Not long after, in silence, the carriage drove into the county seat of Xianwei.

There are not many pedestrians on the streets of the city, except for a few shops, most of the houses are tightly closed, and you can't help but feel desolate when you look at it.

Jiang Ji retracted his gaze, and there were some doubts in his heart: "Why is this city so deserted? Doesn't it mean that the territory of Qin State is quite good? Why don't you see many people?"

"Yu doesn't know, why don't you let the guards investigate?"

Jiang Ji nodded.

Moments later, the guards who had gone to inquire about the news returned.

"Back to the two sons, the Liang family in the west of the city gave porridge outside the city, and also recruited guards, so it attracted many people to go. ”

Feng Yu thought for a while, and said: "This Liang Jiayu has heard of it a little, but this Xian prestige clan is slightly famous in the entire Qin State, and there have been many generals in the ancestors, and there are many officials with more than 2,000 stones, and there is still one person in the Liang family who serves as a county guard in other states. ”

"And the reputation of the Liang family has always been very good, and the prestige in Xianwei is very high, and it usually benefits the county, and it will also help the county in the year of the disaster, so if someone is appointed as the county commander here, they will go to visit the Liang family. ”

Jiang Ji bowed slightly, looking at the entire Daewoo Empire, there are many big families like the Liang family, maybe many of them don't have as much influence as the Liang family, but they are enough to influence all kinds of things in the place where they are.

There are even some domineering families who are rampant and domineering in the locality, and the local governors dare not manage it at all, and some of those who dare to manage it have also lost their lives, and they are real local snakes.

If the local governor wants to govern the place, he must either obtain the support of these entrenched clans, or subdue the clans with strong means, or he has a strong background in strength.

Those who do not have these conditions can only choose to cower and avoid, and leave after the term of office is up, or be targeted by the family, feel aggrieved and resentful but helpless, and finally slip away, and may also lose their lives.

Most of the families cherish feathers, they have passed the stage of bloody accumulation, but those who have recently risen to the wealth, or those who started as merchants, are prone to rampant in the countryside and county.

"Childe, shall we go and have a look?"

Jiang Ji shook his head, with his current status, he is not suitable to join in the fun, it is easy to make extraneous branches, it is better to find the goal of this trip.

"No need, just go to the Wind Hall. ”

"No. ”

The carriage moved again, perhaps because it gradually went deeper into the county seat of Xianwei, and the number of people gradually increased.

"That's a bit of a weather!"

Jiang Ji looked at the scene outside the carriage and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Yes......"

"Murdered!"

Feng Yu's words were interrupted by a scream, followed by a large cacophony of chaotic sounds.

Feng Yu lifted the curtain and leaned half of his body out, while asking the guard, "What's going on?"

"There was a murder ahead, and no one dared to stop the murderer, and he had already left. ”

"I thought Feng Jun's words were a bit exaggerated, but I didn't expect that in fact, it was even more than that, in broad daylight, someone dared to kill people in this city, and then calmly walked away. ”

Jiang Ji got out of the carriage and prepared to go to the front to have a look.

If he was just an ordinary person, then he would naturally be too lazy to care about this kind of thing, but he was now the king of Qin, the nominal lord of the Qin State, and now in front of him, someone ignored the law and killed people on the street, he naturally couldn't treat it as if he didn't see it.

As the saying goes, the butt determines the head, and depending on the position, the behavior will naturally be different.

With the guards clearing the way, Jiang Ji quickly passed through the lively crowd and came to the front of the deceased.

The others looked at the battle of Jiang Ji and the others, and consciously got out of the way.

Jiang Ji raised his eyes and found that the deceased had a big waist and a round waist, and at first glance he was powerful, and at this time there was a big hole in his chest, which was constantly bleeding out, forming a pool of blood on the ground.

