Asking the heavens starts with Xiaoao

Chapter 96 Cause of Death
Wang Zhi was dressed as a villager, and Shi Shiran walked into a room in Yuanlai Inn in Minhou County, grabbed the teapot on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and "Gulu" drank it all in one gulp.

Liu Ji at the desk dropped the letter he was writing, walked over and said, "How is it, have you figured everything out?"

Wang Zhi wiped his mouth and said: "I've figured it out, the county lieutenant and his son are really daring, they dare to impersonate their names for this kind of credit!"

Liu Ji asked: "How about the specifics? Please tell me the palm prints in detail!"

Wang Zhi said: "There is a small village in Minhou County, about [-] miles away from the capital city of Fuzhou. A few months ago, the Wuhushan bandits led a group of Mongolians to massacre the village. Unfortunately, the whole village was killed. Only the doctor His daughter went to Fuzhou to purchase medicinal materials and escaped unharmed."

Liu Ji said: "This matter has something to do with this woman?"

Wang Zhi said: "Exactly, this doctor rescued a young man surnamed Yue a few months ago. The young man went to Fuzhou with the woman that day."

"When he returned a few days later, the young man saw the tragic situation in the village, and out of righteous indignation, he attacked and killed the bandits alone. No one slipped through the net. The Mongols also died under the sword of this young man."

Liu Ji clicked his tongue and said: "One person killed more than [-] people, many of them were Mongolian archery masters. Hey, this person's martial arts is really strong!"

Wang Zhi shook his head and said, "But it's not necessarily true. A first-rate master in the Jianghu can do this. There are not many such masters in the Jianghu, there are hundreds of them."

Liu Jiwei: "This is troublesome. Where can I find this young man among so many people? If the ambition is in the court, it's better to talk about it."

Wang Zhi said: "Yes, it's a pity that the young man's ambition is not in the court, so he brushed off his clothes and left."

"The county lieutenant's father took part in handling the doctor's funeral that day, found out about it, and told his county lieutenant's son that the two of them actually claimed the young man's merits to defraud the court of rewards!"

Liu Ji pondered for a while, and said: "It seems that the truth of this matter has been revealed, what are you going to do with the palm print?"

"Of course it is to arrest the father and son of the county lieutenant, count their crimes, and set an example!" Wang Zhi raised his eyebrows and said: "This time the Zajia privately visited the father and son, and the villagers complained a lot about the father and son. It is simply lawless to abuse ordinary people!"

"The county magistrate has been lying to others, but the magistrate has not noticed it for several years. He is really confused! This county magistrate should also be guilty of the same crime!"

Liu Ji made a decisive decision: "Okay! According to the palm print, I will go straight to the county office tomorrow to reveal my identity. First, I will take down the confused county magistrate, and then I will take down the county lieutenant, father and son."

"The county magistrate belongs to the official body, so he can only be detained first, waiting to be released; the county lieutenant, father and son, directly list their crimes, and declare the official punishment!"

"Take the palm print of the county government office to the village of Wuhu Mountain and restore the scene. We must find out about the Mongols!"

"Very good!" Wang Zhi clapped his hands and said, "Tomorrow Zajia will bring the confidants of the Yuma Supervisor to Wuhu Mountain to search carefully, and we will definitely find out about this matter!"

Liu Ji said: "That's it, it's settled! Take a soldier who has been to Wuhu Mountain with the palm print, and ask him to restore the scene when the time comes!"

Wang Zhi said: "There is no need for Liu Shilang to worry, the miscellaneous family will take care of it."

At present, the two of them have made a plan, and they rested separately, without talking for a night.

In the morning of the second day, the two acted according to their plan, and by noon, Wang Zhi had successfully arrived at the village of Wuhu Mountain.

"Where were the corpses of the bandits found?" Wang Zhi asked.

A soldier who came to Wuhu Mountain with the county captain to clean up the battlefield said: "There are two at the gate, one is hanging on the flagpole, four are down in the training ground, and 31 are in the hall. A total of 38 people."

Wang Zhi watched everyone in the Yumajian reset their positions one by one, and said: "This man is clean and ruthless. He fought against 38 people alone, and he didn't make one escape. Hey, he is really a master!"

He turned around again and said, "Let's go to Xishan Col, there's nothing to see here!"

The crowd turned to go to the Xishan Col. Wang Zhi made a gesture, and the Yumajian people spread out to search. After a while, a voice came from the mountain on the right: "Palmprint! A new grave was found here!"

Wang Zhi came up to the mountainside and saw people gathered around a grave, Wang Zhi ordered: "Dig the grave!"

Everyone in the horse guard was ordered to dig hard, and after a while, Morun Khan's body was exposed, which was already rotten.

Wang stared at the golden crown on Morun Khan's head, ignored the rotten smell from the body, took off the golden crown, held it in his hand and looked at it, and said: "This person should be the little Mongolian prince. I really can’t wear it.”

"Search carefully! Don't miss any place!"

Everyone responded loudly, and after a while, a soldier of the horse guard presented a golden seal and said: "Palmprint, I found this in this man's pocket!"

Wang Zhi turned the gold seal upside down and engraved a few words in Mongolian script on it.Wang Zhi is proficient in Mongolian characters, and he saw that the engraving on the gold seal reads "Por Ji Jin Tuo Gu Si Meng Ke".

"Molun Khan!" Wang Zhi not only exclaimed.

"Molun Khan!" In the county government office, Liu Ji looked at the golden seal in his hand and said in shock: "This person is actually Morun Khan! Didn't he already die at Maolihai's hands?"

Wang Zhi said: "It seems that the news is wrong. Judging from the things found, this person must be Morun Khan, but why did he appear here?"

The two of them thought hard and couldn't figure out how Morun Khan would appear here, so they had no choice but to give up in the end.

Wang Zhi was silent for a while, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration: "Those two young people!"

Liu Ji asked suspiciously, "What?"

Wang Zhi said excitedly: "The two young men we met on the road when we came here! At that time, Liu Shilang told the miscellaneous family not to make extra troubles."

Liu Ji finally remembered and asked, "What's wrong with these two?"

Wang Zhi said: "The age of the two people matches the age of the two people in the villagers' mouths, and the horse they ride is good, with a high neck and long legs. It looks like a good horse from the Western Regions!"

"The color of the horse also matches the color of the horse in the villagers' mouth!" Wang Zhi smashed his palm and said, "It's a pity that I didn't know it in person, so I missed it!"

Liu Ji also said angrily: "Yes, if we can find this person, we will know why Morun Khan appeared here!"

Wang Zhidao: "No matter what, report this matter to Wansui first, and then act according to the order after Wansui's order comes. My horse supervisor will secretly investigate these two people first, and once we find out their whereabouts, we can Find out why Morun Khan is here!"

Liu Ji said: "That's the only way to go. It seems that you and I are going to celebrate the New Year in Fuzhou."

The two of them never imagined that in the next few years, the two of them tried all kinds of means, but they still couldn't find the trace of Yue Buqun and Murong Xian'er.

This matter has also become a regret in the hearts of the two of them for several years.
