Dafeng Guardian 大奉打更人 Episode 17

When Zhu Jinluo heard that Xu Qian'an was released from prison again, he went to Wei Yuan angrily to question him. Wei Yuan reminded him that this was the emperor's will and as a night watchman he should naturally obey the emperor's orders with all his strength. With these words, Zhu Jinluo naturally had nothing to say.

After Xu Qian'an was released from prison, Wei Yuan asked him to lead Chunfengtang and Zhenxietang to investigate the case, and appointed him as the chief judge of the case. After reading the file, Xu Qian'an's first question to Wei Yuan was whether there was something suppressed or sealed under Sangpo. The national sword is of great significance to Sangpo, but now it is intact. Perhaps there is something else inside Sangpo.

As soon as Xu Qian'an opened his mouth, he touched the real crux of the matter. Wei Yuan naturally knew the secret, but the matter was of great importance. He reminded Xu Qian'an: The emperor asked him to investigate who blew up the mountain and the temple, and he didn't need to worry about anything else.

The three teams of Jin Juntang, Chunfengtang and Zhenxietang have all assembled. Xu Qian'an has assigned reconnaissance tasks to each team in an orderly manner, and everyone is ready to go.

When Xu Qian'an arrived at Sangpo, the lake was very calm. At first, Xu Qian'an heard a sound from the bottom of the lake. In order to find out what was going on, Xu Qian'an jumped into Sangpo himself to observe the situation at the bottom of the river. There were three stone piles and many iron chains at the bottom of the river. In the center was a huge stele, which was obviously a formation. Xu Qian'an carefully identified the person on the stele, jumped out of the water, and described the words he saw on the stele to the people. Li Yuchun, Li Yuchun felt a chill down his spine. It seemed that this matter was also related to the Imperial Observatory.

Xu Qiyan searched for clues along the way and suddenly found that there was something wrong with the Ministry of Justice. He immediately took people to the Ministry of Justice, but the people in the Ministry of Justice looked down on them. The guards at the door did not let them get close. Xu Qiyan saw that they were obstructing the investigation and time was running out, so he started his own investigation on the spot. One-slash mode. All the guards from the Ministry of Justice in front of him were knocked down, and Xu Qian'an broke into the Ministry of Justice directly. The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice was furious at the time, but the eunuch in the palace happened to be there. He introduced to the ministers that although Xu Qian'an was a junior judge, the emperor ordered him to be the presiding judge of the case.

The Ministry of Justice was also troubled by this case. The Yongzhen Mountain River Temple was blown up, and a large amount of gunpowder needed to be placed at the bottom of the river. The most important raw material of gunpowder is saltpeter, so it was linked to the recent case of Meizu wounding in Dahuangshan. Naturally, it becomes much clearer. Xu Qiyan asked the Minister of Justice who had the ability to hide so much explosives. The Minister of Justice replied that of course it would take the Minister of Works and two other ministers, but using the Minister of Works would cause a big commotion, and this clue would be difficult to implement. Xu Qiyan asked one question and then The Minister of Justice woke up.

On their way back, Caiwei and Xu Qian'an were wondering who the suspect was. They thought of the previous case in Jingzhao Prefecture and found that Zhou Chixiong was the most suspicious. They immediately took people to find Zhou Chixiong, but the suspect had already been prepared. It was said that Zhou Chixiong had requested a long vacation to visit his relatives a few days ago, but he was still a step too late. Xu Qian'an regretted that the clue he had just found was lost.

Xu Qian'an had seen the miserable bodies of the guards who were guarding the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple that night. There were a total of 312 people, all of whom had their blood and essence sucked dry. At first glance, they were people with great cultivation and abilities. Li Yuchun just sighed that it seemed that they This investigation was much more difficult than expected. The case was complicated to begin with, and the person behind it was not easy to deal with.

At night, Xu Xinnian and Xu Qi'an sat on the roof to discuss the next countermeasures. The emperor asked Xu Qi'an to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence. Xu Xinnian felt that the case was difficult to handle, so he might as well take this opportunity to escape. Xu Xinnian also suggested that he escape to Yunzhou, because there were many bandits there and the mountains were high. The emperor is far away, and the people in the palace cannot find out where he is. Xu Xinnian's unintentional words reminded Xu Qian'an, and Xu Qian'an felt that Zhou Chixiong might have escaped to Yunzhou.

Xu Pingzhi finally came back. He had lost a lot of weight and was limping. He knew that Xu Pingzhi had dared to break into the Tiger Hall to save Xu Qi'an. It seemed that he had risked his life. Xu Pingzhi was shocked to see Xu Qi'an standing there intact. In front of him, I was so moved that I cried.

Xu Qian'an took Caiwei to the prison to prepare for another trial of the Taikang County Magistrate. Accompanying them was Zhang Shen, the Grand Tutor of Yunlu Academy. Zhang Shen was very confident in his ability to read the qi, but after casting the spell, there was no movement. Xu Qian'an walked to the Taikang County Magistrate's room and saw the sound of the sound. When County Magistrate Kang looked in front of him, he found that he had already died.
