I am the county magistrate in Daming

The role that Mu Qingtian entrusted to Duoduo is a little mute, who can neither write nor speak, and is the favorite servant in the house.Moreover, the "little dumb" had a rough life experience. He was three years old and had no mother and four years old and no father. He went south with his uncle's family to seek a living, but encountered bandits halfway, and all but him died.

Zhu Jingshou Fu forehead said: "Isn't it too miserable."

Mu Qingtian wiped the loess mixed with ash from a plate on the side, spread it on Duoduo's face, and said, "It's not miserable, anyway, the 'little mute' can't speak, he just needs to pretend to be pitiful."

Looking at Duoduo who was made to look like a mud monkey, and the handsome man who was starving and skinny in the county government, Zhu Jingshou felt that Mu Qingtian must not be allowed to take care of the children in the future.

Duoduo has no objection, anyway, he came here like this before.

"Okay, give me money when you go back."

Mu Qingtian patted his chest to reassure, and said, "Don't talk about silver, gold is fine! Chinese New Year is coming soon, I will give you a big red envelope!"

Duoduo lowered his head and counted with his fingers. Now there are at least four more months before the Chinese New Year.

"No." He said, "Today is today, and Chinese New Year is Chinese New Year."

... How can anyone be more budget-conscious than me?

Zhu Jingshou held Mu Qingtian's shoulder with a suppressed smile, telling him to be calm, then looked at Duoduo, and said calmly, "I'll take you to Shuntian Mansion during the Chinese New Year."

Duoduo's eyes lit up at once.

"make a deal!"

Mu Qingtian was stunned for a moment before realizing that Zhu Jingshou is the prince, and this is not a year of war disaster, so he must go back to the palace for the New Year.Thinking about it, he felt a little depressed.

I am just the county magistrate of Chongming County, an extremely small official position.The courtiers of Shuntian Mansion may not be able to go to the banquet without the invitation of the emperor, let alone him as a Zhima official.

Mu Qingtian shook his head.It's not that he doesn't want to part with Zhu Jingshou, but he's afraid that Zhu Jingshou will be lonely alone.

Seeing that Mu Qingtian was in a bad mood, Zhu Jingshou secretly gave Duoduo a few pieces of silver.

"Godfather, then I'll go." Receiving the signal, Duoduo jumped up from the stool and ran out.

"Hey! I haven't finished yet!" Mu Qingtian's thoughts were pulled back, and he stretched out his hand and said loudly to Duoduo's back.

Zhu Jingshou came over, put one hand gently on Mu Qingtian's arm, pulled him down, and said, "Duo Duo is smart, he knows what to do."

"Okay." Mu Qingtian suppressed the soreness in his heart, stretched his waist pretending to be relaxed, and said, "You can't be idle these few days, go shopping in the street more, and don't make too many accidents."

"Little San is protecting in the dark." Zhu Jingshou said.

"Ah..." Mu Qingtian paused, and then said: "I don't know how everyone in Chongming County is doing, and I have to go back to collect some things before the twelfth lunar month."

Zhu Jingshou's eyes darkened, and he said, "With Xiaoqi here, he will take care of the county government."

Seeing that Zhu Jingshou didn't refute his words, Mu Qingtian's nose felt sour.He didn't want Zhu Jingshou to see his frail appearance, so he turned his head away and sniffled, racking his brains to say something.

"And handsome, it's time to take him for a run in the mountains. It's not too cold in Chongming County in the twelfth lunar month. I haven't taken care of it. I've given it to Cuizhu and Shuhui to take care of it. It's really negligent of my duty. "

"It should be taken out for a run." Zhu Jingshou nodded, "But Cuizhu and Shuhui are also very good to Yingjun, so it's better to continue to leave it to them."

Mu Qingtian was furious, turned around and beat Zhu Jingshou's chest hard.

"Why do you always argue with me!"

This is too unreasonable.Mu Qingtian thought about it, and felt that now he should go alone for a while, and turned around to leave.

Zhu Jingshou came up from behind and hugged him, his movements were very gentle, but with an undeniable strength.

"After asking a lot of questions about the county government, even Yingjun asked, why don't you ask me, not you?" He rubbed close to Mu Qingtian's ear.

"Me? I have nothing to ask." Mu Qingtian forced a smile, "Didn't I say in Zimingli, 'every year has today, and every year has today'."

