The Rogue Remains

When Lu Qiyu arrived at the outskirts of the city that day, it was already close to noon.

After King Younan arrived in Ningcheng, he took people to the place where Li Lian's body disappeared early in the morning to check.

To be honest, Lu Shenzhang didn't want to go. After all, he just arrived in Ningcheng a few days ago. He was missing at the scene of the crime he should go to, and he tried his best to find the evidence. Now that so many days have passed, King Younan I don't know what medicine I took wrongly, so I rushed all the way from the capital, and as soon as I arrived in Ningcheng, I ordered people to rush to the outskirts of the city.

"Ha--" Lu Qiyu yawned slowly,

The place where Li Lian disappeared was not far from Ningcheng. Fang Jing's confidant, Zhang Ji, was responsible for escorting the corpse back to Beijing.Zhang Ji is more than brave, but not resourceful.However, escorting the corpse back to Beijing is a long journey, and anything can happen along the way, what is needed is someone with strong force.Zhang Ji was ordered to lead [-] entourages and transport them carefully all the way.Unexpectedly, within a few miles, the coffin was suddenly found dripping water.This is nothing unusual, in order to preserve the body, Li Chengyao transported a lot of ice cubes to keep it. Later, his family was ransacked and beheaded. Deputy General Fang didn't stop this matter, and put fresh ice on it every day.

"I thought it was because the sun outside was so strong that the ice cubes had melted, but the water dripped all the way, and I was worried that the young master would be damaged by the water, so I went to check, who knows... Open it and see Then I realized that the person lying inside was not the young master at all!"

Zhang Ji pointed to a big tree in front of him: "It's there. I asked people to stop to rest, and the carriage with the remains was parked there."

The person in front of Zhang Ji was dressed in Confucian attire, in his thirties, with a middle-up face, and a natural expression when talking. He looked like a long-sleeved, dancer, and tactful person.Lu Qiyu met him in the capital—Ye Changfeng, the head of the twelve guards of King Younan.

"Master Lu." Ye Changfeng noticed Lu Qiyu, talked to Zhang Ji for a few words, and then walked towards this side.

"Master Ye, it's really impolite for Lu to come here now because he got caught up in trifles."

Ye Changfeng smiled: "Even if I came ten days earlier, I still can't get as many clues as Lu Shen caught half a day ago. The prince attaches great importance to this matter, and asks Mr. Lu to find out as soon as possible and find the body of Young Master Lian."

Lu Qiyu nodded, "It's natural, it's just a suburb of the city, and it was searched as early as the first day Lu Mou came to Ningcheng. Master Zhang Jizhang also cooperated with Lu Mou to explain the situation when the crime happened that day. For example, could it be that you don't trust the subordinates?"

Ye Changfeng shook his head, seeming to be emotional: "My lord is also out of desperation. Master Lian... Alas, my lord suddenly heard the bad news, so it's inevitable..."

Lu Qiyu said: "I have already asked Mr. Zhang Ji Zhang about everything I should ask. If Guanshi Ye wants to know anything else, he can ask himself."

Ye Changfeng was not annoyed, he turned around and began to question Zhang Ji: "Master Zhang, where did you just say that? Oh, I wonder if your lord has confirmed the corpse inside when loading the coffin into the car?"

"The young master is in a coffin, so people of our identities naturally dare not offend easily."

"That's not confirmed."

Zhang Ji shook his head, "There is no possibility of mistakes. The person responsible for the funeral is Mr. Fang. He has been with the general for decades, and he is very familiar with the young master. The day before, he finished the inspection, so he was relieved to let us escort the young master back to Beijing. .”

"Did anything strange happen on that road?"

Zhang Ji thought about it, "Many people have already asked this question. But now that I think about it carefully, I think it's a bit strange."

That day, Zhang Ji and Fang Jing parted ways at the gate of Ningcheng City. Before leaving, Zhang Ji inspected the coffin and found nothing unusual, let alone any inscriptions.The weather was fine that day, and the sun was hotter than usual. Zhang Ji and his party left Ningcheng. After walking a few steps, they heard someone calling him from behind.

Looking back, I found that it was someone I didn't know.It was an ordinary-looking young man who walked with heavy steps, not like a martial arts practitioner.Zhang Ji didn't take it to heart, just asked him what he wanted to do.

The man ran to him, out of breath, and said that he was Fang Jing's man. Vice General Fang forgot a word when he was parting, and asked him to catch up and tell him.Zhang Ji hesitated in his heart, but saw that the man took out Fang Jing's token, so he half believed it.

