"I think there's something wrong."

After coming out of the county government and getting into the carriage, Xu Yan said in a deep voice.

The county magistrate was also admitted to the imperial examination all the way, and he should be very clear about the punishment, how could Qin Qian let him die before he confessed? Even if it is dead, the body should be put in Yizhuang first, and should not be thrown into a mass grave, unless it is to cover up something.

Mr. Xu Er's face was heavy, "Let's go back and talk about it." ”

The two went back and told the old gentleman the words of the county master word for word.

After listening to this, the old gentleman stroked his beard and groaned.

"Second grandfather, uncle!"

The shouts were accompanied by the sound of footsteps, and several people looked out, and Song Wanyue came quickly with Xu in her arms.

"Second uncle, eldest brother."

Xu also shouted.

After shouting, he smiled and said, "I guess you're almost there, and you're frightened when you hear the news of my grandfather's poisoning, right?" ”

"It's not ......"

Looking at Xu's smile, Xu Yan also smiled, "The moment I heard Song Si say that my grandfather was poisoned, I felt that the sky had fallen, but fortunately, my grandfather was fine." ”

"Of course my great-grandfather will be fine, he will live a long life and enjoy the joy of family."

Xu Yan echoed, "Yue'er is right, grandfather wants to live a long life and enjoy the joy of family." ”

Song Wanyue nodded her little head, "It will definitely be." ”

The crowd was amused by her.

The atmosphere in the house is relaxed.

"The second uncle and the eldest brother will sit for a while, and Yue'er and I will go to cook."

Mr. Xu Er gave Xu Yan a look when he heard this, Xu Yan understood, and said, "I haven't seen Yue'er for a long time, I want to talk to her well, don't be in a hurry to cook, Wan'er, you go over to your mother first and tell your mother that I'm here, and I'll go over to see her later." ”

Xu Shi did not doubt that he had him, and turned to go out.

The room was quiet.

The three of them looked at Song Wanyue.

The old gentleman spoke, "Yue'er, you didn't let me see Qin Qian yesterday, did you already know that he was dead?" ”

Song Wanyue restrained her smile, "Yes, before you woke up, he couldn't stand the torture and died, I was afraid that you would blame yourself, so I didn't tell you." ”

"Have you ever confirmed that you are really dead?"

Song Wanyue was slightly stunned.

"Qingping County is not an ignorant and ignorant person, even if he is in a hurry to make him confess, he will not kill people, let alone throw the body to a mass grave without notifying his family, unless he doesn't want an official career, so Qin Qian must not die."

"Father means that the Qingping County Commander wants to shield Qin Qian?"

The old gentleman's words fell, and Mr. Xu Er asked eagerly.

The old gentleman's voice was slightly deep, "I naturally don't dare to do this just with a Qingping County Order, it should be ......"

The old gentleman paused, "It should be the two who live in the county office." ”

Mr. Xu Er stood up in shock.

Xu Yan was equally shocked, "Why are they doing this? ”

"For Yue'er's business."

The two couldn't believe it.

Song Wanyue pursed her lips, but her heart rose with sincere admiration, just one night's work, the old gentleman thought of these, worthy of being a famous Confucian all over the world.

"How bold they are!"

Mr. Xu Er came back to his senses and was angry.

My father was so old, if the poison was really harmful to the body, my father would have ...... by now

"This is just my father's speculation, as for whether this is the case, we still need to investigate well, and the breakthrough of the investigation is Qin Qian's family."

Mr. Xu Er sat back, "Father means to bring Qin Qian's parents and let them make a big deal about this matter?" ”

"You're right, only in this way will those two show their feet, or force out the "dead" Qin Qian. ”

A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Si hurriedly went to the restaurant, found the shopkeeper Wei, whispered a few words, and the shopkeeper called a guy to order him to go down.

The guy went back to the house to change his clothes, went to the backyard to lead the horse, and beat the horse out of Qingping County.

……

As soon as Mr. Xu Er and Xu Yan entered the county office, the third prince got the news, and originally wanted to send someone to invite the two of them over, but was stopped by Qi Guogong, "This is too deliberate, you and I will go to visit the old gentleman later." ”

The two waited for half an hour, and then they came out of the county office, and came to see the old man in a carriage.

"I've seen the third prince, the Duke of Qi."

Mr. Xu Er saluted.

The third prince gave a handful, "Mr. Second doesn't have to be polite, when did you arrive?" ”

"For an hour, I went to the county government during this time, and I wanted to ask Qin Qian why he wanted to harm my father, only to know that Qin Qian was dead, I came back and told my father about it, and my father has been blaming himself."

The third prince's face was the same, "This matter is that Qingping County is too eager, I have already made this excerpt, and I ask him to be removed from the post of Qingping County Commander, and the old gentleman does not have to blame himself, according to me and Grandpa Guo, Qin Qian is also the most suspicious, and he is also innocent." ”

"Thank you for the comfort of the third prince, but after all, there is no conclusive evidence, a life is gone, I feel very uncomfortable, I won't accompany the two of you, go back to the house slowly."

"Sir, slow down."

Xu Liang helped the old man back to the house.

The Third Prince and the Duke of Qi sat down.

The third prince said, "Second Mr. Don't worry, even if Qin Qian dies, we will find out who is behind him." ”

"The third prince is bothered."

"The matter, Mr. Two is polite, Grandpa Guo and I wanted to take the imperial doctor to Qingping County as soon as possible to help the old man detoxify, but I forgot about Mr. Er, please don't blame."

Mr. Xu Er got up and gave him a big salute, "Thank you to the third prince for running so much for his father." ”

The third prince got up to help him, "Mr. Second is really polite, it's about the old gentleman, I should do my best." ”

"Mr. Two came by himself?"

Qi Guogong asked knowingly.

"It's with Yan'er, he's gone to see his mother."

Qi Guogong nodded, "Speaking of old man, I haven't seen him for a long time since he came to the birthday banquet. ”

Hearing the meaning of his words, Mr. Xu Er asked people to call Xu Yan over.

After a salute, Xu Yan sat down, and the third prince and the Duke of Qi first gossiped with him, and then asked, "What are the plans of Prince Xu in the future?" ”

If it weren't for Xu Qingwan's disappearance, Xu Yan would now be better than the blue, and because of this, his reputation has not risen, and it is just right to win him over.

"I haven't thought about the many things that have happened to my family."

Qi Guogong nodded, "The old gentleman has only been here for a month, and something like this has happened, I don't think this Qingping County can stay anymore, wait for the old gentleman's body to recover in a few days, you persuade the old gentleman to return to Beijing." ”

Only when the old gentleman returned to Beijing could they take the secret recipe.

"Okay."

Seeing Xu Yan's response, Qi Guogong and the others were relieved, talked for a while, and left.

After sending them back, the two went back to the painting hall, where the old gentleman was already sitting and waiting.

"Father, what you said is really right, they are really plotting Yue'er's business."

Mr. Xu Er said.
