Chapter 127 He who knows the current affairs is a hero
"Thank you, the Queen Mother! Thank you, the Queen Mother!" Liu Xiaochun reacted immediately and kowtowed several times to express his gratitude.
Yuan Che frowned and agreed, "It's good this way. The queen mother can rest assured and Supervisor Liu can be exempted from punishment."
Liu Xiaochun walked out sweating profusely, and Sheng Shaoqing grabbed Yuan Che and taught him a lesson before he was done.
Sheng Shaoqing, who was extremely tired, fell asleep, and Lu Qingfeng rushed to Fengchun with a lawsuit on his head.
Ms. Cui had just found out what he had said, and he was so dazed that he could only understand one sentence: He must be responsible for all his previous actions.
What did he do before?
Why can't he understand what Miss Cui is saying?
If An Ning hadn't interrupted Cui's questioning, he might not have been able to escape for a while.
After returning from the moon, Lu Qingfeng conveyed the Queen Mother's instructions to Xia Yuhuai. Xia Yuhuai just waved his hand to let Lu Qingfeng go to rest first. He sat in his original position and looked at the letter paper and medicine pot with only a few words on the table.
Stayed all night.
The next day, Xia Yuhuai sent someone to invite the Tianshi envoy from the Tiancai Hui to visit him.
As soon as the envoy wearing a black robe and a red ribbon appeared in the front yard, there was quite a commotion in the county government office.
"Isn't he the one Mr. Li kicked out before? Why did Mr. Xia invite him back as soon as he arrived?"
"Could it be that Lord Xia has also converted to the Stone God Sect?"
The yamen servants gradually gathered together. The yamen servant who was sweeping the floor couldn't stand it anymore and kept waving the broom in his hand and said, "Don't look at it, stop looking at it!"
Suddenly, the courtyard was filled with dust.
"You! Lift your feet!"
"And you!"
The other people immediately shouted back, "Li Da, just sweep your floor properly, what do we care about what we do?!"
"You guys are gathered here, how do you want me to sweep the floor properly?"
"Hey," someone chuckled contemptuously, "When Mr. Li was here, you could barely be considered to have the same clan name. Now that Mr. Li is gone, you don't know who to offend if you are still here.
.”
"You!" Li Da opened his cloudy eyes and wanted to argue with the person who was mocking him. After thinking about it, he gave up and switched to the other side to continue sweeping his floor.
Seeing that he had the upper hand, the man became even more reluctant.
He stepped on Li Da's broom and said provocatively, "Li Da, let me ask you, what did you do on the night of the assassination?"
"Don't say again that you had a bad stomach and went to relieve yourself that day."
"I asked several brothers. You were not at the county office that night, and it was not your day off that day. Where did you go?!"
Li Da only sneered, looking at the man with a sharper look, but still refused to say anything.
Several people nearby were also attracted to the matter. They were not curious as to why Mr. Xia invited the Sky Stone Envoy. They were only interested in the dispute in the courtyard.
"Okay! I have long suspected that those assassins came here under strange circumstances. How did they know the layout of the county government, and how did they directly get into Mr. Li's bedroom? By the time we heard the noise and rushed over, it was already too late. It turned out to be
There is a traitor like you!"
Li Da raised his head and looked coldly into the eyes of the person who questioned him, and said sonorously, "Hu Xun, if you have evidence, you can just go and expose me in front of Mr. Xia, so why bother here?"
"You! Do you really dare not take me seriously?"
"Brothers, can you all testify for me!"
Hu Xun turned his head to look at the people who had been supporting him before, but those people shrank their necks and refused to answer.
"You cowards!"
They didn't hesitate to talk about Li Da's weirdness behind his back, but when they were asked to come forward, they hid further away than the other!
"I'm going to look for Master Xia now!"
Seeing that Hu Xun didn't seem to be faking it, those people quickly stopped him and advised, "Brother Hu, wait a minute!"
"Look at your donkey temper! You must have drunk too much last night and didn't wake up!"
Those people took Hu Xun to a corner and kept trying to persuade him, "Why are you so anxious?!"
"Didn't you see his arrogance?"
One of them whispered in Hu Xun's ear, "Have you forgotten how weird Li Da is? Aren't you afraid of provoking him like this?"
Hu Xun immediately became anxious, "Am I afraid of him? What am I afraid of?"
The man really couldn't reason with him, so he had to take Xia Yuhuai out and said, "What's more, Mr. Xia is meeting guests, so how can he have time to meddle in such noisy matters!"
