Chapter 83: Governor of the Eight Grades
My father's lineage is all lowly.
Jian Qing heard Zeng Zuochao call her father "adult", and immediately burst into tears, she endured it and smiled, "The adult said that he was joking, the villain's father is just a trick, and so is the villain, how can he be an adult?" ”
Zeng Zuochao didn't embarrass her, "When did you return to Beijing?" Since you came, why didn't you come to see me at the Yamen? ”
He was almost arrested as a suspect.
Jian Qing smiled, didn't take it too seriously, and continued to talk about the case, "My lord, the little one has a request, can you also examine the bodies of the other deceased?" ”
"Naturally, you can." Zeng Zuochao said earnestly, "You are still in the future, your feat has been spread to the Jingshi, your father's colleagues and friends back then did not have many survivors, but everyone is very relieved, your father has a successor, which makes me envious!" ”
When people reach middle age, after having children, their career achievements are ranked behind, and whether the children are fighting or not, and what the future is, has become a matter of comparing with each other.
It's human nature!
Jian Qing smiled humbly and didn't say much.
Zeng Zuochao was moved by her calmness that did not match her age, "There is still a lack of a governor in my yamen, I think you are just right." ”
The "governor" is the internal intermediate affairs officer directly under the prefect or the governor, and the governor of the general local government is the ninth grade, and he has just entered the stream. The governor of Ying Tianfu is from the eighth grade.
If Jian Qing can be the governor, he can be regarded as an official.
However, if she is in a lowly status, if there is no amnesty from the emperor, it will be passed down from generation to generation, and she will not be allowed to marry ordinary people, participate in the imperial examination, and be an official.
Zeng Zuochao is risking his net worth and life to seek an official position for her! Did he think that in this imperial city, he would still be able to cover the sky with one hand?
Jian Qing was very moved, but she was not a person who was not very good at expressing feelings, perhaps because of her profession, in addition to being calm, she was very rational and refused, "Thank you for your kindness, it's just that the villain's long-cherished wish is to do a good job, if you can get the appreciation of the adult, you can find a job under the adult, the villain is grateful." ”
They both knew each other, and Zeng Zuochao also understood why Jian Qing would refuse. He was indeed hot-headed for a while, and when he saw that the son of the deceased wanted to take care of him, he didn't think much about it. But he never dreamed that Jian Qing would actually refuse.
"Good, good, good!" Zeng Zuochao raised his hand and patted Jian Qing on the shoulder twice, "Then let's make a fuss!" ”
He Jiu stood next to a large vat and listened to what Jian Qing and Zeng Zuo said in the back. He was simply dizzy, who the hell was this kid, and he actually asked Lord Fu Yin to appoint him as the governor as soon as he came. And he has done so many things for Lord Yin, but he has not been appreciated by adults.
Governor, from the eighth grade, if he can become a governor, he can also be regarded as an official of the imperial court. He Jiu inevitably longed.
Jian Qing walked around the courtyard and made sure that the murderer was not found. Only then did she follow Zeng Zuochao back to the front yard, where she still needed to ask the dyeing workshop some questions.
Jian Qing raised her head and met a pair of eyes full of hatred, she was stunned for a moment, and then smiled at He Jiu defiantly.
He Jiu's cheeks twitched fiercely, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
I don't know if Zeng Zuochao deliberately wanted to bring Jian Qing up, or if he wanted to test him, Zeng Zuochao handed over the initiative to Jian Qing to ask the case. He sat on the Taishi's chair, brought a cup of tea, and listened to Jian Qing's questioning while drinking.
"Pay off, did you hear any movement in the courtyard in an hour before we came in?"
"Nope."
Zeng Zuo knelt down in front of him, all of them were guys who had just worked in the backyard, Jian Qing asked the same thing, and no one said that he heard the movement.
One of the team leaders said, "We work, there is a voice, and the work of dyeing cloth is also very important. ”
To put it quite reasonably, Jian Qing's eyes looked at the bodies of the twenty or so people one by one, and she asked everyone to stand up and walk a few steps.
One of them was a cripple, and when he walked, one foot high and the other low.
Jian Qing deliberately paid attention to the man, about his early twenties, if you put aside his lameness, this person can be regarded as burly, if the golden rooster is independent, he is five feet tall, but unfortunately the other leg really dragged him back.
"Adult, there's nothing to ask about the little ones."
Zeng Zuochao was very surprised, but Jian Qing was the son of an old man, and secondly, her feat in Shanxi was indeed amazing, and Zeng Zuochao himself had nothing to ask, so he decided to leave it like this for the time being.
Who knows, He Jiu said, "My lord, the villain suggested that the car dealership and the dyeing workshop should be strictly searched, maybe there is a murder weapon hidden." ”
Jian Qing deliberately looked at the cripple's left foot deep and his right foot shallow, but seeing that his body didn't shake for a moment, he simply pressed the doubts in his heart.
"Search?" Jian Qing asked in surprise, "Senior He Jiu, there is no evidence, search the houses, if the case is solved like this, the junior suggests that you can ask the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to simply close the Nine Gates and conduct a city-wide search." ”
He Jiu was dumbfounded, he had probably never seen such a brazen person in his life, "Search the whole city? Are you kidding? Do you know how big that was? ”
"But if you searched these two shops, did you ever think about them from their point of view? How big is the movement? And how big is the impact? Shouldn't we try to nuisance the people when we handle cases? ”
"Then have you ever thought that if you don't catch the murderer quickly one day, you won't know who will be poisoned tomorrow!" He Jiu's righteousness was awe-inspiring, and suddenly, the onlookers were extremely angry, as if Jian Qing was the one who acted for the tiger and cooperated in committing the crime.
Jian Qing didn't speak, she was speechless.
Zeng Zuochao raised his hand and stopped He Jiu's speech that was still ready to be filled with righteous indignation, "This official has decided not to conduct a search and arrest, if the case is delayed, this official will bear it with all his might!" ”
Jian Qing was already a person from Yingtianfu, so he naturally followed Zeng Zuochao into Yingtianfu, and when he arrived at the door, He Jiu glanced at her, it's not that she can't afford to raise two people in the mansion, but how to divide the labor?
As soon as he thought of working with this kid in the future, He Jiu was extremely unhappy.
However, after entering the yamen, He Jiu's lowly deeds are not qualified to speak in front of Zeng Zuochao.
Jian Qing was also ready to stop, but Zeng Zuochao had a lot to ask, so he asked Jian Qing to follow him to the study, which made He Jiu more and more jealous, he saw that he was fine, so he went out of the yamen, found a brother who had a good relationship with him, and went to the wine shop to drink together.
He Jiu's brother served in the Zhenfu Division, and he was just a cavalryman, specializing in arresting prisoners.
The two live in neighborhoods, and after He Jiu knew that this Tiqi was actually cousins with a general banner of Beizhen Fusi, he was quite stammered with this Tiqi, often shouting and drinking, and the relationship became closer and closer.
