Chapter 40 Scholar Yang De

Before leaving Wenxian Pavilion, Jiang Cheng quietly went to meet with Land Rover and told him that in the future, Yun'er would take the opportunity to send a cake to the eldest princess to ask Xiange, and they might be able to meet quietly.

When Land Rover heard this, he was moved, and this kind of sincerity to help him was completely felt by Land Rover, even if it was close relatives and friends, it may not be able to do this.

Jiang Cheng returned to the store and also told Yun'er that she would prepare tomorrow's cake, and if there was a new product in the future, he would send it to Wenxian Pavilion in his name, and maybe he could meet Land Rover at that time, Yun'er was also very moved.

Early in the morning of the second day, Green Yi brought someone to the store to get the cake, Jiang Cheng was already waiting here, and invited her to eat all kinds of products in the store, and although the store was not officially opened at this time, it had accumulated many customers before, and there were many customers, and even if the price was very expensive, many people bought it.

Green Yi suddenly took care of what Jiang Cheng said yesterday, although Green Yi is the maid of the eldest princess, she can be regarded as a high-level maid, and she has a lot of silver per month, but who would dislike having a lot of silver.

Jiang Cheng also revealed a little bit of the wind again, telling her that there will be eyebrows in a while, and she is still preparing, she doesn't need to pay money, and when the time comes, she will give away some dry shares for nothing, she will just wait for the cashier, and the green clothes will leave satisfied.

A few days later, the store was officially opened, selling some ordinary bread to the outside world, after more than a month of fermentation, bread has long been famous in Yongdu City, even ordinary people, will come to buy a little taste, the business is extremely hot, so that Yun'er and Sun Heng are so busy that their feet do not touch the ground.

"Lord Jiang, Lord Jiang, why are you still here, your brother has been looking for you"

On this day, Jiang Cheng was still helping in the store, Zhao Ziming came to find him, and Jiang Wu had already called someone to look for him.

"Zhao Ziming, do you know what my brother is looking for me?"

"I should have encountered a difficult case"

"Got it, I'll go with you"

Jiang Cheng nodded and explained the matter to Sun Heng, and Jiang Cheng hurriedly followed Zhao Ziming.

When I returned to the public building and entered the public house, I saw a pair of old men crying silently, Jiang Wu was constantly comforting, Jiang Cheng glanced at the two old men, brightly dressed, and did not look like poor people.

Jiang Wu gave Jiang Cheng a look, and the two walked next door to talk, and Jiang Cheng asked what was going on.

"Do you remember the Sifang Academy?"

"Remember, what's wrong with our enlightened academy?"

"One of Mr. Chen's students was arrested by the Yamen not long ago because of the murder case"

"Grievances?"

"I don't know yet, but it's quite bizarre, I can't see through it, I'll look for you"

"Let's talk about the case"

"The case is like this, not long ago in Pingyuan County, outside Yongdu City, received a report, saying that a body was found in a well outside Pingyuan County, and the county government officials found that the clothes worn by this person were an old man in a tofu workshop, and the county order arrested the old man in the tofu workshop, and after interrogation, the old man also confessed, and the case was about to be closed.

But at this time, a scholar came to help the old man cry out for grievances, and the county magistrate felt that this scholar was an accomplice, and also took the scholar into custody, the scholar was called Yang De, a student of the Sifang Academy, and Yang De's parents thought that their son was wronged, so they shouted grievances everywhere.

And Yang De is very famous in Sifang Academy, and he is very hopeful of being promoted next year, so Master Chen found me and hoped that I would help Yang De avenge his grievances."

"It's as simple as that?"

"That's all I know for the time being, but you also know the virtues of Master Chen, the students he personally taught are more reliable in terms of virtue and integrity, if Yang Dezhen kills someone, he will also bow to the law, so as not to cry out for injustice like this"

"Understood, let's find out, right, but what excuse to check, this is under the control of the county government"

Jiang Cheng replied, it's no problem to investigate the case, but there has to be a reason, you Qingyi Wei can't do all the work of the yamen.

"The deceased, the identity of the deceased has not yet been ascertained, you can start from this aspect, I will apply for an investigation order with the above, and classify this person as a person from the rivers and lakes, and you can intervene at that time."

"When to go"

"I'll go in the afternoon and bring Zhao Ziming and Xiao Mo"

"Okay, you take down the order as soon as possible, otherwise Pingyuan County may ignore me"

Jiang Cheng nodded, the county officials outside Yongdu City didn't like Tsing Yi Wei very much, because Tsing Yi Wei would take care of everything, and often clash with them in terms of power and responsibility.

Jiang Wu is very efficient, of course, the master of the Sifang Academy is also behind the back, although the master has no official position, but he is highly respected, many students are officials in the imperial court, this kind of case does not involve the immortal rebel party or demons, many people are willing to give face, so the order came soon.

Jiang Cheng took Zhao Ziming and Xiao Mo out of Yongdu City, went straight to the county government of Pingyuan County, and showed the order to the county order.

"This case is about to be closed, what does Tsing Yiwei want to do?"

