Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Three Clears Manifest Spirits

"By the way, isn't Brother Jing Ming in the county seat?" Yu Shaobai asked. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Don't mention it, something happened to his family, do you have something to do with him?"

Yu Shaobai nodded and said, "He also lost a portrait to me, and I don't know if he remembers." ”

Wu Zichu sighed: "I'm afraid he doesn't have this mind, he is preparing for the autumn exam, and I don't plan to take the exam this year." ”

"Why?"

"I am self-aware, although my eldest brother is very powerful, this is well known, but this is really difficult to examine, I plan to study hard for another two years."

Hearing this, Yu Shaobai wanted to tell him that he would not take the exam this year, and wait until next time, your children will run all over the ground, the Ming Dynasty has been raised in the past few years, and the people who have been raised in the past few years are different from those who have been raised in the future.

Because of the lack of people in the imperial court, in addition to the imperial examination, the academy recommendation, the county school recommendation, the government school recommendation, the official government promotion of filial piety and honesty, as well as the meritorious service, Wang Yi is reporting to the government in the documents, moved some selfishness, if he writes Yu Shaobai's credit, Yu Shaobai can be completely sealed by the imperial court, maybe only the last of the nine grades, but he is also an official.

"Young master, the master asked Yu Shaobai to go to the study."

Hearing this, Wu Zichu and Yu Shaobai glanced at each other, he nodded slightly, and left with the servant. When he came to the study, he saw Wu Chunzheng and Wang Yizheng drinking tea, he bowed his hand and said, "Wu Xiancheng, are you looking for me?" ”

"It's not that the official is looking for you, but that Wang Tuiguan heard that you helped Zichu solve two murder cases, and I hope you and Zichu can help solve the case, but Lord Tuiguan, the lower official thinks that the dog can be alone, you see ......"

Wang Yizheng is also a thoughtful person, seeing Wu Chun's contempt for Yu Shaobai, he said with a smile: "Ling Lang has cracked two cases successively, which is naturally rare, but I think both of them have merits, I hope to help the official, I don't know if Yu Gongzi is willing?" ”

Seeing Wu Chunchao secretly waving his hand to himself, Yu Shaobai sighed, "The adults are kind, Shaobai has a heart, but I really don't dare to assist the adults to solve the case, the word assistance is too heavy, and it is not difficult to give advice to the adults." ”

Wang Yizheng nodded slightly, he didn't drill the horns, as long as it can help solve the case, "Without further ado, this official has never been to Lijia Village, you and Wu Gongzi will accompany Gongzi for a while." ”

"My lord, don't you need to be accompanied by a lower official?" Wu Chun leaned forward with a "resentful" face, with a flattering look, Yu Shaobai looked at the expression of his future father-in-law, and remembered the pug, can't he be a little disciplined?

However, to Wu Chun's disappointment, Wang Yizheng did not let him go with him, because he was going to investigate the case and let Wu Chun, the county prince, accompany him, and he was not immediately recognized by the people? It's like a lighthouse in the night.

"Yu Shaobai, come here." Watching Liu Tuiguan walk out of the room, Wu Chun grabbed Yu Shaobai and said, "This time, you follow Lord Tuiguan to investigate the case, don't steal the limelight from Zichu, you should be clear." ”

Yu Shaobai looked at the domineering appearance, and felt a little angry in his heart, but thinking of the Wu family brothers and sisters, he squeezed out a smile: "Lord County Cheng has raised Shaobai, how did the poor boy who is worthless in your eyes snatch Ling Lang, is it possible that you are so unconfident?" After saying that, Yu Shaobai turned around and left, and the conversation that seemed to him was quite gentle, but it was Wu Chunqi's blowing beard and glaring.

A quarter of an hour later, the carriage drove out of Sanhe Lane in front of Wu's house, and Yu Shaobai and Wu Zichu accompanied Wang Tuiguan out of the county seat and rushed towards Lijia Village, Taiping Township.

Yu Shaobai took the official records and flipped through them, and roughly understood the murder case in Lijia Village, Taiping Township, the biggest suspicion is that the five women died at the same time, the scene of the first crime was also in the same house, and the way of death was hanging, after an autopsy, there were no wounds on the body, so it seems that this case is really weird, collective suicide? Shouldn't that happen?

In addition to the mysterious death of five daughters, there is also the case of the murder of Li Laohan's second son, the deceased was bruised in many places all over his body, and was beaten before his death, fatally wounded on the head.

"This case, the city is urging a lot, which of you two has a good mouth, go to Li Laohan's house."

Hearing this, Yu Shaobai and Wu Zichu were a little puzzled, "My lord, what do you mean by this?" ”

"This ...... Li Laohan is too stubborn, our government has increased its efforts to handle the case, but he has always insisted that it is Li Jun, the son of Li Maocai, the rich man of the same village, who drunk and killed his second son, and the tragedy that happened the next day was also determined to be the revenge of the Li family, he felt that the murderer had not been found, it was the government that received the benefits of the Li family, and only gave us three days, if the murderer was not found in three days, he said that even if he fought for this old life, he would go to the Ministry of Rites in the capital to complain, and now this matter has become known to everyone, and the pressure on the city side is also very great, I hope that someone can persuade Li Laohan, even if he can't change his decision to go to the Ministry of Rites to file a complaint, it would be good to have a two-day grace. ”

Looking at the court officials being made sad by the people, Yu Shaobai couldn't help but sigh a little, I am afraid that this situation can only be seen in the Hongwu period in the Ming Dynasty, it stands to reason that where the people dare to threaten the court officials, but the forest is really big, there are all kinds of birds, in this case, the court officials can only be soft.

