Maung-mei is wrong
Chapter 13
Zhuo Yingxian was stunned, seeing that his expression did not seem to be fake, suddenly he didn't know how to proceed.
"I don't shame much, but I also don't like messing around with people. Although the matter of love has nothing to do with me, I still cherish it in my heart and don't want to blaspheme." Nie Yunhan said lightly, "My father died in battle On the battlefield, my mother died for love, and the elders didn't leave me any valuable property, they just taught me what loyalty is by their own actions."
"Loyalty to country, loyalty to lover, loyalty to self."
When Nie Yunhan said this, there was a glint in his deep eyes, and his expression was extremely solemn.
"Sorry." Zhuo Yingxian was a little panicked, "I just wanted to make a joke."
Nie Yunhan looked at him and said with a smile, "Those who don't know are innocent. It's because I have selfishness. I don't care what others think of me, but I don't want to be treated as that kind of person by you. Okay, don't talk about me. Just now you said to help me." People run errands, what kind of work do they do on weekdays?"
Seeing him change the subject, Zhuo Yingxian heaved a sigh of relief, as if to make up for it, he answered all his questions: "It's just to help some shops or big families send some valuable things between the two places. Usually they are small items or valuables. For jewellery, I’m afraid of being lost when looking for a post station, and it’s troublesome to find an escort agency. In short, it’s not convenient enough, so I took advantage of this loophole. At first, everyone didn’t trust it, but after doing it for a long time, I also have a little reputation.”
"But why when you ask about Yun Xuzi's apprentice, no one knows your name?"
Zhuo Yingxian said embarrassingly: "Master is obsessed with alchemy and everyone knows it. I am afraid that if I say he is his apprentice, people will worry that I will embezzle their property. People who often come to Taoist temples only know my Dharma name, so I only use my own name when I go out." Common name."
"Is this the one now?" Nie Yunhan asked with great interest, "Zhuo Yingxian? Who got it for you? What's your legal name?"
"My family name is Zhuo, and I didn't have a big name. My master gave me the word 'Ying Xian'. People in the Jianghu don't pay attention to it, and they didn't take it when they were weak. Although I didn't convert, but since I recognized my master, he also took it for me. According to the pedigree of the sect, it is called Xiaoyun."
"Zhuo Xiaoyun, it sounds good too." Nie Yunhan muttered to himself.
When they arrived at the county yamen, Zhuo Yingxian flashed Tie Hewei's badge, and the yamen guards at the gate rushed to welcome them into the yamen, and rushed to report to the county magistrate.
They rarely saw any high-ranking officials in this small place, and they came here as the emperor's personal guard. Naturally, they were so frightened that they didn't know what to do, and they didn't have the vision to distinguish the identity of the other party.
When the county magistrate saw Zhuo Yingxian, he almost knelt down, but was stopped by Nie Yunhan, and he didn't dare to look up when he stood up, and kept looking at his feet to answer.
"I didn't know that the governor came, and the lower officials were far away to welcome me. It's a sin!" The old man's beard was raised, and his face turned pale.
Nie Yunhan winked at Zhuo Yingxian, telling him to stand dignified and speak for him.
Zhuo Yingxian understood, stood with his hands behind his back, and nodded slightly.
"Master County, don't be so nervous. Our lord is also going on tour this time, and we didn't release the news because we were afraid of scaring the snake." Nie Yunhan was very kind, "I don't want to talk nonsense, let's take a look at the case file of the disappearance of the old Daoist Yun Xuzi .”
As soon as the county magistrate heard this, he hurriedly ordered the servants around him: "Go and get the case file!"
The yamen servant ran very fast, and soon brought the case file. Just as he was about to hand it over with both hands, the county magistrate widened his eyes and said, "How do you do it? Read it to Mr. Zhuo yourself! The light in this room is not good, so don't make your lord tired." Focus!"
"That's unnecessary. The case of Yun Xuzi's disappearance is quite suspicious. The military department is very concerned about this old man, so I ask His Majesty to assist in investigating this matter. You need to check the case file yourself." Nie Yunhan snatched the case file from the yamen servant with a smile , "However, in order to keep your archives complete, we have to transcribe a copy and take it away."
The county magistrate knew that an official from the Ministry of War had visited last year and went to find Yun Xuzi. At that time, he was trembling and led people up Miaoyin Mountain. Hearing what Nie Yunhan said, he quickly said: "You can do whatever you want! You can do whatever you want!"
