Eldest daughter

Chapter 193
Zhang Dapeng and Lin Biao are dead!

It was a mountain hunter who found the faces of the two dead. It is said that when the hunter went hunting in Changbai Mountain in the next town, he found the two dead in a mountain stream, about three feet apart.

Lin Biao was pierced with a dagger, holding a blood-stained stone in his hand, and there were many banknotes scattered around.On the other hand, Zhang Dapeng held a dagger in his hand and had a hole in his head. According to Wu's autopsy, the wound on Lin Biao's body was caused by the dagger held by Zhang Dapeng, and the bloody wound on Zhang Dapeng's head was also the same as the stone on Lin Biao's hand. The blocks were the same, and it was preliminarily determined that the two had a dispute over the uneven distribution of spoils, and each killed the other with a sharp weapon.

Mrs. Zhang passed out immediately after hearing the news, and stumbled to her mother's house as soon as she woke up.

Mrs. Wang and Old Man Wang couldn't hide their shock and surprise. The first thing they thought of was that they were dead. Wasn't there no evidence of death? Wasn't the second child just about to be rescued?But hearing Wang Yuan'er say that Cui Yuan promised to protect Wang Er, the heart that has been worrying all the time is relieved.

As for Wang Yuan'er, she felt that this matter was strange everywhere. It seemed that it was only a small case, but two living lives were involved, and the spoils were not evenly distributed. The reason was even more far-fetched.

Zhang Dapeng is just an intermediary introducer, how can there be such a saying that the spoils are not evenly distributed?In detail, as a middleman, he was the most secure in this transaction, but he lost his life?
The more I think about it, the more I feel the fog inside, as if an invisible hand is fueling the flames, fiddle with the chessboard.

He couldn't understand it, and Wang Yuan'er didn't think about it, but Old Man Wang and the others planned to go to Zhang's family to express their condolences, fearing that there would be another trouble.

County government.

Cui Yuan also talked about this case with Li Xian.

"If both Zhang Dapeng and Lin Biao were still alive, it would be an ordinary shoddy business, which would not attract attention, but two lives were caused, and people have to pay attention to it." Cui Yuan Flipping through the dossier handed up by the people below, he said softly.

"What do you think?" Li Xian looked at him.

This person followed the emperor when he was still a prince, and had all kinds of resourcefulness, but he didn't follow the emperor's heart to find an official position, which is really unpredictable.

"Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is aimed at Pei Gong!" Cui Yuan threw the stack of files aside.

"You mean?" Li Xian frowned.

"If you think about it carefully, if this batch of wood is used on the river embankment, what will be the consequences if there is a flood and the embankment is destroyed? And once it is found that there is a problem with the wood used in the embankment, you say that the first thing to do is to ask Whose crime is it?" Cui Yuan looked at him and closed his eyes; "Dengwen Drum Case, you also know how it came about."

Li Xian's face changed slightly, and he said, "That's the one who came after me."

He is the magistrate of Changle. Although he is only a magistrate, he is in charge of the expansion of the river in Changle Town. If something goes wrong, who is responsible?
The answer is self-evident.

Asking his responsibility, he naturally wanted to pull him down, but why, he was just a magistrate.

"The Shibo Department is about to select a site and start construction. Changle has become one of the ports. It is not the tiny place it was back then." Cui Yuan said plainly.

"It's really ridiculous!" Li Xian slapped the table heavily, and said angrily: "It's just a magistrate's position, but it's worth such a fight, and such a sinister trick. Don't they know that if this batch of timber If it is really not found out and used, it will be a serious injury to the people and Changle?"

He is upright by nature, and he can't see such people and things who take the lives of the people and ignore them the most. As an official, he should serve the country and the people, not put the people in danger for his own selfishness.

"Three years to Qingzhi county, one hundred thousand snowflake silver." Cui Yuan said lightly, seeing Li Xian's face darkened, he hurriedly changed his words: "I didn't mean you."

Li Xian snorted, don't start.

"A county magistrate, after all, is in charge of a piece of land, not to mention the city ship department is right in front of him. Once the trade starts, the merchant ships coming and going, how is it worse than those rich and prosperous places in the south of the Yangtze River?" Cui Yuan smiled.

"Who do you think it was?" Li Xian frowned.

"If you want to investigate, just investigate Lin Biao and Zhang Dapeng. In my opinion, the breakthrough point should be relatively large if you investigate from Lin Biao." Cui Yuan pondered for a moment.

Li Xian nodded, but couldn't figure it out.

"This case is actually full of loopholes. There are so many people on the river, but anyone with a heart will always find out. If the person who set up the situation really wanted to pull me down, how could he use such a low-end method? Just like now , It was discovered before it was used, even if it hurt me, what's the use? One careless, and it is easy to expose yourself, this is a stupid thing to shoot yourself in the foot." He said expressed his doubts.

Li Xian also made some sense. Who could be such a stupid political opponent?Who would want Li Xian to step down, who will benefit from his step down?

