Talk about the world of mortals in detail

Today, the county officials received their salaries. Yi Shuyuan arrived very early, after all, he didn't sleep at all.

Yi Shuyuan was in a significantly better mood when he came out of the county government office. It could be seen that the county government still took good care of him and received a total salary of four to two hundred yuan.

If Yi Shuyuan had just come to this world, he might not have any idea about this money, but now he would shout in his heart, "It's a huge sum of money!"

There is no upper limit on what kind of luxury goods you can buy, and if you only use it to meet basic needs, it is not an exaggeration to say that this amount is enough to buy food for an ordinary family for a year.

Of course, if you really calculate the actual purchasing power, it may be the level of the general salary in the previous life, but compared with the level of other people here, it is definitely not bad.

Today was Xiu Mu again, so of course Yi Shuyuan went straight to Tongxin Building to satisfy his appetite first.

But a yamen servant who ran over in a hurry disrupted Yi Shuyuan's plan. Before he could reach the accounting room, the sound of shouting could already be heard.

"Mr. Yi, Mr. Yi! The county magistrate wants you to go to the official office quickly!"

The Yamen servant was obviously in a hurry, and he was slightly out of breath when he ran to Yi Shuyuan. Yi Shuyuan's first reaction was that Lin Xiu wanted to see the county annals compiled by him, and he couldn't help but feel helpless.

Why do the leaders here also like to check the work progress during the holidays?

But the Yamen servant's next words let Yi Shuyuan know that he had gone astray.

"Mr. Yi, someone is coming from Yuezhou City. It's about Jia Yuntong's case. The county magistrate wants you to come over quickly!"

Yi Shuyuan frowned slightly and knew the priority of the matter. He said "go" and walked quickly towards the county magistrate's office. Naturally, the yamen officer hurriedly caught up to lead the way for Yi Shuyuan.

While still on the way, Yi Shuyuan asked for some details and learned that the Yuezhou Zhizhou had sent many people over to learn the details of the case from Lin Xiu face to face, and Yi Shuyuan was the key figure in the development of the case. , naturally cannot be absent.

——

After all, the county magistrate's official office is also within the scope of the county government. In addition, Yi Shuyuan and the government officials were in a hurry, so they arrived in a short time.

It was a separate courtyard. When the two of them arrived at the door, they had already seen at least a dozen official officials in unfamiliar attire. They were all dressed in dark green attire and wearing knitted buns. Most of them held official swords in their hands. , but there are also people who wear chains around their waists or carry special sticks on their backs.

It seems that he heard the footsteps of the two people. Many people looked outside the door. Yi Shuyuan ignored those people and walked straight towards the hall where guests were received. He could see that in addition to a few county government officials, there were also people inside. Several people, the leader of whom was wearing a winged hat, should be an official from Yuezhou.

When Yi Shuyuan arrived at the door, he had already saluted Lin Xiu first.

"Lord County Lord, Yi is here!"

Seeing Yi Shuyuan coming, Lin Xiu subconsciously stood up from his seat.

"Mr. Yi, come in quickly. Come on, let me introduce you all. This is Mr. Yi. Mr. Yi, this is Master Li, the general magistrate of Yuezhou. These are all officials from Yuezhou City. Send someone to the door!"

When Yi Shuyuan entered the door, all eyes were turned to him, and the yamen servant who followed him step by step became a transparent person. He was standing aside carefully at this moment, not even daring to say anything.

In contrast, Yi Shuyuan looked generous and bowed to several high-ranking officials in Yuezhou.

"Yi Shuyuan, a civil servant in Yuanjiang County, has met several adults!"

Yuezhou Tongpan and several police officers were looking Yi Shuyuan up and down, and the former asked with a slight cold snort.

"Humph, are you the Mr. Yi who can see ghosts?"

Yi Shuyuan frowned and raised his head. His tone was not very polite. He glanced at the case table with his peripheral vision. The case file of that day was spread out on it. It had obviously been read several times.

However, Yi Shuyuan was neither impatient nor impatient, and after answering in a respectful manner, he turned to Lin Xiu again.

"It's me, Mr. Lin. I wonder why you recruited me here?"

Yi Shuyuan asked knowingly, but he still wanted to do it, so that Lin Xiu, the county chief, could take back the initiative.

But before Lin Xiu could speak, Mr. Li from Yuezhou had already spoken first.

