Chapter 1213 Thoughtfulness (for the Leader, I Am Waiting for More Updates!)

Jiang Wang had no intention of taking the so-called "talisman" with him with him.

That mysterious physiognomist was an existence that he still couldn't see through or understand at all. He didn't know whether he was kind or malicious. I don’t have the confidence to play against such a strange and powerful player.

All in all, it's better to be cautious.

If you can't afford to offend, you can always hide.

They met Lin Youxie outside the town gate, and they both flew to Zhaoheng City.

After Huang Yixing's death, Gao Shaoling, the governor of Chiwei County, is now temporarily in charge of Hengyang County's government affairs.

Many officials in Hengyang County were promoted by Huang Yixing himself, and a large part of them were Jiuyang bureaucrats. Qi Ting did not interfere in this matter, and indeed gave him the authority that a governor should have. From this, it can be seen that Qi Ting is really confident enough in the situation in Yangdi.

The former Prime Minister Yan Ping planned to make peace and destroy him, and the fierce massacre of Chongxuan and Chu Liang was defeated in one battle. Yang Di was indeed in the bag. Since being incorporated into the territory, there has never been any trouble.

Only this time, Qi Ting did not let the bureaucrats of Hengyang County temporarily take over the position of the town governor, but instead transferred the nearby Chiwei County town governor Gao Shaoling to take charge of it. The significance of this is thought-provoking.

The reason why this candidate was Gao Shaoling instead of Tian Antai, who was also adjacent, and the fact that Gao Changhou was tortured in front of the Ancestral Temple was obviously an important influencing factor.

Everything in the world is interconnected, and when a stone falls into the water, the ripples will turn thousands of times.

This was the first time Jiang Wang saw Gao Shaoling.

He was wearing full official uniform, with his hair in a bun hidden in his official hat, and even his belt was stuck in the right place. His whole person had a very serious temperament.

He looks completely different from the temperament of the young master of the Gao family.

Frankly speaking, Gao Zhe is a bit frivolous. Of course, this kind of frivolity pales in comparison to his brother who lost his inheritance rights.

At this moment, in the county guard's mansion in Zhaoheng City, Gao Shaoling was sitting in the chair, looking meticulous: "...That's the general situation. I have already given instructions to the two arresters. What are the needs of Hengyang County in handling the case?" We must do our best to cooperate.”

Although Jiang Wang and Lin Youxie were ordered by the emperor to investigate the case, they had to visit the county government first when they arrived at the border. When investigating cases in Hengyang County, there are too many areas that require cooperation from the county government.

Moreover, Gao Shaoling is also in charge of this county temporarily, and has no conflict with them. On the contrary, they have common interests - if handled properly, Hengyang County is the capital of the old Yang Kingdom, and the governor of Hengyang County is much more important than the governor of Chiwei County.

This trip was mainly led by Jiang Wang, so it was Jiang Wang who came to communicate: "Let's go to the site to check if there are any needs before disturbing the county government."

"Easy to say, easy to say." It wasn't until this time when he was seeing off the guests that Gao Shaoling showed a smile: "You and Gao Zhe are friends, please don't ever meet me."

Jiang Wang was polite and went out with Lin Youxie.

He and Gao Zhe did have a relationship for a while, but their personalities were not particularly compatible and they had already faded away. Of course, there has never been any bad relationship. If anything, they can be considered fair-weather friends.

It's sad to say.

The Sheriff's Mansion in Zhaoheng City was rebuilt from the original Yangguo General's Mansion, which was also the former Tianxiong Ji family's old residence.

Although it has been converted into a county governor's residence, the chilling atmosphere is still faintly detectable.

As for the former Yang Palace, it is still preserved there as the emperor's palace.

Looting after a great war is almost a rule. After fighting to the death, soldiers need to vent their emotions. That kind of chaotic situation is often beyond human control.

