Chapter 181: Funny
Interesting....
There can be many understandings, but there is only one result, funny or not funny.
No one in the room could laugh right now.
Qi Xiu said: "Grandpa, I understand what you mean, at this time, it is not easy to catch the people in the Yulou, the people inside are too complicated, and a little carelessness will cause a riot." "Or maybe that's what the murderers intended, and they're waiting to stir up public opinion." β
Just like Liao Cheng last time, it was not so much in the hands of the people of Chang'an Mansion as in the hands of Wang Lieyang's faction in the court.
Duan Shan is their person, Wang Lieyang and his party should be happy to give him a ride, and it would be better to send some others by the way.
Song Yuan understood and said: "Then you can't help but arrest it, the person is dead, of course the people present have to investigate, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, this is not what they often say about the civil officials and imperial historians, it is their turn to deny it, even when I go to the court, I can tell this truth, see what he Wang Lieyang says." He said fiercely, "Maybe I will take the opportunity to arrest Wang Lieyang as well." β
"If only everything in the world was as easy as Lord Song said. Qi Xiu sneered.
Song Yuan was also anxious, and did not be in awe of the civil officials as usual, and said: "I don't just say, I still want to do it, I want to arrest people, unlike you who say you don't say and do it." β
Duan Shan is the best knife under Song Yuan, no one can compare with the torture to extract confessions, there is Duan Shan in many times Song Yuan only needs to move his mouth, relaxed, now that this knife is gone, it is normal for him to be mad.
The dispute in the hall made the atmosphere tense, and everyone's hearts were in chaos, today's events were really too sudden, and they had been at ease, but they didn't expect to be suddenly pulled out of a big tooth.
Qin Tan said fairly: "There is no argument about this, don't arrest people, it's not that you don't ask, check and remember these people, whoever should be arrested in the future will be arrested, the other party has a pit, isn't it the same that we build a board and step over?"
Everyone responded that Song Yuan and a few men hurried away, leaving only Qi Xiu, Qin Tangong stood up, and heard their arguments and whispers, as well as Song Yuan's shouts from time to time, "I'm angry." β
Qi Xiu looked at Qin Tangong, who got up, and hesitated for a moment and said, "Grandpa is angry..."
Qin Tan said fairly: "I'm not angry, we kill people, people kill us, there's nothing to be angry about." "Step forward.
Qi Xiu followed with a gloomy face and said: "Although Duan Shan is not as advanced as Zong Zhou's right-hand man, he is very alert and can kill him silently, this murderer is extremely powerful, although Song Yuan controls Tingyulou, he may not be able to catch the murderer." β
Qin Tan said fairly: "Catching the murderer is never the most important thing. β
Qi Xiu looked at Qin Tangong.
Qin Tangong stepped over the threshold, looked at the courtyard with bright lights as day, and said: "Just like Duan Shan did, if he wants to catch the murderer, will he have to wait until now? β
Qin Tangong walked towards the back house, and Qi Xiu didn't follow and stood in place.
The so-called head...
"Emperor Baozhang?" he said, holding his hand together and shaking his head again, "Duan Shan did that.... If you had arrested someone earlier, you wouldn't have had their heads cut off and died in vain. β
Those who should be arrested still have to be caught!
.....
.....
There was chaos in the rain building, but there was no crying and noise.
"Don't crowd, just stand still. β
"Find out who's coming again. β
"Similar suspects who dare to walk around. β
A group of officers and soldiers separated the crowd and the people from the criminal department conducted an interrogation, and when they saw that some people had been released after questioning, the rest of the people were much more relieved.
"Master Jiang.. You don't have to be searched. β
An official smiled and reached out to hold Jiang Xian's arm to undress.
"All you have to ask is where, with whom, and who is testifying. β
Jiang Xian said: "This question is too simple, isn't it? Don't you go to the prison to check it out?"
Song Yuan snorted on the side and said, "There are too many people, there is no place in the prison." β
Jiang Xian looked at him coldly, Song Yuan did not shy away from his cold face, the official smiled on the side, and said: "Lord Jiang, take care of it, this matter is really not trivial, and everyone can't help it." β
Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Jiang Xian's tone softened, and said: "Of course, this matter is not trivial, the noisy place at the feet of the Son of Heaven is in full view, and the court officials are killed, if you don't strictly investigate the people's hearts." β
The official nodded solemnly and said, "Your Excellency is right. β
Jiang Xiandao: "But you can't arrest people indiscriminately, causing the people to panic, but you may be taken advantage of by the murderers to escape." β
"With Lord Jiang here to suppress the formation, the people's hearts can be calm. The official said solemnly.
Jiang Xiandao: "Come on, check how you want, everyone is the same now." Looking at the officials of the criminal department standing on the side, "Today I am with Kang Dai..."
The official stepped aside, and the clerk quietly took notes, asking a few questions from time to time.