Then he hurriedly ordered the clerk under his command to transcribe the case files, and served tea to Zhuo Yingxian and Nie Yunhan, asking them to wait for a while.
During the waiting interval, the county magistrate was neither accompanying nor not accompanying him, but he stayed because of etiquette, and sat opposite the two of them, the chair seemed to have nails growing on it, twisting back and forth non-stop.
Zhuo Yingxian showed the aura of Tie Hewei, sitting quietly like a mountain, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
Nie Yunhan looked at the old county magistrate, and couldn't bear to let him suffer: "Master of the county, if you are in a hurry, go and solve it, don't hold it back."
"Yes, yes, thank you for your permission." The county magistrate jumped off his chair and trotted out of the main hall. At the door, he was heard ordering his subordinates, "Change the tea frequently. Don't neglect the Shangguan."
There were not many case files, and after a while, the county magistrate entered the hall with the booklet in his hand, and handed the booklet to Zhuo Yingxian with both hands: "Master Zhuo, the copy is finished, please have a look."
Zhuo Yingxian glanced at Nie Yunhan, and Nie Yunhan stood up pretendingly, took the document for him, and flipped through it: "Well, the handwriting is clear and well written. But..."
He seemed to have a laid-back attitude, but he went through the details of the case as he flipped through the booklet, and frowned.
Seeing his expression change, the county magistrate shuddered severely: "Is there something wrong?"
Nie Yunhan straightened his face, and his handsome face was instantly covered with a chill: "Is this case handled too hastily?!"
"This... I don't dare! But this disappearance case is really useless! There are only so few clues, and it is really difficult to find out." The county magistrate repeatedly bowed, "What should I do, please tell me clearly."
Nie Yunhan bowed his hands to Zhuo Yingxian: "Lord Zhuo, why don't you ask the yamen servant who handles the case to come and ask you carefully?"
Zhuo Yingxian's small face was straight, and he nodded coldly: "En."
The county magistrate bent even lower, and did not dare to let go of his arched hands: "My lord, please wait a while, and the next official will call for someone!"
Nie Yunhan added in time: "The evidence involved in the case is also presented!"
The county magistrate's waist was almost bent like a shrimp: "Yes! Yes!"
After a while, the head arrester who was in charge of handling the case and several arresters rushed into the hall. Everyone was sweating profusely. It seemed that they were handling the case outside and came back as soon as possible after receiving the order.
A few yamen servants came in with them, holding a few trays with some paperwork and trivial items on them.
The county magistrate introduced their identities to Zhuo Yingxian and Nie Yunhan, and then Nie Yunhan asked, Zhuo Yingxian walked to the evidence with his hands behind his back and looked carefully.
No wonder the master's room was so clean, all the things were brought to the county government office by the yamen servants.However, these objects were only stained with blood and used as physical evidence involved in the case, and they did not provide any clues in themselves.
Zhuo Yingxian stretched out his hand to pick up the booklets that Master usually wrote, but they were actually just records of medicinal nature. According to what had been discussed before, he took one out to read, and then pointed at Nie Yunhan.
Nie Yunhan understood and nodded to him.
The investigation history provided by the head catchers was also lackluster. They didn't know that Yun Xuzi had any past and present contacts with the Duyu people, so naturally they had no clue to trace it.After listening to it, Nie Yunhan thought it was useless, so he waved them away.
The county magistrate observed that Zhuo Yingxian and the two looked unhappy, with layers of sweat on their foreheads, trembling almost to the point of fainting, Nie Yunhan patted him on the shoulder reassuringly, the old man shivered, and almost passed out. fall.
"Don't be nervous, something strange happened, it's really hard to find out, I don't mean to blame you." Nie Yunhan smiled, took the booklet in Zhuo Yingxian's hand and flipped through it, "This looks like the alchemy scripture written by Yun Xuzi, can we Can't take it away?"
The arrester who handled the case had already left, and the county magistrate didn't remember whether there were any alchemy scriptures in the evidence. He only knew that the superior should not be offended, so he said in a loud voice: "Yes, yes, yes! If you have any requests, the lower officials will do their best to cooperate. .”
"Nothing else for the time being." Nie Yunhan stuffed the brochure into his arms, and cupped his hands at the county magistrate: "Farewell."
