Chapter 638(1/2)
Walking out of Xingqing Palace, Cao Nan finally let out a long sigh.
This is a difficult problem. Now that the ball is played to the emperor, I don’t have to worry about it.
However, the happy mood did not last long.
Just returned to Jingzhao Mansion.
Yan Song, who was in charge of guarding the prison, hurried over.
"Report to the Prime Minister of the Cao Mansion, Jiao Zhou and Jiao Qi, who committed suicide by taking poison in prison."
What.
Cao Nan squirted with a sip of tea and sprayed Yan Song's face.
"You, say it again!"
Yan Song wiped the liquid from his face and said word by word, "Brothers of Jiao, commit suicide for fear of crime."
Cao Nan put down the teacup and hurriedly followed Yan Song to the backyard cell.
There were already many prisoners in front of the Jiao brothers' cell.
Seeing Cao Nan coming, the coroner Lu Fei quickly walked up to meet him.
"Lu Fei, what's going on?"
"Self-taking poison."
Lu Fei's answer is concise.
Cao Nan nodded and scratched his head again. He had just tried and had not been convicted yet, so why are he so anxious to die?
"What's wrong with the two of them commit suicide?"
"Jiao Zhou's wife once came to visit the prison. Shortly after leaving, the two of them committed suicide by taking poison."
Yan Song replied in a low voice.
Cao Nan was so angry that he slapped him in the face.
"How can you visit casually if you have not been convicted yet?"
Yan Song covered his face, feeling a little aggrieved.
"We can't afford to offend Jia Cheng, a Hundred Riders," said Mr. Jia.
"Forget it, contact the family to collect the body!"
Cao Nan waved his hand and left the prison.
Return to your study.
The more Cao Nan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
The front foot Baiqisi sent the prisoner and the back foot brought people to visit the prison.
Then, the prisoner committed suicide by taking poison.
Looking back on the whole thing, it was my initial feeling, as if something was wrong.
Thinking of this, Cao Nan couldn't sit still.
He hurried to the warehouse of Jingzhao Mansion, found the Jiao brothers' case, and carefully kicked it into his arms.
According to regulations, all files must be placed in the warehouse and taken care of by someone in case of review at any time.
Cao Nan did this but was suspected of violating the rules.
Back in my study, I carefully checked the case.
After confirming that there was nothing missing, he carefully hid the case on his bookshelf.
The back of several large books.

Pengcheng thousands of miles away.
Shen Buyi was calm on the surface, but he was a little anxious on the inside.
Yuan Chong, the guy, started to be a turtle, and he had already withdrawn all the power in Pengcheng.
If this continues, it is really hard to say who will die first.
He called Ding Laosan and went out to relax with him.
The two of them circled around Pengcheng.
Finally, Shen Buyi held the war horse and smiled on his face.
"Master, why are you laughing?"
Ding Laosan couldn't help but ask.
After a whole day, I finally saw Shen Buyi's smile.
"Ding Laosan, do you think the battle against Yuan Chong and gentlemen is OK?"
Ding Laosan was a little confused when asked Shen Buyi's question, but soon he came to his senses.
This shows that Shen Buyi may have to use some non-gentleman means.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Young Master, since ancient times, military tactics have always been about winning a surprise. As long as you can win a battle, any method is a good method."
After laughing, Ding Laosan added, "It is his own to marry his wife home."
If you win a battle, the credit is yours.”
The words are rough but not rough.
If you win a battle, the credit is yours.
Chen Buyi repeated this sentence and finally made up his mind.
"Ding Laosan, look, this river comes from the west and flows into Pengcheng."
Ding Laosan looked at Chen Buyi and nodded gently.
"Young Master, this river is called Lai River, which is the source of water for the two cities of Penglai."
After saying that, Ding Laosan couldn't help but lit up.
"Young Master, you want to..." Chen Buyi nodded, "Yes, no water.
Cut off the water source in the city, and Pengcheng will be destroyed without attacking."
Ding Laosan nodded.
“High, really high.”
Chen Buyi pointed to the distance and said, "The terrain is low and we dig the embankment and release water, which can flow into the sea from the depression."
Ding Laosan immediately became excited, "Young Master, I'll go back and call someone now."
But a few feet wide Lai River, hundreds of people rushed up and quickly dug a big hole.
After the water surface fell, Ding Laosan ordered everyone to dig soil and move stones, completely blocking the waterway leading to Pengcheng.
Broken water.
It immediately caused a burst of panic in Pengcheng.
Yuan Chong was also very anxious. Although he was not very glorious and nice, he was very practical and Shen Buyi had no choice but to do anything to him.
But if there is no water, the city will be in chaos. At that time, many things will not be controlled by you.
At this time, Yuan Huan spoke.
"Dad, don't worry, I have a solution."
"Oh, say it."
Yuan Chong's words were quite surprised.
"Dad, look."
Yuan Huan pointed to the distance.
"Look, although the Lai River is not easily blocked by sinking, the sea water can flow backwards when the tide is high.
We can also drink it after steaming it."
