Everyone was startled, and suddenly turned around, only to see three people coming out of the lively people outside the hall.

A beautiful woman, with eyebrows and a superb complexion, and a very tall man, looking very young and honest, and the other with low eyebrows and pleasing to the eyes is an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, dressed like a subordinate, and the clothes are exquisite.

Everyone took a rough look, to think that these three people are very ordinary, the daughter of a big family in Xuanzhou is the appearance of the girl, but after a closer look, I feel weird, those daughters, slaves and maids, all go out with their mothers-in-law, maids, and a lot of people, but there are only three of them, and the momentum is only high, not low, which is really strange.

The three of them slowly walked into the lobby.

The county commander frowned, and forgot to stop it for a while.

"How? Interrogate the dagger, and everything will be clear, people will lie, and daggers will never lie. ”

Hongchen smiled again.

"Hmph, an object, how do you want to judge, it will not speak?"

Yin Er, who was standing on the ground, didn't speak, and the aunt and grandmother of the Yin family outside held the hand of a maid, slowly entered the door, and sneered.

The others laughed too.

Those ordinary people who don't think it's a big deal to see the excitement outside are even more chattering, talking non-stop, and some people beckoning others to come and see the excitement.

Even if it is Xuanzhou, life is boring, and there is a new thing coming out, and there are many onlookers.

Hongchen glanced at her: "Why can't the dagger speak?" Back then, Master Ge and Grandmaster Li Tao were arguing in the snow-capped mountains and were responsible for pouring tea and water. is Master Ge's high apprentice, a nine-section whip, since the nine-section whip can serve people, it is also common for the dagger to speak. ”

The eldest aunt and grandmother were startled, and suddenly looked back at Hongchen, and their faces changed slightly: "Do you still know Master Ge?" ”

"There is no class of masters, who else can not know?"

Hongchen smiled, regardless of this aunt and grandmother, and said softly.

It's kind of weird to listen to their conversation. And I heard of such strange things. The common people followed suit.

"Is there really a nine-section whip that can pour tea and water? This little girl said something very similar. ”

"That's interesting, I've only heard of animals like foxes and weasels. Even bats and the like can become sperm. I really haven't seen a nine-section whip that can work. ”

"I haven't heard anyone say it. If you want to interrogate the murder weapon, maybe we can see something new today! ”

The common people are just joking and ridiculing. For a while, the public court was not like a public court, but like a vegetable market.

The county magistrate shook his head, slapped the shocked wood, and shouted loudly: "Quiet, quiet!" ”

The official authority of the official master is not small, and everyone gradually quiets down.

Hongchen also looked up to look at the county magistrate.

He is not young, he is about fifty years old, according to common sense, he will be a county order for about a lifetime, and he will be able to survive until he has no merit or fault, and he may be able to raise a level and a half, from six or six grades.

Before coming out of the capital, Hongchen checked all the prefectures and counties near Qi County, especially those officials, and analyzed the general situation, Xuanzhou was not in the scope of her greatest concern, but the eldest girl's husband's family was from Xuanzhou, and she also made the situation in several counties in Xuanzhou and the state capital very clear.

Cui Wu, the county commander of Shangyang County, Xuanzhou, is attached to Xuanzhou, and the state capital is separated by half a street, and life is naturally not particularly good, and the brain of this county commander is also average, he is an ordinary Yonglu official, and the biggest advantage is that he is not bad enough.

Looking at the assessment of those officials, the cases that he has settled, especially the cases that are heinous and the prisoners are sentenced to death, are usually very cautious, and he has never been like other talented officials.

Many family members of the victims couldn't help complaining, after all, they all wanted to take revenge as soon as possible, but on the other hand, Hongchen valued his stability and prudence, and the verdict of the official was down, it was a living human life, a family, if it was not cautious and timid, a county order was really capable of destroying people.

Hongchen looked at Cui Wu, bowed again, and said in a loud voice: "Please also ask your lord to let the murder weapon speak in the hall." ”

Cui Wu also showed a little crying and laughing on his face, but he really didn't just blast her out as a troublemaker like other officials.

