Parading the streets and beheading people at Caishikou, it was extremely lively, with huge crowds of people. Following Bai Yu's order, the executioner's ghost-headed knife slowly raised up and slashed down suddenly, causing blood to splash and the head to fall down.
Some people who had been bullied by Zhang Qicai shouted "Okay" with tears in their eyes, while others whispered.
"This guy molested Lord He's wife a few years ago. Before Lord He could settle the score with him, he dared to smash up Lord He's shop. This completely angered Lord He and cost him his life."
"He was arrested yesterday, and the execution documents were approved today. He was taken directly to Caishikou and beheaded. I'm afraid the owner behind the Tianxiang Yulu shop is not just as simple as Mr. He. He has a scary background."...
Bai Yu returned home and told Tao Yulian that it was rare to see a smile on her pretty face. Different from the forced smile she showed a few days ago, this smile from the heart looked even more beautiful.
During lunch, a young boy of 11 or 12 years old came into the courtyard carrying a bag. Tao Yulian quickly got up and walked over, pulling him to the dining table and saying, "Fancheng, call daddy quickly."
The little boy was stunned and looked at Bai Yu blankly. Bai Yu responded with a fatherly smile.
"Silly boy, please call me daddy."
Tao Yulian was anxious and looked at Bai Yu cautiously, as if worried that he would be angry, "Your father has finished his errands for the court and has returned from Beihuang."
The little boy's eyes were red and tears were rolling around him. He pursed his lips and hesitated for a long time before calling out "Dad" with difficulty.
Bai Yu stood up with a smile, walked up to him, raised his hand and touched his head, "Hey, dad is such a handsome man."
The elder man, Tao Yulian, blushed slightly, which obviously meant that he wanted her to have more children.
Bai Yu pulled the young boy and asked him to sit down and eat quickly.
After getting acquainted with Bai Yu, the young boy He Fancheng could call him daddy smoothly. It was obvious that this child had a cheerful personality and was always asking questions about the wild beasts in the Northern Wilderness.
How could I know! Bai Yu had no choice but to deal with it casually.
He Fancheng was so excited that he almost jumped up when he learned that his father had been promoted, opened Tianxiang Yulu, and was granted the title of baronet.
But soon he looked gloomy again, "Unfortunately, this title is not hereditary and I cannot inherit it."
Good guy, such a good guy, my dear father, I am still so young, and you are thinking about inheriting the title? You are really filial to your father! The corners of Bai Yu's mouth twitched.
Tao Yulian hurriedly stretched out her hand and lightly hit her son on the shoulder, "You kid, you are talking about unlucky things. Your father earned this title. You can study in the academy to get whatever future you want."
He Fancheng smacked his lips, disapprovingly. How could studying hard be as fast as inheriting the legacy of his father's generation?
Bai Yu talked about the Yuci Mansion. He meant that the family would move to the imperial city. He Fancheng was very excited and raised his hands in approval. However, Tao Yulian said that she was used to living here and was familiar with the neighbors.
I'm afraid I won't get used to moving to the Imperial City.
After careful consideration, Bai Yu decided not to move in just one second. Who made Tao Yulian so beautiful? Of course, making Tao Yulian's life comfortable is the most important thing. As for He Fancheng's opinion, he directly
Choose to ignore.
He Fancheng came back and stayed for one night, and returned to the academy the next day carrying rice and living expenses. He thought that his family was very rich now, so he wanted to ask for more living expenses. Tao Yulian disagreed, and the mother and son quarreled until Bai Yu spoke.
, Tao Yulian just gave me dozens of extra coins.
"Stingy."
He Fancheng reached out his hand to take it with red eyes, turned around and left with the rice on his back.
Tao Yulian's autumn eyes were a little worried, "Master, you will spoil the child like this. What if something happens to you?"
Bai Yu smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm here. If you get into some trouble and suffer some hardships, you'll grow up."
If you have money, it's easy to do things. Tianxiang Yulu was quickly decorated and reopened for business. Business is still booming.
The three branches in the Imperial City are also under construction at the same time and will be open for business soon.
Chang Jiuyan took care of things in the shop, and Gu Fei took care of things in the workshop. For a while, Bai Yu was free.
"It's not good if you don't go to the Criminal Department for too long. I have to go to the Criminal Department tomorrow to check the numbers and pick up a case to follow."
Besides taking the case, he remembered something.
When they were in Linfu County, the young Jinyiwei Qianhu said that according to the above, the exiles would not have to go to Beihuang, but would be temporarily detained in prison and would be sent to build the imperial mausoleum.
"It's been a month or so. Those exiled prisoners should have been sent to build the emperor's mausoleum. I don't know how Lin Ping'an is doing. Find a time to visit him and bring him a piece of soap locust, a dozen sesame seed cakes and a few
A bottle of medicinal wine is also good."
Of course, Bai Yu will not visit Lin Ping'an in his current capacity. He will use the Minion character card. The case has been settled long ago and there is no longer any investigation from above. There is no need to worry.
The next day.
Bai Yu came to the Punishment Department early, clicked the numbers, and waited for the king to arrive.
Chief Wang came, smiled and asked his servant to make two cups of tea and bring them in, "I'm here to follow up on the case."
Bai Yu smiled and said, "The last case has been settled. I have calculated the time and thought it is time to follow up on another case..."
"very good."
Manager Wang expressed his approval of this subordinate's "hard-working" professional attitude. It seems that he is not a fool. Such subordinates are the most worry-free.
Bai Yu asked, "Are there any cases related to monsters?"
Manager Wang frowned, "Why are you asking this?"
"I haven't moved my muscles for a long time, and my hands feel raw. I want to follow up on a case related to monsters to practice my skills. Of course, I don't want strong monsters. Just have a first-level one."
Bai Yu explained, "Also, the lower officials will encounter cases related to monsters sooner or later, so I thought it would be a good idea to give it a try first."
The last time he ate the ungraded monster snake meat, he tasted the sweetness. The minion character had reached 65% experience and was almost ready to advance.
Manager Wang feels a toothache.
He had just praised this subordinate as "diligent and sensible", but he suddenly became confused.
There is no good choice to practice with. You have to practice with monsters. Monsters are very dangerous, even the lowest monsters.
Moreover, since he is from the Right Minister's side, of course he will take care of the "Secretary of the Right Minister" and let other ministers follow up on monster-related cases, isn't that good?
Seeing Bai Yu's insistence, Director Wang had no choice but to take a case tied with an eye-catching red string from the desk and hand it to Bai Yu, "I'd like to say it again, if you find danger, just let others rush to it. You are just following the case.
It’s not an investigation!”
"Thank you for your concern, sir."
Bai Yu smiled apologetically while opening the case file and flipping through it.
This case happened in a small town in Jinhe County. For unknown reasons, people in the small town kept dying of illness one after another.
The Jinhe County Yamen sent detectives to investigate several times, but could not find any reason. After returning, he fell ill.
People suspected that a monster was causing trouble, but the Jinhe County Yamen could not find the monster, so the case was shelved and there was no progress for several months.
People in the town were very frightened and wanted to move to other places. But the strange thing was that once they left the town, they got sick faster. This frightened the people in the town and no one dared to escape.
Another point is that the Jinhe County Magistrate personally went to the town to check. Although no monster was found, he was fine and did not get sick.
From this point, it can be seen that the level of the monster is not high, and it cannot help the seventh-level county magistrate.
After reading it, Bai Yu felt relieved, put the case back on the table, said goodbye with a smile, and left.
