Tang Maode walked towards the location of the inn with the hard work of his confidants in the evening, thinking that the officials sent by the emperor to investigate him would soon be silenced, and he was very happy.

Who knew that after arriving at the inn, they found that there was no one there at all, not even a ghost shadow.

Anxious Tang Maode didn't realize that he was cheated. He just thought that his subordinates were not good enough to inquire about news, and he only asked for useless news. For example, the news he got earlier was that the official came to Yangjiang by boat As a result, he stared at the passing ships for more than half a month, but found nothing, and because he was at sea at the time, Tang Ling was kidnapped by those tricksters.

Thinking of Tang Ling, Tang Maode suddenly remembered that the news of the inn was told to him by Tang Ling. At that time, Tang Ling looked like he made an oath, and he believed it.

.Thinking about it carefully now, with Tang Ling's ability, how could he really find out the whereabouts of the official, because he was too anxious to silence the official at that time, and without investigating beforehand, he hurriedly called his confidants to meet, and left the city overnight. White ran such a trip.

Tang Maode, who knew that he ran for nothing, could only return with his confidants in vain. After he returned to the city, the sky gradually brightened. Thinking of these confidants, he ran with him in vain and found nothing. , I couldn't let them be distracted from myself, so I said to them: "The sky is already bright, you can go home with me and have a breakfast!"

When these people heard it, they were also very happy. After all, the breakfast in the Governor's Mansion must be a hundred times better than that in the naval barracks, and they immediately replied, "Yes, my lord."

A group of people rode their horses and quickly walked towards the Governor's Mansion.

.As usual, Tang Maode rode his horse to the gate of the Governor's Mansion. When several servants at the gate saw them coming back, they hurriedly stepped forward to help them lead the horses.

At this time, Tang Maode was thinking about going to Tang Ling after breakfast and asking him where he got his previous news, so he didn't find any abnormality in the housekeepers.

These housekeepers were full of anxiety and unease. They wanted to remind Tang Maode, but they thought that if they reminded the other party, they would not be able to atone for their sins, and they might be beheaded at that time, so they swallowed the words.

Entering the mansion, Tang Maode walked a few steps with his subordinates, and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

It's too quiet, his governor's mansion is very big, and there are many servants coming and going, it can't be so quiet!

In an instant, Tang Maode made a defensive gesture.

.When his subordinates saw him like this, they also subconsciously made a defensive gesture and looked around vigilantly.

"Tuktuktuk..." With the sound of footsteps, many sailors rushed out from all directions, and they surrounded Tang Maode and others.

Seeing these people wearing navy uniforms, the generals immediately said angrily, "Who gave you the courage to surround us?"

"It's me." Xiao Zimo walked out from behind the navy and stood in front.

These generals glanced at Xiao Zimo and found that they had never seen each other, and questioned, "Who are you? Why mobilize our people?"

"Your people?" Xiao Zimo chuckled, turned to look at Tang Maode, and said, "Governor Tang, do you think they are your people too?"

.Tang Maode has already reacted at this time. No matter how stupid he is, he knows who this person is in front of him. After all, he went out of the city last night to kill the other party, but he didn't expect to be calculated by the other party.

"Master Xiao has a better plan, and Tang admires it!" Tang Maode gritted his teeth.

"Where, Xiao Mou can't compare to Lord Tang. He became the governor of Yangjiang Province, colluded with water bandits, mutilated the people, and wanted to be a local emperor forever." Xiao Zimo sarcastically said.

"Mr. Xiao, please don't talk nonsense if there is no evidence. Now you are dispatching the navy in the name of the emperor. It's impossible to justify it. I will definitely read you a book." Tang Maode retorted.

"Let's do it, when you get to the capital, join me as you want!" Xiao Zimo waved his hand indifferently, and said, "Arrest them and put them in jail."

"Yes.".Hundreds of sailors immediately surrounded Tang Maode and others.

Seeing this situation, Tang Maode's confidants and others became anxious, turned to look at him, and shouted, "Lord Governor!"

Tang Maode thought about it in his heart, just because they were no match for these navy, if they resisted forcefully, they might be charged with other crimes by Xiao Zimo. Someone pleads guilty for him.

So, Tang Maode put down the weapon in his hand.

Seeing him like this, the confidants who followed him also put down the weapons in their hands and captured them.

Xiao Zimo breathed a sigh of relief when Tang Maode was also imprisoned in the prison. On this trip to Yangjiang Province, he finally completed half of the task that the emperor entrusted to him.

.But then various things also increased, because he arrested a lot of officials in Yangjiang Province, and many affairs piled up for a while, and he had to wait for him to deal with it, which made him busy all day long. There is no time to return to Haining Village.

Seeing that he hadn't gone back, Wu's father and others asked Wu Bai the reason, if Xiao Zimo's family came here.

Now the biggest danger is gone, Wu Bai has nothing to hide, and honestly told Wu Father and the others the identity of Xiao Zimo.

"What? Xiao Zimo is an official?" Father Wu said in shock.

Wu Bai nodded.

"He came to Yangjiang Province to investigate the murder of the eldest princess' concubine? Now he has arrested the Governor of the Navy?" Father Wu was shocked. These news seemed like a dream to him. How could he listen? So unreal.

