Misfortune and blessing

The back mountain of Luojiazhuang is full of potholes, and the recruited civilians are digging desperately. From the worry and fear of the first corpse, to the end, only fatigue remains.

Looking at the corpses lined up by the roadside, some had only skeletons left, some still had half flesh, and some could still be seen as human figures... Both men and women, Catcher Li couldn't help being surprised.

It is no longer a matter of a day or two to follow Mr. Wei to handle cases. In the past few years, because of Wei Xi's fearless personality, all kinds of murder cases have become commonplace, but this time the scope involved is beyond anyone's imagination.

In addition to the considerable corpses, there are also hidden powers behind.

It's just because no one in the capital knows the relationship between Luojiazhuang and Grand Master Zhen. Grandmaster Zhen is the grandfather of the second prince. He heard that the second prince often goes in and out of Luojiazhuang. It is hard to guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with the second prince.Even though Wei Xi has offended all the dignitaries in the capital once, he can't lay his mind on the emperor, that is the crime of deceiving the emperor.

Just thinking about this matter, Li Butou's heart turned cold.But no matter how he insinuated, the shrewd and capable Mr. Wei seemed to be completely incomprehensible and ignored him.So resolute, how can Li Butou not sweat secretly?

Also distressed was Luo Yun, the owner of Luojiazhuang.In the past, relying on Grand Master Zhen's power, although he knew that what he did was wrong, not only did he never repent, he even threw away the corpse casually.Every time something happens, the subordinates are always asked to pack a bag and bury it in the back mountain.

How do you know that this news will leak one day?And how do you know that among the officials in the capital there is Wei Xi who doesn't care about his future?

Before anyone could bring the news to Grand Master Zhen, Wei Xi had already put all the people in jail awaiting trial. The 27 corpses were carried back to the capital miserably, which immediately caused a sensation in Daliang.

It was already dark when Grand Master Zhen found out about this matter. Over the years, he had been vaguely aware of the good deeds his incompetent grandson did in Luojiazhuang, but he always thought that he would just raise a few people for fun. There is no multi-party interference.Who knew that this villain would get bigger and bigger as he played more and more, and he would gnash his teeth in anger for such a big event.

Forcibly suppressing the urge to slap someone, Grand Master Zhen thought to himself, Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment belongs to him, but Wei Xi is Wade's son. But after all, it is always blood, so how do you know that the two are not from the same spirit?

But after thinking about it, even though Luo Yun didn't like this dog, he had been raising it for many years, and if he didn't do anything, there was no guarantee that Luo Yun wouldn't shake everything out.After thinking about it, Grand Master Zhen sent his own troops, some to put pressure on Li Shangshu, some to put pressure on Wei Xi, and even sent a few people from the world to threaten him, but Wei Xi is damn lucky , except for a little injury, nothing happened, of course it should be ignored.

A few days later, Wei Xi closed the case, but Li Shangshu did not have the courage to report it to the court, so he had to lead Wei Xi into the imperial city.

It is not the first time that the emperor's imperial study has come back. Wei Xi has no expression on his face, but Li Shangshu who is walking in front of him is covered in cold sweat.

Xiao Boyuan, Emperor of Liang Dynasty, was originally a soft-hearted and caring emperor. Although Wei Xi handled the case beautifully, he knew in his heart that this kid didn't want to stop at this step.

But going further up, the second prince of Daliang was the one who had to be dealt with.Thinking that Xiao Yuchen was not loved by his mother Concubine Zhen since he was born, and he was obsessed and loved by no one since he was a child. Now that he commits such a wrong thing, can't he, as his father, give him a way out?Thinking about it, Xiao Boyuan rarely spoke decisively. "Wei Qing solves cases like a god. You've worked hard these days, so I'll leave the rest to Li Qing."

Hearing this, Li Shangshu repeatedly said yes.

But Wei Xi just glanced at the emperor indifferently.

Xiao Boyuan saw contempt from his gaze, he said in a panic. "Wei Qing?"

Wei Xi just nodded. "The minister obeys the order."

A month later, the Luojiazhuang case came to an end.

