"I think something is strange."

After coming out of the county government and getting on the carriage, Xu Yan said in a deep voice.

The county magistrate also passed the imperial examination all the way, and should be very clear about the punishment. How could Qin Qian let him die before confessing? Even if he died, the body should be left to the charity house first and should not be thrown into the mass grave unless it was to cover up something.

Mr. Xu Er's face was heavy, "Let's talk about it when we go back."

The two of them went back and said to the old man without saying a word.

After listening, the old man stroked his beard and pondered.

"Second grandfather and uncle!"

The shouts came with footsteps, and several people looked out, and Song Wanyue walked quickly with Xu.

"Second uncle, brother."

Xu also called for someone.

After shouting, he smiled and said, "I guess you are coming soon, so I was frightened when I heard the news of my grandfather's poisoning?"

"Not..."

Looking at Xu's smile, Xu Yan also smiled, "When I heard Song Si say that his grandfather was poisoned, I felt that the sky had fallen. Fortunately, his grandfather was fine."

"Of course my great-grandfather will be fine. He will live a hundred years and enjoy the joy of family."

Xu Yan echoed, "Yue'er is right, grandfather must live a hundred years and enjoy the joy of family."

Song Wanyue lit her little head, "I will definitely."

Everyone was amused by her.

The atmosphere inside the house relaxed.

"Uncle and brother sit for a while, Yue'er and I will go to cook."

Mr. Xu Er winked Xu Yan when he heard this. Xu Yan understood it and said, "I haven't seen Yue'er for a long time. I want to talk to her. Don't worry about cooking. Wan'er, go over and say to your mother first. I'll go over and see her later."

Xu did not doubt that he had him and turned around and went out.

The house calmed down.

The three of them looked at Song Wanyue.

The old man said, "Yue'er, you didn't let me see Qin Qian yesterday. Did you know that he was dead long ago?"

Song Wanyue curled her smile, "Yes, before you woke up, he couldn't stand the torture and died. I was afraid that you would blame yourself, so I didn't tell you."

"Have you confirmed that he was really dead?"

Song Wanyue was slightly stunned.

"Qingping County is not an ignorant person. Even if he is eager to ask him to confess, he will not kill anyone, and he will not throw the body into the mass grave without notifying his family. Unless he does not want an official career, Qin Qian will definitely not die."

"What my father meant is that the magistrate of Qingping County wants to shelter Qin Qian?"

After the old man finished his words, Mr. Xu Er asked anxiously.

The old man's voice was slightly deeper, "Only a Qingping County Magistrate would not dare to do this, it should be..."

The old man paused, "It should be the two who lived in the county government."

Mr. Xu Er stood up in shock.

Xu Yan was also shocked, "Why did they do this?"

"For Yue'er's business."

The two couldn't believe it.

Song Wanyue pursed her lips, but her heart felt sincere admiration. In just one night, the old man thought of these things, and he was worthy of being a famous scholar all over the world.

"They are so brave!"

Mr. Xu Er came to his senses and was very angry.

My father is so old. If the poison is really harmful to the body, my father will now...

"This is just a guess for the father. As for whether this is the case, we still need to investigate carefully. The breakthrough point of the investigation is Qin Qian's family."

Mr. Xu Er sat back, "What my father meant was to bring Qin Qian's parents and let them make this big deal?"

"You are right. Only in this way can those two people show their strength, or force Qin Qian to "dead" out."

A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Si hurried to the restaurant, found Manager Wei, and whispered a few words. Manager Wei called a friend to continue the order.

The guy went back to the house to change his clothes, went to the backyard to lead a horse, and drove out of Qingping County.

...

As soon as Mr. Xu Er and Xu Yan entered the county government, the third prince got the news. He originally wanted to send someone to invite them to come, but was stopped by Duke Qi. "This is too deliberate. You and I will visit the old man later."

The two of them waited for half an hour before leaving the county government office and came to see the old man in a carriage. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Mr. Xu Er also being slightly stunned.

"I have met the third prince, Duke of Qi."

Mr. Xu Er bowed.

The third prince helped him, "Mr. Second, don't have to be too polite, when did he arrive?"

"It was an hour, and I went to the county government during this period and wanted to ask Qin Qian why he wanted to harm my father. I realized that Qin Qian was dead. When I came back, I told my father about this, and my father kept blaming himself."

The third prince's expression was exactly the same, "Qingping County is too anxious about this matter. I have submitted this memorial and requested that he be exempted from being the magistrate of Qingping County. The old man does not have to blame himself. According to my and the Duke of the State, Qin Qian is the most suspicious, and he is still worthy of death."

"Thank you for your comfort in the third prince, but after all, there is no conclusive evidence. A life is gone. I feel very uncomfortable. I won't accompany you and go back to the house to go and take a slow down."

"Slow down, sir."

Xu Liang helped the old man back to the house.

The third prince sat down with the Duke of Qi.

The third prince said, "Don't worry, Mr. Second, even if Qin Qian dies, we will find out the person behind him."

"The third prince has trouble."

"Ask your duty, Mr. Second, please be polite. The Duke and I were determined to bring the imperial doctor to Qingping County to help the old man detoxify him earlier, but I forgot Mr. Second, please don't blame me."

Mr. Xu Er stood up and gave him a big gift, "Thank you, the third prince for running for his father."

The third prince stood up and helped him, "Mr. Second, you are really polite. It is related to the old man, so I should do my best."

"Did Mr. Second come by himself?"

The Duke of Qi asked clearly.

"I'm here with Yan'er, he's going to see his mother."

The Duke of Qi nodded, "It seems that I haven't seen him for a long time since the old man's birthday party."

Seeing what he said, Mr. Xu Er asked someone to call Xu Yan over.

After a greeting, Xu Yan sat down, the third prince and Duke Qi first chatted with him, and then asked, "What are the plans for Mr. Xu in the future?"

If it weren't for Xu Qingwan's disappearance, Xu Yan had already surpassed the blue ones now, and because of this, his reputation did not rise, and he could have been brought over.

"I haven't considered these things even though my family has encountered many accidents."

The Duke of Qi nodded, "The old man has been here for only a month, and such a thing happened. I think Qingping County can't stay anymore. After a few days, the old man's health will recover. Please advise the old man to return to Beijing."

Only when the old man returns to Beijing can they take over the secret recipe.

"good."

Seeing Xu Yan's response, the Duke of Qi felt relieved, and said for a while, saying goodbye and leaving.

After sending them back, the two of them returned to the painting hall, and the old man was already waiting.

"Father, what you said is indeed right. They are really planning the business in Yue'er's hands."
