Chapter 310

Xu Mian took a nap for a while and was pulled up from the bed by the secret guard to look at the injuries of the two people who were rescued, and said that one of them was seriously injured.

The two people who were rescued were cleaned up with the help of the secret guards, and finally there was no smell from the prison, and Xu Mian entered the door to see the two clean and new, but one of them was still in a coma.

First checked the pulse of Murong Xuan, who was sitting, and found that the wind and cold entered the body, coupled with fatigue and restlessness, and the condition was slightly serious, and when asked about the trauma, it was found that the little finger of the right hand was fractured, and it was suspected that it was forcibly broken by external force, and it was swollen and red.

After careful inspection, it was found that there was still salvation, and Xu Mian asked Murong Xuan to bite the cloth towel so as not to wake up the others who were still asleep in pain when he was connected to the bones.

"Pay attention to rest, you will grow well in a month or two, and you don't need to think about other things." Xu Mian comforted Murong Xuan, who had a haggard face, and the son of the family with fine clothes and jade food suffered from this crime, and quickly wrote down the prescription and handed it to the secret guard to grab the medicine and decoction medicine, and the poor people in the house used it were also the secret guard, you have to say Hongming Hongrui, that is the maid of the Wing King, how can she be embarrassed to call and call, and besides, the injured person is a man, and the etiquette must be kept.

Xu Mian checked the injuries of the person on the bed, except for a pair of legs that were broken, there were no other external injuries, and there was a fever caused by the infection of the wound, and the situation was not optimistic.

"Can it be saved?" Murong Xuan didn't go back to his room, he stepped forward to inquire about Chen Ji's condition, he looked very strict, his legs were already purple and swollen, and he looked extremely miserable.

"It can be, I'm afraid these legs are ......" Xu Mian secretly scolded which beast gave birth to such a heavy ruthless hand, a scholar who was powerless to restrain a chicken was beaten like this, how would he live in the future.

"Can't save your legs?" Murong Xuan's heart ached. I blame myself, if it weren't for myself, I wouldn't be facing the tragic situation in front of me.

"Let's pick it up first." Can you grow well Xu Mian didn't dare to make a perfect guarantee, so he summoned the secret guard to press the person on the bed in the house, and stuffed a cloth towel in his mouth to prevent biting his tongue due to pain.

The unconscious person is unable to move because of the pain. The clenched hand stabbed out blood stains, and Murong Xuan stood aside and couldn't do anything, his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"I'll take the medicine for a while, but tonight I can only do this first." Xu Mian went to the side and soaked his hands, wrote down a few words of prescription and was going back.

"Imperial Doctor Xu, can Chen Ji's leg still be saved?" At least be able to walk on the ground, not to recover but to save a pair of legs. He was still so young, Murong Xuan didn't dare to think about how Chen Ji, who had lost his legs and lost his future, would live in the future.

"The medicine on hand is not enough to cure, let's see the situation tomorrow." Xu Mian was thinking about asking the Wing King to ask for the secret wound medicine in the palace. It's much better than what you have in your hands, and maybe it's saved.

"Then ......" Murong Xuan was so flustered that he couldn't ask the same words again.

"Go and rest, tomorrow will be tomorrow, and it will be easy to do things with enough spirit." Xu Mian persuaded him to go back to his house and go to sleep. There is no burden on my mind at all.

How could Murong Xuan sleep. Suddenly remembered that there was another Gu Sicong, and he didn't know who to ask, and he was afraid of waking up others at night, so when he was at a loss, the dark guard brought two portions of decoction into the house.

"There is another one named Gu Sicong, have you seen it?" Murong Xuan had already lost his composure, staring at the man in black like grasping a life-saving straw.

"He's better off next door than you both." It was also the good fate of the surname Gu that happened to meet the master, a typical fate should not be extinguished, and the secret guard gave an answer. urged him to drink the medicine and go back to sleep, and went to feed the wounded on the bed.

OK. Being able to swallow the medicine in a coma means that there is a desire to save lives, so it should be no big deal, except for a pair of legs The secret guard sighed, how can a scholar bear this kind of hard injury.

Murong Xuan was relieved when he heard this, and went to the arranged room to lie down, fortunately they were all alive, just alive, they couldn't sleep, and their minds were full of dark cells and hideous and vicious faces, which made people have headaches back and forth.

He hadn't slept for four or five days, but no matter how tired his body was, he still didn't feel sleepy when he closed his eyes, Murong Xuan's mind was difficult to calm down, and he couldn't help but replay the whole process in his mind, hating the stab in the back.

This night was destined to be a sleepless night, and all 2,000 guards were dispatched to outflank the official mansions up and down the ground, and the work became more and more numb, even if they didn't sleep all night, they were excited.

