Song Lian briefly took over the Tianqing County Government Office. He originally wanted to guard the Yamen, but he soon remembered that the Guardian Yamen in the Liang Dynasty only reached the prefecture and county level, and there were no more below.
.
Therefore, the county government can only be temporarily requisitioned.
Mi Ke had already gone to work in Wanshan County. Although he was causing trouble in Qingshan County, it did not affect Daliang Lu. In addition, these people had no intention of taking care of him now, so he quickly rushed from Qingshan County to Wanshan County.
, Nowadays, the county magistrate of Tianqing County has the surname Xu, and only about thirty.
"Xuzhi County."
Song Lian used his right hand and kept tapping his fingers on the case. The sound was slight, but each tap hit Xu Zhixian's heart.
He had already heard about what happened in the alley over there before, and coupled with the influx of officials from the county government, no matter how stupid he was, he knew what it meant.
"Commander Song, please tell me."
Xu Zhixian looked at Song Lian very humbly. Although the other party was a military attache, his official position was much higher than him. The commander of the left guard of Shendu was a fourth-rank official, and the official position did not mean anything. You must know that the Guardian God
There are only two yamen in the capital, and this one is the commander of one of them. Does that mean that he has great weight in His Majesty's heart?
Song Lian glanced at Xuzhi County and said with a smile, "Xuzhi County, don't worry too much. After I leave, they will not come to Tianqing County. The hatred will naturally be on me and the guard of Chen Town."
, you are so innocent."
Xu Zhixian said yes, but he was still worried in his heart. Everyone knew that these foreign monks had no laws. If they really wanted to take revenge, how could a small county like him bear it? .??.
Song Lian knew what he was thinking. He shook his head and did not explain anything. He just said, "The new acting guard has arrived. Let's go to Xuzhi County to get familiar with him. After all, we will work together for a long time in the future. By the way, we still have to work with him."
Please ask Xu Zhixian to bring me the files of Commissioner Chen Zhen, I want to see them."
Although Chen Chao has now been involved in that trouble, as long as Dali Temple does not finalize the case, he will still be the guardian envoy. But now that he is going to Shendu, Tianqing County will always need a guardian envoy.
Xu Zhixian retreated and soon sent people to deliver the files.
Song Lian left in such a hurry this time that he didn't bother with Chen Chao's files. After all, in addition to the official documents from the guardian envoy, he also received a message from Xie. As long as he could bring the young man back to the capital of the gods, he would
Thank you very much.
Without this sentence, there is actually no need to be in a hurry for him to go south. If he fails to catch up in the end, it is not a big deal. After all, the official document from the guardian told him to take this young man to the capital of gods. The monk from outside was the first to take the lead.
What can we do?
Everything in the world is what it says.
Looked through it
File, Song Lian actually had some approval in his eyes.
In the past few years, Tianqing County has not had a single murder case.
In other words, this young man's guardianship has done quite well.
"Sir, Commander Chen is awake."
Just as Song Lian was flipping through the files, someone suddenly reported outside the door.
Song Lian raised his head, hummed, and then put down the case file in his hand.
…
…
In the county jail.
With the sound of chains falling to the ground, the cell door was opened. Immediately, a yamen officer brought a chair and placed it on the ground. Then, Song Lian, dressed in black robe, slowly stepped into the cell and did not sit down immediately.
Instead, he walked slowly in the cell. After a while, he walked to the chair, sat down, and glanced at the young man.
Chen Chao had indeed woken up early, but he was seriously injured and could not get up at the moment. He could only tilt his head and look at this man wearing a black robe and official boots. Before he announced his home, he had already
He fainted, so Chen Chao didn't know Song Lian's identity at this moment, but he also understood one thing. This person definitely had a good background, at least he came from the capital of God.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to face that Taoist nun without any fear.
When Chen Chao was sizing up Song Lian, Song Lian was also sizing up Chen Chao.
He was indeed a little curious about this young man who was able to stir up troubles in the capital city of Tianqing County.
No matter how you look at the young man who can make Xie take action, he is not an ordinary person.
"Don't you think it's strange why you are in prison?" Song Lian had originally made up his mind to let the young man speak first, but he never expected that Chen Chao remained silent, as if he didn't feel much about the current situation.
.
Chen Chao lay on the ground and said with difficulty, "Is there any safer place than here now? If possible, I would like to live in the prison of Dali Temple right away."
Song Lian smiled and said, "Do you think the prison in Dali Temple is safe? I don't know how many people die there every month. Somehow, for a small guardian like you, if you live in it, do you think you will leave?"
That day?"
Chen Chao grinned with difficulty and said, "I don't know, but if you come from the capital of God, then I won't die for no reason even in Dali Temple."
