    Chapter 177 Fame in Jiangzhou

    How can a corpse be corroded in the shortest possible time?

    Modern people will tell you to use highly corrosive aqua regia.

    But in ancient times when technology was underdeveloped, they could only find another thing to replace it, and that was green vitriol.Green vitriol is a traditional Chinese medicine that can kill insects and reduce phlegm, but when heated and melted, it turns into a corrosive liquid similar to sulfuric acid, which is often used by thieves to corrode door locks.

    When Gongsun Zhuoyu was inspecting the corpse, he once smelled an extremely pungent smell. He didn't pay attention to it at the time, but later he realized that the unknown male corpse was probably Lei Quanshi, and he quickly realized it.

    In particular, Yu Shengquan's identity is that of a drugstore doctor. He can use his position to make corpse-dissolving water using green vitriol.

    Gongsun Zhuoyu walked back again, picked up the head of the corpse, pointed to the wounds on it and said to everyone: "There are several sharp scratches on the cheekbones of the head, probably made with a knife or a hairpin, the purpose of which is to destroyThe face of the corpse makes it impossible to identify its appearance, but this alone is not enough to conceal Lei Quan’s identity and gender.”

    He walked up to Yu Shengquan and kicked him without leaving a trace: "So the criminal used the traditional Chinese medicine green vitriol to make corpse water, which was used to corrode Lei Quan's body. After soaking it in well water for three days, the wound was exposed and rotten.Maggots will give people the illusion that they have been dead for dozens of days."

    All the details about Yu Shengquan were revealed by Gongsun Zhuoyu. He raised his head in panic, feeling as if someone had stripped him naked and exposed him naked in the sun.

    Doctors should be kind-hearted, but he kills people with such vicious thoughts.When the people outside saw that Yu Sheng had not refuted for a long time, they expected that he might have nothing to say, and they made a series of complaints.

    Most of the people in Jiangzhou have simple and honest customs. The last case of an Orion raping and murdering a good woman was shocking, but unexpectedly, another even more brutal case happened, which really deprived humanity.

    Gongsun Zhuoyu walked up to the high hall, took down the gavel tree heavily, and finally asked them in a deep voice: "Dan Qiu, Yu Shengquan, can you two plead guilty?"

    The two of them nodded in vain, despairing of all hope.

    Although Gongsun Zhuoyu's voice was not loud, it reached everyone's ears clearly: "In this case, the case of the corpse in the ancient well has been solved. Jiangzhou man Yu Sheng and his maid Danqiu killed Lei Quan, the prefect's housekeeper, and threw the body into the well. The crime isThere is no pardon, and he is now being held in prison to await judgment. The suspect Ling Shuang is acquitted and withdraws from the court!"

    With a majestic and low "mighty" sound coming from the surroundings, Dan Qiu and Yu Sheng were escorted away with pale faces. When the people outside saw the strange case, they couldn't help but clapped their hands and praised them, and there were endless cheers.

    After Gongsun Zhuoyu finished reviewing the case, he ran to Du Lingchun's side and said solemnly, "My lord, I'm glad you have lived up to your command."

    My mind is filled with fame and fortune.

    Promotion!Get rich!Go to the capital!

    Although Du Lingchun asked Gongsun Zhuoyu to find out the truth that day, he only gave him three days. It was a bit embarrassing, but the latter did it, and even got an extra day. It was not unwise.

    Although Du Lingchun didn't show it on his face, he was satisfied in his heart. He pointedly said: "Master Gongsun handles cases like a god. He is actually a pillar of our court. After my father returns to Beijing, he will definitely be commended by the Ming Dynasty."

    After he finished speaking, he glanced at the frightened Su Daofu and said as if he was joking: "Master Su, if you are not in good spirits, you should abdicate as soon as possible and give up the opportunity to young people."

    Gongsun Zhuoyu nodded frequently on the side, it should be given to young people, such as him, he is very young!

    Being an official is nothing more than chasing fame and fortune. Su Daofu got into the position of prefect, so he was naturally a little clever. He couldn't understand the meaning of Du Lingchun's words.When he heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he almost fell off his chair. His whole body felt as if he was struck by lightning: "Company... I'm the official... I'm the official..."

    Du Lingchun had no intention of caring about him, so he shook off his sleeves and walked out.Before leaving, he turned back and glanced at Gongsun Zhuoyu: "Our company will escort the rebels back to Beijing tomorrow to resume their duties. There will be a banquet at the Huxin Pavilion tonight. Sir Gongsun must come and have a glass of thin wine."

