"It's not certain whether Yan Sun is a murderer or not, don't be too excited, official." The melon-eating woman pulled Wang Xianke's sleeve and wiped her hands on Wang Xianke's body, "I think that Dong Xuan is not necessarily a murderer." Dong Duan and Dong Li get along day and night, and when they see the uprising, they will inevitably do offensive things. Dong Li is difficult to be lonely, and it is reasonable to be with Dong Xuan. After the incident, Dong Duan planted the blame on Yan Sun, and killed Ma Xiaosan and his wife...... It makes sense. ”

"What do you know? If you don't know, don't talk nonsense! Wang Xianke glared at the melon-eating woman with extreme dissatisfaction, "Lady, didn't you say it to your husband, Dong Duan is a decent person, how could he have an affair with his sister-in-law?" Even if he disregards humanity and has an adulterous affair with his sister-in-law, he will never kill his brother. Dong Xian and Dong Duan, their parents have been absent since childhood, they depend on each other for their lives, and they have a deep brotherly relationship, how can a sibling family harm each other? ”

Xia Xiang was silent, he already had a little bit of a plan in his heart, and he was probably a little clear about this matter.

The melon-eating woman wanted to argue a few more words, but Lian Ruohan interjected: "What is the cause of Dong Xian's death?" Why did Ma Xiaosan and his wife die? ”

Even Ruohan was originally indifferent to this matter, and it is true that she has been pampered since she was a child, and she has never tasted the hardships of the world, and she doesn't know how difficult it is for the people to survive, not that she has no mercy for the dead, but in her opinion, no matter how big the grievances are, there will always be a day when the clouds will see the day. After not wanting to listen to Wang Xianke's words, she realized the complexity of the case. What made her even more puzzled was that Pei Shuozhang was in the sedan chair, and half a day had passed, but he didn't get out of the sedan chair, which was really out of his parents' official demeanor.

The melon-eating woman raised her eyes and swept Lian Ruohan, her originally crooked body instantly stood up straight, her eyes were straight, her eyes were surprised, and she stammered: "Yo, yo, yo, my Wang Sun is so big or the first time I have seen such a peugeot little lady, this Langjun, the blessing you have cultivated for several lifetimes, you have married such a delicate lady like a flower......"

Xia Xiang smiled, and was about to boast a few words to himself, so as to show that he was also a talented and good-looking Langjun, but Wang Sun said another sentence and almost didn't choke him.

"Look at your poor and sour appearance, you look pretty good, but you are too poor, a dress is not worth a few pennies, and you are holding a black fan, and the things on your body are not as valuable as a hairpin of the little lady, you marry her, and I don't know where to burn the high incense."

Xia Xiang held it in his mouth, his face turned red, and he wanted to tell Wang Sun that the black fan in his hand was given by Cao Shujun, worth more than dozens of taels of silver, but he felt that arguing with her was a good share, although he was still a teenager and had just a weak crown, he was already a county honor, and he had to follow the rules and regulations in every word and deed.

Lian Ruohan covered her mouth and smiled, Xia Xiang was speechless by a woman in the market, for some reason, she couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in her heart. It's not that she likes to see Xia Xiang's helpless and embarrassed appearance, but that Xia Xiang, as a dignified magistrate, can't be seen with the common people, especially when Wang Sun said that Xia Xiang married her is Xia Xiang's blessing, which makes her extremely useful.

Thinking about it again, no, Lian Ruohan's face was slightly hot, why was she so happy to hear that she was Xia Xiang's wife? Could it be that she really likes Xia Xiang? How could it be, although Xia Xiang was born in Jinshi and was a magistrate, compared with her family, she was still just a speck of dust. Looking at the entire Great Xia, how many weak champions have been in high school after entering the Shishi, or joining Hanlin, or going out to the county, which seems to have a bright future, and finally disappeared without a trace in the court disputes and the ups and downs of officialdom, abound.

Although Xia Xiang stirred up the situation in all directions when he first entered the court, he was regarded as a thorn in the side of the three princes, and was used as a pawn by King Qing and King Jian, but who would dare to judge that he would really take office, Xia Xiang would not fall into the tiger's den in Longtan, and be crushed and torn apart by the local forces of the three princes?

Thinking like this, Lian Ruohan's mind quickly cooled, and she glanced at Xia Xiang lightly, and her heart was firm, if Xia Xiang had the power to soar to the sky, she was willing to help him, if Xia Xiang was unable to resist the crushing of the three princes, she would give up Xia Xiang without hesitation, just as she had abandoned Wen Changju before.

Although she can make her own decisions in marriage matters, she will not be willful in the face of family interests, let alone take family interests as a bet.

