Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 190 A hundred flowers bloom
Li Rui finally confirmed it.

It is the mysterious energy of immortals.

Wang Zhao slept with the Red Dragon Horse every night. By chance, the immortal energy connected with the Red Dragon Horse, which enabled him to understand horse language.

"Little Junior Brother, you are so capable!"

Liu Tiezhu gave Wang Zhao a thumbs up.

What’s the use of being good at martial arts? Look at my junior brother, he understands horse language. Who else in the world understands horse language?
So never underestimate any profession.

See, raising horses can lead to great success.

As the old saying goes, there are 360 ​​professions and every profession has its top talent.

Yang Yong and Liang He noticed something unusual here and came over.

Upon hearing it, they were all amazed.

Wang Zhao scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

Li Rui's eyes looked even weirder.

Listen.

His apprentice must be crazy. Every night, he would not sleep in his own bed but go to sleep in the stable.

Perhaps it is for this reason that there is a connection with the aura of the Red Dragon Horse.

"What an idiot."

Wang Zhao was born with a love for horses, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to do it with just his immortal energy.

But it is this obsession that can bring about such incredible changes.

I have heard of sword maniacs and knife maniacs many times, but this horse maniac is the first time I have seen one.

Li Rui chuckled and patted Wang Zhao on the shoulder:

"You will definitely become a great horse master in the future."

As the saying goes, interest is the greatest motivation.

Wang Zhao loves horses, has perseverance, and can now communicate with horses. These qualities alone are enough to make him an excellent horse trainer.

If he can improve his martial arts in the future, becoming the Grand Horse Master is a sure thing.

Wang Zhao nodded seriously:
"Master, I will never let you down."

Looking at the three young men in front of him, Li Rui even felt relieved.

It's good for everyone to go their own way. It would be boring if everyone became martial artists in the same old way.

Li Rui waved his hand:
"Dahong will be your horse from now on."

Hear the words.

Wang Zhao's eyes widened immediately: "Master."

Seeing that Wang Zhao was almost moved to tears, Li Rui laughed and scolded: "If you can become a great horse master, you will be more useful to me than a horse. Besides, you have slept with him, how can I break you up?"

"."

"."

Liang He and Liu Tiezhu were speechless for a moment.

Although it sounds like something is wrong, I can't seem to tell what's wrong.

Wang Zhao did sleep with the Red Dragon Horse.

This is a fact.

After a while, Wang Zhao finally understood the situation and nodded vigorously: "I will definitely not let Master down."

"That's right."

Li Rui laughed out loud.

It's just a horse, there's nothing to be reluctant about, especially since it's not for someone else, but for his own apprentice.

Others have achieved unity of man and sword, but Wang Zhao is now the only one who has achieved unity of man and horse.

The Red Dragon Horse itself has the strength of half a seventh-grade warrior. With Wang Zhao controlling it, it can be used as a seventh-grade warrior.

In Wang Zhao's hands, it is much more useful than just a mount.

Moreover, if Wang Zhao's horse-riding skills become more sophisticated in the future, Li Rui will also be able to gain insights from the immortal energy in his body.

It's a win-win situation, so why not do it?

"Master Chai has come a long way, thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work."

Beside the official road.

Yingchun Pavilion.

Cao Wei was speaking while bowing to a middle-aged Confucian scholar who was wearing a green official robe with a white pheasant patch on it.

Yingchun Pavilion, also known as the Reception Pavilion, is a place specially set up to welcome distinguished guests.

Cao Wei went to the reception pavilion to meet him ten miles in advance, which was a great honor and also showed the other party's importance.

From the official robe that the middle-aged scholar is wearing, it can be seen that he is a civil servant of the fifth rank.

The middle-aged scholar also clasped his fists in return: "Master Cao, it has been five years since we last met in the capital. I miss you so much."

Cao Wei laughed and said, "Don't go home until you are drunk tonight."

The official with the surname Chai was Chai Jingong, Langzhong of the Yunzhou Qingli Division of the Ministry of Justice.

When he was a deputy minister in the Ministry of War, Chai Jingong came to Beijing to take up his post, and the two had met once.

The Ministry of Justice is one of the six ministries, responsible for trying cases and enforcing criminal law.

Together with the Dali Temple and the Censorate, they are collectively known as the Three Judicial Departments.

The so-called three-court trial refers to these three departments.

However, the three have their own division of labor. The main duty of the Censorate is to supervise all officials and also supervise the Ministry of Justice in trying cases, but it does not directly participate in the trial of cases.

As for the Dali Temple, although it also participates in the trial of cases, it focuses more on reviewing the cases after the Ministry of Justice has tried them.

The Ministry of Justice had resident agencies in every state of the Yu State, namely the Qinglisi.

The chief official of the Qinglisi was called Langzhong.

Chai Jingong waved his hand and said, "Brother Cao, it's too early for this. You know that His Majesty attaches great importance to the Gao Zhen case. Minister Gao has ordered us to solve the case as soon as possible. I am just a forerunner. I heard that the great alchemist from the Imperial Observatory will be here in a few days."

Cao Wei heard it.

"Qin Tian Jian?"

Chai Jingong nodded: "Yes, I heard that the Taoist priest from the Imperial Observatory has the ability to predict the weather, which may help solve the case."

Cao Wei's heart sank.

As he expected, Gao Zhen's death had a huge impact.

Generally speaking, the Imperial Observatory only obeys the emperor's orders. Since the Imperial Observatory has come, it means that His Majesty the Emperor has noticed this matter.

In the State of Yu, the emperor's concerns were all very important, and it was not just the Gao family that mattered.

