Anyway, the old man hurriedly asked him what happened to his Huju family. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Ren Rui said: "The more anxious you are, the less anxious I am!" I've got two more puffs of cigarettes! The old man was anxious to listen to him, so he called: "Cuihuan, you quickly burn two mouthfuls and let him eat it." Cuihuan took the skewer and burned it. Huang Sheng put the luggage away from inside, came out and replied: "Their bedding, ask him to put it away." Renrui nodded. At a moment, the guy who came first followed Huang Sheng in. It turned out that the rule on the horse's head was: all the prostitute's bedding must be put by his own men, and his family would never put it for him; And what are the things that are used in addition to the covering, and he knows where to put them, and the prostitute will find them, and if they are put by someone else, they will have nowhere to be found.

But he said that the man came out after putting out the bed, and said, "Cuihuan's is burned, how about it?" Ren Rui said: "Then you don't have to worry about it." The old man said, "I know." If you come tomorrow, I'll pay you twenty taels of silver, and I'll redo it. The man said, "Not for the money, rest assured, sir, for tonight." Ren Rui said: "Tell you to leave it alone, don't you still understand?" Cuihua also said: "If you don't care, you can go back." The man went out with his head down.

Ren Rui said to Huang Sheng: "It's not early, you add more charcoal to the brazier, sit on a pot of boiling water next to it, take out my ink box pen, take out a few red and white eight-line books and envelopes, take two sticks of foreign wax, put them on the table, and you can go to sleep." Huang Sheng agreed "yes" and went to do so.

The people here also finished eating. The old man asked, "What about throwing it into the Huju family?" Ren Rui said: "This foolish old man in the countryside, when he saw Hu Juren, he kowtowed to the ground and said: 'If you can save my master, you will be a marquis!'" Hu Judao: "It is not helpful to be a marquis, you need money to do things." I also shared the table with him in the provincial capital, and I knew him. Bring me a thousand pieces of silver, and I'll do it for you. I'm paid outside. The old man took out a leather boot page from his bosom, took out two tickets of five hundred and one tickets, and handed them to Hu Juren, but said, "But if the lawsuit can be settled, I can do it as much as I want." Hu Juren nodded, and after lunch, he put on his clothes to worship Lao Gang.

The old remnant patted the kang and said, "Oh no! Ren Rui said: "This bastard Hu Juren is here, Lao Gang asked to see him, and he said a few clichés." Hu Juren held the 1,000 silver ticket in both hands and said: "This is the Jia Wei family, the Wei family is filial to the old man's ancestor, and asks the old man to be extraordinarily fulfilled." ’”

The old cripple said: "It must have been turned over!" Ren Rui said: "It's okay to turn it over, but it didn't turn over." The old man said, "How is it?" Ren Rui said: "Lao Gang took it with both hands with a smile, looked at it, and said: 'Whose ticket is it, is it reliable?' Hu Judao: "This is Tongyu's ticket, and it is the first big money village in our county, and it is reliable." Lao Gang said: "Such a big case, how can a thousand silver do?" , Hu Judao: 'The Wei family said that as long as it ends early, it's okay, and it will cost more, and he is willing. Lao Gang said: "Thirteen lives, one thousand silver, is worth 13,000." Anyway, since the elder brother came, the brother was willing to halve it, six thousand five hundred taels of silver. Hu Juren replied repeatedly: "It can be done, it can be done!" ’

"Lao Gang said: 'Brother is just an introducer, not a master, please go back and ask him to ask him, and you don't have to open a ticket, just need to write Mingyun: halve the number of six or five, and the future is willing to come out." By virtue of this, the brother will break the knot tomorrow. The Huju people were overjoyed, and went out to consult with the old man from the country. When the old man in the countryside heard that the lawsuit could be settled without incident, he was good at it. Forgive Bindong for many years, and you will not be blamed; Besides, don't cash money: I happily wrote a voucher of 5,500 taels and handed it to Hu Juren, and wrote a voucher of 500 taels for Hu Juren's thanks.

