Mu Chengfang lowered her head and packed her things, but her tone was gentle: "Mother Dong, I just found a job and need to move over."

Hearing this, Mother Dong was extremely happy.

The Mother Dong was puzzled, "But Miss, I have to take care of you."

"What?" Mother Dong shouted in disbelief. "You're going to be a corona?"

It was easier to accept than to believe what she was hearing that there was something wrong with her old ears.

Mu Chengfang sighed, then sat on the side of the bed and said: "Don't look down upon this chore, when we are outside, we are not here to enjoy ourselves. "Since you want to make plans for your life, you can't pick and choose from all over the place."

"But …" The Mother Dong said hesitantly.

Mu Chengfang interrupted: "There are no buts, if you want to follow me, then go to the county magistrate court with me. If you really feel that it's hard to reject corona's job, you can also stay here as a chef. "

After hesitating for a long time, the Mother Dong decided to follow Mu Chengfang.

It was hard to accept … Try to accept it.

The master and the servant entered the county magistrate court that very night. Once he entered, he immediately led the way, to the constable called A Yuan. His mouth was sweet, and he was warm-hearted. Even the Mother Dong had a good impression of him.

"Young mistress, this young lad is not bad …"

Mu Chengfang was speechless.

Could it be that she had already disguised herself as a man and the Mother Dong still had to help her find a husband?

After settling down, everyone rested together. One of the Uncle Gong s brought some food over, and when he placed it on the table, he said to Mu Chengfang: "The county magistrate is not a place for you to enjoy your blessings, if you are dissatisfied with anything, it is still not too late to leave."

Mu Chengfang laughed, and said politely: "Thank you, Uncle Gong."

The Uncle Gong left without saying anything.

After eating, there was nothing to do. Mu Chengfang flipped through the County Records, wanting to get a better understanding of the local customs and practices in the Hushan County. After looking at it for a while, he felt sleepy, so she went to sleep.

The next morning, he was awakened by a loud noise.

The Mother Dong wanted Mu Chengfang to sleep longer, so she got up and opened the door, wanting the people outside to calm down. Unexpectedly, when the door opened, everyone in the town ran around, no one had time to rest and listen to what the Mother Dong had to say.

Mu Chengfang had woken up as well. Presumably, something big had happened.

Mu Chengfang felt that it would be better not to speak at this point of time.

Sun Jin looked at her, then squinted his eyes and said: "You are Hanshan County's new corona?"

The look in her eyes made Mu Chengfang feel uncomfortable.

When she was still a woman, she was still friends with Sun Jin in the end. Now that she had disguised herself as a man, all of the good feelings she had towards him disappeared.

But what was worth being gratified about, was that Sun Jin's reaction could be verified, he did not recognize Mu Chengfang.

"Yes, sir, what orders do you have?"

"How do you know I'm an adult?"

"I heard that an esteemed guest came from the county magistrate, so it is naturally the lord." Mu Chengfang said as he nodded his head and prepared to leave. When she turned around, A Yuan was looking for her.

"Hey, so you're here. Just in time, hurry up and come with me! Someone was killed at the city gate. Uncle Gong will be the first one to go, you better hurry up and catch up with him! "

Mu Chengfang nodded and quickly followed.

Sun Jin, however, returned to his room. Zheng Hang went forward and helped him spread his coat: "Master, with such a big matter, aren't you going to take a look?"

Hearing Sun Jin say that, Zheng Hang immediately reacted, his eyes wide open as he said: "That's right, Master! Do you remember Lu Kang? He is also here right now. "

Lu Kang had already resigned from his position for many years, and was currently in Hushan County trading. Although it looked like he was no longer worrying about the matters of the imperial government, hearing Zheng Hang's words, Sun Jin's eyes immediately narrowed.

Whenever he narrowed his eyes, the light in his eyes was as sharp as a falcon's.

"Go, send someone to keep an eye on him."

"Yes sir!"

When Mu Chengfang arrived at the edge of the moat, she did not see the Uncle Gong, but the sky was already bright, and many people were surrounding the moat.

A Yuan opened up a path for Mu Chengfang: "Fellow villagers and elders, please make way."

When Mu Chengfang got closer, she realized it was a gunny sack.