Moreover, there was a pork stall in front of the deceased, and looking at his dress, it is not difficult to see that this man was a butcher. Pi Phi Reading.com

"Who is this butcher Liu who is not good to provoke, but he wants to provoke that Zhao Shuo, isn't that looking for death?"

"The dog looks down on people, then Zhao Shuo's old lady came to buy meat, he bullied others because he lost money in the gambling scene before, and now the son of the other family comes to stand up for his mother, and he deserves to die. ”

"Then it's not a crime to death, right? It would be good to teach a lesson, this Liu Butcher still has elderly parents to support in his family. ”

Speaking of which, Butcher Liu's newly married wife heard that she was very handsome, and I don't know if there is a chance to kiss Fang Ze. ”

"I was widowed just a few months after I got married, and I will definitely remarry, I don't know who such a handsome little lady will be cheaper. ”

“......”

Jiang Ji took all the surrounding discussions into his ears, and soon understood the cause and effect of the matter.

Generally speaking, the people around him feel that Butcher Liu died unjustly, after all, the Daewoo Empire advocates filial piety, and Zhao Shuo's actions are a bit excessive, but most people can understand.

The mother was bullied, if he didn't take revenge, he would be a son of man in vain, this is the mainstream value of the Daewoo Empire, but Zhao Shuo's move is undoubtedly a violation of the law, even if he escapes now, if he knows his identity, he will definitely be wanted.

It didn't take long for the thieves and jailers who arrived to inspect the body and gather relevant information.

The thief and the jailer are the more important judicial officials in the county, and each has its own duties.

The thief Cao ranks a hundred stones, and the main thief is responsible for the thief's affairs, that is, he is responsible for the thief's related matters.

The jailer is in charge of lawsuits and prisons.

At this time, the thief Cao was responsible for inspecting the case, that is, investigating and collecting evidence.

Usually the jailers will not come at this time, which means that when they receive the news, they already know the general situation of the matter, and they need the jailers to go and seal the family property of the criminals.

"Let's go. ”

Since someone is in charge of this matter, Jiang Ji doesn't have to interfere, so naturally he doesn't have to continue to stay.

"Childe, please stay. ”

Jiang Ji turned around and saw that it was the thief Cao who shouted at them.

"What did the thief call me?"

The thief Cao is a middle-aged man, wearing a black official uniform, with a tall posture, a square face, small eyes, and a short beard under his chin.

"Childe has an extraordinary temperament, and the guards on the left and right are all majestic people, presumably with a noble status, I don't know why I stopped here?"

"Seeing the crowd gathering, it's just a lively picture, could it be that the thief Cao suspects me of having something to do with this murder?"

"How dare you be idle, Childe laughed. ”

Feng Xian saw that Feng Yu beside Jiang Ji showed impatience, and he didn't continue to talk about it, and said his purpose.

"I want to ask Childe for a favor. ”

"You and I don't know each other, please ask me to help? Don't you want to ask me to help you catch the prisoner?"

"What Childe said, although it is not true, it is not far away. ”

Feng Xian stubbornly said: "The prisoner escaped after committing the murder, and his family property will be sealed according to the law, but this Zhao Shuo is the head of the light man in the county, and he is afraid that he will resist stubbornly, and his subordinates are short of manpower, so he is to turn to Gongzi for help." ”

"Although Childe can rest assured, when the time comes, he will definitely inform the county order of the matter, and the county order will definitely be rewarded. ”

Jiang Ji couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, the county order praised him?

"The thief Cao can completely explain the situation, let the county lieutenant send the county guard to help, how can he turn to me, an outsider?"

"Gongzi doesn't know, now there are thieves everywhere, and the county guards need to guard all parts of the city, plus the Liang family is now giving porridge, and the county guards are needed to maintain order and prevent sabotage, so the county is short of manpower. ”

And at this time, not long before the crime, if the prisoner's property was not sealed as soon as possible, maybe he would have fled with his family property at that time, and he would have the courage to ask for help from his son. ”
