Chapter 370: Key Clues

Early the next morning,

Li Chang'an's courtyard welcomed two guests.

"Grass people Niu Dachuan (Gou Ermao), meet Lord Li......"

Niu Dachuan took Gou Ermao and knelt down to Li Chang'an, but was quickly supported by Li Changan.

"You don't have to be polite, you came here so early, you haven't eaten yet, right?"

Li Changan took the steamed bun that had just been hot and stuffed it into the hands of the two, and took one himself, and said with a smile,

"Let's talk while we eat."

Watch Li Changan skillfully tear off the steamed bun and throw it into his mouth.

Niu Dachuan and Gou Ermao glanced at each other, and the restraint eased a little.

Those dog officials don't eat steamed buns like this.

"Big, my lord......" Gou Ermao plucked up his courage and said, "I came here to think, I wanted to ......"

"Don't rush, speak slowly." Li Changan smiled and encouraged.

"I'm Gou Ermao from the east of the county, and I used to sell steamed buns." Gou Ermao nervously held the steamed bun in his hand,

Li ...... Li Bantou bought steamed buns from me before. ”

"I bought a couple more than usual."

Li Changan asked at the right time, "Do you think he bought the amount of food for two people?" ”

Gou Ermao nodded hurriedly, "Well, when he took out the copper coin, he also dropped a piece of broken silver." ”

"Our county is not rich, especially those officials in the county government, who basically use copper coins."

"That's why I remember it very clearly."

"There are still words on the broken silver, not like melted broken silver, but knocked straight from the silver ingot."

Li Changan raised his eyebrows, "What he should have taken is official silver, and it has not been smelted and used directly." ”

Niu Dachuan on the side said, "At that time, Ermao mentioned it to me, and I thought it was strange, this Li Bantou didn't seem to have any other way to make money except for Yulu on weekdays." ”

"How can there be broken silver?"

"Did you see that man?" Li Changan asked.

Gou Ermao glanced at Niu Dachuan, and then said with some hesitation, "I'm not very sure either." ”

"The next day, a man came to buy steamed buns, and the broken silver used directly was also printed on them."

Li Changan's eyes suddenly froze, "Have you seen that person's appearance clearly?" ”

Gou Ermao recalled,

"The man has a county accent, he is about the same height as me, and his appearance is very ordinary, but his eyes are a little small, and there is a black mole on the bridge of his nose, and he ...... He walked a little lame and seemed to have a bad left foot. ”

When Li Changan heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and finally found the second clue besides Li Bantou.

He hurriedly asked, "Anything else?" ”

Gou Ermao shook his head, "That's what I know." ”

"Well, you two have helped me a lot." Li Changan patted the two of them on the shoulder, with a slightly relaxed expression on his face, and said with a smile, "I will go to find this person as soon as possible." ”

"As long as the truth is found out, I will definitely give Lord Zhang justice!"

Gou Ermao and Niu Dachuan hurriedly bent down and bowed.

Li Changan sent the two out of the hospital.

found that outside the courtyard, there were many people standing.

After seeing Gou Ermao and Niu Dachuan being sent out, these people breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Changan asked in surprise, "Folks, do you have anything to look for me?" ”

The old man who had chatted with Li Changan before stepped forward, arched his hand at Li Changan, and explained apologetically, "Don't hide it from Master Li, we sent Ermao and Dachuan over." ”

"The two of them came to find Master Li with the determination to die, and even prepared for the aftermath."

"I hope Master Li doesn't blame ......"

When Li Changan heard this, he was stunned for a while.

The eyes that looked at Gou Ermao and Niu Dachuan also became extremely complicated.

These two people have always been worried that they will be deceived and will fall into the net.

But even so, he still had to use his own life, just in exchange for the opportunity to help Zhang Xianling get justice.

Even if it's just a small chance.

At this moment, Li Changan's heart was trembling.

What kind of person is Zhang Weimin?

How could the people do such a thing for him?

Even at the cost of his own life.

This kind of public opinion is truly breathtaking.

