('Qiu Laosi, who is nearly fifty years old, was originally a sugar-coated haws seller. In his early years, he relied on this small business to support his family. Now his two daughters are married and they only live with their wives. The family is relatively well-off and occasionally rests.

Two days ago. Today, he originally planned to rest at home for a day, but a policeman came to the door and asked him and his wife to go to the Yamen. But halfway through, the policeman stopped at a tavern and said that he wanted to eat first.

The couple thought that the guard wanted to blackmail them for a meal, saying that they didn't bring any money when they went out and wanted to go home to get it. However, the guard actually said that they should pay the bill and you can just come and eat. This made the old couple confused.

Little did they know that six men had gathered in their home, five of them hid in the dark, and the other one put on Qiu Laosi's clothes and pretended to sleep on the bed. This man was none other than

Tongzhou.

The boy was lying on the kang, his eyes half closed, and he was very alert, paying attention to any noises around him. [Search for the latest updates at z

As he was lying down, he suddenly heard a slight noise coming from the yard, but based on his experience, he could immediately conclude that it was the sound of jumping over the wall. Then, the door creaked softly, and two young men walked out one after another.

The two men walked in very slowly. After entering, they went straight to the main room, which was the room where Tong Zhou was currently lying.

The door was gently opened, and one of them looked inside. Seeing someone lying sleeping in the room, he immediately took out his dagger and walked in. When he came to the kang, the man raised his dagger and went straight to stab the child's chest.

, Tong Zhou was already prepared, rolled to the side suddenly, raised his leg and kicked the opponent's wrist.

The man was startled when he saw the boy's reaction. His moves made him old, but he couldn't recover in time. He was kicked by the boy, and the dagger fell from his hand and hit the canopy.

"The other person knows Kung Fu, let's attack together!" The dagger flew out, and the man didn't realize that he had been fooled, so he shouted loudly. The man who came with him also took out his dagger and rushed forward.

Tong Zhou stood up like a carp and shouted: "What are you waiting for! Get it for me!"

The five people who were hiding in the dark had come out a long time ago. Four of them were outside and rushed in. There was another person in the main room who was hiding in the cupboard. When he heard the man's cry, he opened the cupboard door and grabbed it.

come out.

Seeing so many people on their faces, the two men realized that they had fallen into the trap, but it was already over. Those who came with Tong Zhou were Li Zhong, Kong Ren, Yan Bai, Hua Song, and Xin Zhen, all of whom were masters of the escort agency. Come up

Three punches and two kicks knocked the two of them to the ground.

The boy got off the bed, stepped on a man and said, "Who asked you to assassinate him?"

When the two men heard this, they were stunned for a moment, and then one of them said: "I'm afraid I'll scare you to death if I tell you. If you're wise, let me go as soon as possible, otherwise you won't be able to eat and walk around!"

"Haha..." Tong Zhou chuckled lightly and said, "I would like to ask you, who is so powerful that he can make me walk around without food!"

"Yes..." The man was about to show off his pride when the man lying next to him nudged him with his elbow. Only then did the man understand and didn't say a word.

"You don't say anything, do you think I don't know who sent you? Go with me, and when we get there, I'll beat you even if you don't want to say it!" After Tong Zhou finished speaking, he asked Li Zhong to take out the already

The prepared ropes were used to tie the two men tightly, and then they were escorted to the governor's Yamen.

It was now noon. Yue Su was still accompanying Zou Jiaren and his son in the back hall. Seeing that Tong Zhou had not come back yet, he deliberately said: "It's not early, it's time to have lunch. The students have a simple meal here, I hope the teacher will not dislike it."

"Bingyan, what are you talking about? Thank you very much, my teacher."

The three of them went to the flower hall to have dinner. After just two bites, the maid Mei'er ran over and said that the madam had invited her. Yue Su and Zou Jiaren said a few polite words, then stood up and left the table, leaving the flower hall. He left the flower hall and did not go to the backyard.

Instead, he walked around in a circle, sent Mei'er away, and walked forward alone. When he arrived at the back office, he went directly into the second hall. Both sides of the second hall were full of servants, and there were two men kneeling in the middle, but these two

The man is tied up with five flowers.

When Tong Zhou saw Yue Su coming in, he immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, as expected, someone went to assassinate Qiu Laosi and has been captured."

Yue Su nodded and said, "Well done." After saying that, he walked straight to the back of the public case and sat down.

It turned out that all of this was a trap set up by Yue Su. He first invited Zou Jiaren and his son to work out Zou Feng's handwriting, and then Yang Yishan imitated Zou Feng's handwriting and wrote a letter to Zhu Gongzong and asked Cao Yu to deliver it.

In order to lure the snake out of the hole, Zhu Gongxu fell into the trap and sent two guards to assassinate Qiu Laosi. However, they were caught by Tong Zhou and others who were ambushing there. At noon, Tong Zhou and others had escorted the two assassins back.

At the Yamen, Yue Su had already given instructions that there was no need to circulate the news when he came back, and that he would be temporarily detained in the duty room until he and Zou Jiaren and his son went to the flower hall to have dinner, and then they were taken into the second hall.

The trial begins.

This game is very simple, but very effective. It is easy to lure the snake out of the hole, and everything is under control. However, Yue Su is not sure which family the person who assassinated him is. At first, he was more inclined to believe that it was the palace, but now

, because after seeing Zou Feng who was blind in one eye, his target changed.

