Chapter 122: You Are Mine (2)

Chang An grabbed the entourage's shirt and asked sharply, "Have you checked it out?!" Is it really Yun Xiangming?! ”

"Thousand, true! A few days ago, someone came to hand over the name post, claiming to be the steward of Tai Xiangxing, for his young lady to meet the adult you, but somehow the name of the post came to the person but did not come, the small left and right and so on can not see people, then thought it was a fraud, so did not think much about it. Now I know that the woman is Yun Xiangming's daughter Yun, and she was somehow mistakenly guided to the official post that day! She had been living in seclusion on the outskirts of Luo'an before, and she was unknown, but she was actually the actual person in charge of Tai Xiangxing! ”

Yun Xiangming he knows, the long history of the Xiangwang Mansion, known as the great butler of the King of Xiangjun, after the death of the King of Xiangjun, he became the head of the old department of the palace, this person abandoned politics and business, established several commercial houses in Xiangzhou, and claimed to be the old retainer of the county lord of Yi'an, and led the business house to swear allegiance to Liu Yi, the county lord of Yi'an.

Chang An's face was covered with cold sweat, his back was cold, and after kicking away the entourage, he rushed to Luo'an Prison in a panic to interrogate Tang Jingwen.

Unexpectedly, Yin Xue Peiqi of Luo'an Mansion had taken Tang Jingwen first, and now Tang Jingwen has been escorted to Luo'an Mansion for a public trial!

Chang An had to rush to the palace without stopping, only to see that the inside and outside of the palace were crowded with people, he finally squeezed in, and saw that the gentry and businessmen with heads and faces in Luo'an had already sat on both sides of the public hall to listen, and the palace Yin Xue Peiqi was seated in the middle hall, and on the right was Ye Cizhun of Taifu Temple, and the position on the left was vacant.

As soon as Xue Peiqi saw Chang An, he hurriedly attended, walked to the front of the hall and invited him to his left side. Chang An wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, nodded and sat down, and had long lost the prestige of the imperial envoy.

Xue Peiqi knocked on the startled wood, and the hall was solemn.

Xue Peiqi then turned to Chang An and said, "Lord Chang, this case involves the two divisions of my Luo'an Mansion and Pingzhuan, which was originally the internal affairs of the government, but now Xue is not strict in discipline, and there is such a scandal that fills his pockets, so he should naturally be interrogated first and give an explanation to the people from all walks of life in Luo'an." If there is anything wrong, how about asking Lord Chang to be brought to court for the second trial as a special envoy of the imperial court? ”

This statement is reasonable and well-founded, and he agrees with it both inside and outside, and Chang An has nothing to say, so he can only nod his head and agree.

"Whoever is in the hall and what he has committed, come quickly!"

Tang Jingwen calmly kowtowed three times, and replied, "Hui Yu, the villain is Tang Jingwen, the head of Taixiangxing Firm, who sued Zhang Huai, the commander of Luo'an Mansion, and Li Zuo, the commander of Pingzhun, who ignored the law of the country, deceived the superiors and subordinates, and failed to coerce and lure Taixiangxing, so he bullied the weak and forced Taixiangxing to buy and equalize the in-kind tribute tax outflow of the two divisions at a high price, so as to profit from it and fill his own pockets!" Now that the matter is exposed, he bites Tai Xiangxing again, causing me to Tai Xiangxing Twenty or thirty people were innocently arrested and imprisoned, which is really a strange injustice in the world! I ask all the adults in the hall to be aware of everything and return our good people to a clean slate! ”

As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar!

Xue Peiqi stopped everyone's discussion and asked Tang Jingwen what evidence he had.

Tang Jingwen also reported that all kinds of evidence, goods and account books, etc., were stored in the warehouse in the west of Taixiang Xingcheng.

Xue Peiqi immediately sent someone to get it, and after a while, he brought in a few large boxes and a stack of account books. After the boxes were put down, they were all opened, and the ledgers were presented to Xue Peiqi's case.

Tang Jingwen continued to report, "These boxes are filled with the in-kind tribute tax from the two divisions, whether it is texture, fineness, or quality, they are exactly the same as those stored in the division. What is recorded in the ledger is the source, price, and quantity of the goods. The price can be made public, please ask all the squires in the hall to take a look, is it sky-high? ! No firm that is still sensible will buy goods at such a price! Zhang Huai and Li Zuo did not dare to put their own seals on the account books, so they asked their subordinates in the house to fall their private seals, I don't know if the people who have fallen the seals have escaped, and please go to get people quickly, and give us a fair Taixiangxing! ”

Xue Peiqi really sent someone to the two warehouses to transfer goods, compared them in the hall, and sent the account books to the people who were watching to circulate them.

The people who fell into the chapter naturally fled early in the morning, but Yun Xiangming had already laid a net around Luo'an, and a few people were caught by Yun Xiangming's people before they left the city, which had been pressed to the front of the hall, and they were all kowtowing like pounding garlic, saying that it was instructed by the master of the family, and the account books were all approved by the master and asked them to sign the seal, they only signed the seal, and the rest did not know.

The human and material evidence are all there, the true idea of the case has been revealed, Xue Peiqi was about to send a sign to arrest Zhang Huai and Li Zuo, and an entourage had already come in to say that Zhang Huai and Li Zuo had a sudden illness and died violently at home!

Why did you die violently?! Obvious murder! As soon as this statement came out, the crowd was surging!

