Chapter 14 Tang Shujing
"father!"
"Dad, wait for my daughter!"
At this time, a voice came from behind the city wall, accompanied by the sound of dense footsteps.
Everyone looked back.
She turned out to be a beautiful girl with very long legs.
Although she was wearing her daughter's skirt, she didn't look like a woman when she ran. She looked like a wild boy.
Tang Ju frowned.
He was not in a good mood to begin with, but now that he saw his daughter, he was filled with anger and wanted to curse her.
"Jing'er, why are you following me?" Tang Ju narrowed his eyes and looked unhappy.
This beautiful girl was Tang Ju's daughter, named "Tang Shujing". She ran closer and said with a smile: "I heard that a murder occurred on the city wall, so I came over to take a look."
"Nonsense!"
The beard under Tang Ju's chin stood up, and he glared and scolded: "A murder case is at stake. Is this a place for you to watch the excitement? Why don't you back down!"
"father……"
Tang Shujing's expression did not change, she took Tang Ju's hand and said, "My daughter is here to solve my father's problems. Could it be that my father has forgotten that I am the 'number one goddess hunter in the world'!"
Tang Ju's expression moved slightly.
Yes, although his daughter looks like a wild boy, she is indeed very talented in investigating crimes.
Tang Shujing had helped him solve some difficult cases before.
Of course, the title of "the best goddess hunter in the world" was awarded to Tang Shujing herself.
Tang Ju thought again that Princess Lanling was coming and the backlog of lawsuits over human life was a big problem, so why not...
Thinking of this, Tang Ju's expression softened, he looked at Tang Shujing and said, "There are no rules, that's all. Just go and take a look."
After finishing speaking, Tang Ju turned around and strode forward, followed quickly by the chief secretary, county magistrate and others.
"Thank you dad!"
Tang Shujing smiled and thanked her, took two steps forward with her long legs, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Lin Captou, who was standing aside with his head bowed.
She raised her eyebrows and said, "Aren't you leaving yet?"
Lin Biao raised his head and saw that it was Tang Shujing. He hurriedly cupped his fists and saluted: "Second Miss."
Tang Shujing waved her hand and used her eyes to signal him to follow her, just like the way an elder brother signals his younger brother to follow him.
Captain Lin rushed over and said with a smile, "Second Miss, this case is difficult to solve. The Ming Palace will definitely be angry. When the time comes, I ask the Second Miss to say some nice words in front of the Ming Palace!"
"Don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me." Tang Shujing waved her hand carelessly.
Lin Captou smiled bitterly and shook his head, sighing lightly, but he did not forget to follow Tang Shujing.
Half a year ago, Tang Ju was promoted to the magistrate of Leshou County. Along with him were Tang Ju's two daughters.
Capt. Lin had only seen the second young lady of the county magistrate's family, the long-legged and carefree Tang Shujing.
This second young lady does not want to stay in the boudoir, but is quite interested in investigating cases and exploring secrets.
She is indeed very good at investigating cases, and Capt. Lin, a veteran who has been handling cases for decades, has to give her a thumbs up.
In the end, he even became Tang Shujing's "follower" and "subordinate"!
Became a handyman...
As for Tang Ju's eldest daughter, she rarely goes out.
I heard that her name is "Tang Shuwan" and she has a gentle and calm personality. She is a real lady of the family, very different from the second lady Tang Shujing's personality.
…
after a little while.
Tang Ju and his party were approaching the southeast city wall.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Tang Ju stopped and looked strange.
He took a deep breath, looked back at everyone and asked, "Didn't the murder just happen this morning? Why does it stink?"
"It does smell bad!" The county magistrate frowned and waved his sleeves to cover his nose.
"It stinks!"
"Mingfu, this stench..." The county lieutenant finally experienced it more, covering his nose and said: "This stench is not caused by the rotting corpse!"
"Second the proposal!" Tang Shujing gently slapped Qiong's nose with a small hand and frowned slightly. She performed better than most people.
"Then what kind of stench is this? It's so strong that it would kill a person!" Tang Ju suppressed the anger in his heart.
Lin took a step forward, bowed and said: "In the Ming Dynasty, I have sent people to investigate under the city wall. It is said that the vendors are making 'stinky tofu'. This unpleasant smell is the stinky tofu."
Distribute.”
"Stinky tofu?!"
Tang Ju frowned, pondered for a while, looked at everyone and asked: "What is stinky tofu? Why have I never seen it before, and have never heard of anyone talking about it?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Lin Captou explained: "According to the information I got, stinky tofu is a kind of food. Sister Zhang who runs the stall said that it is a unique delicacy in the world!"
"Good food?!" Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. The county magistrate said: "It smells so bad, but it's good food? Who dares to eat such good food!"
"According to Sister Zhang who runs the stall, stinky tofu is a unique delicacy. It smells bad but tastes delicious. It is unique in the world..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the county magistrate Tang Ju shouted loudly: "Absurd!"
Mr. Lin quickly stopped talking, huddled his neck, and silently stood back behind Tang Shujing.
Tang Ju continued: "Such a stench is simply a nuisance to the people! You dare to say that it is a unique delicacy in the world. It is simply ridiculous! It is unreasonable!"
The county magistrate suggested: "Mingfu, why don't you send someone to seal down that stinky tofu stall?"
Tang Ju was about to nod, but his heart suddenly moved and he calmed down.
He is not a dim-witted official who makes decisions on the spur of the moment.
On the contrary, Tang Ju was actually very wise.
It was only because of the murder that happened today that I was in an impetuous mood, so I almost acted like an official.
Traffickers and lackeys may be humble, but their stalls may be the family's livelihood. If they are seized rashly, wouldn't they be harming others?
Tang Ju took a deep breath, looked at Lin Captou and asked, "That stinky tofu...is it really edible?"
Lin Captou carefully replied: "It's edible. Sister Zhang, who runs the stall, has eaten it herself. According to her, the more you eat, the better it tastes. Stinky tofu is like this. It smells stinky but tastes delicious. It's unique in the world...
"
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Ju coughed and said, "It's just a small man's livelihood, let him go."
"yes."
Lin Baotou lowered his head and handed over his hands, but he felt very depressed. Couldn't he be allowed to finish what he said?
Tang Ju stepped up and was about to continue walking forward. He thought for a moment and then stopped. He looked at Lin Captou and asked, "Has anyone ever visited that stinky tofu stall?"
"No. Sister Zhang, who runs the stall, once said that everyone can try one for free, free of charge, but no one dares to try it," Lin said.
"Wait a minute, you just said free trial, no money?" Tang Ju grasped the key point, his eyes flashing.
"Uh...not bad."
Not only did Mr. Lin discover that Tang Ju's behavior was abnormal, but the county magistrate, chief registrar, county lieutenant, etc. also found it extremely strange.
Mingfu seemed... very excited?
"Ahem, uh-huh!" Tang Shujing pretended to cough, her voice clear.
"Hmm..." Tang Ju's expression changed slightly, he immediately turned around, strode forward, and said seriously: "It's important to investigate the case, why are you standing there standing still?"
