Chapter 670 Wang Hong
Lin Yuan gave him a funny look, stood up and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, with my boss around, everything can be solved."
The little boy looked up at Lin Yuan with his tearful eyes, sniffed his nose, nodded and said, "Dong, Dong, why did you come here? The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper's head is going to be beheaded, woohoo. "
It seems that this young man was frightened by what the yamen servant said just now.
"Don't worry, I won't chop off my head." Lin Yuan patted him lightly on the shoulder, and comforted him: "With us here, nothing will happen to shopkeeper Wu. Well, now, tell the truth What happened?"
Perhaps it was Lin Yuan's gentle voice that reassured the boy. The boy sniffled, wiped away his tears and began to speak slowly.
Speaking of it, it was still the same thing, a young master came to Xiangmanlou for dinner, it was a very common thing, but before the meal was finished, the young master suddenly put his hands on his chest and became short of breath.
The person who was eating at the same table as the young master quickly called the doctor. The doctor made a diagnosis and said it was poisoning. Fortunately, the young master was fine, and he was fine after taking some medicine.But the incident of poisoning terrified all the diners in Xiangmanlou. At that time, no less than a hundred people ate there. Was it because the food in Xiangmanlou was poisoned or was someone intentionally poisoning that young master?
Lin Yuanxia Zheng looked at each other and thought of the crux of the matter.
But the magistrate of the county didn't expect it. He insisted that it was the people from Xiangmanlou who poisoned him, so he had shopkeeper Wu tied up and taken to prison on the spot.
"Is that son's food really poisonous? What kind of poison did they find in the food?" Lin Yuan asked in a deep voice.
The little boy curled his lips: "Where is the poison? The doctor tested it again in front of everyone, and there is no poison in the food at all. The shopkeeper Wu ate it himself, and it's okay."
"What kind of poison is in that young master?" Xia Zheng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.
The little guy still remembered being yelled at by Xia Zheng just now, and he shook his head timidly with lingering fear: "I don't know, the doctor just said it was poisoned, but he didn't say what it was."
Didn't say what kind of poison it was?Is that poisoning?
There are many doubts in this.
Seeing the distressed look at the door, Lin Yuan turned her head and asked, "What's going on outside the door?"
Speaking of this, the boy's thin body trembled slightly, and his voice trembled: "Well, it was smashed by the people in the city. Huh, the county magistrate won't let us open for business. The people in the shop They were all kicked out. I was homeless, and the deputy shopkeeper asked me to stay and look at the store. Who knew that I woke up this early in the morning, and was woken up by those people's rotten vegetable leaves, woo woo."
"You hide and cry when you get smashed?" Seeing that the boy was about to start crying again, Xia Zheng snorted irritably, glared at him with hatred, and as expected successfully stared at the boy's tears. went back.
Lin Yuan was angry and funny, tugged at Xia Zheng's sleeve, and shook his head at him. The boy looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, not much older than her.However, she has lived her whole life. This little guy is still a child, so of course he is afraid when encountering such a thing.
The little guy curled his lips and sobbed: "I, I don't want to cry, but, just after I cleaned the outside, those people came and threw it again. I have to clean it four or five times a day. Once , Once I was cleaning, and there was an old woman chasing me and throwing rotten eggs at me! Woohoo, fortunately I ran fast, otherwise, my head would be full of eggs."
Xia Zheng muttered angrily: "If you can't even run away from an old lady, you will have lived for nothing for more than ten years."
puff.
Lin Yuan couldn't hold back for a moment, and burst out laughing.
Xia Zheng squinted at her. It's this time, and he's still in the mood to laugh?
Lin Yuan shrugged, she really couldn't hold back, don't mind!
When the two were eyeing the lawsuit, the young man suddenly asked cautiously: "Well, you two bosses, we, we beat up those government servants just now, and when they go back, they will definitely sue us. How about you two?" Go out and hide?"
"hide?"
Xia Zheng yelled loudly, his eyes widened in disbelief, as if "hiding" was beyond his ability.
Seeing that the boy was about to cry from fright, Lin Yuan quickly smiled and said, "You told us to hide, what about you?"
