Chapter 44 second quarter

Time: Xu time, two quarters (according to today's time, it should be eight thirty in the evening). Location: Su Causeway. The three of them walked along the Su Causeway, walked across the Wangshan Bridge, and then crossed the Suolan Bridge, and they came to an open flat land, which was in the middle of Lixi Lake and Waixi Lake, about ten feet wide.At this time, a large group of people had gathered on the flat ground, and this large group of people gathered together, but no one made a sound. The silence was suffocating, as if they were waiting for a major event to happen. As soon as the third young master arrived, a person from the crowd hurriedly greeted him.It was Bowen.

The third young master said: "Have you received my letter?" Bao Wen nodded and said, "I have followed my son's instructions, and everything is ready." The third young master nodded and said, "Very good." Bao Wen said: "My lord, when will it start?" The third lord looked up at the sky, but the sky was still covered with dark clouds.The third son said: "The weather is not good, so it is not suitable to move lightly. It is better to wait for the clouds to open and the moon to rise." Bao Wen brought another man in full armor and said, "My lord, this is Sun Sheyi, Sun Dusi, the commander of the Imperial Army."

The third son cupped his hands and said: "Sun Dusi has worked hard, and I am ashamed to bother the imperial army to dispatch in the middle of the night." "No matter where, as long as the murderer can be put to death and the capital can be restored to peace and tranquility, this bit of hard work is nothing." The third young master asked again: "Has everything been arranged?" Sun Dusi said: "Yes." The third young master said: "Have you explained everything to your soldiers?" Sun Dusi said: "Yes, please rest assured, young master."

The third young master said: "Very well, listen to my password in a while, and act according to plan." The third son saw an old man who was being carried over sitting on the grand teacher's chair in the crowd, and knew that it must be Tang Situ, so he walked over and said: "You are so powerful, you must be Prime Minister Tang. Prime Minister Tang is not resting in the prime minister's mansion. Even running up to the Su Causeway in the middle of the night, the sincerity of the country and the family is admirable. However, your old man is highly respected and the pillar of the country. You must take care of your health. There are the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and the Imperial Guard Here, you can go back home to rest in peace, why do you have to do everything yourself. The night wind is cold here, the water mist is heavy, it is not the place for you to stay. "

The third young master's sarcasm on the surface made Tang Situ extremely unhappy.In terms of his seniority, qualifications, and status, no one dared to speak rudely to him.He looked around and asked, "Who is this kid?" Bao Wen bowed his head and replied respectfully: "This is the third son." Tang Si Tui snorted, and said: "You are the third son? I heard that you threatened to catch the real culprit tonight, and you called so many people here?" The third son said: "Exactly." Tang Si He retreated: "But in this wilderness, apart from these trees and lake water, where is there even a single figure? How could the murderer appear here?"

The third son said: "I can't say, I can't say, let's wait and see." Tang Situi said: "The old man came here just to see with his own eyes how capable you are, how dare you boast so much. Don't blame the old man for his ugly words, if you can really catch the murderer, that's all. If you didn't catch the murderer, the old man must face the Holy Spirit in the morning, and then you will be the one to take the blame from the Ministry of Criminal Justice." The third son looked up to the sky and laughed.His smile stopped abruptly again, he walked aside, stood alone, staring at the deep lake, and said nothing.

There was a long period of silence, everyone was in a state of ups and downs, thinking about the same question.Who is the murderer?How could it appear in such a desolate and strange place?Is the murderer one person or several people? The night wind was even more urgent, and everyone lay in ambush in the dark and waited quietly.
