The autumn rain is sprinkled down with the autumn wind, and the sky is cloudy and cold. This kind of imagery always makes the literati and ink writers turn into all kinds of sorrow that they want to say and are ashamed, and they clog their hearts. And now, the officials and people of many prefectures and counties in Shandong are worried about this long-standing autumn rain.

Although the rain was not as intense as the summer rainstorm, it did not stop for more than half a month, but it also brought a lot of inconvenience to the localities, some low-lying places and even the roads were encroached upon by stagnant water, and in addition, the wheat in the fields that were about to enter the autumn harvest season was almost unsupportable, and the farmers had to use various methods to scoop out the stagnant water stored in the fields.

And this is not the place that makes many state and county yamen feel threatened, what really makes these old men feel uneasy is that the water level of the Yellow River in the territory is rising gradually with time, and it is very likely that the river water will break the embankment and pour into the city.

It's not that they're worrying about the sky, it's really that the temperament of the Yellow River is like a woman who has come to the body, which is too elusive. And a few months ago, the Yellow River was diverted on the Henan side, causing disasters in several counties and the destruction of nearly 100,000 homes. With the lessons of the past in sight, local officials in Shandong naturally did not dare to take it lightly, and officials from several prefectures and counties near the river would personally take people to inspect the vicinity of the important river embankment from time to time.

Xia Weiqiu, the county magistrate of Lijin County, was one of the many officials, and because Lijin County was located near the mouth of the Yellow River, the water was even stronger, so the burden on his body was naturally heavier. In the past half a month, he would walk up and down the embankment with his yacha and his entourage every three days to see if there were any problems.

After noon today, after dealing with the chores at hand, Xia Xian Ling once again led people to the river embankment to observe the water situation. Looking at the turbid river that was only six or seven feet away from the top of the dam, he frowned again: "It seems that someone has to come and increase the embankment and strengthen it a little more, otherwise I will always be unable to let go of it." ”

"That's what the adults say, and that's what the little ones mean." An attaché hurriedly chimed in: "It's better to take advantage of the fact that the wind and rain have been lighter in the past two days and mobilize the people in the county." ”

"Hmm......" Xia Weiqiu nodded in approval, and at the same time sighed lowly: "It's really an eventful time now." Not only is the weather so bad, but the city of Jinan has given us such a problem...... "Because Lijin County is close to the sea and is under the jurisdiction of Jinan Prefecture, someone has come to inspect whether this place is suitable for opening a port, which makes Xia Zhi County, which is influenced by Confucianism, quite irritable."

The people around him naturally understood why he came to sigh this way, but the matter was something that the boss yamen, and when he heard that it was still something that the new governor had decided to do, they and other little people naturally did not dare to judge it, so they could only laugh with them on the side.

Xia Weiqiu saw their thoughts, so he shook his head lightly and didn't say anything more. In fact, not to mention these people, even he, the county magistrate, would not dare to oppose this matter. Two days ago, the members from the provincial capital, as well as the accompanying Jinyi guard, were personally accompanied by him, the county commander, to the beach to check the situation.

"Hey, what's that?" A surprised voice sounded from his side, interrupting Xia Zhixian's thoughts, and he couldn't help but raise his eyes and follow the direction of the people around him to open the river in front of him.

At first glance, a few of the people on the embankment exclaimed: "That looks like a person...... and when they look again, they realize that the thing that floats in the water is really a human body.

"Quick...... Hurry up and save people! The first reaction of the crowd was that someone had stumbled and fallen into the Yellow River, so they quickly shouted.

After a while, several long bamboo poles were tied together, and then stretched out by a few people, and many people shouted at the figure in the river. But the man a few feet away did not move, nor struggled, nor shouted.

It was only then that everyone was convinced of one thing - this person in the water must have drowned!

But even so, what should be done had to be done, and immediately someone brought a few bamboo poles, and stretched them out to the side of the person who fell into the water, and pulled them for a while.

At this time, it also reflects how good these people who have been staying by the water for many years have done their work. Even though the distance was not short, and the river was quite fast, they used the most rudimentary tools, but after a little stroke, they managed to get the overboard floating on the water to the shore.

Later, the bold climbed out of the embankment and used ropes to scoop up the person who had been identified as a corpse. When the body was fished up, everyone's reaction was actually quite calm, without much fuss. Because Lijin is close to the Yellow River and the sea, every time someone will stumble or commit suicide and throw themselves into the water, they will always catch the corpse.

