In the past few days, Han Xianqing, the owner of Yingtianfu Changlong Firm, has been a little depressed.

The Yingtian military food case, which was already ironclad, did not expect that it would actually cause trouble to the Great Song Emperor, and it was overturned and restarted, which suddenly made the heart of the Han Da shopkeeper uneasy.

Cousin Han Xianzhi's brother-in-law, Chen Yaosu, the top big man in the court, sent his military advisor to relieve the siege and bribed Xue Jin to take the blame, which finally made Han Xianqing see a little hope of passing the test safely.

However, what is unexpected is that this plan was discovered by Lin'an Hou in a blink of an eye. In desperation, Mr. Shangguan had no choice but to let people kill Xue Jin, and he took his life for no reason.

For the sake of safety, his brother Han Xianzhi asked him to hide in the camp of the Zhongwu Army for the past two days to avoid the limelight for a while. But. Where is this barracks where people live? Mixing with a bunch of rude soldiers is not only smelly and dirty, but also extremely noisy, and being buzzed by these loud heads all day long is really no different from living a crime.

Han Xianqing couldn't bear the loneliness, so he asked the camp officer to pick a relatively secluded place for him again, and then used some money to secretly recruit two Qinglou women from outside, sneak into the barracks to serve him, and finally felt a little more comfortable.

But just one night, he was told to his cousin the next day. When Han Xianzhi found out, he was furious, and he beat his cousin hard, and then drove the two women out of the barracks.

Han Xianqing was already worried about the progress of the case, and he was held back in the barracks, but at this time, he was scolded by his brother, and his mood was even more depressed.

He went back to the tent alone, drank a lot of wine sullenly, and felt that the world was spinning, and then he fell asleep groggy.

In his dazed sleep, Han Xianqing suddenly felt as if someone was whispering to him in his ear, he was about to open his eyes to watch, but the next moment he was pinched by a powerful iron hand in his throat, and he couldn't break free at all in a hurry, and he fainted because he couldn't breathe in a few strokes.

When Han Xianqing woke up again, the surrounding environment had completely changed. The original humble military tent was gone, and in its place was a gloomy place, like a yamen hall and a palace.

A gust of strange wind blowing from nowhere made him shiver, and the strength of the wine immediately scared him away.

Han Xianqing was about to get up and take a closer look at where this was, but at this moment, a low and hoarse voice suddenly came from the opposite side: "Han Xianqing, you look up!" Han Xianqing was taken aback when he heard this, and subconsciously raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice.

Unexpectedly, it doesn't matter if you don't look at it, when you look at it, you will be shocked by the scene in front of you.

I saw that on the beams of the house in the distance, a few green ghost fires reflected a plaque, and three big characters were written on the plaque: Yama Temple!

Directly below the plaque is a table with a person sitting behind it, staring at him with compassion.

In an instant, Han Xianqing jumped out of his heart and asked tremblingly, "You, what are you...... Who? ”

"Bold!" Someone next to him shouted: "In front of the Ten Palaces of the Yama King, why don't you kneel?!" ”

Han Xianqing followed the sound and saw that it was actually a military general with a bull's head, who was yelling at him: "Hurry up and see His Royal Highness the King of Hades!" ”

"Mother's mother, my grandmother!" Han Xianqing howled miserably, rolled his eyes and fainted on the spot.

"Damn, are you so daring? Stunned? ”

"I said Master Hou, this kind of scene, I'm afraid anyone will be scared to death!"

"Well, you guys pretending to be little devils, stop laughing. Fortunately, this coward fainted immediately, otherwise I would have to go through today, so be serious for me! Erbai, you go and wake him up. ”

At this time, Zhao Liang, the "King of Hades" who was sitting behind the table, watched the "bull head" Li Erbai step forward to investigate Han Xianqing's condition, so he turned his face to the "horse face" Yao Neng on the other side and said: "Old Yao, do you think the layout of this environment is okay?" Does it match the current folklore? ”

Master Yao Nengyao, the head of the prison department of Zhengsanpin Gyeonggi Road, was wearing a horse-faced hood mask on his head at this time, and he was still in a deep circle of confusion, listening to Lin Anhou's question, he replied in a daze: "Ah? I think it's okay. The king of Hades is there, the bull head and horse face are also complete, and the surrounding gloomy decorations are really similar at first glance. ”

Zhao Liang laughed secretly in his heart when he heard this, and couldn't help but think of Director Yan of the General Affairs Department of the Anti-Penetration Bureau, Assistant Niu and Assistant Ma, and silently said to them: Three old brothers, I'm sorry, if you want to blame the old way of turning off the lights, thanks to his little bamboo slips, your glorious image has been passed on to all generations and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Li Erbai whispered at this time: "Uncle Shi, okay, he's awake." As he spoke, he removed the palm that was transporting the internal force from Han Xianqing's chest, and flashed to the side as quickly as a ghost to stand up again.

