Hengyuan's eyes fell on the jade mirror, which he left at the bottom of the well. In the conflict with Henghui, he accidentally fell out of his arms.

Then, after listening to Henghui's story and watching him sit down, he felt sad and didn't worry about the fragments of the book.

Later, the watchman came. He knew he would go to the dungeon. In case the mirror was searched by the watchman, staying at the bottom of the well was the best choice.

Hengyuan's plan is that if he has a chance to get away, he can get back the fragments of the book, or Taoist Jinlian will pick them up for him.

I didn't expect that it finally fell into the hands of the watchman.

Xu Qian stares at HengYuan, waiting for his reply.

The jade mirror was handed over to him by Wei Yuan this morning, leaving no other instructions, but Xu Qi'an felt that Wei Yuan meant to return the fragments of the book to No. 6 by his hand.

Seeing his bald head was silent for a long time, Xu Qi'an took a sip of tea and said slowly, "this mirror was found at the bottom of the well, not yours, or Henghui's. And its real name is Dishu. "

Hengyuan suddenly raised his head and gazed at him. Xu Qi'an smiles, confident tone: "there are many people in the world who don't know it, but not including US watchmen."

Hengyuan bowed his head again and said in a low voice, "this is the poor monk's

Xu Qi'an said, "as far as I know, this is the magic weapon of daomen dizong. How can it be in your hands as a monk?"

Hengyuan replied: "I got this magic weapon by chance. I hope you can return it to me."

Master Yu shook his head and said with a smile, "take back the mirror? Can the magic weapon of daomen dizong be explained by a sentence of "karma meeting"?

"If you honestly say something useful, I will let you leave, otherwise, you will stay in the dungeon of the watchman for the rest of your life."

Hengyuan was silent for a moment and got up to leave.

Xu Qi'an frowned and said, "where are you going?"

"Poor monk, go back to the dungeon."

No. 6 is not bad. He didn't betray heaven and Earth Society. Of course, it may be because he didn't suffer punishment. But that's not what I want. Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice: "it's just a magic weapon. Why is master here? Is there anything more valuable than freedom in the world?"

Hengyuan did not turn back, just said: "please put back the shackles for the poor monk."

Xu Qi'an looked at the recorder and said, "go out first."

The clerk packed up the paper, pen and inkstone and left the interrogation room.

Xu Qi'an coughed and his tone became soft: "master, please sit down, please sit down."

He got up, pulled Hengyuan's arm and made a respectful gesture.

Hengyuan sat back at the table in a daze and looked at the gong with a 180 degree change in attitude. He didn't know what was in his mind.

"My Lord, I don't know anything. I got the book by chance." Hengyuan is helpless.

Don't talk so hard. Monks don't lie. You'll be embarrassed later! Xu Qi'an said with a smile: "it's better to be No. 6 of heaven and Earth Society."

Hengyuan stares at him, and looks at him in surprise and stupidity. The indifferent temperament on his face disappears, full of hostility and vigilance.

It seems that as long as Xu Qi'an reveals the signal that he wants to do harm to heaven and earth, he slaps the gong to death and trades his life for his life.

Xu Qi'an lowered his voice, with a tone of underground party joint, lying on the table, said: "I'm Xu Qi'an, the spy of Yunlu Academy in the watchman's Yamen.

"It's not the Yamen who found the fragments of the book. I picked them up from the bottom of the well, and I brought people to find you. And all of this, it's my order No. 3, he's my superior. "

Number three?! Hengyuan was deeply shocked. He didn't immediately deny and doubt the words of Causeway, because at this moment, he thought of something.

"No. 3 is a student of Yunlu Academy. He disclosed that the Academy had placed staff in various yamen of the imperial court more than once. As a Confucian orthodox college who once held the imperial court, such behavior is normal, but...

" after the Sangbo case, No. 3 also mentioned the details of Sangbo case in the internal biography of heaven and Earth Society... The daguanren yamen did have Yunlu Academy Spy...

"but how does number three know where I am? Yes, Taoist priest Jinlian knew the identity of each of us. At that time, Henghui was with me. Taoist priest Jinlian would definitely avoid conflicts with Henghui, so he had to turn to others. However, No. 3, who is in charge of the Sangpo case and has a spy inside the watchman's Yamen, is the best target for help...

