Because he wanted to force Chen Guangrong to officially take refuge in him, instead of currying favor with a penny of leeway like now.

Unlike Wei Peng's panicked face, even if Gongsun Jian was anxious, he would not show it on his face.

Therefore, he put down the information in his hand unhurriedly, smiled lightly and said, "Deacon Wei, don't be in a hurry if you have anything, speak slowly." ”

Maybe it was because Gongsun Jian's appearance infected Wei Peng, or maybe he figured it out himself.

After taking a deep breath, he spoke, "My lord, the county guard's mansion has been stolen. ”

Gongsun Jian's heart tightened, and he quickly looked at him, "Are you sure?" ”

"Yes, my lord, the official family of the county guard just came to report the case, and something was lost in the house." Wei Peng hurriedly said.

Hearing Wei Peng's affirmative answer, Gongsun Jian's heart was a little panicked.

After all, the county guard lost something, and things seem to be ordinary, but the meaning of this represents is not ordinary.

To put it mildly, it's just a matter of throwing something.

But to put it mildly, it is Gongsun Jian, the head of the criminal department, who has not done a good job.

Although he has only been transferred for a long time, he is the head of the criminal department after all, and he is in charge of all the security in Linlang County.

Moreover, someone dares to steal in such a well-defended place as the county guard's house. The rest of the place can be imagined, and it is certainly not the same.

Even, even if Gongsun Jian perfectly cracked the theft case, there is also a saying about what was stolen from the county guard's mansion.

Ordinary things are fine, but if something is stolen is worth a fortune, or something is found in the county guard's mansion, Chen Zhi, a county guard, will not be able to hold.

What should Gongsun Jian do with it?

Of course, this is Gongsun Jian's worst guess, after all, the county guard has already sent people over, so it means that even some things that shouldn't have have been put away.

I thought a lot in my heart, but Gongsun Jian didn't forget what he was doing, and with a wave of his hand, he called Gu Qing, who was excited, and walked out with Wei Peng.

As soon as he walked to the hall of the Criminal Division, Gongsun Jian saw a middle-aged man in brocade clothes, waiting there with an anxious face.

After seeing Gongsun Jian coming, he thought for a while, and then trotted over.

The middle-aged man saluted Gongsun Jian, and then hurriedly said, "But Gongsun is in charge?" Chen Qiang, the villain's county housekeeper. ”

Seeing that he was so polite, Gongsun Jian naturally would not turn a blind eye, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Steward Chen, this official is Gongsun Jian." ”

In fact, just looking at this Chen Qiang's posture, Gongsun Jian can understand that this Chen Zhi's method of managing people must be very powerful.

is the so-called seven-rank official in front of the prime minister, although Chen Zhi is not the prime minister, but he is also the principal of Linlang County, so it stands to reason that Chen Qiang should be very bullish.

However, seeing that he didn't put his posture high at all, it was obvious that Chen Zhi, the old man, was very powerful in managing people.

Chen Qiang may be in a hurry because the matter is too urgent, and he doesn't want to greet Gongsun Jian, so he hurriedly said the purpose: "Gongsun is in charge, hurry up and go to the house with the little one." ”

nodded, Gongsun Jian didn't dare to slack off, after all, this was going to the county guard mansion to handle the case for his top boss, so no matter whether he was in a hurry or not, he had to show an anxious expression on his face.

Although Chen Zhi is about to become a county guard, there are still a few years after all?

If Gongsun Jian doesn't want everything to go wrong in the past few years, then he must behave well in front of others.

Let Chen Zhi understand that his Gongsun Jian is very willing to do things for the county guard.

Therefore, I quickly called a few deacons and went to the county guard's mansion.

It's just that he didn't call the officials, because Gongsun Jian wanted his deacons to behave.

As for the officials, after all, they are not officials, and their personalities are not enough, so it is easy to get into trouble.

After all, if they really find something at that time, these deacons will never say it as long as they still want to mix.

But the officials are different, although they have also entered the officialdom of the Great Zhou, they do not have scruples like the deacons after all, so when they find something, it is easy to say that they will leak their mouths.

At the beginning, several deacons who were called in to handle the case had a lot of complaints in their hearts.

However, when they heard that they were going to the county guard to handle the case, the reluctance in their hearts immediately disappeared.

is even full of gratitude to Gongsun Jian,

In the past, the county guard mansion was not something that they could enter, but this time, under the banner of handling cases, they could not only satisfy the curiosity in their hearts, but also behave in front of the county guard.

When the time comes, it will be fancied, and then the future will be limitless.

Therefore, although several deacons were wearing seven-rank official uniforms, they were holding things that only the officials had held in the past.

Regarding Gongsun Jian's behavior, Chen Qiang naturally saw it, but he didn't say anything.

After all, the only thing he needs now is for Gongsun Jian to retrieve the things lost in the county guard's mansion, otherwise his position as a housekeeper will not be stable.

Although the group has their own thoughts, because the matter is important, the speed will naturally not be slow.

It didn't take long for him to come to the outside of the county guard's mansion near the county yamen.

Gongsun Jian of the county guard came once last time when he came to give some gifts, so he was no stranger.

It's just that today is different from usual, and although no one can enter the county watchman's mansion in the past, the gate is indeed open.

And this time the door was closed, and it was not until Chen Qiang knocked on the door that two servants guarding the door opened the door.

Seeing this posture of strict defense, Gongsun Jian's heart was cold.

An unfortunate thought arose in an instant.

If nothing else, the things that the county guard lost must be extraordinary.

Because he was in a hurry just now, Gongsun Jian didn't ask Chen Qiang what the county guard had lost from Chen Qiang's mouth.

