Yangcheng

When Tong Shaoxuan mentioned this, his thinking was right, and it also made Tang Jianwei a little bit smarter.

In the middle of the night, I went to the toilet with a bad stomach. On the way back, if I heard movement on the avenue at midnight, no matter how scared I was, I probably couldn’t suppress my curiosity, so I took a look through the wooden baffle.

What's more, Sister-in-law Liu is still a very courageous person. Her shop is opposite the back door of the county government. If there is a change in the middle of the night, it is very likely to be related to the county government. It must be a big event.

For ordinary people like them, it may be difficult to suppress the desire to take a look.

Tong Shaoxuan folded his hands in front of him, looking like a dignified lady, but with deep eyes and deep thoughts, the appearance of leading everyone into the reappearance of the case is very majestic:

"... Sixth sister-in-law took a good look, and happened to see something extraordinary. When she was greatly frightened, she instinctively hid, not wanting to be found, and in a panic, she kicked something at her feet, making a noise .”

Tong Shaoxuan's eyes fell on the pots of different sizes, stacked together for kneading dough and adjusting fillings.

Everyone's eyes followed her, and Ge Xunqing said "ah":

"Because of this sound, people outside discovered it!"

Tong Shaoxuan nodded: "There is a curfew in the middle of the night, there is no one on the avenue, and all the people in the street probably turned off the lights and went to bed. If there is any movement in the county government, it must be that She County magistrate took advantage of the dark room to deceive his heart!"

Tang Jianwei also told them all the strange things about her following She County Magistrate up the mountain last year, but she didn't mention her purpose, and Shi Ruzhuo and the others were very restrained and didn't ask.

But the image of Magistrate She having ulterior motives behind the scenes became even clearer when they were paired up like this.

Tong Shaoxuan walked around the room slowly, pondering: "Sister-in-law Six was discovered at that time, but it is impossible for people from the county government to break into the house during the curfew, so the movement is too big, and there will be traces. Originally, the purpose of doing things at night was to deceive people, but I didn't expect to get into trouble. What and how much Six Sister-in-law saw, this matter may make She County Magistrate sleepless at night. No matter how much Six Sister-in-law sees, She County Ling's cunning and shameless temperament must not be tolerated. At dawn the next day, he committed a felony at will, and urged the yamen servants to arrest people in a grand manner."

Tang Jianwei said: "What Anian said is very true. In order to cover up the crime, the dog official may randomly charge the sixth sister-in-law with a crime. If he bribes her to make a false accusation, the crime of poisoning may be..."

Tang Jianwei originally wanted to say, "The crime of poisoning is probably a catastrophe, and it will be difficult to get rid of it. I am afraid that the dog official came for the purpose of killing and silence."

If there were only her and Tong Shaoxuan here, she would definitely not think too much about words, and she would say everything.

But Shi Ruzhuo was still here, in order to take care of the child's mood, she didn't continue talking.

But this pause was enough to make one's heart skip a beat.

The room was quiet for a while, until Ge Xunqing said:

"I'll go back and ask my Aye to help find out what's wrong with the county government. I'll also ask him to find out about the situation of the sixth sister-in-law."

Tang Jianwei reminded her: "Magistrate She may not know that you and Ah Qi are classmates. If you, Ah Ye, go to inquire, I'm afraid there will be a risk of exposure."

Ge Xunqing said: "I, Aye, is the county magistrate. If you want to try a prisoner, all kinds of complaints must go through his hands. He must have seen the prisoner. Even if I and Ah Qi are classmates, there is nothing wrong with it."

After Ge Xunqing finished speaking, she found that she had used the word "prisoner", as if she had the wrong intention of tacitly acquiescing that the sixth sister-in-law was a prisoner.She was alert immediately, and said to Shi Ruzhuo:

"A Qi, I didn't mean that..."

Shi Ruzhuo felt quite strange when she heard her call out her small characters following Tang Jianwei.

Shi Ruzhuo shook his head: "I know, Yang Guang, you don't have to stick to small details. I'll leave it up to you about my mother, but you must do what you can. Don't drag you and your Aye because of this matter. If so, I will be ashamed for the rest of my life.”

"Don't worry, I, Aye, am a veteran in the officialdom. He knows what to do. I'll go back and find him."

"Can I go with you?"

