Chapter 75 Sir, are you going to investigate such a major case?
Chen Yuming had murderous intent in Ye Qing's eyes, and his gentle expression darkened.
He picked up the teapot without asking and poured himself tea.
Such a calm reaction.
The murderous intent in Chen Yuming's eyes became even stronger.
I feel that Ye Qing is no longer pretending and is ready to show off his cards.
Zi yo yo!
Ye Qing was no longer like a horned peony, but was seriously enjoying the tea, carefully feeling the tea in his mouth.
After a few breaths, he swallowed the tea in his mouth and said:
"Wuyi Xingyan Tea has mellow tea soup, refreshing tea aroma, sweet and smooth tea taste, good tea."
"If you don't have wine before you die, it would be nice to have good tea."
Chen Yuming, who knew that Ye Qing was from a humble background, frowned and his eyes showed surprise.
What followed was unabashed anger.
His face was full of anger and he whispered:
"Ye Qing, what other tricks do you want to play?"
Bang!
Ye Qing put down the tea cup, looked at the blue sky with a serious face and said to the magistrate:
"I, Ye Qing, am from a humble background, but I have an open mind. I recognize the person I kill."
"But I have no accomplice, so I don't agree with what the prefect just said."
"That day at Wang Datou's home, I was searching and found a masked man climbing over the wall."
"In order to survive, I revealed all of my identity."
"The man made a condition and asked me to kill Wang Datou."
"In order to protect myself, I committed the murder at midnight the night before."
"Master Magistrate, if you believe it, believe it. If you don't believe it, I, Ye Qing, have said what I have said, and it is enough to be worthy of heaven and earth."
After saying that, Ye Qing stood up.
On the beige futon, the grass juice soaked in the back left a crescent blue mark.
Zhang Xiuran promised to ensure the safety of Amei and Zhang Weng and Po Zhang.
He also left five Cabbage beads for his sister, and was cared for by Mr. Zai, an old Chinese medicine practitioner.
Even if he dies now, he has nothing to worry about.
Just thinking that Amei might be heartbroken made Ye Qing feel a little uncomfortable.
However, what I gained was relief and hope.
Maybe, after liberation, we can return to our original world.
Ye Qing stood up straight, looked at Chen Yuming's stunned face, cupped his hands and bowed:
"Thank you to the magistrate for taking care of me these days. I broke the law and killed someone to pay for my life. Ye Qing was at your mercy."
The powerful words made Chen Yuming's expression change constantly.
Half an hour.
Chen Yuming remained silent, and Ye Qing also kept his bowed posture.
Tread!
The sound of footsteps came.
Chen Chuyue, who was elegant and dressed in moon-white brocade silk, quickly came to Chen Yuming's side and spoke in detail.
Chen Yuming's expression softened a lot. He waved his hand and Chen Chuyue turned around and left. When passing by Ye Qing, the prefect's legitimate son looked at him curiously.
Wow!
Chen Yuming poured himself a cup of tea, picked up the tea cup and said:
"I can spare you the death penalty, but I want you to do something."
"Once it's done, not only can you live, but you can also continue to wear this black suit."
"Moreover, I guarantee that you will reach the ninth level within one year."
Ye Qing:???
Ye Qing, who was full of doubts, raised his head and looked at Chen Yuming who was calm and composed.
These days.
Zhang Xiuran spared his life and was even more willing to cultivate him. A few days ago, he even said that he would be waiting for him to do something important that sounded very important.
The masked man spared his life and asked him to kill Wang Datou. It was estimated that he had the information to kill Wang Datou and would let him do things in the future.
Now, the magistrate of Huaiyang knew that he had killed someone, but still wanted to spare his life, and asked him to do something, and even promoted him after he accomplished it?
Ever since the original post was leaked that night.
The gears of his destiny seemed to have embarked on a road paved with blood and thorns.
There is no free lunch in the world.
What you want to get, you need to pay accordingly.
Ye Qing didn't have the capital to negotiate terms.
