The fact that Mr. Mo was suspected of murder and extermination of his family, and was ordered by the King of Qin to assist in the investigation, quickly spread to the ears of the entire Xianyang high-ranking nobles.

Although there are many high-ranking officials and nobles in the Qin State who have enmity with Lord Mo, after hearing the news, the first reaction of most people was not happiness, but suspicion.

Murder and extermination?

Is this a matter worthy enough for Mr. Mo to assist in the investigation?

For that guy, wouldn't things like this already be commonplace and routine?

What?

Tingwei Jin Youjun took his fate as a sign and died in front of Lord Mo.

oh!

Having said that, we understand it!

above.

This is probably the true reaction shown by the vast majority of high-ranking officials and nobles after hearing the news for the first time.

······

And on the other side.

Having just learned that Mr. Mo would be banned, Heiyu conveyed the news back to Hanzhong through flying birds.

"Shengping-kun is suspected of murder and is now banned?"

When Six Finger Black Man and Fu Nian heard the news, their increasingly rounded faces could not help but reveal a bit of astonishment.

The Mo family has always been responsible for helping the world and rescuing the people. During this time, because of worries about the snow disaster, the Six-fingered Black Man has been staying in Hanzhong [Mo Mansion]. The purpose is that if Mr. Mo encounters trouble in disaster relief, he can help in time.

The result was completely unexpected.

The victims were fine, but Mr. Mo was in trouble.

"how so?"

"Brother Mo Jun is okay! No, I have to go to Xianyang to find him."

"Ling'er, don't be impulsive. You just need help in the investigation now. Do you remember what I taught you? The more critical this moment is, the more we must stay calm."

Jian Jiuyuan said in a deep voice.

Since the news of Mr. Mo's suspension was spread back to Hanzhong, all the core members of Mr. Mo's command returned to Hanzhong [Mo Mansion] as soon as possible.

Xiong Da, Xiong Da, Yao Gui's three masters and disciples, Jian Jiuyuan, Jian Ling'er, Yue Nu, Zhu Yeqing, Jiu Jianchi... more than a dozen people gathered together.

Although everyone was panicked for a while when they first received the news.

But many of the people under Mo Jun's command have seen the big world, so after only a brief panic, they quickly regained their composure and began to discuss countermeasures.

"Who did you kill this time? Your actions were a little too rough and left such a big flaw. By the way, who did you kill this time?"

Suddenly, Zhuye Qing asked something coldly.

After hearing this, the others also looked at Xiong Da with some curiosity. Facing everyone's gaze, Xiong Da also had black lines on his forehead.

"Do you have any misunderstanding about your character? This incident was really not caused by your actions."

"What?"

As Xiong Da finished speaking, everyone present widened their eyes, looking even more surprised than others.

Even Fu Nian and Six-fingered Black Man had a look of disbelief in their eyes when they heard what Xiong Da said.

"So, has your Excellency been framed by someone this time?"

"According to what was said in the letter sent by Kuroyu, this time it should be the influence of Lord Changping."

"With Lord Shengping's current reputation, even if Lord Changping wants to frame him, it probably won't be an easy task!" Fu Nian frowned and thought for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Xiong Dadao.

Xiong Da glanced at Fu Nian, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He nodded and said, "Mr. Fu Nian is right. Your Excellency is always cautious, and ordinary frame-ups are of course useless."

"But this time it is different, because the deceased this time is none other than the important minister of the Qin State, Tingwei "Jin Youjun", who had a small conflict with the Lord before."

"And not only was the whole Jin family wiped out this time, but Jin Youjun himself was killed in the Zhangtai Palace in front of the King of Qin and all the civil and military officials. Moreover, before he died, what Jin Youjun shouted was the Lord's

name."

"It is precisely because of Jin Youjun's testimony before his death that your Excellency became the biggest suspect in this case."

After hearing Xiong Da tell the whole story of the incident, the expressions of the others changed one after another, and they realized the seriousness of the matter.

The identity of the deceased is important.

And before he died, he personally identified the "murderer".

Based on these two points alone, if it were a country with lax laws, or if the "murderer" this time was not Mr. Mo, the case might have been closed by now.

