A dignified county master cheated on his father for his political achievements, and ended up backfiring and defeating a strange case. This is the story we are going to tell
At the beginning of the story, Wang Decheng, the county master of Guhuang County, was sleeping soundly with his wife in his arms, when he suddenly woke up a hurried knock on the door. Wang Decheng was so angry that he cursed angrily: Who is it, disturbing my good dream! I heard the voice of Master Li Liang from outside the door: Master, get up quickly, the old man has found it! After hearing Li Liang's words, Wang Decheng got up from the bed with a wheel. The anger in his heart disappeared in an instant. Instead, he shouted happily and said: Wait, I will come soon.
Why is Wang Decheng so happy? It turned out that Wang Decheng's father Wang Sihai was lost a few days ago. Wang Decheng's mother left early, and his father brought him up with great difficulty. Wang Decheng was very filial to his father. Since he became the county magistrate, he has brought his old father with him to enjoy his happiness. Before Wang Decheng became the county magistrate, Wang Sihai often made do with steamed buns and pickles. The money saved was enough for Wang Decheng to study. Now his son is promising. After becoming the county magistrate in high school, Wang Sihai also paid a visit to his poor days before. He ate big fish and meat every meal, and he didn't have to work.
Wang Sihai ate very well, but his body couldn't stand it over time, and as he grew older, his brain was not very good, and he often lost everything. There was no choice but to find two maids to serve him. A few days ago, when Wang Sihai was going to watch the fun, he took two maids to the lively market. This person is like a child when he gets older. Wang Sihai is novel in everything he sees and buys everything he sees to try. It was afternoon to visit, and they had been out for a long time, so the two maids urged the old man to go back.
Wang Sihai also felt a little tired, so he agreed to go back to the yamen. Who knew that Wang Sihai suddenly had a stomachache halfway through the road and wanted to find a place to make it convenient. The two maids could only agree when they saw this. They couldn't follow him, so they asked Wang Sihai to find a place to solve the problem. The two of them were waiting on the roadside. But this wait took one or two hours. When the two maids found that something was wrong, they went to find someone, and Wang Decheng was no longer visible. The two maids were so scared that they hurried back to the yamen to tell Wang Decheng, and of course they were also unavoidable to punish them.
Wang Decheng mobilized all the constables in the yamen to find his father, but he couldn't find him after searching for two days. It’s not that the constable doesn’t care about looking for it. This is a great opportunity to improve oneself. Some constables mobilize their families to look for it, but they just couldn’t find it. This made Wang Decheng very worried about his father's safety, which made him not sleep well in the past two days. Now I heard the master say that my father had found him and was overjoyed. The two old couples sent Wang Sihai. It turned out that when Wang Sihai was about to get up that day, he suddenly saw a dark look in front of him and rolled down the slope. He fainted when he hit a stone in his head, which happened to be met by the two old couples. Seeing that Wang Sihai was unconscious, the two took him home.
When Wang Sihai woke up, the old couple asked: Brother, what is your name? Where do you live? Although Wang Sihai's mind is not very good, he is not completely confused. I told my two saviors about my life experience. Who knew that after hearing this, the two old men smiled and said: Haha, brother, have you been stupid? Look at how could you be the old man in the county? I think you are not completely well. You can cultivate here for a few days. It turned out that when Wang Sihai rolled down, the clothes on his body were broken. He was still unkempt and looked like a beggar, so the two old men couldn't. The most important thing was that the old man found that Wang Sihai's hands were covered with calluses. This looked like a worker, so how could it be the old man's hand?
Until Wang Decheng was in a hot topic when he found his father, the old couple decided to take Wang Sihai to the yamen to try their luck. Unexpectedly, the old man who helped his home to repair furniture these two days was really the old man in the county.Wang Decheng was very happy to find his father. After rewarding the old couple, he took Wang Sihai to the back hall. Wang Decheng saw that although Wang Sihai's clothes are torn and his face is a little haggard, his eyes are very energetic. It turned out that Wang Sihai was a carpenter before, and his skills were very good. He was very proud to use the money he earned with his hands to provide a county master. However, after his son became the county master, he did not let him touch carpenter work. He also said that the county master was so dirty that he had put his carpenter work all day long. If this was reported, where would he put his face?
