Chapter 191 Who Doesn't Have a Personal ID These Years?
Qingzhou Prefecture.
The half-acre square pond opens up, and the skylight and cloud shadows linger together.
Ask the canal how clear it is? It means there is a source of living water.
Under the leadership of Yue Lin, everyone in Qingzhou City invested in the project of digging canals to divert water.
This makes seemingly impossible tasks proceed at an alarming speed.
Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Yue Lin said with a smile: "As for the rest, even if I leave Qingzhou, the new prefect will not let go of such merit. The people will definitely be able to get canals to irrigate their fields!"
"Coupled with the barrel cart left by me, the people of Qingzhou can finally live a good life."
Lao Wang stood aside and continued: "Sir! Why don't you care about Miss Zhao? I heard that she has left Qingzhou with her family."
The bearded man was also very interested. Even though everyone was digging ditches, he still drank by himself, always staring at Yue Lin's safety with drunken eyes.
"Then Miss Zhao is a wild goose in the sky, far beyond the confinement of a prison."
Yue Lin thought of the miraculous man he fought with Zhao Min and said with a smile: "I also wish her all the best and to be able to fly freely in the sky!"
While the three of them were talking, they saw someone from the government office hurriedly coming to inform them.
"Master Yue! Nanxiong Marquis Zhao Yong wants you to return home as soon as possible!"
"Okay, I'll go over now."
Yue Lin was a little uneasy. With Zhao Yong's virtue, he didn't have any trouble during this period. It was simply not like him.
——
Qingzhou government office.
Facing Jiang Wei, Zhao Yong, the Marquis, behaved very politely.
"Haha! I wonder why Mr. Jiang came here this time?"
Zhao Yong hinted: "If there is anything you need to know, you can ask! I will tell you everything you know, no matter how big or small!"
Jiang Wei rolled his eyes at Zhao Yong. He had inquired about a lot of news in Qingzhou these days.
Including what happened during the disaster relief process, Wu Wenhan and Zhao Yong were clearly influenced by Yue Lin.
Not to mention, the blood fever in Qingzhou City was not what the memorial said. Wu Wenhan made a prompt decision to seal off the city to eliminate rats and eliminate hysteria.
On the contrary, Yue Lin's command was good and the people escaped.
As for Zhao Yong, he is clearly wearing the same pants as Wu Wenhan.
"Thank you so much, Marquis Nanxiong."
Seeing Zhao Yong's expectant gaze, Jiang Wei frowned and said, "I have nothing more to know."
Zhao Yong looked disappointed. How could such a small character have the chance to talk to him on weekdays?
But they knew that the emperor had a group of people who could supervise all officials and were authorized by the emperor.
Facing people like Jiang Wei, even if they are princes or princes, they must be very careful.
Maybe one day I will be sent to prison by these people.
"Marquis Nanxiong has been waiting for a long time! I don't know why I have been called here."
Yue Lin wore short brown trousers and carried a hoe on his shoulders. He arrived belatedly, especially as his shoes were still caked with mud.
"Yue Lin! Is this how you receive people from the imperial court?"
Zhao Yong sneered and said: "If you like digging canals, you might as well become a country man! There must be many scholars who are equivalent to the fifth-rank Hanlin!"
Yue Lin didn't care much and said with a smile: "Xiaguan's legs and feet are just stained with dirt, but his heart is not as good as some people's!"
Seeing Yue Lin's retort, Zhao Yong was about to get angry, but Jiang Gu coughed twice.
"Nanxiong Hou, Yue Hanlin."
Jiang Wei looked at the two of them with burning eyes and said: "I am here to investigate the matter of Wu Wenhan, the prefect of Qingzhou, on the order of the emperor."
"According to what Wu Wenhan's son said, Yue Lin is the murderer."
"However, what a child said cannot be taken seriously. I have been investigating for a long time and only came here to ask today."
Zhao Yong frowned. This person's method of investigating cases was different from that of the Third Division of the Criminal Department.
Yue Lin was familiar with Jiang Gu, who was selfless and would never get along with Zhao Yong and others.
"Master Yue, may I ask if you have any issues with Wu Wenhan?"
"No. I didn't know Magistrate Wu before we came to provide relief."
Yue Lin answered truthfully, but Zhao Yong sneered.
"Yue Hanlin, you and Magistrate Wu have many differences on the issue of disaster relief. How dare you say that there is no holiday?"
Zhao Yong sat lazily on the chair and said with a smile: "Would you like me to bring some witnesses?"
Seeing that Jiang Wei did not refuse, Zhao Yong's personal soldiers and Wu Wenhan's former confidants all came.
"Sir, my master gritted his teeth when he came back to the mansion and mentioned Yue Lin's name. The two of them have always had a feud!"
"That's right! Magistrate Wu wanted to provide disaster relief in a steady stream, and only distributed one-third of the relief grains. But Yue Lin, relying on his position as a capital official, forced Magistrate Wu to distribute all of it!"
"Everyone in Qingzhou City knows about the feud between the two of us! This Yue Lin must have wanted to monopolize the credit, so he attacked my lord!"
Jiang Wei looked unhappy. Did Zhao Yong really treat him like a fool?
The people this guy is looking for are all his and Wu Wenhan's people. How can the testimony be beneficial to Yue Lin?
"The evidence is there, the evidence is as solid as a mountain!"
Nanxiong Marquis Zhao Yong said righteously: "How pitiful Magistrate Wu! Such an official who is respected by the people of Qingzhou died in an internal fight among our own people!"
"What a pity! Yue Lin, you are so incompetent that the imperial court sent you to provide disaster relief, but you want to be the best!"
"If I had a problem with you, would you also send someone to kill me?"
Seeing Zhao Yong's eloquent tongue and his proficiency in telling tales.
Jiang Wei just sneered, not expressing an opinion.
Yue Lin also drank tea calmly and remained unmoved.
There are so many people committing perjury, does he need to care about this?
"Nanxiong Hou, can you prove that I assassinated Magistrate Wu with just these few so-called witnesses?"
Hearing Yue Lin's question, Zhao Yong said bluntly: "That's right! It's just because there are many witnesses! The evidence is there, how can you still quibble?"
Yue Lin smiled and asked: "Does that mean that if I have more witnesses than you, I can prove my innocence?"
Zhao Yong was full of confidence. He had already warned everyone in the government office that if anyone dared to favor Yue Lin, his job would be in jeopardy.
Although everyone in the government office knew that Yue Lin was a good person, they did not dare to throw away his job of supporting the family.
"Okay, that's what I think! I would like to see where you got the witness!"
Jiang Wei was also curious and saw that Yue Lin had walked straight to the entrance of the government office.
Jiang Wei and Zhao Yong followed closely, wondering what kind of medicine Yue Lin was selling.
But I saw countless people spontaneously gathering at the gate of the government office. Some of them had returned from digging canals outside the city, some had left their farm work in the fields and rushed back, and some had arrived with their children in their arms.
Just because they are all worried about Yue Lin, they know better than anyone else who among the officials works for the people and who treats the people as stupid dogs!
"Yue Lin! What do you mean? Where is the witness?"
madness!
Seeing Zhao Yong asking this question, Jiang Wei cursed in his heart.
"Dear fellow villagers, may I ask if I have anything to do with Wu Wenhan?"
"No!"
The answers were uniform.
"May I ask if I have a motive for the murder?"
"No!"
The response was deafening.
Zhao Yong looked unkind, and the corners of Jiang Gu's mouth raised secretly.
Yue Lin then bowed his hands to Marquis Nanxiong and saluted, "I have all the witnesses, please be careful with Marquis Nanxiong!"
