Qi Qi came to the Chang'an County Ya and revealed his identity, and the young official said: "No, you are just a student, not a formal bad person." ”

"Good man, please let me in, I'm just looking." Qi Qi said coquettishly.

She's a pretty girl after all, and judging from the effect, this trick is quite effective.

The official smiled and said, "What you want to see is not in our yamen, but in Jing Zhaoyin." ”

"This is obviously a matter of Chang'an County." Qi Qi didn't trust the young servant very much.

The official shrugged his shoulders, "Because of the huge amount of money involved, I was transferred by Jing Zhaoyin." The official shook his head helplessly, as if to say: Do you still need me to explain the specific inside story to you? Bad guy classmates!

Almost all of the bad guys are penetrating spirits, if Qi Qi can't even figure out this insider, then it's better to go home quickly.

Subsequently, Qi Qi went home, but she didn't want to resign, but asked her father about the situation of Lord Jing Zhaoyin.

"Daddy."

"Why are you back again? Did your instructor allow you to run around like that? ”

"What I told you last time seems a bit troublesome." Qi Qi sat down with an aggrieved look.

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Qi Shuren narrowed his eyes and asked, "Say, what do you want to ask me?" ”

So Qi Qi told her father about her troubles.

Qi Shuren paused for a moment and said: "Since Emperor Zhide ascended the throne, Jing Zhaoyin's official rank has become higher and higher, from the first rank to the fifth rank, and now it has been promoted to the third rank. This is Jing Zhaoyin, the highest-ranking official since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Moreover, he also set up two positions in Jingzhao Mansion, Zuo Feng Yi and Right Fufeng, and sat on an equal footing with Jingzhao Yin, forming a situation of three assistants governing Beijing. If you want to check the information, it's useless to find Jing Zhaoyin for this matter, you have to go to Zuo Fengyi. Now Zuo Fengyi is Lord Kuang Zhengkuang. Unfortunately, the Father and he are recognized mortal enemies. He also debated in the court a few times, and each time he lost very facelessly. Perhaps because of this, he failed to promote a step in three consecutive transfers. ”

Father is one of the most famous "granite" of the dynasty, of course, this is not a good sentence, the full sentence of this sentence is: the granite in the thatched pit is smelly and hard.

Qi Qi learned this sentence from the side, when she also quarreled with Kuang Zheng's son, but the Kuang family didn't seem to be good at arguing, and they didn't quarrel with Qi Qi.

Or perhaps, this is the tradition of the Qi family, from the old man Qi Dongyang to his three sons, all of them are masters of quarrels, quoting scriptures and classics, and often making their opponents speechless.

Of course, first of all, the Qi family has a positive atmosphere, so they can always quarrel and win.

Emperor Li Heng looks very tyrannical on the surface, but this emperor knows more than anyone else, and he knows that it is very necessary for him to support a few people like Qi Shuren around him.

"So what should I do, can't I do this?" Qi Qi looked a little annoyed.

"Why don't you go to your instructor and give you a certificate." Qi Shuren asked.

Qi Qi rubbed his fingers and said, "I don't want to find an instructor, I just want to solve it myself." ”

"To show what you're capable of? Give the instructor the impression that you are competent? Qi Shuren smiled bitterly. Then why don't you go to your master? I seem to remember that one of your senior brothers was transferred to Jingzhao Mansion, and he seems to be on an errand in the database. It is an eight-grade master. ”

"Of course I do." Qi Qi said unhappily: "My senior brother is an iron-faced and selfless person, no matter who it is, even if his own father goes, he also requires that things be done according to the rules." Last time, the master was not accommodating when he asked him to do things, and in the end, the master was so angry that his heart hurt, and because of this, the master almost broke off the master-apprentice relationship with him. ”

"Is it that serious?" Qi Shuren sneered: "But this is also a good thing, if everyone can be as upright as him, then the Yushitai can be revoked." ”

Qi Qi stopped talking.

Qi Shuren thought for a while and said, "I think, you better go to your senior brother." ”

"But I don't have the formalities." Qi Qi said.