"Also, it's my nephew over there. Jiang Xian said again, "And those are the students of Chang'an Mansion, well, a few of them who have a Keju race with Xiliang people, you all know, Keju won the game, and they have been recuperating for many days, today they are going to get together for a meal, and I don't worry about letting them young people have fun in the restaurant, so let them come in front of them." β
The clerk nodded, looking at the dozen or so teenagers who had already stood up, and someone went to register their names and asked them where they were and what they were doing at the time, and whether they were all there, and the teenagers answered one by one, and some guys testified, but...
"He wasn't there at the time of the incident. The man said with a shudder, pointing to a teenager.
As a guy in the Beijing restaurant, he is well-informed and knows the best way to ask the criminal department, and those torture officials dare not deceive, if there is a little omission, even if it is innocent, it can kill you.
"What's your name?" the scribe looked at the boy warily.
"Xue Qing. The boy said.
......
......
"Xue Qing!"
Song Yuan, who was standing over there, immediately turned his head and said in a loud voice.
"Sure enough, you..."
Before he finished his words, Jiang Xian said: "He was with us at the time of the incident. β
Kang Dai motioned for Xue Qing to come over and said, "Yes, I'll call him, everyone should listen to his poems." β
The previous official stopped Song Yuan, who was about to speak, looked at Xue Qing who came over, and said, "Do you compose poems? I don't know what poems I made?"
Jiang Xian's side said: "Shangyuan words, but unfortunately there is only one sentence, and it was interrupted by this matter." He looked regretful and a little annoyed, as if it was not the right time for Duan Shan to die.
One of the men testified in a low voice, and when he opened the door and invited them to watch the performance, the young man was reciting poetry, and he even remembered what he was reading.
"Thousands of trees bloom at night in the east wind. The man muttered, although he was not interested in poetry, but he didn't know why he remembered this poem so well, probably because when he heard this poem, he turned his head and saw the scene of blood gushing from the head to the ground was too profound.
At that moment, it was really as if a tree suddenly bloomed with countless flowers, dazzling and gorgeous.
The official in charge of the inquiry did not have this feeling, and only simply and straightforwardly recorded that Duan Shantou was composing poems at the time, and who and who were the guys at that time as evidence, paused here when he wrote, raised his head and looked around at Jiang Xian and the others, and said: "Then you have been together from beginning to end, and no one has left?"
Jiang Xian and the others all nodded.
It doesn't count if you go to the thatched house, there is another person who says to himself in his heart, how can he kill someone in such a short time to go to the thatched house, and he laughs again, this is not a matter of time....
Several scribes checked the records, and then checked Song Yuandao: "There is no problem." β
Song Yuan only pretended not to hear, and the previous official carefully read the document and said with a smile: "Lord Jiang, you can leave." β
Jiang Xiandao: "Have you checked it? But you have to check it out, otherwise it won't be so easy for us to come back and check after we leave." β
The official smiled: "Your Excellency said it was a joke. However, he did not promise that he would not inquire again, and as for whether he would inquire in the future, he would have his own way of doing so.
Jiang Xian didn't bother with his vague words, and if he wanted to inquire in the future, he would have his own way to deal with it in the future, so he brushed his sleeves and said, "Let's go." β
A group of people walked out, and the teenagers naturally followed.
"It's really a disappointment today, I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing..."
"No, this kind of thing is hard to come by, and it's even rarer..."
The teenagers laughed in a low voice, Xue Qing looked back, and several servants in the patio were still investigating the scene, not letting go of an inch of grass, trees, and soil, Duan Shan's body was covered and was about to be carried away.
"Misahiro, keep up. Chu Minghui said.
Xue Qing responded by retracting his gaze and crossing the threshold.
Walking out of the noisy and brightly lit Tingyu Building, it was like another world, and the originally bustling street market had no one but the officers and soldiers all over the place, and the shops were closed and dark.
Not only this street, but the entire capital was under martial law at this time, and the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps and fierce torches spread and shuttled through the city.
But there was no doubt about whether they could catch people, and a few officials stood on the street and watched the people who kept coming out through the inspection hurrying away.
"This murderer is not easy to catch. An official said.
"Because it's Lord Duan who died. Another official followed.
Song Yuanzheng walked out, heard it and said angrily: "What's wrong with Lord Duan? Isn't Duan Shan dead?"
Another official coughed lightly and said, "Not much.... It's just that it's hard to say. β
Song Yuan was annoyed.
.....
......
The night crushed by the horse's hooves gradually dissipated, and the morning light gradually returned.
After the night, except for the closure of the rain building, the other shops were open as usual, and the hawkers continued to sell as usual, and the people on the street gradually increased, although their expressions were cautious, and they looked the same as usual.
But there's still something different.
The sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded in one direction, and the quiet and tense early morning was very scary.
"What's going on?"
"It's almost March, what firecrackers are you ordering?"
Quite a few people inquired and quickly looked in one direction.
