119. June 10 Yin I guarded a comrade-in-arms who was killed
Early the next morning, Song Beiyun was found by Yang Xiancheng just after breakfast, and he came with some files, which recorded some trivial things that happened in the county these days.
Because the county order is not there, it is all handled by the county on behalf of the county, and now the new county order needs to be reviewed, and Song Beiyun didn't even look at it, just waved his hand and said: "Brother Yang is in charge." ”
In the face of the lazy county order, as a county magistrate, he could be removed from power with a report letter, but Yang County Cheng was reluctant, really reluctant. This is simply a god-given pig's head, and it must be well protected, if this person is here, from the perspective of Yang Xiancheng, it is even more comfortable than being a county magistrate himself.
If something happens, someone will stand up to it, and if you don't have an accident, you will make a lot of money by yourself, where to find this kind of good thing. As for his official career, where is there any official career, he has become like this, he has no friends in the court, he is a jinshi at the age of nineteen, an official at the age of twenty-two, and now he is ten years old but he is still a county prince, and he is hopeless in this life, it is better to follow the squire Haoqiang to make some money and silver behind him.
If this person has no desire, he will do nothing, as long as this county order does not hinder his way to wealth, it is easy to say, and it is not impossible to even mention him.
"If you don't read this file, then it's time for me to go."
"Look at the dead......"
Seeing Song Beiyun's face full of death, Yang Xiancheng didn't react at all, he almost took Song Beiyun out of the county office.
Although the results of the investigation have been released and reported, according to the usual practice, the new county order is to be tested again, at least to show off the appearance of people.
So no matter what Song Beiyun thought, Yang Xiancheng still pushed him out.
The two of them took the official errand to the pond where the accident occurred, and after these days of wind and rain, the traces that should have existed have long been gone, and they can't see anything at all.
"At that time, Lord Huang drowned here."
Song Beiyun let out a bored sigh, squatted next to him, picked up the stone and threw it down, like a bored child.
Seeing his behavior, Yang Xiancheng chuckled: "My lord, do you want to check it?" ”
"How do you check?" Song Beiyun got up: "Where to look?" ”
"Just look around and see if there's any clue."
Song Beiyun listened to his words and turned around, but he either raised his hand to grab the leaves or raised his foot to kick the stones, looking extremely boring and boring.
But as he walked, he suddenly stumbled and stepped into the air, and almost landed in the pond, but fortunately he was lying on all fours and was quickly pulled up by the official.
"My lord, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Song Beiyun patted the mud on his body: "If you don't pay attention, I'll go change my clothes." ”
Yang Xiancheng looked at this evil obstacle, it was really no way at all, so he had to say that he would wait here and let someone escort Song Beiyun back.
After Song Beiyun went back, he entered the room, and he didn't rush to change his clothes, but quickly drew the location of the pond on the map just now, and according to the results of his wandering in the past two days, he had roughly drawn the surrounding terrain.
"These people don't know anything after all." Song Beiyun handed the drawn picture to Qiaoyun: "Sister Qiaoyun, this must be kept, only you can reassure me." ”
"Hmm." Qiao Yun asked while changing his clothes, "With your skills, you won't fall like this, you did it on purpose?" ”
"Hmm." Song Beiyun stretched out his arms and let Qiaoyun tie him: "I want to try to see if I will drown if I fall into the water, I tried to imitate it just now, and found that even if it is carried headlong, it is impossible to roll into the pond, and they said that it was slipping before, so it is even more impossible, the puddle is still some distance away from the place where it stumbled." ”
Qiao Yun nodded and said, "That must be the removal of the corpse after killing." ”
"Not necessarily, you can only be sure when you see the corpse, but now the corpse is very decomposed, and it is difficult to judge. can only ask the servants, but the servants are obviously their people. ”
"And what should you do?"
Song Beiyun smiled: "Take your time, we have half a year." ”
Qiaoyun tidied up his clothes: "Be careful. ”
"Hmm."
Song Beiyun, who reappeared in Yang County, stayed away from the pond with a disgusted expression, and shouted there twenty meters away: "Brother Yang, let's go." ”
Yang Xiancheng nodded, and continued to take Song Beiyun to the next point, that is, the place where the county commander's wife was before, after all, as a new official, Song Beiyun was going to come to interrogate.
Coming to a small courtyard in the county, Yang Xiancheng knocked on the door and walked in with Song Beiyun, and the moment Song Beiyun saw the woman, he felt that something might be wrong, because the woman's eyes were dull, and there were bruises on her wrists and neck, judging from the spread of the bruises, it had been eight to nine days, that is to say, on the second or third day after the death of the previous county commander, such scars appeared on her body.
Judging by the marks, the neck is pinched out by hand, and the wrist is the strangulation of the rope.
She had been raped.
Song Beiyun squinted his eyes slightly, then took two steps back with a look of disgust, took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and threw it to the woman: "Mourning, eldest sister." You have this silver ......."
