Chapter 347 Outsiders
Shi Huo is a prudent young man. Facing Governor Luo, he said neither humble nor overbearing: "I was ordered to interrogate Pingli."
"Why was he interrogated?" Luo Dadu asked.
Shi Huo said: "The person who assassinated Liuqing county magistrate confessed that he was ordered by Pingli."
Luo Dadu's eyes shrank, and he wanted to ask whether the person who assassinated the magistrate of Liuqing belonged to a certain killer organization, but he swallowed it abruptly.
The emperor is a suspicious person. After he got involved in the past twelve years ago, he ordered many parties to participate in the investigation, in order to check and balance each other.
King Kaiyang is one of them.
He asked King Kaiyang about this, and it would be bad if it got into the ears of the emperor.
For Governor Luo, who just came out of the prison, it is natural to be cautious.
Ahem, he is not in a hurry, maybe King Kaiyang will tell Sheng'er on his own initiative.
Governor Luo thought of this in a flash of inspiration, and after thinking about it again, he felt that he was sure.
Seeing that Governor Luo was silent, Shi Huo cupped his hands and asked, "Governor, I wonder if it's not convenient to mention someone now?"
Governor Luo withdrew his thoughts, his expression suddenly heavy: "To tell the truth, Pingli escaped."
escaped?
Shi Huo looked at Governor Luo in astonishment.
The people who were imprisoned in Jinlinwei Prison escaped. Why did Governor Luo feel so flattering to him just now?
Like taking advantage of something.
Of course, Shi Huo is not the third younger brother Shi Yan, even the surprise is subtle.
"Can the governor tell you the details, so that I can explain to the master."
Luo Dadu looked embarrassed: "I am not strict in discipline, my daughter and Pingli brothers and sisters are deeply in love, and she made a fuss about seeing him, but Pingli hijacked my daughter..."
Shi Huo was stunned.
Miss Luo and Pingli brothers and sisters are deeply in love?
Miss Luo was kidnapped by Pingli?
This news is indeed a bit surprising.
Shi Huo left Jinlinwei Yamen in a hurry, and reported the news to Wei Han.
"Can you say that again."
Ming Mingming's tone was calm, but Shi Huo could hear the chills, and hurriedly repeated it.
"Doctor Luo really said that?"
Shi Huo clasped his fists together: "The Governor Luo told the humble official himself."
Wei Han suddenly got up and strode out.
Governor Luo Dadu was patiently waiting for the news, when Jin Linwei came in to report that King Kaiyang had arrived.
Governor Luo was slightly surprised.
The personal guards have already been here, King Kaiyang wouldn't make another trip, right?
No matter what you think in your heart, you can't lose courtesy to King Kaiyang, Governor Luo greeted him calmly, and said politely: "I didn't expect the prince to come here, it's good to send someone to say something—"
Wei Han cut to the chase: "I heard that Pingli hijacked your daughter."
"I'm ashamed, I made the prince laugh at me." Governor Luo showed embarrassment.
It is a shocking scandal that his daughter elopes with a traitor who has been imprisoned. It is because Sheng'er has honed him over the years that he can be so calm.
"Is it Miss Luo Er?" Wei Han asked again.
On the way to Jinlinwei Yamen, he thought that Shi Huo must have misheard, but he still needed to ask, so that he could truly feel at ease.
Governor Luo was a little unhappy.
Why is this kind of scandal still getting to the bottom of it?
Unexpectedly, King Kaiyang is also a gossip.
But people ran from him, and he was able to come out thanks to the help of the young man in front of him. Governor Luo couldn't hold back, so he nodded: "It's that useless girl."
Wei Han raised his lips.
Governor Luo:?
Wei Han straightened his face immediately: "If the governor needs help, just ask."
That serious face made Governor Luo think he was dazzled just now.
"Thank you, my lord."
The two of them didn't have much to say at first, and after a few more pleasantries, Wei Han said, "Then I'll take my leave."
The governor Luo breathed a sigh of relief: "My lord, go slowly."
Wei Han walked a few steps, but stopped suddenly.
"My lord, is there anything else?"
"Today...is there a restaurant open?"
Governor Luo was silent for a moment.
He suddenly felt that this was the real purpose of King Kaiyang's visit.
Cough, cough, Sheng'er will open if he wants to open, and close if he wants to close. How can I tell him.
But you can't show your timidity in front of outsiders.
Governor Luo immediately looked serious: "I didn't hear Sheng'er say that the restaurant is closed today, and it should be open. But it doesn't make any difference to me, anyway, Sheng'er will prepare my wine and food every day."
Wei Han gently raised his eyebrows.
He felt that Governor Luo was showing off to him.
But considering the relationship between Governor Luo and Miss Luo, I had to forget it.
"Thank you, the chief inspector, for letting me know." Wei Han nodded slightly, and strode away from Jinlinwei Yamen.
Back to the palace, Wei Han said coldly: "Call Shi Huo over here."
Shi Huo quickly rushed over: "What is the master's order?"
"Put aside the matter at hand for the time being, and go clean the Gong bucket."
Shi Huo walked out blankly.
Brushing the Gong barrel is one of the tortures in the palace. I don't know what he did wrong, but he even snatched the errands that the third and fourth brothers often do.
Wei Han picked up the teacup and took a few sips slowly, showing no sympathy for the guard who sent him to clean the barrel.
This can be mistaken, so it is suitable for brushing Gong barrels.
How could it be possible for Miss Luo to be deeply in love with the Pingli brothers and sisters.
It took three days for Pingli to hide.
He chose not to go out of town.
It is easier to hide in the city than to flee in a panic after leaving the city.
In the city, there are several houses that he has bought one after another over the years, from the west city where the nobles gather, to the east city where the three religions gather, and even the two cities in the north and south.
Hiraguri hid in an inconspicuous residence in Dongcheng.
Here is a mixed bag of dragons and snakes, and he doesn't show any faces. If he hides in the place he settled earlier, no one will try to find him.
He has been in Jinlinwei for many years, and Jinlinwei's tracking methods are no threat to him at all.
Furthermore, although Jin Linwei has a scary reputation, they are actually ordinary people. They may be good at house raids, but they are not clairvoyant and ear-sounding gods.
The only annoying thing is that this place has been patronized by thieves, and the food he prepared for a rainy day is gone.
Hiragi rubbed his belly, looking in the direction of the door with some hesitation.
He fled all the way here and didn't dare to buy a lot of food. He only bought six meat buns in a hurry three days ago.
Having been accustomed to delicacies from mountains and seas over the years, he has long stopped paying a second glance at such humble food as meat buns.
Unexpectedly, when he was in a mess, it was meat buns that fed him.
That year, it was also a meat bun that made him change the fate of the beggar.
Diagonally across the intersection from the hiding place, there is a stall selling meat buns, maybe that's why he bought it in the first place.
The heavy snow three days ago, because the sunny days have begun to melt, it is colder than the snow when it melts, especially when you are hungry, you can't withstand such a cold weather.
Hiragi licked his blue lips, but still made up his mind to buy some meat buns.
Going out to buy food will take some risks, but you can't stay here and starve to death.
It's the last day of the month, and I'm struggling to get a ticket. Goodbye is next month, good night.