Wang Sihai thinks that what his son said makes sense. As long as he is good to his son, he can do whatever he wants. So Wang Decheng did nothing but eat and drink all day long. After a long time, he was exhausted and his mind was not very good. However, in the past few days, he saw a lot of furniture at the old couple's home. Wang Sihai helped the old couple repair the furniture. Wang Sihai became energetic when he worked.
Wang Decheng thought about it after he understood the whole story. It is not a solution for my father to keep going like this. If he gets lost next time, he may not be so lucky. Since my father is too idle to live, it is better to do this. Wang Decheng said: Old man, I miss the woodworking toys you made for me when I was a child. You see, I have also gotten married. It won’t take long to have children and you will have grandchildren. Why not make the toys I played with when I was a child for your grandson? Then, let your grandson experience how happy I was when I was a child.
Wang Sihai's eyes shining when he heard this. Yes, when he was a child, he made toys for this kid. Some of his sons must have grandchildren. Wang Sihai immediately patted his chest and said: No problem, this matter is included in me, and I guarantee that my grandson's childhood is happier than other children, and then he immediately went to prepare for it. After Wang Decheng saw that his father had something to do and did not run around, he also let down a big stone in his heart.
solved his father's affairs. Just when Wang Decheng wanted to spend two days with his wife and wanted to have a child, trouble came again. It turned out that after a while, the censor Wu had to pass through their county. Unfortunately, many cases occurred during this period, and I had not finished handling it yet. It seems that I have to hurry up and handle the case, otherwise it would be unfavorable for the Censor to do things by myself, and my black hat would probably not be able to save it.
So Wang Decheng worked overtime to hear the case in the past two days, and finally handled all the backlog of cases before the Censor arrived. Just when Wang Decheng was thinking about how to receive the Censor well, trouble came.
This heavenly king Decheng just finished handling official duties, Wang Sihai pulled him to the backyard. After Wang Decheng arrived, he saw a lot of wooden toys in the backyard and was stunned and said: "You are all doing this." Wang Sihai said proudly: Of course, but recently I encountered a difficult thing, which was to make a better Trojan horse for my eldest grandson, but this ordinary wood is not of quality, so I just wanted to find some good wood and pay more attention to the people you know. After hearing this, Wang Decheng agreed.
When Wang Decheng left the backyard, his master Li Liang followed him. When Wang Decheng saw him, he said in a hurry: Master is not good, something is wrong! Tailor Zhang’s wife Chunfeng in the city was killed by someone, and Tailor Zhang was reporting the case in front of the hall. Wang Decheng was so angry that he heard Li Liang say that he was so worried about what he would do. A murder case actually occurred at this critical moment. If it is not arrested or handled well, or if the inspection censor cannot find out, he will definitely not have good results. Then he quickly went to the yamen lobby.
When we arrived at the lobby, Tailor Zhang was already kneeling down below. Wang Decheng asked: What is going on in Tailor Zhang? Let’s talk about it quickly. Tailor Zhang said sadly: Sir, I went to my friend Niu Er’s house to drink last night, and I drank until very late. When I wanted to go home, I never thought it would rain suddenly. I stayed at Erniu's house for one night, but who knew that when I arrived home the next morning, my wife Chunfeng was already lying in a pool of blood.Please ask the master to catch the murderer and give the villain justice!
Wang Decheng dared not be negligent now. After hearing Tailor Zhang's words, he led the constable and coroner to the scene. At this time, there were already many people watching the fun around Tailor Zhang’s house. When he saw the county master coming, he hurriedly gave up one. Wang Decheng came to the hall and saw a handsome lady lying on the ground. It seemed that she was Tailor Zhang's wife Chunfeng. Wang Decheng observed around him and saw that the house was in a mess, so he asked: Tailor Zhang, have you checked whether your property has been stolen? After hearing this, Tailor Zhang hurriedly said: Sir, the little one’s finances are robbed! It must be that the thief came to my house last night and was discovered by my wife. During the fight between the two, the thief brutally killed my wife!
