I'm covered by this devil

"If we knew this earlier, we might as well live in the forest and be with those ghosts."

In the prison of the county yamen, Yun Qing sighed and said, Boss Chi can handle it if he encounters a ghost, but now he is wronged and murdered, if he can't find out by then, he will lose his head.

Chang Buyan, Chi Yu, and Yun Qing were locked together, while Xiao Lian was locked on the other side because she was a woman, farther away.

"Come on, is there anyone!"

Chang Buyan suddenly slammed on the cell door and shouted a few words, a jailer came over and scolded: "Why are you arguing, don't you want to live?!"

"I want to see your county magistrate."

"You can see our lord if you want, take it well, and you will see it if the trial starts tomorrow."

After the man finished speaking, he wanted to leave, Chang Buyan took out a token from his pocket and said: "You can see clearly, this is the token of Prince Chang's Mansion, if your lord wants to keep the black hat, come see me quickly .”

The jailer looked at Chang Buyan suspiciously, and Chang Buyan said leisurely: "Of course, if it's delayed because of you, I don't need to say what will happen then."

"You wait."

The jailer left in a hurry, and came back after a while, followed by the magistrate of Hanxi City, the magistrate took a look at the token in Chang Buyan's hand, and said in horror: " I don’t know who the son’s identity is…”

"Prince Chang is my father, what do you think I am?!"

"The lower official has no eyes, and he didn't know that it was His Royal Highness, come here, so he opened the prison door quickly." After the county magistrate finished speaking, the head catcher next to him suddenly said: "But my lord, he is a suspect. The prince's crime is the same as that of the common people."

"This……"

Chi Yu came over and asked, "Has Wu Zuo checked out when the dozens of people in the city lord's mansion were killed?"

"About the beginning of the Xu Dynasty."

"Xu Shichu?" Chang Buyan recalled a bit, and said: "At the beginning of Xu Shichu, some of us set off river lanterns by the river beside the East Street. There were so many people present at that time, they were all witnesses."

The head catcher said: "Just because the people present don't mean they have noticed you."

"You should have noticed, after all, I distributed more than 200 river lanterns for free."

Headhunter and county magistrate: "..." This is really too much money.

The county magistrate ordered the head arrester to send someone to look for witnesses, and he didn't dare to be negligent, so he stayed in the prison and waited for the news. After half an hour, the head arrester actually found several witnesses, two of which were still at the time. The river lantern hawker.

With the alibi, Chang Buyan and the four of them were cleared of suspicion for the time being, and several people were invited to the main hall behind the county government office. Chang Buyan looked at the head arrester and asked, "What's your name?"

"Subordinate Peng Zhe."

Originally, Peng Zhe thought that His Royal Highness was definitely going to settle accounts with him now, but he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, so his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing.

The county magistrate said: "His Royal Highness, calm down, Butou Peng is just such a dead-headed person, in fact, he didn't..."

"When did I say I was angry? I just think that the prince's attitude of breaking the law and the common people is very good just now. It is a blessing for the people of Hanxi City to have such an upright headhunter like you."

Peng Zhe was startled, and quickly replied: "Your Highness is absurdly praised, this subordinate is only doing what it is supposed to do."

Chang Buyan nodded, then became serious, and asked, "What happened to the murder in the City Lord's Mansion?"

The county magistrate replied: "The lower officials didn't know the news for a long time. Liu Laosan, who was in charge of delivering food to the city lord's mansion, noticed something strange in the mansion. After seeing a lot of corpses, he rushed to report the case."

"Only a few of us have been invited into the City Lord's Mansion today, so you suspect that we are the murderers?"

"This, Your Highness, don't take offense."

"Is it true that none of them survived?"

The county magistrate shook his head, Chang Buyan suddenly kicked over the stool by his feet, the county magistrate was so frightened that he quickly knelt down, and Peng Zhe also knelt down when he saw this.

"His Royal Highness calm down, it's a dereliction of duty."

Chang Buyan clenched his fists, in fact he was not angry with the county magistrate, but he felt that Liu Mengzhu must have believed that she would protect his parents by following the man's wishes, but in the end he didn't protect any of them.

Who is it, is it the poisonous hand of that person, or is it someone else who has nothing to do with it?
