Demon detective

Chapter 129
For tonight's massacre, Han Wentao had already removed the sentry post.

Therefore, this sudden carriage drove straight in and drove directly to the gate of the yamen.

This is a rather luxurious carriage. The four sides of the carriage are wrapped in expensive and exquisite silk, and the windows are inlaid with gold and treasures. One can see that the people sitting in the carriage are either rich or noble.

Seeing the sudden carriage, the people in black hurriedly dodged to hide in the shadow of the corner.

"Call..."

The coachman reined in the rope and made the carriage stop firmly at the gate of the yamen.

The curtain of the car was opened, and two people walked out from the inside. A man with a five-foot long sword got out of the car first, and behind him was an old man wearing a purple official robe and eunuch hat, walking slowly and aging.

In the shadows, all the men in black held their breath and stared at these two men.

Among them, someone has quietly raised the steel knife, as if about to strike.

However, the next second, when all the men in black saw something, they were all shocked.

They saw that the back of the dark blue robe worn by the young man was embroidered with a large Chinese character "Nei" with gold thread.

what……

All the men in black suddenly felt shuddering, and quickly put their backs against the wall, not daring to move again.

The word "nei" is embroidered on the back of the robe, indicating that this person is the inner guard.

However, those who dare to embroider the word "Nei" with gold silk can only be the emperor's cronies!
At this time, the young man helped the old man out of the car very respectfully, which undoubtedly shows that the old man's status is more noble.

Then, two little eunuchs unexpectedly got out of the car. They were holding something in their hands, and they all hugged each other tightly, for fear of being wet by the rain and snow.

"Hey..." The old man stretched his waist after getting out of the car, then looked at the entrance of the yamen and said curiously, "This Yanping County yamen is really peaceful, and there is no one on duty at the station!"

"Eunuch Lan," one of the young eunuchs hurriedly said, "I'll go in and pass it on right now!"

"The clothes are all wet, what are you talking about?" The old man waved his hands and said, "Hurry up and get warm!"

So, with the support of the young man, several people entered the Yamen, leaving only the driver and the carriage.

The coachman sat motionless under the carport, as if waiting for someone to come and deal with it.

This……

The people in black were even more at a loss, and even if they had ten more guts, they would not dare to touch the emperor's inner guard.

Therefore, the leading man in black had no choice but to make a retreat gesture, and all the men in black carefully retreated along the shadow of the street...

After exiting, the leader of the man in black hurried back to the inn as fast as he could, intending to report to Lord Inspector.

But as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the inn, he saw Han Wentao, governor of Songzhou, Sima Xin, who joined the army, and Cai Jin, the sheriff of Daguan County, hurrying towards him.

With that anxious look, it seemed that something serious had happened.

"My lord..." The man in black rushed to Han Wentao's side and reported what he saw and heard truthfully.

"Understood!" But seeing Han Wentao's pale face and fear in his eyes, he said, "I have received the news, and we need to go to the Yanping County Government immediately—to receive the order!!!"

……

A quarter of an hour later, Han Wentao and others rushed to the Yanping County Government Office.

After entering the hall, I saw that the hall was brightly lit. The county magistrate Song Zhili, the county magistrate Chen Houlu, and the county government officials and arresters were all waiting in the hall.

And in the upper seat of the court, sat the old man called Eunuch Lan, behind him stood two young eunuchs, and the young man with a five-foot long sword stood beside the old man.

At this moment, the lights were bright, and only then did I realize that the young man had star eyebrows and sword eyes, a heroic spirit, and a good-looking talent.

Seeing the old man, Han Wentao hurriedly took Sima Xin and Cai Jin forward to salute, and declared his family name to show his identity.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's get down to business first!" The old man stood up tremblingly, took the golden scroll handed over by the little eunuch, and shouted, "The imperial decree has arrived!"

Everyone hurriedly fell to their knees.

Xu Zhen thought they had to shout something like "Long live my emperor", but everyone just knelt down without saying anything.

