The results of the continued investigation made the young ministers of Dali Temple even more embarrassed. This was not the only one who was trafficked. It was found that the buyer stopped by and visited more than four or five families one after another.
Li Shaoqing was extremely embarrassed and unable to support the wall. Mr. Bao came over, patted him on the shoulder, and said as if he was looking at the horizon: "What kind of medicine does this master usually take? It's so magical? I took nearly thirty of them in one breath."
"You shut up." The corner of Li Yan's mouth twitched. The pillar of the country was ruined like this. "Once the historian writes, we will definitely be sent to the wasteland by the emperor."
"Don't worry, if the historian dares to come to Dali Temple, we will close the door and let the dogs out!" Mr. Bao comforted him very loyally.
¡°Are there any dogs in Dali Temple?¡±
"Then let the cat go and scratch it!" This time it was right.
"I think it's more effective to let you go. It's best if you grind your teeth to make them sharper."
"That can't be done, the historian is not good-looking." Master Bao immediately covered his mouth, "What should I do if my teeth are sharpened and hurt the Marquis' tongue?"
Fortunately, Li Yan was not distracted and did not hear the second half of his sentence clearly. He just felt that the pressure in his heart had been relieved a lot, and he began to immerse himself in the case again.
"Any new clues about the gelding?"
"Guan Ming has collected a lot of official reports about geldings being stolen. The earliest time span was the winter of the year before last." Ruan Shaoqing tilted his head, "It was the middle of winter. I collected other information here and there. Professional, can¡¯t think of anything.¡±
"Go to the Ministry of War and ask."
"Go to the Ministry of War to ask about geldings?"
Li Yan hid his face and said, "What can we do now? I hope we can find something out of the investigation and save Lord Guan Ming's face." If there is another incident, he will stay up all night to pack his things and prepare his luggage for the army.
Of course, the prerequisite is that his father, who is the minister, does not get angry and strangle him to death.
The Ministry of War belongs to the martial arts department, so the various ministries are not enthusiastic about visits from civilian officials.
Mr. Bao relied on his bright and beautiful smile and his sharp tongue to spend a lot of time before he asked the horse supervisor.
"I heard that war horses are all geldings."
"My lord, you really know how to joke. If all the war horses are geldings, how will our army's war cavalry be bred in the future?" The horse supervisor's surname is Qian. He is tall and thick, and his words are polite.
The battlefield is ruthless, and the army is afraid that stallions will not obey orders and show favor to mares during battle, so it is natural to use geldings and mares, but it is not absolute.
The two civil servants in Dali Temple nodded frequently, separated by rows as if separated by mountains, and were taught.
"We are here this time to ask about some issues regarding geldings. We don't understand why there are people who steal geldings." Li Yan took out the newspapers collected by Master Guan one by one.
The director glanced at it and shook his head: "Why the gelding was stolen, you investigators can't figure it out, and I certainly can't figure it out either."
"You mean geldings are not particularly useful?" Li Yan's heart twitched, "Think again."
Qian Shuling frowned, his eyes suddenly lit up, he patted his thigh and said with a smile: "Oh, I want to come here! The places where the horses were lost happened to be under the jurisdiction of the Zhuozhou Horse Racing Supervision, which has a radius of thirty miles. Mares are not allowed to come and go at will, so local people generally keep geldings instead of mares."
""
Qian Shuling was talking happily, but when he saw that the two people in front of him looked confused, he said: "Two adults, I'm going to get a map of the horse herding prison stations in various places and show it to you."
After a while, the map was presented.
¡°This is the Zhuozhou Horse Ranch.¡±
Mr. Bao lowered his head and looked for the places where the horses were lost on the map. Sure enough, they were all near the horse ranch.
"Let me see, those horse thieves have nothing to steal, so they have to attack the geldings." Qian Shuling was very proud, acting as if he had repeatedly solved strange cases.
"But why can't there be mares near the pasture?" Mr. Bao held his chin.
"I'm afraid of stealing horse seeds!" Qian Jianling explained again.
It turns out that all stallions are grazed in this horse herding prison. Every spring, other captive mares will be sent to the pasture by the herding horse care supervisor to mate with them. The horse herding supervisor was afraid that thieves would take the opportunity to steal the horse breeds, so there was a law that stipulated that nearby people could not raise mares without permission.
"Are mares and stallions raised in isolation?" Li Yan frowned. It took a lot of effort to drive the mare back and forth for breeding.
Qian Shuling nodded: "Because stallions are in estrus irregularly, and mares are in estrus from March to about July or August. They are only in estrus for five days, with an interval of nearly 20 days. Outside of this period, stallions are in estrus in recent months." It cannot be a mare; therefore, I will definitely breed a stallionQingming, after saying this, he tilted his head, closed his eyes, and fainted.
With a muffled voice, Li Yan picked up the unconscious Mr. Bao and ran out of the pasture in one breath, the wind whimpering in his ears.
"It's definitely not possible to drag it on like this. He stole a glance, but fortunately he didn't see the pursuers, only the horses.
So he gritted his teeth and hid Mr. Bao in the bushes downwind.
Li Yan was almost exhausted. He couldn't escape the horse and rolled all the way to escape.
At this time, horse bells jingled in the night wind, and numerous cavalrymen appeared in front of him, stationed at a distance.
Li Yan looked desperately, but saw flags fluttering under the moon, and a big "Su" character could be vaguely seen. He suddenly realized that he was not a pursuer.
When he hoarsely raised his hands and shouted for help, the stallion behind him had already reached him and raised his front hooves towards him.
"Whoosh!" Several bloody arrows fired, and the crazy stallion fell to the ground.
Li Yan was kneeling in embarrassment.
"Are you okay?" The leader immediately dismounted and slowly approached Li Yan. Under the moonlight, this soldier has a heroic and upright figure, but his face is too colorful, especially the rouge blood mole under the corner of his left eye and his baby face, which makes this man seem to be stuck at an age where it is difficult to distinguish between male and female.
"Help! II am the Young Minister of Dali Temple! Help! We are being chased by thieves from the horse ranch, and I have one more person to save." Li Yan pointed weakly, "It's over there. Can you help? I¡¡"
"No." The leading soldier shook his head.
"What did you say?"
"I am Su Yin. I am subordinate to the general under the throne of Linhuai. The soldiers of the vassal cannot cause trouble casually." Su Yin responded with a very polite expression. In summary, he said: It has nothing to do with him.
Li Yan was stunned on the spot: "Then why did you save me just now?"
"I was in a hurry just now, so I couldn't act on it. And" Su Yin stroked the tiger's sinews and arched his back, "I'm itchy."
"Someone is going to die!" Li Yan roared.
Su Yin waved, smiled and prepared to retreat.
Li Yan was so angry that he started to tremble.
It is better to die than to die romantically. He suddenly had an idea, sternly returned to Su Yin's shoulder, and chewed hard on his mouth.
Su Yin originally thought that Li Yan was only trying to reason with him, but she didn't expect that he would pounce on him and kiss her. His mind froze. By the time he reacted, Li Yan had already fled several feet away: "I just kissed you, come and catch me." ah!"
Su Yin¡¯s accompanying bodyguards were dumbfounded on the spot and stood frozen.
You are dead, I remember your clothes! "Su Yin got on his horse and scolded angrily, his eyes bloodshot, "What are you doing standing there in a daze! Chase me! "(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
