In less than two days, the people sent by Wu Kun secretly finally brought back the exciting news.

It turned out that Jiang Qi was really caught by someone.

He worked as a housekeeper in the Ma Mansion and did not get married until he was thirty years old. The woman was a maid in the Ma Mansion.

Afterwards, they gave birth to two daughters one after another.

Jiang Qi was very dissatisfied with this.

No matter what, he still hopes to have a son to pass on the incense.

Unfortunately, my wife was unable to have children due to physical reasons.

Although he himself is the housekeeper of the Ma Mansion, he is still a servant and cannot take a concubine or something.

Later, when I went out to collect rent, I met a widow.

After a while... I got married quietly.

The widow was also very successful and became pregnant not long after.

So Jiang Qi secretly took out his savings and bought a small courtyard in Fengping Town to accommodate the widow, hoping that she could have a son.

Finally got what you want.

Now, Jiang Qi was naturally overjoyed and obeyed the woman in a very good way, asking for money and food.

As the saying goes, there are no airtight walls in the world.

Over time, many people in the Ma family knew about this, but Jiang Qi's first wife was kept in the dark.

A few years ago, the widow died of illness.

More than a year later, his son Jiang Tianci married his wife and was happy to have a son.

In this way, Jiang Qi was even more satisfied. After all, he had both children and grandchildren and had no regrets in his life.

But I know that disaster comes from the sky...

A few days ago, my son and his family of three were tied up.

...

"There will be news so soon?"

As soon as he saw Gu Ming, Jin Buhuan's expression seemed a little surprised.

After all, he also hopes to solve the case as soon as possible, and to invite some credit in front of the magistrate Tong.

"Sir, please listen to me slowly..."

The case is already in sight, and Gu Ming no longer hides it, telling the situation he has mastered and his analysis of the case.

Finally, the key point was raised: "According to a secret report, Jiang Qi's son Jiang Tianci's family of three was tied up at this critical moment.

After many people sent by Lord Wu, the kidnappers were suspected to be bandits from Heihu Village.

Based on this, I communicated with Lord Wu and had sufficient reason to determine that the purpose of the kidnapper was not money, but..."

"Master Ma?"

Jin Buhuan's face became extremely solemn, and he said something.

"The headmaster is wise!"

"What if you and Lord Wu have a wrong judgment? Or, it's just a coincidence..."

"Master Captain, what if there are some rumors about Feng Captain Captain secretly colluding with Heihu Village?"

"Is there such a thing?" Jin Buhuan raised his eyebrows.

Gu Ming smiled: "Although rumors should not be taken seriously, now is a special period.

So my subordinates think that all suspicious factors cannot be missed. There are too many coincidences, and together, maybe it is the truth.”

After hearing these words, Jin Buhuan did not respond, but squinted his eyes and looked at Gu Ming carefully.

After a while, I smiled and raised my hand and patted Gu Ming on the shoulder: "No, there is a future! Since this is the case, then this headmaster might as well reveal some of the situation to you...

Perhaps, you and Mr. Wu both think that Mr. Tong has been deceived by some people, right?"

Gu Ming's eyes lit up: "Is this...?"

"The judge Tong was always wise and obsessed with Qiu Hao, so how could he be inseparable from black and white?

On the way here, the master revealed that Mr. Ma had written a letter before, and the letter mentioned that Mr. Wu was well-off and was ready to work hard with him to seek development together.

At the same time, some of the current situation about Linjiang are also mentioned...

Therefore, the adults actually have a scale in their hearts for this case.

The reason why I deliberately neglected Lord Wu is, first of all, I want to put pressure on Lord Wu, and secondly, I want some people to relax their vigilance..."

"So that's the case, I'm worthy of being a magistrate!"

"Remember, these words cannot be circulated outside the world, including Lord Wu!"

"I understand, thank you for your trust from the captain."

Jin Buhuan smiled: "I didn't want to tell you, but... I really appreciate you.

If the case is finally explained, after the lawsuit is solved, are you interested in going to the Gusu Prefecture Office together to seek greater development?”

Isn't this nonsense?

Water flows to the lower places, and people walk to the higher places.

What's the point of being a head-in-chief in Linjiang County?

Gusu Prefecture is not just the central government office of Jiangnan Road. As for the entire Han Dynasty, it ranked among the top in terms of population size, city size and prosperity.

Once you have some excuses here, is it still far from entering Shence Mansion?

Therefore, Gu Ming immediately clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, the headmaster, for your support."

"Haha, don't rush to thank you, this case has not been solved yet."

When talking about the case, Gu Ming couldn't help but frown and whispered: "Catcher Jin, the key at the moment is to rescue Jiang Tianci's family first.

In this way, we can take the initiative and arrest Jiang Qi immediately.

Once he pleads guilty and confesses to the envoy behind the scenes, the case will be revealed.

However, there are nearly 200 bandits in Heihu Village, and with the county government’s staff... Moreover, once people are transferred on a large scale, they will inevitably alarm the enemy, force the other party to transfer the hostages, or even silence the silence."

Jin Buhuan nodded: "Yes, this is indeed a problem. So, according to your opinion, what other good strategies are there?"

Gu Ming thought for a while before lowering his voice, he said, "There is a solution, but it requires strong support from the headmaster and Geng..."

...

Fengping Town.

An ancient mountain town.

Several miles away from the town, there is a dangerous canyon, which is also the place where bandits like to occupy the most.

The government has encircled and suppressed several times, but the results have been minimal.

In the past, the bandits in this canyon were scattered and had a relatively large mobility.

About twenty years ago, a bandit leader nicknamed "Black Tiger" emerged from the sky, occupied the mountain and became the king, and established the Black Tiger Village.

It took less than a year to annex all scattered forces and become the bandit leader who dominates one side.

During this period, he was surrounded and suppressed by the government twice, but this guy relied on the advantage of the terrain and caused heavy casualties to the officers and soldiers.

Therefore, the reward order issued by the county government issued by the black tiger's head is the most valuable: one hundred taels!

At noon.

On a hill near Heihu Village, Gu Ming was lying on the ground, and a long conical bamboo tube was placed on the stone in front of him.

This is a bold and lengthened crescent mirror he specially made for this action.

Not far apart, Jin Buhuan was also lying on the ground and watching... He used the conventional monocular mirror made by Gu Ming before.

"Oh my God, this thing is simply amazing... Did you figure it out yourself?"

Jin Buhuan exclaimed while expressing suspicion.

"Hehe, if the headmaster hasn't seen it before, it's my own invention."

"What do you mean by boy? I mocked the captain for not knowing it?"

"It's not interesting... If Captain King likes it, you might as well use it."

"Ha? Ha! Just say you guys are good enough... By the way, my subordinates just happened to have a vacancy for the team leader..."

"Thank you, Master Captain for the promotion!"

I gave me a thing worth about one tael of silver to exchange for a head of the Gusu Mansion’s constable team. This business is a bit interesting no matter how you calculate it...
