Yan Ruyu sneered silently.

She had already anticipated Mrs. Qi's reaction. She wanted to invite the county magistrate in, promise benefits, and then use the glory that the Qi family had received in the past, supplemented by some good deeds done over the years, to take down the county magistrate with a few tricks.

If it were normal, it might actually work.

But today, no.

The county magistrate didn't dare - he believed that there was a god three feet above his head and Zhong Kui above his head.

At this time, the county magistrate's mentality was about to collapse.

He remembered what Zhong Kui said to him: "After you go, someone will definitely ask you to go in and say, remember, that gate is like the gate of hell. Don't step in easily, otherwise, you will be eaten by evil spirits."

"You have to sternly refuse, and then find a secluded place to live, preferably a private courtyard. No one is allowed in except your own people, otherwise evil spirits will be attracted in."

The county magistrate kept these words in mind, so when Old Master Qi said to let him in, his expression changed instantly.

Zhong Kui got it right again!

Seeing that he was silent, Mr. Qi chuckled and said, "Sir, although my Qi family is not a famous family, we have contributed to the border. We still have a plaque given by the old prince at home... In recent years, the Qi family has also been kind to others. , to do my little bit for the neighbors, I just opened the porridge shed and medicine shed a few days ago..."

It was okay if he didn't say this. The more he said it, the paler the county magistrate's face became.

The county magistrate's mind was filled with Zhong Kui's words: "Don't chase yesterday's good deeds, and don't let other people's rhetoric go to your head."

Yan Ruyu looked at the county magistrate's pale face and whispered to Huo Changhe: "Why is he so timid? He won't be scared to death, will he?"

"I'm a little timid, but he's not a bad person. He hasn't done anything to harm the people. He's also a bit smart. It's fair to judge a petty thief or judge a neighborhood dispute."

"Last year, there was a case of adultery involving a daughter-in-law. Her husband's family insisted on immersing her in a pig cage. However, he insisted on investigating and investigated for several more days. He found out that the daughter-in-law was framed by her husband's family and was saved from death. He also dealt with all the family members. .”

Yan Ruyu was slightly surprised. Looking at the county magistrate again, she felt that it was okay.

"The only thing about him is that he is a bit old-fashioned in his thinking. He always wanted to have a son. After marrying a wife, he had nothing to do for three years. His wife felt sorry for him and gave her personal maid to a concubine, but the maid failed to give birth to a son...

Anyway, in more than ten years, he married five wives one after another, and Yin Ding found him in the room of his fifth concubine. "

Yan Ruyu was surprised: "How many daughters does he have?"

"No daughter."

Yan Ruyu: "...That means you don't even have children, but you still want to have a son."

Yan Ruyu wondered, if one woman can't give birth, and if five women can't give birth, could it be that the county magistrate himself has a problem?

Off topic.

She retracted her thoughts and said to Huo Changhe, "Has the place been arranged?"

"Don't worry, everything has been arranged. Song Ping and the others are waiting."

"it is good."

"Shut up, shut up!" The county magistrate shouted, interrupting Mr. Qi's words, "I'm here to investigate the case. Now that the body is here, what are you doing here?"

"How did these people die, why were they in the jar, and why were they in front of your house? You must explain this to me clearly."

Old Master Qi had a thought in his mind, he was really crazy.

The county magistrate usually doesn't come here, but he came today. When he went to the county seat in the past, he often gave him some gifts. He never wanted gold or silver, he only wanted some local products, and at most he wanted a few sets of fertility medicine, and it was considered a gift. Be polite to each other.

Why are you so unkind today?

"Sir, the common people are also wondering about this. This big urn suddenly appeared. This corpse... the common people really don't know."

"You don't know? It would be fine if they were ordinary people, but they are all deserters who fled the military camp. Not only are they deserters, they are also carrying lawsuits for their lives. They escaped after being beaten to death by Shangfeng."

"The deserter who was traced with a shadow died inexplicably in front of your house, and it's over with just a word of ignorance? No way!"

The county magistrate said angrily: "Come here, pull up these corpses and this urn. This county wants to find a quiet place to stay and try the case carefully. If we don't find out, we will never return to the city! We must give Let the people explain!"

The trio of silver ingots immediately applauded and shouted that you are mighty, that you are the best county magistrate in the world and the good parents of the people.

The county magistrate gradually lost himself in the shouts. He was extremely excited and vowed to solve the case.

Agent Li lowered his head and reminded in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, please calm down. There are too many weird things about this case, so it's hard to talk too much."

"I'm not afraid. What are you afraid of? We must investigate, otherwise what will the court want me to do? Why did I study so hard in the first place? Why do I want to get fame? Is it just for money?"

"No! No!"

"I am here for the people, for the court, and for the common people in the world!"

Agent Li: "..." Not to mention the whole world, the people in the town don't know who you are, and the court doesn't know who you are.

Mr. Qi's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he stepped forward and said: "Sir, it's better to discuss slowly, common people..."

"Discuss? Haha! What a joke! I want to investigate the case, and you are disgusted now. What are you discussing with me? What can I discuss with you?"

"Also, your family should not go out recently. Please wait for messages at any time!"

The county magistrate refused to say anything, turned around and walked away. When he got near the carriage, he whispered to Agent Li: "Help me up."

Agent Li: "..."

He climbed onto the carriage, put the portrait away, and muttered secretly: "Lord Zhong Kui, don't worry, I will definitely investigate this case."

After thinking for a while, he said, "You must bless me to have a son."

The carriage moved forward, looking for a temporary place. How could it be so easy to find?

They never came.

The county magistrate lifted up the curtains of the car and asked, "Do you have a goal?"

Agent Li sighed quickly: "No, I haven't lived here before. Let's take a look first. Later, we will call in the government officials stationed here and ask them."

"good idea."

Those dozens of people have been here all year round and are more familiar with the situation than they are.

Just as the car curtain was about to be lowered, there was a fight at the intersection ahead.

Their carriage could not move for a while.

The county magistrate heard someone say in the car: "Song! Don't bully me too much. This house belongs to me!"

"You fart, my name is clearly written on the house deed."

"Your house deed is fake, mine is the real one, I don't care, just vacate the house for me!"

"I won't let it go unless you have proof it's yours."

"It's a pity that we don't have a great master from Qingtian to judge for us, otherwise we will be able to distinguish this matter clearly."

When the county magistrate heard this, he thought? Am I not the Great Master Qingtian? Good parents to the people.

He immediately said to Captain Li: "Go and tell them that Mr. Qingtian is here."

Agent Li: "..."

Yan Ruyu watched from a distance behind, took the bait, and checked in smoothly.