The county magistrate personally sent Zhuo Yingxian and Nie Yunhan to the gate of the county government office, and Nie Yunhan pulled the old man to say goodbye at the gate for a long time.
The old county magistrate had been nervous all morning, and now he was exhausted physically and mentally, his brain was not working, and the polite words in his stomach were not enough, so he could only listen to Nie Yunhan babbling, and nodded like a chicken eating rice.
Zhuo Yingxian stood aside, with an extraordinary appearance, pretending to look up at the weather, and looked around the eaves, but found nothing unusual, then scanned the gate of the county yamen from the corner of his eye, and there were people coming and going In the past, when he looked at it, he didn't see anything unusual.
Nie Yunhan pointed to the alchemy scripture in his arms, and said to the magistrate, "Yun Xuzi's disappearance must be related to this alchemy scripture. Before that, the adults of the Ministry of War valued him because of this. Now let's take it back and study it. Maybe something will be discovered, thanks to the county magistrate for providing clues."
The county magistrate was too frightened by his thank you, and bowed again and again: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, this is what a subordinate official should do."
"That's it, county magistrate, please stay."
The county magistrate looked around, but he didn't see any horses or carriages, so he was a little puzzled.
Nie Yunhan explained: "The post station is not far away. My lord and I came here on foot, and we can feel the atmosphere of Wenzhou city by the way. Your magistrate, you have managed well here. If the emperor knows that you have worked so hard, he will be very happy. "
"I am ashamed to be an official! This is the duty of a courtier, Lord Nie, don't mention it again." The county magistrate suddenly received a compliment, and his heart was full of joy, but he still had to be humble. Seeing that Zhuo Yingxian and Nie Yunhan were traveling easily, he said , "Why don't you send a few yamen servants to follow the adults to wait for orders?"
Nie Yunhan waved his hand: "No need, I will come to you to transfer people if necessary."
Zhuo Ying next to him "cough coughed" in a timely manner, Nie Yunhan pretended to be nervous, and whispered to the county magistrate: "My lord is a little impatient, I really have to go, please stay."
When the county magistrate heard that Tie Hewei was impatient, he didn't even have the courage to say goodbye to Zhuo Yingxian, so he bowed deeply and couldn't get up for a long time.
Nie Yunhan walked up to Zhuo Yingxian and said with a smile, "Master Zhuo, let's go."
The two of them walked a long way, seeing that Zhuo Yingxian was still trying to look around from the corner of his eye, Nie Yunhan couldn't help but smiled: "Don't look, if you, an ordinary person, can see it, then you won't be called a spy."
Zhuo Yingxian couldn't help worrying: "I don't know if the other party has taken the bait."
"They have been lurking near the Qingxin Temple for so long, and they just followed us to get the clues to the secret room. Naturally, they must pay close attention to our every move, and they will definitely fall into the bait." Nie Yunhan has a plan in mind.
"Brother Nie, I don't know how court officials do things on a daily basis. In Tangzhou Mansion, I brought the holy edict, but in the county government, they will believe my identity just because of my badge?" Zhuo Yingxian felt that he was pretending too much. It went so well, I can't believe it.
Nie Yunhan sneered: "So what if you don't believe it. After all, you call yourself Tie Hewei and you have a badge in your hand. Even if they can't tell the truth from the fake, they don't dare to make things difficult for you, so as not to appear that you have never seen the world. Besides, we It is nothing more than an insignificant disappearance case, and the county magistrate has no reason not to cooperate."
"But Song Mingchong really believed my oracle?" Zhuo Yingxian looked at Nie Yunhan, and asked the question he had been holding back for a long time, "You saw me through at the first sight, and he would have no doubts about me? "
Nie Yunhan pondered for a moment: "Song Mingchong is actually quite deep in the city, and I can't see through him for the time being. But he has a good relationship with Han Fang, the previous commander of Tangzhou Mansion, and he is more kind to me, and he let me go so easily. Presumably not the enemy."
He said this ambiguously, and it was also to comfort Zhuo Yingxian. In fact, he himself was not sure about Song Mingchong's situation. If he didn't say anything else, he was suspicious of Song Mingchong's refusal to show him the oracle.
Seeing that Zhuo Yingxian was still worried, Nie Yunhan patted him lightly on the shoulder: "Since that's the case, don't worry about those 'ifs' anymore, just take one step at a time."
