Kill me a few more times and I'll be invincible

"That's right." Chen Yingxue nodded, her eyes were slightly sad, and there was a kind of sadness that hurt other things.

She is a few years younger than Qian Qian, and the two have worked together for many years, so they know each other quite well.

Regarding Father Qian's matter, although she had never heard Qian Qian mention it, but now that she read the file and made a special investigation, and with the experience of getting along with her, she can make a guess.

"When Qian Qian was young, he was a catcher with no sand in his eyes."

"But since his father was arrested and imprisoned, he entrusted his relationship to ask Nalou's family, and the answer he got was... 1000 taels of silver, and he can redeem himself."

"Captain Qiao, you also know that the monthly salary of the chief constable in Heyang Mansion is five taels of silver. If you want to make up this amount, you will have to eat or drink for sixteen or seventeen years."

(PS: The purchasing power of one tael of silver fluctuated greatly in different ancient dynasties, wars and peace times, ranging from hundreds to thousands. This book takes one tael of silver = 1000 yuan.)

Qiao Mu didn't ask stupid questions like "Has he got the money together?"

From the results, apparently not.

The monthly salary and how much money you can save in a month are obviously two different things.

Chen Yingxue narrowed her long and narrow red phoenix eyes, and there was a touch of emotion in her eyes:

"Captain Joe, you have an amazing background, even though you are in prison, you can live a good life."

"You may not know what kind of life an ordinary prisoner lives in prison...but Qian Butou understands it very well."

"In the past 15 years, how much money he has spent on managing the jailers and officials to make his father's life easier... I can't guess this, but it must not be less."

Qiao Mu narrowed his eyes.

When he talked with the prisoners in the cell before, others said that it is rare for people to live in their 60s, and it is a great blessing that old money can live to die of old age in their [-]s in prison.

Now it seems that this blessing is not that the old money is lucky enough.

It was because someone was making connections behind the scenes, so that Lao Qian could live for so long in a place like a prison.

Qiao Mu pondered for a moment, and then asked: "The headhunter's salary is not enough, but what if it goes further?"

"I heard from Qian Qian that he had already become an eighth-rank martial artist at the age of 28, and he himself is a golden bell jar trained by an external family. Presumably, he is stronger than an ordinary eighth-rank internal martial artist."

"According to the laws of Yan, officials don't have to pay taxes on their salaries, but they are required to be fast as small officials."

"If you're an inner-strength martial artist of the eighth rank, you can be a rank-1000 martial arts official without real power, receive the salary of the eighth rank, and be exempted from taxes. How can you not save the [-] taels?"

Chen Yingxue sighed slightly.

"That's the key."

"Even if it is stipulated in the Great Flame Law, when it is implemented, it is often necessary to talk about one's background."

Origin is important.

Qiao Mu was able to become a head arrester in Heyang Fucheng because of the recommendation of the seventh-rank official Shen Qinghe, otherwise he would be a black household and would be treated as a refugee.

And Qian Qian's background... is even worse than Qiao Mu's black family.

Because he is a public headhunter, and he has a father who is a snitch!

Worse than having a father who was a snitch... the one that the snitch offended was the Lou family who came from a cultivator!The Lou family wants to please even the prison officials!

Therefore.

Qian Qian will not be able to be a military official in this life, neither the eighth-rank official nor the ninth-rank official, and the position of chief arrester in Fucheng... is the same.

Chen Yingxue continued:

"Qian Qian developed his inner strength at the age of 23, was promoted to the eighth rank at the age of 28, and fell to the ninth rank at the age of 32, and at the age of 35 this year, his vitality and blood have slipped again. It’s not as good as the usual Ninth Grade.”

"In his early years, he dared to fight hard and was not afraid of getting hurt. He made a name for himself in Heyang Fucheng, but because of his background... being able to be a public servant is already the limit."

This is the experience of an ordinary policeman in Heyang Prefecture.

Qian Qian's martial arts aptitude was already somewhat stronger than that of ordinary policemen. He could reach the eighth rank at the age of 28...but it was still not worth mentioning in front of immortal cultivators.

That Mingyue Shangxian didn't even know the existence of Qian Qian and his son, and Qian Qian had already lost half of his life for this.

"Qian Qian was absent from work a few days ago because of a stomachache. He probably doesn't know that his father in prison has passed away..."

While talking, Chen Yingxue's red and phoenix eyes were staring at Qiao Mu all the time, and she was observing Qiao Mu's reaction to Qian Qian's life experience.

"So it's better not to get Qian Qian involved in this case that may involve people from the Immortal Sect. His old father has passed away, but there is still a young girl at home."

"I think Qiao Butou is also a man of temperament. Let's forget about you and Qian Qian?"

Hearing her say this, Qiao Mu understood.

She said so much because she was afraid that Qian Qian would offend Qiao Mu, a big man with an amazing background, and cause disaster.The second is that this case is very deep, and she wants to get Qian Qian out.

"So that's how it is." Qiao Mu suddenly realized:

"Since the chief arrester has considered so much, he must have a next step?"

"good."

Boss Chen took out a small cloth bag from the cabinet, which contained a few short yellow and black cat hairs.

She was careful that day, and she didn't give all the cat fur found in the prison to Mingyue Shangxian, and kept a little in private.

There is indeed a big difference between this cat's fur and that white tiger's fur, and they can be distinguished at a glance.

Qiao Mu glanced at Chen Yingxue in surprise, then nodded with confidence:

"Since there are two kinds of physical evidence, then I can go to the door and enter the Xuantian Temple in the north of the city!"

