The first work of the imperial prison

When Ye Baiting was hugged by Qiu Yiqing, he was still a little dazed. He subconsciously hugged Qiu Yiqing's neck. He was afraid of heights and falling, but at the same time, he was worried that Qiu Yiqing would really dare to carry him out like this, and called the people outside. people see...

There is no shame in being in a relationship, he is not afraid of letting others know, but this kind of greasy and crooked behavior can be seen by others, the society is dead!

Then, he heard Qiu Yiqing's low laugh.That kind of cautious and successful, happy and proud smile.

Ye Baiting: ...

"Hate, Doubt, Youth!"

This dog man is teasing him!Since it is necessary for official business, what do you say 'I am not used to it without you'?He was rejected, but he said it was official business, and hugged him shamelessly, as if punishing him for playing petty temper and not cooperating with work, so he had to 'clean up', he had to be hugged and scared... …

Deliberately going around the corner, is it possible that it's just for such a hug!

Just for a hug?

Ye Baiting narrowed his eyes: "You still don't let go?"

Qiu Yiqing pursed her lips and didn't let go: "You didn't agree."

You pretend to be something you know each other well?

Ye Baiting stared at Qiu Yiqing: "If you don't let him go, you and I will definitely not have one today."

Qiu Yiqing thought for a while: "The request should be dismissed, so it's better not to apply for Jiang."

Ye Baiting never expected that when he came back from a romantic relationship with a scoundrel, did Beizhen Fusi know that the head commander was such a shameless person!

"If you don't let go, I'll bite." No matter how I think about it, I can't beat them. It seems that the only weapon on my body is the sharper 'teeth'.

Qiu Yiqing still looked at him solemnly, as if discussing some serious and important issue: "Where do you like? Hands, shoulders, face, or..."

He doesn't need to say the next words, Ye Baiting has already seen it from the point of his gaze, lips... This dog man really dares to think!

The young master was not very good at dealing with this kind of scene, he was a little bit at a loss, and had to have some time to turn his head, but he moved, and unconsciously touched a certain part of the opponent's body... The hatred Qing froze, and in the next moment, he Putting it down, he straightened his sleeves solemnly: "It's time to prepare for a stick of incense, let's go."

Ye Baiting narrowed his eyes, this is...

"The clothes are fine, you don't need to change."

Before he could think clearly, Qiu Yiqing quickly checked his whole body with his eyes, frowned slightly, took a jade buckle from his waist, and put it on him: "Today...it's too late, I'll choose it for you later. .”

The business is important. For the first work, the desire for career is much stronger than the desire for love. Ye Baiting temporarily gave up thinking about the current scene, and quickly checked himself. It was indeed okay. He turned around and went out first: "Then let's go."

Qiu Yiqing followed: "It's a long way, ride with me?"

Ye Baiting snorted: "No, I have a horse."

Qiu Suiqing: ...

The commander felt a little regretful, he shouldn't have been ashamed just now.

Not only did Ye Baiting reject Qiu Yiqing, but he didn't slow down. He rode so fast that when he dismounted, his thighs felt a little sore.

Chou Yiqing didn't sigh, nor was she complacent, but, as always, with that serious and serious face, she said something that no one else could hear: "It's more comfortable to follow me."

Ye Baiting: ...

He felt like he got off to a bad start last night?He was honestly being himself, and Qiu Xunqing was also being honest about himself. He never expected that this kind of hypocrisy was not obvious, and once it was flirty, it couldn't be compared!

For some reason, a very special desire to win was suddenly aroused in my heart. He and Qiu Yiqingcai were not in a relationship, they were engaged in a power war without gunpowder, and whoever bowed his head would lose!

How could the young master bow his head, the young master has high fighting spirit and will never be defeated!

You are waiting, let's fight again when we are free next time!Whoever loses is the dog!

Having already passed through the gate hung with white cloth and entered the courtyard, Ye Baiting shook his head, shook out the messy things in his head, concentrated his attention, and carefully observed the surrounding environment.

The yard is very large, very clean and well-organized. Even if it is against the wall, there are no sundries in the corners. There are not many plants, but everything that is there is neatly trimmed. The whole atmosphere gives people the feeling...serious, positive, and efficient Very tall.

From entering the gate to near the study, and then to the mourning hall, the overall feeling has not changed.The behavior style of the general owner has a great influence on the place of residence...

