Yang Gongzi, who was still very arrogant, knew that the singles would not suffer immediate losses, so he no longer continued to plead, so he arrested them all into the yamen of Shangyuan County, leaving some of the servants to take care of Qian Zhuang.

The news of Yang Ji's accident soon reached Tie Niu's ears, and he immediately sent a group of scoundrels to snatch the arrested people back, Zhu Hui, Song He and Shi Shiyong joined forces to beat them to the ground.

Tie Niu ran to report to Huang Bingwen and found that there were many officials of the governor's yamen, because Hai Rui had been arresting him, he did not dare to act rashly, and sent a scoundrel to break in, but he was blocked by the officials, so he had to go to Chen Qianhu for help.

Chen Qianhu didn't want to blindly participate in the cooperation, and let the iron ox grind alive, they resolutely refused to step into Xingji half a step.

At this moment, Huang Bingwen and the others were sweating profusely, and the books they had checked were piled up like a hill, and they still couldn't find those manuscripts.

"Something happened to Yang Ji Qianzhuang......"

"Shangyuan County copied Yang Ji Qianzhuang......"

"Yang Gongzi was arrested by them and put into the county yamen......"

……

The shouting alarmed Huang Bingwen, seeing that there were still half of the books that had not been checked, Hai Rui and Pang Shangpeng seemed to be sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai and fell asleep on the chair, at this time, I suddenly remembered that Yang Gongzi had said that Pang Shangpeng invited Qian Zhuang to have dinner with him tonight, and after the meal, he even came to this study, could it be that those forbidden books were borrowed by this bastard?

At this time, the Dongchang Fan was still inspecting one by one, Huang Bingwen realized that he might cause trouble, and continued to look for it, it was impossible to gain anything, so he hurried to Shangyuan County Yamen to see what was going on?

Thinking of this, Huang Bingwen slapped his head and laughed loudly.

"Lord Hai, I heard the shouts outside, and I knew in my heart that those forbidden things had been transferred to Yang Ji Qianzhuang, fortunately, I had already taken precautions, and at the same time of checking Xingji, I reported the case to the Shangyuan County Yamen, and now the Shangyuan County Order has launched an operation, and has found evidence of the misdeeds of the Qian Zhuang peers, take this huge shopkeeper, let's go to the county Yamen, and have a three-hall trial tonight."

Hearing this, the Shangyuan County Order was invited by him Huang Bingwen, Hai Rui was extremely angry, stood up and slapped the desk, and shouted: "It's really nothing to do, bold and reckless!" ”

In front of the upright Hai Rui, Huang Bingwen didn't dare to make a mistake, and Huang Jin repeatedly told him not to directly clash with Hai Rui, I thought that this time I was completely sure, but I didn't expect it to be self-defeating.

"The humble position has caused trouble to Lord Hai, since Shangyuan County has caught evidence of disobedience, it is better to invite the Lord to go."

Hai Rui looked extremely angry, and was afraid of the case again.

"Pang Zhang's shopkeeper Sanjia Jinshi was born, he is a disciple of the Confucian sage, the former dynasty Sanpin Dali Temple, he is upright, although he lost his official position, he is still serving the imperial court, what evidence do you have to say that he is disobedient? Let's just say it now. ”

All the officers of the East Factory stopped the inspection and shouted in unison: "Foreign officials are not allowed to interfere in the handling of the case in the East Factory!" ”

In the face of these minions, Hai Rui was too lazy to deal with them, and knew that fighting with them would not lead to anything, so he turned around and came to the door of the study.

"Yang Zhuku, please take the shopkeeper Pang away, and the rest of the people will all withdraw, leaving the guards to guard and block Xingji Qianzhuang."

Huang Bingwen followed behind Hai Rui and said with a smile: "Lord Hai, I humbly respect you for me to the white jade pillar of the sky, the purple and golden beam of the sea, the blue sky lord in the hearts of the people." Jinling made a big case of disobedience, it was really a freezing three feet not a day's cold, it was the result of the traitor Cai Dezhong's connivance, for the future of Hai Daren, he was willing to accompany him, and he closed this case tonight, so as not to have a long night and a long dream, and set himself on fire, I don't know what Hai Daren wants? ”

"That's what the governor has in mind!"

