I played the old man and grandson Ke last time, and I played the old man and grandson Ke again, and gave them a lot of silver taels, and the grandson was grateful, and automatically asked Ying to say that he wanted to find out the news for Luo Gong and Yushi. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After saluting, Ke Lao didn't dare to sit, and finally sat down under Yu Shi's order.

As soon as Ke Lao sat down, he was like sitting on pins and needles, he was old, and he sat on such a good circle chair for the first time, and his heart said What kind of wood is this?

Ke Lao was still thinking about the material of the circle chair, and the first jade had already asked about the news, so he hurriedly straightened his sitting posture and replied respectfully:

"The adults asked Xiaomin to investigate, and Xiaomin has already found out a little."

Since he knew that Luo Gong and Yu Shi were really the two errands from Chu Jing, Ke Lao didn't dare to call himself a little old man anymore.

Luo Gong said: "Pick the important ones." ”

Ke Lao said: "Yes, my lord! ”

Important to say...... Ke Lao thought about it for a while, and felt that it was very important, so he started from the beginning.

Fang Shijun was in office for three months, and during these three months, he actively investigated Chen Huiyao's case while not forgetting to enjoy himself.

This is his nature, even if his life is good, he can't forget it.

At that time, although Wang Peng had not returned home from illness, he had already received notes from the green snake from time to time, just like Zhang Gengli, and the two of them had been acting according to the note.

The instructions on the note are also simple, just four words - stand by and watch.

Ke Lao said: "I heard that Lord Fang Zhi County also scolded Lord Wang County Cheng and Master Zhang Zhubo in the arms of the Qinglou Oiran, saying that the two of them were two ......."

Two what?

Ke Lao, a civilian, looked left and right, but he didn't have the courage to say it directly.

Yu Shizhuang said boldly: "Here, Ke Lao doesn't need to scruples, just say what you say, no one will blame you, even if there is, there will be me and the commander to support you!" Ke Lao will put one hundred and twenty hearts! ”

Commander?

Hearing this name, Ke Lao was a little stunned, and said in his heart, what kind of official is this?

I don't know.

I really don't know.

But it's okay, anyway, the two heads are definitely more than the officials of the county, otherwise how can they become Chu Jinglai's superiors?

Beijing officials, the officials of the same prefect are not called prefects, they have to be called Fu Yin!

This is what he said to the famous man in his arms when he overheard those rich and noble officials talking about it in the Qinglou.

When he said it, the faces of the rich and noble officials were full of meat, not to mention how much they yearned for Chu Jing, and how much they envied the infinite scenery in Chu Jing.

Ke Lao thought about self-construction in his heart, and then continued to speak, he really listened to Yu Shi, and he had no scruples at all.

Fang Shijun scolded Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli for being shrunken turtles, not going to investigate Chen Huiyao's case all day long, and not going out of the door in the yamen, like following the girls!

also said that when he gained a firm foothold in Zhusha County, Fang Shijun would inevitably have to find an opportunity to make Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli look good, so that the two of them would not even be able to be a small county and a master!

Luo Gong said: "This Fang Shi is very arrogant, but unfortunately he is only arrogant, but he has no resourcefulness. ”

Yu Shi also said: "If you have great wisdom, he will not follow Chen Zhixian to report to the Hades Palace so quickly." ”

The two superiors spoke, but Ke Lao couldn't interject, and he didn't dare to interject, so he just waited.

When the two messengers had finished speaking, he motioned for him to continue, and then he spoke again.

After Yu Shi finished speaking, he looked at Ke Lao, and the look in his eyes signaled that he could continue.

Ke Lao understood, and immediately continued.

Fang Shijun not only spoke wildly, but also put everything into action.

Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli were not dedicated to Chen Huiyao's case, and both of them were loyal and good, although they had to follow the instructions of the note sent by the green snake against their will due to the safety of their families, but the conscience in their hearts made the two suffer.

After all, Chen Huiyao is no longer a good official, but he has no big faults, such a person is gone in the blink of an eye.

Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli, as Chen Huiyao's subordinates, should have found out the truth for Shangfeng and took the murderer for Shangfeng.

But the two of them couldn't do anything.

When they heard Fang Shijun say wildly, saying that the murderer who dared to kill the magistrate of a county must be brought to justice, the two showed that they had not cooperated with Fang Shijun, but the joy in their hearts was indescribable, and they were so happy that they couldn't sleep at night.

Therefore, no matter how much Ren Fangshijun buried Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli, it was useless, and secretly reprimanded the two for dereliction of duty, and even released cruel words, saying that they wanted the two to lose their official positions, and the two had no conflict in their hearts.

Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli of that meeting only looked at Fang Shijun to be able to take the murderer of Chen Huiyao for questioning as he said, then they were the officials who really lost the county and the lord, and the two of them were also willing and had no complaints.

Ke Lao said: "I heard that Lord Wang County Cheng and Master Zhang Zhubo of that meeting really suffered a lot from Lord Fangzhi County!" ”

Fang Shijun did what he said, but he was not tolerant of people, and he was very stingy.

In the face of Fang Shijun's open and secret mixing, Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli had unspeakable hardships and could only bear it.

Luo Gong asked: "I don't know this, who did Ke Lao know from?" ”

He and Yu Shi also learned some such things from the mouths of the yamen officials.

But Ke Lao was able to understand the county magistrate, county prince, and lord Bo in the county ya, which was like the relationship between the three people in the county ya, and the obscure things of the secret fight in the county ya, and he was still a little curious about how Ke Lao knew about this.

Ke Lao smiled and said: "Xiao Min took the silver taels given by the adults to buy the Oiran rain curtain girl of the Tobacco Fragrance Building, when the Lord Fang Zhi County was not killed, she was the old friend of the Lord Fang Zhi County, and there is nothing about the Lord Fang Zhi County that she is not in harmony with!" ”

Saying this, Luo Gong and Yu Shi also remembered.

When Fang Shijun was killed, it was in this Oiran room called the rain curtain.

At the time of the crime, the rain curtain was knocked unconscious.

After waking up, as soon as the rain curtain saw the corpse of Fang Shijun who had had her throat cut and a copper coin was placed, she was so frightened that she trembled and screamed again and again, but fortunately did not faint again, but alarmed the entire Yanxiang Building.

Yu Shi smiled: "It turns out that my adult and I still thought that we should go to meet this Oiran rain curtain for a while, it seems that Ke Lao has visited me and my adult first!" ”

Ke Lao said sincerely: "Xiaomin doesn't know if he asks everything, if Xiaomin finishes speaking, what else is unknown to the two adults, if you want to ask, Xiaomin can ask the rain curtain girl again, don't bother the two adults to go in person!" ”

Ke Lao didn't think much about it, but he thought that he had to do more things for Luo Gong and Yushi in order to repay the great kindness of the two of them.

Although Luo Gong was not unsatisfied with what Ke Lao had investigated, he actually wanted to know some particularly unusual news, just like what he told Ke Lao at the beginning - to pick and choose important things.

Obviously, Ke Lao didn't know what was more important, and he might even think that the information he found was important.

Luo Gong had no choice but to change his question:

"Elder Ke, what is impressive about all the information you have found out about Fang Zhi County?"

Ke Lao was a little puzzled: "Impressed? ”

Yu Shi, like Luo Gong, was also anxious to know some particularly unusual news.

But she also saw that Ke Lao couldn't automatically tell this.

After being asked by Luo Gong in a different way, seeing that Ke Lao was at a loss, Yu Shi thought about it and prompted:

"When Fang Zhixian was in office, in addition to quickly investigating and finding out the murderer of Chen Zhixian's case, he was extremely greedy for pleasure, eating, drinking and having fun, but anyone who was involved in eating, drinking and having fun would always have one or two conflicts with others, even if it was not a big deal, it should be, Ke Lao thought about it, but there was such a thing happening to Fang Zhixian?"

Yu Shi explained it so plainly and clearly, Ke Lao seemed to understand a little.

Just as Ke Lao was meditating, Yu Shi asked the official to come into the side hall and refill the steaming tea for the three of them.

Thinking that Ke Lao came to the yamen early in the morning, and his life was poor, maybe before rushing to the yamen, he drank some gruel for breakfast, and he couldn't stand the hunger at all, so Yu Shi asked the yamen to go to the back kitchen to get two or three pastries, and put them on the table next to the chair where Ke Lao was sitting, so that Ke Lao Hao could eat some with hot tea, so that he would not drink tea on an empty stomach and be hungry.

When the official had just entered the side hall with the tray, Ke Lao really thought that there was such a thing as depicted by Yushi, but the conflict was really small and the time it happened was short, and he didn't pay attention to it at first, let alone list it as an important thing.

It wasn't until Luo Gong said it and Yu Shi explained it in detail that Ke Lao remembered this little conflict.

Just as he was about to speak, the tip of his nose smelled a smell that was so fragrant that he didn't want to, Ke Lao looked at the tray held by the official in both hands, and immediately a pair of cloudy old eyes lit up frighteningly, and the sound of swallowing saliva sounded almost inaudible.

The servant put the delicate pastries on the tray on the table beside Ke Lao, and then retreated.

