Things are obviously not going according to common sense.
In the military camp, Zhao Shoubei saw Qi Heng who was unconscious.
It was not that he had never thought of capturing this core figure of the Qi family. He even laid an ambush in the grassland and wanted to kill him secretly.
But Qi Heng was too suspicious and it was difficult to control the route. Once the Zhenbei Army failed, it would be chaos.
And now it's like a dead dog lying on the ground at the mercy of others.
Zhao Shoubei looked at the other people on the ground. Mr. Yu pointed at two of them and said, "My lord, these two people are from the Di tribe, and they are consistent with the figures mentioned in the intelligence."
Zhao Tinglei's eyes lit up: "Has Mr. Yu been sure?"
The old man in gray affirmed: "Originally, the Third Young Master brought back the exact information, and important evidence could be found about the Qi family's slave trade.
Now that Miss Song has brought these people, asking for the confession that the lord wants, the matter is basically half done!"
Zhao Tinglei banged the table excitedly: "Okay, let's take that...Miss Song, right?
Call Miss Song over. I want to thank her very well, and I will give her a pass and a reward of a thousand taels of silver!"
Mr. Yu coughed lightly and lowered his eyes: "Master, I'm afraid that Miss Song doesn't want to see you!"
He had inquired carefully, and Miss Song had sent her a greeting card yesterday, but the people in the backyard said, "The guards have gone down to the Yamen, and they are gone!" There was no reply.
After hearing this, Mr. Yu was so angry that he stamped his feet several times.
Those who serve the lord are confused. Miss Song always sees the lord in the dark, so she must have something important to do.
Not to mention that Lin Qingyuan is here, as Miss Song is the fiancée of the third young master, she should be treated with courtesy.
However, now that Miss Song has brought the person the lord needs most to his door, the lord doesn't seem to understand the seriousness of the matter.
This Miss Song is his military sister-in-law, the "noble girl of the Di clan" who trapped Qi Heng in Hecheng, and now she wants to reward her with money!
Seeing that there was obviously something wrong with Mr. Yu's expression, Zhao Shoubei, who was in excitement, finally realized: "Old Mr. Yu, this Miss Song you are talking about..."
"This Miss Song is the third young master's fiancée!"
Mr. Yu hit the nail on the head, "Last night Miss Song came to the door to ask for a meeting with the Lord. Why didn't the Lord see her?"
"When did it happen?" Zhao Tinlei looked confused.
At this time, Song Liyun was sitting in the military camp, still dressed as a noblewoman of the Di tribe, drinking fresh milk tea.
Song Dekui looked back and forth at the door several times, and said anxiously, "I wonder if Abu and Fool Lin ran out?"
Before the two of them escaped from the city, it was already in chaos, and they didn't know what the city would be like after they found out that Qi Heng was missing.
Song Liyun was also a little worried, even though Fang Zheng had already led people to rescue him.
It takes three people to deal with that large group.
Two fists are no match for four hands, and there is Lin Qingyuan, a sluggish hand who has no power to restrain a chicken...
Song Liyun sighed after thinking about it. If Zhao Tinglei could cooperate with him earlier, why would he take such a big risk?
Thinking this in my heart, I naturally lost my temper: "The famous Zhao Qianhu is nothing more than this!"
"presumptuous!"
There was a loud shout outside the room, which scared Song Dekui, who was turning around to talk to Song Liyun, to tremble.
Even Song Liyun almost lost his tea bowl.
Song Liyun looked up and saw a middle-aged general striding over.
Behind him were Fang Zheng, Guo Tong, and several generals who seemed to have high status.
Song Liyun put down the tea bowl and stood up.
Zhao Tinlei came in with a hesitant expression.
He was fully expecting to see a sassy female general, but what he saw was an ordinary woman leaning forward while drinking milk tea and full of complaints.
"A gangster appeared in Hecheng last night. Miss Song was able to capture him and made a great contribution. I always reward you based on your merits, so now I will reward you with five hundred taels!" Zhao Tinglei said with a dark face, not smiling at all.
