Nightwatcher

Chapter 213 Return

Feeling comfortable, Xu Qi'an went upstairs refreshed, leaving time for the two colleagues to think about it quietly.

"I should be under the car, not in the car, seeing how sweet you guys are, Kukuku, hahaha!" He laughed wildly as he went upstairs.

"Xu Ning feasts on you for a thousand knives!"

Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao roared in embarrassment and anger from behind.

In the next few days, Xu Qi'an experienced the sequelae of the friendship boat capsized. Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao treated him coldly and violently, turning a blind eye to him, treating him as a transparent person.

Xu Qi'an took the initiative to talk to them, but they also acted as if they didn't hear them, and went about their own business.

Is it because your mentality has collapsed and you feel ashamed to talk to me, or is it because you are angry at me? It must be the former, Xu Qi'an thought so.

So during lunch, Xu Qi'an took the initiative to chat: "I have already forgotten what happened in the teahouse, so I won't laugh at you anymore."

"What?" Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao went crazy.

Miss Susu is playing with our feelings, you are playing with our friendship, who is the victim?

"It's because you two couldn't control it, you fell into that charming illusion, blame me?" Xu Qi'an looked at them angrily:

"Why should I hide it from you? You are ashamed to ask, if I expose it on the spot, you two will not be able to jump off the building. Look, if it wasn't because of that Li Miaozhen coming over, wouldn't the matter be well covered up?

"None of you are embarrassed. Guang Xiao didn't know that Ting Feng hit the pillar with his little brother for a quarter of an hour. Ting Feng, you didn't know that Guang Xiao had such a strong waist when he was supporting the table."

"Don't, stop talking." Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao covered their faces.

In fact, if they were exposed on the spot, Lao Song and Lao Zhu would be embarrassed for a while at most, and they would never be as shameless as they are now, feeling ashamed to be human.

Every time I think of what I said in front of Xu Ningyan, what I have expressed, why she should not marry, and what I regret for Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao in my life, I can't wait to commit seppuku and leave this dark world.

Song Tingfeng turned his head away, and said with a sneer, "I don't have a friend like you, and from that day on, we will cut off our friendship."

Zhu Guangxiao said in a deep voice, "Me too."

"Don't make trouble, the friendship between the three of us can be shaken by a mere female ghost." Seeing that the two of them were indifferent, Xu Qi'an said with a cold face and a painful expression on his face:

"It's a big deal to go back to the capital and invite you to the Jiaofang Division."

Song Tingfeng looked disdainful: "A mere Jiaofang Secretary bought me and Guangxiao?"

Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice: "Twice."

Song Tingfeng snorted, "Get out, don't talk to me."

Xu Qi'an said in pain, "Three times."

Song Tingfeng: "Oh."

Xu Qi'an gritted his teeth and said, "Five times!"

Song Tingfeng grabbed his sleeve tightly: "Then you make a written statement."

After capsized for three days, the boat of friendship finally got on the right track, brother, how can we really fall out over a little conflict. Inviting guests to Jiaofang is just to give both parties a step down. The main reason is that the friendship is sincere enough. Song Tingfeng said this.

Xu Qi'an agreed very much, and said: "Let's forget about the Secretary of Jiaofang."

Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao said in unison: "Cut off the robe to judge justice!"

As he spoke, he raised the paper in Yang's hand.

"Besides." Zhu Guangxiao glanced at him, "You can't leak about Susu's female ghost, no one can say anything about it."

"You can't make fun of us about this in the future." Song Tingfeng added.

"No problem, I will definitely, absolutely not Kuku." Xu Qi'an hurriedly turned his head and covered his face. After a few seconds, he turned around and said, "I will definitely not make fun of you."

"What were you laughing at?"

"I'm not smiling."

"You smiled."

"I really didn't laugh, I was trained strictly, no matter how funny it is, I can't laugh."

Outside Baidi City, the military camp.

Sitting in the military tent, Li Miaozhen listened to Susu's report: "Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao spent most of their time in the station, and occasionally they would go out to find restaurants when they got tired of the food in the station.

