Shi Ling immediately smiled and said, "Master Han misunderstood. Shi came here not to make things difficult for the Duwei Mansion, but to be ordered by the old marquis to capture the traitor."

"Rebel?" Han Yunong immediately closed the smile on his face: "I don't understand what Commander Shi said. When will there be traitors in the city?"

Shi Ling said: "Maybe Han Duwei didn't know that last night, someone assassinated the young master. Although he only injured the young master, Mr. Shen Shuilang, the visitor of the Hou Mansion, was killed."

Han Yunong's face suddenly changed and he said in surprise: "Is Lang Shenshui dead?"

Seeing Han Yunong's reaction, Shi Ling seemed to be unaware that Lang Shenshui was killed, and nodded slightly and said, "That's right. There are two assassins in total...!" After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "To be precise, there were three assassins last night. One of them failed to assassin and was rescued by his accomplices. However, another assassin lurked at the scene. It was the young master and Mr. Lang who thought it had escaped, but they had a backup plan. The assassin accidentally killed Mr. Lang, and he was going to assassinate the young master. Fortunately, the young master was lucky and escaped, but the assassin also escaped in the chaos."

Han Yunong locked his eyebrows and said, "Assassination Young Master, that's naturally a big thief. Commander Shi, can the thief still be in the city?"

Shi Ling nodded and said, "To be honest, it was fortunate that the assassination was at night. Wei Du Han knew that the city gate could not be opened at night in Guicheng, and it would take until Mao hour to open the city. Before that, no one could get out of the city. After receiving the news, Shi brought people to the city at night, entered the city before Mao hour, and immediately blocked the entire ghost city. The four gates were also controlled by Shi's people. The city gate would never be opened until the murderer was found. Therefore, after the assassination, the murderer had no chance to escape from the city, and now he could only hide in the city."

"It should be like this." Han Yunong immediately said: "The Duwei Mansion has the responsibility to assist the Duwei Mansion in quelling rebellion. Now there are thieves in the city. The Duwei Mansion naturally has no choice but to assist in the arrest of the criminals." He took a step forward and asked: "Teacher Shi brought people to the Duwei Mansion. Could it be that he wanted to discuss with Han what to do next?"

Shi Ling smiled and said, "This time we have enough people to capture the murderer. And just now, Shi has sent someone to post a wanted order in the streets and alleys of the city to search for the murderer together. As long as you can provide clues or even catch the murderer, the old marquis will be rewarded with great rewards regardless of life or death."

"Wait a minute." Han Yunong immediately said: "Commander Shi, you said you have sent someone to post a wanted order. Have you already known who the assassin is? Otherwise, who is the wanted order? "

Shi Ling smiled and said, "The identity of the assassin is indeed clear. But... Wei Duwei Han probably couldn't think of who the assassin was."

Han Yunong sighed and said, "There are many business tasks these days and I am a little tired, so I went to bed early last night." He smiled bitterly: "Master Shi may not know that Lu Hong, the head of the Duwei Mansion, knew that Lu Hong, had violated the law and was detained and imprisoned. The head of the Ma Express, Meng Zimo, even resigned and returned to his hometown. Therefore, the inspections in the past two days were a little negligent. This is the responsibility of my Duwei Mansion. Who are you talking about assassin?"

"It is Meng Zimo, the captain of the Ma Kuaishou in front of the Duwei Mansion." Shi Ling stared at Han Yunong's eyes and said.

"What?" Han Yunong said in a lost voice: "Mencius Mo?"

Not only was Han Yunong shocked, but even the officers of the Duwei Office beside him were also shocked.

Shi Ling said solemnly: "When the assassin was committed last night, many people present recognized that the assassin was Meng Zimo, so it is undoubtedly true."

"It is absolutely impossible." A Ma Kuai Yama sneered: "You are saying nothing, what evidence is it that it is Meng... Mencius Mo? They are all your people. Can you say who it is who it is?"