"Yes, you can go home with me, and you will know any news as soon as possible."

Tong Shaoxuan and Bai Erniang were worried and wanted to follow.

Bai Erniang: "You let me go back like this, how can I sleep tonight?"

Tong Shaoxuan: "That's right, one more person and one more brain. If there are any variables, everyone will come up with ideas together, and there will definitely be more solutions."

Ge Xunqing said: "It's not impossible for you to go, but my relatives are visiting these few days and there is no place to live. If you go, you can only share a bed with me or sleep on the floor."

Bai Erniang said: "What's the matter, isn't it just the floor, I'd rather sleep on the floor in such a hot day, let's go!"

Tong Shaoxuan's heart was itching to death, but it was better for her to discuss this matter with Tang Jianwei.

Tong Shaoxuan came over and asked Tang Jianwei: "Can I go to Yangon tonight?"

"You said it all, and you came to ask me, can I not agree?"

Tong Shaoxuan smiled obediently.

"And you are concerned about your classmates. I have no objection. You can go. I won't go. I'm afraid we'll be lying together, I can't help it..."

Tong Shaoxuan immediately understood what the second half of the sentence she didn't say was what she said, but even mentioning it made Tong Shaoxuan's heart beat unceasingly. I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult.

"You go, send someone to report to me immediately if there is any news. I'll go home and tell Ye Niang so they won't worry. At the same time, I'll organize my thoughts and think about what to do next." Tang Jianwei's eyes sharpened , "If possible, I would take this opportunity to uproot this Magistrate She."

When Tang Jianwei said so, Tong Shaoxuan was very excited.

"Ah Shen, do you have another idea?"

"I have a preliminary idea for the time being. Don't tell Aqi and the others, lest they expect too much and be disappointed."

"Yeah! If you tell me not to say it, I will definitely not say it!"

Tang Jian smiled and squeezed her face: "My Anian is so good."

The case of Sister-in-law Six was a disaster, but it was also a rare breakthrough.

Tang Jianwei asked Uncle Chen to help her investigate the eagle-eyed scar man, and Uncle Chen wrote back to her, saying that he could not be found for the time being.

Uncle Chen is not to blame for this.It is not so easy to find someone in Boling, and Uncle Chen is just an ordinary person who has found a job in the royal racecourse, he has no power or influence, so if he wants to investigate, he can only do it himself and join some friends to help him pay attention. Difficult to search on a large scale.

Earlier, Tong Shaoxuan told Tang Jianwei about Wu Xianrong winning the top two, Tang Jianwei specially wrote a letter and sent a congratulatory gift to Azi.

The congratulatory gift had just been sent out, and A Zi's letter arrived. In the letter, A Zi shared about her becoming an official. At the same time, she said sorry that the visit to her in Su County might have to be postponed.After all, I have just entered an official position and am entangled in trivial chores, so it is difficult to spare time.

Tang Jianwei asked her to deal with the court well, and at the same time mentioned the eagle-eyed scarred man, hoping that she would help pay attention to him.

There was no news from Uncle Chen and Ah Zi, and she did not expect that Magistrate She would show his flaws.

Originally, when the sixth sister-in-law had an accident, Tang Jianwei instinctively thought that it was Hehualou who was playing tricks.But from Anian's analysis, it is indeed more likely to be related to the secrets inside the county government.

If it was Hehua Tower, why bother to target Liusao, if the poisoning case was directly placed in Tong's restaurant, wouldn't it be more able to achieve their goal?

The sixth sister-in-law is also difficult to deal with following the way of the rogue county magistrate.

Gotta act fast.

After Tang Jianwei returned home, he told Song Qiaotong Changting that Anian had gone to Yangon's house to play and stayed overnight at Yangon's house, so they should not worry.

After confessing and returning to the bedroom, Tang Jianwei did not sleep, lit the oil lamp and sat in front of Tong Shaoxuan's daily hard-working desk, took out a piece of paper that Tong Shaoxuan had used to practice calligraphy, turned it to the back, I wrote down all my thoughts.

If this county magistrate is to be uprooted, it will definitely not be possible to rely solely on these little people.

It's best not to show your face, so as not to be missed by the remaining party of She County Magistrate.

The best solution is to report it upwards and let his Shangfeng, the governor of Angzhou, investigate the matter.

