Comfortable...Xu Qi'an went upstairs with a refreshed spirit, leaving time for his two colleagues to be quiet.
"I should be under the car, not in the car, seeing how sweet you are... Kukuku, hahaha!" He went upstairs while laughing wildly.
"Xu Ningyan, you are a thousand knives!"
Behind him came the roar of shame and anger from Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao.
In the next few days, Xu Qi'an experienced the sequelae of the friendship boat capsizing. Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao used cold violence against him, ignored him, and treated him as a transparent person.
Xu Qi'an took the initiative to talk to them, but they pretended not to hear and did their own things.
Was it because of his mental breakdown, feeling ashamed to talk to me, or was he angry at me? It must be the former...Xu Qi'an thought so.
So during lunch, Xu Qi'an took the initiative to talk: "I have forgotten what happened in the teahouse, and I will not laugh at you anymore."
"What?" Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao were furious.
Miss Susu played with our feelings, and you played with our friendship. Who is the victim?
"You two lost control and fell into the magic of the charm. Do you blame me?" Xu Qian'an looked at them indignantly:
"Why should I hide it from you? You still have the nerve to ask. If I expose it on the spot, you two will jump off the building. Look, if it weren't for that Li Miaozhen coming over, wouldn't this matter be covered up well?
"None of you are embarrassed. Guangxiao doesn't know that Tingfeng used his little brother to hit the pillar for a quarter of an hour. Tingfeng, you don't know that Guangxiao has such good waist strength when he supports the table. "
"Don't, don't say it..." Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao covered their faces.
In fact, if it was exposed on the spot, Old Song and Old Zhu would at most be embarrassed for a while, and they would never be like now, so ashamed that they wanted to roll on the ground, feeling ashamed.
Whenever they thought of what they said in front of Xu Ningyan, the feelings they had expressed, such as marrying her and regrets in their lives... Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao wanted to commit suicide and leave this dark world.
Song Tingfeng turned his head and sneered: "I don't have a friend like you. From that day on, we are no longer friends."
Zhu Guangxiao said in a deep voice: "Me too."
"Don't make a fuss. The friendship between the three of us is not something that can be shaken by a mere female ghost." Seeing that the two were indifferent, Xu Qian'an said with a cold face:
"At worst, I will invite you to the Jiaofangsi when I return to the capital. "
Song Tingfeng looked disdainful: "The Jiaofangsi can bribe me and Guangxiao?"
Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice: "Twice."
Song Tingfeng snorted: "Get lost, don't talk to me."
Xu Qi'an said with a heartache: "Three times."
Song Tingfeng: "Heh."
Xu Qi'an gritted his teeth and said: "Five times!"
Song Tingfeng grabbed his sleeve tightly: "Then you write a letter."
After three days of friendship, the boat of friendship finally got back on track. Brothers, how can they really fall out over a little conflict? Treating the Jiaofangsi was just to give both parties a way out. The main reason was that the friendship was sincere enough... This was said by Song Tingfeng.
Xu Qi'an agreed very much and said: "Then forget about the Jiaofangsi matter."
Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao said in unison: "Cut off the robe and break the friendship! "
As he spoke, he raised the document in his hand.
"And..." Zhu Guangxiao glanced at him, "You can't leak the matter of Susu...that female ghost, no one can tell anyone."
"You can't make fun of us about this matter in the future." Song Tingfeng added.
"No problem, I absolutely, absolutely won't..." Xu Qian'an hurriedly turned his head away, covered his face, and after a few seconds, turned back: "I will never make fun of you."
"What did you laugh at just now?"
"I didn't laugh."
"You laughed."
"I really didn't laugh, I have been strictly trained, no matter how funny it is, I won't laugh."
.....
Outside Baidi City, military camp.
Li Miaozhen sat in the military tent, listening to Susu's report: "Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao spend most of their time in the post station. Occasionally, when they get tired of the food in the post station, they will go out to find a restaurant.
"They were two people in a group. Xu Qiyan was not involved. He acted alone and went to the brothel every time he went out.
