Chapter 713 The Murder Case Again
As long as they take action, they will fall into Li Canghai's expectations.

Now they realized that they could not use conventional means to deal with Li Canghai, they had to do the opposite, so as to catch Li Canghai by surprise.

The emperor only gave him two days, and now a full day has passed, which means that there is not much time left for Li Canghai.

As long as Li Canghai fails to catch the murderer within the time limit, he will die.

"My lord, although the officer understands what you said, what should he do if he really finds out the truth?" Song Kun asked worriedly.

Yang Guozhong rubbed his chin, what Song Kun said was the same worry in his heart.

Li Canghai's abilities are unimaginable, especially his talent for solving crimes, which is simply eye-catching.

"Yes! Doesn't Li Canghai like to meddle in other people's business? Then I will find something for him." Yang Guozhong said flatly.

"Your Excellency, do you mean...?"

Yang Guozhong hooked his fingers and asked Song Kun to come over.

After listening, Song Kun nodded again and again, stretched out his fingers and praised: "My lord, this move is really clever! It's not too late, I'll do it now!"

Tianbao 13 years, the first day of the first month.

Night, heavy snow.

The majestic Chang'an City gradually returned to tranquility after a noisy day.

In Yongyangfang, the white old man was walking with a lantern, creaking on the snow.

The shops on both sides of the street have long been closed, and the whole street is silent, only the cold wind howling.

The white old man wrapped himself in a worn wool padded jacket, shook the sauced meat in his hand, and showed a bright smile on his wrinkled old face.

Although he lives in Chang'an, he is just an ordinary citizen, and his life is still very difficult.

He couldn't remember how many years he hadn't eaten sauced pork.

If he hadn't been rewarded with a piece of sauced meat this time, he wouldn't have the ability to get this meat.

Thinking of New Year's Eve, his family was still eating light vegetable cakes without a trace of oil, and the old man felt guilty for a while.

Fortunately, I got a piece of sauced meat this time. Thinking of the whole family gathering together and eating the sauced meat happily, the smile on the old man's face became even brighter.

The white old man was happily walking with his head bowed, and bumped into a person suddenly.

The man ouched and scolded: "It's midnight, who dares to bump into me?"

The old man Bai was startled, he quickly raised his head, and found two yamen servants patrolling the street standing in front of him.

"Oh, it turned out to be Master Bian. The little old man accidentally bumped into Master Bian. I hope Master Bian will forgive me." The white old man looked at the two of them and said with an apologetic smile.

The two of them were acquainted with the old man Bai, and one of the older yamen servants patted his chest and said: "Who am I talking about? I dare say it is the old man Bai! Why, how come this Zensheng came back again today?" Night?"

"Hey, Lord Bian, it's not like you don't know how long it will be too soon for the little old man to do this job?" the old man Bai said with an apologetic smile on his face.

"Hey, there's sauced meat! It just so happens that our brothers are a little hungry after patrolling the streets!" Another yamen servant saw the sauced meat in the old man's hand, and said in a long voice on purpose.

The white old man's face changed slightly, it was clear that he was going to block the way and rob him!
But the other party is the yamen servant in charge of this square, and he can't afford to offend him, but if he is asked to hand over the sauce, he is unwilling in his heart.

"The two masters are hungry after patrolling the streets, so the little old man should serve the sauced meat. It's just..." The old man Bai felt a little embarrassed.

"Just what?" the yamen servant stared at the sauce meat tightly, and asked with bright eyes.

"It's just that this sauced meat is rewarded by the team..."

"Are you talking about the guards?" Before the old man Bai finished speaking, the yamen servant surnamed Bian asked.

The old man Bai nodded, and said: "Yes! The guards are saying that the little old man has worked very hard this year, so he rewarded the little old man with a piece of sauced meat, and let the little old man take it home for his family to taste."

Hearing this, the yamen servant surnamed Bian changed his attitude immediately, and said with an apologetic smile: "This is a misunderstanding, our brother was just joking with you, and it made you nervous. Could it be that our brothers still can't afford sauced meat?" ? It's getting late, you should go back quickly, your family must be anxious at this time."

Seeing that the two let him go, the white old man hurriedly nodded to the two, and then walked quickly towards the house.

Another yamen servant wanted to stop the old man, but was severely beaten on the back of the hand by the surnamed Bian.

"Brother Bian, we are patrolling the streets, isn't it just to get more oil and water? This old man's sauce meat is quite delicious, and you can have a full meal no matter what you get. Why did you let him go?" The yamen servant was annoyed. typical.

The yamen servant surnamed Bian glared at him, and cursed: "Why don't you say you are an idiot? Do you think that old man's sauced meat is so delicious? You snatched his sauced meat. If you wait for him to go to work tomorrow , I told the superiors, you and I missed the errand, and if we fail, we will be beaten to death!"

"What? Is it so serious?" The yamen servant was surprised when he saw that Bian spoke so harshly.

The yamen servant surnamed Bian glared at him, and snorted, "You're still too young. Although we all work as errands to make money, we still have to learn how to read our words. Like this white old man, although he is a common man, the forces behind him, But even our Chang'an Mansion is afraid of them, offending them, unless you don't want to live!"

The yamen servant gasped when he heard the words, and said, "My dear boy, I didn't expect the power behind this little old man to be so powerful? Brother Bian, what kind of power do you think is behind him?"

"Go, let's go, let's talk while walking. If you want to talk about the power behind this old man, that's extraordinary..."

Accompanied by the crunching, crunching sound of stepping on the snow, the two gradually drifted away.

……

The next day, Li Canghai was sleeping when he suddenly heard a hasty call to the door.

Before he got up, Di Qing kicked open the door and hurried in.

With a sudden shake, Di Qing pulled the confused Li Canghai up.

"Canghai, get up quickly! There's a murder case!" Di Qing said as she took the clothes beside her in her hand and put them on for Li Canghai.

Li Canghai, who was still in a daze, suddenly woke up when he heard the word 'murder'.

"Murder case? Another murder case? What's going on?" Li Canghai asked hastily.

Di Qing put on the clothes for him, and said: "I don't know what happened, it seems to be a massacre. Mr. Han, Governor of Chang'an Prefecture, is waiting for you in the main hall!"

The two hurriedly got dressed, Li Canghai washed his face indiscriminately, and then went to the main hall.

In the main hall, Han Qu was pacing back and forth anxiously.

"Master Han, what happened?" Li Canghai asked after stepping into the inner hall.

"Lord Li, it's not good. Someone came to report this morning, saying that a homicide occurred in the south of the city. The officials went to the scene to check, but found nothing. Master Li is now in a whirlpool, and the officials shouldn't bother. But this case is very strange. , I have no choice but to come and seek help from adults..." Han Qu bowed to Li Canghai with his hands wrapped in his sleeves.