"They are a couple, Xu Qi'an did not participate in it, he acts alone, every time he goes out, he goes to Goulan.

"Almost every day, I would stay in Goulan for an hour, and then go back to the station. During this period, I did not go to any yamen, nor did I investigate Zhou Min's case.

"Well, Zhou Min's grave has traces of being moved. According to the time, it should be the day the governor's team arrived at Baidi City."

In the past few days, Susu acted as a secret sentry, watching every move of the station. As soon as Xu Qi'an's trio came out, she would follow them quietly.

Martial arts cannot sense Yin Qi, let alone ghosts. As long as they keep a good distance, Susu will not be found.

"Anything else unusual?" Li Miaozhen asked.

abnormal? Is that Xu Qi'an picking up money every day considered abnormal? Susu murmured in her heart, but she knew that Li Miaozhen was asking about Zhou Min's related incidents, so she shook her head:

"No, they seem to be waiting for the governor to come back before investigating Zhou Min's case."

Wei Yuan's impeachment of Yang Chuannan, the commander of the capital of Yunzhou, had already been reported by the Qi Party. Everyone in Yunzhou official circles knows why the governor's team came here.

Li Miaozhen uncorked a porcelain bottle and summoned a ghost living in the bottle. It was a tall and thin middle-aged scholar.

"I said, you write!"

"Yes, master."

Based on the information Li Miaozhen obtained through the Tiandihui, she thinks she has a fairly intuitive understanding of Xu Qi'an, and she is very good at investigating cases and has rich experience.

If he really had any clues, or the exact direction, he would never have spent so many days at the station. After all, the longer the case dragged on, the fewer clues there would be.

This meant that Xu Qi'an was also helpless.

Not long after, a letter was written, and Li Miaozhen handed the letter to Susu: "Send the letter to Yang Chuannan."

"Okay!" Susu held the letter and walked out of the military tent with her waist twisted.

She stopped in front of the thick curtain, turned her head, frowning, with a pitiful expression: ()

"Speak up if you have something to say." Li Miaozhen said angrily.

"Isn't master going to avenge me? That brat insulted me." Susu complained unwillingly.

"It's just shutting you down for a day." Li Miaozhen waved his hand, rejecting the female ghost's subordinate's request.

Women are narrow-minded, and the more beautiful a woman is, the more narrow-minded she is. Li Miaozhen has never been able to understand this point.

She prefers a big bowl of wine, big mouthfuls of meat, and the military life of leading troops to suppress bandits. To put it bluntly, it is the mentality of a straight man.

"Hmph." Susu left angrily.

In Qingping County around Baidi City, it is the largest restaurant in the county.

The restaurant is booked out today, and as the last stop of this tour, a very rich lunch is prepared.

After lunch, Governor Zhang, Yang Chuannan, and Song Changfu, headed by the three big bosses, accompanied by more than ten senior Yunzhou officials, exchanged their thoughts after the inspection in the box of the restaurant.

Governor Zhang took the opportunity to be furious, denouncing all the officials as a generation of vegetarians who let the banditry multiply and develop, resulting in the increase of refugees in Yunzhou and the depression of people's livelihood.

"The governor's words really make me ashamed." Song Buzheng said in shame.

"According to the secret report, the banditry in Yunzhou is because someone secretly supported and transported military supplies." Governor Zhang pointed out:

"Some people eat the king's salary, but they do things like stealing the country."

All the officials secretly looked at the silent commander Yang Chuannan. No one spoke for him, but they all expressed their support for Governor Zhang's strict investigation.

Yang Chuannan didn't express his opinion, just sat motionless like a mountain, and let a group of people speak in a strange way.

The atmosphere of isolation and suppression of Yang Chuannan in the entire Yunzhou officialdom 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 coldly at the officials, handed a secret letter to Yang Chuannan, turned and retreated.

Yang Chuannan opened the envelope and read it. A smile bloomed on his serious and silent face. He put the envelope away and said with a smile:

"I also support the governor. We must strictly investigate and not tolerate it. There are many talented people under the governor's command. I think the truth will be found out soon."