These people are willing to use him for nothing more than his head.
Or his head is tied to his waistband.
Or, the head was thrown somewhere.
After coming to this world, he knew this truth and said without hesitation:
"Prefect, please tell me."
Chen Yuming was surprised for a moment by his decisive agreement, but then he thought about everything about Ye Qing.
If Ye Qing hesitated and asked him what was going on, it would not be Ye Qing.
Chen Yuming drank the tea, put down the tea cup and said:
"Go find He Wen and he will tell you."
As soon as these words came out.
Ye Qing was stunned.
It turned out that when Chen Yuming launched an attack, he would not kill him at all. What he just did was just a show.
It can also be said to be a test where he is tested and beaten with a stick.
Ye Qing sighed in his heart: "They are all old foxes."
at the same time.
He understood more and more how despicable human life was in this society, especially for a lowly person like him who had no power.
Chen Yuming saw Ye Qing stunned and realized that Ye Qing had guessed it, a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, sir!" Ye Qing saluted again and left quickly.
After Ye Qing left the courtyard.
Chen Yuming said: "Have a cup of tea before leaving?"
"Forget it about tea. I'm afraid that you, sir, will cheat me out of my money again."
A resentful voice sounded from the house.
Zhang Xiuran walked out casually, holding a landscape silver fan.
Chen Yuming, who was laughing dumbly, shook his head, picked up a clean teacup, poured a cup of tea for Zhang Xiuran, and then said:
"After the river embankment is built, you will be ranked first on the merit monument, which will be good for you in the future."
Zhang Xiuran raised his eyebrows, then quickly came to the couch, sat down with a smile, casually cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord Magistrate."
As he said that, he picked up the tea cup and drank slowly, making squeaking sounds from his mouth.
"I would like to thank you, the prefect."
Chen Yuming was filled with emotion and looked towards the place where Ye Qing disappeared.
He continued: "This prefect already knows about your relationship with him."
"He has pride. If you take advantage of him like this, how will you get along with him in the future?"
Zhang Xiuran, who did not expect Chen Yuming to ask this question, put down the tea cup and gestured to him to add more tea for him.
He opened the Shanshui Silver Fan in his hand, blowing up the warm spring breeze, blowing his long hair on his temples, and said with an arrogant smile:
"When he can stand in front of me, he will only be grateful to me."
Chen Yuming, who recognized it very much, nodded slightly and said:
"Indeed, he is not worthy to carry your Mr. Zhang's shoes now."
The next moment, Chen Yuming stared at the arrogant young master in front of him and said in a deep voice:
"It's time for you to go. That incident will involve you. Even if you have the ability to protect yourself, we, Huaiyang City, will be in trouble because of you."
"I don't want the prefect to distract you from the aftermath because you, the younger generation, are fighting."
Zhang Xiuran rolled his eyes and said casually:
"Master Magistrate, I am an upright and law-abiding young master. It is wrong of you to chase people away."
The next moment, he saw Chen Yuming clenching his fists and said quickly:
"I am willing to donate another fifty thousand taels of silver to the government."
Chen Yuming's eyes were still unkind.
Zhang Xiuran hurriedly sat upright and said with a sincere face:
"This young master will give you a pair of bright light armor."
Mingguang armor?
Chen Yuming's heart was beating wildly, but his expression remained calm and calm, as if he asked indifferently:
"General system or military system? Military system is something that the magistrate doesn't like."
Zhang Xiuran, who curled his lips slightly, stood up and said:
"Don't forget it."
"Wait!"
Chen Yuming, who hurriedly opened his mouth to stay, looked at Zhang Xiuran, who had no dignity and a face full of disgust, and smiled softly with a kind smile.
"The military system is also fine. When will it be delivered?"
Zhang Xiuran, with a look of contempt on his face, sat down again and asked quietly:
"Are you still going to chase me away?"
"My dear nephew, have some tea!"
As the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes.