.Brother Wu was also beside him. He was not interested in the news of the princesses' concubines. He was interested in another thing that Wu Bai said just now.

"Brother Bai, you just said that Hai Shi has recovered his memory. His name is Yan Shaoyuan? Has he been arrested now?"

Wu Bai nodded again.

The father and son were talking when they heard someone knocking on the door.

Wu Bai went out and opened the courtyard door. Outside the door was the man who was rescued by Wu Bai and the others.

."Brother Bai, thank you and Brother Xiao for saving me. Uncle Hai has already told me that this is Haining Village. I also know why Hai Shi was driven out of your village. I'm here to apologize and say goodbye to you. I'm sorry. , I listened to Hai Shi's nonsense before, and followed him to say some bad things about Haining Village. By the way, my injury has healed a lot. I plan to go to the city to see my family and brothers in Zhaizi, and then give They pick up the body."

"You don't have to go and collect them..." Before Wu Bai could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the other party.

"Brother Bai, you don't have to persuade me, but don't worry, I will not act impulsively, I will not go to Hai Shi, I will live well, for them... live together... "..." The man choked up as he spoke.

."No, that's not what I meant, what I meant was that they won't be beheaded, and now they've been released." Wu Bai smiled helplessly.

"Ah?" "Really?" The man's eyes were red, his eyes full of disbelief.

"It's true, since your injury is almost healed, will you drive the carriage?" Wu Bai asked.

"Yes, I will." The man nodded hurriedly.

"Well, wait for me first, and I'll take the carriage out." Wu Bai said.

When Wu Bai turned around, Father Wu asked, "Brother Bai, who is that?"

"That's a mountain that Brother Xiao and I rescued on the road two days ago..Shanmin, his family was arrested by the prefect, and he was going to be beheaded today, but the prefect has already been arrested by the elder brother Xiao, so his family was released, and I plan to go to the city with him. Here, take a look at Brother Xiao by the way. "Wu Bai explained.

"That's right, then you can go. By the way, Brother Bai, did Xiao Zimo say when he will marry you?" Father Wu said with some concern.

Knowing that Father Wu was worried that Xiao Zimo would never return, Wu Bai said with relief: "Don't worry, Father, Brother Xiao will come to marry me when he is done with these things."

"That's good." Father Wu nodded.

At the gate of the prefectural government office in the city of Yangjiang Province, Wu Bai got off the carriage and took the man into the government office.

He found a yamen and asked, "Where is the bandit who was caught before?"

.That yamen was Xiao Zimo's new recruit. Just now, when he saw Lord Xiao's entourage, he was very respectful after seeing Wu Bai, so he didn't dare to take Qiao to Wu Bai, and replied honestly: "Those mountain bandits They were all released by Master Xiao just now, and they have been walking for a while. They went to the right when they left the mansion, and they should be able to catch up if they go after them now."

The man next to Wu Bai heard what the yamen said, quickly thanked the other party and Wu Bai, and then quickly chased out.

After he left, Wu Bai asked the yamen, "Where is Mr. Xiao now?"

"Master Xiao is now handling official business at the county court." The court servant replied.

"Brother Bai." Xiao Zimo's voice sounded from behind Wu Bai. He just heard Xiao Da say that Wu Bai is coming, and immediately put the pen in his hand and came out to look for Wu Bai.

"Brother Xiao.Wu Bai shouted, then looked at Xiao Zimo and laughed.

"Brother Bai, what are you laughing at?" Xiao Zimo asked.

"Brother Xiao, did you not wash your face, the ink on your face is still there, haha, like a matchmaker mole, haha..."

Xiao Zimo reached out and touched his face, but it turned his face even more flowery, which made Wu Bai smile even happier. He rolled his eyes, quickly brought his face to Wu Bai's face, and stuck it.

Wu Bai only felt the warmth on his face leaving, and then saw Xiao Zimo laughing at him in turn, he was blinded for a moment, and quickly realized that Xiao Zimo had touched the ink on his face to his face .

Knowing that he had also become a face, Wu Bai couldn't care about laughing at Xiao Zimo, and the two of them went to wash their faces together after making trouble.

.After washing his face, Xiao Zimo felt the freshness on his face, and said, "Fortunately, Brother Bai, you come to see me, otherwise I'm going to get moldy. I have arrested a lot of officials in Yangjiang Province, their affairs. Most of it fell on me. I've been so busy these two days that I don't have time to take care of myself, and you're here just to give me an excuse to take a break from my busy schedule."

"Brother Xiao, have you asked the imperial court to send officials to take up those positions as soon as possible?" Wu Bai said distressedly.

"Yes, I have already sorted out the criminal evidence of those people yesterday, and wrote a document, and asked Xiao San and the others to send me to the capital. Now I just need to complete the backlog of the officials during this period of time, and wait until the court sends them. When new people take over, they can take those officials back to Beijing to return to their lives." Xiao Zimo replied.

"Well." Wu Bai nodded, indicating that he understood.

."When I return to Beijing to recover, I will come to marry you." Xiao Zimo said suddenly.

"it is good."
