retaliate

Chapter 47
The Prince's inspection trip to the Imperial Academy came to an end quickly.

The emperor in the palace just smiled when he learned of the situation, "His so-called great scholars are not as good as a student of the Imperial College.

Han Shitou bowed his head, and four words floated over his head: ulterior motives.

On the mirror stage, Wang Shou said coldly, "The student... give me some benefits."

So Yang Xuan inexplicably got a few pieces of silk and satin.

"This is a good thing in the palace."

Cao Ying's eyes lit up, and Yi Niang sneered, "It's a reward from that dog emperor, bah!"

Looking back, all these satins were thrown into the stove by Yi Niang.

Even in the afternoon, the kitchen still smelled of burning satin, which was very exciting.

Yang Xuan felt that Yi Niang had the boldness of a big family, but was worried that she was in charge of money.

"Isn't the Guozijian any favors?" Yi Niang was a little dissatisfied, she was stingy and stingy.

"Don't underestimate the Guozijian." Cao said in a deep voice; "How many students have the Guozijian sent out over the years? You say that you don't form a party, but you really want to shout at that time..."

"But they swore not to form a party." Yi Niang thought this was a bad idea.

Cao Ying smiled very gentleman, "Lang Jun is like a fish in water in the Imperial College. If you can make good friends with the people in the Imperial College, what kind of party formation... Helping your own people is also called party formation?"

"Lang Jun, there are guests."

The old thief lived alone in the front yard, and by the way, he was a part-time worker.

Yang Xuan went out and asked, "Who?" The old thief accompanied him and whispered, "That man is bald."

Bald?

When Yang Xuan arrived at the front yard, he smiled when he saw Tang Xiaonian, "Tang Lang is rare."

"Call it Old Tang." Tang Xiaonian glanced at the old thief, the old thief looked at Yang Xuan, and Yang Xuan nodded before avoiding it.

Tang Xiaonian whispered: "Someone in the county has a bad idea, saying that there are thieves outside the city and their whereabouts are hard to find, so let the bad people go to investigate."

"A thief outside the city?"

Yang Xuan was surprised, "Where's Jin Wuwei?"

Tang Xiaonian scratched his head with a wry smile, and a few long hair fell, "You just slapped Deputy General Zhou of Jinwuwei, do you think it's appropriate?"

"Those thieves have attacked several times recently, and they are cruel and ruthless. They have never been able to catch them. You have been in too much limelight recently, and some people are not used to it." Tang Xiaonian looked at the old thief not far away, and secretly praised that the distance was kept very well, and he could take action at any time. You can also ensure that you can't hear what's being said here.

"Sooner or later." Yang Xuan said, "Thank you."

The next day, as soon as Yang Xuan arrived in the county, he was called by the county chief, Qiu Sheng.

Qiu Xing's expression was indifferent, the standard Shangguan's attitude towards his subordinates was reserved and looked down.

"There are thieves outside the city who often rob passing merchants. Yesterday, someone was robbed and killed again. This is a serious matter. You can take the bad guys to hunt them down."

"Yes." Yang Xuan was very cheerful.

Shangguan smashes a brick, you can only continue.

Of course, if you have the ability to connect the bricks and throw them back, that's your feat.

There was a sneering look in Qiu Xing's eyes, "The matter is urgent, Mingfu is furious, and I gave you five days. The old man was talking at Mingfu and gave you two more days."

Didn't Huang Wenzun say ten days, and your advice was changed to seven days?Yang Xuan was silent.

He just took over the matter, and he has to investigate and find out, and then he can hunt down... On the seventh day, Tang Xiaonian said yesterday that the group of thieves had been at ease for a long time, and no one was in a hurry.

This is a pit.

Watching Yang Xuan walk out of the duty room, Qiu Sheng seemed to see his body suddenly fall into the pit.

A soft voice came out of his mouth, "Bang!"

……

"Seven days? Isn't this a scam?" Wen Xinshu was angry, "Yang Shuai, those thieves are slippery and ruthless. The bad guys from Chang'an County have been there, but no one can do anything to them. We are just three... …”

"I will bring a few people to help." Yang Xuan soothed.

