Xu Lingyue guessed that she was a man with too much brain tonic and rather stuffy temperament. Her mood was always in her heart. Seeing her elder brother's safe return, she finally fell down with a big stone in her heart, crying and tears rolling.

Until the servant girl came out of the door, looking at the brother and sister who were in a group, she exclaimed in surprise: "Dalao is out of prison?"

At this time, Xu Lingyue remembered that she was a yellow flower girl who had not come out of the cabinet. She broke away from her elder brother's arms, sobbing and drooping her head, her face burning red.

Xu Qi'an took his sister's hand and went into the boudoir. The servant girl made tea for him and stood on one side to listen to the conversation between Dalao and the young lady.

"You go and tell the servants to heat some hot water. I'll take a bath." Xu Qi'an said.

The servant girl went out to spread a message, but when the next people heard that, their faces changed greatly, and they shook their heads and refused.

The servant girl is very aggrieved to go back to tell Dalang, Xu Dalang is also very angry, heart said is you this group of servants gone with the wind, or I Xu Dalang can't lift the knife.

"Then help to boil the water." Xu Qian Road.

The servant girl was more aggrieved, but she didn't dare to refuse and left with pursed lips.

Xu Qi'an turned his head and said with a smile to Xu Lingyue, "Your Majesty allows me to make up for my mistakes. I'm ok for the moment."

Xu Lingyue nodded, delicate melon face some haggard, "big brother how to do with colleagues."

Xu Qi'an said the matter simply. Xu Lingyue was very angry when she heard it. She clenched her fist and said, "my elder brother is always at ease with my younger sister."

Her eyes were full of pride.

For a moment, Xu Qi'an couldn't help pinching her face.

Xu Lingyue hung her head in shame.

After taking a bath and putting on the uniform of a watchman, Xu Qi'an and Xu Lingyin sit under the eaves, row by row, holding a large bowl of shredded egg and meat noodles in their hands.

This scene is harmonious and warm.

Xu Qi'an said, "Lingyin, brother, how about exchanging meat for eggs?"

Xu Lingyin thought about it and shook her head: "no, my mother said that my elder brother cheated me last time."

"Do you think big brother cheated you?"

She tilted her head, seriously thought: "forget."

Xu Qi'an said: "so, how can big brother cheat you? Big brother is not trying to cheat you to eat your eggs. Big brother just..."

before he finished, he saw Xu Lingyin taking two mouthfuls at the egg.

Xu Qian has a dull face.

Xu Lingyin said, "my second brother taught me."

No scholar is a good thing! Xu Qian bowed his head to eat and gave up his younger sister's eggs.

But he wilted and threatened: "ring tone, this noodle is not edible. It's poisonous."

"Ah?" Xu Lingyin stares at the bowl on her lap, and then looks at elder brother. She is in a state of suspense.

Xu Qi'an patiently explained to her, popular science knowledge: "you fell before, skin rubbed broken, your father is not using saliva to wipe your wound?"

Xu Lingyin nodded.

Xu Qi'an said: "this is because saliva can... Well, it can kill dirty things. It can be inferred that once saliva leaves the mouth, it is poisonous. From this we can infer that your egg noodles are poisonous and can't be eaten. "

He said, looking at Xu Lingyin's little face a little bit white.

"Will I die?" Xu Lingyin shriveled her mouth and asked, weeping.

"To die is not to die, but to have a stomachache for many days." Xu Qian said.

Xu Lingyin nodded and continued to eat noodles at ease.

Xu Qian

...

after eating noodles, he comes to Xu Erlang's room and finds his own jade mirror in his study. Xu Qi'an takes it into his arms and accidentally finds several pages of paper that Erlang has placed in the corner of his desk and presses them with paperweight.

It is an analysis of Xu Qi'an's situation and an evaluation of whether Si Tianjian and Yunlu academy can work.

Probably in the dead of night, I sit in my study and think about it, and write down my thoughts.

Little brother still has a few brushes. Xu Qi'an smiles and leaves the study.

All the way back to the yamen, he went straight to see Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan had been waiting for a long time. He pointed to the position beside Yang Yan and said gently, "sit down."

Yang Yan's face was expressionless and handed over a file.

Wei Yuan said: "I'll let Jinyu hall, Chunfeng hall and Zhenxie hall work together to handle this case. It's you

Xu Qian was surprised.

Wei Yuan said with a smile: "Your Majesty's oral instruction."

When his eyes meet, Xu Qian suddenly understands that Wei Yuan wants to promote him through this matter... Directly appoint him as the principal official, rather than cooperate in handling the case.

Xu Qi'an unfolded the file, read it carefully, and asked straightforwardly, "is there anything sealed under Sangpo?"

Different colors flashed in Wei Yuan's eyes.

Yang Yan's expressionless face all the year round also showed a look of surprise.Wei Yuan told him the truth that sampoli was sealed with something this morning, and Nangong qianrou, who was smarter than him, also had an accident in Sangpo last night. He thought that his adoptive father was looking up the data and files in the warehouse that day. This is a bit of speculation, but he can't confirm it.

Until this morning, my adoptive father told them the truth.

But this little Gong said that there was something sealed under Sangpo.

Wei Yuan restrained his unexpected expression and said with a smile, "tell me about your reasoning."

Xu Qi'an, with a guilty body, was eager to show himself in front of Wei Yuan and said, "although Sangpo is a forbidden area, the only thing of value to outsiders is probably the Zhenguo magic sword."

Speaking of this, he looked at the dossier: "but it says that Zhenguo Shenjian is OK. Then the target of the thief is something else.