"Almost every day, he would stay in the brothel for an hour and then return to the post station. During this period, he did not go to any government office, nor did he investigate Zhou Min's case.
"Well, Zhou Min's tomb showed signs of being tampered. According to the time, it should be the day when the governor's team arrived at Baidi City..."
In the past few days, Su Su acted as a secret sentry, watching every move of the post station. As long as Xu Qiyan's three people came out, she would quietly follow.
Warriors cannot sense Yin Qi, let alone see ghosts. As long as they keep a good distance, Su Su will not be discovered.
"Anything else abnormal?" Li Miaozhen asked.
Abnormal? Is it unusual for Xu Qi'an to pick up silver every day? Su Su muttered in her heart, but she knew that Li Miaozhen was asking about the incident related to Zhou Min, so she shook her head:
"No, they seem to be waiting for the governor to come back and investigate Zhou Min's case."
The Qi Party had already sent a letter to Wei Yuan about impeaching Yang Chuannan, the commander of Yunzhou. Everyone in the Yunzhou officialdom knew why the governor's team came.
Li Miaozhen uncorked a porcelain bottle and summoned a ghost living in the bottle, a tall and thin middle-aged scholar.
"I say, you write!"
"Yes, master."
Based on the information Li Miaozhen got from the Tiandihui, she believed that she had a very intuitive understanding of Xu Qi'an, who was very good at investigating cases and had rich experience.
If he really had any clues or accurate directions, he would never waste so many days at the post station. After all, the longer the case progresses, the fewer clues there are.
This means that Xu Qi'an is also helpless.
Soon, a letter was written, and Li Miaozhen handed it to Susu: "Send the letter to Yang Chuannan."
"Okay!" Susu held the letter and twisted her slender waist out of the military tent.
She paused in front of the thick curtain, turned her head, frowned, and had a pitiful expression: (?????)
"Just say it if you have something to say." Li Miaozhen said unhappily.
"Master, won't you avenge me? That stinky boy insulted me." Susu complained unwillingly.
"Just lock you up for one day." Li Miaozhen waved her hand and rejected the request of the female ghost subordinate.
Women are all petty, and the more beautiful women are, the more petty they are. Li Miaozhen has never been able to understand this.
She prefers to drink big bowls and eat big mouthfuls of meat, lead troops to suppress bandits, and take revenge. To put it bluntly, it is... a straight man's mentality.
"Humph." Susu left in a huff.
.....
Qingping County, which is around Baidi City, is the largest restaurant in the county.
The restaurant was reserved today. As the last stop of this inspection, the lunch was very rich.
After lunch, Governor Zhang, Yang Chuannan, and Song Changfu, three big men, accompanied by more than ten high-ranking officials of Yunzhou, exchanged their thoughts after the inspection in the restaurant's private room.
Governor Zhang took the opportunity to fly into a rage, denouncing all the officials for being idle and allowing the banditry to multiply and develop, resulting in an increase in the number of refugees in Yunzhou and a depression of people's livelihood.
"The governor's words really make me ashamed." Song, the governor, said ashamedly.
"According to the secret report, the banditry in Yunzhou is because someone secretly supports and transports military supplies." Governor Zhang meant something:
"Some people, who eat the emperor's salary, do things that steal the country."
The officials looked at the silent commander Yang Chuannan obscurely. No one spoke for him. Instead, they all expressed their support for Governor Zhang's strict investigation.
Yang Chuannan did not express his opinion, but sat there motionless, letting a group of people talk in a sarcastic tone.
The whole Yunzhou officialdom isolated and suppressed Yang Chuannan, which was cultivated during the inspection.
At this time, a general knocked on the door and came in. He was Yang Chuannan's confidant. He glanced at the officials coldly, handed a secret letter to Yang Chuannan, and turned and walked out.
Yang Chuannan unfolded the envelope and read it. A smile broke out on his serious and silent face. He put away the envelope and said with a smile:
"I also support the governor. We must investigate strictly and not tolerate it. The governor has many capable people under his command. I believe that the truth will be found out soon."
