Proudly follow your heart
Chapter 11
In the Xia Dynasty, the imperial city was called Shundu. Outside Shundu, there were several towns surrounding all sides, and each city was under the jurisdiction of officials. Taiwei's Mansion was in one of the cities, named Chixia.
There is a large population in Chixia City, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians on the market, which is extremely lively. Every morning, there will be city gate guards to open the gates and let people go out. As soon as the sky is dawn, you can see early risers carrying things and queuing up Wait at the door.
But on this day, there was no team passing by in front of the city gate, but it was surrounded by dense crowds. It is reasonable to say that with so many people, if you are watching the excitement, it will not be too quiet. Surprise and fear were all over the face, and no one dared to make any noise.
There was a corpse lying on the ground. The corpse was wearing a skirt and expensive clothes. It seemed that she was not a girl from an ordinary family, but now she was a dead person. What was even more frightening was her face. Those who had trouble before would lie on their stomachs. The dead body turned over, and seeing the shaved face, someone even vomited out breakfast.
The face whose muzzle and nose were cut off by a sharp weapon has long since lost its original appearance, even the eyes have been gouged out, a mass of blood and flesh, ordinary people have never seen such a scene, and they are all speechless in horror.The corpse was just outside the city gate, just blocking the way. It was supposed to be dragged away so that people could pass through, but the corpse was in such a horrible state of death that no one dared to move it. They just waited for the adults above to speak. People who passed through the city gate stopped at both ends of the city gate, frightened and guessing at the same time, who was the girl who was murdered so miserably.
At this moment, the sound of a carriage was heard in the distance, the wheels were rolling, the sound was not loud, but the billowing smoke and dust could be seen spreading far away.
A carriage arrived in front of the door. The four black horses were shiny in color, strong in physique, and at the same height. They raised their hooves and stepped forward. There is no decoration on the car, but a piece of light blue silk is seen as a door curtain, and on the car body inlaid with jade ornaments, even the hook for hanging the curtain is also a jade hook.
No matter how rich the big family is, they are not so particular. The common people are discussing and vying to watch the excitement, but they forgot that there is still a dead body on the ground. The corpse in the middle was in trouble again.
"I don't know which lord is here. Something happened here. Please wait until the city lord asks the captain to let him go." The city guard stepped forward and clasped his fists in front of the stopped carriage. There are three carriages.
I thought he was sitting in the carriage of a big man, with a head sticking out, a bearded face, unable to see his face clearly, the vaguely middle-aged man stroked his beard, got out of the carriage, and respectfully looked at the man behind. The carriage reported back, "Lord, something happened here, someone died, and the body was lying at the door. We can't make it through now."
"Then wait." Without asking too much, a deep voice from the carriage behind answered.
Just looking at the grandeur of the carriage, everyone thought the burly man sitting in the carriage was the master, but he was just a slave. He frowned, "Wait!"
"Where did you come from? The landlord? Who are the people inside?" The tone of the city guard changed drastically, and Xiao Hu was displeased. Landlord, what's the matter with you?"
"Wulou?!" The city guard immediately stepped back, pulled out the weapon on his waist, and blurted out, "Come on, cut them off!"
The carriage was parked in front of the door, and it didn't move at all. How could it be intercepted?The other guards drew their knives and surrounded them, not knowing what was going on. Someone stepped forward cautiously and asked quietly, "Boss, this is from Wulou, do you really want to stop him?"
The city guard here has naturally heard of the name of Wulou, but the day before yesterday I heard that the Taiwei wanted to ask Jun Zhanran, the owner of Wulou, to ask for credit. Repenting, he answered bravely, "The people in Wulou have nothing to do with the case Yingshuai is investigating. Stop them and hand them over to the Taiwei Lord!"
"Who dares to stop our people from Wulou?" Another man came down from a carriage behind him. He was dressed as a scribe and looked handsome. How can you be polite, "Xu Taiwei investigates the case and wants to ask the landlord of Wulou for questioning. Let your landlord follow us for a while."
The only blame is that the name of Guishou Wushuang is too prominent. When it comes to Wulou, everyone knows the landlord Jun Zhanran, and no one pays attention to the two entourages who followed the car. Furious, he guarded the carriage and said, "Luo Qian! I'll leave this to you!"
"It's up to you!" Luo Qian stepped forward and drew his sword, and the white light squeaked. Blood was seen on the city guard's face immediately.The city gate guards are about to fight someone!
Coming out of Fuluan Mountain, the journey was very peaceful. When the people of Jianghu saw the four carriages in Wulou, no one dared to provoke them at will. When they arrived at Chixia City, they were stopped by a small city guard who dared to say that they would hand over the owner of the building. For Xu Taiwei, although there are not many people in the world and the government, so far no one has dared to be so blatantly provocative. Luo Qian deliberately punished the city guard with a long sword, and the other guards joined the battle. The group, after a while, they started fighting.
The carriage was still parked outside the city gate, and the people who got off had already arrived in the city. The guards on the tower saw the chaos below and thought someone was causing trouble, so they led them down the tower to join the battle. Xiao Hu asked in a low voice, "Lord, look……"
A voice in the car said faintly, "Just don't kill anyone."
Xiao Hu was overjoyed, and raised his voice and shouted, "Luo Qian, did you hear that, kid? The landlord said don't kill anyone." In other words, as long as no one is killed, anything else is fine.
"Understood!" Luo Qian was still free to answer while resisting dozens of guards alone.
