255, aftermath
Just like Zhang Chengde, he doesn't need evidence to attack Xu Xiaole. Xu Xiaole, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun", does not need evidence to accuse Ma Xingwen. Although he expounded many of his own conjectures, the key is that it is right - Ma Xingwen did take other people's money and promised to disturb Xu Xiaole's career.
In the court, Fang Zhixian just shouted "torture", and before Jiamu touched the meat, he recruited all the tricks.
Ma Xingwen only knew that the man who gave him the silver was a street thug. The gangster is obviously just a small character who is an errand runner. Fang Zhixian knew that it was useless to ask again, so he sent someone to arrest the gangster, but found that this person had already disappeared from hiding.
Xu Xiaole directly suspected Zhang Chengde, who went to Baoning Hetang. He has no evidence, not even clues, but in terms of his short work experience, whenever something bad happens, it is this Zhang Chengde who is making trouble behind his back. However, he has no way to retaliate against Zhang Chengde now.
Zhang Chengde's ability to take charge of Baoning Hetang can also be said to be due to his identity as a son-in-law, and after all, he can't ask a woman to come out and show his face. However, the fact that he can sit on the chair of the head of the Suzhou Medicine Industry is enough to prove this person's skill and ability. The medicine store is a profiteering business, which shopkeeper doesn't want to say everything in the guild? As a son-in-law, his resistance is greater than that of other shopkeepers, but he can overwhelm the crowd, which is enough to show his strength.
Although Xu Xiaole has a slight reputation, he only has personal contacts with wealthy families like Zhao, Zhou, and Gu, and he is not as good as Zhang Chengde with the help of the Medicine Guild and Baoning Hetang to entangle the interests of big families. In the face of interests, human favor is very thin. Fighting for interests with human favors is really like hitting a stone with an egg.
Xu Xiaole himself can't see such a far-reaching, but Tan Gongchao is an old man who can see it thoroughly, and suggests that Xu Xiaole "stop here". Xu Xiaole thought that it was not too late for the gentleman to take revenge for ten years, so he listened to Tan Lao's admonition and did not make any more trouble.
After taking care of Ma Xingwen, the situation on the mountain immediately calmed down. Greed is human nature, but seeing that there is no future, many people immediately give in. At this time, no one will play personality with Xu Xiaole, everyone should have never happened to them, and continue to live the previous days with peace of mind.
Xu Xiaole needs the patient to cooperate with the treatment, so it is over and will not be pursued. However, he still found an opportunity to talk about it, but those who want to leave are not discouraged, and those who want to stay and continue to try to heal must abide by the rules and reason. In this way, the matter on the mountain is completely settled.
Han Tongzhi and Dai Haoge admired Xu Xiaole's toughness.
These two people have been away from their homes for many years and have been begging for a living in other places. If you encounter this kind of thing, you can only leave early, as the so-called people leave their hometowns, and their sharpness has long been exhausted. Xu Xiaole is used to being a snake on the ground, but Qionglong Mountain is at his doorstep! There is also the backing of the true view, which is naturally very tough.
With this toughness, Han Tongzhi and Dai Haoge were very convinced.
However, Ma Xingwen's wife died after all.
Human life is at stake, and this matter cannot be erased by a county order. Fang Zhixian asked for a servant to find out the cause of death, cooperated with Ma Xingwen's confession, and the testimony of the people in Qionglong Mountain, and then handed it over to the government office. The government officials should conduct verification based on the case file, and when necessary, they should also summon witnesses to the court to ask for details.
Xu Xiaole, as the most important witness, naturally went to the government to report at every turn. Fortunately, he is now the ambassador of Huimin Pharmacy. Wearing official uniforms, theoretically with the prefect, the same intellectual, and the official are all colleagues, and the meeting is just a bow, which saves a lot of effort.
The death lawsuit was not filed by the Nanjing Criminal Department until November. As usual, the prefect is going to make the last summons, the verdict that should be pronounced, and the handover that should be handed over. Xu Xiaole received the notice from the government office on this day, put on the official uniform again, and went to the government office.
The prefect's surname is Gao, which is the same year as Gu Shuqian. Since he took office, he has burned three fires, and now he is a little lazy, often visiting the following states and counties in the name of inspecting the subordinate counties.
Emperor Taizu was afraid that such officials would disturb the people, and strictly forbade officials to go to the countryside in the "Da Ming Law". However, there are policies and countermeasures, and the Kochi Prefecture has to go along with those who have excelled in the evaluation of the prefecture and county schools every time under the guise of the cultural association, which is to revitalize the local culture and education, and belong to the good officials who are diligent and promising.
The Kochi Mansion had only returned to the government office the day before, and the tour had not yet completely retreated, and he was still thinking about writing a few poems to commemorate the trip. He sat in the second hall and was quite absent-minded, thinking that after sending the unruly pharmacy ambassador earlier, he would go back to the study to write two letters and see if he could produce a collection.
Xu Xiaole stood at the door and tidied up the dark cyan round-necked robe. Although I have worn it a few times, I still feel a little uncomfortable. He often thinks that it would be nice if he could wear civilian clothes. It's a pity that although the pharmacy ambassador is not in the stream, he is also a member of the imperial court, and he must always pay attention to his appearance.
When the Kochifu heard Ambassador Xu report to the door, he raised his eyes and was startled: What a daytime, isn't this his deceased friend! He fixed his eyes and saw that this Ambassador Xu was still young, his face was immature, his beard had not grown, and he was definitely not his old man, so he put on a calm posture and said, "You are Ambassador Xu?" ”
Xu Xiaole said: "Humble Xu Xiaole, I have seen Lao Huangtang. When he said this, he almost laughed. These words were taught to him by Tan Gongchao, and they were very appropriate when they came out of Mr. Tan's mouth, but when Xu Xiaole said them, it was extremely funny.
Kochifu looked dazed, and secretly said in his heart: Is there anything funny? He looked down at his robe, there was no problem, could it be that the crown was crooked? He quietly straightened the crown scarf and said, "Ambassador Xu, the Criminal Department of the Ma family murder case has issued a note, and it is over. However, in the future, you will still have to take care of it in Qionglong Mountain. ”
Xu Xiaole said secretly: How can I take care of the law? It's not the official business of the government, can it still be transferred?
After Gao Zhifu finished speaking, he looked at Xu Xiaole's face again, and couldn't help asking, "Ambassador Xu is a child of a medical household?" ”
Xu Xiaole was a little strange: This old man asked so strangely, how can a child of a non-medical household serve as a medical officer.
He said, "Exactly." ”
Kochifu let out an "oh", making Xu Xiaole even more inexplicable. He thought that after the prefect finished speaking, he should retire, but looking at the look of the prefect's face, he seemed to have something to say. What to do if you can't eat for a while.
After a long time of cold in the second hall, Kochifu finally spoke: "Which county is Ambassador Xu's house in?" ”
Xu Xiaole said: "The humble family is in Wu County. ”
Kochifu asked, "Which one?" ”
