"Ordinary small fish and shrimp, uncle is afraid of dirty hands! If there is no use value, wouldn't it be a surprise? Qu Ping said in a frightened manner.

Mrs. Du gradually gained confidence: "You know who I am, and you still arrest me?" ”

"Haha, before you die, we might as well tell you about our plan. Grab you, blackmail your master, drain him of important information he knows, and send you on your way. This is our plan to kill chickens and take eggs. ”

Mrs. Du was so frightened that she was shocked, the other party knew her status, but she didn't know her identity! If they come for real, won't they die in a daze?

Mrs. Du didn't want to die, she couldn't help her desire for life, and said, "Don't, don't worry, I'll tell you!" I am the wife of Du Chong, the observer of Jeju in the Great Song Dynasty! Du Chong! ”

"Du Chong? Can you guess who I am, Madame? ”

"You ...... You're from the Golden Country, aren't you? Mrs. Du guessed carefully.

"If Mrs. Du only guesses these, I'm afraid she won't be able to save your life!"

"We ...... We are our own people! My lord is friends with you! ”

"It turned out to be Lord Du's wife, fortunately." The color of the bending plane is good.

Mrs. Du said excitedly: "What a misunderstanding! The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple. Quick, help me out! ”

Qu Ping said: "Don't worry, Mrs. Du, Lord Du has done such a vigorous thing, we will take you and Lord Du together to avoid accidents." After saying that, Qu Ping knocked her unconscious with a palm.

The Lord of the Criminal Department and Chen Ping could sweat when they heard it, but they didn't expect that Lord Guogong used this kind of partial method to pull out a big fish in the dark river. I didn't expect that this big fish was Du Chong, and I don't know if Du Chong was directly related to the grain depot fire case.

However, Du Chong's wife doesn't seem to be looking for the right one, and she hasn't been educated well, how can such a crucial information be said casually! Is it not a curse from the mouth? What a careless choice of wife!

Chen Ping asked, "My lord, what do you mean ......?"

"That's not what I meant, it's a fact." Qu Ping said.

Lord of the Criminal Department asked tentatively, "Lord Guogong, how did you come up with it?" ”

Qu Ping said bluntly: "Blind." ”

The Lord of the Criminal Department and Chen Ping looked at each other, if they were blind, this would be too easy to deceive!

On the third day of Qu Ping's arrival in Jeju, all the soldiers guarding the grain had gathered in the courtyard of the granary to listen to the interrogation, the blacksmiths within a radius of fifty miles had also been invited, and the city gate was garrisoned, and the common people were only allowed to enter but not leave.

Of course, Qu Ping does not need to go out in person for such a trivial matter as interrogating the iron rod, and Ma Shilang of the Criminal Department is the best candidate.

A long and thin iron rod like this is rarely used in a group of jobs, and it can be seen from the surface luster on the iron rod that it was recently created, as long as the blacksmith who built it is present, you can tell it by asking.

The blacksmiths were uneasy, not knowing what the government was doing when they brought everyone together.

Master Ma showed the iron rod and said, "Don't be nervous, this mansion has recently seen such an iron rod, and I think it is very good to transform it into an arrow shaft, and I am going to build a batch of such arrows for military use." So today, let's take a look at which master is the hand, and when the time comes, I will be the leader of forging this kind of arrow! ”

Building weapons for the imperial court is a big business, and I'm afraid I won't have to worry about eating and drinking in the next life.

The blacksmiths began to feel uneasy, but gradually became a little excited.

Master Ma asked the iron rod to be sent to the blacksmiths and passed it down one by one.

"My lord, this is indeed the villain's casting two months ago!" An old blacksmith in his fifties said, holding up the iron rod.

Master Ma smiled happily and said, "Oh? Is it? Are you sure? ”

The old blacksmith did not doubt him, and honestly explained: "Don't dare to deceive the adults, this length and size are cast by the villain, and it is made of molten iron, and the mold is still retained in the workshop at home!" ”

"How many have you done?"