Although the battle report after the Battle of Semen in Yanshi County did not mention whose eyes were shot, it only said that many people were shot and injured. It is difficult to verify whether any of them were blinded. However, Zou Jiaren said that his son was released during the New Year.

Yue Su didn't believe that Zou Feng was blinded during the firecracker. With this hypothesis, Yue Su's target of attack changed somewhat. If you want to determine how Zou Feng became blind, it's actually easy to do. All you need to do is bring in everyone from Zou's house.

The answer can be found after a short talk, but Yue Su really doesn't want to break up with Zou Jiaren now.

Sitting behind the public case, Yue Su said coldly: "Whose surnames do you two have, and who ordered you to assassinate Qiu Laosi?"

The two men knelt on the ground and glanced at each other, but neither of them spoke.

"I'm a tough guy. I don't have the time to talk nonsense with you. Since I won't eat the toast, I'll drink the fine wine as a penalty." After saying that, Yue Su shouted loudly, "Left and right! I'll serve you with sticks!"

Clamping with sticks is a more advanced criminal law than beating with boards. Yue Su usually uses it when the evidence is solid and the other party refuses to admit his guilt. Now that the two guys assassinated Qiu Laosi, the case is solid, so why are you so polite? Let's go straight to it.

punishment.

The officers on both sides roared, picked up the clamping sticks, walked forward, pushed the two people to the ground, lifted their legs, and put the clamping sticks on their legs. They pulled hard to both sides, and heard "Gah" and "Gah".

With two sounds, the two men fainted from the pain one after another.

The officers were well-trained, and without waiting for Yue Su's instructions, they brought cold water and poured cold water on the two of them. After they woke up, they both screamed in pain, "Kill me..."

Normally at this time, Yue Su would ask to see if the prisoner could be recruited. But this time, he didn't say a word. He didn't speak. The officer below also knew what to do. He once again raised the two's calves and pulled them off.

Put away the stick.

"Ah..." "Ah..."...

The two men screamed in pain, and their heads were covered in cold sweat. The first time they were tortured, they fainted immediately, but the second time was not that easy. The excruciating pain made the two of them struggle to survive. Without waiting for Yue Su to ask,

Whether they wanted to move or not, they all shouted in unison: "Hit! I'll move..."

Hearing that the two men were willing to fight, Yue Su raised his hand and signaled the officers to retreat, saying: "Is this right? Why bother to fight? Who sent you?"

"We were sent by the Crown Prince of Zhou." A man answered truthfully.

"Why did he ask you to kill Qiu Laosi?" Yue Su asked.

"This little one doesn't know. The young prince only asked us to go to Dama Hutong and kill Qiu Laosi, who sells candied haws."

"Okay. Tell me your names, your duties in the palace, and what the prince said when he ordered you." Yue Su said.

"The younger one's name is Mao Sheng, and his name is Yan Huan. Both of us are the prince's bodyguards. The prince called us to his palace this morning and ordered me to go to Dama Alley to kill Qiu Laosi, who sells candied haws.

, He said he must do it neatly and he will be rewarded heavily when he comes back." The man answered the questions raised by Yue Su one by one.

After answering, Yue Su said: "Let the two of them sign it."

After Yang Yishan finished writing the confession, he asked the two of them to sign and stamp it. Then, Yue Su gave the order, "Push the two of them into the prison, order all the troops, and follow me to the Zhou Palace. As for Mr. Zou and his son, Jin Chan, and Zhong Yue in the Houhua Hall,

You two will take care of it for me. I just said that my wife has something to do with me and asked them to have tea in the flower hall. I will ask them to come out when the headquarters comes back."

"Yes, sir!"

Tong Zhou and Tie Qiu went to gather the troops and horses, while Yang Yishan and Jin Chan went to the courtyard to wait at any time. After the troops and horses were gathered, Yue Su took a sedan chair to the Prince of Zhou's Mansion.

Along the way, gongs were sounded to clear the way, attracting hundreds of people to watch. Arriving at the main gate of the palace, Yue Su got off the sedan and walked to the door holding the sword above. Yin Zhu, Tong Qiu, Li Haoquan were waiting on the side, and hundreds of guards were behind him.

The army holds weapons in hand and is majestic.

This formation shocked the palace guards, but they had seen this formation once, and they knew it was Mr. Yue who came, but they were just wondering why he came here again for this reason. Moreover, there was such a big formation,

It's always like wanting to fight.

Because they knew each other, a guard came up and said with a smile: "Master Yue, I wonder what you want to do when you come to the house?"

Tong Zhou took out the name card, handed it to the guard, and said: "This is the name card of my family. Please tell King Zhou Qiansui that my family is here to handle the case."

His words were neither soft nor hard. The guard took the name card, nodded and said: "Sir, please wait a moment. I will go in and pass the message."

After saying that, the guard hurried in. After all, he also knew the name of 'Yue Shatou', especially this time he said he was here to handle a case. It seemed that it was a matter of great importance, so how could he dare to neglect it.

After a while, the chief clerk came out to respond. As soon as he went out this time, he saw Yue Su holding Shang Fang's sword. Knowing that the person who came was not good, he said politely: "Yue Shaobao, the prince has invited you and is waiting for you in Yin'an Hall. Please follow.

I'll come."
