When he actually walked into the lobby of the government office, Xie Qingyun's perception was subverted. In previous film and television dramas, central places like this always gave people a sense of grandeur; but in fact, due to the backward construction technology, the overall

It is rather dark and rough. In short: it is more shocking than beautiful. For example, the bluestone floor under your feet is much smoother than even the cement paths in modern towns, let alone the water-polished marble floors in every household.

Four red lanterns are hung high on the beams at the entrance, and a horizontal plaque in the middle reads: Political Affairs Hall. Under the plaque, wooden couplets in gold are hung on the pillars on both sides, and then there are six three-bay dark doors, which are now open.

The lobby is spacious and bright, with four pillars on both sides, and a small door opening on the left and right for daily access, also known as the corner door. The door will only be opened when major cases are handled, which means "honesty and justice".

The four pillars reach the sky, and a torture rack is placed in front of each, with killing sticks and various torture instruments on top.

When Xie Qingyun and Xie Yuandi arrived, several government officials were escorting a middle-aged man with an earthy face into the lobby and roughly pressing him to the ground.

On the way here, Xie Yuandi briefly explained that it turned out that the government office also had an affiliated office, which was responsible for the public security, civil affairs, criminal affairs and other important affairs of Baojing County. Although the ownership of the third class was not so clear, in name it

But it was led by the county magistrate attached to the small government office.

The county magistrate of the attached Yamen is named Zhang Shenlin, and he is the middle-aged man kneeling under the lobby at this time.

Gao Liang is nominally his subordinate.

There was a "bang" sound, and Li Jiran glared at Zhang Shenlin angrily: "County Magistrate Zhang, do you know your guilt?"

Zhang Shenlin trembled and said: "Sir, please tell me what crime this official has committed..."

Li Jiran shouted: "The case of Leng Ningxiang was concealed from me and was not reported. What are your intentions?"

"It's unjust, sir," Zhang Shenlin looked like he was about to cry, "That was done by Gao Liang himself, and I have no idea about this matter..."

"Leng Ningxiang's body was found three days ago. You tell me you didn't know?" Li Jiran became furious, grabbed the signing box on the table and threw it out. Zhang Shenlin was so frightened that he fell to the ground and held his head, shouting:

"It's unfair, sir..."

Li Jiran smashed everything, but there was nothing on the case. He had nothing to smash for a while, and his face turned red.

Seeing him like this, Xie Qingyun was afraid that he would suffer a stroke or have a cerebral hemorrhage when he got excited, so he quickly comforted him and said: "Master, please calm down, why don't you come down and ask."

Li Jiran glanced at him and said coldly: "I am handling the case, others should not comment!"

This smelly old man is getting angry... Xie Qingyun couldn't help but think of his old man: "Your Excellency, I don't think this County Magistrate is lying. I only want to ask him one question. Please give me your permission."

Li Jiran kept a cold face for a long time, and finally nodded slowly.

Xie Qingyun received permission and immediately said to Zhang Shenlin: "May I ask County Magistrate Zhang where is Leng Ningxiang's body now?"

Zhang Shenlin said in confusion: "What is Leng Ningxiang? I don't know, I don't know..."

Xie Qingyun and Li Jiran looked at each other and their eyes flashed. The latter nodded slightly and signaled Xie Qingyun to continue asking. Xie Qingyun understood and continued to ask: "Have you found a female corpse in the suburbs recently?"

Zhang Shenlin thought about it carefully, and then said: "We did find a female body. She was going to her parents' home to visit her relatives. She was attacked by a wild beast and died on the way. We sent someone to notify her family and ask her family to claim the body.

But he hasn’t come yet.”

Xie Qingyun said: "Then the body will be placed in Yizhuang?"

Zhang Shenlin said: "There is nothing we can do about it. Once the unclaimed body stinks, everyone will not be able to work properly."

Xie Qingyun thought for a while and suddenly said: "Take someone to Yizhuang immediately to see if the female body is still there. If it is, bring it to the government office and call the widower by the way."