However, the magistrate of She County has been in Su County for five years. With his insane attitude and the dissatisfaction of the people of Su County, someone might have already sued him to the governor of Angzhou.But She County Magistrate can still dominate Su County, I am afraid that this She County Magistrate is the assassin's henchman, colluding up and down, forming a clique for personal gain.

If the matter is directly brought to the governor's side, it will only scare the snake.

In this way, will the people have nowhere to redress their grievances?

No.

Tang Jianwei, who grew up in the capital, knew very well that the entire Daicang is divided into ten "Taos", each of which has roughly five to six states.In order to be able to supervise the style of local officials more and to monitor important wrong cases, the central government conducts inspections according to the "Tao" every year, and the person in charge of the inspections is the supervisory censor of the Procuratorate under the Yushitai.

Every year, the supervisory censor will go down to each county and investigate one by one.

These supervisory censors were not selected by Yushitai, but by another department, the Ministry of Officials, and some censors were even appointed directly by the emperor.In this way, the supervisory censor not only has supervisory functions, but also guarantees the independent exercise of impeachment and trial rights.

The procuratorate is Da Cang's demon-slaying sword, and it is the breather Gao Zu left for the people at the bottom.

No one can guarantee that Dacang will always prosper and officials will always be clean.

Maybe one day this splendid and free country will be annihilated in the dust of history, but the establishment of a sound inspection system can make this building collapse more slowly.

People living in this building can live a happier life in their lifetime.

Tang Jianwei counted the days, and it was already the first ten days of June, which was the time when the supervisory censors of the procuratorate went to the states and counties every year for inspection.

Under normal circumstances, those who sink to places like Suxian County should be Lixing, the supervisory censor, who is relatively younger and less experienced in the supervisory censor.

That's a good thing.

Li Xing, the supervisory censor, needs the support of political performance if he wants to go up. If he can eradicate a bully, or even solve a major case, for the young supervisory censor Lixing, it will be a sign of political achievement.

Only with actual achievements can they get rid of the word "Li Xing". Therefore, in the face of possible important cases and civil complaints, they must work harder than ordinary supervisory censors.

Tang Jianwei made up his mind, wrote the pleading overnight, and waited for the opportunity to submit it to Li Xing, the supervisory censor.

After not picking up a pen for a while, Tang Jianwei found that his handwriting was uglier than before, and there were signs of forgetting to pick up the pen and stuttering sentences when writing. This is not a good thing.

Although she has no plans to become an official, Ah Nian will definitely go to a higher place in the future. As Tong Shaoxuan's wife, if she only knows how to cook but has no knowledge, I'm afraid she will give her wife shame.

This book should be read...

Tang Jianwei made up his mind to keep up with Tong Shaoxuan's footsteps.

After staying up all night to finish writing the pleadings, it took some revisions, and I was finally able to read it.

Tang Jian was a little tired and was about to go to bed to rest.

Tong Shaoxuan is not by her side again tonight.

Tang Jianwei hugged Tong Shaoxuan's quilt tightly, and the emotion of longing kept surging in his heart.

She had never missed or been inseparable from someone so much.

It was right that she didn't go to Yangguang's house. Once she was with Tong Shaoxuan at this time, she wanted her kiss and her caress, and she couldn't restrain herself...

Ge Xunqing happened to pass by Bai Erniang's house on the way home with her classmates. Bai Erniang came out after talking to her family. The four of them arrived at Ge's mansion. Sitting, she went to her Aye.

Mr. Ge and his wife were ready to go to bed, but they were knocked up from the bed by their daughter. After listening to what her daughter said, they asked her to come in and close the door.

"I've heard about the sixth sister-in-law in the morning." Ge Gong said, "This matter involves too much, you children, don't talk too much, so as not to cause trouble."

When Ge Xunqing heard that Aye said this, she immediately became angry: "Aye! That's my best friend's mother, how can I keep my mouth shut?!"

Ge Gong sighed, he knew that Yang Guang was a kind child, and he was the most daring to his friends. What he said was indeed too out of the way, not something that a father should say, but what he said was indeed true, and he frowned for a while :

"This matter is not as simple as you think. Even I don't know the truth. It is enough to show that this is a secret that the county lord deliberately does not reveal. This county lord has a deep background and is related to the important affairs of the central government. If you want me to No matter, it is to involve dozens of people from all over the Ge family! Which is more important, Yang Guang, you can decide for yourself."