"I won't hide anymore. The shopkeeper told me to watch in the store. The shopkeeper is gone. I, I must watch the shop carefully. I must not allow anyone to harm Xiangmanlou." Xiao Xiao The buddy was filled with righteous indignation, as if there was endless energy in his small body.
However, there were still tears in his eyes that he hadn't had time to wipe away. It was hard to imagine that those sonorous and powerful words just came out of this little guy's mouth.
"Hmph, you little bastard knows how to live and die with Xiangmanlou, but I, the boss, want to run away, what a joke!"
Xia Zheng squinted his eyes, sat down in the chair, and stretched out his two long legs in an inconspicuous manner.This comfortable sitting posture made it hard to imagine that he was about to face a county magistrate.
The boy looked at Lin Yuan, who smiled sweetly and sat firmly beside Xia Zheng.
Knowing that these two people would not go away, the young man scratched his head and asked timidly: "Then, why don't we go to the county government to surrender first, after all, we beat someone first, if we wait until the magistrate brings us If people come to arrest us, we will definitely suffer."
I don't know what he thought of, but the boy's face suddenly turned pale: "I heard, I heard that there are man-eating tigers in the prison, which can eat the prisoners without leaving any bones! Amitabha, Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless you, bless the shopkeeper!" You will not encounter a man-eating tiger, Amitabha!"
The boy put his hands together and begged his grandpa to sue his grandma, so cute. Lin Yuan covered her lips with a smile, and looked at Xia Zheng: "Is it really waiting here?"
Xia Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Otherwise? I don't believe that Wang Hong doesn't know that I am the boss behind Xiangmanlou, and he did it on purpose."
Lin Yuan's eyes dimmed. It would be easy if she didn't know, and it would be really troublesome if she still did it after knowing.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a mess of footsteps from far to near. Lin Yi moved his ears and sneered: "They think highly of me, they should have brought all the servants in the county government."
I brought them all, at least twenty or thirty.
The corners of Lin Yuan's lips twitched, a little uneasy, not because of fear, but because of Xia Zheng. With so many people, they probably came here to silence Xia Zheng's identity on purpose, right?Can Ji Dong handle it alone?
Just as he was thinking about it, Wang Hong's resonant voice came in from outside the door: "The people inside, come out to me! A bold thief, dare to beat the imperial court official! I think you have eaten the heart of a bear! Come, surround Xiangmanlou with me, and I will never let a traitor go, not even a fly!"
"Yes! Master, don't worry!"
It was the yamen servant whose chin was removed by Lin Yi who answered the conversation. Lin Yuan heard his voice, and couldn't help but find it funny. He put his chin back in just a short while?It's just that no matter how you speak, it still sounds a bit leaky, just like a broken bellows.
Seeing this situation, the boy was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
Ji Dong leaned aside with his chest folded, glanced at the young man, and ignored him.
"What's going on? Did the people inside hear it? Why don't you come out? If you don't come out, I will set it on fire!"
True to his name, Wang Hong's voice was so loud that he didn't need someone to speak for him.Hearing that he was going to set fire, Lin Yuan frowned even tighter. Could it be that this guy doesn't know Xia Zheng's identity?
Xia Zheng obviously thought of this too, touched his chest, took out a jade pendant and threw it to Ji Dong.
Ji Dong raised his hand to take it, and with a flip of his hand, he threw the jade pendant directly outside the door.
Wang Hong scratched his neck and was still looking inside, wondering what kind of traitor dared to beat up the yamen servant, when he suddenly saw a dark thing approaching from far and near, directly towards his forehead.
"There are assassins! There are assassins!"
The leading yamen servant yelled loudly, but fled the fastest.
Wang Hong groaned, his forehead felt cold and hurt, and when he took it with his hand, a cool thing fell into the palm of his hand.
"My lord, my lord, spare my life! My lord, spare my life!"
Xia Zheng crossed Erlang's legs, condescendingly looked down at Wang Hong who was kneeling in front of him, and finally pursed his lips tightly.
Wang Hong quietly wiped off his cold sweat, feeling so regretful that his intestines were turning green.How did he know that the person who beat up the yamen servant turned out to be the second son of General Chang Sheng Xia Heng!