The captives returned home safely, and the Luoyun gang waited for the autumn decision.Although Taishi Zhen didn't know about it, he indulged his subordinates and fined him half a year's salary.The second prince was punished jointly and was not allowed to go out after thinking about his mistakes in the mansion.

This seemingly fair judgment finally quelled the whispers in the capital, but it couldn't quell the minds of discerning people.

***

Jiaozhou state capital.

It was near the end of spring, and Jiaozhou had not yet reached the hot and irritating moment, but Guo Jie, the governor of Jiaozhou, was covered in fat, and he was always several times more uncomfortable than others in previous years.In addition, Mr. Guo didn't know what he ate this year, and he had diarrhea all the time. He could only squat in the latrine from morning to night. It was smelly and hot, and his knees could hardly be bent.

Seeing that he was pulling endlessly, but his face was pale, and his stomach didn't even calm down, Mrs. Guo shook her fan and said resentfully. "People say that sometimes you must have something in your life, and there is no time in your life. Don't force it. Master, let's stop holding on and just go back to Beijing."

Mrs. Guo was talking about it for fun, but she didn't expect it to enter Guo Jie's heart. She was blocked immediately and went into the room to write a memorial to resign.But after writing a few words, his stomach was rumbling again, Master Guo gritted his teeth, holding a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in one hand, and his trousers in the other, he quickly ran to the hut.

On the roof, a man wearing a blue-gray fox mask was squatting, his long hair tied behind his head fluttering slightly in the night wind.

Finally, as entrusted by the suzerain, Guo Jie was driven out of Jiaozhou. Who will be next?Hope to be a good friend and willing to do things for the people.

***

a few days later.

The eldest prince Xiao Yujin, who was rushing from Jiaozhou to the capital, took the newly arrived Feige letter, knowing that the right envoy had settled everything, he showed a puzzled expression.

As the suzerain of the Phoenix League, all the big and small things in the league can't escape his eyes. The left envoy Zhong Ning is determined to find out the truth in Luojiazhuang, and he will lead the case to Wei Xi, of course it is also part of his calculation. middle.After all, in the entire capital, who would dare to touch Grand Master Zhen?I'm afraid there is no one else except his underground fool.

But what next?

Do you really want to try to get Wei Xi to go to Jiaozhou to help Xiangyi?When he arrived in Jiaozhou, what would happen when he met Xuan Ang?

When Master knows that all these are good things he did, how can he make things difficult for himself?

His good master is more wicked than those hungry wolves in the imperial court, and there is definitely a way to bring him back to life.

Xiao Yujin pursed her lips and sighed deeply several times. The warm jade in her hand was burning hot. Although she was worried about her next situation, she had done everything and the matter had come to this point, so let's face it calmly.

Looking at the bright moon, Xiao Yujin lowered her eyes, she was the only one left in that capital.

***

Guo Jie's memorial to his old age arrived in the capital at the beginning of summer.

Xiao Boyuan agreed to his request almost without hesitation, and then sent Wei Xi, the head of the Ministry of Punishment, to Jiaozhou as the governor.

As early as the very beginning, Wei Xi knew that he would be downgraded because of the case of Luojiazhuang. Anyway, he has nothing to worry about in the capital, so what about serving as the governor of Jiaozhou?

Besides, that guy is in Jiaozhou now.

Thinking of that fox face, Wei Xi laughed unconsciously.He's sure that guy still can't figure out who he is?

Seeing his stern smile, whoever sees his heart sinks, and can swipe as far as he can.But his coachman Alio could not.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooo what is Master Hei Ling thinking?Facing the chill gradually rising from behind, A Liao reluctantly sent Mr. Wei back to his residence.

***

Wei Xi has always been a vigorous and resolute personality. Since he received the order, he handed over the work with the Ministry of Criminal Affairs without saying a word, packed his luggage, and rushed to Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou in midsummer is in the rainy season, and the weather is rare and clear. Even if the rain stops, the roads and roads are full of potholes, and even the official roads are full of mud.

A Liao drove the car, dodged one pit, but couldn't dodge another pit, passed a hole, but couldn't avoid another one.Not only the driver outside the car was worried about the journey, but Wei Xi inside the car was also dizzy.

Great, this Jiaozhou is really good.

