"This person came unexpectedly, and he was very cautious and left nothing behind." Nangong Yuanyi added, "We may have been targeted a long time ago."
Shangguan Wei was surprised and said: "Who dares to plot against the King of Yiziyiyiyi behind his back? Doesn't he want to live?"
"Tiger also takes a nap. We have been in Peicheng for two years, and haven't we found that the magistrate of Tong County is a fake upright official?" Fan Yi also said quickly: "Husband, if we continue to investigate this matter, we will be derelict in our duties."
Shangguan Wei's face was full of shyness: "The enemy is too cunning, and I can't guard against it. After this incident, I will strictly investigate all the officials in Peicheng..."
Seeing that the two of them were still flirting, An Xiyue seemed to be fine, "I don't think this matter is directed at us. Even if we have offended many people, they can send assassins to kill us. They just want to kill us." die."
"However, we have been in Tong County for a few days, and we have only been plagued by lawsuits, not even particularly difficult ones. The more this happens, the lower our vigilance becomes. Invisibly, we may relax our vigilance and just treat it as normal. Investigate and deal with corruption cases..." An Xiyue analyzed.
"I understand what you mean. Often, the more ordinary things are, the less likely they are to make any waves. Once the embankment breaks, it will be like a flash flood and cannot be dealt with. But who will be hiding in the dark to control Magistrate Wu and Landlord Zhang? ? It is impossible for the other party to be so powerful and have allowed Magistrate Wu and Landlord Zhang to collude to make money for so many years."
Fan Yi also smelled something strange in it, and added: "If we investigate County Magistrate Wu and Landlord Zhang carefully, we will surely find clues."
"Magistrate Wu and Landlord Zhang were just accidents. The other party may just know that they secretly colluded. The embezzlement of money is also a fact. The evidence is conclusive and will not arouse our suspicion."
"The other party just used them to contain us. Now the only useful person is dead. Magistrate Wu and Landlord Zhang want to deal with it strictly, but they can't find any useful information. In the end, it's just a case of collusion between the county magistrate and profiteers." Corruption cases, or their sons have done many shady things secretly, will also be found out. In this way, our focus will be on the case, which is exactly what the other party wants." Nangong Yuanyi Things have been smoothed out quickly.
Suddenly, Nangong Yuanyi suddenly said again: "The clue is the woman named Xiaoni."
An Xiyue was also surprised: "We were originally going back to Kyoto, but it was because we met Xiaoni that we changed our route to Tong County, because the other party knows that if there are corrupt officials, Nan Wang will definitely take care of them."
"Shang Guan Wei, bring your officers and soldiers and follow me."
As expected, it was another murder.
So, Nangong Yuanyi and An Xiyue rushed towards the house of the woman they rescued.
But when I arrived, I found that the woman was dead and there was nothing unusual at the scene.
Another murder case immediately caused quite a stir, because the dead woman was indeed from Tong County, and all three members of the family were killed.
Nangong Yuanyi ordered people to quickly check the family again, and found nothing. They were from Tong County. The family lived by doing small business, and they also had relatives, who were ordinary people.
The key is that they checked these first, and there is indeed nothing suspicious.
Magistrate Wu's son also admitted that he had indeed defiled the girl. Because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed and his reputation would be ruined, he also gave the girl some money to send her away, so no one knew about these things.
No one expected that An Xiyue and Nangong Yuanyi would meet her and commit suicide by jumping into the river.
