Qin Jue is talking about a case with Huo Xing, this case is a former governor of Hunan, who killed his wife and brother because of trivial matters, and his wife and brother have a reputation for raising people. When the case was handed over to the Criminal Department, the 100,000 troops were in Hunan, and there was chaos in all parts of Hunan, and many prisoners in the prison died and fled, and the whereabouts of the governor were unknown.

The case was suppressed in the Criminal Department, but two months ago, a relative of the governor's Yue family who lived in the capital went to the Criminal Department to complain, saying that he had met the governor in the capital.

A petty official with sesame mung beans, no one in the criminal department or the official department knows what he looks like, how to arrest people?

The case was transferred from the Criminal Department to Shuntianfu, and the people of Shuntianfu were asked to deal with this relative.

But unexpectedly, not long ago, Jinyiwei suddenly sent someone over, saying that the governor was caught by them, and now he is locked up in the edict prison, so that this relative can go to recognize the person, and at the same time, the case was transferred back to the criminal department from Shuntianfu.

Huo Xing is rigorous and meticulous, he suddenly felt that this matter was a little strange, although Jin Yiwei had to arrest a few people every few days, they would never meddle in their affairs. This is just a murder case caused by a rivalry, because the murderer and the killed are both meritorious or official, so it was re-taken out by the Criminal Department and transferred to Shuntianfu, this is just an ordinary criminal case, how did it attract the attention of Jinyiwei?

Huo Xing didn't dare to slack off, and personally accompanied the relative to the edict to recognize people.

From the officials to the common people, they all think that Jinyiwei's edict is comparable to the eighteenth layer of hell, but this is just a legend, and most people have never seen it.

This relative is just a thin showman, and he is okay with his words, when he came out of the criminal department, he was still vibrating, but as soon as he stepped into the prison, his legs trembled with fright.

The sun was shining outside, but inside the prison was gloomy and gray, and from time to time the screams of the prisoners came, and the air was filled with blood. Where had that relative seen this formation, if it weren't for Huo Xing who didn't look like a good match, he would have turned around and ran.

At this time, two fierce brocade guards came over and led them to a cell.

I saw a prisoner hanging from the beam with an iron chain, his whole body had been beaten to no good place, his face was blurred with blood, and he couldn't see his true face at all.

A brocade guard pointed at the relative and shouted, "Do you see if this is Liu Changdong?"

His relatives had grown up so big, and he had never seen someone beaten like this, and he even suspected that this was already a dead person.

He was so frightened that he hid behind Huo Xing, and said tremblingly, "I don't know." ”

Jinyiwei pulled him out, dragged him to the bloody man, and shouted, "Take a closer look, is it the person you are looking for!"

The relative was so frightened that he almost urinated, and mustered up the courage to look at the man, and his eyes just fell on the man's face, and the man suddenly opened his mouth at him, and this time, the relative could see clearly, the man's tongue was actually ripped out by Qi Gen.

He exclaimed, and was reprimanded by Jinyiwei: "What is the name of the ghost, if you can't recognize it clearly, just stay here for a few more days and recognize it well." ”

The three souls of relatives went to Qilu, this ghost place, he didn't dare to stay for a moment, he hurriedly nodded: "It's him, this is Liu Changdong, that's right." ”

When Huo Xing came back from the Imperial Prison, he went to see Qin Jue and told Qin Jue that the relative had been detained in the Imperial Prison, and confirmed that the person was Liu Changdong.

Qin Jue heard him tell him about the matter, and scolded in his heart: Zou Shang, you are a wretch, where did you get a person and stuff it to me.

But he scolded and scolded, but he couldn't tell Huo Xing, so he could only let Huo Xing go to prison again and let Liu Changdong also draw the detention, and the case was closed, and Liu Changdong was beheaded after the autumn.

Thinking of the autumn queen asking for a beheading, Qin Jue sneered, Zou Shang was afraid that he hoped that he could give a decisive decision.

At this moment, Liao Yun came. Liao Yun had heard Chang Yifan say before that Huo Xing was transferred to the Criminal Department, when he came in, Huo Xing happened to go out, the two of them had been old acquaintances as early as their youth, and they were slightly stunned when they saw each other, and then nodded, which was regarded as a greeting.

Looking at Huo Xing's back and walking away, Liao Yun said to Qin Jue: "This Huo Changsun is still so serious. ”

Qin Jue was amused by his title of "Huo Changsun", and asked, "I heard that you came back yesterday, why did you come back from the yamen so soon?"

Liao Yun has been gone for two or three years, and it stands to reason that there should be a lot of things to deal with in the yamen.

Liao Yun sighed, and then told the matter of meeting Gao Yun in detail, and said: "I knew this, I might as well stay in Fujian, the 100,000 army has not yet reached Fujian, the Japanese people were afraid of being beaten a few years ago, and they have not committed it again, if it weren't for the imperial court to stop the warship, I would like to take my family over." ”

Qin Jue squinted at him: "You like shipbuilding so much?"

Liao Yundao: "I'm not a craftsman, where can I build ships, that is, I know a little bit about it, and I can see whether those craftsmen have cut corners." You also know my background, Gao Yun will be impeached for sitting on the first assistant, not to mention me? I don't want to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, and I can be promoted to the middle of the Lang Lang I have enough wishes. ”

Qin Jue snorted, pretending not to hear his insincerity, and said to Liao Yun: "Since you want to go back to Fujian, then I will help you, but after that, you will stay honest in Fujian, don't be half-hearted." ”

Liao Yun's heart froze, what does Qin Jue mean by this?

However, since Qin Jue agreed to help, he was still very happy.

Originally, he wanted to call Qin Jue, and then Chang Yifan, and go to Tianxianglou to have a good gathering at night, but Qin Jue said that he still had something to do, so Liao Yun had to go with Chang Yifan.

Tianxianglou was opened by Chang Siniang, she took her two children to Yangzhou, and it was handed over to the shopkeeper.

When the shopkeeper heard that his uncle was coming, he personally came out to greet them and found them an elegant and quiet private room.

Since he came to Tianxianglou, Liao Yun asked about Li Qingfeng, Chang Yifan said: "My sister and children are not in the capital, he has less to worry about, and people are free. ”

Liao Yun was stunned and hurriedly asked, "Sister Ling and the children are not in the capital?"

Chang Yifan said: "They went to Yangzhou to keep their bodies weak, the water and soil in the south of the Yangtze River are good, and my brother-in-law asked them to live in Yangzhou for a few more years and then come back." ”

Liao Yun's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "If we talk about water and soil, our water and soil in Yangzhou are to raise people, since Sister Ling took the child to go, why didn't you let your sister-in-law and the children go to Yangzhou to play?"

Chang Yifan raised his hand and patted his head, it was too tiring to talk to smart people!

He has always been cheerful, since Liao Yun is suspicious, he no longer hides it, and tells the truth: "My brother-in-law is just a businessman, let alone sending his wife and children away, even if he moves all his business to Yangzhou, no one will say anything." I'm different, your sister-in-law is also an official lady, we can't just leave. Lao Anren meant that he wanted Erbao to go with my sister, but your sister-in-law was reluctant, and Erbao was not yet one year old at that time. ”

Whether it is the Chang family or the Zhuang family, even if they want to save a little bit of blood and bones, they can only be the second son, not the eye-catching eldest son.

At this time, Liao Yun still didn't understand anything, he asked, "I remember you said that Shen Yan, the son of the Marquis of Xiaoyong, went to Tianjin Wei?"

Chang Yifan nodded and did not speak.

Liao Yun said: "Today I went to the Criminal Department, and Yuzhang said that he would help me return to Fujian......"
