Kill with one move?
Xu Wanning drank the wine in the glass, "Then you have to look for it carefully."
"Young Madam doesn't know either?"
"How could I know!" Xu Wanning smiled and poured herself another glass. Seeing that she was about to put down the wine bottle, Pei Heng quickly handed over the empty glass.
Xu Wanning: "..." She was forced to fill it up for him helplessly.
"This Liu Ji, does he have a family?"
Since ancient times, Liu Ji would have died if the people did not report him and the officials did not investigate him. If his family members did not report to the officials, even if the Hou Mansion knew that he was beaten to death by the Hou Mansion, they would turn a blind eye and not find him. Body, it would be nice to find his family.
Xu Wanning looked at Pei Heng: "Admiral Pei has eyes and ears all over Vietnam. Can't you find out this person by yourself?"
Pei Heng: "..." Is this praising him or hurting him?
"It's possible to find out, but I just want to hear the young lady's opinion." This woman is not simple. She wanted Du's life, so she couldn't just let Liu Ji die without any other countermeasures.
"I have no objection. Murder must be punished with life. I also hope Governor Pei will bring the murderer to justice as soon as possible." Xu Wanning refused to say anything.
Pei Heng: "..."
He drank a glass of wine.
Forget it if you don’t say it.
Xu Wanning also had a drink.
Want to trick her?
There are no doors.
After having enough wine and food, Pei Heng finally left the Hou Mansion.
Xu Wanning went to see him off in person.
She wanted to see how Pei Heng got in. She locked the door when she walked out and nailed the window when she walked out.
Block the way in for him!
Can……
Xu Wanning saw with her own eyes that Pei Heng easily jumped onto the two-meter-high courtyard wall.
He was walking on a wall!
Should we build the wall higher?
But it doesn't seem to be of any use.
That's all, no matter how high the building is, it can't stop the gentleman on the beam.
Xu Wanning returned to her house.
The mess on the table has been cleared away, and there is still a pack of sugar-fried chestnuts on the clean table.
Xu Wanning walked over.
Opened and poured out two.
She drank a little too much and ate two chestnuts to relieve her hangover.
The chestnut lying in the palm of her hand was no longer warm. Xu Wanning did not throw it into her mouth immediately, but looked at the chestnut in her palm in a daze.
The chestnut has taken off its hard shell, leaving only the yellow-brown pulp inside.
Xu Wanning opened the paper bag, and it was all filled with peeled chestnut meat.
One by one, completely.
"Miss, what are you thinking about?" Qing Xing jumped in.
Xu Wanning asked her, "Does Yu Ji sell peeled chestnut meat?"
"No." Qing Xing replied, "He only sells fried chestnuts. The chestnuts are all in the shell. I haven't heard of them being peeled."
Xu Wanning squeezed the paper bag tightly and handed it to Qing Xing, "Here it is, take it and eat it."
Qingxing opened it and looked at it, her brows filled with joy, "Yu Ji, do you still have chestnuts like this? I'll buy them next time, so I don't have to peel them. Peeling them hurts my hands and can cause cuts easily."
Xu Wanning smiled.
Does Yu Ji really exist?
There shouldn't be.
The chestnut that Pei Heng knocked out Cui Yunfeng was still in the shell, so...
Xu Wanning was a little curious, what did this evil ghost want to do?
Peeling a bag of chestnut meat with your own hands to express her gratitude for leaving food?
Definitely.
Pei Heng left the Hou Mansion and quickly returned to Tianfu Tower.
This is his current residence.
Fusong was already waiting for him in the wing, "Master Governor, I'm a step too late. The man has already left."
"Where did you go?"
"My subordinate was incompetent and didn't ask."
Pei Heng waved his hand, "It's not your fault." He took two steps back and forth in the room and suddenly smiled, "If I'm to blame, it's because the person behind is too smart."
"That person behind? Could it be that someone was fueling Liu Hen's departure? Then who is this person? He was able to take action before Jin Linwei's people. This person's methods are extraordinary." Fusong was shocked.
