Chapter 16: Night Trial Old servant

As night falls, the mist is dark. Luoyang City seems to be shrouded in a layer of gauze. The people in the city light up candles, but the lights of thousands of families cannot dispel the thin mist.

At this moment, there are people who have fallen asleep and those who have toss and turn and cannot fall asleep. At this moment, Zhou Bo, who is sitting in front of the window, is one of the people who cannot fall asleep. He is wearing a white cloth and his eyes are empty. I don’t know that he is missing his own adults.

He was killed and was still thinking about other things.

As a servant of Si Tianjian, the Qin County Magistrate did not make things difficult for them and placed him in a normal interrogation prison. Instead, he arranged two simple inn rooms for his rest.

After rushing to finish the simple supper prepared by the Qin County Magistrate, Ling Changfeng and Xiaolan pulled Xiaoyu, who was reluctant to leave the fish, and accompanied a small official, they took a carriage to the inn to rest.

When Xiaolan saw Ling Changfeng closing her eyes and thought, she knew that she was considering how to interrogate the servant of the royal palace later, she did not disturb her young master, but just teased Xiaoyu on her own.

The post station is located in the southwest of Nanhe County, just a cup of tea from the government office. After a while, the sound of horse hooves stopped. The clerk bowed outside the carriage and said, "Sir Ling, the post station has arrived. You and Miss Xiaolan

You can go in and rest, and the cost inside has been arranged."

After Ling Changfeng walked out of the carriage, Xiaolan said to the little official: "If you have any luck, you can go back first. Let's go in here by yourself." The little official said no, and got on the carriage and disappeared into the night.

.

Ling Changfeng and Xiaolan stood in front of the station. Although they were prepared in their hearts and knew that the station would not be repaired frequently, they would inevitably be a little dilapidated. However, what the two of them did not expect was that the imperial station located in the prosperous Luoyang could be even

So worn!

A dilapidated building with two floors above and below, with four or five rooms, built in a row. The rooms on the ground floor were built with stones for nearly 1 meter. There was a dirt wall above. The stones were a little black and the dirt walls were mottled.

There are no more doors. The walls of the second floor room are made of wooden boards and are all black. I am afraid there is a risk of collapse if I accidentally fall.

Ling Changfeng thought to himself: This post station is indeed as Qin County Magistrate said, extremely simple! He thought he was just polite. He exclaimed in his heart that he had been fooled.

When Xiaolan saw this scene, she said angrily: "Young Master, this Qin County Magistrate is such an honest man, Humph! If I didn't know this was a post station, I would have thought we were sent to the black shop."

Ling Changfeng smiled and walked into the station with a tough bullet. Xiaolan followed closely, and even Xiaoyu raised her round head vigilantly and kept looking around.

The inn room was obviously carefully arranged by the Qin County Magistrate. The simple washing tools, tables, chairs, and wooden beds inside were newly purchased and were incompatible with the surrounding environment. Apart from these, nothing else was included.

If it weren't for interrogating Zhou Bo overnight, Ling Changfeng and the others wouldn't have lived here no matter what.

After asking the small officials at the post station, Ling Changfeng knew that the old servant of the royal palace was resting next door. After sorting out his thoughts, Ling Changfeng pushed open the shaking wooden door and saw the old servant sitting alone in front of the window.

, looking at Luoyang City in a daze.

Hearing a "creak", the old servant looked back. His two red eyes were still with tears and their faces were wrinkled. When he saw a handsome young man standing outside the door, he was holding a cat behind him.

woman.

He quickly stretched out his sleeves, wiped his tears, and asked, "Dare you dare to ask the young master to come to visit late at night, are there anything you need to find the old servant?"

The two outside the door were Ling Changfeng and Xiaolan. Seeing that he was not asleep, Ling Changfeng was still wearing mourning clothes on his body, he knew that the old servant had a deep affection for Lord Wang. He came up with a plan and smiled at him.

The old servant bowed and said, "I am in Ling Changfeng, I really have some urgent matters to ask you, Uncle Zhou."

When the old servant saw him calling out his name, he knew in his heart that the young man was coming for his elders, and said coldly: "I wonder what Lord Ling is asking about when he is visiting late at night? I will interrogate the old servant tomorrow morning, why should he mobilize the troops so hard?

The old servant doesn’t know anything about my adult murder. Please go back early to rest.”

Seeing that his attitude was cold, Ling Changfeng did not retreat. Instead, he stared at the old servant and smiled and said, "I don't come for the murder of Lord Wang, I just want to talk about Lord Wang's past experience." After that, he said nothing.

After entering the room, I wanted to sit down, but looked around but there was no extra stool, so I had to give up.

When the old servant heard this, his pupils shrank and his body shook slightly. He said slowly: "What's the difficulty of my master's past experience? The court's archives record are included, so Lord Ling can check it out by checking it yourself."

Ling Changfeng did not respond, but said, "Mr. Wang has always been an honest official, loyal to Your Majesty and the country all his life. I feel extremely sad when I suffered this sudden disaster. What's more, I was the first to discover that Lord Wang died

I'm afraid that in the dark, Lord Wang also wants me to find out the truth behind the scenes."

Seeing Ling Changfeng's sincere expression, Zhou Bo's expression calmed down a little, he said, "I want to remind you that this matter is not that simple. If you insist on doing it, I can help you. I hope you won't regret it.

.You want to know what my adult experiences?"

Seeing that he had relaxed his vigilance, Ling Changfeng hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said, "I know this matter is very involved, but in order to repay the truth to Lord Wang's relatives, this matter has to be done! Please see what this is?"

After saying that, he stretched out his palm, and the black jade ring was in his palm!

When Zhou Bo saw this, he immediately reached out and picked up the black jade ring, looked at it carefully, rubbed it gently, and tears fell like rain, and he kept saying "It's it" and "It's it".

After a long time, Zhou Bo sighed and said slowly: "Since you have found this thing, it seems that my master is really guiding you in heaven. It is the token of the royal family of Loulan in the Western Regions, and it is also something that my master wants to protect." After that,

He handed the ring to Ling Changfeng and continued, "Since you have found it, you can keep it in place. Maybe it can be used in the future."

Ling Changfeng and the others were quite surprised when they heard this. Ling Changfeng thought to himself: This Lord Wang is actually the Loulan royal family that has disappeared for decades. How could he serve as the Sitianjian in our dynasty?

Xiaolan couldn't help but ask, "Boe Zhou, since Lord Wang is the royal family of Loulan, why did he come here to serve as the Sitianjian? Moreover, the Loulan Kingdom had disappeared decades ago."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Bo nodded and said, "I will say it if you don't ask. This matter is a long story. I was a general in Loulan State back then."
