Yang Shouwen was silent.

He didn't know what to say about it, but at the same time he was prepared for such a result, and he was not shocked.

Lu Yongcheng has been the chief bookkeeper in Changping for 20 years!

In the past 20 years, how many great changes have taken place in the court, and how many people have lost their lives as a result? Although Changping is located in the border wilderness, the internal struggle is even more tragic. Different from the great changes in the court, although the dispute between the court and the court is also very tragic, everyone will have more or less reservations due to their identity and status, at least on the surface, it will appear calm.

However, in the locality, especially at the county level, the struggle for power has always been a sword and sword, and everyone fights bare-chested. In terms of the means of struggle, there are no tricks in the local court, but they are more direct and more ferocious.

Lu Yongcheng became the chief bookkeeper of Changping at the age of twenty-eight, and in the past 20 years, more than a dozen Changping county orders have been changed back and forth, and the county seat has also changed seven or eight, but only Lu Yongcheng is still firmly sitting in the position of the chief bookkeeper, and no one can shake it.

Even Yang Chenglie took more than ten years to consolidate the power of the county lieutenant.

On the surface, he and Lu Yongcheng are one and the same, and they do not interfere with each other. But in fact, there will be no less fighting between the two.

Such a person who is good at fighting and fighting, don't fantasize about him as a little lamb who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world. This kind of person is absolutely terrible. Therefore, when Yang Shouwen heard the news of the deaths of Koubin and Lu Qing, he did not show any strange expression, and even felt that this kind of thing happened as a matter of course.

Gently exhaling a breath of turbidity, Yang Shouwen smiled.

"Daddy, isn't this result normal? Gai Jiayun spat out these two names to me that day, and I knew ......"

"Fucking old thief."

Yang Chenglie suddenly scolded: "Son, why can't you make me feel satisfied? ”

The implication is to say: Why are you hanging so much? Why not show a look of shock and let me satisfy my vanity?

When Yang Shouwen heard this, he immediately opened his mouth, his eyes widened, and he made a look of shock.

"Corbin and Lu Qing are dead?"

"Get out of here!"

Yang Chenglie scolded with a smile, picked up the wine bowl and took a big sip.

Yang Rui couldn't help but laugh out loud on the side, and he said softly: "On the way, I also made a bet with Daddy, saying that the eldest brother would be very surprised." Daddy says you won't be surprised...... As a result, it seems that Daddy still understands the eldest brother. ”

When Yang Rui came to the mountain today, his mood didn't look normal.

As soon as these words came out, Yang Shouwen immediately felt a strong sense of loss.

Yang Chenglie glanced at Yang Rui and ignored it.

He filled another bowl of wine and said softly: "I have been the captain of Taiping County for ten years, I thought it was such a windless and waveless past, but I didn't expect it...... This year's situation is even more sinister and unpredictable than when Li Qianzhong's troops entered Youzhou two years ago. Especially these murders, they are even more weird, and I always feel uneasy in my heart. ”

"What does the county say?"

From Yang Chenglie's words, Yang Shouwen heard anxiety.

Yang Chenglie said: "The meaning of the county is that it is just like that...... The deaths of Corbin and Lu Qing were obviously an accident. ”

"How could it be an accident?"

Yang Rui finally couldn't help it, and said excitedly: "Kou Bin was obviously murdered, and that Lu Qing ...... How is it possible to say that he fell and drowned after drinking? I inquired, Lu Qing is not weak, and he has a lot of alcohol, how can it be drowned? ”

"It's not drowning, who is the murderer?"

"It's clearly Lu Yongcheng......"

"Proof!" Yang Chenglie tapped his fingers on the tabletop and said in a deep voice: "According to the law of Zaichu, you are slandering the officials, and according to the law, you should be assigned to the army." ”

"I ......"

Yang Shouwen pressed Yang Rui and gently patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down.

The first law, that is, according to the 11th year of Zhenguan promulgated the "Zhenguan Law" version of the revised version. In later generations, this "Tang Law Shu Yi" compiled by the eldest grandson Wuji has undergone three additions and changes since Zhenguan, which is now the first law.