"According to the file, it was you who spoke on behalf of the female ghost He Xin in this case? Is this true?"

Yi Shuyuan complained in his heart about the great official authority, but nodded on his face.

"It's true."

"Then let that female ghost come up and talk to you again?"

This was obviously too much, so Wu Minggao on the other side braved the situation and opened his mouth to make a rescue.

"Master Tongpan, it is difficult for ghosts to enter the county government office. It is daytime, so it is difficult for ghosts to appear, and ghosts do not come when you are called."

Yi Shuyuan also spoke.

"What Mr. Wu said is true, but even if Miss He is not here, Jia Yuntong's confession cannot be false when it is placed here. Some things can be known to be true or false as long as they are investigated."

"Huh, it's clearly written in the file that Jia Yuntong was tortured before he confessed. Is there any guarantee that he wasn't beaten into submission?"

"Master Tong Sen is too arbitrary. This person resisted arrest and injured others, which cost our county government a lot of good soldiers. It is only natural that he should be taken to the government office and receive some punishment!"

The person who spoke was the county captain of Yuanjiang County. His shoulder injury had not healed yet, and he had a cloth rope hanging on one arm. His words were quite convincing.

But someone next to the general judge sneered in a low voice: "A good player?"

This remark was a pun, which made the county captain feel angry. He looked at the person who said it fiercely. Just as he was about to speak, the county magistrate of Yuanjiang County, whom Yi Shuyuan was not familiar with, immediately came out to speak.

"Uh, okay, okay, everyone is working for the court, don't hurt the harmony!"

The master on the side also quickly agreed.

"That's right, we are discussing a case, don't let it hurt the peace!"

Lin Xiu took a deep breath.

"The Ministry of Punishment will give an explanation for this case. Your Excellency, you don't need to worry too much."

Yuezhou General Magistrate frowned and glanced at everyone in Yuanjiang County.

"Lin Xiu, if you don't know who the general magistrate of Wuzhou is, then you should know that the former Wuzhou governor is the current minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. How can you convince the superiors? Just based on this file of a ghost redressing his injustice?"

If it were other officials in the capital, Lin Xiu might not know about it, but the Ministry of Civil Affairs was responsible for the evaluation of officials in various places, and although the minister was the chief official, he only had an overview of the overall situation. The only ones who were really responsible for the work and could speak well were the ministers. Of course Lin Xiu didn't. Maybe it's not clear.

As for what went wrong? Tong Yan didn't say it clearly, but even Yi Shuyuan could figure it out.

Indeed, for the people in the Yuanjiang County Yamen, this case was a personal experience and they naturally believed it. However, for others, especially the officials above, this statement was somewhat absurd.

Seeing that the county magistrate was silent, Yi Shuyuan spoke.

"If Lord Tongpan doesn't believe it, you can ask the officers who were present that night. You can also go to the dungeon and ask Jia Yuntong in person. I believe this person will not recant his confession."

"Humph, I will ask even if you don't need to tell me!"

As he said that, Yuezhou Tongjian sighed and looked at the county magistrate who had an unhappy expression on his side.

"Lin Xiu, the struggle between the government and the opposition is the most dangerous. I am also afraid that you will accidentally get involved in it, because this matter will be used as a weapon. I have also read your evaluations over the years. Although you have no achievements, you have not made any big mistakes. There are some Don't blame me for not warning you, no matter what the outcome of this case is, it will be difficult for you to be alone."

As if being aroused by these words, Lin Xiu felt angry in his heart, and the aura around his body moved slightly, making Yi Shuyuan feel a little brighter on him, but he did not say anything too exciting when he opened his mouth.

"I know what I'm doing and what I'm doing is within my bounds. Thank you for your concern, Lord Tongpan!"

Yuezhou Tongpan shook his head and said nothing more.

"Come on, take me to the dungeon!"

——

The group of people arrived at the dungeon quickly, but the people from Yuezhou City took over the defense of the dungeon almost at the same time, each occupying some key posts in the dungeon. The original government officials and guards neither dared to leave their posts without permission, nor did they dare to leave their posts without permission. Scolding these people felt a little awkward on the side.

Lin Xiu followed Yuezhou Tongpan and asked with a frown.

"Sir, why is this?"

Yuezhou Tongjian glanced at him.