"So I guess there must be something in the mountain and River Temple of Yongzhen? And why should this thing be put in Sampo? If you dare to guess, maybe that thing needs Zhenguo Shenjian to seal the town. "

In fact, after knowing the answer, Xu Qian reverses the process.

With his clear thinking and careful logic, he won Yang Yan's task and paid more and more attention to the small Gong under his command.

Not only outstanding talent, but also smart, strong ability, it is worth cultivating.

"The Duke of Wei knows it..." Xu Qi'an said tentatively.

Wei Yuan shook his head calmly: "Your Majesty didn't say it clearly, but I had a bit of speculation in my heart..." his face was serious, and his tone contained a warning:

"your task is to find out who did the bombing of Yongzhen mountain and River Temple, and the matter of recovering that thing has nothing to do with you. In case of trouble that cannot be solved, tell Yang Jinluo that he will come forward.

"Your Majesty has given you a gold medal to walk in the imperial city. Except for the back palace and some special places, you can walk freely with this card."

Xu Qi'an was ordered to leave.

Wei Yuan watched his back leave, listened to the slight steps coming from the stairs, and looked at Yang Yan: "I heard that JianZheng is ill?"

Yang Yan nodded.

Wei Yuan eyes quiet, silent for a long time: "old thing!"

...

leaving Haoqi building, Xu Qi'an went straight to Chunfeng hall and said, "chief, gather two silver gongs of JinYuTang Zhenxie hall at once and gather in the front yard of Yamen. Speed up!"

Li Yuchun's face was muddled. After a while, he glared and said, "you are the leader, I am the leader?"

My little brother is bossing him.

Xu Qian showed his gold medal: "I'm the host appointed by your majesty now. From now on, we'll talk about our own business. I call you the leader and you call me the adult.

"Chief, help me to invite two silver gongs."

Li Yuchun left in depression. What's the difference? It's always strange.

The silver Gong of Zhenxie hall, surnamed Yang and named Feng, is a tall and thin middle-aged man with dark skin and a big black mole on his eyebrow.

The silver Gong of JinYuTang is a man with a full face and beard, called min Shan. There was an oblique scar on his cheek, which was very vicious.

In addition, Li Yuchun of Chunfeng hall, three silver gongs and twelve bronze gongs soon gathered in front of the courtyard.

According to the "custom" of the yamen, before going out to handle a case, we should gather in the front yard, and the organizer should take the lead in lecturing and inspiring.

It's also for other watchmen.

"Last night, there was an explosion in Sangpo, and the mountain and River Temple of Yongzhen was destroyed. Your Majesty's Long Yan was angry and ordered the Yamen to find out the truth and catch the thief within half a month." Xu Qi'an pressed the knife with one hand, his posture was upright, and his eyes were sharp:

"I have been instructed by your majesty to investigate the case in person, and we will cooperate in handling it. We must do our best to repay the emperor's kindness."

Xu Nen city to do a good job in the club, added: not a good chopping head.

"Yes Everyone said in unison.

Because they are all silver gongs and bronze gongs under Yang Yan's hands. Everyone is still obedient, but they are not convinced. Thinking about Xu Qi'an's experience and ability to deal with such a big thing with a bronze Gong.

I don't know how your majesty chose him as the case officer.

Leaving the watchman's Yamen, he turned over and mounted his horse. Min Yinluo, with a bearded face, asked, "Mr. Xu, where are we going?"

"To the scene, of course." Xu Qian Road.

They rode to the imperial city and chose the most time-saving route: across the imperial city.

In fact, you can also bypass the imperial city to investigate the scene. Xu Qi'an relies on the gold medal to save time.

In any case, race against the clock is the first principle.

Led by the imperial guards, the watchmen came to Sangpo, where the scenery changed greatly, the corridor connecting the shore had been destroyed in the explosion, and the white marble platform in the middle of the lake had disappeared.

Sangpo water is clean, nothing, who can think of a few days ago also held a grand ceremony here.

A boat was moored by the lake. Xu Qi'an said, "let's go and have a look. We have to go into the water."

Xu Qian took the lead in jumping into the boat, quietly reached into his arms, pulled the back of the jade mirror, poured out the "magic book" presented by the great Confucian, tore off a page and dragged it in his hand.After that, twelve gongs and other soldiers were left on the shore.

Li Yuchun paddled to the center of the lake.

Tall and thin Yang Feng, Yang Yinluo took a look at Xu Qian and suddenly said, "Mr. Xu, I'll go down."

Xu Qi'an said: "then you can go into the water with me"

and ignited the paper to open the look out Qi technique.

Pei Qiang leaped into the water and took out the knife.

The cold water stimulates the pores, and strings of tiny bubbles emerge from the corners of Xu Qi'an's mouth with a black gold knife.

He tried to keep his eyes wide open and observe the bottom of the water.

The foundation of hanbaiyu high platform extends to the bottom of the lake, and the fracture of the platform collapses is more than one Zhang away from the water surface.

The sound of undercurrent surging came. Xu Qi'an looked back. It was Yang Yinluo who followed.

The tanned Yang Yinluo also observed the collapse of the white marble platform, and immediately had a judgment in his heart. He put his reasoning in his heart, and planned to test the little Causeway after landing.

At this time, Yang Yinluo found that Xu Qi'an followed the foundation of the white marble platform and dived into the bottom of the water.

He hastened to keep up. The lower he went, the more blurred his vision became. In the end, it was only dark.

Yang Yinluo no longer followed and floated up.

"Wow ~"

he jumped out of the water and climbed onto the boat. While steaming the cold water, he looked around the people:

"Mr. Xu went to the bottom of the lake. It was dark there and nothing could be seen."
