Chen Qianhu was sitting in the back hall of the county government office, with only Zhao Guanren and Tan Qingning standing in front of him. Tan Qingning lowered her head and did not dare to say a word. She already understood that Zhao Guanren had brought her into the ditch and did not really want to save her at all.
, completely to get myself through the difficulties.
"My lord! Xiaosheng is from Zhaojia Village, Hutong Township. His parents died young, leaving Xiaosheng alone..."
Zhao Guanren cupped his hands and replied: "Xiaosheng wanted to go to Ningzhou to visit famous teachers, and in the future he would go to Beijing to get a degree. However, thieves robbed me and cut my hair halfway. In hesitation, I met the old lady of the Zhang family and took me
Mistaking him for her child, I went to sleep in her shabby house for a night!"
"Huh~"
Chen Qianhu picked up the tea bowl and blew on it. After sipping the tea, he asked: "Then where did the money come from to buy the house, the slaves, and the guests for the banquet?"
"Two thousand taels earned from the Bian family's sword shop..."
Zhao Guanren told the story about the fraudulent purchase of the sword, and finally puffed up his chest and said: "My Dashun men are full of passion, and it is natural for them to serve their motherland. When I found out that there was a corpse and someone was causing trouble, I shouldered this responsibility without hesitation, even though
I will not hesitate to go to jail!"
"Um!"
Chen Qianhu asked noncommittally: "Where are the seven people you transferred?"
"Sir, please rest assured..."
Zhao Guanren said with a smile: "Li Baihu and others have been settled well and are recuperating in a secluded courtyard. After their legs and feet become flexible, they will resume their humble duties... Oh no! Xiaosheng will definitely send them out of the city quietly. The wind is too tight right now. It's not appropriate."
Move around!”
"You have to change your name..."
Chen Qianhu leaned on the chair and said: "My secret agents in black are all registered in the register. The emperor and the commander each have one. If Zhao Yunxuan shows up for nothing, it will definitely make people suspicious. From now on, you will be called Chang Ziteng."
,This is your waist badge and identity book!"
Chen Qianhu took out a bronze medal and a blood-stained folded cardboard card from his arms. It was estimated that the owner had been killed.
"Isn't it?"
After Zhao Guanren took it, he said depressedly: "This name is too unlucky. The pain in the intestines is worse than the stomach pain. How can I still have the strength to work after I pooped my pants? When I hear this name, I know that it is a short-lived ghost!"
"Pfft~"
Tan Qingning covered her mouth and burst into laughter.
"This man slipped and fell to his death a few days ago. The only people who know his identity are me and Qing Ning..."
Chen Qianhu still kept a serious smile and said: "This man is about the same age as you, and his appearance is not much different. He is from Xiangtian, Ningzhou. He has been working as a spy in our guard since he was a child. He has a concubine in Xiangtian County, and we have no other acquaintances with him."
As a person, you can claim to the outside world that Zhao Yunxuan is your pseudonym!"
Zhao Guanren said in astonishment: "Then what should I do if his concubine comes to visit me and makes me silence her?"
"No need!"
Chen Qianhu said expressionlessly: "That woman is also our secret agent in the defense field. We can arrange for her to meet you tomorrow. She will be your deputy from now on. But you have to continue to investigate the corpse plague case. Your Majesty will not
Love seeing an ambiguous answer!”
"Sir! Poisoning an enemy country is just an excuse..."
Zhao Guanren stepped forward and bent down and said: "No one would be stupid enough to poison a dry well. It was obviously just an accident, and the matter has already spread. The possibility of finding the person who made the poison is not high, so
This humble position requires your Majesty to express clearly what kind of answer the Emperor wants to see!"
"So, there is no corpse poison in the Bian family's secret room..."
Chen Qianhu leaned back in his chair, and Zhao Guanren replied: "The secret room has been searched, and it is not a place where drugs are made. However, if you want it to be there, it will be there, but once it is presented in court, there will be no room for maneuver."
, so it’s up to the adults to decide!”
"You should investigate carefully and try your best to find out the person who made the poison..."
Chen Qianhu knocked on the table lightly and said: "In the future, you can report to me directly without going through Qing Ning. I will allocate ten flag guards for you to send. As long as this job is done beautifully, you will be granted a rank of six and a hundred.
Households are not a problem, do you understand?"
"Thank you for your humble position, sir. I will definitely work hard in the future and die..."
Zhao Guanren took out a stack of banknotes flatteringly, put them on the tea table and said with a smile: "These five thousand taels are bribes given by the Xie family. They want me to take them out. I dare not keep them secretly because of my humble position. I will leave them to the adults."
, I will go to the Yamen first and wait for the adults to come!"
"Go! Don't say too much..."
Chen Qianhu nodded slightly, and Zhao Guanren immediately exited and closed the door.
"Qing Ning! Brother Wei is right..."
Chen Qianhu stood up and said: "This person is willing to risk beheading to help you. He must have some purpose. He is definitely not a good person. However, this person is really not like a child in the age of dancing elephants. He is very observant and understands the ways of the world. And
He is so bold that he shows no fear in front of all the officials!"
"Brother!"
Tan Qingning frowned and said: "Junior sister still feels that this person's origin is unknown and should not be used easily. We must go to Zhaojiacun tomorrow to check on him to avoid further trouble!"
"He dares to say that he is from Zhaojiacun, and he will definitely let you find out any tricks..."
Chen Qianhu said: "This man is eloquent and very witty. Not to mention you who are just starting out, the Wang Zhifu and others are still treated like monkeys by him. Our black-clothed guards are short of such talents, and if not
If he takes action, even Master will be implicated by you!"
"Ning'er understands, but..."
