Chapter 1419
After the two returned to the yamen, they went through the evidence they had found and determined the direction of their next efforts. They were about to get up and go back to their respective houses when suddenly a man dressed as a housekeeper walked in.

"Butler Yu is a rare guest, please come inside." Master Shan hurriedly got up when he saw him, and greeted him warmly.

"No, the magistrate asked me to come here, and I asked the two of you to go over the house." Butler Yu glanced at the room, smiled and shook his head and replied.

"Oh, then wait a moment." Master Shan replied in a daze.

Then he pointed to the pillar and said, "By the way, this is Fang Youliang."

"Hello, Mr. Fang." Butler Yu hurriedly turned his head and saluted with a smile.

"Butler Yu is too polite, please get up quickly." Zhu Zi hurriedly stepped forward to help him and said with a smile.

"Let's go now." Master Shan turned around and said after locking up the evidence.

Afterwards, the three of them walked out. On the way, Master Shan asked, "I wonder if Sir Zhifu asked us to come here?"

"Maybe it has something to do with today's homicide." Butler Yu turned around and replied.

"Thank you very much." After Master Shan finished speaking, he stuffed a piece of broken silver of more than one tael into his hand.

After Zhuzi heard this, he was thoughtful, and for a moment couldn't figure out what the magistrate meant.

Because there was Steward Yu leading the way, the two went straight into the magistrate's back office.

After entering the main room, I saw a heroic man in his early thirties sitting at the top, chatting with a woman in her forties.

Sitting next to it were a few juniors, chatting and laughing.

"I've seen (Lord Lu) the magistrate." The two hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"You two are welcome, sit down quickly." Mr. Lu hurriedly got up and pointed to the two empty chairs on the upper right and said with a smile.

Zhu Zi and Mr. Shan looked at each other, feeling confused for a while, if it was for the case, shouldn't they go to the study to talk, but the host sat back honestly after making such an arrangement.

"Presumably this is Second Young Master Bai." The prefect turned to Zhuzi and asked.

"The next official is Bai Yuzhu, sir, just call me Zhuzi." Zhuzi was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect his identity to be exposed, so he hurriedly got up and replied.

Then he said to Mr. Shan: "I concealed something because I didn't understand the situation in Huzhou at the time. Please forgive me, Mr. Shan."

"In our line of business, you should be more cautious. You don't have to feel ashamed." Master Shan replied with a dry smile.

Although the words are beautiful, but I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, but I can't blame the other party entirely. Whoever made himself such a big mistake in the Zheng family's case makes people doubt and can't blame others.

"My lord, Mr. Qiao, and Mr. Wang have arrived." At this time, Butler Yu came in again to salute.

"Come in right away." The magistrate hurriedly got up to take a few steps.

"I've met you, my lord." Qiao Bin and Wang lord hurriedly saluted after entering.

"You're welcome, sit down." The prefect pointed to the two empty chairs on the left.

Then he pointed to Mr. Wang and said to Zhuzi: "This is our warden here. If you need it, you can go to him directly."

Then he said to Mr. Wang: "This is Bai Yuzhu, an official from the Ministry of Punishment from the capital. During the recent period, please cooperate with him a lot.

"My lord, thank you." Zhu Zi cupped his hands.

"Master Bai, you're being polite. I'm just a jailer, please give me your advice." Lord Wang hurriedly stood up and replied nervously.

"Come on, let's go down." The woman stood up and said.

"Alright, let's talk later." Master Lu nodded and replied.

Then the woman led a group of juniors out, one of the young ladies turned her head and peeked at the pillar reluctantly, then followed the woman out with a blushing face.
