When the government officials saw that the governor's order was an urgent one, they did not dare to delay at all, and they all rode off on horseback.
The government office lobby, which was noisy just now, immediately turned into a silent silence.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was disturbing him, Qi Yu quickly did two things.
The first thing was to study the set of screw locks that Huang Fei brought back from Wenxiang Pavilion carefully. He didn't give up until he figured out the general outline of it.
For the second item, he took out the pencil he carried with him and sketched a portrait of Jiang Yuan's facial features in a concise and clear way, and then put it aside for later use.
These two things took about half an hour. As soon as they were completed, the officials who had been summoned arrived one after another.
Then the tea time passed and everyone was present.
Although the visitors didn't know the reason, they also understood that the late-night summons must be urgent. In this case, who dared to add to the delay?
Especially the magistrate of Qiongnan County was actually the first one to come.
However, when the big guys discuss matters, he, Sesame Green, only listens and drinks, and is not qualified to express his opinion.
After looking around, Qi Yu directly ordered without explaining the reasons: "Tonight's summons is about important matters. Don't say anything else, just talk about business! Peng Wenchang listens to the order!"
"The official is here!"
"The governor orders you to immediately dispatch two teams to wait and see. One team is responsible for arresting Jiang Yuan, the owner of Wenxiang Pavilion, after he leaves the city; the other team is to immediately block and control Jiang Yuan after he leaves the city. Brothel.”
"yes!"
Although Peng Wenchang was a little confused, he still accepted the order seriously without thinking.
Qi Yu nodded to him, and then continued to order.
"Where is Liu Shicheng?"
"I'm here! What are your orders, sir?"
"Well...according to the legal provisions, after Jiang Yuan is arrested, he should be interrogated in your government office. At that time, I want you to stop asking questions and hold him down and beat him to death when he goes to court. , until he gives you a reason to stop, you can stop." Qi Yu gave a faint smile and ordered.
What arrangement is this?
Headless and incomprehensible.
Although Liu Shicheng was confused, he still followed the order firmly.
Mr. Qi is so enigmatic, how can someone like me guess it?
After that, Qi Yu made political arrangements for Shibosi, Zhaomo and others, requiring them to strengthen supervision and inspection in the market, curb the formation of various bad habits, etc.
In the end, only the Qiongnan County Magistrate was left without arrangements.
Indispensable for you.
Qi Yu suddenly pointed at him and said loudly: "Dong Yun, the magistrate of Qiongnan County, come forward and listen to the order."
When the Sesame Officer heard this, his body trembled, and then he quickly bowed and said: "My... my... officer... is here!"
"I said, it's not cold, why are you shivering?" Qi Yu glared at him, and then ordered: "I asked you to write a letter and stamp it with your The personal seal will be sent to Jiang Yuan, the shopkeeper of Wenxiang Pavilion, early tomorrow morning. In the letter, just write this sentence: 'Return to Yike, but ask for 10% of the bonus'. I Do you remember all this?"
Dong Yun's mind was racing, and after reciting it silently for more than a dozen times, he replied: "Hui, Sir, please remember..."
Cough, spit!
The officialdom in Qiongzhou really needs to be rectified. How come Jieba has become a parent official?
Where is the dignity?
…
After the discussion was over, Peng Wenchang immediately made relevant arrangements, and when everything was in place, he came to the second hall to see Qi Yu.
When he entered the door, he saw Master Qi giving instructions to two shrewd government officials.
Just listen to him:
"After dawn, you bring this set of screw locks to Miss Yin Tao and ask her if this object was lost on the railway track? Oh, by the way, you must be careful to speak softly when asking questions. , don’t scare her.”
"Yes! Sir!"
"As for you, after daybreak, take this painting and go to see my teacher, Mr. Wenzhu, and ask him if he knows the person in this painting. When you ask, you must be respectful and don't lose etiquette. ."
"yes……"
After a few more words, the two government officials bowed and retreated.
At this time, Peng Wenchang gave a dry cough and slowly walked forward.
Qi Yu gave up his seat and said with a smile: "I guessed that Master would definitely come to ask, and sure enough, come on, come on, sit down first."
"Thank you, sir!"
"..."
Next, Qi Yu succinctly recounted the process of his "secret visit", but the romantic plot was deliberately erased by him.
As far as this case is concerned, Mr. Qi mainly shared the following four pieces of information.
details as follows:
First, after Huang Fei left the meeting on the pretext of borrowing Gong, he luckily found a suspicious piece of evidence in the warehouse in Wenxiang Pavilion, which was the set of screw locks just now. If Yin Tao confirms that this thing is missing on the railway track, it will prove that Jiang Yuan is related to the previous railway track damage case.
Second, Jiang Yuan has implicitly admitted that he has some smuggling deals in his hands. So, will this be related to the previous Hai Dalong case?
Third, there are currently various signs that Jiang Yuan has a background as a celebrity in the capital. Perhaps we can use this clue to find out his true identity. In fact, I had a general idea in my mind, but I wasn't particularly sure about it. It was in view of this that I gave his portrait to my mentor Meng Lanshan for identification to correct this vague vision. When he was in the capital, he traveled among the upper classes. In the process of his medical practice, what kind of celebrities did he not see?
Fourth, he followed the clues that Mu Ziqing was stabbed. In other words, in this brothel, there are probably some minions who committed crimes. It was based on this consideration that he chose to be careful. Act in order to avoid hurting innocent people due to excessive manipulation and their eagerness to jump over the wall.
After hearing this, Peng Wenchang smiled suddenly and said with admiration: "Your Excellency, he went deep into the tiger's den to secretly investigate the culprit, regardless of his own safety. This kind of courage is really admirable!"
Tiger's den?
Well, it is indeed!
Look, the tigresses there are in groups. Isn’t this the so-called tiger den?
At this time, Peng Wenchang changed his voice and said: "Sir, you are the son of a rich man, how can you sit in the hall rashly? From now on, don't take risks alone like this again."
Hearing this, Qi Yu smiled bitterly and sighed, and said: "Well, the reason why I am so eager to solve the case is because I have no choice but to do it. There are two reasons for this. One is because of the ten-day promise to the people, and the other is because of the current situation. I really don’t dare to delay it!”
"Oh? Wen Chang can still understand the promise of ten days, but what does it mean when we say it is driven by the current situation?" Peng Wen Chang was a little puzzled and asked.
"For now, our fleet in Qiongzhou is about to launch a military strategy in Luzon. In the near future, they will be locked in a fierce battle to defend their homeland. If at that time of fighting against foreign aggression, a sudden explosion occurs in the backyard under our jurisdiction. Internal worries, wouldn't it be difficult to take care of the beginning and end? Therefore, before the war begins, I must eliminate these existing worries, otherwise, I will feel uneasy." Qi Yu explained from the overall situation.
oh, I get it.
Peng Wenchang bowed his hands humbly to show that he was taught.
