Chapter 104

When Yang Shangjing, Yang Ye, and Shen Xing met, they found that the faces of the two Shangguan were not very good, with anger and doubt on their faces, and more solemn.

In the end, it is one level lower than Yang Ye, and this qi cultivation kung fu is a little worse, when Shen Xing saw Yang Shangjing, he asked impatiently: "Virtuous nephew, what is the situation now?" ”

Yang Shangjing was silent for a while, resisted the desire to complain, and said in a deep voice: "Liu Qi died at home, as if he committed suicide by taking poison, but this move is very suspicious. Although Jian has not been in Huangyan County for a long time, he also has an understanding of his subordinate adjutants, this Liu Qi is just a grass-like figure on the wall, and he definitely does not have the courage to commit suicide, so he can't say what else is hidden in it, so Jian invited two Shangguan to go and investigate. ”

After saying this, Yang Shangjing also suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, no wonder Shen Xing is sensitive to this matter, in the feudal morality with "benevolence" and "courtesy" as the core, once Yang Shangjing is charged with "harsh", "tyrannical", "murderous" and other crimes, the two of them are now on Yang Shangjing's land, helping Yang Shangjing to deal with the Huang family's rebellion case and Liu Qi's suicide case.

There are no eternal friends in the officialdom, and there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests, once this name spreads, it will definitely cause a great blow to the reputation of the two, which is a proper insulting move, and when the time comes, the people who are staring at their two positions will definitely jump up and down, and if they can't say it, they will be squeezed out directly, and their vital interests will be at stake, and they can't help but be in a hurry.

Thinking of this, Yang Shangjing turned to Yang Ye and gave a deep salute: "Uncle Shi's Prime Minister Zhejiang Criminal Prison must have something unique about the way of criminal name, and when I go to Liu Qi's house later, I will have to rely on Uncle Shi a lot." ”

After all, he had discussed a series of transfer issues with Yang Shangjing before for the official positions in Huangyan County, and Yang Ye still knew Yang Shangjing's ability to control the officialdom of Huangyan County, so after listening to Yang Shangjing's words, Yang Ye nodded and said in a deep voice: "Naturally, you also bring the county's work and go over for an autopsy together." ”

After a pause, Yang Ye said: "Since it is the case of Huangyan County, this matter is still tried by the virtuous nephew." ”

Yang Ye was born in Hanlin, although after leaving the Hanlin Academy, he walked in the system of the criminal prosecution and envoy all the way, but for this kind of thing, it is a little stronger than a black eye, but it is still that sentence, he can be the prime minister of Zhejiang Criminal Prison, and there must be no shortage of people under his hands, plus this kind of thing is of course better to brainstorm, so even if you look down on these low-end works of the county government from the heart, you have to bring it, this is like buying a lottery ticket, what if you win?

As for the latter sentence, it is a case of throwing the pot and ruining the reputation, if you can not take it from yourself, you will not take it from yourself, Yang Rong is not false to him, but Yang Rong has been dead for three or four years, so Yang Shangjing can only agree with this.

After finalizing these, the three of them took all the people and went straight to Liu Qi's house out of the county office.

In fact, Liu Qi's house is not far from the county government, it is the prosperous low-end of the county, after all, it is the nominal third-in-command of the county government, whether it is treatment or status, it is not bad, so everyone soon came to the place, as soon as the door was opened, they saw Liu Qi's wife crying bitterly in front of the door of the study with a young son, and the two soaps were tigers, just not letting the two go in, and protecting the crime scene This kind of thing must also be done in the Ming Dynasty.

As soon as she saw Yang Shangjing and the others coming in, the woman immediately retracted, turned her head, stared at Yang Shangjing's eyes full of resentment, let go of the child, and pounced on Yang Shangjing like crazy: "You were killed by the sky, you will return my husband's life!" ”

Seeing this, Yang Shangjing frowned, where would the errand next to her make her pounce, and immediately walked over to the two female servants, and directly held Liu Qi's wife, Yang Shangjing frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Liu Cheng's, Hugh has to talk nonsense, your husband committed suicide by poisoning at home, what does it have to do with this county?" If you are unreasonable, don't blame the county for being ruthless! ”

At this time, it is necessary to pay attention to the art of language, suicide by poisoning and suicide by poisoning, the difference between one word is two concepts, suicide by poisoning does not rule out the option of committing suicide by poisoning, but it contains another possibility, so listening to Yang Shangjing's words, Yang Ye, who has also been acting for many years, nodded slightly.

"How could I have been talking nonsense? Now in Huangyan County, who doesn't know that your Yang Zhixian is the birth of Sirius, as soon as he arrived, he destroyed the Huang family, if my husband was not afraid that you would beat him to death, how could he commit suicide by taking poison?! Liu Cheng's face was resentful, and his eyes were like poisonous snakes that chose people to devour, staring at Yang Shangjing's face, "I want my husband to work hard all his life......"

Yang Shangjing was stared at by her so that goosebumps straightened up on her back, and she snorted coldly, interrupting her angry scolding: "Shut up!" ”

As soon as the words fell, without waiting for Liu Cheng's to really shut up, the maid next to her skillfully blocked her mouth, Yang Shangjing took a deep breath, turned his head to Yang Ye and Shen Xing and said: "Sage Yun, only villains and women are difficult to raise, this word is honest and does not deceive me, this woman is so rude, and now I don't know what the situation is, so I threw the blame on the lower officials." ”

Shaking his head, Yang Shangjing waved his hand and called an errand officer: "Go and bring one of the Liu family's subordinates." ”

The errand officer answered, and retreated, and it didn't take long for a small guy in a green robe to be brought up tremblingly, and he knelt down with a bang, perhaps ignoring Yang Ye and Shen Xing, and shouted directly: "Xiaomin has seen the county ......."

"Let me ask you, did your lord have any contact with outsiders last night, or in recent days?" Yang Shangjing squinted his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

The little servant knelt on the ground and replied tremblingly: "If you go back to the county, my lord has been closed at home for the past few days, and he rarely even steps out of the study, let alone sees guests." ”

Hearing this, Yang Shangjing's brows furrowed, if the study didn't come out, then there would be no outsiders, could it be that he really committed suicide?

Yang Ye, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly opened his mouth: "If you haven't seen outsiders, where did you get the poison?" Did you bring him alcohol when he was taking poison? ”

The little guy trembled more and more: "Back to ...... Back to the official master, my lord has been very depressed in recent days, although he does not go out of the study, but he often drinks alone, and this small wine is sent to the master every night. ”

Yang Shangjing touched his chin, carefully observed the movements of this little guy, and suddenly smiled: "Since this is the case, then I will go and see this Liu Qi's study and Liu Qi's corpse, so I can make a conclusion as soon as possible and let Liu Qi be buried in the ground." ”

Obviously, there is nothing to ask from the mouths of these subordinates, and in this situation, torture is not appropriate, so we can only find a breakthrough from other aspects.