Regardless of whether the officials of the Tongzhou Mansion colluded together or not, they all suffered misdeeds, and none of them were spared, without a word-by-word explanation, and the unprovoked intrusion did not give people a chance to speak, and suddenly their eyes were dark, and they didn't know anything.

The main culprit suspected of plotting to murder the examinees has been sent to the house overnight, and the other officials involved have been thrown into the prison and left behind guards.

Boxes of things were moved to the house, the guards didn't bother to count, what was loaded, in order to save time, the day was about to dawn, move quickly to complete the task, and go back to sleep a lot.

The guards found that the more they worked with the Wing King, the more nourishing they became, and they were more casual and less restrained than the guards in some families, and they were not bored at all, and they had something of interest to do every day.

In the morning, Xi Chao practiced swords in the courtyard, and listened to the secret guard after breakfast to tell him about the whole thing, and all the people who should be arrested were arrested, and the rest was interrogation.

"I really didn't expect this to happen." Xu Mian was terrified when he heard this, "The official who was supposed to help the examinee became the murderer who stabbed him in the back, and the one who betrayed the four, his heart is really black enough, and he has read the sage book for so long in vain, and it seems that he has read it all in the dog's stomach." ”

"Why don't you just kill someone?" What are the two sides calculating again? Xu Mian couldn't figure it out.

"I'm afraid of being pushed out by the other party to take the blame, after all, in addition to the identity of Gongsheng, there is also the son of a DPRK official, both sides don't want to rashly kill people, and they are waiting for the other party who can't bear to kill them." Xichao's calm and waveless tone explained the key to it.

"It's fun to use each other and guard against each other." Xu Mian's eyes flashed, and he looked full of interest.

"Then why did they deliberately hurt people?" Xu Mian felt very puzzled, isn't it okay to keep it closed, what kind of thing is hurting people? Could it be out of jealousy that you feel weird when you think about it, or is it to make people honest and not have the delusion of escaping?

"Or is it that after hurting someone, you will fend for yourself, resign yourself to fate, and it is more desirable to die, and it is no different if you are not dead and half-crippled. In the future, the future will be ruined, and life will be difficult. Xu Mian had all kinds of speculations.

"You forgot, the typical rules of officialdom." Xi Chao reminded Xu Mian. "The necessary conditions for becoming an official, especially externally, those with ugly appearances are not allowed to enter the court for fear of shocking the holy driver, and those with disabilities are also not connected to officialdom." This is an unwritten rule that has been formed since ancient times, and it is more deterrent when there is no official in the DPRK who has a dignified appearance, and when the appearance is extraordinary, it shows the official authority.

"I forgot there was such a thing, I see." It is natural to ignore this point because of your own good growth. Xu Mian sighed, "It can be seen how vicious the intentions are, Murong Xuan is the son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites. If the little finger of the injured right hand is not treated in time, it will hinder the smile in the future, and people who can't write a word well should not be delusional, even if they go through the door to enter the officialdom. It's not as good as the scenery from high school. As for the one with broken legs, it was even worse, but fortunately we came in time, so as not to see three dead corpses, such a vicious incident happened at the beginning of officialdom, and I am afraid that other places are also unpredictable. ”

"I've sent someone to investigate, and the secret guards everywhere are watching, and it's true that they can't die." It is inevitable to suffer a little, and Xichao has always been careful in doing things. Fortunately, we are prepared, otherwise it will be irreversible to cause a catastrophe.

"That's right. The man with broken legs, if he wants to be cured and at least be able to get out of bed and walk, needs a secret medicine in the palace. Xu Mian remembered his intentions, and didn't care if it was true to keep other legs.

Xi Chao heard his meaning and motioned to Hongrui to get it, a box of medicine is not as important as a person, and if he has no legs, he will be depressed and lifeless in the future.

Xu Mian took the medicine and got up to look at the injured, and couldn't help but sigh for the good luck of the three people, there was no coincidence, even if there were secret guards staring at the inevitable negligence, sometimes it was a human life, didn't they all say that if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future, these three people met the Wing King, which confirmed that the race is a lost horse and knows whether it is a blessing.

Murong Xuan didn't know when he fell asleep, he opened his slightly dry eyelids, stared at the bed curtain in a daze, his mind had not yet turned back from the fog, and it took a while to recognize where he was.

The exhaustion of the body did not replenish the vitality due to a temporary sleep, slowly got up and got out of bed, poured a cup of tea, drank it all in one sip, only to find that the tea was warm, guessing that it was about a new change from the people in the house, put on clothes and freshened up, and decided to go to see Gu Sicong's situation.

Hearing the knock on the door, Gu Sicong, who happened to get up, stepped forward to open the door, and could not hide his joy and excitement when he saw the familiar person outside the door, "Brother Murong can see him again, and I feel a lot more at ease." "Hurriedly let people into the house.

