Chapter 6: The Fourth Doubt (Part I)

Xinye County Ya.

In the side hall of the second hall, a Lang Zhong was dressing Xu Zun with medicine.

Zhao Yu, the head catcher, was worried that Xu Zun was seriously injured, so he sent someone to send him back to the yamen and invited Lang Zhong to treat him.

At this moment, Xu Zun's mind was still in chaos.

Although he is very adaptable, he is still a little uncomfortable in the face of a strange world and an unfamiliar self.

What's more, I experienced a thrilling murder just now, and I almost became a murderer!

If it weren't for his alertness, I'm afraid he would have been beaten to death by the masses by now!

Recalling all kinds of experiences, Xu Zun couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

I have been cautiously undercover for so many years, and I have never had a problem with all kinds of criminals, but I didn't expect that in the end, I still died in an accident.

Therefore, life is impermanent, so let's drag and cherish it!

Of course, he understands very well that if you want to drag, strength still comes first. It is imperative that he figure out his situation and put himself in a good position.

What he is most worried about now is whether the scandal between himself and Chun Niang will reach the ears of Miss Shen or his father-in-law?

Although Zhao Yu is quite reliable, his words are terrifying, and I am afraid that rumors about him and Chun Niang have already spread to the public.

If you annoy your father-in-law, you can be regarded as a county lieutenant!

But......

I don't know why, when I think of the case of You Dalang killing his wife, Xu Zun still feels that something is not right.

In the memory he obtained, he had contact with this You Dalang.

This man is shrewd and capable, with a flexible mind, and he keeps the silk village in good order, and his business is thriving, and his business is becoming more and more prosperous.

How could such a shrewd person do such an impulsive thing?

Thinking of this, Xu Zun worked hard to pick up his memories and retrieved all the information about You Dalang in his mind.

Who knows, as soon as he learned something about You Dalang, he was taken aback and stood up from his chair!

That's not right!

The case...... Something is wrong!?

"Your Excellency...... Hey......"

Lang Zhong was dressing him, and most of the powder suddenly spilled off.

Xu Zun couldn't care about it, and said hurriedly: "Okay, don't worry about it, you can go!" ”

After speaking, without waiting for Lang Zhong's reaction, he strode towards the door.

It turned out that Xu Zun had discovered new suspicions through his memories, and now he was going to the prison immediately to interrogate that You Dalang in person!

However, as soon as he arrived at the door, he almost collided with an old man in a green official uniform.

This person was also in a hurry, panicked, and suddenly met, and he was also shocked!

"Oops, hey!" The old man stood firm, and after seeing Xu Zun clearly, he covered his heart and shouted, "County Lieutenant Xu, it turned out to be you!" ”

Xu Zun hurriedly searched his memory and found that this person was Liu Zhang, the chief secretary of the county government.

The main bookkeeper is the assistant in charge of the clerical work, which is equivalent to the secretary of the county magistrate.

However, in a small county like Xinye County, the chief secretary often wears many hats, and also supervises accounts, household registration, files and other affairs, which is a relatively important position.

Master Liu is nearly sixty years old, and has been the chief bookkeeper for most of his life from Xinye County, and his business ability is quite strong.

"Master Liu!" Xu Zun learned from the ancients and hugged his fists to salute.

"County Lieutenant Xu, I'm sorry, I'm in a bit of a hurry!" Who knows, Master Liu was even more anxious than Xu Zun, and directly waved his hand and said, "Let's go back and talk again!" ”

With that, he took a step to leave.

"Huh? Wait a minute? Xu Zun suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked, "Master Liu, can you show me the household registration information of the shopkeeper of Silk Village?" I have a case......"

"Shopkeeper You?" Master Liu blinked, "Are you talking about that You Dalang?" ”

"Yes!"

"You Dalang moved to Xinye County in Taikang 6, he is 35 years old, and he is from Qingyuan, Songzhou." Master Liu replied casually.

"Damn, do you remember this?" Xu Zun was surprised.

"Of course! It's not that you don't know," Master Liu's face was arrogant, "The old man never forgets, all the household registration information in this county is in my head!" ”

"Awesome!" Xu Zun gave a thumbs up and asked again, "That'...... And what about his daughter-in-law? ”

"You Dalang's wife's name is Chunniang, and she is also from Songzhou." Master Liu replied, "I came with You Dalang back then, but I haven't settled down so far, and the specific information is unknown." ”

"Oh? Why? Xu Zun was surprised.

