This Liu Yushi, whose name is Liu Baichuan, is the imperial history of Jiangxi Province of the Nanjing Metropolitan Inspection Institute, and the grade is seventh. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Seven-rank official, it's not high, but it's on the body of a civil official, or the body of a royal history, so it's actually okay. Some turbid officials or military attachés, even if they are of a higher grade than him, have to politely shout out to adults.

Originally, the official system of the Ming Dynasty was rather weird, just like the ministers of the cabinet, and the left and right were only six grades. But this mere six-grade official, I don't know how many people will break their heads. Of course, in order to look good, those first and second assistants will hang the name of a scholar, and even hang the rank of young master, young master and so on.

However, his imperial history is a little embarrassing to say. He was an official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but he was an official of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate. In the Ming Dynasty, if you had a Nanjing prefix to the official's name, you would have to be a dwarf.

Because the capital was moved to Beijing during the Yongle period, Nanjing, as the capital of staying, also retained a set of the same team as Beijing. There are six ministries in Beijing, there are also six ministries in Nanjing, and there are Metropolitan Procuratorates in Beijing, so of course Nanjing must also have Metropolitan Procuratorates.

His imperial history is naturally inferior to those imperial histories of the Beijing Metropolitan Procuratorate. Although the grade is the same, if you say it, people will also say "oh-", it turns out that it is an official who is assigned to the elderly.

Liu Baichuan is particularly concerned about his identity, and he thinks of becoming an official in the real Metropolitan Procuratorate, even if his grade is reduced by half a grade, he is willing. This person, once he cares about something, he will be very sensitive, and it is easy to suffer from gains and losses.

For example, when he sees that others are disrespectful to him on weekdays, he will think, is it because I am an official in Nanjing, that kid looks down on me? When others are respectful to him, he will also wonder if this person is hypocritical to me, maybe laughing at me behind my back.

And when others are lukewarm to him, he is even more angry, this person must look down on me and dare to ignore me.

And yesterday's incident on the dock made him haunted him the most, he was disgraced in front of a group of local officials. These officials, but they are all turbid officials, all of them are filthy, their hearts are full of dirty thoughts, and their minds are full of lust, they will definitely laugh at me behind my back, and maybe they will publicize this matter.

It was also because of this incident that he had hardly slept all night, and how could he sleep again when he had lost such a big face? The clothes on his body had already been washed with pulp and scrubbed with soaphorn pancreas, but he always felt faintly smelly when he wore them.

Early the next morning, he came to the county office. He came to Changning County, after all, he had something to do. However, the autopsy is just a procedure, and he wants to finish it as soon as possible and pull it down as soon as possible.

"Greetings to Mishi-sama. Liu Baichuan took a large group of people into the county office, where did the people in Changning County dare to slack off, up to the county order, down to the six-room officials, all came out to greet them.

"This official came here this time to investigate the case of Li County's death, according to what you said, the previous county commander Li Baiqing fell into the water and died, and this official wants to confirm it. He looked at the arrival of all the people, and felt a little better. No matter what, this Changning County still respects him on the surface.

"Yes, Xiaguan and the others are already ready. Sun Shijie hurriedly stepped forward and said, Li Baiqing died suddenly, according to the usual practice, the imperial court will send someone down to check, they just put the body in the coffin, not buried. Besides, Li Baiqing is not a local, so even if he is buried, he will not be buried in Changning.

After a while, several officials carried a cedar coffin painted with black paint and placed it in the backyard of the county office, and they skillfully pried open the rivets and removed the coffin board.

As soon as the coffin board was removed, a disgusting stench rushed out. This smell reminded Liu Baichuan of the fart of the yellow skin yesterday, and his stomach couldn't help but roll a little.

It's hot now, and even if the body is well preserved, it's highly decomposed, and it smells good, and if you look into the coffin, it's seeping.

"My lord, you go outside for a while, and you can do something here. The smell was too rushing, Sun Shijie couldn't stand it, and of course Liu Baichuan couldn't stand it, so he immediately nodded and went out together.

From the servants behind him, came an honest-looking servant with a wooden box hanging from his shoulder, and it was obvious that he was a servant.

If you want to conduct an autopsy, of course, it can't be local to Changning, otherwise if you collude with the officials, you won't be able to find out why even if there is a wrong.

In a short time, the people in this courtyard were empty, leaving only a stinking coffin and busy working on the corpses.

The people of Changning County are not afraid of investigation, although Li Baiqing was indeed killed, no matter how you test it, he still drowned. There are no traces of other people's beatings and bindings on the body, no matter how you check, you can't find a problem. Of course, it's been so long, and even if there is a problem, it has long since rotted along with the flesh and blood.

After about a stick of incense, the man came out, holding a black hairpin in his hand. This hairpin is only seven or eight inches long, and at the end is an equally black ball, and it is impossible to tell whether it is a pearl or jade.

"Lord Yushi, I found a silver hairpin in the throat of the deceased, it is estimated that Lord Li Baiqing should have been pierced in the throat by a hairpin, and finally suffocated to death. The person who shot should be a master, and he should not be tall, he was stabbed from the bottom up, and it is estimated that he should be a woman. His face was heavy, and then he spoke.

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and all of them were full of shock.

"Impossible! You're cheating!" It was Zhao Cheng who spoke, he saw Li Baiqing drowned by the City God Master with his own eyes, how could it be that someone assassinated him with a hairpin.

"This hairpin has been placed in the body of the deceased for at least two months before it becomes like this, even if I can lie, can the evidence still lie?"

A servant from Changning County stepped forward, took the hairpin, and after looking at it for a while, he also nodded. But this is the case, this hairpin should be made of silver, only the outside is stained with rotten flesh and blood, it will be blackened, and it looks like it is definitely not newly put into the body of the deceased.

"That means that Li Xianling was killed?" Liu Baichuan opened his eyes and said in great surprise, he originally thought that this time it was just a routine, but he didn't expect that there was another hidden secret, who was so bold that he even dared to kill the officials of the imperial court?
