Crying sounds could be heard in the house, and the whole Gao family was filled with gloom.

"Sir, madam, they are all fine. They passed by Zhishi Song's house and were stayed overnight."

An aide whispered.

Gao Lingbo sat holding his knees and crying.

"Why did Fourteen follow?" he said, "Didn't you tell him to stay where he was?"

Having said this, he suddenly raised his hand and overturned several cases.

The staff in the room couldn't help but take a step back.

"Where were those people? Where were the people who followed him? How did they look at Shi Shi? Did they just go and watch Shi Shi die?"

"The fourteen officials did not go, we all acted according to your instructions, sir." Another said anxiously, "They just took a detour to visit old friends and waited on the other side, and did not personally participate in the robbery.

"

"I know that although my fourteen is ridiculous, he still behaves obediently." Gao Lingbo cried.

Fourteen, his fourteen.

"My lord, my lord, the fourteen officials were robbed and killed," the aide said.

"When I rushed over, more than 20 people were already dead." The person who came to report the news knelt on the ground and said tremblingly, "Looking at the scene at that time, many people were chasing and killing more than 20 people.

The injuries were different. The junior official was shot through the throat by a dart and died. I don’t know how many people were on the other side. The junior official didn’t dare to stay and came back immediately to report the news.”

Throat piercing...

Is there anything in the world that is more tragic than hearing the death of your son with your own ears?

Gao Lingbo cried again.

"We are checking who it is..." a staff member said in a low voice.

"No need to check." Gao Lingbo cried, "Is there anything else to check? Isn't this obvious?"

Whoever you want to kill will want to kill you.

This is an opportunity, your opportunity, and it must also be an opportunity for others.

Gao Lingbo suddenly raised his head.

"Not good!" he said, his face suddenly changed with grief.

………………………………

The Qingyuan County Magistrate sneezed violently.

The gradually brightening morning light dissipated the chill of the night.

But looking at the scene in front of him, the county magistrate felt cold and trembling all over.

The corpses have been sorted and carried by the roadside, and people are covering them with white cloths or mats one by one.

Originally, the government rarely did this, but because he knew in his heart the background of the person he was going to face this time, he summoned him, thinking that it was somewhat decent and that he was doing his best.

At this time, what was placed in front of the magistrate was a corpse that had not been covered with a mat. The corpse's clothes were messy and covered with blood. The thick head had a ferocious look, which showed the pain before death.

"High...high..." The county magistrate clenched his teeth together and uttered a vague word.

"Master?" the attendant on the side asked in confusion.

Why did the master suddenly change his expression?

Are you frightened by seeing so many corpses?

It must be that since arriving here, the master has been evasive, seeming to want to look but not daring to look. He boldly looked over, but was finally frightened.

If this corpse was still alive, how many people would wish to kneel down and kiss his feet instead of showing the contempt and disgust they have at this moment.

These people didn't even know who the body was.

How could these handymen recognize such an aloof person? It would be a blessing to meet him once.

Such a condescending person, how much money and favors did he have to pay just to meet him once, and yet he got such a good filler after only one meeting.

Such a person turned into a corpse?

That’s not right, that’s not right, that’s not what you said?

"….What a vicious horse thief….He is so bold…."

The yamen servants who received the instructions put their hands on their waists and shouted indignantly.

no no!

The Qingyuan County Magistrate shouted suddenly.

The sound of horse hoofbeats could be heard in the distance. Everyone looked up and saw a group of ten people running towards them.

"Who are you?" the yamen officer who was standing outside and responsible for maintaining order shouted, raising his sword and trying to stop him.

The speed of the visitor did not slow down. He raised his hand and whipped the yamen servant aside.

"Qingyuan County!" The leader looked angry and pointed at the trembling Qingyuan County Magistrate, "What are you doing? Who asked you to come?"

Who asked me to come?

Didn't you ask me to come?

The Qingyuan County Magistrate looked at the people on the horse, a little confused.

The sound of gongs and drums could be heard in the distance.

"...The government is chasing down murderers and horse thieves, and the rest are avoiding..."

The sound of gongs and drums gradually faded away, making the entire sky brighter.

The faces of everyone immediately became even more ugly.

"Go to your mother's Qingyuan County!" Someone swung the whip and whipped it down hard, "How did I tell you at the beginning? You are not allowed to move unless I call you! What the hell are you doing now! My little official was robbed by the enemy.

Kill, not be robbed and killed by horse thieves!"

The Qingyuan County Magistrate fell down after being whipped. Everyone around him was stunned, and no one dared to step forward.

"My lord, my lord." The Qingyuan County Magistrate got up and shouted to the people waiting on the horse. He stretched his hand and pointed backwards, "It was your people who called me last night at midnight... He is here..."

He turned around and saw that except for the government servants and his own servants, there was not a single unfamiliar face around him.

The boy who came to report the news with the Gao family's token disappeared at some point, as if he had never appeared.

not good!

be cheated!

It was not only the high-ranking and junior officials who were robbed and killed, but also myself.

The Qingyuan County Magistrate knelt down with a puff.

"No!" he shouted tremblingly, pointing in one direction, "Quick, hurry up and chase..."

Chase the person who went to Jingzhao Mansion to report the news!

Hurry up and chase him! Chase him back!

…………………………………………….

A horse galloped, splashing mud and water on the road.

With a whoosh, a long arrow shot straight into the neck of the man on the horse. The man fell down without even a grunt. The frightened horse turned around and ran back, neighing.

Three people appeared from behind the big tree by the road and walked over quickly. One of them took off his clothes from the fallen yamen servant and put them on. He took out a letter from his arms and opened it to confirm what he saw in the dim blue light.

He put away the bright red seal of Qingyuan County Government with confidence, got on his horse and galloped away.

The remaining two men dragged the yamen servant to the roadside, threw him into the pit that had been dug, quickly filled it in, and rode away.

The east turned white, and the heavy city gate of the capital slowly opened with a few creaking sounds.

There were already many people waiting in front of the city gate. As the city gate opened, there was a surge of people.

"Why are you squeezing?" the city guard yelled angrily and picked out a few that looked unpleasant to his eyes for inspection.

Zhou Hui led this group of armored soldiers and went straight in.

There was a shop selling tea soup at the gate of the city. It was a night shop, and the stalls had already started to be closed in the early morning. Zhou Hui got off his horse and sat over.

"This official..."

"Master Xiao Zhou?"

The boss of the tea soup shop and the soldiers all raised questions.

"I'll just have a bowl of tea soup, nothing else." Zhou Hui said, this was to the boss.

He looked at the soldiers again.