Zhao Guolin rubbed Ma Leng, "This is a pit, but Yang Shuai has to jump."

The second day, outside the city.

Zhao Guolin and Wen Xinshu looked at the two men and one woman behind Yang Xuan, wondering.

"My cousin is bored at home, so come out for a walk." Yang Xuan explained forcefully.

Wen Xinshu said: "The man looked gentle and elegant, with a good bearing."

Cao Ying has a gentleman's air on her face, and nodded slightly, "This old man is Lang Jun's husband. He has studied for many years, and he has a splendid beauty in his chest."

"What do you mean?" Wen Xinshu was puzzled.

Zhao Guolin carried Ma Leng, "He can come up with ideas."

The rest of the old thieves were ignored by them.

All the way out of the city, on a road more than ten miles outside the city, there are already local villages waiting.

Village Zheng pointed to Lin Zi next to him and introduced the situation, "Yesterday, a traveler passed by here, and the group of thieves rushed out and killed two people..."

Yang Xuan asked, "Who are those two?"

Cao Ying sighed in the back: "I'm afraid it's a noble person, so this pit will be a big one."

"No." Yi Niang shook her head.

Village Zheng smiled bitterly, "There were a lot of officials at that time, I heard that... one of them is the brother-in-law of King Zhen."

Later, Cao Ying explained, "It's King Zhen's wife and brother."

"Shut up!" There was a hint of sadness in Yi Niang's eyes.

Yang Xuan did not expect that he and his half-brother Zhen Wang Li Xin would be in contact with each other in this way.

As soon as the village was gone, Yang Xuan instructed: "Old Zhao took Wen Xinshu to check the woods on both sides, those thieves must have left some traces."

The two went.

Cao Ying analyzed: "Lang Jun, Your Majesty places great importance on King Zhen and King Yong."

He emphasized the two words he valued, "If you can't find it within seven days, thunder will come."

In order to show his love for the two cousins, the emperor could make Yang Xuan and others who handled the matter unlucky with a casual sentence.

"What should I do?" Yi Niang broke the silence.

Yang Xuan touched his chin, "This group of thieves has been in the vicinity recently, and they specially raided the passing business travel, indicating that they have a stronghold nearby."

Cao Ying nodded, "But there are many villages around, how can you tell where they are?"

The old thief Jia Ren raised his hand - this was taught by Yang Xuan.

"Speak." Yang Xuan nodded.

Jia Ren said: "Lang Jun, ordinary thieves will not stare at one place and start their actions."

You can't point at a sheep and lick the wool hard.

"Get a shot and change the place." Yang Xuan nodded, "Continue talking."

As a leader, he must concentrate the wisdom of his subordinates for his own use.

"But this group of people all started on this road. In the front and back, they could find a location at will and stare at the past business trips..." The old thief said with certainty: "Based on the experience of this old man, they are either too confident, or It's just as stupid as a hog."

Yi Niang asked, "What's your experience?"

The old thief's empty eyes showed an air of confidence for the first time, "The experience of being a thief."

Cao Ying squatted there, "Lang Jun, the stupid and stupid thieves are credited, not to mention Jin Wuwei and the bad guys, the local village leaders will bring the strong and strong to make contributions, where will we be."

Yang Xuan nodded, "Fangcai Village just said that the bad people in Chang'an County have checked the surrounding villages, but they have found nothing. They are all good people, and there are no thieves. They are a complete mess."

"Outside thieves can't." Cao Ying hoped to show her side as a think tank. "Thieves from other places are very likely to be found on the road. Since they are smart, they naturally won't do such stupid things."

"Yang Shuai." Zhao Guolin and Wen Xinshu came back.

"Have you found anything?" Yang Xuan was squatting and got up and asked.

Zhao Guolin pointed at Wen Xinshu while carrying Ma Leng, "It's just shit."

Yi Niang turned her back, Cao Ying smiled, but her lips trembled.

