Chapter 158: Another false alarm
Yuan Yizhen is a fourth-grade official who climbed up from the bottom of the small official, so the mood of suffering from gains and losses is more serious than anyone else, and now his nervous face is black, and his lips are trembling up and down irregularly. However, it can be seen that he is still trying to contain the fear in his heart and not make himself too gaffe.
"Doctor Qin's law enforcement is like a mountain, you and I will not escape this time, but Doctor Qin has always rewarded and punished clearly, if he can kill the real murderer in a short time...... If the real culprit is captured, maybe there is still the possibility of making meritorious contributions......"
When Yan Zhuang said this, even he didn't have the confidence to think that a quarter of an hour ago he was looking forward to taking over the new government office of Qianniuwei, which held huge power, but at this time it had become a sad joke.
"Dayon ......"
Yuan Yizhen stammered a little and hesitated a little when he picked up the stubble, but he still spoke out after all.
"Da Yin, when the subordinates rushed to the Ten Princes' Mansion for the second time, they had already tortured the relevant people, and the truth was very clear, that is, Li Sujie, the king of Chen Liu, killed himself by drinking a sword. So, therefore, it is impossible to catch this real culprit ......"
Hearing this, Yan Zhuang snorted, he was not surprised by this result, Chen Liuwang Li Sujie's sword-drinking self-killing was obviously implicated in the abolition of the prince, if he wanted to close the case easily, how easy was it to say?
For a while, he seemed a little depressed, and after thinking for a long time, there was no good way, so he said:
"You and I will each state the truth and ask Doctor Qin for guilt!"
According to Yan Zhuang's previous temperament, he will definitely push Yuan Yizhen out at the most critical time to be a scapegrat and shield. However, an intuition told him that Qin Jin was not An Lushan, and he might not be able to handle affairs according to his expectations, and once he didn't do it well, it would be self-defeating.
Thinking of all this, it is better to admit mistakes in a down-to-earth manner, and perhaps there is room for relaxation.
Yuan Yizhen looked at Yan Zhuang with some puzzlement, this Da Yin didn't look like a person who dared to take responsibility, he was also worried that Yan Zhuang would push himself as a scapegoat in order to protect himself, but now it seems that he intends to bear it with himself.
In this way, Yuan Yizhen was a little apologetic, in the final analysis, Yan Zhuang's responsibility is also the responsibility of negligence, which can be big or small, and now he is solemnly going to ask Qin Jin for guilt, which makes him very uneasy in his heart, and he is very unhappy.
"Da Yin, this matter is all because of the subordinates' own cleverness, since it is irreparable, why should Da Yin be implicated again?"
Yan Zhuang smiled bitterly:
"I don't want to be implicated, can't I be implicated? The pen and ink are all here, hurry up and write the details, follow me to the Shenwu Army Shuai Hall!"
Yuan Yizhen didn't want to give up, and said:
"Subordinates, subordinates go to the government hall to find the two ministers, no matter which ministers see the official documents, subordinates, subordinates, even if they use their strength to eat, they must be persuaded ...... Ask for that official document back, and as for the notice, just say, just say that it was posted in error......"
"Stupid! Jingzhao Mansion posted a notice, is it child's play? This kind of excuse, you should be credible in the world?"
Among them, there is another reason, that is, Yan Zhuang knew very well in his heart that he was sitting in the position of Jing Zhaoyin, which hindered the affairs of Xia Yuanji and Fifth Qi, and it was only because of Qin Jin's support that they did not object, they wished that they had a problem and lost their official positions, how could they give up the opportunity to others?
"Forget it, those two ministers in the political hall wish I died, how could they let you and me go?
After thinking about it again and again, Yan Zhuang still picked up the pen and wrote a line of neat handwriting on the paper, and after about half an hour, he lifted the paper with both hands and blew the ink that had not dried. When he raised his head, he saw that Yuan Yizhen was still holding a pen in painful contemplation.
"Hurry up, it's late, maybe the messenger who asks for sin will arrive in Jingzhao Mansion!"
"No, it won't, Doctor Qin's envoy will, will it be so soon?"
Before the words fell, he saw the book and rushed into the middle hall in a panic.
"Da Yin, Da Yin, Doctor Qin's messenger has arrived......"
Shu Lingshi's voice was not loud, but when it fell on the ears of Yan Zhuang and Yuan Yizhen, it was like a thunderbolt, and at this moment, the despair spread, even exceeding the fear itself.
"Quick, please!"
After saying these words with difficulty, Yan Zhuang's body also softened, and he knew that today's catastrophe could not be avoided no matter what.
Soon, a military officer was led to the central hall.
"Dare to ask, which one is Jingzhao Shao Yin Yuanfujun?"
The military officer asked several times in a row, and Yuan Yizhen reacted, and when he got up in a hurry, he brought the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the official case all over the ground. But at this moment, he didn't care about any gaffes, and quickly bowed down and saluted with a stiff smile.
"I, I am ......"
The officer obviously didn't expect that the guy in front of him who was flustered and had a lewd face turned out to be a dignified Jingzhao Shaoyin, but he quickly returned to normal and said:
"Doctor Qin is invited, please go to the Shenwu Army Marshal Hall immediately, there is something important!"
