Chapter 278: Clear and Insightful, Unforgettable

In the backyard of the good people's residence, the moonlight is clear and the air is fresh, Li Xuan feels at least much stronger than the room inside.

At this moment, Gu Tan and the others were all standing on one side, only a little scholar wearing a blue-gray shirt and a blue short belt on his head, twelve or thirteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, was standing opposite Li Xuan.

After listening to him talk about the experience during this time, Li Xuan said with emotion: "It turns out that you have spent the past few days in the Confucius Temple, and you have suffered these days."

"Thank you for your concern!" The little scholar looked at Li Xuan calmly, and then asked in a solemn tone: "I don't know when the villain will be able to retrieve my master's body, the villain is afraid of delay, so he can't send it back to his hometown in Fenzhou in time for burial."

"You don't have to worry about your master's affairs, the government will arrange for someone to send him back to Fenzhou for resettlement, and then you just need to go back with you." Li Xuan made a guarantee in one sentence, this is not a difficult thing, one sentence can be determined.

Li Xuan's gaze swept over the bodies of the county Cheng Gu Tan, the county lieutenant Kang Yao, the chief bookkeeper Li Dingyi, the soldiers who joined the army, the head catcher Hu Ji and the old man, and then asked solemnly, "Did your master have any unusual behavior a few days before he passed away?"

"Unusual behavior?" The little scholar's face showed a hint of diffuseness, and after a few breaths, his eyes opened suddenly, looked at Li Xuan and said, "Yes, the master has always calculated until midnight in the past few nights, and he has always kept saying, no, no."

"What's wrong!" Li Xuan immediately followed up and asked, and at the same time, several people on the side showed concerned looks on their faces at the same time, and strangely none of them looked nervous.

"I don't know." The little scholar's face showed a bitterness, he shook his head, and said, "The master is that kind of person, he says that he doesn't understand anything, and he doesn't tell me about anything, and he always covers his head there alone and calculates."

"And what about the calculated manuscript paper?" Li Xuan's face became serious.

"Burned, and after the master's manuscript paper was counted, he burned it himself, leaving nothing behind." The little scholar frowned and looked at a few people on the side, and said with some puzzlement: "The one who joined the army that day has already asked me, and I told him in detail." Z.br>

A trace of coldness flashed in Li Xuan's eyes, he nodded lightly, and said, "It was the soldier who forgot to tell us, so can you tell me what your master was doing normally in those days?"

The little scholar said with a confused face: "What else can I do, in the official office with the yellow book of household registration, I often go down to the field to check the growth of rice, after all, the summer harvest is coming, and the master also said that after this summer harvest, he can go back to Fenzhou."

When you go back to Fenzhou, do you take a vacation to return to Fenzhou, or do you transfer back to Fenzhou directly?

What did Hao Yuan find?

Li Xuan slowly stood up, looked at the county Cheng Gu Tan and said, "In this way, let's go back to the way Hao joined the army on weekdays, go to the official house first, and then go to the field...... The things of the field will be talked about tomorrow, and ...... today Today, I will first call all the scribes under Hao Senjun's army together, especially those who usually accompany him to the fields."

"Shangguan means that it may be a matter of land taxation...... Gu Tan looked at Li Xuan in some surprise, but his expression was obviously relieved.

Li Xuan nodded calmly and said, "Now that the summer harvest is imminent, if there is something unsightly in the middle of this that is discovered by Hao Senjun, then it is normal to make some moves. After all, in the eyes of those people, a human life is really nothing, even the life of a court official......

"What Shangguan said is even." Li Dingyi immediately stood up at this time, and said with a serious face: "Here in Dongyang, there are quite a few family clans that have encroached on countless acres of land over the years. If Hao Senjun really wants to stab these people apart and be secretly stabbed by someone, it is not impossible, why is Huang Senjun so careless......

After speaking, Li Dingyi let out a long sigh and kept shaking his head, as if he was lamenting the difficulty of the world.

Li Xuan turned his head and looked at the county Cheng Gu Tan on the side with a frown.

The eyes of the two men looked at each other, and a hint of horror flashed in their eyes at the same time.

Li Dingyi got off the donkey too quickly, Li Xuan just proposed a possibility,

Li Dingyi didn't have any doubts at all, and completely put the charges on the heads of Huang Ziming and the Dongyang family, which was a bit too much.

"Then I'll go back now and find Huang Senjun to ask?" County Lieutenant Kang Yao stood up at this time, and his expression was full of expectation when he looked at Li Xuan.

Li Xuan looked Kang Yao up and down, shook his head lightly, and said, "County Lieutenant Kang, why haven't you washed away the murderous aura that came back from the Western Regions after so many years, no wonder the Huang County Order doesn't let you master the matter of Facao!"

Although Kang Yao's words were vague, the murderous aura in his words and the look of expectation on his face were not concealed at all.

shouting and shouting and killing at every turn, this is no problem in the Western Regions, but in this Dongyang, it is somewhat inappropriate.

There are still some means to do things here.

Besides, Huang Ziming's matter, now at most, can only be known and not reported, and he will call people over for questioning, and he, who has been in charge of Fa Cao all the year round, must have thought of a prevarication a long time ago.

In doing so, it is easy to startle the snake.

If you want to convict someone, the key is to get evidence.

