Chapter 9 Your Excellency is Wise

Regarding how they learned that the dog had a gold note hidden in its belly, the two elders looked at each other with embarrassment on their old faces.

You and I gave way to each other, but in the end, it was Zhang Dezi who spoke up, saying that the dog said it himself.

Animals can speak, what they say is as good as the Arabian Nights, Liu Ling doesn't believe it at all.

Liu Ling stared at Zhang Dezi bitterly, and said with a sneer, "Oh? I mean, old man Zhang, are you sure you didn't misremember it? It was the dog who told you that there was a gold note hidden in his belly? Old man Zhang , don’t talk nonsense, I think you are a first-time offender, it’s best to be lenient when you confess, and strict when you resist, don’t be ignorant.”

"My lord, what Caomin said is true, there is absolutely no falsehood! Otherwise, you will be bitten by a dog when you get out of prison!" Zhang Dezi clanged his words and swore to the sky with four fingers raised.

When Liu Ling saw it, he was shaken and suspicious, and said: "Okay, very good, then tell me, what kind of truth is this?"

As if he had made an agreement and fulfilled his obligation, Zhang Dezi swung Niu Gui who was standing by with his elbow.

Niu Gui understood, thought for a while, and then answered the question, and told the story of the future: "My lord, in fact, this is the case. Caomin and old man Zhang met in Sanlicha on the way home yesterday morning, and accidentally found the dog lying on the road. Next to it, there is a prominent sign hanging around the dog's neck, and there is a picture drawn on the sign, which shows that the dog has a gold bar hidden in its belly..."

Having said this in one breath, Niu Gui was a little out of breath due to his age, so Liu Ling continued to guess for him: "So you are blind to money, believe it is true, and quarrel for taking the gold note as your own." After a lot of discussion, but there was no result after arguing for a long time, so I went to the Yamen?"

"My lord is talented and intelligent, you are indeed wise!" The two elders nodded like chickens pecking at rice, and Zhang Dezi gave Liu Ling a thumbs up.

Liu Ling rolled her eyes, but said with a headache: "You are a fart. If I didn't tell you, you wouldn't be able to calm down. You won't be aware of it. Come and see whoever has a share, and share that dog's disembowelment and take the money together." Stolen?"

"Uh..." The two elders were silent for a while, and said in unison, "My lord, this is not good."

What's wrong with that?

Liu Ling saw that the two elders were pretending to be quite a gentleman, but in the end, it was nothing more than a nice word, the two elders always made money.

To put it harshly, isn't it because their fat and water don't want to flow to outsiders' fields, and when they go to the yamen, they understand that they would rather die for jade than for tile.

"What about the dog brand?" Liu Ling rubbed his eyebrows, feeling unhappy, and said that he was really full and all right, and he was afraid that he would be such a waste of time.

However, before the incident was exposed, it was better to make the big and small things smaller, so as not to waste the original 1000 taels of silver.

Zhang Dezi blinked and looked at Niu Gui.

Niu Gui thought about it, but when he was old, he tended to forget things and couldn't remember clearly: "The dog sign... probably, maybe, maybe, maybe it's still lying there at Sanlicha."

"Master, take a few people to Sanlicha to look for it immediately." Liu Ling turned his head and gave instructions to the master who was taking notes, then turned and left the cell where the second elder was being held to find the next cell, Chen Dabao.

"My lord, how long do we have to stay here, and when can we go out for a walk?" Zhang Dezi shouted from behind holding the iron bars.

Liu Lingyang gestured behind him with his hand, and replied: "Don't worry, wait until I find the dog sign."

……

When he walked to the cell where Chen Dabao was, he reached the door of the cell. Chen Dabao, who was still picking his teeth with his legs crossed, immediately posted it: "My lord, you are here, but are you here to let me out personally?"

"We're not in a hurry, Ben..."

"Why don't you be in a hurry, I'm so anxious!" Before Liu Ling could finish speaking, Chen Dabao cut off his words.

"What are you in a hurry for?"

Chen Dabao burst into tears immediately, pitifully: "My lord, to be honest, I was originally the eldest son of the richest man in the capital, the Chen family, spending money like rain every day, but unfortunately my father died suddenly ten years ago, so my family has fallen into ruin. I go out to beg for food, there are old people, there are young people, and there is a vicious stepmother at home..."

"Come on, stop talking nonsense, I'm not here today to listen to your stories." Liu Ling interrupted him this time, thinking that even a beggar is like this these days, is it moral after all? Lost, or the distortion of human nature?

"..."

"I just want to ask you a question, as long as you answer truthfully, you can go out and continue begging immediately."

"Really?"

"If it's fake, do you want to kill this official immediately to sacrifice to heaven?"

Chen Dabao nodded vigorously: "Yes, my lord. So, you should ask quickly, early death and early rebirth."

"Snapped!"

Liu Ling took a deep breath, raised his hand and shook Chen Dabao's face through the cell door, and asked quite comfortably: "I don't ask anything else, just tell me whether that dog belongs to you or not?"

"Uuuuuh... no."

"Since it is not, why did you open your eyes and talk nonsense when I questioned you in the previous court, saying that it was your dog?"

Chen Dabao's crying stopped abruptly, and his expression suddenly turned serious: "Your Excellency must have known that there is gold in that dog's stomach!"

Although this beggar is a little over two hundred and five, but he is straightforward and unassuming. Liu Ling is quite calm: "How do you know that there is gold hidden in that dog's belly?"

The answer was nothing innovative, just like the two elders, they were both money-obsessed, and when they saw money, they would rather believe it and believe it was true.

Liu Ling then asked: "What about the dog brand?

Chen Dabao looked left and right, and said angrily: "My lord, in order not to be discovered by others, I took advantage of the quarrel between the two elders who were blushing and thick-necked to leave, and I will give the dog sign to you as long as I don't stop. Buried."

"Where are you buried?"

"It wasn't buried anywhere, it was buried where Sanlicha Gouzi was lying."