Ye Baiting pondered: "This Prince Mu..."

Qiu Xunqing: "What's wrong?"

"Do you love work?" Maybe my thoughts are a bit one-sided, after all, the amount of information is not much, but Ye Baiting just has this feeling, "Is he really good at the court, and has he done a good job?"

Chou Yiqing nodded: "His great-grandmother was a princess. In his generation, there is very little light that can be enjoyed. The royal family in the court can't take care of it, let alone a person with a foreign surname? All family businesses today, including this The prince of the county is all earned by himself. He has been a local official for many years, loves the people like a son, and has excellent political achievements. He is the talent the emperor needs. Staying in Beijing to be promoted, who knows that an accident happened before the day came..."

Ye Baiting noticed the word 'accident': "How did he die?"

Qiu Yiqing didn't answer, because it was too late, when he saw the commander of Jin Yiwei coming over, the filial son in filial clothes and hat had already stood in front of the mourning hall, his eyes were slightly red: "The commander took time to come, and my father must be honored to know, unfilial son Mu An thanked—"

"Mr. Mu's condolences." Qiu Yi Qingxu gave a hand, "The deceased is a great one, and I dare not disturb them. I only came here to offer a stick of fragrance to comfort the souls of the dead."

Mu An wiped his eyes: "Commander, please—"

Ye Baiting felt that something was wrong since he entered the Prince's Mansion. Qiu Xunqing said that he came here for business, and he must have had a dead body to be examined when he was taken with him. Jin Yiwei was on the side, and they didn't fence it up to prevent outsiders from entering. There was only one corpse here...

It seems that this 'post-mortem' went through an abnormal process, and it may not necessarily be a murder case.

Followed Qiu Xunqing to the tablet of the deceased, and offered his respects with the incense. Ye Baiting smelled something different. His nose may not be sensitive to other smells, but he was familiar with corpses and scars. Is it a... like burnt skin, or slightly mushy fat?

Above the mourning hall, the coffin behind the memorial tablet was not covered. After a small burial, the relatives changed the shroud, tidied up the appearance, and lay quietly in the coffin. Those who have a particularly close relationship will be reluctant to come to the coffin to express their condolences.

Just in front of someone was passing by, supporting the coffin, crying with red eyes, it seemed that Ye Baiting and Qiu Yiqing turned around and walked away so heartless and indifferent, the two just pushed the boat along the way and walked up the steps.

The man in the coffin still looks very young, at most forty years old, with a broad forehead, slightly raised brows on the right side of his face, and pursed lips. , It was a burn, and the burn was still severe. From the eyes down to the chin, there were almost bones visible, and down, half of the neck was bloody and bloody. It was impossible to tell which was where with the naked eye. I can't see it anymore because it's covered by clothes.

However, Ye Baiting was the victim, and it is very clear that this is a kind of extensive burn on the body surface. The deceased has the characteristics, and the cause is mostly accompanied by the explosion of foreign objects. When a large amount of heat is released, a high temperature zone will form around the explosion point, which is very easy to burn. produce this burn.

However, compared with the explosion, the scope of the deceased’s burns was much smaller. The right half of his face was fine, and the left half of his face went down to his chest... According to the burn marks that increased sequentially, Ye Baiting guessed that his chest injury must be more severe. It is the source of exposure to a large amount of heat release. As we all know, the human heart is in the left chest, and such injuries to vital parts, and insufficient medical conditions, can easily lead to death.

This kind of situation is not like a large-scale explosion injury, but more like a precise delivery, the damage range is very limited, what kind of thing... has such a 'restraint' power?

Ye Baiting instantly thought of the Thunderbolt. The previous explosion caused turmoil in the entire capital, but it was different. The explosion intensity and range of the Thunderbolt were much larger. King Mu's scar was obvious, and it should be a burn caused at close range. But if it was close range, according to the lethality of the thunderbolt, the right side of the deceased should not be fine. If the left chest was very close to the explosion point, then his entire upper body would be blown away, and the body could not be so complete.

No wonder Qiu Xunqing wanted to come and take a look, this matter is indeed worthy of attention.

Ye Baiting turned to Qiu Yiqing, slightly parted his lips, and made a silent lip-synch: "...New weapon?"

Qiu Yiqing squeezed his hand and didn't say anything, but her eyes were very clear - see clearly?

