Chapter 331: Choking and Burying

Kumoti opened a government office in the Taishou Mansion to try Wang Jin's case, and as soon as the government opened, the yamen was almost squeezed by the onlookers of Chang'an.

In addition, countless people came to complain, including the exiled people who heard that Wang Jin had been overthrown and returned to Chang'an to complain.

Since Wang Jin took office as the general of Chang'an Town, there have been more than 20 unofficial families, most of which are merchant families with no foundation, and there are also many nobles of Xia who have been implicated because of the defeat.

Many of the men of these families were exiled to serve in the border gates, and the female dependents were punished as lowly status, or simply sold into official dormitories as slaves, and only a few escaped.

In addition, Wang Jin looted rare treasures, arbitrarily conscripted people to serve, and the people of Chang'an were unbearable, and even fled south to Hanchuan, where there were thousands of families.

These crimes are all evidenced by human and material evidence, and those merchants who have been wronged and confiscated have indeed been wronged after Kumoti's investigation, so that in addition to Wang Jin's inciting the army to rebel and attempting to murder Mulan, there is also one more crime of "corrupting the law".

The most important thing for Wei is the population, and running away from thousands of families is a huge loss for Wei, and Kumoti changed his face in the spot.

Wang Jin pleaded not guilty to all the crimes, and the case could not be tried in one day, Kumoti and You Ya discussed for a while, first pressed Wang Jin down, and You Ya sorted out all the old unjust, false and wrongful cases, and then the amnesty of the pardon, the re-registration of those who were punished into lowly status, and the women who were sold, all had to be redeemed.

This is a very great project, and Kumoti is in a hurry to quell the rebellion of the Qiang and Hutu people, and there is simply no time to ink here. And You Ya happened to be obsessed with adjudicating cases, handling cases, and understanding the people's feelings, and he also intended to teach his nephew You Ke, so the two buried themselves in the files, intending to return the wronged people of Chang'an to a clean slate.

This time, the two parties hit it off, Tuoba Tao sent You Yalai, who was good at litigation, also had the intention of correcting unjust, false and wrongful cases, Kumoti went to reorganize the army, and You Ya continued to try so many unjust cases caused by Wang Jin before, so as to facilitate the final conviction of Wang Jin.

Judging from Wang Jin's current crimes, the capital crime will definitely not be able to escape, but it is just the difference between beheading or hanging.

The troops escorted Helian Ding back to Beijing were scheduled to leave in three days, and Tuoba Su himself would send them to the border of Wei. Kumoti will go straight to Bingzhou a little later to quell the Qiang rebellion that was running between Qinzhou and Bingzhou.

On this day, heavy snow suddenly fell in Chang'an, and the entire Chang'an dropped down significantly, and even He Mulan was cold and put on a big coat borrowed from Gao Shen to keep out the cold.

Yucui thought of Di Ziyu in prison, so she begged He Mulan to send clothes to Di Ziyu in prison, He Mulan hesitated for a moment and readily agreed, and then the clothes were sent to prison.

Even Hermulan now has no access to the few felons who are being held in prison. In particular, Wang Jin and Di Ziyu and others have already been handed over to Kumoti. So He Mullan just gave the clothes to the old man in prison, and under her vicious threats, He Mullan got a promise that the other party would never enrich his own pockets, so he handed over the clothes and prepared to go back.

However, just as she was about to go back after handing over her clothes, she couldn't help but stop.

Because she heard a familiar voice.

The sound insulation in Chang'an's prison is actually not bad, otherwise so many prisoners cry and howl wolves every day, which simply drives the jailers crazy. But this layer is full of important prisoners, there are few people in the first place, and there was turmoil before the prison in Chang'an, many people have been cleaned up in the prison, and many people have died, so it seems even more empty and silent.

It was in this empty silence that Hermulan heard Kumoti questioning.

"Where did you get all that possessions?"