"Lang Jun is not my official." Even Ruohan's expression was indifferent, and he was a little displeased, "Wang Sun, I just asked you, answer quickly." ”

Wang Sun was forced by Lian Ruohan's momentum, and was inexplicably a little timid, and he didn't dare to show his usual pungency, so he hurriedly said: "Little lady, don't be in a hurry, listen to me slowly." Dong Xian and Ma Xiaosan both threw themselves into the river and died. ”

"Throw yourself into the river?" Xia Xiang grew up in Zhongshan Village, and is familiar with the geographical environment of Lingshou, Zhending and Shile, except for the Hutuo River crossing Lingshou and Zhending, there are no rivers flowing through Shile, "I have never heard of rivers in Shile." ”

"You're right, they voted for the real Hutuo River." Wang Sunshi slapped his thigh, and a raging fire of gossip ignited in his eyes, "The Hutuo River is still fifty or sixty miles away from Shile, you said that even if Dong Xian and Ma Xiaosan and his wife die, they can't commit suicide by running to the Hutuo River fifty or sixty miles away." Dong Duan was also stubborn, and he had to pull back the bodies of Ma Xiaosan and his wife, poor Dong Xian, he didn't even find the body after throwing himself into the river, and he didn't know where it was washed by the river. ”

It turned out that the two died in Zhending, Xia Xiang suddenly realized, no wonder Pei Shuozhang refused to get out of the sedan chair, although the deceased Dong Xian was a city musician, but died in Zhending, and the case should be tried by Zhending County. Pei Shuozhang wanted to shirk responsibility, not to take matters into account.

Thinking about it, Pei Shuozhang is the year of assessment this year, this case seems simple, but it is three lives, and it can be regarded as a big case. Ma Xiaosan and his wife are not from the city music, and they did not die in the city music, so it is reasonable that he does not take the case. I'm afraid that he will blame Dong Duan for a lot of things at this time, why do you have to go to great lengths to transport Ma Xiaosan and his wife back to Shile, wouldn't it be better to report to the local officials in Zhending?

"Suicide by throwing yourself into the river?" The more Xia Xiang listened, the more he didn't understand, "Since it is suicide, it is not murder, why does Dong Duan want to block the road and shout injustice?" ”

"How can it be suicide? Dong Xian's family is rich and has a beautiful wife, how could he not think about it back then? If you retreat 10,000 times, even if Dong Xian doesn't want to live, jumping into a well, hanging himself, and cutting his neck, there are some methods, he has to run to the Hutuo River dozens of miles away and commit suicide by throwing himself into the river, isn't this tossing to death? People who really want to die, how to die as quickly as possible, no one will run so far to jump into the river, isn't this a reason, lady? Wang Xianke grinned with a flattering smile.

Wang Sun pointed at Wang Xianke's head: "Are you smart?" Why did Pei Xianzun say that he committed suicide? ”

Xia Xiang understood a little more in his heart, and said: "Did the county zun first refuse to accept the case on the grounds that a few people committed suicide by throwing themselves into the river, Dong Duan refused to accept it, and continued to complain, and the county zun refused to accept the case again on the grounds that the deceased died in Zhending County, and the jurisdiction of Zhending County refused to accept the case again, and Dong Duancai blocked the road and shouted injustice?" ”

Wang Xianke's eyes widened: "What you said is all right...... Did you guess or hear it? ”

Xia Xiang sighed slightly in his heart, but his face was as calm as ever, and he saluted Wang Xianke: "Thank you." Then he came to the blue sedan chair and said loudly, "Brother Pei, please get off the sedan chair and see you." ”

An official stepped forward and viciously tried to push Xia Xiang away, Xiao Wu flipped his wrist and slapped the officer's arm, the official took a few steps back, and sat on the ground with a thud.

The officials were furious, and with a greeting, several officials rushed up and surrounded Xiao Wu and Xia Xiang. Manta had been watching from afar, but when he saw that things had changed, he immediately jumped into the middle, stood with his sword in his hand, and ignored the officials.

A majestic cough came from the sedan chair: "Who is making noise here?" ”

The official is full of authority, and in the indifference of the voice, there is a bit of high authority.

Xia Xiang took a step forward, and the officials rushed up in two columns, wanting to stop Xia Xiang, Xia Xiang chuckled: "Brother Pei, under Xia Xiang, go to Zhending, passing through your land, you shouldn't bother ......"

"Xia Xiang? But the new Zhending Zhi County Xia County Zun? There was an exclamation in the sedan chair, the curtain flashed, and a person took a step out of the sedan chair, and his footsteps came to Xia Xiang quickly, and he saluted, "Xia Xianzun passed through this county, and he never greeted, rude, rude!" ”

Then he glanced at the officials again, and snorted coldly: "Don't be rude, don't retreat!" ”

Pei Shuozhang is about thirty years old, with a white face and no beard, dressed in civilian clothes, not wearing official clothes, with a long face and light eyebrows, thin lips, many whites of his eyes, and a little heroic.