Wang Decheng carefully observed the doors and windows of Tailor Zhang’s house, and found that there were no traces of being pried. He casually asked the people present: Who are Tailor Zhang’s neighbors? Did you hear any fighting and asking for help last night? At this time, a rough-looking man stood up and said, "My lord, the villain's name is Zhang Dazhe, who is the neighbor of Tailor Zhang." Last night, I didn’t hear anything coming from Tailor Zhang’s house. Wang Decheng was very upset after hearing this. There was no clue at all. What should I do? After asking how many people he was again asked, Wang Decheng took the constable back to the yamen and asked Tailor Zhang to wait for news and he would solve the case as soon as possible.
When Wang Decheng was in trouble with Tailor Zhang's case the next day. At this time, his father Wang Sihai came and asked: Son, I asked you a few days ago how was it? Wang Decheng was having a headache about Tailor Zhang's case now. Now he was in the mood to ask his father about Mutou, so he just asked Wang Sihai to send him away. As soon as Wang Sihai left, Tailor Zhang came to inquire about the progress of the case. Wang Decheng has made no progress at all now, and he sent him away in just a few words.
Seeing Wang Decheng, Master Li Liang was very upset and said: Sir, the villain sent a constable to secretly visit the people around Tailor Zhang, and then inquire about the news that Chunfeng got. After hearing this, Wang Decheng hurriedly said: What news, tell me quickly! Li Liang said: Sir, according to the inquiry of Chunfeng, this person is a bit unconditional. He relies on his own beauty to interact with several men. It’s just that Tailor Zhang is busy at the shop all day long and doesn’t know the situation. Chunfeng is closer to his neighbor Zhang Dazhuang and Tailor Zhang’s friend Niu Er. Moreover, I sent a constable to arrange hidden lines in each pawn shop in the city. As long as tailor Zhang provides a list of lost items, someone dares to exchange them, he will definitely be able to catch them.
Wang Decheng said after hearing this: I did a good job. If it were nothing in the past, but now the inspector and censor are about to come to us, this case cannot be delayed. This case will be delayed for one day and I will not be able to sleep well for one day! Since Chunfeng was very close to Zhang Dazhuang and Niu Er during his lifetime, he brought them to question him, and Li Liang went there.
Not long after a while, Niu Er and Li Liang were taken to the yamen. Wang Decheng asked: Zhang Dazhuang Niu Er heard that you were quite close to Chunfeng before her death, but is there any such thing? After hearing this, both of them said in unison: Sir, this is nothing, someone must have slandered us. Zhang Dazhuang said: Sir, our two families are neighbors. It is normal for this neighbor to borrow something to help, so that those who are interested can spread rumors when they see it. Niu Er also said: Sir, I am not only a friend but also a cooperative relationship. The villain is in the cloth business. He always takes some cloth for Tailor Zhang to see, which makes outsiders talk. Besides, the villain and Tailor Zhang have been drinking at my house that night, and they have no time to kill Chunfeng!
Wang Decheng's thoughts after hearing this, what both of them made sense. Now there is no evidence and cannot be convicted of the two. It seems that they can only release the person first and wait for any news on the bank and pawnshop. In addition, Wang Decheng also hopes that the Censor will come later, so it is best to solve the case by himself before coming. Wang Decheng did not sleep well that night.
When the next day, Wang Sihai came to ask about the wood again. Wang Decheng made his father very irritable. Now he was furious. His father was still causing trouble for himself behind his butt. It seemed that it would be impossible not to tell the old man. He said: Mr., I asked a friend who knows it, and said that the Wulong Mountain in our county is full of good wood. Let's do this. I'll find two constables and you to cut two of them. After hearing this, Wang Sihai was overjoyed and said: Why are you waiting for now? Wang Decheng had no choice but to let the two young and strong constables go with him.
Wang Decheng thought that there were twenty or thirty roads in the city in Wulong Mountain, and he had to cut down trees. It would take five or six days to go back and forth, which would allow me to purify for a few days. After the old man left, Wang Decheng kept handling Tailor Zhang's case, but three or four days had passed in a flash, and there was no clue at all. Wang Decheng's heart is now cold. According to his reliable information, it will take two days for the Censor to be here. If he cannot solve the case within these two days, he will probably not be able to eat better than the child.
