Chapter 27
"Sir!" Jian Qingmai crossed the threshold, came in from the outside, bowed respectfully to Jiang Zhonglin, and knelt down according to the rules.

Jian Qing was unwilling to kneel to Zhao Di because her years of education prevented her from submitting to the powerful.But she knelt in front of this hall with peace of mind because, at this moment, what she had to do was to expose the truth, clear the innocent, and seek justice for the deceased.

What she knelt on were the four words "A clear mirror hangs high". These four words were not interpreted by Jiang Zhonglin. These four words were the belief in the hearts of all ordinary people, and she had to uphold this belief.

"Sir, please tell me a few words. This little beggar's name is Zheng Dong'er. He is the little beggar who reported He Donglai for murder this morning and handed the note to the county government." After Jian Qing finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Hong. Go, she lowered her head and held her hands on the ground. Jian Qing could only see the top of her head clearly, but could not see her expression.

The maid who served as the number one in Nongyu Tower looked very calm.

hiss!
Jiang Zhonglin was a fool, and he could see it now. This case was getting more and more complicated.The journey from suicide to homicide was enough for him to drink a bottle, what else would happen next?

But no matter what, there was no hope of promotion. He couldn't help but start thinking, when he went to the temple to burn incense this spring, should he step his left foot first or his right foot?
When Jiang Zhonglin was distracted, Shi Zhong took over. He had a hunch that the case would be settled today, and the adult would probably let him go. He hurriedly asked, "Tell me, what happened?" ?”

"Sir, this morning, when the common man was washing his face by the river, he was tricked into the city. The man threatened the common man and asked him to send a note to the county government officials, saying that the man from the Xinglai Inn was raped by a man. The one who asked He Donglai was killed..."

"The common people don't have it. The common people are wronged!" He Donglai couldn't help but wailed.

"Quiet!" Shi Zhong didn't have a gavel in his hand, so he had to shout at the top of his voice, waking Jiang Zhonglin awake. He slapped the gavel, and the inside and outside of the hall became quiet.

After all, they were in the lobby. Zheng Donger was so frightened by this situation that he didn't dare to say anything anymore.Jian Qing glanced at her.

Jian Qing was Zheng Dong'er's savior. Zheng Dong'er was encouraged by her eyes and her whole body was full of strength. She took a deep breath and continued, "The common people had no choice but to send the note. They thought they would escape. Who knows, they have no intention of letting the grassroots live. The grassroots are locked in the firewood shed. If it weren't for the arrival of Jane... the county minister's people, the grassroots might have reached the Naihe Bridge! "

Jian Qing's warning glance made Zheng Donger temporarily change his words. Fortunately, no one inside or outside the lobby heard it.

"Lan Huaer, do you know your guilt?"

The name Lan Lao Bustard was not a bad name, but when Jiang Zhonglin shouted it out in the lobby, it brought a sense of joy, and many people watching the excitement outside the lobby started laughing.

Jian Qing didn't smile. She squinted at Lan Lao Bustard. His slightly fat body trembled and said, "Sir, I'm sorry. The common people don't know about this. I don't know when there was a little beggar in the building. The common people don't know." He runs a brothel, so what’s the use of this little beggar? Why don’t he want a big girl to serve the guests?"

Madam Lan didn't know that Zheng Dong'er was a woman, but it was no wonder!
So, who is behind this incident?But she is just a servant girl of Nongyu Loutou Pai. Is there anyone behind her?

"This incident happened in your Nongyulou. Do you want to brush it off completely? Lan Huaer, why don't you just take it seriously?"

People standing on both sides were about to come up for torture. Jian Qing could not accept the torture and extorted a confession. She raised her head and shouted, "Sir, this matter has nothing to do with the madam at Nongyulou. It is related to the murder case at Xinglai Inn. Please ask your lord, the county magistrate." Allow Xiao Xiao to tell the story of the case from beginning to end, and then make a judgment!"

Is it related to a murder case?

Outside the door, there was a sound of sighing, and then the discussion was like a wave, rushing in towards the narrow door of the county government office. Jiang Zhonglin felt his head was buzzing, and suddenly he felt dizzy.

"Ahem!" A cough came from behind the sill window. The sound was high-pitched, making people feel uneasy.

It was the eunuch sent by Prince Ning. What else was he thinking of?Didn’t you see that the prince came to say hello just now?What troubles Jiang Zhonglin the most is that until now, the eunuch has not told him clearly what he wants to do?
Jiang Zhonglin shook his head violently. For the first time, he discovered that the position of county magistrate was not that easy to fill.

Jiang Zhonglin decided to listen to the story of the case first. If he could avoid being offended, that would be the best. If not, he would have to apologize to Song Zhi. Who told him not to be a good man?
"Jian Qing, do you know what you're talking about? You said you want to tell the story of the case. Could it be that you saw who killed the deceased?"

"Sir, why don't you wait patiently and listen to what the little one says slowly?"

"I will give you this opportunity today. If you dare to talk nonsense, I will not let you off lightly!"

Jian Qing was too lazy to pay attention to him, "On the third day of the lunar month, at Shenshi time, Wang Pu came from the south and got off the carriage at the city gate. He asked the coachman to book a room at the Xinglai Inn, and went to the right side of Qian's shop on Zuoback Street. Vacant house..."

"That house, someone went in to clean it on the second day of the new year, and a section of the backyard wall was broken, and someone used tree branches to cover it in the yard."

It sounds like it’s true, and many people don’t know whether to believe it or not.

"Why is it the first day of the lunar month? Not the third day of the lunar month, or the fourth day of the lunar month?" Jiang Zhonglin hated this little fool, and retorted impatiently because he was smart.

"Xianzun, there are two pear trees in that yard. The children of neighbors like to play in the yard, pick pears, play house, and play some games. The younger brother didn’t go home. When the younger brother was looking for his younger brother, he passed by the backyard. At that time, there were no branches behind the broken wall."

Makes sense!

It was very quiet inside and outside. Many old people in Lingqiu County looked back and thought that no one had ever been able to analyze a case in such detail.

It's almost like listening to a story, quite fascinating.

In the window, the white-faced and beardless father-in-law poked a hole in the paper of the window and peeked at Jian Qing. Where did this weird little work come from?

"This year, the weather in Datong Prefecture is very strange. After autumn, there have been a few sporadic light rains. The last two games were a little noisy yesterday, but the first one in the morning of the third day was very heavy and muddy. . Today is the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. When I went to the backyard early in the morning, the branches behind the broken wall were still there. After pushing them away, the ground was dry and not wet. "
