Chapter 4 Sealed without dust
"Who's coming?"
Li Zhidi narrowed his eyes and looked at Gonggong Fan with doubts. It's just that on that oily face that was obviously impatient, he didn't get the answer he wanted.
"The old way is dustless, and he is here to avenge his grievances!"
"Justice?" Li Zhidi glanced down disdainfully, pursed his lips and picked the corner of his forehead, "Didn't you see that this official was busy?" If there is any grievance, wait for the trial when you are free! Li Zhidi waved his hand impatiently, and then a servant wanted to drive Feng Wuchen out of the court.
Who knew that the seemingly weak old Taoist priest didn't panic in the face of the two reckless men, he was lame with half a leg and calm, and dodged the push of the official with a slight flash. Immediately afterwards, the lame old man turned around suddenly, shook the dust in his hand, and took the official twice and sent him back. "Lao Dao came to avenge this matter, don't you want to hear it?"
"Wild Taoist, Hugh is presumptuous! That's messy enough, get out of here! β
Feng Wuchen heard Li Zhidi scolding him for being a wild Taoist, and his face suddenly showed displeasure. He stood on tiptoe, glared at his eyes, and said loudly: "The old Taoist master came out of the Purple Cloud Palace, how can he be a nameless wild Taoist priest." Back then, when Senior Brother Feng Wuchan shot the Purple Gold Arrow for Emperor Yongle, no one dared to call the Purple Cloud Hall a wild way! β
Hearing about the Purple Cloud Palace, Li Zhidi was really taken aback, and twisted his body unnaturally, "Since the Daoist is here for this matter, please tell me in detail, this official has worked hard for this case!" β
The confusing Jin family's arms trafficking case seems to be about to have some eyebrows, but Li Zhidi's heart always feels strange, this old Taoist priest does not seem to have come for Jinchi, he is more like he has another purpose, wanting to put Jinchi in a catastrophe.
Feng Wuchen's appearance also shocked Linlang, she naturally knew the lame old man in front of her. If it weren't for Yu Linlang who came to the rescue back then, Feng Wuchen would probably not just break a leg in the Purple Cloud Palace!
"The whole world is not the king's land, ten years ago, the senior brother shot the purple gold arrow, and he expected that Jincheng would suffer such a catastrophe. The first emperor was supposed to have the capital here, but because of the Lin family's anger, Jincheng was angry. Imagine that at the beginning, those who participated in the Battle of Jingjing knew the methods of Emperor Yongle. It was a great fortune that Jincheng was not slaughtered back then! β
When everyone was thinking about it, Feng Wuchen told the old story of ten years ago. As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused the fear that people had long forgotten. Ten years have passed, some people have long forgotten it, and some people have sealed it in their hearts and do not want to mention it.
Jin Chi and Li Zhidi turned their heads to look at Feng Wuchen at the same time. The two of them grimaced, trying to see in those glowing eyes what he knew.
"What does the Taoist want to say? How does this relate to this case? Li Zhidila's face was full of displeasure, there was a lot of hidden truth in the events of the year, and he was also a participant. At this time, being sealed without dust is said to be a retribution from God, and it is naturally a little uncomfortable.
"Lao Dao didn't mean anything else, these words were told to me by my senior brother before he passed away, and he asked me to personally arrive in Jincheng and inform the people of Li about it. The time has come, and the lives of hundreds of people in the Lin family should also be repaid! β
After Feng Wuchen finished speaking, Gu Zi left, leaving only a group of people standing stunned.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! β
It seemed to hear his own heartbeat, beating on his chest. No one expected that he would bite the gold halfway and turn the solemn court into a terrifying memory. What is even more frightening is that this memory is bloody, with unknown hatred.
"Master, master, we have come to avenge you!"
Suddenly, the third aunt's voice broke the oppressive silence. She rushed into the court and couldn't help but be stunned when she saw the strange looks on everyone's faces. It was only a moment, and the hesitation was washed away by the joy in my heart. She knelt beside Jin Chi with a thud and looked up at Li Zhidi. The messy strands of hair broke away from the bun and slumped over the shoulders.
"Lord Li, the ...... of the people's daughter"
Halfway through the words, she was stuck, and the third aunt thought quickly in her head, and her pretty face turned red. Xu Yi sorted out his thoughts and continued: "Last night, someone saw Bai Shuyuan walking down the street with some people carrying three large boxes, and that person claimed that Bai Shuyuan was sneaky at that time, and he was afraid that he had done something unseemly. The maiden deduced that he moved the box and put it in the Jin family's cotton warehouse, and then set it on fire, leading to a series of matters, and asked the adults to investigate. β
After the third aunt finished speaking, she turned her head and glanced at Linlang, and her apologetic eyes sparkled. She put all her thoughts on Jin Chi, but she didn't know what to do about Linlang.