In a panic, he followed Chen Qiang into the county guard's mansion, and after walking a short distance, he came to the hall.

It's just that what makes Gongsun Jian very strange is that there are quite a lot of people in the hall, but there is no county guard Chen Zhi.

Fortunately, Chen Qiang on the side finally explained to Gongsun Jian.

"Gongsun is in charge, the county guard is busy with official business and it is inconvenient to come over, so let the little one ask you to investigate the case." Chen Qiang said respectfully to Gongsun Jian.

Although Gongsun Jian was a little disappointed by this, after all, the county guard was not there, and no one could see him if he wanted to behave?

Of course, although he thought so in his heart, he quickly asked his own questions.

"Dare to ask Steward Chen, what did you lose? Make the entire county guard so nervous? ”

After all, he is not a county guard, so Gongsun Jian asked more daringly.

If the county was guarding here, Gongsun Jian would never dare to ask that.

"Gongsun is in charge, the things lost in the house are very unusual, I hope you can keep it secret." Chen Qiang did not directly answer Gongsun Jian's question, but put forward the condition of secrecy.

Gongsun Jian was nervous when he said this, this is all required to be kept secret, that thing must be unusual!

Although he was a little afraid, Gongsun Jian also hurriedly said: "Steward Chen, don't worry, I will definitely keep it secret." ”

After speaking, Gongsun Jian glanced at the deacons brought over behind him, and those deacons also promised again and again that they would not leak secrets.

At this time, Gongsun Jian was very glad that he didn't bring the officials over, otherwise today's incident would definitely be spread.

Hearing Gongsun Jian's assurance, Steward Chen nodded reassuringly, and then said something that made Gongsun Jian a little surprised.

"Gongsun is in charge, what was lost in the house was a jade pendant."

"Jade pendant?"

Gongsun Jian was surprised in his heart, just a piece of jade pendant, there is no need to be so nervous, right?

But before Gongsun Jian was surprised, Chen Qiang over there finally explained why he was so nervous.

His words made Gongsun Jian directly change from nervousness to panic.

"Gongsun is in charge, and an ordinary jade pendant will naturally not make the house like a great enemy. But this jade pendant is a reward from the official family! Can we not be nervous? Chen Qiang hurriedly explained the reason, and after speaking, he bowed in the direction of the capital.

Rewarded by the officials!

At this time, not only Gongsun Jian was shocked, but even the several deacons who came with him were also the same.

After all, if you lose the things that the official family personally rewarded, it is an ordinary loss at best, but if you say it is big, it is a lack of attention to the official family!

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the same as in the ancient times of Gongsun Jian's previous life, the emperor was also called the Son of Heaven.

Although it is said that the atmosphere of the Great Zhou Gongsun Dynasty is not bad, the people have been relatively generous since the founding of the country.

But after all, it was the emperor, so it was impossible without a little fear.

Moreover, because the rule of hundreds of years is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is very respectful to the royal family and ordinary people.

At this time, Gongsun Jian finally understood why the county guard mansion had become so nervous today.

While Gongsun Jian and the others were shocked, Chen Qiang over there also hurriedly told the clues that he had found so far.

"My lord, before the jade pendant was lost, our house happened to be closed, and until now, no one else has gone out except me and the county guard."

Although Chen Qiang didn't say what he meant, Gongsun Jian could also understand it.

The jade pendant was stolen by the people in the house!

It is precisely because of this, in addition to not wanting to be discovered by the official family that he wants to keep it secret, but because he doesn't want to spread this ugly thing.

After all, if a thief steals something, then others won't gossip, but a thief is not.

Although Chen Zhi is about to become a minister, he still needs to save face, so he naturally doesn't want people to gossip.

This point, even if he didn't say it, Chen Qiang, as a housekeeper, knew it very well, after all, it was not for nothing that he had been by Chen Zhi's side for so many years.

"Steward Chen, I don't know what clues you have found now?" Gongsun Jian hurriedly asked.

After all, if Chen Qiang didn't finish the case, Gongsun Jian didn't know if the system would release the task.

"Gongsun is in charge, and the suspects have been locked up so far, and these are the most likely." Hearing Gongsun Jian's words, Chen Qiang hurriedly pointed to the several servants who had been standing in the hall.

Hearing this, Gongsun Jian finally understood why these servants were all panicked when he came just now.

It turned out that because they were suspicious, they were taken to the hall by Chen Qiang to wait for Gongsun Jian to interrogate.

For Chen Qiang's attentive behavior, Gongsun Jian was very satisfied.

After all, he wouldn't have to bother to investigate clues.

He smiled and nodded at Chen Qiang, and then Gongsun Jian looked at the few servants standing in the hall.

With a solemn face, he asked, "Everyone, if you can confess your sins now, I will plead with Lord Commander to spare you." ”

After speaking, his face turned cold and he spoke again: "However, if it is found out later, I will not blame the official for being ruthless." ”

Seeing Gongsun Jian's cold face, the servants over there trembled in their hearts, but in the end, no one stood up.

Gongsun Jian was not surprised by this, because if the thieves had come forward from the beginning, there would have been no complicated cases in the world.

To be honest, Gongsun Jian has been waiting for the system to release the task.

After all, in terms of value alone, today's cases can meet the standards of urgent cases.

Moreover, if the system task comes out, Gongsun Jian can also directly see who is the thief among the four people in front of him.

In view of the fact that the system task has not appeared, Gongsun Jian can only pretend to circle around a few servants a few times.

This made the four servants who didn't know Gongsun Jian's thoughts nervous.

Fortunately, the system that Gongsun Jian was waiting for finally jumped out.
