After Su Mu sat down, he belatedly realized that for a former governor of Jingzhao, this courtyard was too simple, even inferior to the houses of some rich and noble families, not onlyIn this way, although the inside and outside were tidy, there was not even a single servant. There was a wooden bucket and wooden scoop next to the flower stand. It seemed that Cen Shu was taking care of the flowers and plants before opening the door.

Is this the lifestyle of retired civil servants in this era?

After sitting down, Cen Shu gave each of them a clean and white teacup, and got up to refill tea for them.

"This tea is made from sweet-scented osmanthus flowers harvested a few months ago and dried in the sun. It's very fragrant. Here, it's the one at the door. It's gone now. It doesn't have any scent." Cen Shu shook his head and introduced his tea.As the hot tea falls into the teacup, the fragrance comes to the face.

Liu Xiaoran and Su Mu looked at each other, and after thanking them, they didn't taste it. Instead, they asked straight to the point: "Lord Cen, we are here today because of an old case seven years ago."

As if he hadn't heard of it, Cen Shu picked up the cup and blew it lightly. After taking a sip, he frowned and said in dissatisfaction: "What's the rush? You little gentlemen, it's just too smooth on weekdays. What's your temper like?, I'm in a hurry, this tea can't wait for us to finish talking, you don't like to taste it, so you have to let the little old man drink a few sips first."

The two who had never encountered such a situation could only put aside these things for the time being, and waited for Cen Shu to drink a few sips in the dense mist, then put down the cup and shook his head helplessly: "It's done,I know you two can't stay still anymore, so let's ask, the case you mentioned seven years ago, alas, my memory is not good, tell me, which one is it?"

Su Mu looked at Cen Shu, who was squinting and relaxed, and was absolutely sure that the old man in front of him definitely knew what their purpose was, but he didn't know if it was because of some unspeakable reason that he hid it and refused to speak directly.Say.

That being the case, he could only explain in a polite manner: "Seven years ago, General He Langhe failed to defend Iwaki and was executed on the spot by the emperor's order, but just two days later, the General's Mansion far away in the capital overnightThe family was suddenly wiped out, the case was handled by the lord at that time, and the case was finally settled by murdering bandits, I wonder if lord Cen remembers it?"

Cen Shu's expression paused, but he immediately returned to normal, and after a hmm, he asked back: "Don't you all know this, and the final result has already been reported to Dali Temple, so why are you asking me?"

"Master Cen didn't find anything strange when he was investigating the case?" Su Mu asked tentatively. Liu Xiaoran said that Cen Shu didn't seem to belong to King Ning's faction, and he had no connection with Taifu Wei.He hoped that Cen Shu could tell them some additional clues, but seeing Cen Shu's current appearance, he couldn't help but doubt whether the other party also helped the real murderer hide the truth back then.

"What's strange—hmm..." Cen Shu put down the teacup, and seemed to really think about it carefully. After a while, he shook his head, "It's really confusing me, it's strange to sayThere must be some places, but...it's too far away, I forgot."

Su Mu was a little confused, and looking at Liu Xiaoran, he obviously didn't expect Cen Shu to be such a kind-hearted person, and he didn't seem to treat them as colleagues at all during the conversation, but he seemed to be teasing them two juniors.

"Master Cen, think again?"

Cen Shu frowned, squinted his eyes and clicked his tongue again. After patting his head, he seemed to suddenly realize: "Oh, you are talking about the fire in He Lang's mansion, ouch, it was really big, bigIn the middle of the night, I saw the fire from a distance, shooting straight into the sky! At the time of Chen, someone came to report to me, saying that the thirty-two people in the house had been burned to death.It’s worth it, so I hurried over, it’s too bad, the fire is still burning, and it’s half the sky red.”

"Hey, if you talk about this case, it's a lot of attention. Even Mr. Zhang, who has never had much contact with the military inspector, has come to ask about it. Hey, this is a very strange thing. When it comes to the case of me, Jing Zhaoyin, it's no matter what.It’s nothing to do with the military inspector.” Cen Shu stroked his beard, his eyes sparkled, and he seemed to be really interested, “Not to mention, those corpses are also pitiful, they were burnt beyond recognition.They were piled up in that hall, especially the young man in the mansion, whose face was almost impossible to see, bloody and charred, hey, when I think about it now, I still feel... tsk tsk, it’s too muchIt's rampant."

Hearing Cen Shu mention the young master in the mansion, Su Mu's heart trembled, and the other party continued to talk on his own: "This is an important case. After all, more than thirty people were killed, but everyone said that the man in the mansionPeople like this are meant to be exiled for three thousand miles, and it’s no different from being dead. Let me not worry too much about my old bones. When I hear it, it makes sense. Anyway, these people are destinedwhat……"

Liu Xiaoran frowned. She obviously didn't agree with this predestined statement. Cen Shu's saying that was equivalent to admitting that he hadn't found out the truth of the case at all, and just came to a hasty conclusion for the purpose of closing the case.Before he could speak, Cen Shu looked at him.

