Qiao Luo was entangled in some trivial matters in Zhuangzi, and when Zheng Lingyi and Wu Punishment came, they had already gone to Mi's house, and when the two came back, Qiao Luo had already returned to Zhuangzi.

However, when Qiao Luo came, he brought a small cage of flowing fireflies to Zheng Lingyi, and put them in the glass cover, and when Zheng Lingyi pushed the door and saw it, he thought that the stars had fallen in the yard, and asked Lu Nong to pick them up.

When I came back, I washed and bathed, and Bing Jian had already put it on the table, for fear that the masters would catch a cold at night, so Bing Jian was far away and was resting by the door.

The coolness slowly soaked into the inner room, soothing the heat of the summer night.

Zheng Lingyi was a little tired today, and he didn't have the energy to read, so he blew out the candle early, but the two couldn't sleep, and the sound of silk and bamboo music lingered in their ears.

Zheng Lingyi suddenly got up, stepped over Wu Punishment in the dark, and almost stepped on him.

"Do what?" Wu punished, Zheng Lingyi did not answer, but walked towards the green light.

Immediately, dots of green starlight spread out in the room, as if dragging the night curtain down and throwing it into this small inner room, and it was as if this inner room had suddenly broken free from the shackles of the world and became a heavenly palace.

"They say that rotten grass turns into fireflies, but is it true?"

Zheng Lingyi lay back in the quilt, and a few more fireflies followed her and flew here, turning and moving, as if in an instant.

Wu Zhi thought about it for a while, and wanted to say no, but he felt that he was ruining the emotion at the moment, so he said vaguely: "Maybe." ”

Zheng Lingyi turned around, leaned his head on his shoulder, and said, "You haven't finished the case with me yet." ”

She looks like a child who wants someone to sleep.

Wu Zhi smiled silently in the starry night sky, and said softly: "The secret between the Huang family and Zhou Lang is confessed by the Miao family. ”

"Why? Isn't it that the Miao family has already known about the ugly things of the two and has endured it for many years? Zheng Lingyi's voice was accompanied by the breath she exhaled, sticking to Wu Zhi's ears.

Wu Zhi did not answer directly, but said: "Erlang has a son and a daughter, the eldest son said that he was born in Tongfang, and his biological mother is deceased. When Miao entered the door, the child was already five years old and had been raised in the Huang family courtyard since he was a child. ”

"The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, but it is reasonable." Zheng Lingyi said vaguely.

After getting married, the Miao family wanted to bring the child back to be raised, but the Huang family never refused. But after the always obedient child arrived at Miao's side, he became very stubborn and almost injured Miao's biological daughter. Miao had no choice but to beg Huang to talk about the child and bring it back, and he was beaten for a long time. ”

"This, maybe this kid is sensitive and nostalgic." Zheng Lingyi was a little sleepy, and his brain was not very flexible, but suddenly he was so happy that he suddenly became energetic, "Could it be that kid......

It was precisely in this way that Miao once heard that Huang asked the child to call his mother, and the truth was revealed. And the reason why Tuesday Lang had a dispute with the Huang family was because the years had changed, and Tuesday Lang's heart had also changed. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to his family, the Huang family could only hold his own son in his hands, so he thought about recording the child in the name of the big house, but in this way, most of the property had nothing to do with Erlang. ”

In this way, it becomes a killing game.

Zheng Lingyi was able to guess the next thing, and said, "That Tuesday Lang was in the prime of life, so he must be unhappy." Come to think of it, the reason why the Miao family said this is because after the death of Zhou Erlang, all the property of the Zhou family was inherited by the child, and the child was raised by the Huang family, and he has always been disgusted with the Miao family and his biological daughter. The Huang family is also at the end of the road. ”

"In this matter, the Miao family told me and the uncle of the Zhou family in private, although the child is indeed the heir of the Zhou family, but his life experience is indeed dirty and embarrassing. Later, a compromise was chosen, everyone kept the child's secret, and the property was divided between three and three. ”

"Three-three? And what about the remaining quarters? Zheng Lingyi was surprised, and then he figured it out, "It's owned by the clan, right?" ”

"The widow and orphan daughter of the Huang family must be coveted, it is better to directly give benefits to the clan, and there is a reliance in the future."

Wu Zhi also turned over, and his voice was faint above Zheng Lingyi's head.

"The Huang family is pitiful, and the family who married is filthy." Zheng Lingyi paused and said, "That kid is pitiful to say, and it's also bad to be reincarnated." ”

In the dark, Zheng Lingyi felt Wu Zhi touch her hair, and said, "The world is so hard, don't think about it." I can't figure it out. ”

His voice is good, always deep, Zheng Lingyi is also this voice in his dreams, the real dream is virtual and real, and he doesn't know when he fell asleep.

The facts of this case have already come to light, and it is naturally clear to say, but when Wu Punishment was investigating the case in Beijing, it was also difficult to straighten out a thousand things, and in addition, the uncle of the clan had to use some coercive means to protect the lintel of the family, so he had to use some coercive means to find out the case within five days.

This is the first time Wu Zhi has handled the case, and there are always a few pairs of eyes staring at it openly and secretly, although the case is concluded quickly and clearly, and it is impeccable, but there are always people who want to pick some thorns in the handover of documents.

