Li Wei found a piece of paper on the window of the study. To be precise, it was a seal, and it seemed to have been torn off half. Li Wei was slowly walking forward. Yes, it was the seal of the government, and half of the official seal on it was clearly visible.

"Have you reported the case?" Li Weizheng suddenly turned around and asked.

"How could it be!" Lan Chuo said disdainfully: "How could I tell Dingyuan County about my Lan family? I don't know if it was the damn family who leaked the stolen jade Pixiu. The new Magistrate Sun from Dingyuan County brought someone to investigate the case a few days ago. This seal was sealed by him. If the housekeeper hadn't dissuaded, I would have torn it off long ago."

"Did you ask about the same thing as me?" Li Weizheng asked without saying a word.

"Maybe it!" Lan Chuo shook his head, "I didn't take this matter to heart at that time, and I couldn't remember it clearly."

The Dingyuan magistrate came in time and the news was very well informed! Li Wei was just thinking of another missing family member. He smiled with some clarity, "The new Dingyuan magistrate, I want to go and take a look."

After the assassination more than a month ago, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately ordered all the officials from Dingyuan County to be killed. The new magistrate named Sun was originally the chief clerk of Jiangning County. He was promoted to the position of magistrate. The other county magistrates, chief clerks, Dianshi and other officials were also transferred from other places. The new leadership team was less than 20 days old.

Dingyuan County is about ten miles away from the Lan family. In less than half an hour, Li Weizheng quickly entered the city. It was noon, and the county yard was off for lunch. The front of the yamen was empty and there was no one. The magistrate also took a nap.

Of course, Li Weizheng would not be so reckless when he came to the magistrate to find the magistrate. He took out the prince's gold medal. Zhu Biao repeatedly instructed him that if he could not use this gold medal, he would not use it, otherwise something would happen. Li Weizheng also knew this truth well. If he met a powerful prince's opponent, he would arrest you in prison with a fake prince's gold medal. He would torture you for half a day and then send him to the capital to ask the emperor to give him a speech. That would be the end of his destruction of the clan, and the prince Zhu Biao would be implicated.

Without the prince's gold medal, didn't he, Li Weizheng, still have a Jinyiwei waist card? This is his true identity. Jinyiwei's hundred households are equivalent to the Gestapo or KGB in later generations. Moreover, the ivory waist card has two sides. He just needs to shake the words without words to shock local officials from all over the country. It is this Jinyiwei waist card that made him come to the new Magistrate Sun without fear.

Li Wei worked in the grassroots county yard. He knew that noon was the privacy time for the magistrates. He rested in the front hall and had a pretty maid to serve him. His wife in the backyard did not dare to break into the official hall. This was the most pleasant time for the magistrates. Anyone who went to talk about business at this time would definitely be disappointed, and no yamen runner would really go to help you pass the message.

Li Wei was walking around the county government and confirmed that Magistrate Sun was in the county government government. He was not in a hurry. It was lunch time, and several small taverns near the county government government were quite lively. He was hungry, so he led his horse to a larger tavern.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the tavern, he suddenly heard someone calling him, "Fifth Brother!" and his voice was quite familiar. Li Wei was stunned. He saw someone running towards him from afar. He looked at the costumes and seemed to be a minor official in the county. When he ran closer, he recognized him. The person coming was actually Zhang Erhu, his subordinate in Linhuai County.

Li Wei was ecstatic when he met an old friend in a foreign land. He threw down the reins and went up to hug Zhang Erhu tightly. Both of them laughed. Zhang Erhu said excitedly: "Fifth brother, I didn't expect that we will meet again. I thought you were in the capital and it would be difficult to meet again in the future!"

Li Wei was smiling and punching him, "Aren't you going to open a brothel? Why are you still working as a yamen runner?"

Seeing that Zhang Erhu was wearing a public uniform that was not a yamen runner, he smiled and said, "Have you been promoted?"

"This matter is a long story. Brother Wu hasn't had lunch yet, so I'll invite you to drink." Zhang Erhu pulled Li Wei forward and said to the respectful waiter: "Go and empty your West Flower Hall. I want to invite my friends to dinner."

The waiter looked embarrassed, "Mr. Zhang, there is someone there."

"Fart!" Zhang Erhu glared, "Don't you want to get stuck in the tavern?"

"Yes! Yes!" The waiter ran back and discussed with the shopkeeper. Li Wei was a little surprised. He thought Zhang Erhu was on a business trip to Dingyuan County, but judging from this posture, it didn't look like it!

"Erhu, have you come to Dingyuan County to work as a job?"

Zhang Erhu smiled and did not answer. At this time, the guests from the West Flower Hall had finished their meal. The shopkeeper of the tavern was cleaning up in a hurry and invited Zhang Erhu into the room. The two of them went into the room to sit down. The wine and food were served one after another. Zhang Erhu poured him a glass of wine, then picked up the glass and said, "Fifth Brother, although we have only been separated for more than a month, I feel as if many years have passed. Come on! Brothers, I wish you a glass of wine first."

