Chapter 534: Keep You from Dead
On the second day, near noon, Li Sui's personal guards captured the upline who picked up the goods.
That guy actually knows a few punches and kicks, the person has a scruffy beard, very strong, but the body is as light as a swallow, it took a lot of twists and turns to catch him, how to bear his opponent is the emperor's personal guard today, a first-class master, although those officials of the Qianhu Mansion were beaten down, this personal guard still caught him.
The man was pressed and knelt in the hall by the guards, his face was bruised and swollen from being beaten by the guards, and he glanced at Li Sui, who was sitting behind the table, with a disdainful face.
"Who's in the hall?!"
Li Sui: "Smack! The man trembled with fright, but he quickly calmed down, looked at Li Sui with a slight frown, and said, "Who are you?!" You are not a thousand households here, why are you sitting in the public court and interrogating me?! Besides, what did I do? Why did you arrest me? ”
The mouth is harder than that guy in the bank!
The guard took out the waist card he had prepared in advance and handed it to the bearded man, and the bearded man saw that it was actually the official of Jingzhao Mansion Yin.
Jingzhao Mansion Yin's official, how could he come here? It's not very close to the capital, and there is a county in the middle, and the bearded eyes keep turning, and I don't know what's going on for a while, so is there something going on? However, I haven't heard a little wind in the past few days.
However, if it weren't for something going on above, how could this official who managed the capital come here? If you just catch the bandit gang and catch your own people, you should also be from the county.
If it was the county and the county who came to catch themselves today, how could they catch it? Today's opponent who captures himself is by no means an ordinary idle person,
This young man sitting behind the table should not be underestimated.
But, so what, we don't have no one above, "My lord, the little one's surname is Chen Mingxing, the little one just wants to go to the City God Temple to worship a god today, but he was caught here by this official, the little one doesn't know what mistakes he made, please make it clear." ”
Who would believe a man with five big and three thick, a scruffy beard, and a face full of flesh, going to worship God in the City God Temple? I insist on pretending to be a good man and a woman, is that pretending?
Li Sui waved to the officer, and the officer walked into the back hall and escorted Xiahou, the man from the money village who had been waiting in the back hall early, and Xiahou knelt on the side, glanced at Chen Xing, and lowered his head in a shrunken manner.
That Chen Xing looked at Xiahou fixedly, his eyes were full of cruelty, he scolded while getting up, "Okay, you are a king and eight Xiahou, you betray Lao Tzu, see how Lao Tzu cleans you up, let you go to the West Heaven now!" ”
That Xiahou didn't see it well, and got up to hide, but the body had long since stopped obeying the call, and he was paralyzed and couldn't move, just looked at the evil face in horror,
Seeing this, Li Sui frowned slightly, and casually picked up the inkstone on the table, "Huh! The ground was thrown out, and it hit Chen Xing's knee impartially, Chen Xing "Ah! With a bang, he knelt down on the ground, and looked back at Li Sui in horror, it turned out that there were more powerful characters here than first-class masters,
"This is the court! How can you make a mistake! ”
It seems that today, it is impossible to get out of here.
That Xiahou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead that was startled, quickly knelt down, leaned over and said, "Lord Xie, help." ”
Li Sui lowered his head and didn't look at him, "I said, I will keep you from dying!" ”
Xiahou kowtowed again, "Lord Xie!" ”
Li Sui glanced at Chen Xing, who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "He has signed the pledge, how long do you want to deny it?!" Do you have to go to the capital and confront your master in the capital before you are willing to confess?! ”
Attacking the heart, he naturally knows how to use this information.
Li Sui slapped the shocked wood again, "Smack!" There was a crisp sound on the ground, and the Qian Zhuang guy Xiahou was shaken by the body, and Chen Xing was also shocked into a cold sweat, Li Sui's skill just now had already made him afraid,
This adult actually knew the master in the capital, and he turned his head to look at Xiahou again, Xiahou was already too frightened to raise his head, and knelt there softly, trembling vigorously.
Li Sui saw that Chen Xing was still hesitating, and said: "If you don't want to say it, there is no need to say it today, let's leave in the afternoon and return to the capital, and you can go to the prison of Jingzhao Mansion Yin." ”
"However, if our people get all the news from other people's mouths, you don't need to say anything, just ask and behead!"
After that, Li Sui was about to get up, Chen Xing wiped the sweat on his forehead, he naturally understood better than Xia Hou what kind of crime he was doing, he originally only thought it was ......, hey!
Seeing that Li Sui was leaving, he hurriedly shouted, "My lord." ”
Li Sui slowly sat back again.
"Adult, the little one asks the adult to protect the little one."
Chen Xing said, kneeling forward and taking two steps, "My lord, if the little one explains the things here and the people here, can the adult agree to spare the little one's life?" ”
This guy was about to kill Xiahou in court just now, and at first glance he was a ruthless character, and it was really a scourge to keep him, but the Jingguan behind him was the real confidant.
"Well, I promise you, as long as the information you provide is true and helpful, I will keep you as well. However, there will be a punishment. ”
Na Chen Xing swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "My lord, then I'll tell you everything I know." ”
"The little one was resisted because of a robbery of other people's silver taels a few years ago, and the little one stabbed a person at the time, and was finally caught by a group of people hired by the rich family and sent to the official, but I didn't expect that the person who was stabbed by me died within a few days, and the little one was sentenced to be beheaded after the autumn,"
"Just a month before the little one was about to be beheaded, a mysterious person from nowhere saved the little one."
