Volume 4 Returning to the Past 31. You are a spy
Huang Thorn Shi came out to appease the people, saying that he would catch the crimes of the Zou and Xie families to the end and severely punish them, and the villagers' encroached land and property would also be returned, and said that this was the emperor's decree that Hou Zhou of Xinzhou came to eradicate the stubbornness and be the master of the people.
Thousands of people gathered in front of the state government station rejoiced and shouted: "Emperor Shengming, Xinzhou Hou Yingming, and Huang Daren Xianmingβ"
Zhou Xuan signaled the people to be quiet, and said loudly: "Folks, you can tell the Yamen about the evil deeds of the Zou and Xie families over the years, don't be afraid, say it, I promise you that this case will be closed before the Dragon Boat Festival, and the crimes of the Zou and Xie families will be announced one by one, and after the corrupt officials and bullies are eradicated, the villagers can happily race dragon boats and celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival!" β
After the cheers, dozens of people cried and stepped forward to accuse the Zou and Xie families of evil deeds, and Zhou Xuan immediately ordered Huang Tingshi to quickly arrange for the scribe to receive and record.
Zhou Xuan listened to it for a while, it was really angry, Zou County ordered the father and son to be hungry ghosts, not only occupying the villagers' land, but also raping the villagers' wives and daughters, and doing a lot of things that lost their conscience, and the casino of the Xie family ten tigers caused many people to die, and the strange disappearance of the gambler who would roll the dice and win eight hundred taels of silver in the Xie family casino was also revealed at this time, according to the confession of the eight bandits, they were indeed killed by the brown sugar belt in the cross ridge, and the body was buried under the bushes on the side of the road.
Many of the evil deeds of the Zou and Xie families involved the history of the Yellow Thorn, mainly because of inaction and turning a deaf ear to the people's redress of grievances, and the eight tigers of the Xie family also let go at this time, and wanted to drag the Yellow Thorn History into the water, saying that the silver given to the Yellow Thorn History every year over the years was more than 10,000 taels, and the Yellow Thorn History had at least accepted bribes of at least 60,000 or 70,000 taels of silver in the past five years-
The scribe in charge of recording carries a pen, and he doesn't know whether to remember or not?
Huang Thorn Shi was like sitting on pins and needles, peeking at Zhou Xuan's reaction.
Zhou Xuan said with a calm face: "Record truthfully." While arching his hand towards Huang Thorn Shi: "Lord Huang, take a step to speak." β
Huang Thorn Shi followed Zhou Xuan to the side hall of the Criminal Prison Division and knelt down. Wailing: "The lower official is guilty, please read the lower official's sincere repentance, and open the net." β
Zhou Xuan didn't call him up. said: "Lord Huang, it seems that you have not been implicated in the murder and bloodshed case so far, otherwise it would be difficult for me to protect you-"
Huang Thorn Shi kowtowed again and again: "Thank you, Master Hou!" Thank you, Lord Hou! β
Zhou Xuan said: "But you took tens of thousands of taels in bribes, Shangrao Yongfeng is so smoky, you really can't get away with it, I'm afraid you won't be able to do this Xinzhou assassination history!" β
"Yes, yes, yes." Yellow Thorn Shi sweated in his head.
Zhou Xuan said: "That's it, you will temporarily take this Xinzhou Assassin History, and wait for me to return to Beijing to review His Majesty, with his subordinates, Zhongshu, and officials, and see what the final result is?" β
Yellow Thorn Shi was shocked. pleaded: "Master Hou, as soon as this matter arrives in Beijing, the criminal official will definitely be unable to escape the death penalty, the family has no nationality, and the wife and daughter are slaves, which is unspeakably miserable, please save me!" β
Zhou Xuan groaned. said: "Lord Huang, I know that you are truly repentant, so I will give you a chance, hand over the 50,000 taels of bribes you received within three days, write two resignation letters and submit them to the Zhaowu Protectorate and the Ministry of Officials respectively, resign that you are in poor health, and want to return to your hometown, and in addition, cooperate with Judge Fan to review the cases of Zou and Xie Da clearly,"
Huang Thorn Shi was both ashamed and regretful. said in a loud voice: "Thank you for your kindness, the lower officials will definitely do what Hou Ye wants." β
Although Huang Thorn Shi lost his official position, and he had to pay 50,000 taels of silver, but he finally survived this catastrophe, resignation and dismissal for crime are very different, after resigning, there is still a court every year, and he is still a famous squire when he returns to his hometown, if he is dismissed, his reputation will be bad, and this reputation is very important!