Just listen to the man say: "Vice General Fang gave Old General Li two words, 'no'."

When Zhang Ji said this, Lu Qiyu noticed that Ye Changfeng's face changed, but it quickly returned to its original state.

"No?" The words made no sense, and Zhang Ji was even more confused, thinking that the man was fooling himself.

But the man said: "Vice General Fang said that only Old General Li can understand this, so you can bring the words."

After saying this, the man left.From the beginning to the end, the coffin was guarded in the middle, and the man didn't even touch the sides.

"He wasn't close to the coffin at all, so he couldn't have had a chance to do it. So I didn't take him seriously."

"Then why did you find it strange again?"

Zhang Ji thought for a while: "There is nothing unreasonable about the matter, but that person feels very awkward to me, and I always feel weird."

"Deputy General Fang did ask Lin Qing to catch up with him to bring the message." Lu Qiyu said, "It was also those two words, but Lin Qing hasn't returned yet."

There was silence in the room, and the whole thing was weird, one thing, two lines; one side was Liu Yiming, and the other side was the capital, as if they had nothing to do with each other, but they collided.Boss Song has never been to the capital, except for Lu Qiyu and the officials who hunted him down a few years ago, he can count on one hand the people in the capital he knows.What the hell is that impostor trying to do?

"If he just wants to draw me out, be smart and don't need to kill Li Lian. Because it will only make things more troublesome and attract the attention of the capital, which is not good for him."

The imperial court and the rivers and lakes seem to be very separated, but in fact they are inextricably linked. The two parties have always followed a boundary line, and whoever crosses it is asking for trouble.

Boss Song shook his head, getting impatient: "It's up to you, Lu Da, to arrest the head of the case. Why are you telling us so much?"

"King Younan attaches great importance to this matter, and he promises that whoever is successful in solving the case will be given grace. Brother Song has a lot of criminal records, and the case is still with me. Is it possible that he will be a wanted criminal for the rest of his life?"

Lu Qiyu looked at Li Yanming with vague eyes, with an inscrutable look: "You don't care, but... are you willing to let Mr. Li hide in your broken house for the rest of your life?"

"What's wrong with him living in my room? You got rid of that look for me." Boss Song blocked it firmly without hesitation.

Li Yanming's sight was blocked by Boss Song's back, and he pushed, "Don't block me!"

Boss Song shrugged, knowing that Li Yanming had given him a lot of face by not saying the last two words "obtrusive", so he reluctantly moved away.Even though he said that, he knew in his heart that Lu Qiyu, the son of a bitch, was a bad kid eight years ago, and today he was sure that he would not refuse, so he came here to drag him into the water and work for him as a coolie!

After finally sending Lu Qiyu away, it was already evening.That shameless guy wanted to spend money, but was kicked out by Boss Song without saying a word.Before leaving, Lu Qiyu lowered his voice and said seriously:

"Believe it or not, that person is going to find you soon."

It is said that after the accident that night, first he fled and hid, and then suffered amnesia due to poison, a series of things followed one after another.Today can be regarded as a day when the two of them are truly and completely stable.

Boss Song thought that Li Yanming must have a lot of questions in his stomach, and now that he has settled down, some questioning must be indispensable.The result was beyond his expectation. Li Yanming didn't ask any more questions. He asked him why he was Liu Yiming, why he went to Ningcheng to become the leader of the local ruffian, why the god arrest and the gangster hooked up together, and what all these things were about. the whole story.

Boss Song had a draft in his heart, and was ready to say something, but Li Yanming didn't mention anything, and felt disappointed.Shyly leaning forward, "Ayan?"

The two of them had already finished their dinner, Li Yanming was listless and seemed very tired, when he saw Boss Song calling him, he responded.

Boss Song originally wanted to talk to him more, but seeing his appearance, he knew that his body hadn't recovered, "Sleepy?"

Li Yanming nodded.

Boss Song smiled, walked over and picked him up. His arms were strong and he was bouncing up and down before he said, "I'll take you back to the room."

Li Yanming muttered: "It's not like I've broken my hands and feet, so it's too much work for such a small way." He yawned and didn't say any more.

Boss Song put him on the bed, pinched the soft flesh on his waist, and went to boil the water contentedly.

He thought, when he was alone before, he only took a shower once in a few months, but now he has a clean one, and even he is embarrassed to be vague about it.However, in the past, Li Yanming would never lie on the bed without taking a shower. Although he still hates dirt, it has changed a lot.In fact, the two had influenced each other subtly and unconsciously.
