"Hu Qi? They? Hearing this, Rong Zhi finally raised his head again.

"Yes, they!

Hu Qi also asked Shen Mu to plead with Liang Baihu for the sake of the many good things you have done for the people of Jixi County in the past few years, even if you go to the official and resign, you can save your life without worry!

But I refused, do you know why? ”

"Why? How could Shen Zongqi ask such a stupid question?

Isn't that something obvious?

You are Jinyiwei, since you have arrested this official, how can you casually agree to those who are not related to you to open up to Rongzhiwang? ”

Rong Zhi's eyes wandered, and his tone was flat and mocking.

"Huh! Is that really the case?

Does Lord Rong know that Shen Mu is so late, why did he still come to see you? Shen Mu also sneered, took a few steps closer to Rong Zhi's body, and then stared into the other party's eyes and said word by word:

"It's just because of Shen Mu...... I really want to ask Lord Rong a question, even if Mu is willing to open up to Lord Rong, but Li Xiaoyou, who was unjustly killed by adults, and the old doctor's family who was killed by thieves Tan Zhen and ruined their granddaughter, who should get justice for them?

Please Lord Rong give Shen Mu an answer. ”

"What? What did you say? Who died? Old...... Doctor...... What's wrong with the family? The originally calm expression on Rong Zhiyan's face finally cracked, and a pair of eyes widened suddenly, asking with an expression of disbelief.

"Heh, since Lord Rong has colluded with that thief monk Tan Zhen, don't you know what kind of character the other party is?

That person was already greedy for money and lustful and harmed the lives of countless women from good families, could it be that Lord Rong didn't know?

Poor old doctor's family, who have settled in Jixi County for generations, are benevolent and benevolent, and I don't know how many people have been treated with medical skills?

Did he pour blood mold for many lifetimes, or did he not do good deeds in his previous life, just because he had a good thought in the middle of the night, but he brought such bad luck to his family.

What's even more ridiculous is that this bad luck was brought to them by Jixi County, who helped the weak with a hoe, was kind and benevolent, and had a clear political performance.

I'm afraid the old doctor's family can't even dream of it! Shen Mu continued to sneer.

"How could it be...... How could it be...... Yes...... ...... like this"

At this moment, Rong Zhi's originally calm expression not only disappeared, but the whole person also became dazed, his eyes lost their brilliance, and his tall figure seemed to be a little shorter in an instant.

Then, almost mechanically, he turned around slowly and walked in the direction of the table, but after taking two steps, he staggered and nearly fell to the ground.

Fortunately, there was a table in front of me to support it, so I didn't really fall to the ground.

"Shen Mu has never understood, why Lord Rong is doing this, haven't you always flaunted that you love the people like a son?

Why do you want to push a butcher's knife into the necks of your own people?

Is it just to hide your secret?

But because of this secret so many people have died?

Is Lord Rong satisfied now?

Satisfied? ”

Shen Mu had already sensed that Rong Zhi was distracted at the moment, and immediately seized the opportunity, pressing step by step between his words.

Rong Zhi's tall body trembled and sat down on the table, and then he looked ahead in distraction.

"Now, who else does Lord Rong want to kill? It's good to tell Shen Mu in advance, so that Shen Mu can prepare? ”

Shen Mu took another step forward and approached.

After a while, Rong Zhi's distracted eyes regained their vitality, and then gradually returned to flatness, raised his head and looked at Shen Mu and said: "That's it, now, this official really shouldn't make mistakes again and again, and let himself fall into today's situation, and he can't blame others."

If Shen Zongqi wants to know anything, just ask! ”

"Since Lord Rong is willing to tell Shen Mu what happened, then Mu is still the same question as before, Lord Rong is already an official of the imperial court, and his future is limitless, why do you have to ask for the life of Li Xiaoyou, a guy from the Fortune Building?"

When Shen Mu heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, sat down on the other side of the table, and spoke.

"This matter starts from ten years ago, at that time, Benguan was still a student in Fengyang Mansion, he had been reading poetry and books since he was a child, and he also had some talent, and his studies were also the best among his classmates in the college, and his fame was just around the corner.

But my father and grandparents were killed in the early years of the family, and the family was in the middle of the road, and only my mother and relatives worked hard to manage the family business for me to study.

Whenever I see my mother working so hard, getting up early and being greedy for darkness, and not being free to rest all day, in just a few years, people have grown old and withered a lot, and the official's heart is always sour and unbearable.

I also wanted to give up my studies and find a craft to support my family, but every time I saw the expectant eyes of my teacher and mother, I couldn't say this idea.

In this way, after more than half a year, suddenly a customer came from afar and took out a few IOUs, saying that it was my dead uncle, who owed debts before his death, and if he did not repay the debts, he would go to see the official.