"This bastard Hu Juren wrote a letter, and sent the five thousand five hundred taels of vouchers to the county yamen. Lao Gang accepted it and gave him a receipt. When he was promoted to the court the next day, he was supposed to be tried with the prince. Zijin didn't know any of these plots. I sat down in the hall and shouted, 'Bring people'. The officials had already brought the father and daughter of the Wei family there, but they were all half dead. The two knelt down in the hall, and Gangbi took out the 1,000 taels of silver tickets, the 5,500 taels of vouchers and the book of the Hu Juren from his arms, and handed them to Zijin to read first. Zi was inconvenient to say, but he secretly complained for the Wei family's father and daughter in his heart.

"Just Bi and the others read it, and then asked Wei Lao'er: 'Do you know the words?' Wei Lao'er confessed: 'I am a scholar and can recognize words. Then he asked Jia Weishi: 'Do you know how to read?' 'Confession: 'I have been to school for a few years since I was a child, and I don't know much about words. Lao Gang sent the silver ticket and the note to his father and daughter. His father and daughter replied, 'I don't know why. Gangbi said: "If you don't understand anything else, you must really not understand it; Whose handwriting is this credential, and you don't recognize the name underneath? He told the messenger: 'Show the old man again!' Wei Lao'er read it and confessed: "This certificate was written by the little housekeeper, but I don't know why he wrote it." ’

"Gangbi laughed and said, 'You don't know, wait until I tell you, you'll know!' Yesterday, a Hu Ju man came to worship me, and first gave me a thousand taels of silver, saying that you are in this case, and asked me to try to exonerate me; I also said that if you exonerate, you can ask for more silver, I think you two extremely vicious people are quite able to endure the punishment the day before yesterday, so it is better to take advantage of the situation to please him, so I said to Hu Juren: "You tell him to go and say that he has killed thirteen lives, that is, one thousand taels of silver, and it should be thirteen thousand taels." Hu Juren said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to get a lot at a time." I said, "As long as he understands in his heart, the money will not matter later." If one thousand taels of silver and one life are not to be paid, even if one life is half five hundred taels of silver, it should be six thousand five hundred taels, and it cannot be less. Hu Juren agreed again and again. I'm still afraid of Meng Lang, who is a Hu Juren, and repeatedly told him to tell you the truth of breaking in half, if you are convinced, ask him to write a voucher, and the money will not matter sooner or later. The next day, sure enough, I wrote this credential. I tell you, I have no enmity with you, so why should I frame you? If I get your money and exonerate you, not only will I live up to Futai's appointment, but will I be willing to follow me for the thirteen unjust souls, and I will tell you in detail: If you didn't kill people's lives, why would your family take thousands of taels of silver out to settle it? This is the first evidence, I spent 6,500 taels here, and I don't know how much I spent elsewhere, so it is inconvenient for me to delve into it, if the person is not harmed by you, I tell him that according to the calculation of 500 taels and 1 life, it should also be 6,500 taels, and your person in charge should say: "Human life is really not harmed by my family, if the committee member is Zhaoxue on his behalf, 7,800 is enough, but the amount of 6,500 taels is not daring to agree." "Why did he, without doubt, settle the account according to the five hundred and twenty-one lives? It's the second one. I advise you to confess sooner or later, lest you be spared the torment of many instruments of torture. ’

"The father and daughter kowtowed again and again and said, 'Lord Qingtian! It's really wronged! Gangbi slapped the table and said angrily: "I enlighten you like this, or do you not recruit it, and then pick it up for me?" The messenger at the bottom agreed to a 'whoosh' like a thunderbolt, and the stick fell on the lookout, and the shock sounded.