"I owe No. 3 another life. No. 3 is worthy of being a scholar, chivalrous and courageous, and a trustworthy friend. I'm afraid it will be difficult to repay this cause and effect in the future." Thinking of this, Hengyuan took a deep breath, looked at Xu Qian's eyes, no longer alert and hostile, and asked softly, "what else did number three say?"

"He said that Chunwei is just around the corner and he can't leave Yunlu Academy. If he encounters similar troubles in the future, he may not be able to help. So, let me get in touch with you. If you need any help in the future, please feel free to ask me. "Xu Qi'an added in his heart: I can also find you if I have any needs, but I won't expose No. 3's identity. At least not in the short term.

He doesn't want to expose himself for the time being. For one thing, the forced personality he set up before is a little pompous. The members of heaven and earth society all think that he is the top elite of Yunlu academy and a talented person with rich knowledge.

It turns out that number three is just a gong.

Second, if you keep your hands open, you'll have a lot of room for manipulation.

Anyway, for No. 6 HengYuan, it doesn't make much difference whether I am a watchman or a student of Yunlu Academy. I don't cheat.

Hengyuan nodded, took the fragments of the book from the gongs, and said, "if you need help from me in the future, please open your mouth."

Xu Qi'an waved his hand with a smile: "master, I'll take you out now."

Seeing off HengYuan, Xu Qi'an returns to Chunfeng hall. LV Qing and other captors of the Yamen have stopped coming to the Yamen because they know that Xu Qi'an is likely to make up for his mistakes in the case of Princess Pingyang.

Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao meditate in the side hall, while Li Yuchun is tidying up. Every ornament must be neat.

"Chief, I'll help you...

" no, don't move. " Li Yuchun immediately called to stop: "I'll do it myself. I'll do it myself."

Xu Qi had a good time. He sat down at the table and said, "when the case is over, let's go to the Jiaofang department to have a drink. I'll invite everyone."

"Jiaofang Secretary..." Li Yuchun hesitated.

"Chief, you've never been to the archdeacon." Xu Qi'an found Huadian and frowned.

In this era, men with status and status have never been to the Jiaofang department. The degree of rarity is just like Xu Qian's female doctor who was still a virgin in her last life, and the 30-year-old male doctor never had to be forced by hand.

They are rare in the world.

"Where can I go to the smoky place?" Li Yuchun shook his head and said, "are the three beheaded at noon today

Xu Qian shook his head: "no, I can't stand that kind of scene."

Li Yuchun cast a puzzled look.

Beheading is too normal in Dafeng. Not to mention that a group of officials in Beijing and Chahar were dragged to the vegetable market and beheaded. They are the executed criminals who were beheaded after autumn, which is enough for the common people to be born and cooked once, and watch while eating three times.

No psychological pressure.

"I'm not going anyway." Xu Qian said.

Hundreds of people decapitation scene, for him, the impact is too big, will not sleep. This is because he had several years of criminal investigation experience and read a lot of bloody murder documents. Ordinary people, I'm afraid, will fall into a psychological shadow.

... at noon, the vegetable market opened.

On the execution platform, there were more than 100 people kneeling. The two in the front row were Zhang Feng, Minister of the Ministry of war, and his son Zhang Yi.

They were dressed in white prison clothes and their eyes were covered with black cloth, waiting for death. Thousands of people gathered around, watching from the inside and outside.

Not everyone likes to see the cruel and bloody scene, although in the eyes of the people, the beheaded are the most heinous criminals. The main reason is that the Imperial Court adopted the policy of half forcing and half encouraging the "onlookers". Some people had to come and were forced to come.

The reason is simple: to carry forward the majesty of the imperial court and to frighten the people.

"Chop!" The executive officer looked at the corona and threw the order.

When death came, the blindfolded relatives yelled at Zhang Feng, the Minister of the Ministry of war, for harming others and himself. They would not let him go as a ghost.

The executioner held the butcher's knife high, and the heads fell one by one. The blood splashed with exaggeration, and the strong smell of blood could even be tasted by the people outside.

After that, two groups of prisoners were executed, namely, the family members of Uncle Pingyuan and sun Zhongming.

Monk HengYuan, standing outside the crowd, quietly turns and leaves. He comes to watch the execution scene for two reasons:
