Chapter 123

"Oops!"

Before Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing continued to discuss the matter of clearing Dou Ba's grievances, they suddenly heard Deng Si'er's call again.

The three of them had to turn their heads again, and their eyes fell on Deng Si'er.

Deng Si'er blinked innocently when he saw this, and saw that the eyes of the three of them fell on him for a long time without looking away, so he whispered:

"Then I mean, we don't have to go back to Tuzhou first?"

The corners of Zuo's mouth curled slightly, looked at Deng Si'er and said with a smile:

"So you're not as stupid as we think."

"Hey, I don't like to hear what you say, Lord Zuo, what do you mean by not being as stupid as you think? When did I get stupid?! ”

As soon as Deng Si'er heard Zuo's words, he immediately felt like he had been stepped on by a cat's tail, and immediately raised his claws to attack.

Chu Jing reassured on the side:

"Deng Si'er, you listen to Zuo Idiot finish talking first, don't always be so startled, listening to people have a headache."

As soon as Deng Si'er saw Chu Jing speak, his momentum immediately softened, and he muttered:

"Who told him to say that about me first? Who don't get angry with you? ”

Chu Jing chuckled, shook his head helplessly, turned his head to look at Zuo Idiot, and motioned to Zuo Idiot to explain it to Deng Si'er, so that Deng Si'er could understand the meaning of this.

Zuo Idiot nodded, suddenly retracted his expression, looked at the other three people present seriously, and said seriously:

"You must not be familiar with my court's etiquette law, a governor of a state like Song Yuqiu. His official rank is above mine, and if he wants to bring Song Yuqiu to justice, he must be tried by someone in a higher position. ”

Deng Si'er nodded. But he still asked puzzled:

"Then why do you have to go back to the capital? Wouldn't it be enough to find someone with a higher official rank than Song Yuqiu? ”

Hearing this, Zuo Idiot shook his head and said:

"Do you know, Song Yuqiu, this person, his ancestors are deeply sealed, and he is supported by the noble concubine, not ordinary people can move, and not ordinary people can have the courage to move him."

"Not even you?" Deng Si'er asked again.

This time, it happened to ask Dou Ba's heart. He was also very puzzled, why couldn't an identity like Zuo Yuqiu move Song Yuqiu?

Zuo Idiot has a father who is the Marquis of Anguo. Princess Chunyang, who is the princess of the Heavenly Family, is her mother, not to mention that she is still the uncle of Zuo's idiot.

Such an identity can't move Song Yuqiu, who else can there be?

Don't?

"Could it be? Is it the emperor? Dou Ba figured this out, and couldn't help but immediately say in surprise.

Zuo Idiot raised his eyes and glanced at Dou Ba lightly. Nodding slightly, he said:

"That's right. If you want to arrest Song Yuqiu and return to Beijing, it doesn't matter what the crime is, what matters is who has the right to go to the next edict that even Song Yuqiu must obey, and this edict can only come from the hands of today's son. ”

Deng Si'er and Dou Ba finally nodded in understanding when they heard this, and Deng Si'er secretly said in his heart: This officialdom is really difficult to figure out.

"However, Lord Zuo, even if you and Uncle Jing have enough evidence to prove Song Yuqiu's crime. However, the Emperor will not easily believe your words. Did you get that edict smoothly? Dou Ba thought for a while and asked hesitantly.

Zuo Idiot nodded and explained:

"What you said is right, even if Uncle Jing and I have evidence, it is difficult for the emperor to believe it or not, so before this, I have already thought about it and found someone to vouch for me."

"Guarantee?" Deng Si'er asked suspiciously.

"Yes, it is a guarantee, according to the legal system of our dynasty, as long as someone can vouch for me, even if the emperor does not believe the evidence in my hand, at least Song Yuqiu can come to confront me, as long as Song Yuqiu arrives in the capital, his local power will be weakened, at this time, as long as Dou Ba appears, the human and material evidence is there, and he Song Yuqiu cannot deny it, even if he can't convict all Song Yuqiu's crimes, at least, he can shake his status in Tuzhou." Zuo Idiot said.

Although Chu Jing didn't interject on the side, he still nodded while listening to Zuo Idiot's words, obviously agreeing with Zuo Idiot's statement.

However, Deng Si'er still asked with some doubts:

"Then should we find more witnesses?"

This time, Chu Jing answered:

"I can't find it."

"Can't find it? Why? Deng Si'er immediately asked rhetorically when he heard this.

I only heard Chu Jing's words with some scheming foresight, and said lightly:

"Even if the emperor personally issued an edict to let Song Yuqiu return to Beijing, or if we want to confront Song Yuqiu in court, we need to transmit the news to Song Yuqiu's ears, at that time we will be in the capital, far away from Tuzhou, even if the remaining death row prisoners are lucky enough to be alive one or two, they may not be able to reach the capital safely, how can there be more witnesses?"

Deng Si'er blinked, he didn't understand it very clearly.

Seeing this, Chu Jing continued to patiently explain:

"To put it simply, no matter what the reason, Song Yuqiu will definitely take action to deal with the death row prisoners you saw who were used for experiments before leaving for the capital, so, just in case, Zuo Idiot decided to let Dou Ba stay in Nanhu Courtyard, there is little contact with the outside world, and I don't know Dou Ba's true identity, plus with the help of the divine doctor Yu Baicao, I think Dou Ba will be safe and sound when we confront Song Yuqiu in court."

As soon as Dou Ba finished speaking, he only heard Zuo Idiot say next:

"Of course, all this is just our plan, and it is not known whether its final feasibility can achieve the effect we hope for, so we must be fully prepared so that we will not be limited to a passive situation and be bitten back by Song Yuqiu."

Deng Si'er never imagined that things in this officialdom would be so complicated and insidious, and he couldn't imagine that Zuo, who had always been emotionally dull, could say such a deep thing, and couldn't help but grow his mouth in surprise.

Zuo is at the center of the whirlpool of power, although he is emotionally dull, but he does not understand the dirty undercurrent under the flashy surface, it's just that he doesn't want to be involved.

"However, what if Song Yuqiu hears the wind and escapes?" Deng Si'er thought for a moment and suddenly asked.

If Song Yuqiu absconded in fear of sin, what would he do?

"It's not impossible to have this possibility, so when I discussed with Uncle Jing earlier, I had already sent people to strictly guard Song Yuqiu's mansion, so I would definitely not let him disappear inexplicably."

Hearing this, Zuo Idiot smiled indifferently, looked at Chu Jing and said softly.

Seeing this, Chu Jing also smiled faintly, looked at Deng Si'er and Dou Ba who were staring wide-eyed, and said softly:

"Zuo Idiot's side has already arranged for the people of Anguo Houfu and Dali Temple, and I have also used the forces under my command, thinking that even if he Song Yuqiu has three heads and six arms, he will not want to escape from the encirclement of these three parties."

Deng Si'er looked at the corners of Chu Jing's mouth curled a faint arc, only to feel that there was a cold wind blowing there, swishing to his neck.

If Song Yuqiu is an old fox, then what he is next to is a thousand-year-old fox with profound Taoism! (To be continued.) )