"Just as he was about to start the execution, Gangbi said again: 'Slow, the executioner will come up, and I will speak to you.'" A few of the officers walked up a few steps, knelt on one leg, and shouted, 'Please show me, sir.' Gangbi said: "I know all your tricks: you see that the case does not matter, if you get money, the punishment will be lighter, so that the prisoner will not suffer much; You see that the case is so serious that it cannot be overturned, and when you get the money, you will slam it and put the prisoner to death in the court, and make his whole body complete, and the official will have a punishment of severe death: I know everything. Today, I will take Jia Wei's for me first, but he is not allowed to faint, and he will be relieved of his punishment if he looks bad, and then he will be relieved when he recovers, and he will be ready for ten days, no matter what kind of hero you are, I am not afraid that you will not recruit! ’

"Poor Jia Wei, in less than two days, he really couldn't get through, he cried a little bit of anger, and he couldn't bear the punishment of his father, so he said: 'You don't need to be tortured, I'll just do it!'" I murdered someone, and my father really didn't know about it! Gangbi said, "Why did you harm his whole family?" Wei said: "I am at odds with my concubine and have the intention of murder." Gangbi said: "Concubine, you have harmed him enough alone, why did you poison his family?" Wei said: "I wanted to harm him, but I had no choice but to put the poison in the mooncake filling." Because it is better for him to eat moon cakes, let him be poisoned first, and others will not suffer again. Gangbi asked, 'What kind of poison did you put in the mooncake filling?' 'Offering' is arsenic. ''Where does the arsenic come from?'' 'Offering: 'Call someone to buy it from the drugstore.' ''What about the one you bought in the pharmacy?'' ''I didn't go out on the street and ask someone to buy it, so I don't know the drugstore.'' He asked: 'Who did you buy it?' 'Offering: 'It is the second long-term worker Wang Er whose mother-in-law was poisoned. Asked: 'Since the second king bought it for you, why is he willing to eat this moon cake and be poisoned?' Confession: 'When I asked him to buy arsenic, he only said that it was a poisonous rat, so he did not know.' Ask: 'You say that your father does not know, how can you have counseled with him?' Offering: 'I bought this arsenic at my mother-in-law's house, and I have been buying it for many days.' I want to take the opportunity to put it in my aunt's food bowl, and there is no gap for a few days. It happened that I went back to my parents' house that day, watched them make moon cake filling, and asked them what they were for, and they said to give my family a gift and stir arsenic into the filling while it was full. ’

Gangbi nodded and said, 'Yes, yes.' Then he asked, 'I see that you are very straightforward, and you have done a good job.' It's just that I've heard people say that you are fair and always treat you very harshly, right? Wei said: "My father-in-law treats me like a daughter, and there is no more kindness." Gangbi said, "Your father-in-law is dead, why do you want to protect him?" When Wei heard this, he raised his head, his willow eyebrows were upside down, his apricot eyes were wide open, and he shouted, "Master Gang! You're just going to charge me with Ling Chi! Now I have granted your wish. Even if you kill your father-in-law, it's always a Ling Chi! Why do you have to sit and kill, you have children in your family! I advise you to stand back! Gangbi smiled and said, "As for the truth of being an official, it should be investigated for the exhaustion of the water; However, since this is the case, let him make this offering first. ’”

Besides, Huang Renrui said: "This was two days ago, and now he still has to calculate the old man." Yesterday I was having dinner in the county yamen, the prince was so angry that he was forced to speak, as soon as he opened his mouth, as if he had obtained some silver from the Wei family, Li Taizun was here, and he also felt that this case was inappropriate, but there was no way to think about it, and it was necessary to discuss unless he could get Bai Taizun and Bai Zishou here. This plague is just pretending to be incorruptible, and Bai Taizun's incorruptibility is probably more reliable than him. Bai Zishou's character and knowledge are admired by the public, and he doesn't dare to despise them, and he can't subdue his people. It's just that it will be detailed in a day or two, and the palace guard is anxious, and it will be difficult to try it if it is played. It's just that you can't get to the palace guard, and all of us must avoid suspicion. Yesterday I saw my brother, and I rejoiced in my heart, please think of something. ”

The old remnant said: "I don't have a long-term strategy. However, this kind of thing is imminent, and it cannot be calculated. Only in this case, I wrote a letter in detail to enjoy the palace protection, and asked the palace protection to send Bai Taizun to review. As for whether this cannon goes off or not, then it can't be managed. There are many wronged things in the world, but in the eyes of my generation, I will do my best for him. Ren Rui said: "Admire, admire." Without further ado, the pen, ink and paper are ready, please start writing at this point. Cuihuan, you go to light candles and make tea. ”

