Shen Gui's virtue with a hippie smile hated the two officials who were in charge of the execution. Originally, the two of them could not see cash in every case. First, there are not many opportunities to try cases in the lobby; Second, most of the people who want to fight lawsuits in the lobby are also poor. So logically speaking, it is an ordinary thing for this prisoner to refuse to give money, and it will not make the two of them so angry at all.

But the prisoner in front of him was different. He is the cousin of the Zhongshan Palace, and now he is the only heir, as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, no matter what point he falls to, he will definitely not lack these few taels of broken silver.

What's more, Shen Gui was originally in Fengjing City, and he also had a reputation for fighting righteousness and squandering money, so naturally he wouldn't care about the small amount of ten taels and twenty taels. In front of him, he didn't open the steps he handed over, which clearly looked down on his two brothers!

The official who opened his mouth to ask questions opened his mouth and spit a mouthful of foam into the palm of his hand, and tightly clutched the ruthless stick of water and fire in front of the thick and thin back, and held the stick tightly with one palm in front and one palm in the back. The hands that smoothed out their saliva and twisted back and forth a few times while holding the stick, rubbing the stick and making a creaking sound.

After this behavior, the official looked at Shen Gui who was standing with his head held high in front of him viciously, and grinded out a "squeak" sound of yellow teeth:

"Young Master Shen, I originally thought that you must be a good friend who has never met before, but looking at your current meaning, it is estimated that you want to weigh our brothers first. Well, you are ready, and we brothers will serve you well. ”

Shen Gui looked at the ruthless servant, first shook his head regretfully, and then looked at Wei Anheng, who was sitting behind the desk and angry, and said loudly:

"The two errand brothers, it's not that I, Shen Gui, am stingy and sacrifice my life for money. It's just that you adults have twenty boards, and he couldn't hit me in the first place! If you want to blame, you can only blame this Lord Wei for not knowing how to do things, but you can't blame me Shen Guitou. ”

As soon as Wei Anheng heard Shen Gui's words, he knew that he had no thoughts of "violent resistance". Yes, these third-class officials are standing in the hall bravely, and Wei Anheng still knows how much ability he has in his hands. Now there are so many people from the rivers and lakes gathered in the lobby, and they are all watching coldly now, but after all, they have also followed Shen Gui together and stirred up the altar! If Shen Gui turned his face on the spot and intended to kill the official and rebel, then these rivers and lakes were reckless, even if they didn't dare to follow him to make trouble, they definitely had no possibility of facing themselves!

At that time, as long as Shen Gui fled to Beiyan or Nankang, or even to the Mobei grassland, he would not expect to be captured in this life. However, no matter whether he escapes in the future or not, as long as he makes this determination, he will definitely be the first to confess.

Just for the martyrdom of twenty sticks, Wei Anheng does not have such a noble consciousness at present. So as soon as he saw Shen Gui's attitude of laying out the facts and reasoning, the uneasy heart was put back in his stomach.

"The prisoner under the hall, this official is Yin Wei Anheng of Fengjing Mansion, Feng! Above! Instruct! Investigate the murder of the Great Shamanic Elder Bagh. Now that the official has summoned you to come for questioning, you don't bow and don't kneel, and at this moment you are still making insulting remarks against the government, so rude, twenty sticks is already a small punishment and a big commandment. ”

Although Wei Anheng's words sounded extremely tough at first glance, he deliberately accentuated the three words "dedication", which became a typical introspect, which obviously wanted to shirk responsibility. The timid appearance of the master of the family guard fell in the eyes of the officials, and naturally he vented the hardness in his chest.

Of course, Shen Gui understands that this is the consistent style of Wei Anheng and his people. In this treacherous Fengjing City, it is necessary to maneuver between all forces, but also not to secretly fall to either side, so it can only be this kind of character. If it weren't for that, not only would he not be able to keep this official hat of Fengjing Mansion Yin, but even his own little life, he would not know which mass grave he would be thrown into.