The mother begged bitterly, and the other party gave her a few days, and she tried to find a way, in order to be afraid that the report would affect the reputation of the official.

The guest was promised a temporary grace period.

The official's mother's health was not good, and now she was even more seriously ill by this unexpected debt.

I lay down for a few days, but fortunately, the kind uncle next door went to the academy to inform the official, and the official knew the reason.

hurriedly rushed home, but the family business was difficult, and he couldn't afford to buy the expensive medicinal materials used in his mother's treatment, let alone pay off his debts.

In desperation, the official planned to borrow a little silver from the son of a local official family to turn around one or two, but the official proposed that it was okay to ask for silver, and the official needed to help the other party cheat in the township examination in the coming year.

How can this be, there is no impermeable wall in the world, if this is known by the great master of the Academy, the future of this official's scientific examination is very likely to be ruined, and my mother may not accept this result.

Since the official refused the other party's request, the official family was annoyed and angry, and immediately let out the words, asking others not to lend money to the official for turnover.

In desperation, the official had no choice but to plan to go back to the academy and open his mouth to his classmates in the academy, but the ghost and the god had just gone out that day, and happened to see a rich and noble family in the county town going out for a funeral.

The coffin was so heavy that the body of the person carrying the coffin could not stand upright, and there were many funeral goods inside.

Looking at the funeral procession in the distance, at this moment, a crazy idea arose in the official's heart.

The official knew that not far from the mountain behind his house, there were several family burial places.

Are there a lot of gold, silver and jewelry buried in these burial sites?

If you can choose a night to find a grave and dig it, maybe you can dig something out of the tomb, so that the mother's medicine will be paid, and you don't have to borrow money to see people's faces.

In short, the official later felt that he should have been stunned at that time, and after having this thought, he couldn't suppress it anymore.

But if a scholar goes to dig a grave and dig a grave, if the matter is exposed, the same reputation will be ruined, and what face will he have to rank above the court?

To do it or not?

When the official returned home, he saw that there was no rice left in the pot next month, and a penny was difficult for the hero, and the official knew the feeling of poverty.

After locking himself in his room and thinking about it all night, the official finally decided to take a risk, just once.

Now that he had made up his mind, in the next two days, he first surveyed the terrain, selected a cemetery that was more suitable for excavation, and it was very likely that there was treasure in the tombs, and then secretly prepared the tools, chose the right time, and began to act.

As a result, the official was very lucky, this tomb has really not been touched, there is a small mechanism inside, and it is not difficult for the official, and there are many funeral goods in it, as well as two or three extremely valuable treasures.

The official collected these things, did not dare to stay for a long time, quickly covered the entrance of the cave, and after walking forward for some distance, he unfortunately encountered the three tomb robbers who died in the restaurant.

The three tomb robbers were digging up one of the other graves, and it seemed that they had made a difference, but it should not be too big.

Maybe there is a certain number in the dark, originally the official was afraid of these people, although there was no moonlight that night, it was a cloudy day, and there was a distance between them, even if the other party was carrying a lantern in his hand, he might not be able to see each other's faces clearly.

However, one of the tomb robbers, after seeing the appearance of the official covered in mud, actually stepped forward and greeted: "Shout, this is also our new colleague?"

Let me see what it looks like? ’

As he spoke, he pulled down the cloth towel on his face.

There were three people on the other side at that time, and there was only one official, and there was nowhere to hide at all, but at that time, the official's talent was far and wide, and many people knew him, and this tomb robber was no exception.

He immediately laughed, 'Isn't this our Rongda talent?' Why did you start to do the trick of Captain Jin with us? ’

At that time, the official knew that there was no way out, so he simply calmed down, and immediately said to the three tomb robbers: "Brothers, if you want to rob you of business, you can Rongzhi's mother in the family is seriously ill, and the three eldest brothers will find out when they look back and inquire."

Rong Zhi really can't, just give it a try tonight, just want to ask his mother for some medical money, Rong Zhi knows that the three eldest brothers are also temperamental, the younger brother did find a few good treasures here, a few big brothers look at it and give a price, how much to give, the right to pity the poor little brother's seriously ill mother. ’

At that time, I heard a lot of rumors about touching gold, and I just thought that no matter what, I just wanted to save some life-saving money.

These three people must not be allowed to kill for money.

As a result, the fortunate thing in the misfortune was that the boss of the three tomb robbers turned out to be a filial son, and he really knew a little about the official's family affairs, so he exchanged the gold and silver in his hand for the three treasures in his hand, and let the official leave.

At that time, it was considered that there was no danger, but after the official left at that time, he was already flustered, and it was dark, so he panicked and fell into a small puddle and got muddy.

I had to wash the mud off my body again in a nearby creek.

After such a delay, the sky was dawn.

At dawn, I met Li Xiaoyou from a neighboring village going up the mountain to chop firewood. ”