"Woo-ah......" Han Xianqing let out a sigh of relief, woke up faintly, and then as if he remembered something, he got up suddenly.

Seeing this, Zhao Liang hurriedly made a gesture to the surrounding officials, and then, a strange sound of ghosts crying and wolf howls sounded in the room, which frightened Han Xianqing and fell to the ground again, and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy: "Lord Yama spare your life, Lord Yama spare your life......

"You're dead, what are you sparing?" Zhao Liang deliberately suppressed his throat and said: "Han Xianqing, Eryang Shou is over, his soul has returned to the underworld, and now he will be heard in the court, and after it is over, he will be sent to the eighteenth layer of hell to be punished according to his sins in the world." ”

"Huh? I'm dead? Han Xianqing looked dazed: "Is it just dead?" Too, too suddenly, right? ”

Yao Neng said in a deep voice according to the words made up in advance: "Died too suddenly? Let me see, oh yes, His Royal Highness the King of Hades, this person does have a few years to live, and he doesn't want to be assassinated, so he came to report in advance. ”

Zhao Liang asked cooperatively: "Assassinated?" Who did that? ”

Yao Neng flicked the horse's head mask with his hand, held the booklet, and replied solemnly: "Han Xianqing was killed by a guy named Shangguan Xueming, choked his throat in the Zhongwu military camp, and suffocated to death. ”

When Han Xianqing heard this, he was immediately annoyed: "Damn, it's actually this straight lady who is a thief!" I still trust him so much! Grandpa Hades, I really died unjustly! ”

"Not wronged at all!" Yao Neng continued: "There was a complaint from a wronged soul before, saying that he was killed by Han Xianqing, so it can be regarded as a life for his life. ”

Zhao Liang asked, "Oh? Which unlucky ghost sued him? ”

"Xue Jin, the person who should be in the sky."

"Since this is the case, then pass Xue into the upper hall!"

With Zhao Liang's order, the officials hung Xue Jin's corpse, which had been prepared a long time ago, in the air with a rope, and pulled it to Han Xianqing in a leisurely manner. Due to the special treatment done by the Criminal Division's work in advance, the corpse could not help but not decompose, but was still lifelike.

Han Xianqing is just a businessman, and he has never even killed a chicken, let alone a dead person. As soon as Xue Jin came out fluttering in the air, he almost didn't scare Han Xianqing on the spot, and hurriedly closed his eyes and lowered his head, trembling.

When Li Erbai was wandering the rivers and lakes, he had learned some ventriloquist techniques, so he imitated Xue Jin's accent and said poignantly: "Han Daguan, I died so miserably, I want you to pay for my life-"

"Don't look for me! I didn't do it! Han Xianqing let out a pig-killing cry: "It's all Shangguan Xueming's idea, and it's all his people who kill you, you go to him, go to him!" ”

Zhao Liang saw that he had scared Han Xianqing enough, and he didn't dare to use too much force, so as not to drive that guy crazy, but delay the questioning of the case, so he said: "Xue Jin, if you really die unjustly, this king will inevitably have a judgment, and the perpetrators will inevitably go into the hell of tongue pulling out and the hell of torture and killing, and suffer a lot." You stand down. ”

Li Erbai pinched his throat and said, "Thank you, Hades, for calling the shots for the villain!" ”

As soon as his words fell, he didn't expect that the two ropes hanging from the corpse suddenly came loose, Xue Jin's hand was crooked, and it happened to be on Han Xianqing's head, Han Xianqing felt a cool breath from the top of his head directly to his heels, and shouted, "I'm my mother!" "I almost fainted again.