This man's nature is exactly like this, and he is not in a hurry to do anything.

"It's okay, come up with evidence."

After a short time, the official took a wooden plate and carried the murder weapon to the court.

"Woo, Dad, you died so unjustly!"

The victim's son couldn't help but sob, covering his face and whimpering, crying so much that he almost passed out.

The murder weapon was taken and placed on the ground.

When the son saw it, he gritted his teeth and was full of resentment.

The county commander sighed: "You all see, this thing is a murder weapon, with the words Yin family engraved on it, and the Yin family patriarch has been asked to identify it, there is no doubt about it, but the name on it has been blurred and cannot be repaired, but only your three brothers can have it in the world, the eldest son died at an early age, and the dagger was also buried with him, and there are only two left in the world." ”

Yin Erden took out the dagger in his arms and presented it: "Back to my lord, the villain's dagger has not been lost." ”

Yin San's face changed greatly, and he said angrily: "That's obviously mine!" ”

Hongchen didn't wait for them to continue arguing, so he said, "My lord, please also interrogate the murder weapon and ask who it belongs to!" ”

The county order was stunned.

Yin Er sneered: "Pretend to be a ghost!" ”

The eldest aunt and grandmother also said: "I came to see what tricks you can play, thinking that by reading a few public case books, you can judge the case and make a person, and there is a master of solving the case, interrogating chickens and ducks, serving the big punishment, and looking at its feces to know who the owner is, but now it is a dead thing here, can you still let it speak?" If you want to play tricks to deceive people, then you better be careful, adults are aware of everything, we are not blind, it's not that easy! ”

The people outside suddenly realized that they didn't know much and didn't know what magical methods they had used to solve cases, but when they heard this, they could also understand that maybe the little girl wanted to use some tricks.

The Yin family is also a scholarly family, and women also read a lot. This aunt and grandmother don't look very immature, and she is also a full reader of poetry and books.

She glanced at Hongchen and made an expression that I had already expected everything, and you can't play tricks, but she secretly glared at Yin Er, and said loudly: "The real murderer must be Yin San, I can testify, Yin Er was with me when the case happened." ”

This is a reminder, don't care what Hongchen says. He just had to bite to death.

Yin San's face changed slightly. Worried, he didn't know what this wife and sister were going to do...... It's hard to get upset.

Hongchen smiled, turned his head and looked at Luo Niang, who had already heard stupidly: "Did you hear it, you can't treat the world as fools." There are many capable people in the world. In the past, an official once interrogated a piece of big bluestone. It is indeed useless to teach some hooligans who pick quarrels and provoke troubles a lesson, and to meet smart people and fool people. Fortunately, I am a spiritual master, not a smart person, and I don't know any strategy, and now I say let the dagger identify its master, and it will not dare not distinguish it. ”

After speaking, he raised his head and looked at the county order: "Please ask your lord about the case." ”

Everyone was stunned.

This woman is so confident!

However, most people think it is ridiculous, purely for the sake of excitement, and Yin Er rolled his eyes with a look of disdain.

The county magistrate shook his head, and somehow, when he looked at the little woman's eyes, he was actually interested, and he really patted the shocked wood seriously, and said officially: "You dagger, from the truth, who instructed you to kill Zhang Quan?" ”

……

Of course, there was silence.

Everyone exhaled softly, laughing and laughing, and for some reason, they couldn't help but look at the dagger just now, as if that thing could really speak.

The aunt sneered and snorted.

Yin Er laughed even more, shaking his head while laughing: "I answered for it, it must be Yin Xian's, his own things, he can't recognize it?" ”

Hongchen ignored it, walked over and looked at the dagger, took the burden handed over by Luo Niang, and said coldly: "Your mouth is hard enough, no matter if you don't see the coffin, you won't shed tears, I will lock up your little black room and let you taste it." ”

As she spoke, she leaned down and untied her wrapper.

In an instant, everyone gasped.

