Chapter 70

"Sir, who are you going to do?" Du Chuan was stunned for a moment when he saw Li Tiedan swearing, and suddenly felt that he was much more kind. He walked up to hold his shoulder and said, "I, Old Du, are the first one!"

"Mr. Mo!"

Although Du Chuan only heard the name of Mr. Mo today, when he saw Li Tiedan's angry look, he knew that Mr. Mo must be not a good thing, so he picked up the knife and walked out.

"Sir, please wait here. Let's catch you, Master Mo, who is the one who is raised by this bitch."

When Wang Caimei heard this, she was so scared that her neck shrank. She hurriedly closed the door and stopped him and said, "Captain Du! You speak less, be careful that there are ears in the walls."

Du Chuan snorted coldly, "I didn't do anything wrong, I'm afraid he will be a bird's feather."

"Captain Du, that's not what he said. Shao Shi, the man of Mr. Mo, is extremely insidious and powerful. It's better to be careful."

"Mr. Wang, your life is afraid of death. I, Lao Du, are not afraid, let me open it!"

"You-." As the saying goes, the scholar met a soldier and couldn't explain the truth. Poor, Wang Caimei, a Jinshi, was blushed and thick-necked by Du Chuan's words. He could only say like a scoundrel: "I just can't afford it! What can you do to me?"

Li Tiedan felt much better when he saw Du Chuan picking up Wang Caimei, and hurriedly shouted: "Mr. Wang is an eighth-rank official in the court. How can you let you be here be so arrogant? You won't go out to wait."

Du Chuan knew that he had done a little too much, so he hurriedly punched Wang Caimei, opened the door, walked out reluctantly, closed the door gently, and stood outside.

Li Tiedan hurriedly walked over and helped Wang Caimei sit down, "Mr. Wang, Captain Du is this artillery problem, but he has no bad intentions, don't be angry."

Wang Caimei shook her head, "I am not angry at the captain, I am angry at myself, why can't I be like him, and what I say? Maybe, maybe my pride has really been smoothed out."

Li Tiedan wanted to say something to persuade him, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to pick up the coarse sand teapot on the table, pour him a bowl of water, and he took a sip of water.

"Sir, you just said that you want to do this Young Master Mo, but you are serious?"

Li Tiedan nodded, "I just don't know if there is any conclusive evidence besides these open affairs that can put Master Mo into prison?"

Wang Caimei raised her head, her eyes that were deeply trapped in, and looked up and down at Li Tiedan, "Sir, if there is any evidence, it depends on whether you can get it."

"How do you say this?"

"To be honest, since the officials discovered that this young master might be the mastermind behind the killing of Lord Wu and the people of thousands of Beiliu County, they all wanted to send him to prison with their own hands. I had secretly investigated, but he discovered it. Not only did he almost die, but he was also confined by County Chief Zhang for half a year."

He paused, "But I still didn't give up and started to secretly follow him. Hard work pays off. I found that he had close contact with several women in the county, especially a widow named Li. If the official guessed correctly, she would definitely know more than me."

Li Tiedan touched his chin and said, "With the widow named Li, is Mr. Zhang talking about Li Jinhua?"

“That’s right!”

...

After leaving Minglun Hall, Li Tiedan did not dare to stop at all and rushed to the county government. Li Jinhua was no one else, but Wang Laoer's god sister, a beautiful woman who lived in widowhood for three years.

On the way back, he kept thinking about how to let this beautiful widow tell the truth? He grabbed her into the county government and asked directly, would he find someone suitable to touch her?

In the end, he chose the second plan, and the person who was suitable was Wang Laoer.

With this idea, after Li Tiedan entered the county government office, he did not enter the magistrate's house, but went straight to the intermediate court. Seeing Wang Laoer sitting alone in front of the desk playing chess, he asked.

"Wang Laoer, does the left hand win this time, or does the right hand win?"

Wang Laoer raised his head and looked bored and decadent on his thin and black face. "Sir, you are back. I'm going to tell you that everyone has their own things to do, but the villain is just here, and it's boring to win with any hand."

"There is something interesting here in this county, I'm afraid you won't want to do it."

When Wang Laoer heard this, his face immediately became energetic, "Sir, if you have anything to do, you always give orders, whether it is going to the mountain of swords or the sea of ​​fire, the villain will be willing to refuse."

Li Tiedan thought about it and said, "This county doesn't want you to go to the mountain of swords or to go to the sea of ​​fire, so I just want to ask you for someone."

"who?"

"Li Jinhua!"

A hint of hesitation flashed in Wang Laoer's eyes, and he asked in surprise: "She—, she is just a widowed woman for many years. What did she do?"

Seeing Wang Laoer like that, Li Tiedan knew that he had some misunderstandings and hurriedly said, "This county just wants to know if she is closely related to Master Mo?"

Wang Laoer's face felt relaxed, "Hi! Sir, it turns out you are asking about this. As the saying goes, there are many right and wrong in front of the widow's door. It's not just this young master Mo? Even officials like County Chief Zhang go to fight Qiufeng every few days."

Li Tiedan sighed in his heart. It must be not that easy for the person who can bring this old, one young, one master to the Luoshang to the person who can get the truth from behind the Luoshang. After thinking for a while, he asked again and again.

"Then have you heard her say about Master Mo?"

"That doesn't seem to be there."

"Not a word?"

Wang Laoer smiled and said, "Sir, I'll tell you all the time. The reason why I asked her to be a sister is that after my godmother was killed by a bandit, she helped me a lot."

"Second, hehe, sir, you know too. People like me, before meeting you, are like mud in the ditch. If you don't have a sweet mouth and can't even have enough food for your stomach, you just scream casually. In fact, there is no deep feelings in terms of trueness."

When Li Tiedan heard this, she was inevitably a little disappointed and had to ask: "Who is the best relationship with her?"

"Old Mrs. Wei." Wang Laoer said, and an excitement flashed in his eyes, "But sir, if you want to know something, I can help you ask our sister Yi."

"Okay! But this matter must be kept confidential." Li Tiedan said, asking Wang Lao Er to come over and tell him what he was asking. He nodded after hearing this, and ran out excitedly.

Only then did Li Tiedan leave the house and come straight to the study room of the magistrate's house. Seeing that there were several thick stacks of booklets on the copywriting in the room, Master Chai was sitting next to him and was carefully reviewing it.

He was not easy to disturb him for a moment, and was about to withdraw, but when Master Chai shouted excitedly, "I've been looking for it, I've finally found it."

Li Tiedan hurriedly walked over and saw a passage written in traditional Chinese calligraphy on the book: In the 13th year of Jiajing, a maid from the Mo family died of illness. The master Mo Shaoshi felt sorry for his life experience and wanted to get rid of his humble family, but the magistrate Peng Fu did not allow it.

"Sir!" Master Chai looked up and suddenly found Li Tiedan was there. He was startled, "You, when were you standing here?"

"I've just come." Li Tiedan replied calmly, and then brought the topic to the point, "Apart from this maid Qinhua, has anyone else died in Shaoshi Mo's family?"
