But I'm a male fox
Page 239
Speaking of which, this is another case of injustice.
It turned out that Zhang Yan was the magistrate of a small county around Qincheng before he defected to Potian. Because he was honest and did not take bribes, his official reputation was very good, but his official position had not been promoted.
One day two years ago, all the family of Bao family in the county were massacred, leaving only the second young lady who was abused by the murderer.
Such a serious case occurred in the territory, Zhang Yan immediately led people to search and arrest the whole county, and soon found the suspect - a passing by here, surnamed Wu Xiu.
He said he was a suspect, but considering the bruises on the Bao family's body and Wu Xiu's undisguised arrogance, Zhang Yan was basically sure that this person was the murderer.
However, when he was about to try the case, several people surnamed Hua came down from Qincheng. They brought a large sum of money to Zhang Yan, claiming that the murderer was their young master, and almost ordered Zhang Yan to acquit him people let go.
Zhang Yan had heard about the reputation of the Hua family in Qincheng, and knew that although this family was not as good as Wang Cao's, it was considered a wealthy family in Rushui Province.
But he wants to be a good official more than gold and silver!
So he resolutely rejected the members of the Hua family, and insisted on judging according to the law, and then...
He lost his official position.
In a place far away from the capital, it is impossible for an official at the county magistrate level to fight against an intricate family.
After becoming a commoner, Zhang Yan watched helplessly as the new county magistrate put all the blame on Bao Qi, saying that the latter poisoned the whole family to death, and soaked them in a pig cage the next day.
Not to mention, afterward, Young Master Hua who was released came directly to the door, threatening to give Zhang Yan some flair.
At this moment, the ghost of the Second Young Mistress suddenly appeared and scared Master Hua away.
"Since then, she has come to me every night, hoping that I can avenge her... To some extent, she can be regarded as entangled with me..."
Back to the present, Zhang Yan looked at the female ghost above his head, and sighed, "The reason why I didn't ask someone to get rid of her is that apart from being grateful for her kindness in scaring away Young Master Hua, I also feel ashamed."
"Every time I see her, it's like warning myself to be a real good official and not let this kind of thing happen again!"
Hearing this, Li Cheng was in awe of Zhang Yan.
He is willing to respect everyone who can persist in himself in troubled times.
He then asked: "Speaking of which, the Hua family is a local family in Qincheng, but now in the past two years, you are no longer what you used to be, and you are in a high position. Have you ever sought revenge from their family?"
"Oh, I looked for it, but it didn't work."
Zhang Yan's eyes revealed a strong sense of powerlessness, as if there was a big hole in his heart:
"The Hua family doesn't know what it is. They are clearly a family, but they became the lord's internal support a long time ago, and later became the heroes of our army who broke the city. Now they are ministers with me. And the young master Hua who killed people back then, It even disappeared half a year ago, and no one can find it."
"In the end, even though I have vengeance, I don't know where to start it. I can't turn around Tu Hua's family, right?"
To put it bluntly, the enemy's family has become a colleague, and the master is still missing. Zhang Yan has nothing to do, so he can only stare at the haunted female ghost every day.
After chatting for a few more words, Li Cheng bid farewell to Zhang Yan and returned to the house.
"Xiang Gong..."
A certain fox was late for so long, Dugu Zhi puffed up her cheeks, not very happy.
But she quickly noticed that Li Cheng seemed to have something on his mind, so she quickly posted it and asked softly, "Did you encounter something at night?"
"...I heard a very sad story."
Li Cheng smiled slightly, turned over to the top and said, "I'll deal with it tomorrow, and tonight we...well, as usual."
As soon as the words fell, the dragon girl entangled her, and under great force... she returned to the top.
"Since that's the case, Mr. Xianggong, you can rest well tonight, and leave everything to my concubine~"
"...Uh, I don't think that's a break."
About fifteen hundred words passed.
Early the next morning, Li Cheng found an excuse, came out of Zhang's mansion, asked people all the way, and rushed straight to Hua's mansion in Qincheng.
But after hearing the story last night, he became nosy.
Of course, he definitely wouldn't hit the Hua family or Turen Man's family directly, but just wanted to ask their own family members if they knew the young master's whereabouts by using ecstasy.
For a fourth-rank monster, this is a trivial matter - and he had asked in advance, the Hua family is a family of martial arts, the highest in the family is only sixth-rank, and it will not pose a threat to him.
Two quarters of an hour later, Li Cheng came to Hua's house.
The vermilion gate and the three-meter-high wall are very impressive.
Li Cheng had no intention of barging in.So I sat down at a nearby breakfast stall, eating buns while watching the flow of people coming in and out.
Finally, he saw a middle-aged man in brocade clothes come out amidst the nodding and bowing of the doorman, followed by four respectful servants.
This kind of person can ask for valuable information.
He stuffed the remaining three buns into his mouth in one breath, puffed his cheeks, ran to a secluded place and turned into a fat sparrow, and followed the man.
Turn left and turn right, and you come to a luxury restaurant.
Li Cheng landed on the tiles, saw this person enter the room on the top floor, and greeted a powerful martial artist with seventh-rank strength.
"Haha, brother Hua, come quickly, I've been waiting for you for a long time, the food is going to be cold!"
"Oh, I'm so sorry! The mother-in-law at home was crying and wasting a lot of time."
"Oh? Presumably Madam is begging you to bring your son back?"
"You guessed right..."
"Haha, that's fine, let's not talk about these headaches, I have a gift for you..."
As Wuxiu said, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and said, "Here are three Yangyuan Pills, which are the rewards that General Sima begged for with great difficulty."