Governor Zhang frowned and his eyes fell on the superstition in Yang Chuannan's hand. The other officials did the same. They guessed what was written in the letter, which made Yang Chuannan feel confident.
On the way back to Baidi City, Governor Zhang lifted the curtain and coughed hard.
Jiang Lvzhong in front looked back and tacitly slowed down the horse and walked parallel to the carriage.
"I suddenly have a bad feeling..." Governor Zhang looked at Jinluo, who had made almost no contribution to the investigation.
"Is it because Yang Chuannan suddenly became arrogant?" Jiang Lvzhong nodded suddenly.
Governor Zhang said "hmm". This inspection was a preparation and test for him to separate the Yunzhou officialdom and prepare for his arrest of Yang Chuannan.
If the Yunzhou officialdom is of one mind, then he must make a careful plan. If not, he will find a way to isolate Yang Chuannan and get the support of the Yunzhou officialdom.
Governor Zhang was very sure about this, because at the dinner when he first arrived in Yunzhou, Governor Song had already revealed some information in a vague way.
Everything went very smoothly. With the cooperation of Governor Zhang and Governor Song, they sent a signal to the officials that "we are going to deal with Yang Chuannan", forcing them to stand in line.
But after receiving the letter, Yang Chuannan suddenly seemed to be confident, no longer keeping silent, and even laughed and teased him.
I don't know what the other party relies on... Governor Zhang rubbed his eyebrows.
"No matter what, as long as the governor solves the official problems, I will be there for the military, and Xu Qian'an will be there for the investigation." Jiang Luzhong held the reins and comforted him.
Governor Zhang nodded thoughtfully: "We can only put our hopes on Ning Yan. I hope he can solve the puzzle as soon as possible and find the evidence left by Zhou Min."
"What a broken code, Zhou Min is simply playing tricks." Jiang Luzhong cursed.
Governor Zhang felt a little heavy after hearing this.
The large team returned to Baidi City before sunset. In the golden afterglow, Governor Zhang led a large team of people to the post station.
It was not long after the curfew, and the streets had been cleared. It should not be possible to travel, but this is not the capital. The governor is the highest official in Yunzhou, and the curfew cannot restrict him.
The postmen at the post station received the news in advance and learned that the governor would return today, so they were busy preparing dinner.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the post station. Governor Zhang stepped on the wooden bench laid by his entourage to get off the carriage. Several Tongluo guards who stayed at the post station were waiting in the yard, including Xu Qiyan and the other two.
Governor Zhang was worried about Yang Chuannan's reaction. When he saw Xu Qiyan, he was suddenly startled: "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Qiyan's eyes were full of bloodshot, and his dark circles were not black, but dark blue and slightly swollen. It gave people the feeling that he would go with the wind and ascend to heaven at any time.
Jiang Luzhong strode over and looked at Xu Qiyan intently: "How many days?"
Xu Qiyan said depressedly: "Fifteen days."
"..." Old Jiang took a breath: "How is your condition now?"
"It's okay, I will die at any time." Xu Qiyan said naughtily.
Then it hasn't reached the limit yet. Is this kid's soul potential so great? When he is promoted to the Soul Refining Realm, to what extent will his soul advance by leaps and bounds?
For warriors in the Soul Refining Realm, their mental power will become extremely sharp, and they will be able to sense any disturbances in the surroundings, especially those with hostility.
Therefore, warriors in the Soul Refining Realm will hardly be ambushed. At the same time, the three elements of spirit, energy and spirit intersect and complement each other, and their combat power will be improved to a higher level.
After the two finished reminiscing about the past, Governor Zhang couldn't help but ask: "Ning Yan, have you figured out Zhou Min's secret code?"
"I have already got the account book." Xu Qiyan answered calmly.
Governor Zhang was also very calm after hearing this, and nodded and said: "Don't be discouraged, you can always solve the secret code..."
He suddenly stopped and looked at Xu Qiyan silently.