Although he has never been in the capital, Xia Zheng's reputation has long been familiar and he can't be more familiar. He is a great devil in the world!Don't say that those officials in the capital, that is, the emperor, sometimes have nothing to do with him.
Now that he actually kicked this iron plate, doesn't he think his life is too long?
"Young master, I'm an official, I really don't know, this Xiangmanlou is your property! If I knew about it earlier, I would kill this official, and I wouldn't dare to make you angry!"
Xia Zheng snorted, looked down at his fingers again, as if there were flowers on those fingers.
Although he only heard a simple tone, Wang Hong's body still trembled involuntarily.
"Heh, who is this court official who is kneeling? Why did you give me such a grand ceremony?"
Wang Hong wiped his sweat, and his knees began to tremble.He really deserves to be the great devil in the world, he can make him break out in a cold sweat with fear.
"Hey, son, although you don't like everyone calling you, we all know that the emperor named you the king of the county just after you were born. The next official is just a small county magistrate. It is right to salute you. Yes, it should." Wang Hong accompanied him with a playful smile, for fear that he might accidentally offend the Great Demon King again.
Lin Yuan on the side looked at Xia Zheng suspiciously. It turned out that this guy was still a county king. She thought he was just an idler. No wonder Li Chang and Wang Hong couldn't help being terrified when they saw him.
Xia Zheng glanced at Wang Hong: "Since you know the rules of the master, don't mention the matter of the county king to the master."
"Yes, yes, the lower officials talk too much, the lower officials talk too much." Wang Hong chuckled, sweating layer after layer.
Seeing Wang Hong's hopeless appearance, Lin Yuan couldn't help curling her lips. This Wang Hong should be the father of that Wang Qiaoxin, no wonder he took Chen Zhuzi seriously and made him his son-in-law. He put all the chips on him.
Although there were no people watching at the gate, it was outrageous for a magistrate to kneel on the ground all the time. Even if Xia Zheng didn't give Wang Hong face, he should give face to the old emperor, after all, he was his subordinate.
Hearing that he was asked to get up, Wang Hong was both surprised and happy, but when he got up, he couldn't help but his legs went limp, and he fell down again.
Xia Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Master Wang is old and frail, right? Why don't you tell you when you go back, so that you can retire early and return to your hometown to enjoy the blessings?"
This time, Wang Hong's legs were really weak, and he stood up with force, and squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying: "No, no, Xiaguan's body is still very strong! Thank you for your kindness, young master, thank you for your kindness !"
Xia Zheng curled his lips, and sneered in his heart, rotten officials like you who occupy the latrine and don't shit should be disarmed and return to the fields.
Pointing to the two seals thrown on the ground with the tip of his toes, Xia Zheng's voice became a little colder: "Master Wang, tell me, what's going on."
Looking at the seal on the ground, Wang Hong was angry and regretful, and quickly explained: "My lord, forgive me, this seal was not approved by the lower officials."
"Heh." Xia Zheng sneered: "Are you an illiterate master or a fool? This seal clearly states that you are the magistrate of Yecheng, and you still argue?"
Xia Zheng slapped the table, scaring Wang Hong's back wet again.
"Young master, this, this seal was given by the lower official, but it is really not the lower official's idea to seal Xiangmanlou." Wang Hong's heart was hardened, and he said anxiously: "This is all sealed by the lower official from the prefect of Tang. He told the subordinate officials that there was a poisoning incident in Xiangmanlou, and he must not let it go lightly!"
Prefect Tang?Xia Zheng's eyes were deep. It seemed that this Wang Hong had been used as a gunman. The real mastermind behind the scenes was the one surnamed Tang.
Lin Yuan also thought of the key point. No wonder Wang Hong hated and was angry when he said the word Tang Zhifu just now, gnashing his teeth and wishing he could be torn to pieces.
"I'll just trust you once about the seal. But, Mr. Wang, have you found out about the poison in the downstairs? The magistrate of Tang sealed it as soon as he said it. Don't you have any brains?"
Wang Hong was about to cry at this time, and said pitifully, "My lord, you have wronged me for being an official for this poisoning incident. This matter is simply beyond the control of an official."