Yang Chenglie also seemed to be angry, glared at Yang Rui and said: "Lu Yongcheng is the master of the ninth grade, you Laozi and I are half a level lower than him in terms of grade." He said that Lu Qing was drowned, how can I trouble him without evidence? He is my superior, and if I want to investigate this case, I will not be able to hide from his eyes at all, let alone find out any results.

If the county is willing to investigate this case, I can also have a reason.

But now, the county is unwilling to meddle in this matter, and wants to settle the matter, how do you want me, the county lieutenant, to do it? ”

Yang Chenglie laughed self-deprecatingly when he said this.

"County lieutenant, county lieutenant...... But ten years of Taiping County Lieutenant, do you really think that you and I can cover the sky with one hand? ”

Yang Rui lowered his head and did not speak again.

But Yang Shouwen could see from his eyes that there was a strong unwillingness.

This kind of unwillingness, Yang Shouwen is very familiar with.

In his previous life, when he first entered the workplace, he also encountered such a situation, and he was also unwilling. He later pursued it obstinately, but in the end he was paralyzed in bed for nearly ten years. Although the case was solved in the end, the criminal was finally punished. But who remembers that ten years ago, there was a young man who died and gave his best life for this?

On the sickbed, Yang Shouwen read a lot of books and thought about it for many years.

He finally figured out a sentence: people are doing it, the sky is watching, it's not that they don't report it, the time has not come!

Just to understand the true meaning of this sentence, he ......

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little dignified, Yang Shouwen smiled: "Okay, okay, this matter is over, let's not talk about it." ”

"Well, don't say it, don't say it!"

The anger on Yang Chengyeol's face disappeared and was replaced by a smiling face.

Yang Shouwen accompanied him to eat wine for a while, and when he saw Yang Chenglie showing fatigue, he said goodbye and walked out of the meditation room.

Yang Rui followed behind him, silent.

When the two came to the door of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, they saw the moonlight sprinkled on the square, revealing a bit of coldness.

During the day, it rained, and the air in the mountains was exceptionally fresh.

It's just that after that light rain, the temperature dropped a lot, so that a gust of wind blew, and Yang Rui shivered.

Outside the door of the meditation room, Bodhi took Wukong to lie on the porch.

In the room, the Yang family was still picking up, busy, going in and out.

Qingnu's spirit was not very good, so tonight, he followed the Song family to rest early.

Only the young lady was left sitting alone next to the well, scrubbing her clothes vigorously, and when she saw Yang Shouwen and Yang Rui, she didn't say hello.

When Yang Chenglie is not there, the young lady will be very casual.

But when Yang Chenglie is here, she will pay attention to proportion.

The little girl is not very old, but she has a good eye and knows when to be lively and when to be silent.

"Erlang, why don't you speak?"

Yang Rui raised his head, as if he had the courage to say, "Big brother, if I ask Daddy to resign, you should be the arranger." ”

"Me?" Yang Shouwen's head shook like a rattle.

"I don't want to go to the yamen to suffer...... Look at me, how happy I am now! If you are carefree, why bother to practice in the yamen? ”

"But ......" Yang Rui looked very distressed and scratched his head, making his hair even more messy. He whispered, "But I really think I'm so stupid!" I was played around by Gai Jiayun, but I thought he was afraid of me; Today I went to the scene and saw Lu Qing's body. Even a stupid person like me can see that Lu Qing is by no means drowning, but Daddy can drown one by one, talking and laughing with Lu Yongcheng, as if he didn't see anything.

Big brother, I'm really confused!

I used to think I was smart, and even before my big brother came to his senses, I still thought so.

But ......"

As he spoke, Yang Rui squatted on the ground, holding his head in his hands.

Yang Shouwen can understand his mood at the moment, which is a kind of self-righteous 'everyone is drunk and I am sober'.

To some extent, Yang Rui is still a teenager with a sense of justice.

It's just that he doesn't quite understand what it means to be patient.

patted Yang Rui on the shoulder, and Yang Shouwen sat down beside him.

"Erlang, how beautiful do you think this moonlight is? I loved it, but I couldn't catch it; You close your eyes and feel the wind, how soft, but I can't see it; You smell the flowers, how wonderful, but I can't save them. ”

"Big brother, what are you talking about?"

Yang Rui was confused by Yang Shouwen's words, and turned his head to look at him in amazement.

Yang Shouwen smiled, "I'm talking nonsense." ”