Li Erbai's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly stepped forward to grab Xue Jin's corpse, and muttered while carrying it outside: "Okay, okay, don't be like Han Xianqing, if he doesn't explain the matter to Lord Yan, it's not too late for you to come to him again." ”

Han Xianqing was terrified when he heard this, and kowtowed to Zhao Liang again and again in a panic: "Grandpa, the villain has no half a lie, these bad things were all done by Shangguan Xueming, and it has nothing to do with the villain!" ”

"Nothing to do with you?" Zhao Liang sneered: "Did you know that guy named Shangguan before?" ”

Han Xianqing was slightly stunned: "Eh, I didn't know each other before." He was a staff member of my cousin's brother-in-law, Chen Yaosuo. ”

Zhao Liang asked, "Since you don't know each other, why did he want to harm you?" ”

Han Xianqing replied: "He came to deal with the military rations case, and the villain only met him for the first time two days ago. The reason why he wants to assassinate the villain is purely because of the military rations case, and he wants to kill people and kill people! ”

Yao Neng was very good at grasping the heat of the interrogation, and when he heard the other party mention the military rations case, he hurriedly said to Zhao Liang: "His Royal Highness, I see that this guy's words are not all untrue, it is estimated that he is trying to deceive us with an idea, and there is no verbosity in any military ration case, it is better to simply throw him into the eighteenth layer of hell to be punished, or let Xue Jin find him to collect debts by himself." ”

As soon as Han Xianqing heard what "Lord Ma Mian" said, he immediately panicked, and said hurriedly: "Grandpa Hades, the villain is not verbose, I must tell the truth, and I dare not hide it!" Please, grandpa, give the villain a chance—"

Zhao Liang nodded: "Okay, seeing that you are still sincere, it doesn't hurt for this king to listen to you." What is the military ration case you are talking about? ”

Han Xianqing was afraid of the "horse face" and was impatient, so he hurriedly said: "Grandpa, it's all because the villain is obsessed with money, and he is jealous that the Mu family of Yingtianfu has grabbed the brand armor of the military rations and official merchants, so he has been thinking about making trouble for them and disrupting the business of officials and merchants. At first, I just planned to make some small moves to make Mu Ling retreat, but I didn't expect that my cousin told his brother-in-law Chen Yaosuo about this idea, and after hearing this, Lord Chen said that he either didn't get it, or if he wanted to get it, he would simply be thorough and take the brand armor of the Ministry of War and Treasury into the hands of his family, which would be regarded as a way to get money in the future. So they forced the villain to go to Xue Jin to deal with it. ”

"So, Xue Jin is on your instructions?" Yao Neng snorted coldly: "You guys are good means, and you almost added three more unjust ghosts of the Mu family to us." ”

Han Xianqing waved his hand again and again: "No, no, no, it's not listening to me." Grandfathers, the little one is just a businessman, how can the helmsman of the Three Rivers Gang buy my face? Xue Jin didn't dare to offend my cousin Han Xianzhi, so he agreed to help. ”

Zhao Liang asked, "How did you plan your actions?" ”

"More than 22,000 stone of grain, counting the freight of nearly 20,000 yuan, the villain's purpose is to replace the Mu family as the new official businessman, so he doesn't take the lead in this." Han Xianqing hurriedly cleared up his involvement: "We agreed that the grain would be secretly exchanged at the Chashan ferry on the way to Cao. The Mu guys who followed the boat planned to go ahead, and the two ships they were on did not move, only changed to the other big ships that followed behind. The people who do things are all the people of the Three Rivers Gang, they are clever and their hands and feet are neat, so the people of the Mu family are completely unaware. The villain was responsible for transporting the good military rations that came ashore and reselling them, and the 18,000 yuan he received gave Xue Jin a little benefit fee, and the rest were filial to my cousin and Chen Yaosuo. ”

"To whom did the grain be sold?" Yao Neng asked.

Han Xianqing replied: "Ruzhou Xianji granary 5,000 stones, Caizhou Liu brothers each asked for 8,000 stones, and the villain himself collected 1,000 stones. ”

Zhao Liang bowed slightly: "In this way, you are just seeking money, not killing people?" ”

"Yes, yes, Grandpa Hades," Han Xianqing's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Actually, the villain didn't even make money, and he was tired of running errands." ”

Yao Neng said on the side: "Your Royal Highness, there is no basis for empty words, in order to avoid the punishment of hell, this guy is not believable." ”

"Grandpa, the villain can sign and draw a pledge and confront him face to face!" Han Xianqing hurriedly said: "I guarantee that what I say is true!" Chen Yaosu's share of the benefit was that my cousin asked the villain to personally send it to Bianliang, Tokyo, and handed it over to Chen Tai, the housekeeper of his house. ”

Zhao Liang smiled slightly and patted the case: "Okay! As long as you are willing to draw a confession, this king will not only not punish you, but also bring you back to life! ”