"That's good! This case was initiated by Dongchang, therefore, Pang Shangpeng should be handed over to us to take away, please don't mind. ”

Hai Rui suddenly found that the Dongchang Fan was eager to try and wanted to snatch Pang Shangpeng away, and immediately stopped him in front of him.

Huang Bingwen knew that Hai Rui was really not afraid of death, not only dared to impeach the emperor, but also angrily beheaded the prison army in Qixia Temple, so he gave up arresting Pang Shangpeng.

As soon as he got out of the bank, Huang Bingwen hurriedly went to find Chen Qianhu and asked, "What happened to Yang Ji Qianzhuang?" ”

"Lord Huang, I just heard about it."

"Who left here just now?"

Chen Qianhu thought about it carefully and replied casually: "It seems that the head of the governor's yamen has left." ”

When Huang Bingwen heard this, his heart was shocked, and he asked in surprise: "Why didn't you stop him?" ”

"He was ordered by Hai Rui to go back to the yamen to do business, how can I stop him?"

So, Huang Bingwen was furious and scolded: "It's really damn hateful, Pang Shangpeng's evidence of disobedience was all brought to Yang Ji Qianzhuang by this kid, Chen Qianhu, give you a chance to atone for your crimes, quickly take your people and horses, go to Yang Ji Qianzhuang, and drive out all the servants in Shangyuan County." ”

Chen Qianhu, who didn't want to wade into troubled waters again, didn't want to offend Huang Bingwen, besides, this errand was easy to do, and there was even oil and water to fish, so he immediately agreed.

Chen Qianhu led the Jinyi Guard to leave quietly, the Iron Bull and the Rogue were useless, and they all withdrew one after another, and calm was restored to the West Street of Chaotian Palace.

At this moment, the inside and outside of the yamen of Shangyuan County are brightly lit, the county commander sits on the top of the public hall, Zhu Hui stands on the left, Shi Shiyong stands on the right, dozens of officials are in the two compartments, and the men and maids of Li Ledger and Yang Ji Qianzhuang all kneel down in front of the hall......

Yang Gongzi stood up and did not kneel, and the Shangyuan County Order was not reluctant, holding his beard, carefully reading the manuscript in his hand, sometimes smiling, sometimes shaking his head and sighing, and was not in a hurry to try the case.

At this moment, there was silence in the court. In Li Shufang's heart, like fifteen buckets of water, seven up and eight down, he found that the manuscript in the hand of the county official was somewhat similar to the one in Pang Shangpeng's study, and he couldn't figure out what he couldn't figure out just now, and suddenly had an answer, and he was suddenly trembling with fright, and he punched Yang Gongzi's knee joints twice.

Yang Gongzi was tired of standing and wanted to sit down and rest for a while, but he was afraid of losing his identity, so he suddenly received two punches, his legs were weak, and he knelt down involuntarily.

"You dog minion, why did you beat me?"

Li Ledger knelt down and climbed two steps, leaned in his ear and asked, "Big Shopkeeper, have you been to Xingji Money Village tonight?" ”

With a face full of disdain, Yang Gongzi scolded: "Bastard, is this your responsibility?" ”

It seems that he must have been there, but at this time, Li Ledger was unwilling.

"May I ask the big shopkeeper, did you borrow all the manuscripts of Pang Shangpeng?"

"We're all readers, what's your business? There are many ordinary people in the world, you see, the dog official in the court is so addicted to watching. ”

Hearing someone whispering below, the county order slapped the startled wood, and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw that it was written in the book: In the fourteenth time, Hua Zixu died of anger, and Li Bei'er went to the meeting to meet the adulterer

The eyes and hearts are not resting, and they can't bear to scratch their heads; The smiling face of the spring is charming, and the eyebrows and willows are sad; The pink peach cheeks are thinking about the couple, and the cold orchid room is looking forward to taking precautions; How can he get along with each other and not let Wen Jun sing his head white.

