When Chen Ying's voice landed, the faces of these officials became more and more strange.

Naturally, they already knew the whole story of this matter, but at this moment, after listening to Chen Ying's description, they still felt incredible.

In what year will not a few descendants of these big families die? All the ponds and dry wells are good places for a big living person to disappear silently.

Although the laws of the Great Chu clearly stipulate that slaves are not allowed to be punished in private, let alone killed at will. But as a statute is a statute, so will the damned die.

These minions were originally sold, and the lives of the family were in the hands of the master, even if someone in the family died unexplained, how could they dare to go to the government to report the case? And as long as no one reports the crime, who will dare to run into these nobles' mansions to investigate the dead minions? Isn't that self-helping?

But now, this girl "detective" who is said to have been recognized by Emperor Yuanjia Chrysostom has put a case on the table in a serious way, which makes people a little embarrassed.

Zhu Jiming rolled his eyes, then looked up to the sky and snorted, and said: "Hahaha, the girl is really hot-eyed, she really deserves the name of a detective, and she can see at a glance that it is not a water plant but hair, which is really amazing." I admire it to the end, admire it to the end! ”

first slapped a sycophant, and then he looked left and right with a look of embarrassment, and lowered his voice and said: "Since the girl asked someone to report the case, then she is going to see the corpse, and we will naturally do our duty and salvage the corpse." Just...... This kind of thing is very pickled, or ...... Girl, how about you please go home first? When the case progresses, we will send someone to report it to the girl. ”

When he said this, Zhu Jiming was a little weak in his heart.

The one who brought them over today was Xie Shao, the official of Shengjing Mansion who had just taken office.

This Lord Xie was born in a family, and he is even more exquisite, and he has only been in office for half a year, and he has thoroughly understood all the households in Beijing.

Today, he and Xingjibo had a very happy conversation, Uncle Fang took out a few pieces of calligraphy and paintings collected by his ancestors, and appreciated them with Xie Shao, the two of them are still sitting in the study, and several of them were sent out by Xie Shao on an errand.

Zhu Jiming is a capable official, and he is also very good at doing things according to the direction of the wind. He always felt that they meant to turn big things into small things and small things.

It's just that I didn't expect that there was an additional Guogong Mansion in the middle.

Zhu Jiming wanted to scratch his head.

He is an errand man at the bottom, and now in this situation, he can only figure out the meaning of Shangguan, take one step and look at one step. As for how far he can go, it is not for him to decide.

Of course, if you can fool this detective girl, and then close the case with "suicide by throwing herself into the lake" in a so-so manner, then the matter should be complete.

"Guys, you're not going to casually end a murder case with the rhetoric of 'committing suicide by throwing yourself into a lake', right?" A very clean voice rang out.

Zhu Jiming's brows couldn't help jumping.

It was the weird Chen San girl who spoke.

How did she know?

Zhu Jiming was secretly shocked in his heart, but he still had a thick smile on his face, and bowed down and said, "Ouch, Miss Chen San doesn't dare to admit this." This corpse hasn't been fished out yet, how can it be said that the case is closed? That's not a good idea. As he spoke, he looked back at a few colleagues and said with a smile: "Did you say that?" ”

All the officials nodded in unison, indicating that they would never close the case casually, and everyone had a solemn face.

"That's fine." Chen Ying twisted the corners of her mouth.

Even though Mi Fence covered her face, she still made a smiling expression out of inertia: "I'm afraid that you will close the case casually, if that's the case, I can only report to Your Majesty truthfully." ”

The smile on Zhu Jiming's face froze suddenly, and the rest of the officials also smiled.

Giving a report to Your Majesty?

Where does this begin?

"When His Majesty gave the gold medal, he also issued an edict, saying that if I encounter a case, first, I must find out the truth, and second, I must report it truthfully." Chen Ying seemed to know what they were thinking, and said unhurriedly: "That is to say, from the beginning, I will record your every move in detail and report it truthfully." ”

Zhu Jiming was stunned for a few breaths, and the sweat came down after "brushing" the ground, and he subconsciously raised his hand to wipe it.

That sounds a little scary.

Your Majesty actually gave such an edict? Is this possible?

He had momentary suspicions.

Soon, however, he dismissed his speculation.

Is there anyone in this world who has eaten the courage of an ambitious leopard and dares to falsely spread the emperor's message? The laws of the Great Chu clearly remember that whoever falsely preaches the holy oracle ......

"According to the six theories of the Great Chu Law, 'it is said to be a forgery of the edict, and it is said to be a great disrespect', which is one of the ten evils, and it should be punished according to the law." Chen Ying said lightly, as if reading Zhu Jiming's thoughts.

Zhu Jiming's sweat-wiping hand paused, and he looked at Chen Ying with a shocked expression.

He was familiar with "The Law of Great Chu", and he knew that what Chen Ying recited was exactly a passage in the "Ten Evils", and there was no mistake in a word.

It wasn't until that moment that Zhu Jiming finally realized that this Chen San girl didn't seem to be joking, but for real.

"I have told you everything I know, and if you want to recover the corpse and examine it, you can do it boldly." Chen Ying said lightly and put down the gold medal: "I'm just watching from the sidelines, so as to record it truthfully, you don't have to worry about me, but just go." ”

The sweat on Zhu Jiming's forehead was dripping down, he could only keep wiping it, he even forgot to take out the handkerchief, and stammered: "What, Chen ...... Miss Chen San, there is no ...... below"

"Our criminal department has taken over this case, you can go back." A man's voice suddenly came from behind him, interrupting him.

Zhu Jiming was taken aback, and when he looked back, he saw a tall figure wearing a dark color straight robe, striding over, and behind that figure, there were several officials in official uniforms, one of whom he happened to know, and it was an acquaintance of the Criminal Department.

How did someone from the Criminal Department end up here?

And they still want to take over such a case?

What the hell is going on?

Zhu Jiming felt a little dizzy.

He took a deep breath, forced himself to settle down, stepped forward and bowed and said, "Xiaguan Zhu Jiming, I have seen a few adults. ”

Worship when you see officials, this is the way for these little officials to survive. Besides, there are clearly people in that group of people who have a heron painted on their complements, which is the color of the six-grade official's clothes.

Even the six-rank officials can only stay behind, which shows that the identity of the person who came is definitely not low, but it is not something that these little officials can afford to provoke.