"This happened in Yecheng, you said you can't control it, who are you bluffing?" Xia Zheng was anxious, and slapped the table again.
Lin Yuan on the side couldn't help but pursed the corners of her lips. She wasn't worried about whether Xia Zheng's hand hurt or not, but worried about whether the table would be able to bear it if she continued to shoot like this.
"My lord, I really didn't lie, even if I gave you a hundred courage, I wouldn't dare to bully you!" Wang Hong really wanted to die.
"My lord, this matter is under the jurisdiction of the prefect of Tang. Huh, I am a small county magistrate, how can I compare with his magistrate? After this happened, he took everyone away directly. , Xiaguan didn’t even touch the letter at all!”
What Wang Hong said was true, he was a worthless county magistrate, the magistrate was in charge, and all benefits belonged to him, but when it came to work, it was all his county magistrate's.Just like this time, he snatched away the good job of asking for credit, and left him the rest of the job of sealing up Xiangmanlou.Now that things have happened, he absolutely believes that the prefect of Tang knows the true identity of the owner behind Xiangmanlou.This Tang Qing just saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, so he specially dug a hole for him!
Although Xia Zheng is not in the officialdom, how could he not understand as smart as him?I was so impatient that I stared at the Internet celebrity, and cursed "Worthless" inwardly!
Lin Yuan also understood at this time, and suddenly asked: "Which family is the son who was poisoned? Is his status very noble?"
Wang Hong quietly glanced at Xia Zheng, carefully choosing his words, no matter how noble, it is not worth mentioning in front of this master!
"Young master, where is his status? It's just that he has a few broken coins!" Wang Hongyi snorted, and Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing, as if he didn't love money.
Xia Zhengcai was not used to his stink, so he said coldly: "Don't pretend to be noble here! If you don't tell me, you think you don't know about Xiangmanlou's filial piety to you?"
"Cough cough." Wang Hong saliva blocked his throat, and the sweat was pouring down like rain. He peeked at Xia Zheng with his eyeballs, and found that he had no intention of pursuing, so he quickly changed the subject: "Master, Girl, the person who was poisoned was none other than An Jie, the eldest son of Anjia Winery."
Anjia Winery!Unexpectedly, this matter would have something to do with An's family.
There was an accident in Xiangmanlou, even if Zuixianju hadn't been poisoned and framed, it must be inevitable, otherwise Tang Qing, a mere magistrate, would not dare to challenge Xia Zheng.Even if he is not afraid of Xia Zheng, he will be afraid of the General's Mansion and Princess Anle behind him.
Lin Yuan was very sure that Tang Qing should have boarded the second prince's thief ship, and he dared to detain shopkeeper Wu and seal Xiangmanlou with the second prince's escort.
Lin Yuan felt that her head was getting bigger. This was Zuixianju and the second prince's, and now another Anjia was involved.If the poisoning was just an accident, that's all. If it was deliberate, it seems that this game of chess is really not small.
"Were you there when An Jie was poisoned? Do you know what poison he was poisoned?" Lin Yuan rubbed her brows, hoping that Wang Hong could tell her something that the boy didn't know, "Also, what kind of food did they eat at that time?" ? Did the people at the same table feel anything strange?"
Lin Yuan asked several questions in a row, but Wang Hong became more and more stupid as he listened. Even if he was present at the time, he didn't notice these things!
Seeing his embarrassing look of hesitating and not knowing what to say, Xia Zheng sneered and answered for him: "You asked him? Heh, our Lord Wang, we were so busy at that time that we didn't touch the ground, how could we have the time to meddle in such trivial matters?"
business?Lin Yuan wondered, what she asked was the key to solving the case, how could it be nosy?Could it be that the county magistrate is not as good as her?
Xia Zheng's slender fingers tapped on the table repeatedly, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing an intriguing smile: "The key you think is not the key that Mr. Wang thinks, money is the key!"
Hearing this, Wang Hong, whose legs were already limp, collapsed to the ground, crying and begging for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me, my lord! I was really trying to curry favor with the Patriarch of the An family, so I didn't have time to ask about the situation when the incident happened. The next official knows his mistake, he knows his mistake!"
