Chapter 42 Confusing(1/2)

One hour later, the county government.

County magistrate Zhang Yuanqing, wearing a light green official robe, stood respectfully on the side of the lobby, looking at his eyes, nose and heart.

Zhou He, who was calm and gentle, Yang Ting, who was silent, and even Yang Dabiao, who was not in good shape, seemed to have changed his body at this time, and his hands were bowed down, and he could see a bit of restraint from his standing posture.

After the long case where the county magistrate was sitting, a middle-aged man in a python robe leaned against a large chair, holding a white porcelain tea cup in his hand, slowly scraping the floating tea leaves, and Zhu Wenyuan stood beside him holding a folding fan.

In the lobby, Li Jing, the Siye of the Academy, worshipped Huangfu Qi and Ji Shiqing, all surrounded Li Zixian, carefully checked the bones, skin, meridians, and qi points, and even took out the Eight Trigrams Mirror that could detect blood evil and evil.

Li Zi first faced the exaggerated lineup second only to the emperor, and no longer had the aura of a wealthy young man, and knelt on the ground and dared not move:

"Prince, I am really wronged. I have nothing to do with Yao Kou..."

Although the Dan King is a daughter slave, he is elegant and majestic, and the aura between his eyebrows is extremely oppressive:

"Did you order people to bury these three corpses in the farmland?"

"Yes, but not buried alive. These three people owed gambling debts and used workers to pay off their debts in the farm..."

"Li Zixian."

Zhu Wenyuan picked up the rent contract on the table and threw it on the ground:

"You are fooling ordinary servants, but even the prince dares to deceive you? You have ordered people to investigate the long-term workers and tenants in the farm and the gambling house managers. After confirming that these three people disappeared one after another after they were difficult to repay their debts, they have never seen each other. Do you think that forging a few IOUs can hide the truth?"

Li Zixian knew that he could not afford to investigate, but now he did not dare to admit his crime of burying alive.

Since the Dan King came to the scene to ask the case in person, he must have a fair and strict result.

Even if he has nothing to do with the demon gang, just the crime of burying three people alive is enough to sentence him to death.

So many people present watched. If the Dan King knew the truth and was still favored, what would the people of Danzhou think? What would the censors in the capital think?

You used the prince as a prince to serve the emperor and the emperor to Mudanzhou, so you can open a door of convenience for wealthy families and lick the stinky feet of powerful officials in the capital?

Li Zixian now pleads guilty and is likely to be on the tiger-headed guillotine. All he can do is grit his teeth and delay time and wait for the operation of the capital. Facing the questioning, he responded:

"These three people have been dead for half a year and have lost their IOUs. I was afraid that it was difficult to explain, so I was shocked by the lard, so I rewritten a few pictures. These three people did die of illness..."

Zhu Wenyuan pointed to the three skeletons outside the lobby:

"You mean, Danwang Pavilion and all the gentlemen in the Academy have taken a look?"

Li Zixian said sincerely: "I don't know the reason, but these three people are definitely not dead by magic."

"Then why do you think they died?"

"Sick... I'm dying..."

"What disease?"

"I don't know. I saw that it was impossible and I was cured. Let him wait for death..."

Li Zi made up his mouth first, and gradually sweated like rain.

As a Taoist sect, Ji Shiqing has been walking in southern Xinjiang for many years and belongs to the "demonic consultant" of the royal palace. After careful inspection, he got up and interrupted:

"Li Zixian has a normal body and has never been exposed to the Demonic Method. However, these three corpses must have died of the Demonic Art of Seizing the Yuan Dynasty."

Huangfu Qi touched the goatee, looked at the three skeletons, and nodded:

"It's true. The situation of the 'mcorpse case' in the capital is similar to these three corpses. Maybe it was caused by the same wave of demon enemies..."

Li Zixian saw that many masters were confident in their words and walked forward with two steps:

"Prince, this corpse must have been tampered with. I can swear to God..."

"Who will believe me if you make up a lot of things?"

Huangfu Qi looked unhappy and asked in a deep voice:

"Is it because the demon gang threatened his family and made you keep your mouth shut?"

"The demon gang did not threaten me..."

"oh?"

Huangfu Qi frowned and continued to ask: "You mean, the evil gang did not threaten you with words? Then why did you know and insist on concealing your whereabouts for him?"

"I...well?!"

Li Zixian realized that Huangfu Qi was in the trap, and his face suddenly changed:

"No demon gang threatened me, I have never contacted any demon gang..."

The Dan King had already seen that Li Zi was counting on the Li family to save him, and he would not recognize anything at the moment. He put down the teacup and waved his hand to Tie Fengzhang.

Tie Fengzhang has always been a tough guy. This time he didn't let his subordinates take action. He personally took the plywood and caught Li Zixian's fingers.

Li Zi first saw the Dan King preparing to be punished, and his face turned pale:

"Prince, the Li family must have been framed by those demon enemies, just like Sanhelou, Prince! King...ah——"

Screams rang out from the lobby.

