Chapter 62: Crushing a Man to Death at the First Level of the Officials (211/527)

In front of the Yamen in the east of Youzhou City, the sword wolf guards were separated left and right, scanning the crowd on the street.

Heavy snow fell down and fell within the courtyard dam. The hall was filled with incense, and Zhang Boyan and his left and right deputies leaned back against the Taishi chair, holding teacups and were relatively speechless.

Song Ying had already gone out, the council room was a little quieter, and the deputy on the right pondered a little, and said:

"My lord, it's better not to get involved in this matter, the rumors have not been right recently, although the matter of locking the dragon Gu in Chang'an City has subsided, but the matter has obviously not passed, and the current saint and the king of Su ......"

Zhang Boyan sighed and slapped the teacup on the table: "I know that there is a fart, Song Ying's mouth is so hard, he lifted the saint out to press the official, and the official is not other feudal kings who can watch the fire from the other side, I can't listen to the meaning of the above......"

"Xu Buling appeared once in the Tang family a few days ago, and he had a conflict with Song Ying, could it be Song Ying's personal vendetta......

"He's not stupid, who dares to use this kind of thing to announce personal vendettas......"

"I heard that there was a little mess in Liaoxi County, and the Investigation Department took over, we have no news here, could it be the reason there?"

Zhang Boyan thought for a moment and shook his head: "No matter how big the chaos is, can it be bigger than a vassal king?" What kind of mess can use this method to lure the son of the vassal king over and deduct it? ”

"It's also ......" The deputy also felt that this was strange, pondered for a while, and was suddenly shocked:

"Could it be that King Su is reversed?"

Zhang Boyan raised his hand and slapped his deputy on the head: "If King Su is reversed, does he still need the Investigation Department to secretly run over and arrest people?" Last time, King Su went out of Qinzhou, and the beacon tower was a little bit, and the news came to Youzhou that day......"

A few people, you come and I to discuss for a long time, but there is no result, the behavior of detaining the son of the vassal king is too sensitive, and even the son of heaven asked the prince of the vassal king to enter Beijing as a proton, and he has to use the name of studying, they really can't think of under what circumstances the imperial court can give such an order.

Just when Zhang Boyan was puzzled, a slight noise suddenly sounded outside the yamen, as if someone was scolding outside.

Zhang Boyan was slightly displeased, and was about to let the deputy go out to see what was going on, when he saw the shadow wall outside the council hall, more than a dozen wolf guards retreated, and the guards standing guard ran over in a panic.

Zhang Boyan was inexplicable, put down the teacup and stood up, and before he could scold, he saw a young man in a white boy's robe walk in.

The man in white pointed diagonally at the ground with a single knife in his hand, and walked in his robes to hunt, his handsome face was undisguised with anger, and he looked like he was going to kill.

"Zhang Boyan, come out for Lao Tzu!"

An angry rebuke came, like thunder.

Zhang Boyan shuddered for a while, looked carefully, but saw that the person who came had peach blossom eyes, sword eyebrows, and a face like a crown of jade, as if he was the person who painted it, and then looked to the side, a half-sized little maid, holding a gold medal in her hand and glaring at the wolf guard who was blocking the way.

The Tianzi Battalion Wolf Guard, who was originally terrifying, seemed to be no different from the wreckage in the yamen at this time, and in the face of the white-clothed man who came over with a knife, he didn't even dare to touch the handle of the knife, but he was so nervous:

"The son of the world is angry, the son of the world is angry......"

The Son?

Zhang Boyan's face was slightly shocked, how could he not understand who was coming, and hurriedly carried his official robe and wanted to go out. But if you take a closer look, the prince of King Su didn't pay attention to the wolf guard, and came at him with a knife.

!!!

Zhang Boyan's face turned pale suddenly, sighed, turned around and wanted to run to the back hall.

"Zhang Boyan!"

Xu Buling was furious, jumped into the conference hall with a single knife in one big stride, grabbed the back collar of Zhang Boyan, the assassin of Youzhou, and pressed his backhand on the table.

"Stop!"

"His Royal Highness the Prince is angry!"

