It was still the one that Chiba had brought with him, but this time he came relatively quickly and did not let Zhang Zihua wait for a long time. The person who came was dressed in filial piety, dressed in raw linen and decrepit clothes, there was no edge in the broken place, scattered with thin threads, his face was withered, he was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his eyebrows and eyes were delicate. It's just that when I saw a few monks in Zhu Fayan, his eyes were red, his hands were clenched, and he gritted his teeth and wanted to pounce on him and eat his flesh raw.

Xu You knew that Zhu Fayan was a strict city, and he couldn't see any clues from his face, so he focused on Zhu Wujue and Zhu Wuchen. Zhu Wuxing saw the person coming, his eyes showed a slight sense of horror, and it was fleeting, and he pretended to bow his head calmly. Zhu Wuchen was full of curiosity, his eyes were wide open, looking up and down, as if he didn't know the inside story.

Zhang Zihua frowned and said, "Sacrificial wine, what kind of fame are you doing?" ”

"Chiba, go back to the big Nakasho!"

"No!"

Chiba walked up to the person who came, and said, "His name is Gao Hui, and he is an ordinary farmer in Sanhe Village, Qiantang County, with two parents and a younger sister. His sister's name is Gao Lan, fourteen years old, born with a flower and moon appearance, and has promised to kiss. More than ten days ago, the monks of Dade Temple were called to treat the villagers for medical treatment, but in fact, in order to educate Buddhism, and by the way, to raise funds for the construction of Dade Temple, for a while also deceived many villagers to become believers. Coming to Gao's house, Gao's father is a Taoist of the Heavenly Master's Dao, who has been teaching for decades, is loyal and does not listen to the words of Buddhism, so he prepares wine and meat, entertains the monks, and then persuades them to leave. Unexpectedly, one of the monks, with a beast's heart, saw Gao Lan's beauty, and raped him while he was drunk, but Gao's parents couldn't stop him, and he was seriously injured one after another. ”

Zhang Zihua looked at Zhu Fayan and saw that he was still closing his eyes to calm down, he didn't seem to be nervous, and he didn't mean Chiba's accusation, and said, "You go on!" ”

Gao Hui came back from outside, saw the tragedy that happened at home, and went to find the monk theory, but was beaten out by the door guard of the mountain gate. Gao Hui had no choice but to report to the official, but Lu Mingfu took the county lieutenant Du Sansheng and a group of officials to inspect the inside and outside of the Gao family, and inquired many people in Dade Temple, but it was determined that it was a false accusation, and Gao Hui was beaten with 30 rods, driven home, and severely reprimanded the village secretary for being under control and not going out at will. Gao Lan was so ashamed that he hanged himself the next day, and Gao's parents were also seriously injured, and they died on the same day. After Gao Hui was punished with a cane, he was trapped in the fighting room, there was no medicine to treat, and he was dying, but fortunately, a Taoist secretly informed the Taoist official of Jinglu, so he was rescued. ”

Chiba's speech is clear and clever, and he speaks without any emotion, just talking about things, and making simple statements, but when he says it, he can make people feel the coldness and anger that is blowing through the bones.

The crime of false accusation existed in the Zhou Dynasty, and it has been recorded in the "Zhou Li", and the later "Nine Chapters of Law" in the Han Dynasty and the "Tang Law Shu Yi" in the Tang Dynasty all have a clear understanding and punishment measures for the crime of false accusation. Chu inherited the old system of the Han and Wei dynasties, and falsely accused of receiving thirty rods, which does not sound cruel enough, but in fact, thirty rods were beaten down, and most of his life was gone.

Zhang Zihua looked at Lu Hui and saw beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, and countless thoughts suddenly flashed in his heart: Since the establishment of the country of Chu in Jiangdong, the situation in Yangzhou has never been as turbulent as it is today. But no one knows what will happen next, and no one knows if such a dangerous confrontation will go completely out of control!

Maybe after some games, everyone takes what they need and is safe, or maybe they ......

