Chapter Forty-Nine, The Girl Waiting on the Street

Wang Xianling sat calmly in the main hall, holding a teacup in his hand, and was asking Liu Zhubo how the collection of autumn grain this year was? How is the water conservancy project in the county arranged?

I was too lazy to take care of Hu Xiancheng's behavior of jumping up and down, spitting and fighting for Mei Gongzi's death.

For people like Hu Xiancheng, Yi Wang County Order still has some understanding, and knows that it is his own release that occupies the position of Taiping County Order, which makes Hu County Cheng's plan come to naught.

But officialdom is like this, it will give way with warmth.

Although when he first took office, this Hu Xiancheng also tossed a few things for him to stumble.

But soon let him grasp the other party's handle, and let the old boy be honest for a while, but he didn't expect that the relatives who had recently turned around through his song began to be uneasy again.

As a result, when he wanted to sit and see what happened to this old boy, that Mei Gongzi had an accident.

Although Mei Gongzi has a father who sits on a cold bench in Nanjing's ministry, so what, his uncle is still a close minister of the Son of Heaven and the prince's teacher Wang Wei.

The two sides are not on the same level at all.

It's just that he doesn't want to make a big show in this relationship and attract attacks from his colleagues in the officialdom.

Besides, his pattern and ambition are not something that a small county magistrate in Taiping County can satisfy, and only people like Hu Xiancheng will keep an eye on a small county magistrate position.

No matter what this Mei Gongzi died, but now, since Jinyiwei has intervened, and Liang Baihu implicitly protects the Shen family's father and son, then when the time comes, the Mei family will come to the door, and Jinyiwei will also be in front of him.

Anyway, in his opinion, since this Mei Gongzi can be mixed with a ruffian like Feng Da, it is probably not a good thing.

Maybe there is something unspeakable in this private, in case Boss Shen is really innocent, and he can't find the real murderer, he can start from Mei Gongzi, find out if Mei Gongzi is not here, and understand the case.

Speaking of this Mei Gongzi, he immediately thought that this Xia Patrol and Fang Zhutou, as well as the Shen family's kid who went to check the scene of Mei Gongzi's death again, have been there for a long time, and seeing the time for dinner, why haven't this group of people come back yet, there won't be any accidents, right?

It's really that there are too many things that have happened in Taiping County recently, so that he, who is a parent official, sometimes feels that his brain is not enough.

At this moment, Master Liu moved to his side and said in a low voice: "Master, Xia Inspector and Fang Zhutou are back, saying that they have something to tell your lord." ”

"Let them in."

All kinds of things that have happened in Taiping County recently have nothing to do with him, the magistrate, no matter what Xia and Fang find out, it can't involve him, so there is no need to let Xia and Fang reply in private, and it just so happens to let Hu Xiancheng and Meng Dianshi listen to them.

After Xia Inspector and Fang Zhutou entered the county office, they looked at the appearance of several officials in the hall, and they had a little worry in their hearts.

When Xia Patrol returned, he didn't say much about it, so he went directly to the topic, and began to tell what happened after they went to the scene of the death of Mei Gongzi's master and servant in order.

"What? There are also dead people in the Mei family's Zhuangzi? At the beginning, Hu Xiancheng listened casually, but when he listened to it, he felt that something was wrong, after all, he was not a complete fool, after hearing this, he immediately screamed, and the whole person stood up.

"Lord County, there are indeed dead people in the Mei family's Zhuangzi, there is the head of the Mei Zhuang, and a man and a woman have also died, but they can't be identified.

Especially the female corpse, according to the degree of decomposition of the corpse, it can be preliminarily judged that her death time should not be less than ten days, which means that the dead Mei Gongzi should be inseparable from the death of this woman. ”

Xia Inspector is looking at Shen Mu now, that is with the mentality of a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law, but if he wants to achieve this marriage, he must do a good job in the ideological work of his brother and sister-in-law, and more importantly, he needs to clear the charges on Boss Shen as soon as possible.

