Except for Pei Heng, everyone else stared in the direction of the sound with their mouths open.
The sound came from the small Buddhist hall.
Pei Heng pulled off the sleeve of Wang Xingmin, who was already stunned.
Only then did Wang Xingmin react: "Master Marquis, Madam, what is this voice?"
"Oh, the servant must have made a fuss and bumped into Mr. Wang." Cui Lu explained, looking at Du on the side.
Du Shi understood.
To be honest, she was almost frightened by the roar just now.
Whoever screams like that in broad daylight would scare someone to death.
To know who it was, she had to peel off his skin.
Only Nanny Xia, who was next to Du, also had a frightened expression on her face.
If she heard correctly, the heart-rending roar came from Granny Sun, who was cleaning the Buddhist hall.
"Master Wang, I'll excuse you now." Du said politely and was about to leave.
Wang Xingmin held up his hands: "Madam, I..."
Before he finished saying that word, Pei Heng on the side tugged on his sleeve again and winked at him.
this means……
Wang Xingmin's face almost collapsed.
Does Governor Jin Linwei also like to inquire into other people's private affairs?
Pei Heng: "..." Yes, he likes it very much.
Wang Xingmin: "...Master Hou, this roar is really weird. Why don't you go and have a look? If there is anything I can do to help, I will do my part."
Cui Lu's face fell, "...Master Wang, this is a private matter of my family."
Wang Xingmin said shamelessly: "Master Hou, that roar just now was really weird. I want to go investigate."
"What if I don't agree?" Cui Lu's face not only fell, but also darkened.
The next sentence is about seeing off guests.
Wang Xingmin licked his lips, then bent down and handed over his hands: "Article 44 of the Dai Viet Law stipulates that if the local official thinks that something is strange and needs to be investigated, no one may use any excuse to obstruct the handling of the case. Violators may be punished with a cane first. Forty-four."
Forty-four, die, die.
He even pulled out two strands of Cui Luqi's beard.
Damn it, Wang Xingmin had better not come asking him to say good things at the end of the year.
Anyway, he will definitely talk to the people in the Ministry of bureaucracy and push Wang Xingmin, who seems to be submissive but actually full of evil, into a corner where nothing matters.
Wang Xingmin wailed in his heart.
It's over, it's over, he offended Yancheng's second-in-command in just two sentences.
If there is a year-end performance exam...
Wang Xingmin didn't even have to think about it, he knew that Cui Lu would definitely wear small shoes for him.
That’s all, you can’t have your cake and eat it too.
If Cui Lu is the fish, Governor Pei is the bear's paw.
In Wang Xingmin's mind, Bear's Paw is better and more expensive.
"Master Marquis, please lead the way." Wang Xingmin reminded again.
Cui Lu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Cui Lu led the way, Wang Xingmin followed, and Pei Heng held a bamboo leaf in his hand and dangled it leisurely.
There was a faint smile on his face, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
Mrs. Du arrived at Yannianyuan first.
At the entrance of the small Buddhist hall, a group of servants gathered around, pointing inside and whispering.
"It's Grandma Sun's voice. Oh my God, what happened to her? Why did she scream so miserably!"
"Did you see a ghost?"
"Nonsense, that's a Buddhist hall, a place to worship Buddha. Do ghosts dare to go there?"
"If you're not seeing a ghost, what are you seeing?"
"God knows. But it's really scary. It's broad daylight, hiss... don't you feel a cold wind blowing? It's so cold."
Everyone stretched their necks to look inside, curious to death, but no one dared to take a step inside.
Mrs. Du had issued an order that except for a few people she allowed, no one else was allowed to step into the small Buddhist hall, otherwise they would be dealt with according to family law.
The things in the small Buddhist hall are really too valuable and fragile. What if anyone can get in and break her things?
Aunt Xia hurriedly chased people away: "What are you doing here? Are you done?"
When everyone saw that the lady was back, they immediately dispersed.
Sharp roars came from the depths of the bamboo forest from time to time, and this time Du Shi heard it clearly, it was Granny Sun's voice.
Du Shi walked quickly inside.
The usually beautiful bamboo forest scenery could not attract Du Shi now.
She walked quickly inside.
Soon, we arrived at the door of the small Buddhist hall.
Then I saw Granny Sun crawling outside while shouting, using her hands and feet like a bereaved dog.
"Madam, madam, help, help!" Grandma Sun finally crawled out of the small Buddhist hall. She didn't even have the strength to stand up, so she crawled towards Du's side again, muttering as she climbed: "There are hands, there are hands. "
Mrs. Du didn't understand what she was saying. When she saw her crawling over, she was full of snot and tears. She was so disgusting that she kicked her over in anger: "You cheap slave, what are you talking about!"
"Madam, there are hands, there are hands." Granny Sun shouted.
Du Shi still didn't hear clearly. She was about to walk into the small Buddhist hall to see what was going on inside, but was stopped by Wang Xingmin.
"Madam, the slave just said that she has hands. What hands? Whose hands?" Wang Xingmin's face was livid, and he vaguely felt that there was a big problem with the hands that Granny Sun was talking about.
"I didn't go in to take a look, how would I know." Mrs. Du was upset, so naturally she didn't take Wang Xingmin seriously: "I'll go in and take a look."
"I'm sorry, ma'am, if the hands inside are human hands, then this is a crime scene and no one else can enter."
"this is my house."
"It's also the scene of a crime." Wang Xingmin said unceremoniously, "Can someone please go to the door and call some of my government officials to come in."
The chief governor was so good at predicting things. He even expected that there would be a case in the Hou's Mansion. When we came together, he asked him to bring the Yamen servant with him. But it was too conspicuous to bring him in, so he stayed at the gate of the Hou's Mansion.
Cui Lu: "..." Are you prepared?
"Master Wang, this is my home. I decide my family's affairs, and you are not allowed to interfere." Cui Lu was also worried about the hand in the small Buddhist hall. If one of them fails to handle it well, the entire Hou Mansion will be affected!
Wang Xingmin looked at his nose and his heart, "Article 44 of Dai Viet Law stipulates that if the local official thinks that something is strange and needs to be investigated, no one may use any excuse to obstruct the handling of the case. Violators may be punished with forty canes. Four."
Cui Lu: "...Wang Xingmin, don't bully others too much! Come here, kick them out!"
The guard came in.
But it wasn't someone who walked in, but someone knocked in.
"grown ups."
A group of yamen servants wearing black yamen uniforms embroidered with red thread came in proudly. The leader was a handsome man in blue clothes and a sword. After entering, he looked towards Pei Heng.
It’s not who Fusong is.
Pei Heng nodded and opened the folding fan in his hand again.
"Wang Xingmin, are you going to rebel?" Cui Lu's chest heaved with anger.
Wang Xingmin frowned: "Rebellion? Mr. Marquis, what you said is a bit treasonous. You are the Marquis, not the emperor. The word "rebellion" is inappropriate, right?"
Cui Lu's breath was suffocated: "..." He was stunned and made a big mistake.
Wang Xingmin laughed: "I guess the Lord Hou must have said nonsense, so I pretended not to have heard anything. The most urgent task is to deal with the hand in the Buddhist hall first. Come with some guards and go in and take a look."
"yes."
Fusong took two people in to take a look. After a while, Fusong came out.
"Sir, a jade Buddha was broken into pieces, and a human hand was found inside the jade Buddha."
Du Shi screamed: "How is that possible!"