Li Weizheng felt this feeling, so he picked up the wine glass and drank it all with him, put it down, and Li Weizheng asked with a smile: "You can say this now, when will you come to Dingyuan County?"

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhang Erhu lowered his voice and said, "It was because of the last assassination that all the officials in Dingyuan County were killed. The magistrate of Xin County could not come for a while, so the superior appointed Qin Dianshi to temporarily maintain public order here. It was then that I came with Qin Dianshi. At that time, the officials of the inspectors from above came to inspect public order. I seized the opportunity and stuffed the fifty taels of gold. Later, the new magistrate took office and Qin Dianshi returned to Linhuai County, so I stayed to be the Dianshi of Dingyuan County."

Li Weizheng laughed, "You guy is indeed good at seizing opportunities."

Zhang Erhu shook his head and sighed, "Compared with the fifth brother's chance, what am I? Actually, I still learned from the fifth brother. I have only been in this life for decades. How many opportunities do I have? If I catch it, I will turn over. If I can't catch it, I will make a living under my belt for the rest of my life!"

Li Wei nodded. It seemed that the assassination had indeed changed the fate of many people. He drank a glass of wine and asked again: "How is Sanbao's wife and children? Qin Dianshi is okay!"

"When it comes to the fifth brother, he doesn't believe it. Sanbao's wife remarried Jia Laoliu. The couple opened a tavern near the Linhuai County Government. The brothers went to support each other every day, and their business was quite prosperous. As for Qin Dianshi, he also posted it and was promoted to the chief clerk of Linhuai County."

Speaking of this, Zhang Erhu asked with interest: "How is the fifth brother doing with the prince in the capital?"

Li Wei was flashing the Jinyiwei waist tag on his waist, and smiled slightly and said, "Hundred Houses."

Zhang Erhu's eyes suddenly widened. Be good, the fifth brother actually became a hundred households, and he was also an Jinyiwei. His power was extraordinary, and his eyes were full of envy.

Li Weizheng smiled, picked up a chopstick of vegetables, and asked vaguely: "Where did your magistrate be an official?"

Although Li Wei was asking casually, Zhang Erhu still understood a little. He drank the wine in his hand and slowly said, "Fifth Brother, are you here to investigate Magistrate Sun?"

Li Weizheng poured another glass of wine and smiled bitterly, "To be honest, I encountered a troublesome thing this time, which is really difficult to solve. If Erhu is in a dilemma, just pretend I didn't ask."

Zhang Erhu drank another glass of wine and sneered, "Fifth Brother is underestimating me. Don't say that this Sun's surname is stumbling around me. Even if I am a humble official, what if I lose it for my fifth brother? If the fifth brother is proud in the future, will he forget me?"

When Li Wei heard that he could figure it out, he couldn't help but nodded secretly and smiled, "What do you mean is that you are not getting along well with Magistrate Sun?"

"Of course not good. He is a Qianglong. I was originally from Dingyuan County and I am also a local tyrant. When this bastard took office, he brought several yamen runners. One of them became my deputy, which was the position where my fifth brother used to sit. He was in a dilemma with me everywhere. I couldn't make money. This historical fact is so cowardly!"

Li Wei was holding up the wine glass and laughing, "This is it! If you help me with the fifth brother this time, I will still be your backer in the future, so that Magistrate Sun will not dare to force you in the future, what if?"

Zhang Erhu was overjoyed. He suddenly remembered something and said to Li Weizheng: "Fifth brother, you should still remember the Chizhou Prefecture wanted the Chizhou Flying Rat. He stole the Chizhou Prefecture's official treasury. At that time, the prefect of Chizhou was the county magistrate Sun. He was dismissed from office and later became related and demoted to Jiangning County Chief Clerk. He was promoted to Dingyuan County Magistrate after more than a year. What a fucking coincidence!"

Li Weizheng became more interested and asked quickly: "Then he has any background relationship, do you know?"

Zhang Erhu looked at both sides and immediately lowered his voice: "I once got his master drunk. His master said that County Magistrate Sun actually had something to do with some prince in Beijing."

Li Wei was holding him down, "This is not a place to talk, let's find a safe place."

As night was gradually approaching, Li Wei lived in the largest Fengming Inn in Dingyuan County. He booked a single courtyard. After almost the time was about, he took out a piece of incense from the package, lit it, and inserted it outside the window. Zhang Erhu was surprised to see it. Li Weizheng only smiled and did not explain anything. About halfway through the incense, a black shadow suddenly flashed through the window and flashed into the room like a ghost. The person came was Li Weizheng's guard Yang Ning. He knelt down on one knee and bowed: "I'll follow the order!"

"Maid Yang, I have a clue. Now I want to ask you to work hard. My brother will guide you and catch someone for me."