Hearing the news of the violent death of the two, Chang An finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out a handkerchief and wiped his sweat, fortunately, he had a foresight when he found out that Tang Jingwen was taken away, and sent someone to poison the two of them first, otherwise these two people would inevitably not confess to him Chang An in order to save their lives, once he was confessed, even if the crime was not to death, King Xi would not leave him alive!

As soon as Zhang Huai and Li Zuo died, the clues were broken, and the case could only be traced back to the two of them. Xue Peiqi closed the case on the spot and submitted it to Chang An and Ye Cizhun for deliberation. Chang An originally wanted to shirk and go back to see before making a decision, and come up with a plan to delay the army, but the crowd was surging outside, and it seemed that he couldn't even go out of the gate of this mansion without giving an explanation on the spot, so he had no choice but to sign and agree, and the case was closed on the spot, and everyone in Taixiangxing was acquitted.

Ye Cizhun was leisurely drinking tea from beginning to end, without saying a word. This is natural, he said that he was only here to understand the facts of the case, and no matter how the government and the special envoy tried and judged, he did not say a word.

As soon as the case was concluded, Chang An had no choice but to return to the court and report the results to Emperor Hongyuan.

Ye Cizhun didn't want to go back so soon, Su Yuming finally got it back, where was he willing to leave? After the abnormal An returns, there will be Xue Chunyue to continue the second half. He stole half a day of leisure, so he naturally wanted to live happily for a few days in the annex on the outskirts of Luo'an City.

Zhang Huai and Li Zuo died violently in full view of everyone, and rumors spread in Luo'an, some said that these two people were the lackeys of a certain court magnate, specializing in helping the magnates make money; It is said that Hengxing acted against Tai Xiangxing, and after the burning of the warehouse, it was another series of schemes; What's more, when they directly aimed at King Xi and Wei Ying, they said that it was a bitter plan planned by these two people to bring down Xue Chunyue and Ye Cizhun together...... In short, it goes on and on.

Involving the face of the imperial court, these two people can't die in vain, Emperor Hongyuan immediately ordered Dali Temple to go to Luo'an to investigate the cause of death of the two people, and give an explanation to the people of the world!

Where did Chang'an's clumsy methods escape the eyes of Dali Temple, and within a few days, his original form was revealed, and he went to prison in Dali Temple. Chang An knew that he would not die, King Xi would be difficult to feel at ease, at that time, the life of the family was worried, and he could still save the family if he died, so he wrote a confession in the prison of Dali Temple, only saying that he was jealous of the virtuous and jealous, and specially put out this case of planting, in order to slander Ye Cizhun, and then take advantage of this meritorious service to seek the position of Taifu Temple.

Dali Temple followed the trail and investigated and dealt with several people who depended on Chang An to help him make trouble, and dismissed them and investigated them together. The targets on the surface of this matter were Xue Chunyue and Ye Cizhun, but they were actually dissatisfied with the reform of the imperial court, so Emperor Hongyuan severely punished Chang An, sentenced him to beheading, and warned the hundred officials. At this point, this farce finally came to an end, and King Xi had to restrain his majesty.

As the truth of the case surfaced, Ye Qinyu finally understood that this was designed by Ye Cizhun and Xue Chunyue a long time ago, and she herself was kept in the dark and didn't know at all! So he asked Xue Chunyue Xingshi for his guilt!

The door of the study was pushed open by Ye Qinyu, startling Xue Chunyue, who was drinking tea, and his hands shook, almost being scalded by the hot tea!

He hurriedly put down the teacup and said complainingly, "Madam, can you talk well......

Ye Qinyu was not angry, and asked straight to the point, "Did you tell Uncle Xiao Zhun the truth about Sister Yu Ming's fake death?!" "The scam designed by Cao Yingze is perfect, how can it be so easy for Ye Cizhun to see through? She thought about it, and only Xue Chunyue was the most likely traitor by her side.

"Wronged! Absolutely wronged! I was only informed of Chang'an's plan before I went to Luo'an, and then I learned that he had already learned about Yu Ming's fake death, only a few days before you......"

"No wonder you stopped me from going to Loan...... Then you say, how did Uncle Junn know? ”

Xue Chunyue hugged her little lady on her lap and kissed her before saying slowly, "First, Jingyang Hou didn't come back with Cao Yingze; Second, Cao Yingze impatiently returned to Luo'an the day after he sent Yu Ming's spiritual position back to Changxing. ”

"Speak completely, don't just talk about the result!" Ye Qinyu pounded Xue Chunyue's chest and sneered at him.

"Cao Yingze is the treasure of the Hou Mansion of Jingyang, the whole house, especially Mrs. Cao and Mrs. Cao, love him very much, if the Hou Ye didn't see him Anyang is safe, he will not return to Beijing alone, because he can't explain to the old mother and Mrs. If Yu Ming really died in Beijiang, then according to Cao Yingze's personality, he would cry in Beijiang for at least seven hundred and forty-nine days, and then maybe he would jump into the river and be martyred! However, Hou Ye came back calmly, indicating that there was nothing wrong with Cao Yingze, so Yu Ming couldn't be fine. Secondly, it is still Cao Yingze, if Yu Ming is really dead, it is impossible for him to leave her spiritual position and turn around and run to Luo'an to be merry, the reason why he hurried back to Luo'an is to show that Yu Ming is in Luo'an, and he wants to go back to see her! ”

Ye Qinyu suddenly realized...... After a pause, he remembered that he was still hiding his Chang'an's affairs, and hurriedly asked, "Then why didn't you tell me about Chang'an in the morning?" I've been worried about Tai Xiangxing! ”
