July 1st, thunderstorm.

The three little boys shrank under the eaves of the gate of the academy and suddenly remembered Zhao Jin.

He Qingxuan looked at the gloomy sky, thought of last year's flood for no reason, and said: "If Wang Xianling was successfully promoted at the beginning, then Brother Zhao's future would definitely be limitless. ”

Chen Ping nodded, "Zhao Dutou and Wang Xianling were originally friends who were irreversible, so naturally it would be so, but unfortunately things are wrong now." ”

Ye Chongwen pursed his lips and did not speak.

In fact, the news that Zhao Jin worshiped Wang County Order half a year ago quickly spread to Dean Wang.

Dean Wang hated that he could not see his old friend again, and was afraid that Zhao Jin would leave a knot in his heart, so he wrote a letter and sent someone to Zhao Jin's former residence.

It's a pity that after a few months, Zhao Jin seems to have evaporated from the world and has no news.

He Qingxuan looked back at Chen Ping, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Even if there is no Wang County order, Brother Zhao will come out sooner or later." Did you know that he was born in the Green Forest? ”

Ye Chongwen asked curiously: "But I remember that since the founding of the country, the control of people in the rivers and lakes has been extremely strict, and few people can enter public office except for recruiting security and self-recommendation." How did Brother Zhao get into the county government? ”

He Qingxuan explained, "He didn't take the initiative to enter, and he wasn't recruited. ”

"At the beginning, Wang County ordered the imperial examination to take the office, and he made great progress all the way, but he shined, and he was sent to this place just for the sake of experience and accumulation. On the way to work, he was accidentally robbed by a bandit, and it was Brother Zhao who broke into the thief's den alone and saved Wang County's order at night. ”

He Qingxuan also heard this story from his family recently.

"Later," He Qingxuan paused, and said in a subtle tone, "Wang County ordered him to kill innocents indiscriminately, and wanted to send him to the official for investigation." ”

Chen Ping choked up, "What?" ”

"Killing people to pay for their lives is an iron rule of the law, and he did it without permission, although he was full of blood, after all, it was still inappropriate. But although Wang Xianling took him to the government at that time, he also became a lawyer and gave Brother Zhao a 'righteous' name, so that he was no longer under the jurisdiction of the government. ”

"From then on, Brother Zhao followed Wang Xianling all the way to Yongshun County, and finally became the head of the capital to assist Wang Xianling in managing the county."

After listening to Zhao Jin's story, several people couldn't help but sigh, a pair of officialdom confidants wanted to work together to help the right and suppress the evil, but they didn't expect to die before they could get out of the school.

Now that Wang Xianling is dead and stigmatized, Zhao Jin wants to re-enter the public door in the future, I am afraid it will not be easy.

Ye Chongwen said, "The past can't be changed, I just hope that Brother Zhao can be safe, and presumably Wang County Ling can also rest assured." ”

Chen Ping said, "Don't worry, Brother Zhao has the ability to do things carefully, without that official uniform, I believe he is safer." ”

While the three children were chatting, Li Yang and Dean Wang were standing in the academy looking at the door.

Dean Wang said, "There is still a year and a half to take the county test. ”

"Brother Yuanshu, I've already said hello," Li Yang stretched out his hand to support his wheelchair, "Chongwen, hasn't he nodded yet?" ”

Dean Wang sat in a wheelchair and smiled bitterly, "That child used to look easy-going and cheerful, but now he is becoming more and more stubborn. ”

The students of the academy have almost gone, and several teachers have also been interested.

But because Ye Lao was here before his death, Ye Chongwen was reluctant to leave.

Dean Wang hinted several times that Ye Chongwen was silent.

"Wait a little longer," Li Yang had mixed feelings, "don't force him." ”

Dean Wang nodded, and then urged the three children at the door to go back to read.

When the three of them heard this, they ran into the academy, and the door slammed shut, cutting off people's sight.

Not far from the academy, there is a dark alleyway.

A figure stepped out, leaning over to pick up fallen leaves from the rain on the street, frowning slightly.

Zhao Jin sighed deeply, turned around and disappeared into the dark alley.

He was supposed to say goodbye today, but in the end he didn't show up.

......

On July 2, the people of the county were still talking about Fuding Tower.

An even more alarming piece of news spread like wildfire.

There was a murderer in the county, Huang Liuye was beheaded, and Huang County's leg was broken!

The government issued a reward, and anyone who could put forward clues would be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!

The news reached Huating College on the same day.

He Qingxuan lowered his voice and hooked his fingers on the table, letting Chen Ping and Ye Chongwen get closer.

"This thing is terrifying, I got the news from my family, do you know how Huang Lao Liu died in the end?"

Ye Chongwen tilted his body, with a bit of the lively and agile posture of the past, "Don't you say that you were beheaded?" ”

"Since Qingxuan asked so, it must be more than that." Chen Ping thought for a moment, "It's even more amazing than the head of the owl, could it be a thousand cuts?" ”

According to the law of Dayu, the capital punishment is nothing more than the beheading, beheading, splitting the corpse of five horses, cutting thousands of knives, and so on.

He Qingxuan smiled, "You don't know, Huang Laosan panicked after Fuding Building went out of the water, and he didn't control his subordinates, and the news came out." ”

"According to them, that Huang Lao Liu was cut into a blur of flesh and blood, and even the people around him were killed, and when he was carried back, there were severed limbs and broken arms everywhere."

Ye Chongwen hesitated: "It won't be a thief, right?" ”

Chen Ping denied this conjecture, "The Huang family is now powerful, do thieves dare to provoke it?" ”

"I don't know about this," He Qingxuan shook his head, "Anyway, I heard rumors that the murderer has red eyes and blue face, and looks like a demon." ”

Chen Ping nodded thoughtfully, "No wonder there was a messenger coming to the door just now." ”

I heard that when the yacha came to inquire just now, Li Yangle pulled the yacha and asked "is it true?"

directly made a few yacha so angry that their faces were red and their necks were thick.

The three little boys smiled dumbly, this is indeed what Li Yang can do.

Ye Chongwen couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This is called a report and a report." At the beginning, Huang Laosan used his power for personal gain against the dean, but now the retribution has come, and he deserves it. ”

He Qingxuan said with a smile: "The rain yesterday was really good, really happy. ”

A rain washed away the haze that had accumulated in everyone's hearts for a year.

Chen Ping only felt that this Huang Lao Liu's death was really weird.

I thought about going to the county office to find Ma Cheng to ask for details, but considering that he was on the cusp now, he still didn't move.

In any case, it was the Huang family's own hatred with others, so why should they meddle.

It's just that I don't know which way the gods are coming out of this evil breath for everyone.

......

The noisy inspection of the murderer stopped not long after, and I heard that it was Huang Laosan's order.

Li Yang was well-informed, and said to his disciple Li Feng: "Huang Laosan is not good now, the Huang family's business has been changed to a newcomer, but the murderer is gone." ”

"Huang Laosan can actually bear this loss?" Li Feng was surprised.

With Huang Laosan's character, such a big thing can't be solved, which is really not like his style.

Li Yang felt that this matter was very understandable, "He was broken by someone, finding the murderer is secondary, and keeping his official position is the most important." ”

Although there is no explicit rule in the Daiyu Dynasty, people with disabilities are not allowed to sit in the court.

But Huang Laosan's bad words and deeds are facts, and he has no political achievements, and it should not be easy for him to keep his official position if he is disabled.

Sure enough.

A few months later, the new county magistrate took over the county government with an official document.

The people talked about it after dinner, and the Huang family officially ended.

Yongshun County became quiet.