"Ouch! This, this gift is too expensive..."
"You are welcome, we both work under the general, so we should help each other and serve the general! The general needs us to unite as one."
"Wait, listen to what you mean, but he is dissatisfied with our general again?"
"No, there was a lot of quarrel yesterday!"
"Shh, be careful that walls have ears..."
I don't know if the partition wall has ears, but there is indeed a sparrow squatting on the tile outside the window.
In the past few days under Zhang Yan's command, Li Cheng had already recognized the big men under Poetian's command. He knew that General Sima's full name was Sima Mao.
It seems that I heard some private things again...
Write it down and write it down.
Another hour later, Li Cheng finally waited until the Hua's family had finished eating, and went out.
It looks like he's ready to go home.
It doesn't matter if there is a little delay on the way, right?
After following him for so long, Li Cheng was sure that this person was not surrounded by other experts to protect him, so while he was still on the road, he used enchantment to lure him into an alley.
After a few words, he asked what he wanted to know.
It turned out that the person in front of him was none other than the murderer's biological father!
And the young master of the Hua family who was the murderer was naturally not missing, but under the arrangement of the family, he went to become a monk in a temple outside the city, planning to sneak back after a few years when Zhang Yan began to forget things.
In various senses, it is a very standard set of tactics for getting into trouble and avoiding the limelight... It makes Li Cheng feel familiar.
It's a pity that this young master of the Hua family has no fairies or witches around him, only a fox who is staring at him.
Seeing that it was still early, Li Cheng decided to finish the matter quickly.
Worrying things don't stay overnight, reducing mental internal friction.
After modifying the memory of Master Hua, he let him go, turned around and left the city, and found the temple named Huiming Temple.
Li Cheng circled in the sky, and before he could choose where to go in, he saw a hunchbacked man rolling out from the back door.
"Ouch! Young Master Hua, please spare me!"
There was still a big footprint on the back of the man, and he gritted his teeth in pain, but he still turned around and kowtowed towards the back door.
At this time, a bald young man with fair skin walked out with a pace that no relatives would recognize, raised the dog leg in his hand and said: "You boy, you promised to get me a woman in the evening, now you can't talk, you deserve it!" Get beaten!"
"Young master, you misunderstood! I just said that the original girl can't come, not that I can't get a new one... Big deal, I'll go to the village and catch one for you!"
"Ha, that's kind of interesting."
That Young Master Hua gnawed on the dog's leg, shook his head and said, "Spare your life!"
After speaking, he threw out another silver coin.
"Thank you sir!"
The hunchback picked up the silver, kowtowed and said, "I promise to get you a juicy yellow flower girl!"
"Fart, just brag about you!"
Young Master Hua twisted his muscular arm and said, "How can there be any good things in this broken country? The good things are all in the city! Recently I heard that there is still that oiran... What a pity, what a pity I am now Can't go back..."
"It's all to blame on that damned Zhang Yan! If you are a county magistrate, you should be a county magistrate. Don't worry about scraping land and making money? Why do you have to meddle in your own business!"
"I just killed a few ordinary people, what's the matter! Those who make irresponsible remarks come to me to seek revenge, and I didn't kill his family members, what a fuss!"
Speaking of this, Young Master Hua was full of resentment, unable to vent his anger, he raised his hand and gave the hunchback another slap.
"Ouch!"
Pure venting of anger belongs to yes.
In the sky, Li Cheng looked at this scene with a cold expression.
Yep, another insect.
Even pretending to be a monk, not a single hair on his body has Buddha nature!
But if this person is so lustful...
Things are easy to handle.
After the hunchback left, Li Cheng came down quietly and made a hint in Master Hua's subconscious.
Turning his head, Young Master Hua blinked, and suddenly had a very reasonable idea in his heart.
He murmured to himself: "Grandpa can't bear these bad days! Grandpa, I'm going to see the oiran tonight! Guess it's impossible for the man surnamed Zhang to guard the brothel all day? Hehe, I'm sure I'll be fine!"
Seeing that the hint was successful, Li Cheng flapped his wings, chirped and laughed for a while, and then flew back to Qincheng.
Then he immediately asked to see Zhang Yan.
"Mr. Li, why are you so anxious to see me?"
"Master Zhang, have you heard about the oiran competition tonight?"
"heard about it......"
As one of the most prosperous cities in Rushui Province, Qincheng holds some carnival activities for the whole people every year, and this oiran competition is the most embarrassing among them.
Li Cheng pretended to be serious and said: "My lord, I think we can keep an eye on this oiran competition, maybe the murderer of the Hua family will also come to see it."
"Huh? Will this happen?"
"My lord, what do you think..."
Li Cheng started fooling around, ah no, it was analysis!
"You also think that the young master of the Hua family is not missing, right? But that person is not strong, and his talent is not good. Does their family dare to let him run thousands of miles away and hide in a place beyond the reach of the whip? No, probably It’s still in Rushui Province!”
"And that person can do such things as murdering the whole family and raping women. It can be seen that most of them are extremely lustful and have no self-control. Tell me, if this kind of person is nearby and hears about the Oiran competition, can he bear it?"
This... makes sense!
Then go check it out, it's not a loss anyway!
In the evening, Zhang Yan took Li Bai and the two of them, as well as a group of guards, to the biggest brothel in the city.
...Putting through the chaos of the official system under Po Tian's command, and in addition, people with status in this era like to support thugs, so even if Zhang Yan is now a civil servant, he can easily recruit a large number of people.
They arrived near the brothel, looked around at the bustling people, and then...
I saw a bald head emerge from the crowd.
