The Golden Age Chapter 617: Like the moon hazy

When Qin Xiao returned to the governor's mansion, it was still dark.

Pan Weixing did not summon them immediately. The two waited outside the courtyard for a while before Pan Weixing let them pass.

It's just that something is wrong today, and Pan Weixing actually waited in front of the door in person.

The governor is the highest official in Suzhou. It is extremely rare for him to greet him at the door in person. Qin Xiao has never seen such a scene a few times before. What makes Qin Xiao a little strange is that the door is left and right. , There are actually two guards. The guards are not dressed as the guards of the Assassin's Palace. They are dressed in gray clothes, and both guards have a black mask on their faces, which looks gloomy. Feel.

Qin Xiao faintly felt that something was wrong.

When Pan Weixing saw the two of them, his expressions were also very serious, and he asked softly: "How are things going?"

"None of the Taoist priests of Tai Xuan Guan could get away." Ma Xingguo whispered: "My lord, we...!" As he was about to report in detail, Pan Weixing raised his hand to stop, and glanced around. To Qin Xiao said: "Qin Shaoqing, you come in with the old man. Xingguo, you are waiting outside."

Ma Xingguo was taken aback, and thought to himself that the commander of the operation tonight was himself, and he was also regarded as the confidant official of the Governor. If he wanted to report tonight's situation, he should go in and report it himself.

However, Qin Xiao had a life-saving grace for him, so naturally he no longer rejected Qin Xiao, so he arched his hands and did not dare to go in.

Qin Xiao was also a little surprised, but still followed Pan Wei into the house.

The lights in the room were very dim. Pan Weixing took Qin Xiao into the room and signaled Qin Xiao to stop. He walked to a screen and bowed and said, "His Royal Highness, they have already returned, and the ministers have already removed Qin Shaoqing. Please come in."

Qin Xiao was a little surprised at first, but when Pan Weixing called himself a "subordinate," he suddenly realized something and his face changed color.

After a period of silence, a figure slowly walked out from behind the screen, draped in a purple cloak, graceful, under the lights, I saw the man with phoenix eyes and willow eyebrows, in a peerless style, but with no anger and prestige Wei Yi, who could be Princess Musk Moon instead of Datang.

Qin Xiao opened his mouth with horror on his face.

He didn't expect that the princess would also come to Suzhou.

Sheyue glanced at Qin Xiao, walked to the edge of the chair, and sat down. Qin Xiao recovered, and immediately went forward and knelt on the ground: "Little minister Qin Xiao, pay homage to your Royal Highness!"

"Get up and talk." Sheyue's voice was as soft and lazy as ever. It seemed that there was nothing in the world to make her anxious, so she looked up and down Qin Xiao, then said: "Qin Xiao, you made this palace look at her with admiration. "

"The minister dare not." Qin Xiao stood up, looked at the princess's beautiful face, and cautiously said: "When will the princess come to Suzhou?"

Musyue smiled lazily, and said: "Neiku is stolen. From the beginning, this palace never thought about what you can find out. It just allows you to attract the attention of some people on the bright side. This palace personally personally Investigate." Seeing that Pan Weixing had come over with a cup of tea respectfully, reached out to take the cup, and said leisurely: "But the palace has not arrived in Suzhou, you have already found out the clues, the palace really underestimated you." /

Qin Xiao was startled, and then became a little angry in his heart.

It turns out that Sheyue never thought about letting herself from the beginning

To find out the case, in terms of time, I was just out of Kyoto on the front foot, and she was afraid to follow him on the back foot.

The Jiangnan Neiku case, she was going to intervene personally, let herself come to Suzhou, just as a cover, so that some people thought that Kyoto was only sending officials from Dali Temple to investigate the case. , The eyes of those people were naturally on themselves, and the princess came to Suzhou quietly, preparing to conduct a thorough investigation in secret.

Although he was angry in his heart, the other party was a princess, and he bluntly used himself as a gunman, but he didn't dare to say much.

"You don't have to feel uncomfortable in your heart." The princess put down the teacup and said lightly: "The Neiku side, the main palace has been there, and the main palace already knows the things you have found out. Wang Tang is yours. , He has reported the results of your investigation to the palace, but the palace did not expect that the theft of Neku started many years ago. You found out the truth in less than two days. Jiang Xiaochun didn’t even see it in a few years. Any clue, Jiang Xiaochun is a stupid pig in front of you."

"Jiang commander is in the game. The so-called authorities are fans, but you can't blame him all." Qin Xiao said respectfully.

The corner of the princess's lips made a faint smile, which made her already charming face even more charming, and said with a chuckle: "You are very good at being a human being, speak for him here. Have you got things?"

Pan Weixing stood aside with his hands down, looking blank, but Qin Xiao already understood what the princess said, and took out the secret letter from the body, which was obtained from the Wujian Pawnshop, and submitted it. After the princess took it, he took it out of it. On letter paper, Pan Weixing was very sensible, and hurriedly took the lamp and stood next to the princess, knowing that the principal read the letter and held the lamp for her.

"Let Qin Xiao handle the lamp!" The princess said lightly.

Qin Xiao came forward, took the lamp, and stood beside the princess. At this time, he was very close, and the unique fragrance from Musk Yue's body filled the air, refreshing.

After reading the letter, the princess said: "This is the letter that Wang Tang wants this palace to see?"