"I don't know!" Master Liu replied simply.

"If you don't have a household registration, you are not a legal couple? Is there a marriage license? Xu Zun looked at Master Liu's old-fashioned face, and asked instead, "Why did they come all the way to Xinye County to open a silk village?" ”

This time, Master Liu's answer was even more straightforward: "You can ask You Dalang!" ”

"emmm......" Xu Zun complained.

However, getting this information can be regarded as something to gain, which makes him even more eager to interrogate You Dalang.

It seems that there is indeed another mystery behind this wife murder case!

Who knows, at this moment, a man in a red official uniform walked at the door.

This person has a face like a crown of jade, a dignified appearance, and is very handsome.

"Jiying?" The man came up to him and asked, "I just heard about you!" How's that, it's okay, right? ”

Xu Zun recognized that this person was the number one of Xinye County, the county commander - Qiu Yongnian!

Qiu Yongnian was a jinshi in the last imperial examination, and before coming to Xinye County to take office, he had entered the Hanlin Academy for practical training.

As we all know, the Jinshi who have entered the Hanlin Academy are not ordinary, and they will definitely be entrusted with important tasks by the imperial court in the future.

This small Xinye County is just a springboard for him, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future!

"It's okay, it's okay," Xu Zun replied with a kiss from the ancients, "Thanks to your concern, it's no big deal." ”

"Lord Prefectural Order!" At this time, Liu Zhang, the chief bookkeeper, said to Qiu County Ling, "The lower official still has important business, so he will leave first!" ”

"Oh," Qiu County replied, "Please!" ”

Master Liu arched his hand to Xu Zun again, and then exited the side hall and walked out.

Ay?

Xu Zun wondered, just now he obviously saw Master Liu coming in from outside in a hurry, obviously wanting to enter the house, but now why did he return the same way?

What is this old man busy with? Is it dementia?

Qiu Xianling was also puzzled, and asked Xu Zun: "Why is it that Master Liu is a little absent-minded?" What's wrong? ”

Xu Zun shook his head, expressing his confusion.

At this time, that Lang Zhong had already packed up his things and left, and only Xu Zun and Qiu Xianling were left in the side hall.

"Ji Ying, it's okay if you're okay!" Qiu Xianling turned the topic to the case and said excitedly, "This You Dalang is really bold!" Murdering his wife, framing others, and leading the crowd to besiege the court officials, it is really bold and unpunished! ”

As he spoke, Xu Zun hurriedly probed the details about the county magistrate.

Fortunately, maybe it's because of the face of the prospective old man, this Qiu County Commander has always taken good care of himself, and the two have a good personal relationship.

In addition, because he was born as a child, this Qiu County Commander is easy and open-minded, honest and honest, deeply loved by the people, and is a rare good official.

"Fortunately, you saw through his trick in time, otherwise, it would really be impossible to clean up today!" As he spoke, Qiu County Commander had already entered the hall.

Although Xu Zun was in a hurry, he still followed into the house, after all, he was his own leader.

"Jiying! I've heard it all," Qiu Xianling cast an approving look, "Your bravery and discerning performance today is really impressive!" Hehehehehe......"

"Prizes! Overpraise! Xu Zun clenched his fists, his face perfunctory.

"Huh?" Qiu Xianling noticed that Xu Zun was different, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong today, why do you look absent-minded?" ”

"My lord! Hmm......" Seeing this, Xu Zun had no choice but to say what was in his heart, "I think that the case of You Dalang's murder of his wife is still suspicious, and I will try him in person now!" ”

"Oh?" Qiu Xianling was surprised, "Ji Ying, I heard from the officials, didn't that You Dalang already confess?" What's in doubt? ”

"Your Excellency!" Xu Zunyan said, "I think there seems to be another situation behind this case!" ”

"Really?" Qiu Xianling was even more curious, "What is the situation?" ”

Originally, Xu Zun wanted to wait until the truth was ascertained, but now that the county order asked, he no longer kept it.

"My lord," he held out four fingers, "I think there are at least four doubts in this case!" ”
