Chapter XXVII: When the case is solved
When Li Gongfu came to Xu's mansion, Xu Jiaorong was cooking, he quietly avoided Xu Jiaorong and made a detour to the study to find Xu Xuan.
At this time, Xu Xuan was sorting out the study left by his "father" in the world, the royal family of the Song Dynasty implemented the rule of scholars and doctors, and most of the people would let their children read more, and Xu Xuan's father was also a scholar, not only did he have a subset of scriptures and history in the study, but later because of the medicinal materials business, there were not a few medical books, for example, what he is looking at now is the official proofreading and publication of the Song Dynasty "Taiping Shenghui Fang", in the 21st century, because of the wars of the past dynasties, it was originally early, and most of the books left were scattered, To the compilation of the four libraries of the Qing Dynasty, it was deleted in various ways, leaving less and pitiful, and now it is mostly referring to the manuscript of the eleventh year of Yongzheng (1514) in Japan, but it is also incomplete.
At this moment, Li Gongfu came in, came straight to Xu Xuan's side, put his arm around his shoulders and asked, "Xu Xuan, how does Brother Li treat you?" ”
"Uh, it's good" Xu Xuan was startled by the sudden Li Gongfu, stopped what he was doing, and replied with a slight stunned.
"Since Brother Li treats you well, Brother Li is in trouble, and it just so happens that you can help me, should you help?" Li Gongfu asked nervously.
Xu Xuan looked at Li Gongfu, who looked constipated, and knew that this guy had made such a big turn, and he was waiting for him here, but this guy was his brother-in-law, and he didn't help him, could it be that he was stumped by things? sighed and said, "Brother Li, if you have something, just say it, if it is really me, Xu Xuan can help, and I will definitely not flinch." ”
"Good, good!" Li Gongfu clapped his hands and smiled, "I'll just say that Xu Xuan is a man, and he is very kind of your big brother Li's temper!" ”
Xu Xuan rolled his eyes, what does this have to do with whether you are a man or not?
"It's all my own family, let's not go around the corner, Xu Xuanyi, the county lord handed over the case of the girl's disappearance to me and Yao Zhutou together, whoever finds out the case first will be promoted to the head catcher of the fast class," Speaking of this, Li Gongfu secretly glanced at Xu Xuan, and found that this kid had no expression, so he explained, "Originally, I didn't want to take it, but today this old Yao took the wrong medicine, and he targeted me everywhere, I was in a hurry, so I took this work next, and it happened that the county master also came out to be a witness for us in person, But your brother Li is a mallet, I really can't solve this case, so I want you to help me solve this case."
Xu Xuan looked at Li Gongfu, his heart was already like a stormy wave, and his feelings Li Gongfu's promotion to head catcher started at this time, and it was right, as soon as Xu Xian appeared in the White Snake, Li Gongfu was the head catcher, even if Xu Jiaorong was ten years older than Xu Xuan, he was only twenty-four or five, in a place like Yamen, which relied on seniority, such a young head catcher was indeed rare.
Li Gongfu saw that Xu Xuan didn't speak, just looked at himself directly, and sneered, "I do this, isn't it also to let your sister pass through the door to live a good life, no, now I am fast, less than two times a month's income, my parents are no longer alive, if it is only your sister and me, it will naturally be enough, but if you and the third brother are added, it is overstretched, and if I have a child in the future, I will add Dingkou, which is even more insufficient, and I don't want to do the thing of eating the plaintiff and the defendant, so I have to climb up." ”
Xu Xuan reacted at this time, and when he heard what Li Gongfu said, he said, "Since it is as Brother Li said, I will help you do this once, but I have never broken the case before, I can only help you find a way, mainly relying on Brother Li Yours, I just help, but I said this, this case, I am afraid that it will be solved, and it is extremely difficult, these flower thieves, the force behind them should not be small."
When Li Gongfu heard Xu Xuan say this, he immediately responded happily, "Chengcheng, just like Xu Xuan said, then where should we start now?" As for the last sentence, Li Gongfu has automatically ignored it.
Xu Xuan smiled bitterly, when he met such a brother-in-law, he didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky, he groaned slightly, and then said, "In my opinion, as we said that day, Brother Li, you take people to the missing woman's house, and ask in detail where these women have been in the past few days, whether they know some needle women, in short, it is to sum up these women, what do they have in common?"
When Li Gongfu heard this, he immediately got up and went out, "I'm going here, mine is going to hurry, otherwise let Lao Yao run in front of us, I'm afraid we will be in big trouble." ”
Xu Xuan looked at Li Gongfu, who was in a hurry, shook his head, and immediately lowered his head and looked at the book again.
In the tavern of the county Yanan, where Yao Zhutou and Lei Zhutou are still sitting. But at this time, the two of them were drinking, but no one spoke, and after this moment of dullness, Lei Zhutou couldn't help but say, "Old Yao, you want to drive Li Gongfu out of the yamen, except that you can't get used to this kid, I'm afraid you have received a little money from the old man."
Yao Zhutou glanced at Lei Zhutou and laughed, "Our old buddy for many years, after all, I can't hide it from you, which old man sent me four runs, let me drive Li Gongfu out, no, this is two runs, the old rules, one person and a half"
Lei Zhutou didn't take the money, "Lao Yao, what is the matter of the Xu family, don't get involved blindly, Li Gongfu's brother-in-law cured the third aunt's illness, and the county magistrate has a good impression of which kid, I'm afraid that you moved Li Gongfu this time, and the magistrate was put in this way, that's the reason." ”
When Yao Zhutou heard Lei Zhutou's words, he stood up abruptly and said angrily, "Hmph! Li Gongfu is just a hairy boy, do you really think that we old catchers are vegetarians? When Lao Tzu solved the case, his kid was still breastfeeding, who solved the case first, not necessarily! ”
After that, he got up and didn't say hello to Lei Zhutou, and walked straight to the door, waiting for a few errand soldiers outside, and when he saw Yao Zhutou coming out, he hurriedly followed.
Lei Zhutou looked at Yao Zhutou's menacing appearance, shook his head and smiled, "Old Yao's heart is already messed up, how can he solve the case with such a state of mind?" Hey, in that case, I don't have any clues here, just don't tell him,"
Lei Catcher's eyes, looking at the two crossovers on the table, sighed softly, "Is it really stupid for me to be old Lei?" The old man of the Xu family will give you four runs? I've heard people say, but what about Baguan, these days, the old guy is not reliable."
With that, he stood up and walked straight outside.
"Boss, the money on this table, when Lao Yao comes back, you give it to him" Some money, he won't take it.
Li Gongfu took the soldiers assigned by the county lieutenant, according to the case files in the yamen, looking for the homes of the lost women, for his brother-in-law, Li Gongfu was very trusting, not only self-taught to cure the third aunt's illness, but also became very bright.
Just now he told Lao Huang about his plan, and this old boy also said that maybe following Xu Xuan's train of thought is also a clue to solve the case, this Lao Huang is also an old criminal name, and he also followed his father back then, and his father's comments on him are shrewd and capable, he thinks it is good, and the clue given by Xu Xuan is definitely not bad.