Qi Shuren knocked on the table and said, "You are working on a case, not a private matter." Although there is one less formality, you are not here to collect evidence. ”

"I'm here to collect evidence." Qi Qi said loudly.

"Do you need to take the evidence away?" Qi Shuren's eyes widened, feeling that his daughter was a little stubborn, but this was quite similar to him.

Qi Qi thought for a while and said, "No need, I'll just take a look." I wondered who signed the will, including the lawyer on duty and at least two servants. ”

Qi Shuren shrugged: "If that's the case, I don't even think you need to enter the database, you just let him take a look, and then tell you no?" ”

"But I don't think it's out of the rules."

"You go and give it a try, and if it doesn't work, think of something else. Also, I don't think you need to be so aggressive. In my experience, stubbornness can only bring you temporary benefits, but in the long run, it is very inappropriate. For example, if someone asks you to do something in the future, if you don't agree, you will offend people because of it; And you agreed, but you couldn't do it, and you had to beg others, and there were many favors in vain. ”

"I see." Qi Qi didn't like to listen to his father's nagging, so he stood up and said, "I'll go find Wang Jie, if he doesn't help, I'll trouble him and see what he can do to me." ”

……

Wei Chang drank with the old beggar and drank for an hour.

The old beggar was very cunning, and he didn't hear a word of use from his mouth, it was all a little thing about the old sesame seeds and rotten grain.

However, Wei Chang can be sure of one thing, this old thing is definitely not simple. He even suspected that the old beggar had never left the black market circle of the West Market.

But why did he dress himself up as a beggar?

Unable to figure this out, Wei Chang changed the way he spoke, and he decided to talk to the old man directly.

"I don't believe Lin Sen has no power here." Wei Chang stared at the old beggar's eyes and said.

"Hey, I've told you twice, the people from their Wannian County can't get along in our West City." The old beggar rubbed his eyes and said, "If you want to find out his power, you should go to the East Market." There is also the sale of broken intestine grass. ”

"But Cao Mang is in the West Market." Wei Chang said in an understated tone.

The old beggar squinted his eyes and smiled bitterly, "After doing it for a long time, you want to inquire about the relationship between Lin Sen and Cao Mang," shook his head and said, "Their well water does not interfere with river water, you don't have to check it." ”

"How can you be so sure?"

Cao Mang never left Chang'an County, let alone went to Dongshi. I can guarantee that as soon as he walks into Dongshi, he will be killed by Hu Laosan. Hey, do you know Hu Laosan? ”

"I don't know."

"Oh, I can tell his story for three days and three nights." The old beggar drank all his wine, and shook the red lacquered wine gourd.

Wei Chang called a little beggar, threw a few dollars to the little beggar, and asked the little beggar to come back from drinking.

The old beggar continued: "Hu Laosan was originally a man on the Huai River, a fisherman, and later came to the capital with his brother. The two of them had no experience, their hearts were too wild, and their movements were too big, so they wanted to take the East Market directly, but within a year, his brother asked them to do it. And the person who killed his brother was Cao Mang. At that time, Cao Mang was just a subordinate of the big snake head Wei Bell in the East City. ”

"How did Hu Laosan later bring down Wei Zhong?" Wei Chang asked.

After his brother's death, Hu Laosan surrendered. Then he followed Wei Zhong for three years, and he did the hardest, most tiring, and most dangerous work in these three years. How many times he almost gave his life, but he had a big life and survived. At a party, he led ten brothers and killed all the guards and his cronies. The old beggar smiled coldly: "This is a ruthless person, he is very ruthless, and he has not even let his family go." ”

"Does the government care?"

"Official?" The old beggar smiled bitterly: "Of course you have to take care of it, how can you not care about so many people who have died." Hu Laosan handed over thirty corpses and seven living people. And then that's how the case ended. ”

"Even if those seven living people are willing to die, if the government wants to investigate, it is impossible not to find loopholes."