"My lord, the identity of the deceased has not been ascertained, and it is very likely that it is related to the immortal rebel party we investigated, we have to confirm it"

"Nonsense, the Immortal Rebel Party is a martial arts master, how can it be so easy to be killed"

"My lord, this is an order from above, don't be embarrassed to get off the official"

"Hmph"

The county order was very dissatisfied, but he really didn't dare to stop it, Tsing Yi Wei is nothing in Yongdu City, there are many departments that are stronger than Tsing Yi Wei, but outside Yongdu City, Tsing Yi Wei is like a tiger, most people are not willing to offend Tsing Yi Wei easily, otherwise Tsing Yi Wei will kill these talents, and there will be many crimes to punish them.

The county magistrate called a head catcher to hand over to Jiang Cheng and brought the file, which was much more detailed, but Jiang Cheng also saw the problem at a glance.

"Zhang Zhutou, the file says that the murderer Qian Laohan is a fifty-year-old man with no martial arts experience, and the deceased is a young man in his twenties, what do you think is the probability of Qian Laohan killing people?"

"Jiang Zongqi, isn't there another Yang De?"

"Okay, it's reasonable, Zhao Ziming"

"Subordinate in"

"You go to the painter and the painter, draw the deceased, go to the surrounding villages and towns to inquire, see if anyone knows the deceased, and we will go to the prison to see the murderer."

Jiang Cheng saw that the head catcher's answer was perfunctory, and it seemed that it was hopeless to count on them, so check it yourself.

Jiang Cheng took someone to the prison, and soon saw Yang De, Yang De was also injured, and it seemed that he had suffered a lot, and after knowing Jiang Cheng's origin, he immediately began to cry out for injustice.

"Then don't be in a hurry to shout grievances, I'm here to help you avenge your grievances, you tell me first, why do you help Qian Laohan shout grievances"

"This, this..."

"Is there something inconvenient to say? If you don't even tell the truth, how can I help you avenge your grievances, I can tell you, if the county order officially closes the case in two days, you will be hopeless, and it will be difficult to return the case."

"I, I said ·····"

Yang De was frightened by Jiang Cheng and collapsed a little, and hurriedly told the truth.

Yang De told Jiang Cheng that his home is in Pingyuan County outside Yongdu City, and he met a woman named Yuzhu by chance two years ago.

Yang De is the only son in the family, so it is naturally impossible for someone to be a son-in-law, in fact, a son-in-law is an extremely shameful thing, and it is impossible for a person who is not desperate to be a son-in-law.

Half a month ago, Yuzhu's father found a family affair for her and found someone who was willing to come to the door, but Yuzhu refused to live or die, and quarreled with the family several times, and finally Yuzhu made up her mind to flee from home and elope with Yang De.

At that time, Yang De was extremely moved, and he was willing to elope with Yuzhu, so he hurriedly left Pingyuan County, Yang De had a senior brother who was an official in Jiangzhou, and Yang De took Yuzhu to Jiangzhou.

Because the two eloped in a hurry, they did not prepare items such as horses, and their feet hurt after dawn, so they rested in Qian Laohan's tofu workshop and drank a bowl of tofu brain, and Qian Laohan was a warm-hearted person, and after hearing about the two of them, he also lent the donkey at home to the two of them, so that the two of them could hurry.

The two eloped all the way to Jiangzhou, and Yang De also found his senior brother, who persuaded Yang De to let him go back to Pingyuan County to explain to his family, so that the second elder could rest assured, as for Yuzhu, it was until the child was born, and his father could only grit his teeth and admit that it was raw rice cooked into mature rice.

Yang De rode a donkey back to Qian Laohan's house, but learned that he was arrested by the government, saying that Qian Laohan killed someone, Yang De went to give evidence, and wanted to avenge Qian Laohan, but he didn't expect the Pingyuan County Order to be arbitrary, without waiting for him to explain clearly, he directly said that he was an accomplice, and even he was arrested together, Yang De was tortured in prison, and had to sign and draw on the confession.

"I didn't expect Brother Yang to be a man of temperament"

When Jiang Cheng heard this, he smiled at Yang De and said, Da Wei's etiquette is not strict, but people who can do such things as elopement are definitely temperamental.

"My lord, the reason why I am sure that Qian Laohan did not kill anyone, in addition to Qian Laohan is a good person, there is another thing, when I rushed back from Jiangzhou, I rested in Yangping Town, and saw a fierce-faced man and a woman in a tea house, the woman was crying and complaining, saying that if it wasn't for the man killing someone, they wouldn't have to run away or something, after returning to Pingyuan County, I heard about Qian Laohan's affairs again, and I felt that Qian Laohan was wronged."

"That town in Yangpingyi is only more than ten miles away from here."

"There should be forty miles of land, Yangping Town is long and narrow, separated by seven villages at one end and one at the end, and there are more than 20 miles."

"I remember that the deceased was found in Shanping Town, which is next door to Yangping Town."

"Yes, sir"

"Brother Yang, can you remember the face of that fierce man"

"I don't remember much, but this man has a very obvious scar on his forehead."

"Okay, I've written it down, Brother Yang, wait a minute, if you and Qian Laohan are innocent in this case, Jiang will definitely give you a person to be innocent."

Jiang Cheng nodded, Yang De's words made Jiang Cheng feel that the flaw should be here, it is not a difficult unsolved case, it will not be difficult to solve, it is estimated that this plain county order is too arbitrary.
