Lin Duowen asked the thief and said to the thief, "Who is it, do you remember?" ”

The thief shook his head and said that he really didn't remember, Lin Duowen looked at Chu Jishan, and Chu Jishan said to the thief: "In this matter, if he is not exiled for you for three thousand miles, or you are exiled for three thousand miles, you can choose for yourself." ”

The thief hurriedly said that he remembered, who was that person, Chu Jishan asked the catcher to take the thief to arrest someone, Chu Jishan warned the catcher, this matter is very important, it is not a trivial matter, so the arrest person immediately brought it, and he was not allowed to collect money to stay, if he missed something, he would wait to lose his head.

The head catcher said yes, and then Chu Jishan explained to them, the reason for this crime, there is no need to say more, just spread some rumors, saying that it was Lin Duowen's dissatisfaction with his lost property.

The thief took the thief to a small house near the entrance of the vegetable market, and the thief pointed to the house and said, "This is the owner of this house." ”

The head catcher took a look, divided half of the people, looked at the back, and then slammed the door with his fist and said: "The yamen is checking the night, open the door, open the door." ”

When the door was slammed, the nearby residents heard it, and they all poked their heads out to look, and when the head catcher saw this, he shouted, "If we don't open the door, we will smash the door." ”

As he spoke, he took out a long knife and was about to break into the door directly, when a big man opened the door and said, "What's the matter, when will there be a night check in this capital?" ”

The catcher looked at it, then looked at the thief, and saw that the thief nodded, and then the catcher said directly: "Good friend, just go with us." ”

When the big man saw this and was about to say something, at this time, he quickly drew his knife and stepped forward, looking at the bright blade, the big man suddenly did not resist.

A catcher skillfully tied the hands of this big man, and then took this big man to the yamen.

At this time, Chu Jishan was drinking tea with Lin Duowen, Chu Jishan persuaded Lin Duowen to go down to rest first, and he could handle this matter by himself, but Lin Duowen did not agree, saying that he was idle anyway, so it was better to see how this was.

When the big man arrived, he said unhappily: "Two adults, I don't know what the little one has done, let the two of you tie up the little one in the middle of the night." ”

"This official asks you a word, do you know that something big will happen on New Year's Day."

"What's the big deal? My lord, I don't understand what you say. ”

The big man stammered and asked Chu Jishan, Chu Jishan took a sip of tea and said to him: "It's better for you to explain this matter honestly, otherwise, when the time comes, you will be tortured, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it." ”

"Adult, the little one really doesn't know, how do you let the little one move."

Chu Jishan waved his hand, Lin Duowen looked at Chu Jishan and said, "Brother Chu, if he really doesn't know, then what should he do?" ”

"Then this person is falsely accused, and it will be more than just exile." Chu Jishan looked at the thief kindly, and when the thief saw this smile, he couldn't help but shudder, and then hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the little one has absolutely no false accusations, and the little one has the best memory." ”

Chu Jishan nodded and said I hope so.

The big man didn't last long, and half an hour later, he was lifted by the shoulders and returned here.

"Since you're back, you must be willing to recruit."

"The small ones are recruited, the small ones are recruited, the small ones do know about it, but the small ones have only heard about it."

"Whoever speaks, come, carry him on his back, and bring the man in."

A catcher quickly picked up the big man, and at this time Chu Jishan said with a smile: "If that person really knows, you can go home when the time comes, and the official will also ask the doctor to prescribe a prescription for you, so that you can recuperate well." If you just want to find a random person to blame, then we can only beat you until you really recognize the insider. ”

"The little ones understand, the little ones understand."

So this arrester went to look for others with this big man on his back, Lin Duowen said to Chu Jishan: "They just know and don't participate, will such a punishment be more serious." ”

Chu Jishan said to Lin Duowen: "If you don't report this matter, you will be rebellious, if it is really handed over to the Four Holy Divisions to find out, I am afraid that this capital will be bleeding again." ”

"For such a big thing, don't the Four Holy Divisions know any news at all?"

"These four holy divisions are no longer the four holy divisions of the past, some people make fun of the things that everyone in Xijing City knows, and the four holy divisions in the capital may not know."

"If that's the case, wouldn't the saint be ignorant of movements in various places."

"The world has been peaceful for a long time, how can the sage know, and the sage relies on the secret fold left by Emperor Ren, these prefects, prefects, general judgments, and the same knowledge, and they don't know which is the eyes and ears of the sage."

Chu Jishan said this, took a sip of tea and said: "But these people, not too many of them report good news and not bad news, and they only know that they are a little bit more enlightened than the Four Holy Divisions." ”

"It seems that there are a lot of disadvantages in the imperial court, why don't any ministers report it?"

