it is good!
The first substantive confession is here!

Mo Xiaobai couldn't help punching with his right hand, but just as he was about to speak, he saw Li Guang also rushing over: "My lord, the general has already found out that the watchman used to be acquainted with He Yin, the county captain, and the three brothers except him are in the city. Da Geng, the other two brothers are working under He Yin."

"County lieutenant? The one who went out of the city to find bandits?"

Mo Xiaobai smiled, with a bit of teasing in his smile: "It seems that Ziwu County is really a place full of snakes and rats, let someone go find Mao Gong, I have something to order."

After half a stick of incense, Li Ji rushed to the county government office with ten recruits.

As soon as Li Ji arrived, Mo Xiaobai immediately ordered: "Mao Gong, now I have three important things for you to do. First, send someone to control the watchmen in Ziwu County; The 'Chunli Building', take away Miss Yun and the cook Lin San; thirdly, find a few reliable recruits, and spread the news that the bandit leader is actually hiding in the county town and has been stolen by me. Every village and every pavilion."

"Three things must be done at the same time. There must be no delay. I don't want to leak any news, so that our opponents have even a little bit of time to respond."

"Feng Xiao, Flying General, we can go to the Zhou Mansion now, and meet that gentleman Zhou."

The truth has almost surfaced, and now Mo Xiaobai is sure to strike the final blow.

He didn't go to the Zhou Mansion before because he was afraid of exposing his shortcomings that he was not good at interrogation and clichés, but now it is different, Mo Xiaobai already has enough information in his hands.

You can go to Zhou's house to see how hard the door and wall of his house are.

The two sides acted together, Li Ji went to direct his subordinates to take people, while Mo Xiaobai brought Guo Jia and Li Guang to Zhou Mansion.

At this time, the entire Zhou Mansion was hung with white cloth, and Zhou Yi's mourning hall was also set up in Zhou's house.

When the three of Mo Xiaobai arrived, no one in the Zhou family dared to stop him, so he went to the mourning hall to burn three sticks of incense for the deceased. Mo Xiaobai glanced at a young man kneeling on the ground, and the corners of his mouth once again showed some amusement.

"Where's your master?"

"Because of the death of the second master, the elder master almost fainted from grief. He has been recuperating in the backyard for the past two days, and his wife took care of him alone."

"It seems that the two brothers of the Zhou family have a deep relationship, which is fascinating." Mo Xiaobai sighed in cooperation, and then looked at the old man beside him: "I wonder how long the butler has been in the Zhou residence?"

"I have been here for about six or seven years. Before the old housekeeper died of illness, the old man sent the old housekeeper and his family back to the hometown. I just entered the Zhou residence."

After hearing this, Mo Xiaobai nodded silently: "In six or seven years, it seems that the butler should have won the trust of your master. This time, the county magistrate of Zhou suffered a sudden change, and you set up a mourning hall to pay tribute. I'm afraid I have ordered you a lot of things."

"In the old days, it was true, but recently the Elder Master rarely gives any orders. Even the decoration of the mourning hall is handled by the madam."

"Oh?"

Coming out of the mourning hall, Mo Xiaobai raised his eyebrows again: "Lead the way ahead, since I'm here, I must meet your master."

"Master County Magistrate, this way please." The housekeeper did not refuse, and immediately led Mo Xiaobai forward.

A moment later, when Mo Xiaobai walked into a bedroom.

The first time I saw Zhou Ding, the late county magistrate's brother lying on the bed, and the Zhou family who was by his side.

After meeting and saying hello, Mo Xiaobai stopped Zhou Ding from getting up, waved his hand and sat down beside him: "I'm new here, and I was supposed to come yesterday, but I'm on business, so I delayed until today. Although the county There are complicated affairs, but you can rest assured that I will definitely give you an explanation for the Zhou family."

"If my lord can find out the truth for my younger brother and bring the culprit to justice, I will be very grateful." The man lying on the bed seemed to be seriously ill, and coughed after barely opening his mouth.

"So sick? Have you ever seen a doctor?"

"My lord, my master is suffering from a heart disease. The doctors all said that he can only rest."

Seeing Mrs. Zhou's reply, Mo Xiaobai immediately shook his head: "Those are all quack doctor's talk. People need to take medicine when they are sick, just like eating when they are hungry. How can we just rely on rest? Fortunately, the person who came with me this time There is a famous doctor, her medical skills are very good, and she can manage both the living and the dead, and she told me a secret just this morning. It is very easy to make the dead eat."

"What does your lord mean by this? What does the eating of the dead have to do with my master?"

"Hey, just say it casually, just say it casually."

Mo Xiaobai stopped talking, and immediately smiled and said: "I just want to tell you that this doctor I brought is a genius doctor. You wait a while, and I will ask her to come to the house for consultation. I will keep you safe tomorrow." Stand up vigorously."

After speaking, he immediately got up and made a posture to greet Li Guang outside the house.

"No, no, just a little trouble, don't bother adults and genius doctors, my master will be fine after lying down for a day or two."

A woman's voice came from behind, and the corners of Mo Xiaobai's mouth slightly raised, and he turned his head and said, "You woman is so strange, I seek medical treatment for your man, but you stop me over and over again? Do you know what you are doing? Or Do you have other plans?"

"This, concubine is not, not"

"It's nothing? I can't make any sense today. This county magistrate can first punish you for deliberately murdering your husband!"

Just when Mo Xiaobai raised his voice, Zhou Ding, who was lying on the bed, stood up and said, "My lord misunderstood, I don't want to see any doctors anymore, I just want to have a quiet rest, my lord doesn't need to blame her as a woman. "

"You don't want to? Okay, just treat me as troublesome."

Mo Xiaobai paused, turned around and said, "My intention is to make you feel better soon, because those murderers are all under my control now, even if there are still one or two fish that slip through the net, they won't be able to escape. The case will be heard in two days, if you can walk easily, why don't you come and listen in."

"If my lord finds out the murderer, I will definitely go there."

"Well, you can rest at ease. I'll go back to the county office first. There are still a lot of official affairs waiting to be dealt with over there." After Mo Xiaobai finished speaking, he turned and walked out of the room, taking Li Guang and Guo Jia away slowly. government.

"My lord, is there any gain from this trip?"

"Heh~ It's a big harvest."

Mo Xiaobai smiled secretly, and then looked at Li Guang: "This time I have to work hard for the general, so keep an eye on this gate. If someone comes out, let's see where he went."

"Here!"

Li Guang clasped his fists and agreed, and soon went to find a place to hide by himself.

As soon as Li Guang left, Mo Xiaobai turned to Guo Jia: "What did you gain from Fengxiao? May I ask how the Zhou brothers were related in the past?"

"Jia just asked a few old people in the family, and they all said that Zhou Yi and Zhou Ding brothers have a deep relationship. After Zhou Yi died this time, Zhou Ding also adopted his youngest son to Zhou Yi, because Zhou Yi He had no heirs."

"Is brotherhood deep? We'll know if it's true after tonight!"
