When Mr. Zhao heard this, he persuaded: "Master, even if this is the foot of the Son of Heaven in the capital, he will still commit crimes, and there has been nothing in previous years, so every performance assessment is mediocre." Although there is a big case now, but the case can be solved, and when the time comes, the copywriting will be submitted to it, and the master will also make a great achievement. ”

Lord Chen thought about it and nodded, now he can only think about it like this, he should comfort himself, otherwise there is no other way.

Who made him the parent official at the feet of the Son of Heaven, as long as the slightest thing happened in the realm under his jurisdiction, there were countless pairs of eyes staring, and if he couldn't do it, he would lose his head, and if he couldn't do it, he would lose his head. If the emperor thinks that he has done a good job and offends some people next to him, this head does not need to be lost, and he can be embarrassed, but he will not live long.

Yacha looked at Lord Chen and spoke, but he didn't move, so he had to remind again: "My lord, someone from outside reported the case, saying that a cavity was found, do you want to look at it now or not." ”

Lord Chen looked at the sky, he was almost in charge of the lamp, and estimated that the dinner of the lady at home was ready.

sighed: "Let's ascend." ”

After speaking, he walked towards the hall of the government with the paperwork.

As soon as he came out from behind the screen and sat down in his seat, he saw two people kneeling in front of him, one looked like a housekeeper dressed as a butler, and the one kneeling next to him seemed to be a servant following him, and in front of them was a door panel, which was covered with a white cloth.

Under this white cloth, don't think about it, it should be the cavity he brought.

Lord Chen looked at it, and before he asked, he was about to cry in his heart, what is this called, in one day, this is the sixth body. If you kill someone, you will kill someone, why do you cut off someone's head, so that people can't even tell who it is.

How can people check this!

If this is not managed well, let alone his black gauze hat, it is still a question whether he can keep his head.

Lord Chen looked at the kneeling people, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, because the parents at the feet of the Son of Heaven were not good officials, and since he took office, he had been offering the Bodhisattva at home.

I hope every day and night, only hope that nothing major will happen during my tenure, and pray for the safety of this side. Fortunately, this realm is also peaceful, even if there are one or two homeless people who starve to death, or those ruffians who commit crimes and fight and kill people.

It's all a trivial matter, and no one cares about the surname of the ordinary boss, so it's good to deal with it. I'm afraid that there are so many dignitaries and nobles in Beijing, and if something happens to someone's family, his three heads are not enough to care.

Seeing that his term of office was about to expire, Lord Chen burned incense every day and looked forward to not having an accident.

But I didn't expect that a young lady Lu had just died in front of Gonghua's house in the Jin Kingdom a few years ago, and she was hit by a startled horse and trampled to death, and the scene was a tragedy.

Later, the princesses of the two countries were involved.

It's also a shame that this case is too big, and it wasn't investigated by his Jingzhao Mansion, so the emperor assigned it to someone else, and he hasn't caught his breath yet, just woke up this morning, and the Hua family came again.

said that a human head was found in the yard of his young lady.

When I heard that it was the Hua family who reported the case, and when I saw the head, Lord Chen's heart never fell.

Now there is a missing head lying in front of him, how can he not make his heart bitter.

But no matter what you think in your heart, since someone has reported the case, you have to take it.

I had to ask forcefully, "Who is in the hall?" ”

Hearing this, the housekeeper who had been kneeling respectfully returned: "I am the housekeeper of the Qian family in the west of the city, and this night the servants at home went to the back door to pile up the sundries and pack up the things, and found a person there, thinking it was a drunkard who drank the Tao, but when he got closer, he found that it was a headless one, so he quickly reported the case to your lord." ”

When Lord Chen heard this, he instructed the yacha to lift the white cloth on the cavity and take a look.

Immediately, a yacha stepped forward to lift the white cloth, and saw a male corpse wearing a royal blue brocade robe lying upright, with scribe boots on his feet.

When Lord Chen saw this cavity, he suddenly had a terrible headache.

Hey, I'm really afraid of something, this lord is the lord of a rich family at a glance, it's not a dignitary and nobleman's house, how can it be good to get into a stiff when the time comes.

I hope that it is best to be a certain merchant, or a foreigner's family, don't put it on the official family, if there are so many princes in the capital, if it is theirs, it will be troublesome.

In case it is his own boss, he will not be able to catch the murderer at that time, but he is afraid that it will be difficult to explain.

Lord Chen didn't know if he was rushing today or if he was sleeping in the wrong position last night, which way he collided with the immortals, and he really wanted to do something.

Just as he was thinking, before he could speak, the doorkeeper knocked on the door and came in.

"Master, master, master!"

He was still gasping as he spoke.

Lord Chen was worried, and he had a little more to say, and he was even more annoyed when he heard the words: "What's the matter, this shouting, what do you have to say, you have forgotten the rules, right?" ”

After finishing speaking, he saw that the yacha had already approached and bowed: "Master, there is a report outside." ”

"Why did you report the crime again?" Master Chen muttered a sentence when he heard this, and then asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Master, there was a person outside, with a human head, who said that he picked it up in their yard, and I don't know whose it was, so I took it to the yamen and let the master call the shots." Yacha said, looking at Lord Chen with worried eyes.

Seeing that Lord Chen heard the head, he immediately gasped, and almost cried when he touched his head.

"Why is this blue sky and white day, do all this."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and signaled to the yacha: "Bring it up." ”

"Yes." The yacha immediately received the order and brought people in.

It was a turtle boy who came in, and everyone knew each other at first sight.

After all, the yamen errand office also often goes to the flower street and willow lane, and there are all the people who are filthy there, and there are often offenders, so the old bustard of which family of the turtle and which family can also recognize the face of the old bustard.

The yacha looked at it, but Lord Chen didn't know it, after all, he didn't go there in person when he was on an errand.

When I saw the person who came, I couldn't help asking: "Who is in the hall?" ”

The kneeling turtle man replied: "Back to the adult, the small one is the turtle man of the Rouge Building, whose name is Li San." ”

"What's going on?"

"It's open tonight, and the little one went to the backyard to get something and smelled something, and found a human head under the courtyard wall, and came to report to the official." The turtle man said honestly and decently.

Then the head is presented.

A human head was still covered with blood and mud, and everyone was cautious when they looked at it.

The yacha carried the human head on a tray and presented it, and Lord Chen suddenly skipped a beat in his heart when he saw it.

His face was ugly, and he muttered in his mouth: "Something big happened." ”
