After time travel, I ate glutinous rice bran in ancient times

Wang Yugui was a little excited. Oh, he encountered a plainclothes operation in the government office.

Captain Liu sighed: "Hey, what action is there? The brothers are helping Shuijing Temple sell fruits!"

"Ah? Help Shuijing Temple sell fruits?" Wang Yugui was very surprised.

Late in the evening, yamen runners were in plain clothes helping Shuijing Temple sell fruits and vegetables. What kind of play was being performed in the yamen?

Seeing Wang Yugui's surprise, Captain Liu smiled and said, "How about it, Painter Wang? Didn't expect that?"

"Haha, I didn't expect that we would have to sell fruits and vegetables while working in the government office!"

"No, Captain Liu, what's going on?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly.

As he spoke, he looked up at Cai Ji, who was not far ahead.

He asked Captain Liu: "Captain Liu, do you also want to stay here and sell fruits and vegetables?"

"Well, I don't need to. People on the street are familiar with my face. It's inconvenient for me to sell fruits and vegetables, so I just come to see them." Captain Liu laughed.

Then he pointed at the guys selling fruits and vegetables and said, "Don't you see they are all strangers? We picked them specially for you!"

Wang Yugui also laughed after hearing this. No wonder he didn't recognize any of them. It turned out that the government office had specially selected some new faces to sell melons.

"Captain Liu, let's go to Caiji in front and have a drink. Caiji's cold dishes are pretty good. I'll treat you!" Wang Yugui said with a smile

Then he said, "That's great. I still have a lot of things I want to ask you!"

"Well, that's fine, let's go have a drink. I haven't had dinner yet, and I'm a little hungry. Haha." Captain Liu nodded.

The two of them came to Cai Ji together, ordered a table of cold dishes, asked for a pot of sweet wine, and started eating and drinking.

After three cups of wine, Captain Liu told the story: "Hey, Painter Xiao Wang, Master Nianshan from Shuijing Temple committed suicide by taking poison. Do you know about this?"

"Well, I heard about it at the county government office that day, but I don't know the details," Wang Yugui said hurriedly.

He asked again, "Master Nianshan is in prison, where did she get the poison? Did she carry it with her?"

"Yes, she must have hidden it on her body. Since she is a nun, we didn't search her body carefully." Captain Liu nodded.

He added, "This Nun Nianshan, her death has put an end to everything, leaving all the troubles to our County Magistrate Hai!"

"Oh, Lord Hai won't be in trouble because of this, right?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly.

Captain Liu drank another glass of wine and said, "Master Hai said it's okay, just report the matter to the higher-ups."

"Oh, what was the final verdict of Lord Hai on the Shuijing Temple case?" Wang Yugui asked again.

Captain Liu sighed: "Well, come to think of it, the nuns of Shuijing Temple really have something to thank our Lord Hai for!"

"In order to find out the truth, Haida University gave the nuns a fair explanation."

"Not only did they check the files of Shuijing Temple's previous reports to the authorities, they also checked and surveyed the population situation in Wangtian County over the past ten years!"

"Check the population situation of the entire county?" Wang Yugui was unable to react for a moment.

Captain Liu nodded and smiled: "Yes, Mr. Hai said that fortunately two years ago when County Magistrate Liu was in office, he had just conducted a county-wide population census and registration."

"It saves him a lot of work. By comparing the past and the present, the number of missing people in the county will be very clear."

"Excluding those who died of old age, illness, and accidents, the rest are mostly missing."

"After further investigation of these missing persons, we found that these people are indeed not good people, but criminals with bad records."

"So, we can probably infer that what Nianshan said was true. They only killed the thieves who climbed over the wall and entered the nunnery at night. They didn't kill innocent people indiscriminately!"

Captain Liu drank another glass of wine when he said this: "Master Xiao Wang, do you think Mr. Hai is very smart?"

"The dead can't speak. They are just a pile of bones. Who can tell who they are?"

"This is the only way to indirectly support what Master Nianshan and the others said."

"Mr. Hai reported these investigation results and the nuns' testimonies."

"Master Hai is so thoughtful!" Wang Yugui nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

Captain Liu nodded: "Yes, so Lord Hai finally made this judgment: The Shuijing murder case happened for a reason, and the main culprit, Nianshan, committed suicide out of fear of crime, so she can no longer be punished!"

"The accomplice, Nian Zhen, has always been insane and is now unconscious. He will be sent back to the nunnery and detained. He must not be released to cause trouble again."

"There is nothing wrong with the two nuns, Jinle and Jinfan, who were on night watch, catching thieves at night. They did not kill anyone and can be exempted from punishment after being admonished."

"The other nuns in the nunnery did not participate in the murder, nor did they know about it, so they can be exempted from prosecution!"

"As for Shuijing Temple, there are too many nuns inside, so it is not suitable to disband it. Master Hai still recommends keeping it."

"However, the nunnery will be closed for a year to allow the nuns to reflect on themselves."

"The back garden of the nunnery is permanently closed!"

After hearing this, Wang Yugui nodded secretly and thought: Mr. Hai is still very sympathetic to the nuns, so this can be considered a lenient sentence.

Thinking of this, Wang Yugui nodded: "Well, Lord Hai's judgment is very fair, it should be so!"

Then he looked at Captain Liu and said, "Captain Liu, why is the government helping Shuijing Temple sell fruits?"

"Well, after Nianshan passed away, Lord Hai followed Nianshan's last words and let Master Nianci take over the post of abbot of Shuijing Temple temporarily." Captain Liu drank a glass of wine and continued.

He added: "After Nianshan was sent back to Shuijing Temple for burial, Nianci came to find Master Hai."

"They said that because the government had sealed off Shuijing Temple for many days, the fruits and vegetables in the back hills of their temple were ripe."

"But we can't sell them. The big customers who used to buy fruits and vegetables from the temple heard that something happened in Shuijing Temple, so they stopped buying fruits and vegetables this year."

"Now, Nianshan has died again, and the nunnery is involved in a lawsuit involving bones again."

"It's not convenient for nuns to go down the mountain to the city to sell fruits and vegetables. She asked Master Hai to help her think of a solution!"

Captain Liu said, and drank another glass of wine: "Master Wang, you know what kind of person Mr. Hai is."

"Since Master Nianci said so, he will naturally help!"

"But, there are a lot of fruits and vegetables on the hill behind Shuijing'an, and it's impossible for Lord Hai to buy them all by himself."

"If the government collects all the money and sells it outside the government gate, that would not be appropriate."

"So, Lord Hai came up with an idea. He asked me to select some unfamiliar yamen runners and have them dress in plain clothes and go out to the streets to help the nuns of Shuijing Temple sell fruits and vegetables in the morning and evening."

"As for fruits and vegetables, it's mainly the young brothers who are selling them. I just come to check on them from time to time, fearing that they'll be lazy, haha!"

"Oh, that's why." Wang Yugui also laughed after hearing this.

Master Hai is asking the yamen runners to make full use of their spare time to help the nuns solve their problems!

Thinking of this, he laughed again and said, "This is good, but it's hard work for the yamen runners, haha."

"It's not bad. Mr. Hai is pretty good. He said he would pay the brothers more." Captain Liu also smiled.