Initially, she had planned to directly go closer, but after thinking about the fact that the people from Uncle Gong were not around, she turned to A Yuan and asked: "Where are the people from Uncle Gong?"

"I don't know. He said he's already here. How do I know he isn't here at all?"

With such a thing happening, A Yuan was immediately stunned. He heard the eyewitnesses say that this was a case of a corpse being torn to shreds. The corpses were all cut into pieces and put into the gunny sack. He had been a constable for so many years, but this was the first time he saw someone being so cruel!

When Mu Chengfang got closer, she could only make her own move.

These "corpses" had long been a sight to behold, but when they were taken out, a clean cut was faintly discernible.

"These cuts are very neat. The murderer should be a strong man with some strength. Furthermore, there is not a single flaw and there are no traces of it. It seems like he must have killed him first before shattering his corpse. "

A Yuan didn't even dare to look at those things, and only said with a slightly trembling voice, "Who exactly is so cruel that they would actually do such a thing?"

Mu Chengfang stood up: "I don't know either. Oh right, A Yuan, do you know who the victim is?"

A Yuan nodded his head: "Before I came here, I've already asked around, and I heard that it's the most famous bag to the Hushan County, I think it's called Wang Weide!"

Wang Weide?

Mu Chengfang only felt that this name was extremely familiar. Closing her eyes, she immediately recalled that it was the person who made the trade with Sun Jin in the teahouse, the one who spoke with the accent of books.

Mu Chengfang frowned, then said: "A Yuan, help me find a weapon nearby."

"Alright."

Following that, the people from the yamen arrived one after another. There were four or five constables and Ji Mulang.

As soon as Ji Mulang arrived, he inquired about the situation.

Mu Chengfang explained one by one, her voice was clear and her tone was neither fast nor slow.

After Ji Mulang heard this, he roughly understood the situation.

Bao asked about the dead man and then killed him and crushed his body.

"But, since we've already killed them, why do we still need to dismember their bodies?"

Mu Chengfang said as her eyebrows knitted together, and for a moment, it was as if she had returned back to modern times. "This is what I find strange, if not for this pervert being abnormal, I'm afraid that he wouldn't be a normal person."

How much hatred could a corpse have?

The corpse was brought back to the yamen, but A Yuan was still unable to find the weapon.

When Uncle Gong came here, he immediately looked through it, and his opinion was no different from Mu Chengfang's.

Ji Mulang then asked Mu Chengfang, "Once you enter the yamen and become a corona, I still don't know how to address you."

Mu Chengfang almost blurted out, but upon thinking about how Sun Jin lived here, she casually said: "Master, you can just call me Little Chen."

Ji Mo Lang nodded his head, "Uncle Gong, why don't we leave this matter of dismembering corpses to Little Chen?"

Uncle Gong was slightly dissatisfied: "Master, he is a newcomer. If we hand such a big case over to him … …"

Ji Mulang interrupted, "It's fine, I believe him."

Mu Chengfang's gaze carried a trace of undetectable wisdom and sharpness. Facing such a corpse, she remained calm and at ease. It was hard to imagine that such a young man could remain so calm after witnessing such a shocking scene.

He felt that Mu Chengfang was a rare talent. Even though she was a newcomer, perhaps because of her calmness, she easily gave others a sense of trust.

Mu Chengfang's heart was slightly moved, and Uncle Gong no longer said anything.

However, he was still unhappy.

In his eyes, Mu Chengfang had just arrived. Even if he had some background, who knows if he was just showing off his talent?

When it was almost noon, A Yuan went out to take a walk, and had already brought the so-called murder weapon back.

This weapon was a huge blade, Mu Chengfang took it, and upon checking it, she discovered it did match.

At this time, Ji Mulang spoke up, "Little Chen, why don't you accompany me for a walk?"

"Yes, milord." Mu Chengfang followed respectfully. The two of them walked out of the county magistrate court one after another.

"If you have any thoughts, you can speak your mind. There's only the two of us here." The moment they left the county magistrate, Ji Mulang went straight to the point. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Although Uncle Gong is a bit stubborn, he is not a bad person after all. I'm afraid if you were to say it inside, you will also be worried that the Uncle Gong has a grudge, right? "