Carefully observing Li Changan's people, he found that his eyes were wrong, and he was so frightened that he wanted to salute one by one.

Gou Ermao and Niu Dachuan hurriedly knelt down.

Li Changan came back to his senses, hurriedly supported the two, and then clasped his fists at the other people and said,

"Rest assured, I will do my best to find the real murderer of Zhang Xianling."

……

county government,

Feng Budo was just about to follow the large army to the field to start a new day of field exploration, but was stopped by an errand officer.

"Secretary Feng, the Senator would like you to come over."

Feng Budo looked at Song Siren and Zeng Shicai next to him, a little strange, "Only call me alone?" ”

The officer said, "Yes, the Senator is waiting for you at the house. ”

Feng Budo nodded, gestured to the person beside him, and followed the messenger towards the house where Li Changan was.

Zeng Shicai and Song Siren glanced at each other,

"This is the progress of Zhang County's case, and you want to start investigating the case again?"

"Who knows? It is not impossible to simply ask for some clues. ”

"But even if the key clues are found, is there enough time? The next day will be a public trial. ”

……

Feng Budo came to the house, clasped his fists and saluted, "Senator." ”

Li Changan picked up a piece of paper on the table and handed it to Feng Budo, "Go to the county town immediately and find this person." ”

Feng Budo looked at the facial features written on the paper, and couldn't help frowning, "Senator...... Trying to find someone in the county is like looking for a needle in a haystack......"

"Xia Guan can't guarantee that he can find this person in a short time."

Li Changan nodded, "This is natural, do your best, you can find it in the county guard and the county mansion." ”

"Understood." Feng Budo immediately hugged his fists.

"Wait a minute." Li Changan took out another piece of paper from the table.

Feng Budo took it and looked at it, stunned, "Big, my lord...... This is......? ”

Li Changan smiled and patted Feng Budo's shoulder, "Your reward." ”

"Remuneration?" Feng Budo glanced at the paper in his hand, and unconsciously showed a hint of surprise, but after hesitating for a while, he still returned it to Li Changan,

"Senator, Senator, how can you ask for any reward for handling cases?"

"Besides, this poem is too precious, Xia, Xia Guan can't ask for it!"

Li Changan pushed the paper back again, "My literature has been abolished, how can I write a good poem?" ”

"This poem for you may be able to help you take another step forward in your literary path."

Feng Budo was caught in a dilemma.

Taibai poetry, who doesn't want it?

At least it is also the existence of the top five on the Wensheng list.

I'm afraid that except for the top powers of the three rank Confucians and above, there is no other scribe who does not want.

But it's a bit of a shame.

Is this senator trying to win himself over?

Li Changan stuffed the paper with poems into Feng Budo's hand, and said with a half-smile and half-seriousness,

"Take my benefits, but you have to do things well."

"This man...... Be sure to find it! ”

Feng Budo gritted his teeth, Taibai's poems were too precious, it was really difficult to refuse, after all, he still put away Li Changan's poems, and then said solemnly,

"Please rest assured, the lower officials will find this person as soon as possible."

With that, he quickly left the house.

The next moment,

Two people walked out of the house and saluted Li Changan with fists.

Li Changan said, "Let the spy troops in the county town keep an eye on this person......"

"Yes, my lord." The two spies also quietly left the house.

There was no one else in the yard,

Li Changan sat back in his chair, pulled out a new piece of paper, and began to transcribe the second poem that was not written on the Wenchang stele.

These poems are the Gu of his poems.

The ...... that just sent out It's the first one.

……

Just when Feng Budo left Zewu County on a cloud boat and rushed to the county seat,

Another cloud boat landed in Yaya, Zewu County.

A thin old man with a white beard and a coarse cloth shirt walked out of the cloud boat.

All those who saw this thin old man were shocked, and then quickly bowed and saluted.

In addition to Qin Zhenliang, who didn't know where, even Lian Yuesong, Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple, after seeing this thin old man, also hugged his fists and saluted,

"I've seen the sacrificial wine."

The thin old man also returned the salute, "Even my lord, I don't know where Uncle Zhong Yong is now?" ”