"The five roots are all set by the same person. Originally, such a large-cost and small-scale production must have lost money, but the man paid a lot of money, so I helped him do it. ”

Master Ma was very excited, he had made a contribution this time. Master Ma said to the old blacksmith, "Very well, the leader will make you old!" You go to the house for a while, and I'll talk to you later. ”

The old blacksmith looked back proudly at his comrades, and followed the people of the government with their heads held high. Xin said: "This time I am going to be developed!" ”

On the other side, Qu Ping sat in a sedan chair and went to Du Chong's mansion unhurriedly and unhurriedly.

Du Chong was upset today, yesterday his wife went to the temple fair to burn incense, and then he didn't come back with the two maids, and he inquired and learned that he had a quarrel with the wife of He Erhu, the richest man in Jeju, yesterday. He sent someone to He Erhu to ask for an explanation, and the other party said that Mrs. Du had long legs, where could she control her.

Du was so angry that he was so angry that he was embarrassed by a businessman, is it tolerable or unbearable? Shinong Gongshang, you are a businessman at the bottom of the ranks, and you dare to talk to me like this, Lord Du!

It's really a wrong step, a wrong step, if it weren't for the fact that Jin Bing dug the Yellow River to buy time for the emperor, there would not be today's result.

At this time, Du Chong listened to the report of Yongguo Gong's visit, and his heart was shocked, Yongguo Gong was ordered to investigate the case of the granary fire, and he visited today, could it be ......

Du Chong personally went to greet Qu Ping, Qu Ping's sedan chair had already entered the courtyard, and he was getting off the sedan chair at the moment.

Du Chong walked briskly and said: "Lord Guogong is coming to the cold house, and he is disappointed, and he hopes to atone for his sins!" "Ask for TXT

Du Chong looked behind Qu Ping, and there were hundreds of soldiers following him, panicking in his heart, could it be that the East Window incident happened?

Qu Ping got out of the sedan chair and said, "There are some things I want to ask Master Du for advice, let's talk in the house." ”

After speaking, he walked into the room.

Du Chong's palms were slightly sweating, and he calculated in his heart, what should I do, I should have run away if I knew that the East Window incident happened, who would have thought that with the help of God, I would have done it seamlessly, could it be that I still showed my feet?

Qu Ping went to the top and ordered the soldiers to take Du Chong directly.

Du Chong pretended not to know, and struggled and shouted: "My lord, my lord, what is this for?" ”

"If you don't know what to do, there are gods in your head, not to mention, you still rebel under the pretense of God's will! Today, the prince of the country not only has to hoe the court for rape, but also to eliminate the harm for God! Qu Ping said.

"My lord, why do you say that? The lower officials respect the law and abide by the law, and they have never been sorry for the court or God! Du Chong shouted.

Qu Ping said disdainfully: "Keep this kind of thing to say to the king of Hades!" To tell you the truth, your wife has confessed truthfully! ”

Du Chong's heart was cold, could it be that his wife was taken away by him. He was unwilling to commit it like this, and said, "The lower official doesn't know what the adults are talking about!" ”

"Do you want your own government to speak more clearly? You don't leave any room for leniency in confession to yourself! Okay, I'll help you out! You, Lord Du, burst the embankment of the Yellow River, harmed the people, and felt that you couldn't raise your head in the Great Song Dynasty, so you colluded with the Jin country, and were willing to be the eagle dog and lackey of the Jin people, and the buyer sought glory, secretly used tricks, burned the granary, and cut off hundreds of thousands of soldiers, horses, and grass on the front line, and the crime cannot be punished! ”

Du Chong was stunned, stared at the big eyes and shouted: "Wronged! Wronged! It's all your assumptions! ”

"Do you think you can become a lackey of the Jin people, and there will be no spies of the Great Song Dynasty in the Jin Kingdom?" Qu Ping frightened. In fact, there was no relevant news about this matter, whether it was Qin Hui or Yelu Daqi.

