The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

Tang Zhongbai humbly helped him up and said sincerely: "Li Changli, you don't have to do this. I know you are under orders. You have worked diligently in the government for many years and spoke for the people. You are a good official."

Li Changli was ashamed, "You are too kind to praise me. I am speechless."

"Next, how about we investigate this case together?" Tang Zhongbai invited with a smile.

Li Changli bowed deeply and said, "It is my honor."

Tang Zhongbai brought his men to Zhang's house. Guan Tiexin had been notified and opened the gate to wait for them.

Although the wind was raging outside, it did not stop the neighbors from coming to watch the fun. After hearing that the entire Lin family had been wiped out, the neighbors sighed and suddenly felt refreshed. For them, the evil people in this family had been eliminated, which was a great thing.

Jiang Muxia first asked Tang Si a few questions in the yard.

"Tang Si, Brother Hu, when you sent the Zhang family to the east of the city yesterday, did you notice that they were in an abnormal mood?" Jiang Muxia asked.

Tang Si frowned and thought hard for a while before saying, "No, when Zhao Daniu said goodbye to us, he looked anxious to go home. Isn't that abnormal? As for the others, they were all in the car, so I didn't see their reactions."

Jiang Muxia's eyes moved slightly and she nodded, "Yes. Even if they come back, they will definitely come back secretly after dark. However, the city gates will be closed by then, unless they can fly."

She looked at Tang Zhongbai and said, "Ask the captain of the city gate some other day if there were any donkey carts entering or leaving the city last night."

Tang Si nodded and went to search for clues with others.

Jiang Muxia was wrapped in a thick cloak, standing in a sheltered place, quietly waiting for the results of the search.

The group turned Zhang's house upside down. Hu Daxin ran out of the west wing excitedly, holding something in his right hand, which was supported by a piece of rag.

The object in his hand had a handle that four fingers could fit into and hold, and in front of the handle were three sharp, bloody cylindrical weapons.

It was exactly the same as what Jiang Muxia said.

This caused the yamen runners to exclaim in amazement, and everyone praised her for her amazing judgment.

"Tang Juecao, what should we do now? The Zhang family..." said Li Changli.

The murder weapon was found in Zhang's family, and no one would believe that the Zhang family had no connection with this case.

"Find two people to bring official documents to Yangguan County to bring Zhang Chuncao back. Remember, don't mention the Lin family's extermination. Just say that someone has taken a fancy to her house and ask her to come back to the county to handle the change of documents."

Tang Si responded and went back to arrange manpower, and Tang Zhongbai brought everyone back to the Lin family.

Li Changli led his men to transport the fifteen bodies to the charity cemetery outside the western suburbs of the city. The case had been closed. The Lin family was wiped out, and there could not be only one murderer.

There are fifteen people in the Lin family, including ten people plus servants. The Lin family deserves the punishment, but it's a pity for the servants.

The initial assessment was that someone had put drugs in the Lin family's food. When the drugs took effect, the owner of the brass knuckles showed up and killed everyone easily.

"That's right. The most urgent thing is to find the person who drugged the family." Tang Zhongbai said, "Who do you think could have drugged the family so easily?"

Tang Si frowned, "Master, please don't embarrass me. You can let me use the knife, but forget about using my brain."

Hu Daxin grinned, "Me too."

"It was the cook." Tang Zhongbai said, "Only if the cook put drugs in the food can it go smoothly and not arouse suspicion."

Everyone was shocked, because the cook was the person they trusted the most. The Lin family never dreamed that they would die at the hands of the chef who prepared three meals a day for them.

"Don't worry about finding him. He will come to your door in less than two days." Tang Zhongbai sneered again.

"Why, sir?" Tang Si asked in disbelief, "Is he that stupid? Can he deliver himself to my door?"

"Because he was silenced, and what was delivered to our door was his body!" Jiang Muxia was so cold that he wrapped himself up in a ball, put his hands behind his back, and jumped to keep warm.

Her words shocked everyone in the room.

"Okay, everyone, divide into four teams and go to the neighbors to ask if there is anything unusual going on in the Lin family these past two days. I'll go back to the yamen first, as I still have a tough battle to fight."

Tang San put a seal on the Lin family, and everyone dispersed and went about their business.

Tang Zhongbai wrapped her in a cloak and said softly, "Go home first and bolt the door. I'll come find you later."

Jiang Muxia looked at him with a smile, "Okay."

"Fuzi, Miss Jiang is in your hands. If she is missing a hair, I will hold you responsible." Tang Zhongbai ordered, pinching her small hand hidden in her sleeve. "Be obedient. Without my consent, you are not allowed to step out of the restaurant."

"I can't even beat Sister Jiang, and you still want me to protect her? Tang Juecao, I'm still a child, you can't bully me like this." Fuzi looked unhappy and kicked the pebbles under his feet hard.

"Okay, I'll make you something delicious when we get back." Jiang Muxia's eyes were filled with smiles as she warned Tang Zhongbai, "Control your emotions and don't try to be tough with them. This is Suanzao County, and there are many forces behind the scenes. County Magistrate Feng has been operating here for many years, and the forces behind him are intertwined. No matter how high your status is, you can't prevent them from stabbing you in the back."

"Don't worry, I'm fine. You should be fine, don't distract me. Otherwise, I'll let Tang San go to the restaurant to protect you?"

"No need, ordinary people can't beat me. My brother is still here, so you should not make me worry."

The two reluctantly parted. She, who had experienced the bloody battle, knew that his current situation was a war without the smoke of gunpowder. If he was not careful, he would be drawn into this vortex.

She suddenly became afraid, fearing that her experience in her past life would happen to him.

What should I do if something happens to him?

But she couldn't do anything now, and she felt powerless.

After returning to the tavern, she immediately went to find Xu Da. As a woman, she couldn't help Tang Zhongbai, so she could only find someone to help him behind the scenes.

Xu Da has the Qingyi Sect under his command, so he is not short of manpower and can get things done faster than she could alone.

She pushed the door open and saw two people sitting inside, the other one was Wei Liulang and Wei Dong.

"I'm back. How's it going?"

Jiang Muxia sat on the couch under the window, worry in her eyes, "He revealed his identity and scared away the official who was trying to embarrass him. Now that he's in the government office, I wonder how Magistrate Feng will embarrass him?"

She lowered her voice unconsciously and looked at Wei Dong, "Can you do anything?"

"The reason why the Lin family is so rampant is because Lin Jianfei's first wife is my aunt. The old man has a good relationship with County Magistrate Feng and has some connections in the county."

Jiang Muxia was stunned. The Lin and Wei families actually had such a relationship.

"and you……."

"I'm just a bastard, what does it have to do with me? Besides, my aunt has been dead for more than 20 years. It's a pity for that cousin, he's still okay."

"Hmph, still okay?" Jiang Muxia sneered, "Can you beat old man Zhang to death?"

"Girl, I actually asked him about this. He was worried that Lin Yunhai would really hit the old man on the head with the brick, so he rushed over to grab the brick. Who knew that such an accident would happen by mistake? He regrets it too. Now he has lost his life just after he got out of prison. He has no chance to make up for it." Wei Dong sighed.

"You've said all the good and bad things. Anyway, the person is dead, so there's no point in saying anything." She thought of the brass knuckles. "You are well-informed people. Have you ever heard of anyone in Suanzao County using brass knuckles as a weapon?"

"Brazzaville? Never heard of it." Both of them shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.