Reading this, the county magistrate couldn't help nodding secretly, and couldn't help but praise: Well, it is also righteous to not let Wen Jun sing his head white......

At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the court, and the county magistrate guessed that Hai Rui should have come, so he hurriedly dropped the manuscript and ran out to greet him.

The enemy is very red when they meet! Zhu Hui immediately pulled out the embroidered spring knife and slashed at Huang Bingwen desperately, so frightened that he hurriedly dodged, took a few steps back, and dodged a knife.

A large group of officials dragged Zhu Hui away, and listened to Huang Bingwen say loudly: "No child, don't hinder Dongchang's case, if not, this official will write to the old prince of Chengguo and dismiss your official position." ”

Shi Shiyong pretended not to know and deliberately asked, "Who is here?" ”

One of the servants replied: "Lord Huang, the chief criminal officer of the East Factory." ”

Shangyuan County Commander stepped forward to bow and salute, and said: "The lower officials have visited Lord Huang and are waiting for all the adults to hear this case together......

"The county master has worked hard! Lord Hai will be here soon, and the three halls will be tried tonight, and the culprit of this disobedience case must be found out, and the court record must be made. ”

When Zhu Hui got rid of the control of the officials, Song He's first attack beat those soldiers to the ground, and the Shangyuan County Order was frightened into a puddle of mud and fainted to the ground in an instant.

The vengeful Zhu Hui chased after Huang Bingwen until he reached the yamen, but was stopped by Yang Zhukuai, who had just arrived.

"Lord Ying Tian Xun Fuhai has arrived!"

As Master Wu shouted, Hai Rui stepped down from the sedan chair and ordered Zhu Hui and the others to stop immediately.

So, Huang Bingwen stepped forward and bowed and said, "Tonight's trial, please Lord Hai preside, please!" ”

With the support of the officials, the Shangyuan County Commander met Hai Rui with a trembling look, Huang Bingwen never left Hai Rui's left and right, and the three presiding judges walked into the court at the same time.

Hai Rui sat in the middle of the court, Huang Bingwen on the left, and Shangyuan County on the right, and put a chair next to Master Wu for him to make a court record.

First of all, the Shangyuan County Order sorted out the confiscated books, and the official escorted the party Yang Gongzi in and began to tell the story of the case......

Hearing the facts of the case, Hai Rui slapped the shocked wood and said: "Young Master Yang, these books, which were accused of rebellion and immorality by the Huangzhang criminal officer, were all copied from your bedroom. ”

Yang Gongzi, who stood up and didn't kneel, was dumbfounded, he thought that Huang Bingwen was coming, and he would release himself immediately, but he didn't think about it, he didn't ask about it, and he was hit by a hundred boards first, which scared him away.

Two wolf-like servants pressed Yang Gongzi down, he hurriedly changed to a kneeling position, struggled to climb a few steps forward, and shouted loudly: "Lord Qingtian spare your life!" ”

"Stop!" Huang Bingwen knew that Hai Rui was scaring him, gave him a look, and asked, "Young Master Yang, this official asked you, where did these things come from?" You have to be quick to get it. ”

Yang Gongzi looked at the two compartments, and saw the official holding high the killing stick, so frightened that he hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, no matter what, this son is a showman, don't be rude."

At this time, Hai Rui said calmly: "Young Master Yang, this official knows that you are from a proud family and a merry and talented man with a famous Beijing master, what is the name of that masterpiece?" ”

Hearing him ask such a question, Huang Bingwen knew that it was bad, he knew Yang Gongzi's temperament best, he liked others to praise his family background, and he liked to hear him as a talented man, so he immediately reminded: "Yang Gongzi, where did you borrow these two manuscripts?" Hurry up and tell it, and it's nothing to do with you. ”

Yang Gongzi has written a lot of absurd and unruly articles, and in his heart, he can't be compared with those two books at all, he feels that there is nothing wrong with these two books, and he knows that this is not written by Pang Shangpeng, so he really can't understand why he is so aggressive?

