Outside the city gate, Li and Chen were tied up and knelt on the execution platform. The executioner picked up the big ring knife, sprayed a mouthful of wine on the knife, wiped the knife with a rag and prepared for execution.

The onlookers were puzzled by the sudden surrender of the Li family after so many years of escaping, so Han Xuan added fuel to the incident of last night and told them that it was Chenghuang Tuomeng who told him that the Li family was a murderer. The people actually believed it and worshiped Han Xuan as a god.

The "City God" was Han Xuan's pretense, and he stood between the City God statue and the wall and spoke and had an echo, making Li mistakenly believe that it was the City God's apparition.

And a case for a period of time after that, the people praised Han Xuan's case like a god.

A villager in Twenty Lipu murdered his wife and then set fire to his house, saying that his wife had been accidentally burned to death. Because the relationship between the husband and wife has always been very tense, the wife's relatives suspected that he killed his wife and burned her body, and went to the Luo County Yamen to denounce it.

Han Xuan, the county magistrate of Luoxian County, accepted the case and interrogated the villager, but the villager resolutely refused to admit it. Han Xuan asked Cao Xuan to buy two live pigs, kill one first, and then lock the dead and alive pigs in a shed full of firewood and set fire to the house. When the pig is also dead, drag it out for inspection.

The pig that was killed first had no soot in its mouth; And the pig that was burned alive could find soot in its mouth. So the body of the villager's wife was examined, and it was found that there was indeed no soot in her mouth, indicating that she had been burned after she died. The villager then pleaded guilty.

Time flies, and it has been a few months since Han Xuan and Su Qiao'er adopted those seven wolf cubs. Han Xuan had just solved another case, he sat at the desk of the county office and collected the file, got up and came to the eaves, looked at the thunderstorm outside, and sighed: "Zijian, cases in Luo County have been happening more and more frequently recently. Due to famine and war, there are more and more displaced people in Lailuo County, and when there are too many people, it is easy to be chaotic! ”

Cao Xing stood behind him and said: "The adult is like a god in judging the case, and in the next few days, I have seen the adult solve one strange case after another, and the adult's analysis is all wonderful!" No matter how many people there are, this Luo County is definitely as safe as Mount Tai under the governance of adults. ”

Han Xuan pointed at Cao Xuan while pacing and smiled: "Zijian, even you have learned to pat the official's ass." ”

Cao Xing followed him and said with a smile: "Hey, they were all promoted by adults to become the head catcher in this yamen, which will inevitably learn some officialdom after reigning for a long time." I hope you don't blame you. ”

Han Xuan and Cao Xuan laughed and talked, looking at the sky, but there was still a trace of worry in their eyes.

"My lord, my subordinates have sent the umbrella. Let's go home. Cao Xuan took an umbrella from a small catcher and opened it, and sent Han Xuan back to Han Xuan's mansion with the umbrella.

As soon as he returned to his house, he saw Su Qiaoer's maid Xiaoyuan come to visit. Xiao Yuan smiled and said to them, "Childe, Miss asked you to go over and eat together." Childe, Brother Cao. You're in for a treat, Miss said she was going to cook herself! ”

Han Xuan had never eaten Su Qiao'er's cooking, and he had always cooked or asked the cook to cook it. He didn't dare to try it easily, but after all, it was Su Qiao'er's intention, and he was a little hesitant.

Cao Xuan also shirked and said: "My lord, it's rare that Miss Su is full of hospitality, you better go." Just deal with it casually. ”

Han Xuan said: "Hey~ Zijian, how can you be a strong young man in your twenties without eating enough." Come with me. ”

"My lord, it is not proper to eat with the master."

"What are the rules, let's go......"

“……”

The three of them came to the Su Mansion together, and when Han Xuan entered the door, he saw the earth dog Ah Huang that Xiao Yuan had bought at the beginning, and the wolf cubs grew up rapidly under its nursery, and now they are the size of ordinary puppies. Ah Huang walked in the courtyard with seven little wolves, and when he saw Han Xuan coming in, he hurriedly ran over and wagged his tail to welcome him, and several little wolves also came over to lick Han Xuan's feet.

Han Xuan touched them, but heard someone in the main hall making noise, so he rushed over.

"Master Han, you have a good intention, you should take this bracelet back!" Han Xuan saw that Su Qiao'er was stuffing a jade bracelet back to a man.

