Chapter 284: Who?
Gao Mingwei, the county magistrate of Xingchang County, received a report from the Yan family early in the morning, saying that Yongxiangyuan was ravaged by Zhurong, and after cleaning up the fire, a corpse was found inside. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's really unlucky! I received this kind of case early in the morning. Gao Xian Ling opened his hands, and the most favored concubine put on an official uniform for him, and when he was angry and complaining, the concubine hurriedly comforted him gently, and only then did he give advice softly when the anger of the person was calmed down.
"Master, didn't you say that the new prefect is about to take office?" the concubine asked as she took a xiaolongbao from the plate and put it in the bowl of Gao Countyling.
"Yes!" Gao Xianling grabbed the xiaolongbao and stuffed it into his mouth, and replied while eating.
The concubine pursed her lips without a trace, "Master, I heard that this new prefect is the son of the city lord of Xiangxuehai." Gao Xianling nodded, picked up the porridge bowl and poured it, "So what?"
"The prefect is newly appointed, and he definitely needs to deter the Quartet, you say, what is more powerful than the case of the Yan family?"
Gao Xianling's eyes lit up, he just wanted to give away the credit, and he was a little reluctant! Besides, he had coveted this Yan family's Yongxiang Garden for many years, but because Yan Xiude had Rui Yao behind him, no matter how much he wanted to take it for himself, he had to weigh his own weight.
But now Yan Xiude is no longer an elder, well, thinking of Yan Xiude's beautiful and beautiful face and curvy figure, Gao Xianling suddenly felt a slight tightness in his lower body.
The concubine sat on his lap, the changes in his body, she was the first to notice, her eyes were slightly sunken, what did this old guy think, how could he suddenly ......
However, she didn't dare to tease him, "Master, if the prefect owes you a favor...... the unfinished words are even easier to imagine.
Gao Xianling pondered for a long time before he smiled. "Let someone go and invite the doctor, and then send someone to inform the county lieutenant and order him to take the head catcher and the official to Yan's house for a trip. ”
There will be credit, Yongxiangyuan, it is just a big mansion, but let Shangguan owe himself a favor, this kind of opportunity is not available every day.
Yao County Lieutenant had already gone to Yan's house, and when he received the news that the Yan family was walking away from the water yesterday, he took people to Songcheng overnight, but it was not easy to travel in the heavy rain, and when they arrived at Yan's house, the sky was already bright, and the rain still fell, but it was much better than the day before.
Yan Xiude, accompanied by Zhang Jianfu's father and son, met with the county lieutenant Yao, and personally took them to see the scene.
Because of the heavy rain, the scene has been destroyed, and County Lieutenant Yao told Yan Xiude the truth, if he wants to find out any clues from the scene, I am afraid it is not easy, but they will investigate in detail.
When he said this, County Lieutenant Yao stared at Yan Xiude with straight eyes, Nan Gui and Nan Di were annoyed when they watched from the side, that is, Zhang Jianfu didn't have a good impression of this cousin, but he couldn't allow anyone to be so contemptuous of her in front of him.
The county lieutenant Yao, who was glared at by Zhang Jianfu's father and son and the maids, was very helpless, he naturally had to look at the person he was questioning when he asked, he wanted to see the other party's reaction to his questioning, after he took over as the county lieutenant, he was often stared at for investigating the case, so he was used to being stared at, and he didn't take their eyes to heart at all.
After asking, he went to look for the man, there was no clue at the scene, maybe he could answer from the corpse, right?
In a house not far from Yongxiang Garden, Nanquan was sitting on a small pestle, looking intently at the fire of the small tandoor in front of her, and the small medicine pot on the small clay stove began to emit white smoke.
The bitter smell of medicine slowly filled the room, and a heart-rending cough came from another room.
"Auntie?" Zhang Youyi shouted while coughing, Nan Quan's eyebrows were full of impatience, but soon disappeared without a trace, looked at the fire, and finally decided to take out two more small pieces of charcoal that burned red, and then got up to look at Zhang Youyi.
"Auntie, why hasn't Dad come yet?" Zhang Youyi coughed as she spoke, her cough sounded angry, it could be seen that she was hurt, Nanquan said in her heart, what's going on? I've been raising this for a few days, and it's not okay?
"Your father went out on errands, and when he received a letter from the house, it took time to deliver it to him. Nanquan paused and asked, "Why don't you hire a car and send you back in a while?"
"No, I'm not going back, if my father doesn't come to pick me up, I won't go back. Zhang Youyi shouted excitedly, as soon as she was excited, her cough became more and more severe, and Nanquan secretly regretted that she shouldn't have listened to her cousin and deceived her.
thought that if he kept her in his hands, he would have the bargaining chips to negotiate with Zhang Jianfu, and no matter how bad it was, he could ask for some ransom from him to spend.
Who knew that this dead girl had injuries on her body and her temper was still hard, she had known that this dead girl had a bad temper, but she didn't know that the dead girl wouldn't even look at her face.
Speaking of which, her cousin is not angry, she can't move when she sees a beautiful little girl, and she has to take advantage of life and death before she is willing, Zhang Youyi has a strong temperament, she is unwilling to be bullied, and she kicks the important parts of the man with a ruthless kick.