It was a jade box of mutton fat and white jade, although it was plain, and it was not very luxurious to look at, but such a large piece, I am afraid that it can only be seen in the powerful families and palaces in the capital.

Hongchen opened the lid casually, picked up the dagger and stuffed it in, buzzing, I don't know if it was everyone's illusion, for a moment, it seemed to hear the dagger chirping.

As soon as he put it in, the lid of the box had not yet been closed, and with a whoosh, the dagger rose out of thin air and flew in front of Yin Er, with a cold light, illuminating his eyebrows.

Everyone: "......"

Yin Er was so frightened that he pounced and fell, and the dagger also flew downward, still spinning in front of his eyes.

"You, what the hell are you doing?"

Yin Er's voice trembled, and it was very difficult.

Hongchen smiled: "What is a trick, I think this dagger wants to be opened, sensible, and decided to confess, my lord, how about you ask again?" ”

The county order is also big-headed, and he stares in confusion, but he has been an official for many years, and it is rare to encounter this kind of miracle, maybe he can be in the history books, and his brain is hot, so he really said loudly: "Lie down the murder weapon, recruit from the truth, who is your master?" ”

Before the words fell, I saw the dagger flicker, nodded at Yin Er, and rushed forward all of a sudden, marking a word on his clothes a few times - 'Lord'!

Apparently recognized him as the master.

The people present, along with the people outside, were all dumbfounded and dumbfounded.

The eldest aunt and grandmother were also pale and dumbfounded: "Ridiculous...... Ridiculous, my lord, is there any reason in the world? A dagger can also correct people? ”

"Well, even if the dagger can't point to people."

Hongchen didn't care, smiled softly, and then straightened his face, and his eyes fell lightly on the eldest aunt and grandmother, "The day of the murder was June 11, this lady, you went to the Butterfly Shuangfei Teahouse in the evening to talk with people for three hours, do you want me to really find the witness to confront in court?" ”

The aunt's pupils constricted, but she lowered her head and said softly: "It's my mistake......

Die Shuangfei is a teahouse, but unlike other teahouses, it pays great attention to confidentiality, all private rooms do not allow people other than guests to step into a step, generally talk about a business, the kind that must be kept secret, many guests are willing to go there.

If this person goes to that place to talk about things, maybe he will not be an outsider. But she is so neatly subdued, and it is not a small matter to think about it.

"It seems that this lady is not suitable to be a witness, if you remember something wrong at every turn, I'm afraid the county master won't be able to believe you."

Hongchen sighed.

Yin Er's face changed drastically, and he looked up in disbelief.

The county magistrate thought about it, did not continue the interrogation, and retreated.

However, this matter is almost a foregone conclusion, the county master is a cautious person, and he will not let Yin San go at this time. And even if he didn't kill anyone. It is also a crime to confess to others and deceive the government, and I am afraid that I will have to pay a fine to avoid prison.

The murder took place in full view of everyone. Check it out carefully. There is no reason why the real culprit cannot be found. The danger at this time is just that Yin San confessed his guilt too quickly, and the yamen didn't have the heart to go deeper.

Hongchen left the yamen. didn't go back with Jiang Zhuang and them, the eldest girl was still in a daze, and asked her father to drag her home to rest in the morning.

"Miss?"

Luo Niang took out an umbrella and opened it.

It was drizzling from the sky.

"Go to Yin's house."

Hongchen exhaled, "It's time to help the eldest sister bring Wenwen and Yuanyuan back." ”

In case that old man Yin has a hole in his brain, and the dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, it will be a troublesome thing to threaten Yin San with a child like Yin Er said.

Facts have proved that Hongchen may think well, but there is still a reasonable person in the Yin family, when she went, the Xu family detained the two children by her side, and asked them to paint red, these two children are nurses, Mama can't take them at all, one is crying, but he is honest around Xu.

Some people are born to subdue any little devil.

Hongchen handed the post in, and Xu Shifu was slightly infected with the wind and cold, and he couldn't see the guests, so he asked the aunt and grandmother to send the child out.