The other detectives immediately shouted: "Yes, you slander people. Without evidence, how can you slander good people?"

Han Yunong raised his hand, signaled everyone to calm down, stared at Shi Ling and asked, "General Shi, did everyone see Meng Zimo's appearance on the spot, sure? Or maybe, at that time, you just suspected that the assassin was him?"

Of course, Shi Ling wanted to say that someone had seen Mencius Mo clearly.

But in fact, although Zhen Yujiang and others confirmed that the assassin was Meng Zimo, Meng Zimo had his face covered from beginning to end and didn't even say a word.

The incident happened, but it was not the only people from Zhen Hou’s mansion at the scene. There were many guests in the building hiding behind the door to peek.

If he said firmly that he had seen Meng Zimo's face and turned back to the court to send people to investigate the matter, and the facts he got were not consistent with the facts, then Zhen Hou's Mansion would naturally be charged with the crime of slandering.

Shi Ling did not directly answer Han Yunong's question, and asked back: "Han Duwei, is Meng Zimo in Duwei's Mansion now?"

"Since he has resigned and is no longer a member of the Duwei Mansion, he will not be here." Han Yunong said lightly: "And I am frank, if you don't have conclusive evidence to prove that he is an assassin, even if he is in the Duwei Mansion now, you will not be qualified to arrest him."

Shi Ling smiled and said, "If he is really in the Duwei Mansion, then ask Duwei Han to ask him out to prove his innocence."

"oh?"

"The murderer who assassinated last night was seriously injured." Shi Ling said: "He was cut at least three times on his back, and one on his waist. The most obvious thing was that he was also cut with his right leg." His face became cold: "If Meng Zimo was not injured, then the person who assassinated last night would naturally not be him, otherwise... he would be!"

Han Yunong calmly said, "If Meng Zimo was really in the Duwei Mansion, I really wanted him to come out and prove his innocence. But after he left the day before yesterday, I would never see him again." He said in a deep voice: "Did you see him?"

The detectives said in unison: "No."

"General Shi also heard it, but no one from the Duwei Mansion had seen it." Han Yunong raised his hand and said, "So please let General Shi lead your men and leave here immediately. You want to capture Meng Zimo, even if you go searching, I just hope you don't wrongly accuse the good people."

Shi Ling said: "Menzimo's residence has been sent to him, but Shi thinks he should be hiding in the Duwei Mansion now."

"Captain Shi is still preparing to lead people into the Duwei Mansion to search for it?" Han Yunong said coldly.

Although the Duwei Mansion was not very crowded, when he heard Han Yunong say this, he immediately pressed the hilt of the knife at his waist and glared at the wolf rider outside the main gate.

Shi Ling nodded and said, "I am just thinking about this. Han Duwei, I heard that not long ago, Meng Zimo was suspected of stealing in the Marquis' Mansion. In order to make Meng Zimo prove his innocence, the young master allowed your people to search in the Marquis' Mansion. I wonder if this is the case?"

"Young Master is magnanimous, this is indeed true."

"The Marquis' Mansion seems to be more important than the Duwei Mansion. The young master allows your people to search in the Duwei Mansion to make the truth clear." Shi Ling stared at Han Yunong without looking at him: "Now we are searching for the Duwei Mansion to make the truth clear, but we don't know why Duwei Han wanted to stop him?"

Han Yunong smiled and said, "Not everyone is as large as the young master. The young master can make the decision in Zhenhou’s mansion, but Han is not the Duwei Mansion."

"Maybe you are not the captain?"

"I am the chief lieutenant of the court." Han Yunong said: "So Commander Shi would lead people to search for the chief lieutenant's mansion for no reason, I am sorry I cannot agree."

Deputy Commander Yan Qing stared at Han Yunong coldly from beginning to end, and at this moment he couldn't help but say, "Master Han, what does it mean for no reason? We suspect that Meng Zimo is hiding in the Master Mansion at this moment, and went in to search and arrest him. Could it be that you can't understand?"

