Chapter 68
Zhao Mingzhi frowned slightly, and said: "I have never seen him taken into prison, but I saw with my own eyes that he was taken away by government officials in Xu's courtyard, his hands were shackled, and he was asked to lead him away..."

In such a scene, no one dared to say that Li Xun was not captured.

But the person has been taken away, but not in prison, where can he go?
Someone suddenly asked: "Is it possible that Miss Zhao met in the morning, but she is not an official from Junzhou Prefecture?"

Everyone was taken aback and all went to look at him.

The man said: "There are many counties and towns under the jurisdiction of Junzhou. Those who wear official uniforms may not all be from the prefecture's office, but may also be sent by the county's or town's office."

He rubbed his hands that were red from the cold, and explained: "At the beginning, we ran for many years in various escort agencies in Junzhou City, but they couldn't get a pass from the state government. ——Such important matters can be talked about, I don't believe that he has no eyes and ears in the yamen, not to mention nothing, even if he really colluded with bandits, no one delivered the letter? How could he be really caught?"

"It's possible that Xiatou County and the town don't know the depth and rush to arrest people."

Someone on the side wondered: "Passing order? Didn't they all say that they were the ones who said it?"

The man replied: "Do you believe this too? Let me ask you, you have also been in Junzhou City for 20 years. How many times have you heard the brothers and sisters of Li's Escorts mention that the head of the Xu family?"

"Uh……"

"The escort agency is all surnamed 'Li', and everyone recognizes that Li Erdao is the master. When Mr. Xu was alive, he only came back to Junzhou once every three to five years. Dot up and down..."

"Even though Li Erdang's visits have been few and far between these few years, his prestige has not diminished at all. In my opinion, even if the previous relationship was established by Xu Laodang, now he has already been in the hands of Li Erdang..."

Suddenly everyone felt reasonable.

"This is even more troublesome - there are countless counties and towns under the jurisdiction of Junzhou. How can we find them one by one? How can we find them here!"

"I still have to hurry back and report to the head of the bodyguard, tell him to recruit more people, divide them into several teams, and go to four counties and towns to find acquaintances to inquire..."

Seeing that these people had their own ideas, Zhao Mingzhi thought for a moment, but said: "Perhaps they may not be sent by Xiatou County."

She asked: "I don't know if Junzhou can open the city gate at night?"

One person replied: "It was opened in the past, and although there was no curfew in the past two years because of Di's crimes, the city gate has not been opened at night since the beginning of last year."

Zhao Mingzhi asked again for the exact opening and closing time.

Everyone is used to running darts, and they are very familiar with this matter, so they answered in unison.

Zhao Mingzhi said: "I have some ideas, I can express them, and I would like to ask you brothers to help me to discuss them."

She picked up a dead branch, stepped on the snow on the ground, and drew a very simple map of Junzhou City on the ground, then picked an arc in the middle, pointed to that arc, and said, "I entered Junzhou through the west gate last night." In Zhoucheng, due to the heavy snow in the sky, it takes about half an hour to get to Xu’s house—I heard that Xu’s house is located in the city, I don’t know if it is true or not?”

Everyone said yes.

Zhao Mingzhi asked again: "I'm new here, and I'm not familiar with the city. I don't know how long it will take to get to Xu's house, except for the west gate, and enter through the other gates?"

"It's not too far away. It's half an hour sooner. If it snows, it will take more than half an hour." Someone rushed to answer.

Zhao Mingzhi said, "Xu Zhai lives in the city, if the gentleman is from outside the city, he can only come in after the gate of the city is opened in the morning?"

Everyone should be.

Zhao Mingzhi said again: "But when those gentlemen came to arrest him this morning, it was about Mao Shichu."

"The city gate opens at the end of the day, unless those yamen servants have grown wings, they can't arrive at Xu's house from the city gate in just a quarter of an hour—if they didn't enter the city this morning, they could only stay overnight, but I don't know When did it come—I wonder if it makes sense to be so caressing?"

