The post station is full of people and looks chaotic. There are armor guards outside, but all of them are not in good spirits.

The Inspector was assassinated and died, and as a guardian, he had an unshirkable duty. This group of them will definitely be questioned and held accountable.

The head of the guard who led the team stood in the room with a gloomy face, watching the two servants conducting autopsies and various operations.

In the room, Ye Wangchun's henchmen and master and Chen Tang were all there. The scene looks quite subtle.

According to the narrative, there are many contradictions.

First of all, from last night to morning, the chief of the guard and the rest of the soldiers did not notice any unusual movement.

Under normal circumstances, a small post station, with so many soldiers and armor on guard, it is difficult for outsiders to sneak in and attack, let alone assassinate them unknowingly.

If you are not an outsider, you will only have a mole.

The spearhead is directed at the master.

But the master shouted to hit the sky, he had no motive to murder his own adult at all, and he was a weak scholar, and it was not easy to kill Ye Wangchun quietly. What's more, the master kept saying that early this morning, he also served the Inspector to get up and wash and eat breakfast.

In other words, in the morning, Ye Wangchun was fine. But when Chen Tang entered, Ye Wangchun died.

However, Chen Tang had no possibility of making a move, he was a county magistrate, and suddenly assassinated the patrol who came down to inspect, unless he lost his mind and went crazy.

The head of the guard turned his gaze around and finally rested on his toes, not knowing what he was thinking.

The master's eyes stared at Chen Tang viciously, as if he believed that he was the murderer. It's just that this mood always gives people a feeling of "deliberateness", and it has to be deliberately revealed to be clumsy.

From beginning to end, Chen Tang's expression seemed calm. Ye Wangchun's death is a homicide, but it is definitely not an unsolved case.

The problem is that in terms of the order of officialdom, the death of this inspector is itself an inextricable situation.

Because the person died, the result was irreversible. He died in the post station in Nanfu County, in front of Chen Tang.

Therefore, the focus of this matter is not on who the murderer is. It is equivalent to splashing a large bucket of pickled things over and splashing it on Chen Tang's body, thus staining his originally splendid career.

Such a thing can really be called an unwarranted disaster. But this is the rule of officialdom. If there is a problem in the jurisdiction, if there is an accident, the local officials will be held accountable. What's more, it's a patrol who is dead now?

After waiting for about half an hour, an old servant put down the object in his hand and said a little tiredly: "The preliminary results show that Lord Ye died under the short blade, and the time was about an hour ago. ”

In the absence of sophisticated instruments and laboratory procedures, the post-mortem is more dependent on the vision and experience of the work. In this way, there must be an error, which can only be approximate. Whether it is the time or the method of committing the crime, there may be mistakes.

Hearing this, the master immediately pointed at Chen Tang and said, "Lord Chen, your suspicion can't be washed away." ”

Chen Tang sneered: "You, you are even more suspicious." ”

"Good!"

The master said two "good" words in a row: "Then wait for someone from the state government to come, and naturally find out." ”

The chief of the guard said in a deep voice: "Then, you will make a good record of the case file, block the post station, and wait for the state official to come." Master Chen, what do you think?"

Chen Tang said: "I think the master is the most suspicious, and he should be taken down and interrogated." ”

When the master heard this, he laughed dryly, and stretched out his hand directly: "Lord Chen is so powerful, please send someone to arrest me, if you have any torture tools, just use them." If you don't kill me, I'll sue you. ”

He deliberately bit the word "death".

This is a typical hob meat attitude, as if Chen Tang wants to arrest him in prison.

Chen Tang's eyes narrowed, and a light flashed. He knew in his heart that there must be something wrong with this master, but if he really had to arrest someone and go to the torture and interrogation at this time, what kind of attitude would the people from the state government come to at that time? If the other party dies in prison, the matter will become even more complicated, and it will be equivalent to yellow mud falling off the crotch of his pants, and it will be if it is not.

Suddenly, Chen Tang felt an inexplicable sense of irritability. The official body of fame and fame can give people glory and wealth, but it is also equivalent to wearing a pair of shackles, with rules and regulations, and restrictions everywhere. After all, the rules in officialdom are the most numerous and the most stringent. Superiors and subordinates, superiors and subordinates, with clear hierarchies. Sometimes, even when you talk and walk, you have to be meticulous. But if there is a mistake, you may be thrown into the cold palace, and you will be ignorant of yourself.

As a county order, in Nanfu County, Chen Tang has the advantage of authority and can act cheaply. However, the current accident is not a problem with ordinary people, but a patrolman who has been killed. The most suspicious object is an experienced master, and if this is a specially set up bureau, there will definitely be a follow-up.

Many times, how things turn out depends on who the opponent is.

At this time, the chief guard said: "Master, please stay in the post station, and we will protect you, Lord Chen, what do you think?"

Chen Tang looked at him, pondering in his heart the meaning of "protection", which could be house arrest or something else.

After thinking about it, he said, "Okay." ”

These soldiers came to Nanfu County with them and obeyed Ye Wangchun's dispatch, after Ye Wangchun's death, their belonging became special, and in principle, they would not listen to Chen Tang. If Chen Tang tried to command them, it would be a big taboo.

Military power has always been the biggest taboo.

Let the master stay at the post station, he can't run, if something happens, there is also a soldier armor to bear, Chen Tang just took himself out. He didn't think that the armor had anything to do with the master, after all, the biggest responsibility for Ye Wangchun's death was actually borne by the armor guards.

So the case file was recorded, sealed, and the people from the state government came to hand it over to them for review in the future.

After finishing some more things, Chen Tang took Wang Mo to leave the post station and return to Yamen.

In the afternoon, Du Wangyun returned, and he led a group of fast arresters to patrol and search all over the city, but did not find any valuable clues.

In this regard, Chen Tang had already expected this, but just ordered them to go down, so that they could not relax and continue to keep an eye on it.

Du Wangyun responded to the order and went with a lot of heart.

In the hall, there were only two left, Chen Tang and Wang Mo.

Wang Mo couldn't help but ask, "My lord, could this matter be Ye Xun's hand under the enemy?"

As a patrol press, he inspected back and forth, and held the lifeblood of many magistrates' careers, so it was not surprising that he could not cover everything and had grievances with others.

"Maybe. ”

Chen Tang replied casually, there are some things that he doesn't want to say to Wang Mudo, which involves another world circle.

It's just that suddenly, Chen Tang found that he didn't know much about Huang Daozhi. Also, the other party seems to be deliberately keeping a distance and not letting him understand. Huang Daozhi's body seems to be shrouded in a fog, full of unknowns.

And the unknown often means danger!
