Qi Wang's death in the cell was not deliberately concealed, and since he was arrested, there were people in the town who guarded outside the yamen, hoping that the meritorious official would deal with it impartially. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Due to the anger of the people and the pressure of the Baikong family, even if he knew that there was someone else standing behind Qi Wang, the official master was ready to use his fists.

Unexpectedly, before anything was implemented, Qi Wang committed suicide.

The most disappointed people are naturally those who are in pain and lose their children, it is not a pity to die, and they die so easily, and it is difficult to understand the hatred in their hearts.

At this time, the official master was also full of sorrow, and he was determined to sell face to the two Baikong families, which was good, not to mention that Qi Wang was still dead.

Although there are rumors that the prisoner committed suicide in fear of sin, he knows very well what it is.

He has been a parent official for many years and has seen many wounds, and the scar on Qi Wang's neck will definitely not be a suicide.

"Lord County Commander, Qi Wang's body has been disposed of, is it okay to be buried?" The official asked.

Lord Zeng's eyes widened, and he said, "What kind of burial is it, just throw it at the mass grave." ”

At this juncture, he still wants to be in the ground, and he is really known by those Diao people outside, maybe he will make a big fuss, and he will be able to enter Beijing in a few months, and if he can't get an excellent class, he can stay in Beijing, but he can't be affected at the last moment.

It is precisely because of this that he wanted to use the relationship behind Qi Wang before, so that he would have a greater chance of staying in Shangjing.

Zeng You naturally wouldn't think that just one mouth would affirm that the person standing behind Qi Wang must be a person in a high position, completely because of a jade pendant.

He reached into the cuff and rubbed his fingers against a hard object inside, a small one, and the belly of his hand was smooth to the touch.

Zeng You knew that he could be a parent official, and it was completely by his father-in-law.

Yuezhang is an official in Beijing, although his position is not high, but the people and things he has come into contact with are the envy of foreign officials.

It's a pity that Uncle Yue is old, and now he is idle at home, and he can't trust a relationship to activate his connections.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of relying on a human trafficker.

Ten years ago, in Shangjing's Yuezhang's mansion, he once saw a man, looking at his age, but the father-in-law who was still serving at that time bent over him to please, smiling with a bright face, Zeng You didn't know who that person was, he also asked his father-in-law, but he still couldn't ask, but just by looking at the posture, you can know that it is extraordinary.

It was also that extraordinary, Zeng You looked at the man carefully behind his back.

And what impressed him the most was the jade pendant hanging from the man's waist.

That jade pendant was naturally different from what he saw now, there was a big difference in the material alone, but the appearance carved on it was the same.

Different from the common dragons, phoenixes, and Xiangyun, the jade pendant is carved with a blooming flower.

The patterns on the jade pendant are not good-looking, they are very monotonous, and they can even be seen at random in the streets and alleys, which are the peaks near Yuanli Town, and there are all over the mountains at a glance.

The reason why he noticed it was because he felt that it was a tyrannical thing, and such a good piece of jade material was actually made like this.

When he saw the jade pendant that had been found on Qi Wang's body, he immediately thought of the man.

"My lord, the Bai family is here."

Zeng You came over in a panic, his fingers pinched the hard object in his hand, and after a moment, he let go and took out the jade pendant, and said: "This thing is the prisoner's property, you take it, and the thing will be returned to its original owner." ”

Qi Wang is dead, no matter what he thought before, it is now a foregone conclusion, it is better to give the Bai family a hint, so I hope that the people of the Bai family can remember him well.

……

Not long after the Bai family left the yamen, the officials in the yamen informed the people that the body of Qi Wang, the prisoner who committed suicide, had been thrown into the mass grave, but who would know the truth.

It was rare for the Lu family not to stay in the iron shop, she stood outside the yamen, surrounded by crowded people, and it was very happy to hear the disappearance of the official messenger.

Fortunately, a few brothers were smart and escaped in time, otherwise there would be no consequences, but I felt scared when I thought about it.

After hearing the news, she turned around and squeezed out of the crowd, and Lu Shi was not joining in the fun, and walked towards the shop.

Now the business of the shop is getting better and better, and last night she counted most of the night with silver and copper plates, and the results almost scared her.

After a busy day, I almost didn't even have a rest, and I actually had an income of half a tael of silver.

Happy is happy, but in the end it is still a little difficult, the new brother has to go to the furnace room to strike iron, she is alone in the shop, and she doesn't even have a convenient time when she is busy, so she is afraid that there is no one to guard the cotton in the shop.

But even so, when there are many guests who come to the door, she is also busy and in a hurry, and it is easy to go wrong when she is in a hurry.

She is illiterate, and her arithmetic is even worse, when there are few people, she is fine, and she can count several times in a row, and when she waits for more people, she has time to recalculate, and several of them have gone wrong.

Some of the guests are okay and will speak out, but some, as soon as the money is put in their waist pockets, they go out silently.

Once, there was one less hoe in the shop, and needless to say, I knew that someone took advantage of her inattention to catch it, and the money was paid in advance by Lu Shi out of his own pocket.

It hurts when I think about it, but I can't send someone out at home.

Naturally, it is not feasible for Dad and Mother, and Qiwen is now busy with the fields in the village, and even when he lives in the town, he is very little.

And the second brother and sister said before, but now they can't wait to guard their two sons all the time, for fear that they will lose people if they don't pay attention.

Xiang Han can, but I don't know if she wants to avoid suspicion, she mentioned it a few times, but Xiang Han shook her hand and refused.

Along the way, Lu Shi just didn't think of a way to get out, she walked outside the shop, watching people coming and going, the new brother was even more busy and couldn't turn around, and she didn't know whether to laugh or worry.

It's a big deal to spend some money on someone.

Lu Shi thought that although she asked for a salary, every time she miscalculated the accounts and lost objects, she could almost pay a salary if they were scattered together.

And if she hires a worker, she can be much more relaxed, not to mention, and she can learn to be a housekeeper in other people's homes.

The more he thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and Lu Shi suddenly felt relaxed, and he couldn't wait to go home and discuss it with his father and mother immediately.

Again, if you really want to invite someone, naturally you can't invite outsiders, her mother's nephew is a lot, any one of them is clever and sensible, pick one over, not only can share the burden for her mother's family, but also let her mother's family look down on her.

If you want to say that it is easy to find money in the town, it is only some short-term work, and if the people of the village want to find such an easy and decent job in the town, then not everyone can do it. (To be continued.) )