The so-called indecent don't see, don't smell indecent, He Mullan should have left quickly. But since she knew that there was Kumoti in the cell behind the corner, as soon as she left this corner, she would definitely be discovered by Kumoti's own soldiers guarding the door.

Even if she didn't eavesdrop on anything, she wouldn't be able to tell.

What's more, the search for the whereabouts of the looted treasure should have been held in a public court, rather than in a prison where no one has set foot in private, and this matter is too strange for Mullando to think.

So she moved slightly, hiding herself in a small corner, and after making sure that the staircase on her right hand was the cell where Wang Jin was, Hermulan carefully touched the side, and put her ear against the wall.

If Kumoti wanted to steal these treasures, no matter how much she had a good impression and respect for him, she would expose it.

So many innocent people and businessmen in Chang'an were ruined by Wang Jin's family, if the money can be recovered to compensate for one or two, maybe these people can live the second half of their lives.

But if this money is transferred to Kumoti's hands again, then Kumoti and Wang Jin are just the same kind of people after all.

He Mulan's five senses were much stronger than ordinary people, she listened attentively, and vaguely heard Wang Jin in the cell shouting in panic: "What property?" I don't understand what you're saying! "

"You have looted so many rare treasures, people's fat and people's ointment, but you and I searched the Taishou Mansion and found nothing you scavenged. Many officials said that they saw with their own eyes that the messengers of the Taishou Mansion Yamen moved the boxes into the official treasury, and the messengers also confirmed that this was indeed the case, but the things were gone, and if you didn't hide them, who would dare to touch the official treasury of Chang'an?"

Kumoti's voice was deep and deep, as if it had its own reverberation in this cell, and he didn't know much clearer than Wang Jin's voice.

The more He Mulan listened, the more his heart sank, if she had only before. [,! It's speculation, and now listening to Kumoti's words, he is indeed looking for the whereabouts of those things.

Wang Jin squeaked and whined, but he didn't speak. After a while, he suddenly asked, "Lord Wang, if I tell me the whereabouts of things, for the sake of my grandmother, can you spare my life?"

He Mulan held his breath.

"Wang Jin, you don't come here with me!" Kumoti seemed to be suddenly angry, "Don't think I don't know where the money went, who else can your Wang family be associated with, but it's just those people!" You're playing with fire**! If it weren't for your mother-in-law being my aunt, why should I care about you! "

His voice was stoic and tense: "I sue you, I can spare your life, but those who don't want you to tell the truth will not spare your life. If you don't tell me where those things are, you can take this secret to Biluo Yellow Spring! I'm not going to save you! "

"I gave it to my mother! I gave it to my mother! "

Wang Jin cried bitterly: "My aunt won't kill me, won't kill me!" You go and sue my mother, let my mother return those things, and redeem my life! "

After a long silence, Kumoti seemed to be unable to speak anymore, and the sound of Wang Jin crying as if he was about to die was constantly heard in Hemulan's ears, and his heart was shocked.

That princess Duanping has her own food estate, and she has a lot of rewards every year, and her husband's family is so prominent, her husband is dead, she can be said to control all the property of the Wang family, why do you want to use this method to collect wealth?

Who is Kumoti referring to by "those people"?

"You gave it to my aunt? Not those people?"

"No, start first, I just sent it back for my mother to keep, and then my mother wrote to me, saying that xx now needs money to supervise the manufacture of weapons, and let me try to send my chest again, so I sent it back twice one after another. I didn't think about it that much, my mother said that she would come back after the year, so I believed it, and I sent it back as much as she wanted......"

Wang Jin's voice was not very clear, many words were pieced together by He Mulan in connection with the next sentence, as for who asked for money to supervise the manufacture of weapons, He Mulan did not hear it.

But she's sure Kumoti must have heard.

After another silence, He Mulan suddenly heard Wang Jin shouting in panic: "This ...... What is this little bottle? What are you giving me this? I don't want it, I don't want it! "

With his exclamation, there was a crisp sound of landing, as if some jade had been broken.

