Seeing Ye Ming's appearance of smiling but not smiling, Miss Shen was a little surprised:

"Really?"

Ye Ming smiled and nodded:

"How's that, but you're excited?"

Miss Shen shook her head: "It's good that the people of the big family are good, but most people can't afford it, I know that my fortune is shallow, and I don't dare to climb high." ”

"I'll just say casually, as long as people don't come to the door, I'm not in a hurry to use you to lie."

Ye Ming smiled and drove the ox cart on, all the way to a somewhat remote courtyard in the city.

There is also a small river outside the yard, which is a nice environment.

"I'll spend the night here."

As he spoke, he saw Yeming jump out of the ox cart and knock on the door.

This family lives an old fisherman, and when he saw someone staying overnight, he generously agreed to come down.

He was the only one in the old fisherman's family, his wife died of illness the year before last, and his two sons were conscripted to serve as soldiers because they could not pay the "soldier tax".

After resting at his house, Miss Shen looked left and right, sniffed carefully, and found nothing unusual.

Seeing this, Yeming smiled and said:

"It's okay tonight, you can rest assured."

Hearing this, Miss Shen nodded, and then said that she needed to boil water for a bath.

Yeming was too lazy to take care of these trivial matters, so she was self-reliant, and ran to chat with the old fisherman by herself.

Early the next morning, the old fisherman went out to fish as usual.

Yeming said that they could visit the city with peace of mind.

Miss Shen used to go to the city with her family, and she sat in a sedan chair, and she never wandered around like now, but she also felt novel.

The two of them walked on the street for a while, and suddenly saw a woman with a disheveled hair crying in the street, crying while going to the county government to complain.

When many people around saw her, they were talking about it.

Miss Shen had a good ear, and she heard someone say that the woman's son committed suicide by throwing himself into the river because of a woman's martyrdom, but the woman didn't believe it, so she went to the government to complain.

The former magistrate didn't believe the woman's words and didn't deal with the matter, and this time the new magistrate took office, and after the woman heard about it, she had to sue again.

Most of the onlookers were also curious about whether the new magistrate was clean or dirty, and many people went to the county government to see the situation.

Seeing this, Miss Shen glanced at Yeming, and when she saw that he didn't react, she said:

"Brother, let's go and have a look!"

"It's easy to say, it's all up to my little sister."

Yeming said in her previous tone.

The two of them came to the outside of the county government with the crowd, and at this time the voice of "mighty" had already sounded in the county office.

Yao Zijie, the new official, is wearing an official uniform and sitting on the seat of the county government.

It's also funny to say that King Jin is now an out-and-out thief in the eyes of others in the world, but because he is under the banner of reviving the Xu Kingdom, the civil and military officials under his command still retain the official uniform style of the Xu State.

However, many of those who claim to be loyal to the Xu State have been secretly reforming their official uniforms.

Of course, what kind of official uniform you wear has nothing to do with how you decide the case, and it depends on how Yao Zijie decides the case.

After hearing that the woman said that her son was not martyred, but killed, the new magistrate immediately inquired in detail, and called the woman's neighbors to interrogate......

After the process along the way, there was basically no problem, but when tracking down the clues, he only ordered his subordinates to go downstream to find them, and did not choose to search along the way, nor did he immediately send people to inquire about suspicious people, which was a bit too particular about evidence and not decisive enough.

However, as a new official, it is already good to be able to do things to such a degree.

When the people around them saw this, they were all amazed and thought that this was a good official.

Yao Zijie heard the people's recognition of him, and he also raised his head with some pride.

As a person from a big family, he still attaches great importance to his reputation.

After reading this trial, Miss Shen said:

"This man is upright, and if he grinds more in the position, he will be a good official."

Ye Ming nodded approvingly and said:

"Most of the big people in the family have eyes above the top, such a person is so pragmatic, it is very rare, little sister may wish to consider it?"

"Brother is in such a hurry to marry me off?"

"With such a lovely little sister by my side, I want to stay more."

The two joked a few words and were about to leave the government office.

It was Yao Zijie's sharp eyes and he saw Miss Shen from the crowd.

It's just that seeing that the other party doesn't seem to have any intention of talking, he didn't say anything, just watched.

Seeing this, there was a master beside him, his expression moved, and he asked:

"My lord, do you have a crush on that woman?"

Yao Zijie shook his head: "I've only met once, and she's an unusual woman." ”

Seeing this, the master's eyes moved slightly, and the corner of his eye looked in the direction where Miss Shen disappeared......

After a day of wandering around the city, in the evening, Miss Shen returned to the old fisherman's house with Yeming.

The old fisherman said that he might catch a big fish tonight, and he would go to the boat to guard it, and the family invited the two of them to take care of themselves.

Anyway, there is nothing valuable in his house, and Miss Shen has a moderate demeanor, so she is not a bad person at first glance, but it is reassuring.

Miss Shen used to bathe every day, but now that she has the conditions, she wants to boil water to bathe again.

But this time, I heard Yeming say:

"It's too much waste water to take a bath every day, so forget it today."

Miss Shen is as good as a stream, no longer taking a bath, but after a simple wash, she only takes off her coat and lies down with her clothes.

In the dead of night, even Miss Shen, who wanted to stay up late for a while, couldn't help but fall asleep.

Soon, a group of people suddenly appeared outside, and these people quietly approached the old fisherman's house with sacks and ropes.

One of them used a knife to pry open the door that was not very strong, and after waving his hand, a group of people rushed in and held the sleeping Miss Shen directly down.

Miss Shen woke up, but she couldn't resist at all, so she was gagged with a cloth towel by a group of people, tied up with five flowers, and stuffed into a sack.

Someone saw the night light in the next room sleeping like a dead pig, and with a fierce light flashing in his eyes, he planned to kill him with a sharp knife.

