Chapter 207: Witnesses
On a spring afternoon, the old city seems somewhat quiet. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info They went out of the main street, from the turn to the alley on the other side. When he was called by Qian Ye, the second child from childhood to adulthood and the current team leader were of course stunned.
"This is not the way to the Assassin's Mansion" Seeing the soldiers surrounding him, Qian Ye was stunned. While talking, he walked over, "Second baby, what are you going to do?" ā
"There is not only one way to go to the Assassin's Mansion, and there is no fixed requirement, why does the old man ask for so much? Is it difficult, are you afraid that the second baby will harm you? A calm and calm voice sounded, and the second baby was about to turn around and continue to walk forward.
"There is more than one way to the Thorn Mansion, but it does not include this one" Walking closer, Qian Ye is as confident as ever, "I'm not afraid that you will harm me, but I'm afraid that you will do stupid things"
"The old man's eyes are still so vicious, he can see through me at a glance" was exposed, and the second baby still looked calm, "I'm sorry old man, you can't go anywhere today!" Including the court of the Assassin's Mansion! ā
That's right, they didn't come here on Guo Zheng's order to interrogate the prisoner. Because, at this moment, there is no talk of Qian Ye's witness at all! They took a step earlier, and there was only one thing they wanted to do, that is, to make Qian Ye unable to go to court and temporarily disappear into the city! At least, no one can find it today!
"What if I insist on going?" Qian Ye shook his head and chuckled.
Expected? Unexpected? Surprised and not surprised.
"Then I'm sorry for Master Qian!" As soon as the second baby made a move, his subordinates immediately surrounded Qian Ye. At the same time, he also walked closer.
Qian Ye's disdainful gaze looked at the second baby he had trained with his little brothers, "Do you think that with you and your little brothers, you can stop Lao Tzu?" ā
After decades of service in the army, he has not learned some stunts and has no specialties, he cannot survive until now, and it is impossible for him not to be disposed of as a deserter. In a word, Qian Ye has never been jealous.
A gust of wind blew in the alley, and the smile that always hung on the corner of the second baby's mouth looked weird. Especially, it was maintained until after Qian Ye expressed disdain.
As a veteran oilman, Qian Ye certainly sensed that something was wrong. Could it be that this kid still has a back hand? This kid seems to have always liked to be smart, right? Thinking of this possible Qian Ye, he immediately alerted the surrounding places where people could hide.
"The old man's powerful second baby naturally understands, but the county master understands it even more!" He smiled proudly, "Didn't the old man notice that he was uncomfortable?" ā
"You drugged Lao Tzu!?" was reminded that he found that his hands couldn't use too much force, and a trace of anger appeared on Qian Ye's face, "Second baby, you have to know what you are doing!?" ā
"It's changed, this is no longer something that Qian Ye can resist alone!" With a wave of his hand, he shouted, "Let's ask Master Qian to come with us!" ā
"Humph!" Obviously, until the last moment, Qian Ye did not admit defeat, "It's not that easy!" ā
Before he could finish speaking, he swung his fist into the face of the nearest person. It's just that the effect is not obvious, and the man takes a few steps back and then surrounds him again. It is easy to understand that Qian Ye is underestimating the efficacy of the medicine; Or rather, overestimating yourself.
Therefore, after all, it is difficult to beat four hands with two fists. After the second baby also joined the fight and successfully punched him in the abdomen with a sneak attack, the old man's body couldn't help but bow.
"I'm sorry Master Qian!" Seeing his subordinates catch him, the second baby bowed slightly and turned around, "Take it away!" ā
Successfully won, half of the task was completed, and the second baby didn't seem to be proud and relaxed. However, even if he didn't relax, he still couldn't find that above his head, a pair of teenagers and girls had a full view of what was happening.
"Don't speak!"
Seeing that the young man's eyes seemed to be saying, "I say, Qian Ye may not be able to go to the court yet", the girl lowered her voice and threatened, "They are going to run away, let's follow and see!" ā
As she spoke, she was about to pull the young man to follow secretly, but after her threatening words were finished, the young man grabbed her with his backhand, "It shouldn't be necessary, they probably want to hide Master Qian"
"It's possible, it sounds like that second baby seems to be the old man's apprentice, the old man grew up, he shouldn't let the master step into the tiger's den" The girl tilted her head, put her erected fingers to her lips, and looked thoughtful, "It's not right, then why did he say that the sky has changed, it's not the old man who can carry it alone?" Reassuring the old man? ā
"If you go to the Assassin's Mansion to take a look, you won't be 100% sure in your lifetime here" The young man pulled her back a few steps, but he couldn't stop quickly, "What is this place?" ā
"Aren't you afraid that you will find your bewitching little lover" The girl pursed her lips and muttered, and in turn pulled him to walk in front, "Walk behind me, you don't know the road and want to run with me, you are really unreliable at all"
"This is the roof, not the road," the boy adjusted his steps, following her rhythm.
"Don't talk back!" The girl twisted her head and snorted......
Space is divided into chunks, and time is continuous all the time.
I don't know anything about the drama being staged elsewhere, and the Assassin's Mansion is still performing this drama of redress of grievances.
"Hehe, sue the official?"
As if Lu Shiren had become the biggest joke in the world, Guo Zheng looked at him with pity. In Lu Shiren's view, it seems that the other party sees himself as an ignorant clown, making ridiculous jokes in public.
