Zhan Zhao and colleagues are walking in Shasha

East Road is bounded by Changshan Mountain in the east, the Yellow River in the west, Dizhu in the south, and Yanmen in the north. Seventeen prefectures including Lan, Constitution, Feng, Lin, and Fu;

Shizhou belongs to Hedong Road. It is located in the middle of the Luliang Mountains, surrounded by mountains, ravines, and loess beams and hills. The terrain is high in the east and low in the west, and there are mountains and hills.

And on this high loess slope, the most prosperous place is Shizhou City, where the prefect's yamen of Shizhou is located.

In the spring of the first year of Kangding, it was the season when the grass grew and the warbler flew. These days, Shizhou City is full of festive and lively scenes.The main road was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the restaurants and teahouses were overcrowded, but it was for a great joy.

It turns out that Lin Ying, the son of Lin Liangcheng, the governor of Shizhou, married the daughter of Jin Charlie, the transshipment envoy of Hedong Road, and held a banquet in the city to entertain guests. .For a while, everyone from the old man with the old head to the children with the yellow mouth came to join in the fun and want to be happy.

However, outside the noisy crowd, there were two people sitting in a small pavilion on the far mountain.One of them is the bridegroom officer that everyone admires, Lin Ying; the other is Qin Tong, the only daughter of Qin Xu, the magistrate of Shizhou.

Lin Ying was a young man in his early twenties. He was wearing shorts in blue at the moment, with a bow, arrow and protective gear at hand, and was wiping the sweat off his face with a handkerchief.Qin Tong is also dressed in men's hunting clothes. She has been naughty and mischievous since she was a child, and always likes to dress up as a boy and go out to make trouble.Her father failed to discipline her several times, so in the end he had to raise the daughter as a boy and was used to lawlessness.

"If uncle knows that you and I go hunting in the mountains on this happy day, he will have to sue me in front of my father, saying that I have delayed your marriage." Qin Tong sat leaning against the red lacquered wooden pillar in the corner of the pavilion , while checking the iron bow in his hand, he casually said to Lin Ying.

Lin Ying snorted, and said: "I'm free and idle now, and I just listen to his nagging when I go home. He has a crush on that concubine of the Jin family, but I don't care."

Qin Tong raised his head and glanced at Lin Ying with a half-smile, and said, "After you get married, you won't think so. I heard that your lovely wife is gentle, virtuous, well-educated, and she is a rare good girl." Besides, not everyone can afford to be a fortune-teller, do you know how many people in the city are envious of your blessing?"

"If you like it, why not let me give it to you?" Lin Ying replied angrily. These few words of Qin Tong were exactly what his father liked to say when he heard them, and he felt angry when he heard them.

Qin Tong couldn't help crying and laughing when he heard Lin Ying's answer, and hurriedly said: "Let's forget it, I can't bear it, and people also look down on me, a little government arrester."

Feeling upset, Lin Ying threw away the things in her hand, got up and went to pull Qin Tong: "Come on, let's go around the mountain again, maybe we can meet some wild deer."

Qin Tong waved his hands again and again, and said, "This is impossible. It's almost noon. If you don't want to be skinned by your old man's cramps, you should go back quickly to take a bath and change clothes, and get ready to welcome the bride tomorrow. I finally took a day off to take a bath." , I don’t want to apologize to your father.”

As soon as Lin Ying threw her hand, her face was faintly angry: "Are you going or not? If you don't, I will leave alone. You won't have any share in getting good things!"

Qin Tong said "Hey", seeing that Lin Ying really turned around to leave, he could only pick up the guy and chase after him, and sighed: "Why do you say you are doing this? Knowing that your father doesn't like you to hang out with me, you still insist on disobeying him .”

"What kind of friends I make is my own business, what has he to do with him? The friends he wants me to make are a group of ordinary people, who only have power in their eyes, and they are full of money." Lin Ying couldn't help but feel even more angry when she thought of the experience of being ridiculed and neglected before. Annoyed, "He doesn't know what people are saying about him behind his back. He's stalking people, stepping on the high and flattering the low, how ugly and ugly the words are, and he is trying to curry favor with those people, but he doesn't believe me when I tell him. Curse."

Qin Tong was listening, and couldn't help but sighed: "The son never blames the father, no matter how you say it, you shouldn't offend him."

"Why did I offend him?" Lin Ying snorted, "I will do whatever he wants me to do. He wants me to marry Miss Jin's family, and I am also ordered to marry. What dissatisfaction does he have?"

Qin Tong shook his head when he heard that, and didn't want to expose what kind of mess he was at home at that time, but said: "Anyway, getting married is also a happy event, you should be more happy."

"I'm not happy," Lin Ying's face darkened, "Why should I be happy? Just because of that submissive woman who even speaks like a mosquito?"

Qin Tong was silent for a while, then sighed: "Don't talk about her like that, if she is a tigress and yells and curses at you all day long, would you be happy?"

Lin Ying had nothing to say, so her face became more serious, and she strode deep into the forest without saying a word.Qin Tong was short and couldn't keep up for a while, so he yelled a few times and saw that Lin Ying ignored him, so he had to speed up to catch up.

