"Lord Liu, we just came, and you're leaving?"

Liu Yan heard the sound first, then stopped, and saw a young man and a person in official uniform walking over.

"It's hard to go." Zhang Yan whispered to Liu Yan.

This entourage dressed in official uniforms is a subordinate of Cabinet Minister Zhao Cheng, the young man is Zhao Cheng's protégé, Zhao Cheng is related to Cai Ning's family who was killed by Fan Lusheng and other "rebels", he will not let go of these rebels, and when he heard that someone reported their whereabouts, Zhao Cheng asked his subordinates and protégés to come to see, because he also knew that Liu Yan was only concerned about protecting himself and would not do his best to arrest the rebels.

When the two came in, they saw Liu Yan first, and then Zhuang Sheng, because they didn't know each other, they asked, "Is this the young master of Zhuangfu?" ”

Zhuang Sheng nodded.

This person in official uniform is called Peng Zhou, and he said humbly: "The lower officials are good at building Tanfu, and there are many disturbances, and I heard that General Zhuang is sick, so I don't dare to disturb him." ”

"Not necessarily." Zhuang Sheng said that at this time, he saw the young man next to him, who was almost his own age, with a good appearance, a good temperament, and some bookish anger, so he nodded at him.

Su Beicheng also nodded back.

"The two of you came on the orders of Lord Zhao?" Liu Yan asked.

"Exactly, why, I just heard Lord Liu say that he was leaving?" Peng Zhou said.

"It has now been ascertained that this Zheng Gongming is an addict, and in order to get a bounty, he reported that there were rebels hiding in the Zhuang Mansion, and the young master Zhuang was generous and willing to give him a sum of money, so he admitted that he fabricated the facts and blamed the Zhuang Mansion."

"Zhuang Mansion is also something he can slander?" Peng Zhou said, "According to the law, he must be sent to prison, depending on what Lord Liu means, is he spared?" ”

"Young Master Zhuang doesn't care because he knows this person."

"How can such a crime be forgiven? If he is not severely punished, he will be framed against the emperor in the future! Peng Zhou said sharply.

Zheng Gongming stared at the sunken eyes, retreated to the wall and leaned, the frightened look made his face even more distorted, he was afraid to go into the cell, he didn't want to go into the cell!

Zhuang Sheng's heart is a little empty, he is afraid that if he is in a hurry, he will regret it again, "He smoked opium, so that he was in a trance, maybe he didn't have a heart, forget it." Zhuang Sheng said.

The protégé Su Beicheng felt that something was wrong, so he said: "Young Master Zhuang, this kind of person is not worth associating, if you insist on interceding for him, it will be ......."

Zhuang Sheng frowned, glanced at Su Beicheng, glanced at Pengzhou, and finally stopped at Zheng Gongming, he didn't know what to do.

"What will happen to him for this crime?" Zhuang Sheng asked.

"Framing the General's Mansion and trying to defraud the bounty not only alarmed you and me, but also Lord Liu and Lord Zhao Cheng, he should not be spared, at least an exile." Peng Zhou said.

"No-I don't want to be exiled, I don't-" Zheng Gongming muttered with trembling lips, leaning against the wall and slowly sliding down until he sat on the ground, he still glared and kept saying, "Don't, don't exile, I didn't frame-"

Zhuang Sheng's whole body was **, and a few sweats broke out on his forehead.

And all the people heard the indistinct words, but they heard some shadows.

"Lord Yanagi!" Peng Zhou said, "Don't take it away yet!" ”

Liu Yan couldn't, so he signaled to Zhang Ying, and Zhang Yan immediately went out to transfer troops.

Su Beicheng noticed Zhuang Sheng's expression and was silent.

"No—I didn't frame—" Zheng shouted.

At this time, everyone heard clearly and was stunned.

Zhang Ying didn't move, Zhuang Sheng avoided Su Beicheng's gaze, and grabbed Yun Yun's hand beside him, Yun Yun shook his head at him.

"I didn't frame, I saw with my own eyes that man crawling in through the dog hole under their wall!" Zheng Gongming shouted in horror.

Liu Yan didn't dare to move, looking at Pengzhou, Pengzhou was also surprised, thinking that the old general Zhuang was still there, if he sent troops to search for him, it would make him lose face, if he couldn't find it, he would be embarrassed, if he didn't search, he would not do his best, and it was not easy to explain to Lord Zhao Cheng, so he looked at Su Beicheng.

Su Beicheng pondered for a moment, and said to Zhuang Sheng: "Young Master Zhuang, Cai and Liu's two ministers were killed one after another, this matter has made the city full of wind and rain, Cai and Liu's two mansions are all panicked, day and night, arresting the murderer and bringing him to justice is Cai, Liu's two families, but also an explanation to the imperial court, if you don't kill a hundred examples, let the rebels do anything wrong, I'm afraid that the ministers in the court will not be at peace day and night, although you and I are teenagers, ignorant of the world, but if you can contribute to the arrest of the criminals, it is not in vain to eat the court's subjects." ”

"What do you want me to do?"

"Open the door of convenience, let Lord Liu's people enter the mansion and search," Su Beicheng said, "We believe that your mansion is not suspected of harboring, if we find someone, we will take it away, and this matter has nothing to do with your mansion." ”

"Then you can search for it." Zhuang Sheng stood still.

Liu Yan got the order and ordered Zhang Yan to still go out and send troops in, and from time to time more than a dozen officers and soldiers came in and stood in front of the courtyard to listen to the dispatch.

"Where is General Zhuang? We didn't dare to disturb the old general Qingxiu. ”

"Buddha Hall."

Liu Yan ordered: "Except for the Buddha Hall, carefully search every place, don't make noise!" Don't destroy anything! ”

"Yes!" The officers and soldiers agreed in unison, and a dozen people divided into two teams, each through the verandahs on both sides of the hall to search.

Everyone was silent, and after a moment, the two teams replied: "No." ”

Zhuang Sheng was silent, Peng Zhou and Liu Yan felt that they had been tricked by this Zheng Gongming, and they lost face in Zhuangfu, "Take it away!" He shouted.

The two officers and soldiers went over to escort them, and Zheng Gongming retreated by the wall, kicked his legs, waved his hands, and shouted: "Don't - I didn't frame - there is still a place, there is still a place!" ”

"What do you mean?" Liu Yan asked.

"Not here, he must be in the new house!" Zheng Gongming barked like crazy.

Zhuang Sheng's heart sank, Yun Yun couldn't help but take a step back, her face turned pale, and her head buzzed, she thought that if she wasn't Miss Zhuang, if there weren't so many people here, she would definitely go and kick this Zheng Gong's name to pieces!

"What new house?"

"Zhuang Sheng bought a new house, he must have hidden that man there! I saw a carriage pass by, and it must be the Assassin in it, it must be! ”

Everyone looked at Zhuang Sheng, Zhuang Sheng looked around, everyone was watching, the general trend was coming, and he seemed powerless.

"Go search for it." He breathlessly spat out a few words.

Yun Yun pulled him and signaled not to.

"Can you still stop them?" Zhuang Sheng said that he was thinking, no wonder the Taoist chief said that someone was following him that day, but he didn't care at the time, it turned out that this Zheng Gongming had been following him.

"If you don't, you're dead." Liu Yan glared at Zheng Gongming, and scolded, "Lead the way!" ”

Zheng Gongming walked crookedly in front, Pengzhou, Su Beicheng, Liu Yan, and Zhang Ying rushed to Zhuang Sheng's new house with a group of more than a dozen people.