Song Lian smiled, shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter whether you or Mrs.
What's the matter? There is conclusive evidence that you killed those monks. If they don't let you go, even if you go to the capital of the gods, you will only be able to survive for a few more days. The final result will not be the same.
what is the difference."
Chen Chao remained silent, as he seemed to have already known about this result.
"Am I really safe and sound on this journey?" Chen Chao stretched out his hand with great effort, but could no longer touch the broken knife at his waist, and felt a little empty in his heart.
There is no sense of security.
"After you go to prison, you will naturally have to keep your knife. When you can really come out of prison, I will return it to you. But your knife is not bad. If you can't come out, give it to me."
Song Lian seemed to know what the young man in front of him was thinking, and said calmly, "If they insist on killing you, even if they don't hesitate to break up with the court and directly send a monk Wangyou, then I will definitely send you out immediately."
"No, the knife is there but the person is gone. Let the knife be buried with me!"
The young man was breathing heavily, looking very determined and not planning to make any concessions.
Song Lian sighed and said, "You are really a miser."
Chen Chao did not answer this sentence, but just grinned, it hurt.
"I have a question I want to ask you." Song Lian got to the point and said with a smile, "If you give me a satisfactory answer, I will have to think more on the way, otherwise I will go to apologize to Mrs. Xie before I even regain my consciousness.
.”
Chen Chao asked first, "I don't know your identity yet."
Song Lian glanced at him and said calmly, "I am the commander of the left guard of Shendu, Song Lian."
"Excuse me." Chen Chao raised his head. Except for his head, there really weren't many places on his body that he could move.
"Since you already know that the Sanxi Mansion and other sects will not let you go, why don't you leave early and wait here for them to kill you. If I am later, even if you have some plans, what will be the use?"
This is the question that Song Lian is most interested in. After he went to review the whole story, he had not thought about this clearly. Since Chen Chao killed those foreign monks, he must have known that they would retaliate. Why?
He won't leave?
Chen Chao was silent for a while and then said seriously, "If the official leaves here, will the entire people of Tianqing County suffer an unreasonable disaster and be implicated by me?"
Song Lian frowned. After listening to these words, he remembered the files he had seen before and was touched in his heart. It turned out that the young man in front of him actually had such thoughts.
He couldn't help but have some respect for Chen Chaosheng.
Although the other party is of low level
Wei Wei, his official position is not high, but his heart alone is enough to make Song Lian interested.
"But..." Chen Chao changed the topic and said calmly, "According to Daliang law, it is a serious crime for a guard to leave the territory without permission, and he can be killed without asking."
Song Lian was startled, and the respect he had just felt disappeared in an instant.
Are you thinking too much?
Chen Chao said matter-of-factly, "I want to live, so naturally I can't cause any trouble. If I leave Tianqing County without permission, it doesn't matter why I want to kill those monks. It's just this. If the court wants to kill me, they can kill me."
.”
Song Lian smiled and said, "It's quite thoughtful."
Chen Chao smiled and acquiesced to this statement.
Song Lian said, "You have thought about a lot of things and done a lot of things, but the fundamental thing is that the things you did were a bit too much. Why did you kill them!"
Song Lian paused, exhaled a breath, and said softly, "Although I also want to kill them, if you do this, you will push yourself to the edge of the cliff."
Chen Chao looked helpless, "Sir, it's not that I have to kill them, it's that they refused to give me a chance to live. They insist on killing me. I'm just protecting myself."
"My lord, I came from the capital of the gods. It seems that there are many things that I still don't know. Why don't I ask the Qingshan County envoy?"
Chen Chao raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "Accompanying those people to the quarry is what Commander Li Zhen wanted."
Song Lian's face was expressionless, "It's useless no matter how much you tell me, because your case is now being tried in Dali Temple. I am affiliated with the Guardian Envoy Yamen and will not participate in the trial. And because of your status as the Guardian Envoy, I am not involved in the trial."
Officials have to avoid suspicion."
Chen Chao cried sadly and shouted, "Sir, our relationship is so close, can you bear to watch me die?"
He looked sincere, as if he had suffered some great injustice.
Song Lian said, "Boy, you seem to have forgotten something."
Chen Chao asked seriously, "Is it true that I am a genius?"
"..."
Song Lian frowned and said in disgust, "You are so shameless."
"Thank you for the compliment, sir."
Chen Chao chuckled and didn't take it seriously.
Song Lian sighed and rubbed his forehead.
Song Lian said, "You might as well show me what trump cards you have now, such as your relationship with Mr. Xie... I want to know who you really rely on."
Chen Chao thought for a long time before he hesitated and said, "There is a girl in God who likes me, does that count?"