The messy and inexplicable voice kept coming, as if Wang Jin was attacking Kumoti indiscriminately, and Kumoti was dodging, and Wang Jin's voice came one after another:

"You want to kill me, don't you? If you don't get the money, you want to kill me! "

"I knew you had bad intentions! If you want to save me, why bother to go through the trial and try the matter in private! "

"Why on earth are you trying to harm me? For that money? My aunt spoils me so much, don't kill me, my aunt will definitely give it to you! Don't kill me! "

Wang Jin's voice came later, and he cried again, obviously after attacking in anger, he found that he couldn't move Kumoti for half a minute, so he had to turn to pleading.

He Mullan had to cover his mouth with his hand to make sure he didn't scream.

"You idiot, what you just broke was the secret medicine I found for you. As long as you hide this, you will be like a fake death, I am telling the public that you have committed suicide in fear of sin, as long as you buy off the pretense, I can send you out of the city. You didn't believe me, and you dropped the medicine! "

Kumoti sneered. I'm really too lazy to mind your business, but I'm just the son of a cheap maid, and I really think that I have noble blood, and I dare to do something against me! "

"Big cousin's words...... Really?" Wang Jin's voice was so low that He Mullan couldn't hear it.

After that, Kumoti and Wang Jin didn't know what to say, Wang Jin neither resisted nor wailed, their voices were very low, and He Mulan could only occasionally hear Wang Jin's unstoppable thanks, and a kind of easy laughter that came from escaping.

He Mulan stayed in place for a while, until his feet were numb, and he heard the sound of the cell door being opened, so he tiptoed back to the next floor, found the cell head who had asked Di Ziyu to send clothes before, pretended to ask if the clothes were sent in, and talked nonsense with the other party for a long time, chatting about Chang'an's gossip.

He Mullan drank a little wine with the jailer, and after a while, she was sure that Kumoti must be gone, so she took out a few small silver horns from her bosom and stuffed them into the jailer's hand.

"I forgot to say hello to you, so I ran back again. It's best not to let others know about the fact that I send clothes to the Qiang people privately, because if I do, I will inevitably be called a 'colluding thief'. I'm also entrusted by someone to do this, and I can't shirk it, so my little brother will make it convenient and forget about it, okay?"

The jailer was naturally certain of the benefits of Hemulan, and as for whether he would not say it, He Mullan didn't care much.

All this jailer needs to do is prove that she is talking nonsense to him at this moment, and the matter of handing over clothes is really irrelevant.

There was no doubt that this incident had cast a heavy shadow on Hermulan's heart, and she could not even go out and ask what had happened.

But He Mulan had already made up her mind in her heart, if there was anything wrong with this Wang Jin in the future, she would definitely write a letter back to Tuoba Tao and ask the Egret Officer to investigate the matter thoroughly.

It is precisely because Kumoti is that kind of identity that he should not bend the law for personal gain and live up to Tuobatao's trust!

Because of this, He Mullan was in a daze and didn't sleep well all night. [,! Early in the morning, Chen Jie happily rushed in to report the news:

"General, General Naro is here!"

It was a great thing, and even the gloom caused by Kumoti's incident was temporarily thrown aside by her. Almost immediately, Hermulan jumped up and ran out the door.

"Where? Where's Luo Hun?"

Outside the bedroom, under the porch not far away, the person who was talking cordially with Mangu, who could it be if it wasn't Luo Hun?

He Mulan haphazardly put on his shirt and shoes and socks, and rushed over in a few steps.

"Na Luo Hun! It's just half a year since I see you, so why do I feel like I haven't seen you for a long time! "

Na Luo Hun followed Kumoti all the way south, and a few days ago he was still arranging the affairs of the Tiger Ben Army in the military camp outside Chang'an City, and he was almost busy yesterday, so he came to meet him early in the morning.

As soon as Na Luo Hun saw He Mulan, he immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted, no matter how He Mulan persuaded him to finish this salute, then he straightened up excitedly.