Shile is just a Wangxian County, far inferior to the Zhending of Cichi County. Lezhi County, the previous city, is Bapinzhi County, but Pei Shuozhang is from Liupin, which shows that he has a great background. The grades of Daxia Zhixian range from eight to six, and not all of them are seven.

Pei Shuozhang is not only a few years older than Xia Xiang, but also more qualified than Xia Xiang, and Xia Xiang is passing through the city, according to common sense, Xia Xiang either passed by quietly, or came to visit, there is no reason for Pei Shuozhang to greet him. Pei Shuozhang was so polite, Xia Xiang understood in his heart that Pei Shuozhang wanted to push the boat down the river and push the tricky case of Dong Xian and Ma Xiaosan onto him.

What the? Xiao Langjun, who is dressed in shabby clothes, is he really Dingzhi County? Wang Xianke's ears couldn't believe it, how could it be, he was too unattractive, okay, Xia Xiang did look pretty good, but his clothes were too ordinary and ordinary, and the most important thing was that he was too young.

Thinking of the disrespect to Xia Xiang just now, Wang Xianke was suddenly afraid, his legs trembled, and he put his hands on Wang Sun's shoulders so that he did not slump on the ground, he stammered and said: "Mother, mother, Lang Jun just now is really a county, and he is a big county, but he is too young, I am afraid that he has just been weak...... Lady, I seem to be a little rude to Xia Xianzun just now, will he cure my crimes? ”

Although Wang Sun's family is spicy, he has never spoken to the county zun face to face so closely, and he is also frightened: "I, I, how do I know if the county zun will punish you, who made you not have long eyes, and I don't know how much to restrain when you speak." ”

"Do you blame me? Who said that the county is poor and sour? "Wang Xianke is so anxious that he wants to jump to his feet, the more he thinks about it, the more he is afraid, for the people of Pingtou, the county is the sky, the county order is broken, the history of the assassination of the door, the county is able to make the Shengdou small people ruin in a word, he is in a cold sweat, "Wait and make amends to the county Zun, I hope that the county will have a large number of people, and I will not remember the villain." ”

Lian Ruohan was amused by the appearance of the two of them, and said: "You two don't have to be afraid, Xia County is really Dingzhi County, not Lezhi County, and I can't control you, and I can't cure your crimes." ”

Xia Xiang also heard Wang Xianke's words, smiled silently, and returned a salute to Pei Shuozhang: "Pei Xianzun, this official takes the liberty to ask, the murder of Dong Xian and Ma Xiaosan happened in Zhending County?" ”

Pei Shuozhang received a few days ago the official document of the Ministry of Officials, within a few days, the officials of the Ministry of Officials will come to the city to evaluate his three-year term of the city of Lezhi County, which is excellent and poor, and it is related to his next promotion.

Pei Shuozhang was carefully preparing to meet the officials of the Ministry of Officials, but suddenly there was a murder case of Dong Xian and Ma Xiaosan, which made him very annoyed and headache. No matter how much the officials want him to be assessed as excellent, he must have nothing to do on the surface, if the case of three lives cannot be solved, he will not even be able to assess the average, and he will definitely be poor.

I want him to live peacefully for three years, but when I don't want to leave, there is a sudden change, how can it not be annoying? What made him even more angry was that it was clear that the murder happened in Zhending, Dong Duan had to go back to the city to complain, and he was unmoved by how he sent someone to reason and coercion and temptation, he was really an elm head, a big Diao Min!

What made Pei Shuozhang even more angry was that Dong Duan dared to kneel down on the street and shout injustice, and also scattered the bodies of Ma Xiaosan and his wife on the street, clearly trying to force him to take over the case, which was unbearable, he was furious, and gave instructions to the county lieutenant Fan Li in the sedan chair, wanting Fan Li to secretly inform Fu Ke and others to gather a group of scoundrels to beat Dong Duan, so that he could take the opportunity to get out.

Fan Li took the order and left, Pei Shuozhang patiently hid in the sedan chair, let Dong Duan cry outside, let Yan Sun and Dong Li shout loudly, he still stood still, and calmly took out the fan and shook it a few times, thinking in his heart, it is really difficult to be a magistrate, or a Beijing official is relaxed, there are not so many worries. Diao Min always makes trouble for no reason, but it is a big fart, and it should be regarded as a big grievance, isn't it that Dong Xian and Ma Xiaosan committed suicide by throwing themselves into the river? If a person wants to die, it is difficult to stay, so what does it matter to his county? Could it be that whoever dies blames him for his inability to govern? Joke, big joke!

