The handsome man was slightly startled when he heard these words, and then asked: "Did you kill your wife with your own hands, brother?"
Liu Qun's words became more vague and he said: "What kind of sister-in-law? Then... then... she is just a stinky bitch. Can't you believe me after hearing this? I... hiccup... I tell you, I will stab that bitch to death."
The knife is still buried under the poplar tree outside the east gate of the city. When you get out, I will show you what courage is!... Isn't it just... Isn't it just... sending someone to death..."
As he spoke, Liu Qun fell headfirst, drunk as mud...
That handsome man was naturally Xu Qing. At this moment, he stood up, clapped his hands and looked at the clerk beside him and said, "But have you remembered everything?"
The scribe nodded quickly and said, "I have recorded it all!"
Then the clerk said with a little admiration in his eyes: "Xu Qing, you are really amazing these days! You solved two big cases in a row! Why didn't I realize that you were so clever when we worked together in the yamen?
!”
When Xu Qing heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said: "It's just a little cleverness, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning!"
Su Qian said to a jailer outside: "Open the cell door quickly and let Xu Qing come out."
Xu Qing came out of the cell, looked at Liu Qun who was already very drunk in the cell, and said, "Go to the place he mentioned and find out if the murder weapon is still there."
…
To be honest, the most successful person in this scene was not Xu Qing, let alone Su Qian, but the bamboo tube of wine.
If Liu Qun hadn't been greedy for a drink of wine, this case would have been difficult to solve.
Drinking made things worse, but this time it was so good that I even lost my life by mistake.
Soon, several detectives found the knife stained with blood and dirt from the east city gate.
unambiguous evidence!
Magistrate Su County has been able to convict Liu Qun.
Kill to pay for life, debt to pay for money, everything is natural and right.
Xu Qing didn't expect him to do anything good for her this time, she just asked him to reimburse her for the things she spent on solving the case.
After hearing Xu Qing's request, County Magistrate Su said cheerfully: "Yes, tell me, what did it cost to solve this case? The county government will compensate you."
After all, Xu Qing is not asking for a reward for the case he solved for the county government. He just wants the county government to reimburse the cost of solving the case, which is what he should do at this time.
Xu Qing said: "About a pot of strong liquor, and a reward of two and a half taels of silver promised to Wang who provided the details of the case. Oh, and he even gave out ten taels of silver when he acted with the boss...and..."
Magistrate Su laughed when he heard the increasing amount of money spent, and patted Xu Qing on the shoulder: "It's almost dinner time. Let's go. Let's go to my house with me to have a casual meal and talk slowly..."
Xu Qing looked at Magistrate Su walking out with his hands behind his back, and froze in place. If he was given another cup of tea, he could actually finish his sentence...
Although the simple meal at Su County Magistrate's house was really not easy to eat, Xu Qing had to go there for the sake of money.
After all, you have already provided all the energy yourself, so you can’t provide the money yourself, right?
For the sake of money, Xu Qing had no choice but to feel sorry for her stomach again.
Su family
Magistrate Su seems to be very keen on cooking, but for things like cooking, judging by his talent, Magistrate Su obviously does not have this talent.
Xu Qing and Su Qian sat down together. Su Jiyuan just came out of the kitchen with the last dish. Then, Magistrate Su placed the dish on the table and sat down.
He greeted politely: "Come on, you're welcome. You can eat whatever you want, just like you are at home."
Xu Qing cleared his throat and said, "Sir, look at the cost of solving the case..."
Su Jiyuan coughed, waved his hand and said: "We won't talk about business at home, come and have dinner..."
Seeing Xu Qing's unmoved look, Su Jiyuan casually picked up a large piece of chopsticks for Xu Qing and placed it in Xu Qing's bowl.
"You're welcome, you can eat whatever you want."
Xu Qing stared blankly at Su Jiyuan, who was picking up food for him with an amiable expression. He seemed to have never thought that the county magistrate was so shameless...
I'm not allowed to speak at the county government, and I don't discuss official matters at home. In other words, I have to suffer the consequences myself?!
He knew that neither the wise king nor the county magistrate could be trusted!
Sure enough, I was tricked again!
Xu Qing was very sad. When he saw the vegetables that had begun to appear in the bowl, he felt even sadder...
after meal
Su Qian and Xu Qing were sitting in a small pavilion.
She looked at Xu Qing and said, "How much did it cost you to solve this case? I'll replenish it for you."
Xu Qing immediately shook his head: "How much does it cost? It's just a matter of a few dollars. My subordinates are not short of money now."
Look, my daughter is more sensible than her father! Doesn’t Magistrate Su’s conscience hurt? Doesn’t he feel ashamed?!
However, Xu Qing cannot take Su Qian's money. His father is his father and his daughter is his daughter. It is his father who cheats him and his daughter who helps him.
Whoever should repay this debt must repay it.
It was not easy for Su Qian to save her little private money. Xu Qing was not short of money now and could not retaliate for kindness.
At this moment, there was a knock at the courtyard door, and then a man who looked like a housekeeper was ushered in by a servant, but this was not the housekeeper of the Su family.
This man who looked like a butler looked a little arrogant, as if he thought he was some great big shot.
Magistrate Su County introduced him into the main hall, and the two parties took their seats respectively.
Magistrate Su County first ordered people to serve tea, and then asked: "May I ask Butler Xu, what do you do for visiting my humble residence?"
This person has already submitted the post just now. This person is the housekeeper of Xu Mansion, which is also the residence of Sima Yongzhou.
Butler Li said: "Master Su, I am here for a happy event."
Magistrate Su was slightly startled, and then asked: "I wonder what happy event is happening to Butler Li?"
Butler Li said: "I came here this time on my master's order to propose marriage."
"Propose marriage?" Magistrate Su couldn't help but be startled when he heard this.
Butler Li said: "To be honest with Mr. Su, my young master saw a piece of Miss Su at the Chinese Valentine's Day Poetry Festival last time, and he has been thinking about it ever since. He has been begging me to make an engagement with Miss Su. Now my master is also doing this for me."
The young master was moved by his infatuation, so he sent a villain to Master Su's house to propose marriage."
Su Jiyuan knew that Xu Shen was a very famous playboy in Yongzhou City.
He usually idles around and does many things like bullying men and dominating women. However, because his father is the Sima of Yongzhou, he does mischief in Yongzhou city, but no one dares to punish him.
After the prince came back, he felt much more at ease.
But as for his infatuation with Su Qian, Su Jiyuan didn't believe it at all!
I don’t know how many women have been destroyed in the hands of this man. To believe that he is sincere to a woman is worse than to believe that a pig can climb a tree!
He is just coveting the beauty of his daughter!
Any conscientious parents will never marry their daughter to such a person, and Su Jiyuan is no exception!