Li Jiran saw him giving orders naturally, his face turned dark, and he thought to himself, are you an official or am I an official? But seeing that Zhang Shenlin did not go, but looked at him cautiously, he felt more comfortable and said with a straight face: "Press him

Do as you say, this is your chance to atone for your sins, so take advantage of it."

"Yes, yes, I will definitely try my best!" Zhang Shenlin was overjoyed and quickly got up and ran out.

Li Jiran stood up, gave Xie Qingyun a look, and then walked towards the small back door of the Yamen. Xie Qingyun followed naturally, followed closely by Xie Yuandi. All the remaining Yamen servants in the hall looked at each other, thinking that the door was opened because it was a big case.

At least I could enjoy playing with a wooden board, and the one I was playing was the magistrate, who was usually aloof and aloof. Unexpectedly, the magistrate picked it up high and then put it down gently.

…

In the small hall of the back office, Li Jiran went to sit down. He glanced at the two people who followed him, and fixed his eyes on Xie Qingyun: "You solved the case in Yunzhou, and the governor disappeared after saying no; now you have to take care of me in Hezhou."

Do you also want to give me a hard time about the case?"

It's not like I killed Tang Tanfu... Xie Qingyun said innocently: "Why did the Lord say this?"

Li Jiran said calmly: "Let me ask you, do you have to take care of this case?"

There is definitely something wrong with that smelly fox. I have to find her out... Xie Qingyun said: "Many people have been victims of this case. If we leave it alone, there will be more and more victims."

Li Jiran raised the corner of his mouth quietly and said: "Okay, then I will give you this opportunity and leave the case to you." Then he threw a jade plaque to Xie Qingyun, "This is the jade seal of our house. See the seal."

If you see someone, in Baojing City, except for the government troops, you can mobilize them."

So refreshing?

etc!

Xie Qingyun suddenly noticed that Li Jiran was smiling quietly there, and he immediately realized that he had fallen into a trap. This stinky old man had long been planning to let him take over the case, and he was too treacherous to be a hands-off shopkeeper and still look reluctant.

Xie Yuandi thought angrily: Didn't the old man say that the people of Hezhou should solve the case in Hezhou themselves? Xie Qingyun is from Hezhou? But he quickly remembered that Xie Qingyun was born in Baojing City. Indeed,

He is from Hezhou.

He rolled his eyes and said: "Master Fu, this boy is very cunning, I will supervise him for you."

Li Jiran glanced at him, wondering how he didn't know what he was thinking about Xiao Jiujiu, but he didn't reveal it: "General Xie is willing to help, that would be great."

You rejected me thousands of miles away just now, why did you agree again? This is because you don’t believe in my ability to solve the case... Xie Yuandi felt like an accessory to the "buy one, get one free" offer, and became even more angry, and it was hard to treat Li Jiran.

He had a seizure and could only stare at Xie Qingyun.

Li Jiran lowered his face and said: "If Leng Ningxiang's body is fake, then Gao Liang's behavior last night is very suspicious. And that Taoist priest Wu, what clues do you have?"

Xie Yuandi rushed to say: "Master Fu Zun, if Gao Liang was trying to cover up the murderer's crime, then he must have been silenced."

"Not bad, little brother." Xie Qingyun nodded approvingly.

Xie Yuandi glanced at him disdainfully: "Humph, don't think that you are the only one who can solve the case."

ps: Actually, I don’t know what the use of recommendation votes is. I ask for it every day, just because I want to know whether you are reading it and whether this book is attractive enough for everyone. This will affect the rhythm of the book to a certain extent. I type very fast.

But my coding is getting slower and slower. I remember that when I first started writing, many years ago, I was still working, but I still had enough energy to write 20,000 words a day, and even had some unfinished ideas. But now I have to think about 2,000 words.

It’s been a long time. It’s no exaggeration to say that recently, in order to ensure that I have enough manuscripts, I have been coding almost every day except eating and sleeping. Sometimes, I start at nine in the morning and still haven’t finished writing 6,000 words by twelve in the evening.
