I'm a detective for Dongchang

Chapter 128 Hong County

Chapter 128 Hong County
Hong County
On an open grassland next to the official road, a row of men in official uniforms stood neatly, and behind them there were many soldiers lined up on both sides. In a place like Hong County, such a welcoming formation is extremely rare. Yes, so, many ordinary people visiting friends from the countryside stopped to watch not far away, curious about what happened.

"See, even Chang Yao is here, it must be someone from the palace who wants to pass us."

Where there are crowds, chatter is definitely indispensable. When someone starts, everyone will chirp with each other.

"I was thinking, it must be something about the Jia family. After all, the whole family died overnight, and the court must send someone to investigate."

"Second Yang, you should be more careful. Let Sun Xiaocheng and Chang Yao hear that your steamed stuffed bun shop doesn't want to open."

Yang Laoer's back felt cold, and he rolled his eyes: "I said that our county has a small number of people, but I didn't say anything else."

The man next to him rolled his eyes, and the middle-aged woman beside him said, "I heard that Jia Dafu's beautiful Mrs. Lu hasn't been found yet."

"In my opinion, it was his restless daughter-in-law who seduced the man, and then the two of them partnered to kill someone and run away!"

After saying this, it was like a chatterbox was opened, and the people around couldn't help nodding their heads in agreement. Everyone in Hong County knew about the beautiful and beautiful ladies of the Jia family, especially Mrs. Lu Jinzhi.Once Jia Dafu took his wives and concubines to play, and chartered the largest three-story boat in Hong County. On that day, besides hugging left and right, he also made everyone in Hong County see his wife clearly. His beauty attracted the men to stop for a long time, envious of them.

"That's a total of 31 people. If two people can be killed, how capable is that?"

The one named Yang Laoer spoke quickly, and the corners of his eyes were still squinting: "Look at you, it must be me, Yang Laoer, when it comes to Lingtong."

"Okay, second child, I'll bring a jug of good wine later, and serve your whole drawer of steamed buns. Come on, don't be a fool."

"Success, it's my Dacheng brother who can think of me." Younger Yang became beaming when he heard the wine, "I heard that before Jia Dafu died, he wrote the word 'Lu' with blood."

"Lu?" Many people were as confused as Dacheng.

"Well, this Lu character is an official in the capital. He has collected a lot of money from rich people, and he has also taken a lot from Jia Dafu to do things for him. Jia Dafu is today, thanks to his surname Lu. official."

"But according to what you said, why did the surname Lu kill Jia Dafu and not want to take the money?"

"That's because of him. He was stabbed recently, and the corruption was reported. The emperor has already started an investigation, so this is why he wants to kill him."

"The one surnamed Lu is really audacious."

"31 lives, what a crime..."

"Hmph, I think that the government is protecting each other. As the saying goes, officials and officials protect each other, so if someone comes to investigate, it will be nothing."

"Who do you think is coming here?"

For a while, the common people were chattering and having different opinions.

The dark clouds in the sky seem to be dancing, just like people's emotions, they have long been unable to hold back and will be released. The people on the ground are greeted by the darkening sky, gloomy and oppressive. The people from Beijing have not yet arrived, but the whole Hong County There has been an undercurrent.

After a while, rain fell from the sky, breaking the dullness.

And a deafening sound of horseshoes tore through the rain curtain, and gradually came from a distance. The rumbling sound stepped on Jin Shan's heart every step of the way. He wiped the rain from his face, and raised his eyes slightly to look at the blurry sky ahead. lump.

Yuan Yanxi...

Not easy to deal with.

He glanced at Wei Qianzhou behind him on the right, and Chang Yao beside him, and saw that both of them bowed their heads in silence and couldn't see the expressions on their faces clearly, so he turned his head.

"Call..."

The sound of horseshoes finally stopped in front of him, like a mountain, pressing against his forehead.

Yu Jinshan and the others quickly knelt down: "I welcome you, Lord Factory Superintendent."