After speaking, he was about to leave, but Yang Xiancheng asked curiously: "My lord, you haven't asked yet." ”
"I don't dare to ......" Song Beiyun whispered, his face full of timidity: "It's eerie, it's scary." ”
Yang Xiancheng looked at him like that, leaned into his ear and whispered: "Isn't the adult a good woman, don't such pretty widows have some thoughts?" She had been silent for a few days, and no one would know what the adults were doing. ”
After that, he waved his hand: "Let the adults ask alone, don't be disturbed." ”
After that, he led the people out of the small courtyard, and closed the door from the outside, and the officials showed a lewd expression, thinking that they had done this kind of thing.
Song Beiyun was in the room, with his hands on his hips, and turned his head to look at the widow, but he still maintained his previous timid and incompetent appearance, squatted on the ground and slowly took out a silver ingot and threw it at the head of the bed, and then ran away.
Seeing him open the door and run out, Yang Xiancheng couldn't help laughing, and the officials around him leaned forward and back.
"Brothers, don't tease me...... This woman is eerie, but very terrifying, I gave her some silver taels, so that she can live a good life. Song Beiyun said with palpitations: "It's good to get some girls in the yang world." ”
These words made everyone laugh, and Yang Xiancheng looked at the unpromising Song Beiyun, and he was also quite helpless: "My lord...... You're so unruly. ”
"I don't dare......" Song Beiyun pointed to himself and bowed his head: "I can't even raise my head, how can there be any rules." ”
After another burst of laughter, Yang Xiancheng also coughed again and again: "It's not such a rule, but you don't even ask, it's not in accordance with the rules." ”
"I asked, and she ignored me." Song Beiyun spread out his hand: "I asked her, what is your name, and she didn't say anything." ”
Yang County obeyed, really served. That's it, if he weren't such a person, he wouldn't be so presumptuous, and he would be relieved to think about it: "That's it, my lord, go with us to Yizhuang." ”
"Look at the dead?"
"Hmm."
"Alas......"
Song Beiyun, who sighed along the way, came to Yizhuang on the edge of the city, found the work, Yang Xiancheng whispered a few words, and then let Song Beiyun go in together, Song Beiyun twisted the corners of the clothes with two fingers throughout the whole process, and he looked like a cowardly and incompetent person.
When he came to a coffin, he pointed and said, "My lord, this is Lord Huang's body, can you check it?" ”
"No, no, no......"
Before Song Beiyun finished speaking, the lid of the coffin had been lifted, and Song Beiyun sat on the ground with a spirit, and glanced back at Yang Xiancheng, and the two showed a tacit smile.
"Your Excellency, you have to check it out." He said: "By the way, Lord County, there is a nameless corpse sent from the city today, can you go with me to see it?" ”
"I'm going to ...... too" Song Beiyun got up from the ground with a roll: "Take me." ”
Yang Xiancheng arched his hand at him and said, "My lord, the matter is urgent, you can check Lord Huang's body here, and we will come when we go." ”
After saying that, they walked straight out and closed the door, leaving Song Beiyun here alone, and when they heard the footsteps walking away, Song Beiyun smiled at the corner of his mouth.
"Stinky idiot, don't ask what Lao Tzu does."
After speaking, he took out the fish intestine gloves and put them on his fingers, put on the homemade mask, and went directly to the coffin to inspect it.
Half an hour later, Yang Xiancheng came back again, but as soon as he came back, he saw Song Beiyun sitting in the corner, with his eyes closed and chanting words in his mouth, sounding as if he was chanting scriptures, and there was a pile of broken wood and hay burning in front of him.
"Ouch, my lord, Yizhuang is not allowed to light a fire."
He stepped forward with a frightened face: "You are ......"
Song Beiyun opened his eyes: "Just pray for the blessing of the star monarch......"
Seeing his appearance, thinking of his alchemy appearance yesterday, Yang Xiancheng was really speechless, so he had to wave his hand at the servant: "That's it, the adult has just arrived, you should tell the adult." ”
"No, no, no...... If you don't listen, hurry up and bury it, bury it quickly! Bury it today! ”
It seemed that he was frightened, and his reaction was just as Yang Xiancheng wished, as long as this coffin was buried, everything would be settled.
So he hurriedly asked the official to find someone, carried the coffin out and buried it in a place that had been chosen a long time ago, and set up a monument.
"My lord, can you see the clue?"
Seeing that the new soil on the grave was photographed, Yang Xiancheng asked with a smile: "Is it true that he drowned?" ”
"Yes, yes, that's natural." Song Beiyun waved his hand again and again: "Don't mention it, don't mention it, it's very unlucky." ”
Yang Xiancheng was obviously very satisfied with Song Beiyun's reaction, and after watching his behavior that day, the slightest suspicion he still had disappeared.
"My lord, will you go home?"
"Okay, okay, I'm going to wash my bad luck quickly."