Ye Baiting nodded, and the two went down the steps and walked outside.

Beside the door of the mourning hall, there was a woman in sackcloth with a hairpin of white flowers, in her thirties, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and one could guess from her clothes and age that she was probably the widow of the deceased.

"Mr. Fang," Qiu Yiqing's voice fell into Ye Baiting's ear, slightly lowered, "Mujun Wang got his wife, the husband and wife are deeply in love, and the relationship has always been very good. Childbirth, now one son and one daughter in the family are all from the Fang family."

"Relying on you to take care of me all these years... yes... my husband has been diligent since he took office, eats the king's salary, takes care of the king's worries, and never dares to neglect one point. All political achievements are hard to come by... it's hard I was able to be transferred to the capital, and I thought that I would be able to settle down from now on, but who would have encountered such a thing..."

Her husband died, Fang's grief is certain, after a few words of reassurance, she did not forget to socialize, and pointed the way to several wives: "You go this way, the incense ash is hot on your hands, so please be careful. I have to rely on you... Mrs. Sun, please go this way, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to your family's small banquet, but we are all in the capital, and there will be opportunities in the future, my husband's official duties..."

As a widow, Fang is very busy, busy dealing with her husband's affairs, busy sorting out her husband's network, and can't take care of too many other things, including her son.

Of course, her son doesn't need her to take care of her. Mu An seems to be very mature in dealing with others. A young man of seventeen or eighteen years old is already able to run a family in this era. Fang Shi is taking care of the female guests. All the men came to him.

"...Thank you for asking. With an elder like you watching over me, this junior will definitely not go wrong in the future...I don't know much about my father. If there is a need for uncles, this junior will definitely do my best...But The white cloth outside the courtyard? Let you all see a joke. This time, when I return to Beijing, my father has already said that he should live here for a long time and will not leave again. The inside and outside of the house must be tidied up. Glazed tiles and glazed windows, unexpectedly there was an accident... These things are not suitable after all, and there is no way to remove them, so we can only find white cloth to cover them hastily, and it is estimated that they will not be used in the past two years... How about this uncle? I hate it, I haven't found someone to send it to you when I look back?"

Everyone deeply felt that the child was considerate in handling things, and they all persuaded him to mourn, sighed a few times about the pity, and went to the funeral together to burn incense.

There are a few young people around Mu An to help guide the guests and entertain them. Some people can tell their identities at a glance, wearing filial hats and filial clothes, they should be members of the Mu family, and they are the same generation as Mu An. It's different, although the clothes are plain and suitable for the occasion, but there is no white hanging on the body, it should be someone with a foreign surname, Mu An's friend?

Not only Fang and Mu An were busy, but also Ye Baiting and Qiu Yiqing were not quiet. Because of the status of Jin Yiwei's commander, those who knew each other would come to say hello and form a good relationship. The two walked for a long time before they found a A quiet tea table.

Seeing that there was no one around, Ye Baiting asked in a low voice: "This doesn't look like the report received by Beizhen Fusi, do you suspect...there is something wrong with the death of Prince Mu?"

Qiu Xingqing stretched out the pot to pour tea: "What kind of injury does it look like?"

"With burns, no big shock waves can be seen, but the instantaneous huge heat release is obvious."

"What do you suspect?"

"I doubt it?" Ye Baiting could tell from Qiu Yiqing's expression that he probably thought of Leihuobo, "but it shouldn't be."

Qiu Yiqing: "The power is a bit weaker."

So he has already seen it, calling himself here just to confirm?

Ye Baiting was a little worried: "But recently... what new things have appeared in the capital?"

Qiu Yiqing's head: "Jinyiwei is in charge of the guards, and the imperial guards are responsible for monitoring the capital. Many small things start from the people, and sometimes they are really small things. There is no need to go to war. Some seem trivial, but in fact there are many hidden dangers. Recently, the following have frequently been reported. , someone throws 'gadgets' on the street, they look like firecrackers, but they don't look like firecrackers, they are much more powerful than firecrackers, they can hurt people, but no one was killed, even so, I went to a hospital for injuries , It will cost a lot of money, the common people complain, and the workshop can't catch anyone..."

When he said this, Ye Baiting understood, this matter is serious, it's not serious, after all, it didn't make much noise, it's not serious... If you don't pay attention, once it becomes serious, wouldn't it be too late to pay attention?