Yu Shi and Luo Gong did not miss Ke Lao's small movements of saliva, thinking that the two of them gave Ke Lao so many silver taels, in addition to taking it out to investigate the news for the two, Ke Lao was still extremely frugal about the life of himself and his grandchildren.

At least Ke Lao should be very frugal with himself.

So if you put such a delicate and delicious pastry in front of Ke Lao, it is a great temptation to eat.

Yu Shi didn't know what it was like in her heart.

She thought of asking the official to fetch some pastries, but she also thought that Ke Lao would be thirsty if he talked too much, and if he was thirsty, he would drink tea, and if he drank too much tea, he would be hungry, and if he was hungry, he would have something to eat.

The old man sincerely did things for her and Luo Gong, and she couldn't let the old man go hungry.

At first, she thought like this, but she just thought about it according to common sense, but when she really saw Ke Lao's salivating appearance when she looked at the pastries, Yu Shi knew that she still thought too little about it, and thought too much about the situation of the civilian people living at the bottom too simply.

She will think too simply, because after two lifetimes, she has not tasted poverty at all, and naturally she can't imagine the poverty and helplessness at the bottom.

Although Luo Gong didn't think as much as Yu Shi thought, and he didn't have two lives to compare with Yu Shi, he was indeed like Yu Shi, since he was a child, he had his own clothes and jade food, and his daily life was properly arranged for him, warm in winter and cool in summer, so he was not wronged at all.

Even if he occasionally saw those little beggars in Chu Jing, Luo Gong knew that there were actually those true and false, just as the human heart was wrapped in a layer of belly, and no one could see through whether it was a bright red human heart in that layer of belly, or a human heart that had been so turbid that it could not be seen red.

Over time, he also learned to see silently.

But in front of a low-level civilian like Ke Lao, Luo Gong couldn't silently look at it, because he had seen the dilapidated tiled house where Ke Lao and his grandchildren lived, and he had personally entered the house where even the tables and chairs were incomplete, and they were all so real and poor.

I thought that I would steal his money bag and jade pendant in the snack bar, but I was also forced by life.

Of course, for the purpose at that time, he and Yu Shiji both released water when Ke Da took the money bag and jade pendant through the collision, so that Ke Da could steal the things of the two of them smoothly, but in hindsight, he really did the right thing at that time.

not only inadvertently helped a poor family, but also got a helper to help the two spy on the news.

Ke Lao and Ke Da are different from Bingwei and Liancheng, their grandparents and grandchildren are natives of this county, compared with Bingwei and Liancheng, the news they get is easier, more accurate, and more unexpected.

Because the people of Zhusha County did not care about the killing of the three of them at all, Chen Huiyao, Fang Shijun, and Lin Chang, the three magistrates who were killed in succession.

Such an attitude can make Luo Gong and Yu Shi and Bingwei and Liancheng who are investigating everywhere miss some information.

That information may not be big, or even small.

But sometimes, some of the key things are in those inadvertent, small and inconspicuous things.

Ke Lao and Ke Da may be able to find out such small things for Luo Gong and Yushi.

Ke Lao thought of a skirmish, but Yu Shi asked him to use some pastries first, he couldn't resist the temptation of pastries, so he picked up a piece and ate it first.

On weekdays, the biggest luxury of him and his grandson Ke Da is to go to the snack bar, and the grandfather and grandson eat a small basket of steamed dumplings together.

Such delicate and delicious pastries, don't say that his grandson Ke Da is big, that is, he has lived for most of his life, and he has seen it a few times, but it is the first time he has eaten it in his mouth!

Ke Lao ate very happily, but also ate very slowly, one bite after another, as if he was reluctant to eat, and after eating half of it, he put the pastry back into the white lotus porcelain plate, as if he was going to eat it next time.

In this process, Yu Shi's eyes were red when he saw it, and Luo Gong was also rare to be patient and did not urge.

The two of them didn't say anything, nor did they force it, and said that Ke Lao was reluctant to eat the whole pastry, and he should want to keep it for his grandchildren at home.

Mr. Ke took the finger of the pastry and licked it again and again, licked it cleanly, and raised his head after licking, only to realize that he had eaten half of the pastry, and it had taken him a quarter of an hour to eat!

Ke Lao panicked instantly, and when he got up, he wanted to kneel down and ask for guilt.

How did you know that Yu Shi's voice was a step faster than his movements: "It doesn't have to be like this! Ke Lao sat back and continued! ”

Ke Lao didn't dare to disobey, quickly stood up straight, and sat back in the circle chair tremblingly, not daring to delay time, and talked about the skirmish that he ignored:

"Just a few days before Lord Fangzhi was killed......"