The old remnant stared for a moment, and then went to the Renrui house and sat down. Cuihuan lit the candle as well. The old man uncovered the ink cartridge, pulled out the pen, laid out the paper, and wrote with the pen. The ink box was frozen like a stone, and the pen was frozen like a jujube core, and half a pen could not be written. Cuihuan held the ink box to the brazier for offering, and the old man took the pen in his hand, and baked it towards the brazier, thinking about it. Half a moment, white gas came out of the ink cartridge, the lower half was already burned, the old remnant dipped in ink and wrote, wrote two lines, baked a bake, but more than half an hour, the letter has been written, added a cover, and I plan to ask Renrui, the letter has been written, who will send it? said to Cuihuan: "You invite Master Huang to come in." ”

Cuihuan lifted the curtain of the door, "Gege" couldn't stop laughing, and shouted in a low voice: "Tie Lao, come and see!" The old cripple looked out, and it turned out that Huang Renrui was in the south, holding a smoking gun in both hands, his head tilted on the pillow, dragging a saliva three or four inches long in his mouth, but a wolfskin mattress was covered on his legs; Looking over there, Cuihua was sleeping on a tiger skin blanket, both feet shrunk into her clothes, her hands were over her sleeves, but her head was not on the pillow, half of her face was shrunk in the placket of her clothes, half of her face was leaning on her sleeves, and both of them slept soundly.

The old cripple looked at it and said, "This is unacceptable, hurry up and call them up!" The old cripple went to shoot Renrui and said, "Wake up, you will be sick like this!" Ren Rui was shocked, confused, opened his eyes and said, "Heh, he! Is the letter ready? The old cripple said, "It's written." Renrui struggled to sit up. I saw that the saliva at the mouth rolled from the sleeve into the cigarette tray, fell into several sections, and turned into a long time turned into a piece of ice! When the old remnant was patting Renrui, Cuihuan went to Cuihua's side, first touched his clothes with two feet, and pulled it out. Cuihua woke up and shouted: "Who, who, who?" He quickly rubbed his eyes and shouted, "I'm freezing to death!" ”

When the two of them got up, they both ran to the brazier to warm up, but there was no one to add charcoal to the brazier, only a layer of white ash remained, and a few stars of embers of fire, but there was still heat. Cuihuan said: "The brazier in the house is blazing, so go to the house quickly." So the four of them went to the inner room. Cuihua looked at the bedding, and all three points were already spread out, so she went to see what he sent from the county, but it was a blue lake crepe quilt, a red lake crepe quilt, two tweed mattresses, and a pillow. pointed to the old remnant and said, "Do you think this bunk is good?" The old man said, "It's better." Then he said to Renrui: "The letter is finished, please take a look."

Ren Rui took the letter while baking the fire, read it from beginning to end, and said, "Very practical. I think it's time for the spirit. The old man said, "How do you send it?" "Ren Rui took out the watch in his waist and looked at it; He said, "Four bells, wait a little longer, it's dawn, and I'll ask the county to send someone there." The old remnant said: "The people in the county are getting up late, so it's better to discuss with the store after dawn and hire someone to go." It's just that the river is hard to cross. Ren Rui said: "There were people running in the river last night, and it is very convenient for a single person to cross the river." "Everyone is on fire and gossiping.

At two or three o'clock, it was very easy to pass, and before you knew it, the East was already self-aware. Ren Rui called out to Huang Sheng, told him to consult with the shopkeeper, and hired someone to deliver a letter to the provincial capital, saying: "But forty miles, if it is delivered before noon, and the receipt is obtained in the afternoon, I will reward ten taels of silver." After a moment's pause, I saw a fellow person in the store and said, "This is my brother, if the eldest master sends a letter, he can go." He has sent several letters, and he is quite good, and he dares to enter the yamen, please rest assured. At that time, Renrui handed him the gift of Shangfutai and packed it up.