"What about me?" Zhu Jingshou smiled and pulled Mu Qingtian over, and kissed him on the lips.

"Why didn't Qingqing ask me?"

When Mu Qingtian was sad, Zhu Jingshou approached without knowing what to do, and immediately ignited the firecracker in his heart.

"How could you celebrate the new year with us, just come back next year." After saying it, I didn't feel relaxed at all.

Zhu Jingshou smiled but said nothing, looking down at Mu Qingtian.

Mu Qingtian didn't know what he was expecting, was he expecting Zhu Jingshou's answer?If he said "yes", what should I do?

"Don't worry." He was the first to be defeated, "Although you are not around, you are indispensable for the tableware."

"Qingqing helped me make a decision so quickly?"

What decision, isn't this a certainty?

The bad water in Zhu Jingshou's stomach started to leak out again.Looking at Mu Qingtian's appearance, one could tell why he was troubled by something.Just looking at it makes me want people to continue to bully me.

"Even if you can't celebrate the New Year in Chongming County, everyone will understand."

Mu Qingtian pursed his lips, and broke away from Zhu Jingshou's arms, as if he was out of breath and angry from embarrassment.

"Yes, yes, His Royal Highness King Qing should pack up and go back to Shuntian Mansion quickly, don't delay."

"The concubine is here, why should I pack my bags?" Zhu Jingshou laughed like a flower, knowing that Mu Qingtian would be really sad if he teased him again, so he stepped forward and pulled him into his arms fiercely.

"Since she is the concubine of this king, the bags must be packed together."

Mu Qingtian brightened visibly with the naked eye, and dimmed again after a while.

Even if Zhu Jingshou had a way to let him go to Shuntian Mansion, he couldn't leave everyone in Chongming County alone.Fubao Cuizhu, as well as Qingshan and the others, all came all the way from Zimingli.Having suffered through it, he must be grateful for their help.

"Qingqing reminded me." Zhu Jingshou's kisses fell on Mu Qingtian's cheek like raindrops.

"With so many people going to Beijing, it is indeed necessary to prepare in advance."

!!!

Zhu Jingshou looked at Mu Qingtian's dazed eyes, his heart was so itchy, he took another deep kiss on his slightly opened mouth.

Before the Mu's army defending the city could react, the gate of the city was pried open by the attacking Lord Zhu, and they drove straight in.The Mu family's army stood up to resist and slid around, but they were still defeated by Lord Zhu's long soldiers, and they surrendered after a while.

Zhu Jingshou What did he just say? ! !

After the kiss, Mu Qingtian's mind was still dazed, and the tip of his tongue was numb, as if electricity had been sent to his brain.

"Wake up, wake up, little Muji." Zhu Jingshou patted his princess on the face amusedly.

"What did you call me!" Mu Qingtian came back to his senses, subconsciously avoided the previous topic, and stretched out his hand to ask for "domestic/violence".

After being punched by Mu Qingtian, Zhu Jingshou yelled, he still had that hippie smile on his face.

"You're dumbfounded, aren't you, Little Muji?"

Who knew that Mu Qingtian sneered, turned against the guest, and directly grabbed Xiao Zhu.

"say it one more time."

"Mu...Mu Mu." Zhu Jingshou swallowed hard - not out of fear, but out of excitement.

"Tell me honestly, what's going on!" Mu Qingtian's subordinates exerted force, and then...

How did things become like this.Mu Qingtian hung up the dead fish eye again, and collapsed on the bed half dead.

"It seems that I have known each other before the return of Yan..." Zhu Jingshou was sitting on the sidelines full of energy, reciting a rather ironic poem.

"Shut up." Mu Qingtian turned over and bared his fangs.

Zhu Jingshou put down his book and walked briskly over, stroking Mu Qingtian's still hot cheek with his hand.

"Qingqing is awake?"

Heitui! !How did I fall asleep, don't you have any idea!

Seeing that Mu Qingtian regained his vitality, Zhu Jingshou began to speak slowly.

As Zhu Youtang's younger brother, even though he is away from Jiuzhen, he still has his own influence in Shuntian Mansion.A few days ago, they inquired about Li Guang's recent movements - entering the palace much more frequently than before.From the mouth of the star officials in the palace, I learned that the astronomical phenomena that Li Guang recently staged are all related to civil engineering, the calamity star.

Li Guang wanted to build a pavilion.

