171 Master's conspiracy
This master only came to this county a year ago. When I first came, I was able to help the county magistrate handle a lot of official business, and he also wrote well.
One day, the county magistrate saw that the master wrote well, and seemed to be imitating his own handwriting. The county order was lazy, and then the affairs of this month were handed over to the master. What drafts official documents, handles cases. The county ordered him to do everything. Later, the issuance of documents is also handled by the master.
The corners of Xia Yun's mouth turned up slightly when she heard this, and she glanced at him with disdain. I wanted to say something, but I thought about it or forgot it. I don't have that much effort to talk to him now. It's no surprise that such things are in her officialdom.
"You are so bold, I can report to the emperor and cure you for dereliction of duty. Xiong Wei was very angry when he heard this county order say this, and he did everything he did, which shows that he must be ignoring the people on weekdays.
"Xia Guan knew that he was wrong. The county order was frightened again and again.
The county order also explained a lot of things about the master's coming to the county office.
It turned out that the master didn't know who it was, but after coming to the county office, he controlled the county order, and the official documents had to go through the master's hands. The county order did not dare to disobey the master, because the family of the county order was in the hands of the master.
Xiong Wei and Xia Yun both felt that this master was not an ordinary person. If you want to solve the mystery of the master, where should you start?
"Let's go to Master's room. Xiong Wei glanced at the county order and said, "Get up and lead the way." ”
They hurried to the master's room, which was long gone. There is a ledger on the table in the master's room.
Xiong Wei took a general look, and this ledger recorded how much grain Texas had received this time, and how the money and grain were distributed to the people.
There was also a note under the account.
"Yun'er! As he spoke, he handed the account book to Xia Yun.
He picked up the note, which read: Money and grain, we have already helped you send it to the people. If you give it to these corrupt officials, they will only enrich themselves. There are not many that really reach the hands of the people, and the people will still suffer.
Originally, when you came, we wanted to kill you. But look at you as a person. Look at your chivalrous spirit, and those corrupt officials should not be angry from the same nostrils. We'll take your life first. As for the money and grain in Linqing, as well as the money and grain in other places, we will not lose a penny of what we should give to the people.
"Look. Xia Yun turned to the last page, and there was a note behind it. It reads: There is also evidence of corrupt officials in the warehouse.
Xiong Wei took the note and ran to the warehouse again, the warehouse was empty, what evidence was there.
Xiong looked at the wall that he had knocked down. Suddenly he came to his senses and said, "There must be something hidden in this place." ”
Xiong Wei took a step back, "Knock! knock!" He suddenly noticed that the floor tiles under his feet were loose. He crouched down and carefully removed the tiles.
"Yun'er! Xiong was surprised to find a tunnel underneath.
Xia Yun took a closer look at this tunnel, which was about one and a half meters deep. Xia Yun looked at the wall again, suddenly realized, and said, "Xiong Wei, you were standing on this floor tile at that time. ”
Xiong was startled and thought: This man is very accurate. He expected that I would be standing on this tile when I got the note.
"Yun'er, we've all been fooled. "The last man flattened the wall and left the note on the wall. Then he entered the tunnel, sealed the entrance to the tunnel with a stone, and slipped away from the tunnel. ”
"Someone!" shouted Xiong Wei, then pointing to the place where the wall had fallen, "dig for me." ”
The soldiers began to move. Xiong Wei didn't dare to relax, his eyes staring at their every move.
Even though I hadn't had a good rest for a long time, my eyelids were too heavy to lift. Still, he insisted on standing there.
The soldiers didn't have much effort, and it didn't take long to dig out a box.
Xia Yun opened the box, and inside was a fold.
Xiong Wei opened the fold, and it was written what time, place, and people, and who the county order had done to oppress the people. This is the name of the prefectural order.
"Lord Prefectural, could you please write a few words? and then write down your name. Xiong Wei ordered someone to bring a pen and paper and said.
The county order wrote a few words and wrote his name again.