It was a faΓ§ade facing the street, an old woman was standing by the door, a firecracker was bursting on the ground, she was still holding a few in her hand, and she was throwing them down one by one seriously and attentively.
Why do old people like to play with firecrackers like children?
What's more, it's not good at this time, firecrackers are used to express happiness when they are happy events.....
"I'm glad. The old woman said, throwing a firecracker out, and raising her voice, "Good luck!
With her shouting, firecrackers exploded.
What is the good luck to be happy about..... The people on the street were a little stunned, this old woman must not be a madman, right? Someone was about to come forward and question, but someone was holding back.
"Shhhh It's Mrs. Qi..."
Which old lady Qi?
"The mother of Boss Qi of Dachengfang. β
Dachengfang.
There are countless shops in the capital, Dachengfang is not famous, a small shop for several generations to operate to feed a family, the days are rich, a few days ago, the shops in the capital are also closed, these are not enough to cause ripples in the big lake in the capital, but Dachengfang is known by everyone.
"Boss Qi was arrested by Duan Shan...... Said it was colluding with the Assassins......"
β.. But it was miserable, his feet were cut off, and he died three days after he came back......"
Accompanied by low discussions, the onlookers on the street looked at the old woman with a sympathetic expression.
The old woman had already finished lighting the firecrackers, and instead of going away, she took out another pile of paper money and lit it.
"Son, good fortune, rejoice!" she cried out again, "God has eyes, and great revenge must be avenged." β
Wow..... Hearing this, the people on the street couldn't help but rush forward anymore.
"Grandma Qi, don't do this. β
"Grandma Qi, this is too dangerous, and the murderer is still being tracked..."
Everyone persuaded, the sound of horses' hooves came from the street, a team of officers and soldiers surged, and the people here were suddenly startled and subconsciously retreated, but the old woman Qi didn't seem to see and hear, she still squatted on the ground and lit a string of paper money, and used her own crutches to pick up the flames as if setting up a bonfire, and the confetti and ashes flew wildly.
"What are you doing?" the officers and soldiers shouted at their horses.
The old woman Qi looked at the dancing flames with joy on her face, and said, "Duan Shan is dead, Duan Shan is dead, it's really a great joy, a great joy." β
The atmosphere on the street instantly froze, and the expressions of the officers and men became even more gloomy.
"You.." The leading officers and soldiers shouted.
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by the old woman, her wrinkled face was full of energy, and she stretched out her hand to point at herself: "I, I am the murderer, I am the murderer." She threw down her crutches and stumbled towards the officers and soldiers, "Arrest me, arrest me, I'm a murderer." β
The people on the side of the street were dumbfounded, and the officers and soldiers also frowned, and one of the officers and soldiers whispered a few words to the officers and soldiers led by him, and pointed to the shop here, and the officers and soldiers led by him understood, and their faces became a little annoyed.
"Fuck off. He shouted, whipping his whip backhanded.
The old woman who pounced on her was pumped and fell to the ground, and the people around screamed in exclamation, although they were afraid of the officers and soldiers, but some people still rushed out to support and protect the old woman.
Fortunately, the officers and soldiers did not whip again, nor did they dismount and arrest people, so they threw down a madman hula and galloped away along the street.
"Don't go, arrest me, I'm a murderer. The old woman Qi couldn't get up and crawled and shouted.
The crowd rushed up to surround her and support her.
"Why are you so troubled? β
"Don't be like this, there are grandchildren to take care of.."
The old woman Qi struggled and said, "Duan Shan is dead, Duan Shan is dead." Laughing and crying, "This is a great joy, this is God's eyes, this is a benefactor." She crawled forward and beckoned in the direction of the galloping officers and soldiers, "Arrest me, arrest me, I'm a murderer, I can't kill Duan Shan if I don't need to, just let me die for my benefactor." β
The neighbors standing on the side understood, yes, for the old woman Qi, the person who killed Duan Shan was the benefactor.
The old woman Qi couldn't crawl with all her might, and finally fell to the ground, crying and laughing and kowtowing.
"Benefactor, benefactor, benefactor must live well, benefactor must live well, the old woman is willing to exchange her life for ah. β
More and more people gathered on the street, looking at this scene with mixed feelings, suddenly there was the sound of firecrackers, wouldn't it? The people on the street followed the sound, but before they could find the direction of the sound, there were more and more firecrackers, more and more, one after another in all directions.
The people on the street were stunned, and their scalps immediately went numb.
.....
.....
"It is said that after Junchen's death back then, the flesh of the enemy Junchen must be wiped out. The people said that they were quick and congratulated each other on the road, which is what it is today. Chen Sheng said.
In the morning light, he did not stand in the vegetable garden with a hoe as usual, but stood in the hall in court clothes, standing solemnly in front of Kang Dai and others.
"Duan Shan is dead, His Majesty the Emperor who is definitely going to quarrel with Wang Xiangye and Grandpa Qin has a headache, so I will go to court today for Your Majesty's worries. β
