Tan Lingyin silently put the golden bricks back. The look of the magistrate made her feel a little guilty.

Tang Tianyuan stared at her, "Tan Lingyin, this official has always been curious, what is your background?" A girl with poetry and calligraphy in her belly and a deep knowledge of calligraphy, it seems that the girl's family background should be good. But Tan Lingyin's words and deeds are unscrupulous, sometimes out of line, and seeing money... These have nothing to do with words like "girlfriend". In short, this person is full of a sense of contradiction. At first glance, it is very inconsistent, but after getting along with her for a long time, I feel that this is also a unique temperament.

Tan Lingyin touched her nose, "I'm from the Great Tang Dynasty in the east, and I want to go to the west to worship Buddha and ask for scriptures."

"..."

Tang Tianyuan decided not to go in circles with her, "Don't think that this official doesn't know why you are relying on me to be your master. I don't care who ordered you to come here, if I want to attack this batch of gold, that is trying to steal the national treasury, don't Speaking of you, even your younger brother will get in. You can figure it out for yourself."

"Don't, don't..." Tan Lingyin was a little anxious, "if you have something to say..."

"Well, let me ask you, who is the mastermind behind you?"

"The master behind me is myself," Tan Lingyin said. Seeing that he didn't believe it, she dug out the gold mine from her purse. "Really, look. I picked it up from Tianmu Mountain."

This is an important clue. Tang Tianyuan held the gold mine and asked seriously, "Where did you get it from?"

"This..." Tan Lingyin scratched her head, very embarrassed, and then explained the origin of the gold mine to him. It was dark and dazzling that day, and she was sleepy and confused again, and she really couldn't remember which hilltop the gold mine was from.

It was the first time Tang Tianyuan heard of such a strange thing. If someone said that, he would definitely not believe it, but if it was Tan Lingyin, he actually didn't think it violated the peace at all.

He put away the gold mine and frightened Tan Lingyin with a straight face, "Anyway, don't worry about this anymore, otherwise the consequences are not something you can bear."

Tan Lingyin was a little unwilling, "Don't be like this, we can look for it together, and after we find it, we can discuss how to divide it," she suddenly lowered her voice, "Actually, you don't have to tell the emperor, right, after you find it..."

Tang Tianyuan interrupted her, "I want this official to deceive you?"

"My lord, you didn't come here specifically for this, did you?"

I came to find you, and then I jumped into this pit. Tang Tianyuan squinted at Tan Lingyin, he didn't want to tell the second person this painful memory.

Tan Lingyin only regarded him as the default. It turned out that the county magistrate came here specifically to find Huáng Jin, so he could not share the spoils with him. Tan Lingyin rolled her eyes, thought about it, and said, "Then, I can help you find it too. I also want to serve the court." After finding it, she was not sure she could secretly get some, and even if she couldn't, she could take the opportunity to follow up with her. The court asks for rewards, and the court will definitely not begrudge that reward.

Tang Tianyuan could naturally see what she was thinking, and he didn't expose her, just said, "Alright, you just need to help this official look after Zhou Zhengdao."

Tan Lingyin nodded hurriedly, rubbed her hands together and her eyes lit up, "Okay, wait and see, okay?"

Tang Tianyuan suddenly asked, "Aren't you a local?"

Tan Lingyin was stunned, "Huh?"

"There are very few people in this area who speak the official language so smoothly."

"Ah, me, I came here as a refugee."

Such shameless people, it is easier to lie than to drink water. Tang Tianyuan didn't believe it, didn't ask, anyway, she didn't tell the truth. He waved his hand and let Tan Lingyin take her ugly son out first.

☆、19 goat

After Zhou Zhengdao came back, he discovered that the young county magistrate had put him together.

Sun Yuanwai hurriedly came to him, and wanted him to help introduce the county magistrate. Money was not a problem.

Zhou Xiancheng and Sun Yuanwai had jiāoqíng. The day after he came to Tongling County, Sun Yuanwai came to visit him. The two are not dating, so there is no need to sneak around, the county magistrate must have paid attention from that time.