"Fire Chief, you really haven't forgotten me! You transferred me from Montenegro to Beijing, I don't know how many brothers I envy! "Narahun hugged Mullan after he finished the salute." As soon as I received your letter of appointment, I immediately set off with the Tiger Army! "

The newly established Tiger Ben Army is all the elite carefully selected from the original Black Mountain army, most of them are people from the Chinese army and the left army, and I don't know how many partial generals like Na Luohun have it, he has become a left guard with a formal rank, responsible for leading the guards, and is almost a real henchman, Hua Mulan values him so much, how can he not go to Beijing immediately for him?

He Mulan was naturally happy to see Na Luo Hun, she raised her head, looked at Na Luo and looked at her back, and couldn't help but show a disappointed expression: "Are you the only one?" Why didn't General Wang come?"

Then Luo Hun patted his head and took out a letter from his arms.

"General Wang didn't want to go to Beijing, so he asked me to send you a letter."

Na Luohun was illiterate, and while handing the letter to He Mulan, he said: "General Wang said that he has been at the border for a long time, and his roots are already there, why didn't General Wang come, what is written in the letter is very clear, and he said that you can know it at a glance."

He Mulan really admires the old boss, he has a noble character, and he has the vision and elegance of knowing people, and he is the captain of the tun cavalry for military training, He Mullan can be regarded as relieved.

And Wang Meng is already not confused this year, at his age, it is impossible to be promoted at the border pass, if he leads the troops to fight, he can't single out those young generals who are in their prime, but there is still danger. What he is best at is military training, and in the Tiger Army, he can also give full play to his greatest strengths.

But Na Luo Hun came, but General Wang did not come.

He Mulan was a little sad in his heart, and tore open General Wang's letter. She even felt a little self-defeating that General Wang must not trust her and did not think that she could give him a good future.

Although Montenegro was important in the past, but now it is a big defeat, His Majesty is bound to withdraw his troops and return to his hometown, and in the end, it is a problem for General Wang to have a few soldiers in his hands. Now the Tiger Ben Army is drawn from the long-fought army of Montenegro, which is the best proof.

But when she tore open the letter and began to read General Wang's letters, the sadness in her heart gradually dissipated.

Wang Meng first thanked Mulan for her trust, and was actually willing to use a veteran who stepped on the coffin one by one, and then told his thoughts.

Wang Meng knew that He Mulan was a rough man, and there was no delay in the whole letter, but it seemed like Xianbei was then discussed into Chinese, and the writing was also very similar to modern vernacular, so He Mulan looked at it and was kind.

"Now that Rouran has been defeated, it is a foregone conclusion that the Black Mountain camp will no longer be as important as it used to be. The generals with backgrounds in the DPRK have applied to be transferred to other places, and those who have some money at home have been working in all directions, and these people originally came for military merit, but now they continue to chase fame and fame, and they have left Montenegro one after another."

"Na Luo Hun is still young, I persuade him to look for you, and I am forty-three, more than half of my life, I should spend the rest of my life doing something meaningful."

"The country of Wei is so vast, although I often advise young people to go out and walk more, but I have spent most of my life in Montenegro, and I have long been accustomed to the wind and sand and desolate and majestic scenery outside the Saiwai, and I feel that the most beautiful thing in my heart is Montenegro. Now as long as I have a soldier under me, I will not leave this place."

"Yu Zhen guarded Montenegro for more than ten years, and knew the side of Zhuhu very well, although Rouran was defeated, it does not mean that there are no other miscellaneous Hu in the future. It is my honor and my responsibility to exchange the rest of my life for all the sons and daughters of Montenegro to stick to this place."

"Although the city is good, it is not what I want. I will die of old age in Montenegro, and I hope you will always remember Montenegro and stick to your Montenegro. Montenegro protects Sima Wang Meng, respectfully."

He Mullan held the letter, his eyes a little wet.

"General Wang...... Don't you want to go back to the Central Plains?"

"Fire chief, you don't know the situation in Montenegro right now."

