The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 341 Rushing to Wannian County

Song Huifu's face was serious, "My lord, if it is true as stated in the book, then the poisoning in Wannian County is not an accident!"

Yang Qingyuan picked up a strain of mushroom, "According to the book, this mushroom is called by the local people of Jiaozhou the white bacillus Gu. Although it is a fungus, its toxicity is not inferior to the Gu poison lost in the Shiwan Dashan. .”

"However, this mushroom has extremely strict requirements on the breeding environment, and the air must be humid and warm!"

When it came to this point, all three people present understood!
"Could it be that the climate in Wannian County has reached this specific condition!"

Di Zhiyuan was not involved in the poisoning case in Wannian County, so he didn't know much about him.

Father Song Hui shook his head, "Zhiyuan, when I went to Wannian County that day, the climate was extremely dry, so it has nothing to do with the word wet."

"That's right, the Wenhua Palace received a memorial from Wannian County today. The forest in Wannian County caused a mountain fire because of lightning igniting dead trees! It can also be inferred from common sense that if you want to start a mountain fire, it must be the air." Dry, piled up with dead wood. In such an environment, white bacilli cannot grow naturally at all."

Although Yang Qingyuan is a liberal arts student, he still has basic common sense.

"So it is very likely that these mushrooms were deliberately spread in Wannian County!?" Di Zhiyuan was already thinking about who was being killed for such a large-scale poisoning case.

"Mr. Song?! Is there any connection between those poisoned families?!"

After Song Hui's father nodded, he shook his head again, "After all, it is a small county, and there are several families in it who are related. But they are only distant relatives, and they don't have much in common."

"Then why did the poisoner do this!?" Di Zhiyuan couldn't understand the poisoner's purpose.

"No, it shouldn't be someone deliberately poisoning. I asked the vendors at the market that day, and then captured the vendors who were selling mushrooms that day. They were all nearby mountain farmers, but suddenly they picked a large number of mushrooms on the mountain. The small white bacilli, now go to the market in the county to sell."

Di Zhiyuan nodded when he heard the words, "This is strange! If so, how can the poisoner control the mushroom so that someone can eat it accurately?!"

Ji Yaohua, who was silent all the time, said, "Could it be that there is no accurate target at all, just to poison and kill people. As for who is killed in the end, it doesn't matter to the poisoner, as long as they kill people?!"

"This possibility is unlikely!"

Yang Qingyuan, who had been listening to Song Huifu and Di Zhiyuan's discussion but never spoke, denied it.

"This white bacilli grows in Jiaozhou. Do you think it takes so much effort to kill people without order?! And it has to be transported all the way to preserve its activity and toxicity, which will definitely cost a lot of money. If It’s just to kill people immediately, just to poison the well directly, why go to such trouble to kill a few common people, scholars, and small officials?”

Yang Qingyuan was right, if he killed a high-ranking court official, royal family and nobles, it would be understandable to act like this, but if he did this for the sake of killing a few civilians, it would be really unworthy and logically illogical!
Among the current deceased, the one with the highest status is nothing more than a county school teacher, a low-ranking ninth-rank official.

Behind these dead, there must be something hidden! !

"The only thing that can be confirmed at present is that the large-scale poisoning case in Wannian County was deliberately done by someone, and it is by no means accidental."

"It seems that we have to go to Wannian County! More than fifty lives have been lost, but we can't just say that they are gone!" Yang Qingyuan made a decision.

"My lord, I'll go!" Father Song Hui was annoyed and ashamed that he had been concealed from the case for many years!
"Let me go with you! Wannian County is not far from the gods, and even if something happens, you can come back immediately!" Yang Qingyuan decided to go together, and then ordered, "Miss Yao, Zhiyuan, after we leave, the temple I leave the business to you!"

Di Zhiyuan is the prime minister of Dali Temple and can act as an agent for the daily government affairs of Dali Temple. Ji Yaohua is the first batch of people to join Dali Temple, and is also the leader of the female arresters, who can take charge of the field staff of Dali Temple.

The combination of the two is enough to temporarily control Dali Temple.

After arranging everything, Yang Qingyuan stood up. As the young minister of Dali Temple, he left the capital without reporting. If he was to be impeached by his political opponents, he had to apply to the cabinet and go to Wannian County to investigate the case himself.

In the cabinet at this time, all the great scholars were gone, only the guards remained, so Yang Qingyuan went directly to the residence of the seat teacher Qian Muqian.

"What?! The poisoning incident in Wannian County wasn't an accident?!"

Although this incident was not a big one, after all, it was brought into the case of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple, and more than ten people died. As a cabinet scholar of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was normal for Qian Muqian to know about it.

At that time, the memorial to form the task force also passed through the hands of Qian Muqian.

"Yes! I accidentally found a book called "Miscellaneous Notes in the Mountains of Jiaozhou" in the Shanhai Pavilion of the Imperial Academy, and found some clues in it."

"Is this case so important?! It's worth a visit by you, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple?!"

The Shaoqing of Dali Temple, the fourth rank, is equivalent to the deputy secretary of the Political and Legal Wei of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the vice president of the Supreme Court.

"Dozens of people's lives are still in the important place of Gyeonggi! You can't let the gangsters do whatever they want! Besides, the people behind the scenes are so generous, it must not be just to kill a few people!"

