Chapter IV Golden Knife County Order
"Pei Lingxian, tell me the truth, just the Mrs. Cui who died in Jiangfu, you are really her adulterer!" Cheng Shaoqing looked at Pei Lingxian with a gossipy face.
Pei Ling's hand in his sleeve twitched first, and he raised his eyes to look at Cheng Shaoqing opposite with a look like a dead man.
Fearless of his death gaze, Cheng Shaoqing seemed to be born without roots, and the fire of gossip that was soaring all over his body seemed to be able to burn off the beams of the house.
Meng Heyu actually wanted to know more than him, so he unconsciously moved his buttocks and wanted to sit next to Cheng Shaoqing, but was silently suppressed by Pei Lingxian.
She protested silently, to no avail, so she had to look at Cheng Shaoqing in a sneer: "My lord, this matter really has nothing to do with me, I am just a good citizen, I can't even kill an ant." ”
Cheng Shaoqing "poofed" a pleasure: "I don't know if you killed someone or not, but it's ......"
"But what?"
"But I heard that the master of Jiangfu is Yizhou Weaving, you have the audacity to go to Yizhou Weaving Mansion to kill people, I'm afraid you will be cut off after the autumn. When the time comes, maybe I'll be able to collect your bodies. ”
Meng Heyu's face turned white, is this what the county master said?
"I didn't kill people." Pei Lingxian, who had been acting as a background board, suddenly spoke out, Cheng Shaoqing was like being beaten with chicken blood in an instant, and said with a lot of combat power, "Then what are you doing without sleeping in the middle of the night, running to Mrs. Cui's inner courtyard?" ”
"Our son-in-law is going to catch ghosts, and it has nothing to do with Mrs. Cui's death anyway." Mu Shi stiffened his neck and glared at Cheng Shaoqing.
"Catching ghosts?" Cheng Shaoqing was slightly stunned, and then burst out laughing, "Pei Lingxian, are you stupid?" How can there be ghosts in this world? ”
"There are ghosts!" A scream suddenly came from the cell next door, almost shaking Cheng Shaoqing off the Taishi's chair, and asked with a confused expression, "Who is she?" ”
Meng Heyu shook her head: "It seems that I went crazy after seeing the corpse of that Mrs. Cui." kept muttering that Mrs. Choi was dead, Mrs. Choi was dead. ”
"Ghosts, ghosts, ghosts, ghosts, looms killed Mrs. Cui, ah! There's a ghost! The woman screamed as she frantically grabbed her hair and wried around the cell, causing Cai Wei to crouch in the corner and cry.
For a moment, there was chaos in the cell.
Cheng Shaoqing rushed over with a golden knife, slashed the copper lock with a knife, and rushed in to subdue the crazy woman with three strikes and five divisions. He tied the woman's feet with an iron chain, and took a rag that he didn't know where to get out and plugged her mouth, then threw the person into the corner of the wall, and looked at Pei Lingxian through the iron fence: "I said, did you offend Zheng Dabao?" As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his arms, raised his hand, and flew to Pei Lingxian's feet like wings, "Look at it yourself." ”
Meng Heyu suspected that he did it on purpose, otherwise why didn't he just throw it into his arms?
Pei Ling picked up the paperwork first and glanced at it, and couldn't help frowning; "Zheng Dabao served as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites in Beijing in his early years, but he made a mistake in managing the lord of Yunxia County and his relatives, and was stripped of his official position by the uncle of the then prime minister, but he didn't expect him to come to Yizhou."
Meng Heyu was stunned, feeling that she had heard something terrible. Could it be that it was not this Lord Golden Knife who had an enmity with Pei Ling, but someone else?
Everyone's eyes looked at Pei Lingxian in unison.
"He is now the assassin of Yizhou, and if he can't keep you this time, he will crucify you here. The deadline is three days to solve the case, what can you do in three days, it is clear that you want to ......" Cheng Shaoqing gestured with his hand on his neck with some schadenfreude.
Meng Heyu looked at Cheng Shaoqing a little curiously, at first she thought that this Golden Dao County Commander was Pei Lingxian's enemy, but now it seems that she is here to save people.
Mu Shi's face turned slightly pale, he raised his hand to take the document and looked at it, and said angrily: "Childe, he is taking the opportunity to harm you!" If you don't find the real culprit within three days, he will definitely make you a scapegoat. ”
Pei Ling frowned first and was silent. Cheng Shaoqing lowered his head and fiddled with the handle of the knife: "You can't say that, as long as you find the murderer within three days, he will naturally have nothing to do with you." ”
"What about the murderer? Did you catch it? Mu Shi had a young boy's face black, "Aren't you a county magistrate?" Isn't solving cases your specialty?"
Cheng Shaoqing suddenly smiled, raised his head and looked at Mu Shi sarcastically: "What's wrong with me being a county order?" Does the prefectural order have to solve the case? Lao Tzu's first day in office, the first day. ”
Day one?
Meng Heyu, who has always acted as a transparent person, almost didn't throw the rope that he had been holding in his hand on his head.
Forget it, forget it, it seems that if you want to get out, you still have to rely on yourself.
She shook the grass clippings on her body, and didn't bother to continue pretending, threw the rope that had been cut long ago on the ground, walked to the side of the iron fence, and asked Cheng Shaoqing with the iron fence: "How did that Mrs. Cui die?" After we entered Jiangfu, we didn't even see anyone at all. That's it......" she raised her hand and pointed to the woman who was tied up by Cheng Shaoqing, "she ran over and said that the dead man was dead, and the government soldiers in the house arrested us." After speaking, she turned her head to look at Pei Lingxian again, and called sweetly, "Cousin." ”
'Cousin' looked up at her as if asking, "What's the matter?"