Xiong Wei looked at the words, and then looked at the recital.
"Haha!" Xiong Wei laughed, looked at the county commander and said, "Lord the county commander, you are a good master." ”
"Come on, arrest this county order. Xiong Wei called someone to arrest the county order, and said solemnly, "Take it to Jinan Mansion and hand it over to the prefect for trial." ”
"What are you arresting me for, what crime did the subordinate commit?"
"Hehe! You'll know when you get to Jinan. ”
It turned out that when the master left, he deliberately left a petition against the county order, and the whole case was evidence of the county order's corruption and perversion of the law. The name of the prefectural order is also written in the notes of the prefectural order.
Xiong Wei and Ouyang Ying learned how to distinguish handwriting, but they didn't expect to use it here.
He secretly admired this master, and wrote it in the handwriting of the county order, which was better than any evidence.
Xiong looked at the warehouse, the wall was falling, and they jumped through the gap to the outside of the wall, stepping over the broken bricks. There are also some shallow car prints on the ground. The car print has been stretched for a long time. This further confirms Xiong's thoughts.
The wind was blowing. From this position again, Xiong looked in the direction where he was sitting on the roof that night.
He ran quickly, jumped up, and sat on the roof again. Looking forward from the direction of the warehouse, there is also a bamboo forest. He didn't give up, and jumped a few more roofs, which was also a sea of bamboo.
He took a deep breath and exclaimed, "This strategy is really good." The thieves had been following him for a long time, knowing that he had a habit of waiting on the rooftops. Sitting on the roof of this warehouse, you can't see the walls and footings of the warehouse.
Xia Yun watched him jump up, and jumped up as well.
Xiong Wei looked at Xia Yun and said, "Yun'er, what do you think is going on with this matter?"
Xia Yun smiled and said, "I checked the tunnel just now, the tunnel is very short, just from the outside to the inside of the warehouse." ”
"As for the wall, it is estimated that they demolished the wall when they carried the grain, and after moving the grain, they rebuilt the wall, and pasted a note, and the people finally came out of the tunnel. The purpose of the note is to stall for time, to divert us, and to transport the food away. ”
"As soon as we found out, we went after it. Judging from the grain in Linqing, they should have arrived in the middle of the night. However, it was also evening when we arrived in Texas. ”
"They just walked in the middle of the night. They knew we would leave at dawn, so they carried the food away in the middle of the night. By the time we transported the grain at dawn, the grain was already clearing. When we went on our way, they drunk the blessed king and them, and then they took advantage of this time to leave. That's a good time. And I know a lot about our itinerary. ”
Xiong Wei sighed deeply and said, "Maybe those little thieves on the road are here to inquire about the news." Yun'er, we were tricked as monkeys. ”
Xiong Wei thought that he had calculated very accurately. I didn't expect the other party to actually control the entire county government. He miscalculated that.
Who are these people, and what are their purposes?
It suddenly occurred to him that he had encountered Jiudao Villa on the road. sighed secretly in his heart: Could it be that the people of Jiudao Mountain Villa did it again.
"They deliberately passed by us, and it seems that they don't want to clash with us head-on. But what now?"
"Whoosh!" Just then, a dart flew in front of Xiong Wei and nailed it to the wall in front of him. There is also a note on the dart. Xiong Wei thought: This is someone telling him the news or other things about money and food.
Xiong pulled out the dart and took down the note. Write on the note: All the money and food have been distributed. If you don't believe it, please go to Jinan Mansion to get the account book.
"Yun'er, I think we're going to go to Jinan soon, this matter is not small!"
Xia Yun still said very calmly: "This is a trap. These people have been holding us by the nose. ”
"I also feel that this is a trap, but these people seem to be thinking about the common people. As long as I do things for the people, it is a trap, and I will drill into it. Xiong Wei said very calmly, "Yun'er, go, go to Jinan immediately." ”
Xiong Wei and Xia Yun jumped down from the house, and the two of them stepped on their horses and ran straight in the direction of Jinan Mansion.