He has already seen that Mr. Chen is also a person who does not have sand in his eyes. Isn't she taking Qian Qian out just to investigate the case thoroughly?

Knowing that this case may involve people from the Xianmen, how dare you investigate?

She doesn't have a second life.

Traveling so far, it was the first time for him to meet someone like Chen Yingxue, so he couldn't help being a little impressed.

It's just that when he said this, Chen Yingxue showed a look of surprise.

"Catcher Qiao, we are public catchers." She said in surprise:

"Gongmen arrests act quickly, so naturally they must abide by the laws of Great Yan!"

"Xuantianzong's residence is not under the control of Dayan, how can he trespass?"

"So next, we should naturally report this case and wait for the government to make a decision."

Qiao Mu was startled, and asked in a deep voice:

"You mean, report it to the government office and let the Lord Lou judge it?"

"That's right." Chen Yingxue nodded firmly, and didn't feel anything wrong.

Hearing such an answer, Qiao Mu could only remain silent.

Recalling the previous experience in Yancheng, the people of Yancheng also trusted the famous Yancheng City Lord...

This prefect Lou is also surnamed Lou!

............

at the same time.

In a certain courtyard in the city, Emperor Yonghe, with his hands behind his back, was listening to the report from the guard of Chu behind him.

After the incident in the teahouse, Emperor Yonghe looked at Qiao Mu differently, and ordered Chu Xing to let Fei Yuwei watch Qiao Mu's every move more often.

This also includes tonight's murder.

Qiao Mu was one step late, and did not capture Shangxian Mingyue on the spot.

But Chu Xing, who is a high-ranking martial artist, was different. He witnessed the whole process, including the whole process of Mingyue's tiger attack.

"Your Majesty, the spirit beasts raised by the saintesses of Xuantianzong committed murder and committed murder..."

After Chu Huwei finished his report, he did not hear Emperor Yonghe's response for a long time.

After waiting for a long time, he heard Emperor Yonghe's tired voice:

"I... know."

Chapter 79 Chapter 75

The night is already deep.

Chen Yingxue was still scribbling in the yamen, only the rustling of writing could be heard in the room.

She didn't know how long it took before she stopped writing and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Finished?"

Qiao Shu, who had been closing his eyes to rest his mind, opened his eyes at this time.

As a subordinate, he has no intention of helping Mr. Chen to write documents, and has been fishing by the side until now.

"It's finished." Mr. Chen nodded his head, and glanced at the deep night outside the window:

"Wait until dawn, then submit it to Shangfeng."

"This case is very deep, and it involves people from the immortal sect. It will take at least a few days for the government to make a decision. At that time..."

"Let's stop here." Qiao Mu interrupted her.

"...What?" President Chen was slightly surprised.

"Let's stop here, we should give up." Qiao Mu said with a blank expression:

"I just thought about it for half the night, and finally figured it out."

"This case is very deep. If we continue to investigate, there will be no good results. It's too reckless for you to report it like this."

Chen Yingxue opened her eyes slightly.

"You? You say I'm reckless?" She suddenly panicked, her chest fluctuating.

It's like when a primary school student teammate sprayed you as a primary school student in the hacking, but you couldn't type as fast as him, and couldn't spray it, which made her feel unspeakably aggrieved.

"Don't look at me, I'm not young anymore. When I'm older, I always think more about things." Qiao Mu finally remembered at this moment that he was actually a 44-year-old middle-aged person, so he said old-fashionedly:

"When I was young, I was just like you. I couldn't put sand in my eyes, but now that I'm older, I naturally understand the truth of being with the light."

"Like the light and dust, just you?" Mr. Chen looked at him inexplicably.

How could this arrester who had just arrived in office be imprisoned because of his words and slander the emperor, have anything to do with the words "harmony with light and dust"?

"It was one thing for me to talk about government affairs before, but it's another thing to stand up and arrest the people in the fairy sect now." Qiao Mu explained.

Mr. Chen was taken aback by these words, and after thinking about it, he blurted out:

"You dared to speak before because of your amazing background. Even if you go to jail for your words, you can still be taken out of the cell."

"Now that you run into someone from the fairy sect that you feel you can't afford to offend, do you shrink back?"

As soon as these words came out, it seemed that he had hit Qiao Mu's sore spot, and his face suddenly sank:

"Young people, this is called keeping a low profile, and this is called looking at the big picture."

"You are so short-sighted, you only know how to act recklessly, no wonder you are just the chief arrester of a prefecture."

Chen Yingxue was slightly taken aback:

"Didn't you contradict the Immortal Mingyue before?"

Qiao Mu said without hesitation: "Contradicting the Mingyue Shangxian is two different things from going directly to the Xuantian Temple to arrest the suspect."

"You acted so recklessly, do you think you can claim justice for those who died tragically? You are just seeking your own death!"

Hearing such words, Chen Yingxue could only remain silent.

After these few days of getting along, she originally thought that this new head catcher is actually a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

This is also the reason why she deliberately took Qian Qian out, but discussed the case with Qiao Mu.

At first he thought he was a fellow, but he did not expect to bow to Xianmen after all.

In fact, this is also human nature. Rather, it is reasonable to bow your head.

It's just that she has been a headhunter for many years, and finally met a person who seems to be defiant of power, even more ostentatious and decisive than her, so she couldn't help but hold more expectations in her heart...

She looked slightly desolate, showing a bit of fatigue:

"In that case, you should go back too."