Since he committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, how good is it to bury himself by himself, where is he still needed to open a court to try the case? It's really a shrew.

Zhending County is too, the county has been empty for more than three months, why haven't you seen the new county magistrate take office? If Zhending Zhixian is in office, the murder case that occurred in Zhending should be tried by Zhending.

The day before yesterday, I received a letter from the capital, saying that Xia Xiang of Zhending Zhi County would not be in office soon, and the newly promoted Jinshi would serve as Zhending Zhi County for the first time, which could be regarded as a heavy responsibility. But...... Pei Shuozhang couldn't be more clear about what Xia Xiang did in the capital, as soon as Xia Xiang entered the capital, he stirred up the situation in all directions, and provoked the three princes to be angry, which made him sneer at Xia Xiang's name, but he sneered at it. He admired Xia Xiang's newborn calf's strength and was not afraid of tigers, but he ridiculed Xia Xiang's recklessness without knowing the sky.

I didn't want to meet Xia Xiang unexpectedly in Shile today, Pei Shuozhang was surprised and happy. Xia Xiang came at a really good time, as soon as Xia Xiang arrived, he could logically transfer the case of Dong Xian and Ma Xiaosan to Xia Xiang, and then he would sit back and greet the assessment of the officials.

Thinking about it like this, Pei Shuozhang suddenly felt that Xia Xiang was really a good person, such a tricky matter was about to be solved because of Xia Xiang's unexpected arrival, and he should be grateful to Xia Xiang. Moreover, Xia Xiang took the initiative to ask whether this case happened in Zhending, and he was even more overjoyed, hurriedly took a step forward, and stretched out his hand to hold Xia Xiang's arm: "Brother Xia, please take a step to speak." ”

Xia Xiang was shocked, he and Pei Shuozhang had never known each other in their lives, how could they be so enthusiastic when they met for the first time? smiled at the moment, turned around and nodded at Lian Ruohan and Xiao Wu, and followed Pei Shuozhang into the teahouse on the side of the road.

The teahouse is not big, although it can not be compared with the luxurious and spacious teahouse in Shangjing, but it is also quite characteristic and emotional, but the stairs are in disrepair, and when you go upstairs, your feet creak and make people suspicious that you will step on the air and fall downstairs if you are not careful.

When he arrived on the second floor and entered a secluded room, Pei Shuozhang let people serve tea, waved his subordinates away, and then smiled kindly again, and said to Xia Xiang: "Brother Xia is really timely rain, it is too timely, the murder that happened in Zhending County, because the people were ignorant, transported the corpse to the city, and blocked the street to shout grievances. You can also see clearly that if the official does not get out of the sedan chair, he will not dare to trespass. At the beginning of Brother Xia's tenure, he could start to try a major murder case, which was to share the worries of the saints and avenge the people, and it was also a great fortune for the officials to be officials. ”

Xia Xiang remained silent, took a sip of tea slowly, and glanced out the window, on the street outside the window, there were still hundreds of people watching, all wanting to see how the county respected the case in the end, but they didn't know that the county zun who they wanted to wear was leisurely drinking tea upstairs in the teahouse at this time, and had no intention of trying the case at all.

"That's the case, but there is still something ......unclear about the official" Xia Xiang actually wanted to take over the case, although he also knew that he encountered such a tricky case at the beginning of his tenure, it was not a great fortune for officials, how could the misfortune of the people be a great fortune for officials, he glanced at Pei Shuozhang lightly, "Pei Xianzun, the people are wronged, and those who are officials should work tirelessly to solve problems for the people." Dong Duan was originally a city musician, Dong Xian is also, and the defendants Yan Sun and Dong Li are also city musicians, Dong Duan transported the body back to the city music, it is the love and trust of Pei Xianzun, Pei Xianzun tried this case, not only to share the worries of the saints, but also to avenge the people, how to say that it is arrogant? ”

Pei Shuozhang took a sip of tea in his mouth, wanted to swallow it but couldn't swallow it, he was really uncomfortable. He originally thought that Xia Xiang would respond to this matter, with Xia Xiang's youth and vigor, someone has a lawsuit, and he should have a lot of expectations to show his means to ask for the people's lives, and he didn't want Xia Xiang to shirk it, so he couldn't help but be uncertain about it. Hearing Xia Xiang commensurate with his official position, he was slightly stunned in his heart, knowing that Xia Xiang wanted to do business with him, and thought about it again, yes, calmly maneuvering between several princes, although he was young, although he had just entered the officialdom, he could not be taken lightly.