"With the remaining government officials in Yuanjiang County, how can we talk about defense? I will take care of it for the time being."

The first level of officialdom is overwhelming. If the tone was harsh just now, it seems that there are some bad intentions now. The officials in Yuanjiang County cannot get angry in person and maintain the surface calm, so they can only admit it temporarily.

In the dungeon, the cell leader, Mr. Liu, still had the same self-centered demeanor as he did in the prison. He was like a diligent pawn walking in front to clear the way for these big shots.

"My lords, we are right in front, Jia Yuntong is at the very back!"

The several officials who followed Yuezhou Tongjian were all attracted by the people huddled in another cell, and some couldn't help but scream.

"Gibbon Sun Shiwan?" "Yes!"

"You didn't admit your mistake?" "There is no mistake. This guy has several lives on his back, but he was caught and locked up here unexpectedly!"

"He actually protects Jia Yuntong?" "Hmph, let's put the old and new grudges to rest this time, and let him have a taste of our methods!"

Several people walked by while discussing, but the master of martial arts in the prison said nothing and his face looked very gloomy.

Soon, everyone reached the end of the dungeon. Jia Yuntong was still huddled in that corner. He Xin, who heard the noise, had already turned to the door first. Seeing so many people, especially these evil warriors, he subconsciously backed away slightly. .

But when he saw Yi Shuyuan and Lin Xiu in the crowd, He Xin immediately showed joy and saluted to them.

"He Xin, a citizen girl, has met Mr. Lin and Mr. Yi. Mr. Yi, Mr. Lin can't hear you. Tell him that I saluted!"

Yi Shuyuan nodded slightly, but had no intention of speaking. He Xin did not dare to urge him, so he just watched from the side.

"Jia Yuntong, the masters of Yuezhou and the county master are here to see you, come out quickly!"

"Don't come to me, don't come to me, I'm just a businessman."

Jia Yuntong responded tremblingly.

"Jia Yuntong, come out!"

"Don't look for me. Don't look for me."

The cell leader yelled this several times in response, making the people in Yuezhou frown and murmur.

"If this person is a lunatic, his testimony will not count."

Several people in the Yuanjiang County Government suddenly felt a little nervous. They didn't want Jia Yuntong to be really crazy, so Lin Xiu immediately ordered.

"Open the cell door and pull him out!"

"It's my lord!"

The cell leader immediately opened the iron door, hesitated and glanced inside the prison, whispered a few words "Don't blame me", and then he and another officer pulled Jia Yuntong out of the withered grass where he was hiding.

"No, don't look for me."

Jia Yuntong struggled fiercely, thinking that the ghost had appeared, but when he was forced to turn to the door, he saw Yi Shuyuan for the first time, and he suddenly seemed to have seen a savior.

Not sure where he got the strength from, or perhaps because of his huge advantage in weight, Jia Yuntong suddenly broke away from the cell boss and the prison guard, and lay down at the door, kowtowing to them.

"Dong dong dong"

"Mr. Yi, please help me, please help me, let the ghost stop pestering me, I can't stand it anymore, I've already attracted them all!"

"Dong dong dong"

The official of Yueyue Prefecture stretched out his hand to hold Jia Yuntong's forehead firmly, and then looked at Yi Shuyuan aside. Not only him, but others were also looking at Yi Shuyuan.

Lin Xiu's heart moved and he suddenly asked.

"Mr. Yi, is Miss He Xin here?"

Everyone's heart skipped a beat, even if they didn't believe it before, combined with Jia Yuntong's madness and the current environment, it still had some impact.

Yi Shuyuan's face was calm and he didn't hide anything. The spiritual energy in his body moved with his thoughts, and a strand of it drifted towards the ghost, and then nodded.

"Miss He Xin is behind Jia Yuntong!"

Yi Shuyuan's original intention was to help He Xin solidify her ghost body so that she could make some noise for everyone to feel. However, he did not expect that with his actions, a strange wind blew up in the prison, blowing away everyone's clothes. The horns flickered.

Huh. Huh.

A blurry white figure appeared vaguely in everyone's eyes.

"hiss"

For a moment, everyone felt a cold air rushing straight to the sky, and even the warriors had goosebumps.

There really is a ghost!

"ah--"

Jia Yuntong screamed and crawled towards the door with all his strength, but was immediately held down by several people outside. The cell boss and the government officer also ran out at this moment.