Tan Qingning struggled: "I'm afraid that he is a double-edged sword. He lies without blinking an eye and is full of evil. I'm really afraid that I can't control him and the harm will be endless!"
"Don't worry! This person has no legs and will never be able to escape..."
Chen Qianhu picked up the five thousand taels of silver notes on the table and said: "The spies in the city have reported to me that this kid has stolen a lot of money from the Bian and Xie families. Unless the Bian family is in a hurry, he will never make such a ruthless move.
, this kind of person is just trying to get promoted and get rich, just satisfy him!"
"Senior brother! This is a pool of muddy water..."
Tan Qingning stood up and said: "No one can guess what the emperor is thinking. Prince Duan is also his biological son. The governor of Ningzhou has always been slow to move forward. I am afraid that he does not want to touch the two hot topics of 'Bian Xie'
Yam!"
"Hmph~ It's time to tell you that Master is the superintendent of Ningzhou..."
Chen Qianhu turned around and smiled sinisterly. Tan Qingning covered her mouth in shock and was speechless for a long time.
…
"What are these things? They are so weird..."
The people outside the government office were talking a lot. All the things taken from the Bian family's secret room had been sent to the lobby. There were a lot of wooden TV sets, tape recorders and bicycles. The officials were also curious.
Watch.
"What on earth is this? What did you do behind my back..."
Bian's old face turned pale with anger. He leaned on the Taishi chair and pointed angrily at Third Yiniang.
"Sir! These are useless inventions..."
The third aunt lowered her head and muttered: "I was afraid of exposing myself to others, so I hid it in a private house. There is nothing special about it. The agency was also afraid of thieves getting in. If outsiders knew about our invention, it would be a disaster."
It is not good after all if it comes from my concubine!"
"Sir Sento is here!"
Chen Qianhu suddenly walked out of the back hall, walked around the strange things, and sneered: "Mr. Bian! It seems that your family has a lot of strange skills. You are indeed a famous craftsman."
Family, is there any corpse poison hidden in this?"
"Return to my lord!"
A member of the household clasped his fists and said: "We have brought all the objects in the secret room, and representatives from various government agencies have recorded them. However, my subordinates do not know what they are and dare not easily dismantle them for inspection. No poisonous powder has been found in the secret room yet!"
"Zhao Yunxuan! Come and check, split it..."
Chen Qianhu turned around and slashed with his hands. Zhao Guanren immediately understood that the Bian family was in doom, so he took a knife and struck hard. Finally, he chopped out a copper can in the wooden recorder, the size of a can of Coke, with a
The cork is sealed.
"This is not my family's thing. Someone framed it..."
San Yiniang's expression suddenly changed. Zhao Guanren took out the jar and sneered: "San Yiniang! The things were shipped from your house. So many people have witnessed it with their own eyes. You can't just ignore it if you want. Someone is here!"
Bring the livestock in for poison testing!”
"yes!"
The government officials immediately took out the prepared small animals and carefully opened the copper jar. Inside was half a jar of viscous black liquid. They only used chopsticks to get some for the small animals to taste, and several small animals were killed one after another.
Changed.
"Corpse poison! More poisonous than the one in the well..."
The yamen servants all exclaimed, and there was a loud "buzz" outside the hall, and they cursed the Bian family. Third Yiniang collapsed on the spot, and Bian Xianglan also took a step back, and was not supported by servants.
I almost fell down too.
"Yellow-mouthed kid! Bullying goes too far, bullying goes too far..."
Member Bian stood on his crutches in agony and couldn't help but close his eyes and burst into tears. This time, even if he had a gold medal to avoid death, he could not save his family.
"Someone is coming!"
Chen Qianhu shouted loudly: "The Bian family is treasonous. They took back the alchemy certificate and immediately sealed up all the land and houses of the Bian family. The shops and workshops were also sealed. Everyone in the Bian family was placed under house arrest. They were not allowed to leave the prison until they gave a truthful account."
Otherwise, we will kill you without mercy!"
"father!!!"
Bian Xianglan suddenly screamed horribly. Officer Bian spat out a mouthful of blood, kicked his legs on the chair and fainted.
"Find a doctor for him. We can't let him die until we find out the truth..."
Chen Qianhu waved his hand expressionlessly, but as soon as Zhao Guanren heard the word "truth", he knew that this good show was far from over, otherwise the Bian family should be thrown into prison and slowly dealt with, and more
No need for house arrest.
"Master Zhao! We are good brothers, you have to take care of me..."
Song Chizhu rushed over to beg him. His matter had not been explained clearly. The black-clothed guards did not care whether he was the county magistrate or not and took him away with Hu County Magistrate. Magistrate Wang's expression was as dead as hell.
Like a mother, beads of sweat kept flowing down.
"Master Wang! You can take care of yourself..."
Chen Qianhu looked at Magistrate Wang and smiled coldly, and personally took people to interrogate Hu County Cheng and others. Zhao Guanren grabbed a hundred households and said with a smile: "Brother! Can I go with you to investigate the Bian family? I'm on an errand."
I spent a lot of money and I’m short on money!”
"Brother Xian! You can't move now..."
Baihu said: "You have been out all the time and don't know the rules. Even if you are under house arrest, there is still a chance. Besides, the grandsons of the White Guards will definitely arrive tomorrow morning. We can't let them seize the opportunity. At most, I can get some tea money tonight, and my brother will give it to you later."
Bring it along, it’s indispensable for you!”
"Thank you, brother! I will remember this favor first..."
Zhao Guanren smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Brother, please help me again. I have a maid named Yu Niang who was kidnapped by the Bian family. Try your best to help me find her. I can use that girl very well."