Zhuo Yingxian nodded: "What to do next?"
"Go back to the inn and make a fake alchemy. If the enemy's spies see something, they have to confirm it before taking it away. You have to scare them." Nie Yunhan said with a smile, "You even changed the oracle to look like it , it should be easy to make this alchemy scripture that no one else has seen before, right?"
"Buy a blank booklet that is exactly the same. I can write some gunpowder recipes from memory. It's just that it needs to be a little old. It's not difficult." After all, the matter of revising the sacred edict is not seen in the light. These heretics are really not worth mentioning."
"There is nothing wrong with the skill itself. If you want to use it to deceive and deceive, you are a peerless bastard. If you use it to do good deeds and righteousness, it is the right way." Nie Yunhan said softly, "Don't put any shackles on yourself, you are half dead from exhaustion. Feeling sorry for you?"
Zhuo Yingxian's heart was warmed by his voice, and he raised his head to meet his gentle eyes as black as dots of ink, inexplicably relieved, and smiled at him.
In fact, I did not learn this "counterfeiting" skill on purpose, but my master Yun Xuzi loves to delve into these messy market skills. Zhuo Yingxian learned it from the sidelines, but never used it. He secretly changed the emperor's handbook, This is the first time, I didn't expect to play a big game as soon as I played it.
He was so anxious to take Nie Yunhan away in Tangzhou Mansion back then, because he was afraid that Song Mingchong would see the clues. He was even ready to go to jail and rob prisoners, but he didn't expect the trip to go so smoothly. .But it's useless to worry about it, as Nie Yunhan said, don't worry about things that didn't happen.
The two went back to the inn, and Nie Yunhan waited for him to change into his official uniform, then joined several other people and had lunch in the lobby.During the period, Zuo Hengqiu talked about what he saw and heard about going to Changfeng Street last night, which aroused Xiang Yushu's envy.
"Don't tell me, the songs sung by the girls in the Chunyi Building are really nice. They are upstairs through the railings, playing the pipa and humming softly. My heart is drunk, Zuo Hengqiu." Grinding his teeth, he sighed again and again, "The makeup powder in the Zuihuan Pavilion next to it is also fragrant, and it is really fragrant when blowing the wind. Even the girl standing at the door soliciting customers is so fresh, it must be more beautiful inside."
Xiang Yushu said: "Then why didn't you go in?"
"I don't know which one to get in. I'm in a dilemma. Hahahaha! I just wandered around. I'm afraid that if I get into this one, I'll miss that one. It would be a big sin to let down the beauty. Just don't provoke any of them!" Zuo Hengqiu smiled obscenely, and drew Wan Lifeng's eyes.
Listening to their chat, Nie Yunhan noticed that Zuo Hengqiu's right ear suddenly moved, and he glanced at the table next to the wall from the corner of his eye.
He pretended to look over casually, and found a person sitting there, dressed like a porter, dressed in an ordinary black coarse cloth shirt, was fishing for noodles with his head down.
"Sure enough, I took the bait." Nie Yunhan curled his lips into a smile that could hardly be traced.
The author has something to say:
Ah Xian should be flashing...
"I don't shame much, but I also don't like messing around with people. Although the matter of love has nothing to do with me, I still cherish it in my heart and don't want to blaspheme." Nie Yunhan said lightly, "My father died in battle On the battlefield, my mother died for love, and the elders didn't leave me any valuable property, they just taught me what loyalty is by their own actions."
"Loyalty to country, loyalty to lover, loyalty to self."
When Nie Yunhan said this, there was a glint in his deep eyes, and his expression was extremely solemn.
"Sorry." Zhuo Yingxian was a little panicked, "I just wanted to make a joke."
Nie Yunhan looked at him and said with a smile, "Those who don't know are innocent. It's because I have selfishness. I don't care what others think of me, but I don't want to be treated as that kind of person by you. Okay, don't talk about me. Just now you said to help me." People run errands, what kind of work do they do on weekdays?"
Seeing him change the subject, Zhuo Yingxian heaved a sigh of relief, as if to make up for it, he answered all his questions: "It's just to help some shops or big families send some valuable things between the two places. Usually they are small items or valuables. For jewellery, I’m afraid of being lost when looking for a post station, and it’s troublesome to find an escort agency. In short, it’s not convenient enough, so I took advantage of this loophole. At first, everyone didn’t trust it, but after doing it for a long time, I also have a little reputation.”