The two deputies were so frightened that they sat directly on the ground.

Many Tianzi Battalion wolf guards wanted to step forward to stop it, but with their identity and martial arts, they were not qualified to go up to the fight, and they deserved to be cut down rashly, so they could only dissuade them at the moment.

Zhang Boyan was so frightened that his face was like ashes, his face was pressed on the table, and he said in horror:

"Little prince! Little Prince! Spare your life, the lower officials have been wronged......"

Xu Buling was furious, pressed the knife on the neck of Zhang Boyan, and scolded:

"What the are you? The person who detained Lao Tzu? Do you think the knife in Lao Tzu's hand is not fast enough? Do you know that Lao Tzu slaughtered you, and you can still come to give you the first seven after being grounded? ”

"Know...... Know"

Zhang Boyan had words of suffering, and he didn't dare to move the knife on his neck, crying:

"It's not the order of the lower officials, it's the Investigation Department, and the lower officials are also forced to be helpless......"

"Where's the man?"

"Just behind the yamen......"

"Still won't let go? Wait for Lao Tzu to go over in person? ”

"Put ......"

Zhang Boyan was sweating profusely, and hurriedly waved his hand to his deputy: "Hurry up!" Let the people go! Go ahead......"

The adjutant was silent, where did he dare to delay, he ran out even with a roll, and when he walked to the door, Song Ying ran in quickly, and behind him was Situ Yueyan, who was carrying the nine-ring knife.

Zhang Boyan was like being amnestied, and hurriedly said: "Little prince! It was arrested by Lord Song, and the lower officials didn't know about it, so they really didn't know about it......"

Xu Buling's eyes were cold, he raised his hand to smash Zhang Boyan to the ground, and turned to Song Ying with a knife.

Seeing this scene, all the wolf guards who were watching in the council hall retreated, and the sword leader Situ Yue Ember also squinted slightly, but he didn't make a move.

Song Ying's figure was straight and fearless, and he said loudly: "Xu Shizi ......"

Before the words were completely spoken, Xu Buling had already walked up to him, and raised his hand to slap Song Ying's left cheek.

Song Ying frowned, and retreated half a step back to avoid the slap.

Xu Buling suddenly became angry: "You still dare to hide ......" said and slashed with a knife.

"His Royal Highness!"

The wolf guard was suddenly frightened, and hurriedly wanted to step forward to pull the rack.

Song Ying also had an angry look in her eyes, and she dodged a knife sideways, but she couldn't fight back, she just grabbed the back of the knife with one hand, and said in a deep voice:

"Xu Shizi! Please pay attention to your identity! ”

Zhang Boyan, who had just fallen to the ground, was frightened when he saw this, and quickly got up again, and said anxiously:

"Little Prince, Lord Song, stop being angry, all be angry! Don't move the knife in the yamen, so that the people below can see it......"

Someone pulled the rack, Xu Buling naturally took advantage of the situation to withdraw the long knife, and the tip of the knife pointed at Song Ying:

"Your dog under your feet is worthy of mentioning your identity to me? If you don't give Lao Tzu an explanation today, Lao Tzu will take someone to destroy the Cao family tomorrow! ”

Song Ying's eyes were full of anger, and her fists were clenched, but she didn't fight back.

Zhang Boyan ran between the two, hurriedly pressed down Xu Buling's knife, and said anxiously:

"Explain and explain, Lord Song, you can give an explanation quickly, why did you arrest other girls?"

Song Ying suppressed the anger in her heart, and above the court, she knew some words, but she couldn't put them on the table. He still raised his hand and saluted:

"Xu Shizi, Zhongli Chuchu is a person from South Vietnam, who entered the country without being notified of the pass, and did not carry a road guide document, walking around in the border pass town, there is a suspicion of spying on the military situation, the duty of the Investigation Department is to temporarily detain and inquire is impartial."

Zhang Boyan nodded again and again, and looked at Xu Buling: "Yes, yes, it's such a trivial matter, do you think it's reasonable?" ”

Xu Buling's eyes were cold, he glared at Song Ying for a moment, then stuck the knife on the ground, turned around and walked to Zhang Boyan's bookcase, raised his hand to write a road note, pressed a handprint, turned around and handed it to Zhang Boyan:

"Now that Lu Yin has it, can he release people?"