Wu Zhi went to Dali Temple this morning, and wanted to go to find Guo Pingshi, but he heard that Guo Pingshi was called away by Lord Sicheng.

"When did you leave?" Wu asked another Gou Pingshi who was in the same room as Guo Pingshi.

"After walking for almost half a pillar of incense, he just came, and before he was next to the chair, he took a few dossiers and documents and walked with the entourage beside Gong Sicheng."

Gou Pingshi said, glanced at Wu Punishment, and muttered in a low voice: "Everyone is really diligent today." ”

It's too early for Wu to come today, don't mention Gong Sicheng, at this time in the past, only these trivial and complicated petty officials would arrive.

Wu Zhi casually flipped through the documents on Guo Pingshi's desk, and found that it was the case of Erlang in Beijing, and he already felt a little bad in his heart, so he didn't say anything, but only said to Gou Pingshi: "Thank you." ”

Seeing the cold side of his life, and his official position was above him, he didn't expect to get a word of thanks, but he was a little unexpected, and said busily: "It's okay." ”

Wu Zhi thought about it, and he was not in a hurry at the moment, so he walked towards the temple and the officials' house.

He rested on the tree at the entrance of the courtyard for a while, and when he saw Guo Pingshi coming out of the house dejectedly, he jumped down from the tree.

Guo Pingshi looked back when he heard the sound, and was not very surprised to see Wu Punishment appear out of thin air.

All the way to Beijing, he already knew that Wu was very good at kung fu.

"But deliberately trying to trouble you?" Wu Zhi walked to Guo Pingshi's side very naturally and walked with him.

Guo Pingshi didn't know how to return to this question, thought about it for a long time, and said: "According to what Sicheng said, I do have omissions and shortcomings. ”

"That's not making something out of nothing, it's making a big fuss."

Wu Zhi hit the nail on the head, so that Guo Pingshi did not dare to answer, and said that "Sizheng is cautious" is also admitted.

There are a total of six people in the temple, and the case that Wu Zhi has sentenced still needs to be reviewed by the temple, if the temple wants to give some guilt in a small place, it is more convenient than the temple master.

"Gong Sicheng is from the Gong family?" Wu said suddenly.

"I've heard people say that it seems to be the second room of the Gong family." Guo Pingshi is not an inquisitive character, and most of the things he knows are also from auditing, but this sentence is enough.

It is the Gong family's big house that is married to the Mi family, this Gong Sicheng is from the second room, but he is a relative who has turned eighteen corners.

Wu Zhu didn't think of using this so-called relative to intercede, but only said to Guo Ping: "Is there anything you need my help with?" Copy and write, I write quickly. ”

Guo Pingshi shook his head and said, "No need. ”

Wu Zhi thought about it, this Gong Si Cheng did it, because someone instructed him, he didn't bother Wu Punishment, but he added trouble to Guo Ping's affairs, didn't he want to ask Wu Zhi to be no longer willing to help in the future?

"This extra errand is because of it, you calculate the time and energy you spend, I will discount the silver to subsidize you, if it is still my errand next time, I hope you will not refuse."

Guo Pingshi's wooden eyes were a little more puzzled, and he said, "But this is my errand." ”

Wu punished: "Having said that, this is not the reason. When you first met me, you weren't much surprised, and you also knew that Gong Sicheng's nitpicking was caused by me. If I pretend not to know, you may endure it once or twice, but what if this kind of thing continues in the future? Am I not helpless? ”

"In the future? Are you that annoying? Guo Ping said puzzled.

His naivety made Wu Zhi want to laugh a little, and said, "How did Guo Pingshi enter Dali Temple?" ”

"My family is poor, and people are stupid and dull, so I can't afford to rely on Jinshi for three or three years, so I simply took the Ming Law Course, which is also an errand."

Guo Pingshi said that, Wu Zhi, who was afraid of being a jinshi, laughed at himself, so he secretly glanced at him, saw that he looked as usual, and felt that he was a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

"Know how to make trade-offs, and be wise and foolish." Wu Zhi said, glancing at him.

Guo Pingshi is short, and he seems to be a little older than Wu Punishment, but when he walks beside him, he looks like a younger brother.

"How long will it take to complete this errand?" Wu Zhi said again.

Guo Ping did the math and said, "Two hours are always necessary." ”

"Then count it as your two hundred." Wu punished.

"Much more." Guo Pingshi was quick to calculate, so he excused himself.

"Too much, not much, I can remember the whole number." Wu Zhi said again.

The conversation between the two of them, like buying vegetables in the market, made Guo Pingshi feel in a trance, as if today's disaster is not a disaster, but a blessing.

Wu Punishment didn't just want to win over Guo Pingshi, but checked, Guo Pingshi's family is poor, and he has an unmarried sister and young brother at the bottom, and the money he gave can really solve his urgent need.

After the dispersal value, Wu punished the horse and rode back to the house, and the horse under the crotch was given by the old general Wu. The whole body is dark, and the temperament is very calm.

He likes to be clean, likes to walk some paths, and occasionally notices any abnormal movement behind him.

But a person suddenly fell on the horse's back, and he didn't notice it in advance, and slashed it away, but saw the man fly up with his arms outstretched, and said with a smile: "It's just playing, why bother with the knife?" ”
