Chapter Eighty-Seven: Illness and Death

Every time Yu Shi annoyed Luo Gong, he pretended to be vicious and raised his eyebrows. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Luo Gong actually likes to watch this kind of appearance, and he really never gets tired of watching it.

But Yushi is very annoying, because she can't please every time!

In front of outsiders, she can pretend to be ten percent, but in front of him, she doesn't always pretend to be.

It's not that her acting skills are still different, but no matter how similar she is, he always looks at her with a look of "you're acting".

Looking at it, the ruthlessness she pretended to be slowly disappeared by his determination.

Really personally!

If you don't stare at it, your eyes hurt.

Lin Chang's previous term of office was Nanli Province, and he served as the sixth grade general judge.

When the term of office of others arrives, they are not promoted and rarely demoted.

But Lin Chang was different, before his term of office expired, he was demoted and transferred to the post of magistrate of Zhusha County.

Luo Gong went to Nanli Mansion in addition to Cha Linchang, Meng Liangcai, and the man in the mask, Yu Shi thought that there should be other things.

Otherwise, when the two of them discussed, they were not in such a hurry.

Leaving so quickly should have been decided by Luo Gong temporarily, I don't know what it was for?

After Luo Gong left, Yu Shi went directly to Zhengguangtang, and told Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli that after Luo Gong went to Nanli Mansion to handle the case, she asked Wang Peng directly:

"At that time, Yangjiacun said that there were no survivors, but could there be anything missing from this?"

Wang Peng was stunned for a moment, but his heart was transparent, and then he understood the meaning of Yu Shi's words.

Zhang Gengli also paused with his hand that was flying down, and he also understood the omission in Yushi's words.

Wang Peng said: "The lower officials also hope that there is an omission, after all, it is human life, if there is really an omission, it is really an eye-opener!" ”

Zhang Gengli also said: "At the beginning, Xiaguan and Wang Xiancheng followed the Lord Chen Zhixian to Yangjia Village, when the Lord Chen Zhixian had already let people clean up the ruins of Yangjia Village, many incomplete villagers' corpses have been burned beyond recognition, only the bones remained, after cleaning up, the number of corpses was also counted on the spot, Yangjia Village 111 people, 111 bones, one is not much, one is not many. ”

He is the main secretary, and no one knows more about the registered population than him.

When he and Wang Peng rushed to Yangjia Village, it was Chen Huiyao who asked him to take someone to count the corpses.

Such a catastrophe is impressive to anyone, not to mention the number of corpses he personally ordered.

So for this point, Zhang Gengli made it clear to Yushi very firmly - yes, it will not be wrong at all!

Yu Shi didn't ask again.

Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli also continued the matter at hand.

Yu Shi was listening, and Fang Zhiduo had done a lot of miscellaneous things in the yamen in recent months.

There are no big things, but a lot of small things.

The big and small affairs in the Yazhong have been piled up since a few months ago, and there is no need for Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli to say anything, Yushi also understands why Zhusha County has been unpopular with the people for three consecutive governors.

Even the county government failed to deal with a trivial matter, let it pile up, and the people of Zhusha County are not blind and deaf, where would they recognize such a lazy and civil parent official?

It seems that what Luo Gong has decided in her heart will not be fake, and her unintentional words may really be the root cause of these three cases of copper money in the county.

With the direction, it is much easier to check.

Yu Shi sat bored in Zhengguang Hall, Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli regarded her as transparent, and she also had the right to be her own home, polishing her time at will.

It was noon, and Yu Shi followed Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli to have lunch in the side hall of Zhengguang Hall.

was drinking tea, and the official came to talk about Fang Shijun's small servant, but unfortunately it was bad news.

Yu Shi frowned: "You mean, the little guy who Fang Zhi County was with him was killed in Fang Zhi County not long ago, and he was seriously ill and died?" ”

Xiaowu's hometown is in a small suburban village far away from Zhusha County, and since Luo Gong's instructions, Wang Peng let the official run such a trip, rushing back and forth without a break, which will be a little out of breath after speaking.

Hearing Yu Shi's reconfirmation, the official didn't dare to slack off, and nodded hurriedly:

"The little one personally went to the home of the big man in Fangzhi County to see it, and asked the neighbors left and right, and they all said that the little guy was a child who had no parents, and no brothers and sisters, since he returned home in Zhusha County, he stayed at home, and even he was sick at home for many days, and no one knew, and finally the lady next door felt that he hadn't seen him for a long time, something was wrong, so she pushed the door into his house to see, this saw that he was terminally ill, and the medicine was ineffective!"

After waving his hand to let the official go down to rest, Yu Shi didn't speak for a long time.

Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli listened carefully on the side, and no matter how impenetrable people were, they could hear something, not to mention that they were not stupid.

The two of them paused even big and small matters, and waited with their hands down.

After a long time, the jade said:

"It seems that the boy with the silver mask is really suspicious!"

Yu Shi didn't hide this from the two, and asked the two of them if they had seen a masked man with such a description, and neither of them had any impression.

This will listen to the official return to Fang Shijun who died of a serious illness with his little servant, and not long after Fang Shijun was killed, there was no need for Yu Shi to say anything, the two of them were already trying to recall the masked man described by Yu Shi.

But in the end, I was not impressed.

The mind is empty, and no matter how hard the two of them try to think about it, it will be in vain.

Yu Shi asked: "Fang Shijun served a three-month term in Zhusha County, during this period, except for only bringing an old servant from the family and the little servant hired later, no one came from Jincang Mansion to wait?" ”

Wang Peng said: "No. ”

Fang Shijun's family is in Jincang Mansion, and it is not as far away from Nanli Mansion as a few counties, so far away to Zhusha County, none of his wives and concubines came to wait?

Even if the wives and concubines don't come, there should always be one or two maids waiting for them to live, why is there nothing except for an old servant?

Yu Shi asked: "After Fang Zhixian was killed, did the old servant say or do anything before returning to Jincang Mansion?" And Mrs. Fang, after coming to Zhusha County, what is abnormal? ”

Wang Peng said: "When Mrs. Fang came to take the body of Lord Fang Zhixian back for a thick burial, the old servant followed Mrs. Fang back to the Jincang Mansion, without saying a word, as for Mrs. Fang, although she looked very sad, she didn't care much about the murderer of Lord Fang Zhixian. ”

Zhang Gengli added: "Not only Mrs. Fang, but also Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Lin later, Mrs. Lin even came to collect the body of Lord Lin Zhixian in person, and did not come, but sent the housekeeper in the mansion to run this trip." ”

The world is hot and cold, people go to tea and cool, and husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes, but the three ladies of the county are really too cold.

The woman regards her husband as the sky, and the three of them not only do not chase the truth for the violent death of their deceased husband, but even more so, they don't even want to do this superficial work when they come to collect the corpse.

Now that I think about it, Chen Huiyao's blessing is thicker, and at least one of the Lu family's outer chambers has come to the yamen to cry out for him.

Although he understood halfway through, there was no injustice to shout, but after all, he had been to the Yamen, and he was sincerely sad for Chen Huiyao's death.

Yu Shi didn't stay in Zhengguang Hall anymore, she walked to the wall in front of the lobby step by step, and looked at the imperial edict monument silently.

Wang Peng sent a servant to follow secretly, and when he came back, he said to Wang Peng:

"The Lord of Qianhu didn't have a yamen, so he stood in front of the imperial edict monument, looking at the words on the wall, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he was very fascinated by it."

After the official retired, Wang Peng said to Zhang Gengli:

"The case of Tongqian Zhixian is very complicated, when Lord Chen Zhixian just had an accident, you and I wanted to investigate the case thoroughly, even if there was no obstruction of the appearance of the green snake token later, I guess you and I can't find out anything, and it will probably ......."

Wang Peng sighed, but still couldn't say the unfinished bad words.

Zhang Gengli is exquisite, much more straightforward:

"If there really wasn't that instruction note, maybe you and I would have stepped into the footsteps of the three magistrates earlier! Where is the life to wait to meet the two lords! ”

Wang Peng said: "We are sincere, and in the past two days, we have also seen some of the ways of the two lords who are officials, fortunately, we have not cast the wrong sincerity, but your and my lives are still very hanging!" ”

Zhang Gengli echoed in a deep voice: "That's true, but it doesn't matter, if I can really clear this muddy water, why not give up my life!" ”

Wang Peng patted Zhang Gengli's shoulder: "You and I already knew the depth of our lives when we entered the officialdom, as long as we can not implicate our families and do something practical for Chaoyan, it will not be in vain for you and me to study hard for ten years, and it will not be in vain for you and me to go through the world once, and become a petty official at the end of this time!" ”

Zhang Gengli hooked his shoulders with Wang Peng, Wang Peng also smiled and put his back on his back, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

It's just that in this smile, there is more bitterness and helplessness.

When Bing didn't come back, as soon as he entered the yamen and passed through the Zhaobi, he saw the jade picker standing upright in front of the Zhaobi like a stone pillar, and saluted:

"Senho-sama! Yu Keqiang has taken action! ”

Yu Shi stood in front of the wall with two teas, and when she saw that Bing had not returned, she knew that things had progressed, and Bing did not stop to salute her, but did not say the details, thinking that she wanted to treat her and Luo Gong together, and then give them together.

