"He family, something happened!"

Ma Yuanju's face was gloomy and extremely ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "Half an hour ago, He Kun committed suicide by hanging himself from a beam at home!" ”

What the?

Guo Ye, who was already ominous, suddenly heard such a stormy news, and his body involuntarily leaned back, leaning against the fence by the corridor as if he was tired.

He Kun, hanging beam suicide?

Isn't it just hanging yourself?

Guo Ye didn't believe that He Kun would commit suicide, he knew very well in his heart that He Kun's importance was a hundred times heavier than a little Mao like Qin Wei.

Immediately, he still grabbed Ma Yuanju's arm without giving up, and verified again: "He Kun is really dead?" ”

Guo Ye even doubted in his heart whether He Kun was cheating on death, or Li Dai Tao stiffened, so as to escape the punishment of the law.

Ma Yuanju seemed to see through what Guo Ye was thinking, and nodded affirmatively and said: "It is indeed dead, and after the autopsy of the Yamen, the deceased is indeed dying, and there is no trace of his killing." Besides, a figure like He Kun, who has a head and a face in Longxi County, can't cheat death at all, or Li Daitao is stiff and foolish, because that face can't be faked. ”

Speaking of this, Ma Yuanju also poked his head and whispered to Guo Ye: "He Kun's body was parked in the yamen coroner's room before, this official and He Kun have met, and this official has secretly gone to see it, and there is no doubt that He Kun himself is indeed He Kun himself." ”

Ma Yuanju is honest and upright in his bones, and his style of acting is a bit debauched and frivolous, but Guo Ye still trusts him unconditionally.

Moreover, the He family has always been a big tumor that Ma Yuanju wants to eradicate, and Guo Ye will not believe it if he is killed, and even Ma Yuanju has been bought by the He family.

Then there is only one conclusion, and that is He Kun, who is really dead!

the arson case of the Baiji Pharmacy and the culprit of the massacre in Daze Village, He Kun;

He Kun, who hid in Longxi County, sold illicit salt for several years, and made huge profits;

He's dead!

Just like that, the dust returned to dust, and the earth returned to the earth.

Guo Ye sighed lightly: "He Kun, you shouldn't die like this, Master Ma." ”

Ma Yuanju knew what Guo Ye meant when he said this, and he thought the same.

He Kun really shouldn't have died like this, and his death like this means that the follow-up of He Kun and Qin Wei's case will come to an end.

Not to mention Ma Yuanju and Guo Ye, even relevant insiders can see that He Kun's death is nothing more than an attempt to save the entire He family.

No matter how much Qin Wei testifies against him in the court tomorrow, no matter how ironclad the confession and account books are, the spearhead is pointed at He Kun, but it will be to no avail.

Because He Kun, as the party concerned, is already dead.

If there is no proof of death, what is the use of fart?

Ma Yuanju looked at Guo Ye who was a little depressed, and said with relief: "Guo Ye, it's the negligence of the official, I still underestimate the ruthlessness of the second child of the He family." He Kun's death must have something to do with his return home. ”

The implication must be that He Xun used some method to persuade his own brother He Kun to commit suicide in fear of sin, and not to implicate the entire He family.

Guo Ye was also slightly stunned when he heard it, the second eldest of the He family, the second master of the He family-He Xun?

Guo Ye glanced at Ma Yuanju and snorted a little angrily: "Sure enough, there is no good thing in this world, and the conscience is very bad!" ”

After speaking, he turned around angrily and returned to the soap class room, leaving Ma Yuanju outside alone.

Ma Yuanju listened to Guo Ye's angry words, and he didn't take it to heart, he could understand Guo Ye's bad mood at this time.

Guo Ye in this matter is like a young man who has just learned to hunt, and when he saw a colorful tiger in the distance, he was looking at him with fierce eyes, and hurriedly bent his bow and shot arrows.

When you have to shoot the big tiger all over the body with holes and dead eyes, run over and take a look, you are paralyzed, this tiger turned out to be a specimen, and it is not alive at all.

So how the hell you have to hold your breath.