Xia Zheng rolled his eyes, and then gave Lin Yuan another wink, what's up, sir, right!
Lin Yuan pursed her lips, look at you officials, none of you really plead for the people!
Xia Zheng's eyes widened, he was not among those corrupt officials!
Lin Yuan rolled her eyes and ignored him.
Xia Zheng hit a soft nail, turned his head and vented his anger on Wang Hong: "Since the matter has not been investigated clearly, release the shopkeeper Wu!"
Wang Hong hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, my subordinates will immediately ask shopkeeper Wu to be brought along. Cough cough, please come back."
As he said that, he gave an order to the leading yamen servant who was already stiff into ice. The yamen servant was frightened when Wang Hong knelt down, and he still hasn't recovered after a while.Wang Hong secretly cursed at the useless thing, and kicked him twice before he woke up.
With the lessons learned just now, the yamen servants are very agile in their work, and they have really invited people back before even a stick of incense.
Shopkeeper Wu got off the sedan chair, choked up with sobs and was so excited that he wanted to kneel down to thank Xia Zheng, but Lin Yuan quickly stopped him.
When the family was reunited and chatting, Wang Hong was so discerning that he stepped aside.
After inquiring shopkeeper Wu to make sure that he had not endured hardships, Lin and Yuan felt relieved and asked him about the incident in detail.
Shopkeeper Wu had everything to say, and finally sighed sadly: "It's all my fault for being careless, and I let the murderer take advantage of it!"
Lin Yuan softly comforted him a few words and asked the boy to take him back to the room to rest, then looked at Xia Zheng and said, "How is it?"
Xia Zheng glanced at the embarrassed Wang Hong, and said coldly, "Of course I went to see the victim."
Thank you for the monthly tickets, flowers and diamonds~ Meme~
That girl who voted for 21 monthly tickets in one go, come on, let me hug my thigh!Ho Ho!
There is a second update today, it should be in the afternoon, it won't be too late~
(End of this chapter)
Lin Yuan gave him a funny look, stood up and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, with my boss around, everything can be solved."
The little boy looked up at Lin Yuan with his tearful eyes, sniffed his nose, nodded and said, "Dong, Dong, why did you come here? The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper's head is going to be beheaded, woohoo. "
It seems that this young man was frightened by what the yamen servant said just now.
"Don't worry, I won't chop off my head." Lin Yuan patted him lightly on the shoulder, and comforted him: "With us here, nothing will happen to shopkeeper Wu. Well, now, tell the truth What happened?"
Perhaps it was Lin Yuan's gentle voice that reassured the boy. The boy sniffled, wiped away his tears and began to speak slowly.
Speaking of it, it was still the same thing, a young master came to Xiangmanlou for dinner, it was a very common thing, but before the meal was finished, the young master suddenly put his hands on his chest and became short of breath.
The person who was eating at the same table as the young master quickly called the doctor. The doctor made a diagnosis and said it was poisoning. Fortunately, the young master was fine, and he was fine after taking some medicine.But the incident of poisoning terrified all the diners in Xiangmanlou. At that time, no less than a hundred people ate there. Was it because the food in Xiangmanlou was poisoned or was someone intentionally poisoning that young master?
Lin Yuanxia Zheng looked at each other and thought of the crux of the matter.
But the magistrate of the county didn't expect it. He insisted that it was the people from Xiangmanlou who poisoned him, so he had shopkeeper Wu tied up and taken to prison on the spot.
"Is that son's food really poisonous? What kind of poison did they find in the food?" Lin Yuan asked in a deep voice.
The little boy curled his lips: "Where is the poison? The doctor tested it again in front of everyone, and there is no poison in the food at all. The shopkeeper Wu ate it himself, and it's okay."
"What kind of poison is in that young master?" Xia Zheng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.
The little guy still remembered being yelled at by Xia Zheng just now, and he shook his head timidly with lingering fear: "I don't know, the doctor just said it was poisoned, but he didn't say what it was."
Didn't say what kind of poison it was?Is that poisoning?
There are many doubts in this.
Seeing the distressed look at the door, Lin Yuan turned her head and asked, "What's going on outside the door?"