Qian Muqian didn't ask too much, he was not good at criminal investigation, but he thought his disciple had a sense of propriety.

"That's the case, be more careful, I will handle it for you here in the cabinet and in His Majesty's office!"

"Thank you, teacher!"

After notifying Qian Muqian, Yang Qingyuan can leave the capital with peace of mind.

Now Yang Qingyuan's influence in the court has reached a high point, and his backing is even more unbelievable.

Qian Muqian, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, is Yang Qingyuan's teacher. The friendship between teachers and students is one of the most reliable relationships in the officialdom of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Yu Yanyi, a scholar of the Hall of Martial Arts, and Yang Qingyuan have a good relationship. The two sides are friends who have forgotten their years. They chatted happily and discussed the border military system. They are very compatible, and their relationship is even better than that between Qian Muqian and Yang Qingyuan.

Sun Fuji, the chief scholar of Wenhuadian University, is Yang Qingyuan's immediate boss, who teaches Yang Qingyuan government affairs and appreciates him very much.

The four senior scholars currently in charge, except Li Hongyi, the senior scholar of Jianji Temple, all have a good personal relationship with Yang Qingyuan.

And Emperor Zhou trusted Yang Qingyuan even more, especially the golden generation of Yong'an 13 years, who was regarded as the future pillar of the imperial court.

Under such circumstances, Yang Qingyuan has political opponents in the court, but he is not afraid of them, and there is little resistance in doing things.

After getting permission from the cabinet, Yang Qingyuan set off with the people from Dali Temple the next day.

Accompanying him were Chahao chief Song Huifu, guest Qing Liu Wangshu, Li Mochou who had served in Dali Temple for three years without salary, and twenty Dali Temple field staff accompanied him.

Wannian County is only two hundred miles away from Shendu.

After traveling for half a day, a group of people encountered heavy rain and thunder.

However, everyone in Dali Temple is a martial arts practitioner, and there is also a course of running in the rain in the Dali Temple Criminal Law Academy, and they did not stop because of the heavy rain.

The group finally arrived at Wannian County at night.

"Who is in the city!? There is a curfew at this moment, you are not allowed to open the door!!"

Wannian County is located in the Gyeonggi area, surrounded by four guards. There has been no military incident for 30 years, and even banditry has not been seen. Suddenly at night, dozens of cavalry, the school lieutenant in charge of city defense, can't help but feel a little nervous.

Yang Qingyuan took out a token from his pocket, threw it on the city wall, and landed it precisely in the captain's hands.

Suddenly something fell into his hand, the captain was taken aback, before he had time to look carefully, he heard someone shouting from below.

"Dali Temple is ordered to handle the case! Open the city gate!"

With the help of the torchlight, the captain saw clearly what was in his hand, which was a black token.

The whole body is made of black jade, and on the front, there is a light golden "Li" character in the middle of the token, which looks like it is used by noble people!
However, the captain of the city defense army in a small county has never seen such a high-level token, let alone him, even the county magistrate of Wannian County may not have seen it.

Not to mention Da Zhou, even later generations often forged blue-headed documents and certificates, posing as high-ranking public officials to bluff and deceive.

Just as the captain was hesitating, another object was thrown.

Coincidentally, the captain had seen this item once.

This is the official certificate of Dali Temple Chancellor Song Huifu. The school captain saw it when Song Huifu came to Wannian County to investigate the county school poisoning case last time, and he was deeply impressed.

Although there are many high-ranking officials who come and go to Wannian County, most of them just rest at the posthouse in Wannian County for one night before leaving. Only Song Huifu, the prime minister of Dali Temple, had some exchanges with the school lieutenant, so he remembered this clear.

Only a few days later, unexpectedly, the captain saw it again.

"Quickly open the city gate! Below is Lord Song!"

Following the captain's order, the city gate of Wannian County opened with a "boom", and Yang Qingyuan immediately led his people into the city, leaving a headhunter to hand over to the captain of the city defense. ''

"My lord, shall we go to the post house to rest first?!"

A field worker in black from Dali Temple asked immediately, on his black field uniform, there were two red stripes embroidered with one long and one short!
This person is none other than Li Gang, the police chief of Dali Temple, the policeman who almost offended Yang Qingyuan and Li Xunhuan on the street, is now the police chief of Dali Temple.

Yang Qingyuan was dressed in a black uniform, with four red stripes embroidered on the cuffs, and immediately said, "Don't take a rest, go to the Wannian County Liufanmen branch first!"
-
Today's Six Doors has almost returned to become the anti-theft department of Dali Temple. Although it is directly under the Ministry of Criminal Justice in name, the arresters of Six Doors ignore the group of elders in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. It is more suitable for the six doors.

The point is, Yang Qingyuan gave a lot!
The official of the Ministry of Punishment only knows how to command the six doors, and does not feed the horse, but wants the horse to run faster.

But Yang Qingyuan was different. From the beginning of the water transportation, he always thought about the six doors. If he had a bite of meat in Dali Temple, he would definitely have a drink of soup from the six doors!
He also helped Liu Dufeng, the leader of the Six Doors, be conferred the title of nobleman, officially entering the top ranks of the Great Zhou,
In this case, do we need to think about who to be the boss? !
The six-door policeman is just uneducated, not stupid! !