Therefore, as soon as he found out that Sun Bufan was a murder suspect, the county magistrate was not in a hurry to open the hall, but sent him Zhou Zhengdao away first. Otherwise, as the county magistrate, he would always be able to help the Sun family by speaking in the hall, and maybe he would be able to save Sun Bufan a living.

This incident was too sudden, they were not prepared at all, and they were caught off guard. Zhou Zhengdao first met Bai Jingsiwen, magistrate of Tang County, and thought he was a melon, but now it seems that although the boy is young, he is really a ruthless character, and his wrists are strong enough.

However, still young. According to the rules of the game in the officialdom, in order to be a stable official in a place, you must first establish a good relationship with the local gentry. Sun Yuan's family had a great career and was a well-known figure in Tongling County. The Tang magistrate didn't deal with it well, but instead, he directly sentenced his son to death without showing any respect. How could Sun Yuanwai not hate him? In the future, if he joins the local gentry to make trouble every day, will Tang Feilong still have a birthday? Sooner or later it was run on.

But then again, it's better to be young when you are young. Zhou Zhengdao thinks that this magistrate Tang is smart enough to be a good candidate. Moreover, the young man is warm-hearted and eager to win. At this critical moment, he only needs to give Tang County Magistrate a little bit of advice, knowing the interests, this small County Magistrate will probably be used by him.

With such a wishful thinking, Zhou Zhengdao found Tang Tianyuan.

"My lord, I think that Sun Bufan's case needs to be discussed in the long run."

Yo, here we come. Tang Tianyuan's eyebrows moved slightly. He knew in his heart, "What is the opinion of Zhou Xiancheng?"

Zhou Zhengdao stroked the goatee beards and said, "I'm going to say something unpleasant to the ears, please don't blame my lord. When my lord first arrived here, I don't have much foundation. If you want to do a good job in this county, the most important thing is to have a relationship with a county. I hope everyone can live in peace with each other. The Sun family is a prominent local family, and the family members outside Sun are wealthy, so they can be regarded as the top gentry in this county. Not to mention in Tongling County, even with the adults of Futai, he can speak well. Now Sun Bufan has committed a crime The matter, this is just right for the adults, why don't the adults take this opportunity to sell the Sun family a face, Sun Yuanwai will definitely be grateful to the adults from now on. After surrendering to him, the adults will be settled in the world of Tongling in the future. "

Oh, it has something to do with the prefect, and I don't know if Zhou Zhengdao is a bully this week or if it really has something to do with it. Tang Tianyuan shook his head and said, "But that Sun Bufan personally confessed to the murder in front of everyone's eyes, and this matter may be difficult to overturn."

"It doesn't have to be overturned. Sun Bufan's murder had a reason, and after weighing it up, it's okay to avoid the death penalty and sentence him to exile.

Think beautiful. Tang Tianyuan sneered inwardly, with a calm expression on the surface, "This is not a trivial matter, this officer needs to think again."

"My humble job is for the sake of the adults, I just ask the adults not to think too much, and misunderstand my sincerity."

"Xianxian Zhou has been thinking too much. This official arrived for the first time, and there were many things that he didn't think carefully about. This official is very pleased that Zhou Xiancheng can point out bluntly."

"Don't dare."

Zhou Zhengdao saw that the young county magistrate was still on the road, so he left satisfied.

Tang Tianyuan held his chin in thought, thinking about the situation he was facing now.

His father is the eldest official of the whole world, and he himself is an imperial envoy, who patrols the hunters on behalf of the sky, so people like Zhou Zhengdao and Sun Yuanwai, in Tang Tianyuan's opinion, can only be regarded as small shrimps, or they are slapped. He was not afraid to offend them. However, when he is doing things on other people's territory, it is best not to offend people easily, otherwise it will be troublesome for these little shrimps to stumble.

Of course, you can't bend the law for personal gain.

One more thing is tricky. Listening to what Zhou Zhengdao said, Sun Yuanwai seemed to have some connections with the prefect of Chizhou. If this is the case, if the prefect comes again, things will be even more troublesome.

