Chapter 787: The Turning Point Begins
Liu Si asked. Although everyone understands. Under this occasion. He had to say so; Although everyone understands. Liu Si, who said these words, asked. It doesn't mean that's what he thinks in his heart. But even so. Hear him say that. The people present still felt uncomfortable in their hearts. And this mood is released. Went to the face. It's just a look of resentment. It's upsetting to watch.
However, Liu Siwen is not an inappropriate person. Even he hated it. But he also understood. This is not the time to be impressed. At the moment, let's find a way to solve this matter.
Come to think of it. Liu Siwen said, "Again." Differing opinions. In this way. But there's no way to figure out what's going on. ”
"Eun Gong. Why do you speak like that? "One of the kneeling people below. Speak. "This letter was indeed written by you. The little ones don't read much. What handwriting is not handwriting. Unrecognizable. But this letter is the same as the ones written by Eun Gong in the past. Especially the last one. It's exactly the same. It's something that only Eun Gong would use. You can't go wrong. ”
"First things first. Don't call me 'Engong' anymore. I've never met you before. Zhang Siwen looked at the man. Said very calmly. "Second. I haven't written this letter either. I'll have to tell you. That mark is really nuanced. Both in terms of strokes and logos. It's really easy to understand at a glance. It's about me. Even I see it that way. But. I've never used this marker. Let's talk about it. This is mine. ”
But Engong ...... "The man was obviously not giving up. Even Zhang Siwei spoke like this. He was indeed still struggling to say something.
"Hmm. This is indeed a problem. Liu Siwen spoke. The eight men took out such a letter. It was written by Mr. Zhang. And they are also insistent. I want to ask something different. But it's difficult. Unfortunately. And that's just what they're talking about. That alone does not mean that this is the case.
"And Lord Zhang's side. It is also said that he did not write this letter. But all the same. It's still empty rhetoric. Since it is a case. Then be fair. I can't say I don't believe the words of these eight people. But you have to believe what the ministers of the court say. Merely. And so it goes. It's hard to decide. ”
"Lord Liu. There's nothing wrong with that. Feng Bao was on the side. Said with a sneer. "Even if it's a letter written with the left hand. And most of the things that are written out are similar. But it is not absolute. It doesn't matter who is left-handed or right-handed. There must be some differences. We. Why don't you ask Lord Zhang to use his left hand on the spot. Write along with the letter. Isn't that just a glance at that? ”
"My father-in-law is right. However, it can't be used here. Liu Siwen said. Seeing that Feng Bao looked anxious and about to speak again. He hurriedly said. "Father-in-law, don't panic. The official's opposition to this matter is not unfounded. Everyone present understands. This handwritten thing. It is extremely difficult to fake. It's okay to draw. But there are too many flaws in the words. A discerning person can tell the truth at a glance. ”
"That being the case. I don't know why Lord Liu still opposes it. Feng Bao looked very unhappy. Since it is not easy to imitate. That's right. Just ask Master Zhang to write it again. If not. That's how these people framed Master Zhang. If it's right. I don't think we need to say anything more. ”
"It's exactly as my father-in-law said." Liu Siwen said. Then the conversation changed. "But there is one more thing that the official knows. This is written out with the left hand. But it is very easy to fake. Just add a little bit of the man's pen. There is no difference at all. Even if it's someone who has practiced with his left hand. But it's the same. ”
I came up with it myself. can get Zhang Siwei's method at once. Now it's dead. Feng Bao's face was even more ugly: "Then what does Lord Liu mean?" Since there is no basis for empty words. Then it is natural to do it and see how it is true or false. And Lord Liu obstructed it in so many ways. Whether this case will be tried or not. Isn't it. Lord Liu misses the feelings of colleagues with Zhang Siwei. Deliberate delay in the trial. I can't do it if I want to show favoritism. ”
"Father-in-law, don't be angry." Liu Siwen hurriedly said. "Not bad. I am a colleague of Mr. Zhang. Although there is not much intersection on weekdays. But in general. I'm pretty good with Master Zhang. But. A case is a case. There is a way for the prince to break the law. The same sin as the common people. These words were not only said by Gongsun Ying (i.e. Shang Ying) back then. There are examples in this dynasty. If it is finally ascertained. This matter is indeed the case of Lord Zhang. This official will never care about personal feelings. Perverting the law for personal gain. But at the moment. Nothing is a foregone conclusion. If you act rashly. I'm afraid it's going to be a big mistake. ”
"That's according to Lord Liu's meaning. What to do with this case. You can't just put it off. Feng Bao saw Liu Si ask this. It is also impossible to answer. I had to make a compromise.
