When going up the mountain, although there are clouds and mist in the sky, you can still see a little sunshine from time to time, and when Mr. Wei and the autumn equinox go down the mountain, there will be a light rain in the sky.

The two of them set off in the direction of the county government in this thin rain needle.

All the way to the gate of the county magistrate's mansion, which is not far from the county office.

Mr. Wei beckoned Han Qiufen, whispered a few words into his ear, and then walked up the steps.

Guobei County, the county government

Wiping his face with the towel presented by his servant, Mr. Wei was drinking tea alone in the front hall.

"If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, you shouldn't miss me. With three points of ridicule and two points of jokes, the county magistrate entered the house while talking, with a smile on his face, and it seemed that the cloudy and sunny weather did not affect his mood.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Mr. Wei bowed to the magistrate, and after the magistrate raised his hand, he sat back in his seat, pondered for a while, and slowly opened his mouth.

"The county's painting theft case can be closed, my lord. ”

"Oh? Pinching the handles of the chairs on both sides, his body moved from time to time, and the magistrate looked a little distracted.

Mr. Wei looked at Zhixian, his voice paused, and he picked up the tea beside him and moistened his mouth, "We caught a masked man dressed in black, and on the way to capture him, he died." As he spoke, he scraped the face of the tea with a tea lid, his eyes lowered, not knowing what he was looking at.

"Huh?" As the voice fell, the county magistrate stopped moving his body from time to time, the relaxed expression on his face disappeared, and he frowned without a trace, and then regained his composure and asked lightly.

The tea lid in his hand was pressed into the cup and sealed. Mr. Wei just folded his hands on his lap and held the teacup, raised his head again, and looked at the county magistrate, "What was found with him was the lost painting of the Zhou family." ”

The magistrate of the head did not speak in response, nor did he make any movements, his head was slightly sideways, and his hands still maintained the posture just now.

Mr. Wei knows the county master, he cherishes his wings, and he can't rub sand in his eyes, or rather, this little thing can't make his eyes fascinated by sand.

"In fact, the dead are the real surprise. ”

Zhixian leaned his body on the back of the chair behind him, relaxed his body, and looked at the dark clouds outside the hall that were gradually dissipating, and the little spots of light that were scattered.

"Go on..."

"As far as the grass people know, it won't be long before the general judge who came down from above will arrive.

At that time, he will make judgments on the political achievements of adults over the years, and this is about to be evaluated, and the four major performance evaluation goals are local education, case trial, production supervision, and tax collection. But now that the other three except for the trial of the case have all come to an end, it is impossible to help the adults improve.

However, there is someone behind this dead man, and that is opportunity. ”

"I don't understand..."The county magistrate shook his head and said a little confused.

"I think that the real people behind the scenes must also be struggling with the traces of the paintings, and they must have planned something. ”

The county magistrate's eyes lit up, he came to his senses, and straightened up, "You want to use this painting to break these invisible plans?"

"Your Excellency is really wise!" said a compliment loudly, and Mr. Wei bent down again with some admiration on his face.

The county magistrate lay down from the beginning, waved his hand in the direction of Mr. Wei as he spoke, and his face relaxed a little, "Okay, assisting the government to arrest the murderer is a commendable thing, after the murderer was caught, he intended to hurt people, and it was not your fault that he accidentally killed the murderer by mistake in self-defense." ”

Mr. Wei understands the county order, and the county order also understands Mr. Wei.

He knew that this private school gentleman was a talented person, and once he made a move, things were rarely messed up.

As for whether the murderer is the murderer or not, he doesn't care, he only talks, the murderer is a stupid reckless man, or a smart person who is beneficial to him. The magistrate wants to go further, to be the governor of Zhou, and then to be the prefect, and to be the official of the frontier, the same as his grandfather, and even higher than his grandfather.

Speaking in a soft voice, the magistrate looked at the person in front of him and smiled, "Remember to bring things over tomorrow." ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Mr. Wei bent down, took two steps back, and left.

At dusk, before the lights were turned on, the orange light in the house contrasted with the beautiful sky outside, and everything inside seemed to be covered with a dark color, both clear and hazy. And it was the flame-like color of the sky that caused all this, the warm-looking light in the sky.

Zhixian was sitting in the room at this time, in this dark and unknown room, his face seemed to slowly freeze, blending with the surrounding environment, and from a distance, it looked like a cold bronze statue without temperature.

In Guobei County

Han Qiu Equinox is still busy, Mr. Wei can only go home by himself, on the way to pass by the mutton wine shop, not far from the way home there is a small river, not wide, above the bridge road paved with stone slabs.

Not only can the sea hold the setting sun, but so can the stream. Looking at the discolored lake and the sunset that was about to kiss the water, Mr. Wei took a deep breath of air and shook his head.

"At the end of the year, I'm leaving..."