"By God's fortune, the emperor said:" The old man unfolded the imperial decree and said, "I have recently heard that Song Zhili, the magistrate of Yanping County, is not afraid of power, sweeps up evil and evil, and is deeply supported by the people. I am very relieved, and I am hereby promoted to the post of governor of Qizhou , Choose a date to take office. Reward a piece of Yusheng Yingpao and a piece of golden peach. Wangqing abides by the principle and lives up to the holy hope.

"Also: Chen Houlu, the Prime Minister of Yanping County, has made great contributions to his assistance and was promoted to the magistrate of Yanping County. He will receive a bounty belt and a hundred pieces of silk. This is my honor!"

what……

Song Zhili was so stupid that he didn't respond for a long time.

"Thank you...thank you! No," Chen Houlu came to his senses, but he was a little incoherent, "I kneel down to thank you for your grace, long live my emperor! Woo..."

Behind, there was a cry...

"Thank you Lord Long En, kowtow to thank heaven," Song Zhili realized then, and quickly kowtowed.

"Don't get up first," the old man took out another document from his sleeve, and said, "The Holy Majesty has also attached a handbook, please listen to it. The letter: Cui Xiaotian set up a casino privately to deceive the people, with ulterior motives, and the crime will not be punished. Don't be angry with the people..."

what! ?

Before the handwriting was finished, Han Wentao suddenly felt his world spinning and he almost fell to the ground.

Afterwards, there are some related matters related to dealing with Cui Xiaotian, such as the need for the officials of Songzhou to be united, the trial must be as soon as possible, and Cui Xiaotian's party members should be severely punished to serve as an example.

After finishing the reading, the old man signaled everyone to stand up, and asked Song Zhili to take over the imperial decree and handwriting.

After seeing that Han Wentao, the governor of Songzhou, did not get up for a long time, he turned to Han Wentao and said, "It is right for the governor of Han to do this. Yanping, we came here non-stop.

"It seems that Lord Inspector is also very concerned about this case!"

Han Wentao's face was scorched, and he hurriedly got up tremblingly, snatching the imperial decree and handwriting from Song Zhili's hand without any regard for face, and carefully checked it from beginning to end.

However, how can the imperial decree and the handbook be false, and he was immediately frightened, his face turned pale, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Seeing this, the old man showed displeasure, and immediately took out a gold medal from his bosom, and said to Inspector Han Wentao, "This old man is Lan Yanxi, the supervisor of ceremonies, and this is Mei Dong, the chieftain of the Imperial Palace."

After finishing speaking, he handed the gold medal to Han Wentao, which means you can check it to see if I am a fake?
Eunuch Lan, the supervisor of ceremonies, is well-known, and everyone knows that he is the most popular person in the current emperor.

And the cabinet leader of the Neiwei Mansion is even more terrible. Although his rank is not as high as that of the governor, he is the emperor's close minister. Who would dare to offend him?
Only then did Han Wentao realize his recklessness, and hurriedly bowed ninety degrees, almost kneeling. He apologized to the old man repeatedly: "Don't dare, I don't dare, I don't dare to be an official, I hope that Eunuch Lan will forgive me!"

"Hmph," Eunuch Lan put away the gold medal, and turned to Song Zhili and said, "Congratulations to Song Changshi, the Holy Majesty personally wrote the edict, the future is boundless, the future is boundless!"

"I..." Song Zhili had never seen such a high-ranking official before, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "How can a humble job be done, what can be done with such virtue... woo woo..."

Song Zhili couldn't hold back any longer, and cried out in the same excitement.

"Get up quickly," Eunuch Lan said with a smile, "The two major cases in Yanping County are of great concern to the Holy Majesty, so I have also taken the post of supervisor, and I can't go back until I have completely solved Cui Xiaotian. .

"So, speed up, Song Changshi, I have old arms and legs, I really can't keep an eye on it after a long time... um..."

When Eunuch Lan was talking, he found that Song Zhili was muttering something incessantly.

Listening carefully, he seemed to be chanting two prophecies: "When misfortune comes, blessings depend on it, and blessings come when misfortunes lie there...but do good deeds, don't ask about the future..."