Linlang also smiled, shook his head, and quietly waited for Li Zhidi's judgment.
"Witness!"
When everyone was in a hurry, the experienced Li Zhidi was the first to wake up. He shook his head and said loudly: "If it is really as you said, this official will naturally give the Jin family a satisfactory answer!" At this point, Li Zhidi was full of fear of Bai Shuyuan, and he would rather keep the golden pool than give Bai Shuyuan any chance.
In a few moments, a man wearing a black scarf on his head and an earth-colored cotton jacket walked into the courtroom with a promise. As soon as he entered the door, a strong smell of bean curd followed.
"Oh, it's Liu An, who sells tofu, tell me what you saw last night?" Li Zhidi relaxed and lifted Erlang's legs.
Liu An in the hall trembled, glanced around, and a trace of resentment flashed in the corner of his eyes when he saw Jin Chi. Hearing Li Zhidi's inquiry, he was immediately frightened and spread on the ground, raised his arms, and cried out in fear: "My lord, you have to be the master of the grass people!" It's Yu Shan, Yu Shan, he has to force the grass people to say this. β
"What?" Li Zhidi frowned and glanced at Yu Shan, he was also shocked, as if he had not expected Liu An's change. Could there be something else going on? "Liu An, you have to think clearly, if you tell a lie, this official is absolutely selfless!"
"My lord, wronged, that day, the grass people got up early to make tofu, and they did see a group of people sneakily carrying three boxes into the Jin family pharmacy. But it was dark outside, and I couldn't see who it was! Later, Yu Yan got the news from somewhere, inquired into the house, and asked the grass people to testify that Bai Shuyuan did it, but in fact, the grass people didn't see anything! β
This sentence suddenly shocked everyone, the corners of Jin Chi's mouth trembled, and the roots of his dense beard stood up. If it is really as Liu An said, the three boxes of muskets are hidden in the Jin family pharmacy, even if Li Zhidi believes in himself, the people of Jincheng will no longer believe it! It's just that Jin Chi can't figure it out anyway, how can Bai Shuyuan have a connection with the Jin family pharmacy? Is it Zhu Rong?
Jin Chi turned her gaze to Linlang, she was also surprised, and couldn't believe Liu An's words!
"Liu Anββ!"
The third aunt Taifeng's eyes were round, pointing to Liu An's constant trembling of his hands. Her voice was hoarse, and she turned to a begging tone, "That's not what you said in the first place! Liu An, you, think about it and tell the adults again! β
Li Zhidi's small eyes flashed a hint of a smile imperceptibly, he glanced at Jin Chi, and quickly ordered: "Go!" The Jin family pharmacy is closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave! "It's a white book, and the careful layout has put the official in. Li Zhidi thought in his heart, and his spicy gaze swept over the people outside the court one by one, and there must be eyeliner under Bai Shuyuan among these people.
"No, my lord, Liu An really didn't say that at the beginning!" The third aunt was too teary-eyed, kept kowtowing, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, you can't seal the Jin family's pharmacy!" β
"Report ββ!"
Today's interrogation of Jin Chi was incredible, Li Zhidi had just lifted his heavy ass and wanted to go to the Jin family pharmacy, when there was a long report from the room.
"Report to the Lord, the messenger who sent the fold today has returned, and he has brought back the approval of the Chief Minister!" A green-robed official ran to the public hall with a fold held high, knelt on one knee, and bowed his head to present the fold.
"Chief Executive?"
Li Zhidi raised his body and sat back in his chair, and suspiciously took the fold and opened it to read. The fat face suddenly had a colorful expression, but finally it became gloomy. His twists and turns were sent to the capital, the purpose was to hand them over to Li Ruyun, so that she could come back to help Jin Chi, but somehow he ran to the Shandong Buzheng Division, and this sudden change suddenly made Li Zhidi unable to start.
"Isn't Lord Li going to announce the message of the Chief Minister?" I don't know when Bai Shuyuan stood outside the public hall again, he smiled proudly, pushed away the crowd and walked to Jin Chi, bent over to take a look, nodded at the third aunt, and exclaimed: "It's really painstaking for him!" It's a pity that you chose the wrong man back then! β
The uninhibited words echoed in the court, Jin Chi and the third aunt were stunned at the same time, and then their faces were covered with dark clouds.
"Bai Shuyuan, what do you mean?" The third aunt is too cold-faced.