"But why when you ask about Yun Xuzi's apprentice, no one knows your name?"
Zhuo Yingxian said embarrassingly: "Master is obsessed with alchemy and everyone knows it. I am afraid that if I say he is his apprentice, people will worry that I will embezzle their property. People who often come to Taoist temples only know my Dharma name, so I only use my own name when I go out." Common name."
"Is this the one now?" Nie Yunhan asked with great interest, "Zhuo Yingxian? Who got it for you? What's your legal name?"
"My family name is Zhuo, and I didn't have a big name. My master gave me the word 'Ying Xian'. People in the Jianghu don't pay attention to it, and they didn't take it when they were weak. Although I didn't convert, but since I recognized my master, he also took it for me. According to the pedigree of the sect, it is called Xiaoyun."
"Zhuo Xiaoyun, it sounds good too." Nie Yunhan muttered to himself.
When they arrived at the county yamen, Zhuo Yingxian flashed Tie Hewei's badge, and the yamen guards at the gate rushed to welcome them into the yamen, and rushed to report to the county magistrate.
They rarely saw any high-ranking officials in this small place, and they came here as the emperor's personal guard. Naturally, they were so frightened that they didn't know what to do, and they didn't have the vision to distinguish the identity of the other party.

Zhuo Ying next to him "cough coughed" in a timely manner, Nie Yunhan pretended to be nervous, and whispered to the county magistrate: "My lord is a little impatient, I really have to go, please stay."

"Buy a blank booklet that is exactly the same. I can write some gunpowder recipes from memory. It's just that it needs to be a little old. It's not difficult." After all, the matter of revising the sacred edict is not seen in the light. These heretics are really not worth mentioning."
"There is nothing wrong with the skill itself. If you want to use it to deceive and deceive, you are a peerless bastard. If you use it to do good deeds and righteousness, it is the right way." Nie Yunhan said softly, "Don't put any shackles on yourself, you are half dead from exhaustion. Feeling sorry for you?"
Zhuo Yingxian's heart was warmed by his voice, and he raised his head to meet his gentle eyes as black as dots of ink, inexplicably relieved, and smiled at him.
In fact, I did not learn this "counterfeiting" skill on purpose, but my master Yun Xuzi loves to delve into these messy market skills. Zhuo Yingxian learned it from the sidelines, but never used it. He secretly changed the emperor's handbook, This is the first time, I didn't expect to play a big game as soon as I played it.
He was so anxious to take Nie Yunhan away in Tangzhou Mansion back then, because he was afraid that Song Mingchong would see the clues. He was even ready to go to jail and rob prisoners, but he didn't expect the trip to go so smoothly. .But it's useless to worry about it, as Nie Yunhan said, don't worry about things that didn't happen.
The two went back to the inn, and Nie Yunhan waited for him to change into his official uniform, then joined several other people and had lunch in the lobby.During the period, Zuo Hengqiu talked about what he saw and heard about going to Changfeng Street last night, which aroused Xiang Yushu's envy.
"Don't tell me, the songs sung by the girls in the Chunyi Building are really nice. They are upstairs through the railings, playing the pipa and humming softly. My heart is drunk, Zuo Hengqiu." Grinding his teeth, he sighed again and again, "The makeup powder in the Zuihuan Pavilion next to it is also fragrant, and it is really fragrant when blowing the wind. Even the girl standing at the door soliciting customers is so fresh, it must be more beautiful inside."
Xiang Yushu said: "Then why didn't you go in?"
"I don't know which one to get in. I'm in a dilemma. Hahahaha! I just wandered around. I'm afraid that if I get into this one, I'll miss that one. It would be a big sin to let down the beauty. Just don't provoke any of them!" Zuo Hengqiu smiled obscenely, and drew Wan Lifeng's eyes.
Listening to their chat, Nie Yunhan noticed that Zuo Hengqiu's right ear suddenly moved, and he glanced at the table next to the wall from the corner of his eye.
He pretended to look over casually, and found a person sitting there, dressed like a porter, dressed in an ordinary black coarse cloth shirt, was fishing for noodles with his head down.
"Sure enough, I took the bait." Nie Yunhan curled his lips into a smile that could hardly be traced.
The author has something to say:
Ah Xian should be flashing...
