Chapter 36: I Know the Truth, But I Want to Do It

An Ying packed her bags and prepared to go to Huzhou again.

Guo Langzhong sighed beside him: "Why are you so troubled, no one has given you travel subsidies back and forth." You, too sincere, Luo Qiaoniang's matter ends here, don't be thankless. ”

An Ying remembered that in her previous life, when she first became a lawyer, she taught the lawyer and said earnestly: "The client's requirements can be done, don't force yourself." It's not worth the hard work for a few dollars. ”

understands the truth, many people have taught her, but she can't learn it, she just wants to do it.

"Lord Guo, I'm not all for Luo Qiaoniang. I just want to know. ”

"Hey." Guo Langzhong patted the ash on the soles of his shoes, "That's it, you should also come to the Criminal Department." In this way, you either go to Lord Chen to ask for a note, or you will be a civilian girl, and it will be difficult to move an inch in the Huzhou Mansion. ”

As soon as she thought of Chen Dong, An Ying felt bloody, and she didn't expect Chen Dong to be this style at all.

"Eh, can I find Master Su? I feel that I can talk to Su Dazhi. ”

"What? Can't talk to me? Chen Dong passed by early in the morning, and listened to the conversation between Lao Guo and the girl of the An family, and originally thought that he didn't care, but he was not happy to hear this, how come everyone likes the kid of the Su family!

An Ying was startled, turned around and hurriedly saluted, his heart quickly spun, how to say?

"What? Haven't thought of a word yet? Chen Dong sneered, and the laughing An Ying's hair stood on end.

An Ying looked at Lao Guo who was pretending to be dead on the side, gritted his teeth and said, "Lord Chen has lifted the little girl." Master Chen happened to be there, and the little girl was cheeky and begged for a hand. I'll go to Huzhou Mansion to explore. ”

"Are you doing it for Luo Qiaoniang's last wish? She almost killed your father, or even implicated the three clans, you were either exiled or sold to the officials as slaves. I heard that Xiao Su still wants to recruit you into the Criminal Department, I think this kind of indiscriminate kindness will cause trouble in the future! ”

An Ying and Chen Dong have been together for a while, and it is rare to hear him say so much, although she doesn't like it, but fortunately, she understands, she saluted seriously: "It's not entirely for Luo Qiaoniang, the main thing is that I want to figure it out." I've had this temper since I was a child, otherwise I wouldn't be able to eat or sleep well with this thing in my heart. ”

Chen Dong looked at her, his face was expressionless, he grabbed the pen on the desk, and wrote, "Okay, you are not from the Criminal Department, you don't have a car or horse to travel, you pay for it yourself." The Huzhou Mansion is looking for Shi Yongming, the newly appointed Shaoyin of the Huzhou Mansion. ”

An Ying arrived in Huzhou smoothly, she has been back and forth many times on this official road, compared to the previous embarrassment, this time with Lord Chen Dong's note, she can live in the official post stations along the way for free, which is much easier and safer.

She first found an acquaintance introduced by Yang Ye and caught Wang Da quickly.

"Oh, Secretary Cheng, it's not familiar. He and the people of the government moved around less. Wang Dada took a sip of sheep soup and continued: "He moved from Qiantang Mansion, and I heard that he was introduced by his previous superiors. But one day we were drinking together, and he came, and we talked about it, he was really good at the peak, and he arranged a good place for his subordinates before he said goodbye. Guess what Cheng Lu said? ”

Wang Da continued: "Cheng Lu said that Guo Feng's old thief, where did he get any kindness, if he hadn't received a large amount of filial piety, where would the arrangement come from? ”

An Ying said strangely: "That means that Cheng Lu bought Guo Feng to arrange an errand?" Cheng Lu seems to have an ordinary family, and what is worth a little money is the small house in Qiantang Mansion, and I heard that there is an old mother in the family and five or six children. It seems that he really has no money to live, so he gave up the Jinshi exam. ”

"Not really. He rented out the house in Qiantang Mansion, and rented a courtyard in the corner in the north of Huzhou City, and the whole family lived on his one tael of silver a month, and he even wanted to take home the lunch provided by the government office. So on weekdays, everyone eats and drinks together, and he rarely participates. That time, he went because Wang Jiaotou was promoted to invite guests. He only came from Qiantang Mansion in recent years, and he has no foundation, no money, and he doesn't have much contact with other clerks on weekdays. ”

An Ying thought in her heart, probably the money that bought Guo Feng was also given by the Wang family's family in the Wang Steroid case, and she asked again: "How does Cheng Lu usually do things in the mansion?" Is there such a thing as blackmailing the relatives of prisoners? ”

