Chapter 277

Bodies? What news did they hear?

Song Xintong opened his eyes wide. What kind of murder happened?

Aware of his wife's fear, Lu Yunkai took song Xintong in his arms and whispered, "don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

The Yi Cheng led the county magistrate and the officials to come in in a hurry. The officials quickly took over the work of the Yi soldiers. They were all armed with waist knives, which seemed more dignified than the Yi soldiers.

Yi Cheng said: "because of the rain yesterday, there were nearly 30 people living in the post house to take shelter from the rain, all of them here."

The magistrate nodded, "where is the body?"

"In the cottage."

The soldier quickly led him to the cottage outside the yard.

Yi Cheng said, "my Lord, it was the soldiers of our post house who found the dead. They were so scared that they came to report to me. As soon as they got the news, they sent people to the county to look for you. Now they are in the front hall, and they haven't slowed down."

County Magistrate frowned, just let his people to do, he stood in the yard scanning song Xintong and others.

When the woman heard the news of the dead, she turned pale. "My Lord, it has nothing to do with us. We are all women and boys. How can we have such bad luck and encounter such things?"

"Adults, it has nothing to do with us... I couldn't wake up all night and didn't get up to pee. It has nothing to do with us. Several people in my room can testify to me."

"Even if we can testify, we didn't go..."

The Yamen officer roared out: "shut up, you are not allowed to speak before you speak!"

When they were yelled at, they immediately kept silent.

The county magistrate said in a deep voice: "I have my own conclusion whether it is you or not."

Soon, he came back and whispered a few words in the county magistrate's ear. The county magistrate nodded, then said a word to the Yamen next to him, and turned to the lobby outside.

After the county magistrate left, the Yamen officers said in a loud voice: "now, we call one person and go out one person."

In this way, one person after another was called out. It wasn't long before no one went out. In less than two minutes, the next person changed. Soon it was Lu Yunkai's turn and song Xintong's turn.

The Yamen officer looked at Dabao. They were children, but they just called several adults.

Lu Yun arched his hand. "My wife is pregnant. The ground is slippery. Can I accompany her?"

The Yamen servant took a look at Song Xintong's stomach. Because his clothes were tightened by song Xintong, he could see the protruding abdomen. He also saw that they were clean and fresh, not like evildoers, and nodded.

They went to the lobby together, and the magistrate sat on his chair and looked at them.

Lu Yunkai arched his hand and said, "I've seen you."

The magistrate took a look at them and said, "what's your name and where do you live?"

Lu Yunkai said: "student Lu Yunkai lives in Taohua village, Qingjiang county. This is his wife. This trip is to visit friends in Lingnan city. Last night, he stayed at the post station because of the heavy rain."

As soon as the magistrate saw Lu Yunkai's appearance, he knew that he was a scholar. He felt gentle and polite when he spoke, so he ruled them out immediately. However, he still had to cross examine them according to the procedure, "when did you check in yesterday, what did you do afterwards, and what did you hear from midnight until Yinshi?"

Lu Yunkai said: "Mr. Hui, I stayed in the post station at the end of Shenshi yesterday. After that, my wife arranged to wash and eat. I went to sleep about three minutes after Xu Shi. At midnight, I only heard a thunder. When I woke up, I got up and poured a glass of water for my wife. After drinking, we went to sleep again, but I didn't hear the sound."

The magistrate nodded.

Song Xintong took a look at the magistrate. He was thin and smart. He looked very honest. He was far from the fat and corrupt magistrate of Qingjiang county.

If only Qingjiang county had such a magistrate.

The county magistrate asked a few more questions, and then asked him to hold out his hand to have a look. Finally, he asked someone to step down.

After leaving the lobby, song Xintong breathed a sigh of relief. As they walked back slowly, they met the family who lived in the small yard inside. As they passed by, the girl took a furtive look at Lu Yun.

Song Xintong was discontented and said sarcastically, "what are you looking at? Do you want to have a look at all the good-looking men? "

This young lady was said to blush immediately, and she wanted to answer back. But she was glared at by the Yamen servant, and then she shut up.

Song Xintong raised his hand and twisted it around Lu Yunkai's waist. "I'll tell you, why do you look so good?"

Lu Yunkai snorted in pain, and then held song Xintong's hand in his hand, "isn't she scared by my face? After that, I just felt scared. "

"I don't like them." Song Xintong didn't like the fear and sympathy of others looking at the scar on Lu Yunkai's side face. It was just a scar. As for showing that look?

"Well, it's getting light. Let's pack up and leave early." Lu Yunkai looks at Song Xintong. He is upset by the way others look at him. He doesn't want others to look at her with that kind of eyes, so he always stands in front of him every time. How can he have such a wife who knows him, protects him and loves him.

Lu Yunkai thinks it's right to marry her.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Song Xintong looked at him with a smile, "don't you think I'm beautiful?"

"..." Lu Yunkai felt that his wife's face was really thick.

"Do you still dislike me?" Song Xintong hummed twice and twisted Lu Xiucai's waist again. He felt that his hand was really good. It is estimated that there are not many women who dare to screw their husband like this in Dazhou, right?

"Lady, I dare not." Lu Yun opened and lowered his voice. "It's painful. I'm afraid it's bruised."

Song Xintong quickly took back his hand and said anxiously, "then I'll find you a little wine to wipe it?"

"No more." Lu Yunkai grabs song Xintong's soft little hand, "don't pinch me, lady."

"All right, no pinch." Song Xintong sighed with chagrin, "not next time."

They went back to the yard, but the Yamen servants were still staring at them, and they didn't dare to speak out.

"Chai ye, that's all. Can we pack up and go back?" Someone asked.

The Yamen officer looked at them and said in a flat voice, "I don't know. Go back to the house and stay. You can't come out without permission!"

"It's nothing to do with us. We're not allowed to leave. It's going to take a long time."

"That's it."

Song Xintong went into the room and heard what they said. He asked in a low voice, "it's too scary. I didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen. The post station won't let us stay here for a few days, will it?"

"No, we should be able to leave at dawn. Let's clean up first." Lu Yun said.

"Good." Song Xintong and Daya said a word, and then they went back to their rooms to clean up the salute, folded the quilt and put it on the cage. When they were ready to go, they carried the things directly to the carriage.

Song Xintong whispered: "I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, and it's not just who did it."