Speaking of this, the boy's thin body trembled slightly, and his voice trembled: "Well, it was smashed by the people in the city. Huh, the county magistrate won't let us open for business. The people in the shop They were all kicked out. I was homeless, and the deputy shopkeeper asked me to stay and look at the store. Who knew that I woke up this early in the morning, and was woken up by those people's rotten vegetable leaves, woo woo."
"You hide and cry when you get smashed?" Seeing that the boy was about to start crying again, Xia Zheng snorted irritably, glared at him with hatred, and as expected successfully stared at the boy's tears. went back.
Lin Yuan was angry and funny, tugged at Xia Zheng's sleeve, and shook his head at him. The boy looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, not much older than her.However, she has lived her whole life. This little guy is still a child, so of course he is afraid when encountering such a thing.
The little guy curled his lips and sobbed: "I, I don't want to cry, but, just after I cleaned the outside, those people came and threw it again. I have to clean it four or five times a day. Once , Once I was cleaning, and there was an old woman chasing me and throwing rotten eggs at me! Woohoo, fortunately I ran fast, otherwise, my head would be full of eggs."
Xia Zheng muttered angrily: "If you can't even run away from an old lady, you will have lived for nothing for more than ten years."
puff.
Lin Yuan couldn't hold back for a moment, and burst out laughing.
Xia Zheng squinted at her. It's this time, and he's still in the mood to laugh?
Lin Yuan shrugged, she really couldn't hold back, don't mind!
When the two were eyeing the lawsuit, the young man suddenly asked cautiously: "Well, you two bosses, we, we beat up those government servants just now, and when they go back, they will definitely sue us. How about you two?" Go out and hide?"
"hide?"
Xia Zheng yelled loudly, his eyes widened in disbelief, as if "hiding" was beyond his ability.
Seeing that the boy was about to cry from fright, Lin Yuan quickly smiled and said, "You told us to hide, what about you?"
"I won't hide anymore. The shopkeeper told me to watch in the store. The shopkeeper is gone. I, I must watch the shop carefully. I must not allow anyone to harm Xiangmanlou." Xiao Xiao The buddy was filled with righteous indignation, as if there was endless energy in his small body.
However, there were still tears in his eyes that he hadn't had time to wipe away. It was hard to imagine that those sonorous and powerful words just came out of this little guy's mouth.

Xia Zheng squinted his eyes, sat down in the chair, and stretched out his two long legs in an inconspicuous manner.This comfortable sitting posture made it hard to imagine that he was about to face a county magistrate.
The boy looked at Lin Yuan, who smiled sweetly and sat firmly beside Xia Zheng.
Knowing that these two people would not go away, the young man scratched his head and asked timidly: "Then, why don't we go to the county government to surrender first, after all, we beat someone first, if we wait until the magistrate brings us If people come to arrest us, we will definitely suffer."
I don't know what he thought of, but the boy's face suddenly turned pale: "I heard, I heard that there are man-eating tigers in the prison, which can eat the prisoners without leaving any bones! Amitabha, Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless you, bless the shopkeeper!" You will not encounter a man-eating tiger, Amitabha!"
The boy put his hands together and begged his grandpa to sue his grandma, so cute. Lin Yuan covered her lips with a smile, and looked at Xia Zheng: "Is it really waiting here?"
Xia Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Otherwise? I don't believe that Wang Hong doesn't know that I am the boss behind Xiangmanlou, and he did it on purpose."
Lin Yuan's eyes dimmed. It would be easy if she didn't know, and it would be really troublesome if she still did it after knowing.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a mess of footsteps from far to near. Lin Yi moved his ears and sneered: "They think highly of me, they should have brought all the servants in the county government."

Ji Dong leaned aside with his chest folded, glanced at the young man, and ignored him.
"What's going on? Did the people inside hear it? Why don't you come out? If you don't come out, I will set it on fire!"
True to his name, Wang Hong's voice was so loud that he didn't need someone to speak for him.Hearing that he was going to set fire, Lin Yuan frowned even tighter. Could it be that this guy doesn't know Xia Zheng's identity?