Her mother was a little anxious standing aside, for fear that the father and daughter would quarrel.

Ge Xunqing was dull for a while, then saluted her father and said:

"My father taught me since I was a child that although life is often unsatisfactory, it is the right way to reject the evil and respect the righteous. I really don't have any talent for reading, but my father taught me that I should be soft and not rude, hard and not spitting, and not insulting." Few, not afraid of the strong', this sentence has always been engraved in my heart, and I never dare to forget it. Now my father dare not speak out because of the chaos on the peak, it is soft to treat it, hard to spit it, bullying the weak and fearing the hard!"

Ge Gong was furious, and slapped the table: "How dare you reprimand the elder, will it be the opposite?!"

Ge Xunqing clenched her cheeks, and continued: "If my father doesn't want me to have the ability to disobey, why send me to the academy, why let me read the books of sages? Since I read the books of sages and know the righteous things in the world, my father shrinks back When I was young, I must be prepared to speak out."

Ge Gong held his breath in his heart, but was speechless by his daughter.

Ge Xunqing's mother came up to support Ge Xunqing, and whispered to her not to make Aye angry. Aye is not in good health, what should he do if he gets sick from anger.

Ge Xunqing had tears in her eyes and her face was flushed, but she still had no intention of retreating:

"Of course I said this not to anger my father, but for the conscience that still exists in my heart. I will study when my father asks me to study, and I will prepare for taking the exam if my father asks me. I don't like all this, but my father let me Doing it must be for my own good, and I don’t want to disappoint you. But if you become an official and eat the king’s salary, in the end, there are evils that do not get rid of the fear of power and do not make decisions for the people. Then why do you want to fight for this official? My father made up his mind to be an official in the first place. At that time, what kind of ambitions do you have in your heart? The child does not understand, so I ask my father to teach me."

Ge Xunqing's words and disappointed eyes made Ge Gong think of a long time ago when he was a scholar.

Now scattered all over Dacang, the students who don't know how they are going, have returned to his memory one by one.

"Hold the young Ai with the long sword, and shoot the sky wolf with the long arrow", these two sentences are the heroic words that they often use on their lips when they are young and heroic.

The sword protects the weak, and shoots the rape right.

This is a youthful ideal that he has not thought of for a long time, and it is also his original intention of becoming an official.

Ge Gong was soured by his daughter's words, and after a long silence, he said slowly:

"You asked your little classmate to wait for me in the front hall."

Ge Xunqing was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Okay! Thank you, father!"

In the front hall of Ge Mansion late at night, all the servants retreated, only Ge Gong, his wife, and Ge Xunqing and the others.

Ge Gong said that now the evidence of the crime is convincing, the sixth sister-in-law was imprisoned in death row, and she has pleaded guilty. According to the law of Da Cang, she can be executed after three days.

When Shi Ruzhuo heard the word "Wen Zhan", he suddenly felt like he was on the verge of falling.

She bit her lip and tried to calm herself down: "Three, three days... Excuse me, Uncle Ge, is my mother convicted now? Is there still a chance to reverse the case?"

In fact, Mr. Ge didn't see Mrs. Liu, he just heard about it.

But all cases in other counties would go through his hands, but this case was not informed to him at all, and he didn't see any pleadings, so he knew that this matter was a secret of the county lord, and he didn't want him to participate .

Mr. Ge has worked in the county government for many years. Before She County Magistrate came, he was the county magistrate here, not the group of people brought by She County Magistrate, so She County Magistrate never regarded him as "one of his own".

Ge Gong said: "The crime is convicted, after all, there is already a plea from her..."

Tong Shaoxuan doubted: "Could it be torture?"

Thinking of the beating scene, Bai Erniang's scalp became tense, afraid that Shi Ruzhuo would be afraid, so he held her hand.

Shi Ruzhuo's eyes were piercing, and he forced himself to listen to their conversation verbatim.

"It's hard for me to say about this." Ge Gongdao, "But the chance of overturning the case is not without, it's just very slim."

Shi Ruzhuo's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "What chance is there? What do we need to do!?"

Ge Gong looked into the dimly lit courtyard and said in a low voice: "The inspector censor from above has arrived in the county, and today the county lord is going to receive him. If the county lord didn't have time and was afraid of alarming the people above, I'm afraid Sister-in-law Liu's case will be tried faster and more dangerous."