Li Xuan turned his head to look at Gu Tan, the county on the side, and said in a deep voice: "Gu Xiancheng, the matter of Huang joining the army still needs to be cautious, this official sees, whether to send someone to the place where Huang Shenjun lives to take a look, and also, his residence may not be only one, there are other places that are unknown, and send someone to look for it to see if you can find anything."

"Yes!" Gu Tan nodded directly, he looked past Li Xuan at Xi Ying on the side, and said in a deep voice, "In this way, this matter will trouble Xi to join the army."

Xi Ying glanced at Li Xuan, and when he saw Li Xuan nodding, he gave up his hand and said, "Xiaguan will arrange it now."

Xi Ying quickly turned to leave, looking at his back, the county lieutenant Kang Yao nodded and said, "Although Xi Ying has not been to the Western Regions or participated in the war on the Eastern Island, he is cautious, has a delicate personality, and is quite good in force, which is quite worthy of training."

"Not bad, indeed." Li Xuan glanced at Gu Tan, and then looked at Kang Yao and Li Dingyi at the same time, and said, "Trouble County Lieutenant Kang and Master Li to go back to the county government first, and stabilize Huang Senjun first, this official and Gu Xiancheng will stay here for the time being, see if there is anything else that has not been found here, and wait until Xi Senjun finds something, and then interrogate together."

"Whoa!" Li Dingyi and Kang Yao did not hesitate at all, turned around and left quickly.

Looking at the back of Li Dingyi leaving, Li Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

[Li Dingyi, the master of Dongyang, a native of Muzhou, and the deputy head of Dongyang Hall of the Tianyin Sect. 】

"No one thought it would be him." Gu Tan walked to Li Xuan's side, looked in the direction of the door, and said faintly.

"He's been there too many places." Li Xuan shook his head slightly, and said, "This official originally thought that the person who came to investigate the cause of Hao Shenjun's death that day should at least be the county lieutenant Kang, but later I learned that Fa Cao was actually under the jurisdiction of Gu County Cheng, and County Cheng did not appear that day......

"It was Master Li who offered to go to see it for Xiaguan, and Xiaguan didn't think much about it at the time, so he later reported that he died of a violent illness, and Xiaguan didn't think much about it at the time, but only later did he feel that something was wrong, so he quietly sent Hao Shenjun's body to Wuzhou, but no matter what, he didn't expect that he was doing a secret hand behind his back, or even killing someone." Gu Tan's face showed incomparable hatred for a while.

In Dongyang today, the county commander Huang Jin has been recuperating from his injury, and looking at the injury, I am afraid that he will not be able to recover in a short time, and even if he is recuperated well, he may not be able to come back to take full power in the future.

This also means that Huang Jin is in Dongyang for a day, and the real control of Dongyang is in Gu Tan's hands.

He is the person who does not want to see any turmoil in Dongyang.

As long as he can get through this period smoothly, Gu Tan will have the opportunity to succeed Huang Jin and become the real county magistrate of Dongyang.

But now, whether it is Li Dingyi or Huang Ziming, what they want to do is to completely disturb the entire Dongyang, which Gu Tan absolutely cannot tolerate.

"It's just two clowns, what we should really worry about is the people behind the two of them." Li Xuan waved his hand and said directly, "The official careers of the two of them have always been clearly visible and can withstand any investigation, so so

The possibility of finding the problem directly in them is minimal, which also means that, on the bright side, there is absolutely very little connection between them and the Tianyin Sect."

"No matter what their true origin is, once they are out of contact for a long time, no matter how relieved the people of the Tianyin Sect are, they will not really trust them, so behind the two of them, there must be another person, and there is another person who is really controlling the situation in the entire Dongyang." Li Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

Li Dingyi and Huang Ziming are just the deputy hall masters of the Dongyang Hall of the Tianyin Sect, and the real hall master of the Dongyang Hall of the Tianyin Sect is someone else.

"What the prince said is very true." Gu Tan nodded, and said with a serious face: "Now that the bait has been put down, now it depends on whether they can take us to the lair and help us catch a big fish."

"The more we let go now, the more relieved they become." Li Xuan smiled, he and the county Cheng Gu Tan stayed in this courtyard, and let Li Dingyi do it, the bolder he would be to do something.

"It's almost time, and the lower officials will leave, and I hope the prince will cover it up." Gu Tan arched his hand at Li Xuan, and then left the courtyard quickly.

Gu Tan is Dongyang County Cheng, and he is the biggest controller here at this time.

With his ability, it is not difficult to go back quietly.

Li Xuan turned around and looked at the little scholar at the door of the house in the distance, walked over quickly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "This courtyard, the backyard will continue to be sealed, but you can live in the front yard, in this courtyard, if there are some places where copper coins are hidden, you can also look for it, if you can find it, stay for a while, and wait for this day, after the matter is dealt with, the official will contact you to send you back to Fenzhou."

"Thank you, King!" The little scholar bowed sincerely to Li Xuan, and after glancing at Li Xuan, he said seriously: "Actually, although all the things calculated by the master have been burned, many things have been seen by the villain, and they are all recorded in his mind."

"That means you can now dictate them all."

The mystery of Dongyang Sihu's death in joining the army is finally about to be completely revealed in front of Li Xuan's eyes.

As for the affairs of the Dongyang County Ya, Li Xuan never intended to really intervene.

Whether it is arresting or killing, it is their own internal matter.

Now, let them fight each other on their own.

The secret in this yellow book of household registration is what Li Xuan cares about the most.
