When the people present heard this shout, they were all surprised, only Ji Qingwen and Li Yan, who knew about it, could still keep their composure.

I only heard Li Yan say: "It seems that Miss Xiuying is still capable of doing things, but I don't know if she has harmed the innocent." ”

Although Zhou Xiuying didn't hear the words of Li Yuanyin questioning his character, she also knew that most of the people around Ji Qingwen had some prejudices against her, so she said: "It seems that Mr. Li still can't believe me...... I don't care if it hurts the innocent, it's better to let this meat ticket say it yourself. ”

Saying that, Zhou Xiuying used a very chic and elegant technique to pull out a dagger from her waist, cut the pocket, and scolded: "Hurry up, the son has something to ask you." ”

Only then did everyone realize that what Zhou Xiuying was carrying was actually a big living person! I saw that this man was about forty years old, with a scruffy beard on his face, and a pair of eyes dripping and rolling in his sockets.

However, this person suddenly changed, obviously not reacting, looked at everyone with a confused face, and asked, "You...... Who are you? What are you doing with me? ”

Ji Qingwen smiled: "Who are we, you don't deserve to ask." I would like to ask you, who are you? ”

The man coughed lightly and said, "Looking at your appearance, it seems that you are also from the rivers and lakes, right?" Have you ever heard of Kang Yidao's name? ”

"Kang Yidao? Are you Kang Yidao? Li Yuanyin exclaimed.

"There's actually a person who knows the goods. Since you know that Uncle I am Kang Yidao, why don't you let me go quickly? Uncle, for the sake of your polite words, I will spare you from death! Although Kang Yidao said this in a big tone, he lacked confidence after all, and he was inevitably a little strong outsider.

Ji Qingwen didn't pay attention to this word called "Kang Yidao", and asked Li Yuanyin: "What? Does Commander Li know about this guy too? ”

Li Yuanyin frowned and said, "Of course I know." This Kang Yi is a famous Jiangyang thief on the rivers and lakes, the Criminal Department, Jinyiwei, and Dongchang issued a sea fishing document to catch him for several years, but he didn't expect to see this guy here today. ”

Zhou Xiuying teased: "So the imperial court eagle dogs are useless waste. This Kang hid in the capital with a knife, eating fragrant and spicy food, and several restaurants, restaurants, and green buildings all offered him as an uncle, didn't you even notice it? What a rubbish! ”

Li Yuanyin's face turned red, and he said in amazement: "I didn't expect this guy to be so bold, he didn't hide in the deep mountains and old forests, but actually hid under the noses of the center of the court and the factory guards...... Alas, Kang Yidao is extremely vicious and insatiable, and for the sake of a few taels of silver, he even dares to rob the silver of the imperial court for disaster relief...... In any case, Miss Xiuying can catch this guy today, which can be regarded as getting rid of a rat for the people. The last general is here to salute Miss Xiuying. ”

As he spoke, Li Yuanyin took a deep look at Zhou Xiuying.

Zhou Xiuying saw that he spoke very sincerely, but it was not good to continue to be sarcastic, so she quickly put away the dagger and returned the salute.

Ji Qingwen and the others talked lively, but Kang Yidao over there was unhappy and scolded: "Have you finished talking?" Don't let me go, uncle! Uncle, my brothers are not a hundred but seventy or eighty, be careful when they knock on the door, so that you can't eat and go around! ”

Ji Qingwen smiled and said, "A knife, can you hold your chin when you speak?" Don't scare me with such a loud tone. Actually, I invited you over today, and I didn't have anything else to do, but I just wanted to ask you to borrow something. ”

"Borrowing something? Nonsense, you're clearly black eating black! I actually ate it on my head. Kang opened his mouth and said, but he looked around and saw that he was surrounded by everyone, and if he said anything nonsense, he would be cut into pulp, so he could only find a step for himself, "Forget it, uncle, I'm in a good mood today, don't say anything to borrow or not, what do you want, just tell me, uncle will never bargain, I will reward you." ”

"Good! Although you Kang Yidao is a bad person, you are a rotten person, and you are quite cheerful when you speak. Ji Qingwen said, "There is gold and silver, but there is a lack of this head on your shoulder, so you can lend me the head and use it well!" ”

Kang Yidao was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Borrow your head?" You...... Who the hell are you? ”

Ji Qingwen sneered: "Hmph! Who am I, you don't deserve to ask! ”

After that, he instructed Huang Degong again: "What are you still doing in a daze?" When is it, don't you change your clothes yet! ”

"Changing clothes? I don't change clothes! Kang shouted angrily, suddenly burst out, raised his hand and hit Huang Degong, who was holding a red brocade robe in his hand, and a fist the size of a bowl smashed firmly on Huang Degong's chest.

Although this Kang Yidao was a little injured when he was caught by Zhou Xiuying, he was also a famous player in the rivers and lakes after all, and this punch did not hurt Huang Degong, but it also made him very painful.

Since Huang Degong followed Ji Qingwen, when he had suffered such a loss, he was immediately aroused by his temper, shook the red robe in his hand, stretched out a fist that was bigger and more ruthless than Kang Yidao, and hit Kang Yidao's head, chest, and shoulders like a storm.

How could Kang Yidao withstand such an attack by Huang Degong, he was beaten in an instant, his nose was blue and his eyes were swollen, and he gasped and asked, "...... What kind of punch are you? How can anyone beat like you? No moves at all! ”

Huang Degong's movements did not delay for half a minute, but he said in his mouth: "What kind of fist?" King Eight Punches! What can knock you down is a good punch! ”

As he spoke, there was another attack, slashing his head and covering his face at Kang.