Ma Yuanju then shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Guo Ye, you are aggrieved, and this official is more aggrieved than you." That's it, as soon as He Kun dies, the county commander will surely be thunderous and angry, although there is nothing to do with the He family, but the water bandits entrenched in the Minjiang River must have nothing to hide. Since then, the sale of illicit salt near Longxi County has definitely stopped, which is a good thing for the court and the people. ”

As he spoke, he also left the outside of the soap class room and left slowly.

Halfway through, suddenly someone chased after him and shouted to stop, Ma Yuan took a look, it turned out to be Zhu Pengchun from the soap class.

I saw Zhu Pengchun running up with a chirp, taking out an account book from his arms and offering it with both hands, and said, "Lord Gongcao, this is the detailed account book of He Kun, Qin Wei and others who have sold illicit salt for many years, and Brother Guo asked the small one to be handed over to you." ”

When Ma Yuanju saw it, he was overjoyed, nodded and put the account book into his sleeve, and said in his heart, with this thing, this case is stable and stable.

Then Ma Yuanju turned his head and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard Zhu Pengchun shouting behind him: "Master Gongcao, Brother Guo asked Lao Zhu to ask you, what you promised him before, can you not go back." ”

After hearing this, Ma Yuanju smiled bitterly in his heart, Guo Ye, this little servant, is really a master who refuses to suffer in vain.

Then he walked to himself without looking back and said in a deep voice: "Let him rest assured, Ma has promised someone else something, how can he ever regret it." ”

In a short time, the person had disappeared into the remote corridor on the right, and disappeared without a trace.

Leaving Zhu Pengchun alone to rub his hands together and smirk, he muttered: "In the future, there will be Pang Bantou in the soap class, and Brother Guo in the fishing class, and the spring of our soap class brothers will come." Brother Guo is right, a lot of good days are ahead. ”

He, Zhu Pengchun, doesn't care whether the final result of this case is very happy or not, anyway, their backer is hard today, and the business of the Zihua Pavilion must be high in sesame flowers, and the silver is scarce and can't be filled.

That's what he cares about

In the evening of the same day, the gate of the He family hung the vegetarian, the house was clothed with linen and filial piety, and the inner courtyard set up a mourning hall.

At night, not only the merchants and gentry in the city went to mourn, but even the county Cheng Wu Kui and the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao personally went to the mansion to pay tribute to He Kun.

For a while, the news of He Kun's suicide by hanging a beam at home spread far and wide, and it spread all over the city.

Gu Weiyong, the county magistrate who had already slept, was also woken up by Master Mu and came to the study with his coat on.

After listening to Master Mu's narration, Gu Weiyong didn't say a word, and sat quietly with gloomy eyebrows.

Master Mu looked at the Lord of the Ming Mansion who he followed, he was silent on weekdays, and he was even more silent in this atmosphere at this time.

He has followed Gu Weiyong for so many years, and basically he is taking care of the affairs of the yamen.

Even if a meeting of the Yamen Ninth Rank and above is held, it is he, the master, who is presiding over it, and the county commander is watching.

It's not that the county magistrate is lazy, doesn't like to be aware of the people's feelings, and doesn't like to be promoted to work.

But the county magistrate also has his own troubles!

This hardship has been hidden for so many years, even the county magistrate Wu Kui, the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao, and the Liufang adjutant have only seen the face of the county order, and rarely heard the county commander talk eloquently.

Therefore, Gu Weiyong's impression on the people in the county government is that they are silent and few words, cherishing words like gold, and they are very unfathomable.

In fact, the truth of the matter is not the case, and the hardships of the county magistrate are only known to him, the master and the wife and daughter of the county magistrate.

Alas~~

It's a pity!

In order to break this embarrassing silence, Master Mu asked softly: "My lord, once He Kun dies, there is no proof of death, it seems that this case can only end here." ”

Gu Weiyong bowed slightly, sighed, and continued to say nothing.

Master Mu pushed the tea on the corner of the table to Gu Weiyong, and then asked, "Is it still ...... tomorrow's court trial?"