Governor Zhang frowned, his eyes fell on the superstition in Yang Chuannan's hands, and the rest of the officials did the same. They all guessed what was written in the letter, which made Yang Chuannan suddenly full of confidence.

On the way back to Baidi City, Governor Zhang raised the curtain and coughed hard.

Looking back, Jiang Luzhong, who was in the front, slowed down the speed of the horse tacitly, and walked parallel to the carriage.

"I suddenly have a bad feeling." Governor Zhang looked at Jin Luo who had made little contribution to the investigation.

"Is it because Yang Chuannan suddenly became arrogant?" Jiang Lvzhong nodded suddenly.

Governor Zhang said "hmm". This inspection was a foreshadowing and test made by him. The purpose was to separate the officialdom in Yunzhou and prepare for his arrest of Yang Chuannan.

If Yunzhou's officialdom is of one mind, then he must make a careful plan. If it wasn't for one mind, he would find a way to isolate Yang Chuannan and get the support of Yunzhou official circles.

In this regard, Governor Zhang is very sure, because at the dinner party when he first arrived in Yunzhou, the Song Chief Envoy had already revealed some kind of information indistinctly.

Everything went very smoothly. With the cooperation of Governor Zhang and Song Buzheng, a signal "We are going to engage in Yang Chuannan" was sent to the officials, forcing them to stand in line.

But after receiving that letter, Yang Chuannan seemed to have confidence all of a sudden, he no longer kept silent, and even teased him with a smile.

I don't know what the other party has to rely on. Governor Zhang rubbed his eyebrows.

"No matter what, as long as the governor solves the official problems, I will have me in terms of force, and Xu Qi'an in the investigation." Jiang Lvzhong held the reins of the horse and said in relief.

Governor Zhang nodded ponderingly: "I can only pin my hopes on Ning Yan, I hope he can solve the puzzle as soon as possible and find the evidence left by Zhou Min."

"What kind of broken code, Zhou Min is just playing tricks." Jiang Lvzhong scolded.

After hearing this, Governor Zhang felt a little heavy.

The large team rushed back to Baidi City before sunset. In the afterglow of the golden glow, Governor Zhang led the large team towards the post station.

Not long after the curfew, the streets have been cleared, and people should not be able to travel, but this is not the capital, and the governor is the largest official in Yunzhou, so the curfew cannot restrict him.

The postmen at the post station received the news in advance that the governor was returning today, and they were busy with dinner in full swing.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the station, Governor Zhang got out of the carriage on the wooden bench laid out by his entourage, and several Tonggongs who stayed behind at the station waited in the courtyard, including Xu Qi'an and the other three.

Governor Zhang was worried because of Yang Chuannan's reaction, when he saw Xu Qi'an, he was suddenly startled: "What's the matter with you?"

Xu Qi'an's eyes were bloodshot, and the dark circles under his eyes were not black, but black and blue, slightly swollen. It gives people the feeling that it will go away with the wind at any time, and become a feather and soar.

Jiang Luzhong came striding forward, staring at Xu Qi'an: "How long has it been?"

Xu Qi'an said depressedly: "It's been fifteen days."

"" Old Jiang took a breath: "How is the current state?"

"It's okay, I'll die anytime soon." Xu Qi'an said aloud.

Then it hasn't reached the limit yet, this kid has such a great potential for primordial spirit? To what extent will the primordial spirit advance by leaps and bounds when he is promoted to the realm of refining the gods?

A martial artist in the realm of refining the gods will have extremely sharp mental power, and any disturbance in the surrounding area will not be hidden from perception, especially if it is hostile.

Therefore, warriors in the realm of refining gods will hardly be ambushed. At the same time, the spirit, energy and spirit meet and complement each other, and the combat power will be upgraded to a higher level.

After the two of them finished talking about the old days, Governor Zhang held back and asked, "Ning Yan, do you have any clues about Zhou Min's secret code?"

"I have already got the ledger." Xu Qi'an replied calmly.

Governor Zhang was also very calm when he heard this, nodded and said, "Don't be discouraged, the code can always be solved."

He suddenly stopped and looked at Xu Qi'an silently.
