Chapter 407 The whole group was surprised(1/2)
Regarding the drowning incident, on the third day of the investigation, the weather was still cloudy and rainy, but in order not to delay the progress, the nobles were also constantly asking when they could release the person.
At Yan Hui's suggestion, Ju Brigade had to dispatch all the Qin officials in Luoyin City and began to investigate with great fanfare. The method was still the old method of making a group visit.
The first step is to find the village where the deceased lived and ask the local people whether the deceased had any friends before his death or if there were any witnesses.
Under such huge commotion, not to mention the people of Luoyin City, even Xunzhou, Lin Anshun and others who lived in Bai Yan's mansion heard about it.
"As long as no evidence is found, those people will probably be drowned!"
Xunzhou and Lin Anshun were walking down the corridor. The two men were wearing Qi official uniforms, and they seemed to have quite good temperaments.
The two people who were going to find Tian Ding were naturally talking about the things that were currently spreading in Luoyin City. Unlike the people in Luoyin City, the people thought that those people had drowned, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that this
There are twists and turns inside.
"But as I said before, it would be impossible to find evidence on this matter."
Lin Anshun was the city commander of Jucheng in Qi State. He was deeply aware of the difficulty of thorough investigation of this kind of murder case. Without evidence, it was basically impossible to find out the whole story.
"I heard that those people gave reasons for looking for the villagers. It has been determined that they are looking for those two villagers."
While Lin Anshun was talking, he suddenly saw a maid coming in front of the two of them and blocking their way.
See the situation.
Lin Anshun and Xunzhou immediately stopped.
"Two adults, General, please move to the study room!"
The maid said to Lin Anshun and Xunzhou, glanced at them calmly, then turned around and led the way.
Lin Anshun and Xunzhou looked at each other, a little confused, but after thinking about it, Lin Anshun nodded first. After Xunzhou responded, they both followed the maid to the study.
After a while.
Following Lin Anshun, Xunzhou followed the maid to the study, where he saw Bai Yan who had been waiting.
"Bai Yan, I have met Mr. Lin and Mr. Xun!"
Bai Yan stood up from the wooden table and bowed his hands to the two of them.
"General Bai!"
When Lin Anshun and Xunzhou saw Bai Yan, they bowed their hands and saluted. After the ceremony, they looked at Bai Yan with doubts in their eyes, wondering why Bai Yan suddenly called them alone.
Watching Bai Yan ask them to take their seats, neither Lin Anshun nor Xunzhou refused.
However, after they knelt down in front of the wooden table and saw Bai Yan holding two scrolls of bamboo slips and placing them in front of them, they became even more suspicious.
"General Bai, what do you mean?"
Xunzhou took the lead and stretched out his hand to the bamboo slips, looked at Bai Yan and asked.
As a senior official in the State of Qi and a well-known talent in Linzi, Xunzhou was very resistant to accepting bribes. Moreover, Xunzhou was born in the famous Xun family and was not short of money at all, not to mention beauties.
Lin Anshun was not in a hurry to open the bamboo slips in front of him. It was not that Lin Anshun had not seen what Bai Yan had done to Hou Yao in the past few days. However, apart from Tian Ding telling Hou Yao not to talk nonsense, the two of them could not say anything.
What.
After all, Hou Yao was Hou Sheng's eldest son, and it was Hou Yao's right to have a good relationship with Bai Yan.
"Don't worry, you two. These are the bamboo slips sent by Yanmen two days ago. Because you were busy these two days, Bai Yan didn't have the chance to inform you, so I invited you here today!"
Bai Yan looked at Xunzhou and Lin Anshun and explained with a smile, showing that he had no ill intentions in his words.
"Yanmen?"
"Yanmen!"
When Lin Anshun and Xunzhou heard Bai Yan's words, they looked at each other and frowned.
The two of them couldn't figure out why Bai Yan wanted to show them the news about Yanmen. Could it be a war? Or was he deliberately deceiving them with false news?
But no matter what.
After hearing the news from Yanmen, they both decided to take a look at what was written on the bamboo slips.
So under Bai Yan's gaze, Lin Anshun took the lead to pick up the bamboo slips on the wooden table. After Xunzhou glanced at Bai Yan suspiciously, he also picked up the bamboo slips on the wooden table, opened them and looked at them.
It would have been nice not to see it, but once they saw it, the two of them were shocked and their breathing became rapid.
The first is Xunzhou, who was the most determined just now. When he learned that his clan brother Xun Shuo, who had run away from home, was in Yanmen and working as a diner under Bai Yan, his whole expression became unbelievable.
Xunzhou naturally knows his abilities, and unlike Pang Juan and Sun Bin, although they are both great talents, they never envy each other, but have an extremely good relationship. Therefore, when they learned that Xun Shuo was in Yanmen, Xunzhou immediately
He raised his head and looked at Bai Yan with shocked eyes.
Xunzhou is like this, and Lin Anshun is even worse.
Although Lin Anshun was not young, he was a famous official in Qi State. He won the trust of the King of Qi and served as the city magistrate of Jucheng.
