Huo Feng was silent for a moment, as if he was still hesitating about his decision.

Emperor Qianling was not in a hurry to urge, but just looked at her.

Since Huo Feng can speak, it proves that she will definitely say that the next step is just a time process for her self-struggle.

Finally, Huo Feng spoke with difficulty, "He...... once broke a case and killed a young girl. ”

"Is it an unjust, false and wrongful case?" Ye Jingjing asked.

Huo Feng counted with his fingers, shook his head and said, "No, that young girl did kill people, so Lord Shen punished her according to the law and beheaded her." ”

I don't know why, after thinking that the criminal was not a fierce and vicious man, but a young girl, Ye Jingjing always felt a little hairy on her back.

But the law doesn't cover anyone, let alone punish people if they make mistakes, so she didn't say anything, just wondered, "Is this also a death?" ”

"Anyway, she killed people." Huo Feng said in a low voice. "It's as if the woman's ghost has been haunting him all along."

"Huh?" Ye Jingjing's eyes widened. "Can you still see ghosts?!"

Huo Feng hurriedly denied it, "I didn't, I just guessed so...... You see Lord Shen's face is so bad, it is estimated that the ghost has been haunting him, making him physically and mentally exhausted. ”

"But I've never heard Shen Ping talk about it." Zhaoyu said suspiciously. "What's more, isn't he not resting well because he is pestered by his wife?"

Qi Wushuang waved his hand, "Maybe that's a nonsense he made up." Remember what the butler said? 'That little slut'...... No matter how this sounds, it sounds like scolding a woman, I'm afraid, it's the young girl I am referring to. ”

Emperor Qianling glanced at Huo Feng and asked, "Since Shen Ping didn't do anything wrong, why didn't he dare to tell this matter?" Are you still shielding him and making excuses for him? ”

Faced with Emperor Qianling's questioning, Huo Feng said firmly, "I don't know how to judge the case, but I know that he must be not wrong." ”

"Why?"

"There's no reason."

I thought that Huo Feng would say that she had calculated something like that, but she actually just judged it by intuition, and Di Qianling only felt helpless and funny.

However, the conclusion is still inconclusive, and it is difficult for him to judge whether Huo Feng and Shen Ping really have a problem.

At this time, Qi Wushuang put forward his own suggestion, "If Shen Ping did something bad and didn't dare to speak, then we have to start from scratch and see if there are any suspicious points in that case."

"A county magistrate who is an official either received black money from someone, or did something to the woman, which will cause him to dare not speak, and these clues are still easy to find."

Zhaoyu patted him and reproached, "We're here to find something, so don't be nosy." ”

"If Shen Ping is an ordinary person, I don't care about this idle matter, but he is a county magistrate, if he has any corruption, unjust, false and wrongful convictions, then this person's stay is also an unstable factor, and it must be eliminated." Qi Wushuang insisted.

Emperor Qianling opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say a word, just nodded.

Zhao Yu over there was also persuaded by Qi Wushuang, and the two agreed to go to see the file again, and let Emperor Qianling and Ye Jingjing wait here first.

Huo Feng insisted on following, and Qi Wushuang quipped, "Are you planning to destroy the evidence?" ”

Huo Feng said with a calm expression, "Because Lord Shen is very good to me, I need to know what happened back then." If he was wronged, then I will help him solve the problem.

"Conversely, if he really did something wrong...... Then I will not stop you and let him get the punishment he deserves, which is fair and just...... It's just that, if that's the case, I follow you in the hope that I can learn the truth. ”

I didn't expect her to say such righteous words, which made Qi Wushuang a little impressed.

After they left, Ye Jingjing said softly, "I know what you're worried about. Shen Ping is a Qing official, and after he leaves, maybe no one wants to come to Taiping County to be an official. ”

Emperor Qianling sighed, "Qing officials are hard to find, if he is really found out to have a problem this time, I should sanction him, but Yu Zhi, I hope that there is no such thing and I can let him stay." ”

"Yes, when there is such a dilemma, you, the king, are actually more headaches than the parties. Since this is the case, then let's hope that Shen Ping has done nothing wrong. ”

Ye Jingjing showed a smile as warm as a spring breeze, which made Emperor Qianling feel calm.

"Since we think he's a good officer, maybe he hasn't done anything wrong."

Seeming to be infected by her emotions, Emperor Qianling breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed her head, and said with a smile, "That's the only hope." ”

Soon, Shen Ping brought someone to invite them to lunch, and Qi Wushuang and the others also put down their work for the time being and followed.

After lunch, they plunged into the file again, trying to find clues, and even Shen Ping admired their dedication.

However, if he knew that Qi Wushuang and the others were here to verify him, I am afraid he would not think so.

Seeing that Qi Wushuang and the others were in high spirits, Ye Jingjing was also embarrassed to be idle, so she used the excuse of wandering around the yard and soon came to the kitchen.

She leaned against the door and listened, and when she noticed that there was someone chatting inside, she immediately pushed the door in and did not say hello.

The cook, the old mother and others who were eating melon seeds inside were startled, and they all froze in place, keeping the action of eating melon seeds or sitting cross-legged, looking extremely funny.

Before Ye Jingjing could speak, the cook knelt down with a "plop" and cried bitterly, "This adult, you can spare me, I won't dare next time!" ”

Ye Jingjing was stunned by this sudden begging for mercy, but after all, she was also a woman who had been in the entertainment industry and had seen many scenes, so this little accident was nothing at all, so she didn't make any surprised expressions, but immediately lowered her face and waited for the cook's next sentence.

When the cook saw that she didn't speak, he mistakenly thought that she was iron-faced and selfless, and he was even more frightened, "Please, this adult, female bodhisattva, goddess fairy!" Don't tell me about it! ”

Ye Jingjing sneered deliberately, "I don't say it, how can you change it?" What's more, you have done so much, what is it that you don't want me to say? ”

The cook panicked, and hurriedly swore to the sky, "Wronged! I really just deducted the food, I never did anything else! ”

He pointed to a few old mothers next to him, "They did it to leave the money, not me!" ”

Those old mothers suddenly became anxious, "Bastard, why did you confess us?!" ”