"The same is true for me, when I saw that you were safe and sound, half of the big stone in my heart fell, but unfortunately Chen Ji was not so lucky." Murong Xuan's expression was depressed and he sighed to himself.

"It's going to be fine." While Gu Sicong was comforting Murong Xuan, he was also comforting himself, "Life is better than anything else." "At least the three of them are alive and that's enough, so why force too much.

"How's your injury?" Gu Sicong knew that Murong Xuan's little finger was injured, and he also saw it bandaged just now.

"It's okay." Murong Xuan calmed down, now is not the time to feel sorry for himself, the matter is not over yet, he and the others are lucky enough not to die, and they should get back from those wicked people.

"Have you ever met the Winged King?" Gu Sicong asked, by the way, explaining how he was in danger and how he was saved.

"No, we were rescued last night, and the Wing King probably slept and was inconvenient to disturb." Murong Xuan never thought that the Wing King killed someone in the noodle shop or was an official, and he was very surprised.

"Go now." Gu Sicong was about to get up to see the Wing King, when a man in black came in and put a food box on the table, telling him to go to see the master after dinner.

Smelling the tempting aroma of rice, the two of them felt hungry, so they looked at each other and smiled and sat down to have this breakfast that came a little late.

When Murong Xuan and the two came over, Xi Chao was basking in the sun in the courtyard, and Hongming was busy preparing refreshments on his side, the weather at this time was just right, and the sun was not poisonous, so it was suitable for going outside.

Murong Xuan and the others saluted the Wing King, and only after the Wing King called back to the beginning and end of what happened, the cold ice flashing in his eyes increased day by day.

The cause of the whole incident was the measurement of the land, and the other two years are good to say, mainly because the rich people here are unwilling to let people measure the fields in their names, and when they find that the fields do not match the land deeds, there is a conflict, which is an inevitable thing, and it will not happen in the subsequent vicious murder incident.

The small families here relied on the government to support them, and they were disdainful of a few newly appointed scholars, and there were ghosts in their hearts, and most of them tacitly suspected of tax evasion on the land issue.

Who came to Cheng Biting Jin, who was a scholar of the four scholars, and held on to it. Because there are two scholars with special identities, the government is caught in the middle and is in a dilemma, and both sides are in a strong temperament to win. Death or life does not give in half a step, which does not create a stalemate.

The change in the matter stemmed from the internal disagreement of the four people, except for Murong Xuan, another official's son wanted to put forward different opinions, and planned to use upward and downward means to conceal it, and the matter itself has been inexplicable for a long time, and there are many incidents of high-class encroachment on other people's land and property in the families of the officials of the DPRK and China, which is not uncommon, so why not be a favor. Isn't it beautiful to be so good, hello, me, everyone, as long as there is a family behind it, whether it is for the local area or for your own family.

Besides, the emperor can't manage the place in Beijing, even if he finds out that there is a holiday, he will be delayed on the road for a long time. The result will not change much, as the so-called command has countermeasures, and it is said that we will have to stay here for three years, and it will not benefit us much if we offend the head snake. It is said that there is no way to refute it.

Murong Xuan was also born in a family, and his father had an official position. Naturally, it is indispensable to know the hidden doorways in the field, and what Fang wants to say is not all right or completely crooked, and it is good that this matter cannot be poked, once it is spread, it will be difficult to mix in the officialdom in the future, and the qualification for the palace examination will be cancelled.

What's more, what kind of person is the Wing King, Murong Xuan has a deep experience, and naturally understands the stakes, since the Wing King has given such an order. He often does not understand that the land has always fallen into the hands of the likes of the family, so the original intention of such an act is enough to be intriguing.

didn't wait for Murong Xuan to express his position. Gu Sicong and Chen Ji disagreed with the method of covering their ears and stealing the bell, and cited many reasonable and well-founded opinions to refute them.

Fang Xiang's face was suddenly very ugly, and he looked down on the student who was from a humble background and was refuted at this time, and the old man with a whole face snorted and left with two ugly words.

Originally, I thought it was a conflict caused by different opinions, and everyone was going to work together for three years, and this kind of dispute would have occurred in the initial run-in, so I didn't pay much attention to it. Who would have expected that in a few days, Fang Xiang would actually collude with the family government here, and by the time they found out about it, it was too late, and the knife had already stabbed into the body and saw blood.

Gu Sicong had collected some criminal evidence from the government that was unscrupulous, and was regarded as an indispensable person, Murong Xuan was killed because of his background, and the combination of the two parties was not strong, so he left one hand, thinking that in order to test the other party's bottom, Chen Ji, who had no background, became a direct victim.

