"Well, what happened to the last thing you said?"
"You mean the people in Sanhu mountain? It's estimated that it's enough. I've been drugged and started to kill each other. Tut Tut, there are only one or two thousand people. Maybe there are not many left to live now. "
One or two thousand? Do you mean those officers and soldiers under general Yu?! How can they downplay such a cruel thing! Xue Ting twisted his brows and listened to their next words.
It seems that the lives of the two generals are safe for the time being. Tielao and gangzheng are not mentioned, but the clue also follows.
What's the origin of these two people? Did you come to disclose the information on purpose and lure them to sanhushan?
Fortunately, in Gongjiang before, Jinzhan left two tubes of smoke and charcoal. That night, Pei Xiao turned the window and threw it into the next room. He watched with his own eyes all night to make sure they didn't make any fake moves.
Around dawn the next day, Pei Ming and Xue tingji just sneak into the next room, and with their good skills, they just wake them up.
In the smoke of the two look dull, let alone fight back, even can't guard against, know without saying to sell their own bottom.
In fact, they didn't know anything about it. They just took other people's money and talked about sanhushan around Kezhou.
Do not need to be more deliberate, if you see with a servant, bearing unusual young couple, especially more revealed two mouth on the line.
Xue tingji and Pei Ming look at each other, and they are really aiming at them. The calculation of the time is in line with the node when Gongjiang reports to Qicheng and Liu releases the news.
Even It's not impossible that information is being leaked there.
"Is the story of sanhushan true or false?"
"I don't know The words are made up by the people who pay for them. We just read them
Pei Ming pursed her lips tightly and kept silent for a moment. Even if it was a fabricated speech, she didn't dare not take it seriously. "How can we go to sanhushan?"
They thought, "in The south side of Qi city. "
No more questions. Pei Ming sighed deeply, rubbed his right shoulder and gave Xue ting a successful but helpless look. "It seems that our leisure is over."
That night, they prepared to go on the road. The road ahead was dangerous. Originally, they wanted to leave nameless behind, but he insisted, "I want to know who I am. No matter how hard it is, I also want to see with my own eyes the retribution of the people who made me unable to return home."
After some weighing, Pei Ming agreed. Since he was rescued, he should be responsible to the end.
Before leaving, she said goodbye to the landlady. She was worried about them. "Do you really want to go?"
Xue tingji nodded. They got the message that there is a mountain road to avoid the official road. It should be no problem to fumble carefully.
The landlady didn't say anything more. I wish them a safe journey. "We common people have no ability to fight against those big families. I hope you can help us. We don't ask for anything else. We just want to live in peace."
This is the most simple wish of a common people. As a monarch, Xue tingji is not happy. He is duty bound to return a pure land to his people.
"Don't worry, no matter how hard it is, my wife and I will get justice for you."
The mountain road mentioned by the two people was not easy to find. Several times, they either lost their way or nearly slipped down the mountain. It was day and night that they finally turned into Kezhou.
After entering Qi City, even the air seems to become thin. This is the home of the Liu family and the heart of the treacherous Kezhou. At this moment, they may have been exposed to Liu's eyes.
But face to face with the enemy, they calmed down instead. Instead of asking about sanhushan, they chose to go to the prefect's residence first.
It's dark now, and it's a good time to sneak around. Pei Xiao of Jinzhan is protecting the unknown outside. He should pay attention to whether he is monitoring the prefecture. Xue tingji and Pei Ming should observe clearly on the eaves before moving.
It's not seven or seven, but it's a little strange.
"Too few people." Xue tingji frowned and said, "even though there are not many concubines, the head of a state, his wife, children, and servants, how can he have hundreds of people."
But it was still early to go to bed. There were only three or four servants in the backyard, and there were only one or two rooms with lights on. What I didn't know thought it was an abandoned house.
Pei Ming also saw something was wrong. He felt the position of the study, raised the tile to peep into the room, and then frowned.
"It's empty. It may be that they seized it and took it away. They are going to find out the evidence of collusion with Liu. It's also possible that..."
Xue tingji said in a deep voice: "it was destroyed by the Liu family."
If this is the case, it is hard to say whether Tai Shou Tian took the initiative to collude with the Liu family or was forced by the local snake Liu family, and whether he was involved in the peddlers' business and drug addiction.
If it is the latter, it can explain why the house is so deserted.
Family members close to the prefect can be witnesses, so they can't stay. As for whether they live or die, I'm afraid they have to go to sanhushan to find out.But even if he was forced to cooperate, he could not get rid of the crime of acting for the tiger without telling the court!
There are few people in the family, so it is impossible to be on guard. After receiving the instructions, Pei Xiao and Jin Zhan slip into the backyard with no name. After seeing no one, they casually open a room door.
So blatant into the room really scared nameless, empty voice asked, it doesn't matter? You'll find out if you light up in the evening. Do you want to search for clues in the dark?
But Xue tingji laughed, "who said it's looking for clues? It's so late. We should have a night's sleep and clean up tomorrow. "
No one knows. Where are they staying tonight?
After asking, but no one answered, but to see everyone's face with a smile, let him gape.
"No, it can't be here."
"Otherwise..." Xue tingji hugged his arms and laughed. His eyes reflected the faint cold light. "Can you find a safer place?"
is hiding in the residence of the dead monk in the place full of Liu's eyeliner. This decision is bold, but it is the wisest.
There are few people here, but there are many empty houses. They can make a slow investigation unconsciously, so as to find out what secrets are hidden in this deserted house.
In this way, they successfully stay in the prefect's residence. Taking advantage of the night, Pei Ming and Xue tingji search in other rooms. Unfortunately, they can't find any useful clues, but one thing catches Pei Ming's attention.
The prince, who had a close relationship with a powerful family, had a very simple residence, but the only paintings were not simple.
These works are not the works of famous artists, but fortunately, she knows a little about calligraphy and painting. From her brush strokes, she can see that these landscapes are full of elegance and quiet.
But that's exactly how it goes against the rules.
"It seems that the prefect Tian is a clean and virtuous man. It's not like he was afraid of being embarrassed and gave in to the evil power of the squires. I always feel that The relationship between him and Liu may not be as simple as we think. "
Maybe there is something unknown about the dead prefect