"It's time for us to sleep." Huang and Tie slept on both sides, and Ercui slept in the middle, and they had fallen asleep for a while, and when they woke up, it was noon. Cuihua guy Ji was already waiting in front, took his sister and two back, rolled up the bed, and left together. Ren Rui said: "I'll send their sisters and sons in the evening, and we won't send anyone here to call." The man said yes and went with them. Cui Huan turned around and said with tears in his eyes: "Don't forget! Ren Rui smiled and nodded.

The two of them wash their faces. After a short break, we had lunch. After the meal, it had been more than two minutes, and Ren Rui went to the county office and said, "If there is a reply, call me." The old cripple said, "Yes, please stop." ”

After Renrui went, less than an hour, I saw the person who sent the letter to the store, sweating profusely, walked into the store, took out a horse seal in his arms, a purple flower seal, opened it, and replied to two letters: one was written by Zhuang Gongbao himself, and the words were bigger than walnuts; One is a letter from Yuan Ximing on the internal copy, saying: "Bai Taizun is now in Tai'an, that is, he will send someone to act as an agent, and he will arrive in about five or seven days." And Yun: "Gong Bao deeply hopes that Your Excellency will wait for two days less, and wait for Bai Taizun to arrive, and discuss everything" Yunyun. When the old man saw this, he said to the messenger, "Rest and come to receive the reward in the evening." Call Huang Erye to come. The shopkeeper said, "I went to the yamen with Master Huang." The old man thought, "Who will send this letter?" Why don't you go for it yourself? So he sued the shopkeeper, locked the door, and threw himself into the county yamen.

When I entered the gate, I saw that there were many people in and out, and I knew that there was something going on. When I entered the Yimen, I saw that the hall was gloomy, and many errand officers were standing on both sides. After staring for a while, he thought, "Why don't I go up and take a look, what is the case?" "He stood behind the officer, but he could not see.

I only heard the hall shouting: "Jia Weishi, you have to understand that your own capital crime has been convicted and is irreparable, but you try your best to exonerate your father, saying that he does not know, this is your filial piety, and there is no one in this county who cannot fulfill you." But if you do not bring forth your adulterer, your father's life will not be saved. You think, your adulterer's idea has made you so miserable, that he hides far away, and doesn't even bring you a bowl of food, and this person's affection is very thin, but you refuse to summon him to death, but you make your biological father bear the death penalty for him. Sage Yun: 'The man is the husband, and the father is one.' 'The original husband can't take care of him for the sake of his father, let alone a good man! I'm going to advise you to recruit well. "Just listening to the sobs from below. Then he heard the hall shouting, "Aren't you still recruiting?" If you don't recruit me, I'm going to be tortured again! ”

I listened to a few words from the bottom with a hint of breath, but I couldn't hear anything. But he heard the voice shouting, "What did he say?" I heard a scribe go up and reply: "Jia Wei said that it is his own business, how the eldest master divides it, how he recruits; Tell him to fabricate an adulterer, and there is really no way to fabricate it. ”

Listening to the hall again, he was shocked and scolded: "This adulteress is really cunning! Throw it up! The infinite people in the hall shouted "quack", only to hear a few people running up, throwing the hammer to the ground, "Huo Xuan", thrilling.

When the old cripple heard this, he was angry, and he didn't care about the weight of the court, separated the messenger standing in the hall with his hands, and shouted: "Stand up!" Let me pass! "Flash. The old man walked to the middle, only to see a messenger holding Jia Wei's hair in one hand, lifting his head, and two messengers were grabbing his hands and holding his hand. The old cripple walked up, pulled the messenger away, and said, "Stop! Then he swaggered up to the warm pavilion, and saw two people sitting on the public case, and the next was the prince, and the first knew that it was this Gangbi, so he bowed to Gangbi first.

Seeing that it was an old cripple, Zijin hurriedly stood up. Gangbi didn't recognize it, didn't get up, and shouted, "Who are you?" Dare to come and disturb the court! Pull him down! "I don't know what happened to the old cripple when he was pulled down, and listen to the next decomposition. (To be continued.)
