Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 35 The Inspector's Arrival
Three days later.

The "heroic deeds" of Xu Zun's rioting in Huaxianglou have spread throughout the streets and alleys of Xinye County.

People inside and outside the square were discussing this matter, and the heat even surpassed the unsolved case of the iron coffin.

In the vegetable market.

"What kind of obscene thing is this?" The vegetable seller and the mantou seller chewed their tongues, "It's still a county captain! I really don't understand why Master Shen would like such a thing?"

"That's right," said the aunt who sold steamed buns, chewing on sugar cane, "I heard people say that County Captain Xu dates different women every day, and has already slept with all the married women in our entire Xinye County!"

"Really? Why didn't I know?" The grocery shopping lady fell into deep thought.

"I mean young and beautiful, young and beautiful!" Aunt Mantou hastily corrected, "I didn't mention you..."

A certain big family.

"Really, really," the maids were spreading gossip, "That confused county captain finally called Chunniang's name! It's that You Dalang's daughter-in-law!"

"Oh," echoed another, "what kind of husband and wife is this? How shameless! No wonder You Dalang killed his wife..."

"Oh, speaking of murder, it's really a crime!" The little maid said with certainty, "I heard people say that Chunniang is pregnant with twins, it's a crime..."

Huaxiang Building.

"Hey!" the old lady complained holding the broken vase, "This damn County Captain Xu, the money he gave is not enough to pay for my vase! If I had known, I shouldn't have let him in that day, my son-in-law killed people, We have to make a rule in the future, no one who is a son-in-law is allowed to enter!"

"Poor, pitiful..." The beauty with smoky makeup shook her head behind the screen and sighed, "What kind of beating will our Lord Xu have to do when he returns? It's so pitiful, I really want to see..."

Yamen.

"Hey, did you hear that?" Unlike the public, the policemen are secretly spreading positive energy, "Mr. If you do that, you just don’t have the courage!”

"Come on, you only saw the dog eating meat, but you didn't see the dog being beaten!" said the other, "After Master Xu finished biting, he was so beaten by Huo Anu that he was completely disfigured!
"I even heard..." he said in a low voice, "Xu Xianwei was dragged back to the Shen Mansion, and they turned him into a eunuch! Shen Gong will let him enter the palace to serve in the future..."

"Huh?" Someone grinned in fright, "Isn't it so exaggerated?"

"It's over, it's all over now!" said the previous policeman, "Master Xu is over, and our case is also over! The case is so difficult to investigate, and Master Xu is not here, how can we solve it?"

"Cough!" said another, "if you think he's there, the case will be solved? Isn't it all the same in the end?"

Several people were chatting happily, but suddenly saw a familiar figure coming out of the inner hall, it was exactly what they were discussing - Xu Zun!
"what!?"

Seeing Xu Zun, several people acted like hell, one of them almost knelt down!

"Master Xu?"

All the arresters rushed over, and they were all surprised to see that Xu Zun was intact except for some bruises on his face.

"Are you back? Are you... all right?"

One of them even walked around behind Xu Zun to observe carefully, but still found nothing abnormal.

But seeing Xu Zun's red face, he was more energetic than before.

In the eyes of all the arresters, Xu Zun must be on crutches, with bandages wrapped around his head and arms, and his face changed beyond recognition, in order to be worthy of their hot discussion just now.

"It's okay, it's okay," Xu Zun smiled slightly, "We're all a family, it's okay after I explain it clearly! I said it all, I went to Huaxianglou that day just to investigate the case, hehe..."

With Xu Zun's smile, all the arresters were even more confused. They all looked at Xu Zun's lower body, wondering if the rumor of entering the palace was true?

"My lord," one of them asked with concern, "Are you sure that you can just explain? Did you not get kicked out or get divorced?"

"Hehe," Xu Zun laughed again, and asked back, "You all heard that I bit Huo Wangwang?"

"En!" Everyone nodded vigorously.

"Then do you really want me to bite you too?" Xu Zun suddenly changed his face, making the arrester shudder.

Several people finally realized that they shouldn't gossip, so they quickly shut up.