Shi Ruzhuo said urgently: "Uncle means..."

Naturally, let them report to the supervisory censor!

Ge Gong didn't say any more, but he was referring to a clear path, the last hope.

Ge Gong said: "Everyone is asleep at this time, and you can't do things in a hurry. You should rest well and do things tomorrow when you are full of energy so that you will not make mistakes. The old man fell asleep and can't stand it."

Shi Ruzhuo bowed to thank him, and Ge Xunqing sent her Aye back to the bedroom.

When the bedroom door was about to close, Ge Xunqing bowed to her father:

"My boy offended me today, and my boy apologized to Aye...Thank you, Aye."

Ge Doll looked at his daughter carefully, and found that his daughter had grown up, and at some point already had a face close to that of an adult.

"I hope that you can become a better official than me in the future, the real parental official of the people."

After finishing speaking, Ge Gong closed the door.

It is said that it is necessary to recharge your energy to get things done, but how can Shi Ruzhuo sleep?

She wrote the statement overnight, and her eyes were dry, red and swollen after crying for a long time, and she almost couldn't open them after staying up all night.

Ge Xunqing and the others didn't sleep either, so they went to rest for a while when it made her eyes hurt. The other three discussed how to write together and took turns writing.

Shi Ruzhuo took the ice bag made of cold well water from Ge Xunqing and covered his uncomfortable eyes, the pain gradually subsided a little.

Seeing the earnest and busy faces of his friends, Shi Ruzhuo thought of Azhao's sister's words, and felt pain and warmth in his heart.

……

Early the next morning, before Tong Shaoxuan sent someone to send a message, Tang Jianwei inquired all the way to Ge Mansion, and met Tong Shaoxuan and the others.

Tong Shaoxuan told her what Ge Gong said, Tang Jianwei nodded, it was indeed a clear way, and he thought of going with her.

Tang Jianwei originally wanted to take out the statement he had written, but after reading what Shi Ruzhuo and the others wrote, the wonderful pen was so brilliant that it had the potential to sweep away thousands of troops, which really made Tang Jianwei feel ashamed and embarrassed to take it.

"Since the supervisory censor has come to Su County, it would be great. If we want to visit the supervisory censor, we must inquire about the time, and we must not run into the Magistrate of She County, or we will be in trouble."

"Don't worry, leave this to me." Ge Xunqing said, "I'll go find out!"

Erniang Bai: "You?"

"What's the matter, you don't like me? My friends are all over Su County! And I guess the supervisor should live better? Surely he won't live in the butler's dilapidated inn? It's not good to live in the magistrate's mansion blatantly." , I will definitely find a more comfortable inn in the county to stay in. Chang Er’s mother’s family runs an inn, and Lu San from the men’s department also runs an inn. There are only a few inns in the county, I’ll know if I ask!”

Shi Ruzhuo was astonished: "Yangguang, you are really amazing."

Ge Xunqing chuckled: "It's easy to talk about."

Tong Shaoxuan was so anxious that he wanted to kick her ass: "Quickly inquire! We're still chatting!"

Ge Xunqing went to the academy, skipped class after asking, and Mr. Kong almost chased her behind and beat her!

"I found out! It's at the Shuangfu Inn of Chang Er's mother's house! It's a female officer surnamed Wu, a very young inspector censor Li Xing! The female officer is young, isn't it comparable to us?"

"Great! Let's go now!"

"go!"

Tong Shaoxuan went out with his companions, saw Tang Jianwei behind him, looking a little dazed, so he came back and asked her:

"What's the matter, Ash?"

Tang Jianwei forced a smile and said, "It's okay, it's just that I didn't sleep last night and I was a little sleepy. Let's go, let's go together."

Tong Shaoxuan didn't think much, and went to Shuangfu Inn with Tang Jianwei.

Tang Jianwei didn't immediately tell Tong Shaoxuan that the young female officer surnamed Wu reminded her of Wu Xianyi.

Wu Xianyi became an official a few years ago as the number one scholar in Jinshi, and soon transferred to the procuratorate, where his official position was to supervise Li Xing, the censor.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Tang Jianwei: This damn double Shura field!

[Let me see who is asking 'Who is Wu Xianyi'. 】