The man was Han Meng, and I saw Han Meng pull Su Qiao'er's arm to put a jade bracelet on her, and Su Qiao'er struggled to push his hand away.

Han Xuan immediately walked over and grabbed Han Meng's hand holding the jade bracelet tightly and said, "Oops! What a beautiful jade bracelet. This water color, this texture, tsk tsk ~ well, it is really the best quality. How about the elder brother give it to the younger brother? ”

Han Meng saw Han Xuan coming, and his face was full of embarrassment. Han Xuan's strength has increased a lot in the past two years, and the wrist holding Han Meng has been held tighter, Han Meng's face is flushed, and his other hand quickly let go of Su Qiao'er's arm.

Han Meng rubbed the wrist that was pinched by Han Xuan, and asked Han Xuan: "Brother Xuan, what do you want a jade bracelet for?" ”

Han Xuan smiled, "Uh...... Can't my little brother give it to my mother? Brother, Qiao'er is so shirked that you still want to give it to her. Why bother? ”

Su Qiao'er leaned on Han Xuan's shoulder and cried quietly, Han Xuan comforted her softly, and then said to Han Meng, "Brother, have you ever eaten." We're about to have dinner, why don't you stay and eat together, brother? ”

Cao Xuan also walked over, clenched his fists and made a "creaking" bone crunching sound: "Yes, Cao Xuan has long wanted to get acquainted with Han Gongzi." ”

A drop of cold sweat flowed from Han Meng's forehead, and he smiled at them and said, "No, no, my brother has already eaten it." Let's dine, hehehe~"

Han Meng staggered towards the outside of the lobby, and one was trampled down by the threshold without paying attention, and got up again and walked out of the door. As soon as he walked to the door, Ah Huang ran over with the little wolf to make out with him, and he was so frightened that he ran out of the house.

Han Xuan and Cao Xuan couldn't help laughing when they looked at his embarrassed appearance, and Han Xuan asked, "Zijian, I think Han Meng is a little afraid of you, what's going on?" ”

Cao Xuan smiled and said, "When Gongzi led his troops to fight against the Yellow Turbans before, Gongzi Han Meng often came to harass Miss Su. Seeing that he was very rude to Miss Su, he beat him up! At that time, I didn't know that he was the brother of the childe, so I asked the son to forgive the sins. ”

Han Xuan smiled: "Good fight!" Zijian, you're doing a great job. ”

Su Qiao'er said: "Xuan, don't talk about this, come and try my dishes." ”

When several people came to the banquet, Han Xuan picked up a boiled vegetable leaf and asked, "What kind of dish is this?" ”

Su Qiao'er replied: "This is Xiang, I like to eat this kind of dish." ”

Han Xuan asked suspiciously, "Oh, it's cabbage, right?" He saw that Cao Xuan had already picked up a vegetable leaf and put it in his mouth, and Han Xuan also took a bite.

The next moment, both of them vomited at the same time. Han Xuan hurriedly picked up the water and rinsed his mouth, Su Qiao'er pouted and asked, "What's wrong, is it hard to eat?" Qiao'er is a first-time cook......"

Han Xuan choked on his saliva and said, "No, it's the first time you've cooked like this...... Not bad. It's just that you put this salt on it, and it hasn't melted on it. ”

However, this can't be blamed on Su Qiao'er, the salt eaten by the ancients is coarse salt, which is large and granular, and there are many impurities in it. Han Xuan was about to purify the coarse salt, he asked Xiao Yuan to find some coarse salt, added the coarse salt to the clay pot filled with water, and stirred it with chopsticks as he added, until the coarse salt was no longer dissolved; Then filter the salt water, Han Xuan saw that the filtrate was still turbid, and filtered it again; Finally, the obtained filtrate was poured into the pot, the salt water was boiled over the fire, and after more granular crystals appeared in the pot, Han Xuan took away the firewood and waited for the residual heat to evaporate it.

After surviving, Han Xuan finally got the fine salt he needed. Su Qiao'er and Cao Xing took a bite and tasted it,

Cao Xing was overjoyed and said: "The salt we eat on weekdays is much more bitter than this!" My lord, you are truly a god. ”

Han Xuan made a silent gesture: "This is the method we use to make money, and we can't spread it." ”

Han Xuan thanked himself for remembering the experiment of salt purification done in junior high school, which had become his secret magic weapon in this era.