When the leader saw this, he stopped him from doing so, and let no extraneous branches arise, and took the people away......

The former county magistrate left a lot of bad debts, which made people anxious.

Yao Zijie dealt with it here until late at night, and he hasn't sorted it out yet.

Yao Zijie, who was exhausted, decided that it would be better to go back to his room and rest first because of today's end.

When I returned to the residence of the back house, I saw the master standing there with a smile on his face.

"Master, why don't you sleep so late?"

"Haha, just go to sleep, just go to sleep, master, you have to sleep well tonight!"

The master said very flatteringly, gave Yao Zijie a "you know" look, and went out with a smile.

When Yao Zijie saw this, he felt a little inexplicable.

Push open the door, enter the room, take off your coat, and sit down on the bed.

Suddenly, by the moonlight, Yao Zijie noticed that something was wrong.

There was someone on the bed, and it was still a woman......

Seeing this, Yao Zijie was a little surprised:

"Are you the maid of the house? Who asked you to come? ”

There was no answer, and the woman's body moved slightly, as if she was struggling a little.

Seeing this, Yao Zijie noticed that something was wrong, turned around and lit the lamp in the room, and shone it again.

I found that there was a woman on the bed who was gagged and her hands and feet were tied, and when I looked at it, it was Miss Shen who had one, well, two sides.

"Miss Shen...... Why are you here? ”

Yao Zijie was very surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to untie Miss Shen.

Miss Shen, who was still a little flustered, gradually calmed down when she saw Yao Zijie.

After being untied, politely replied:

"Why am I here, Master Yao doesn't know?"

"How do I know this...... Master, did the master do it, right? ”

Yao Zijie is not stupid, when he saw Miss Shen here, he recalled the performance of the master just now, who did this, do you need to say more?

"This master, acting so unscrupulously, is hateful!"

Yao Zijie said through gritted teeth, and hurriedly apologized to Miss Shen.

In the face of his apology, Miss Shen politely said that those who did not know were not to blame, and praised Yao Zijie for his gentlemanly demeanor, which made Yao Zijie very useful.

At the same time, he also found that this Miss Shen is really extraordinary, she is not shocked when she encounters problems, and she has a calmness that sees through life and death, which is far from being comparable to ordinary women.

In addition, in the dead of night, it was in his room, and at this moment, Yao Zijie suddenly felt a little moved......

It's just that the more this is the case, the more restrained he becomes, and he behaves as humble as jade.

He was born tall, his face was like a crown of jade, his appearance was dignified, and he had a performance at this time, which really fascinated countless women.

Miss Shen also seemed a little shy, and she hid her face with her sleeves when she talked to him.

Subsequently, Yao Zijie ordered someone to drag the master down to play 30 boards, and personally took someone to send Miss Shen back to her residence.

When they arrived at the old fisherman's house, the sky was already white, and the old fisherman could be seen in the distance collecting his nets on the boat.

It seems that the night of waiting has finally paid off.

Yao Zijie knew that Miss Shen was temporarily living in the old fisherman's house, and he intended to show favor and send two people to help.

I don't know how big the fish the old fisherman caught this time, but the two strong officers helped but couldn't lift the nets.

Seeing this, Yao Zijie felt that the performance of the errand man had damaged his face, and sent two people to help the old fisherman salvage.

With the joint efforts of the five people, the fishing net was finally pulled up.

When everyone looked at it, they saw that there were not big fish in the fishing net, but two bags of hemp.

The old fisherman, who was originally excited, was inevitably disappointed when he saw this.

The night seemed to have been in vain.

At this time, the man who helped him scoop up the sack reached out and touched the contents of the sack, but his eyes widened and shouted:

"People, people are in sacks!"

When Yao Zijie heard this, his eyes were immediately attracted.

There was someone in the sack, which was clearly related to the murder!

The other officers were also aware of the problem, and several men worked together to carry both sacks ashore.

As soon as the sack was opened, it was found that there were two corpses, a man and a woman.

The deceased were young men and women, and their bodies were tightly tied with ropes, and there was a stone in the sack.

The strange thing is that the two have been dead for many days, and their bodies are incorruptible and look lifelike.

After the sack was opened, there was a strange fragrance, which smelled very good.

Yao Zijie and Miss Shen were surprised when they smelled this fragrance, the two glanced at each other, and quickly stepped forward to check the two corpses.

At this time, an errand officer suddenly pointed to the man's corpse and said:

"My lord, I know him, he is the son of the woman who complained yesterday!"

When Yao Zijie heard this, his pupils shrank.

I felt that things were different before, and I knew that this corpse incense represented an unjust case, and when I heard the words, I immediately guessed that these two people should not be martyred.

After that, another veteran officer said that he knew the female corpse.

This woman is the local lady of the Chen family.

After learning the identities of the two, Yao Zijie immediately went to investigate.

As for the old fisherman who found the corpse, Yao Zijie did not treat him badly, and rewarded him with three taels of silver on the spot.

The old fisherman happily knelt on the ground and buckled his head, calling "Lord Qingtian".

"Miss Shen has offended a lot today, but now that the incident happened suddenly, there are important things to deal with next, and I will apologize to the girl another day!"

Yao Zijie said to Miss Shen very politely.

For some reason, he now cares very much about Miss Shen's opinion and doesn't want to disappoint the other party.

When Miss Shen heard this, she smiled and said:

"Yao Gongzi governs a county, he is already busy, the little woman's affairs are just small things, and the son just needs to be busy with the things at hand."

After seeing Yao Zijie away, Miss Shen felt very tired and was about to go back to the house to rest for a while, but saw Yeming yawning and coming out of the house.

"Little sister, you got up so early, did you sleep well last night?"

"Thanks to my brother, everything is fine."