Xia Zheng obviously thought of this too, touched his chest, took out a jade pendant and threw it to Ji Dong.

"Young master, I'm an official, I really don't know, this Xiangmanlou is your property! If I knew about it earlier, I would kill this official, and I wouldn't dare to make you angry!"
Xia Zheng snorted, looked down at his fingers again, as if there were flowers on those fingers.

"Heh, who is this court official who is kneeling? Why did you give me such a grand ceremony?"
Wang Hong wiped his sweat, and his knees began to tremble.He really deserves to be the great devil in the world, he can make him break out in a cold sweat with fear.

This time, Wang Hong's legs were really weak, and he stood up with force, and squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying: "No, no, Xiaguan's body is still very strong! Thank you for your kindness, young master, thank you for your kindness !"
Xia Zheng curled his lips, and sneered in his heart, rotten officials like you who occupy the latrine and don't shit should be disarmed and return to the fields.
Pointing to the two seals thrown on the ground with the tip of his toes, Xia Zheng's voice became a little colder: "Master Wang, tell me, what's going on."
Looking at the seal on the ground, Wang Hong was angry and regretful, and quickly explained: "My lord, forgive me, this seal was not approved by the lower officials."
"Heh." Xia Zheng sneered: "Are you an illiterate master or a fool? This seal clearly states that you are the magistrate of Yecheng, and you still argue?"
Xia Zheng slapped the table, scaring Wang Hong's back wet again.
"Young master, this, this seal was given by the lower official, but it is really not the lower official's idea to seal Xiangmanlou." Wang Hong's heart was hardened, and he said anxiously: "This is all sealed by the lower official from the prefect of Tang. He told the subordinate officials that there was a poisoning incident in Xiangmanlou, and he must not let it go lightly!"
Prefect Tang?Xia Zheng's eyes were deep. It seemed that this Wang Hong had been used as a gunman. The real mastermind behind the scenes was the one surnamed Tang.
Lin Yuan also thought of the key point. No wonder Wang Hong hated and was angry when he said the word Tang Zhifu just now, gnashing his teeth and wishing he could be torn to pieces.
"I'll just trust you once about the seal. But, Mr. Wang, have you found out about the poison in the downstairs? The magistrate of Tang sealed it as soon as he said it. Don't you have any brains?"
Wang Hong was about to cry at this time, and said pitifully, "My lord, you have wronged me for being an official for this poisoning incident. This matter is simply beyond the control of an official."
"This happened in Yecheng, you said you can't control it, who are you bluffing?" Xia Zheng was anxious, and slapped the table again.
Lin Yuan on the side couldn't help but pursed the corners of her lips. She wasn't worried about whether Xia Zheng's hand hurt or not, but worried about whether the table would be able to bear it if she continued to shoot like this.
"My lord, I really didn't lie, even if I gave you a hundred courage, I wouldn't dare to bully you!" Wang Hong really wanted to die.
"My lord, this matter is under the jurisdiction of the prefect of Tang. Huh, I am a small county magistrate, how can I compare with his magistrate? After this happened, he took everyone away directly. , Xiaguan didn’t even touch the letter at all!”
What Wang Hong said was true, he was a worthless county magistrate, the magistrate was in charge, and all benefits belonged to him, but when it came to work, it was all his county magistrate's.Just like this time, he snatched away the good job of asking for credit, and left him the rest of the job of sealing up Xiangmanlou.Now that things have happened, he absolutely believes that the prefect of Tang knows the true identity of the owner behind Xiangmanlou.This Tang Qing just saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, so he specially dug a hole for him!
Although Xia Zheng is not in the officialdom, how could he not understand as smart as him?I was so impatient that I stared at the Internet celebrity, and cursed "Worthless" inwardly!
Lin Yuan also understood at this time, and suddenly asked: "Which family is the son who was poisoned? Is his status very noble?"
Wang Hong quietly glanced at Xia Zheng, carefully choosing his words, no matter how noble, it is not worth mentioning in front of this master!
"Young master, where is his status? It's just that he has a few broken coins!" Wang Hongyi snorted, and Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing, as if he didn't love money.