Thinking so, Wei Xi was jolted again, and it was a big one. He rolled in a big circle in the car. When he lifted the curtain, he found that the left wheel of the carriage was actually stuck in a big hole.

Wei Xi got out of the car expressionlessly.

"My lord." A Liao had a bitter face, almost crying.If the assassin came here today, Master Liao would still be able to use his fists and legs, but the road conditions in Jiaozhou are a million times more annoying than the assassin's, which makes people angry, annoyed and helpless.

Wei Xi said lightly. "Get in the carriage and listen to my password." As he spoke, he walked towards the rear of the carriage, put his hands on the carriage, and shouted. "Walk."

With the concerted efforts of Wei Xi and Ma'er, the carriage moved, and Wei Xi was splashed with mud all over. He raised his sleeve and wiped his face indifferently. Wei Xi climbed into the carriage and changed clothes in the carriage at the same time , thinking in his heart, repairing this terrible official road is bound to become his top priority during his tenure.

When we arrived at the capital of Jiaozhou, the rain had stopped, and I felt A Liao stop the car, and someone outside the car said loudly. "May I ask if it is Governor Wei, Lord Wei?"

Hearing this clear voice for the first time, Wei Xi was taken aback for a moment, the waves in his chest gradually rose, and thousands of waves were rolled up in an instant, and when he was about to rush out the door, he heard the human voice.

"The last general is General Pingnan's deputy, Gao Xuan'ang, who was ordered by General Fang to meet him here."

Hearing this, Wei Xi couldn't help clenching her hands tightly until her palms ached.How did he forget again?Forget that person is no longer there, forget that this person is not the one he wanted?Still thinking, A Liao has already spoken.

"So it's General Gao, please wait a moment, I will let you know."

Before A Liao lifted the curtain, Wei Xi had already got up and opened the car door, standing at the car door, he said coldly. "I'm Wei Xi." The seemingly weak voice caught the chill that could freeze anyone.

Wei Xi was originally a cold person, the long-term lack of sleep and the bumps along the way made his dark eye sockets deepen several times, and now with the old hatred for Mr. Fox, the result of all the hatred made his face look like the ground. Yan Jun, even if you're not a brat, you still have to stay away.

Smart people definitely know to dodge when they see him like this, but Gao Xuanang is different, he who was ordered to pick him up spoke with a soft voice. "I have seen Master Wei."

Wei Xi slightly turned her head, and met the visitor at this moment.Even though there were so many officials present, he only saw that one.

Gao Xuan, who was dressed in a military uniform, was holding the helmet in his hands, his long hair was only tied behind his head with a rope, his round and big eyes sparkled, and the corner of his mouth had a smile that could melt anyone, including thousands of years of ice.

Wei Xihan's arrogant gaze completely collapsed when he saw Gao Xuanang, especially when he said "I have seen Mr. Wei" which lifted him from the hell to heaven.

This voice and this appearance are clearly his Xiaotian, the person he cares about the most in his life.

This is how the same thing?

Why... why did he only find out now?

Wei Xi was stunned, unable to speak for a long time, this powerful impact made him no longer able to maintain the illusion that nothing had happened, and after dissipating the aura full of majesty and arrogance, there was only an extremely fragile shell left.

There is nothing more painful than silence, especially now that it is the rainy season in Jiaozhou, if you don't enter the house, it may rain.Of course, Gao Xuanang saw Wei Xi's abnormal state and the inexplicable emotion in his eyes. In order to save everyone, he had no choice but to speak. "Master Wei, the road conditions in Jiaozhou have always been bad, maybe you are tired, can you allow Mo to guide you?"

He stretched out his hand to Wei Xi, because he guessed that most of the literati were weak and couldn't bear the climate of Jiaozhou, and they dared not get out of the car when they saw the muddy ground. Arrogant and arrogant, the result of trying to be brave all the way is even more worrying.Therefore, at first he wanted to help him get out of the car without any trace, but when Wei Xi saw him stretching out his hand, he looked at him for a long time with deep meaning, and then reached out to hold his hand after a while.

With this grip, both of them were stunned.

Gao Xuanang didn't know what the feeling flashed in his heart, he subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but Wei Xi's hand was so strong that he couldn't take it back no matter what he wanted.

After stepping off the carriage, he walked all the way into the state capital, his hands tightly holding his own.

