Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 200 Leading the Inspection Department on behalf of the Inspection Department

Wu Qingxi was startled when he heard this, and was about to yell at him immediately, but seeing Hu Qian's expression was unkind, he forced himself back.

Hu Qian asked again: "Why did you beat Yue Laosan?"

"Because he's really deceiving people too much. He eats my food and sleeps with me. He doesn't give money, and makes trouble every day."

"What did Wu Qingxi use to stab him?"

"dagger."

"Where did you stab it?"

"In the alley behind Cangchun Tower."

"It was you who hit him first, or he stabbed him first."

"He stabbed first.

Yue Laosan said that he was a gentle scum, and that he had messed with his wife. He became furious and chased him out to stab him. "

"Why didn't you tell the truth before?"

"Wu Qingxi gave me 300 taels of silver."

Hu Qian nodded, "Did Yuhong attack Wu Qingxi?"

"do not know."

"Did you poison Yue Laosan?"

"No."

Hu Qian nodded, and then looked at Wu Qingxi, "Wu Qingxi committed a criminal offense, and now I want to remove your reputation, you have something to say!"

Wu Qingxi's face was ashen. Facing the confession of the procuress, he couldn't justify himself, so he could only say dejectedly: "The student has nothing to say."

"Your Majesty!"

Wu Qingxi was taken aback for a moment, then knelt on the ground.

"Come on, what the bustard said just now is the truth?"

"Yes, it's the truth, but the student... Cao Min didn't kill anyone, he just wanted to teach him a lesson. The third Yue was fine when he left."

Hu Qian said: "Boss Yue, I want to ask you if Laosan Yue and your father, Laogou, have any complaints."

Boss Yue was taken aback for a moment, then hesitated and said, "Both of them like Yuhong..."

Hu Qian said: "Sure enough. Come on, Chuanyue, the old dog, will go to court!"

After a while, a tall and thin old man was brought over. When he saw Hu Qian, he immediately knelt down and said, "Old dog Caominyue, I have met you."

"Old dog Yue, do you recognize Yuhong?"

"Recognize."

"Where were you the night Yuhong died?"

"sleeping at home."

Hu Qian laughed, "How do you know when Yuhong died?"

Yue Laogou was taken aback, "Caomin... I heard what others said..."

"Who said that?"

"When drinking tea on the street, listen to what the people next to you say."

"How dare you lie! It seems that you don't need to be punished! You don't know my methods!"

As he spoke, he threw down the order sign, "Twenty sticks! Hit me hard!"

However, when the yamen servant was about to beat him, Yue Laogou suddenly jumped up, rushed out the door in two or three steps, and disappeared in a flash.

Hu Qian smiled slightly, "It turns out that he has practiced lightness skills, no wonder he was able to rush to Yuhong's room."

Before the words were finished, the people had already chased him out, and when a group of yamen servants were about to chase after him, Hu Qian had already walked in with Yue Laogou upside down.

Immediately, he slammed down on the ground and shouted: "Forty sticks! Not less!"

Laogou Yue was thrown so badly that his legs hurt and his arms hurt for a while, but when he tried to struggle again, Wang Shisan and his group had already rushed up viciously.

Two people pressed his arm, and two people waved water and fire sticks to beat him.

After a greeting, he was completely honest.

When Hu Qian used the nightmare prayer power again, he said everything.

It turned out that Yue Laogou also liked Yuhong, and was very dissatisfied with Yue Laosan's long-term occupation of Yuhong, so he secretly poisoned him. After Yue Laosan died, he broke into Hongyu's room at night and threatened Hongyu Just a matter of life.

Hongyu was killed by him if he refused to follow, and was insulted by the corpse after his death.

The case became clear immediately.

I want to come to Yue Laosan to go to Xiaoyu's room after getting drunk that night. He wanted to do something wrong and was stabbed by Hongyu.

Later, when he was going out, he ran into Wu Qingxi and insulted Wu Qingxi. Wu followed him to the alley and stabbed him once with a dagger.

Later, the old bustard got angry and asked someone to beat him up again.

Afterwards, they ran into Boss Yue and three people. Seeing that he was wounded all over his body and dying soon, they hit his back with a sledgehammer and dragged him to the street to blackmail people.

After asking a few people to sign and pledge, Hu Qian shouted: "In the case of the murder of Yue Laosan, Yue Laogou murdered and killed him, and he was sentenced to Qiu Jue; decision.

Wu Qingxi committed murder with a knife, bribed witnesses, and was dismissed as a scholar. He spent three and a half years in prison.

The old bustard and Guigong of Cangchunlou lied to the truth and beat others with eighty sticks. "

When several people heard this, their faces were ashen.

The neighbors who watched the excitement outside the hall clapped their hands and praised Hu Qian for his fairness in the case.

Seeing Wu Qingxi's face of despair, Kong Xueli was about to step forward to comfort him, but Hu Qian waved his hand and asked someone to take him down.

"A gentleman is close to the virtuous and far away from the sycophant. If Boyan feels sorry for him, he might as well visit his wife more."

Kong Xueli said: "Oh, that's the only way to go."

Hu Qian laughed, patted him on the shoulder and left.

Because the group of rats contributed to intelligence, Hu Qian deliberately asked the kitchen to save the leftover steamed buns that could not be eaten by minced meat, and gave them to Baitou and his fellow rats.

In order to avoid Shen Yuzhen and Shen Sanshi's worries, Hu Qian told the story of the case after returning home.

Shen Sanshi inevitably gave another compliment.

After playing for more than ten days, the two were really homesick, so Hu Qian asked Er Zhu to send them back.

When parting, Yang said to Shen Yuzhen: "If there is any happiness, you must inform me as soon as possible."

Shen Yuzhen was full of shame, nodded, and watched the two old people leave.

After resting for a few days, Pei Gong suddenly sent an invitation card, saying that he had won the Juren, and invited Hu Qian to a banquet.

One reason is that the new recruit came to pay homage to the county magistrate, and the other reason is to thank him for saving his life.

Hu Qian didn't want to go at first, but Xu Fengnian said that there have been such rules since ancient times, and it would be inappropriate not to go.

So Hu Qian took a gift and went with Kong Xueli.

When they arrived at Pei's house, the old man in charge of welcoming the guests saw that it was Hu Qian, and immediately shouted: "Master Hu, the county magistrate, is here."

The guests and friends inside and outside the courtyard immediately stood up to greet him. Pei Gong was still talking to the elders of the clan in the house, but when he saw Hu Qian, he hurried out to greet him.

"Your Majesty Hu is here, the Pei family is full of splendor, please take a seat!"

Hu Qian was also polite, and directly sat in the highest and most respected position.

However, before he could say a few words, Wang Shisan suddenly ran over, saying that the imperial decree had arrived, and asked Hu Qian to hurry over to receive the decree.

Hu Qian had no choice but to leave Kong Xueli in his place, and hurried to the county government office.

This time it was not Jin Yiwei who came, but an eunuch.

When I met Hu Qian, I didn't say much, and just recited the holy decree.

It turned out that it was Hu Qian who broke the follow-up to the murder of Governor Ma.

The emperor first said that although the case was solved, but the governor was dead, he made up for it, and later asked Hu Qian to lead the inspection department's office.

As usual, Hu Qian asked the eunuch who passed the decree to rest, but the eunuch said that he was going to the coast for business, so he left in a hurry.

He shook his head, he didn't care about whether he got a reward or not, but what happened to lead the inspection department on behalf of him.

As far as Hu Qian knows, there has never been a county magistrate who can lead the inspection department on his behalf. Although it is only a small yamen to arrest robbers, it has more than 100 soldiers.
