Chapter 13: Why did the Imperial City Division appear?

The three of them searched the grass and found no signs of a fight.

Qin Shaobai was unwilling to give in and took a small stick to check it carefully again.

He pulled out a golden tassel pendant.

The pendant is not big, it should be attached to some kind of waistband.

"Wait a minute." Xiao Shan suddenly grabbed the pendant, his eyes widened and his body trembled inexplicably.

"Brother Xiao, what's wrong with you?"

Qin Shaobai's first reaction was that Xiao Shan had been poisoned.

But seeing that although his face was pale, the color of his lips was normal and there were no signs of poisoning, I felt much relieved.

"Captain Qin." Xiao Shan was trembling a little as he spoke. He didn't know if he was too scared and bit his tongue.

"Brother Xiao, please stop calling me Qin Tou so politely. I'm a year or two younger than you. You can call me Shao Bai or Qin Tou."

Qin Shaobai's polite words did not calm Xiao Shan's expression much. He still trembled with his lips: "Qin Tou, I have seen this pendant before."

Qin Shaobai was overjoyed, but he heard Xiao Shan spit out word by word: "This pendant is the pendant on the waist badge of the Imperial City Division. The reason why the pendant is yellow is the emperor's special favor for the Imperial City Division.

.”

Qin Shaobai felt his forehead heat up. He had also heard of the Imperial City Division.

It was the same institution as the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty. It was dedicated to serving the emperor. It could be said to be the highest criminal investigation institution.

Most movies and TV shows say that the Jinyiwei are powerful and scary. But they don’t know that the Imperial City Department of the Song Dynasty was an organization that was even more frightening than the Jinyiwei.

The Imperial City Division never needs a reason to arrest people.

When the Imperial City Division kills people, they never need to pay with their lives.

Especially in the Southern Song Dynasty, the emperors relied too much on the Imperial City Division, making the Imperial City Division almost become a major official family of the royal family, which also created the unscrupulous viciousness of the Imperial City Division.

Qin Shaobai couldn't figure out why Drunk Arhat was just a thief. How could such a simple case be related to the Imperial City Division.

"Let's close the team first. Let's go home and have a cup of hot tea. We will continue to look for clues tomorrow. Remember, no one can say anything about this pendant." Qin Shaobai was so anxious that he forgot that he was in the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty

The head catcher will not say the word "close the team".

Fortunately, Xiao Shan and Li Xian were also immersed in the shadow of the Imperial City Division and did not hear Qin Shaobai's slip of the tongue at all.

The three of them walked down Yanshan Mountain. Qin Shaobai put the pendant into a bag and stuffed it into his arms.

"Qin Tou, should we go back to the Yamen or..."

Qin Shaobai looked at the sky. Although it was noon, the sun had already hidden. There seemed to be a few dark clouds in the sky. It looked like it was going to rain.

"Everyone is tired too." Qin Shaobai said to the gathered police officers, "I will give everyone a half-day vacation today. Go home and take a bath and spend more time with your family. Starting tomorrow, we may have a game

A tough battle is about to be fought."

After everyone dispersed, Qin Shaobai took out the pendant again.

He really didn't understand why the Imperial City Division appeared in this case.

Royal Family, a smiling face suddenly appeared in his mind.

Yes, Princess Chaoyang must be relatively clear about royal matters.

Qin Shaobai stuffed the pendant back and walked quickly towards Yuan Tower.

On the way from the foot of the mountain to Yuanlou, he didn't pass by Qin Shaobai's current home, but by some strange combination of circumstances, he slipped through the door of his home.

The house given to Qin Shaobai by Princess Chaoyang is not very big, but it is very exquisite.

Pushing open the courtyard door, you can see a yard divided into left and right sides. On the left is a piece of bamboo, and on the right is a small rockery. There is a small pavilion next to the rockery, and various orchids are now placed around the pavilion.

There are four rooms behind the yard, the middle one is the living room, the one on the left is occupied by Qin Shaobai, and the two rooms on the right are occupied by the two girls and Luo Baotou respectively.

Qin Xiaowan is watering the orchids with Xiaolan.

Xiaolan whispered and seemed to be talking to Xiaowan.

"Dad." Qin Xiaowan looked up and saw Qin Shaobai.

She was so happy that she couldn't put down the wooden spoon in her hand, so she rushed over and threw herself into Qin Shaobai's arms.

Qin Shaobai picked up Qin Xiaowan and kissed her little face, making Qin Xiaowan giggle.

"What are you doing? Is Sister Xiaolan teaching you how to grow orchids?"

"No, no, sister Xiaolan is teaching me to recite poems. Dad, I will recite them to you."

Qin Xiaowan broke away from Qin Shaobai's hand, stood upright, and carried it on her back with a sweet voice: "... My old friend is so close, I have recently become Hu Yue, and I will send you green orchids, and I will continue to benefit you."

Qin Shaobai knew that this poem was written by Li Bai. When he heard the last two sentences, Qin Shaobai's heart stung for some reason.

His old friends are all 800 years later. Even if they are admiring the same orchid, they cannot get together.

"Brother Qin." Xiaolan walked over and asked Qin Xiaowan to play aside, "Brother Qin, is there something on your mind?"

"It's okay, I just think it's great to have you here. Xiaowan can learn Tang poetry and memorize Song lyrics. This is what a girl's family is like."

Xiaolan burst into laughter: "Brother Qin, your ideas are different from others? Shouldn't it be serious for girls to embroider and grow flowers?"

Qin Shaobai smiled awkwardly and looked for Qin Xiaowan in a blink of an eye, only to see that the little girl had already picked up a bamboo branch and waved it beside the bamboo forest.

"Xiaowan, be careful."

"It's okay, Brother Qin. This is the Green Branch Sword I taught Xiaowan. It's mainly for self-defense."

Qin Shaobai then remembered that Xiaolan also had martial arts skills.

He couldn't help but think about his jumping off the cliff today. When he told Xiaolan, Xiaolan laughed again.

"Brother Qin, do you think anyone can enter the secret room in our Yuan Tower? That secret room is inaccessible to many martial arts masters even if they want to. The Ice Bird Formation is actually to practice your Qinggong skills, and there is something in the hot spring

It’s a good medicine for strengthening your body and enhancing your power. Just soak it in it for a while and it’s more effective than eating a few ginseng sticks.”

I see. In this case, I still have to find a reason to go to the secret room.

Xiaolan knows a lot of things, and she deserves to be Princess Chaoyang's personal maid.

By the way, why don't I ask Xiaolan about the Imperial City Division?

Then I thought again, no, Xiaolan has left Yuanlou, she is a simple woman now, we can't drag her into this bottomless whirlpool again.

"Lan'er, I have something to do to see Master Song. You will take care of everything at home." Qin Shaobai said, and was about to leave, but stopped again, "Where is my father-in-law? Where has he gone?

?”

"Oh, I saw that Capt. Luo was really bored at home, so I asked him to go find someone to play chess on the streets."

Qin Shaobai immediately felt ashamed.

It can be said that his father-in-law took the initiative to make way for him. If he hadn't made a new head catcher, Luo Baotou would have been able to work as a head catcher in glory for several years.

But that’s fine. Luo Baotou has lost his beloved daughter for so many years, and now he can enjoy his old age with his granddaughter. It is also a great blessing in life.
