In the early morning, after Xiaoliu, Wushuang and Xiaoqi finished cleaning, they immediately packed their luggage and said goodbye to Elder Gong and others.

Although Xiaomi also wants to go back to Qixia Town, it is not convenient to walk with Xiaoliu and the other three, so it is not easy to go with him, but has agreed to meet again after Qixia Town.

"Since that's the case, then the green mountains will not change, and the green water will flow forever, and we will have a chance to go." Xiao Liu bowed his hand and said goodbye to Elder Gong and others.

"Let's go slowly." Elder Gong also brought him with his fists.

The little sixth and the other two got on the horse, looked at each other, looked at the sky, and took advantage of the clear weather, the three of them rode away all the way.

The horse is galloping and the dust is rising, and the shadows are fading across the mountains.

Seeing Xiaoliu and the others disappear into their sight, Elder Gong also withdrew his long-awaited gaze. He waved over Xiaomi casually and whispered a few words in his ear. Xiaomi nodded quickly.

Just as Xiao Liu and his friends left casually, in Luoyang City, dozens of miles away, there was a large group of people who wanted to leave but couldn't.

If it were the past, the morning bell would have sounded, and the four gates of east, west, south and north should have been opened, and merchants coming and going from all over the city gate should have been endless.

But today, Luoyang City suddenly revealed an unusual atmosphere everywhere. Before the morning bell rang, the city gate was closed, and merchants coming and going were allowed to enter and leave. The city walls were filled with fully armed guards. The streets were full of patrol constables and yamen runners. The shops were closed and the people were closed. In the past, the crowded streets were empty. This was almost like writing the big words "What happened to a big thing" directly on the city gate.

‘What’s wrong? Is it a war going to go?’ Some vendors who finally came in from other places couldn’t help but mutter in their hearts, and even regretted entering the city.

But at this moment, some people were even more at a loss than them.

The north of Luoyang City, Xu Mansion.

The old man wearing a blue official uniform and a white squid-replenished dress on his chest was paced back and forth.

This person is the Tongzhi of Luoyang and the highest official rank in Luoyang City. His mood is like a mess at this moment.

He didn't expect that when he woke up, Luoyang City would change, and his immediate superior was assassinated. Ke Zhengtong, the chief inspector of the Liumen of Luoyang who should have been in charge of the case, was missing, which made him instantly not sure what to do.

He had just seen the body of the prefect Xu, comforted the family of the Xu family, and promised to catch the murderer and punish him severely, but at this moment he was also confused, and he even knew the story of the matter.

The Wang family father and son had already returned to recuperate last night on the grounds that they had to recuperate because they had serious injuries. He sent someone to invite them, but they couldn't come at all, saying that it was a serious injury and it was difficult to move.

Vice Captain Liu took people to pursue Ke Zhengtong, and he could be said to have no one to ask.

"How is it? Is there any news about Captain Ke?" Looking at the Luoyang Tongzhe who was walking in, the old man quickly asked.

Judge Chen Tong shook his head.

"Oh, what should I do?" The old man couldn't help but sigh.

Judge Chen Tong bowed and said, "Sir, now that the prefect Xu is killed, you are the pillar of Luoyang Prefecture. You must not panic. You are still relying on you."

The old man also breathed a long sigh when he heard this, calmed down and sighed: "I don't know, but the burden is too heavy."

The old man felt a little tired. He was worried not only about catching the murderer, but also about the fact that this matter would inevitably alarm the court. When the court sent someone to investigate, then what the prefect Xu had done over the past 20 years would not be concealed, and he would not be able to guarantee that he would not be implicated at that time.

Judge Chen Tong looked around carefully. Seeing that no one was around, he quickly spoke in a low voice: "Don't worry, sir. Judging from the humble position, this time this matter is not a good thing."

"Good thing? How do you say it?" The old man looked at Judge Chen Tong in surprise when he heard this.

Judge Chen looked around again, approached the old man, and explained in a low voice:

"Sir, there is no air-open wall in this world. The Xu family and his son have been doing great things in Luoyang City for more than 20 years. The crimes are beyond words. The reason why nothing happened before was because someone in the court supported him. Now his backer has fallen. Judging from his humble position, even if there is no such thing, the Xu family and his son will sooner or later have to do something. Now that he died unexpectedly, this is a good thing for us."

The old man's eyes turned, as if he understood what Judge Chen Tong meant. "Do you want to?"

"Sir, wise." Seeing that the old man understood what he meant, Chen Tong hurriedly bowed his hand to praise him.

The old man also stopped the topic. He thought about it, then smiled, then sat down with his sleeves. At this time, he was no longer irritable, but rather was particularly clear.

He reached out to lure the seat beside him, letting Chen Tongshou sit down, and picked up a cup of cold tea, savoring and thinking.

"This hot tea has the fragrance of hot tea, and herbal tea has the beauty of herbal tea." The old man said while savoring, then took a big sip to refresh his mouth.

A hint of joy appeared on Judge Chen's face. He knew that the old man had made a decision and that the Xu family would be in trouble.

The Xu family of Magistrate Xu has been rampant in Luoyang City for 20 years. There have been countless people who offended it. There have been many dissatisfied with it. However, most people dare not speak out because of his power, and they can only make a fuss. Now that he is dead, it is the time when everyone pushes it.

"But this matter still needs to be discussed with Captain Ke, Cheng Qianhu and others." The old man put down the teacup in his hand and smiled and said as he looked at Chen Tongzong.

"Of course, I will invite Cheng Qianhu and the others here." Chen Tong understood what the old man meant, and quickly stood up to respond.

"By the way, sir, these four doors are closed and the vendors cannot leave the city. This is the vendors' petition, you see..." Chen Tongzong gently handed the letter in his hand to the old man.

The old man smiled and looked at Chen Tongzong, took it casually, glanced at him slightly, and then nodded immediately.

"I have searched for a night last night, but it has no results. I think those thieves have escaped from the city. Since that's the case, there is no need to lock down the city. It is our responsibility to calm people's hearts and not waste all industries. If Cheng Qianhu lifts the ban on leaving the city, it only takes a strict inspection."

"It's an adult." Chen Tong replied with a smile. He solved two things at once and was about to turn around and leave, but at this moment, a minor official ran in panic.

"Sir, I'm not doing well, Captain Ke is dead."
