Yao Neng didn't expect that things would go so smoothly.

When I arrived at Ying Tianfu, I found the key person in the military food case, and the other party was very cooperative, and even saved the court, so I began to explain the truth.

He owed himself and asked, "You said that you exchanged for military rations, how did you get it?" ”

Xue Jin replied: "We should be talented and rudder, we have cooperated with the old Mu family for many years, and we have been responsible for carrying their grain and goods, and the two sides get along well." After Miss Mu took charge of the business this year, their business became bigger and bigger, and the trade between the south and the north was several times more than in the past. Especially after the Mu family became an official and businessman of the Ministry of War, the transportation of goods was often hundreds of boats, which made us earn a lot of silver. For this reason, the gang leader also specially praised and rewarded me, and prepared to promote me to the deputy gang leader of the Three Rivers Gang at the end of the year. However, the other leaders of the gang also covet the position of deputy leader, and if I want to overshadow them, I must show greater merit in order to silence them. However, Caoyun's business is a quantity, and it takes time to grind, and before the end of the year, it is really impossible to convince the public with the income from transporting goods. So, I was tempted by the desire for profit, so I started to use my crooked brains, and on the way to transport military rations for the Mu family, I secretly dropped the goods, planning to resell them separately and exchange them for more flowers. ”

"Huh? So, was it your own idea? Yao Neng was a little surprised and asked, "There is no one else to take charge?" ”

Xue Jin shook his head: "My lord, this kind of stealing chickens and touching dogs, how can the small one let others know?" It's all my ghost, in order to become the deputy gang leader, I did this kind of hurtful thing, and I also affected the old patron of the Mu family, and was almost killed. ”

Yao Neng heard him say this, looked at Zhao Liang suspiciously, and did not speak for a while. Zhao Liang understood what Master Yao meant, and said, "Xue Jin, do you know that if you change military rations, you will be punished with capital punishment." ”

"The villain understands that the villain harms the army and affects others, and is willing to subjugate the law." Xue Jinsheng burst into tears, but his tone was quite firm.

Zhao Liang thought for a moment and continued to ask him: "In that case, where is the military ration you stole now?" ”

Xue Jin hesitated slightly and replied, "I have already resold it in batches." ”

"Sold? What about money? ”

"Money...... The money is hidden in the villain's house. ”

Yao Neng suddenly reacted and asked, "How many?" ”

Xue Jin couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "Huh? ”

"The official is asking you how much you sold in total?" Yao Neng's tone was not good, and he asked Xue Jin tightly.

"Uh...... Probably, there are about three or four thousand, oh no, it's six or seven thousand," Xue Jin replied hesitantly: "The specific number is not well remembered." ”

"!" Yao Neng said angrily: "This batch of military rations totals 22,000 stone of high-grade Jiangnan rice, which can be sold for at least one stone and 700 wen at the current market price, with a total value of more than 15,000 yuan. Even if you sell it cheaply, it's not just a little money! ”

Zhao Liang continued: "Such a large-scale grain transaction can be completed in such a short time, it must not be retail, right?" So, who have you sold to? Name the buyer. ”

The two questions before and after suddenly made Xue Jin speechless on the spot, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. Yao Neng's eyes widened angrily, and he went to touch Tangmu with his hand, and suddenly realized that this was not a lobby, and there was no object to take advantage of, so he casually grabbed a tea bowl and slapped it on the table, shouting: "Bold maniac!" Dare to talk nonsense and deceive the official, do you want to taste the taste of punishment? Come! ”

Zhao Liang hurriedly stopped Yao Neng and said in a low voice: "Big brother, don't get excited, there are no water and fire sticks here." He waved his hand at several officials of the Criminal Division, signaling that they didn't need to rush forward to do something, and turned to Xue Jin: "To be honest, who made you confess your guilt and carry the matter alone." ”

"No, no one," Xue Jin said aggrievedly: "It's indeed a villain's doing, and it has nothing to do with others." ”

Zhao Liang stared at him quietly for a moment, nodded, and said to himself: "Oh, it's that Shangguan Xueming again, as well as Han Xianzhi and Han Xianqing brothers." ”

Xue Jin was taken aback when he heard this, and said hurriedly: "Master Hou, I don't ...... what you said."