"The small one received a period of training, and then practiced the current martial arts, and then, the small one was sent here, as a small leader here, the small task is to be responsible for collecting the silver taels handed over from these eight places, if any place does not pay the silver taels on time, or, each time the payment is less than one hundred taels, the small one will kill the bandit leader here, or beat him into a disability, and then be responsible for choosing a better candidate."
Sure enough, I was not mistaken, this person was an executioner who killed people without blinking, "Who are you going to give the money you collect?" "Let's go
"Go back to the adults, the small ones will be sent to a cloth village in the capital,"
Li Sui owed a debt forward, "Does this cloth village have a serious name?" Who opened it? ”
"Lord Hui, this cloth village is called Li's cloth village, and the boss's name is Li Shiyu."
Li Shiyu? I haven't heard of this person, there are many officials surnamed Li in the court, but there is no one with this name among the descendants and relatives, is there anyone I haven't heard of? Or, the person could be a relative.
Li Sui raised his head and immediately lowered his brows when he saw Chen Xing, he didn't dare to look at himself.
"Chen Xing, let me ask you, who is the boss behind this cloth village?"
Chen Xing rolled his violent eyes and said, "Adult, this, the little one doesn't know." ”
"Chen Xing, you must know that your robber network is very large, almost all over the country, it is not difficult for me to find a person who is willing to confess everything, as long as I agree to save his life, without you, we can also wipe everyone out! You don't have to babble in front of me. Wait and go back to the capital directly. ”
Li Sui's tone was gentle, but this relaxed tone showed a kind of determination that was inevitable, Chen Xing was a rough person, ruthless but reckless, distrustful of others, but extremely stupid.
"Adults, the little ones just want to, I don't know what kind of punishment the little ones will be sentenced to."
He's still calculating his own dog's life! His blood debt must be indispensable.
"The lightest, it should be exile."
When Chen Xing heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed three times on the ground, "My lord, since this is the case, the little one told the adult, and the small one also heard about it, but I have never seen it, the behind-the-scenes boss of the Li family's cloth village, surnamed Chen, is said to be an official in the court, and it is said that the power in the palace cannot be underestimated." ”
Old? The power in the palace?
Could it be him?!
"So, after you handed over your goods to the boss of the Li Cloth Village, was it Li Shiyu, the owner of the Li Cloth Village, who approached this adult?"
Chen Xing hurriedly kowtowed, "Yes, my lord, we have never been in contact with this legendary Lord Chen, and this is also what Li Shiyu and Boss Li said when they were appeasing their brothers, and we only knew if they missed something." ”
Li Sui's expression gradually became solemn, and a touch of murderous aura gradually appeared in his eyes!
When Chen Xing saw it, his heart couldn't help but tremble, it's over, is this person going to kill someone after the case is finished?
I knew that this was the case, so I might as well not say it, but now, I have said it, let me run, I don't dare to run, and when I run outside, I will be chased and killed.
Chen Xing looked at Li Sui blankly,
Li Sui coldly ordered: "Set off immediately and return to the capital!" Escort Chen Xing and Xiahou back to Beijing together, and temporarily secretly put them in the prison to wait for the verdict! ”
So two prisoner carts with tents slowly drove in the direction of the capital.
The thousand households looked at the adults in the capital and marched towards the capital with two such important prisoners, and their intestines were about to repent.
Originally, I thought that more things are better than less things, so the case of this Qian Zhuang guy has not been tried for a long time, but I didn't expect it to involve a big case of a robber's nest.
If you take this money bank guy and send it to the county, it will definitely be a great achievement, and when the time comes, you must be able to be promoted to a county official because of your meritorious work in handling the case, and it will really be an official of the imperial court.
However, a few days later, the remorseful Qianhu encountered something even more disturbing, and he received a letter from the county, officially abolishing his position as a Qianhu and announcing that he would never be hired.
That's an afterword.
When Li Sui returned to the capital, Aunt Lan hurriedly came over to meet her and told Li Sui that she had secretly sent the two henchmen out to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the lovesick girl.
Li Sui also ordered Aunt Lan to send people to squat in the Li family's cloth village, check the movements of the Li family's money village, and send people to keep an eye on Chen Shangshu's every move.
Aunt Lan took the order and left, and after two days, she came to report to Li Sui, and it had been discovered that Li's cloth village had frequent personnel in the past two days, and people in and out rarely bought goods, but those people were obviously very familiar with the boss Li Shiyu,
And that boss Li Shiyu recently went to Chen Shangshu's mansion, which seemed to be unbeatable, entered through the back door, and came out of the back door half an hour later.
It seems that most of the officials in the capital mentioned by the two thieves are him!
Li Sui sat behind the desk in the imperial study, lowered his eyebrows and thought for a long time,
"Spread my secret message and arrest Li Shiyu, the owner of Li's Cloth Village, for defrauding the reputation of customers!"
"Summon Chen Shangshu into the palace to discuss the Rouran war!"
"Yes!"
Aunt Lan received the order and went to Jingzhao Mansion to read out the emperor's secret message, although Yin of Jingzhao Mansion did not know what was going on, but Aunt Lan still knew him, and quickly brought several officers and soldiers from Jingzhao Mansion to quickly surround Li's Cloth Village, and arrested Li Shiyu, the owner of Li's Cloth Village, and more than ten people, and even the customers who were in the Cloth Village at that time were also brought back to the Yamen.
Then, a major search was carried out on Lee's cloth village.
