Zhou family compound, bedroom. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhou Gui and his wife discussed in the inner room.

The atmosphere was a little solemn.

Zhou Gui took out the documents obtained from the house, checked them one by one, and looked through them repeatedly.

Ning Shi also picked up a copy casually, and after only looking at a few lines, he exclaimed.

"How can it be someone from Yuqing Dao?"

This correspondence reveals striking facts.

Zhou Gui didn't look up and replied.

"With our family's background, is it worth Yuqingdao's plot?"

"That Xing Deyi just has something to do with Yuqing Dao, maybe it's an outer disciple."

Ning settled down a little and continued to read.

"All I have here are some greetings and greetings, and I can't see anything for the time being. Madame, have you noticed? ”

"I don't have anything here, but I seem to be instructed, looking for something, and I don't know if it's a person or a thing, and I don't know if it's a word."

"Huh? He still has a mission? Show me? ”

Zhou Gui took a letter, shook it open, and carefully considered it word by word.

The words between the lines are very cautious, and the specific places mentioned are all references, and Zhou Gui can't see anything.

"What are you looking for?"

Suddenly thinking of something, Zhou Gui turned back to his wife and said.

"Presumably, we still missed some keys, and that Xing Deyi can't stay!"

Zhou Gui said with a hint of murderous aura.

"I originally thought it was just deception and embezzlement, but I didn't want to have this layer involved. This Xing Deyi has to die no matter what! And, it's going to be fast! ”

"Although I don't know what Yuqing Dao is planning, I can't delve too deep for the time being, so as not to know too much, and it will be easy to be detected by the Dao Law!"

"I have a new Taoist book from the South China Sea Dragon Palace, if I succeed in cultivating, I will have to deal with Yuqing Dao in the future."

Yuqing Road opened the mountain gate widely, almost became the state religion, and the disciples of the sect were hundreds of thousands, all over the world. It's a behemoth. In the entire Great Xia, Yuqing Dao is intertwined and has complex relationships, occupying almost half of the world.

A little ant like the Zhou family can't afford to provoke Yuqingdao; No matter what the other party wants to do, it is not appropriate to continue to pursue it.

Zhou Gui knew the depth of the water, and he was unwilling to step into the quagmire, so he resolutely gave up the investigation.

"You go and order Zhou Cheng, Zhou Fu, and Zhou Yu to go to the yamen to do some work, take my name card, and close the case as soon as possible!" Remember, the sentence is severe! ”

Ning went out and called the personal maid Cui'er.

"Go and call Zhou Cheng, Zhou Fu, and Zhou Yu over, the master has something important to order."

Cui'er trotted to call someone, in the courtyard of the Zhou family, the place where the nurse, the servant, and the maidservant lived were all separated, Cuizi ran straight to the place where the servant was, and then went to the courtyard, ran back and forth a few times, and brought all the words to Ning's place to reply to the order.

"Madam, the words have been brought, but Zhou Yu went out to run errands today, saying that he was on an errand ordered by his master last month, and he is not at home now."

Running all the way, Cui'er's forehead was slightly sweaty.

When Ning saw it, he answered and waved her to rest.

After a while, Zhou Cheng and Zhou Fu both came.

"Madame!"

The two of them are domestic slaves, and they are also relatively useful people, and they are usually responsible for handling some chores at home.

"Did you hear about Xing Deyi?"

The two naturally heard about it and nodded.

"The master said, our Zhou family can't afford to support such a subordinate who eats inside and outside. You two, take this piece with you, go to the account office to withdraw twenty taels, go back to the yamen, close the case as soon as possible, and give him a good time. Remember, tomorrow morning, I'm going to hear the news of his suicide! ”

When the two of them heard this, they both felt a chill in their hearts, thinking that this was the beating of the master's family to their subordinates.

"Yes, madam, rest assured! I'm familiar with this matter, the old Li Tou in charge of the prison in the yamen has also drunk with my brothers, and I promise to do it properly for you! It doesn't take twenty taels, five taels is enough! ”

Zhou Fu said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, there are rules for doing this in the yamen, and it really doesn't take so much."

Zhou Cheng also echoed the words.

Like this kind of private affairs in the back house, the business in the yamen is proficient, and it can be done when you give money, and even after a long time, a set of unspoken rules has naturally formed. This kind of drama that makes people "commit suicide in fear of crime" is another remark minion, the price is very cheap, as long as five taels is enough.

"Take twenty taels with you, and the conviction for this matter must be quick! Everyone has stolen goods, what else can't be decided? Tonight at the latest, it's going to be done! ”

"No!"

The two of them took the order and went away, and withdrew twenty taels of broken silver from the account office, and rode to the county seat.

The matter itself is not complicated, and the person can be convicted on the spot if he gets the stolen goods, but the difficulty is actually to kill people tonight so that he "commits suicide in fear of crime", and this time is a bit rushed. If you don't hurry up, you won't have time to come back, after nightfall, the county also has a curfew・・・・・・ it's never a good idea to walk at night!

There are not many horses in the Zhou family's stable, only a dozen or so, all of them are ordinary horses, and the two of them hurried and hurried, and finally came to the county seat in time.

Dismounted, led on foot, and when you reach the county seat, you can't ride a horse and gallop.

The two of them had already walked the road, turned seven or eight roads, walked a few small roads, and found a remote house in the city.

Tie up the horse, Zhou Fu stayed and watched, Zhou Cheng stepped forward and knocked on the door, three long and two short, this is a code, representing the business to the door.

It took a while to knock repeatedly before someone answered.

"Who? It's noon, don't eat! ”

A shirtless man opened the door impatiently.

Seeing that it was Zhou Fu and an acquaintance, he let the door open.

After Zhou Fu entered, he closed it casually.

"Lao Litou, you are in charge of the criminal name, I don't want to say anything else, this is fifteen taels, and I will die tonight!"

"If you don't pick it up, give me an accurate word, my brother is in a hurry to go back!"

The one called Lao Li Tou heard it clearly, but he still took the silver two of Bai Huahua and nodded, the weight was not bad.

"What's wrong? Didn't your Zhou family just send someone to the prisoner in the morning? This man has all the stolen goods, what else is there to say? ”

"Supposedly, this is not enough, he has to be sentenced to at least 300 miles of exile, is there still an inside story?"

Lao Li asked with a smile.

Early in the morning, a group of people came to the Zhou family over there, and they sent this person over, why didn't they have an impression? There are sieves everywhere in the yamen, and this kind of thing will be talked about in the future, and it will inevitably be talked about on the streets for half a year.

Zhou Fu waved his hand.

"Hey, you don't know. That Xing Deyi looked like a dog, he actually ate inside and out, and found out that he had embezzled a large amount of silver in the morning, and only later did he find out that he was still colluding with outsiders! No, our lord is furious, and he must be allowed to commit suicide tonight! ”

Lao Li Tou is also used to seeing wind and rain, and he is not surprised at all, but he is secretly speechless.

"Cheng, it's not difficult! Fifteen taels is more than enough! This man has taken both the stolen goods, and he is still a slave of the betrayal, and at the least he will have to be exiled for 600 miles. If you do it well, you can close the case tonight. You wait for the news! ”

"Old Li, you have to be careful, our master has ordered, he must not see the sun tomorrow!"

"Don't worry! He's going to be so scared tonight that he's going to hang himself! Master Zhou has always been generous, and my Lao Li can't be ambiguous! ”

"That's it, my brothers will go back first!"
