"Open the court!" Miles said with a dignified expression.
The fake Sang Baigu was filled with bitterness and hoped that this mission could be completed soon. But the reality was obviously not as good as he expected. After an incense stick of time, Sang Baigu still did not appear around the government office. Instead, the onlookers saw that he refused to speak and began to suggest that Miles torture him to extract a confession. They were very indignant.
"What should I do?" Behind the screen, Oliver asked worriedly, "If I go down further, my secret will be revealed."
Asher frowned slightly, winked at the master, called him over and whispered a few words. The master nodded repeatedly and said loudly after returning, "What's wrong with you saying it in front of everyone?"
The fake Sang Baigu nodded repeatedly.
When the people onlookers saw this, they all expressed strong dissatisfaction. They waited at the gate of the government office early in the morning and heard nothing. This kind of thing is simply intolerable. Even if they are ugly, they are not beautiful in heart. They are not even as good as red radish. It is really bad. .
"Come here!" Miles said, "Take him to the back hall, I will continue the interrogation."
The bailiffs dragged the fake funeral bones away. The people looked resentful, but they did not dare to speak out to interfere. They could only hope that after the interrogation was over, the government would post a notice as soon as possible so that they could know what had happened.
"I'm so tired." As soon as he walked to the back hall, the fake Sang Baigu's legs went weak and he sat down on a chair.
The other secret guards expressed their humanitarian condolences to him and said that this outfit was so domineering and they were all very envious.
The expression can be sincere.
"What should we do next?" Miles asked Asher.
"Could it be that the Sangbaigu brothers were never separated at all?" Oliver guessed that if this was the case, then everything would be in vain.
"I've already gambled, so why not continue to bet bigger." Asher said, "Secretly sending people to spread the news, saying that the Sangbaigu brothers actually have a bad relationship. The one caught has told everything in order to save his life."
"That's indeed possible." Miles said, "If they were close, it's impossible for them to not show up even though they knew the other person was arrested."
"Now that the matter has come to this, we can only continue to act." Asher asked, "Does Mr. Wen agree to my plan?"
"Of course." Miles nodded, "Everything depends on the arrangements of Palace Master Qin."
That night, a new rumor spread in the city, saying that Sang Baigu and his brother had actually turned against each other, and were not as loving and affectionate as described in the book! After being taken to the back hall, the white-headed green-faced monster confessed many shocking secrets. It was said that Master Shen was frightened on the spot and cried non-stop, trembling and throwing himself into the arms of Palace Master Qin for comfort.
That's right, although this matter actually has nothing to do with Oliver, because Sang Baigu is so ugly, the people still firmly added Shen Xiaoshou's role in the rumors to make it more pleasing to the eye when thinking about it. .
The next morning, Oliver woke up to the sound of birds singing. He turned his head and saw Asher still sleeping, so he stretched out his hand and pinched his stomach. The muscle lines were a little hard, and Shen Xiaoshou curled his lips silently. This kind of thing is completely fun! It's a pity that he can enjoy it every morning.
The corners of Asher's mouth raised, and he turned over to suppress him, "Little pig."
"Get up." Oliver said, "Let's go see if there is any news about the missing bones."
"Don't mention these troublesome things early in the morning." Asher rubbed his head, "I won't do it next time."
"You think I want to mention it." Oliver pushed him away and sat up, "Aren't you worried that such a big matter is pending?"
"There's no point in worrying. Why bother yourself?" Asher said, "Besides, good will prevail over evil. Things will eventually be resolved."
"That being said, I still want to resolve the matter as soon as possible." Oliver got out of bed and put on his shoes, "Otherwise, there might be more trouble."
In the small courtyard, Miles was eating Yangchun noodles for breakfast. Maoqiu squatted on the table next to him and took two bites of beef jerky, then stretched his neck to look at Miles's bowl.
"Want to eat?" Miles ordered someone to go to the kitchen and help it get a small plate out.
"Chirp!" Maoqiu didn't even look at the noodles, turned around and jumped into the arms of the secret guard, kicked his chest seriously with his claws, then twisted and ran back to Miles, raising his head and chirping.
Miles looked puzzled. The secret guard took out a pack of beef jerky from his arms and put it on the table and said, "Master Wen, my young palace master invited you."
"Chirp!" Furball said proudly, running back to the plate and eating beef again.
Miles:...
In fact, the noodles are not that difficult to eat.
"Lord Wen." After a while, Asher and Oliver also stepped into the courtyard.
"Master, why are you up so early?" The secret guards were all shocked.
Oliver:...
Why do you make me sound so lazy? I also get up very early in Zhuiying Palace, but I just like to lie on the bed and read.
"I'll ask someone to go out and buy breakfast." Miles stood up and put the little phoenix in his arms on the table.
"Chew." Maoqiu threw himself into Asher's arms affectionately, wanting to throw him high.
"No need." Oliver said, "There are ready-made things in the kitchen, just eat whatever you want."
