Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 72 Surprise
Shangyuan City is not only in Tangzhou, but also in the entire Daxuan Dynasty. It is also a famous historical city.

It has served as a capital three times in the history of the world, dating back 500 years.

Although the scale and political status of the city is not as good as that of Wude City, where Tangzhou's state capital is located, it is far ahead in terms of economic development.

Looking from a distance, one can see a majestic and huge city, located at the junction of mountains and plains.

The city walls are heavily fortified, the monuments are mottled, and it has a strong sense of history.

In the city, there are four Qu and eight streets, full of traffic and extremely prosperous.

"I don't understand..." Immediately, Huo Anu said to Zhao Yu, "Obviously we are the ones who fight against injustice and act righteously. It is only natural to teach those whores a lesson, but why does Master Xu not mention that blind girl, but insists on saying that we were attacked Woolen cloth?"

"Hehe, you're too quack!" Zhao Yu laughed, "If your lord really says what you say, it's tantamount to admitting that we did it first.

"Although we are officials, it is not a joke to attack soldiers rashly. You have to continue even if you set up a rebellion."

"Oh……"

If Huo Anu has realized something, she is a person in the world, she only seeks happiness and revenge, but she doesn't know much about legal codes.

"According to the logic," Zhao Yu continued to explain, "We are not military officers. Even if we fight against injustices, we should at most just show our identities and stop talking. We must not do anything!"

"Oh..." Huo Anu looked at the carriage in front of him, "I didn't expect Master Xu to be so clever, and he has a lot of tricks! If I couldn't beat up those bastards just now, I would have to be angry!"

"Hmm... Huo girl," Zhao Yu took the opportunity to persuade, "Now it's different from us in Xinye County, we all have to deal with Lord Hou, so don't be too arrogant when things happen, otherwise, It will cause trouble for Master Xu!"

"Understood, long-winded!" Huo Anu glared at Zhao Yu angrily, but he already understood something in his heart.

At this moment, their carriage had already driven into the Central Avenue of Shangyuan City. In order to prevent further misunderstandings, Wu Zhengranlin specially led a team of soldiers to escort them.

In the carriage, Xu Zun put down Miss Lu Mingyue's portrait, thoughts suddenly filled his mind.

What he is most worried about right now is not the missing case of the daughter of the Marquis Mansion, but the bitter mother who sat in the same carriage as him.

The important secret of the iron coffin case is hidden in Ku Niang, and he must not only ensure her safety, but also find out her secrets as much as possible.

After getting along for many days, Ku Niang still acts like a robot except that her eyes are still fierce and deep. She will only carry out orders when she gives them.

It's just that, apart from eating and sleeping, it seems that no matter what order she is asked to perform, she can't do well.

Her only good thing, though, is being quiet.

As long as there is no order, she will not speak or move, let alone be surprised, which is convenient for hiding her identity.

Originally, Xu Zun wanted to get her a wig and put it on, but there was no place to make wigs in Xinye County, so he had to put a thick cotton cap on her first.

Now, Ku Niang was sitting upright in front of him, with her back straight, which reminded Xu Zun of the female robot in "Terminator".

Of course Xu Zun didn't believe in evil, but after these few days, he still felt that this poor lady was too weird.

Whenever he had skin-to-skin contact with her, Xu Zun couldn't help but feel a ferocious roar in his head.

It was as if Ku Niang suppressed some ancient demon in her body, which made Xu Zun feel terrified and terrified.

It’s incredible!
As the saying goes, Daxuan is not Xuanxuan, based on Xu Zun's current understanding, this world is indeed the same as the original world, without ghosts, gods and monsters, fighting spirit and spiritual power, he should firmly believe in materialism.

But the feeling that this miserable woman in front of him gave him seemed to be gradually surpassing the scope of science.

At this moment, some details of the iron coffin case flashed through Xu Zun's mind:
Chen Taiji said: The first iron coffin had vent holes, and its shape was closer to a coffin. If you didn't touch and knock it, you wouldn't know it was an iron coffin...

Luo Wanwan said: There is urine and feces in the iron coffin...

When Xu Zun asked about the identities of those 37 people, Chen Taiji and Cai Kun kept silent, but their expressions had already been revealed to Xu Zun for information, and it was inconvenient for the outside world to know the identities of those [-] people.

So...they are all royals?
If I had guessed right, the first iron coffin case was very likely to involve royal insiders, so it was kept secret from top to bottom, and no one even knew where the coffin was now.

call……

Looking at Ku Niang sitting upright in front of him, Xu Zun seemed to have figured out some things, but he couldn't connect them together.

After all, the iron coffin case left him with too few clues.

Ok!

Finally, Xu Zun put away his thoughts and turned his attention back to the disappearance case in front of him.

He knew that the case in front of him must be a test for him from above, and if he could handle it well, he would definitely be reused in the future.

Only in this way can it be possible to get in touch with the core secret of the iron coffin case.

"stop!"

Thinking of this, Xu Zun suddenly raised the curtain of the car and ordered Liu Dong to stop.

"Woo..." Liu Dong hurriedly stopped the carriage.

Xu Zun jumped out of the car, came to Huo Anu at the back, and ordered:

"Anu, you take Liu Dong's family to find an inn to settle down first, and Zhao Yu and I go to the Hou's Mansion to investigate the case. Afterwards, we will meet up at the Sheriff's Mansion!"

"Ah?" Huo Anu was surprised, "Why? Even a thief... oh no, even a servant is protected by me"

"Don't ask why," Xu Zun whispered, "Your current task is to protect Liu Dong's family. If there is any mistake in their family, it will be your dereliction of duty!"

Xu Zun spoke very forcefully, even though Huo Anu refused to accept, he jumped off the horse and got into Liu Dong's carriage with great reluctance.

Seeing the carriage leave, Xu Zun stepped onto Huo Anu's tall horse and said to Ran Lin: "Take me to the Changping Marquis Mansion right now!"

"Ah? This..."

Ran Lin was also very surprised, but she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to obediently lead the way.

"My lord," Zhao Yu was even more puzzled, and hastily reminded in a low voice, "In the eyes of Lord Hou, a seventh-rank official doesn't even count as bird droppings. Isn't it against the rules for you to go directly like this?"

Indeed, according to the tradition of etiquette, Xu Zun must first obtain a formal official certificate from the governor, and then be recommended by the governor before he can speak to Marquis Changping.

Entering the mansion to investigate the case rashly like this is not only extremely reckless, but even disrespectful. If you offend Lord Hou, there will be no good results.

However, Xu Zun had already made up his mind and said: "If you can't break it, you can't build it! We are already five days late, if we want to know the real situation, we must win by surprise!"

……

Half an hour later, the Marquis of Changping.

The Hou's mansion is magnificent, the high gate is solemn, and the courtyard wall is like a city wall.

"You two," a steward of the Hou's Mansion said politely to Xu Zun and Zhao Yu, "I'm really sorry, because of the matter of Miss, Master Hou went out to look for it this morning and hasn't returned yet, you two should go back! "

Zhao Yu glanced at Xu Zun, and said in his heart: How is it?Am I supposed to be shut down?

"Brother," Xu Zun said, "I would like to trouble you to inform me again, and say that I believe that the problem of Miss' disappearance may be in the Hou's Mansion!"

"you!?"

The steward was surprised.

Zhao Yu stared in fright.

"Otherwise," Xu Zun said calmly, "If you lend me a hundred courage, I wouldn't dare to bother Lord Hou, right!?"
