Chapter ninety-ninth
The frequent accidents in the county prisons still attract people's attention. After that, many officials have gathered, most of them come to hear the news. Perhaps they think this is strange. Why did Puxiang Zhenren be stabbed to death? Of course, some smart people think it is unusual, which is naturally unusual. After Wang Ningzhi took office, there are so many things that happened. Not to mention that the culprit behind the murder and setting fire some time ago has not been found out, but this is another incident. The one who died is Puxiang Zhenren.
After all, when it comes to Puxiang Zhenren, although the officials of Kuaiji County have not communicated, many have heard of his famous name.
Such a character died cowardly here, and they would have to be frustrated.
No one of the five jailers was involved in the accident. However, when Wang Ningzhi looked over, he would bow his head unconsciously. This was a symbol of ghosts in his heart. Wang Ningzhi naturally knew it. He glanced at the food box still in the corner, but pretended not to see it. He walked around the group of refugees for a decent circle or two, and there were still many people. Perhaps he had a close contact with a high-ranking official like a county magistrate, and they were all a little afraid and hurried together.
"Where is Puxiang's body? Take me over and take a look." Wang Ningzhi ordered. The prison guard immediately led the way in front and entered the county prison. He didn't go much far. In a slightly larger torture room, a corpse was lying there, with a shroud rolled up and his head was covered.
The corpse is tall, and the exposed clothes are indeed Puxiang's clothes, stained with stains.
There were some officials around Wang Ningzhi, including Li Yong, who did not need to run to the place, and most of them were not ordinary people. Many of the families behind them were poor families, and some were even children of aristocratic families. They were just subordinates or illegitimate children. They didn't look very good, but Wang Ningzhi, who made everyone unable to see his expression in front, knew that what happened here today would definitely be spread to those families with these people, and then spread everywhere... He was not afraid, or rather, this was his purpose.
He lifted the cloth covering the head of the corpse, revealing a blue-looking face, a bit ferocious. Moreover, because he had not taken a bath for a long time, his face was covered with dry soil, emitting a disgusting stench... He pulled it down again, and saw the wound on the corpse's chest, which was probably caused by a long knife.
"I woke up today and went to deliver breakfast to him, but I saw him dead in prison." The prison guard pursed his lips, his face turned pale, but he still said it.
Wang Ningzhi nodded to show his understanding, and pulled down the ornament on Puxiang Zhenren's body. One bone tooth should be the teeth of some kind of wild beast. He looked at it, then signaled the prison guard to make the place, raised his head, looked around the officials around him, and said in a deep voice: "Although Puxiang Zhenren is a death row prisoner and was sentenced to the death of the autumn queen, he was killed in advance, but it was not good for the prison guards to guard. Let's do this, and the monthly salary of the five of them should be deducted... Today's storm should gradually stop. Everyone goes back to do their official duties. If possible, they will go home to see it tonight. From tomorrow, I'm afraid they will be busy again."
...
The rain stopped in the afternoon, it was still cloudy and the air was still a little wet.
The ground is still wet and muddy, and I can't walk with footprints. It's easy to say that people often walk on the road, because they are crushed by the wheels, and they just get some mud and water, so they won't fall into it. In this case, it's a bit inappropriate to walk from the county town to Shanyin County. However, given the feeling of panic in my heart, Wang Ningzhi still planned to go back.
In short, he hadn't been home for only two days. He often did things like this in his previous life. Sometimes he lived in the office without going home for ten or half a month. However, after all, he was single at that time, now he had a home and a home. What made him feel even more stingy was that he had sex with Yu Nanzi last night. Even though for him, a man had no chastity, but it was reasonable that he was sorry for Xie Daoyuan, so he planned to go back and hug his little wife and sleep with him, at least to be at ease, so that he could face the many trivial matters that followed.
Yes, it's all trivial matters.
The big thing has passed, and I got news during the day. According to the plan, the Yixing Xu family has become history. Next, he will face the disasters in the county, the Taoist accused and fought back in the Five Doks of Rice Dao, etc. Even if Xu family was destroyed, it would be touched by someone. The handling was complicated and complicated, which was what he disliked the least.
The advantage of a ox cart is that no matter what path, it can always go smoothly and peacefully. The old ox walks slowly, and the wheels press two slender lines on the road. The road is covered with branches and leaves. Even on a certain section of the road, a tree is broken by its laziness and falls in the middle of the road, and needs guards to walk over and move away.
There was not only one ox cart. After all, there were more than a dozen guards accompanying him, and going home on the dirt road would be delayed. So he simply used four ox carts. Wang Ningzhi was alone and the others were crowded with him, which was a matter of the past.
The frogs croaked more and more, and after a while, the coachman in front shouted: "Erlang, you're home."
Wang Ningzhi lifted the curtain and did not get out of the car. He leaned out and said to the guard guarding the door of Tianzhuang: "Open the door, I'm back."
The door was a newly replaced door. The one in the past was a bit worn out due to night attacks, which obviously did not match the Wang family's lintel.
A squeaking sound came out, and all four ox carts entered the farm... The road in the farm was easy to walk, and the main road was covered with bricks and stones. Wang Ningzhi jumped down and stopped the slaves from calling people. He said to the two people who jumped out of the ox cart: "Liu Hu, Ge Shun, go to the last ox cart and drive with me."
Liu Hu and Ge Shun were different from others. They were covered with dried mud. After hearing this, they went to the last ox cart and drove the old ox to follow Wang Ningzhi... Wang Ningzhi is now a master of the family. Of course, the servants would not interfere in anything he did, and would not report to Wang Xizhi or Wang Xuanzhi like before. They took a long way to the backyard. Not far from Wang Xianzhi's courtyard, there was an unmanned courtyard. Although it was no one, people often went to clean it on weekdays, and they would not be covered with dust.
The ox cart stopped here.
Wang Ningzhi walked over, pulled the curtain from outside, and looked at the situation inside: there was only one lying down, tall, wearing only a single dress, and the bandage inside could be seen, exuding a strange smell. The person inside had already woken up, raised his head when Wang Ningzhi lifted the curtain, opened his mouth, and did not speak, but just stared at the bone teeth thrown beside him.
"No one disturbs me here. I will send a few smart servants to take care of you and take care of you... Restrain your temper. If something happens here, I will be the first to kill you!" Wang Ningzhi, who spoke, smiled, but there was a cold light in his eyes, indicating that this sentence was not a joke, "When you heal your injury, you will fulfill your promise."
