"Xianggong, people's words are terrible, and they are ruined, I am afraid that even if this Liu family is innocent, she has become a murderer of her husband through the mouth of the people."

Lei Ting saw Li Yuntian's brows frowning slightly, knowing that he was dissatisfied with the rumors but helpless, so he smiled and said, "But the Liu family is lucky to meet Xianggong this time, if she is innocent, Xianggong will definitely be able to give her justice." ”

"People are not saints, and there are some things that cannot be done fairly." Li Yuntian couldn't help laughing when he heard this, he knew that Lei Ting was comforting himself, and then looked at Li Zixi, "How did Bai Dezhang, the magistrate of Lin'an County, and the post-mortem examiner do well?" ”

Lin Xin, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but show a look of surprise on her face when she heard this, she knew that Li Yuntian's micro-service was coming to Lin'an County this time for Liu Qing and Liu's case, but she never expected that Li Yuntian would even suspect the magistrate and the prefect of Lin'an County.

In fact, Liu Qing and Liu's case has stumbled and tossed to this day, Li Yuntian will not believe any party in the case lightly, in order to find clues to solve the case, he has to sort out all the people involved, maybe he will find some important clues.

"Bai Dezhang originally served as the magistrate of Nanzhili, but he was transferred here three years ago, and his reputation is good." Li Zixi pondered for a while, and said to Li Yuntian, "However, Zhang Gu, the chief secretary of the county government of Lin'an County, had a gap with Liu Qing before, and was originally the secretary of the county government house in Lin'an County, but he was dismissed from his post ten years ago because of a tax dispute, and for some reason he was transferred back to Lin'an County a few years ago and took the position of chief bookkeeper. ”

"Oh?" Li Yuntian couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard this, such an official who was dismissed by mistake should not be promoted again and become an official, although he was only a minor official of the ninth grade, but he had undoubtedly experienced a huge leap from an official to an official.

"What is the entanglement between Zhang Gu and Liu Qing?" After pondering for a while, Li Yuntian looked up at Liu Qing, this is a big discovery, and it is impossible to know this in the official document.

"Lord, as far as the lowly officials know, when Liu Qing served as the household secretary, he not only held the power to pay taxes but also took into account the taxation duties of the merchants, and I heard from the people that the reputation was not very good, and the taxes were heavy."

Li Zixi bowed slightly to Li Yuntian when he heard this, and said what he had heard, "About ten years ago, Lin'an County needed to go to Hangzhou to purchase a batch of stones to repair roads, and needed to send people to Hangzhou City for a trip, so Liu Qing, who had a reputation for talent at that time, volunteered to go, and obtained a tax-free official document in Hangzhou. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Li Yuntian's face couldn't help but show a look of surprise, and subconsciously thought that this matter was not as simple as Li Zixi said, Zhang Gu was an experienced official, and he would definitely not be so arrogant that he would even dare to tear up the tax-free documents of the government, so there must be something hidden here.

If Li Yuntian didn't guess wrong, Zhang Gu was yin by Liu Qing nine times out of ten, and ended up resigning, and ate thirty boards in vain, I'm afraid this is also the reason why Zhang Gu came back to Lin'an County again, wanting to find Liu Qing for revenge.

"How did Liu Qing get the tax-free documents from the government?" After Li Yuntian frowned, he asked Li Zixi.

"I heard that the Tongzhi of Hangzhou Mansion at that time was Liu Qing's teacher." Li Zixi thought for a moment and replied in a deep voice, "The specific situation is still being verified. ”

I see! Li Yuntian had a thoughtful look on his face when he heard this, the tax-free documents of the government are not so easy to obtain, since Liu Qing can get them and make Zhang Gu lose his position because of this, it will definitely not be simple.

"What's so unusual about that work?" Although he felt that Zhang Gu had a lot of doubts about losing his position, Li Yuntian didn't care about this matter now, and then asked.

"There is nothing abnormal about the work, it is the same as usual, but perhaps because it involves the case of Liu Qing and Liu, he is silent on weekdays, and he is also extremely wary of outsiders." Li Zixi said to Li Yuntian in an orderly manner, "I specially checked it, and his financial situation has not changed much. ”

It was only at this time that Lin Xin realized why Li Yuntian suspected Bai Dezhang and Qi Zuo, and the conclusion that Wang Butcher was poisoned was made by Bai Zuo, and Bai Dezhang was at the scene at that time, and the two of them were the people who knew the case best, so they naturally had to focus on the investigation.

"Acting is the key to this case, and he must be strictly monitored, and no clues can be missed." Li Yuntian hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then instructed Li Zixi in a deep voice, "Although the tone of the pretentious is tight, but his family is not necessarily, find a way to trap them." ”

Although Li Yuntian does not like to implicate his family when handling the case, if the family of the criminal has been involved in the case, then he can only do business.

"Humble duty understands!" Li Zixi knew what Li Yuntian meant, so he solemnly bowed to Li Yuntian and promised that he would not harass his family too much, but would take a tactful approach to obtain information.

"Sir, madam, the kitchen has prepared the food, do you want to serve it?" At this time, there was a knock on the door, and a shopkeeper came in, nodding and saying to Li Yuntian and Lei Ting, with a bright smile on his face.

