learn and use it——

"Ouch!"

One of his legs was attacked suddenly, and the pain was as severe as if it was broken. Xiao Sha hugged his leg screaming in pain, and then he was kicked hard on his buttocks, and he fell to the ground.

"Jun... why did the king kick me?" Xiao Shagou looked at the perpetrator—Xiao Aci in shock, before reacting and asking.

Xiao Aci ignored him at all, raised his foot and continued to kick hard.Xiao Shagou saw his deadly attack, he didn't care about his appearance, and turned over on the ground directly, dodging Xiao A's third kick.

Xiao Aci did not let go of Xiao Shagou, and continued with the fourth, fifth and sixth kicks...

Xiao Shagou rolled back and forth on the ground like a dog to avoid Xiao Aci's continuous attacks.

While hiding, he cried out his grievances and begged Xiao Aci for mercy in Khitan language, wondering why he had offended Xiao Aci.Afterwards, the two of them tossed about, Xiao Shagou was beaten until his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and then he realized that the Chinese sentence he said was not a compliment but a curse.

Xiao Shagou was so angry that he wanted to settle accounts with the chief interpreter, as well as Cui Tao and the others, expressing his dissatisfaction with Han Qi.

"You are the biggest official, you have to punish them for this matter! How dare they play tricks!"

Han Qi turned around and asked Cui Tao and the others suspiciously: "Did you play tricks on other people's goose?"

Cui Tao: "No, no. Han Tui Guan still doesn't understand his subordinates? I'm really not interested in playing with geese, only interested in eating."

"It's not a goose, it's a goose—" Xiao Shagou tried to correct his accent angrily, but he still couldn't pronounce it correctly, so he pointed at himself.

"Useless stuff!" Xiao Aci yelled Xiao Shagou embarrassingly, scolding him to get out of here and stop embarrassing Daliao.

Xiao Shagou refused to accept it, and really wanted to find out the source of the blame, but he was a small person, and he couldn't disobey the order of the county king, so he had to leave in despair, full of grievances.

After Xiao Aci hit Xiao Sha hook enough, of course he also knew that he was being tricked, and he was very dissatisfied with Han Qi and Cui Tao's attitude, and warned them not to push forward.

"It's just a language misunderstanding. He just misunderstood it. No one asked him to learn it, and he didn't expect him to say it like today. If the Prince of Xiping doesn't believe it, you can ask him again. "

Xiao Aci twitched the corner of his mouth, he didn't have the time to go to Xiao Shagou to confront such a thing.I really didn't want to arrange this matter intentionally, it should be that idiot Xiao Shagou was doing it himself.But this didn't prevent Xiao A stabbingly looking at Cui Tao with murderous eyes. The fact that Cui Tao threatened him with secrets still made him very angry.

Xiao Aci snorted coldly, turned around and was about to leave, but Cui Tao stopped him.

"What else is there?" Xiao Aci immediately shouted at Cui Tao.

Cui Tao smiled kindly, and asked Xiao Aci to cooperate with the investigation, "Why don't the missionaries care so much about the disappearance of Yeludou'er and others?"

"We Khitan people are not like you Song people. If you don't like them, you pretend to be friendly. They are just mediocre and incompetent people. If they die, they will die. Why should I feel sad for the deaths of those I don't care about? But they It's a Khitan envoy, representing the lord of the country to Da Song, but something happened on your Da Song's territory. You Da Song must give us an explanation."

Xiao Aci's explanation was very frank, so people don't need to ask him any more.But before Xiao Aci left, he specially looked at Cui Tao solemnly, and warned her that it's best not to keep getting bigger and bigger based on just one thing.

"I will give you three days at most to find out the truth, and you must give us a satisfactory explanation. If not, we will settle the two accounts together. Don't think that I will be caught by you because of this!" Xiao A After finishing speaking, the assassin flicked his sleeves fiercely and left.

Cui Tao didn't accept Xiao Aci's threat at all.He was clearly 'caught by her because of this matter', otherwise he would not have entered the palace according to her words.It sounds fierce, but it's actually not that scary.

When Han Qi saw that Wang Zhao was back, he asked him how the investigation was going and what clues he had.

Wang Zhao: "This group of people walked through Yujie and passed the state bridge, and suddenly they couldn't find any trace."

Although the thieves came here to welcome the Liao mission, they pretended to be people from Kaifeng Prefecture, but they must have had some battles. Besides, they were all dressed in the clothes of Kaifeng government officials, which was eye-catching.With so many people and vehicles walking on the road, and it just happened today, it is inevitable that some vendors or passers-by will leave an impression on them.

"I just read the testimony of the guards of the mansion. They said that they all look ordinary, and they are not particularly memorable. Most of the time, the two leaders show their faces, and the people behind them all lower their heads, which is even more unobtrusive. Pay special attention to their appearance."

These people came prepared, acting arrogantly, but boldly and cautiously.

Cui Tao showed Han Qi and Wang Zhao the portraits of the two leading men he had just drawn.

These two men have square and round faces, single eyelids, they look different, but they are also ordinary.It can be said that the common ground does not have any special characteristics, and it is easy to be lost in the public without being noticed.

"With this few clues, how could it be possible to solve the case within three days?"