For a moment, no one objected.

Zhao Mingzhi said again: "Since that's the case, there are two possibilities at this moment."

"First of all, as this brother said, those gentlemen were dispatched for other counties and towns this morning—the three counties of Wudang, Yunxiang, and Fengli under the jurisdiction of Junzhou, and there are many towns and towns, which is not good. Go and investigate one by one, but since people have come to the city to arrest suspects, as a business, they should rest overnight at the official post."

"Please go to the post station to find acquaintances, and find out if there are any county and town officials coming up to stay in the past two days-it's not cheap if you don't know-just ask."

"Secondly, those gentlemen were really sent by the state government this morning. I don't know what happened. The reason why Li Er was not sent to prison is very hard to guess. Only after meeting those gentlemen can we know. .”

"But the head of Li Er's family can't find it. If those public servants are servants of the state government, if they can escape the monks, can they also escape the temple? show up?"

"As long as you find those four people, I wonder if any of you brothers are familiar with the state government? Can you go and inquire?"

After some deduction, she asked the bodyguards to hold their breath and listened, everyone was convinced.

Someone said: "What the girl said is very true. I have acquaintances in the station, so I will ask."

Another person said: "Miss, don't worry, how come we are not familiar with the state government, the bodyguard bureau eats this bowl of food--I just heard from Miss Zhao that those gentlemen went to Xu's house to get people very early, so I'm afraid After running this trip, if you still have time to go back to the state government office, it will be very difficult, there are hundreds of public servants, and I don’t know how to find someone.”

Zhao Mingzhi pondered for a while, and said, "This is easy to handle."

She paused, then drew four more circles on the ground with the dead branch, and said: "I remember their appearance - there are four of them in total, three of them should be eight feet one or two in stature, and one is particularly tall, about Eight feet three four, maybe even higher."

"The front hem of the robes of the three people who are slightly shorter is tucked around the waist, and the waist is tied with an oval card, which looks like wooden, the card color is black, the words are too far apart, and the writing is not clear. One of them seems to have a mole near the right beard on the lip. , a pair of protruding ears."

"The other tall man has thin beard and hair, his head is a little bald, and his back is a bit hunchback..."

When Zhao Mingzhi saw that Li Xun's hands were in shackles, she immediately knew it was bad. She already had a good memory, so she deliberately took care to repeat it at this time, and described each person's characteristics in great detail.

Everyone wrote down one by one, one bodyguard recommended himself to go to the post station to inquire about news, and the other two accepted the errands to go to the state government for interrogation.

The three walked side by side, ready to lead the horses, just turned out of the alley, trotting non-stop, but they all breathed a sigh of relief, hearing the voice, and seeing the expressions of the people beside them, they were all amused.

"I didn't dare to speak just now!" One of them whispered while running, "This Miss Zhao's family is really a businessman, isn't she a detective in a big yamen? Such a memory!"

He complained again: "I was so convinced, but in the end, you were like one or two quails, and you didn't even make a sound, so I didn't dare to speak when I saw it."

"What are you boasting about? I have no words in my head! I have never seen such a thing. I am stupid and only use brute force. I just heard what she said. People are stupid and can't even speak. How can you boast? You Why don't you brag and ask me to learn?"

"Who isn't? It's not that the idea she said is hard to think about. It's hard to think about it so quickly and it's very feasible. I have seen many rich and wealthy businessmen before, and they are very polite in receiving people and things. Compared with her—that's all." , it’s not easy to compare customers with each other.”

"Aren't those methods difficult to think of? Then you come to think of one too?"

"roll!"

"It's a pity that such a character has such a face..."

"It's nothing. I just listened to her teaching so much, and when I looked at the face, I didn't think it was so difficult to see. In fact, as long as I don't stare at the black part on the side, it's quite eye-catching——My face No, it’s yellow and black, the threshold for a matchmaker’s wife has been broken in the past two years!”

"Bah, you have the guts to boast about your ugly face! Hey! Don't grab my horse!"