Wen Xinshu is holding leaves in his hands, and on the leaves...

"It's been a while." Zhao Guolin said seriously.

These dry feces vary in size and shape.

Yang Xuan glanced at it, "Since we ruled out that the thieves are roaming and committing crimes..."

"Running and committing crimes...it's very incisive." The think tank sent loyal flattery.

Will this think tank become a minister in the future?
Then flatter me all day?
Yang Xuan thought of the courtiers in the TV series, then shook his head, put aside those inexplicable characters, and said, "Since this is the case, then our only way out is in the surrounding area."

Even Yi Niang understood, "That is to say, the murderer is in the nearby village."

"Yes." Yang Xuan decided to go home and watch more of those series, "Our only way is to investigate."

In the afternoon, against the sunset, Yang Xuan entered Chang'an City.

"How?" Tang Xiaonian was waiting for him.

"It's a very bad day, I didn't find anything." Wen Xinshu replied instead of Yang Xuan, and habitually glanced at the top of Tang Xiaonian's head.

"Hey! Old Tang has more hair?" Wen Xinshu smiled and said, "Congratulations."

"Cough cough!" Tang Xiaonian said reservedly, "I have been in good health recently."

"I'm hungry and tired, go home quickly." The crowd dispersed.

Tang Xiaonian got on the horse and sighed: "It's not easy to live."

The wind blew softly, and the long hair on Tang Xiaonian's head spread out around him.

He hurriedly stretched out his hand to bring the messy hair back to the top of his head and covered it with a headscarf. Immediately, his confidence returned.

Yang Xuan glanced at it and asked, "Suzaku."

"I'm here."

"It's better than a shaved head like this Mediterranean hairstyle, I bet no one in this world can handle this kind of haircut."

"Have."

"Who?"

"Jason Da."

On the first day, everyone got nothing.

Set off again the next day.

To a village, the village is out to welcome.

"Who goes out a lot lately?"

Yang Xuan changed the question.

This question has been asked countless times in the village, and he said familiarly: "A lot of people go out to farm, but the land in the village is all in one place, and you can see it when you look up. No one can run and become a thief."

Even Cao Ying looked disappointed.

Jia Ren interjected, "What about the others? Except for farming."

Cao Ying felt that this person was rude to interject, so she frowned slightly, and Yi Niang whispered: "He is better at being a thief than you are a think tank."

Village Zheng said: "Yes, but yes, there are elderly people in the village who love to go out, and their children and grandchildren will take turns to accompany them, drive ox carts, bring wine and food, and come back in the afternoon. Hey! ."

Yang Xuan moved slightly in his heart and asked, "Which one?"

The roster was in Cao Ying's hands, and the key points were drawn. Hearing this, he looked down and said, "The Liao family."

……

Liao's house is at the west end of the village, and it is very convenient to get in and out.

According to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, parents do not divide their families and do not divide their children.Liao Hutou was in his early sixties, and the family lived together in a mighty and lively manner.

A pair of young eyes looked out through the crack of the door, their eyes were blank, then they retracted their gaze and turned around.

Behind him, more than twenty men, women and children stood.

Liao Baoer said negatively: "How many times, no one can find it, calm down!"

On the third day, it was still the same.

Fourth day.

fifth day.

Day [-]...

A traveler appeared on the official road.

A blind man with blank eyes and a bamboo pole in his hand.

A seemingly weak middle-aged man.

The blind man rode on a horse, led by a middle-aged man, and the two were well dressed.

side of the woods.

Liao Baoer turned around to his grandfather Liao Hutou and said, "That righteous old guy will definitely help, remember to be ruthless and kill him. As for the blind man, put it aside for now."

Liao Hutou is 60 years old and looks slightly fat.He nodded vigorously, his eyes became more stern, "Go ahead."

Then the two went out.

Pfft!
Liao Hu's head fell under the scorching sun.

"Aon!"

The shrill cry was like a cuckoo weeping blood.

"What's the matter with you, Aon? Here's someone!"
