Chapter 131: Murder
In the early morning, there were people outside the door of the Li family's courtyard.
The leader of the Weinan County Ya was Zhao Shiyun, the county lieutenant.
Zhao Shiyun had a very humble attitude, standing honestly outside the door and waiting for the subordinates to pass the word, and the few errand officers brought in behind him were even more arrogant and did not dare to come out.
Steward Song is a clever man, and he knows the life of Wu Shaolang very well.
I went to the backyard early in the morning to spread the news that there were guests visiting, and I was definitely not happy, and I would tear down half of the backyard with the anger of the five young men.
So Zhao Shiyun waited honestly outside the door, and Steward Song didn't make any moves.
waited until the third pole of the day, and estimated that Wu Shaolang was almost time to get up, and then Steward Song asked the maid to pass it on.
Steward Song's decision was very correct, and it didn't take long for the maid to report with a look of grievance, and the fifth young man was still lying in bed, and only said one word, "Get out".
I don't know whether to let the maid who disturbed him lie in bed roll, or let the guest outside the door roll.
The maid didn't dare to ask again, and came back with a disgraced face.
Although the name of the Song steward is "steward", he does not dare to do much, and he does not know where to learn the practice of the old oilman in the officialdom, so he simply does not send off or welcome the guests, and simply lets the guests wait outside the door.
Zhao Shiyun had to wait outside the door for an extra hour.
An hour later, Li Qinzai finally didn't stay in bed, got up, dressed, washed and ate, and then came to the front yard to see Zhao Shiyun.
Zhao Shiyun behaved sincerely and fearfully in front of Li Qinzai, as if Li Qinzai's cough could scare him out of a cold sweat, not at all like a murderer who killed his parents.
Li Qinzai's eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he didn't look awake, but the corner of his eyes looked at Zhao Shiyun quickly.
Well, look at the face...... Nothing to see at all.
Li Qinzai has not yet cultivated the Tao of being able to determine good and evil and loyalty based on his face alone, looking at Zhao Shiyun's appearance, it is purely the appearance of a subordinate official trembling on thin ice in front of his superiors.
The identity of the British grandson has really made Li Qinzai a lot of light, if it is an ordinary young eunuch or other five-grade official, I am afraid that Zhao Shiyun will not be so respectful and excessive, it is completely Li Tao's name that shocked him.
After greeting a few words without smiling, Zhao Shiyun said what he meant.
The intention was to take Xu Yuanqing away and bring him to justice.
Xu Yuanqing is a wanted criminal in Weinan County, and he killed his parents, this person is very dangerous, and the young man of the Li family must not raise a tiger for trouble.
A lot of righteous and awe-inspiring words were said, and the meaning was expressed very clearly.
Li Qinzai said a few words, and suddenly said: "I heard that Xu Yuanqing has a grievance, and Zhao County Lieutenant is also involved in this case, according to the rules, Zhao County Lieutenant should avoid suspicion, right?" ”
Zhao Shiyun's expression remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "The words of the murderer, Li Shaolang must not be trusted, the lower officials have already found out that it is Xu Yuanqing who is addicted to murder and actually did the great rebellion of killing his parents, this case has been investigated clearly, and the evidence is ironclad, if Li Shaolang does not believe it, the lower officials can send someone to send the evidence of this case." ”
Li Qinzai waved his hand and said with a smile: "If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government." I'm not an official of the Weinan County Ya, and I'm not qualified to meddle in the case of the county Ya, so I won't look at the evidence or anything. ”
Zhao Shiyun smiled wryly.
You still know that you can't meddle in the affairs of the county government, since you know, why don't you hurry up and hand over that Xu Yuanqing?
Who knew that Li Qinzai suddenly added leisurely: "It stands to reason that I should hand over people to you, but ...... Unfortunately, I saw Xu Yuanqing pitiful yesterday, and I have found someone to write down the petition and submit it to the Yongzhou Thorn History Mansion. ”
"Before the Assassin Mansion reviews this case, County Lieutenant Zhao is afraid that it is not suitable to meet Xu Yuanqing, right? After all, you are also suspected of killing your parents. ”
Zhao Shiyun's face changed, and then he quickly returned to normal, and said with a smile: "The lower official body is not afraid of the shadow slanting, and he is not afraid of the review of the assassination mansion." ”
"But Xu Yuanqing is really not suitable to stay in your mansion, why not let the lower officials take people away, and the lower officials promise that they will not harm his life, otherwise in front of everyone's eyes, wouldn't the lower officials be truthful?"