Xie Jinhuan was standing outside the lobby as a melon-eating crowd, watching the whole process of interrogation, and actually felt a little confused.

He did not understand the Demonic Way Method, and at first he did not notice the abnormality inside the skull. It was the ghost wife who told the deceased that the deceased was killed by the Demonic Way, and his path was in line with the Demonic Way that hid the corpse cave!

The murderer who buried the corpse alive for this must be the mastermind or accomplice of the "Crazy Corpse Flower".

Judging from Li Zi's response first, the Li family was buried, and the mastermind behind the scenes was naturally the Li family.

But Li Zixian thought that being wronged was not like pretending, and the Sanhelou incident could not be explained. If the demon gang secretly framed him and tampered with the corpse, this method would be a bit too powerful...

Xie Jinhuan was thinking about it secretly, but had not figured out the reason yet, suddenly he heard a sound from the side:

"You're Xie Jinhuan?"

"Um?"

Xie Jinhuan suddenly came back to his senses. In a blink of an eye, he saw the gentle and respectful Dan King, unable to bear to see people suffer from flesh and blood, and had already walked out of the lobby.

Although Xie Jinhuan lived in the capital for sixteen years, he had never had contact with the top-level powerful people. The Dan King was the biggest official he had ever met. Seeing this, he bowed:

"Meet the prince."

The Dan King carefully looked at Xie Jinhuan's appearance and a little praise appeared in his eyes:

"I am young and have a lot of skills. If you hadn't been running around in recent days, the yamen would not have found so many clues. Thank you for your hard work."

Why did I work hard? If I don’t run around to check them, you have to run around to check me... Xie Jinhuan thought so in his heart, but on the surface he was still quite modest:

"The prince is too proud. The Caomin just wanted to resolve the chaos as soon as possible so that he could go back to the capital to visit relatives, but he did not make any efforts. He has made some contributions recently, and it was all well-behaved by Yang Weishi and Miss Linghu."

When Yang Dabiao heard this, he was shocked all over, and his eyes were probably - Oh! This brother is really good at dealing with him!

Linghu Qingmo was pressing the coal balls of the python dragon on the Dan King's body, and at this time he also showed a little ashamed.

"You are modest."

The Dan King has always seen Xie Jinhuan's name on the file these two days. Because of his father's death, his ability, integrity, modestness and incompetence, he will definitely not have a bad impression, and he said with a smile:

"Ling Zun died on duty, and his descendants should be taken care of by the court. You have grown up and are determined to arrest theft and ask for the people. How can the court not give you a chance?

"Continue to work harder in the future. When the case is over, I will write a letter to the emperor and ask the emperor to give you a good position."

?!

The many people following behind were envious when they heard this.

After all, King Dan and Emperor Qian are brothers who share hardships and are also officials with real power.

The Dan King personally recommended talents to the emperor, and I am afraid that the starting position will be in the sixth and seventh grade.

Xie Jinhuan is young and capable, and is also upright and versatile. He is very kind and has a worldly style. He gives him ten or twenty years to get to the three rows in front of Tai Chi Hall and stand in front of the three rows.

When I come to Danyang again, it is estimated that only Dan King will dare to speak with his back.

Mo Mo, Mo Mo, may not dare to say anything...

Xie Jinhuan knew that the Dan King had good intentions, but the case of "Zihuishan Demonic Qi" was really solved, and he and the ghost wife should have been buried. He really couldn't handle this wealthy person. At this time, he was just a polite response:

"Thank you for your kindness, and Caomin will continue to work hard in the future."

The Dan King didn't say much, and quietly waited for Li Zi to confess first.

Everyone else's eyes were focused on Xie Jinhuan, with envy and appreciation.

Zhou He, a hundred-husband of Chilin Guard, who was standing in the lobby, seemed to be watching Li Zi be tortured first, but a hint of undetectable haze appeared in his eyes...

——

At night, in the villa by the river.

There was a painting table on the Linjiang terrace, and there was no one around. In the room where meditation and practice were meditating, Tai Shudan sat on the ground in a robe, and in front of him was a puppet.

The puppet was covered with a gray cloak, and the skin on both hands and cheeks was bronze, like a cast of gold and stone. There were complex spells on the surface of the skin. He was completely angry, but he was talking:

"Li Zi's mouth is very hard, and he killed the gambler and died of illness. He denied his connection with the demon gang. The Dan King is searching all the shops of the Li family's houses. If nothing unexpected happens, he can drag the matter until after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Please remember not to leak the news again."

The puppet was originally not conscious, and Tai Shudan didn't know why he could speak, but he still nodded in response to this explanation:

"Senior brother, don't worry, the mad corpse flowers have been collected, and you can start the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival the day after tomorrow. However, the Peony Pond is only twenty miles away from Danyang City. If the master in the city is alarmed by the blood evil spirit, he will not arrive for more than half a quarter of an hour, especially Mu Yunling..."
To be continued...