"I said, you have no conclusive evidence yet to prove that the assassin is Meng Zimo." Han Yunong said lightly: "Even if he is really an assassin, he is not a member of the Duwei Mansion, so it has nothing to do with the Duwei Mansion." He raised his hand and said: "General Shi, please take your people away quickly. After a long time, I'm afraid that it will be misunderstood to be rebellious. Come on, close the door!" He was about to retreat to the mansion.

Shi Ling snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "Come here, come and search for it. Today I want to see who can stop it."

Yan Qing had already pulled out his sword and said sternly: "Follow me to enter the mansion." The first to rush forward, the wolf cavalry soldiers also "knocked" to pull out their sabers and rushed to the Duwei Mansion behind Yan Qing.

Han Yunong didn't have a knife in his hand. When he saw the wolf cavalry rushing over, his face turned cold. He grabbed the sword of a yamen servant beside him, held it in his hand, pointed the blade forward, and said sternly: "Traveling into the Duwei Mansion, he will be punished for his crime of treason, and he will be killed without mercy!"

All the constables also pulled out their swords. Although the number was small, they were not afraid.

Both sides were at a strife, but at this moment, someone heard a shout, "Stop."

Everyone looked in the sound and saw a carriage coming quickly. One of them had already come out of the carriage, standing at the head of the carriage, shouting loudly: "Don't act rashly."

Han Yunong had already seen it clearly that the person coming was Du Hongsheng, the governor of Zhen County.

Although Du Hongsheng had no real power in his hands, he was the garrison of a county after all. When he appeared, the wolf cavalry would not be able to continue rushing forward.

The carriage arrived in front of the gate of the Duwei Mansion and blocked between the two sides. Du Hongsheng looked around and looked cold, looking at Shi Ling and asked, "Is it the old marquis's intention?"

"The old marquis has given orders to find the assassin at all costs." Shi Ling said solemnly: "The humble general suspects that the assassin is in the Duwei Mansion and is preparing to bring people into the mansion to search."

Du Hongsheng said: "I already know the matter. The old marquis sent someone to tell me that an assassin had assassinated the young master last night. Although the young master and others all said that the assassin was Meng Zimo, there was no conclusive evidence after all. Commander Shi, is it inappropriate for you to lead people into the Duwei Mansion like this?"

"Sir, assassination of young masters is of great importance. If the murderer is not caught, not only will it not be able to explain to the old marquis, but also to the court." Shi Ling said slowly: "When the old marquis was awarded the title, he made an oath to the court that in Zhen County, there were rioters and bandits who rebeled the party and would quell the rebellion for the court at all costs." He pointed to the main gate of the Duwei Mansion: "Now I suspect that the rebels are inside. We are ordered by the old marquis, and of course we must catch the murderer even if we overcome all difficulties."

"What if Meng Zimo is not inside?" Du Hongsheng frowned.

Shi Ling smiled faintly: "If you go in and search and find Meng Zimo, the general will naturally apologize to Han Duwei. If the county magistrate wants to sue him, the general will be willing to accept it."

Du Hongsheng said in a deep voice: "General Shi, the Duwei Mansion is directly affiliated with the Xiling Protectorate. If it were the original official, before searching, he would still report to the Protectorate. Otherwise, the dispute would arise afterwards, and I was worried that General Shi would not be able to bear the consequences."

"It's just death." Shi Ling smiled and said, "If the Lord of the Dugu feels that it's wrong to arrest the rebels, and even to execute the rebels, the lowly general will never complain. The Dugu is not targeting the Dugu Mansion, but the rebels. The Dugu Mansion does not assist the Dugu Mansion, and the lowly general cannot force it, but to stop it, the lowly general will never retreat." His face darkened, and he was about to wave his hand to let Yan Qing lead people in, but he heard a sharp voice from the carriage saying, "You really want to rush into the Dugu Mansion? You are really brave."
