Chapter 346: The Flying Pigeon Delivers a Message

Long Lin looked at the trembling county magistrate's wife on the ground.

"Listen, your husband, the county magistrate, has died outside."

"He has done many evil things and deserves to die, and as his wife, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape death either."

Long Lin's words were not harsh.

But when the woman heard it, her whole body immediately began to tremble crazily.

"Sir, spare your life, spare your life, it's all his fault. I really don't know anything."

"My lord, please be noble and let me, a weak woman, go."

"Sir, whatever you want to know, I will definitely tell you."

Long Lin was completely dumbfounded by the woman's transformation.

I have never seen such a shameless person. Is she a weak woman?

He thought this fierce woman would say something generous, but unexpectedly, she just pushed her away.

What is this called? When disaster strikes, we all fly away.

"Very good, you are very smart. How did your husband become the county magistrate? What did he do for a living?"

The woman thought for a moment and then spoke immediately.

"Sir, I know this. My husband was originally from a wealthy family in this county. He had many cattle and sheep in his family and was very wealthy."

"After marrying my husband, I don't know who he contacted. Then when he came back, he sold his cattle and sheep, and then left with all his belongings."

"He told me that with this money, he could directly become the county magistrate."

"I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect it to be true."

Long Lin was completely shocked when he heard this. The official he bought it from? A big breeder?

Damn it, this bullshit county magistrate actually used to be a sheepherder.

"What happened next? Did he say where he bought the official position?"

The woman immediately shook her head firmly.

"Sir, I really don't know about this, and he never said anything about it. I was very happy at the time and didn't ask him about it."

"What else do you know about him? This alone is not enough to save your life."

Long Lin continued to threaten, wanting to get more information.

When the woman heard this, she immediately panicked and started thinking immediately.

But after thinking about it, the woman looked confused.

"Sir, apart from that, there is really nothing else. Oh, by the way, I have never had children. My husband snatched a few women and kept them in side houses."

Long Lin was shocked. The county magistrate actually had a physical disease. No wonder he didn't see a child of the county magistrate.

If it is this woman's problem, then it is impossible for the five women before. They all have problems. It must be the county magistrate's problem.

"Do you have family in the county?"

The woman nodded immediately after hearing this.

"Yes, sir. My family doesn't know about it, sir."

"I know that if you return home temporarily, I will call you at any time if you need it. Don't talk nonsense after you get out. Your life may be in danger at any time."

When the woman heard that she could go home, she was so excited that she couldn't care less.

"Of course, sir, please rest assured."

"Take her away."

"Ah...Sir, can I bring something?"

"Yes, you can bring your things and leave your head."

Brush... The woman gave up decisively and followed the Imperial Guard who beat her.

Long Lin sneered and waved his hand.

Not long after, the imperial guards came out of the room carrying two large boxes.

Arriving in front of it, the Forbidden Army opened the box directly.

Long Lin looked towards the box and showed a smile.

"How much is this?"

"Go back to Your Highness, one thousand taels of silver and one hundred taels of gold."

"Very good, give them all to Fu Di."

The Imperial Guard nodded, carried the silver, and walked directly outside.

After dealing with this, Long Lin stretched his body and looked satisfied.

He also thought that he could get tens of thousands of taels of silver directly from the magistrate's house. It seemed that he had a rich imagination.

"Yu'er, are you hungry? Let's go get something to eat."

Yudie nodded, and the two of them walked outside and left here.

After the meal, Long Lin did not rest and came to the county government lobby.

Fu Di has been dealing with county government affairs, and Long Lin wanted to see the progress.

"Fu Di, have you gained anything?"

Fu Di raised his head, still thinking about something.

"Your Highness, there is still some money in the treasury. Together with what you just sent, it is enough to deal with the corpses outside."

"I have arranged for people to call the family members to claim the body and collect the compensation from the county government."

"I believe that with this money, the people will be able to accept it."

Long Lin nodded, showing a hint of pain. Without that bullshit county magistrate, I'm afraid those officers and soldiers wouldn't have died tragically.

"Fu Di, I'm afraid there are countless unjust imprisonments in this county government. Next, I will work with you to thoroughly investigate the entire county government's cells."

"The guilty must be dealt with impartially, and the innocent must be given justice to the people."

"During this period, you will serve as the magistrate of this county and handle all affairs in this county."

After hearing this, Fu Di immediately stood up and nodded respectfully.

"Your Highness, please rest assured, I will take care of everything."

"This county government no longer looks like a court government office. There are no regulations required by the court at all."

"It's exactly that county magistrate who is doing whatever he wants here."

"Your Highness, it is impossible that the county magistrate above is unaware of this matter, and the governor above is also likely to be aware of it."

Long Lin nodded. In these two states, the entire officialdom was probably in darkness, and there was probably not a single good person.

"Fu Di, deal with the matter in front of you first."

"I feel that it is difficult for us to make any progress at the moment. A dead horse is a living doctor. I decided to mobilize some imperial doctors to come here."

"Try it and see if you can restore those people's memories."

Fu Di nodded immediately.

"Your Highness, this is a good idea. Although the hope is slim, there is still some hope."

Long Lin nodded, and when he saw officers and soldiers approaching, he turned and left.

Fu Di was obviously busy with something. He felt that Fu Di could handle the county affairs properly.

After leaving, Long Lin wrote a letter and arranged for the Imperial Guard to use flying pigeons to deliver the letter to the palace in the capital.

This letter is a letter he wrote to his tenth brother Long Ye.

...

In the capital, Long Ye looked at the letter in his hand and showed a trace of doubt.

In the letter, everything about his sixth brother's trip to Shizhou was written down in detail.

It took a total of three pigeons to deliver these letters back.

After reading the letter, he completely understood what his sixth brother meant.

On the one hand, Sixth Brother consulted him about his ideas, and on the other hand, he hoped to send several capable doctors to Shizhou to help Sixth Brother.

Putting down the letter, Tatsuno began to think.

Tatsuno also felt that some of Fu Di's ideas were very reasonable.

But if this is the case, what will the people behind it do?

This was something his sixth brother wanted to know, and it was also something that made him think.

Tatsuno banged his head and was alone in a daze.

Outside the gate of the mansion, Xiaocao was holding a huge jar in both hands.

The mouth of the jar was steaming outside in the night.

Xiaocao had a free hand and knocked lightly on the door.

When the door opened, a forbidden soldier took one look and immediately smiled.

"It's Miss Xiaocao. It's so late. Why are you here in person? Do you need me to do it for you?"

Seeing Xiaocao struggling to carry the jar, the imperial guards were still very enthusiastic.

"No, I can just take it in myself."

"Okay then, Miss Xiaocao, please go in."

Xiaocao nodded, hugged the jar, and walked directly inside.
