Penal Department.

Qin Huaidao changed into the official uniform of Dali Temple, came in a hurry with Luo Zhang, did not dare to slack off at the door, and simply asked a few words to lead people directly to Li Jing's room, Li Jing was a little surprised, waved his hand to signal the door to leave, made a request, and quipped: "It's majestic to wear this body." ”

"I've seen Master Li." Qin Huaidao looked businesslike.

"Something?" Li Jing reacted that he was not visiting the door, and he also became serious.

"The bandits who attacked Qinjiazhuang last night are still in the Criminal Department, right?"

"Yes, what do you want to do?"

"Trouble Lord Li to help someone, send people to Anhua Gate or Qixia Gate, just find a place to put it." Qin Huaidao said seriously, these two gates are directly south of Chang'an, and there is a Mingde Gate in the middle, which is connected to Suzaku Street, and it is definitely not possible to lose the Mingde Gate.

Li Jing was a little surprised: "This is not in accordance with the rules, what are you going to do?" ”

"Naturally, it is to solve the case, and I also ask Lord Li to cooperate, and if something happens, the official will bear it."

"Nonsense, can you afford it? It is a big thing for people to die, it is against the etiquette system to do this, and those people in the Ministry of Rites can spray you to death. Li Jing reminded angrily.

"Master Li, this is a matter of Dali Temple, are you sure you don't cooperate? Prevent the lower officials from handling the case, and the lower officials have the right to suspect that you are a member of the same party and go to the Holy Authority to visit you. "Qin Huaidao used Dali Temple to exert pressure and had a strong attitude, this matter must be done, otherwise it will affect the future plan.

Luo Zhang looked at the corners of his eyes twitching, there was no one who had the courage to threaten, even Li Jing dared to threaten.

Li Jing was also very angry, and said with a dark face: "Are you sure you want to do this?" ”

"Of course, Master Li can ignore it and not support the lower official to solve the case, as long as he says it, the lower official will leave immediately, but out of this door, the lower official will use the identity of the bitter master to go to Wannian County to sue your criminal department for harboring the murderer, and make a fuss, everyone's face is not bright, whoever prevents me from taking revenge is my enemy, Uncle Li, please do it." After speaking, Qin Huaidao solemnly bowed and held the junior salute.

"What are you...... Forget it, I'll go crazy with you once. Li Jing couldn't cry or laugh, he could see that Qin Huaidao was very determined, and he really dared to sue, but when the time came, everyone was gloomy, and asked with concern: "Tell me about your plan." ”

"Thank you for your support." Qin Huaidao said politely, but he didn't want to say it.

"Even the old man doesn't want to reveal it?" Li Jing was a little old-fashioned, seeing Qin Huaidao's cold face, he knew that he couldn't ask why, so he didn't bother to ask again, so he immediately called someone to explain a few words.

The time of a stick of incense.

A large number of carriages walked out of the criminal department, and the corpses of the murderer were piled up in the carriage, which were well covered, and there was no disturbance along the way, Qin Huaidao followed the convoy slowly.

The convoy came out of Anhuamen, walked forward for a distance, and randomly found an open space to carry the corpses off the carriage, and lined them up on the ground in a row, not covering them, which immediately attracted the attention of people passing by.

Qin Huaidao jumped into a carriage and shouted loudly: "Everyone, this official Dali Temple is Qin Li, I am ordered to investigate the case, these people are traitors, please help identify them, the whistleblower will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver, the second whistleblower will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver, and the third whistleblower will be rewarded with 10 taels of silver, and then the whistleblower will not." ”

Everyone was in an uproar.

Someone shouted, "Lord Qin, is it true?" What if I don't get the money? ”

"That's it, don't fool me to wait."

"What should I do if the traitor party knows about our report, and I will retaliate in the future?"

Qin Huaidao had already prepared, and shouted loudly: "If you have an insider, you can go to Jufu Restaurant for dinner, and quietly inform the shopkeeper of Jufu Restaurant of the news, and the shopkeeper will give you the reward money quietly, and the meal money will be waived, who knows if you report it at that time?" However, there is one thing to remind everyone, if anyone dares to lie, he is guilty of the same crime as a traitor. ”

"Is there really a silver reward?" Someone shouted, clearly moved.

"You don't believe what the official said, anyway, there is no loss to everyone, it's better to try your luck, what if there is?" Qin Huaidao explained loudly and jumped out of the carriage.

Luo Zhang asked uneasily, "Uncle, can this work?" ”

"It's okay to try it to know, there are not many people who know the dead, but there are a lot of ghosts, snakes and gods in Chang'an City, there are always people who have other ways, as long as someone reports, we can find evidence along the vine, understand?"

"Anyway, it's either the Wang family or the Cui family, won't it be over if you look for them directly?"

"What about the evidence?" Qin Huaidao asked angrily: "Go directly to the door, the two families can completely push it clean, and even bite back, saying that we are falsely accused, the dead are all domestic slaves who sold themselves, but they also need to be filed with the county government, as long as someone reports it, they can find their reporting identity, and the archive of the report is evidence." ”

"It makes sense, but many families are reluctant to report to their slaves in order to avoid leaking secrets."

Qin Huaidao smiled indifferently: "It is impossible for the family slaves cultivated by the family to stay in one place every day, they need to go to various places to do some shady things, what should they do if they don't have an identity?" How do you get around without a guide? Taking a step back, even if you don't report it, you are not afraid. ”

"Why?" Luo Zhang's eyes were full of surprise.

"Because there is another purpose for doing this, to show the families of these people."

Qin Huaidao said coldly, with a glint in his eyes: "People die for the greatest, and they are safe in the ground, and the corpse is left here, if the people behind the scenes ignore it, the family of the deceased will be cold, and they will have different hearts, and they will think, since the main family does not care whether they live or die, if they don't report it, there will be others who report it, it is better to report it yourself, take the silver and fly away, one thousand taels is enough to live." ”

"It makes sense, it can not only jump out of the people behind the scenes, but also provoke insiders to report, and it can also make the victim's family feel cold, killing three birds with one stone, Uncle is a powerful trick." Luo Zhang smiled sincerely.

Qin Huaidao smiled and said nothing, naturally he would not say that there was another layer of intention behind it, that is, Liwei, shaping himself into an image that would do anything for revenge, and deter Xiaoxiao.

Luo Zhang thought for a while and couldn't help asking, "Uncle, why is the first reward of 1,000 taels of silver, the second reward of 100 taels of silver, and the third reward of 10 taels of silver?" ”

"Because of human greed, if the difference is not big, we will wait and see, and when the difference is widened, we will want to report it anyway, why not be the first? Let's go. Qin Huaidao explained and walked forward.

The official in charge of escorting from the Criminal Department came over, saluted and said, "Lord Qin, shall we?" ”

"You have to work harder, help watch the point, no one is allowed to move the body, if anyone makes trouble, come to Jufu Building to find me." Qin Huaidao said, quietly stuffing three taels of silver.

Seeing that Qin Huaidao was so good at doing things, instead of directly putting pressure on the officials, the other party was grateful in his heart and assured: "Lord Qin, don't worry, the brothers will definitely watch it." ”

"Thank you." Qin Huaidao said politely and left in a hurry.

The two of them hurried all the way, hurriedly came to Jufu Building, and told the shopkeeper about the situation, the shopkeeper was the old man in Cheng Biting Jinfu, who knew Qin Huaidao, and also knew the relationship between the two families, so he agreed.

The bait has been lowered, and the next thing is to wait.