When Du Chong heard this, his heart was half cold again, could it be that he was accused by the traitor of the Great Song Dynasty who was planted in the Jin Kingdom?

Du Chong was not reluctant to give up, and said: "The fire burned the granary, what evidence does the adult have, saying that it was the lower official fire that burned the granary?" ”

"Hey, hey." Qu Ping smiled coldly, took out the iron rod from the person behind him, turned it back and forth in his hand, and showed off in front of Du Chong.

Du Chong looked at the familiar iron rod, his heart was half cold, but he said, "What is this?" ”

A soldier came running with two identical iron rods and reported: "My lord, two stuck iron rods were found on the wall of the well in the backyard. ”

Du Chong's face was like ashes, his heart was bad, and it was over.

Qu Ping scoffed and said, "Oh, the evidence is not completely destroyed!" Master Du, is there anything else you can quibble? ”

Du Chong lowered his head and didn't say a word, regretting it too late! What I regret is that I should have fled earlier, and if I left, I would definitely not be able to find my head, even if I found myself, I was already alive in Jinguo by that time.

It's all to blame for Yan Zongfu, who wants to bury himself a little longer, a little deeper. Now, the only way to do this is to bury it a little deeper into the ground, to the eighteenth layer of hell.

Qu Ping ordered: "Take it away!" Seal down Du Mansion! ”

In the Jeju prison, Zhang Jun heard a burst of footsteps, and heard Qu Ping say from afar: "Quick, please General Zhang come out!" ”

Zhang Jun hurried to the door to greet Qu Ping, and was overjoyed, it seemed that the prince of the country had gone out, and the result had already come to light.

"Lord Guogong, have you got a result?" Zhang Jun asked expectantly.

Qu Ping said: "Yes, but I'm afraid I have to trouble General Zhang to stay here for two days, and I need the emperor to speak." ”

"Xiaguan understands, thank you, sir!" Zhang Jun said with heartfelt gratitude.

Qu Ping ordered Du Chong to be escorted into the cell and said to Zhang Jun: "General Zhang, this is the culprit, a familiar stranger. ”

Zhang Jun looked at Du Chong and said in disbelief: "It's you!" ”

Du Chong lowered his head and didn't speak, now people are swords, I am fish and meat, and it is better to keep silent if I say more and make more mistakes.

Qu Ping said: "Du Chong, recruited from the truth, how did you design the fire granary, and what accomplices are there?" Your Majesty, I can still ask for your nine clans. ”

Du Chong himself was already an ironclad dead end, but he still had to consider the lives of his nine clan relatives, he said dejectedly: "The adults have guessed, what do you want me to say." ”

"Name all the accomplices you know! Also, the person who can stick an iron rod on the roof of the house, I'm afraid Lord Du can't do it, right? This is a big crime, and you Lord Du can't bear it alone. Qu Ping said.

Du Chong knew that the general trend was gone and his death was approaching, so he had to say one thing and replied: "My maid had an affair with Liang Shouren, the captain who guarded the granary, and I knew through Liang Shouren that General Zhang sent half of the soldiers guarding the granary to recruit new soldiers. ”

Qu Pingxin said: "You have learned and put it into practice, and you also believe in the story of storytelling." ”

"So I spent a lot of money to invite the famous flower thief on the rivers and lakes to come out. The man was so successful that I asked him to take the iron rod I had prepared three months ago and stick it in the roof of the granary. The granary house is on high ground, and the chance of successful mine guidance is greatly increased, but it is still beyond my expectation that it can succeed. Du Chong said.

"Where's the flower thief?"

"It's dead. I killed him and killed him. ”

The course of the matter was not far from what Qu Ping expected, and Qu Ping asked again: "What made you betray the Great Song Dynasty?" Just because you dug the embankment of the Yellow River, the official road was blocked, and the people scolded? ”

Admittedly, this is indeed the obvious reason. The secret reason is that Wanyan Zongfu gave me a lot of money and high-ranking officials. People, you have to be ambitious, don't you? Du Chong said gloomily.
