Chapter 66 Bait

Li Xu walked over slowly.

Zhou Yue's eyebrows raised in excitement. After not seeing each other for so many days, Miss Xu should know the benefits of having them by her side.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yue cleared her throat and said: "Mrs. Pinghou's master and servant never left the house, but the place where the fire broke out was the woodshed in the post house. It can be seen that they were not the ones who set the fire.

I just asked Mr. Zhao, and Mr. Zhao told me about this matter. He was very strict with his servants, and he was afraid that something would happen again, so he asked the post office servant to guard the door, and he himself

Another confidant was sent to watch the night. The place where the servants of the Zhao family lived was far away from the woodshed. It was really not easy to set the fire quietly.

Now it seems that only the Song family from the southeast has some suspicion. How come they happened to live in this post house, and they happened to catch the spy sent by Mrs. Guangping Hou. Your Excellency should order someone to carefully investigate the Song...

…Song Chengxuan.”

After Zhou Yue said this, a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.

The surroundings were peaceful for a while.

Li Xu had a smile on his lips and seemed to be holding something in his hand.

Wang Yun seemed to be thinking about something.

Xu Qinghuan sighed for a while and then said: "Master Zhou is the queen of the generals?"

Zhou Yue nodded as if she didn't know him.

Of course he is...

"Mr. Zhou, have you been to the military camp?"

"Been there," Zhou Yue said, "Although my father left early, when I was fifteen years old, my mother sent me to the army for training, where I met Jiulang. Unfortunately... my mother was seriously ill, and I

I had to return home to serve, and then by chance..."

Zhou Yue's eyes lit up when he thought of this. If it weren't for this, he would have become a famous general.

"So that's the case," Xu Qinghuan said, "That's no wonder..."

Zhou Yue didn't understand what this meant.

Xu Qinghuan looked at Li Xu: "Master Li, please show Master Zhou what you have in your hand!"

Although the object in Li Xu's hand was badly burned by the fire, it could still be seen that it was an arrow.

Xu Qinghuan pointed to the house where Mrs. Guangping Hou lived: "The window directly faces the woodshed. Place kerosene and other materials in the woodshed in advance. When you want to set a fire, you only need to light an arrow and shoot it directly into the woodshed.

Just hit it."

Feng Chu next to her finally understood and nodded fiercely: "No wonder after the eldest lady asked Mr. Zhou if he was a famous general, when the two armies faced off, he wanted to set a fire on the other side's city, but Mr. Zhou could still be so pissed off.

Can’t you just run away?”

Zhou Yue's face turned red. He really didn't expect this.

Xu Qinghuan said: "Since Mrs. Guangping Hou is a spy, she must be keenly aware of changes in her surroundings. It is natural that she is afraid of accidents and has made arrangements in advance to escape if necessary."

Li Xu handed the arrow in his hand to the Yamen: "Miss Xu, do you think there are any other doubts about this case?"

Li Xu's eyes were calm and clear, like a mirror that could reflect people's light. However, when everyone looked in, all they saw was their own shadow, and they couldn't see what he was thinking about.

Xu Qinghuan said: "In my opinion, this case is very clear. Duogan wanted to harm the Marquis of Guangping through his wife. Fortunately, we discovered it. Now the spy is buried in the sea of ​​fire. I'm afraid many details cannot be explained. That's right.

That's why we have to go to Beijing to make it clear, so that the Marquis of Guangping will not be wronged for no reason."

Zhou Yue did not dare to speak casually.

Li Xu looked at Xu Qinghuan, the corners of his mouth still raised slightly, as if there was no change.

Wang Yun frowned: "Miss Xu means..."

"The Marquis of Guangping has fought for the country for many years. He has sacrificed so much and saved so many people. Without him, there would be no stability in the northwest. Now that the Marquis is in trouble, we naturally want to help," Xu Qinghuan said and looked at Wang Yun, "

Mr. Cai also said that he has been friends with Marquis Guangping for a long time, and he should know the Marquis's desire to serve the country better than we do.