As a warrior, Gao Xuanang didn't want to care about it at first, but it was a painful grip, as if he wanted to press people into his own flesh and blood.Moreover, they have already entered the state government office, will it be too long?

"Master Wei." He called out. "Here we are," he reminded him.

Wei Xi, who hadn't recovered from the ecstasy, turned to him, her eyes were not only red, but tears were shining. "What?" Wei Xi said, her voice changed, there was no frosty chill, only unspeakable sadness.

Just seeing him like this, Gao Xuanang's heart was twisted, and he spoke with a soft voice. "The general's hand hurts a bit."

Wei Xi's eyes flickered again and again, and then let go in a moment of surprise. "I……"

The temperature in his hands disappeared, Gao Xuanang couldn't tell what the loss in his heart was, he smiled cheerfully. "The climate in Jiaozhou is too bad. The newcomers are all the same, and they are very worried about falling."

This is what Xiaotian would say in his own words, and he really is Xiaotian.Wei Xi thought this way the moment he held his hand—only Xiaotian could give him such a feeling, this kind of temperature.

However, he didn't understand why he didn't recognize himself?Why is he so lukewarm to himself?Does he have something to hide?Still, Wei Xi looked at the people around and thought of Luo Tianxing's situation astutely.

As an important criminal, he must have lived a difficult life in the past few years. He had to change his name and surname, and had to pretend that he had never known him.

That's right, Fang Xiangyi is the eldest prince's old man. Although Xiao Yujin has lost power now, with Wei Xiang and Grand Master Zhen's scheming like wolves, there must be someone who can be punished among so many people in Jiaozhou. If you don't pay attention, you will harm him and yourself just like in the past.

After thinking about it for a while, Wei Xi gritted her teeth until her teeth ached, and then she calmed down. "With the help of General Lao Gao."

Seeing him grit his teeth and frown again, it is not easy for him to say this thank you, right?Hey, literati.Gao Xuanang shook his head in his heart. "Don't dare, tonight the General's Mansion will host a banquet to wash away the dust, please be sure to come and visit me, Your Excellency."

Hearing this, Wei Xi, who understood his meaning, was shocked again. "you are leaving?"

Hearing the words of the new governor, all the officials present bowed their heads, and no one dared to say a word.

Gao Xuanang blinked. "Return to my lord, the last general still has official duties, so he has to return to the general's mansion." After speaking, he raised his hands in a bow, and planned to leave.

But Wei Xi grabbed his clothes even faster, Gao Xuanang murmured in his heart with such quick movements, how did this useless literati catch him?Before he could think about it, Mr. Wei's question had already been thrown.

"No...I mean, when shall we meet again?"

Gao Xuanang replied. "General Fang is hosting a banquet tonight, please be sure to come."

Wei Xi doesn't care who hosts the banquet, he only cares about one thing. "You also live in the general's mansion? Will you also participate in the dust-cleaning banquet?"

if not?Gao Xuanang replied. "yes."

Wei Xi lowered his eyes, then looked at Gao Xuanang again for a while, his black eyes were deep. "Well, I'll be there on time."

Gao Xuanang has been the focus of everyone since he was a child, and he has long been used to the gazes of others, but he has to admit that Wei Xi's gaze actually makes him flustered.Leaving pretending to be chic, even if he walked out of the state capital, Gao Xuanang could still feel the gaze cast behind him.

Watching Gao Xuanang leave, Wei Xi clenched his fists tightly until his palms were red and swollen. He knew that he would have to use all his strength to resist the urge to go with him.But, he can't be willful anymore.This time he must bear it.

Xiaotian never lied to him, since he said they would meet, they will definitely meet.Thinking about it, Wei Xi subconsciously showed a faint smile on the corner of his resolute mouth.

Seeing the new master Ruo this, the officials around him secretly tied a few knots in their hearts.Among them, a more courageous master opened his mouth. "My lord, you must be tired when you first arrive in Jiaozhou. Do you need to take a rest?"

Not as full of bewilderment and helplessness as before, Wei Xi turned around, his face was covered with icy frost, and even his voice was so weak that it was unreasonable. "No, bring up all the case files within the past five years, and I need to read them now."
