After watching the spring plowing, Tang Qingyun warmly invited them to have a meal in this farm.

Chu Yaoguang wanted to agree and continue to observe.

Unexpectedly, Mingzhi refused very firmly.

On the way back, Chu Yaoguang was very puzzled: "Although their play is a bit clumsy, it's not like they can't stay and observe."

The implication is that there is no need to leave so early.

Mingzhi was silent for a moment, then replied, "There is a farmer who recognizes me."

Chu Yaoguang was stunned.

Chu Yaoguang came to his senses: "Hahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Mingzhi: "..."

Back to the house.

Chu Yaoguang wanted to analyze the situation with Mingzhi again to see if there was anything missing, but was dragged away by Tang Huier who was waiting at the gate of the house.

"Is spring plowing fun?" Tang Huier asked with a smile.

Chu Yaoguang shook his head: "It's not very fun."

Tang Huier lost interest in asking, and took Chu Yaoguang to Baozhen Pavilion in Maoling City to buy jewelry.

Chu Yaoguang asked, "Why buy jewelry?"

Tang Hui'er smiled: "Give it away."

When they arrived at Baozhen Pavilion, Tang Hui'er was obviously a regular customer. As soon as the shopkeeper saw her, he led them into the inner room.

Tang Hui'er spotted the hairpin, and was listening to the shopkeeper's introduction on which update is clever.

She looked back, but saw Chu Yaoguang just standing there, looking very idle, and immediately hated iron and steel: "Don't you have a beloved man in the capital? Do you want to give him a piece of jewelry?"

Chu Yaoguang immediately thought of Lu Xingyun.

She was busy in Guixia County, and she hadn't seen Lu Xingyun for a long time.

So she leaned over silently.

Tang Huier: "On the road."

After picking and choosing for a long time, Tang Hui'er chose two extremely expensive jade hairpins, and Chu Yaoguang chose a flower tin.

A small one, in the shape of an orchid, made of white jade, shiny and delicate.Lying safely on the red cloth of the small box, it looks very pleasant.

When Chu Yaoguang thought of Lu Xingyun's exquisite face with this orchid flower tinsel, his heart felt itchy.

Tang Hui'er said, "That's all you bought."

Chu Yaoguang snorted, "What do you know?"

The two walked out of Baozhen Pavilion together.

"Who do you want to give the hairpin you chose?" Chu Yaoguang asked casually.

Tang Huier said: "Who else can it be, of course it is Qingyang."

Chu Yaoming realized that this "Qingyang" was probably Wang Wanyi's legitimate son and Tang Huier's sweetheart.

"But he has a cold temper, so there is a high probability that he won't accept it." Tang Hui'er said softly.

Chu Yaoguang was taken aback.

She thought that Tang Hui'er and the county sheriff were in love with each other.

Wasn't it?

Just as she was thinking silently, she heard Tang Hui'er snort coldly: "I won't accept it now. When I get married, I will put everything in her jewelry box."

Chu Yaoguang: "..."

Chu Yaoguang said: "So you like men with cold tempers."

Tang Huier said: "I just like Wang Qingyang."

Back to their own yard.

Chu Yaoguang put the box away and asked Mr. Zhu to bring a pen and paper.

She was going to make a list to see if she had missed anything.

Taxation, Qi Treasurer, assassination, Wang Wanyi, Tang Qingyun, Dang County...

Half a month's experience passed through her mind bit by bit.

Chu Yaoguang thought carefully and wrote down the nouns she thought were important.

and many more.

Chu Yaoguang circled the words "Qi Treasurer".

I used too much force, and the brush pierced the paper.

Chu Yaoguang stared blankly at these three words, and murmured, "I seem to have forgotten..."

Chu Yaoguang ran out of the yard, and grabbed Mingzhi who was reading documents in Mingzhi's study.

She paused every word: "You once said that Treasurer Qi was buried, where is she buried?"

Although Mingzhi didn't know why, she still answered: "Buried at the foot of the Red Mountain outside Maoling City. Maoling City is too far away from the capital, so her family buried her nearby."

"It's not easy for us to check taxes, so why don't we convict them with the death of Treasurer Qi!" Chu Yaoguang said with clenched fists.

"Although taxation is a big and important matter, in fact, as long as it is found out that Qi Treasurer's death is inseparable from them, they can still be taken down."

Chu Yaoguang said: "Murdering officials and deceiving the emperor is enough for them to drink a pot. As long as they are controlled, the tax issue will be much easier to investigate."

Why didn't they think of this in the first place.

In the final analysis, the death of a small treasurer is really not very noticeable compared with the arbitrary taxation of a county chief to control the corruption of the entire county.

The focus of their investigation has always been on taxes.

Although I also paid attention to Qi Treasurer, I didn't go into it.

Mingzhi thought for a while, clapped his hands and said: "You are right, Treasurer Qi can indeed be used as a breakthrough."

With Mingzhi's approval, Chu Yaoguang heaved a sigh of relief.

"However," Mingzhi said, "Qi Treasurer's relatives have left Maoling City, and her former residence has been sold to a wealthy businessman. Only her former neighbor and the files I asked for can trace some traces. Very easy to check."

Chu Yaoguang shook his head: "There is one more thing."

Mingzhi was puzzled: "What?"

Chu Yaoguang smiled: "The corpse of Treasurer Qi."

Mingzhi's eyes widened, and she looked at Chu Yaoguang with a look she had never seen before: "What do you mean?"

Chu Yaoguang said: "Open the coffin for an autopsy, I don't believe she died suddenly."

"No!" Mingzhi vetoed it straight away, "How can you move her body at will?"

Chu Yaoguang understood the respect people have for the corpses of dead people in this era, so he patiently explained: "I don't do anything, I just take her body out of the coffin and ask Wu Zuo to re-examine her to see if she is a dead woman. sudden death……"

Mingzhi said: "No!"

Chu Yaoguang said gently: "Don't worry, the body will be put back after the inspection."

Mingzhi said: "No!"

Chu Yaoguang said: "We are also thinking about the overall situation. Think about it, isn't it a good deal to bring down Wang Wanyi with just a silent corpse?"

Mingzhi said: "No!"

Chu Yaoguang: "..."

"If you can't, you have to!" Chu Yaoguang looked at Mingzhi's resolute expression, and the evil came out of his guts, "Tonight I will dig Qi Siku's grave with a hoe and pull her out of the coffin!"

Mingzhi was so angry at Chu Yaoguang's rebellious words that he wanted to vomit blood: "No! Your disrespect to the corpse is also disrespect to ghosts and gods. Are you trying to bring bad luck?!"

"My mother is a princess, a true dragon and a goddess, I'm afraid it will be a hammer," Chu Yaoguang said violently, "What kind of gods and ghosts, my mother is a materialist."

Mingzhi was silent for a moment, and asked sincerely: "What is a 'materialist'?"

Chu Yaoguang: "..."

Damn, the ears are so good.

Chu Yaoguang said: "It's just that I'm not afraid of ghosts and gods. If I can solve the problem in Guixia County, let me dig ten graves..."

Now Mingzhi jumped: "Your Highness be careful!"
