The next day, after everyone had breakfast, Song Yingxing asked Guo Yonghuai to find Chen Xionghua, who was in the cave room together at that time, and asked about it, and what he said was about the same as what Tian Guixiang said.

Song Yingxing looked at him and asked, "What industry do you have?"

Chen Xionghua said respectfully: "Returning to the adult, the villain is a carpenter, which is a craft passed down from generation to generation. ”

"Oh, and have you worked as a carpenter in all the surrounding villages?"

"Yes, we can't do without making houses and furniture, so we are people who eat hundreds of meals and do hundreds of jobs, and we are familiar with all the villages!" Chen Xionghua said proudly.

Song Yingxing asked again: "Then have you seen the current Guo Tianlong?"

"Ah, my lord is talking about this Guo Tianlong who borrowed the corpse to resurrect his soul, uh, uh..."

"If you have anything to say, I'll be the master for you. "Song Yingxing's temperament as a big official is undoubtedly revealed.

"Yes, my lord, he said that it was Cao Yang who had just died in Tonglu Village next door, but I worked in Cao's father's house last year, and there seems to be no Cao Yang in the family, they have few families, and Cao's father has two daughters, but I have never heard of a son named Cao Yang. ”

"Oh, I heard that he once passed on to a distant relative as a son, and this time he came back to recognize his ancestor when he was seriously ill, but he didn't expect to die of illness as soon as he came back. Guo Laohan said.

Song Yingxing hurriedly said: "I only have one son, how can I pass it on to someone else?"

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Chen Xionghua said again: "I have a friend who said that this Cao Yang is like Xu Guangxian from their Cen Village. ”

"Cen Village?"

"It's more than sixty miles away from here, and it no longer belongs to our Hualing County area. ”

Taichen was confused, how could it be so complicated.

Song Yingxing was very happy and said, "Can you invite that friend here? I want to meet him, how about it?"

Chen Xionghua nodded: "He just came a few days ago, and he is still living in my house!" After speaking, he saluted and left.

Song Yingxing said something in Guo Yonghuai's ear, Guo Laohan nodded again and again, and everyone dispersed.

Song Yingxing said to Taichen and Min Xiaorong: "The two bengongs, can you go to Tonglu Village together?"

The two nodded, so the three of them rode straight to Tonglu Village.

In the evening, Guo Yonghuai set up a large table of good wine and food, feasted Song Yingxing, and invited several elders of the family, especially let Guo Tianlong sit with him, because Lord Song found a good errand for Guo Tianlong in the Yamen of Hualing Prefecture, and Han Shengyu, the governor of Hualing County, was his classmate, and he had asked the servants to send him a letter, which was really a happy event.

Guo Yonghuai is happy, Guo Tianlong is even more excited, Tian Guixiang dressed him well, and gave a salute: "Official, it seems that our husband and wife are about to soar, enter the Guo family, become rich, and now meet such a big official, just give us a little promotion, and the days will grow wings and fly." ”

"It's all the work of the lady!"

"Okay, there is nothing else to be courteous, just be kind to my mother in the future, go quickly, you must do your best to accompany Lord Song. ”

"Don't worry, don't you know how much I'm drinking? Guo Tianlong said with a smile.

Tian Guixiang sent him out of the room, still couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, he didn't expect it all to go very well, it had exceeded his plan, and when Guo Tianlong did an errand in the state city, the couple left this remote village to live in the city, it was a fairy day, and life was really beautiful.

Everyone drank and chatted at the same time, Guo Tianlong was very good at drinking, he had endured it for so many days, and he could finally drink happily today, so he must toast this official more.

He raised his glass over and over again, "My lord, I'll do it first as a respect, you are free, you are free!"

Lord Song looked at him and smiled, and every time he finished pouring a glass, he licked it symbolically. The others also pushed the cup and changed the glass, and drank so well.

Gradually, many people drank too much, Guo Laohan left first, then several other Guo elders, and then Min Xiaorong also left, and finally only Song Yingxing, Taichen, and Guo Tianlong were left!

Guo Tianlong was already drunk, his tongue was big, he was walking unsteadily, there were already four figures in front of him, and they couldn't tell the difference, but in fact, there were really two other people coming in, Chen Xionghua and his friend Xiao Liuzi.

Guo Tianlong's drunken eyes were hazy, and it seemed that he was his childhood playmate Xiao Liuzi in front of him, and he became proud: "I said Xiao Liuzi, you, why are you also here, come and come, accompany your Brother Xian to have a few drinks, and tell you, soon, right away, your Brother Xian is going to have good luck, you see, I, rich, and married my cousin Gui'er, and now a big official has taken a fancy to me, and soon I will go to the Yamen of Hualing Prefecture City as an errand, your Brother Xian is amazing, come on, drink." ”

"Brother Xian, I can't drink enough, I can't drink. Xiao Liuzi begged for mercy.

"Uh, Xiao Liuzi, this is your fault, every time you drink, it's like this, it's not interesting enough, today! As long as you accompany me, as long as I have a bite to eat in the future, I'll leave you a copy, hey! Who is this friend?" he saw Chen Xionghua.