When Zhang Zihua took office, An Zidao met him alone, but he asked less about Yangzhou if he had any talents, and more about whether the people's livelihood was withering and whether he was happy. Now that I think about it, the emperor should have realized the complexity of the situation in Yangzhou, so he reminded him a little, hoping that he could pay more attention to the dynamics of the situation in addition to promoting talents. It's just that I couldn't imagine that not long after I came to Yangzhou, I encountered a tricky matter of Zhu Fayan and Du Mingyu facing each other, and both sides refused to give up!

If Buddhism is chaotic, Yangzhou will be chaotic; If Yangzhou is in chaos, the country will be shaken. At that point, it's too late to regret!

"Ask Dazhong to avenge the villain!"

Gao Hui kowtowed heavily, the skull wrapped in fragile skin, and the extremely hard Nanmu floor made a fatal collision sound, and in just three or five strokes, the blood stains visible to the naked eye seeped into the texture of Nanmu. The Nanmu of the building when the rain is transported from Yizhou, the most precious, the cost is more than millions, stick closer, you can smell the faint fragrance, now this fragrance is wafting with the smell of blood, I don't know if it is a kind of irony?

Zhang Zihua didn't have the same voice as when he questioned Lu Hui just now, his tone was calm, his expression was indifferent, his broad palm was placed on the smooth table, he straightened up, and said, "Lu Hui, can there be such a thing?" ”

Lu Hui did not kneel down in a panic again, stood up calmly, and arched his hand: "This case is complicated, both sides insist on their own words, and the lower officials have not made a decision. It's just that Gao Hui roared in court that day and didn't listen to dissuasion, so he gave a slight punishment to set an example. Dazhong Zhengmingjian, if he was really sentenced to 30 canes for false accusation, how could he stand up for a few days, and where would he have the strength to run into the building in the rain and bite others? ”

The layman looks at the excitement, the insider looks at the doorway, Zhang Zihua and Lu Hui have two completely different performances before and after, fully interpreting the unspoken rules of the officialdom of Chu and the skills of dealing with people.

Du Mingyu's first attack was mainly aimed at Zhu Fayan's name, and what was related to Qiantang County was just the craftsman of the Baigong Academy, Zhang Zihua knew that Lu Hui must have a way to deal with it, so he pretended to be angry, just annoyed to outsiders. Lu Hui comprehended, and his sincere and frightened appearance gave Zhang Zihua enough official prestige, and also won the sympathy of others, and the two didn't need to say a word, so they teamed up to fool this matter over, and kept Zhu Fayan to confront Du Mingyu head-on.

The second time, that is, the appearance of Gao Hui, involved rape, injury and murder of three people, and the accusation was perverting the law, covering up, and colluding with officials and privates. Therefore, Zhang Zihua did not show his joy and anger, and came to inquire about the case with the city government and posture of the superior, so that he wanted to do official business, and no longer gave Lu Hui a chance to quibble and get out.

Lu Hui knows this very well, and he is also businesslike, saying three points in his words, hiding three points, and leaving three points of leeway, the first thing is to take himself out and wash it clean, and he must not be dragged into the mud by the monks to wait for death. He actually regretted a little in his heart, he received the report in a hurry, did not think carefully about the pros and cons, and was poured a few spoonfuls of rice soup by the people of Dade Temple, and rashly beat Gao Hui with thirty rods and expelled him from Dade Temple. I was thinking that the little lady of a peasant family had no power and no power, so I asked Dade Temple to arrange someone to deal with it afterwards, intimidate a few words, and send it away with some money. After all, it involves the woman's name festival, and it is the daughter to be married who has talked about family affairs, and the Gao family should not want to watch things get bigger. Unexpectedly, the woman was so strong that she didn't wait to send someone to deal with it, so she hanged herself desperately, and Gao's parents also died of anger.

Three lives are indeed not a trivial matter, but if you want to suppress it, with the power of Dade Temple and Qiantang County, you can completely press it without splashing at all. If it weren't for Gao Hui being secretly rescued by the people of the Heavenly Master's Dao, just waiting for him to be seriously injured and breathing, the family of four would be dead, and there would be no powerful relatives, so that the village secretary of Sanhe Village would come forward to bury him and report a violent death, the matter would be completely over.

But no one expected that since the White Snake case, the Heavenly Master Dao, who had almost disappeared in Qiantang, had been staring at Dade Temple in the dark, just waiting to make a mistake so that he could seize the handle of Buddhism and counterattack.

