The fog in Luofu Mountain in the early morning has not disappeared, and the top of the mountain is looming in the fog, hazy, like the Milky Way in the Yaochi.

It was cool in the mountains, and three thousand imperial guardsmen, armed with long spears, sabers at their waists, and covered with armor, rode quickly to the foot of Luofu Mountain.

At the foot of Luofu Mountain, Lin Tianxiao holds a silver spear in his hand, wearing black armor and red robes, with eyes like tigers and wolves, and unrivaled fortitude. Behind him are ten thousand light cavalry also covered in black armor, with bows and powerful crossbows, short spears and long knives ready to go.

The dust was flying in the mountains. Seeing such well-equipped light cavalry, General Zhonglang of the Imperial Guard couldn't help but sigh, "General Lin is really a hero of his generation. What a pity."

The Guards Lieutenant General reined in his horse and moved forward. Behind him, three thousand Guardsmen lined up on the ground, holding their guns and waiting.

Lin Tianxiao held the horse's belly between his legs, and the red-maned horse moved forward slowly. After they were two feet apart, they reined in the horse and stopped at the same time.

The Lieutenant General of the Royal Guards took the lead and said, "The Lieutenant General of the first phalanx of the Imperial Guards of Yin City, Meng Fang, paid homage to General Xiaoqi."

In terms of official position, Lin Tianxiao is a fourth-rank Xiaoqi general, and he is a sixth-rank Zhonglang general, two ranks higher, so he should be saluted by Meng Fang.

Lin Tianxiao nodded slightly, "Shuzhou Cavalry General Lin Tianxiao, General Meng, what do you mean?"

"The Yin soldiers took advantage of the passage, and a hundred ghosts walked at night, and the military rations disappeared mysteriously. Now the truth has been revealed. Someone did it deliberately in order to resell the military rations and obtain ill-gotten gains. Now that the major case has been solved, I have been ordered to arrest the murderer and bring him to justice.

"Meng Fang frowned and said.

After hearing this, Lin Tianxiao smiled disdainfully, "Catch the murderer and catch me here? How could you possibly think that there is a murderer in my camp, or that this general is the one behind it?"

Meng Fang frowned and said nothing, staring intently at Lin Tianxiao.

Lin Tianxiao didn't take it seriously at first, but after seeing the look in Meng Fang's eyes, he started to feel a little confused, "Is this really me, General?"

"General, do you know the king's title?" Meng Fang said slowly.

"Who is Wang Feng? I don't know him, general."

"This person is a person who resells military rations and has been arrested by his subordinates. According to what he said, the military rations were planned by you and Wang Aosheng in order to obtain ill-gotten gains and steal grain from Yindu with evil intentions." Meng Fangyi

Fan Yizheng's words made Lin Tianxiao feel a little dizzy.

"What? Wang Feng, this is Mr. Wang who resells military rations, do you believe what he says? Who am I, Lin Tianxiao, General Dafeng Xiaoqi!

Who is Mr. Wang Aosheng? We have been in Sichuan and Sichuan for twenty years, and we will take risks for three million shi of food? What a joke. You dare to believe such a blatant lie. It is really interesting." Lin Tianxiao said coldly, with a tone of voice.

It's all sarcastic.

Meng Fang continued: "At first, the general didn't believe it, until Wang Feng took out this thing."

After saying that, Meng Fang took out a waistband with the word "Lin" written on it, "He said this was a token you gave him. General Lin, what's your explanation?"

As soon as Lin Tianxiao saw the waist badge, he subconsciously touched his waist. His token disappeared at some point. This token was his certificate for mobilizing personal guards. He kept it in the military camp on weekdays. When he went to war,

I carry it with me, how could it appear in Meng Fang's hands?

At this time, Lin Tianxiao suddenly thought of his deputy general and turned to look at the army, "Vice General Zhang, Deputy General Zhang, Zhang Lan, Zhang Lan, come out..."

The soldiers looked at each other in shock. Zhang Lan had already disappeared, or he had disappeared since yesterday.

"It's really hard to guard against domestic thieves day and night. General Meng, this belt is mine, but I want to tell you that I, Lin Tianxiao, have never planned or directed anyone to steal military rations or take advantage of undercover soldiers.

I have no idea, this is a frame-up." Lin Tianxiao looked gloomy.

"General, the court will decide for itself whether this is a frame-up or not. Please come with us." Meng Fang said, cupping his hands.

Lin Tianxiao gritted his teeth. Now that the card was in Meng Fang's hand, he couldn't argue and was completely passive.

"General, don't make fearless resistance. For the sake of the people of Sichuan and Sichuan, please come with us..." Meng Fang bowed and handed over again, with an unusually humble attitude.

Seeing Meng Fang's attitude, Lin Tianxiao didn't know what to do no matter how angry he was. He hesitated for a long time and said slowly: "Can I trust you?"

Meng Fang was a little surprised when he was asked, and then nodded heavily, "General, you must behave properly, sit upright, and act according to orders. Public is public and private is private. We don't want to mix. General, can you say anything? If it is a private matter

, we will definitely help each other in the end."

Meng Fang still has some admiration for Lin Tianxiao. He fought in Miao territory for three times and became famous in one battle. At the beginning, he was just a young general in the Imperial Guard. After hearing this, he felt excited in his heart.

When he saw Lin Tianxiao's waist card, he didn't believe it. He didn't believe that a general would destroy his career and reputation for three million stones of food. He also hoped that the truth was not like this, but that someone deliberately framed him.

.

"I'll leave with you. You let the soldiers behind me go. They are more innocent than me." Lin Tianxiao looked at the soldiers behind him and said with a frown.

