Chapter 28 Incitement
This method of handling was obviously not in line with Gu Zuo's wishes. Although I heard from Jin Zongfeng that Bao Rong from the Kuaiji County Judicial Department who joined the army was "one of his own", but once things got out of hand, Dong County Lieutenant would take precautions in advance and think about it later.
It will be difficult to find Lieutenant Dong County.
As long as Lieutenant Dong County remains alive, Gu Zuo will have trouble sleeping and eating. To be honest, whether the civet cat is real or not and the conspiracy behind it has nothing to do with Gu Zuo.
This is why he took the risk and took the initiative to come out from the safe place of He Mansion. Zhang Mo must be persuaded to cooperate! The great god Dong Xianwei must be defeated!
"If it's to report to the official, how long will it take?" Gu Zuo considered his words.
"I'm afraid the county won't be able to handle the matter if it involves the empress. It will have to be reported to Chang'an. This won't be settled in a month or two."
"I'm afraid it's inappropriate. The civet cat was sent to the He Mansion on the initiative of Team Leader Ji. It will inevitably involve Lieutenant Dong. If this is reported to Lieutenant Dong, how can the case be investigated?"
Zhang Mo hesitated and said: "This is difficult. After all, Lieutenant Dong County is my direct supervisor in the execution room, and there is no way around it."
"Lieutenant Dong is an important suspect in this civet cat case. When the case is clarified in the future, he will definitely be judged for his guilt. It is not appropriate to report him!"
Zhang Mo asked thoughtfully: "What does worship mean?"
Gu Zuo observed the words and encouraged Zhang Mo: "After the Dong county captain is overthrown, who can take over?"
Zhang Mo spread his hands and said, "How do I know this?"
When Gu Zuo saw that the other party was pretending to be confused, he simply pointed it out enthusiastically: "Zhang Xingcao, you are in charge of the torture chamber in Shanyin. You are dedicated to your responsibilities, shrewd and decisive, diligent in your work, and considerate of the people. Everyone in the county admires you. To be honest,
It is a blessing for the people of Shanyin that you take over the county captainship! If another silverfish comes to harm our hometown, we Shanyin people will never agree!"
Zhang Mo pondered for a moment and sighed: "Thank you for the great love from the folks. I, Zhang Mo, am deeply grateful. However, my job as a criminal officer sounds like an official, but in fact I am an official. I am not in the mainstream. It's difficult!"
Gu Zuodao: "Although Mr. He has become an official, his old friends in the court are everywhere and his influence is still there. He sent a letter to Chang'an. Is it difficult to get an official position?"
Although Shanyin County Captain is only the ninth rank, the smallest official, for Zhang Mo, it is as difficult to cross as a chasm. There are two ways to become an official, one is to participate in the imperial examination, and the other is to be recommended by senior officials. Zhang Mo is sure
He couldn't pass the imperial examination, so he could only take the second path.
It is this second way that Gu Zuo proposed, recommended!
Zhang Mo stared into Gu Zuo's eyes and asked, "Is this what Mr. He means?"
Gu Zuodao: "Before I came, Jin Zongfeng told me that this case is very important to the He family. Anyone who can help will be rewarded by the He family. Recommending a county captain from the ninth grade, Zhang Xingcao believes that it is very important for the He family."
Mr. He, is this a problem?"
He didn't dare to fully vouch for it. Recommending Zhang Mo was something he thought up halfway, but Zhang Mo felt very at ease after hearing it in his heart. He immediately said: "In that case... I just thought of something."
With that said, Zhang Mo took a file from the desk and handed it to Gu Zuo. After Gu Zuo opened it and read it, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Can Cao Cao find the documents and confessions mentioned in it?"
Zhang Mo said: "This case is so outrageous that I was very angry at that time, but I had so little power... Well, I feel ashamed to say it. But I made preparations at the time and took the risk to keep these things. I didn't follow the rules."
Lieutenant Dong intends to burn it for the sake of the future. Since Mr. He is determined to kill the thieves and restore a prosperous world to Shanyin County, of course I will offer him."
Gu Zuo praised: "Xing Cao is really like an ancient sage!"
…
He rushed back to the He family's old house overnight and told Jin Chongfeng about the situation. Jin Chongfeng was overjoyed: "What he wants is the post of county captain? OK, I'll report it to Mr. Ming as soon as dawn!"
Although Gu Zuo was very talkative to Zhang Mo, he was still very uneasy at this time. He was afraid that Mr. He would not be able to think about it for a while and was worried about such illusory things as the purity of his name. He was unwilling to recommend Zhang Mo for this. That would be really serious. It makes people want to cry without tears.
Fortunately, Mr. He was not a rigid person, and readily agreed to recommend the book revision. After Jin Zongfeng came back and informed Gu Zuo, Gu Zuo felt relieved that he had not broken his promise to Zhang Mo.
Otherwise, if Dong Xianwei is removed and an enemy like Zhang Mo is created, his life in Shanyin will be really difficult.
After the matter on Zhang Mo's side was almost settled, another line of work followed. In the afternoon of the next day, Gu Zuo and Jin Chongfeng received Wei Changqiu, the visiting owner of the Daiyue Pavilion, in the small courtyard.
Wei Changqiu came alone at the invitation of Jin Chongfeng. Jin Chongfeng had only been in Shanyin for a short time and was not familiar with Wei Changqiu. Therefore, the name on the invitation post was Gu Zuo.
It was a blessing to be able to enter the He Mansion, no matter who invited him, so Wei Changqiu came happily and prepared to have a happy chat with Gu Zuo and Jin Chongfeng.
But as soon as the topic started, Wei Changqiu couldn't be happy anymore. The whole conversation was as if Jin Chong was trying a case and Wei Changqiu was on trial.
Although Jin Chongfeng had paid great attention to the wording of his inquiries and tried to be friendly and tactful, he hoped that Wei Changqiu could explain the details of his friend - not explaining was not enough. The essence of such a conversation was not the same as an interrogation. Not much difference.
The more Wei Changqiu talked, the worse his face became. He kept looking at Gu Zuo. Unfortunately, Gu Zuo just sat aside and occasionally came out to look around, but it was of no great use. The owner of the Daiyue Pavilion almost wanted to " I was furious, but I finally endured it.
Although Jin Chongfeng's cultivation level is the same as that of Wei Changqiu's, there is a high mountain behind Jin Chongfeng, a mountain that most people can only look up at. How dare they really fall out?
Jin Gongfeng got the result he wanted: Wei Changqiu's good friend lived in Dongyang, Wuzhou, his surname was Liu and his given name was Xuanji, and he established his own Hidden Sword Villa.
Wei Changqiu, who was forced to reveal his friend's situation, left the He family with a dark face, and ignored Gu Zuoli who was going out to see him off. Gu Zuo knew that he had offended someone badly this time, but he had no choice but to bow to the end behind him.
After getting the results, Jin Chongfeng wrote a letter immediately and sent people to drive directly to Dongyang, Wuzhou with fast horses.
Zhang Mo's reply came faster than expected, using extremely detailed and conclusive information to expose two old incidents of Lieutenant Dong Xian.
One case is that Dong Xianwei purchased 200 acres of good paddy fields by the Xijiang River five years ago. He apparently paid 1.6 million yuan, but in fact it was an IOU. So far, he has not paid a penny.
The second case also occurred five years ago. In the case of the murder of three members of the Liu family in the county, the suspected only son of the Zuo County Prime Minister was acquitted. At that time, the county magistrate had not yet fulfilled his duties, and the presiding judge was Dong County Lieutenant.
One case involves two county bosses!