However, Luo Gong left early, and Bing Wei could only report to her alone.

Bing Wei was not shocked after hearing this, and seemed to be used to it:

"Since the adults have this order, Bingwei should listen to the orders of the thousand households!"

Bing Wei is Luo Gong's person, and he is the head of the pro-corps around the commander, how dare she really treat him as a Liancheng envoy, but it is still okay to give orders, and it is not that she has not done it.

Yu Shi said: "If there is anything abnormal in Yu Keqiang, let's go back to the inner office and say." ”

The two returned to the county magistrate's house, and after the official retired from serving tea, and after sitting down, Bing Wei directly said the key point:

"On the surface, Yu Keqiang is nothing suspicious, and every day is normal, except for buying and selling, but one thing is very strange, Yu Keqiang must get Huanxi Lou to drink tea and listen to music at the beginning of Shen Shi every day, and he can't move every day."

Even if the weather is bad to stormy, Yu Keqiang will definitely go on time.

Yu Shi said: "Have you checked Huanxi Building?" ”

Bingwei said: "I've checked, every time Yu Keqiang returns to Huanxi Building, it seems that he goes to Xiaoliuying to drink Xiaoqu in Huanxi Building, and he deliberately holds it, but in fact, he has a close relationship with Tian Daming, the shopkeeper of Huanxi Building, under the cover of Xiaoliuying. ”

Yu Keqiang thought that he was doing it very secretively, and in the eyes of others, it was indeed secret, and no one knew that his relationship with Tian Daming was not simple.

But Bing is no different, he is a good detective stalker, and his head is smart, and the two cities can't catch up with him with a head.

Such a thing, if Liancheng is allowed to do it, it can be found out, but it will take a long time.

Sooner or later, the question is closely related when it is critical.

Yu Shi took a sip of the tea, and motioned to Bing Wei to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat.

Bingwei was also obedient, and really took a sip of tea before continuing:

"The owner behind Huanxi Building, I have also checked, it is ......"

Speaking of which, Bing didn't hesitate a little, this really doesn't look like his character.

Yu Shi rolled her eyes, thinking of Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli mentioning her aunt Yao Meiling before, she couldn't help but sink her face:

"Does it have anything to do with me?"

Yu Shi said so, and Bingwei had nothing to hesitate about, so he simply said:

"It's really related to adults, Huanxilou is one of the dowries of Yao Meiling, the wife of Meng Zhifu."

If Wang Peng and Zhang Gengli had taboos against Yushi because of Yao Meiling, she would still feel a little ridiculous in her heart, and felt that the two of them really underestimated her.

However, this will involve a Huanxi Building, and Huanxi Building is exactly Yao Meiling's wedding teahouse, and Tian Daming, the shopkeeper of Huanxi Building, has a very shallow relationship with Yu Keqiang, and Yu Shi doesn't want to think in a bad direction, but he is just deceiving himself!

Yu Shi asked: "Yu Keqiang goes to Huanxi Building every day to connect with Tian Daming, can you know what they said and did?" ”

Bing Wei said: "I've heard it a few times, it's all inconsequential things, and it's no different from a normal teahouse shopkeeper who warmly entertains distinguished guests." ”

No difference?

That is to say, what should have been done has passed, and there is no need to talk about it again.

And the new instructions have not yet come down.

Or......

As soon as a trace of luck floated in his heart, Yu Shi hurriedly suppressed this thought.

If you are mentally prepared in advance, and then make a foolproof plan for backup, this is the right reason.

Self-deception and evasion will not solve the problem.

What's more, Luo Gong didn't say with certainty that her uncle Meng Liangcai could not be the murderer?

She believes in Luo Gong like that, why not believe it again this time?

Yu Shi said: "The matter between Yu Keqiang and Tian Daming, you follow, what is abnormal immediately come to me, Liancheng now went to Yangjia Village to investigate Yu Keqiang's deceased wife, when Liancheng has a result, and there are no other clues to be found in Zhusha County, we will set off together for Nanli Mansion!" ”

Bing Wei had no objections, and took the order and went out of the yamen again.

Yu Shi was lying on the chaise longue by the window, supporting her head with one hand, her eyes closed, and her calm and delicate and picturesque face could be seen as long as she looked closely, and her slightly frowning brows had not been released since the ice had not left.

Yushi is not the real Yushi after all, she is the princess of Yingguo Wentai two hundred years ago.

She actually has no impression of her biological mother Yao in this life, and only finds the woman who always calls her "Little Yuer" with a smile in some of the images left by the original owner for her from childhood to adulthood.

Bright-eyed, dignified, virtuous, virtuous, her mother.