"That's right." The little beggar came back, the old beggar took the wine jug and checked it, felt that there was no less scale, nodded with satisfaction, Wei Chang threw two cents to the little beggar, the little beggar went to the restaurant to buy potatoes to eat, the old beggar continued:

"It's all a network of interests, and no one can escape. The 10,000-year-old county order is also difficult to do. Fortunately, Hu Laosan can still hand over seven living people, otherwise he may not be able to keep this official. How could he have the heart to investigate the case carefully? ”

"What about the Criminal Department? What about Dali Temple? What about the Inspection Division? What about the Goshidai? Wei Chang asked: "Dali Temple is very difficult, right?" ”

"Dali Temple is difficult to do, Dali Temple Sanqing is upright, it is really famous." The old beggar nodded and said, "However, someone beheaded those seven people first, who will Dali Temple go to investigate?" ”

"Who is so bold?"

"Hehe, then we don't know, we're just a little beggar, how can we know so much." The old man began to sell off again.

"What were you doing then?" Wei Chang asked.

"Me? Hey, I'm afraid you won't believe me. Thought I was bragging. The old beggar smiled: "Back then, I was the head of the big snake in the West Market, and Wei Deng was just one of my followers, and later I borrowed others to go to the East Market." As a result, that kid was quite capable, and he directly gave the old snake's head to the nest. Hehe, at that time, some people said that I, Lao Huang, controlled the two cities of the East and West alone. ”

"Then you didn't want to avenge Wei Zhong?"

"When is the time for retribution, if I really took revenge at that time, do you think I can still live to this day?" The old beggar sighed and said, "Because of this, everyone thinks that I am too cowardly and not righteous enough, and slowly, my position is taken by others. Later, three people popped up and divided my forces, including Cao Mang. ”

"So there are no big snakeheads in the West Market now?"

"Yes, no." The old beggar said, "There are three heads of snakes, but there are no big heads." But now that Cao Mang is dead, the other two snakeheads are estimated to be in a hurry, and when one of them is killed, the other one will become the new big snakehead after me. ”

"Huh." Wei Chang smiled bitterly. patted the dust and stood up: "Old man, everyone respected you as Master Huang back then, and now Wei Chang's junior has just arrived, and he also calls you so." You won't be disgusted, will you? ”

"Oh, Master Wei, you're too polite."

Then Wei Chang walked away.

When I returned to Fenghuan Inn, I didn't see Qi Qi. Wei Chang didn't eat dinner and drank dryly.

After another hour or so, seeing that the night was almost fast, Qi Qi came back at a trot, running a long way, and still a little out of breath.

"Blood tofu, do you still eat it?" Wei Chang asked with a wicked smile.

"Can't you just change it?" Qi Qi raised his eyebrows: "Every time, I pay the bill, but it makes it seem like you have a treat." No, I'll order this time, don't be blind. ”

Qi Qi ordered two dishes, a braised carp and a pot of meat, of which the pot meat was invented by the new emperor Li Heng, and it was all the rage in the upper-class aristocratic circles of the capital. It was only later that it was introduced to street restaurants.

"Have you eaten it?" Qi Qi smiled proudly.

"I haven't eaten it." Wei Chang blinked his eyes, pretended to be very curious to take a bite, put down his chopsticks and said, "No, it's not authentic enough, it's missing something." ”

“…… What's missing? ”

"Less tomato juice. It's not tasty, it's not tasty. ”

I don't know when it started, Qi Qi has already gotten a little used to Wei Chang, this damn guy never speaks seriously. If one day he suddenly becomes serious, maybe he will not be able to adapt to it.

Qi Qi didn't bother with him and continued to eat.

Wei Chang asked, "How's the investigation?" ”

"No results." Qi Qi is picking fish bones.

As a result, as soon as the selection was finished, the piece of fish meat was taken away by Wei Chang.

Qi Qi dropped the chopsticks and said, "Tomorrow my senior brother Wang Jie is on an errand, and I can ask the result." ”

"You didn't go today?"

"Go, don't let in at all."

"Oh, then I hope you have the best tomorrow. I've inquired and found that such a will would have to be signed by at least three people before it can take effect. First, it is Cao Mang's lawyer; Second, there are two people who often live by Cao Mang's side. All you have to do is find out these three people. ”

"I've known this for a long time." Qi Qi dragged the braised carp in front of him and didn't give it to Wei Chang: "I don't need you to remind you." ”

"Whoosh."
