Chapter 37 A heavy rain

The breeze gradually picked up, and the originally light blue sky seemed to be stained with ink, and began to become densely covered with dark clouds.

In the meeting hall of the Nanhe County Government Office, Ling Changfeng was sitting leisurely on the chair of the Grand Master. The Qin County Magistrate was pacing back and forth in the hall anxiously, as if he had heard something extraordinary.

of.

"Master Qin, please stop hanging around in front of me. What I just said is true. What is in front of you now is a God-given opportunity. Now the opportunity to go further is right in front of you. You must cherish it and leave it to us.

We don't have much time." Ling Changfeng saw that Qin County Magistrate was reluctant to make a decision, and knew that what he just said really shocked him.

The opportunity for promotion in front of him is naturally gratifying, but if he makes a wrong move, his head will probably fall to the ground. He can't help but think twice about it in Qin County Magistrate.

"As long as you send a few troops to hold down Meng Ziyan for the time being, I will immediately take you to the place where Mr. Wang's body is, and capture the murderer there!" Ling Changfeng's deafening words were still in the ears of the Qin County Magistrate.

Rings.

Just before a cup of tea, Ling Changfeng summoned Magistrate Qin to discuss in the meeting hall. When Magistrate Qin arrived in a hurry, Ling Changfeng said that he already knew the real culprit of Mr. Wang's murder, and now he needed Magistrate Qin

Ling cooperated with him in carrying out secret operations, and finally said that he wanted to send people to control Meng Ziyan.

Even though Magistrate Qin admired Ling Changfeng, his words were like thunder in his mind, making Magistrate Qin's head buzz.

After thinking about it, Magistrate Qin gritted his teeth, clapped his hands, and said eagerly: "Master Ling, I will act according to your plan! But if Master Meng blames me, please bear with me."

Ling Changfeng half-smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll keep you safe. Besides, once the matter is completed, he will definitely be commended by the emperor, and Mr. Qin will have a prosperous official career in the future. Xiaolan is already waiting there.

That’s it, let’s set off without further ado.”

County Magistrate Qin thanked Ling Changfeng for his cultivation and bowed his hands. After clearing up his expression, he immediately walked outside the hall and summoned a group of confidants to patrol and book.

He first arranged for ten of his cronies to patrol and informed them that they had now learned that an assassin was going to attack Mr. Meng at night. He asked them to guard Mr. Meng in the back hall and not let anyone in. At the same time, they did not avoid danger and did not let anyone in.

Lord Meng comes out.

Then, he took more than twenty patrolmen with him and asked them to follow him to catch the murderer.

Then he called a patrolman and handed him a secret letter, asking him to go to Xu Mansion to deliver the letter immediately. After delivering the letter, he needed to keep an eye there for a while. If it rained heavily but Xu Mansion Yin was not seen coming out of the mansion,

He immediately went to the back hall of the county house and informed Mr. Meng that at the west gate of the city, County Magistrate Qin had captured the murderer.

After quickly arranging things for everyone, Magistrate Qin looked back at Ling Changfeng and said, "Master Ling, do you think there is anything wrong with this arrangement?"

Ling Changfeng nodded and said: "Very good, Mr. Qin, your arrangements have been very well arranged. Let's set off immediately. Oh, by the way, I forgot to remind you. Everyone, prepare your rain gear and raincoats. It's not raining lightly.

.”

So after everyone took orders one by one, they filed out.

...

In a certain mansion in Luoyang, incense and candles are being burned at this moment, as if a mysterious ceremony is being held. It is already raining heavily outside the house, thunder is rolling, but there is a solemn silence inside the house.

There was an open coffin placed in the hall, and inside the coffin was a person wrapped in rosin. This person turned out to be Lord Wang, whom the court had been looking for for a long time!

It has been seven days since his murder, but the body has not changed much. If it had not been sealed with rosin, it would have rotted by now in such a sweltering heat.

A man in black took the lead, followed by seven people also in black tights. He muttered something in his mouth with a very respectful expression. After he finished chanting, he pricked his fingers and drew on the forehead of Mr. Wang.

There are several "*" characters. I don't know what they are used for.

After continuing to perform a series of worship services, everyone sang loudly in the language of the Western Regions. After the words were finished, Mr. Wang's body was wrapped in oilcloth and carried to a carriage.

Seeing that everyone had finished their work, the leader said: "It's going to rain heavily today. This is a God-given opportunity. Let's take advantage of this opportunity and leave the city immediately! Dark Star, this time you will pretend to be a coachman and accompany me and the Holy Spirit to the west gate of the city."

Let’s go! The rest of the people can just go there and wait on their own. If there is anything unusual, be sure to remind us!”

"Yes, sir!" A group of men in black responded and went out one after another.

Only the man named Dark Star remained. The leading middle-aged man threw him a set of clothes dressed as a coachman. After Dark Star dressed up, he looked around him and found nothing unusual, and said in a deep voice

Said: "This time I have to be very energetic!" After saying that, he walked into the carriage compartment,

Dark Star drove the carriage and rushed towards the city gate in the heavy rain. After a while, he disappeared and disappeared into the rain curtain.

"I've been watching for so long, but I haven't seen Mr. Xu come out. Now it's raining harder and harder. I don't know if Mr. Xu is in the house. Forget it, let's go back and inform Mr. Meng." An ordinary-looking patrolman stood across the room.

From afar, he looked at Xu Fuyin's mansion and murmured to himself.

....

"Bang" a crisp sound of broken porcelain was heard.

At this moment, Meng Ziyan, who was under house arrest in the name of being protected by the Qin County magistrate, was filled with anger. If he hadn't been concerned about his face, he would have scolded his mother by now.

"Humph, you Ling Changfeng! Now that I have given you such a big credit, you have given it away. Since you want to put this credit on the head of a small county magistrate, aren't you afraid that he won't be able to bear it?

"Meng Ziyan was in the back hall of the county government office. Originally, he was just taking a rest here after lunch. Unexpectedly, after being awakened by the thunder, he was actually placed under house arrest!

The chief prosecutor in charge of Si Tianjian's case was not at the scene of the murderer's arrest, and although Ling Changfeng, who was responsible for the supervisory duties, had gone, Meng Ziyan would definitely say that the Qin County Magistrate invited him to go with him.

In this way, if Magistrate Qin solves such a major case, the emperor will definitely reward him. Ling Changfeng has no merit, but he has a reputation for being incompetent at this moment.

Although he will not be punished, I am afraid that he will not gain much benefit from this. When he thought of this, Meng Ziyan became extremely angry.

"Master Meng, I am here to take Master Meng to arrest the criminal according to Master Qin's instructions!" While Meng Ziyan was still sulking, the voice of a patrolman came from outside the door.
