Bang!

The elderly soldier tapped the young soldier's shoulder with his scabbard and reminded in a deep voice: "Don't gossip behind his back, be careful that the county magistrate heard it, and transfer you from the city gate to the mass grave to guard the grave."

"Hehe, the performance assessment of An County Magistrate An is the last place every year. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be transferred from Jiangnan Road next year and go to another remote place to be the county magistrate. We are the positions inherited by our ancestors, so we are afraid that he will do something."

That being said, but the young soldier still stopped talking about this topic.

The elderly soldier looked through the crack in the door and looked at the direction of the increasingly brightening mass grave, thinking to himself: Whether County Magistrate An wants to vent his anger or collect the body, he can only go for a waste of time.

The mass grave in Laian County is three miles north of the official road.

It is said that at the beginning of the founding of the Great Learning Kingdom, the rebel army killed thousands of officers and soldiers here, forming a snare of thousands of people. Every night, no one dared to live here within a radius of ten miles.

Later, the world was peaceful, but there were also many refugees who had no return to their roots in the fallen leaves. In order to avoid corpses, they were asked to bury them here. Gradually, a group of people who were ignorant of their identities and were not exposed to incense gathered.

Mass grave.

Later, the unclaimed bodies disposed of by the government will be thrown here. No one will bury them on the spot for the dead prisoners. The wild dogs and jackals who smelled the fishy smell gathered here and came to search every night.

Eat meat.

Gradually, as long as the mass graves and nearby nights enter, no ordinary people dare to approach except for the strict guards or caravans passing by at night.

When Jiachu arrived on a horse, half a mile away from the mass grave corpse group, the old horse under his crane, no matter how he drove it, he no longer continued to move forward, constantly stumbled around in place, and was finally driven away

I was anxious and even wanted to throw Jia Chu off.

"Useless waste."

Jia Chu's palm was accumulating strength, and he made a heavy palm to the horse's head.

Lao Ma immediately turned his eyes and his limbs turned forward. When Jia Chu jumped off the horse's back, he fell to the ground with a bang.

County Magistrate An, who was following behind slowly, was shocked to see this and realized that the people in the King of Jin's Mansion, whether they were An Hou or Yi Jie's guards, had no rules and regulations on their mood.

Seeing the old horse lying on the ground vomiting blood, County Magistrate An couldn't help but feel excited. He quickly got off the horse and trotted forward, and took the initiative to ask: "Guardian A, what are we going to do?"

As soon as the magistrate of County An opened his mouth, a fishy smell poured into his mouth and nose.

But he didn't dare to cover his mouth and nose, so he could only hold his breath and wait for Jia Chu to issue the order.

Jia Chu did not answer, but instead looked around the yamen runners who followed behind him.

"Have all the runners from the county yamen come to gather?"

The magistrate of An County looked at Zhaomo.

The Zhaoma Officer who rushed over with the second group of people quickly replied: "Except for those who are not on duty, the rest are here."

"The day before yesterday, who had paraded the body of the mastermind behind the robber gang outside the city and stood up."

When A first mentioned the four words "master behind the scenes", he inevitably aggravated his tone.

He was just thinking about the true identity of the mastermind behind the scenes, and the punishment he would suffer when he was about to face failure in his mission.

But the people from the county magistrate and the county government misunderstood what he meant.

"A guard wanted to find the body of the mastermind behind the scenes, pull out the corpse and whip it to relieve his dissatisfaction?"

County Magistrate An thoughtfully that it must be that Prince Jin had learned about this and wanted to use this to express his opinion, which shows that Prince Jin was concerned about Daxing.

Although he came to the mass grave at night just to express his opinion and was a bit troublesome, if this thing can bring benefits to the Prince of Jin, he will be useful.

“…”

Jia Chu didn't want to speak.

He was worried that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would not help but scold the stupid county magistrate An to death.

County Magistrate An did not notice this, but instead urged the nearby officials to come.

"Zhu Zhaomo, tell me quickly, where is the body of the mastermind behind the scenes now?"

He did not stay in the county government office, but he was in charge of the county government office's yamen runners' dispatch, so he naturally knew the case.

Zhu Zhaomo, who was named, heard this question and took a look at the mass grave that was still dark in front of him even though the torches were lit up around him. Thinking of the consequences of the mastermind behind him, he felt a little unlucky, so he simply pointed at the day before yesterday and pulled it.

The men who paraded the streets.

"You talk to Guardian A."

When he was idle, he came to the burial to find the body. Zhu Zhaomo was not like the magistrate of County An, but was the king of Jin, so he naturally refused to spoil Jiachu.

The three yamen runners who were pointed out took a step forward, and the oldest of the three spoke first: "After the street parade that day, until the evening, the prefect Jiang said that he would personally stare at the body of the mastermind behind the scenes and spoil the body.

In the wilderness, where wild dogs and wolves appear, we will serve as a warning to Laian County, so that no more robbers will happen."

"He dares!"

Jia Chu suddenly shouted, scaring everyone.

The old yamen runner who spoke was even more silent. He hurriedly stopped, but he muttered in his heart, not knowing what was going on to offend Jia Chu.

"Guardian A, are you scolding the mastermind behind the scenes?"

County Magistrate An beat him up and pointed his finger at the mass grave.

"Everyone is dead, you can calm down."

It’s because people die that they are so arrogant!

Before Jia Chu found the body, he could not reveal the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes, not to mention that at this time, he still had a trace of luck in his heart.

What if the mastermind behind the scenes is not the little marquis, but the guard stand-in.

The little marquis is not stupid either. How could he go on the battlefield and kill people in person? At most, he plans behind the scenes.

As soon as he thought of this, he raised his head to the old yamen runner: "Continue, where did the magistrate Jiang throw the body?"

It was just dark, and the wild dogs and wolves had not gathered all around. Jia Chu was not familiar with the place, so he really couldn't tell where was the most dangerous place.

When the old yamen runner heard this question, his expression became subtle.

"That...Prince Jiang really planned to throw the body away in the wilderness, and it would be fine if it was taken away by a wild dog and wolf pack. But when Prison Jiang brought the body to this mass grave, there were people out of righteous indignation.

, poured fuel on the body again, and burned it again."

What?!

This time, not only was Jia Chu shocked, but even County Magistrate An was shocked.

After reacting, County Magistrate An cursed in pain: "Since you are in charge of the prisoner's body, you must take care of it. What's the matter if you let the people burn it again?"

"Sir, you didn't participate in the fire that night. You don't know that the robbers had damaged hundreds of acres of rice fields in the east of the city. The rice grains were so baked that they could not even feed the chickens. Thanks to the Renyi of the Prefect Jiang, he said that the loss was lost.

The county government is responsible for the taxation, and the compensation for farmers comes from Jinling Mansion. Otherwise, those people not only want to burn the bodies, but even the houses of An Mansion want to burn them. They say that they are all the county magistrate, and it is because they are late to put out the fire for a long time.

It caused them to suffer serious losses."

County Magistrate An was secretly accused of this treacherously and speechless.

really.

If he was in the county town, he would definitely be unwilling to put out the fire. Anyway, he was not the one who rushed to the fire to put out the fire, but as long as he was there afterwards, his reputation would be his.

But who told Anhou that no matter what happened in An County, he would avoid it.

Thinking of this, County Magistrate An couldn't help but ask again, where is An Hou and why did he let him do these things.

But Jia Chu gritted his teeth and asked, "Then what? Where is the body that was burned again?"

"Hang."

What?!

Jia Chu was stunned.

County Magistrate An was also stunned.

What does Yang mean?