Therefore, Huang Tingshi is still grateful to Zhou Xuan. Immediately after the saddle of the horse, he worked hard to thoroughly investigate the cases of Zou and Xie, and arrested the three sons of Zou County, one of whom was still recuperating from his broken leg and injuries, as well as the lackeys and accomplices of the Xie family, who were more angry among the people, and arrested 43 criminals on 2 May, and closed down more than 10 casinos in the county. The assets of the Zou and Xie families were all seized. Waiting to be processed.
That night, there was a heavy rain in Shangrao County, and the people of Shinshu said that it was a good rain. Wash away the dirt, and return to Rao Yongfeng Lang Kun.
It was already night when Zhou Xuan, the three idiots, and Laifu returned to the state government room, and Lin Ning greeted him and whispered: "Master, just now Xiahou Tassel went out of the state government alone to go to Pingkangfang, the land of fireworksββ"
Zhou Xuan smiled and asked, "Are you back?" β
Lin Ning said: "After entering a green building, half a tea time will come out, can the owner know the name of the green building?" β
Zhou Xuan glanced at the three idiots and said with a smile: "I am as clean as the third child, and the most unfamiliar is the Qinglou." β
Lin Ning glanced at the three idiots and said, "Master, don't laugh, the green building that Xiahou tasseled into is called Mingyu Building?" β
"Mingyulou?" Zhou Xuan was a little surprised, Xiahou Tassel was the famous prostitute of Xuanzhou's "Mingyulou", but he didn't expect that Xinzhou also had "Mingyulou", and asked: "What else did the third sister-in-law hear?" β
Lin Ning smiled and said: "I didn't go into Mingyulou, but just now I heard the conversation between Xiahou Tassel and her maidservant, Xiahou Tassel is in a hurry to seduce the master, but the master has been busy for the past two days." β
Zhou Xuan smiled: "It seems that I have to give her a chance, this woman is really stupid, and I have to create a chance for her, alas, it's annoying!" β
The three idiots said: "There are Mingyu Towers in all states and counties of the Tang Kingdom, which should be the eyes and ears of the Qingyuan people, and they are manipulated by the prince of Lianchang behind the scenes-"
Lin Ning raised his eyebrows and asked, "Third brother, how do you know so clearly, you know that there are Ming Yulou in all states and counties of the Tang Kingdom?" β
The three idiots hurriedly explained: "I have traveled all over the world and have seen a lot." β
"Just to see the girl in Mingyu Building?" Lin Ning vinegar is strong.
Zhou Xuan saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "The third child is practicing children's skills, if it weren't for the third sister-in-law, the third child would be ready to guard himself like a jade for a lifetimeββ"
Zhou Xuan thought that he was very sensual, but he didn't expect the three idiots to be even more sensual, and said: "The master is right, since I saw A-Ning, I can't help myself-"
Zhou Xuan couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly let the virtuous couple into the room, spoke softly, and hid in the quilt to speak.
It was late at night. The lights were still on in the Lin sisters' room, and Zhou Xuan couldn't sleep until he didn't report to work, so Zhou Xuan went to have a conversation. Fairy Jingyi asked, "Brother Xuan, when are we going to leave for Jiangzhou?" β
Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "Sister Daoyun is homesick? I'm also homesick, after the Dragon Boat Festival, we set off, through Hongzhou and then to Jiangzhou, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should still be in Hongzhou, always have to see it, counting all the delays, we will definitely be able to rush to Jiangzhou before May 20, Lin Duo's marriage date is not May 28. It's in time. β
The Jing family fairy let out an "um".
Lin Hanyun said: "My sister is saying that you have to deal with the Zou and Xie cases again, and you have to rebuild the Tea God Temple, 6 Yuquan, and a lot of things in Xinzhou, how can you get out of it after three days?" β
Zhou Xuan smiled: "Do you want me to bow down to everything?" Wouldn't that exhaust me as a scholar of Zhou! I will arrange people to do those things, rest assured, I will definitely leave after the Dragon Boat Festival, if it doesn't rain tomorrow. Let's go dragon boat playing. β
Lin Hanyun was happy and said, "Then I'm going to go to sleep quickly, and when I wake up, it's tomorrow." β
Zhou Xuan and Fairy Jingyi both laughed.
Zhou Xuan said goodnight to the Lin sisters, and went to the bathroom to take a bath, cumin yawned and waited on the side, after the bath, cumin also had to wash Zhou Xuan's clothes, Zhou Xuan said: "Cumin, it's three shifts in the middle of the night, wash it tomorrow." β
The little girl said, "Today's business is done today." It's safe to fall asleep - Uncle, this is what Miss Que'er said. So saying, he took the basin and went to the patio on the left, where there was a well with bluestone slabs for washing clothes.
Zhou Xuan had just taken a bath, refreshed, and couldn't sleep when he returned to the room, so he followed her to the well while talking to cumin.
