When Fang Fu stepped into the inner hall, he felt three sharp eyes cast on him.
The one wearing the red robe should be the governor of the government, embroidering Yunyan, um, it's a fourth-rank officer... The uncle with the silver gong embroidered on his chest, hey, is organized by the beating men... I'll go, This girl is so good-looking and beautiful, isn't she... Married
Glancing at his chest again, Xu Qi'an calmed down a lot.
He bowed his head quickly, showing a very humble gesture.
Chen Fu Yin sat high in a large chair, his face was expressionless, and his tone of interrogation was quite majestic:
"Xu Qi'an, when you were imprisoned three days ago, you didn't say that you had important clues. You know the consequences of concealing it and not reporting it."
The old fritters in the officialdom, even if they are anxious to die, never ask for clues, but psychological pressure.
Being able to come here means that the plan has been successful in half, Xu Qi'an is still calm: "Sir, just now, the Erlang Xu family came to me, and I asked him for the file."
Be honest first.
The three present knew Xu Xinnian, not because he was famous, but as Xu Pingzhi's eldest son, the three sponsors would naturally investigate.
"What does this have to do with the clue you mentioned?" Chen Fuyin asked.
"Caomin deduced the truth of the case from the file..."
"Wait," Chen Fuyin interrupted him, leaning forward slightly: "From the file?"
It's not what he thought.
"I've solved the case." Xu Qi'an nodded, indicating that was the case.
Chen Fuyin suppressed the idea of calling someone to send this kid back to the prison, and his face was serious: "Tell me, but this official reminds you that if you say anything wrong, two hundred boards can beat you to pieces."
"The robbery of tax silver is actually not the work of monsters, but man-made."
In a word, three people were shocked.
Chen Fu Yin slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Bullshit, come here, drag it down, and punish two hundred people with the stick."
It is almost a foregone conclusion that the monster robs the tax and silver, which is the consensus of the three sponsors.
If he had expected Xu Qi'an to give valuable clues before, he was completely disappointed now.
It's nothing more than the wild and paradoxical remarks of a hairy boy jumping over a wall.
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up slightly, and he waved away the yamen who rushed in, "Master Chen, don't be impatient."
He turned his eyes and stared at Xu Qi'an, burning with scrutiny and anticipation: "Tell me about it."
This Chen Fu Yin was a little grumpy... Xu Qi'an knew that it was time for him to behave, "According to the statement of the city gate guard, my second uncle entered the city at 2:00, and the team escorting the tax and silver arrived at 1:00. Guangnan Street, at this time, a strange wind suddenly picked up, and the horses were frightened and rushed into the river."
He tried his best to keep his tone neither humble nor arrogant, to appear calmer and to increase his persuasiveness.
Chen Fu Yin nodded: "This is the reason why we concluded that this is a monster lurking in the river, waiting for an opportunity to snatch the tax silver."
"No!" Xu Qi'an retorted loudly: "The demon wind is just a blindfold, and the explosion in the river is also a blindfold. In fact, it is to let you ignore a flaw, a fatal flaw."
Chen Fuyin hurriedly asked, "What is the flaw?"
The middle-aged man took a listening gesture.
The girl in the yellow skirt bit the candied fruit without chewing, and those eyes overflowing with spiritual energy stared at Xu Qi'an with great interest.
They read the file over and over many times, and they knew everything about the incident, but they didn't notice any flaws.
"My second uncle escorted 150,000 taels of tax silver, how many jins do you dare to ask, how much is 150,000 taels of silver?"
The middle-aged man had a stiff face, while the girl in the yellow skirt tilted her head and didn't come back for a long time.
Chen Fu Yin said displeased: "If you have something to say, don't betray it."
Xu Qi'an originally wanted to give a hint and let several adults explore this huge flaw by themselves, but it seems to be self-defeating.
The quick calculation ability is a bit low, you ancient people... Xu Qi'an immediately said: "It's 9,375 pounds."
According to the mass conversion formula of this world, a pound of sixteen taels and 150,000 taels of silver is 9,375 pounds.
The middle-aged man frowned, he vaguely grasped something.
The girl in the yellow skirt frowned: "What does this mean?"
Her voice was as crisp as a silver bell.
It shows that you are not very smart Yazi!
Xu Qi'an said, "How long is the distance from the city gate to Guangnan Street?"
The middle-aged man replied, "Thirty miles."
"How many downtowns did you pass through on the way?"
"... four."
"How's it going?"
"Ranma... .." The middle-aged man suddenly widened his eyes and stood up abruptly.
He widened his eyes hard, revealing a stunned expression of 'It turned out to be this' and 'It turned out to be this way'.
After three days of tracking and hunting down the monsters, they found nothing, and the experienced watchdog had realized that he might be going in the wrong direction.
But I don't have a clear idea in my mind, so I didn't pay attention to it after being denied before.
Chen Fu Yin's scalp was a little numb, because he still didn't hear anything wrong, it seemed that his governor was particularly ignorant.
Chen Fu Yin glanced at the girl in the yellow skirt and felt a lot more balanced.
The girl in the yellow skirt said depressedly, "Where is the problem?"
The middle-aged man was a little excited: "The time, the time is not right."
"Guangnan Street is 30 miles away from the South City Gate. With the strength of the horse's feet, we have to pass through four busy markets along the way. Entering the city at 2 o'clock, it is impossible to reach Guangnan Street at 1 o'clock."
He was influenced by preconceived ideas, thinking that it was a monster who stole the tax and silver, and after Xu Qi'an's deliberation, he immediately chewed out a problem.
"But the tax silver was indeed delivered to Guangnan Street at the time of the hour. At that time, there were many people who saw horses rushing into the river. It cannot be fake." The girl in the yellow skirt said crisply.
Chen Fu Yin nodded with satisfaction, and agreed: "What's the solution?"
This... The middle-aged man was stunned and looked at Xu Qi'an subconsciously.
"Because the escort is not silver at all." Xu Qi'an said loudly.
"Ridiculous!" Chen Fuyin retorted: "Not to mention whether your second uncle and the escort soldiers have eyes, the file contains the confessions of the people present at the time, the horses rushed into the river, and the silver of the white flowers rolled into the water."
He shook the dossier in his hand: "Is this also fake?"
"Seeing is not necessarily believing... Caomin is willing to solve the adults' doubts in person."
Chen Fu Yin waved his hand, indicating that he was free.
Xu Qi'an dragged the shackles to the table, poured water to grind, spread out the rice paper, and wrote crookedly.
"Sir, please prepare the things on paper according to Caomin's request." After writing, he handed the rice paper to Chen Fu Yin.
Chen Fu Yin took the rice paper and glanced at it, confused.
"Let me see." The girl in the yellow skirt came over to join in the fun, and stretched out the snow-white soft weed to take the rice paper.
Then confused.
"..." Li Yuchun, a middle-aged man, glanced at the paper, made an expressionless face, flattened the folded corner of the rice paper without leaving any traces, and handed it to Chen Fu Yin.