After hitting the man hard, she didn't seize the opportunity to escape, but sat in place and cried, after the man eased up, she was unlucky, she was beaten hard, the old injury was not healed and was seriously injured, if it wasn't for Nanquan to arrive, I'm afraid that even her innocence will not be guaranteed.
Nanquan thought of her cousin's ruthlessness, and her brows jumped heavily.
"Auntie, where is that stinky man, and when will he be back?"
"You! this temper has to be changed. Nanquan persuaded.
Zhang Youyi glared at her dissatisfied, "Auntie, that stinky man should change his temperament, right?"
Nanquan laughed, what a little girl who doesn't know the height of the sky!, "I'll go and bring you medicine." ”
"I'm hungry. ”
"I'm hungry too, but the stinky man you shouted at didn't come back, so we didn't have anything to eat. Nanquan spread his hands out.
It's raining outside, she has been waiting for Yan Xiude since she was a child, and she has never cooked, so she can't cook food, and she relies on her cousin to buy food, but the man hasn't come back since he went out yesterday, Zhang Youyi's medicine has two packs left, and one medicine can be boiled three times, and no matter how much medicine is effective, it will not be enough.
So the man took the money with her yesterday and went to get medicine and buy food, and it was supposed to be back last night, but until now it was dawn and there was no one to be seen.
That guy didn't take the money and go to the gambling house again, right?
If he doesn't come back, he will go out in the rain to buy food and medicine, otherwise, let Zhang Jianfu know that he has mistreated his daughter, I'm afraid he won't give him half a dime!
"Auntie?"
"It's fine. Nanquan comforted her, and turned to serve the medicine.
She lifted the medicine pot and poured it into the bowl, when the medicine was poured to six minutes full, there was still a lot of medicine left in the medicine pot, it seemed that she was afraid of overburning, and took out too much charcoal, resulting in insufficient firepower and insufficient medicine, so she quickly put the charcoal back again, the fire immediately became bigger, and after waiting for a while, when she lifted the medicine pot again, she felt much lighter.
Pouring the medicinal juice into the bowl again, it will be full of eight points, and Nanquan took the medicine to Zhang Youyi.
Zhang Youyi wanted to smash the bowl very much, but she didn't dare, she was afraid that the stinky man would come back and find out, and he would beat her again regardless of his injury.
After watching Zhang Youyi drink the medicine and let her sleep, Nanquan took an umbrella and went out, and when she came outside and saw that the rain was still strong, she couldn't help sighing, turned around and locked the door, walked into the rain, and quickly disappeared.
After walking for a long time, I smelled something different, and when I looked again, I found that the neighbors in the neighborhood were hiding in the house to avoid the rain, but they were all gathered under the porch in front of the house, chatting with people.
Nanquan walked cautiously, pricking up her ears as she went, listening to the conversation of the neighbors.
A charred corpse was also found in the east side courtyard of Yongxiangyuan, and after investigation, it was not the Yan family, in fact, no one knew how the person got into the house.
Hearing this, Nan Quan felt a sigh in her heart, who could it be? Somehow, she suddenly thought of her cousin, who had not been seen since yesterday.
Hurried to a nearby restaurant, bought braised pork and roast duck, and then transferred to the pharmacy, grabbed two more servings according to the prescription, and took the opportunity to ask the doctor about Zhang Youyi's situation.
"Is the sick man coming?" the doctor who was about sixty years old asked slowly, "I have to check the pulse to know if the side is still right, but listening to what the lady said, it should be wrong, or if I don't take so many clothes, there will be no improvement at all." ”
What she said was very reasonable, but she didn't dare to ask the doctor to go, because it was raining heavily, and it was not cheap to ask the doctor to come to the doctor! She is not Zhang Jianfu's concubine now, and someone is responsible for all the expenses, and she has not much money left, so she has to save some flowers!
Grasping the medicine, carrying things and holding an umbrella, Nanquan went out cautiously, but she didn't know that as soon as she left on her front foot, someone on her back foot reported the news to Liu Er.
If you want to help find Zhang Youyi, where do you start? Naturally, you have to start with the person who sent the letter to Zhang Youyi, and when that person sent a letter, Zhang Youyi left everyone and went to the meeting alone, who could this person be?
After combing through it like this, it was immediately found out that the person was Nan Quan, and Nan Quan was sent to Zhuangzi, but Zhuangtou never saw anyone, and he thought that Zhang Jianfu regretted it, and chased people back and forgot to inform them, who would know that Nan Quan slipped away?
Now that I know that it may be a letter sent by Nan Quan, the next thing is to check Nan Quan's relatives, after checking them one by one, everyone is honest, only one of her cousins quit their jobs two days ago, saying that they were lucky enough to win money, and they wanted to use the money to do a small business, and they coaxed their families to fund and support him.
But everyone pooled the money to him, and the others disappeared.
The pigeon guards found his place in the morning and saw a woman coming out of the house, but because it was raining with an umbrella, they could not be sure that the woman was Nam Tsuen.
Therefore, they had to follow Nanquan all the way from the restaurant to the pharmacy, and then they were sure that it was her.
"Quick, follow her. ”
"Shall we go around her cousin's house first and see if Miss Zhang is inside?" one of the guards thought it was a bit silly to follow like this.
"It's fine. The lead guard nodded, and they went their separate ways.
Later, the leading pigeon guard was very happy and made this decision by himself, because the people who rushed to the house happened to rescue Zhang Youyi from the clutches of Nanquan's cousin.