The rain continued to rain, and the water in the well was about to overflow. The four lanterns under the eaves shone brightly, and the water in the well was knocked out by the raindrops, and then the blisters swirled and extinguished.
Zhou Xuan braved the rain to help cumin carry a large bucket of water from the well, jumped back to the eaves quickly, and laughed.
Cumin scrubbing clothes. While turning his head to look at Zhou Xuan. Brainlessly, he said, "Uncle, you are so good!" β
Zhou Xuanxin said: "The little girl shouldn't like me." Do you want to guard and steal? Dude isn't such a casual person. Say: "So-so, not too good." β
Cumin asked, "Uncle, do you think Miss Que'er doesn't want to?" And Miss Needle? β
"Yes." Zhou Xuan said: "I will be able to see them in more than ten days, I am really looking forward to it." β
Cumin said "um" and said, "Cumin was worried that my uncle would have a sheep Xiaofeng, Miss Lin Er, and what princess land, and my uncle would change his mindββ"
Zhou Xuan hurriedly said: "Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense, cumin, Yang Xiaofeng is okay, but what does it have to do with Miss Lin Er and Princess Qingle?" β
Cumin showed a smile of "I know everything" and said, "Uncle, you and Miss Lin Er kissed cumin in the carriage, but you saw it with your own eyesββ"
"Ahh Zhou Xuan hurriedly held on to the pillar, afraid that he would fall, his face was hot, and he still hadn't practiced kung fu at home.
Cumin continued: "So, Miss Lin Er must marry your uncle, Miss Lin Er said that if she doesn't marry or don't marry, she will definitely marry in the end, and the princess-"
The cumin was too sharp, and Zhou Xuan couldn't quibble about Lin Hanyun, but when it came to the princess, he was bold and asked, "What's wrong with the princess, what do you see?" β
Cumin's next sentence made Zhou Xuan a little angry, only to hear this little girl cover her mouth with her wrist and "coo" and laugh: "Cumin, I saw my uncle painting a naked painting for the princess." β
"Ahh
Zhou Xuan's words were incoherent, and he really fulfilled that sentence - if people don't know, unless they don't do it, he only painted it once for Princess Qingle in "Dream Xiaozhu", how did this little girl see it? God, it's a pity that this girl doesn't be a spy, where can Xiahou tassel compare to her!
Zhou Xuan didn't expect that Xiahou Tassel was outside the side hall, listening to the gossip of his master and maid, Miss Lin Er and Zhou Xuan fooling around in the carriage Xiahou Tassel knew the place, otherwise she would be too incompetent, but she never expected that Zhou Xuan would have an affair with the princess of Tang Kingdom, is this a useful top-secret news? Do you want to report to Lian Chang's son? I don't know what's going on, Xiahou Tassel is very uncomfortable.
Cumin "Gege" smiled: "Cumin is not a spy, Cumin just happened to bump into it, my uncle is a little bit of a mess, but Cumin is very relieved now, although my uncle has become a big official and has seen a more beautiful beauty than Miss Que'er, but my uncle will not change his mindββ"
Zhou Xuan asked angrily and funny: "How can you see it?" β
Cumin said: "Uncle will carry water for cumin, in the old house of Jiulianfang, my uncle also used to carry water for cumin, so my uncle has not changed, and he will not change his mind." β
"Oh, I see!" Zhou Xuanxin said: "You girls are really good at seeing the big from the small, you can recognize a person from a bucket of water, I'm just handy, hehe, in the Tang Kingdom, marry a few more wives and don't break the law, why should I change my mind?" He said, "Of course, Uncle Ben's character is hard and time-tested-" Suddenly he heard a "pop" outside, something touched the wall, and he turned around and asked, "Who is it?" β
Someone responded: "Childe, it's me, tassel." β
Another voice said, "Childe, and me, Yu'er." β
Xiahou tassel and maid walked in, Xiahou tassel held an umbrella, and the little maid fish carried a wooden basin on the side, they also came to join in the fun, the laundry came, and when they went out, there was no laundry maid, they had to wash it themselves, but it was obvious that they had ulterior motives to wash it at this time.
Zhou Xuan said: "Okay, I'll help you carry water." "It rained down to the patio again, and used a wooden barrel to pull the water from the well, but the rain was suddenly cut off, and an oil-paper umbrella was propped up above his head.
Zhou Xuan looked back, Xiahou's tasseled eyelashes were slightly fanning like a small fan, his eyes were as bright as water, his snow-white sweet potato seed face was like an ice carving under the light of the lantern, and his right arm held an umbrella, highlighting the beautiful curve of his chest.
For the sake of Xiahou tassels, Xiaodao racked his brains, and today he has less yards, forgive me.