Speaking of Li Xian, before the emperor ascended the throne, he was arranged by him to be the county magistrate in Changle. To put it bluntly, he is also the emperor's confidant. He is only here in Changle to accumulate qualifications, and he will definitely be promoted soon. , Rectifying Li Xian is really not a good thing, if it is not done well, it will attract suspicion in vain!
Cui Yuan pursed his lips and knocked on the table, could it be that he missed something?

It's not that Cui Yuan missed the calculation, but that he overestimated the person behind it.

In the study of the Tang family, the second master Tang summoned his elder brother and third younger brother, as well as Tang Xiu'an and Tang Xiuping, the elders of the Tang family.

Master Tang Er angrily smashed a dotted pink and blue bowl at Tang Xiu'an's feet, and said angrily: "You have done a good job, but you have no duty and ability, so you just take care of the family business honestly, make your own decisions, and take care of yourself. Ba Ziwei, what do you think you are doing? You are going to kill your second uncle, do you know that?"

Tang Xiu'an pursed his lips tightly, his face full of dissatisfaction.

"Second brother, what happened here?" Elder Tang was at a loss.

"Ask your son, what has he done in private!" Master Tang Er stared.

Tang Xiu'an said: "Second Uncle, I am also thinking of my family."

"For the sake of the family? Do you have that ability?" Master Tang Er sneered: "Just arrange for someone to put a few rotten pieces of wood, and Li Xian can be pulled down? Worry, the transfer to Changle town two years ago was arranged by the emperor before he ascended the throne. It is clear that he is a loyal minister of the emperor. Before next year, Li Xian will be able to return to Beijing with a high profile. If not, he will go straight to the next level The position of the magistrate, which onion are you, are you going to touch Li Xian?"

"It's just a failure." Tang Xiu'an said in a nasty voice.

"Fart! What is this called falling short of success? The huge river, you think everyone is blind? Can't see the clues of those logs? You know why you failed in doing things, because you didn't do things comprehensively enough. You have the heart to do this kind of thing , you should do it all up and down, twist the hemp rope into one, and put everyone on the same boat, so that the boat won't capsize. But now, what's the use of letting Wang Er take the wood? The stage has not even been set up yet, it has already collapsed." Master Tang Er blushed with anger: "Your fault is your own fault, and you used such a low-end method without consulting me beforehand. It's all over now , The matter got into the basket, and you killed people in a hurry to silence it, even a three-year-old child knows that there is something tricky in it!"

He was really angry, when he learned that this elder nephew had done such a foolish thing full of loopholes, he was scared out of his wits, and rushed back without stopping, and the news he heard was murderous, he almost lost his anger!

If the heads of those two people are found, they will stuff their mouths with some silver, and just bite them to death for the crime of shoddy, at worst, they will get some boards, why is this so?Now that someone was killed, Li Xian couldn't do it if he didn't want to investigate carefully!
"What, the elder brother did the second uncle's greed for ink?" Tang Xiuping finally connected the matter together from the words of the second uncle and the elder brother.

Wang Er, Min'er's father, he knew about that matter, and Min'er's mother came to beg, but the family refused to take care of her, and besides, Rong knew about him and Min'er again, and made a scene. He didn't dare to touch his hands anymore.

But now, it was actually made by the eldest brother, why is this?
Tang Xiu'an lowered his head and remained silent, but his heart was full of dissatisfaction. He was just unlucky. He was ruined by Chen Zhou. What kind of official was Li Xian at the time, and he would definitely step down. Isn't that what happened in the Dengwen drum case?If he pulls Li Xian down from the stage, he has to remember it. Let's see how the second uncle can disdain and support the big house!

That's right, Tang Xiu'an just wasn't convinced, obviously his house was the big one, but just because he didn't study well, he was going to be oppressed by his second uncle and his father, his mother was oppressed by his second aunt, Could it be that his son Brother Cong will also be unable to make his mark all his life?
Brother Cong is almost fifteen, and next year he will definitely be able to bring back a freshman, and in the future, with such a feat, Da Fang will be able to feel proud.

If Cui Yuan knew what happened to the Tang family at this time, he might spit out a mouthful of old blood. I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen such stupid people. You sing in the front, and I collapse in the back. Also not far away.

Mr. Tang always followed his second brother's eyes and acted as a human being. Now that he heard that his son had stabbed a big basket, it didn't sound good, and he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Second brother, what should we do now?"

"What should I do? I took the team in advance when the crown prince fell. If it weren't for my mentor and father-in-law, I would have been dismissed and returned home a long time ago. If so, I would even be demoted two levels. I tried my best to win the marriage of the Rong family, and use the marriage to support the situation. You are good, you just don't make any achievements, but you are just trying to tear down the stage, and I want you to wipe your ass, why do I have such a stupid nephew like you!" Master Tang went back and forth Stamped around the study, furious.

If a person is killed, he must be investigated carefully. Once the head of the Tang family is found, can he still sit down from the position of the fifth rank?I'm afraid it's coming to an end!
"Whether the Tang family can pass this test or not depends on God!" Master Tang Er sat down on a chair, covered in cold sweat.
