Chapter Twenty-Nine: Counterfeit County Orders

Luoyang Post House, Li Canghai covered his veil and walked in with Di Qing.

A group of officials in Zhengyang County were lazily drinking to pass the time.

Li Canghai explained his intention to Yicheng, and asked Yicheng to invite the Zhengyang County Commander to come and talk about it, he had the order of Luoyang Mansion Yin in his hand, and Yicheng did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to the back hall to find someone.

A moment later, a young man in an official uniform walked in.

"Lord Liang, the lower officials came here to pay taxes and silver, why did your lord put us under house arrest here?" The man walked to the front of the hall and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Li Canghai turned around and looked the person in front of him up and down.

This person is long and jade, dignified in appearance, and quite upright.

"Your Excellency is the Zhengyang County Commander?" Li Canghai asked.

The man also looked at him, and suddenly frowned: "You are not Lord Liang Xiuliang, who are you?"

Li Canghai smiled faintly and clapped his hands: "Your Excellency has good eyesight, I am indeed not Lord Liang. It's Lord Liang's master, just because Lord Liang was involved in a murder case, so I was entrusted by Lord Liang to come and ask Lord Liang about something."

The man frowned and sneered, "Since you are Lord Liang's master, why don't you dare to show your true face?"

Li Canghai didn't speak, he took out the waist card and handed it to the man, the man took it in his hand and looked at it over and over again, this is indeed the waist card of Luoyang Mansion, and after confirming it, he arched his hand and said: "The lower official is rude."

Li Canghai withdrew his waist card, sat on the chair and said, "I want to ask the adult a few things, I hope the adult can answer honestly."

The man nodded: "Master, it's okay to ask."

Li Canghai pondered for a moment and asked, "I don't know when you were admitted to the Jinshi and when you took office?"

The man looked at him in surprise and said, "All the resumes of the lower officials have been submitted to the Ministry of Officials, and Luoyang Mansion should also have a record, why should the master ask many times?"

Li Canghai's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the other party seemed to be quite wary of him.

"The adult is involved in the homicide case, I naturally have to act according to the procedure, and the Luoyang Mansion file is not allowed to be accessed by the Fu Yin, I hope the adult can understand the difficulties below." Li Canghai's words are not leaky, all the official resumes are confidential, even if it is Luoyang Mansion Yin, if you want to transfer it, you have to go through the consent of the assassin.

The man was silent for a while, nodded and said: "Xiaguan is a native of Bingzhou, Xiucai in the eighteenth year of Kaiyuan, Jinshi in the twenty-first year, and was awarded the post of Zhengyang County Commander in the following year, and Xiaguan has been in office for less than a full month."

This resume is exactly the same as the memory that Li Canghai knows, and the time when this person takes office should be when he wakes up.

This is even more certain, the death of his body is definitely not the work of the bandits, and it is obvious that the person in front of him is extremely clear about his experience, which makes Li Canghai can't help but wonder if the other party has investigated him.

"Canghai, why are you asking him this? Hurry up and ask him what he took from the clan hall!" Di Qing recognized this person as the person who had been there that night, and whispered to him.

Li Canghai asked her to calm down for a while, nodded and said, "My lord, may I ask where you were the night before?"

"The night before, the officials and the officials had just entered Luoyang City with the tax money."

"Nonsense! The night before, you and the official went to the Di Mansion separately, and in the name of investigating the case, you took the jade turtle belt from the Di Mansion clan hall!" Di Qingxing's eyes widened and said coquettishly.

"What the lower official said is true, and all the officials can prove it, not to mention that I don't know that someone was killed, so how could I go to Difu in the name of investigating the case?" The man sat up from his chair and retorted.

Li Canghai calmed down the two of them, he stared at the man, and said seriously: "My lord, someone did see you enter the Difu clan hall last night, and everyone in the Difu can also testify about this, how can this be said?"

The man was stunned for a moment and sighed: "This matter, the lower official heard the post mention it, and the lower official also couldn't understand it."

Li Canghai stared at him like a torch, trying to find a flaw in his eyes, but this person was not afraid of looking at him.

"The murderer Li Er once said that he had a group of accomplices outside to pick him up, and his accomplices were the adults who entered the Di Mansion that night, and Li Er's testimony can testify to this." Li Canghai looked at him intently, paused and said, "What the adults said is completely contrary to Li Er's testimony, what is the explanation of the adults?"

Li Canghai originally thought that he would deny it, but he didn't expect him to say with a straight face: "As an official of the imperial court, how could Xia Guan go to join forces with murderers to kill people?" What's more, when Xia Guan first arrived in Luoyang City, he didn't know the murderer, how could he be his accomplice!"

"Master Li, do you really know Li Er?" Li Canghai asked in a cold voice.

"The lower officials are upright and will never do anything unscrupulous, and the lower officials don't know Li Er!" The man puffed up his chest and said with a straight face.

Li Canghai touched his nose, he sneered in his heart, if it was someone else, he was really frightened by him, but unfortunately this is 'fake Li ghost met real Li Kui'.

The atmosphere was a little strange for a while, but in the end, Di Qing broke the silence, she sneered: "The Gopher Gate is also a well-known sect in the rivers and lakes, I didn't expect to dare to do it, but I didn't dare to do it, it's just laughing." ”

"What gopher gate?" The man frowned, flicked his sleeves and said: "This official is the official of Zhengyang County, the official of the imperial court, how can the rivers and lakes be compared with this official!" ”

"Hmph, you don't want to pretend again, Li Er has already confessed all of you, your gopher door wants to steal the tomb of my Di Qing ancestor, it's not that simple!" Thinking that the gopher door wanted to steal Di Renjie's tomb, she was angry, pinched her waist and snorted angrily.

Li Canghai tapped his fingers on the handrail and said, "Lord Li, we don't talk darkly, I suspect that you have something to do with the gopher door, and I hope your lord can tell the truth." ”

"The official doesn't know what the gopher door is, and the official doesn't know their purpose, what do you want me to tell you?" The man seemed a little impatient, but his expression remained awe-inspiring.

Li Canghai's brows furrowed, and after thinking for a while, he got up and said, "I will return today's matter to Lord Liang in the next meeting, but Lord Li was involved in the murder case, and now there are still suspicions, until this case is clear, I hope that Lord Li will not leave." ”

The man looked at him in surprise, nodded and said, "The lower officials will prove their innocence here, and there is Master Lao." ”

Di Qing wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Canghai, and after saying goodbye to the man, he pulled Di Qing out of the post house.

Out of the post house, Di Qing flicked the back of his hand vigorously, and said angrily: "Li Canghai, why are you stopping me?" He wants to rob our family's tomb, why don't you want me to teach him a lesson! ”

Li Canghai was numb by the back of his hand, he grinned in pain, and said: "This person has a calm expression, and his speech is not leaky, he is by no means an ordinary person, and he must not act rashly until he finds out their true purpose." ”

"Hmph, do you want to watch them steal the graves of their ancestors? Li Canghai, you are responsible for this! Di Qing snorted and said angrily.

"Don't worry, I will definitely find out the truth and let the gopher door have nothing to hide." Li Canghai looked back at the post house, and after a little thought, he asked the guards a few words, and then left with Di Qing.