Na Luo Hun returned to Montenegro as soon as he took the vacation, he is different from the left hand of Edan Zhiqi, Shan Zhiqi has been rewarded, and he has also received a large piece of land, and the rest of his life to be a field housekeeper is already his end. And Na Luo Hun is a martial artist, so he naturally hopes to continue to make contributions, so when he returns to Montenegro, he can't help but feel a little resentful in his heart.

He said with a calm face: "After Rouran was destroyed by the Great Khan, a large number of Rouran people and high-speed people poured into Monan, and His Majesty set up a ranch in Monan, allowing these people to graze here. Now that there is no war, the soldiers of Montenegro have also abandoned the military affairs, and the idle soldiers have repeatedly rubbed with the grazing Rouran people, and the general has been transferred. [,! After returning to Pingcheng, the new general of Montenegro did not take office, and the whole of Montenegro relied on a few generals of the town army to preside over ......"

He Mulan nodded.

"General Kumoti will go north after the beginning of spring, and Montenegro has become so chaotic in just half a year, when I see him, I must inform him."

"Hey, now that everyone in Montenegro wants to transfer out, and even the Rouran people don't call, what's the use of asking Montenegro? Now it is rumored everywhere in Montenegro that His Majesty will remove the Montenegrin camp and merge the Montenegrin soldiers into the Six Towns, so when the general comes, it will be mixed up with the qualifications for promotion, and it will not be long before he will be promoted again. Those who used to think about making meritorious deeds on the battlefield are now drunk in Montenegrin City, and the military families have not fought and have not returned home, which is the most painful thing in the world."

Narahun shook his head.

"There are also General Wang who decided not to leave, and ordered his subordinates to continue training every day. They always say that it is common for the Rouran people to rebel, and the Gaoche people do not distinguish between dignity and inferiority, and there will be a lot of incidents because of this, and they must continue to practice day and night if they go south one day, but there are very few people who listen. Some of the adults in the army said that General Wang, and if they preached like this, they were provoking the relationship between the Great Wei and the subordinates, and as time went by, General Wang and the others even talked a lot, let alone talk as loudly as before."

Chen Jie and Mangu both showed blank expressions.

"Don't you even have a word? Lao Tzu used to point at General Xia's nose and scold that it was okay! "

"Hey, if it weren't for General Xia maneuvering left and right, the right army wouldn't know what the chaos would be. There is still a place for the left army and the central army to go, and you don't know that our right army is from a poor background, and where there is money and someone can transfer it out, the one who complains the most."

That Luo Hun didn't seem to think that he would become like this after the battle, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Hey, Montenegro, it's not that Montenegro anymore. In a few years, I don't know what will become of it."

The experiences of Hermulan and Montenegro are closely related to the sound of the desert and the howl of the wolf seems to be still in her ears, and she will never forget the wild horses that made her fortune outside the Seychelles, and the days when she pursued the Rouran people with her comrades.

"No, Montenegro is still there." He Mulan clenched the letter in his hand and said in a trembling voice: "As long as the Black Mountain in our hearts does not fall, the Black Mountain camp will always be there."

He was silent. He is similar to Wang Meng, he has also been in Montenegro for countless years, and like Wang Meng, he has almost no time to think about starting a family in order to resist the Rouran people.

For Wang Meng, every soldier in the right army of Montenegro is his child, and he takes care of them like his own sons and nephews, answering their questions and providing help.

"Lao Tzu is bored in his heart, go out and scatter."

Mangu held back his voice and dropped a sentence, turned around and left.

Chen Jie was probably also sad in his heart, and when Luo Hun saw that the atmosphere in the room was not very good, he immediately regretted it: "We should be happy when we meet again today, but it's me who is not good, so everyone is not comfortable."

He Mulan has always respected everyone's choice, not to mention that General Wang's insistence is the reason why she respects him so much, and she also hopes that Montenegro will be good, so even if she still has doubts about Kumoti in her heart, she still said to Na Luohun:

"Then Luo Hun, did you report about the matter of Montenegro when you came with General Kumoti?"