"L!"

Gu Weiyong didn't wait for Master Mu to finish asking, and grabbed the conversation.

Then he glanced at Master Mu with great trust, and said in a deep voice: "Ming, tomorrow, you will ascend to the hall, you, come!" ”

Master Mu nodded to indicate that he knew, this had long been used to it, and it was not once or twice that he had been promoted to interrogate the county magistrate.

I only heard Gu Weiyong say again: "The three cases are grouped into one, one case, that is, since He Kun has died, then, until Qin Wei, the ironclad evidence is like a mountain, Qin, Qin Wei wants to die." After the case was decided, an official document was sent to the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department, fighting, striving for the end of the year, asking, asking Qin Wei! ”

The law of the Tang Dynasty stipulates that the local only has the right to interrogate, and after the case is settled, an official document must be sent to the imperial capital Chang'an, and the case will be finalized by the Dali Temple in charge of the world's criminal prison, and finally sent by the Dali Temple to the Criminal Department to make the last circle pen before it can be sent back to the local yamen.

The reason for this is to try to prevent the local yamen from covering the sky one by one, so that unjust, false and wrongly decided cases can be reduced to a minimum.

If the Longxi County Ya is the county party committee and county government in later generations, then Dali Siqing is equivalent to the Supreme People's Court, and as for the Criminal Department, it can also rely on the direction of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

After hearing Gu Weiyong's instructions, Master Mu nodded again and remembered them all.

Gu Weiyong said again: "Min, the water bandits in the Minjiang River, must be wiped out in one net, and I will order the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao to lead the Zhuang squad and be responsible for this matter." It must be given, given to Da, Daze Village, more than 300 mouths, 100 people, one to confess. ”

Master Mu said that he knew, and then asked: "My lord, as far as I know, this time I was able to solve the case so quickly, and Ma Yuan, the official of the household Cao Fang, made a great contribution, is it ......?"

"Let's wait first," Gu Weiyong suddenly interrupted Master Mu's invitation for Ma Yuanju's reward for merit, and said comfortably to Master Mu, "Wu Kuihe, and Gu Dezhao, go to He's house tonight to offer condolences, look, it seems to be a snake and a rat, channeling, running to one, a nest." This official, this time I can see clearly, who is a person, who, who is a ghost. This, at this time, to promote Ma Yuanju, first slowly, the official has his own determination and plan in his heart. ”

Since the county magistrate said so, it is impossible for Master Mu to say anything else, it seems that in the near future, there will definitely be a big change in the personnel of the county government!

Hehe, Wu Kui, Gu Dezhao These people really think that their master is a mud bodhisattva, and they don't hear anything outside the window without going out, but they don't know that Gu Xianling is the one who knows all about the city without going out.

Seeing that it was not early, Master Mu got up and said goodbye, saying that he would go back and prepare for tomorrow's ascension.

Gu Weiyong nodded and did not leave anyone.

Just as Master Mu opened the door and was about to go out, Gu Weiyong suddenly stopped Master Mu and said, "Wait, wait, Ma Yuanju can not be promoted first, but I heard you say that the soap class is also a merit this time, and the credit is not small, and you can be rewarded." ”

Master Mu's leg was slowly put down, and he said in his heart, Gu County Ling knew that the cooperation between the soap class and Ma Yuanju this time must have angered the county lieutenant Gu Dezhao, but he still said that he would be rewarded.

It seems that this is to give a light slap to the face of the county lieutenant Gu by rewarding the soap class.

Hehe, it's okay, the old man didn't like this Gu Dezhao in the first place, that guy was a Wang Ba calf who only knew how to eat inside and didn't know how to spit out.

Then he turned around and bowed respectfully, saying yes.

Only then did he step out of the door and walk a little way out of the back hall of the yamen.

Walking to the front yard of the yamen, looking at the bright lights in the soap class room in the right side courtyard, I couldn't help but think of the interesting little official who was introduced by Ma Yuanju in Yipinlou that day.

couldn't help but have a smile on the corner of his mouth, it was really cheap for this little servant surnamed Guo.
