Chapter 197: Xiao He calculates Liu Bang

It is night, the moon is sparse and the stars are sparse, and the night is cool into the water

"Ah.......h

A shrill scream came from the Peixian brothel.

The screams immediately alarmed the city guards patrolling the streets, and at this sensitive moment, any wind and grass can make people nervous, and the city guards immediately surrounded the brothel.

"What's the matter, such a big thing happened, what about the county lieutenant?" The white and fat county commander rushed over with the county magistrate and said angrily at the city guards.

At this sensitive time, there was a homicide in the county. And the people who can stay in the brothel in the middle of the night are naturally either rich or expensive. When he heard that something had happened, he got up from the bed as soon as possible, and the county lieutenant, a bastard, might be in that woman's bed.

"My lord, the county lieutenant can't come." The commander of the city guard said tentatively.

"Why can't you come, send someone to call him, I'll wait for him here today, and I won't go up if he doesn't come." Big shelf, something. The county magistrate woke up in the middle of the night, obviously not in a very good mood, and said scoldingly.

"My lord, the county lieutenant really can't come."

"The one who died upstairs is the county lieutenant." The Commander of the City Guard said.

"What? The county lieutenant is dead? The county magistrate's body shook his body, and he only felt the purple head buzzing.

At this time, the county lieutenant died, which is a great event. The only 3,000 garrisons in this Pei county are in the hands of the county lieutenant, he died at this time, if there is any problem in the city, but something big will happen.

The county lieutenant is dead, how can he die at this time. The county magistrate would rather die at this time than a rich and powerful businessman, but it is better for the county to die than to die for the county lieutenant. With the death of the county lieutenant, it is difficult to say that Pei County has finally stabilized the situation.

The deceased was the county lieutenant of Pei County, surnamed Zhang, and the old Qin army. It is said that he himself drunken and bragged that he had participated in the campaign to unify the Chu State. He is just forty-seven years old this year, and he is in the prime of life

The corpse was still on the embroidery bed on the second floor of the brothel, and now it was autumn, and the weather was a little cold. A red futon on the bed wrapped the corpse, and the county Cheng opened the futon only to see that the corpse was still in a sprint shape, obviously a little caught off guard when he died.

This county lieutenant has dark skin and is powerful. Obviously a practitioner who is proficient in martial arts, it stands to reason that he should not die suddenly in bed because of this little manual labor.

"Zhang Xianwei came before dark, drank in the hall, listened to the song and dance, and went up to the second floor to stay overnight. This just came up to the second floor, and it didn't take long for this thing to happen. The old bustard of the county government is recounting what he knows.

"Lord County Commander, I was wronged, and I don't know what's going on. At this critical moment, County Lieutenant Zhang suddenly lay on top of me and did not move, I thought that he was tired, so I pushed him. Who knew that I pushed him and fell on the bed, and I ran out of breath as soon as I tried to breathe. A charming woman in the county government was hiding her face and crying bitterly, obviously frightened.

"My lord, the girls in our brothel don't even dare to kill a chicken on weekdays, let alone kill someone, this must have nothing to do with us." The old bustard hurriedly said.

"Excuse me, has the cause of death been found?" The prefectural magistrate asked.

"My lord, there are no external injuries, the cause of death should be poisoning, as for what poison needs to be dissected." He replied.

"County Lieutenant Zhang is having dinner at your brothel." The prefectural magistrate asked.

"It's a good meal for us, but this girl eats with him, if the food is poisonous, it can't just poison him." The old bustard said.

"Let me ask you, have you eaten all the food that County Lieutenant Zhang ate?" The county magistrate asked the woman in the hall.

"Eat, we'll have dinner together." The woman replied with great certainty.

"it, autopsy, right?" The county magistrate can't see that he can't ask anything, and now he can only conduct an autopsy, and if it is poisoned, this brothel will naturally have nothing to do with it.

About an hour passed

"My lord, there is no sign of poison, it is more like overwork and sudden death." He shook his head from the county order and said.

At this time, Xiao He on the side leaked a smile and said, "My lord, since County Lieutenant Zhang died accidentally, these people might as well let them go first, so as not to panic in the city." ”

"Release people, release people." The county magistrate will obviously be a little irritable.

"Xiao He, what should I do now?" After everyone left, the county commander asked, Xiao He, this kid has a lot of ideas, and the county magistrate naturally needs Xiao He's strategy at this time.

"My lord, the most urgent task now is how to appease the people. We have to find a leader for the city guards as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a hidden danger. Xiao He said to the county order.

"How is Liu Laosan?" The county order asked Xiang Xiao He.

In the eyes of the county commander, although Liu Laosan is a little greedy, he can be a man and know how to advance and retreat. The most important thing is that this man has soft ears, and he has always obeyed his orders.

Xiao He groaned for a while, half pushed, and said: "Liu Laosan must have the ability, if he is made a county lieutenant, the situation will definitely be stabilized, and the people's hearts can be appeased." It's just that it's not a little promoted. ”

Isn't it enough that the county order can stabilize the situation and appease the people? Immediately clapped the decision: "Then let Liu Laosan be the county lieutenant first, and I will write a letter to the county guard tomorrow, this Liu Laosan is the person that the Hou Ye sees, and this face is still to be given compared to the county guard." ”

When I came out of the county office, it was already dawn

"Brother Xiao, it's done?"

Xiao He had just arrived home, and Cao Shen and Wang Ling were already waiting at his house.

"It's done, tomorrow Liu Laosan will be the new county lieutenant of Hepei County." Xiao He took a sip of tea and said.

"Brother Xiao, how did you unknowingly kill County Lieutenant Zhang." Cao Shen asked.

"I know that."

"Don't look at Zhang County's tall man, but in fact, he can't do it in that way, that is, he is a seven-in-seven-out goods. Every time Zhang Xianwei goes to the brothel, he must ask Xiao Cuihua to sleep, and every time he will order a He Shou Wu stewed hen to make up for his body. I smeared the pollen of the purple orchid on the belly pocket of the little emerald flower beforehand, and the pollen would inevitably rub on her body. Think about it, this county lieutenant is an old thing, how can he not move his tongue. As long as he moves his tongue, he will inevitably lick the pollen into his stomach. Wang Ling said triumphantly.

Speaking of this, Cao Shenxin already understands that He Shou Wu and purple orchids are mixed with highly poisonous, not to mention, and the poisonous person can't see the slightest sign of poisonous death on the surface.

The next day, the sun was shining

"Third brother, it's up, it's up." Liu Bang was resting in the inspection team's administrative facility when he heard a subordinate shouting hurriedly.

"Born, what was born."

"Could it be that your sister-in-law gave birth, no, what did you give birth to in just four months?" Liu Bang was a little confused.

"Third brother, it's not that my sister-in-law gave birth, it's you who got promoted."

"County Lieutenant Zhang died on your woman's belly last night, and the county magistrate promoted you to county lieutenant." The subordinate said breathlessly.

"What?".

"I'm a county lieutenant." While Liu Bang was happy, his heart always had some indescribable feelings. The county lieutenant has always been Liu Bang's dream position, but sitting in the position of county lieutenant so inexplicably, Liu Bang always feels as if there is an air of conspiracy.

Maybe this is fate, the time has come, whether you want to move forward or not, there will always be someone pushing you forward.