There is a saying that "one force will drop ten times", Huang Degong's strength far exceeds Kang Yidao, and Kang Yidao's moves cannot suppress Huang Degong. Therefore, it only took a moment's effort, and Kang was beaten with a knife and couldn't hold his breath and fell to the ground.

Ji Qingwen was taken aback when he saw this, and hurriedly reprimanded: "Huang Degong, what are you doing?" If you beat someone to death, will you catch another one? Don't stop yet! ”

Huang Degong stopped his fist at this time, and scolded in his mouth: "This guy has a big breath and little strength, and he fell down before I used much strength." ”

Zhou Xiuying leaned down, probed Kang's snort, and said, "Don't worry, Son, this guy is strong and healthy, and he can't die after being beaten twice." ”

Ji Qingwen breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay to beat him stupid or injured, you can't beat him to death, I'm still useful!" Quick, take advantage of his honesty at this time, and change his clothes quickly. ”

These rough men under Ji Qingwen stripped Kang Yidao's clothes naked with all hands and feet, and changed into a red brocade robe that had been prepared a long time ago. This brocade robe is exactly the same as the one that Ji Qingwen gave to Yuan Chonghuan just now, plus Kang Yidao's appearance and size are similar to Yuan Chonghuan, and after a slight modification of his face, he is exactly the same as the Ji Liao Supervisor who has become a prisoner of the order.

Ji Qingwen was happy to see this, and said: "Miss Xiuying's work is really reliable, this living treasure is really similar to Yuan Chonghuan, and you can't see the difference at all after a dozen steps!" It's a pity that this person is a troublemaker, and he must not be cut down obediently, and if he is called out on the spot on the execution ground, it will not be good......"

Zhou Xiuying glanced at her eyes and complained: "Didn't the son tell me not to hurt the innocent?" But among those damn robbers, only this guy looks like Yuan Chonghuan, and I can't help it in a hurry. But it's easy for Childe to keep him from talking, so you can see it. ”

As she spoke, Zhou Xiuying pulled out the dagger on her waist again, squatted down and groped around Kang Yidao's neck for a while, and suddenly raised the knife in her hand, inserted the blade of the dagger into Kang Yidao's throat by an inch long, and then withdrew her hand and pulled it out, but she didn't let Kang Yidao shed a drop of blood.

Kang woke up in pain, and was about to open his mouth to scold, but only saliva accompanied by red blood spurted out of his mouth, and he couldn't spit out half a word, and he couldn't stop shouting.

Zhou Xiuying raised her hand and slapped her, scolded "annoyed to death", and then knocked Kang unconscious again, and then said to Ji Qingwen: "Son, this guy's throat was damaged by me, so naturally he can't speak, but he won't be able to eat in the future, I'm afraid he will almost die in the next three or two days." ”

"Okay! Miss Xiuying is really good, three or two days, enough, one day is enough. ”

Saying that, Ji Qingwen straightened up and said loudly: "Brothers, there is still one last step left, we can't relax, work harder, after the deed is done, Lao Tzu will be rewarded!" ”

Busy all night.

The next day, it was time for Yuan Chonghuan to open the knife and behead.

The day before, Ji Qingwen sent Duojiu Gong to charter a restaurant next to the entrance of the vegetable market, and with a tired face, he drank tea and talked with a group of cronies on the restaurant.

In addition to the guards of the Criminal Department and the Shuntian Mansion, there are dozens of officers and soldiers of the Jinyi Guard, dressed in flying fish suits and wearing embroidered spring knives at their waists, standing majestically on duty, and there is a sense of not being angry and arrogant.

Therefore, with the escort of these brocade guards, countless people who were ready to watch the excitement did not dare to make a mistake, but only stood far away to watch the excitement, and none of them dared to rush forward.

When the drum tower in the capital sounded the drum beat at noon, the trumpets on the execution platform rang out in unison, and immediately a loud official of the criminal department shouted: "In the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, the scholar of the criminal department and the scholar of Dongge University have arrived!" ”

With this shout, Wen Tiren walked out from behind the curtain with a square step and a red face, and sat on the chair on the torture table.

Yuan Chonghuan's case was provoked by Wen Tiren, although he experienced many twists and turns, Yuan Chonghuan was sentenced by the emperor as he wished. Therefore, Yuan Chonghuan's death was actually announced to the hundred officials of the imperial court - such a big matter in the imperial court, in the end, we still have to listen to Wen Tiren, the second assistant of my cabinet, although Zhou Yanru became the first auxiliary minister, but the emperor did not listen to him, sooner or later he will be ousted by my Wen Tiren!

Therefore, although Yuan Chonghuan died a little confused, the benefits outweighed the disadvantages for Wen Tiren, and he came here today to test his victory!

I saw Wen Tiren raise the shocking wood on the table, slap it hard, and then said: "Bring someone to commit a crime, Yuan Chonghuan!" ”

As soon as the words fell, an official of the Criminal Department escorted "Yuan Chonghuan" to the execution platform, but saw that this "Yuan Inspector" was full of gloom, bleeding from the corners of his mouth, and looked like a dying person, but he was wearing a red burqa, and he looked a little out of place.

Ji Qingwen, who was sitting on the top of the restaurant, knew the inside story best, and when he saw "Yuan Chonghuan" being escorted to the high platform, he also shook his spirits and said to the left and right: "Okay, it's my turn to appear." Don't show your appearance when you verify your identity, 'falling short' is not a good word. ”

Saying that, Ji Qingwen, accompanied by the guards of Li Yuanyin, Zhou Xiuying, and Huang Degong, came to the front of the prison beheading platform, and said to Wen Tiren: "Lord Wen, I have a reluctant request, and I ask your Excellency to fulfill it." ”