Meng Heyu grinned: "You just tell the truth to this adult, do you have an adulterous affair with Mrs. Cui, if so, then you are suspicious, if not, the adult will definitely return your innocence." ”
Pei Lingxian's pupils shrank, and Meng Heyu swore that she really saw the murderous aura in his eyes.
"Nope." Pei Ling first collapsed on the edge of the haystack with an expressionless face, looking like she didn't care about herself.
Meng Heyu felt that this person was a bit of a dog, and this was all on fire, and he was still in a daze.
She walked over to him, leaned over to him, and lowered her voice, "Hey, do you want to go out?" I'm telling you, if I can't get out and can't get the antidote, your ears will fall off tomorrow, so you'd better cooperate. ”
Pei Ling lifted her eyelids first and glanced at her, and suddenly stretched out her hand. Meng Heyu was stunned for a moment, and saw that he slowly opened his palm, and there was an earring with gold wire wrapped around a ruby lying quietly on it.
"Why are my earrings with you?" She subconsciously reached out to touch her ear, and sure enough, the earring on her right ear was missing.
"Give me back."
Pei Ling first withdrew her hand suddenly, put her hand in her sleeve, and stared at her face with dark eyes: "Who are you, Lord Yunxia?" ”
Meng Heyu's face sank at a speed visible to the naked eye: "What does this have to do with you?" ”
Pei Lingxian suddenly leaned over and grabbed her wrist: "This is something that flowed out of the palace, and it was one of the dowries of the county lord of Yunxia and the pro-watt back then, how could it be in your hands?" ”
Meng Heyu's face was extremely ugly, she looked at Pei Lingxian in a daze, and felt that the hand on her wrist was constantly tightening, as if she was going to break her hand.
"I picked it up." She jerked her head up and banged her head on his chin.
Pei Ling didn't expect her to come with such a hand, she was unprepared for a while, her teeth hit her lips, and she snorted in pain. Taking advantage of his slackness, Meng Heyu jerked back his hand bowl and slipped away from him like a loach.
Pei Ling first frowned and wiped her lower lip, and her fingertips were a little red.
Meng Heyu, who escaped his restraint, smiled proudly, but when her eyes fell on his crimson lips, she almost lost her heart.
Originally, the fairy man was a fairy, because of a little red on his lips, the whole person seemed to have a touch of demonic charm, and his legs were weak.
What the hell is it that you want to kneel and lick?
Meng Heyu tried her best to control her kneeling legs, took two steps back without arguing, rubbed her wrists, and threw a flattering look at him pretentiously: "Cousin, you hurt me." ”
"Shameless."
Meng Heyu turned his head and made a grimace at the energetic Mu Shi: "I want you to take care of it." ”
Mu Shi was so angry that he glared vertically, and took two steps forward to block Pei Ling's front.
Pei Ling stood up slowly, shook the grass clippings on his body, and turned around and walked out.
"Childe, where are you going?" Mu Shi hurriedly caught up.
Pei Ling first glanced at Cheng Shaoqing in the cell next door, and said lightly: "Wash away the grievances." ”
When Meng Heyu heard this, she hurriedly rushed over and grabbed his sleeve, and looked at him with a eager face: "I'll go too." ”
"You can't." Cheng Shaoqing came out of the cell next to him and slammed the golden knife in front of her, "You are all gone, who will I go to when I go back?" ”
Meng Heyu stretched out his hand and pushed the wood and stone in front of him: "He, he stays, he is my cousin's personal servant, it's always right for you to leave him." ”
Cheng Shaoqing touched his chin: "But I still think it's more appropriate for you to stay, cousin." ”
"Yes, I'm going to protect my son." Mu Shi echoed with a dark face.
The corners of Meng Heyu's mouth twitched, pulled Cheng Shaoqing aside, dragged him aside, and said to him in a low voice: "My lord, aren't you afraid that the two of them will be embarrassed and run away?" ”
"Can he leave this cousin of yours behind?"
Meng Heyu looked distressed; "You may not know, my adult and my cousin have been engaged to kiss the baby since childhood, but he doesn't like me, I came from Watt this time to recognize the kiss, he actually doesn't want to recognize me, and he plans, and plans to ......"
Cheng Shaoqing looked at Meng Heyu's pear blossom rain and grief-stricken expression, thinking that Pei Lingxian, the dog man, was planning to regret his marriage, so he turned his head and glanced at him with disdain.
A manly husband, what kind of ability is it to bully a little girl? Their old Pei family is really a litter of foxes, and there is no good thing. He scolded secretly in his heart, looked at Meng Heyu's eyes full of sympathy, and said, "Hey, don't cry, I'll let you follow him." ”
Mu Shi didn't know what the two of them were muttering there, but as soon as he returned, he became a hostage left in the prison.
He looked at Pei Lingxian outside through the iron bar, and wanted to speak.
"Oh, don't worry, I'll take good care of your cousin." Meng Heyu gloated at him with a sly smile, and then followed Pei Ling out of the prison first.
Before leaving, Cheng Shaoqing also gave them a waist card and asked them to go to Wang Qizuo in Yizhuang outside the city, Mrs. Cui's body was over there, and he also explained some details of the case, as for whether he could find the real murderer, it was up to Pei Lingxian himself.