A preacher is not qualified to decide on civil construction, and Li Guang didn't really want to build a pavilion.

He most likely wants to take this opportunity to make another big fortune.

However, under the rectification of the emperor's brother, the Ministry of Industry is clear from top to bottom. There is no one from Li Guang, and no one will accept bribes from Li Guang.If Li Guang wants to build a pavilion, he must first obtain the consent of his brother, and then the Ministry of Industry and Households will work out the required silver taels, and the emperor and the officials will decide.

Ye Qi, Minister of the Household Department, belongs to the emperor's brother, but he may not necessarily support the construction of a pavilion.Li Guang needs an official who can compete with Master Ye and strive to build a cabinet.

This may be the reason why Li Guang was so eager to promote Mu Qingtian.

"He wants me to become an official in Shuntian Mansion?!" Mu Qingtian jumped up from the bed.

"I'm afraid so."

Moreover, it is a new official position that is free from the existing official position and has nothing but supervision power.

Zhu Jingshou sneered, hugged Mu Qingtian and let him lean on his shoulder.

"This king has long wanted to take you to the Shuntian Mansion. Since Li Guang is going to do it, why don't I help the situation."

Thinking of Shuntian Mansion, the first thing that popped into Mu Qingtian's mind was the bridal chamber...

It's over, I became a hooligan after being infected by hooligans orz

"That is to say, if I can solve this case, I will be transferred to Shuntian Mansion?" Mu Qingtian asked.

"Yeah." Zhu Jingshou kissed the tip of his nose lovingly, "Even if Li Guang doesn't have that ability, this king is reluctant to let Qingqing spend the New Year alone."

"Go and go." Mu Qingtian blushed and pushed Zhu Jingshou away, "It's obvious that you are lonely."

Zhu Jingshou grinned wider and said, "Qingqing is right, I am lonely. Will Qingqing be willing to spend this year with me?"

Mu Qingtian coughed reservedly and arrogantly, and said, "Since His Royal Highness King Qing said so, then the officials should be respectful rather than obedient."

"My dear Qingqing." Zhu Jingshou said in a low voice, and lay back on the bed with his arms around him.

Qian Duoduo: What parents are these?

Fortunately, Mu Qingtian hadn't completely turned into a "not early court" faint king. As soon as Xiaosan came to the news that Duoduo was ready to act, he took Zhu Jingshou to observe in secret.

The news that Duoduo brought back this time can be said to be very exciting.

"What?" Mu Qingtian stood up, "Ma'am, the voodoo grass figure?"

"Yes." Xiao San nodded, "Qian Duoduo saw it with his own eyes."

Not only that, Da Furen's doll was made up for her by Duoduo.

If you want to say that there is a lot of money, it is really a lot of skills.After he entered Wu's house, he became lively after two meals. He was also grateful to Wu's family and willing to do any dirty work.

[You go, I will help you. ] Duoduo smiled sweetly and gestured to a servant.

That family member usually likes to listen to plays, and it just so happens that An Ji's famous actress is on stage today, so he doesn't want to miss it.

"Can you do it well?" Jia Ding was a little moved.

[rest assured. ]

[I will not tell the master either. ]

The servant let out a sigh of relief, handed over all the work that needed to be done to Qian Duoduo, and told him how to do it.Before leaving, the servant felt a little guilty, and deliberately gave Duoduo a few copper coins, treating it as a hush money, just for peace of mind.

Duoduo accepted the copper plate with a smile, and waved to the servant's back.

Mu Qingtian: ...I've never seen a child who is so good at making money.

Within a few days, Qian Duoduo became acquainted with the servants of Wu's family.Seeing that Duoduo is young and cute, those maids usually take care of her.Everyone knows that Duoduo is easy to talk to and is willing to help, so they all come to him.

Helping, Duoduo was transferred to the Da Furen's yard.The lady's maid is the same as her master, taciturn and serious.

Duoduo put away his thoughts of making money, and obediently followed other people to do things.

It didn't take long for him to discover that there wasn't any dead grass in Da Furen's yard.

Every yard has a gardener who is responsible for pruning flowers and weeds.But gardeners alone can't get rid of it, and some weeds and withered grass grow on the edge of the rockery, which complement the rockery, and the gardener won't pull it out on purpose.

But Da Furen's yard was clean.