It's not at all the same as agreed!
was holding back his anger, but after being ridiculed, Lu Shiren raised his voice, stretched out his finger and pointed at Guo Zheng above, and shouted angrily, "Guo Zheng, you are unrighteous first, so don't blame me for being ruthless!" ā
"Huh? I want to hear it, why are you ruthless to this official? Guo Zheng put on a nonchalant smile.
Everything that was planned, Guo Zheng himself did not know. He only knew that his good son had found a good reason for himself, and he had no way of knowing what the crime was. Naturally, there is a little bit of expectation. Now, he's confirming his conjectures, or rather, connecting all the threads. After all, he never knew everything.
"Everyone can testify for me, it was you, Guo Zheng, who instigated me to annex the large and small businesses in Guancheng, and the only one in the world. On the surface and secretly, Yang conspires and conspires, even if it is clever and extortion, as long as I can make them obediently hand over the family property in their hands, I can use any means! One by one, they sued me to court again and again, and you all used normal business competition as a judgment! These are well known, so in the end, I bought other merchants' shops at the reserve price, and no one dared to resist at all! ā
"Later, when I succeeded in controlling all the trade routes in Guancheng, you secretly instigated the merchants who lost their property to sue me!" Gritting his teeth, Lu Shiren's face was terrifying for a while, "You tell me I don't need to worry, just go through the motions!" As a result, I was sentenced to illegally occupy other people's properties, deprived and occupied~ all my property, and put me in prison, resulting in the destruction of my family! ā
"This is what you Guo Zheng is doing! It's your Guo Zheng's corruption and perversion of the law! Lu Shiren roared like a beast.
"Huh? And what's going on? How come I didn't know at all? On the contrary, Guo Zheng, who was calm and quiet, only used words to express the meaning of surprise; As for the intonation, it is completely absent.
"There is no evidence, Lu Shiren, the evidence you bring out can prove that what you said is true! Otherwise, it is to disturb the public court and slander the court officials; If it's serious, you're going to be killed! ā
"Yes! I have witnesses, and Old Man Guo over there in Xicheng can testify for me! His eyes were bloodshot, Lu Shiren's eyes widened, and he glanced at Guo Zheng proudly and looked at the girl, "If the military envoy doesn't believe it, he can declare that Old Man Guo will go to the upper court to testify!" ā
"Lu Shiren, are you teasing the military envoy" Guo Zheng snorted and laughed, "Old man Guo is dumb and can't even speak, how can he testify against you?" ā
"It's true that Old Man Guo is dumb, but he is not deaf! The military envoy can ask right and wrong! Lu Shiren refuted.
How likely is it, if all the businesses in the city belong to the Zheng family, could it be that Guo Zheng colluded and took refuge in the Zheng family? The girl sitting below began to guess.
There is no way, after all, she has no authority to continue to investigate the case, so she can only speculate here boringly.
"Then the official will convince you to die!" Guo Zheng was also not afraid, and he was shocked, "Someone is coming, and it is rumored that Old Man Guo is going to the upper door!" ā
At the sound of the order, someone began to walk outside the door. However, it didn't take long for the old man Guo to walk up to the court with a trembling hand.
Xicheng is not far from the Thorn Mansion, and this old man Guo can arrive so quickly, which shows that the other party is prepared. And even so, Guo Zheng still did not have the slightest fluster.
There was a startled sound, and Guo Zheng asked, "Is the old man Guo from Xicheng under the hall?" ā
"Ahhh
Judging from the girl's side, this old man Guo did not mean to be afraid at all. This point, as a matter of course, was regarded as a suspicion by the girl. If you have to count it, there is another coincidence: she has seen this old man, the old man who wanted her to leave that day.
"Lu Shiren said you can testify for him? Is there such a thing? ā
In all fairness, Guo Zheng's procedure was not wrong, and there was not the slightest threat in it this time, it was just a normal question. Have a clear conscience, or have no fear.
This point, barely enough, is a doubt.
"Ahhh
"Well, this official asks you, can you come up with evidence to help Lu Shiren prove that it was the official who bent the law and murdered Lu Shiren and other large and small businessmen in charge of the city?"
"Ahhh
As a result, Lu Shiren's smug expression suddenly stiffened on his face.
"Nope! No! It was the instantaneous subversion of ......'s emotions that made Lu Shiren at a loss. For a while, he couldn't speak clearly, he stood up and wanted to run over to Old Man Guo, "Old Man Guo, you!" Didn't you say yes...... It's not that it can be ...... I'm not ......" stammered in a hurry, Lu Shiren was stopped by the official on the side, and he couldn't get close to the old man Guo.
"The envoy is in charge of the villain" The head turned quickly, and after being stopped, Lu Shiren immediately turned to the girl for help, "The villain was afraid that Guo Zheng, the old fox, would not admit it, so he secretly wrote down an account book and handed it over to the old man Guo for safekeeping." Old man Guo must have forgotten, please allow the villain to help Old Man Guo recall it! ā
The case was tried to this point and then turned to her side, and the girl was a little speechless.
To tell the truth, if the name Lu Shiren was not made up by herself, but really existed, then the girl would believe the words of "Lu Shiren"; As he said, Guo is the mastermind behind the scenes, and she is also a little suspicious. It is possible that it is the Zheng family inserted after the collusion of officials and businessmen.
If that's the case, then it's easy to explain.
This old man Guo's temporary change of hexagram is actually a trust arranged by them in advance!