Li Yuntian and Lei Ting just ordered the signature dishes in the store, and the prices were very expensive, so the guys in the restaurant naturally wanted to entertain these two gods of wealth, and the reward would definitely not be less when the time came.

"Let's serve." Li Yuntian nodded to Lin Xin on the side when he heard this, and Lin Xin said to the shopkeeper in a coquettish voice.

The shopkeeper couldn't help but glance at Lin Xin, and then bowed down, he felt that Lin Xin's accent was very special, and he couldn't tell where Lin Xin was for a while.

This shopkeeper naturally didn't know that Lin Xin was born in the Ryukyu country, and the Ming dialect he spoke had a Ryukyu local accent, and he didn't even know where Ryukyu was, so he naturally didn't know the Ryukyu dialect.

With the departure of the shopkeeper, a series of guys with trays soon came in, and the dishes ordered by Li Yuntian and Lei Ting were placed on the table like a marquee, which was full of color, flavor, and mouthwater.

A guy wanted to stay and serve, but was sent away after Lin Xin gave him a small piece of broken silver, Li Yuntian beckoned Lin Xin, Li Zixi and two other maids to sit down and eat together, although he was the prince, he was still very kind to his subordinates on weekdays.

As for the accompanying guards, they ate in the room opposite the door, and although the dishes they ordered were a grade lower than Li Yuntian's, they were also extremely rich.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Lin Xin got up and led a maid out and went to the backyard of the restaurant to go to the toilet.

"Oh no, young master, young lady, Miss Lin was arrested." Not long after, just as Li Yuntian and Li Zixi were chatting, the maid who had left with Lin Xin ran in in a panic and said to Li Yuntian and Lei Ting with an anxious expression.

Because Li Yuntian had a private visit to Weifu this time, people called him "Young Master" and Lei Ting "Young Lady".

"What's going on?" Li Yuntian's brows suddenly frowned when he heard this, he didn't expect Lin Xin to have an accident after such a while.

"Young master, when the slave maid and Miss Lin came back, she met a drunken son in the courtyard, and asked Miss Lin to be her concubine, and asked her servants to forcibly take Miss Lin away." The maid ran out of breath and hurriedly told Li Yuntian about the matter.

"You go, bring Lin Xin back, if the other party is not honest, you can repair it!" When Li Yuntian heard this, a trace of anger suddenly appeared on his face, Lang Lang Qiankun, the blue sky and the white sun, someone dared to rob the people's daughter in public, it was really hateful, so he groaned for a while, and said to Li Zixi quietly.

Li Yuntian was not worried about Lin Xin's safety, because the people who dared to rob people in public must be among the powerful people in Lin'an County, as long as they inquired about the people in the restaurant, they could know where Lin Xin was taken.

"Young master, taking Miss Lin away is the only son of Bai Dezhang, the magistrate of Lin'an County, and took Miss Lin to a house in the county seat." Immediately, a guard came in, and the public judge said to Li Yuntian in a deep voice.

"Idiot?" Li Yuntian was slightly stunned at first when he heard this, because the guard had some local accents, so he listened to Bai Zhi as an idiot, and then his face couldn't help but be gloomy:

Bai Dezhang, as the parent official of Lin'an County, actually connived at Incandescent so much, it seems that Incandescent usually does a lot of evil in Lin'an County, otherwise he would not dare to blatantly snatch Lin Xin, does he think that no one in Lin'an County can cure him?

Then, Li Yuntian's brows furrowed, and he waved his hand to the guard who reported the news to come over, and whispered a few words in his ear, and the guard left in a hurry.

"Xianggong, you're going to make Incandescent suffer a little." Lei Ting sat next to Li Yuntian and heard Li Yuntian's words to the guard, so she said with a smile.

"This kid must bully men and women on weekdays, and do a lot of evil, but today he actually provoked Xianggong's head, Xianggong wants to repair him well, and vent evil anger to those who have been bullied by him!" Li Yuntian smiled at Lei Ting a little helplessly, with his status, he definitely couldn't deal with Incandescent, but since Incandescent dared to beat the idea of the people around him, he naturally had to teach a lesson.

In fact, if Li Yuntian hadn't come to Lin'an County this time to investigate a case, he would have directly arrested Incandescent and thrown him into the prison of the Zhejiang Provincial Prosecutor's Office, so that Incandescent could "enjoy" himself in the prison, and I believe that the jailer would definitely "take special care" of Incandescent.

When Li Yuntian and Lei Ting left the restaurant to rest at the inn where they stayed after eating, a shocking news suddenly came from Lin'an City, a group of masked robbers broke into the house of Bai Dezhang, the only son of Bai Dezhang, the magistrate of Lin'an County, with a knife, and kidnapped Bai Cang after knocking over a dozen famous people in the courtyard, leaving a letter for the Bai family to prepare 10,000 taels of silver to ransom people, otherwise they would be ready to tear up the ticket.

For this explosive news, the people on the street all applauded, and their faces were filled with happy smiles, so it seems that incandescent must be no less evil on weekdays, otherwise it would not have made the people have this reaction.

Li Yuntian glanced at the elated people, shook his head with a wry smile and got into the carriage, no matter what Bai Dezhang's government affairs were, but his discipline of the incandescent was obviously unsuccessful, so that the incandescent attracted so much public anger.