Li Qinzai squinted at him and said with a smile: "County Lieutenant Zhao, it seems that something is not normal for you to take Xu Yuanqing away in such a hurry, should you really have the idea of killing people and killing people?" To tell the truth, if you kill Xu Yuanqing, I have no evidence to prove that you killed the person, and I really can't do anything about you. ”
Zhao Shiyun's eyelids jumped, but he still said respectfully: "Xia Guan has no such intention, Xia Guan is a county lieutenant in charge of a county's criminal name, how can he know the law and break the law?" If Li Shaolang doesn't believe it, how about sending a subordinate to follow Xu Yuanqing day and night? ”
Li Qinzai was impatient, his head tilted, and his two big nostrils looked at Zhao Shiyun deeply, looking at his life like a black hole of time.
"County Lieutenant Zhao, do you think I'm bargaining with you? I said whatever I wanted, if you have the guts, you will snatch people from my house, if you don't have the guts, go back and honestly wait for the assassin's mansion to send someone to review the case. ”
Zhao Shiyun's face changed several times, and finally took a deep breath, and got up to say goodbye with a smile.
Staring at Zhao Shiyun leaving, Li Qinzai's eyes did not wave.
Under the pillars in the front yard, Xu Yuanqing flashed out and bowed to Li Qinzai: "Thank you for saving the nobleman, the noble man saved the villain again." ”
Li Qinzai said lazily: "Don't thank me, to be honest, I actually don't want to get involved in this matter, but who told me that I have already interfered, I can't give up halfway." ”
"Besides, within the scope of my ability, I don't mind doing a few good deeds, which can be regarded as accumulating virtue for my son and saving a little blessing."
Xu Yuanqing continued to salute: "The noble man is noble, Xu Yuanqing swears that he will repay in this life." ”
Li Qinzai was puzzled: "Were you a scumbag who often hooked up with women from good families before?" How do I think you swear like eating cabbage, just say it casually. ”
"Don't do this to me, I don't believe you're just out there."
…………
Zhao Shiyun walked out of the gate of the Li family's courtyard, his face quickly became gloomy, and he turned his head inadvertently, looking at the hanging lintel of the Li family's courtyard, Zhao Shiyun's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
A waiting errand came up and said in a low voice: "County lieutenant, the Li family's gentleman refuses to hand over?" ”
Zhao Shiyun snorted and said coldly: "I really thought it was a character, but it wasn't stained with the light of the British public." It is said that he has submitted a petition to the Yongzhou Assassin's Mansion and asked the Assassin's Mansion to review the case. ”
The messenger hurriedly said: "County lieutenant, if you refuse to hand over the person and hand over the paper to the Assassin's Mansion, I'm afraid the matter will be in trouble." ”
Zhao Shiyun sneered: "It's okay, I asked the outlaws who came from Shandong to do it, their methods are very clean, and they did it seamlessly, and the Assassin Mansion sent people down to investigate it, and in the end, it was still over." ”
The messenger hesitated, "Those outlaws ......"
"I paid a lot of money, and besides, I think I will use them again, after all, there is still a remnant of the Xu family that has not been eliminated......"
"Xu Yuanqing has shouted that everyone knows about the case, and many people know that the county lieutenant is suspected of being involved in the case, if Xu Yuanqing is not dead in vain, how can the county lieutenant deal with himself?"
Zhao Shiyun laughed, spread his hands and said, "What about the evidence?" The government is handling cases based on evidence, and there is no evidence to tarnish my innocence, who would dare to do this kind of thing? Even if someone dares to question me, as long as I can't produce evidence, the lawsuit will be brought to the criminal department. ”
The officer still had a worried look on his face when he heard this, but he also eased it a lot.
"County Lieutenant Gaoming, what should we do next?"
Zhao Shiyun glanced back at the gate of the Li family's courtyard again, and said with a gloomy face: "I can't afford to mess with the people of the Li family, can't I afford to mess with Xu Yuanqing?" ”
"Turn around and let those outlaws come over and stay outside Zhuangzi, as long as Xu Yuanqing dares to go out of the door of the Li family, it will be his death!"
Saying that, Zhao Shiyun glanced at several servants with a cold gaze, and said: "The case of the Xu family, you are all involved, it is best to keep your mouth shut, even if the assassin is re-examined, you must not let go, otherwise, everyone will be killed." ”
Several of the officers had a cold back, and hurriedly nodded in response.
At night, there is silence inside and outside Ganjingzhuang, and only a few barking dogs and chickens can be heard occasionally in the village.
When everyone had fallen asleep, several vigorous figures slowly walked out of the mountain forest outside the village.
The first one was burly, with a fierce face, knotted muscles, and a deep scar on his face.
Staring at Zhuangzi for a long time, the leader spoke hoarsely, and said coldly: "From today onwards, our brother will stay outside Zhuangzi, as long as the surnamed Xu takes a step out of the Li family's courtyard, we will kill him." ”
"County Lieutenant Zhao said, don't live your mouth, you must see the corpse, but don't be too public, especially don't be discovered by the people of the Li family, otherwise it will anger the person of the Li family."