When Song Liyun saw that official matters were required, he did not refuse: "Thank you, Lord Guard, for the reward. It is the duty of every citizen to serve the imperial court!"
She was so open-minded that Zhao Tinglei was speechless for a moment.
In his opinion, if he wanted to reward him with silver, Song Liyun would say polite words like "I'm a family, you're welcome!"
I will take advantage of the situation and explain what happened last night.
But now Song Liyun took the money directly without saying a word about the invitation, which was even smoother than a soldier like him.
After an awkward moment, Zhao Tinglei flicked his sleeves and stood up to walk out. He walked past Song Liyun but stopped again: "You are very good! Very good! Very good! However, smart people should do smart things and don't act smart!"
After that, he left like a gust of wind with the group of officials who were confused by the monk Zhang Er.
Song Dekui stared at those people walking away, and it took him a long time to realize: "That person is Ah Shi's eldest brother, the general of the Zhenbei Army, and the defender of the whole city?
Why is your temper so bad?
Xiaoyun, fortunately Ah Shi has a good face. If you were such a black-faced man...tsk, tsk, tsk, I would advise you not to agree to this marriage..."
"Cough cough cough!"
Just as he was talking nonsense, someone coughed again outside the door. Fortunately, it was not a word of "unbridled", which only made Song Dekui turn his head sharply.
Song Liyun pursed her lips and sighed: The military camp is really not a place where you can have a good chat. People always appear out of nowhere.
An old man in gray clothes came in with Fang Zheng. Fang Zheng was holding a tray with ten ingots of bright silver in it.
The old man chuckled at first: "This little brother is right. My general has a dark face. He is a master at protecting his family and country with a long spear in his hand. He has gone through many hardships. Naturally, he is not as handsome as the third young master."
Song Dekui was not afraid of the embarrassment of being overheard behind his back. He laughed and laughed at himself: "Everyone knows that Lei Qianhu's Lei Ziying is the master of victory. I just said a few nonsense. Don't take it to heart."
Mr. Yu stroked his beard and smiled, and said nothing more about this issue. He just pushed the silver over and said, "Little brother, please accept the silver bonus that the general said for Miss Song!"
Song Dekui was dissatisfied with Zhao Tinlei's attitude just now, but now his eyes lit up.
Although the black-faced general was not likable, everyone liked the money.
After he happily took the silver from Fang Zheng's hand, Mr. Yu bowed his hands to Song Liyun and saluted: "Miss Song, I am Yu Guang, the clerk of the garrison. I admire you very much for your righteousness towards the girl!
But there are still many things that I don’t understand, I wonder if the girl can answer the old man’s questions?”
This is to ask questions on behalf of Zhao Tinlei!
Mr. Yu was humble, and Song Liyun was naturally polite: "Old Mr. Yu, please sit down. This little girl is just doing a small job for the people of Hecheng, and it's not worth mentioning! If there's anything you don't understand, Mr. Yu, just ask!"
She wanted to explain the matter clearly and remove Lin Qingyuan from the conflicts in the Lin family. Otherwise, she would not have sent him to visit him at night.
So, in a friendly atmosphere where the two asked and answered questions, Song Liyun explained the relationship between Lin Qingyuan and the Lin family, the relationship between Lin Qingyuan and Zhao Tingduo, the reason why the Qi family now wants to deal with the Lin family, and how Lin Qingyuan knew some of the Qi family's human trafficking cases.
The evidence was given one by one, but the process of how he caught Qi Heng was vague.
Mr. Yu frowned when he heard this. He didn't care about arresting Qi Heng. He only heard the words about the Qi family's human trafficking.
This is what they want to know right now, but they didn't expect it to be at their fingertips!
Thinking of Lin Qingyuan and the other two people who were still locked up in the garrison, Mr. Yu couldn't sit still.
For some things, you still need to ask Lin Qingyuan in person to know.