After observing for two days, I found that there are maids weeding in the yard every day.It was useless to spend such a lot of trouble, so he immediately kept his mind on it.

[Sister, I finished pulling it out for you. ] Duoduo shyly walked over dragging a bundle of grass.

The maid was a little surprised.She had gotten up very early, but she didn't expect the little mute to be faster than her.

[I will burn it. ]

"Hey!" the maid called Duoduo, then said softly, "Don't burn it, give it to me."

It turns out that these grasses are not useless, but that the lady likes to weave grass knots, so she asks people to pull hay every day for entertainment.

Duoduo thought of an idea.He secretly hid some grass, weaved a lifelike rabbit, and gave it to the maid who often saw the eldest lady.Sure enough, the maid liked the straw rabbit very much, and pinned it around her waist, which attracted the attention of the eldest lady.

"You made this up? It's so beautiful." The lady called to stop the maid.

The maid was flattered, she nodded her head and replied: "As for Madam, this rabbit was not made up by slaves."

"Oh? Who is that?"

Since then, Duoduo has added a new task: helping the lady weave straw knots.

Editing and editing, Duoduo discovered something was wrong again.There is a lot of hay sent to the lady's room every day, but she only weaves a few small animals, and then let the maid take them to the city and distribute them to the children on the street.

Where did the rest of the hay go?

"Who does the lady want to curse with the voodoo straw man?" Mu Qingtian asked.

"I don't know. Qian Duoduo said that he hasn't found out yet."

"No." Mu Qingtian pondered for a moment and said, "Tell him not to investigate yet."

Now it seems that everyone in the Wu family is not very clean.The place where they live is not a house, but a stage.All of them hide their own stories and thoughts, living vainly and submissively.

The murderer who murdered and dismembered the body was in the Wu Mansion, and he couldn't let one more boy be in danger.

"It's time for us to make an appearance." Mu Qingtian stood up, flicking his sleeves domineeringly.

"Father, father." Wu Shengye hurried to the silkworm farm.

"He's already a person with a weak crown, and he's still frizzy." Wu Can reprimanded him.

"The child knows his mistake."

"What's the matter."

"There is news from the government. The prince and the imperial envoy are coming to the mansion to investigate the case."

Wu Can took a deep breath and said, "Quickly ask the servants to tidy up the best yard to meet King Qing and the imperial envoy."

Before going to Wu's house, Mu Qingtian suddenly interrogated the three servants in the cell of the county government.

Er Niu said that he had worked in Wu's house for 20 years, worked diligently, and it was absolutely impossible for him to kill people and hide the legs of the dead bodies in the cabin.

"It must be Shuanzi, he picked the boat, it's none of the villain's business, my lord!"

Shuanzi said that there were not many boats docking at the pier that day, and they bought a lot of mulberry leaves, so they had to pick the biggest boat to transport them so as not to violate the rules.

"Cheng Rong and the little one have always been at odds. You can go to Wu's house and ask. Cheng Rong has always been full of lies. You must not believe his slanderous words!"

Cheng Rong said that he is the most respected by the master in the mansion, because he often reports on those lazy servants, so he is not very popular in the mansion.

"It's Er Niu! He has to stop the boat to wait for some golden carp, so he will delay the time! It is also he who wants to have a koi fish, and the young one will lie to Mr. Chen!"

The three of them insisted on their own words to identify each other, and it was a mess at all.

After Mu Qingtian carefully read the confession, he ordered Er Niu and Shuan Zi to be taken back to the prison, leaving only Cheng Rong.

Cheng Rong was frightened out of his wits, knelt up and cried loudly: "My lord! My lord! The little one is really wronged! Really wronged!!!"

"Silence!" Mu Qingtian slapped the gavel.

"Recount one by one how you got the koi that day!"

The fog on the river was not very heavy when we sailed, the three of them were chatting, and the boat quickly reached the opposite bank.Shuanzi stayed on the boat to watch, while Chengrong and Erniu got off the boat to buy mulberry leaves.

It didn't take long for the fog to thicken. Shuanzi looked at the lake worriedly, afraid of losing his way when he went back.When Cheng Rong and Er Niu came back, the three decided to return immediately after summing up.

When going there, the three of them rowed alternately, and when they went back, it was Cheng Rong and Er Niu rowing, with Shuan Zi pressing the cargo at the end.

"My lord, that carp really jumped onto the deck suddenly, it has nothing to do with the little one." Cheng Rong waved his hands in horror.

