Chapter 4 004: Suspicious Qingshui County Magistrate

Tieshou couldn't help but his pupils contracted suddenly: "You mean, there is something wrong with Qingshui county magistrate?"

The conversation between the two has been using voice transmission to encrypt the conversation, and Tie Shou finally understood why Zhui Ming suddenly wanted to use voice transmission to communicate with him.

Zhui Ming glanced at the Qingshui county magistrate not far away, and slowly said: "Whether there is a problem with the Qingshui county magistrate, we are not sure yet, but I am sure that there is a problem with the reception at the Qingshui county post station."

Holding his chest with one iron hand and pinching the short beard on his chin with the other, he frowned in thought.

First of all, judging from the scene, it is obvious that this was a unilateral massacre without resistance. From this, it can be seen that the officers and soldiers betting on silver must have been drugged by Chinese and Mongolian sweat, which is why this happened.

So the assumption that the officers and soldiers were drugged by Mongolian Khan was established, and then who gave the Mongolian Khan Drug?

The officers and soldiers who pledged silver had lunch at the post station in Qingshui County, that is to say, there must have been no problem before, and the problem must have come from Qingshui County.The officers and soldiers traveled only ten miles to here after having lunch at the post station in Qingshui County, and they would definitely not eat other people's food on the way.

Then, the conclusion is just like the inference of Zhui Ming, the problem must be the hospitality of the post station in Qingshui County.

The reception at the post station was personally arranged by Qingshui County Magistrate, so Qingshui County Magistrate has serious doubts no matter what.

Of course, it is also possible that other staff at the post station secretly planned the robbery of the official bank.But the possibility of this is very low. The person who dared to plan to rob 10 taels of official silver would definitely not be a member of the county government and post station.

"Tell Luo Tutou to go to the Qingshui County post station to investigate! In addition, arrange some people to secretly investigate the Qingshui County Magistrate and a few other small officials to see if they have any unusual actions."

Tie Shou called a bronze head catcher and led more than a dozen catchers on horseback to Qingshui county government office.

Afterwards, Tieshou walked towards Qingshui county magistrate.

Seeing Tie Shou approaching, Qingshui county magistrate hurriedly cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know if your lord has found any clues?"

Tie Shou looked at him with both eyes, and asked back: "Who does the county magistrate think is so bold as to rob the government's disaster relief official money?"

The county magistrate thought slightly: "I think it must be the bandits near Qinghu Ridge. If so, the official bank would not have been robbed here."

Tie Shou looked at the surrounding mountains and forests, and asked, "Is there a bandit in Qinghu Ridge?"

The county magistrate hurriedly nodded, and explained: "Qinghuling, deep forests and dangerous mountains, with a radius of hundreds of miles, there are often bandits haunting and robbing merchants and pedestrians. We have also sent dozens of arresters to encircle and suppress them, but there are always no Come back with success."

Tie Shou sneered: "Does the county magistrate think that such a small thief can kill more than 100 officers and soldiers led by General Li?"

"This" the county magistrate was speechless for a while to refute.

"However, if General Li and these more than 100 sergeants are poisoned with Mongolian sweat medicine, these bandits can succeed." Tie Shou's eyes were like two cold stars staring at the county magistrate's eyes.

The county magistrate was flustered by the sharp eyes of the iron hands, and he didn't dare to look directly, and lowered his head, "What your lord said is very true, if General Li and others are poisoned by the bandits' sweat medicine, they will indeed be caught by the bandits. .”

Tie Shou pretended to be ignorant and said, "Master County Magistrate, but why did General Li drink Mongolian sweat medicine from bandits?"

"This... the lower officials can't figure it out either." The county magistrate raised his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Tie Shou reached out and patted the county magistrate on the shoulder, and said with a slight smile, "Why is the county magistrate so nervous?"

The county magistrate cupped his hands and tremblingly said: "The official bank was robbed in the lower official's territory. The lower official is deeply disturbed and fears that the court will punish him."

"Your magistrate, don't worry too much. Although the official bank is lost in Qingshui County, how can the Qingshui county government be quick enough to deal with such criminals and thieves. Well, there is no business for the magistrate here. You can gone back."

The county magistrate hurriedly bowed his hands in thanks, and took the dozen or so yamen servants back to the county yamen.

"How, is there a problem with the county magistrate of Qingshui?" Zhui Ming saw the county magistrate leading people away, so he couldn't help coming over to ask Tie Shou.

Tie Shou shook his head: "I tested him just now, and my reaction was a little nervous, but this is normal. If he is calm and composed, there is something wrong. A person who dared to kill more than 100 officers and soldiers and robbed 10 taels of disaster relief money is You won't be scared and nervous by my few words. Also, I put my palm on his shoulder just now, and didn't detect any internal strength in him. It seems that this county magistrate is not from the green forest."

"So, do you think there is nothing wrong with the county magistrate?"

"It's hard to say now, wait for a few days to secretly track him down."

Just as he was speaking, Shen Yunshan led a team of arresters back on horseback, and came before Tie Shou and Zhui Ming.

"Second Master and Third Master, my subordinate led people forward and chased along the official road for more than ten miles, and found that the ten carriages were abandoned by the official road, and all the official money was gone."

Tie Shou frowned thickly: "Could it be that the robbers in the mountain moved all the money to the mountain?"

"Go, let's have a look."

The two galloped forward, looking at the ruts left on the official road all the way, after traveling for a mile or two, they stopped suddenly.

"No." Zhui Ming jumped off the horse and looked at the car on the ground.

"The ruts are too shallow?" Tie Shou looked at the ruts on the ground and suddenly understood.

Zhui Ming nodded: "Ten carriages are loaded with 10 taels of silver, and each carriage weighs 1 taels. The ruts must be a bit deep, but there are only two very shallow ruts along the way here."

Tie Shou's eyes flickered: "This shows that the carriage is just a cover to lure us. In fact, the 10 taels of official silver have not been transported forward at all."

Zhuiming pondered: "Then where was the 10 taels of silver transported?"

Tie Shou looked in the direction of the Qingshui County Government: "Perhaps, it was transported back to Qingshui County. It may also be hidden in a hidden place near here."

At this moment, Ling Yun and the other police officers have searched the surrounding area, but have not found any valuable clues.

At this time, a piece of information appeared in front of Ling Yun.

[Among the more than 100 officers and soldiers who were killed, only one lieutenant's face was smashed. What do you think is the reason? 】

[A: The robbers killed at will, there is no particular reason]

【B: Deliberately, the purpose is to prevent others from recognizing the true face of the deceased】

Ling Yun was taken aback, yes!Why did the more than 100 officers and soldiers who were killed were killed by swords or smashed to death, but why did this lieutenant die by smashing his face?

Could it be that this is really to prevent others from recognizing the true face of the deceased?
It should be, otherwise the system wouldn't suddenly pop up this multiple choice question.

Now choose B decisively.

[Congratulations to the host for answering the question correctly, and a reward for one year's internal strength. 】

Ling Yun's inner strength immediately increased by another year.