"Hmph! What kind of ghost guest did you see?"
"I think this Master Xia is also a coward who cannot be cowarded anymore. But in just two days, he has forgotten why Master Li died and is so anxious to please that bad guy!"
Those people quickly covered Hu Xun's mouth to stop him from talking nonsense, "What are you talking about?!"
Hu Xun was so angry that his eyes widened and he said, "Master Li's body is still cold, have you forgotten how kind he was to you before?! You have forgotten this bloody feud?!"
Those people waved their hands and said, "How is that possible?"
"Could it be that people just want to go out of their way to make tea? Now that you see Mr. Xia fawning over Tiancai Hui, you are going to change your mind and join that evil society?!"
Those people said in unison, "That's even more impossible!"
"You guys know each other."
Hu Xun pushed away the person in front of him, walked up to Li Da and said angrily in a suppressed voice, "In the past, Master Li thought that you were both people with the surname Li, or maybe related to your ancestors, so he treated you with kindness.
, but when the accident happened that night, we were all there to save you, only you, only you! Your whereabouts are unknown, and you slipped back from nowhere the next day. Now I have no evidence to prove that you are related to this matter, but
You'd better hope I don't catch you."
Hu Xun paused and said bitterly, "If I find out that you are involved in your murder, I will kill you!"
After saying that, Hu Xun left angrily.
"What are you all doing here?"
Lu Qingfeng, who had been listening in the corner, suddenly walked out of the darkness and asked everyone, but his eyes were focused on Li Da.
Li Da ignored Hu Xun and just swept his own land.
When everyone saw that something was wrong, they would run away after being accused.
Lu Qingfeng had just received an order from Xia Yuhuai to come to the county government office to find the government official named Li.
Yesterday, the old farmer Li Shisan took Li Xiaobao's money bag and was about to leave. As soon as he turned around, he was stopped by Lu Qingfeng who had been hiding in the crowd. Before Lu Qingfeng could ask a few questions, Li Shisan threw away the money with a guilty conscience.
Bao Saya ran away.
Lu Qingfeng was worried about Xia Yuhuai's safety and stopped chasing after him, but the money bag was left where it was, so he had to put it away for safekeeping.
This morning he made some inquiries and found out that the yamen surnamed Li who lived in Tiancai Town and had two sons was Li Da. According to the yamen who lived across the street from him in the past, Li Da had a strange and solitary personality, and no one wanted to talk to him on weekdays.
He moved to the most remote woodshed in the county government office to live alone.
Today happened to be his turn to clean the yard, and he should be in the front yard at the moment, so he took advantage of the situation and found it, but he didn't expect to hear this half of the show.
"Are you Li Da?"
Li Da turned around in response, bowed and said in salute, "To my lord, I am just the villain. I wonder what the lord has to do with the villain?"
Lu Qingfeng looked at Li Dahe's completely different quiet look just now and realized that all Taoists really have two faces.
"Nothing, I just came to find out about Mr. Li's previous assassination."
Li Da's expression suddenly turned cold, and then returned to normal in an instant. Lu Qingfeng thought that he had not had a good night's rest, and his eyes were dazzled. Li Da's change of expression was faster than many people's.
Li Da frowned and said, "Did you hear some rumors?"
Lu Qingfeng did not comment and just asked, "Do you still remember what happened that night?"
Li Da shook his head, "The villain had a bad stomach that night and squatted in the hut for a long time. When he came back, the office was already in a mess. The villain was assigned to put out the fire in the outer courtyard, so what happened in the inner courtyard?
, the villain doesn’t know anything about it.”
Lu Qingfeng pointed to the direction in which Hu Xun left and said, "Then why would he say that you were related to Master Li's murder?"
"Sir, Sir, Mr. Li had taken great care of the villain before, so Hu. Hu Xun felt resentful."
"Later, the villain was supposed to be on duty that night when the master was assassinated. However, the villain was delayed for a long time because he had a bad stomach. This made everyone unable to rush. Master Li was assassinated and died. The villain is indeed responsible, but he has three urgent needs. The villain
I really can’t control it.”
Lu Qingfeng felt a little strange, "I heard that Mr. Li took good care of you, but why do I think your reaction to Mr. Li's murder was mediocre?"
Li Da smiled bitterly and said, "People who eat all kinds of grains will always be born, old, sick and die. What's more, the villain is already at this age, and he already has a very indifferent view of life and death. Although Master Li said that his death was tragic, in other words
, Mr. Li is now on his way to heaven early to enjoy the blessings of an immortal."