He spoke very succinctly, not even a word.
"Dare to ask, dare to ask the general, what did Doctor Qin call me ......?"
Before he finished speaking, the military officials had already walked out of the middle hall of Jingzhao Mansion and walked away, leaving only two people who were at a loss to stare at each other.
"Big, Da Yin, this, how is this good?"
Yuan Yizhen looked at Yan Zhuang with an inquiring and asking for help, Yan Zhuang was also a foggy person, but after all, he was a person who had gone through strong winds and waves, and when he saw that the messenger did not mention himself, he had already guessed seven or eight points, and this matter had nothing to do with him, so he let go of at least a few points in his heart, so he comforted:
"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and the messenger will come politely, although the attitude is cold, but it is not necessarily a bad thing!"
Of course, these words were of a comforting nature, but how could Yuan Yizhen take comfort seriously, and in the end he also felt that he couldn't hide if he wanted to, so he had to put the unfinished pleadings into his waist, and solemnly waved to Yan Zhuang, and shook it.
Yuan Yizhen soon arrived at the Shenwu Military Marshal Hall, and after informing him of his name and official position, the guards guarding the gate let him in, and at the same time, someone led him to the back hall of Qin Jin's daily office.
Of course, the architectural form here is not as spacious as the Jingzhao Mansion, even if it is Qin Jin's daily office, there is no way to compare it with the Jingzhao Mansion, the light inside is a little dim, and it took him a while to get used to this slightly darkened environment when he came in from the bright outside.
"The subordinate Jingzhao Shao Yin Yuan visited the Imperial Doctor with a pillow ......"
Qin Jin jumped up to the desk to deal with the official documents, and when he heard the sound, he glanced up at him, and then pointed to the couch next to him.
"Let's sit down first, dispose of the official documents at hand, you and I will talk in detail!"
Yuan Yizhen was trembling and trembling, thinking that the end of the world had come, but now seeing Qin Jin's attitude so calm, he doubted the previous worries for a while.
As soon as he sat down, a servant in the army brought a pot of tea, and the bright and transparent tea soup was slowly poured into the delicate celadon cup, and the sound of rushing water made Yuan Yizhen feel unreal.
Hold up the half-hot celadon cup, put it between the lips and already smell a faint fragrance, this is the tea that has recently spread in Beijing, it is said that Dr. Qin personally improved the method of making tea, from the previous fermentation to a simple fried drying, the method of drinking is no longer grinding and boiling, adding spices...... Just a pot of boiling water can brew such a delicious and elegant tea soup, which is really a rare good thing!
With his head down, he only took two sips when he heard a voice saying:
"Yuan Shaoyin, can this tea be good for the spleen and stomach?"
woke up suddenly, Yuan Yizhen found out that it was Doctor Qin, and he just got up in a hurry, but was held down by Qin Jin.
"No formality, I'm tired of sitting for a long time, so I'm free to walk around, you just sit there!"
"Yes, yes, yes. The subordinates obey the doctor's orders......"
"Do you know why you came here?"
"Subordinates, subordinates don't know!"
Qin Jin suddenly raised his voice.
"What did you do, I heard that the murderer of King Chen Liuwang has been caught?"
This question was too sudden, Yuan Yizhen's heart trembled suddenly, and he said in his heart: What should come should always come. He made a heart, got up from the table, took a few steps back, and fell to his knees.
"The subordinate is guilty, the murderer is, it was the subordinate who understood the wrong words of General Gao Lang and arrested him indiscriminately!"
"Misunderstanding is wrong, it's wrong!"
"Okay?"
Hearing this, Yuan Yizhen raised his head suspiciously, looked at Qin Jin, and almost couldn't believe his ears, listening to the tone it didn't seem to be asking, but why didn't he ask?
"That's right, you have done a good job in this matter, I am afraid that you also know who the real murderer is, if the truth is made public, the impact may not stop there! I believe that soon, the assassination of King Chen Liuwang will be closed, and no one will make a fuss about this matter again!"
Until this time, Yuan Yizhen finally understood that he was not convicted of making decisions without authorization, but also handed over good luck, this time to the Shenwu Army Marshal's Hall, I am afraid it will be a blessing or a curse!
"The subordinate just wants to do his part for the doctor, and he is always sincerely afraid, for fear of doing something wrong, and betraying the doctor's trust and attention......"
Qin Jin helped Yuan Yi up and let him sit back on the couch.
"It's not just for this reason that you came here, but there is a more important errand for you!"
"Errand, hand it over to the subordinates?"
Yuan Yizhen thought that he had misheard, and subconsciously repeated a sentence. Qin Jin nodded and said:
"Yes, it's another errand......"
Jingzhao Mansion, since Yuan Yizhen left, Yan Zhuang has become more and more restless, he doesn't know what Qin Jin called Yuan Yizhen to do in the past, and he doesn't know that Yuan Yizhen will say something that shouldn't be said in the face of criticism or even consideration. Now, he can only wait anxiously, waiting for all this dust to fall. Perhaps, by then, all the blessings and curses will be known.
"Da Yin, Da Yin ......"
Just as he was worried, suddenly a book made Shi rush in and burst in.