Gu Sicong handed over the small amount of evidence he had collected to the Wing King, and he was too thrilling last night to forget the evidence that he had been guarding his chest.

"The son of the Ministry of Rites, why didn't he learn his father's shrewdness, he said that officialdom and yin calculations are endless, how dare to let parents and children who are not deeply involved in the world often jump in the fire pit." Xi Chao didn't look at the thin and meaningless evidence, but instead belittled a few people for their uselessness.

was degraded to shamelessness by a seventeen-year-old wing king, Murong Xuan was ashamed and ashamed in his heart, he couldn't catch up with the wing king who was crawling around in the court at a young age, and he was really ashamed.

"If you don't have the ability to see people, you deserve this sin when you are in danger." The Xi Dynasty did not comfort the two people who survived the danger, and they were a few years older than themselves, and they had to teach what to say by themselves.

"What the prince taught me was that we were negligent and ignored too many details to the point that we were in embarrassment." Murong Xuan has nothing to justify, one qiē and one qiē are his own tens of millions, and he believes in his fellow travelers too much.

"Lord Wang, those people ......" Gu Sicong couldn't understand why King Yi didn't look at the hard-won evidence of his hard work.

Xi Chao still didn't know what Gu Sicong was thinking, "This evidence can't deal with any of them, you must know that the other level of the head snake is the intertwined network behind it, they dare to hurt you not only the promise that Fang wants to give, don't underestimate the value of everyone, how can the heir of a cabinet official have the courage to get rid of the new temporary official." ”

"The prince is saying that there is a shadow of a hundred officials in the court behind this?" Gu Sicong reacted very quickly, and immediately thought of more possibilities.

"Send a letter to the palace to test the courtiers' reaction to the assassination of Gongsheng, and whoever makes a move will be cleared and sent to the prison of the Criminal Department." Xichao instructed Hongming to do it, and responded to Gu Sicong's question in a different direction.

"Taking people without evidence is ...... inappropriate, right? Gu Sicong thought of something and said something, his brows furrowed slightly, obviously disapproving of the Wing King's method of ignoring the king's law.

"When you get the evidence, I'm afraid the daylily will be cold." Xi Chao didn't mean to laugh at it, and he was no stranger to a rigid dogma like Gu Sicong.

"Remember one thing, having evidence does not necessarily mean that a prisoner will be brought to justice, there are many old foxes in the court, if you reason with people like you, you will already be eaten and there are no bones left, some things can only be decided quickly, and the excuses are more depending on how you handle it." Xichao doesn't mind mentioning a little more.

"In the face of absolute power and strength, the word evidence is like an empty piece of paper that cannot be counted, and we must learn to make use of our own conditions." Xi Chao looked at the two of them and said a few more words, "The reason why a group of four people is arranged, and the two of them are prepared for the sons of officials in the DPRK and China, and they will meet some people who do not cooperate, and they use the strength of the family to complete the task is the best umbrella left for you, but it is still an omission, and some people are bold and vicious." ”

"Think about it." Xichao stopped talking, and the thunder struck the business at hand.

The two guards pressed Fang Xiang, who looked nervous, to step forward, and with a light movement, Fang Xiang knelt honestly on the ground.

Fang Xiang had an impression of the Wing King, but he was suddenly caught last night, and he was so anxious that he suddenly saw the cold-faced young man in front of him, and he sighed in his heart.

"If the prince wants to see him, why should he be forcibly captured overnight." Fang Xiang was contemptuous and fearless of the Wing King's attitude, and his voice revealed a little displeasure.

"The intention of mutilating colleagues is sinister." Xichao's faint voice came out, "Have you ever thought of today?" ”

"Lord Mingjian, it was they who spewed blood and intended to frame them." Fang didn't care how much the Wing King knew, he wanted to find a substitute for the dead ghost now, and it just so happened that Murong Xuan and Gu Sicong were here.

Xi Chao raised his chin slightly and motioned for the guards to make a move, too lazy to listen to Fang want to reverse the black and white self-defense, whether he did it or not, he knew in his heart.

The guards stepped forward and pressed down on the left and right, and one stepped on his right hand with his upper foot, and the screams like killing pigs resounded throughout the courtyard, and the guards directly gagged and let go of their feet, and the whole right hand had been completely changed due to excessive force, followed by the legs, and the two guards had a right and a right upper foot, and there were two crisp clicks typical fractures.

Fang Xiang's entire face swelled into a sauce-colored color, his eyes bulged outward, and his painful shouts were stuck in his throat, which was worse than death.

Murong Xuan and the others on the side subconsciously felt a chill when they saw this scene, and they felt a kind of empathy, which was even more weird than a discordant fight, and they couldn't understand what the Wing King meant, and they were tortured before interrogation. (To be continued......)