"My sister is kind-hearted, even if it is a divorced woman, but in the end, she is the child's mother, let her see if she wants to see it, these two children are our Yin family's species in the final analysis, and she can only look at it."

The eldest aunt and grandmother sneered.

As soon as Hongchen heard it, he heard something different from her words, so that if he didn't have a verbal dispute with her at this time, the child would take it back first.

On the second day, the yamen released Yin San.

This time, the county order is very efficient, which shows that he is not really stupid.

The murderer was undoubtedly confirmed by Yin De, the verdict was announced in the court, and the Yin family spent a lot of silver to make it, but this is a homicide, and the Yin family has not yet had the face to ask His Majesty for pardon, even if it is dead.

When Yin Sanyi came back, the eldest girl rushed out with the two children, and the family of four hugged and cried directly at the door of the restaurant, like a new life.

The people of Jiangjiazhuang all gathered around, and they were also happy.

The onlookers couldn't help but sigh, this group of people, obviously looking like a rough village girl from the countryside, didn't expect to mess up the Yin family and turn the case over, which is amazing!

This case is also very novel, and the well-informed found out in the morning.

As he was talking, a group of people came from the Haohao soup outside.

Hongchen glanced at it and sighed, "It's a bit troublesome." ”

At a glance, you can know that it is the royal relatives, aunts and grandmothers, and the chief housekeeper of the Yin family who came in a soft sedan chair.

Master Yin didn't show up.

As soon as the aunt and grandmother came, they didn't see Hongchen and their group, and after a while, Hulala, the prefect of Xuanzhou Mansion, came out with a group of officials to greet them.

The prefect smiled all over his face: "Forgive your sins, forgive your sins, Xiao should have visited Mrs. Wu a long time ago, but he was afraid of disturbing Mrs. Wu's purity, so he didn't arrive for a long time." ”

The eldest aunt and grandmother raised their eyebrows: "I don't have anything to be clean, I worry about some messy things all day long." ”

The two exchanged pleasantries, and the people around them were stunned.

That's the prefect!

In Xuanzhou, the prefect is the Emperor of the Soil, and everyone who gossiped at the beginning shut up, and even the people around Yin San and the big girl were scattered.

Even those people in the Jiang family muttered in their hearts.

The eldest aunt and grandmother said a few words, then turned her head and glanced at Yin San, and sneered: "You don't have a small face, let me come and pick up your child in person, pick up your child and go with me." ”

Yin Sanyi trembled and gritted his teeth, he would inevitably be punished if he went back this time.

But he is the Yin family, and Master Yin is his father, even if he establishes a family branch and a separate residence, then he is also a member of the Yin family, not to mention the prestige of this aunt and grandmother, I am afraid that no one in the entire Xuanzhou will dare not give her face, if she doesn't go back today, a charge of disobedience and unfilial piety will be pressed down, and I don't know what chaos will happen.

"Don't be afraid, big girl, let's go see my father and mother first."

The eldest girl shook her head: "I'm not afraid." ”

Yin San held his wife in one hand and his son in the other. The eldest girl took her daughter's hand and wanted to go back.

The eldest aunt and grandmother laughed: "In front of the public, what kind of words are pulling and pulling, Brother Xian, don't forget, now this woman has nothing to do with our Yin family, the letter of resignation has been written, the old testimony of the clan, what, you still want to ruin the reputation of others?" Let her come to our Yin family as a concubine? ”

She raised an eyebrow. looked the big girl up and down. "It's not impossible, sign the deed first, and then say, our virtuous brother hasn't married a wife yet, so he doesn't need a good concubine."

The big girl was stupid.

Yin San's face turned red: "It is expedient to divorce his wife. It's not my intention. That doesn't count! ”

"Why don't you count?"

The eldest aunt and grandmother sneered. "The letter of resignation has been written, and she is no longer a member of the Yin family."

