A small servant who entered Shangshanguan sent a message to Zhu Fu, saying that the second housekeeper Wang Dake was waiting for him in the small flower hall in the mansion. originally expected that Lin Zhengbei would come to him today under the banner of discussing the Tao, but he didn't want it to be Wang Dake. didn't ask much, and it was clear that Zhu Fu, who couldn't ask the other party for a reason, followed the guidance of the little guy in front of him, and was able to arrive at the small flower hall by the best path.

"You're here. Something's wrong, there's something big. Wang Dake, who seemed to be a little flustered and at a loss, was straightforward when he saw Zhu Fu who walked in through the door.

Zhu Fu, who was confused by him, was very calm and said calmly: "What's wrong?" It actually made you, the second housekeeper of the Lin Mansion with all hands and eyes, restless. ”

"I'm scared to death, and you're still joking. You should remember that a number of corpses were exhumed from the courtyard outside the city that day. Early this morning, a man came to the Lin Mansion and shouted that he wanted to see me, saying that we had poisoned his family of four while he was not at home. If you want him not to go to the yamen to report to the official, you have to ask the government to take out 40,000 taels of silver for personal gain. As soon as I heard him say this, I knew that it was not only a frame-up, but also a lion's open mouth to blackmail. So, I didn't talk nonsense with the man, and directly ordered the family in the house to beat him out with a stick. I thought this was the end of the story. Who would have thought that he would really go to the county yamen to file a complaint. Now, one of the yamen is waiting outside the palace with four servants. "Wang Dake, who knew that his master would not come forward in person, had to bear this trumped-up charge first, and then went to the county yamen to slowly talk to the county master and understand.

"You didn't kill people, and you didn't hire murderers to do it, go to the county government and go to the county office, what's so terrible. I'll walk with you. Even if the entrance of the yamen is open to the south, don't come in without power or power. Then we are also powerful to go in. What's more, on that day, in addition to me, there was also your personal servant, and nine farmers hired from the neighborhood could stand up as witnesses. I think that the county master is not a foolish person, and after a simple first trial, I can tell that person must be a splasher. I don't know who he heard it from, and the purpose of this is nothing more than to blackmail some money from the government. I understood that he wanted to accompany Zhu Fu, who was a witness, and it was not easy to shirk it, so he pushed the boat down the river.

"In my opinion, I'm afraid it's not as simple as you say. Generally, you have to be skinny, and there will be no blackmail, so you will go to the government to complain about the bear-hearted leopard gall. Wang Dake, who relied on his decades of life experience, was so afraid that his master didn't tell him, and quietly sent someone to bury those bones in the back garden of the other courtyard. If it was really the East Window incident, he would naturally put this black pot on his back, after all, he was in charge of it from beginning to end, and it was difficult to explain it clearly.

"It's useless for us to talk more here, it's better to go to the county yamen to have a look." Zhu Fu, who was always impatient to go through that experience, was interested in wanting to see what the Ming Dynasty county government would look like if he had never seen it? Is it like in a costume TV series? Even if something really happened, it had nothing to do with him, after all, he was just a Taoist priest invited by Wang Dake to exorcise ghosts on behalf of the Lin family.

Wang Dake, who can only be like this now, nodded his head and walked towards the door of the small flower hall. Zhu Fu, who walked out with him, did not have any mental pressure, and was very relaxed. When the two came to the gate of the mansion, they saw five officials from the Yamen of Daxing County who came to get people.

"Second steward, I am also acting on orders, and I hope you have a lot of Haihan if you have offended." There is no intention to give Wang Dake the fast catch of shackles and chains like ordinary people, and he is not prepared to carry out unspoken rules in this aspect to ask the other party to pay any lock-up fees, shackle fees, lock fees, and shackle fees. The reason why he will open up on the Internet is that on the one hand, he has more or less personal relations with the other party, and on the other hand, he is also very jealous of the Lin family's wealth, after all, he is involved. What's more, the whole matter has not been thoroughly investigated, so it is convenient for you to be with others, and it is also convenient for you in the future.

"Thank you. I also bother you to let this Taoist chief go with him to the county yamen, so that he can testify for me. Wang Dake, who clenched his fists with both hands and arched his hand outward, was under huge physical and mental pressure because he was afraid that the matter would be true, and he would become an outcast of the master because of this. Up to now, the little guy he had sent to explain to the master had no news, so he had no bottom in his heart, and he had to plan more for his own life.

For this reason, the arrester who had no objection walked in the front and led him back to the county office. Before he arrived at the county office, Zhu Fu, who had more or less a little expectation, walked to take a look, and it was just like that. He was directly able to enter the inside, and after waiting for a cup of tea, the county's eldest lord Qian Mingzheng was promoted to ask about the case.

Zhu Fu, who was neither a defendant nor a plaintiff, was waiting under the lobby when he heard the county magistrate under the mirror shouting "bring a witness", so he was led directly to the lobby by an errand officer of the yamen. Relying on his identity as a Taoist priest, he did not kneel, and he was treated as a showman, and he really owe it to Emperor Jiajing, who was obsessed with cultivation. I know very well that it is quite difficult for him to kneel directly, and I am afraid that he will be beaten to his knees directly by the servants in the hall.

"The defendant Wang Dake said that you are a Taoist priest, not only can you exorcise ghosts, but also can help people. He told the official that as long as you help the dead soul, you can put the dead soul on the body, explaining the cause and effect of one of the qiē. The reason why Qian Mingzheng, who treated Zhu Fu in this way, was that on the one hand, it was nothing more than to cater to the wishes of the emperor, and on the other hand, he also knew that even if the corpse was excavated from the new grave and verified by the people, it would be a time-consuming and laborious tricky case.

What's more, it also involves the largest local Haoqiang Lin family, which is even more troublesome. Don't come to one at that time, there is no progress in the case, and you will lose your official position, but it is not worth it. First of all, in order to protect himself, so as not to offend the Lin family, and he didn't think about being a clean official, he had to avenge the people, although he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but he thought that Zhu Fu, who was a Taoist, would act in a play, and there would be a step to go down, so as to fool around, and the knife cut the tofu on both sides of the light passed.

And after listening to it, Zhu Fu scolded Wang Da in his heart, but he was a turtle grandson. Nima, she never said that she would help her. This turtle grandson actually pulled himself directly into the water. He thought about it, if he couldn't give a reasonable explanation and explanation to the eldest man sitting in the hall, I was afraid that the other party would not be so polite to him. After all, the Taoist priest is a guest, and the liar is a prisoner.