None of them had ever seen such a big carp, and the scales on its back were still shining with golden light.The golden carp kept slapping the deck very hard, throwing water into the eyes of Cheng Rong and Er Niu.

The fog was too heavy, and Er Niu was afraid that the carp would interfere with their sailing, so he handed over the oars to Cheng Rong, walked over with a stick and beat the carp to death.

Seeing the huge carp with tight flesh, Er Niu was moved.He said to Shuan Zi, who was resting near the cabin, that there must be more golden carp here, should we stop the boat here and catch a few more.

Both Shuan Zi and Cheng Rong were moved.Cheng Rong put down the oars, and Shuan Zi also came to the deck. The two of them carefully observed the water surface through the mist to see if they could find something more valuable.

Er Niu picked up the carp and put it into the cabin.

Mu Qingtian's complexion changed slightly, and he asked, "Did Er Niu put the carp into the cabin?"

"Yes! Yes!" Cheng Rong hurriedly said, "My lord, that kid has been uneasy from the very beginning."

"Okay, take it down." Mu Qingtian said.

It seems that the human legs were placed below the deck before the ship sailed, and Cheng Rong, who picked the ship, was very suspicious; while the other two went to the other side to buy goods, Shuan Zi stayed on the ship, which was also suspected; When rowing, he could have called Shuanzi to put the carp into the cabin, but he put down the oars to do it himself, which is still quite suspicious.

One of them was an accomplice of the Wu Fu killer.The goal of a complete corpse is too big, so the murderer thought of the method of "dividing the corpse" and throwing it into the water little by little, so that there will be no proof.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong the first time, the right time, place and people, the appearance of Jin Li and Chen Feng completely destroyed the murderer's plan.

As for why there is only one accomplice instead of three, the reason is very simple.If all three were accomplices, the corpse's legs would have been thrown overboard long ago, and it would not be Chen Feng's turn to find them.If there were two accomplices, the task of throwing the corpse would be very simple. If it was not possible, another unsuspecting servant could "accidentally fall into the water".

When there is only one person, he only needs to consider avoiding the eyes and ears of other people and secretly throwing the corpse out.

Mu Qingtian changed into his official uniform, and went to Wu Mansion in two carriages with Zhu Jingshou.

Wu Can was waiting at the door with his wife and two sons very early, when he saw the government's carriage approaching, he rushed to meet it, and prostrated himself on the ground before the carriage stopped.

Zhu Jingshou has a distinguished status and is the first.After his carriage stopped, the guard Li Dian shouted loudly: "The prince is here!"

"Grassman Wu Can, welcome His Royal Highness Prince Qing." Wu Can straightened up, knelt down again, and saluted.

Mrs. Wu also saluted, only Wu Shengsi lay on the ground in a daze, motionless.

"Brother." Wu Shengye was a little anxious, and pushed Wu Shengsi.

His voice was not loud, but it seemed very abrupt due to the silence around him.

Wu Shengsi's body tilted to the side and almost fell down.

"Presumptuous!!" Li Dian scolded.

Wu Can's whole body tensed up, and he hurriedly apologized.He didn't dare to look up, only heard the curtain move slightly, and someone got out of the carriage.

"My lord! The grassroots have no way to teach their children, please forgive me!" He said excitedly.

"Master Wu, don't be too polite." A young voice sounded.

Wu Can was overjoyed, but was dumbfounded when he stood up.Where is the prince standing in front of him, but Mu Qingtian in official uniform.

"This, this." Wu Can said incoherently.

Zhu Jingshou shook his head helplessly in his carriage, and said at the right time: "Lord Mu."

"The minister is here." Mu Qingtian gave Wu Can a meaningful look, turned around and walked to the side of Zhu Jingshou's carriage, and helped him lift the curtain with his own hands, and helped the wealthy Prince Chang'an get off the carriage.

Who knew that Zhu Jingshou was halfway there, and suddenly said: "This king thinks this land is big."

How could Wu Can not understand what Zhu Jingshou meant, and said: "Your Majesty is a precious body, please wait a moment, the little one will let someone lead the way."

"Your Majesty Mu, follow me too, so there's no trouble." Zhu Jingshou had a smile on his face.

Mu Qingtian blinked and said, "Then it would be rude to be an official."

Good guy, it's so exciting to show your affection in front of a bunch of people!