After a battle that destroyed the country, Yang Palace was still unscathed. Ji Tu's ability to run the army can also be seen from this.

"You haven't been in Zi for a long time, and you have close friendships with Yan Fu and Li Longchuan. But your friendship with Gao Zhe doesn't seem to be that deep. Why?"

After walking out of the Sheriff's Mansion, Lin Youxie suddenly asked: "Although the Gao family is not as good as the Yan family and the Li family, the resources he can mobilize as the young master may not be worse than those two."

Jiang Wang frowned: "Why do you ask this?"

Gao Zhe, before becoming the young master of the Gao family, could not deal with jealousy.

After becoming the young master of the Gao family, expansion cannot be suppressed.

Not a good friend.

This is Jiang Wang's own judgment of the person, but he is not willing to say this behind his back.

"Determine the true relationship between you and the Gao family. This will determine how much involvement Governor Gao Zhen needs to have in the subsequent case process." Lin Youxie said casually.

Jiang Wang said seriously: "When we handle our case, we have nothing to do with Governor Gao Zhen, and we don't need his involvement."

"Okay." Lin Youxie said nonchalantly: "You are responsible for the case and it's up to you."

"Of course, I should control the general direction." Jiang Wang nodded with authority, and then asked naturally: "Where should we start investigating?"

Lin Youxie:...

"Let's go to the autopsy first," she said at last.

…

…

It was still late at night.

The autopsy room located in the north of the city was dark and cold even with high candles burning.

Jiang Wang simply set off a huge fire flower, which cooled down the temperature and hung on the dome, making the place a little brighter.

There was only one morgue in the large room, and there was only Huang Yixing lying upright on the morgue.

Lin Youxie was wearing a pair of translucent gloves of unknown material and was carefully examining the body.

Jiang Wang was at the door, quietly asking the local police officers and gangsters.

In fact, nothing can be learned from asking the local policemen. The Capital Inspection Office had already issued an order from afar that no one in Hengyang County was allowed to inspect the body, and all information was to be sealed until someone came from Linzi.

The local police only made a rough observation earlier to confirm that Huang Yixing was really dead.

For the local police officers, the case was closed, and they had nothing to investigate. They just did some preliminary work, such as recording testimonies, and drawing a portrait of Huang Yixing's death...

Jiang Wang asked them specifically, more because he wanted to find out the attitude of the locals.

Because the mission he shoulders does not lie in the truth itself.

"By the way." Jiang Wang asked, "Who was the painter who painted Huang Yixing's portrait?"

The catcher said: "Our chief catcher drew it himself."

"Oh, where are the others?" Jiang Wang asked.

"Rest at home." The policeman asked, "Should I call him?"

"No need for the time being." Jiang Wang thought for a moment and then asked, "Are you very busy recently?"

The catcher said bitterly: "After something like this happened, people in the city are now in panic. There are always some people who want to fish in troubled waters. The adults above don't really care..."

He stopped here.

Jiang Wang naturally understood.

The people were in panic because of the murder, so Qi Ting directly asked Gao Shaoling from the next county to take charge of the matter. Officials in Zhaoheng City were also frightened.

It's chaos from top to bottom, so it's natural for those responsible for maintaining order to have a hard time.

The widower's eyes were wandering, and he glanced at the morgue from time to time, looking very uncomfortable.

You can imagine Lin Youxie's ability to make a man who is used to seeing dead bodies feel uncomfortable...

Mr. Jiang, a fourth-grade senior Qingpai head catcher, did not look back and asked in a senior-like manner: "You haven't been in this business for a long time, have you?"

"Ah? Ah, yes." The man came back to his senses and replied in a panic.

"It's okay." Mr. Jiang smiled considerately: "Come on, let's go out and talk."

The police officer and the police officer immediately turned around and ran out as if they were running away. Jiang Wang followed them without changing his expression.

"Master Jiang!"

Lin Youxie's voice sounded behind him. "Help me."