"Speaking of which, this was personally approved by your Dali Temple Minister, Mr. Pei. Why don't you ask Mr. Pei instead of me, an idler?"

Liu Xiaoran was taken aback when she heard the words. What Cen Shu said should be Mr. Pei Ming, the Minister of Dali Temple back then, but as early as four years ago, Pei Ming had died of illness. Although Cen Shu had resigned before that, after all, he lived inWithin Capital City, it shouldn't be ignorant of this, but now that he deliberately mentions it, does it mean something?

Sure enough, the next moment, Cen Shu nodded, as if asking and answering himself.

"Well, yes, you don't ask him, because dead people don't know how to speak." Cen Shu stood up, stretched himself comfortably, and exercised his muscles and bones, "The same, I knowToo much and you'll be dead."

"Let's go, I don't remember anything else, it's useless to ask again, if you want to check, go find someone else."

Cen Shu issued the order to evict the guest, and the two also knew that there was no chance of changing his attitude, so they had no choice but to get up and leave. When they walked out the door, Cen Shu murmured suddenly.

"Marquis Anding, Su Yi...Su Yi, oh..."

Su Mu turned around, and the old head shook his head regretfully: "A few years ago, I also told your father this, but it's a pity—"

He looked at Su Mu with a helpless expression.

"You have to listen to it."

Before Su Mu could respond, the door was closed.

Along the way, both of them were thinking carefully about what Cen Shu said. It seemed that the man didn't say anything, but every sentence seemed to have his intentions.

"Since the fire had already started up in the middle of the night, why did someone report the incident at Chen's hour? Even if it was because no one saw it in the middle of the night, the patrols shouldn't be so slow in responding." Su Mu suppressed himself and couldn't help it.I have to think about the few words Cen Shu said about Su Yi, and forced my attention back to the previous clue, "And when he mentioned Mo Shu, no, when he mentioned He Jingxu, it always made people feelIt seems a little deliberate, does he know something?"

Liu Xiaoran also nodded, what Cen Shu said seemed to be some far-fetched memories, but after careful thought, there were strange things everywhere: "And that Mr. Zhang of the military inspector, since it seems to have nothing to do with this case,Why are you in such a hurry to ask..."

Mentioning this, Su Mu was also a little puzzled. He turned to Liu Xiaoran and asked, "Army supervisor, is it used by the court to make ordnance?"

Liu Xiaoran nodded, and explained: "People are not allowed to manufacture large-scale weapons without authorization, so the armor and weapons used on the battlefield are all supervised by the Military Weapons Supervision and issued to the soldiers. Thinking about it this way, it can't be regarded as useless.relation."

Su Mu was nodding his head when suddenly, what Jiang Yu said came to his mind.

"The battle armor distributed a few days before the start of the battle can hardly withstand the attack of any weapon, and is extremely fragile. Some people even have the time to go into battle, and the battle armor is already loose. Not only that, the tanks used in the battle are also made of internal weapons.The rotten dead wood in the middle is simply powerless to fight against Japanese pirates."

If it wasn't a coincidence, could it be that there is some secret in the military inspector?

He immediately told Liu Xiaoran what he had said. He didn't take it to heart before because he felt that items such as battle armor should be kept by the soldiers themselves. Even if there were any problems, it should have nothing to do with other people.These things were issued before the battle, so if someone tampered with them, it would be true Gods can't know, ghosts can't see.

After hearing this, Liu Xiaoran also became thoughtful. If the two are connected, the military inspector is indeed very suspicious, but all they have guessed based on Jiang Yu and Cen Shu's words. If they want to confirm it, they still need toHard evidence.

"Military Warfare Supervision has always been an important place. That Mr. Zhang should be Mr. Zhang Hengyu, and I don't know what he is like." Liu Xiaoran murmured, "But the place where Military Weaponry Supervision makes weapons is not in Capital City.If there is a chance to go in and take a look, maybe we can find some people who witnessed it at that time and ask about the situation.”

Su Mu took this very seriously: "The weapons come from their hands, and they should be the most clear about whether there is any problem."

So the question is, how can the two of them go in and find out?

The next day, as soon as Su Mu finished his breakfast, someone came to report from outside the door, saying that an adult from Dali Temple had come. He had thought that it was Liu Xiaoran who had come to discuss with him about the military weapons supervision case, but he didn't want to come inIt was Qi Hao who I hadn't seen for a long time.

"Little Marquis, it's been a long time." Qi Hao still looked romantic, and greeted him with a folding fan.

"Master Qi, it's really been a long time." Su Mu also smiled and cupped his hands. Just as he was about to invite someone to sit down, the latter opened his folding fan and fanned it in the serious winter day. Shi ShiranHe said calmly: "Little Marquis, I won't sit down anymore. I have ordered Master Liu to pick you up and go to the Military Weapons Supervision together."

Student Qi Hao came here to refresh his face for a short time!
