Chapter 99: Young Master Wants to Move?
Lord Xu hasn't reported this matter to the top, after all, the stakes are very high, and he still has to make a secret visit before he can make a conclusion.
He has been an official for so many years, and he is well aware of a truth, that is, it is better not to do it than to do it wrong.
If you don't do it, most of the above say that you have no merit, if you do it wrong, so many eyes are staring, and he is afraid that this county order will have to be wiped down.
But since Liu Zhiheng is here, it means that she has some friendship with that girl, and he knows something if he can't keep it.
After thinking about it like this, he couldn't help but sit down slowly: "Well, it's serious if it's serious, and it's not serious if it's not serious......"
That is, there is still room for relaxation, and he immediately smiled: "Please be accommodating, and give us a chance to explain if there is any misunderstanding." ”
Young Master Liu, who has never been good friends with people, spoke like this, and Lord Xu had nothing to hide, so he told the news he had gotten.
It turned out that yesterday the catcher in his yamen secretly came to tell him that someone in the Lan village under his jurisdiction had fallen into evil, and if such a thing spread to the top, it would be worth it.
The above will definitely sentence him to have no control, and if something like this happens in the place under his jurisdiction, will he continue to be an official?
This matter must be stopped in time, so he ordered someone to bring it and detain it first.
If there is really no real evidence, then the only way to dispose of the person is to deal with it quietly, so as not to ruin his wisdom in an uproar.
Of course, he only said to Liu Zhiheng and them: "First investigate the secret visit, and then talk about it after the investigation is clear, you can't wronged a good person, right?" ”
The Liu family is an imperial businessman, and they naturally know more things in the palace than others, not to mention that the matter of the former emperor is not a secret, as long as you have the heart, you can know it as soon as you ask.
It's just that why did this catcher come to Lord Xu for no reason, saying that Wang Xiao was evil?
The arresters in the yamen arrest people to solve cases when there is a case, and patrol the streets when there is no case, where would they be so idle to pay attention to Wang Xiao, a little peasant girl?
While thinking about this, Liu Zhiheng said word by word: "Don't hide it, I have known this Wang Xiao for more than a few months, she acts safely, has a kind heart, although she is a little smart, but there is nothing out of the ordinary, not to mention evil or anything." ”
He leaned close to Lord Xu's ear: "Besides, those gods and ghosts, aren't they not able to walk in the sun, I think Miss Wang is quite normal." ”
Lord Xu frowned: "But the person who came said that she had a nose and eyes, saying that this Wang girl's temperament has changed greatly!" ”
Liu Zhiheng turned his face to look at Li Baoping, Li Baoping knew that he finally had a chance to speak.
He immediately said: "Lord Qiyu, the villain is Li Baoping from Lan Village, this Wang Xiao girl is the villain's wife, she grew up in Lan Village, she has never been far away, nor has she encountered any bizarre things, and I see that she is no different from now." ”
Lord Xu smiled "hehe": "Let's wait for the official's people to go out to investigate!" ”
Liu Zhiheng knew that this was to drive people away, so he arched his hand: "My lord is right, since the matter has been reported to the adult, whether it is true or not, it must be checked, I just hope that the adult will take care of Miss Wang for the sake of the villain's face and the Liu family's face." ”
"Since you are a friend of Young Master Liu, this official naturally knows what to do, don't worry!"
After the two came out of the county office, Li Baoping immediately said: "Thank you!" ”
If it weren't for Liu Zhiheng, he wouldn't even be able to see Lord Xu's face, let alone help Wang Xiao!
Liu Zhiheng glanced at him: "I saved her to help her because I wanted to help her, not because of anyone, so you don't have to thank me!" ”
Of course, Li Baoping understood what he was talking about, but he just didn't understand: "I'm going to see her, Young Master Liu must be tired from this trip, go back and rest, just leave the rest to me!" ”
Although the two are rivals because of Wang Xiao's emotional problems, they are still consistent with the outside world when they help Wang Xiao.
There are even a few tacit understandings that can guess what the other party thinks.
When Liu Zhiheng saw him say this, he immediately said: "Okay, let's contact you if there is a situation!" ”
As he spoke, he hurried back to the shop.
Li Baoping is going to see Wang Xiao, how can he fall behind?
But he wasn't as stupid as Li Baoping, so he went with two hands empty.
The girl was suddenly put in prison, and he must have been scared, hungry and cold, and he had to prepare everything he needed to use before he went.
As soon as he entered the Hanging Pot Hall, he instructed the housekeeper: "Prepare a few good quilts for Young Master Ben, and then go to Fu Shenglou to order a table of good wine and food, by the way, go buy a few clothes for women, and ...... good."
Seeing him making such a big fuss, the housekeeper couldn't help but say, "Young Master, are you going to move?" Where did you buy a yard this time? ”
Xiao Jiu glanced at his master and said with a smile: "Young master, this is not to move, he is busy with courtesy!" ”
The housekeeper was puzzled, which young lady in this town fell into the eyes of the young master? How did he not know?
Liu Zhiheng was a little impatient: "If you are told to go, you will go, where did so many words come from?" ”
The housekeeper even claimed that it was, and arranged for someone to prepare.
……
In the prison of the county government, Wang Xiao nested on a cold cot, constantly thinking about whether he had offended some big man recently, whether this person wanted to deliberately fix her, or did he want to get any benefits from her?
What big man can she offend as a peasant girl, the biggest person she knows is Liu Zhiheng, the two are in a cooperative relationship, how could he harm her?
Or does someone covet her beauty cream and want a piece of the pie?
But now that she hasn't been tortured and interrogated, it's a good thing, just wait for a while who will come to see her first, and she can guess a thing or two.
The officials who passed by saw her so calm, and they also admired her, and she was really the first woman who didn't make a lot of noise and cried when she entered the prison.
If she hadn't really done anything wrong, her heart was strong enough to let her go.
It was cold and dirty here, and Wang Xiao had to try to think about something else in order to divert his attention a little.
reminds me of the prison in the TV series I watched before, the gap between the two railings is called a wide, and it can be drilled out at a glance.
She stood up, came to the door, and put her head out to try.
As if the gap was quite wide, she turned her head, trying to get out of it.
It's not that she wants to escape from prison or anything, she doesn't have kung fu, she just plays, and it's a big deal to get in later.
She was having a good time here when she suddenly heard movement outside, as if someone was coming.
She hurriedly wanted to retract her head, but it was easy to drill out, and it was not so easy to come back.
