Daxianguan

Chapter 54 Conflict
Chu Xian was full of aura, unknowingly, he showed a little bit of the majesty that he had been an official for many years, but even this little bit was enough to deter the few patrolling soldiers and make them dare not step forward.

After all, whether the official talisman is real or not can be seen at a glance. There is no doubt that the young man in front of him is definitely a genuine official.

Chu Xian didn't waste time, because he already knew that this kind of secret investigation would be discovered soon. After reporting his family name, he estimated that the corresponding officials would arrive soon.

It's a good time to check out some more things.

After watching the murder scene, Chu Xian asked a soldier directly where Wang Yushi's bedroom and study were.

The soldier didn't dare to hide anything, so he pointed in the direction, and Chu Xian led Qi Chengxiang and walked over directly.

The Yushi Mansion is not big, and the bedroom and study are built next to each other, but at the moment the doors are closed tightly with the seal of the government.

But in Chu Xian's eyes, these seals are nothing, go up and take them off, and directly open the door to enter the dormitory.The room was simply furnished, clean and tidy. Chu Xian glanced around, reached out and wiped the edge of the bed, stained with dust, and lifted the lampshade, Chu Xian looked at the candlesticks inside.

"Go, go to the study."

Chu Xian immediately went to the study, also unsealed the seal, pushed the door open and entered.

The study is equally tidy.

The pens, ink, papers and inkstones on the table are neat, the books in the bookcase behind are neatly arranged, and the calligraphy and paintings on the wall are also neatly arranged, but at this moment Chu Xian frowned.

Although the calligraphy and paintings on the wall looked neat, there was one place that was empty. If I arranged it myself, it would definitely not be an empty space. Although it was harmless, but with the habit of visiting with so many books in the bookshelf From the looks of it, it's impossible for the master here to tolerate this kind of thing.

Going forward to take a closer look, there is a slight color difference on that piece of wall. It should be that a word or a painting was originally hung here, and then it was taken off.

So, was it before or after Wang Yushi was killed?

At this moment, there was a noise outside, and there was a rush of footsteps, and then someone shouted: "Who told you to let people in? A seal has been posted here, and no one is allowed to enter."

While talking, an official walked in.

This official must be about 40 to [-] years old, not tall, with dark skin, and his face is not good at the moment. He first reprimanded the soldiers on duty, then looked at Chu Xian, and said suspiciously: "I heard that you are the inspector Writer, where is the official talisman, let me take a look."

Chu Xian showed the fish-shaped official talisman, and the official knew it was not a fake at a glance, and immediately put on a smile: "It is really the inspector who wrote the pen, Master Chu, please don't blame him, it is true that someone once pretended to be the official of the Holy Dynasty Therefore, the city magistrate has issued repeated orders, and any foreign officials need to check their identities."

Chu Xian also understood the official affairs, and said with a smile: "The accusation should be, what should I call this lord?"

"Oh, I am Wang Zan, the East Gate Commander of Fengcheng." The official named Wang Zan also showed his own fish-shaped official talisman, and Chu Xian knew that the other party was from the ninth rank.

From the ninth rank, it is one level lower than his own ninth rank, and the gate order is actually an official position in charge of guarding the city gates. A literati can do it, and a warrior can also do it. Chu Xian looked at Wang Zan's complexion Dark and tyrannical, he is obviously a warrior.

After accepting the official talisman, the king praised: "Master Chu is also here to inform you, no wonder I was nervous."

The implication is that Chu Xian came to Fengcheng secretly, and even sneaked into Yushi's mansion secretly, without even saying hello, and not knowing the rules.

What kind of person is Chu Xian? How could he care about this? He laughed at the moment: "The inspection department has always done things like this. It is not aimed at Fengcheng. Please understand this, Mr. Wang."

Wang Zan was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that it's okay, seeing that Chu Xian is not very old, he didn't expect to speak so sophisticatedly and impeccably.At that moment, he made a haha, and then said: "Master Chu, even if the inspector investigates the case, he has to follow the rules. I have notified it, and soon the city will send an official to contact you. Master Chu, how about shall we come out first?"

Wang Zan gave up his position and pointed to the door.

Chu Xian smiled, turned around and glanced at the study room before walking out.When Wang Zan saw Chu Xian coming out, he immediately asked the soldiers to close the door of the study and guard the door.

At this time, another official came rushing from outside. The official had a big belly and was out of breath. As soon as Wang Zan saw the person, he rushed to meet him.

"Master Tan, you're here." Wang Zan said with a smile on his face, but the official scolded: "If you can't even guard the Imperial Palace, you are a waste."

Apparently, it was because Chu Xian and Qi Chengxiang sneaked into the Yushi Mansion that Wang Zan was scolded by the superior, and the latter dared not speak back with a bitter face.

Looking at Mr. Tan again, after walking over, he looked Chu Xian up and down, and saw the official amulet on Chu Xian's waist, but he didn't care, because he was from the eighth-rank general Guan Cheng, and his official position is logically higher than that of Chu Xian. All the nine ranks are one level higher, so they just frowned and said, "Where is Mr. Yushi, the inspector?"

Apparently, Mr. Tan didn't bother with Chu Xian's inspection and writing.

Chu Xian already knew the opponent's official position from the opponent's official talisman, so he just shook his head and said, "Master Cui is not here."

Mr. Tan immediately sneered: "The censor is not here, you dare to come to investigate the case as a little writer, I'm afraid you don't have the qualifications."

Obviously, Master Tan didn't take Chu Xian seriously at all.

Chu Xian was neither humble nor overbearing: "I follow the order of Lord Cui to investigate the case first, and there is a warrant from the censor. If the Lord doesn't believe it, you can read it first."

After speaking, he took out a warrant and handed it over.

Naturally, this warrant was written by Cui Huanzhi himself, and it has the official seal of the inspector censor, so it is genuine.

At this moment, Mr. Tan's face changed, he stared at Chu Xian, and then said: "Even if there is a warrant from the censor, you must not investigate the case without authorization, especially since the censor's mansion is the first scene where the case occurred. What kind of evidence, can you afford it by writing alone?"

Just put a hat on.

At this time, Wang Zan hurriedly came over to smooth things over: "Master Tan, I think this Master Chu has just arrived and doesn't know the situation in our Fengcheng, and this Master Chu has already investigated it just now, so I will reopen this place. Seal it well, and it will definitely not destroy anything."

"Hmph!" Mr. Tan obviously didn't intend to just let it go, and sneered, "It's a joke to find out anything written by a little Jiupin who doesn't even have full hair. I don't think there is anyone in the inspection department!"

"Presumptuous!" Qi Chengxiang took a step forward, half of the long knife drawn from his waist, he is Chu Xian's guard, if someone insults him as a superior officer, of course we can't just sit idly by, Qi Chengxiang is a guard, not an official, so he doesn't care about the other party's rank .

Mr. Tan was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps back. Several soldiers around him immediately drew their swords and stepped forward to confront Qi Chengxiang.

Conflict is imminent.