Without Marquis Guangping in the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is equivalent to losing an arm. This must never happen. Our move is also a petition for the people, and Marquis Guangping cannot be allowed to suffer any further injustice."

Wang Yun nodded: "If the case is indeed like this, even though Marquis Guangping is not wrong, he cannot escape the crime of negligence."

"The Hou family has paid the price for this. The prince's untimely death is heartbreaking." Xu Qinghuan glanced behind him subconsciously.

"This matter needs to be verified." Li Xu followed Xu Qinghuan's gaze and saw that there were only woods behind her and no one could be seen. "When was the prince killed by the fake Cui family and where is the body? I heard that not long ago

The prince has also made military exploits in the northwest."

"According to Young Master Li, everyone is a suspect," Xu Qinghuan turned away and looked away from Li Xu, as if he was extremely disgusted with what Li Xu said, "My father and the Marquis of Guangping were framed one after another, isn't it clear? This is simply true.

Duo Gansi's plan to frame Zhongliang, if the great Zhou Xungui is accused of such a crime, the people will be disappointed in the great Zhou, and they will not be able to win the trust of the people, and civil strife will inevitably occur."

"The Marquis of Guangping has been guarding the border in the northwest for so long, yet he is still suspected by others," Xu Qinghuan looked directly at Wang Yun, "After my lord escaped from Duogansi back to Dazhou, he must have been interrogated many times by the court. It was obviously for

Although I am loyal to my country, yet I still suffer such humiliation, I feel aggrieved for you."

Wang Yun seemed to have had a scar opened by Xu Qinghuan. He frowned slightly, but quickly returned to normal: "When I handle a case, I will never let anyone be wronged in vain."

Xu Qinghuan saluted Wang Yun: "I have to rely on you, sir."

Looking at Xu Qinghuan's leaving figure, Zhou Yue couldn't help but said: "Miss Xu has changed. She used to focus on the case, but now she seems to be interested in protecting the Marquis of Guangping. Mr. Wang just said a word, and she mentioned Mr. Wang's presence in Duo.

Regarding Gan Si’s imprisonment, it seems that whoever does not speak for Marquis Guangping will...become...a bad person instead."

Li Xu naturally noticed the changes in Xu Qinghuan.

This change is indeed a bit strange.

Just when I thought of this, in the woods where Xu Qinghuan was looking, some horses galloped over, followed closely by a carriage that looked simple but not gorgeous.

All the horses are rare and good horses, which shows that this person came from a wealthy family.

"It's Mr. Song," Yi Cheng immediately stepped forward to report to Wang Yun. "Last night, several of my soldiers and I almost fell into the sea of ​​​​fire when we were putting out the fire. Thanks to the help of Mr. Song, we were able to escape."

Wang Yun nodded, was it him that Miss Xu was looking at just now? At Miss Xu's age, she shouldn't have asked about his past in Duogansi. It was obvious that someone had revealed the information to her.

Miss Xu's unusual behavior today should also be related to him.

Wang Yun remembered that Sun Chong reported to him about Song Chengxuan.

"Master Song received a letter from Prince Guangping and headed to the northwest."

What a coincidence.

From the southeast to the northwest, it appears here again.

Wang Yun ordered Sun Chong: "Call Master Song here for a talk."

Song Chengxuan led his people back to the vicinity of the post house. As soon as he appeared in front of everyone, he felt the hostility coming from his back. He knew that Wang Yun would definitely be wary of him, but he did not expect it to be so strong.

It's like someone is adding fuel to the fire.

If you want to catch the criminal, you have to lure him to do it again. It seems that he has turned into a wriggling earthworm without realizing it, just waiting to attract a big fish to take the bait.

Song Chengxuan looked in the direction of the Xu family's carriage and horses, his eyes becoming much deeper.

…………………………………………

Miss Xu dropped a fat earthworm, patted her butt and left...