Consideration is understanding, and understanding is understanding. But Shen Gui still didn't like his weak temper. After listening to Wei Anheng's words, he looked left and right at those familiar "witnesses", shook his head and said:

"Lord Hui Wei, you just said that the purpose of arresting Shen this time is to investigate the murder of the Great Shamanist Elder Bage. If so, these twenty sticks, you just can't hit Shen and me! ”

Wei Anheng didn't know whether he was really curious, or he took advantage of the situation to get off the donkey, changed his majestic appearance, leaned forward, and instead made a "listen" attitude:

"Oh? Then tell me, why can't this official beat you? ”

"The deceased in this murder was a great elder of the shamanic religion; The person who handled it was Sun Baizhi, the second shopkeeper of the Fengjing Medical Center; Therefore, the person who is qualified to appeal on behalf of the deceased Bagh can only be the current great elder of the shamanic religion, Lin Siwei. However, in view of the fact that the current great shaman has been wandering for many years, he can also be represented by the shamanic protector He Wendao. Master Wei, in this way, it seems that most of the main people involved in this case are shamanic people, do you say? ”

Wei Anheng nodded, and replied to Shen Gui slowly:

"What you said, the official is naturally very clear. However, this official has recently ascertained that Sun Baizhi, the second shopkeeper of Sun's Medical Center, has no involvement in this case. That's why I'm going to invite you today, come to the case to explain. ”

"If it is according to what the adults said, then Sun Baizhi and Sun's Medical Center have nothing to do with this case, yes or no?"

"Yes."

"So, all the people in this case are shamanic people, yes or no?"

When Shen Gui asked this sentence, Wei Anheng's eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood a little in his heart. However, he deliberately asked Shen Gui with an impatient expression:

"Yes, yes, you're right. Criminal, Shen Gui, what else do you want to say? If there is nothing else to say, this official will not have the time to listen to you going around in circles here, quickly take down your twenty court staffs, and start the trial is the main topic! ”

"My lord, I don't know anything. When did this shamanic internal affairs come under the jurisdiction of the local government? Even if I, Shen Gui, really committed the matter of secretly murdering the Great Elder Bagh, it is only natural that He Wendao, the Great Protector in charge of rewards and punishments in shamanism, should preside over the trial of this "teaching affairs". If it was really Shen who deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors and murdered the elders of the shamanic sect, then he should also soak me in fire oil and burn my body according to the rules of shamanism! Lord Wei, have you ever heard of any goddess or wizard who was pushed out of the north gate and beheaded and executed? ”

Shen Gui's words were extremely clear. This matter is an internal affair of the shamanism, and you, as the Yin of Fengjing Mansion, have no right to hear this case at all. According to the rules of shamanism, even if an ordinary shaman makes a mistake, it must be on the altar, and the shamanic protector will preside over the judgment.

Wei Anheng was happy in his heart, but his face was extremely ugly, and his mouth was open for a long time without saying a whole word, but he kept saying "Ah...... Well...... This ......", these tone words make people feel that today's Wei adults must be in a dilemma in their hearts.

"Ahem!"

From behind the screen in the lobby, a light cough came out. This gentle coughing sound reached Wei Anheng's ears, but it was no less than a thunderbolt. He could instantly hear that this unique sound came from the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison Forage Room who had come to deliver the two holy decrees last night.

I don't know if this lackey from Lu Xiangyin's door came again early in the morning, or if he didn't go back at all last night. But now this voice is clearly warning himself about Fang Cai's very ambiguous attitude.

If it's just two holy decrees, you can still have a soft drag, kick the ball and go around in circles; But now, as soon as the spies of the forage room of the Imperial Horse Supervisor intervened like this, it was clear that they had sent an overseer to themselves. It's just not clear whether this hand is the meaning of Emperor Xuande or the meaning of Lu Xiangyin. But for me, it doesn't matter who it is. The true identity of this overseer, since he is not afraid to let himself know, also represents the determination of the person who gave the order: Or, take off Shen Gui's head; Or, use the head of your own family on top.

So, Wei Anheng, who had no way out, gritted his teeth and slapped him in shock:

"Bold criminal, it is true that the bitter master in this case is shamanism, but what does you have to do with shamanism? As far as this official knows, you are the grandson of Guo Yunsong, the former prince of Zhongshan, and although you were brought up by the great shaman Lin Siwu after birth, you have never held a psychic ceremony, so you cannot be regarded as a person in shamanism. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Anheng, who was cornered, showed a fierce light in his eyes, and stared at Shen Gui with a stunned expression viciously:

"Now, you Shen Guiyi has no official status, and second, you are not a person in shamanism, of course, this official can be beaten and killed. I advise you to be more understanding, maybe you can save Guo Gongyunsong's life, so that his old man can enjoy his old age in peace. Shen Gui, Shen Gui, you, understand? ”

Shen Gui's face suddenly became gloomy, and the people from the rivers and lakes who came to testify also changed their solemn expressions. For a while, the lobby of Fengjing Mansion, which was originally unorthodox, now has a strong smell of blood in the air.
