Turning to Lord He's side, Zong Jiyuan suggested in a low voice,

"Adults and students feel that it is inevitably confusing to ask questions like this, and there is also the possibility of mutual influence. According to the students, it is better to take them back to the prefectural office, and you can ask them individually. ”

"What Ji Yuan said is very reasonable."

Lord He also nodded in agreement.

At that moment, the servants were divided into two groups, and Diao Saburo took one group and brought the three bodies back to the county government with Lord He for further examination; And Zong Jiyuan took another group, a total of four officials, and stayed in the Hu Mansion for the time being to continue to observe.

According to Zong Jiyuan's thoughts, there must be more than these things that have been discovered in this Hu mansion, and if you dig deeper, you may find any clues, so after asking the adults for instructions, they did not leave.

In this way, it was decided, He Ruichang and Diao Saburo took everyone back to the county office, and began to get busy for a while.

First of all, the official arrest document was issued to Mrs. Hu, and then Lord He asked Diao Sanlang to summon those family members to the second hall one by one for interrogation, which does not need to be elaborated on first.

Let's say that Zong Jiyuan stayed in Hu's house, and he actually made a lot of fun, of course, it was Young Master Hu and Hu Shifa.

In fact, for others, a good family and a person who will live in the official mansion is also a nervous and awkward thing anyway, but Hu Shifa doesn't care about this, anyway, as long as he can see Zong Jiyuan, he will be happy.

At this time, Young Master Hu seemed to have forgotten the fright he had just received, and followed Zong Jiyuan diligently and said,

"Master Zong, you come with the villain, and the villain will arrange a comfortable and spacious place for you."

"Okay,"

Looking at his trembling appearance, Zong Jiyuan couldn't help but smile and said,

"What about my brothers? Where are you going to put them? ”

"Huh? This ......"

Hu Shifa seemed to notice the few servants who followed, and was stunned before saying,

"The little and the little people will also make proper arrangements for a few errand officials......"

"It doesn't have to be so much trouble,"

Zong Jiyuan turned his head, looked at him, and chuckled,

"You, find a bigger suite, enough for us to live in, it doesn't need to be too good."

"How did that happen?!"

Hu Shifa was anxious when he heard this, and waved his hand again and again,

"Anyway, I won't let you, Master, be wronged...... By the way, there is a very suitable place, you can come with me! ”

Seeing that he was as ecstatic as a child finding some interesting toy, Zong Jiyuan knew that it would not be good if he refused any longer, so he waved to several servants and followed him, until he came to a courtyard that looked very quiet.

While walking, Hu Shifa introduced,

"This is my mother, by the way, my own mother, that is, my father's eldest lady lives. Since she died, no one has lived there, of course, I told the maids to come and clean it every day. It's spacious and quiet here, master, you and all the officials and lords have the right to be wronged here. ”

"How to talk about the word 'grievance',"

Looking at this delicate and elegant courtyard, Zong Jiyuan nodded, looking quite satisfied,

"This place is really a good place, thank you Young Master Hu, for bothering you."

"No, no, where,"

Hearing Zong Jiyuan praising him, Hu Shifa's face turned red with excitement,

"This is what a villain should do, Grandmaster, what else do you have to say...... By the way, do you want the villain to send a few more servants to wait? ”

"No need, I can handle anything myself, you just don't forget to have dinner brought over when the time comes, I don't want to go hungry."

Zong Jiyuan said in a joking tone.

But Hu Shifa still nodded his head very seriously,

"I will never forget this, and the villain will personally bring you dinner when the time comes!"

"I'm sorry for you."

While talking, several people walked into the main room.

The inside is indeed very spacious, and it seems that in addition to the place where the lady lives, there are many servants' rooms, and the application is also very complete. What interested Zong Jiyuan the most was that there was a separate small study room near the east side of the hall, which made her very satisfied, and she turned back to those errands and smiled,

"Brothers, the younger brother lives in this study, where do you want to live, choose your own room and make a decision."

"Oh, Master lives here...... Yes, yes! ”

Without waiting for the servants to answer, Hu Shifa first called "good" in a loud voice, and his eyes also radiated some inexplicable brilliance.

"Then gentlemen, let's have a good rest, and I'll send someone to bring clean water in a while."

Seeing him go out and leave, several of the servants returned to their usual relaxed state, laughed together, and talked nonsense,

"It seems that I have to follow my master out to handle the case, and the courtesy I receive is different from usual."

"yes, yes, how can we have the opportunity to live in such a nice house."

……

"Guys, don't be kidding,"

Zong Jiyuan also smiled and waved his hand,

"After all, there are still a lot of things in this Hu Mansion that have not been clarified, and the safety of the surroundings depends on everyone paying more attention."

"My subordinates understand."

Everyone nodded and went about their jobs.

And Zong Jiyuan returned to the small study by himself, sat in front of the table and picked up the pen, wanting to go through all the clues he had so far and from the beginning, but for some reason, his mind was occupied by the words "Bawangzhuang".

Knowing that this was because he still failed to avenge Xiaoyingzi, he was extremely unwilling in his heart, so he had to shake his head, intending to concentrate himself and put his mind back on the case in front of him, but he couldn't do it anyway, just like that, before he knew it, it was already evening.

Several servants came back one after another, and Zong Jiyuan greeted him in front of the main hall, said "hard work", and then asked,

"How? Do any people in this house behave unusually? ”

"Nope,"

One of the officers replied helplessly,

"Probably they all know that something extraordinary has happened, and they are all honest."

"That's right......"

After a little contemplation, Zong Jiyuan looked at a few of them and smiled slightly,

"Well, it seems that I can't find anything today, a few brothers will rest and rest, and dinner will probably be delivered in a while."

"Okay."

A few of them said yes and went back to their place.

Sure enough, there was not much time, and Hu Shifa really personally brought a few servants and food boxes to bring them dinner.