"I'll remarry her!" Yin San saw that the eldest girl's face was pale, and his heart hurt even more. Hurriedly squeezed her hand, "Don't be afraid, it's a big deal that we will get married again, and you will be a bride again." ”

The eldest girl smiled slightly, and a blush appeared on her face.

The eldest aunt covered her lips: "It's time for you to marry, the so-called parents' order, the words of the matchmaker, I know a good family, the niece of the prefect, five out of twenty, gentle and lovely, so please ask the prefect to be a big matchmaker and let your father marry you home, how about it?" ”

The prefect laughed and said, "Since Mrs. has spoken, Xiao doesn't dare to disobey." ”

The eldest girl's whole person was soft, Yin Sanyi grabbed it, and her face changed suddenly.

Hongchen shook his head, from beginning to end, the eldest aunt and grandmother only thought that she didn't exist, blinked, and laughed softly: "I see that the prefect is not the life of the media, it is better to be careful." ”

The prefect was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look at her.

Hongchen said solemnly: "I'm not scaring you, just now, the corners of your mouth suddenly turned blue, or turned sharply, within today, there will definitely be injuries, be careful." ”

"Alarmist."

The prefect frowned, obviously very uninterested in these gods, every time he went out, he hugged each other, guarded a lot, Xuanzhou was peaceful, what could be any injury, turned his head and smiled at the lady, "Madam, my niece married into the Yin family, you have to take care of one or two, she is a little squeamish, but she is a good child." ”

"It's good to be squeamish, that's everyone's style, and it's not that kind of village woman, whose daughter is not pampered?"

When the prefect heard this, he was happy, and he was laughing, and a flock of birds flew from nowhere, and bird droppings splashed, just splashing on his hair, and he was a little clean, and he instinctively stepped back in disgust, but he stepped on a stone under his feet, and with a pop, the whole person fell backwards, and the back of his head hit the ground.

The ground of the big bluestone, coupled with some gravel, directly flowed blood, and Venus appeared in front of him, and he was dizzy.

Everyone: "......"

The officials rushed over, they didn't dare to help for a while, their faces changed suddenly, and blood flowed everywhere, which hurt their heads!

"Injuries? Sure enough, there is an injury! ”

The group looked at each other and was stunned on the spot.

There was a mess around, Hongchen touched his nose, and he was a little sneering, this really didn't do her business.

At this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance, far and near, extremely fast, and the back was panting and drilled in a master, seeing his own prefect fall to the ground, bleeding all over his face, but he didn't care about looking for a doctor for a while, and said urgently: "Oh, my lord, the county lord's mother's car is not far outside Xuanzhou City, and a general has already brought people into the city lightly, and it will be there soon, and your old man should not hurry up to greet him!" ”

This time, the prefect looked for Mrs. Wu, just to welcome the county lord's mother together, and the female dependents of Xuanzhou Mansion who have heads and faces must always accompany them.

The county lord suddenly turned to Xuanzhou. They got the notice from above, everyone came, this time was a little nervous, but I felt that I was ready enough, but I didn't expect the other party to speed up and speed up, and the master scratched his head for a while, for fear that he would be sluggish and dissatisfied.

The prefect suddenly remembered the matter, he couldn't be surprised, let alone the pain, covered his head and sat up, and smiled bitterly at the lady: "Look at this trouble, my appearance is really unsightly, I don't know if the county lord will be annoyed, the lady has seen the world, and you have to come forward to receive it." ”

The eldest aunt and grandmother showed a very reserved smile, glanced at Hongchen and them, and raised her chin: "You are a little crooked and heretical, but you are too evil, the noble person is coming, don't accidentally attract the eyes of the noble, my lord, why should the street be cleaned first, so that someone will not collide with the county lord's car." ”

Hongchen sighed: "It's too hard to work for the people and lose money." ”

"Hmph." The aunt of the Yin family sneered lightly, "What do you and others know?" The county lord is the cloud in the sky, and you are the mud on the earth, put you in front of the county lord, if I am the county lord, I must be angry. ”

Hongchen: "......"

Luo Niang lowered her head and smiled. (To be continued.) )