"Nope. Actually, there's another way. Liu Siwen said with a smile. Although it is not known who wrote this letter. But Zhang Siwei is the most suspicious. Naturally, we have to start with him. ”
"But. It's just our proposal. were all vetoed by Lord Liu. Liu Si asked. Even Feng Bao was puzzled. "I don't know what Lord Liu plans to do."
"Actually, it's very simple." Liu Siwen said. "Actually. Until yesterday. When Lord Zhang returned to the capital. The official also thought that the Criminal Department was going to Shanxi to investigate the file. It's kind of figuring out what is going on in this matter.
"But. When the official has read the file of the Criminal Department. There has always been a question in my mind. If this is the case. If it's really Zhang Siwei manipulating behind his back. So how did he get the letter to these eight people?
"At the time. Zhang Siwei is in Shanxi. This is now a certainty. Don't think otherwise. But that's it. It's really weird. From Zhang Siwei's hometown to the capital. Even if it's an urgent report from the imperial court. It also takes half a day. Let alone. If that's the case. It must be eye-catching. The speed of the message is even slower. And. And that's not all. Zhang Siwei was not in his home at the time. Rather, in the military camp of Wang Chonggu, the governor of Shanxi. He drilled with the barracks. That's it. It's even more puzzling. What method did Zhang Siwei use? The letter was delivered from Shanxi to the capital in half a day. ”
Liu Si asked. The atmosphere present has changed a lot. Not bad. This is indeed a place to ponder. Don't care what's going on. If you think about it just from the perspective of time. Zhang Siwei is also not enough. And so it goes. A lot of people see hope.
"Isn't that simple?" But. Feng Bao didn't find this question tricky. Said very easily. "Not bad. Just as Lord Liu said. If you ask someone to deliver a letter. And not too conspicuous. It would take a whole day to do that, no matter what. But. Could it be that Lord Liu forgot. Flying Pigeon Biography. ”
This question was something Feng Bao had already thought about. As a matter of fact. Flying pigeons pass on such things. Someone has been doing it for a long time. This land is no exception. Although I don't know exactly when it started. But from the records that people can find. It is quite obvious to see. When the Sui and Tang dynasties were plagued. Someone did.
Today. This method has been widely used for a long time. The biggest advantage is: The speed at which messages are delivered. And it's also very convenient. Deliver messages anytime, anywhere. Especially in the military. This is definitely a "tool" that can greatly improve the efficiency of military intelligence transmission. In the Ming Dynasty, there were many domesticated pigeons used here. And it's not a forbidden thing. It is not an offence for individuals to keep carrier pigeons.
If it is said. Zhang Siwei used this way to convey the words of this letter. That's not to say a day. I can't use it for half a day. And the letter came.
"Not bad. My father-in-law's words are also reasonable. Liu Siwen said. Merely. Where did Zhang Siwei get the news in the first place? This time Henan, Nanzhili and Shandong. Flooding occurred in all three places at the same time. And Shandong is a day late. But it was the day after the flood. It was only half a day for the people to arrive in the capital. And that's what happened. There were no floods in Shanxi. In addition, Zhang Siwei was still in the army at that time. There is no way to know these messages at all.
"It's hard to say. It's these eight people who use the same method. Flying Pigeon Biography. Tell Zhang Siwei about it. After that, Zhang Siwei came up with such an idea, but it couldn't be done. ”
"Our family thinks so, too." Feng Bao had a calm face. replied. "This thing. Now there is only one explanation. ”
"Hmm. That makes sense. Liu Siwen said. Thank you father-in-law for solving my doubts. ”
And Liu Si asked this. The following people have already felt that they have seen hope. But it was shriveled up again.
Things seem to have reached an impasse again.
"Your Excellency. I'm suspicious. But there's something I want to say. "This time. Zhang Siwei spoke.
"Nope. Master Zhang doesn't have to be like this. There is nothing to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it. Liu Siwen looked indifferent. Said very politely.
This made Feng Bao on the side. Not to mention how unhappy I am. But this time. He did not say anything about it. Instead, I watched it. He wanted to see it. Can Zhang Siwei spit lotus flowers in his mouth. Say something.
"Actually. There is one thing to say. It's a bit hard to talk about. So the people sent by the Criminal Department before. I didn't know about it. Zhang Siwei said. But now it's over. It won't help to hide it anymore. ”
"Please also tell me about it. What the hell is going on. Liu Siwen said.
It's not just Liu Si who asks. The interest of everyone present was aroused.
"Something that can prove his innocence." Zhang Siwei said.