Chen Xionghua hurriedly shouted: "Brother Guo, you drank too much, I don't know you, don't you know?"

"Brother Guo, who is your name?"

"Aren't you Guo Tianlong?"

"Guo Tianlong" laughed and said, "Who is Guo Tianlong? I, I, Xu Guangxian, do you know? ”

"And who is Cao Yang?" another voice sounded slowly.

Xu Guangxian's brain was buzzing, and he couldn't tell who was who? He muttered vaguely: "Who is Cao Yang? Who is Guo Tianlong? What do these people have to do with me? Hehehe! It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. He finally couldn't hold on anymore and slowly collapsed to the ground.

Song Yingxing looked at Xu Guangxian who was lying on the ground and was asleep, everything was understood, and everyone present could imagine the real situation, so he asked the servant to send Xu Guangxian back to the room. Walking out of the inner room Guo Yonghuai and the elders in the village, Guo Laohan was so angry that he slammed the cups and bowls on the table on the ground, stomped his feet and scolded: "Traitor, traitor, he actually used this method to deceive me, damn it, he used my dead son Guo Tianlong to sneak into my house to eat and use, and also persecuted my daughter-in-law, this thousand knives killed." ”

Song Yingxing persuaded Guo Laohan for a while, and everyone also said: "Brother Guo, now that the situation is gradually clear, you should feel relieved, bring these people to justice, Guo Tianlong's grievances will soon be revealed." ”

Song Yingxing then asked everyone to go back to rest, and tomorrow will be the time for the case to be in broad daylight.

The next morning, a team of more than ten people came from Hualing City, headed by a deputy general of the Yamen of the state and county, this person was a military general, named Tang Yilu, he had seen Song Yingxing: "Lord Song, the young general has seen Lord Song, after our Lord Han read the letterhead of the adult, let me lead the team to hurry over, and everything obeys the instructions of the lord." ”

Song Yingxing said happily: "There is Deputy General Lao Tang, take the servants to finish breakfast, and ask about the case." ”

In the main hall of Guo's family, Song Yingxing sat in the right position, next to Guo Yonghuai and several elders in the village, Taichen and Min Xiaorong sat on the left side, Deputy General Tang stood on the side with officers and soldiers, and Zou Ping, the county Cheng of Wengan Town, to which Kuoshu Village belonged, also brought four officials to the scene, the case had already been reported to the state and county after the county government closed the case, and now it was to be retried.

Song Yingxing said loudly: "Everyone, I am already a person who has been demoted, according to the saying that I should not interfere in this matter, I happened to pass by the day before yesterday, and found that something was wrong, Guo Yonghuai was very sad, and he also begged me to redress his grievances, so he had to take over, as the saying goes: Traveling thousands of miles and managing the injustice of the world, a common man should have the responsibility to fight against evil, not to mention us, right!"

Taichen nodded appreciatively, and Min Xiaorong whispered to him: "It seems that he is really a very good official, but it's a pity..."

Taichen hurriedly said: "Don't sigh for him, he will be promoted again, and gold will always shine." ”

"Hmm!" Min Xiaorong also smiled and nodded.

Song Yingxing continued: "Everyone here in this case should be clear, in fact, if you think about it carefully, you will know how ridiculous it is, there is actually a thing of resurrecting the soul by borrowing a corpse, do you all believe it? Okay, bring Tian Guixiang and Guo Tianlong." ”

"Guo Tianlong" was drunk all night, and was groggy and was called up by Tian Guixiang, he said a little unhappily: "I have a headache, why do you wake me up and let me sleep for a while." ”

"Get up, get up, it's almost noon, it seems that there are a lot of officers and soldiers in the house, and the servants say that they are from Hualing County, I don't know what is going on?"

"What can happen?"

"Did you make a mistake last night, did you talk nonsense? ”

"No, by the way, it seems that I have seen Xiao Liuzi. ”

"Which little six?"

"It's from our village, the sixth child of the Xu Liang family behind my house, thin and thin, looks like a monkey. ”

"Oh, a little impressive, but why did he come here? so far away, and no one knew him, how could he have been able to enter the house at night?"

"yes, yes! I guess I'm in a trance, I'm dazzled!"

"Then what are the people from the county doing?"

"Hey, hey, lady, maybe you picked me up on an errand?"

"You're beautiful! It's not like you're going to be the lord of the state and county, and you still need someone to pick you up on any errand. ”

"Young Master, Young Lady, my lord, please go to the main hall. A servant shouted at the door.

"Okay, I'll be right there. Tian Guixiang agreed: "Maybe you really said it and took you to take office." Let's go, let's go!"

The two came to the main hall, where a lot of people gathered, and there were soldiers standing guard, looking at their majestic demeanor, Tian Guixiang's scalp was numb, and she had a faint feeling of unease.

Looking at Song Yingxing on the right seat, the two hurriedly knelt down and saluted, singing: "The villain has seen Lord Song, kowtow to the adult." ”

There was no sound, the two of them knelt for a long time, no one asked them to get up, Tian Guixiang couldn't help but look up slightly, and she trembled with fright.