"Where is Yu Jinshan!" A clear voice sounded.

Yu Jinshan was amazed at the immaturity of the voice, and quickly returned respectfully: "This subordinate is right."

"Immediately take us to the ruined temple where Jia Dafu died, and leave everyone else behind."

Yuan Yanxi could clearly see that the people below were shocked, and was about to withdraw his eyes in disdain, but when he ignored one of them, he paused for a moment.

"Seeing that the weather is about to change, I'm afraid it's going to be a heavy rain. The factory superintendent's daughter must not be exposed to the cold. I have prepared thin vegetables..." Yu Jinshan hadn't finished his sentence.

Dong Hai stopped him and said, "The factory supervisor is busy with his official duties, so he doesn't need these formalities. Yu Zhixian, please."

Yu Jinshan had heard some rumors about Dongchang, so he had better be cautious in this meeting.

"Yes, then, my lord, please come with me." He jumped on the horse neatly, told his subordinates to go back to the Yamen and wait, and then rode to the front of the team, ready to set off.

"Wait a minute." Yuan Yanxi ordered with lazy indifference.

Yu Jinshan looked back puzzled, and this was the first time he saw the 'Red Rakshasa' who made people talk about it - Yuan Yanxi, the director of the East Factory.

Seeing his sharp eyes, he quickly lowered his head, "I don't know what else the factory supervisor has to say."

"I heard that when Jia Dafu was discovered, Yuzhi County was in the process of flood control. It was Changxian Cheng who went to the scene first. Why don't you let him go together so that you can learn more about the situation at that time."

Yu Jinshan immediately agreed, "The factory supervisor is more thoughtful."

When Chang Yao breathed a sigh of relief, he was stunned for a moment when he heard his name, and saw that his whole body was tense, as if he was suppressed, and then he let go of his shoulders, led the horse led by his attendants, and led the crowd towards the temple.

"Did you see it? Did you see it? It's actually the famous Yuan Factory Superintendent!" An excited lady's voice sounded.

A woman next to her was full of contempt: "Look at your coquettishness, why, just after your husband died, you started to miss men?"

"Oh, I said Aunt Zhang, how can you spray dung when you open your mouth? When the factory supervisor looked at us just now, I saw your face is redder than a monkey's buttocks. I don't know who is attracted to men. .”

Seeing that they were about to start swearing at each other, Yang's second son yelled at them: "You two stupid women! You know nothing about men, go home and nurse."

Only then did the two women turn their faces away resentfully, but they didn't move.

Dacheng pushed Yang Laoer's shoulder: "What's the matter? Yang Laoer, you are the only one in this county who often goes to the capital to work for others. Tell me, what kind of person is this Master Yuan?"

Yang Lao Er covered his mouth with his hands, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "You just wait, something big is going to happen in our Hong County!"

Hong County, where a big event was about to happen, really began to rain cats and dogs at this moment, and the clothes were drenched in a blink of an eye, and the people who gathered together began to rush to find a big tree to shelter from the rain.

And those officials, after Yuan Yanxi and the others left, exchanged glances with each other, and then boarded the carriage and left under the umbrella of the servants.

Walking in the last carriage, unhurried, a man dressed as a guard in a bamboo hat seemed to be talking to the people in the carriage, he nodded vigorously, and after a while, he hurriedly left in the direction of the county. go.

County magistrate

"Ma'am, Ma'am, the master took the factory supervisor from the capital and went straight to the ruined temple."

Zhao Shuxian felt a tightness in her chest when she heard the notification, "cough cough cough..."

Seeing this, the servant girl quickly brought hot tea, and at the same time gently patted her on the back.

"Has the messenger come back?" Zhao Shuxian asked the housekeeper.

"Go back to madam, Zhao De hasn't come back yet, but he should be on his way now."

Zhao Shuxian clasped her hands together, and said without listening: "Bodhisattva bless you, please keep me safe and sound."