Chen Yuming smiled and poured tea for Zhang Xiuran, and at the same time curiously said:
"Mingguang Armor is strictly controlled, how did you get it?"
"It was smuggled from the Beiguang Kingdom. I don't want to join the army. I keep it as a decoration at home. If it weren't for my brother Chu Yue who was about to join the army, I wouldn't have taken it out."
After Zhang Xiuran said it without reservation.
Chen Yuming said sincerely:
"Good nephew, you are not Chu Yue's biological brother, so it's alright. I have given you all my armor, but Chu Yue still lacks some weapons. You have great powers, so you should also get them."
Zhang Xiuran looked at the Huaiyang magistrate who said, "I don't want Bilian." His eyes widened and his mouth opened wide.
Before he could complain, Chen Yuming smiled warmly and said:
"By the way, Chu Yue is good at using two swords. You don't need to give him a gift. Just give him two hundred-refined embroidered spring knives."
"You lion is so open-mouthed!!!"
A roar came from Zhang Xiuran's mouth.
Chen Yuming, who subconsciously leaned back, clasped his ears contemptuously and said:
"If two are not enough, one will do. Why are you yelling?"
Crunch!
Zhang Xiuran clenched his fists tightly and looked at the shameless Chen Yuming with gritted teeth.
After all, it was the prefect Qingtian who felt a little guilty and muttered:
"If I don't give it, I won't give it. It's like killing you."
Zhang Xiuran squeezed out from between his teeth and said:
"After all, the Mingguang Armor is the armor of the Imperial Guard of Beiguang Kingdom. If you can get it, our gods will not care and we will applaud you."
"You asked me to use the Hundred Refiners Embroidery Spring inspired by our gods. It is the sword of the Jinyi Guards. It is not a gift from the emperor and no one else is allowed to wear it."
"There are only a few governors in the entire Shenqi? How many handfuls of Hundred Refining Embroidered Spring have been given out by Shenqi since the founding of the country?"
"Not to mention that I can't get it, but even if I get it, if you want to die, don't bring Chu Yue down."
Chen Yuming, who knew this, touched his nose in embarrassment and quickly changed the topic:
"What about that? Do you think the burden we have placed on Ye Qing is too heavy?"
"I am worried that he will not be able to bear it and may even take the wrong path."
Zhang Xiuran, who was serious for a moment, said in a deep voice:
"If jade is not polished, it will not become a useful tool. He has talent, a great talent."
"Before he entered the government office, he had not had a good night's sleep for several years in order to make money and protect his family."
"But after entering the government office, he began to relax!"
"Only by putting pressure on him can he grow quickly."
"Otherwise, when Xie Daru returns, the honors brought to him by his poetry and calligraphy will make him less willing to be ordinary."
There was a pause.
Zhang Xiuran looked at Chen Yuming with twinkling eyes and said:
"Didn't you just give up on writing and choose the path of becoming an official, which is the most difficult but also has the greatest opportunity, and that's how you got to where you are today, didn't you?"
Chen Yuming nodded, shook his head and sighed:
"It's different. He comes from a humble background after all."
…
In another courtyard.
Matthew and He Wen, who were drinking tea and chatting, saw Ye Qing walking in with a normal expression on his face, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Ye Qing bowed towards Matthew and said:
"Your Majesty, the Magistrate has issued an order for his subordinates to be at your disposal."
Ha ha ha ha!
Hearty laughter came from Matthew's mouth, and he pointed to He Wen and said:
"Okay, okay, Ye Qing, sit down and talk."
He Wen, with bright eyes, stood up with a smile and invited Ye Qing to sit down. He took out a file from his arms and said:
"Shu Li, please take care of me from now on."
"In addition, please read this dossier here carefully and keep it in mind."
Ye Qing smiled gently and said:
"Look out for each other and help each other."
After taking the file and sitting down, Ye Qing looked at the words written on the file. His hands and feet instantly became cold, and he looked at Matthew in horror.
"Well, sir, are you going to investigate a major case like this next?"