Just as he was about to catch up, he suddenly heard a faint voice, and it was Qin Tong who was calling.Lin Ying and Qin Tong stopped at the same time. Qin Tong listened carefully for a while, his face darkened, and said, "It sounds like a brother in Yali. I'm afraid something happened." Head over there.

Lin Ying had no choice but to turn around and follow, spit: "It's really bad luck, you said that it was wrong for you to leave a good young master, and why did you do such a lowly job? Uncle is really used to you."

"I'm going to take a rest today. They wouldn't have come to see me if it wasn't a major event." Qin Tong avoided answering, but said, "I'm afraid there was a murder case, or..." She thought about it, but couldn't think of it. What else has caused people to come here.

Sure enough, the person who came was the servant of the yamen. He seemed to be rushing all the way, and he was still a little out of breath. When he saw Qin Tong, he rushed over and said, "My lord, it's easy to find a lowly job! You go back quickly." Well, the master sent people to look for you early in the morning, and almost ransacked all the land in the city."

Qin Tong's heart sank, and he hurriedly asked, "Why, what happened? Father is so eager to find me?"

The yamen servant shook his head in panic, and said: "Several visitors came suddenly this morning. I think the master is very polite to them. He only said a few words and then came out and ordered someone to look for you. He said that he must find you and told you to hurry up." Return to Yamen."

Qin Tong couldn't figure it out, so he had to turn around and apologize to Lin Ying: "Brother Yinghua, I'm really sorry, it seems that I can't accompany you to hunt another wild deer today."

"It's okay." Lin Ying frowned tightly, "Since uncle called you, let's go back quickly, don't make him wait for a long time."

As they spoke, several people hurried down the mountain and headed towards the city of Shizhou.Fortunately, when they came, they were all on horseback, so they didn't have to worry about the strength of their feet. They only had to have a meal before they could vaguely see the gate of Shizhou City.Qin Tong was worried about something, and after entering the city, he only bid farewell to Lin Ying hurriedly, and then hurried to Zhizhou Mansion with his fellow yamen servants.

Along the way, Qin Tong kept thinking about what Ya Cha said.Her father received several distinguished guests, and then sent someone to look for her.What is it for?If only those distinguished guests wanted to meet the "Young Master" of Zhizhou, her father would definitely not be so anxious, and even sent people to search the whole city.

Could it be for official business?Thinking this way, Qin Tong strode into the mansion through the corner gate, and just turned around the Wanzi corridor, he bumped into the butler head-on.As soon as the old man saw her, he recited Buddha's name one after another: "Oh, my little ancestor, you have come back. The master has urged you more than ten times. Hurry up, Kucha hastened to wait for the young master to change clothes. The master is in the Yazhai living room. Receiving distinguished guests, I'll be waiting for you."

Kucha is a servant in the house, and he often follows Qin Tong on weekdays.It's just that Qin Tong has always been free and unrestrained and doesn't like to be restrained by others, so he always leaves him to go out alone.It is said that it is a long-term follower, but there are actually very few times when Kucha can serve Qin Tong. In addition, he grew up beside Qin Tong, and the two are about the same age. Qin Tong treats him like a younger brother.

Right now, Kucha was like a headless fly, and followed Qin Tong into the inner room of the east chamber in a daze.Qin Tong put the bow, arrow and dagger on the table casually, and asked him, "What's wrong, why did my father look for me?"

Kucha trembled all over, and the clothes in his hand almost fell off. Qin Tong quickly reached out to take it, and while changing it, motioned him to fetch some water so that he could wash it off.

Only then did Kucha come to his senses, and while taking down the copper basin, he said, "My lord, a distinguished guest from the house..." He hesitated as he spoke, his eyes dodged, "It seems, it seems that a high-ranking official from Tokyo came to Shizhou for inspection. ..."

Qin Tong narrowed his eyes: "You're from Bianliang, why are you in a hurry to see me?"

"It seems..." Kucha stared blankly at Qin Tong, "It seems to be for a case you handled earlier. I saw Granny Li together with those distinguished guests. Tell me, could it be that Granny Li hated you for arresting her?" Son, Shangjing... Shangjing sued you?" He couldn't help shivering as he spoke, "My lord, what should I do?"

Qin Tong was startled, and then remembered who Kucha said about Granny Li.It was a homicide case a few months ago.Boss Huang, an antique dealer in the city, died at home. After investigation, she concluded that Li Qing, the only son of Granny Li, had killed the murderer due to grudges.This person was sentenced by her father to be beheaded in autumn, and he is still in prison to this day.

Qin Tong changed his clothes while thinking, while Kucha frowned: "My lord, what can you do if that high-ranking official from the capital makes things difficult for you?"

"If there is nothing wrong with this case, how can he come to make things difficult for me?" Qin Tong said so, but he had no idea in his heart, fastened his clothes and adjusted his clothes, and said to Kucha, "When the time comes, you will wait outside, don't Come in." After saying that, he pushed open the door and strode towards the living room of the Houya meeting room.

During this journey, I felt uneasy. The servant waiting outside the hall saw Qin Tong coming, so he rushed in to report.Qin Tong calmed down outside the hall, and when she was called inside, he walked inside.

In the hall, her father was talking with a majestic old man in casual clothes. The first thing Qin Tong saw was not the old man's dark complexion and the crescent-shaped scar on his forehead, but the old man standing Beside him, there is a tall and elegant person.