Xia Zhengcai was not used to his stink, so he said coldly: "Don't pretend to be noble here! If you don't tell me, you think you don't know about Xiangmanlou's filial piety to you?"
"Cough cough." Wang Hong saliva blocked his throat, and the sweat was pouring down like rain. He peeked at Xia Zheng with his eyeballs, and found that he had no intention of pursuing, so he quickly changed the subject: "Master, Girl, the person who was poisoned was none other than An Jie, the eldest son of Anjia Winery."
Anjia Winery!Unexpectedly, this matter would have something to do with An's family.
There was an accident in Xiangmanlou, even if Zuixianju hadn't been poisoned and framed, it must be inevitable, otherwise Tang Qing, a mere magistrate, would not dare to challenge Xia Zheng.Even if he is not afraid of Xia Zheng, he will be afraid of the General's Mansion and Princess Anle behind him.
Lin Yuan was very sure that Tang Qing should have boarded the second prince's thief ship, and he dared to detain shopkeeper Wu and seal Xiangmanlou with the second prince's escort.
Lin Yuan felt that her head was getting bigger. This was Zuixianju and the second prince's, and now another Anjia was involved.If the poisoning was just an accident, that's all. If it was deliberate, it seems that this game of chess is really not small.
"Were you there when An Jie was poisoned? Do you know what poison he was poisoned?" Lin Yuan rubbed her brows, hoping that Wang Hong could tell her something that the boy didn't know, "Also, what kind of food did they eat at that time?" ? Did the people at the same table feel anything strange?"
Lin Yuan asked several questions in a row, but Wang Hong became more and more stupid as he listened. Even if he was present at the time, he didn't notice these things!
Seeing his embarrassing look of hesitating and not knowing what to say, Xia Zheng sneered and answered for him: "You asked him? Heh, our Lord Wang, we were so busy at that time that we didn't touch the ground, how could we have the time to meddle in such trivial matters?"
business?Lin Yuan wondered, what she asked was the key to solving the case, how could it be nosy?Could it be that the county magistrate is not as good as her?
Xia Zheng's slender fingers tapped on the table repeatedly, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing an intriguing smile: "The key you think is not the key that Mr. Wang thinks, money is the key!"
Hearing this, Wang Hong, whose legs were already limp, collapsed to the ground, crying and begging for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me, my lord! I was really trying to curry favor with the Patriarch of the An family, so I didn't have time to ask about the situation when the incident happened. The next official knows his mistake, he knows his mistake!"
Xia Zheng rolled his eyes, and then gave Lin Yuan another wink, what's up, sir, right!
Lin Yuan pursed her lips, look at you officials, none of you really plead for the people!
Xia Zheng's eyes widened, he was not among those corrupt officials!
Lin Yuan rolled her eyes and ignored him.
Xia Zheng hit a soft nail, turned his head and vented his anger on Wang Hong: "Since the matter has not been investigated clearly, release the shopkeeper Wu!"
Wang Hong hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, my subordinates will immediately ask shopkeeper Wu to be brought along. Cough cough, please come back."
As he said that, he gave an order to the leading yamen servant who was already stiff into ice. The yamen servant was frightened when Wang Hong knelt down, and he still hasn't recovered after a while.Wang Hong secretly cursed at the useless thing, and kicked him twice before he woke up.
With the lessons learned just now, the yamen servants are very agile in their work, and they have really invited people back before even a stick of incense.
Shopkeeper Wu got off the sedan chair, choked up with sobs and was so excited that he wanted to kneel down to thank Xia Zheng, but Lin Yuan quickly stopped him.
When the family was reunited and chatting, Wang Hong was so discerning that he stepped aside.
After inquiring shopkeeper Wu to make sure that he had not endured hardships, Lin and Yuan felt relieved and asked him about the incident in detail.
Shopkeeper Wu had everything to say, and finally sighed sadly: "It's all my fault for being careless, and I let the murderer take advantage of it!"
Lin Yuan softly comforted him a few words and asked the boy to take him back to the room to rest, then looked at Xia Zheng and said, "How is it?"
Xia Zheng glanced at the embarrassed Wang Hong, and said coldly, "Of course I went to see the victim."