Only then did the city guard realize that this one person was able to defeat dozens of them. Some of them were injured, but the other party had not lost a single hair. Catch it for me!"
Since Taiwei Xu wants to ask the owner of Wulou for questioning, then Wulou must be suspected, maybe he is the prisoner in that case. Seeing the situation expand, after the city guard ordered him to speculate like this, he comforted himself.
The huge bell on the tower rang, and the soldiers guarding the city rushed down one by one, and surrounded the carriages outside the city gate. The common people didn't know, so those who wanted to leave the city and those who wanted to enter the city, blocked the inside and outside of the city.
Things really got serious, the city guard thumped in his heart, but Xiao Hu looked like he was watching the show in front of the carriage, guessing in his heart, the host must have wanted to show Xu Taiwei a little color, they came, but that was too much. Wei also don't want to be so safe.
The alarm bell rang, and all the guarding soldiers were mobilized, and there was chaos inside and outside the city gate. The city lord who governed Chixia City naturally immediately notified the biggest official here, Taiwei Xu, and the news was passed on layer by layer. Whip coming.
"The Eagle Commander is here! It's the Eagle Commander who is here to arrest people!" The city guard held up his trousers, with disheveled hair, just because his belt was cut off and his hat and helmet were knocked off. The savior arrived, excited.
A fast horse in the city led the way, followed by a few people, but the guards all looked at No. 1 in front of them. The sky was high and the clouds were wide. A murderous air rushed towards the face, the summer was hot, and the heat wave was rolling, as if it also carried a saber air.
As soon as he pulled the reins, the white horse raised its hooves, and rushed into the battle formation in an instant. Nangong Cang Ao's reputation was well-known, and he was greatly respected by the soldiers. When they saw him coming, they all gave way, "Commander Ying! The suspect is here!"
"Who said he was a suspect?!" The thunderous voice fell from the head, Nangong Cang Ao yelled sharply, and the audience fell silent for a moment, and those who did the work were all stunned. Isn't Yingshuai here to help arrest someone?
The eagle eyes were like knives, and he looked into the crowd one by one. The soldiers swept by his eyes were all shocked, and the weapons in their hands fell to the ground one after another. Nangong Cangao looked cold, and turned back to Xu Donglin who rushed over and asked: "Xu Taiwei ,How is this going?"
Xu Donglin's head was covered with sweat, he wiped his forehead with his sleeve, and hurriedly explained, "Ying Shuai said that Jun Zhanran knew where the thing was, so I asked him to come and ask him, what's going on now, I also I don't know!"
"You treat him as a suspect, and you want people to pay attention?" Looking at him with a half-smile, Nangong Cangao saw through Xu Donglin's thoughts at a glance.
"...This...isn't it?" Xu Donglin thought about sending Lin Qiuyan to the Wulou to ask for a picture of a beauty. Afterwards, he found that the Blood Jade Linglong had disappeared with Lin Qiuyan. After Lin Qiuyan was caught, the Blood Jade Linglong had disappeared. I guessed in my heart that the Blood Jade Linglong was here with Jun Zhanran.
She went to Wulou, and then things disappeared from her body. Isn't he a suspect?Who is?
Anxious to find the Blood Jade Linglong, Xu Donglin was even more affirmative after hearing Nangong Cangao's words, and immediately acted. Although the invitation was passed down by word of mouth, he had already regarded Jun Zhanran as a prisoner when he talked to the people below. There will be such a fuss.
"Of course not." Nangong Cangao smiled boldly and unrulyly, but when his face sank, it was as cold as a piece of ice, and no one dared to look directly at him, "Not only is he not a suspect, but he can help you find your things nobleman."
There was a crowd of people at the scene, and Xu Donglin didn't know what they were talking about, but Xu Donglin was startled and broke out in a cold sweat.
Xiao Hu snorted, "Finally someone is not blind."
Luo Qian put away his sword and returned to the side of the carriage. No one moved around in the city or outside, waiting for a result. Nangong Cang Ao got off his horse, approached the carriage under the eyes of everyone, and raised the curtain, "I wanted to invite you to come Come to help me investigate the case, but now I have wronged you, Zhan Ran, are you all right? Nangong hereby apologizes to you."
Who has heard that Yingshuai apologized in public, and all the troublemakers stretched their heads, wanting to meet the owner of the fog building who can make Yingshuai apologize, but only saw a shadow in the carriage, covering half of the light green long clothes, a Said in a lukewarm voice: "So this is Taiwei Xu's way of hospitality."
Others couldn't see it, but Nangong Cangao could see the people in the car, leaning on the cushion, looking quite relaxed, although there was no anger in his eyes, but no smile, a thin blanket covered his waist Next, it seems that he just took a nap, his black hair was loose, and he was a bit lazy, which was different from what he had seen before.
Nangong Cang Ao's eyes could not help but pause, and his voice also stopped.
Jun Zhanran raised his eyes, and was surprised to hear Nangong Cang Ao call him by his first name, "What is Yingshuai looking at?"
"I haven't seen you for a long time, and your demeanor is even worse." Nangong Cang Ao said with a smile, but there was no coldness in his eyes, and he leaned over to block the door of the carriage, and also blocked the countless sights looking outside, "It's me who is asking you , if you don’t mind, come to the city with me, and only then can you repay you for the good wine and food that day.”
There is a large population in Chixia City, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians on the market, which is extremely lively.
