Chapter 144 Chin Messenger arrived
Although Fang Cheng reluctantly accepted the holy decree, some people could not ignore it, and after handing over the holy decree to his subordinates, he took out a piece of silver and stuffed it to the other party, and said: "Lord Scout, you are running all the way, why don't you rest here for a while?" ”
Originally, I heard that the scouts who came to Kushui County were very dissatisfied along the way, but they didn't want to have this unexpected joy, and after checking the money, their attitude eased a lot, "The lower official will not delay if he wants to go back to resume his life, Lord Qincha will arrive in two days, don't be lazy." ”
After saying that, he turned over and got on his horse and left.
For two days, Fang Cheng's brows became tighter and tighter, originally he wanted to put the charge on Song Qingyou's head, as long as he did a good job up and down, there would be no problem with Ren Qincha no matter how he investigated.
But now that the notices have been issued, even if Fang Cheng doesn't recognize it, he can't stop the people's leisurely mouths, so he can only wave his hand to let everyone disperse, and go back to the house with a depressed heart to think about countermeasures.
This holy decree is like a timely rain that gives Song Qingyou a chance, since it is the Qincha investigation case from the capital, it will definitely be absolutely fair, this is a good opportunity to clean up Fang City!
After getting rid of the charge, Song Qingyou rushed to the field where the vegetables were planted as soon as possible, and sure enough, no one took care of it in the past few days, and the originally lush little greens became wilted and half-dead, which made Song Qingyou feel distressed.
Fang Mansion.
Fang Cheng, who was also aware that Qin Cha was not easy to fool, paced back and forth in the main hall, thinking about how the news of the death of the county order spread, and the first thing he suspected was Song Qingyou and his party, after all, they were exiled from the capital.
But after thinking about it, if it was really related to Song Qingyou, how could she be so passive before, so Fang Cheng habitually wanted to discuss with the master, only then did he realize that he hadn't seen him for a long time, and his heart sank.
Two days passed in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, Qin Cha arrived in Kushui County.
Early in the morning, Fang Cheng had already taken people to wait at the gate of the county seat, and he saw a team of people from a distance, and he couldn't help but be speechless when he saw it, and his thoughts of climbing up became more and more intense.
Soon the carriage that Qin Cha was riding in arrived at the door, Fang Cheng hurriedly straightened his clothes, bowed down and saluted: "Fang Cheng, the military household of Kushui County, see Lord Qin Cha!" A place to stay has been prepared for adults, so it's better to take a rest after a tiring journey. ”
"Lord Fang doesn't have to be polite." A deep male voice came from the carriage, sounding not very old, "Let's go to the government office first." ”
Soon the group came to the county office, this Qin Cha was also a pragmatic person, interrupted Fang Cheng's idea of continuing to greet him, and asked directly: "The county order died violently, why didn't you report it in time?" ”
Originally, Fang Cheng was relieved when he saw that Qin Cha was a young man in his twenties, thinking that it would definitely be easier to fool this kind of person who was generally a child of a family to obtain an official position by relying on the family, but he didn't expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, he hit the nail on the head, and a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.
Fortunately, after having a bad guess before, he had already gone to Xiao Yiran to discuss countermeasures, and Fang Cheng replied with trepidation: "Because of the severe drought in the county these days, the people of the county are trying to solve the disaster. When the county lord asked me to take good care of the people, I was finally solved, and the grain harvest was gratifying, but this kind of thing didn't happen, and I was also very sad. ”
Qin Cha looked at Fang Cheng, his face did not change in the slightest, and he asked again, "Where is the corpse of the county order?" ”
Fang Cheng pretended to wipe his tears and replied: "Lord Hui, since I learned that the county lord had encountered an accident, I have sent people out of the city to look for it, but so far I have found nothing. ”
Qin Cha seemed to believe Fang Cheng's words, "In the bitter cold land of Kushui County, the county officials have no experience in handling this kind of case, so the Holy Lord authorized the Gyeonggi Division to come to assist, and then you supported his orders." ”
The words fell, and a man walked out from behind Qin Cha, dressed in a black robe and wearing a narrow blade long knife at his waist, his temperament was not angry and arrogant, and he didn't look like a head catcher, but more like a bandit.
The man arched his hand and said: "In the next exhibition, I will ask all my colleagues to cooperate sincerely." ”
The news of Lord Qincha's arrival quickly spread in Kushui County, and Song Qingyou and Xiao Qishu naturally knew about it, and while watering the vegetable seedlings that were finally rescued, Song Qingyou joked: "I heard that this Qincha is from the capital." ”
"So?" Xiao Qishu did the work in his hands without raising his head.
"You say-" Song Qingyou straightened up and stretched, "Do you think this Qincha is an acquaintance, if it happens, then God will help me!" ”
Xiao Qishu thought about the behavior of those children of the family, shook his head, and said: "Those who are familiar with me are basically stationed at the border with troops, and those who are familiar with Xiao Yiran are all gentlemen, how can they come to such a bitter cold place." ”
Song Qingyou pursed his lips, "It's a pity." "She still wants to take this opportunity to kill Fang Cheng!
I thought that since Qin sent down to investigate, there would be nothing to do with him, but I didn't expect that soon there would be a small courtyard of the officials, saying that Qin almost wanted to see Xiao Qishu by name.
I don't know what kind of medicine this adult bought in the gourd, Song Qingyou decided to go with Xiao Qishu.
After Zhanwei caught his head and greeted everyone, he ordered Fang Cheng to leave with a few officials, thinking that he was going to the corpse of the county order, and Qin Cha sent someone to move all the account books of Kushui County in recent years to the government office, and then named Xiao Qishu.
Seeing the beautifully decorated carriages and fat and strong horses parked outside the mansion, Xiao Qishu only felt as if he was in a different world.
After entering the mansion, when he saw the person sitting upright on the main seat, Xiao Qishu couldn't hide his excitement, and shouted in an unbelievable tone: "Wash?!" ”
The person on the throne heard the voice and put down the account book, and was also very excited, "Xiao Qishu! You're going to make it easy for me to find! ”
It turned out that this Lord Qincha was the youngest Wuwei general Cui Xihao in the dynasty, and Xiao Qishu was a classmate, the two have been together since their enlightenment, grew up together, joined the army together, and later one went to the north and the other went to the west.
This year happened to be the time when the western garrison changed its guard, Cui Xihao returned to Beijing with the marshal to report on his work, and wanted to be a good brother to catch up with the past, but who knew that when he returned to Beijing, he learned that Xiao Qishu collaborated with the enemy and treason, and the emperor read that the Xiao family was full of loyalty and martyrdom before all the remaining Xiao family members were exiled to Kushui County, and it happened that the matter of the county order was also transmitted to Beijing.
Although the county order is only a seven-grade sesame official, but the killing of the court official in broad daylight is undoubtedly a provocation, the emperor was furious, and ordered that the murderer must be found, Cui Xihao invited the post of Qin Cha to investigate.
After the old story, Cui Xihao also noticed Song Qingyou, who was standing aside, heard that Xiao Qishu was suddenly married when he was in the army, and because of the first meeting, he saluted and said, "This is Mrs. Sister-in-law." ”
Song Qingyou, who was only in her early twenties, was suddenly called a sister-in-law, and she was really not used to it, "Ah...... Hello hello, my name is Song Qingyou. ”