"Lu County Order, you said that this case is complicated, what is the complexity?"

"Yufujun, Gao Hui said that Gao Lan was raped, but it was just his one-sided words, and there was no physical evidence."

Gu Yun is young after all, he doesn't have Zhang Zihua's city government, and he is the Taishou of Wu County, and Qiantang County is a subordinate county under his rule, so he can't help but ask about such a big case. Just asked Lu Hui a few words, Zhang Zihua shook his head at him slightly, the intention was obvious, he was not allowed to interfere in this matter!

From the beginning of Du Mingyu's borrowing of Jingqiu to build Buddha, all the inquiries and statements on the bright side were handled by Zhang Zihua. In line with respect for his elders and bosses, his name was not mentioned, and Gu Yun was not strong, but if what Gao Hui said was true, this case was really tragic, and he was not hard-hearted, on the contrary, he was enthusiastic and affectionate, how could he bear it?

Gu Yun still refused to give up, and was about to speak, Zhang Zihua's eyes suddenly became stern, not angry but threatening, which made people tremble. Gu Lu Zhu Zhang, four surnames in one, Gu Yun grew up under Zhang Zihua's watch, no different from his own children and nephews. This time he was able to promote Wu Jun Taishou, and he also made a lot of efforts in the court, both public and private, and did not allow Gu Yun, who had a good future, to fall into this bottomless sewage swamp.

Gu Yun didn't dare to disobey Zhang Zihua, and he didn't want to stay out of the matter, he subconsciously looked at Xu You, and saw that he also shook his head, preventing himself from meddling in this matter.

If there is another person who can make Gu Yun obey without reservation, it is Xu You. Zhang Zihua was keenly aware of this, glanced at Xu You, and didn't say anything.

Lu Hui's argument was reasonable, but some people nodded secretly yes. Diao Min's false accusations are a common thing, what Gao Hui said may not be true, not to mention that there is a Heavenly Master Dao standing behind him, so it is even more unbelievable.

Gao Hui's eyes were cracking, if it weren't for Chiba holding him down, it was estimated that he would rush up and hug Lu Hui and bite him desperately: "Dog officer, how much money did you have to pay from that group of bald donkeys, and you tried to help them cover up their crimes?" My family of three, all of whom died unexpectedly, aren't you afraid that they will become powerful ghosts and ask you for your life? ”

Lu Hui smiled contemptuously and said: "The national cultivator, raising is Haoran righteousness, I have a clear conscience, dare to get close to the ghost?" Forgive me for being a little pariah, what knowledge do you have, but being at the mercy of others, wanting to take advantage of the death of your family to seek benefits, such a vicious heart, even if there are really powerful ghosts, they should ask you for your life! ”

"You! You ......"

Gao Hui spat out a mouthful of blood and lay on the ground dying. He was actually seriously injured, and thanks to the secret medicine of the Heavenly Master Dao, he supported his body and came to Yushi Tower, where he confronted Lu Hui and Zhu Fayan face to face. Helplessly, he was just an ordinary farmer, he didn't read or read, and when it came to his tongue, he was too far behind Lu Hui, obviously he was a victim, but he couldn't hold the reason, and he was angry for a while, and his blood was spilled on the spot.

Zhang Zihua is silent, the higher the position, the more different the angle from which he looks at the problem. Gao Hui's tragedy is only four people, but if it is not handled well, it may be a tragedy of thousands of people, which is more important, he has his own plans in his heart!

"Lu Hui, did you conduct an autopsy with Wen Po? Is Gao Lan complete? ”

"It's not! But the lower officials found out that Gao Lan and her unmarried husband Li Han had an affair, and they were not perfect for a long time! ”

"Huh?" Zhang Zihua frowned and said, "Is there such a thing?" ”

"Yes, Li Han has confessed, and there is his painting confession in the county office! Therefore, it is not enough to believe that Gao Lan is not perfect to judge the rape case in Gao Hui's mouth! ”

"What about the high parents? Do you have any scars on your body? ”

"Not really!"

"What do the neighbors say?"