At the same moment, I saw the county magistrate Qiu Yongnian, the county magistrate Luo Wanwan, the master Yao Jin, and a group of yamen servants all came out of the inner hall and hurried towards the yamen gate!

When passing by Xu Zun, Qiu Yongnian patted Xu Zun's shoulder lightly, Xu Zun didn't speak, but walked out behind them.

"You guys, hurry up!" Behind him, Zhao Yu, the head catcher, waved and shouted to the catchers, "Hurry up and call everyone over here, Lord Inspector is here!"

"what?"

The arresters were startled, although they had been mentally prepared, they still couldn't help but get nervous.

"Zhao Butou," someone in the crowd reported to Zhao Yu, "Bai Xiaolong and Lu Qing have gone somewhere, they weren't there just now!"

"It's okay," Zhao Yu waved his hand, "I'll let them go to Qijiawu! Leave them alone, hurry up and line up!"

"Yes!"

After all the arresters walked out of the gate of the yamen and lined up, they saw flags flying in the distance, horseshoes bursting, and a group of people came from afar!
As the team arrived at the gate of the yamen, County Magistrate Qiu quickly led the crowd to one of the carriages, bowed and greeted the driver.

Three people dressed in official clothes got off the carriage one after another, one was relatively young, one was almost middle-aged, and the other was slightly old.

Xu Zun only knew one person, and the youngest one was Taimin, the governor of Shangyuan County. He had come to Xinye County to inspect the work before.

Judging by the official robes, the slightly elderly person should be Li Yan, Li Wensheng, the governor of Tangzhou!
Li Yan was also a Jinshi Hanlin. He once served as a Beijing official in the Ministry of Officials, and was later promoted to Tangzhou Governor.

The sheriff is equivalent to the mayor, and the governor is equivalent to a senior official. Xu Zun is a little curious, who is that middle-aged man?

Judging by the official uniform on this person, his rank should be lower than that of Li Yan, but when he got out of the car, this person was the last one to get off, and Li Yan even personally guided him, with a very personal attitude.

Oh……

From this point of view, this middle-aged man should have a lot of background!

"Xinye County Magistrate Qiu Yongnian welcomes all your lords!" Since he was a student of the Son of Heaven, Qiu Yongnian only bowed and did not bow down.

The Daxuan Dynasty respected metaphysics and did not have strict requirements on etiquette. Therefore, Luo Xiancheng and others, like Qiu Yongnian, all bowed to show their respect.

"Well," Inspector Li Yan nodded slightly, pointing to the middle-aged man first and introduced, "Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Chen Taiji, the censor of the Ministry of Criminal Cases!

"The iron coffin case is of great importance. I have reported this case to the Holy Majesty, and the Holy Majesty has appointed Mr. Chen to supervise the case with full authority. You must cooperate with Mr. Chen unconditionally, and you must not slack off in the slightest. Do you understand?"

"Yes!" Qiu Yongnian and others took the order, and then saluted Chen Taiji in unison, "I have met Mr. Chen!"

"Everyone please stand up, please stand up!" Chen Taiji helped Qiu Yongnian up symbolically, and said, "Magistrate Qiu, don't be polite, Mr. Inspector is also serious. Chen is grateful to God to supervise the handling of this case, and he must do his best. , Live up to the holy hope.

"Everyone," he said to the crowd, "Although His Majesty has not issued an official decree, he has already sent an oral order to Chen!
"It can be seen from this that the Holy Majesty attaches great importance to the iron coffin case, and hopes that all colleagues will cooperate with Chen, let us find out the truth together, and find out those villains with malicious intentions!"

"Yes!" Qiu Yongnian hurriedly expressed his heart, "We will do our best to live up to the holy hope!"

"Hahaha, that's good, that's good!" Chen Taiji nodded in satisfaction.

"Lord Chen," Inspector Li Yan pointed at the yamen, "It's a tiring journey, let's go in and discuss it in detail!"

"well!"

While talking, Chen Taiji followed Li Yan to the yamen, but when he passed by Xu Zun, he stopped suddenly.

"Huh?" He looked Xu Zun up and down, and asked, "Your name is Xu Zun?"