Narahun shook his head.

"I'm just a lieutenant who hasn't joined the army yet, where can I get close to the general? However, there are several junior generals of the former Chinese army in the Tiger Army, all of whom were summoned by General Kumoti to ask, and as for whether they have said anything about Montenegro, then I don't know."

"Is that so......"

He pondered for a moment and nodded.

"I see, I saw him today about this, and I mentioned it a little."

As soon as He Mulan's words fell, he saw Gai Wu running into the courtyard in a panic, followed by a few Lu Shuihu people.

Gai Wu was rarely so flustered, and He Mulan took a closer look and saw that he was coming from the direction of the front ya, and he was even more strange: "Gai Wu, what are you running?"

"Master, Wang Jin is dead!"

Gai Wu looked like he had seen a ghost.

"Choked on eating this morning!"

"Huh?"

Hermulan was dumbfounded.

"Choking?"

"Yes, in the morning, there was a mess in front of the ya, and the envoys and princes went to see it, and it was Wang Jin himself who died, and he was indeed choked to death."

Gai Wu ran all the way, gasping for words." General, will the people think that we are cheating? King Changshan said that he wanted to parade the corpse on the street, but King Yingchuan said that the evidence of the crime was not yet conclusive, and he strongly opposed it, and the two had already argued! "

When He Mulan heard this, he immediately wanted to go forward, but after thinking about it, he stopped.

She is different from Tuoba Su and Tuobati, she is neither the imperial envoy who investigates the case, nor the person in charge of the town guard, how Wang Jin should be convicted, and how to deal with it if he dies, she has no position to put her beak.

However, it is the high profundity of the captain of Chang'an Town, who can justifiably participate in this matter.

King Yingchuan and King Changshan did not dispute and came to a conclusion, and You Ya did not have the heart to judge the case, and the day was almost a mess.

Tuoba Su seemed to think that it was really strange that Wang Jin choked to death, so he hurriedly wrote a letter and sent it to Beijing, and sent Gao Shen to lead the guards to guard Wang Jin's body, and even Kumoti was not allowed to approach.

Kumoti didn't go to see Wang Jin's corpse again, but left the Taishou Mansion directly and went to the camp of the Yingyang army outside the city, it seemed that he was angry with Tuoba Su during the day and didn't want to care about it anymore.

I only pity the other deputy envoy You Ya, while trying to solve the mess left by Wang Jin before, and at the same time knowing that the dead people cannot be convicted. [,! This matter must be closed in the end, and I even have the heart to hit the wall.

"General Flower, what are you doing here......

Gao Shen led He Mulan, who came alone, to the mortuary, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I've heard that you have the ability to penetrate the occult, so you won't ......"

Gao Shen began to think about it.

He Mulan was amused by Gao Shen's strange expression and timbre, and shook his head again and again: "No, I'm just curious about the cause of Wang Jin's death, come and take a look."

If it comes to autopsy, her skills are unparalleled in this world.

Gao Shen's expression immediately became strange: "What's so beautiful about the corpse, it's been a day since it died, and the brothers don't want to go in and guard it. General Hua, it stands to reason that idle people are not allowed to wait for them to enter, although you are not an outsider, it is best to come out as soon as you see it, otherwise it will be discovered by King Changshan, and it will be difficult for us to do it."

"I understand, don't worry."

After He Mulan agreed to Gao Shen, he was sent into the righteous room by Gao Shen. Gao Shen didn't enter the door, but only guarded the door in person, and ordered a few guards not to tell about Mulan's visit.

After a while, He Mullan came out, a puzzled look on his face.

"What, General Hua, what's wrong?"

Gao Shen's heart sank, "Isn't that Wang Jin dead?" No, the corpses are stiff! "

He Mullan shook his head even more strangely.

"No, it's right everywhere. Wang Jin died, and he was indeed choked to death, he should have swallowed his own buckle or other hard object, his whole face was blue, and he should have died of suffocation."

The question is, how did he really die!