Da Yue's 'road guide' is actually a change of direction of the ID card, generally issued and stamped by the parents or clan elders in the place of birth, playing the role of "recommendation" and "guarantee", mostly used in the imperial examination or going out to study arts, when the founding of the country was more indiscriminately used for a while, now it is rarely checked, but this law has not been abolished. Needless to say, foreigners who entered the country without permission would be arrested in that dynasty.

Song Ying used this reason to arrest Zhongli Chuchu, who was born in South Vietnam, and it was indeed reasonable to be more serious. And Xu Buling, as the prince of the vassal king, opened a road for Zhongli Chuchu as a guarantee, which is naturally reasonable, legal and compliant.

Zhang Boyan didn't even look at it, raised his hand and said:

"Okay, okay, Lord Song, let people go, it's no problem now, our yamen can't arrest people indiscriminately......"

Song Ying didn't want to catch Zhongli Chuchu, but since Xu Buling arrived, he also went straight to the point:

"This time it's a lowly offense, but since the prince is here, there is something I want to ask the son."

Xu Buling's face was slightly cold: "If you have a fart, let it go." ”

"A few days ago, there was a bit of chaos on Bodhi Island in Liaoxi County, and the prince should have been present at the time, because the matter was special, I had to ask the prince to live in Youzhou City for a period of time and cooperate with my investigation department to assist in the investigation......"

When Xu Buling heard this, he was first 'inexplicable', and then angry:

"Are you sick? Lao Tzu was injured in a fight with you at the Tang family, and you didn't rest well after just a few days, so you arrested Lao Tzu, I haven't troubled you yet, you look for me in turn? ”

Zhang Boyan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Lord Song, everyone knows that you fought in Tangjiazhuang a few days ago, how could Xu Shizi go to Liaoxi......"

Song Ying knew that Xu Buling would not admit it, so he raised his hand and said:

"At this time, the stakes are very high, the prince must be present that day, and please stay and cooperate with a certain class to prove his innocence......"

Xu Buling's face was cold: "You are your hall of words when you are the court?" Lao Tzu's innocence needs you to prove it? I've been recuperating in Chengde County, where did you hear that I went to Bodhi Island? ”

Zhang Boyan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Lord Song, we must have personal and physical evidence to handle the case in Yamen, the prince Chrysostom Yuyan said that he was in Chengde County, how do you say that he went to Liaoxi?" ”

“……”

Song Ying didn't find any actual clues, but no matter whether Xu Buling was on Bodhi Island that day or not, it was impossible to let Xu Buling leave before he found the jade seal of the heirloom country. He shook his head and said:

"The stakes are so important that it is inconvenient to talk about them in detail, and I ask the prince to cooperate with me."

Xu Buling nodded: "That is, there is no evidence, and I think I have something to do with an ulterior matter, so I arrested the people around me, and then lured me in and detained me?" Right. ”

Song Ying didn't speak, but it was.

Zhang Boyan couldn't listen anymore and said:

"Lord Song, you can't do things like this, didn't you say that there is a holy decree?"

When Xu Buling heard the holy decree, he was a little more serious and looked at Song Ying.

Song Ying was silent: "The holy decree will come soon, and the prince will be restless." ”

"Huh-"

Xu Buling smiled angrily, nodded, and bowed to the nightingale:

"Nightingale, take the sign of Su Wangfu, go to the Youzhou garrison camp to transfer 5,000 border troops over, Youzhou Assassin Zhang Boyan and Song Ying of the Investigation Department intend to rebel, and they are all arrested and awaiting trial. By the way, the beacon was lit to inform Chang'an, and troops were quickly sent to suppress it. ”

"No!" The nightingale took the gold medal and walked out.

As soon as Xu Buling's words came out, the chamber fell silent, and then Zhang Boyan and other officials were all satisfied and frightened, and many wolf guards also changed their faces slightly, and even Song Ying raised his hand to block the nightingale.