"Only Yangchun noodles." Miles was a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter." Oliver said, "Yangchun noodles are Yangchun noodles."
"Sir, try it first. If you don't like it, I'll send someone to buy more." Miles ordered the kitchen to cook two bowls of noodles. Although they were much more filling than the one he had eaten before, they were still very plain!
"Chiu!" While being tickled by Asher, Maoqiu stretched his neck to express his contempt again.
Miles:...
Oliver was not picky about food. He sat at the table and ate while asking, "Do you know the whereabouts of the bones?"
"Not yet." Miles shook his head. "I asked the left protector this morning, and there is no new information about the hidden line of Zhuiying Palace."
"Then we can only wait a few more days." Oliver sighed, "I don't know if this method will work."
"Young Master, there is no need to worry." The secret guard said, "Brother Sang Baigu has always been very suspicious. Even if he hears the news, it will definitely take a few days before there is any news."
As the secret guard said, Sang Gu became restless after hearing the news. Although his relationship with Sang Bai was not very good, they had done a lot of things together. If he chose to compromise with Zhuiying Palace to save his life, he would inevitably be implicated.
A few days later, the secret guards picked a busiest time to take the "Sang Bai Gu" from the government office to Zhui Ying Palace, and even wanted to beat gongs and drums to attract more attention. In the afternoon of that day, Ivy led a team of people out of the city in person, and the momentum was very huge. People spread the word that the white-headed green-faced monster had revealed some incredible news, so the left protector went out of the city in person to investigate.
When the news reached Sanggu's ears, his already anxious mood of the past few days was further fueled, and he wished he could cut Sangbai into pieces to vent his anger.
"There is no basis at all, just acting like this?" Oliver was a little worried.
"Who said there is no basis?" Asher hugged him and put him on the table, leaned over and k!ssed him, "Sweet, did you eat some candy?"
"Stop messing around." Oliver pushed him away, "Seriously, what's your basis?" He was clearly just guessing!
"Since Sang Baigu and others have a bad relationship as brothers, it wouldn't be surprising if one of them betrays the other if he falls into the hands of Zhuiying Palace." Asher pinched his nose.
"What about sending Protector Zuo out of the city?" Oliver asked again.
"This is really half a guess and half a bet." Asher said, "Do you have any secrets?"
"Huh?" Oliver was confused.
"Everyone has their own secrets." Asher said, "Suppose you have always had an enemy, and one day this enemy suddenly claims to have your secret, and after the government talks with him, it immediately sends soldiers out of the city. What is your first reaction after hearing the news?"
Oliver said, "The government teamed up with him and wanted to track down my secret."
"That's right." Asher nodded. "No matter how innocent a person is, there are always things in their hearts that they can't let go, let alone a sinister villain like Sang Baigu. No matter whether the one in the city is Sang Bai or Sang Gu, if they find out that the other person has joined forces with Zhuiying Palace, they will definitely feel guilty. I sent Ivy out of the city to force him to be unable to control himself."
"Yeah." Oliver said clearly, "I understand."
"By the way, does Ling'er have any little secrets?" Asher pinched his chin.
"Since it's a secret, I naturally won't tell you." Oliver jumped off the table and walked out.
"You're already married, tell me about it." Asher stuck to him like a big plaster.
"I have to go to the accounting office, you go and do business." Oliver chased people away.
"No!" Asher was very persistent, "I am used to being idle and I like being supported by my wife."
"Stay away from me!" Oliver trotted all the way.
The secret guard sat on the treetop and was full of emotions, chasing and playing, my palace master and his wife were really interesting.
Since Ivy left the city, the guards at the four gates of Yunlan City have gradually relaxed. Miles turned the original one-by-one inspection into a random inspection in accordance with the previous agreement. And new rumors began to spread among the people, saying that due to the extreme cooperation of the white-headed and green-faced monster, a lot of things were discovered, so Mr. Wen was going to be promoted.
The news reached Sanggu's ears, and he finally couldn't sit still at all.
Miles is notoriously difficult to deal with in the officialdom, being selfless and disdainful of worldliness, so the officials above him don't like him. Such a person can be promoted only if he has made extraordinary achievements and is recommended by senior officials in the court.
As for what that achievement was... Reminiscent of the rumors a few days ago that Sangbai had been bribed, and that the Zuo Guardian of the Shadow Palace had personally led people out of the city, Sanggu clenched his hands tightly into iron fists, and his eyes seemed to want to squirt. fire.
There was thunder in the sky and heavy rain fell instantly. The rainwater spilled over the threshold into the woodshed, which was wet and cold. Half a roast chicken was thrown in the corner, looking very shabby.
If it weren't for that so-called brother, I wouldn't be in such a miserable state.
Sang Gu's eyes were bloodshot. He picked up the package on the ground, changed his appearance quickly, and disappeared into the endless rain curtain under the cover of night.