    Gongsun Zhuoyu raised his hands and saluted: "I will definitely be there."

    When Du Lingchun heard what he said, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he seemed to be in a good mood. Without saying anything else, he left the government office with his guards.

    Gongsun Zhuoyu kept watching him leave. When he could no longer see the figure, he stood up straight, secretly feeling excited in his heart.From what Du Lingchun said, he probably wanted to promote himself, so why worry about not having a future in the future!

    "Lord Gongsun..."

    Someone was tugging at his sleeve.

    "Lord Gongsun..."

    Still talking.

    Gongsun Zhuoyu finally came back to his senses and looked around, only to see the magistrate approaching with a shy smile, his eyebrows slightly raised: "Is there something wrong, sir?"

    The magistrate cupped his hands and bent his waist a few degrees: "In the past, I was too blind to see Mount Tai. I offended Lord Gongsun a lot. Your Lord has a lot. Don't be offended. Mr. Du, I hope you can give me some kind words."…”

    After saying this, he held Gongsun Zhuoyu's hand with a smile on his face, and stuffed a thick stack of banknotes without leaving any trace: "It's a small thing, not a sign of respect."

    Gongsun Zhuoyu's eyes lit up and he naturally smiled.Unexpectedly, at this moment, Cheng Yaojin appeared on the way. The system let out a chirp and sat on their clasped hands: "Dear, we don't want dirty money~"

    Gongsun Zhuoyu felt that the money was quite clean, and the banknotes were all brand new, not even ashes. However, because of the psychological shadow of being electrocuted, he felt a little unsure when he said: "You don't want it, I want it."

    The system flapped its wings: "Dear, the electric shock will be very painful~"

    Gongsun Zhuoyu: "..." It really hurts.

    Su Daofu was originally waiting for Gongsun Zhuoyu to reply, but who would have thought that the other party was silent for a long time, and suddenly he returned the money with an ugly look on his face, and waved his sleeves heavily: "I am a man with two sleeves, how can I accept bribes privately? Your Majesty, please come back."!”

    When Gongsun Zhuoyu said this, his heart was bleeding.This old bastard from the prefect is generous and even more greedy than himself. The stack of banknotes just now cost three thousand taels less. How long will it take, and he just pushes it back like this?

    Not only him, but also the prefect was in disbelief when he saw this.Gongsun Zhuoyu was famous for being brave enough to fish out copper coins from the frying pan, but he would actually push out the wasted money?!

    The prefect pointed at him, stammering and speechless: "Gongsun Zhuoyu, you!"

    Seeing that Su Daofu had lost power, it was strange that Gongsun Zhuoyu was afraid of him. He snorted, turned around and left.

    This old bastard is even more greedy than him, and he will go to jail sooner or later.

    Gongsun Zhuoyu thought that Du Lingchun would hold a banquet in the evening. It was probably because the officials below wanted to show their courtesy. There would be singing and dancing performances one after another, and it would be difficult to stop until midnight.Just as he was about to go back to his room to catch up on his sleep, the housekeeper suddenly ran over and stopped him.

    "Sir, please stay!"

    Every time Gongsun Zhuoyu heard him calling her, he always felt that nothing good was going on. He took a few steps back reflexively and looked warily: "Where is the lack of money again?!"

    The housekeeper was stunned when he heard this, and quickly reacted and said: "My lord has misunderstood. It's not that there is no money in the house, but that the people are gathering outside to see you!"

    Gongsun Zhuoyu was stunned for a moment: "Gathered outside? Are you going to hit me?"

    He hasn't done anything wrong recently.

    The butler corrected him: "Sir, I am not beating you, I want to see you."

    "I'll fight them when we meet," Gongsun Zhuoyu waved his sleeves in disdain, "If you don't go, I won't go. Tell them that I have important things to do and don't have time to see them."

    The housekeeper realized that he had not spoken clearly and quickly stopped him and explained: "Sir, people from several nearby villages have sent people to say thank you for helping them get rid of the bandits on Qingfeng Mountain and the tigers in the dense forest.I made a plaque to thank you! Follow me out quickly!"

