Working Emperor of the Northern and Southern Dynasties
Chapter 279 Helping the County Lord to investigate the case in the lobby (2)
The person coming was none other than Ma Liang. After leaving the fishing village, he immediately returned to Yuanmiao Temple to deliver a message. A group of people in the audience packed up and headed straight for Ziling County. Since there were old women in the team, many had difficulty moving, so
Ma Liang arrived first.
When County Magistrate Chu saw the visitor, he had a beard on his face, a broad shoulders and a round waist, and he walked like a tiger. He did not dare to look down on him at the moment, so he also came forward to greet him. After Ma Liang revealed his identity, Magistrate Chu said with a smile on his face: "Oh, eldest lady,
It would be best if Captain Ma can help with this matter."
Although there are three squads of yamen and police officers in Ziling County, none of them can compare with a fierce man like Ma Liang.
Chen Chang shook his head secretly at the side. Finding Lou Qingyi would not be possible with brute force. Judging from the whole process of the gangsters kidnapping her, it always felt a little strange.
The plan was sophisticated. It was indeed very sophisticated. They could have started directly by kidnapping Lou Qingyi from the fishing village of He Laozhang and his family, but they went to a lot of trouble and resorted to two rounds of tactics. Moreover, the strategy of stealing beams and replacing pillars in the carriage was also very complicated.
wonderful.
But this plan cannot be said to be flawless. Mr. He still leaked information.
In order to cover up the kidnapping, they could have wiped out Mr. He and his family, but the gangsters did not do this, which made Chen Chang feel puzzled.
Many doubts were constantly swirling in Chen Chang's mind. He obviously felt that the answer was ready to come out, but he always lost his train of thought at the most critical moment.
Wang Huan saw Chen Chang frowning and stepped forward to ask.
Chen Chang said: "Looking at the current situation, maybe we should meet the three thugs and the woman in private."
Wang Huan also felt that this was necessary, but after hearing this, County Magistrate Chu grinned and said: "Oh, Miss, it's not that this county doesn't want to cooperate with you, but it's just unreasonable?"
This was originally a public trial in court, so what's going on with this private interrogation?
Chen sang: "Your Excellency, this is a matter of great importance to human lives. Even the emperor is very concerned about it. What's the point of worrying about these regulations at this time?"
Magistrate Chu actually listened to the word "emperor". No matter how great this law is, can it be greater than the emperor?
Anyway, the emperor’s niece is here, so what kind of leisure time can I, old Chu, have?
Magistrate Chu immediately agreed, and the group came to the prison.
This prison is where prisoners are kept. Even though the three thugs and the woman are all persons awaiting investigation, except that they are not shackled, their treatment is no different from those of the prisoners.
The cell boss came up to him a long time ago and opened the cell door with a smile. The cell was dark and humid, and exuded a strong smell of sweat and musty, which made Chen Chang cover his nose. Looking at Wang Huan, she seemed to be at ease.
, showing no feeling of disgust at all.
The three thugs were held in a cell, but the woman was held alone.
When the three scoundrels saw the county magistrate and the others coming, they immediately scratched the railings as thick as duck eggs and screamed.
On the way here, Chen Chang had already made an explanation to Magistrate Chu. He stepped forward and said, "Stop making noises. This county said it wanted to restore your sister's innocence, so I mean what I say. Come here this time,
There are a few questions I would like to check again."
When the three ruffians heard this, they were immediately overjoyed and said, "Sir, just ask!"
"You are just going to pick up someone, why are you bringing weapons?"
"Back to the lord, it's not all the bandits who are causing the trouble. Haven't you heard that a large number of bandits appeared in the Yangjiadu area a few days ago. I heard that they slaughtered several villages. The little people are thinking about the distance of this transaction.
If you encounter a gangster blocking your way, how can you protect yourself if you don't take advantage of it?"
Magistrate Chu nodded, this is the reason.
He asked again: "Then let me ask you, on the way, the employer rushed another carriage. How do you explain it?"
The handlebar eyes rolled a few times and said: "Back to the boss, the employer's accent is not a local accent. Why did he drive another carriage and what he did in the middle? I don't know the reason. I don't know why.
The three of them just use money to do things. As for what the employer thinks about it, I don’t dare to ask, and I can’t ask.”
"Then according to your point of view, you just don't know the answer."
Handlebar Style continued to complain: "My Lord Qingtian, it's hard for you to stop me. How can you tell us something about your employer?"
Magistrate Chu couldn't ask any more questions and looked at Chen Chang and Wang Huan for help.
Chen Chang nodded slightly, took a step forward, and asked through the railing: "Handle-style, let me ask you. You keep saying that this matter was done by the employer alone and has nothing to do with you, right?"
Handlebar looked at Chen Chang with vigilant eyes. After a period of contact, he had understood that although the county magistrate was respected here, the identities of these two young people were not simple. The county magistrate
He even had to look at the faces of these two people from time to time. Especially Mr. Chen, who seemed to be taking the lead in this matter.
He kept this in mind and secretly reminded himself to be careful what he said and not to fall for this Taoer named Chen.
Handlebar type said: "I'm not going to hide it from you, but it's like this!"
Chen Chang nodded and then asked: "In that case, how much did your employer pay you?"
"The young one just said it in the lobby, it's three dollars, which is already a lot of money for us, so we took the risk and took this deal."
"Oh, then in our opinion, you are really unjust. Even if there was really a problem with the carriage before, it was still the employer's problem, right?"
The three scoundrels said in unison: "Young man is wise, that is exactly what happened. We were kept in the dark."
Wang Huan interjected: 'In that case, can you still recall the appearance of the employer?"
The handlebar head shook like a rattle: "It was dark when we met, and the man had his face covered, so it was impossible to see his face clearly."
Wang Huan scolded: "Since you know that this person is hiding his head and tail, why do you take the risk to accept this deal?"
The handlebar style called Qu Dao: "This young gentleman, that's not the case. The three of us brothers are just trying to make ends meet. There are old people in the family and young people in the family. We have been without rice for many days, and the little people are also hungry."
I just want to make some money to support my family, is this wrong?"
Chen Chang took over the conversation and said: "Of course there is nothing wrong with this. Since the employer wants to deceive you, he must make some pretense, otherwise it will be a big disadvantage if he is recognized by you elsewhere in the future."

Handlebar Shi nodded repeatedly: "Who says it's not the case? Speaking of which, we are also the sufferers! He promised to give us three ounces of money when the matter is completed, but now he has only paid us one ounce. I'm afraid the remaining two ounces will be lost." He said.
After a while, he sighed.
