After walking around the room, Wen Xiaoyun and the other three finally walked into the courtyard where the back hall was located.
Yinnuo stood in front of the courtyard gate, looking at the closed door of the building in front of him, and stopped unconsciously.
He turned his head and ordered to the bearded man: "First, please invite Senior She to the backyard to rest."
The bearded man immediately clasped his hands and took his life.
Yinnuo turned to She Pi again and smiled slightly, "It's been a tiring journey, thank you to Old Senior She for your hard work. Now you can take a break next door and drink some water. I'll ask you to come over later when the adults ask questions."
She Pi looked around at the surroundings of the yamen of the state government, raised his hand and twirled his beard and replied with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Once you come, you'll be at ease. Guests can do as they please. I'll just do whatever you tell me."
Then, under the leadership of Big Beard, She Pi walked to another yard nearby.
Wen Xiaoyun and Yin Nuo nodded tacitly, and then the two of them stepped forward together.
When they reached the lower steps of the back hall door, they stopped together and waited for the Yamen servant standing at the door to report inside.
Wen Xiaoyun stood beside Yin Nuo obediently, and she suddenly realized that she and he had such a tacit understanding.
Without any unnecessary words or even unnecessary glances, the two of them could synchronize and overlap almost seamlessly just by relying on their mutual feelings.
Not long after, a young man's voice came from the back room, "Come in."
Wen Xiaoyun knew that the voice must be from other attendants in the back room. Because the voice of the prefect Wang was much thicker.
After receiving permission, Yinnuo's thug lifted up his robe and stepped up the steps.
Because he had some strange thoughts before, Wen Xiaoyun took one more look at Yinnuo before taking action this time.
Because of this extra glance, Wen Xiaoyun suddenly discovered that Yinnuo's big action of lifting his coat was very chic and elegant, so she couldn't help but imitate it to a small extent.
Fortunately, Yinnuo, who was in front, didn't notice anything unusual, and the two of them walked into the inner hall.
After walking to the center of the room, he bowed to the prefect Wang who was sitting behind a long table.
Yin Nuo clasped his hands and replied respectfully: "My subordinate Yin Dingyan went to Quancheng to investigate the case. He brought back three witnesses, several exhibits, and several corpses of the criminals related to the case of strangulation and head-changing of Bai Long. Now. All the witnesses have been brought? The key evidence has been brought back, but the remaining bodies and evidence at the scene still need to be sent out for verification and inspection."
When Magistrate Wang, who was looking down at the documents, heard this, he opened his eyes wide in surprise and stared at Wen Xiaoyun for a moment. "Have you found the real murderer?
Wen Xiaoyun nodded, and Magistrate Wang suddenly became excited. She told the whole story about what Magistrate Wang heard about them, and the summary and inference she made based on the evidence everywhere.
"On the surface, this case is about the shopkeeper of Pinjinku. Hao Wenzhang had a grudge against Qiu Renyi, the son of the governor, who caused a big disturbance in Pinjinku. So he used the mechanism of Ling Ou Xiang Winter Xia Jing to fake the appearance of the white dragon and killed Qiu Renyi in the street.
However, through further investigation and evidence collection, it can be proved based on the latest witness testimony and Yiyi's cordial interview with the white-haired She Pi. "
The prefect Wang was very happy after hearing this and slammed the table excitedly, "To be able to investigate such a major case in three days? It's really our turn to have talented people from Yanzhou."
He raised his head and looked at Yin Nuo and Wen Xiaoyun again, and said with approval: "Yin Shaotou? Wen Shuli? You will hand over all the evidence. The official documents for going to Quancheng to extract evidence will only be sent to Tongzhi ( The deputy official under the prefect) Mr. Shang wants to know how many manpower will be needed. We must thoroughly investigate all the details of this case!"
Wen Xiaoyun and Yin Nuo bowed again and said, "I accept your orders."
Then Yinnuo glanced sideways at Wen Xiaoyun, and Wen Xiaoyun also raised her head to look at him.
When their eyes met, Wen Xiaoyun nodded silently to Yin Nuo, and Yin Nuo responded with a firm look. Then he stepped back and followed the order of the prefect to find Mr. Shang Xiongshang, the governor of Yanzhou Prefecture.
Wen Xiaoyun stayed behind and handed over all the evidence and details of the case one by one to the clerk in front of the Wang Prefecture.
By the time all the details were explained, it was already evening.
Wen Xiaojun, who was standing in the center of the room, raised his head and glanced at the darkened paper window. Unconsciously, he raised his hand to cover his lips, coughed slightly, and suppressed his voice that was already dry and hoarse. He looked at the prefect Wang and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, All the evidence and details that my subordinates have traced are here."
The clerk who was writing seriously at his desk finally put down the last stroke. Standing next to him, the prefect Wang reached out to take the book that was still wet with ink. He held it in his hand and turned the pages carefully. "Good, very good. This way, I can give it to you." The governor gave me an answer."
He closed the page, glanced up at the officer next to him, and ordered: "Go quickly and bring back all the evidence from Secretary Wen, count them one by one, and put them in the warehouse. Then summon She Pi, the witness that Secretary Wen invited from Quanzhou." , I want to check the witness statements one by one."
The servants around him immediately took orders respectfully.
Magistrate Wang turned to look at Wen Xiaoyun again, "Scribe Wen, you have been working hard all the way. It is getting late today. I will go and state the case with the governor. If there is anything unclear, I will contact you at any time. I’ve sent you a message. I’ll take advantage of this little free time and go down to have a rest, wash my face, and come back with some clean clothes.”
Wen Xiaoyun suddenly thought of something, bowed his hands again, bowed his head and reported back: "To answer your lord, before that, I have one more thing I want to report."
Magistrate Wang raised his eyebrows and looked at Wen Xiaoyun in confusion, thinking that there was some evidence that she had missed, so he nodded and said, "Tell me quickly."
"During this investigation, my subordinates and Yin Baotou were greatly helped by a righteous man, and were able to successfully return within three days. Unexpectedly, the righteous man was killed. Such a loyal man, in the end, He should be commended by the Yamen. He should be commended for his loyalty and his relatives should be appeased. This is to show the official's majesty and love for the people."
Magistrate Wang twirled his beard and nodded thoughtfully, "You are talking about the boatman who died accidentally after being ambushed. His behavior should indeed be greatly commended. Don't worry, when this case is completed, I will Not only should we publish a list of commendations, but we should also show sympathy to his relatives."
Wen Xiaoyun took half a step back and bowed deeply towards Magistrate Wang, "Your Excellency, you have a clear warning."
Magistrate Wang waved his hand, "If there is nothing else to do, you can go down first. I will call you when needed."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the inner hall of the Yamen.
After crossing the threshold and closing the door behind him, as soon as he turned his head, he saw a hanging lantern.
Wen Xiaoyun unconsciously squinted her eyes and took a closer look, and then she saw the person holding the lantern clearly.
It was Yinnuo's good brother Big Beard.
When the bearded man saw Wen Xiaojun coming out, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Wen Xingfang, our boss Yin is going to dispatch manpower to Quancheng right now. Before he left, he specifically asked me to stay and help you."
Wen Xiaoyun felt warm in her heart.
She didn't expect that Yin Nuo would suddenly change her gender, and that she would be so considerate.
Because she really needs a guide at this time.
She wanted to see Tian Qilang and his wife before the governor summoned her.