Fortunately, no matter what, as long as the county magistrate doesn't let go, there is little chance that Sun Bufan's case will be commuted. Because the death penalty is a serious crime, death penalty cases are always reported directly to the province, and then reviewed by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple. That is to say, the state government is not at all eloquent about the death penalty cases tried by the county under its jurisdiction. If you want Sun Bufan to survive, unless you can bribe the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple. It's almost impossible.

Having made up his mind, Tang Tianyuan was not in a hurry to reject Zhou Zhengdao. He decided to delay for a while to explore the details of the various forces in Tongling County.

After spending a long time thinking about it, Tang Tianyuan was also a little tired. He pinched his forehead, stood up, went out the door, and walked back to the inner house.

Before entering the yard, he heard conversations coming from inside. Tang Tianyuan didn't want to eavesdrop on other people's words, but when he heard their "Tan Lingyin" long and "Tan Lingyin" cooing, he unconsciously slowed down and stood outside the door to listen.

In the yard, Cantaloupe was complaining to Sydney about Tan Lingyin. The reason is that cantaloupe likes to drink goat's milk, so Qian asked a handyman in the kitchen to get a bowl of fresh goat's milk to cook and eat every two or three days. Today the handyman got goat milk, put it in the kitchen and went out for a while, but when he came back, he found that the goat milk was gone. The handyman asked a few people, and some people said that they saw Master Tan walking away with a bowl of things, and it happened that Cantaloupe came to look for goat milk, and the handyman told Cantaloupe.

Cantaloupe felt strange, so she went to the South Study to find Tan Lingyin. When went, happened to see her feeding the dog with goat milk.

"Tell me, is there such a thing as abusive people!" Cantaloupe's voice involuntarily increased, obviously lingering anger.

Sydney comforted, "She thinks she doesn't know it's yours. I think Master Tan is very nice, shouldn't it be intentional?"

"You, you, what benefit did she give you, so that she bought you off?"

"No..."

"Actually, I can't blame you. With Tan Lingyin's ability, even the young master will be subdued by her."

Tang Tianyuan frowned when he heard it outside. He was at odds with Tan Lingyin, how could he be subdued by her. He was more or less able to subdue her.

Cantaloupe is a little unreasonable. When encountering such a thing, she must have had a fight with Tan Lingyin. Tang Tianyuan felt uncomfortable for a while when she thought of Tan Lingyin being scolded by Cantaloupe's nose. He wanted to scold Cantaloupe, but he felt that eavesdropping was disgraceful; he wanted to comfort Tan Lingyin, but he felt that the two of them didn't seem to be that good; he thought of Tan Lingyin feeding the dog with goat milk, which was ridiculous; It's even more ridiculous to think of her ugly dog ​​with an ugly style.

A lot of messy thoughts passed through his mind like a lantern, and when Tang Tianyuan found out, he was already standing outside the door of the South Study.

South Study is also an independent courtyard, but the courtyard is very small. Tan Lingyin complained when she first moved in. At that time, Tang Tianyuan suggested that she move back, and she immediately shut up.

Now that the gate of this small courtyard is locked, Tang Tianyuan came at an untimely time. He was about to leave when he suddenly saw the door being pushed open, a small head sticking out from the door, looking up at him curiously. Tang Tianyuan squatted down, tapped it lightly with a folding fan, and asked with a smile, "Where's Tan Lingyin?"

"I'm here... baa..." A puzzling voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Tang Tianyuan was startled, thinking to himself, this woman has become nervous again, learning how to call a sheep. But she learned a lot. But no matter how much he learns, it's impossible to express goat's milk... He touched his nose and found that his thoughts were really vulgar.

"Sir, what do you have to do with me?" Tan Lingyin asked when she saw that the magistrate was only thinking about something with her head down.

Tang Tianyuan stood up, turned his head and was about to speak, when he saw what was in front of him, he was startled again.

Tan Lingyin actually led a real sheep. The goat, very fat, black and white, with curved horns, was looking at him seriously at the moment.

Tang Tianyuan pointed at the goat with his folding fan, "What are you doing?"

"I want to nourish Tangtang's body." Tan Lingyin said, handing the rope to Tang Tianyuan, she took out the key to open the door herself.