Chai Jingong smiled bitterly: "Brother Cao, let's discuss the case first and solve it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to report to the emperor."

Cao Wei nodded.

The person is already dead, and he will definitely be held accountable.

He heard about this from his good friend in Annan Town a few days ago. When General Xue heard about this, he was furious and called him a waste more than a dozen times.

Who is the waste?

It’s definitely him, maybe with Jiang Linxian as well.

The person died in his jurisdiction, so he must solve the case as soon as possible in order to make amends.

Say it.

Neither of them was in the mood to drink anymore, so Cao Wei simply mounted his horse and followed Chai Jingong straight to Anningwei.

"This is."

"Someone from the Ministry of Justice?"

Some knowledgeable generals could tell at a glance that the riders following Cao Wei were from the Ministry of Justice's Qingli Division.

Ge Hong, Li Rui and others also saw this scene.

Ge Hong was surprised and said, "It seems that Gao is really in trouble, otherwise he wouldn't have alerted the people in the Ministry of Justice."

Everyone else nodded.

No need to think about it.

Just by looking at the badge, one can tell that the doctors from the Ministry of Justice's Qingli Division have all come. They are fifth-rank officials, on the same level as Cao Wei. Of course, the only possibility that they came to An Ning Wei is because of Gao Zhen's matter.

Wei Ming narrowed his eyes:

"It's Lord Chai from the Ministry of Justice. I met him before when I was in Yunzhou. I heard that he is resourceful and good at making decisions. He has solved many unsolved cases that have been suppressed for decades."

Ge Hong and Tan Hu were surprised:
"so smart?"

Wei Ming nodded.

The State of Yu was able to rule for a thousand years, so it must have had its own unique way of selecting people.

This Lord Chai was able to become the chief sent by the Ministry of Justice to preside over punishments in an area. Of course, he must have some powerful means.

Wei Ming recalled the rumors he had heard in Yunzhou before:

"I heard that this Lord Chai is in the form of a pig, with an extremely sensitive sense of smell, able to sense smells that ordinary people cannot sense."

"Pig-shaped?"

Hear the words.

Several people were dumbfounded.

There are really many strange things in the world. There are even people who can gather energy and turn into pigs.

Wei Ming also smiled happily: "The pig form is not of high rank, but the advancement speed is very fast. This Lord Chai is quite capable. He has reached the sixth-rank Dragon Gate, and then used the pig form to practice a set of means to solve cases, and was valued by the head of the Ministry of Justice."

Li Rui found this interesting.

It turns out that there are no useless spirits in this world, only useless people.

Look at Lord Chai, he has become a fifth-rank official.

The official positions of military officers of the Yu State generally correspond to their realms. For example, Cao Wei was of the fifth rank, so his official position was also of the fifth rank.

But civil servants are not so strict.

Although the higher the official position, the stronger the ability will be, it does not mean that one can only become an official after reaching a certain level.

That is why Lord Chai was able to become a fifth-rank doctor in the Ministry of Justice with a sixth-rank realm.

"Pig-shaped."

Li Rui's heart moved slightly.

General's Mansion, lobby.

"Brother Cao, are you saying that after Gao Zhen left the military camp, no one has seen him since?"

Chai Jin listened respectfully to Cao Wei's narration of the entire case, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Ah."

Cao Wei nodded.

Chai Jingong found something suspicious: "Since Gao Zhen said he was out for inspection, and it was in the daytime, I have seen many caravans coming and going along the way, so it shouldn't have been discovered by anyone."

"Unless he is trying to hide it on purpose."

Cao Wei sighed, "Brother Chai, you don't know. I felt the same way, so I sent people to investigate, but there were no clues. I couldn't figure out why Gao Zhen concealed his whereabouts and left the city alone."

Chai Jingong leaned back, his eyes slightly narrowed, and his nose moved rhythmically.

People who are familiar with him know that this is his habitual action when analyzing a case.

Several men from the Yunzhou Qingli Division of the Ministry of Justice were waiting quietly; they had long been accustomed to it.

"There's no need to hide official business from you, Lord Cao, so it's most likely a private matter. Gao Zhen hasn't been in Qinghe for long, so it should be a private matter brought over from Luyang."

Cao Wei's eyes lit up.

This Chai Jingong is indeed capable.

It's quite amazing that he was able to quickly organize and analyze this information after just listening to the case.

"It seems that his ability to solve cases like a god depends on more than just his pig nose."

When he was in the capital, he had already heard of the name of Detective Chai Jingong.

If he did not have this ability, how could Chai Jingong, a third-class Jinshi and a sixth-rank military man, be promoted to the position of a fifth-rank Langzhong of the Ministry of Justice?

Cao Wei himself had achieved a breakthrough in his realm, and by chance he made friends with a noble from the Fifth Prince's faction, which led to his promotion to the rank of fifth-rank lieutenant general.

"So how is Lord Chai going to solve the case?"

Industry specializing in surgery.

Since the people from the Ministry of Justice have arrived, of course he just needs to cooperate.

When it comes to solving the case, his goal is the same as Chai Jingong's.

Chai Jingong sighed softly: "We can only analyze the files first. Sir Cao, please bring Gao Zhen's files and all the records since Gao Zhen came to Anningwei."

Although he had some guesses, guessing alone was useless. What the Emperor wanted was evidence.

Is it possible that the file submitted when the case is closed must include my humble speculation?
Therefore, we must start with the most basic file analysis, even though the information in the vast amount of files is fragmented and has no pattern.

But often the truth is hidden in these confusing information.

"check!"
