    ?

    Wang Liuzhi is a government official in the county, so he is naturally familiar with handling such matters.  He first yelled: "Killer!"

    After waiting until the villagers were almost assembled, he called out the Dibao Wang Dabang, and asked him to take care of the nine households near his home that belonged to the same class as Li Tietou, and protect the scene.  He went to the county government to report to the official.

    Today is not the day to release the report, the yamen does not hear the case, but this time it was the grain chief who was killed, and the whole family was killed in the extermination case, which must be reported immediately.

    When Wang Liuzhi came to the county government office, the county magistrate Zhang Hulu¡ªthis is the nickname given to him by the villagers¡ªwas in the sixth house of the county government office together with the clerks to calculate the number of applicants for this year's autumn grain.  In the past few years, there have been a lot of people fleeing famine in each village, and the original household registration status has long been out of line with the actual situation. Zhang Hulu asked the food chiefs to re-count the household registration status of each village to prepare for the need for grain collection. At this time, they are transcribing the statistics  new list.

    It is reasonable to say that Zhang Hulu is not such a serious person, but he is not a Jinshi with two rankings, he is just a candidate, and it is difficult to get a good ranking in the annual evaluation.  As long as you don¡¯t make mistakes in principle, you must be well-received during the evaluation. People from other backgrounds will not get a high-level evaluation even if they do well. However, the Ming Dynasty¡¯s evaluation of officials focused on land tax.  If the collection is not good, and those who fail to complete the tasks, not only will they be demoted and fined, but they will also be compensated for the unfinished money and food, and even if they are transferred to other places, they will still have to pay.

    Wang Liuzhi is a government official, so he naturally knows what the county master is busy with now.  Zhang Hulu usually keeps his eyes open except when collecting money, and is basically half asleep and half awake at other times. Only when the court collects grain, he keeps his eyes open all day long, and even keeps one eye open at night.  Eye.

    So, he went directly to the household, knocked on the door lightly, and said, "Is the magistrate in there, I have something important to report."

    "Let's talk about it later, the magistrate is busy!" Wang Liuzhi recognized the voice of Gao Sheng, Zhang Hulu's personal attendant.

    "It's a case of exterminating the family, and the one who died was a grain chief." Wang Liuzhi had no choice but to say.

    "What, grain chief? Dead? Has the grain been harvested?" Zhang Hulu asked articulately rarely.

    "Thisnot yet, why don't you go check it out?"

    "It's really not the time to die¡ªyou continue¡ªwho is outside?"

    "Little Wang Fuzhuang" Wang Fuzhuang was Wang Liuzhi's nickname.

    "Oh, Wang Fuzhuang, you go to Chuan Zuo and gather in front of the hall with the third class of yamen servants. The county will be there in a while."

    "Yes, my lord."

    Wang Liuzhi went to the office to greet the yamen servant on duty, and asked him to inform the other yamen servants that he would go to the market on the west side of the county town to find Wuzuo Wang Xiaowu.

    Wang Xiaowu is a pig butcher, and his son inherited his father's business. His family has butchered pigs and made ware from generation to generation, which is an ancestral handicraft.  Butcher work is equivalent to today's forensic doctor, but in those days it was a lowly job, and many of them were done by butchers.

    When Wang Xiaowu saw Wang Liuzhi approaching from a distance in the butcher shop, he knew that there might be another homicide case.

    Before Wang Liuzhi could get there, he took a rag, wiped the oil on his hands, turned around and went into the shop, took out a small suitcase, held it in his hand, explained to the clerk on the cabinet, and went  He walked around the counter and walked towards Wang Liuzhi.

    As soon as the two met, Wang Xiaowu moved the flesh on his face¡ªit was equivalent to a smile¡ªand said, "Brother Liuzhi, whose family died again?"

    Wang Liuzhi is also very familiar with him, and he usually buys and half buys his meat from him. Of course, if someone else wants to make a living by butchering pigs, Wang Liuzhi will also help him to make the other party unable to do so.

    "Li Tietou, the whole family is dead." Wang Liuzhi still had feelings for Li Tietou, and he didn't have nothing to do with it as usual, and even his tone was a little gloating, and this time his tone was also a little sad.

    After all, two people teamed up to seize the land of the villagers. Who knows if Li Tietou died because of it?  cold.

    When the two arrived at the county government lobby, the servants had already arrived, but Zhang Hulu hadn't come out yet.

    When the yamen servants saw Wang Liuzhi, they all rushed up to say hello to him, and his popularity was not bad among the three classes of yamen servants.

    The county magistrate didn't come, so everyone asked Wang Liuzhi about the situation.

    Wang Liu pointed out: "Li Tietou is dead, and the whole family was killed"

    Among the yamen servants, some knew him, and some were with him.After making friends, they couldn't help being surprised, because they all knew that Li Tietou had good martial arts skills, and he was killed, and his whole family was killed, so they couldn't help being horrified.

    ?Everyone began to speculate about the murderer. Some people knew what Li Tietou had done in normal times, so they speculated whether he might have been killed by those villagers who had robbed him of the land.

    Someone asked Wang Liuzhi, is there anyone in the village who is good at martial arts and can beat Li Tietou?

    Wang Liuzhi shook his head.

    "Could it be someone from outside who committed the crime?" A yamen servant guessed.  "Who knows if he made enemies when he didn't come to Jiangping Village?"

    "Has anyone from outside been here recently?" A yamen servant asked.

    However, no one answered. Everyone is busy collecting food these days, so it is inevitable that they neglect the daily security supervision.

    Zhang Hulu finally came out, followed by his follower Gao Sheng.

    The bearers were already waiting at the door carrying the sedan chair. Gao Sheng stepped forward to lift the curtain of the sedan chair, and Zhang Hulu lowered his head and sat in.

    ? The station shift clerk beat the gong twice, cleared the way with the gong, and walked to Jiangping Village in the countryside surrounded by sedan chairs with the fast class yamen servants.

    Along the way, we didn't arrive at Jiangping Village until noon.

    Jiangping Village is a small village, and there are no famous people. There are no gentry and wealthy households in the village. In the past, Zhang Hulu seldom went to the countryside, and Li Tietou was basically responsible for receiving the yamen secretary office who went to the countryside. Now that he died,  Wang Liuzhi had no choice but to arrange Zhang Hulu to his home.

    Wang Liuzhi's beggar master passed away long ago, and his parents also died. There is only one wife, Mrs. Cui, in the family-the two have no children.  My brother came from another village to join him and help him with housework.

    At this time, three fat chickens were unavoidably slaughtered and boiled in a pot. The family happened to have fish caught in the river the day before yesterday, and they were cooked and served on the table.

    In fact, Zhang Hulu didn't have any good food in the county government, because this place was originally a barren county government, otherwise he would not have been sent to take up the post, and he had been robbed by the two ranking Jinshi, so he  Eating the local chicken and fresh fish from the farmhouse feels extremely delicious, and I think that I should go to the countryside often if I have the opportunity in the future.

    The yamen servants also set up three tables in the courtyard. Wang Liuzhi and his wife Cui could not help but feel pain in their hearts when they watched them eat and drink.  This meal ate up half a year's income.

    Finally, Zhang Hulu and the servants had enough to eat and drink, and rushed to Li Tietou's house.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