But just as Mr. Wei said, Mr. Wei raised Lin Anshun as his own grandson, and Lin Anshun also regarded Mr. Wei as the person closest to him, with a higher status than his wife and children.
Looking at the writing on the bamboo slips, Lin Anshun's eyes turned red.
"Why is my brother willing to serve you?"
Xunzhou slowly put away the bamboo slips, placed them on the wooden table, and asked softly. At this time, Xunzhou no longer called Bai Yan general, but became more straightforward.
This is also a kind of honesty.
In the world, most people will be very polite when they meet for the first time. If the relationship is not good, they will still be the same the second time. This is a kind of defense to hide their true thoughts.
"Xun Shuo's character is a human being. Mr. Xun should understand him better than Bai Yan!"
Bai Yan did not answer Xunzhou's question, but asked the question to Xunzhou.
Lin Anshun heard Xun Shuo's name in Bai Yan's words and turned to look at Xunzhou beside him. Lin Anshun, who had been friends with Xunzhou for many years, naturally knew Xun Shuo very well. Xunzhou had praised that Su countless times.
Xun Shuo whom I have never met.
Think of this.
Lin Anshun glanced at the bamboo slips in front of Xunzhou, turned his head and looked at Bai Yan.
"What do you want from the two of us?"
Lin Anshun asked softly. Although he had not seen the scroll of bamboo slips in front of Xunzhou, Lin Anshun had already guessed very closely, so now Lin Anshun wanted to know what Bai Yan wanted them to do.
Although he and Xun Shuo don't have much contact with Bai Yan at the moment, since Wei Lao and the Xunzhou clan brothers are willing to follow Bai Yan, they will naturally be willing to help Bai Yan in other matters as long as they are not allowed to betray Qi.
Yan.
Inside the Luoyin official residence.
After a tiring journey all day long, he returned to the government office and had just taken off his bamboo hat. Before he had rested for long, he saw Luo Li slowly coming to the study, accompanied by a few servants.
"Your Majesty, you have worked hard today. I have specially ordered the maid to prepare a fine wine and banquet. Now, Master Yan has gone to the house to take a bath, and is waiting for you to go!"
When Luo Li saw Ju Li, he smiled and stepped forward to say goodbye.
Ju Lu was already used to seeing Luo Li. He had a full understanding of Luo Li's enthusiasm in the past two days, but what Ju Lu didn't expect was that Yan Hui would be so blatantly close to Luo Mansion.
You must know that General Zuo Geng Bai Yan ordered people to arrest Luo and Fan. He was obviously saying that Luo and Fan ordered people to kill them and faked their drowning.
"It's okay, it's getting late today, so I won't bother Luo Jun!"
Ju Li bowed his hands in front of Luo Li and politely declined.
Although the Ju Brigade did not want to offend Luo, they could not afford to offend Zuo Geng General Bai Yan.
"How can there be any talk of trouble, and why should you refuse to do so?"
Luo Li looked at Ju Lu, who had declined for two consecutive days, and asked softly, his words full of sincerity.
However, Luo Li's answer was only Ju Lu's smile and courtesy.
See the situation.
Luo Li had to give up, but the purpose of this trip to Luo Li was not just an invitation.
"By the way, what can be found out today? If my servant is not guilty, I hope you will be merciful and order his release! Master Yan also said, why should an innocent person be imprisoned?"
Luo Li raised his hands and saluted Ju Lu.
When Ju Brigade heard what Luo Li said, he didn't know what Luo Li's purpose was, and it was not the first time he mentioned it in the past two days. However, because he was the person captured by General Zuo Geng, Ju Brigade did not dare to order his release easily.
Now facing Luo Li's repeated inquiries, Julu knew that continuing like this was indeed not an option.
We have sent people to inquire about the deceased people, and the answers they received were all correct. The villagers who drowned did not offend anyone in the past, and they did not have any grudges with anyone.
As for those servants, it is true that they have a debt relationship with those two villagers.
"Although General Zuo Geng has no authority to accept this case, he still needs to inform General Zuo Geng about this matter! And he needs the credit of Mr. Yan and Mr. Zhang before he can be released!"
The whole group looked at Luo Li.
Unexpectedly, when Luo Li heard what Ju Lu said, he turned around with a smile, and then asked his servant to take a roll of bamboo slips. After Luo Li took the bamboo slips, he gave it to Ju Lu.
The whole group held the bamboo slips, but they still didn't know that Luo Li had come prepared.
After opening the bamboo slip and reading its contents, he stood up and raised his hands to Luo Li.
"Luo Jun will go back first, and I will go to General Zuo Geng's residence to ask for instructions!"
Ju Lu said to Luo Li.
Although he held the bamboo slips and had the credit granted by Master Yan who accompanied the review, as well as the credit granted by Master Zhang of Luoyin, the brigade decided to go to the General's Mansion just to be on the safe side.
After all, it was General Zuo Geng who captured the man.
"Thank you!"
When Luo Li heard what Ju Lu said, he raised his hands and said, with a smile on his face when he lowered his head.
