Chapter 138

After the head was cut off and the box was packed, Ji Tong took the box away with someone.

At that time, except Zhifu Ning, everyone's attention was on the cremation of the Japanese pirates' corpses.

The magistrate Ning wanted to stop him, but he couldn't say it in front of the people.He looked around at the expressions of the people around him, seeing the respectful expressions on their faces, his heart sank, and he looked at Ji Sibo with a tinge of gloom.

The status of this person in the hearts of the people is even higher than that of the magistrate.

Ji Sibo looked at the prefect of Ning from the corner of his eyes, smiled coldly in his heart, and deliberately stayed at the entrance of the vegetable market, waiting until more than 300 corpses were burned to ashes before planning to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, the people spontaneously gave way.

Ning Zhifu stood for more than two hours, his legs were numb, seeing that Ji Sibo was finally willing to leave this ghostly place, he hurried to catch up.

"Master Ji, Lord Ji."

Ji Sibo stopped in his tracks, and looked at Zhifu Ning suspiciously, "I don't know if Master Ning called me, what's the matter?"

Ning Zhifu saw that there were finally no people around, and asked in a low voice: "Master Ji, where did Master Song go?"

Ji Sibo suddenly showed a sad expression, "Lord Ning, the Japanese pirates attacked last night. Master Song led Niu and the others to resist, but they were killed by the Japanese pirates. Their bodies are still in the camp."

Prefect Ning blurted out, "Impossible!"

Ji Sibo looked at him suspiciously, "What does Master Ning mean by saying it's impossible?"

Prefect Ning's expression froze, and he reluctantly twitched the corners of his mouth, "I mean... how did Mr. Song die? This officer is very shocked by this."

Ji Sibo sighed again, "I also hope that this is not true, but Master Song's corpses are really in the camp, and I haven't had time to tell their families. If Master Ning doesn't believe it, why don't you follow me?" Go back to the camp and have a look? Lord Ning might as well send Master Song off for the last time."

Ning Zhifu nodded in disbelief, "Okay, I will follow you to the camp."

When he followed Ji Sibo to the camp, he saw corpses all over the place, and his eyes widened, "How could so many people die?"

Ji Sibo looked at him puzzled, "The Japanese pirates attacked, there are more than [-] people, these are the government soldiers who were killed by the Japanese pirates when they were fighting against the Japanese pirates, I am also very sad, those damn Japanese pirates!"

He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and looked resentful, "As long as the Japanese pirates dare to come, I will kill one if they come, and I will kill a pair if they come!"

Ning Zhifu was already in a state of confusion, the corpses in front of him almost made his vision go dark, especially when he saw that not only Song Xing, but also Niu Lezhi, Wei Hetai, and Cai Liang were dead, he almost fainted.

How could they die?How could the Japanese kill them?Could it be that the Japanese didn't want to cooperate with them, so they killed people to silence them?
No, no, this is not right, they shipped a batch of goods a few days ago, and those Japanese asked them to send them another batch of goods as soon as possible, how could they suddenly turn their faces?
In Ning Zhifu's messy mind, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared, and he discovered a strange place!

Why Song Xing and the others are dead, but Ji Sibo is alive?

Ning Zhifu turned his head to look at this young military officer. Compared with the three months since he came to Ningbo Mansion, the immaturity on his face has completely disappeared, leaving only perseverance and iron blood, "Master Ji, why did Mr. Song and the others go all together?" Fight against Japanese pirates?"

Ji Sibo looked at him strangely, "Lord Ning asked this question so that Master Song is the commander of the government soldiers. The duty of the government soldiers is to protect the people of Ningbo Mansion. If there are Japanese pirates attacking, he will of course take the government soldiers to stop them. "

Ning Zhifu choked, this was right, he couldn't find the words to refute for a while, could he say that Song Xing knew those Japanese people, and it was impossible for them to hurt him?
Ning Zhifu was full of words, but he couldn't ask a word in front of Ji Sibo.

He looked deeply at the corpses of Song Xing and others. There was still a look of fear and despair on Song Xing's face. He couldn't imagine what Song Xing had gone through before his death to make him show this look.

The magistrate Ren Ning wanted to break his head, but he couldn't think of the truth of last night.Because Song Xing decided to do something to Ji Sibo, he didn't tell Zhifu Ning at all.

Ning Zhifu's mind is very confused, but he knows one thing: something big is going to happen!The death of Song Xing and others who were in charge of guarding the city gate to inspect and ship goods will definitely affect smuggling.And with so many Japanese dead, I don't know what's going on with Yamada Nobu.

It is hateful that it is Song Xing who usually contacted Nobu Yamada, and Ning Zhifu could not contact Nobu Yamada, so he asked him to find out why more than 300 Japanese were sent to attack.

No, he has to go back and write a letter to inform the adults in Jingli that something happened in Ningbo Mansion.

Intuitively, Zhifu Ning felt that there was something strange about Song Xing's death, and Ji Sibo was the first person he suspected.

Thinking about it this way, Zhifu Ning looked at Ji Sibo's eyes with a hint of vigilance.

"Master Ji, I remembered that the Yamen still had business to deal with, so I left first."

With a heart of defense, Ning Zhifu dared not stay any longer, and originally planned to ask about what happened last night, but he stopped asking.Regardless of Ji Sibo's persuasion, he hurriedly took people away.

After Ji Sibo left, his expression became colder. Uncle Su should have sent someone to send the head, his memorial, and the letter to the Fourth Prince to the capital.

I don't know if my aunt can stop Ning Zhifu's letter.

Ji Sibo looked back at the corpses of Song Xing and others, and ordered: "Go, follow me to the Song family, Niu family, Wei family, and Cai family to deliver the remains."

When Ji Sibo took people to these four houses, there were loud cries.

Because the government army is now leaderless, Ji Sibo is worried about those government soldiers, and he is afraid that the Japanese will come again, so he dare not go back to the house at night, so he leads Ji Tong and the others to strictly check the curfew to guard against the Japanese.

When the curfew was over, he returned to the house covered in fog, and was surprised to see his aunt in the front yard.

"Auntie, are you up so early?"

Ji Fushou shook his head, "The letter sent by the prefect of Ning has been stopped."

She raised the letter paper in her hand and handed it to Ji Sibo.

Ning Zhifu knew something big happened, so he wrote a letter to inform the most valuable person in the smuggling.

The letter was secretly taken away by Ye Ying after the messenger fell asleep at night, and rushed back overnight, waking Ji Fushou up.

After Ji Fushou read it, he immediately imitated and wrote another letter in Ning Zhifu's handwriting, and Nighthawk left overnight to rush back to the inn to put the forged letter back.

Fortunately, Ji Sibo held up Prefect Ning for almost a whole day, and it was almost evening when Prefect Ning sent someone to deliver the letter. The sender was not good at traveling at night, so he stopped in a small town, so he exchanged letters back and forth for Nighthawk Opportunity.

After taking it, Ji Sibo took a look, and gasped, "The big man involved in the smuggling is actually him?"

The person who received the letter was Wang Yu, who was the secretary of the court, the prince and grand master, and the most powerful person in the generation of the Wang family in Taiyuan.
