Pearl Round Yurun

?Yuan Run and others traveled all the way, and no one even saw that this was the newly appointed magistrate.

The arrival of Xinzhi County has already been announced in the city to inform the people, and the towns and villages under its jurisdiction have also sent people to announce it—except for the Baishui Village where the fighting took place, but the person who knows the magistrate's appearance is There are only a few people in the yamen, and even few ordinary people who know that the new magistrate is a woman.

Therefore, when Yuan Run and He Leshui arrived at Qiyun Pavilion, the second waiter who greeted the guests at the door didn't even recognize that Yuan Run was the master of the county, and flattered He Leshui all the time.

He Leshui couldn't say anything, so he could only let him stay and lead Yuan Run upstairs by himself.

Entering the large private seat on the third floor, I saw that the two Eight Immortals tables inside were almost full, and only the first three or four seats were vacant for Yuan Run and others to sit down.

A group of squires and celebrities invited the Magistrate to the banquet. Naturally, it was impossible to be late. Everyone came early, and when they saw Yuan Run coming, they all left the table one by one, introducing themselves while saying flattering words.

Yuan Run asked, and sure enough, there was no Baishui Village, so Yuan Run didn't keep the rest of the residences in mind, but only briefly remembered the situation of everyone.

As soon as he was seated, Dr. Tong arrived—this is a middle-aged man in his 40s, with a short beard, a yellowish complexion, and a good demeanor. He really looks like a well-educated person.

Yuan Run hurriedly stood up: "Dr. Tong, I have just arrived here, and I have not come to see you because of trivial matters. I am sorry and disrespectful."

"The old man is a man of low morals. The magistrate of Helao County is here in person—you are welcome." Dr. Tong also bowed his hands in a salute, without any hint of humility.

On the way here, Yuan Run had already spoofed words from He Leshui's mouth. He knew that the teacher who taught in the Literature Museum had a doctorate and three lecturers at the county level; It is called the Text Society, equipped with three doctors, ten lecturers, and one professor. Those at the state level are called the College of Liberal Arts. There are no lecturers, but ten doctors, three professors, and one national scholar; Now, it is full of professors and national scholars teaching, and the top manager of Guozijian is called Guozijian Jijiu.

Of course, the literary museum at the county level also has the function of evaluating scholars, and the institutions at the next level are only concerned with teaching and have no function of evaluating.

Thinking about it, if you become a juren, you may become an official. The assessment is a matter for the Ministry of Officials, and it is the turn of the educational institution.

But in Yunlai County, Dr. Tong is the head of the literati in the county, and even the three people present did not dare to ignore him, and stepped forward to salute him.

So Yuan Run also expressed respect to Dr. Tong, and wanted him to sit at the head.No matter where Dr. Tong was willing to take a seat, Yuan Run took the first seat in the end, and Dr. Tong and He Leshui sat on both sides of her to accompany her.

As soon as the people were seated, the waiter brought up a cold dish platter, and two of the eight cold dishes were beef. In ancient times, cattle were an important means of production, and eating beef was considered a luxury.

If you have little food, you eat whatever you want. This is also a sign of wealth—just like in the Song Dynasty in ancient China, the rich put salt in their dishes to show off their wealth. The salt at that time was ridiculously expensive. There is even a folk proverb "Jiechi salt, Bai Shengxue, a dendrobium is worth tens of thousands of dollars".

At the banquet, they also flattered each other, especially for Yuan Run, who was really boasting. The most talented woman in the world, the number one female champion, etc., all annoyed Yuan Run very much.

However, one of the Juren surnamed Qiu inadvertently revealed the phrase "the celebrity in front of the prince" which made Yuan Run vigilant--does this Luo Yushang have anything to do with the prince?Did the robbery and killing this time be caused by the prince?

You must know that the prince in ancient times was a very delicate position. If he performed too well, he would easily make the emperor jealous. If he did not perform well, he would easily dissatisfy the emperor.

However, Yuan Run had no way to inquire about the affairs of the court. If he inquired, he was afraid that it would arouse some suspicion.

Subconsciously touched the dick in his waist pocket, collected himself, decided to ignore this matter for the time being, just ignored Qiu Juren's words, and instead persuaded Dr. Tong to drink.

After drinking for three rounds, Yuan Run began to ask Dr. Tong consciously: "Dr. Tong, are you a local?"

Dr. Tong nodded and smiled, "Yes, I'm from this county. I was a Jinshi of Enke in the first year of Shenwu. After spending a lot of time in the Imperial College, I think it's better to come back to my hometown and do something for my hometown."

Yuan Run said with a smile: "Dr. Tong retired bravely for the sake of this county, it is really commendable. In recent years, he has trained/taught many outstanding disciples."