"The Gao family is located on the west side of Sanhe Village, which is relatively remote, and the nearest neighbor is also a mile away, so no one hears the sounds of asking for advice and fighting." Lu Hui did not pause in the slightest when he spoke, his tone was firm and earnest, he seemed righteous and awe-inspiring, full of persuasion, and said: "According to the confessions of other villagers in Sanhe Village, there were indeed five monks from Dade Temple who knocked on the door of the village from house to house that day, but they were all kind and pleasant, kind and kind-eyed, and had a lot of courtesy, not only to see a doctor and give medicine, but also to pray for the villagers, not as fierce and evil as Gao Hui said!" ”

Zhang Zihua nodded, turned to Du Mingyu, and said: "Sacrificial wine, you have heard what Lu Hui said, do you have any conclusive evidence in your hands about the case against the monks of Dade Temple?" ”

Du Mingyu sighed: "It's better for Gao Hui to say, he is the bitter master, and he will sue in person, so he can rest assured in the future!" ”

"But...... Is he still able to speak? ”

"No problem! If he couldn't even save himself, the Heavenly Master Dao would have disappeared a long time ago...... Chiba! ”

Chiba took out another glass jade bottle from the dark sac, similar to the shape of Fang Cai, the hardwood plugging the bottle mouth is slightly different, that one is red, this one is yellow, and there seem to be countless treasures hidden around him, which is very interesting. Chiba poured out a golden pill from the jade bottle and fed it with water. In an instant, Gao Hui struggled to sit up, rejuvenated, his face was ruddy, his spirit was high, his eyes were overflowing, and he didn't look like a dying man at all!

Du Mingyu said softly: "Gao Hui, if you go back to Dazhongzheng, do you have enough evidence to prove that Ling Mei was insulted and was done by the monks of Dade Temple?" ”

"Yes, I have ......"

Zhu Wujue suddenly stood up, pointed at Gao Hui and said angrily: "Where did the Diao people come from, who dared to defile the holy land of Buddhism with false words? If you dare to say one more word, don't blame me for protecting the Dharma and subduing demons! ”

The middle-aged Taoist priest sneered: "What are you afraid of, what are you panicking about?" Is it because you have a ghost and can't help yourself? ”

Zhu Wujue had humiliated the middle-aged Taoist priest before, and his argument was very passable, but this time he was stumbling and couldn't speak correctly, which caused everyone to suddenly become suspicious. Zhang Zihua was a little displeased, and said, "I didn't stop you from taking a seat, it's your turn to speak?" Still not quitting? Gao Hui, you say, what evidence is there? Human or physical evidence? ”

"Physical evidence!"

Gao Hui said sadly: "My sister left a blood book before she died, which said that Yang Feng who injured the monk, and in order to have evidence as evidence, my sister couldn't be ashamed, saying that the monk was ...... The monk ...... "He bit his lower lip, his teeth sank into the flesh for three points, and the skin of his lips burst with blood, flowing down his jaw to the placket of his clothes, almost becoming a bloody man, "That monk is a big yin man!" ”

The word Yangfeng, Xu You knows, as for the origin of the big yin people, he didn't expect it for a while, but looking at the looks of everyone in the hall, or embarrassed, surprised, or curious, he instantly understood. Dayin people are Sima Qian's original name, used to describe the Qin Dynasty Changxin Hou Changyu's exclusive noun, and later after hundreds of years of inheritance and evolution, it was used as a slang term by the folk to describe people as powerful as Chang Yu.

Xu You came from the later generations, and he didn't know much about these slang, but fortunately, the atmosphere of the Chu State was very open, and even a little girl like Gao Lan had heard of the three words "big yin person", otherwise this case would really be dead without proof, and it would be difficult to determine.

"Alright, don't say it!"

Gu Yun couldn't stand it anymore, and letting an elder brother tell the details about his sister's rape was more uncomfortable than killing him. There is nothing more tragic in the world than this. Ignoring Zhang Zihua's strict orders and Xu You's dissuasion, he resolutely stepped forward, helped Gao Hui up, and said, "Do you know the name of that monk?" ”

"I know, when those five people entered the house, they all signed up for their own numbers, and that brute, called, called Zhu Wuxuan!"
