It was very strange to encounter an attack by people from Changhua County in Ganfen County.
Moreover, these people were sent by the magistrate of Changhua County, which is even more puzzling.
I have no grudges against him, so what is his motive for doing this?
I don’t know!
In any case, this case can be classified as deliberate murder.
"Hmph! These people are so audacious, they actually dare to murder an official of the imperial court!" Yin Jun was so angry that his beauty stood upright with an angry look on his face, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Looking at it now, Your Majesty asked me to come to Qiongzhou to rectify the official system and do some work. You are so right. If this evil trend is not eliminated, how can we rectify the situation? Humph, I swear I will not return to Beijing until we take down this magistrate of Changhua County!"
What you say is so domineering,
He was completely different from the shivering state just now.
However, Yin Jun didn't know that Qi Dalang was a hundred times more vengeful than him. At this moment, he had already begun to hatch revenge methods in his heart.
Well, think about the next step first, think about what to do?
This is a problem we are facing right now.
Should he continue to go to Thanksgiving County to investigate the county's fake case of water leakage, or should he turn around and go to Changhua County to take revenge?
Qi Yu thought carefully for a while and said decisively: "Let's go to Thanksgiving County first to understand the actual situation, and then consider going to Changhua County. If the purpose is changed, it is very likely that we will be influenced by the forces. If you follow the nose, in the end, you won’t find any entry point.”
This is common sense in handling cases. You must first find the clue and then follow it. If you choose to start from the middle, you will probably get twice the result with half the effort.
In this regard, Yin Jun seemed a little worried: "If we continue to move forward, will it be a little too reckless? What if, I mean what if, we encounter some big troubles, we just can't be safe! "
"What are you afraid of? They are just young people. If I let them have fun, there is no way they can bring down Qiongzhou!"
At this point, Qi Yu immediately stopped talking. In fact, what he wanted to say next was: As long as the government's armed forces didn't rebel, there wouldn't be any big trouble!
This sentence is the real core!
Assuming that Qi Yu had not strictly controlled firearms before and allowed them to spread, then he might be facing an uncontrollable and complicated situation now.
Back to business.
Now that we have decided that the next step is to go to Thanksgiving County, we need to prepare to leave, because it is getting dark soon.
Naturally, the aftermath work is indispensable, but with the professional Leng Qing here, all troubles will be reduced to water.
When the first ray of morning light from the east fell on the earth, all traces here were wiped out.
It seemed like nothing had happened.
The only thing that made Qi Yu slightly tangled was that Leng Qing actually sent the breathing prisoner to death privately without permission, which was quite unbearable.
The reason she gave was: It’s tiring to carry such a person
Going on the road is troublesome.
So, the man died.
Forget it, this person really deserves to die anyway, so he can be regarded as having been saved in advance.
After daybreak, Qi Yu and his party formally bid farewell to Lai Weng.
After vaguely mentioning the gunfight last night, Mr. Qi specially gave the second son of the Lai family a page of handwriting as a reward for the hospitality.
There is something in the book that says: If you enroll in a government school, you will enjoy preferential treatment.
As if they had received a treasure, Lai Weng's family thanked him again and again. They even sent out invitations and hosted a banquet for the guests to show how lucky they were.
Just talking about Qi Yu and his party, they continued southward along the official road, and arrived at the county seat of Ganfen County that afternoon.
This ancient city is mottled and full of vicissitudes, as if it has existed for endless years. It's just that its ecology is primitive and its people's livelihood is poor, which is very different from the rapidly developing Fucheng.
This made Qi Yu deeply aware that the development of Qiongzhou was uneven, with huge differences between the north and the south.
However, a village elder told him that the current Ganfen County can be regarded as a rare "prosperity" in recent decades, and the people are very satisfied with this.
Hearing these words, he was both sad and moved, but behind this move, he felt a faint sense of encouragement.
The road is long and long, and there is still a lot of work to be done. As the leader of the production team, I have to continue to work hard!
Not long after, Qi Yu and his party arrived at the county government office in Ganfen County.
What?
Master Qi, the prefect, descended from the sky?
Could it be a surprise inspection?
This move caught the county magistrate named Xie Jiong off guard. In desperation, he quickly changed into his official uniform and tidied up his appearance, and then personally led a group of subordinates out of the main entrance to welcome his boss.
So, Qi Yu walked into the county government office surrounded by everyone.
Xie Jiongzhan respectfully gave up his seat and served tea.
He was very puzzled as to why Mr. Qi came suddenly without saying hello in advance. Looking at his face, he seemed very unhappy. Could it be that bad luck was about to happen?
Turns out, his guess was right.
Qi Yu was eager to handle the case and didn't want to be too long-winded. He went straight to the topic and inquired about the entire process of the county examination.
Naturally, Xie Jiong answered every question and answered in detail, without any ambiguity.
The result is: business as usual.
According to him, during the county examination, there were no accidents in the area under his jurisdiction, and business and public order were safe.
What a strange thing, nothing happened!
Are Xie Jiong’s words credible?
Pretty much. During the questioning process, Qi Yu paid special attention to his demeanor and found that he spoke slowly and sincerely, giving the impression of being honest.
Just imagine, a person with his temperament dares to tease Shangguan?
Not likely!
However, regardless of
If it's not him, he has to take the blame for the time being, otherwise, there will be no way to continue the subsequent scenes.
Therefore, Qi Yu suddenly changed his face and asked sternly: "Bold Xie Jiong, do you know your guilt?"
this……
In shock, Magistrate Xie hurriedly knelt down and said, "I don't know what crime I have committed. Please make it clear to Sir Qi."
"I don't know? Well, I'll make it clear to you..."
"Well……"
Qi Yu put down his tea cup and explained the case of 'fire in the examination room' succinctly and clearly, and made it clear that the purpose of coming here was to investigate and deal with it. Looking at it now, I have been fooled. So, will the person who fooled others pay the price?
Uh...who is this person?
Master Qi smiled and pointed at Master Xie who was kneeling on the ground, seemingly saying: Who else can there be?
ah!
"It's unjust, Mr. Qi. Even if I had the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard, I would not dare to fabricate a false case to tease you!"
"Isn't it you?" Qi Yu glanced sideways at him and sneered.
At this juncture, of course, we have to defend ourselves.
Xie Jiong was indeed an experienced trial judge. He pointed out the loopholes in the case with just a few words.
There are two points that need to be made clear.
First point, if Thanksgiving County really encountered such a big case, how could it not write an official document but only make a verbal report? This is obviously illogical. I have been an official for many years, how could I do such an unreasonable thing?
Therefore, Mr. Xie believes that someone is deliberately setting up trouble.
The person behind the scenes, because he did not have a public seal in his hand, avoided official documents and reciprocated verbally. This phenomenon just illustrates the problem.
The second point is about witness. In this regard, Mr. Xie swears to heaven that he and the ministers of each house have never sent anyone to report to the city. This statement is absolutely true. If you don’t believe it, you can summon everyone from the county government together. to conduct cross-examination.
In short, Xie Jiong gave strong evidence that he was indeed wronged, and that someone was deliberately setting the blame on him.
Putting the blame on you?
Haha, of course I can see it, not only you, I am also deeply involved.
Although Qi Yu didn't say it, he knew very well in his heart that he was very likely to be involved in a certain "game". Moreover, this game covered a wide area and involved many things, as evidenced by the previous assassination incident.