If you can't get rid of the charges on Boss Shen, don't mention this marriage, no matter how much potential Shen Mu has, if there is a murderer's father, and his niece can't get married, how can his brother and sister-in-law consider this Shen Mu.

Therefore, he particularly emphasized this point, that is, to tell Wang Xianling, regardless of whether this Shen boss killed the master and servant of the Mei Gongzi or not, this Mei Gongzi was suspected of murder in the first place.

A person suspected of murder dies when he dies, which is the normal psychology of most people.

Xia Inspector said it so bluntly, how could Hu Xiancheng not understand, his heart sank, and he also felt that things were a little tricky.

It was also at this time that he suddenly thought that after this Mei Gongzi arrived in Taiping County, although he visited him once, he really didn't know what this Mei Gongzi was doing in Taiping County.

The other party just said that he would go out to study and walk around, but he didn't feel at ease, and even thought that this kind of boy should not stay in this small place for a few days, and he would go back to Nanjing.

I didn't expect so many things to happen in just ten days.

He's not completely stupid, and he always feels that there may be some ulterior motives behind this matter, and even he will be involved in it.

However, the initiative to investigate the case is not in his hands as a county magistrate, and the two old oilmen Xia Inspector and Fang Zhutou are not something he can summon.

Not to mention, when the previous county commander was there, he had a lot of disagreements with this summer inspection, and after this Wang county commander took office, he quickly subdued the summer inspection, making the other party his dog, pointing to that and biting that, and he couldn't get along with him on weekdays.

"Not only that, we also found a Buddha hall in Meijia Zhuangzi, there is a tunnel under the Buddha hall, Wu Cheng and Xiao Si went down to explore, the exit of this tunnel happened to be not far from the place where the Jinyi Wei General Banner died."

Fang Zhutou also spoke.

He also looked at this Hu County a lot on weekdays, relying on the fact that he had read a few articles on saints, and drank five or six of them, and almost treated them as servants.

And on this day, with the kid from the Shen family, he felt that the kid from the Shen family still had a good appetite for himself, and he had a relationship with Liang Baihu, so he was a little biased in his heart at the moment, and he opened his mouth to make up for the knife.

Previously, Wang Xianling, who was quite calm, also stopped in the air at this time, and he understood the meaning of Fang Zhutou.

Is this suspected that Mei Gongzi is related to the death of Jinyi Wei Han Zongqi?

Underneath the tunnel, Wu Cheng and Xiao Si also found robes and sabers that were very similar to the clothes and sabers on the masked black-clothed man in the woods.

The most important thing is that these sabers are most likely made by the Ministry of Industry, and the standard sabers issued by the Ministry of War to the soldiers of various guard posts. Xia Patrol continued with Fang Zhutou's words.

……

After listening to the whole thing, Wang Xianling finally pondered for a moment, put down the teacup in his hand, and looked at Hu Xiancheng with a gentle expression.

"Hu Xiancheng, this case is so important that it is beyond the jurisdiction of this county, I think we should report the new discovery to Lord Jinyi Weiliang as soon as possible, what do you think?"

When Hu Xiancheng heard this, he couldn't wait to raise his hand and slap Wang Xianling's face to vent the grievances in his heart, but could he really beat him? Of course not, I can only continue to be aggrieved.

Let's say that here, after Shen Mu and the Xia Patrol Inspector were separated from the head catcher and a few other officials, he thought about it, or decided to go home first and check what the dead Jinyi Wei General Banner entrusted to him was?

Then judging from the contents of the paper package, what is the motive of the mysterious person behind the killing of Jinyi Wei Zongqi who caused this series of murders?

Why did you involve Shen's father, and what did Shen's father find?

He walked all the way in the direction of his home, and when he walked around a street corner, he saw a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, neatly dressed, standing on the corner looking at him.

The emotions in those eyes are very complicated, who is this little girl?

It won't be the original owner's peach blossom debt again, right?