In everyone's opinion, this corpse should be no different today, as long as it is brought back to the county seat, put it in Yizhuang, and then let the government post a notice to identify the corpse, it will be over. And Xia Weiqiu just glanced at the corpse casually, and planned to go back to the county office, and bumped into a corpse when he went out, which is really not an auspicious thing.

It's just that his eyes swept over, but he couldn't pull it out anymore, his gaze was locked directly on the corpse's slightly swollen face, which had been blistered with water, and his expression changed drastically. The few attachés around him were also stunned when they saw this, and then they also looked at the corpse carefully, and at a glance, someone couldn't help but let out an exclamation: "What...... How could it be him? ”

As soon as he said this, Xia Weiqiu was convinced that he was right. This body that died in the Yellow River and was salvaged was one of the brocade guards who was personally received by him a few days ago!

How is this possible? How could the people of the Jinyi Guard stumble and fall into the water? Moreover, they came to Lijin four or five days ago, and their errands were all done, how could they still stay here, and in the end they became a corpse! All kinds of doubts suddenly hit my heart, making Xia Zhixian stunned as a whole.

At this time, a squad leader in the county government let out another exclamation: "There are traces of being tied up on his hands!" He...... Didn't he fall overboard and die? It was only at this sharp-eyed reminder that the crowd suddenly saw that there were several marks on his wrists and arms, which were also swollen and even festered, slightly darker than their skin color, which were only left by the ropes.

Before Xia Weiqiu could react further, someone found a bigger problem: "He has a ...... on his chest" The bold man who spoke reached out and pulled open the corpse's clothes, and a shocking knife mark that reached straight to the heart was exposed in front of everyone.

At this time, even inexperienced people can be sure that this person did not die accidentally, but was killed by someone, and then thrown into the river. Apparently, after killing him, the murderer tied the body with a rope to a heavy object such as stones and sank it into the river. It was only because of the turbulent flow of the Yellow River that the rope that tied the heavy object was broken, and the body lacked restraint, so that it resurfaced and was found by them.

This realization made everyone present nervous, this case is too big and too bad!

At this time, the folk customs in Daming were quite simple, and there were almost no vicious cases, let alone a big case like this one that killed and sank corpses, almost all of them saw such a thing for the first time in their lives.

And Xia Weiqiu's face looked even more ugly, knowing the identity of this corpse, he only felt a blackness in front of him, no matter whether this case can be solved in the end or not, his responsibility must not be small. If it weren't for the people around him in time, the panicked magistrate would almost have fallen headlong on this muddy embankment.

In the confusion, Xia Zhixian didn't know how he went back to the county seat and entered the yamen. It wasn't until he drank a bowl of ginger tea to dispel the cold and calm down that he came back to his senses, but his face was still pale.

Although on the surface, he didn't look down on those brocade guards, but in fact, he was still quite jealous of this Tianzi guard. Now a Jinyi guard who came to the county died in an unknown way, he only felt that a steel knife was hanging over his head, and it seemed that he could kill himself at any time.

"Dong Weng, I heard that a business trip who came to the county government two days ago had an accident?" A voice came in a hurry, but it was his master who came after learning the news.

After a while, Xia Weiqiu nodded and admitted: "Yes, he was still killed and thrown into the river...... "Saying, his hand rubbed his face hard: "How could such a thing happen?" Sir, what should I do? ”

"This ......" Master's face also became nervous. But it is impossible for him to stay out of the matter, after all, as an official's staff, he and Xia Zhixian are one. After a little silence, he carefully said with his words: "Dong Weng, this matter must not be simple, otherwise it is impossible to have an accident with the skills of the people in the brocade guard." Therefore, with the student's humble opinion, it is better for us to report the matter to the government as soon as possible. ”

"But in this way, the official will be implicated...... Like many officials, Xia Weiqiu's first reaction was to cover the lid when something happened.

"The killing of Jin Yiwei is a big deal, and there are really many people who saw this on the river embankment today, and the news will definitely not be hidden. So Dong Weng, we must take the initiative. The master immediately persuaded him: "Otherwise, even if this matter has nothing to do with my county, it will be used by someone with a heart." ”

"Okay, then do as the gentleman wants." Xia Weiqiu nodded helplessly.

"Another point, that is, in addition to reporting to the government office, it is best to report the news to the people of Jinan Qianhu Office......" Master continued.

Regarding this decision, Xia Weiqiu was stunned for a moment, and then nodded weakly: "Just handle it as it is, and immediately let someone send a letter to the provincial capital......
