283 Exoneration
What happened next went even faster than Xu Wen imagined.
Governor Zhang obviously had doubts about Governor Deng's mansion, and after Liu Huzi finished speaking, he did not move, and immediately arranged for someone to continue the search along this line.
At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and the candidates had already digested the lunch meal, and their stomachs were grumbling with hunger.
The current situation has nothing to do with most of them, it stands to reason that they should be able to leave and wait for the release of the list in four days, but at this time, no one moved, and they all waited here with bated breath, and they didn't dare to take a breath.
Xu Wen glanced at Cen Xiaoyi, sighed in his heart, and then sank down slightly.
This guy's acting skills have reached the point of being superb, he looks as nervous and confused as all the candidates, and adds a little worry - this emotion is very real, after all, as we all know, Governor Deng has taken a fancy to him as a quasi-son-in-law, and the two are about to become relatives.
A real actor may not have this acting skills, after all, not everyone will bring the role to their daily life so realistically. But Cen Xiaoyi dared to do this, after all, he had something to rely on.
Is there nothing really pointing to him in terms of evidence alone?
What about his quasi-father-in-law and backer, Deng Chengsheng?
Xu Wen's heart was full of doubts, but Jiang Wangfeng was very excited. He grabbed Xu Wen's hand tightly and whispered: "If you continue like this, can you follow the vine and touch the melon and pick up that guy together?" He is really disgusting to me......
Xu Wen could understand his feelings.
The harder and more capable this kind of person is, the more disgusting he becomes. His hole cards are too full to slap him to death, and he may get up along the pole again at some point.
found the right way, Deng Chengsheng was trapped here again, and the case was investigated quickly.
It didn't take long for all the documents and cases in Deng Chengsheng's study to be searched and compared one by one.
The examiners present were all extremely experienced old craftsmen, and they were the best at detecting insignificant similarities from clues, and each of them took a note copied by Zuo Teng, and soon found the one that was exactly the same as the handwriting.
It comes from the pen of Master Jiang in Deng Chengsheng's mansion, who has even seen Governor Zhang and is one of Deng Chengsheng's most powerful henchmen.
Master Jiang was taken over defenselessly, and under the authority of the governor, he explained everything he knew in the blink of an eye.
The existence of this group of monks in Jinglin Temple was the first news provided by him, but he didn't know the ins and outs, only that the prefect asked him to "do some small things" and pack up a small goods from other places.
He gave Xu Wen's name and identity, and told him that this person would appear at Jinglin Temple when the time came. He just did a simple job, and he didn't know much more.
When this master spoke, he didn't look at Cen Xiaoyi, and Cen Xiaoyi's expression was also very calm, still looking like he had nothing to do with him.
Didn't the man himself know what he was doing this?
It's impossible, the master of the prefect will be so simple?
In other words, Deng Cheng was such a person in his life, and Master Jiang had long been surprised......
Master Jiang honestly told all the things and dragged Deng Chengsheng in.
Deng Chengsheng's face kept changing, from white to red to blue, and finally sat numbly on the chair, looking straight ahead.
If this matter is exposed in private, or there is still room for maneuver, such a public execution, he will have no escape, and half of his career will basically be ruined here.
The candidates below were quite excited at first, they were all young, and their lives were very simple, this kind of thing only appeared in the book, when did it happen so openly in front of their eyes?
But it didn't take long for them to feel that something was wrong.
You shouldn't listen to and ask more about things that you shouldn't know, and the bad things done behind the scenes by such a court official as Governor Deng should be handed over to a formal agency to deal with formally. In this way, in the Jiangnan Workshop and in front of more than 200 candidates, what does it mean?
What exactly does the Governor want to do?
The candidates gradually fell silent, lowered their heads one by one, and longed to burrow into the ground and disappear here immediately.
"Governor Deng, do you admit everything this villain said?"
Until this time, Governor Zhang was still smiling, and he even turned sideways and asked his subordinate cordially.
"Admit it. Deng Chengsheng is also very single, so he responded in one bite.
"This thing...... Is that what you want to do?" asked Governor Zhang.
"Yes, it doesn't. I've been so busy all day long that I can't manage so many things, and if someone mentions it, I will make someone do it. Deng Chengsheng's face was expressionless and he spoke quickly.
"Oh, who is this man?" asked Governor Zhang, squinting his eyes.
"Of course it's my quasi-son-in-law Cen Xiaoyi. Deng Chengsheng looked straight at a corner of the crowd, his eyes cold and sharp, with obvious disgust and hatred.
The crowd dispersed in an uproar, revealing Cen Xiaoyi.
It's ridiculous to say, many people standing next to him were still patting him on the back a few minutes ago - although he didn't get the first place, the second place is not low, plus with the support of Governor Deng in the back, it is clear that he is still very promising.
But for a short time, these people treated him like a lump of garbage mixed in among them, and avoided him.
Until this time, Cen Xiaoyi was still at a loss, as if he didn't know what was going on.
The two soldiers were walking up to him and reaching out to get him, when he suddenly struggled and shouted, "Wait!"
Governor Zhang stretched out his hand and ordered, "Wait a minute. ”
Cen Xiaoyi made it clear that he wanted to defend himself, but now that even Deng Chengsheng has admitted it, it can be said that the evidence is ironclad, and there is no room for him to speak at all.
Deng Chengsheng only smiled sarcastically at this time, and did not speak, putting on an attitude of "let you say whatever you want".
"You say. Governor Zhang spoke with interest.
"I don't know if the prefect has any misunderstanding, but it's clear that it's not what he said it is. Cen Xiaoyi said.
He had an excellent appearance, and the three-day exam had made him a little tired, but this did not detract from his beauty, but added a touch of haggard fragility.
Governor Zhang just looked at him and asked with a smile, "Oh?
"I have some words, I don't know if I can ask Lord Deng in person. Cen Xiaoyi turned his head to look at Governor Zhang, his angle was the most pitiful, and he knew it himself.
"What does Lord Deng think?" asked Governor Zhang, turning around.
"Hmm. Deng Chengsheng replied very lightly, he still had that hint of mockery, and this expression obviously made Cen Xiaoyi a little uneasy.
"I know that the Lord intends to send someone to attack and kill Xu Wen for my own good, I am deeply grateful, even if the Lord is guilty, I should be guilty!" Cen Xiaoyi said loudly, his voice was very clear.
"Damn, this kid is retreating into advance! It's too cunning!" Jiang Wangfeng angrily chattered next to Xu Wen's ear.
"However, I have some objections to what Lord Deng just said. The adult just had the heart, and he didn't make up his mind to do it, when Jiang Shigong misunderstood the adult's meaning and did it without permission. Cen Xiaoyi said.
Is this to take Deng Chengsheng out as well?
This kid has a big heart!
"I was in the inner room when Master Deng and Master Jiang were talking, and I had heard all the conversations between the two, and now I can confront Master Jiang, you can see if I am right. ”
Cen Xiaoyi was talking eloquently, and Master Jiang was not far away, looking at him in disbelief. As soon as his voice fell, Master Jiang immediately spoke up, and said with a little indignation: "You say!"
Cen Xiaoyi straightened his clothes and stepped forward.
He opened his mouth, and the voice he came out in an instant changed, low and hoarse, really similar to Master Jiang.
"What do you command?"
Then his voice changed again, and changed to the tone of Governor Deng's mansion.
"Recently, I have a worry, and I don't know how to resolve it. ”
"I wonder if villains can share their worries for adults?"
Cen Xiaoyi played two roles, asking and answering himself vividly, and for a while, a dark study seemed to appear in front of everyone.