Just when Wang Decheng was so anxious, Wang Sihai and the two constables came back. After seeing Wang Decheng, Wang Sihai cursed: You are a scam, what kind of place is Wulong Mountain that produces good wood? I wandered around the mountain for a long time to find a good wood. It took the boss's effort to transport this tree, but it's worth the money. Guess what I dug under the tree? Wang Decheng was in the mood to guess riddles now, so he casually said: What else can be dug out under the tree besides the roots? Could it be that gold can be dug out?
Wang Sihai smiled and said, "Haha, that's right. When we were digging a tree, we dug a box from under the tree. This box contained a lot of valuable packing and silver. As he said that, he handed it to Wang Decheng a box. Wang Decheng was puzzled and found that the box given by his father opened it and saw a lot of valuable jewelry, and these things looked familiar. Suddenly, Wang Decheng remembered that these things were the lost property of Tailor Zhang. It seemed that the thief stole the money and buried the property under the ground of a big tree. By chance, his father dug it out.
Wang Decheng asked someone to call Tailor Zhang to identify it. After Tailor Zhang arrived, he saw the jewelry in the box and immediately cried and said: Sir, that's right, this is all sold by me for my wife, it's all here, but how could there be Niu Er's things here? After hearing this, Wang Decheng asked: What, Niu Er's things? Tailor Zhang took out a jade bead and said: Sir, I have seen this jade pendant at Niu Er. How could Niu Er's home run here?
Wang Decheng immediately ordered the arresting Niu Er to bring it. After Niu Er arrived, he saw the things in the box and his face turned pale in an instant, and he trembled and told the truth about the matter. It turned out that Niu Er is a lustful person. When he saw that Tailor Zhang's wife was beautiful, he made friends with him. Moreover, Niu Er also did this cloth business, so he often went to Tailor Zhang's house under the name of what he did. Chunfeng is not a serious woman. Seeing that Niu Er is interested in her, she acted quite proactively. Not long after, the two of them got into a fool. Chunfeng and Niu Er are also looking for fresh and exciting together, but Niu Er is different. He was deeply fascinated by Chunfeng and insisted on walking away with Chunfeng and living somewhere else.
That night, Niu Er invited Tailor Zhang to his house for a drink, just to get Tailor Zhang drunk, and he and Chunfeng flew away. After Niu Er got Tailor Zhang drunk, he came to his house on the rainy night. He originally wanted to take Chunfeng away, but unexpectedly he heard Chunfeng's voice with another man. Niu Er was furious and broke into Chunfeng's room angrily. After seeing Niu Er, the man in the room was frightened and raised his pants and ran away. Niu Er didn't care about chasing the man and asked Chunfeng who he was. Chunfeng said disapprovingly: It's not a person who likes to steal fish like you.
Niu Er asked angrily: Then the vows you and me are all lies. Chunfeng said disapprovingly: Of course, this is not true if you make a show.Niu Er felt that he had been deceived, and his eyes were red in anger. He beat Chunfeng up. Of course, Chunfeng was not willing to be outdone, and he also took a ruthless move on Niu Er. During the fight, Niu Er took out a dagger and stabbed Chunfeng in the chest. Seeing that Chunfeng fell to the ground and couldn't get up, Niu Er was very scared, so he searched all the valuable things in Tailor Zhang's house and put them in a small box, and ran out during the rainy night.
After returning home, he pretended to be nothing. After the incident the next day, Niu Er felt that the things he stole from Tailor Zhang's house last night were not safe to put in his house. If the county master searched his home, it would be finished. He put his valuable things in the box and secretly hid them under a big tree on Wulong Mountain. He wanted to wait until the matter was over and then retrieved them, but he didn't expect the county master and father to dig it out.
Now the truth of the case has been revealed, and Wang Decheng also put a big stone in his heart. Fortunately, his father, otherwise who would have thought that the murderer was Niu Er. Okay, this story is over. Who is the second man with Chunfeng? Everyone can leave a message in the comment section to discuss it. Finally, don’t forget to Changan like and follow and support. See you next story!