Wang Zhao sighed dejectedly, feeling that his days as a military patrol should be over.I am afraid that being dismissed as a commoner is a lucky result, and maybe he will be held accountable and go to jail.Because the waist badges used by these thieves when they disguised themselves as government servants belonged to the military inspection shop under his command, he, as the chief officer in charge, could hardly escape the blame.

After Wang Zhao finished speaking, when he looked at Cui Tao and Han Qi, he immediately apologized that he should not have made such a complaint.

Han Qi patted Wang Zhao's shoulder to comfort him, expressing his understanding of his difficulties.

Wang Zhao felt even more guilty because of this. Compared with what Han Tuiguan had endured, this was really nothing to him.Going to see Mrs. Cui again, she was threatened by the Xiping County King of the Liao Kingdom with harsh words just now, but at this moment she is still indifferent, her emotions are not affected at all, and she is still concentrating on checking the map and analyzing the case.He was the only one complaining, which is really inappropriate.

"The missions traveled a lot, and they were very conspicuous on the road, but they disappeared after crossing the state bridge. Either they were hiding in this area, but the possibility is unlikely, so they are too easy to be traced by the government. Or It is these people who dispersed in this area, disguised themselves again, and fled to other places." Cui Tao said, "So many people in the mission were controlled and then transferred without anyone noticing, so the place where they stayed temporarily must be different. It’s small. Ordinary houses can’t accommodate the carriages and horses of the missions, and even if they could, they would be crowded and eye-catching.”

Cui Tao felt that it was necessary to find a place in this area that was suitable for them to stay temporarily but was not so conspicuous.

Wang Zhao immediately put himself in the mood, and immediately led people to investigate in this direction.

Han Qi took over the latest evidence and read it silently.

Han Zong rushed over at this time, followed by his attendant Zhu Zhao, holding a food box in his hand.Han Zong asked Zhuzhao to put crystal soap, raw water papaya, sugar mung bean licorice ice and snow cold water, plum ginger, fragrant candy fruit and crispy abalone on the table.

"It's time to eat. I think you probably can't eat, so I asked Zhuzhao to prepare these desserts. Eat to understand the heat, and the mouth is sweet. Maybe it can also relax the mind, so I thought of what is important clue."

"It makes sense!" Cui Tao really felt that she should relax a bit, and brought a bowl of crystal soap, and also gave Han Qi a bowl, and gently placed it in front of him.

Han Qi was concentrating on reading the evidence in his hand. After realizing something, he raised his eyes to look at Cui Tao, then gave Cui Tao a slight smile, and then buried his head and continued to concentrate.

Seeing this scene, Han Zong immediately shifted his gaze to look elsewhere.When Cui Tao started to eat the crystal soap, he looked away.

This crystal soap is sugar-soaked acacia kernels. The acacia beans are big and round, translucent, clear and crystal-like. Phlegm Tongqiao effect.

After Cui Tao ate a small bowl of sweet and glutinous crystal soap, she felt that she was a little enlightened, and she was more energetic than before.

Cui Tao didn't eat enough, and the rest of the crystal soap was distributed, and Li Yuan and Li Cai were all eating.Cui Tao's eyes fell on the untouched bowl of crystal soap in front of Han Qi. Seeing that Han Qi was still concentrating on reading the evidence, she had no intention of eating it, so she quietly stretched out her hand——

"Mo Lixiang."

"Ah? What Mo Lixiang?" Cui Tao was stunned for a moment, and then when she was looking at Han Qi, she suddenly shivered and took the evidence from Han Qi.

There was a groom Liu who was in charge of taking care of the horses in the mansion. After hearing the news that Ling Zhengshi was going out, he hitched a carriage and drove the carriage to the main entrance of the mansion.The Liao mission had its own coachman. After taking over the carriage, Liu Mafu jumped out of the cart and walked around to the back door to enter the mansion.When he was walking back in the carriage, he passed by the government servants who came to pick up the Liao mission, and he smelled a faint scent of marijuana.

The groom takes care of the horses in the stable all the year round, no matter how clean the stable is, it will still have some smell.Because he has to smell the unpleasant smell all year round, he will be particularly sensitive and remember the smell when he smells it.

"When the villain smelled the fragrance at that time, he couldn't help feeling in his heart: I thought that the government servants in Kaifeng Mansion would also be rough men who smelled of sweat, but I didn't expect to be so particular about it, and they still smell good."

The groom honestly explained every detail of the time. He even went to take a look at the source of the fragrance. It was a thin government servant with his head down, so he couldn't see his face clearly, but his skin was fair and delicate.At that time, he couldn't help but sighed in his heart again, it turned out that there were such clean-looking little white faces among the yamen servants.

Cui Tao immediately mentioned that there was a fire in the stables of Kaifeng Mansion before, and someone took the opportunity to sneak into her room and put down a provocative letter with the content of "it's interesting".

"When I went back that night and opened the door, I smelled a faint fragrance of marijuana in the room."

It was precisely because of this smell that Cui Tao immediately became alert and went to the house and found the letter on the table.

"Sure enough, the red clothes are related to this case." Han Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, then lowered them, and tapped the table lightly with his index finger.

"Actually, the last time I was in the room, I smelled the smell of merizoma, and I felt a little familiar for no reason, and I couldn't help but think of someone." While Cui Tao was speaking, she had already brought the bowl of crystal soap in front of Han Qi to her. up.

"Who?"
