savior catcher

Chapter 25
Mu Liufeng solved Wang Yi's case as soon as he took office, which greatly established his prestige and consolidated his status as the acting chief catcher in the south of the city.

Headhunters are different from fast arresters in that they have to deal with a lot of official duties.Unless there is a homicide, there is little opportunity to patrol the streets.In the next few days, Mu Liufeng was familiar with the affairs.

After a period of hard work, Mu Liufeng straightened out the chores at hand, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

On this day, Yu Shiwei approached Mu Liufeng: "I have something good to tell you, do you want to hear it?"

The relationship between Yu Shiwei and Mu Liufeng has been very subtle lately. Since the incident of "Night Not Returning", Yu Shiwei has always been indifferent to Mu Liufeng.Neither anger nor previous intimacy.

Mu Liufeng has always been careful with Yu Shiwei, and now that Yu Shiwei is trying to trick him, Mu Liufeng of course responds to all changes by remaining unchanged: "What a good thing, let me tell you about it."

Rain Master said slightly: "The city lord's wife is going to Lingyin Temple tomorrow to offer incense. The city lord's daughter has specially asked me to invite you to accompany her. Isn't it a good thing?"

Hearing that Jian Linglong invited him, Mu Liufeng was a little excited.But when he turned his head and caught a glimpse of Yu Shiwei's piercing eyes, Mu Liufeng instantly remembered the lessons learned from "Red Sleeves Add Fragrance".

Mu Liufeng said calmly: "It is indeed a good thing, but I have too many official duties recently, and I am afraid that I will let down the kindness of the city lord's daughter."

A smile finally appeared on Yu Shiwei's face: "You really don't want to go? The daughter of the city lord personally invites you. Not everyone can have this honor."

Mu Liufeng said: "It's an honor, but it's really inconvenient to be entangled in official duties. I think the daughter of the city lord will understand."

Master Yu smiled slyly: "Sister Linglong also invited me, so you don't want to go either?"

Mu Liufeng's heart skipped a beat, it was difficult to answer this question.Come to think of it, I just said that I was busy with work, but I slapped myself in the face.Say no, just don't give Master Yu a little face.Yu Shiwei is playing tricks with him!

Fortunately, Mu Liufeng turned his head quickly, and pretended to be very embarrassed: "The apprentice is going, and the master should accompany him. It's just that I just took over the affairs here, how can I live up to the love of my boss, I... embarrassing!"

Yu Shiwei said: "It's only two days away, so I can't delay the work. Besides, you have worked so hard recently, you should relax and combine work and rest so that you can work better, right?"

"This..." Mu Liufeng was still very "difficult".

Yu Shiwei grabbed Mu Liufeng's arm and began to shake it: "Master, you can go with me. I have been in Jiangcheng for so long, and I haven't gone out to have fun. You can just accompany me, okay?"

Mu Liufeng secretly rejoiced in his heart: "You begged me for this, I was forced to do this!"

Mu Liufeng took a deep breath, and seemed to have struggled fiercely before saying, "Okay, but let's not make an example!"

Yu Shiwei burst into joy instantly: "Thank you, master, you are so kind!"

Mu Liufeng was so complacent: "Xiao Mian, play tricks with me!"

Early the next morning, Mu Liufeng and Yu Shiwei followed the motorcade of the city lord's mansion and headed towards Lingyin Temple after paying their respects to the city lord's wife.

Walking outside the city, Mu Liufeng apologized to the wife of the city lord and asked to stop by to see Ren Xin's family.The wife of the city lord naturally agreed wholeheartedly, and kept praising Mu Liu's love and friendship.

Jian Linglong also clamored to be together, but the wife of the city owner couldn't resist, so the three left the convoy and went to Ren Xin's house.

As soon as he arrived near Ren Xin's home, he found that the courtyard was full of people, and Ren Xin's wife couldn't stop crying while holding the child.

Seeing this, Mu Liufeng quickly squeezed in, came to Ren Xin's wife and said, "Sister-in-law, what happened."

Mu Liufeng has been helping Ren Xin's family for a few days, and they have known each other for a long time.

