Chen Shao'ang has known the county captain for more than half a year, and he never believed that the county captain would commit suicide out of fear of crime. But he had no clues at all. He searched the county captain's home carefully several times.

The county captain is alone in Qinghe County and lives in the county government office with very few things. In the end, only a few ordinary letters were found in the county captain's room. This inspired Chen Shao'ang to find someone to ask about the letters sent by the county captain in recent months.

The yamen officer responsible for sending letters thought about it for a long time and only remembered one letter, which was addressed to a scribe named Mu in Qu County, Chuanzhou. Because of the special status of the other party, he remembered it.

A letter alone doesn't mean much, and no one knows what it says. However, Chen Shaoang still felt that this case was not simple, so he simply shared a child abduction case in Qinghe County in his letter to Xiao Qingshan.

Xiao Qingshan thought of what happened when Mr. Sun of the Li family was lost and Secretary Mu was suddenly knocked unconscious. In fact, when asked which of the county clerks could be related to the kidnapper, his first reaction was Clerk Li, and he never thought of Clerk Mu.

However, he also knew that Chen Shaoang would not mention this matter in his heart for no reason. So he asked Chen Xiaoliu to keep an eye on Secretary Mu secretly. We all know what happened next.

After listening to Xiao Qingshan's words, Xie Boyuan asked Xiao Qingshan for Chen Shao'ang's letter. He wanted to see what the letter said. Xiao Qingshan said that he had burned the letter because he was afraid that someone would see it secretly.

Xie Boyuan was speechless. Why was he so alert all of a sudden? Ming Jia looked at his father and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind: "Dad, does grandpa also burn important letters?"

Xiao Qingshan's expression instantly became even more sad, "Well, the important things your grandfather said can only be kept in mind, not on paper."

Mingjia felt that his grandfather must have had high hopes for his father, and his grandfather must have hoped that his father would become a high official. Only then will I teach my father some negotiation skills and attitude towards confidential matters.

Xie Boyuan also remembered that Xiao Qingshan often said that his father was very powerful, and his daughter Mingjia followed his father. Now, Xie Boyuan recalled some of the deeds of his father that Xiao Qingshan had said, and suddenly he understood Ming Jia's character.

After all, who can go to the battlefield to touch dead people and search for valuables during a war? He also brought his own son with him. The scholar's face and character were really worthless.

Xie Boyuan had never imagined that someone who read books about sages could do such a thing, but now he felt that Ming Jia, a kid, could do such a thing. I was the one who personally taught me how to read the books of sages, so I became even more upset in an instant.

Mingjia also told what he discovered about the disparity between Mu Shuli's consumption and income. Xiao Qingshan was at a loss. This Secretary Mu was indeed suspicious. But there is no evidence, and Xiaoliu's kung fu is already very good. It will be difficult to ensure preservation even if he sends people to investigate.

Xiao Qingshan really didn't want anyone to get hurt again, so he hesitated whether to continue the investigation. According to Xiao Liu, it is not something that a few government officials in his county can take care of.

Xiao Qingshan expressed his stance directly, and Mingjun naturally supported his father. Mingjia also expressed her support for her father's decision. She was afraid that her father would get hot-headed and continue to investigate the matter.

Xie Boyuan also expressed support. He needed to see Xiaoliu alone for a while. No matter what, this matter is beyond Xiao Qingshan's control.

The only thing left is to find a reason to fire Secretary Mu. Xiao Qingshan felt that this matter was settled, and the rest was Mr. Xie's business.

After thinking about the matter clearly, Xiao Qingshan stood up and said to Xie Boyuan: "Brother Yuan, how about we go meet the heroes who escorted Mr. Xie all the way to Sichuan Province?"

Xie Boyuan guessed that Xiao Qingshan would handle Xiao Liu's matter and immediately went to Lao Lu to find out about his cousin. After he got up in the morning, he hurriedly went to talk to Lao Lu and others.

Xiao Qingshan asked: Lao Lu and the others were the escorts of the escort agency, and they rescued the injured Mr. Xie during the escort run. Before he fell into coma, Mr.

The rest can only be done after the poison in Mr. Xie's body is detoxified and he wakes up. Xie Boyuan also told Xiao Qingshan that he sent Cheng Si to Liancheng to find a doctor who was good at detoxifying and came to Qu County.

After watching Xiao Qingshan go back to the backyard to rest, Xie Boyuan came to Xiaoliu's room again. He knew that Xiaoliu had not told the truth just now. Chen Xiaoliu was lying on the bed recovering from his injuries when he suddenly saw Commander Xie coming in.

Chen Xiaoliu was startled, and he winked at Commander Xie. He was planning to go to the military advisor to report the situation like Fourth Brother that night, but he didn't expect that Army Advisor Xie would come to ask him in person.

In panic, Chen Xiaoliu just wanted to express his speculation directly: "Military advisor, those people are trained soldiers." Xie Boyuan was already mentally prepared for this result.

After all, he knew very well the strength of Xiaoliu and the others, and those who could allow him to disguise themselves and come back from afar must not be ordinary people. Xie Boyuan said calmly: "Well, did you find anything else?"

Xiaoliu really found out and continued: "The village where Mu Shuli's family is located and the village next to them also have problems. I went into the village on the pretext of being thirsty and looking for water. They are very defensive."

Xie Boyuan thought for a while and asked Chen Xiaoliu: "Can you draw a map? It is not suitable for Xiao Qingshan to intervene in this matter. I will find someone to investigate."

Xiao Liu nodded: "Sure, I'm familiar with all the villages in the north of the county. I'm not familiar with the villages near Secretary Mu's house. The county has recruited workers several times, but no one from those villages has come to take the call."

"Then write down those villages and give me a copy of the road map!" Xie Boyuan went back to the study after explaining clearly. He now wants to go back and check which other villages in the county have never come to apply for jobs. County jobs.

In the evening, Xie Boyuan sat in his small study, looking at the map of Qu County and looking at the route map sent by Xiaoliu. Based on the map and Xiaoliu's description of the size of the village, he estimated the number of people and its size.

It probably didn't exist only during this dynasty. It should have been during wars or even during the previous dynasty when someone stationed troops here. But why were these soldiers useless in the end?

Xie Boyuan felt that he hadn't thought about things so hard in many years. The last time he was so troubled was before the emperor invaded the capital, he and Li Hansheng discussed siege tactics, and he had been hiding in the Duke's Mansion ever since.

Thinking of Li Hansheng, Xie Boyuan thought of Xiao Qingshan's journey. When they arrived in Jincheng, Mingjia discovered the poisonous salt case and rescued Chen Shaoang. When I arrived in Chuanzhou, I also discovered the secret of breeding Zhuangzi.

It's better now, maybe it was the illegal troops stationed by the previous dynasty. Xie Boyuan knew that he didn't have such a physique. He really didn't know who in the Xiao family had a special physique. It was all big things and no small things.