"When did they meet you?" Zhao Liang didn't wait for him to quibble, continued to ask questions, blinked his eyes, and said with a smile: "Oh, I saw you last night, no wonder your subordinates said that you went out to run errands." Where are you meeting? …… Oh, Han Xianqing's concubine Yunniang's house, well, it's good. Drunk? …… Drink it, it's still my daughter red for twenty years. Hey, yes, they're all dying, and they're still in the mood to drink and talk. ”

As soon as these few words came out, he almost didn't scare Xue Jin to death on the spot, he looked at Zhao Liang in disbelief, completely unable to understand how this Lin'an Hou could know so much about last night's events.

Yao Neng, Apple, and the other officials of the Criminal Division didn't know what was going on, only Li Erbai's eyes lit up, obviously he had already guessed the reason: My God, Immortal Zhao Liang just used the supreme magic skill of the Dark Sect - the Dafa of Voyeurism and Soul Dementoring!

Shizun Jiyang Zhenren also knows this technique, but before his old man could teach it to me, he drove the crane immortal to go, so that I, the contemporary head, actually lost the stunt of this school. However, this time it can be considered saved!

Zhao Liang noticed that Li Erbai's expression was abnormal, so he took the time to probe this guy's thoughts, and he understood in an instant, and nodded to Erbai with great meaning.

Seeing this, Li Erbai knew that the immortal chief had already found out his heart, and agreed to teach him the Dafa of peeping into the heart, he was immediately overjoyed, and secretly shouted again and again: Lights out Daozu bless, lights out Daozu bless.

Li Erbai here was being happy, but Xue Jin over there was already on the verge of collapse, he never thought that everything was seen through by Lin'anhou.

Yesterday, Mr. Shangguan, Chen Yaosuo, Lord Chen's staff, came to Yingtian and urgently summoned him in Yun Niang's courtyard, along with Han Xianzhi, the envoy of the Loyal Military Festival, and his cousin Han Xianqing. The Zhongwu Army was originally ordered to march north to reinforce the Song Liao front, but the military ration case led to a shortage of food and grass for the army, so the Privy Council changed the plan and ordered them to remain at the garrison and stand by.

As soon as Shangguan Xueming saw Xue Jin, he went straight to the point, bluntly saying that the two factions in the DPRK and China were fighting, and the little prince coaxed the emperor to have the opportunity to retry the military rations case. In this way, it is possible that all the previous secrets will be completely exposed. So he came to deliver the word for Lord Chen, hoping that Xue Jin would be brave enough to shoulder the heavy burden and shoulder all the responsibilities.

At the beginning, Xue Jin's unreasonable request for Shangguan Xueming could be said to be 10,000 reluctance. At the beginning, he was also coerced and lured by Han Xianzhi, so he agreed to help Han Xianqing secretly exchange the Mu family's military rations halfway.

After the matter was completed, he got a thousand benefits, thinking that the Mu family was just an ordinary businessman, even if he was wrongfully killed, he would definitely not be able to make any big waves.

But now there is an unexpected reversal in the case, these brutes can't bear the power of eight thousand years old, and they have the idea of using him Xue Jin as a scapegoat, which is really unreasonable.

Seeing that Lord Xue was unwilling to cooperate, Shangguan Xueming put down his cruel words: Obediently bear the crime, nothing more than kill him, and his wife and children will not be connected; But if he didn't do it, then the loyal army would naturally have a way to kill him, and even the Three Rivers Gang would be uprooted. Han Xianzhi immediately said that even if he died, he would pull him Xue into the back first.

Xue Jin saw this posture and knew that the other party was by no means just talking, and immediately began to think about it seriously.

To tell the truth, since the first day he came out to mingle with the rivers and lakes, he didn't take life and death into his eyes. The gang that licks blood with a knife head has always been rich and dangerous, and if you are afraid of death, you will come out to mix something, it is better to go home to your wife and children to warm the kang head, and live a small life in peace.

Therefore, let Xue Jin go to his death, he is not afraid, even if there is no matter in front of him, sooner or later, he may have to carry other cases for the gang leader or other brothers. What Xue Jin cares about the most is actually a family, as long as they are safe and sound, everything else is easy to say.