"Wang Tang is called Wang Hongcai in Suzhou City." Qin Xiao said softly: "Two years ago, Wang Hongcai wrote this secret letter and kept it in a black market pawnshop in Suzhou, but his plan was written as early as this. The letter has started before."

"Using an **** to **** a woman to send the pawnshop ticket number to Kyoto?" The princess put the letter aside, and a pair of hazy eyes glanced at Qin Xiao: "The content of this letter is true or false. ?"

Seeing that the princess had read the letter, Qin Xiao put the lamp on the case, walked back to the princess, and said, "All the signs that come later show that what Wang Hongcai said in the letter is indeed true."

"Wang Tang confessed the truth after he died, in order to let the palace let go of his brother." The princess had a chill in her eyes: "His family members are in Taihu Lake, he doesn't care anymore?"

"Neiku stolen the East Window incident, he has nowhere to go, and his use value has completely disappeared. In this case, his family members in Taihu were either directly killed by Linghuxuan or reduced to the Queen Mother's Club. No matter how bad the running dog is, there will be no good results. Only his brother in Kyoto, if it can be preserved, the Wang family still has blood. So he finally confessed everything to the princess in order to protect his brother, hoping to win Atonement. It’s just that the Queen Mother’s Association doesn’t trust him. Someone has been monitoring his actions. He can only use women to send information to Kyoto. Just in case, he hides the ticket number in the embroidered shoes." Qin Xiao thought Clearly said: "This is currently the only reasonable explanation."

There was a hint of approval in the princess's beautiful eyes, and said: "What do the subsequent signs mean?"

Qin Xiao thought about it for a moment, and then said: "The Taihu thief general Qiao Shenggong was arrested for murder. From his mouth, the confession he got was consistent with what Wang Hongcai said. In addition, last night, the Qian family in Suzhou hosted a banquet and an assassin appeared. After the assassination, the officers and soldiers quickly found the trace of the assassin. As a result, it was discovered that the Suzhou gentry Dong Yuan was a member of the Queen Mother's congregation. In his underground secret room, a secret letter between Dong Yuan and the Queen Mother Hui General Kuhai was found, which can also be determined. Linghuxuan is the bitter sea general of the Queen Mother's Club."

Pan Weixing finally said at this time: "From Qiao Shenggong's mouth, the internal response of the Queen Mother Society in the city was also tried. In addition to Dong Yuan, the Taoist Huang Yang of Tai Xuan Guan was also a member of the Queen Mother's congregation. These people conspired to attack and attack in Taihu Lake. When in Suzhou City, they responded from within the city. The old officials set out tonight to let Chang Shi Ma Xingguo and Qin Shaoqing lead the army to round up Taixuanguan. They just got the report that Taixuanguan has been wiped out, and the queen mother in the city will be spies and eliminated."

"Master Pan has worked hard." The princess sighed quietly: "The spies in the city were finally wiped out. Does Master Pan think this is a great achievement?"

Pan Weixing's face changed slightly, and he fell on his knees: "The old official dare not. The queen mother will be lurking in Suzhou for many years, and the old official knows nothing. The crime of oversight is worth death!"

"For these years, Neikucuyin has been stolen by Linghuxuan and used to prepare for the attack on Suzhou City." The princess's voice was calm and slow: "In August Mid-Autumn, the Taihu robbers rebelled and attacked Suzhou, Dong Yuan and Huangyang Taoist. Respond in the city, when the time comes, the inside and the outside will unite, and we will win Suzhou City in one fell swoop."

Pan Weixing lowered his head and said: "At present, the Queen Mother's Association is indeed such a plan. However, we have learned that his plan should be eradicated in the city, and then mobilize troops and horses to wipe out the Taihu Pirates in one fell swoop."

The princess was noncommittal and asked: "Master Pan, didn't you mean that you sent two soldiers and horses to round up Taixuanguan one way, and the other way to capture the Taihu thief Tu Kuohai. Has Chen Xi returned?"

Pan Weixing said hurriedly: "Old minister, go and take a look." He got up and went out. It didn't take long for Chen Xi to come in. Chen Xi didn't seem to expect Princess Musk Moon would appear in Suzhou and see the one sitting on the chair. She Yue was taken aback, but quickly stepped forward two steps and fell to her knees.

"Chen Xi, is Tu Kuohai caught?" Sheyue was straightforward, without nonsense.

Chen Xi bowed his head and said: "Return to your Highness, Tu Kuohai and the Taihu pirates under him have disappeared. They searched the Yuelai Inn, but no trace of them. The minion thought that they probably knew in advance that the government was going to arrest them. Escape."

"Impossible!" Pan Weixing's old face changed color: "Princess, the old minister has been telling his men to stare at Yuelai Inn. Tu Kuohai and his group of five people live in Yuelai Inn. There are people guarding the front and back doors. If they leave, The subordinates will definitely come to report."

Chen Xi shook his head and said: "Mr. Cishi, Prefect Liang had already found out their guest room numbers in the inn. At midnight, officers and soldiers rushed into the inn. After the front and back doors were blocked, the others rushed directly to the three rooms they were staying in. , But the three rooms were empty and there was no trace of them. Then the prefect of Liang asked his subordinates to search all over the inn, almost digging three feet, and never found any of them. "Looking at Pan Weixing: "Tu Kuohai led the people to disappear. According to my judgment, someone should have notified them in advance. He knew that the government was going to take action tonight, so he had fled before the officers and soldiers arrived."