"What are you doing in the report, do you offend the Four Holy Divisions? These people of the Four Holy Divisions can't monitor, but if they want to put small shoes on you, they are first-class. Now the entire imperial court is sweeping the snow in front of the door, and the people around the museum are covered with frost. ”

After Chu Jishan finished speaking, he then said to Lin Duowen: "Shi Jian, although I have this heart, but I don't have this ability, now we can only wait for your brother to become a big Si Nong, and if I can become a big mouska, I can handle this matter well." ”

Lin Duowen didn't say anything, he couldn't say anything about this matter, and it was still a question whether his brother could be the big boss.

When they were chatting, a person arrived, this was a blacksmith, after the blacksmith arrived, he quickly kowtowed and said: "My lord, my lord, I don't know what happened to the little one, and I ask the lord to make it clear." ”

"Let me ask you what's going to happen this New Year's Day."

"This, my lord, my lord, that was when my brother was drinking, and he told me, there will be a big event on New Year's Day, let me be careful, try to stay at home and don't go out, and I'm a good drinker, after I get drunk, I can't control my mouth, adult, it's all villains."

The blacksmith said, slapping himself in the mouth, Chu Jishan smiled and said: "This may not be, you go and invite your brother, remember not to reveal any news, just say that you will get together in the New Year or something." ”

"My lord, my lord, my brother is also an honest man."

"I know that as long as he comes here obediently, then you two will continue as always, and if he senses something and escapes, then you two don't know where to go in exile. It's a long journey, and you probably haven't reached the location yet, and you can't stand it. ”

Chu Jishan's words made the blacksmith shiver, he had never been afraid of the cold, but at this time, he only felt extremely cold.

"You know what?"

"Got it."

"So what did the officer ask you to do?"

"This, this, didn't you ask me to write to my brother?"

"Wrong, if someone else asks, it means that the items in the prison need to be repaired, by the way, you can't be busy alone, so let your brother help."

Although the blacksmith is honest, he is not a fool, Chu Jishan said this, he naturally made it clear.

Chu Jishan asked the blacksmith where his brother was, and the blacksmith also said, Chu Jishan waved his hand, and the blacksmith went down.

Chu Jishan also asked people to find a doctor, gave Dahan injury medicine, and said to Dahan: "Do you know why you were beaten this time?" ”

Dahan shook his head, and at this time, Lin Duowen said to Dahan: "Because when I lost my money bag, you sneered on the side. ”

"I didn't, Master Hou, the little one was wronged."

"I know you don't, so you can leave."

The big man was amnesty, and hurriedly kowtowed, and Lin Duowen waved his hand to let the big man leave.

As for the thief, Chu Jishan said that he would let him eat in prison for a few days, and then let him go after the Chinese New Year.

When the thief saw that he was fine, he was happy to stay in prison for a few days.

Chu Jishan found a catcher and asked him to follow the blacksmith, if the blacksmith's brother came to the capital obediently, it would be easy to say, if he didn't want to, then let the local governor assist and capture their brothers and send them over.

"Remember, don't be too conspicuous."

After Chu Jishan asked him to go down, he yawned, and at this time it was almost dawn, Chu Jishan said to Lin Duowen: "Shi Jian, this matter will only have a result tomorrow at the earliest, you might as well go back and rest." ”

Lin Duowen nodded, left here, and returned to the Lin Mansion, at this time Cao Xixiong was just about to leave, Cao Xixiong saw Lin Duowen coming, so he said to Lin Duowen: "Master Hou, why did you come back so late." ”

Lin Duowen said that it was okay and asked Cao Xixiong where he was going, and Cao Xixiong said that someone had asked him to go to the Rouge River.

"What are you going to in the morning?"

"There is no way to do this, this master is invited at this time, and I, the guest, can only be a guest with the host."

After Lin Duo heard this, he looked at Cao Xixiong and said, "Go ahead, remember not to cause trouble." ”

"Master Hou, don't worry, I'm not a child anymore, who can be offended and who can't be offended, I naturally have a plan in my heart."

Hear this. Lin Duowen nodded, ignored it, and went back to rest.

This sleep until the afternoon, after Lin Duowen woke up, he ate a little something, and asked the servant if Cao Xixiong had returned, the servant said that he had not, Lin Duowen said to the servant: "It's okay, go down." ”

After the servant went down, Lin Duowen stood up, stood up and looked at himself in the mirror, he suddenly found a very cruel thing, he was already old.

Lin Duowen also thought about the perch, and thought that he would go west this time, maybe like the second prince, he would only come back after three years, and he wanted to resign even more.