Dr. Tong stroked his beard and smiled without saying a word. Seeing this, Yuan Run turned his head and clinked glasses with Song Juren who was one seat away. He slightly emptied the wine in the glass, and then winked at He Leshui.

On the way here, Yuan Run had already told him that he wanted to re-investigate Mo Chengchen's case, and asked him to join him in making a pretense to Dr. Tong—to question him in an official capacity, it is very likely that he would have to Get what you want, even if he is also a government official.

In fact, the status of a doctor, although enjoying an official salary, is actually an employment relationship with the government, which is different from an official who has become an official.So Yuan Run respected him, and he didn't look flattered, and the others present also didn't feel any strange feeling.

But He Leshui was working under Yuan Run's hands, and seeing Yuan Run's wink, he immediately understood, and said to Dr. Tong: "Dr. Tong is the best teacher in Yunlai, and his disciples are full of peaches and plums. "

Dr. Tong's cheeks glowed even more when he heard it—at this time he was already feeling a little fuzzy—and said with a smile: "Where is it, I just did what I should do."

Yuan Run listened to it for a while—I didn't expect to hear this sentence in ancient times!

So he said, "Dr. Tong, I heard that you have a student named Li De under your seat?"

Dr. Tong frowned slightly, and thought for a moment: "Oh, there is such a person, but he is not outstanding. Every quarterly exam, he is in the third or fourth class, and occasionally the fifth class. It is not considered outstanding. Student. What, the adults want to ask him for something?"

Yuan Rundao: "I heard that he once testified in a murder case in this county, and his family was very poor. Now the file of that case has been sent back by the Jinzhou governor's office, saying that the case is suspicious. I have read it, indeed. It should not be judged as manslaughter, but a typical murder of money, so I want to ask him for questioning. I don't know how he is, will he protect him because he is a classmate with the suspect Mo Chengchen?"

Dr. Tong frowned and pondered for a while, and then said: "Probably not—the old man has heard about that case. The deceased in this case was a distant relative of Li De, and it was Li De who introduced Mo Chengchenyun to stay overnight. Li De himself. So after this happened, Li De blamed himself very much, and hated Mo Chengchen to the bone, so he probably wouldn't favor him."

Yuan Run said with a smile: "The relationship between Li De and Mo Chengchen should be good, otherwise, he would not have introduced him to live with his relatives. What if his heart softened? How is Li De usually like?"

Dr. Tong thought for a while, and then said: "He is usually a man of few words, and he doesn't know what his personality is. It seems that few have a good relationship with him. Mo Chengchen's relationship with him should not be good. The reason why he I will introduce Mo Chengchen to his relative's house for help, because his family is really poor, so I will lead this thread for him, and there should be some benefits."

Yuan Run nodded—it seems that Mo Chengchen and Li De were not without motives when they saw the money.

Li De knew that Zhu's fourth family had money, so he wanted to steal it?Fourth Zhu is a lonely old man. If he dies, his property will naturally belong to Li De...

Is it because of this motive?

Li De's family is poor, so it's not impossible for Li De to take a fancy to the wealth of his distant relative Zhu Lao Si... But why Zhu Lao Si refuses to help his only relative?

So he said to Dr. Tong: "It's a pity. The one hundred copper coins left by the deceased Zhu Laosi are still stored in the yamen as evidence. Otherwise, it's better to hand them over to Li De, his only relative. ease his hunger and poverty a little."

Dr. Tong smiled: "There's no need to worry too much about it. This Li De has recently turned his luck and won successes in the casino, so he has quite a lot of money."

Yuan Runqi asked, "Is he fond of gambling?"

Dr. Tong said: "That's natural. If not, why would his cousin not help his nephew? Even though he is a distant relative, he wouldn't let him be injured by debt collectors in the casino. It's a bet. It’s useless to invest more money in it.”

Yuan Run narrowed his eyes slightly—he owed gambling debts, so he needed money even more, so he attacked his relatives?

It seems that the motive is there, the problem is the evidence... Also, for the casino, I still need a certificate... I will go to Baishui Village later and discuss it with the soft girl.

At this time, the people at the table next to him came to toast again. Yuan Run just touched his lips slightly on the grounds that he was light-bodied. In fact, Yuan Run had a good capacity for alcohol before crossing, but God knows that Luo Yu now What is Chang's body like? If he gets drunk, he won't be able to see Ruan Yuzhu tonight!

So I tried my best to deal with it, but I tried not to drink. Instead, most of the toasters gave the toast to Dr. Tong, the respectable and lovely teacher of the Literature Museum.In the end, Dr. Tong was very drunk, He Leshui was half drunk, and everyone else was slightly drunk, but Yuan Run was the most sober person.