Zhang Boyan's face was anxious and annoyed, he stopped in front of Xu Buling, and said anxiously:

"Little prince, don't mess around, how can the lower officials rebel, the beacon tower can't be lit, the entire border has begun to prepare for war, and the ...... of the nine clans is punished by falsely spreading the military information"

Xu Buling said angrily: "You and the Investigation Department can detain me without any evidence, and on the grounds of 'speculation and suspicion', why can't I suspect that you want to force the Xiliang Army to mutiny and have the intention of harming the country?" You have a Youzhou assassin history reversed, I don't notify Chang'an to come over to suppress it, waiting for you to let the Northern Qi army enter the customs? ”

"This ......"

Zhang Boyan really couldn't say anything, so he could only look at Song Ying:

"Lord Song, that's not how things are done, without the will of the Holy Lord and real evidence, you have no right to detain people, isn't it a mess to come like this?"

Song Ying's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he bowed his head and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince has a fief in Xiliang, and he has no right to mobilize soldiers and horses in Youzhou. ”

Xu Buling snorted coldly and looked at Zhang Boyan and the others:

"My Xu family has the responsibility of guarding the border, Xiliang has not yet ceased fighting, you came to capture the king, what happened to me borrowing thousands of soldiers and horses to protect myself? Do you think that the brand of King Su's Xu family can't move thousands of border troops? ”

Zhang Boyan's face was bitter, the Xiliang Army guarded the entire Western Front, with the general Xu Lie and the remnants of the Xiliang Army, as long as they were not afraid of taboos, they came to the Eastern Front to borrow thousands of soldiers and horses, and it was estimated that no little general would dare not agree. He had to look at Song Ying again:

"Lord Song, you give a reasonable explanation, you have neither a holy decree nor a certificate to detain the little prince, the little prince transferred troops and horses to arrest us, and we ignored it when we made trouble with the saint."

Song Ying really has no evidence, and the matter of the jade seal of the country is top secret, and he does not dare to reveal it before the holy decree. In case Xu Buling was not on Bodhi Island at that time, he and Xu Buling asked, and didn't they make it clear that the jade seal in the hands of the Holy Lord today was fake, then there would be big trouble.

Xu Buling frowned and waited for a moment, and seeing that Song Ying didn't say a word, he raised his hand and said:

"Nightingale, go and transfer troops, light the beacon."

Holding the gold medal of Suwangfu, the nightingale spared Song Ying and ran outside the yamen.

"Slowly, slowly!"

Zhang Boyan was suddenly anxious, and waited for Xu Buling to transfer the border army over, standing so that dozens of wolf guards couldn't buckle it. There is no war point beacon tower for help, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses around him came to Youzhou to find that it was fine, and he would not cut off Xu Buling's head afterwards, but he must put the whole family into it.

Zhang Boyan was also annoyed, and said angrily: "Song Ying, if you have a holy decree, take it out, and the prince of Su and the official will naturally receive the order; If you don't have a holy decree, you are blatant in committing a crime! Don't use the holy purpose to prevaricate on the road, this is called a false proclamation of the holy decree, and no one will recognize it. If you mess around again, you don't need Xu Shizi to do it, the palace will send troops over and take you down first! Come on, bring the girl out! ”

The two deputies were almost frightened to death, so they dared to delay, so they hurriedly went out and ran to the prison behind the yamen.

Song Ying's face was gloomy, but the officialdom was not a river and lake, no matter how high the martial arts were, they had to follow the rules, without the holy decree and relying on their own energy, a hundred of them would not be able to fight the son of the vassal king, and he couldn't really rely on martial arts to catch Xu Buling, that Bo Yan estimated that he would really transfer troops to Xu Buling to relieve the siege, so as not to cause chaos in the Xiliang army.

After thinking about it for a while, Song Ying took a step back and got out of the way:

"Xu Shizi, I advise you to stay in Youzhou City temporarily, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the Holy Lord in the future."

Xu Buling pulled out a single knife and glanced at Song Ying coldly: "My Xu family only listens to the orders of the Son of Heaven, what are you?" With that, he strode out of the chamber.

Song Ying gritted her teeth, but she was helpless......