So Prince Mu is the victim of this incident?

Ye Baiting asked again: "Prince Mu...how did something happen?"

Qiu Yiqing: "Unexpectedly. Five days ago, Prince Mu participated in a small banquet. During the banquet, the atmosphere was very good, and there was hardly any doubt. On the way back, I don't know what he remembered, and suddenly got out of the car , said he wanted to buy two snacks to go home, but before he reached the shop, a "small ball" fell from the sky, it was just right, it landed in his arms, and exploded in the next moment, he fainted in the street, bleeding profusely, Everyone in the dim sum shop was startled. No one could see what the small ball was, and it might not be a small ball. The servants brought me home, I have invited the doctor and the imperial physician, I carried it for a few days, but I still can't carry it... just now you and I are here today."

Ye Baiting: "Who threw the ball, has anyone seen it?"

"No," Qiu Yiqing shook his head, "There have been such incidents in the streets and alleys before, and the people in the town are paying attention. When something happened to King Mu, the servants in the mansion are running around looking for him. He is not low-status. Jing Zhaoyin I didn’t take it seriously when I received the report, and I searched everywhere, but there was no clue.”

Ye Baiting put his fingertips on the table, pondered for a moment: "Then this person is a bit powerful... Has Jin Yiwei moved?"

Qiu Yiqing still shook his head: "Although Jinyiwei has the responsibility to monitor the capital, it is generally under the supervision of Jing Zhaoyin and the five city soldiers and horses. No major incidents have occurred, and no one has reported the crime. Jinyiwei hastily intervened. Blame other people for their ineffectiveness, and they will be held accountable.”

Ye Baiting thought about it and understood.Although Beizhen Fusi is not afraid of anything, only others are afraid of them, but the administration of the officialdom process has its own system. Overstepping is offending and declaring war. According to the rules, there is no need for Jin Yiwei to interfere with this before shelf.

And... it's not completely ignored, is it?Isn't Qiu Xunqing himself paying attention?

"So you brought me here... just in case?"

If the troublemaker can't be caught, and the incident becomes a big mess, and they have no choice but to return it to Beizhen Fusi, they won't be blinded and don't know anything.

"No," Qiu Xingqing said, "I can tell this kind of injury at a glance, and I don't need to do it first."

Ye Baiting didn't understand: "Huh?"

Then what did you ask me to do?

Qiu Xingqing lowered her eyes, and touched the back of Xiao Zuo's hand.

Ye Baiting almost exploded, immediately retracted his hand, his eyes widened: "You—"

"Holding it," Qiu Guqing, the old god, calmly handed over a cup of hot tea, "Hands are cold."

Ye Baiting narrowed his eyes, when did this man tell the truth, and when was he molesting him!

Speaking of cold hands...

His eyes fell involuntarily, and he saw Qiu Yiqing's hands. These hands were very big. They were practiced with weapons every day, and they had not been carefully maintained at all. There were thin calluses on the tiger's mouth and finger pulp, which were a bit rough, but he knew the shape of these hands. What kind of touch is it, how powerful it is, and what kind of temperature it is...

Seeing him watching for a long time, Qiu Xunqing directly handed over his hand: "Here."

Ye Baiting: "Huh?"

"Didn't you want to hold it?" Qiu Xunqing moved his hand forward again, "Here."

Of course Ye Baiting wanted to refuse, but his hand was already gripped, and the hot tea he just held was useless.

"I'm not cold..." He tried to shake off the opponent's hand.

Qiu Yiqing's strength, if he doesn't want to, who can get rid of it?

His eyes were focused and deep: "You are cold."

People around were coming and going in a hurry, no one paid attention to this remote corner, and would not see the hands of two people holding each other on the side of the stone table.

Ye Baiting couldn't resist Qiu Yiqing, felt his own heartbeat, and felt a little exciting, so this is dating?

It's a pity that falling in love with an extraordinary person can't be ordinary. Before I could fully feel the excitement, I was interrupted by someone. A guard in Jin Yi quickly walked over from the side and saluted Qiu Suqing.

"speak."

"Report to Commander, the street outside...is in chaos!"

There was no need for him to say more, Qiu Xunqing knew what was going on, and pulled Ye Baiting up: "We have to go."