"Not really. Cheng Lu is cautious, how dare he do these things. Besides, Miss An has also heard of helping in the government office in the past few days, the original Fu Yin and Shao Yin are fighting more than once, and the civil officials in the government are divided into these two factions during this period, and we who are swaying on the street are not involved in this matter. This faction fights with each other like black corns, but there is a benefit, no one dares to do things that use power for personal gain, and one is accidentally caught by the other party with pigtails. Wang Da continued: "But Miss An, you can also see that this factional struggle has caused those civil officials to not do practical things all day long. I heard that He Zhizhou was arrested, and our brothers are quite unhappy, and He Zhizhou is the one who is really working here. Those civil servants ordered a cigarette in the morning, had lunch and left, and we could easily catch a thief, and we couldn't find a single clerk to write a file. He Zhizhou can't do anything with these clerks, they are all people from Fu Yin or Shao Yin. Sometimes, Ho would ask the students of the college to help with some clerical work. ”

An Ying nodded, and asked again: "Then Cheng Lu can do things on weekdays, and it is the same as other documents?" ”

"I once handled a case, and the file was done by Cheng Lu, who was better than those clerks in the camp, but less responsible than those henchmen and clerks in He Zhizhou. How to say it, it's just that three or three of the noodles are made for you, and one more point is unwilling. My brother gave him a confession half an hour late, he packed up his things and went to the office on time, and it was not unequal to half a moment, and he would talk about it tomorrow when he went to the government on business. ”

"By the way, doesn't Cheng Lu have any relatives and friends in Huzhou?" An Ying suddenly thought of something, and continued to ask: "Otherwise, why would he spend money to move from Qiantang Mansion to Huzhou Mansion?" In terms of wealth, Huzhou can't compare to Qiantang, even if he moves up two levels here, it's not as good as other ways in Qiantang Mansion to make money, right? ”

Seeing that An Ying and Wang Da were chatting energetically, Yang Ye intimately called the mother-in-law on the street to come in and poured three bowls of orange peel and salted bean soup.

Wang Da took a sip of the hot soup and said, "I haven't heard of it, hey, where does his ancestral home come from?" ”

"His ancestral home is from Si County, Huizhou." An Ying remembered Cheng Lu's file.

"Yes, yes, he said that his hometown is in Si County, Huizhou, and there is no one in the family, and his wife is also picked up by him. However, he has an older sister who is married to Huzhou. Probably because my sister is in Huzhou, right? Wang Da thought for a while and said.

An Ying immediately asked, "Are you sure?" I hadn't heard that Cheng Lu had relatives in Huzhou before. ”

"No mistake, once I was on patrol in the north of the city, and I happened to meet him walking by with a food box. I chatted with him for a few words, and he took out a few Qingtuan from the food box and brought them to me, saying that he had just come out of his sister's house, and that his sister had brought him home to eat. But I don't know if it's my sister. ”

"Do you remember where it was north of the city?" An Ying felt as if something important was going on.

"Probably near the bridge in the north of the city." Wang Da asked strangely while eating.

Wang Da took another sip of soup, suddenly remembered something, involuntarily plucked his ears with his hand, and said: "But when you say this, I think that Cheng Lu's sister seems to be also making tea, and she should go with your family." When he gave me the Youth League, he said casually that his sister was busy making tea and had to rush the Youth League at home these days. Your family is a tea shop, and you know that Qingming will be the busiest time for tea households, and I think his sister should also be a tea household. ”

Wang Da looked at the sun outside and said: "Miss An, thank you for having dinner, fortunately eat something to pad, I went out early in the morning and there was nothing at home, and I walked hungry for a long time." I still have to continue patrolling, I'll go first. ”

An Ying chatted with Wang Da for a whole day before leaving, she walked on the road while looking down, and accidentally bumped into a person, she quickly apologized and raised her head suddenly, "Master Su, why are you here!" ”

Su Huangzhe smiled, "I have the same problem as you. ”

"Huh?" An Ying didn't understand.

"I don't know a little, so I keep thinking about it." Su Huangzhe pointed to the burden that An Ying was holding, "It seems that you haven't remembered much, what's the matter, you have a clue?" ”

An Ying nodded, "Do you remember the confessions of the villagers of Shuanglin Village?" ”

"Well, I basically remember, how do you say that?"

"Let's go to a tea shop and have something to eat, I have a few questions. You can also look at what I remember first. ”

In the tea shop, Su Huang Zhefei flipped through the thick notes, and An Ying said: "I always feel that Zheng Ping has played a very important role here. ”

Su Huangzhe looked at the piles of confessions and said, "But as I analyzed with you last time, whether Zheng Ping really deliberately misled Luo Qiaoniang or not, it was Luo Huanniang's matter that finally made Luo Qiaoniang take risks. ”