Pei Heng was not shocked at all. Instead, he admired it: "Isn't this very interesting?"
There is someone who is more powerful than you think.
"Lord Governor, what's wrong with your hand? Why is it injured?" Fusong saw a bloody mark on Pei Heng's finger.
Pei Heng looked at the blood stain on the index finger of his right hand, "Nothing, just peeling chestnuts, and accidentally scratched my hand by the chestnut shell."
Fusong was shocked and immediately knelt down to plead guilty: "It's my subordinate who neglected his duty. He let the governor do such a small thing personally. This subordinate deserves to die."
Pei Heng, with his rich body, has never done such a rough job as peeling chestnuts.
"Nothing." Pei Heng smiled.
There is an inexplicable joy in doing such a small thing.
It's even happier than eating it in my mouth.
Soon, people from the county government came to report that Liu Hen, Liu Ji's brother, went to the county government to play drums and complain.
Pei Heng looked at the scratches on his fingers, and the corners of his mouth were so curved that even Fu Song felt incredible.
How long has it been since the Governor smiled like this?
But Pei Heng had one thing on his mind.
It really has nothing to do with you if Liu Hen went to beat the drum to complain.
He, Pei Heng, is not a fool. He only believes in you.
Yancheng County Government.
Wang Xingmin sent people to search for Liu Ji's body everywhere, but found nothing.
If the body cannot be found and no one files a complaint, then this is one of those cases where the people do not complain to the officials and will not be held accountable. Knowing this will not help the matter!
After finally getting a clue, should we just watch it become a useless clue?
Wang Xingmin was a little unwilling!
But what if you don't want to give in?
"Why……"
"Dong dong dong... dong dong dong..."
Wang Xingmin jumped up in fright.
Outside, a government official shouted: "Sir, someone is beating drums to complain!"
It was like one wave after another. Wang Xingmin quickly put on his black gauze hat and "raised the hall."
It's really annoying, can't we just let him handle a case in peace?
But it doesn’t seem to work!
"Who is in the hall?"
"Sir, Liu Hen, a common man, is the brother of Liu Ji, the doctor of the Hou Mansion. I came to Yancheng to reunite with my brother, but the Hou Mansion turned me away and said that there is no such person in the Hou Mansion. But my brother Liu Ji Ji, he is really the doctor of the Hou Mansion! If you don’t believe me, there is a letter from my brother Liu Ji as proof!"
Wang Xingmin only needs to sing and dance.
It’s really hard to find it even if you wear out your slippers, and it takes no effort at all!
"Someone in the mansion has confessed that your brother Liu Ji has been beaten to death."
"What?" Liu Hen was mentally prepared, but he still burst into tears.
Sure enough, the person who came to deliver the letter to him did not lie to him.
His brother is really gone!
He was really beaten to death by Madam Houfu.
The Liu family has been practicing medicine for generations, and all the men in the family must learn to practice medicine. They can not only help the world, treat illnesses and save people, but also support the family. With the accumulation of generations, the Liu family's reputation has become more and more famous, and their wealth has also increased.
In Liu Ji's generation, there were two men in the Liu family.
One is Liu Ji, and the other is Liu Ji's brother, Liu Hen.
The ancestral precept left by our ancestors was that all males in the family should practice medicine. In the past, there were only one child in the family, so they had no choice but to practice medicine. However, Liu Hen did not like practicing medicine and always resisted it. Until Liu Ji was born, Liu Hen was no longer willing to learn.
However, the ancestral motto of the Liu family is that all men should practice medicine, so the elders in the family asked Liu Hen to learn from it. Liu Hen complained that his medical skills were mediocre, but Liu Ji had a profound knowledge of the real medicine and became a famous doctor at a young age. The family relaxed some control over Liu Hen and asked him to learn how to prescribe medicine and help Liu Hen.
Until one day, after Liu Ji checked the pulse of a child, he informed Liu Hen of the child's illness and asked Liu Hen to prescribe medicine, while he hurriedly followed another patient's family member.
That time, he didn't read the prescription Liu Hen prescribed, and that was the time the Liu family fell into an eternal hell.
