To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

In the following days, two people followed Yang Xu all the time, and even the prefect found it difficult to intervene.

After a busy day, Yang Xu agreed and asked everyone to go back and rest for a night and continue the investigation tomorrow morning. However, as soon as they left the county government office, the prefect was invited to the Wang family.

Wang Daozhi smiled and clapped his hands twice, and five or six beautiful maids came over.

"Sir, you have been tired all day. Let me entertain you."

Two maids massaged my shoulders, two maids massaged my legs, and one fed me snacks and tea. Wang Daozhi only left one maid for himself. The prefect enjoyed it and let go of his tiredness. "How embarrassing."

"It is my honor to honor you." Wang Daozhi changed the subject, "Some people are ignorant and don't know how to respect you. They want to take credit for your achievements with their lowly status. Dream on!"

Hearing this, the prefect opened his eyes and sneered.

"This Jiang Jing is not an ordinary person. If you want to kill him, you have to do it secretly. Don't always talk nonsense in front of Lord Yang. Also, finish this case quickly and send Lord Yang away honestly. Don't even think about stealing the credit. Even if I get scolded, I will be satisfied."

He waved his hand and asked the maid to leave. He was no longer in the mood to enjoy himself.

A hint of cruelty flashed in Wang Daozhi's eyes. Killing without anyone noticing, he understood. "Sir, what if we can't find the murderer?"

"Just find a scapegoat." The prefect straightened his clothes and ordered, "Don't do anything weird. Wait until Lord Yang leaves."

Wang Daozhi nodded, "Yes, I understand."

-

They drove the two men out on the grounds that the government office had no house. In fact, the magistrate of Yinyang County looked down on the status of fugitives and was unwilling to let Jiang Jing tarnish the county government office.

In the inn.

Jiang Jing closed the door and hugged Jiusu into his arms, "A Su, I always thought I was dreaming. You came here, and your home and shop are all arranged? No, I'm still worried, you should go back to Suming County."

"Since you are here, you should investigate the case first before going back." Jiusu said.

Footsteps were heard in the corridor.

The two looked at each other, Jiang Jing blew out the candle, Jiusu made a "shape" of the bedding and opened a window. They hid behind the screen and waited for the man to come, hoping that all this was just wishful thinking.

Jiusu lowered his eyes, watching the bracelet on his hand turn purple, and whispered, "There is smoke."

"Hold your breath and concentrate." Jiang Jing protected her behind him and covered her mouth and nose with his sleeves.

A man in night clothes opened the door cautiously. Seeing the wide open window, he froze for a moment, hesitating whether to go in. He tentatively asked, "Sir, do you need hot water? The fire will stop soon."

No one responded.

He stepped in confidently, holding the dagger, not daring to breathe, walked to the bedside, aimed at the bulging quilt, and stabbed it fiercely, "Empty? Damn it..."

Bang! Jiusu knocked the man in black unconscious with a vase.

"Which waiter would open the door and ask directly? It's a bit smart, but not enough."

"I didn't expect that someone would get restless before achieving anything." Jiang Jing tied the man to a chair, scooped a bowl of rain water and poured it on his face, then scooped another half bowl and fed him to drink.

This operation confused Jiusu.

She blinked. "I understand that pouring cold water is to sober him up, but are you feeding him water out of kindness?"

"You'll know in a moment." Jiang Jing kept it a secret.

Then, the man in black opened his eyes in pain. He wanted to touch the back of his head, but realized that he was tied up. Seeing the two people in front of him, fear filled his heart. He smiled and said, "Well, why did you tie me up?"

Jiusu laughed in anger. Are the killers here so shameless?

"Do you think we are blind? If you talk nicely, maybe I can leave you an intact body." She crossed her arms and said seriously. She had never killed anyone, but she didn't mind operating for this killer.

Seeing that the women had such a tough attitude, the men around them felt intimidated without even getting angry.

The man in black was no longer arrogant. He shrugged and said, "I have no ill intentions. I just came to steal some silver. I was wrong. I will never do it again. Please let me go, two kind people."

Jiusu asked: "How much money will your employer give you if you kill us?"

"Thirty taels for killing one..." The man in black reacted and shut up immediately. His stomach was rumbling. Hey, how come this girl is so powerful? She blew him away with just one sentence.

His eyes kept rolling around, trying to think of a way to escape.

Suddenly, the rope on my body loosened.

The man in black was stunned. Was he planning to kill him? He quickly raised his hands and clasped his fists, forcing a smile and begging for mercy: "Brother and sister, I was wrong. Please don't kill me. This is my first time taking action and I haven't done anything bad. I have an 18-year-old mother, no, an 80-year-old daughter..."

Wow, what on earth is he talking about?

Tears flowed uncontrollably. I thought killing was a simple matter, but I had to sacrifice myself just to earn money for retirement.

Jiang Jing asked: "What's your name? Who sent you?"

The man in black immediately said, "My name is Qi Xiao. Wang Daozhi asked me to come here! He asked me to keep the secret strictly. I swore that I would never betray you. But when I saw you two, I felt very close to you, like you were my parents again. Now my life is in danger, so I have to say, Big Brother, I was really wrong. Please don't kill me, okay?"

Jiusu raised his eyebrows. It seemed that he was not stupid, but really foolish.

"Is this the only bad thing you've done?"

"Yes, and they haven't done it yet!" Qi Xiao scratched his head. Seeing that the two were not bad people, he relaxed his vigilance. "But stealing bird eggs when you were a kid shouldn't be a bad thing, right?"

Jiusu was silent for a while. It was hard to judge. She said calmly, "It was a catastrophic disaster for the bird family. The hatred of killing birds is irreconcilable."

I don’t know if Qi Xiao poked his lungs.

After hearing this, he couldn't stop laughing, "Hahahaha, big sister, you are so interesting, why don't you go tell stories, and I will definitely be your audience."

Jiu Su: "..."

Jiang Jing rubbed his eyebrows. This laughter was indeed too chaotic. Then, a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes.

"You accepted Wang Daozhi's money to save your life. I'm afraid that if I let you go, he will try every means to kill us next, right? Otherwise, Wang Daozhi will not let you go."

Qi Xiao pinched his chin and forced himself to stop laughing.

He hurriedly explained: "Wang Daozhi hasn't paid yet. I didn't want to kill anyone. If my family hadn't been sick, I wouldn't have taken the wrong path. In fact, I regretted it the moment I walked in..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the boy looked painful and covered his stomach.

"It hurts, no, I need to go to the toilet..."

Jiang Jing blocked him, "What if you run away? Take off the black cloth and let us see what you look like."

Qi Xiao clamped his legs together and could only pull off his mask. Seeing the two men nod, he quickly ran towards the toilet.

"I will definitely come back!"