Regarding the manuscript of the book without a name, he once asked Pang Shangpeng, who is the author Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, and why didn't he name the book? But Pang Shangpeng couldn't answer, at this moment, he suddenly remembered the characters in the book, what Pan Jinlian, Li Bei'er, Pang Chunmei, Wu Yueniang, Sun Yue'e, etc., so he replied casually: "Hehe, I really didn't expect that a copy of "Golden Bottle Plum" would make the city stormy, making you adults feel like they were facing a big enemy, which is really uplifting." ”

Yang Gongzi neither admitted nor denied that he wrote the book, but he named the book, which made Huang Bingwen angry.

"Quickly bring the Li account room of Xingji Money Village."

The official escorted Li into the public court, and Huang Bingwen continued: "This person is the account clerk of Xingji Qianzhuang, tell me, who wrote that absurd and unruly book, and a big rebellious anti-book?" ”

Li Ledger had long regretted his death, and replied stubbornly: "As far as I know, it was written by Pang Shangpeng, the big shopkeeper of Xingji Qianzhuang, in his spare time. ”

Hai Rui held up the transcript of "Journey to the West" and asked: "What explanation should be given to this anti-book, which was reported as disobedience, has the author Wu Chengen written on the title page?" ”

Li replied: "Also, maybe Pang Shangpeng gave him an alias in private, or he made it in the name of Wu Chengen." ”

Hai Rui was startled and shouted, "Pass Pang Shangpeng." ”

Pang Shangpeng was brought into the court, he has a meritorious reputation, and there is no need to kneel.

Hai Rui asked, "Shopkeeper Pang, do you know this person?" ”

Pang Shangpeng glared angrily at the Li account room at his feet, and replied angrily: "I wanted to finish the past few days and ask you to come back to be Mr. Bookkeeper, but I didn't expect you to be so ungrateful, using the characters in the book to insinuate Emperor Taizu Gao, making up lies, and framing the old man, you are really a heinous and shameless person!" ”

Li knew that there was no way out, so he lay on the ground and knocked his head several times.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the little ones don't dare to frame the owner anyway, although the shopkeeper Pang is as kind to me as a mountain, but the small ones can't see him viciously attack the court, let the monkeys rebel, and use the topic to insult the grandfather, not to mention, he also wrote a lot of immoral obscene clichés, usually when he is fine, he shows off in front of the small, if the small one has half a lie, the sky will hit five thunders."

So, Huang Bingwen paced square steps, came to Pang Shangpeng's approach, sneered, and asked contemptuously: "Huge shopkeeper, what else do you have to say?" ”

Li Shufang hugged Pang Shangpeng's thigh, pleading with tears in his eyes.

"Owner, you confess, even if I don't denounce it, you will have to do something sooner or later, if the little one can accept it on your behalf, I am willing to accompany you to admit punishment and accept punishment......"

Finding that Pang Shangpeng still wanted to plead, Huang Bingwen waved his hand and ordered: "Escort the prisoner Pang Shangpeng and the witnesses to the capital and be tried by the Imperial Prison." ”

When the soldiers came up to put shackles on Pang Shangpeng, Zhu Hui and Shi Shiyong immediately stopped them.

"What kind of system is it to be so noisy in court!"

Hai Jui shouted, the two sides still did not stop, and the conflict was about to break out......

At this moment, Huang Bingwen hopes to make as much trouble as possible, and the reason why he called Hai Rui to handle this case is to drag him into the water, no matter whether he can successfully frame Pang Shangpeng, and whether he can impeach Hai Rui, as long as he can alarm His Majesty the Emperor, he can start an investigation of Hai Rui and win time for manipulating this year's silk weaving procurement.

At this moment, Pang Shangpeng was suddenly heard laughing loudly.

"If you want to find out the origin of these two books, there are still two witnesses who were not present."

Huang Bingwen was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Which two witnesses?" ”

"Wu Xiang and Tang Jing."