Ye Baiting also guessed: "Are you... a small ball that people stare at?"

"Ah."

In order to save time, the two of them walked out, and the Jin Yiwei who reported the letter quickly opened his mouth and made it clear in a few words. It really is chaos on the street again, and it is still the same thing that looked like a prank before, with something like a small ball Throwing it on the street caused a small-scale explosion. This time, there were a lot of them. It seemed that they were thrown randomly. Some were in the corner, and no one passed by. up...

Qiu Yiqing put his fingers between his lips, and blew a long whistle. Xuan Guang, the black horse of the divine steed, came in an instant, and ran with an unparalleled demeanor, and didn't stop when passing by.

It didn't need to stop, Qiu Yiqing grabbed Ye Baiting's waist with his big hand, tapped his toes, and took advantage of the momentum to bring the man onto the horse. The horse galloped so fast that the Jin Yiwei behind couldn't keep up.

"It's too late, I'll hurry up."

Ye Baiting: ...

This is an unexpected situation, so there is no need to remind?

Horse riding all the way, passing the long street, the shadows of the houses and trees retreating quickly, the two rode together, intimate, but although the time and place are favorable, no one can take advantage of it, and there is no way to feel more, because Xuanguang ran very fast, and it didn't take long. To the street where the accident occurred.

Looking from a distance, I can see the flames on the street, but they are not big. It seems that it can be extinguished at any time, and it doesn't involve too many places. The smoke is different. I don't know what caused the small-scale explosion. , the sound is not loud, and the influence is limited, but the gunpowder smoke is very thick, and the people on the street are not particularly afraid. Everyone has something on their head or an umbrella, while avoiding, while fighting the fire, the loudest voice is cursing, and...cough .

The Jinyiwei squad that arrived ahead of schedule was already carrying out their missions, separating out several groups of people, those who put out the fire, those who evacuated the crowd...

There are still things like small balls falling from a high place. I can’t tell where they came from for a while. Whether someone is hiding in the dark and operating them, but these small things don’t seem to be very powerful and can’t hurt people. Once they come into close contact, luck is bad Well, it is still possible to cause life-threatening, just like King Mu in the coffin today.

"You are here, don't rush forward..."

Chou Yiqing only had time to explain, and with all his strength, he sent Ye Baiting off the horse, stepped on the stirrup, flew up from the horse, leaped into the depths of the street, watched all directions, listened to all directions, and moved in various ways in the air Jumping, or using hands or feet, kicking the small ball from the sky to the bottom of the wall, where no one is there——

"boom!"

If it blows up, it doesn't matter if it doesn't hurt anyone.

Ye Baiting watched as he dragged a strong man out of the danger zone, kicked another man's ass, kicked him out, lifted an old man's shoulders, led him to a safe place, and picked up a two or three-year-old boy. Return the baby to the arms of the anxious mother who wanted to rush over.

"I am the commander of Jinyiwei, Qiu Yiqing," Qiu Yiqing gestured to the soldiers to give orders while he was busy, "the scene is not very dangerous, don't panic, everyone listens to the order of the envoy, which direction do you want to evacuate from?" Just go in any direction, don't make trouble without authorization, don't retreat and coerce others, if anyone doesn't obey the order, take them all back to Beizhen Fusi!"

As soon as the people were quiet, they immediately had a backbone, they did not dare to run around, and followed Jin Yiwei's orders.

Not to mention the Lei Huo bomb incident last time, I still remember it deeply. Everyone has a lot of trust in Jin Yiwei, just say where is Beizhen Fusi?They don't want to go to those with torture chambers and jails!

So soon, the small round bottles from high places were still falling, and the explosions and fires were still happening bit by bit, but the people were no longer in a hurry, and they separated in different directions, and evacuated in a tense and orderly manner, which was more chaotic than before. It is much better to look like a pot of porridge, and there is no possibility of a stampede.

Ye Baiting looked at the tall figure in the smoke from a distance. This man was decisive and informal. He was obviously very anxious and nervous. He used all the tricks to kick people's buttocks. He was still very gentle towards the elderly and children, just like... The same way he put down his horse.

Even though he was in such a hurry, so fast, he didn't feel any shock. Wherever he was strangled, touched, or his feet were unstable, Qiu Xunqing always treated him with care, as if he was a glazed doll, Afraid to touch a little.