Lu Qingfeng was shocked by Li Da's remarks, but he heard Li Da continue, "To be honest with you, I have already prepared a coffin at my house. I just wait for the day when I die, so I can go to the west as soon as possible to get rid of this problem."
What about worldly worries?"
Lu Qingfeng knew that Li Da was weird before he came, but he didn't expect to know that what others said was true until he met the real person.
How can ordinary people be so indifferent to their own life and death?!
Li Da lowered his head and caught a glimpse of the money bag hanging on Lu Qingfeng's waist. His expression suddenly tightened and he murmured in a low voice, "My lord, this is the money bag."
Lu Qingfeng remembered Xia Yuhuai's instructions, took off the money bag and said with a smile, "I went shopping with Mr. Xia yesterday, and I picked this up on the road. It seems that they are made of the best materials, and the embroidery patterns are also very clever.
, not many people can use such materials in this rich spring, if one day I meet the owner and return it to him, it can also form a good relationship."
"What, do you know the owner?"
Li Dalian shook his head and waved his hands and said, "No, I don't know you. The villain looks very familiar at first glance. I just took a closer look and didn't recognize him. It's common for villains to get dazzled when they get older."
"If the adults don't give instructions, the little ones will go and sweep other yards."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Da ran away without a trace.
Lu Qingfeng looked at the half-swept front yard in front of him, and after a moment's thought, he immediately chased after Li Da in the direction he ran away.
In the inner courtyard.
Xia Yuhuai invited the masked Tianshi envoy into the room, and called for some good tea. He smiled and said, "Why doesn't the envoy show his true face to others? He has already entered the inner courtyard, and there are confidants on both sides.
Why don't you treat each other honestly so that I can admire the envoy's grace?"
The envoy said proudly, "We are all the chief envoys of the Stone God. We never show our true colors to others in order to better serve the Stone God. Therefore, I can only refuse your invitation. Please bear with me."
Xia Yuhuai resisted the urge to complain, but was she really pretending to you?!
"I wonder why you invited me here today?"
Xia Yuhuai paused and said, "I was an official in Xiayi before, and I have long heard of the famous Tiancai Hui. When I first came to Fengchun, I also wanted to pay a visit to the famous Tiancai Hui, but I was delayed by some chores before.
That’s it”
The messenger smiled slightly and said directly, "Your Excellency must have been delayed by the affairs of my predecessor, Mr. Li."
Xia Yuhuai did not expect that the envoy would dare to go straight to the point, and his words would be more direct than him.
The envoy met Xia Yuhuai's gaze and said decisively, "There are rumors in the outside world that the Stone God punished Lord Li and took his life. However, I can responsibly tell you that Lord Li's death has nothing to do with the Tiancai Society."
"oh?"
"The Stone God is compassionate and always helps the world, so how can he wantonly punish others? What's more, Mr. Li died in a man-made disaster, not a natural disaster. Am I right?"
Xia Yuhuai said solemnly, "After that night, I ordered the news to be blocked. How did the envoy know about it?"
"Master Xia, have you ever heard a saying: There is no fire contained in this paper?"
"So, Mr. Xia, feel free to go and investigate. If this matter has even the slightest connection with Tiancai, I don't need to wait for Shi Shen to be here.
Xia Yuhuai frowned subconsciously, and the envoy continued to ask, "Other than that, does your Excellency have anything else to do?"
"You can't be asking me to drink this tea, right?"
The envoy shook the tea cup in front of him, took a closer look at the quality of the tea, and said with a smile, "No servant in the envoy's house would drink this kind of tea."
"you!"
The messenger said apologetically, "Master Xia, it's not that I deliberately mocked you. This is the fact. How can I dare to tell lies in front of the Stone God?"
"Can the Stone God tell you that this world belongs to the emperor, not your Stone God?"
"Master Xia, please be careful, if Shi Shenru hears this, he will be unhappy."
Xia Yuhuai sneered and said, "Since the envoy said that the Stone God is compassionate, what if I say so?"
The messenger shrugged and said, "It won't really matter, but this position, sir... I have to give in a little bit."
Xia Yuhuai thought of the Queen Mother's letter and had no choice but to swallow his anger and soften his tone and said, "Messenger, it's better not to joke around. I know very well that those who deal with current affairs are heroes, so..."
The envoy then became slightly more interested and asked, "Do you really want to join our Tiancai Club?"
Xia Yuhuai nodded heavily.
The envoy looked at Xia Yuhuai's face and said, "But judging from your expression, I don't really want to join you?"