"Uh...... Shaobai, I think it's most appropriate for you to go, although I'm smart, but my mouth is not good, although your brain is not good, but your mouth is sharp, I'm not as good as you in this regard."

Hearing Yu Shaobai sigh helplessly, as soon as it came to the critical moment, he was stunned, just this sentence just now is the best embodiment of eloquence.

"Okay, you just stop the meeting, I'll go and I'll go, and don't go up to the oil pot under the mountain, are you like this?"

Wu Zichu said with a smile: "Shaobai, don't mess with Li Laohan, he participated in the anti-Yuan team when he was young, and accidentally injured his head, sometimes it will become abnormal, if he is angry and beats you, remember to run, don't be like a madman." ”

Hearing this, Yu Shaobai was stunned, why was this matter not mentioned in the record, his temperamental personality was temperamental, and he had a little mental problem, no wonder Wang Yizheng was reluctant to go, seeing the two of them looking at him, he had no choice but to jump out of the carriage and walk towards Li Laohan's house.

Knock knock~

The door opened, and a white-haired old man walked out, looked up and down, and asked, "Young man, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

Yu Shaobai arched his hand and said softly: "Old man, just now a Taoist priest who claims to be the master of Yunfeng Guan Guan gave me a piece of talisman paper and asked me to stick it on the beam of the main hall of your house, so as to suppress the resentment that rushed to the sky." ”

Hearing Yu Shaobai's words, the old man was slightly stunned, "Young man, is that Taoist priest you talking about an eight-foot figure, with a white jade face ......" He began to describe the Yunfeng Guan Master in his memory.

Where did Yu Shaobai see the Yunfeng Guan Lord, and seeing that he said it in such detail, he just nodded and replied: "It is that Taoist priest, exactly the same as the old man's description."

Hearing this, the expression on Li Laohan's face stretched a little, "Since the master asked you to come, then please come in." ”

Yu Shaobai walked in with the old man with a smile on his face, and saw the Sanqing statue placed in the hall, the transcript was true, this Li Laohan was indeed a Taoist believer.

Yu Shaobai took out the ghost drawing talisman from his arms, which he prepared before leaving the city, and wanted to give it to Wu Zichu and let him behave well in front of Wang Tuiguan, who knew that these two people were unwilling to enter the Li family at all.

"Old man, this is the talisman paper that the master asked me to send, he said that you are a devout believer, you should not be wronged, as long as you can sincerely bow down a hundred times, the Sanqing Patriarch will give instructions."

"Is that really what the Guru said?" Li Laohan said with a happy face.

Yu Shaobai nodded, and saw Li Laohan kneeling on the futon, bowing to the Sanqing statue, and it was not until the hundredth stroke that he stepped forward and took off the incense candle next to the Sanqing statue, "Old man, your piety should have been conveyed, next, open your eyes wide." ”

After that, he baked the rune paper on the incense candle, and soon two lines of small characters slowly appeared on the rune paper, and Li Laohan, who saw it, was surprised, and shouted Sanqing Manifestation.

"Five daughters and one son, with a bumpy fate. God is pitiful, and the magistrate is dispatched. Don't worry, the blue sky is here. During the five-day period, the real culprit appeared. ”

Li Laohan read out the two lines of small characters softly and murmured: "Five-day period......"

Yu Shaobai echoed and said: "It seems that Sanqing has insight into everything, and after five days, this case will definitely be solved." Hearing this, Li Laohan nodded, and kept bowing to Sanqing, and Yu Shaobai saw that he had changed the three-day period to the five-day period, so he said goodbye to Li Laohan and left the Li family's house.

"Shaobai, how's that? Have you ever been beaten? As soon as he came to the carriage, Wu Zichu jumped down and came to him with a smile, looking gloating.

Yu Shaobai saw Wang Yizheng also come out, and said to him: "Li Laohan has changed his words, and the three-day grace period is five days. ”

Hearing this, the two of them looked like they were ghosts, and Wang Yizheng asked: "Yu Shaobai, this is true, but Mo Yan is playing with his own officials." ”

"What the adults said, how dare I, what I just said is true, if you don't believe it, you can send an official to probe his tone to see if Li Laohan is as I said."

Wang Yizheng saw his serious appearance, thinking that there should be no fake, and said curiously: "This official is very curious, what method did you use to get that Li Laohan to agree." ”

"It's just a little trick in the rivers and lakes, it's not worth mentioning, it's just that although the time is over, this case still has to be solved, and the longer it drags on, the more difficult it will be to end the case." Yu Shaobai is not modest, the method he uses is a trick in the rivers and lakes, but the difference is that he uses milk on the rune paper, and writes two lines of words with milk on the rune paper in advance, and once it is roasted by the fire, the words will appear. This method is similar to the method used by the deceitful stick on the rivers and lakes, the purpose is to make others believe it, the facts have proved that Li Laohan believed it, and he was convinced, speaking of which, Yu Shaobai still felt sorry in his heart, deception was a helpless move, and he would try his best to find out the whole story.
