Chief Niu immediately grasped the important information, and a bold idea came out of his heart.

Could it be that the death of this ten thousand people was deliberately done?

He connected all the information he had in his possession, and he always felt that there was something wrong with the aunt who was brought in from outside the house.

I'm afraid the breakthrough point is still on this aunt.

But his official position is too small to arrest people with great fanfare.

So, we have to find another way to do this.

He struggled to figure out what to do at home.

The funeral passed quickly, and the weather was too hot to stop for too long.

Wan Jiabao sent the funeral to the cemetery, and after burying Wan Yuanwai, his family did not return, and came to Qingniu Town overnight.

He's coming back to sue again.

He sued his brother for murdering him, and he accused his brother of murdering his father.

And also brought witnesses.

This witness is the old family next to his father, Wan Changgui, the housekeeper of the Wanjia family.

Wan Changgui tearfully accused the eldest prince and Aunt Mei of murdering the master's life.

It turned out that on the night of Wan Yuanwai's death, the two brutes were messing around behind the mourning hall, and they happened to be bumped into by him.

Therefore, he has reason to suspect that the eldest prince and Aunt Mei are in cahoots and have harmed the master.

Since ancient times, adultery has led to death.

Naturally, Chief Niu also knows this truth.

He asked Wan Changgui if he knew what tonic their master often took?

Wan Changgui said: "There are tranquilizing pills, life-saving pills and ten perfect tonic pills. ”

As soon as Chief Niu heard about the Ten Perfection Tonic Pills, he hurriedly asked, "Where did you buy this medicine?" ”

Wan Changgui said: "I bought it from Dr. He of Hehuan Yang." ”

When Chief Niu heard that this matter had something to do with Dr. He, he thought that there was a legitimate reason for him to take care of it.

So, he sent someone to ask for Dr. He.

After Dr. He followed the people at the yamen, Mrs. Chen quickly got the news.

She hurriedly went to find Li Zheng and asked Li Zheng to help inquire about the news.

As soon as Li Zheng heard that Dr. He had been arrested, he couldn't sit still, so he quickly changed his clothes and went to Qingniu Town.

When they arrived at the official mansion, Chief Niu was hearing the matter.

Mrs. Chen and Li Zheng listened outside the yamen of the official mansion.

Although this is the season of hoeing, not many people come to the yamen to see the trial.

You haven't heard of any rare cases, so you're not interested.

Mrs. Chen and Li Zheng were both outside the door listening to the conversation inside.

Dr. He couldn't figure out what was going on, so he was inexplicably invited over.

Certainly not for tea.

Chief Niu sat at the door of the yamen and asked Dr. He about selling medicine.

Dr. He was surprised and asked why he asked this?

Chief Niu said that 10,000 people would have a good wind, and the people had already been buried.

Doctor He looked at Chief Niu in surprise, and said incredulously: "Didn't I let him cultivate his self-cultivation?" He didn't listen? ”

Saying that, he looked at Wan Changgui and said, "He came to buy medicine later, didn't you come with him?" I didn't sell him the medicine, don't you know? ”

Wan Changgui immediately said to Chief Niu: "What Dr. He said is true. ”

Chief Niu frowned, didn't sell him medicine? So how the hell did he die?

Dr. He asked, "Is the person already buried?" If he hadn't been buried, I might have been able to see why he died. ”

Niu Baochang choked, how could he forget about this?

It is long overdue to ask for an autopsy.

However, he is only the chief and does not have so much power.

Dr. He said: "Forget it, since the person is no longer there, the coffin can no longer be opened for autopsy."

However, I think we have other breakthroughs.

Although I didn't sell medicine to Wan Yuan that time, there were indeed many people who came to buy medicine later.

I was afraid that something would happen, so I got them all registered early.

Every person who comes to buy medicine, I have a record here. ”

He took out the record book on the spot and showed it to Chief Niu.

The chief of the cow took a look, and then according to what was recorded above, he sent someone to arrest him.

There are more people who come to buy medicine, and there are more than a dozen in total.

Spread across villages.

They were quickly caught.

In other words, which ordinary people are not afraid of being officials?

Even if he is not an official in their town, he is still an official.

Officials and universities can crush people to death, not to mention that they are just ordinary people?

They were caught in the yamen, and when they came, they kowtowed to the chief cow, saying that they were wronged and that they didn't know anything.

Niu Baochang's eyes widened, and he didn't ask anything, so they said they didn't know?

He glanced at the messenger in the yamen.

The messenger put the killing rod on the ground and pounded it.

The killing rod clanged, and the official shouted "mighty" in a low voice, but these people were frightened.

If you are beaten and killed, you will be killed in vain.

But they were so dignified at home, and they didn't do anything, so they were arrested and beaten, and they were not convinced.

One of them hurriedly kowtowed and said, "I'll recruit, I'll recruit, I'll recruit them all." ”

The chief of the cow was shocked, and the surroundings fell silent.

The chief cow said: "You say, take the initiative to admit it, you can avoid the pain of flesh and skin, if not, you can think for yourself." ”

The man trembled and said, "Last night, last night, I climbed the wall and went to Li San's house. ”

Niu Chengchun frowned and asked, "What did you do at his house?" ”

"Li San was drunk, and Li San's daughter-in-law stood on the wall and called me, and I ...... for a while I didn't hold back and flipped over. ”

The officials in the hall all hung their heads and laughed.

The people outside who were watching the excitement also burst into laughter.

Niu Baochang's face was also red, and he was startled, and he quieted down again.

"Who else wants to admit it?"

"I, I also recruit, I stole the tribute in the temple at the head of the village.

Your Excellency, please spare me, Grandpa Land didn't trouble me, his old man must have seen that my son was dying of hunger, so he allowed me to steal tribute. ”

"I, I, I also recruited, I stole the eggs from Aunt Liu's house."

"I stole the cucumbers in Damei's field."

"Widow Wang, she was voluntary, and I didn't go alone that day, the root pillars in the village also went, and we went to meet."

Niu Bao's face flushed.

It's all about stealing chickens and dogs, and there are some dirty things that are hard to talk about.

However, the fact that they don't confess to themselves is not a trivial matter in his opinion.

If you dare to steal the things in the temple, you will get into trouble sooner or later.

So he made a note of him, and told him to go back and make up for the tribute, and not to steal it again.

The man kowtowed again and again and agreed.

The egg thief was convicted of stealing a few eggs and returned them double.

There are also those who go to the fields to steal other people's vegetables, and there are also those who steal pears from other people's trees.

The chief cow asked them to go back and return it to others.

If you have already eaten it, you have to pay for other people's eggs or rice.

As for the one who climbed over the wall, Chief Niu didn't allow him to mention it again, and he wasn't allowed to climb over the wall again in the future.

The man kowtowed in thanksgiving.

As for the one who went to find the widow Wang, Chief Niu did not sentence him directly.

In these days, widows have no men, and I am afraid that basic survival will be in question.

Therefore he did not say anything about the widow.