Seeing Mu Liufeng, Ren Xin's wife immediately had a backbone: "Brother Mu, you came just in time. As soon as your eldest brother Ren died, his eldest brother came to usurp our family's property. Our orphans and widows live on those few acres of Susukida. How can I live if I own the land property!"

Ren Xin's elder brother is called Ren Chu, and knowing that Mu Liufeng is a yamen catcher, he hastily argued, "My lord, my younger brother did mortgage the property to me, so how can I force it?"

After hearing this, Ren Xin's wife was dissatisfied, and quarreled with Ren Chu again.

Mu Liufeng quickly stopped the two of them: "You guys tell me what happened, I will make my own judgment about what is right and what is wrong."

Ren Chudao: "My younger brother has always been known for helping the poor. He found me one day and asked me to borrow 5000 gold coins, saying that he wanted to help a friend open a shop."

"The amount of 5000 gold coins is not small. I hesitated at that time, so he said that he would mortgage the land deed to me. After his friend paid back the money, he would redeem the land deed. To be fair, we asked three friends to be witnesses , and signed the deed."

Ren Xin's wife said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, the deed must have been forged by you in collusion."

Mu Liufeng quickly comforted him: "Sister-in-law, please be safe, and I will definitely let the truth out."

Mu Liufeng turned to Ren Chu and said, "Bring me the deed."

Ren Chu then showed the deed to Mu Liufeng together with the land deed that Ren Xin mortgaged to him.Sure enough, the deed clearly stated the reason for the incident, and it also had the signatures of several witnesses.

Mu Liufeng called Jian Linglong over and said, "Fellow folks, this is Ms. Linglong, the daughter of the city lord. I have made an arbitral decision on this matter, but for the sake of fairness, I specially invite Ms. Linglong to be a witness for this matter."

Later, Mu Liufeng asked Jian Linglong to invite the elders of Ren's family into the hall, and asked Yushi Wei to guard the door to keep out the people related to the matter.

After doing this, Mu Liufeng asked Yu Shiwei to pass the three witnesses of this incident into the house one by one.

The first person to enter the house was Ren Bi, a distant relative of the Ren family.

Mu Liufeng took the deed and asked Ren Bi: "This deed was signed by all five of you, yes or no."

Ren Bi said: "Yes, sir."

Mu Liufeng said again: "Signing the contract is such an important matter, how could it be chosen in your house? You are not the person who borrowed the money."

Ren Bi said: "We are relatives, and we have a very good relationship on weekdays. It is just right to sign at my middleman's house."

Mu Liufeng smiled and said, "That makes sense, you can go."

The second person who entered the house was Liu Qian, who was Ren Chu's neighbor.

Mu Liufeng still held the deed and asked Liu Qian: "This deed was signed by the five of you, yes or no."

Liu Qian said: "Yes, sir."

Mu Liufeng said again: "Signing the contract is such an important matter, why did you choose the teahouse? There are too many people in that place, so it's not safe."

Liu Qian said: "The tea house is so nice. While drinking tea and chatting, you can get down to business at the same time, without any delay."

Mu Liufeng laughed loudly: "You really know how to enjoy life, you can go."

The third person who entered the house was Chen Si, who was also Ren Chu's neighbor.

Mu Liufeng still took the deed and asked Chen Si: "This deed was signed by the five of you, yes or no."

Chen Sidao: "Yes, sir."

Mu Liufeng said again: "Signing the contract is such an important matter, how could it be chosen in the ancestral hall, where the ancestors are worshipped."

Chen Sidao: "With the evidence of the ancestors, it can better show the fairness of the contract."

Mu Liufeng sneered: "I think if the ancestors and ancestors have knowledge, they will definitely be revived by you, an unworthy descendant."

Mu Liufeng cupped his hands to the elders of Ren's parents in the hall and said: "The elders must already know the truth, then I will leave it to you to handle the next matter. After all, it is a matter within your clan, and it is inconvenient for me to intervene."

Mu Liufeng paused and added: "Brother Ren and I are life and death friends, and I don't want his widow to be treated unfairly!"