"In this case, the case now has all the witnesses, and only the physical evidence is needed to conclude the case." The six-fingered black man looked solemnly and thought slowly.

Xiong Da nodded and said: "Yes, and this is what we are worried about. Now that your Excellency is confined in Xianyang [Mo Mansion], if someone takes advantage of this period to tamper with the physical evidence, Your Excellency will not be allowed to do anything in the court."

I’m afraid the government will be completely passive.”

"So we have to do two things first: first, find out the truth of the case, and second, prevent people from Chang Pingjun's lineage from doing anything secretly."

"Both of these things require someone to go to Hedong County."

"In the Mo Mansion, we need senior Jian Jiuyuan and senior Yao Gui to be in charge. Now that the master is away, we must leave someone to sit in the rear to prevent the young people from taking advantage of the chaos and plotting."

"And Xiong Er and I can't leave during this period, because the 'free trading market' established by your Excellency is not yet stable, especially now that the news of your suspension has spread. In recent days, many people have come to Hanzhong.

The merchants have started to make some small moves, so Xiong Er and I need to take charge here."

"Therefore, I can only leave it to you three to investigate the matter in Hedong."

At the end of the conversation, General Xiong looked at Zhuyeqing, Jiujianchi, and Yuenv.

Zhuyeqing, Jiujianchi, and Yuenv nodded and said: "We understand."

Xiong Da threw a token to the three of them and said: "After going to Hedong, if you encounter trouble, you can go to the [Xiong Chumo Chamber of Commerce] branch over there to take action."

After Xiong Da slowly arranged things in an orderly manner, the Six-fingered Black Man continued: "In this case, I will also give you a helping hand. I will inform the Mohist disciples in Hedong County to help you find out the truth about this case as soon as possible.

."

As soon as the Six-fingered Black Man finished speaking, he saw Fu Nian continuing: "I am somewhat of a humble Confucian. Later, Fu Nian wrote a letter asking the Confucian disciples in Hedong to come and lend a helping hand to Lord Sheng Ping."

Xiong Da was stunned, as if he didn't expect that the two people in front of him were actually willing to take the initiative to help.

"Thank you both for your help."

"It doesn't matter. Lord Shengping's merits are immeasurable. Now that he has been framed and framed by a villain, even though we are people in the world, we should help him. What's more, if Lord Shengping is really killed because of this, it will be a loss for the entire world."

······

······

Xianyang.

【Mofu】.

Just when the outside world was in a turmoil and making a fuss over Mr. Mo's suspension and investigation.

At this moment, inside [Mo Mansion], it is a quiet time.

Mr. Mo was sitting by the lotus pond in the back garden of Xianyang [Mo Mansion], holding a fishing rod in his hand, his face was calm, and there was no hint of the urgency of being in danger.

Maybe it was because he was in a good mood today that the fish bit the hook much more frequently. After only two hours of fishing today, there were already three small white stripes in the fish basket.

"Sir, there is news from Hanzhong."

A burst of black feathers fell, and Black Feather's figure suddenly appeared behind Mr. Mo.

Mr. Mo is now banned from [Mo Mansion]. In principle, he cannot come into contact with anyone. This is mainly to prevent the suspect from colluding with others before the case is heard.

But that's only in principle.

In fact, when Ying Zheng failed to imprison Mo Jun in accordance with the laws of the Qin Dynasty, he had already acquiesced in the fact that he could contact the outside world.

Mr. Mo worked hard to climb from a homeless man to such a high position. Why? Isn’t it just for the privilege?

"what news?"

"It came from Xiong Da, saying that during this period of time in the 'free trading market' in Hanzhong, many merchants began to trade secretly without registering it with the [Commercial Supervision Department]."

"Ha! Sure enough, a bunch of dogs can't change their habit of eating shit!"

Mo Jun chuckled and shook his head.

When merchants in Hanzhong's "Free Trade Market" conduct transactions, they need to take the initiative to register with the [Commercial Supervision Department] to facilitate the payment of commercial taxes.

When Mr. Mo was here before, these people were quite honest.

But now that Mr. Mo has just shown a hint of 'degeneration', this group of merchants started making small moves without hesitation.

"I asked Xiong Da to record all the names of these people first, and then I will deal with them all after I return."

"yes!"

Black Feather responded.
