Zhou Heng glanced at Gao Lang. He didn't think much of it. The local officials knew many things best.
Since Gao Lang didn't say anything, he didn't ask again.
"My lord, can you arrange a place for the few of us to live in, how about we rest here for a day before we are on our way?" Zhou Heng made a request.
"It's natural."
Gao Lang said, Zhou Heng is the imperial envoy, so he naturally wants to arrange a residence for Zhou Heng.
Everyone stayed.
"Why did you tell Gao Lang our purpose?" Su Nuanyu asked Zhou Heng.
"Otherwise, those little fishes and shrimps would jump out of the water by themselves. We came here to make the calm lake in Jingzhou boil, so that the fishes and shrimps hidden below would come out by themselves."
Zhou Heng explained with a smile.
This is called waiting for work with ease, there is no need to look for them one by one, I believe that someone will come and take the initiative to look for them soon, this is Zhou Heng's strategy.
"Are you doing this on purpose?"
"certainly."
Zhou Heng said.
At the place arranged by Gao Lang, everyone in Zhou Heng rested for the night.
When he came to the yamen the next day, Zhou Heng found that the team leaders in the yamen had solemn faces, and their eyes were a little dodge when they saw him, as if something happened and they dared not face him.
"what's up?"
Zhou Heng asked.
Everyone hesitated and did not answer a whole answer.
"Don't worry, even if the sky falls, you don't care about your affairs, just tell me what happened." Zhou Heng asked the person in front of him.
This person looked at other people, and everyone lowered their heads, as if they didn't mean to speak.
"My lord, those people you brought yesterday were all dead when we went to the cell this morning." The people in front of Zhou Heng told Zhou Heng what happened.
Are they all dead?
Zhou Heng was also taken aback for a moment.
What's happening here?
Murder to silence or give yourself a blow?
"Where is the high wave?"
"Your Excellency is taking Wu Zuo to the cell morgue." The yamen servant replied tremblingly. Yesterday they still swore to Zhou Heng that nothing would happen, and something happened just one night later.
They need to pay a lot of responsibility for this matter. Once Zhou Heng blames him, he can't afford it.
"Hurry up and take me to see it!"
Zhou Heng said something.
Arriving at the morgue, Zhou Heng heard Gao Lang and Wu Zuo chatting.
"Has the cause of death been found out?"
Gao Lang asked Wu Zuo, Wu Zuo frowned, and shook his head. He couldn't find out the cause of death for a while, and it didn't look like poisoning.
"Who was on duty last night? Didn't you hear anything?"
Wu Zuo didn't give an answer, Gao Lang asked the person on duty last night, and the two on duty took a step forward, "My lord, we didn't notice any movement."
One person replied.
"Then how did these people die?"
Gao Lang asked, he didn't notice any movement, probably because the two people in front of him didn't work properly last night, they must have slipped away.
"My lord, we really don't know how he died."
Someone said aggrievedly.
Gao Lang sighed, but did not continue to ask.
"My lord, the imperial envoy is here!" Someone reminded Gao Lang, and Gao Lang turned to look at Zhou Heng. When he saw Zhou Heng walking in, Gao Lang immediately went up to meet him.
"Your Excellency will punish you for dereliction of duty!"
Gao Lang stepped forward to plead guilty to Zhou Heng.
"I already know about this matter, sir, don't worry about it!" Zhou Heng seemed to have known that this matter would happen a long time ago, Gao Lang was a little surprised by Zhou Heng's calmness.
"Could it be that the adults know?"
Gao Lang asked Zhou Heng.
"I guessed one or two. I'm here to investigate the affairs of the Yue family. These people ambushed me halfway, and I'm afraid they have something to do with the Yue family." Zhou Heng explained with a smile.
Gao Lang didn't take Zhou Heng's lead and continued, because once this matter was related to the Yue family, it would be troublesome, and it would be better for him to stay alone.
It's safer not to know things.
Zhou Heng chatted with Gao Lang, but Jun Buqi stepped forward to check the deceased.
"How's it going?"
Zhou Heng asked Xiang Jun if he wanted to.
"The other party is at least nine-level cultivation!" Jun Buqi gave Zhou Heng an accurate answer, Wu Zuo couldn't tell it, but Jun Buqi could see it clearly.
A master of the nine realms?
Zhou Heng didn't expect that there would be a master of nine realms ambushing around them.
"What was the cause of death?"
"The other party should have concealed his identity. When he shot, he should have put something on the body of the deceased, and then shot, using his fist to break the heart pulse of these people."
Jun Buqi articulated his own analysis. As long as he is a master of the Nine Realms, anyone can use such a method. Therefore, it is impossible to investigate the identity of the perpetrator from the injuries of the deceased.
"Just determine the cause of death!"
Although Zhou Heng was a little disappointed, at least he knew that there was a powerful master around them, and that was enough.
"My lord, what about these corpses?"
"The corpse is useless, you order someone to bury it!"
Zhou Heng said to Gao Lang.
Coming out of the morgue, Zhou Heng stopped.
"Master Gao, I have something to tell you!"
"My lord, please speak!" Gao Lang stepped forward to listen attentively.
"Subordinates still need to be disciplined. Drinking alcohol while on duty is not a good thing. I will not blame this time, but I hope you will also learn from it!"
Zhou Heng said something to Gao Lang.
Although the two people on duty last night tried their best to cover up, Zhou Heng could still tell at a glance whether these people had been drinking.
"Understood!"
Gao Lang nodded, feeling shocked. He didn't understand how Zhou Heng found out that the two were drinking, even he didn't find out that the two were drinking.
Moreover, Zhou Heng didn't talk to the two of them in the morgue. There was a certain distance between them, how did Zhou Heng know.
Zhou Heng left the Yamen.
"You two told me, did you two drink alcohol last night?" Gao Lang wanted to confirm whether what Zhou Heng said was true.
The two came to Gao Lang.
When asked by Gao Lang, the two knew that they couldn't hide this matter.
"My lord, we just drank a little, and when we woke up, something happened!" One person said everything.
After hearing what this person said, Gao Lang was so angry that he kicked him out.
"You two bastards, it's fortunate that people don't care about us. If we did, you two would be dead now." Gao Lang said angrily.
"My lord is not as mysterious as you said!"
One person said, how did the imperial envoy know they were drinking.
"People knew that you were drinking, so they told me just now, you two should be smarter to me in the future, such things can't go far every time."
Gao Lang said.
"My lord, is it true? How did he know, is this imperial envoy so powerful at such a young age?"
Someone asked Gao Lang in surprise. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