"As long as they don't know about it, the court will not make things difficult for them."

"Okay, I'll go with you." After saying that, Lin Tianxiao thrust hard, and the tip of the silver spear was completely inserted into the ground. He turned over and dismounted, stretched out his hand and lowered his head.

The soldiers behind him were stunned by this scene, "General, you can't dismount, you can't abandon your gun..."

Shouts came and went, and some soldiers even raised their crossbows and were ready to kill. Lin Tianxiao gave a loud shout. With this shout, everything fell silent.

"The army must not be in chaos!"

"yes."

The 20,000-strong army fell silent again. Looking at the scene in front of him, Meng Fang was shocked and ordered and banned. This is a strong army that can win the battle.

"General, please." Meng put down his horse and gave Lin Tianxiao enough respect.

Although it is said that the pure will be pure by itself, but when everything is dark, your pure will seem out of place, and the pure will become black, black and white, black and white, only black can be white. In this world of intrigues, your self-purified

It's just a kind of black.

…

Night falls, Guangdu City Prison.

Lin Tianxiao and Wang Aosheng were imprisoned in two different prisons. This was Lin Tianxiao's first time in the prison. The dim environment, disgusting environment, and the rancid smell in the air made people frown. Lin Tianxiao

Standing in the prison, quietly looking at the burning wick in front of me.

After a while, a familiar figure came to him, "Hey, isn't this General Lin? Wasn't he very majestic in the past few days? What happened today? Why did he end up in jail, hahaha."

The person who spoke was so sinister that Lin Tianxiao felt sick. Lin Tianxiao glanced at him lightly and snorted coldly, "The villain succeeds."

"You...Lin Tianxiao, you dare to speak harshly even when you are about to die." The person who spoke was really Feng Xi, a member of the Ministry of Punishment who was completely injured by Lin Tianxiao a few days ago.

"I, Lin Tianxiao, behave upright and sit upright. I want to bring down this general with such false accusations. What a wishful thinking!" Lin Tianxiao said disdainfully.

Feng Xi sneered and said: "How dare you speak so loudly like this? You trapped us in Luofu Mountain for more than ten days. During these ten days, we were almost eaten by mosquitoes. Do you know how terrifying the beast roared every night?

I, Feng Xi, said that you will repay me twice as much as you have suffered."

"The loss of military rations is of great concern, what about you? Hunting and drinking in the mountains, have you ever had a day to investigate the case with peace of mind? What I, Lin Tianxiao, can't stand the most is you group of self-righteous jesters, let alone more than ten days, even if it is

You deserve one month, two months." Lin Tianxiao cursed angrily, and then spat on the ground, "You villain, talking to you is a waste of my general's saliva!"

"Still talking harshly, just wait for the military rations case, I will never let you walk away without food!" Feng Xi sneered and walked away.

At this time, in the Guangdu City Government Office, Meng Fang frowned and looked at Che Ming, the Minister of Punishment in front of him, "Master Che, there must be something wrong with this case. He concluded that Master Wang and General Lin were guilty based on his words alone. This is really

It’s inappropriate.”

Che Ming frowned, "Can't you see it as an official? Mr. Wang is talented and resourceful, and General Lin is unparalleled in his loyalty and bravery. They don't look like people who would commit theft and sell military rations.

But now the evidence is in front of them. The belt belongs to General Lin, and the food has also been seen. They recognized Wang Feng at a glance. This... what do you want me to do?"

Meng Fang frowned. This is where the evil lies. Why is the evidence so complete? Everything points to Wang Aosheng and Lin Tianxiao.

The key is that they still can't find a good excuse. Lin Tianxiao said that his waist card was stolen, but the deputy general has not shown up yet. It is basically a situation that cannot be verified.

Moreover, it was Wang Aosheng who asked Wang Feng to kill him. He almost beat Wang Feng to death, but he did not change his story. This left Che Ming really helpless.

"No, I will look for evidence again and I will definitely find it. There must be something wrong here." Mongolia shouted.

"Meng Fang..."

Che Ming stood up and called to Meng Fang, "Meng Fang, you are just a lieutenant general. Your mission in Shuzhou is to find the murderer, not to investigate the case. The investigation is left to our Criminal Department."

"Master Che, it has been so long and the Criminal Department has made no progress at all. We have no time. We will take them to Yindu in two days. Once there, it is impossible for the two adults to come out alive. You know better than me.

." Meng Fang said with red eyes.

Che Ming sighed helplessly, "I also know that Mr. Xue is under pressure from above and requires us to close the case as soon as possible, but, but this... ugh..."

Both of them were a little helpless. It happened that at this moment, Yin Du's letter arrived again, "Your Majesty, this letter is from Yin Du. It is urgent for three hundred miles."

Che Ming hurriedly opened it and saw the words: Apprehend the murderer and return to Beijing quickly.

Meng Fang raised his head and shouted helplessly: "Why are you so anxious? This case is by no means that simple. What if there is something hidden?"

Che Ming looked at Che Ming helplessly, "Take the people to investigate, and we will investigate for twelve hours without rest. I can only wait three days for three days. After three days, we must find the evidence, otherwise, the two adults will

We can only go to Yindu."

"Sir, thank you very much." Meng Fang said, cupping his hands.

Che Ming smiled faintly, "We don't want to wrongly accuse every good person. As an official of the Ministry of Punishment, I hope so even more. The rules and regulations are clear, which is easier said than done."

"Now our only chance is General Lin's deputy general Zhang Lan. If we find this person, we will know about the waist card. Once the waist card is solved, the case will be clear." Meng Fang silently picked up the pen and paper and wrote down Zhang Lan's

name.

Che Ming nodded in agreement, "Let's check it out together."