After all, Han Xianqing was a businessman, and he saw that Xue Jin had a little agreement, so he hurriedly made up another condition: as long as Lao Xue is willing to take on this burden, Changlong Firm is willing to take out another 5,000 yuan as a settlement fee to support the Xue family's wife and children.

Usually, people are accustomed to using the word "family wealth" to describe wealth, so 5,000 is really not a small amount.

Xue Jin took a huge risk to steal food and grass, and the windfall was only a thousand yuan, if he died, he could leave a few thousand yuan of inheritance to his wife and children, which could be regarded as a good ending.

As a result, Xue Jin, the helmsman of the Sanhe Gang, once again succumbed to the coercion and temptation of the other party, and agreed to take all the blame for the military ration case on his shoulders.

However, the current situation greatly exceeded Xue Jin's expectations.

Zhao Liang, the Marquis of Lin'an, seemed to be able to see through his own thoughts, and actually revealed the secret things that happened last night, which made him chaotic. However, the military ration case is related to the life and death of Xue Jin's family, no matter how the other party finds out, he can only hold on to the end: "What Hou Ye said just now, the villain can't understand a word." Only I, the head of Caoyun, can do it, and I am the only one who has the idea, and it has nothing to do with others. Master Hou, Lord Yao, Daoist Erbai, and all of you, since I have admitted this case, it is equivalent to clearing the grievances of the Mu family, and I can also give an account to the court, why do you still have to work hard to force each other? Do I have to pull people to get to your end? ”

This heart-wrenching sentence was obviously taught to him by Shangguan Xueming, in order to counter Zhao Liang and others into an army, turning a simple investigation into a simple case like an infighting in the court.

Sure enough, this sentence had a great impact on Yao Neng, and he didn't want his subordinates to be misled by Xue Jin, so he turned to Zhao Liang and said: "Master Hou, I don't think I can ask anything today, why don't we investigate other evidence before formally interrogating him." ”

Zhao Liang nodded: "Okay, just listen to Lord Yao." ”

Yao Neng instructed his subordinates: "Come on, take Xue Jin under temporary custody, and escort him to Yingtianfu early tomorrow morning." ”

When Xue Jin was escorted away by the officers of the Criminal Division, Zheng Luya, who had been hiding in the next room, appeared and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, Xue Jin is lying!" ”

Yao Neng bowed slightly: "We can also see it." If it is really as Hou Ye said just now, Xue Jin met Shangguan Xueming and the others yesterday, then it is very likely that he was coerced by Chen Yaosu's side and planned to take the blame alone. Oh, by the way, how did Master Hou know about Shangguan Xueming and Xue Jin's meeting? ”

Zhao Liang's old face turned red, and he said vaguely: "Actually, I don't know, I just tried to trick that guy, but I didn't expect to be really blind." He didn't dare to talk too much about this topic in front of Zheng Luya, so he hurriedly pulled it elsewhere: "Lord Yao, what do you think we should do next?" ”

Yao Neng groaned slightly, and said: "If we want to pry Xue Jin's mouth open, we have to try to find evidence from other aspects, and the evidence is ironclad, so that this guy can give up the idea of carrying the crime and tell the truth obediently." At the same time, Chen Yaosuo and his gang coerced Xue Jin, and there were no more than two kinds of bargaining chips, one was his family, or something ugly that could not see the light. If we snatch these chips into our hands, then Xue Jin should also change. ”

Zhao Liang shook his head: "If Shangguan Xueming and Han Xianzhi really used Xue Jin's wife and children as a threat, I'm afraid they would have taken everyone away by now, and it would be difficult to find them for a while." ”

Li Erbai heard the words and said, "Uncle Shi, the disciple can try this matter." Whether it's Han Xianzhi or Shangguan Xueming, they put Xue Jin's wife and children under house arrest, and they will always leave some clues, and the disciples mobilize their friends in the rivers and lakes, maybe they can have a chance to save people back. ”

Yao Neng was overjoyed: "That's right." Erbai Dao Chang is very prestigious in the martial arts, and as soon as he comes out, maybe it will really have a miraculous effect. ”
