Chapter 176 Must Save People ([-])
The scouts on the side repeated Bai Qing's Beijing accent in the Donglin dialect he was learning now. Yuan Ting nodded while listening, and raised his hand to ask Bai Qing and the others to sit down at the dining table in the courtyard. The villagers in front of the stove hurriedly boiled water again. Each person sat with a bowl of clear water and said slowly.

It was discussed early in the morning that the blacklist was prescribed eye drops. One by one, the villagers took out everything they knew about the past. Not only Shen's, but also all influential and powerful households in the county were ordered over and over again, because they They are all relatives by marriage, like the Shen family, the children of the family are officials at all levels of government in Heyang Prefecture, and their in-laws are all over the prefecture. Home can be said to be complete.

Yuan Ting and the others are so clear about it because these big households have a big deal every time they have a wedding or a wedding, and the common people also eat the water mats, which makes people talk about it for half a month, and the villagers have eaten it themselves. Many stories are here From what I heard on the surface, most stories have a beginning but no end.

Fortunately, Bai Qing and Cheng Feng are not ordinary people. Based on their experience and knowledge, from the beginning of these stories, it can already be guessed that most of the common people involved will not end well. Besides, it doesn’t matter if there is no ending. Discussions cannot be made out of nothing. As long as you know that these things have happened, you can always find out the details when you go back to the county.

They chatted until midnight. Bai Qing and Cheng Feng knew how to ask questions better, and almost exhausted the stories in the stomachs of the villagers. Then they left in a hurry with a torch in the dark, and rushed back to Donglin County outside the county seat overnight. The Qianhu Office discussed countermeasures with the left-behind generals. As for the remaining blood in the village, a few scouts were left behind to wait until dawn to check and report to the county.

It was only at this time that Bai Qing heard more news. Yesterday evening, gossip had spread on the street. An old boatman surnamed Zhao took a trip to the yamen and brought two officials and a girl to the county. Then, in the afternoon, the yamen took in a new girl and locked it in a women's prison for repeat offenders. The clerk of a small restaurant near the yamen saw it with his own eyes when he delivered food to the prison.

Comparing the two and one, plus the fact that the disciples who followed the officials watched Qi Ke enter the Yamen and never come out, it can already be concluded that the girl the restaurant boy saw was Qi Ke.

The cane sticks are exiled, and the prisons for repeat offenders usually hold the latter two types of prisoners. Qi Ke was sent to the place where he must die as soon as he entered the yamen. It is very easy to punish people. If you can immediately kill half of the person without any trauma, and wait for the person to be dragged out for interrogation when he is drowsy, then it is up to the people in the hall to fiddle with it.

The officers knew the stakes and the dire consequences, and they were all discussing how to get people out as soon as possible.

"Our problem now is that we recognize that the title deed in Qi Ke's hand is real, and with the influence of the Shen family in the county, they can easily get a brand new title deed and erase the old title deed in Qi Ke's hand. , turned into a sale between the salt merchant and the Shen family."

"Then tomorrow's situation is mainly based on observation? Let's see what's going on in the yamen? When they arrived at the dock yesterday, the family of the deceased made a fuss, but it's just that they didn't get any benefits."

"It's nothing to worry about the family making troubles. They will make troubles and we will make troubles. If they disturb the water, it depends on which side the people are willing to stand on. According to the villagers, Qi Ke beat off dozens of people guarding Zhuangzi by himself, with a dog. A big man, after dawn, we can completely release the rumors, saying that the deceased himself provoked wild animals and was killed on the mountain, and the family members made troubles for no reason. Just because he was a servant of the Shen family, he dared to turn black and white and frame the little girl for harm. People like this kind of story very much. If we can finally prove that it was Shen who framed him maliciously, it will be in our own interest."

The Bai family army came from afar to reorganize the coastal defense. Naturally, they want to grab power with the established local forces and compete for who is the boss who has the final say. His arrogance is not worthy of the reputation of the Bai family army that has been fought on the battlefield for many years, not to mention that Bai Qing is in charge of Donglin County, and all the villages and towns under his rule are under his control.