    After saying that, without waiting for Gongsun Zhuoyu's reaction, he directly pulled him out of the door. As expected, a crowd of people gathered outside.There were gongs and drums, and a lion dance team seemed to have been invited. When Gongsun Zhuoyu appeared, someone lit a firecracker, which made a crackling sound.

    This was the first time Gongsun Zhuoyu saw such a scene in his life. He was startled and hid behind the housekeeper reflexively.Just as he was about to speak, an old man in Ge Yi, leaning on a cane and with gray hair, suddenly came out of the crowd. He bowed his hands to Gongsun Zhuoyu and said, "Old Liu Guanshan has met the magistrate."

    A thousand-year-old family, a century-old dynasty, every family will more or less have an old man who shelters from the wind and rain and has high prestige, and Liu Guanshan is one of them.When he was young, he passed the imperial examination, but later he couldn't bear the dangers of officialdom, so he stayed in school and became a teacher. He had great literary talent and could be called a famous person of his generation.

    Liu Guanshan is now seventy years old. He has been upright and philanthropic throughout his life, and is very popular among the people in Jiangzhou.Although he has no official position, it is no exaggeration to say that his words are more effective than the county magistrate.Even if the prefect Su Daofu comes, he still has to be treated lightly.

    Gongsun Zhuoyu naturally recognized Liu Guanshan. He had studied in Liu Guanshan's school when he was a child.Seeing this, he quickly came out from behind the housekeeper and helped Liu Guanshan up: "Old Liu, you have broken my command. You have come all the way and you don't know why?"

    Liu Guanshan stroked his beard: "Although Jiangzhou is a good place close to mountains and rivers, it has two major problems. The first problem is the bandits on Qingfeng Mountain. They plunder everywhere, not only blocking official roads, but alsotrade routes; the second problem is the man-eating tigers in the dense forest, which are entrenched in the mountains, and the people have been suffering from them, which can be called a heart disease!"

    Gongsun Zhuoyu probably understood why they came, and he only heard Liu Guanshan say: "However, your Excellency not only sent people up the mountain to suppress the bandits a few days ago, but also hunted and killed the man-eating tiger, which really did a lot of harm to the people of Jiangzhou.". We are all poor people and have nothing to give, so we made a plaque and gave it to you, in the hope that you would not refuse."

    After he finished speaking, two big men came forward holding a plaque covered with red silk. They pulled the silk ribbon to reveal four bright lacquered gold characters -

    "People from harm."

    Gongsun Zhuoyu had never been treated like this in his previous life, let alone this life.Why did he find so many masters? It was because when he went out for a walk, people would spit on him and throw knives. His personal safety was at risk.

    But he didn't expect that one day it would be his turn to send plaques?

    Gongsun Zhuoyu looked at the plaque back and forth, left and right, always feeling like he was dreaming. Seeing Liu Guanshan looking at him with a smile, he quickly said seriously: "Mr. Liu, I am from a county.Officials naturally have to consider the people under their jurisdiction. Killing evil tigers and killing bandits is just their job, and they really don't deserve everyone's praise."

    Liu Guanshan's eyes were kind and he said in an old voice: "I can tell you, I have watched you grow up. Let's not mention what happened in the past, but if you can seek the welfare of the people, you will be worthy of this sentence. Please accept me as a parent."bye."

    After he finished speaking, the people behind him all knelt down and their voices were like thunder: "Thank you, Master Gongsun, for eliminating harm to the people."

    Although Gongsun Zhuoyu tried his best to control it, his whole body was still like a flower. He was so beautiful that his nose was almost bubbled with snot. He barely maintained his composure on his face and stepped forward to help everyone up: "It should be, it should be."

    Gongsun Zhuoyu has always felt that the world is divided and united.Through hundreds of dynasties, looking at the future generations, there are no less than a hundred kings, and there are thousands of kings and ministers on the shores of their lands, so there is no shortage of him, a corrupt official who has gained all the reputation.

    Although Liu Guanshan is well-known in Jiangzhou, his reputation is accumulated over seventy years and earned through a life of poverty and uprightness.Gongsun Zhuoyu felt that he could not be as selfless as him, so he chose a different path. However, although he was prepared to be stigmatized, it still did not prevent him from enjoying the praise of the people.

    Shi Qianqiu and other masters hid behind the door, folding their arms and watching the fun.

    "This is the first time that your Excellency has been praised. Look at him, he is so happy that his eyes are gone."

    The author has something to say: Gongsun Zhuoyu: "The Highlight of Life!"!!!》
