Chapter 117, all claim to be innocent
After finishing speaking, he kowtowed like his daughter's relatives in the lobby before.
Shen Mu looked at it with a toothache.
Looking at it like this, the father and son of the shopkeeper did not falsely accuse Rongzhi, not only that, but they also felt that Rongzhi was one of the best county orders in the history of Jixi County.
It's a real toothache.
Since coming to Jixi County, he found that this Rongzhi has indeed done a lot of practical things for the people in the four years since he took office, and there is no element of hypocrisy, and he even once was sick in bed for two months, and he is indeed a good official.
But now, not to mention whether he has anything to do with the Maitreya Sect, it is difficult to show his innocence just because he was involved in the poisoning case of Li Xiaoyou's restaurant.
He didn't think that Liang Baihu took away this honor in front of the imperial history today, although he slapped the imperial history in the face, but it was too high-profile, and it would bring big trouble to Jinyiwei.
"Even if it weren't for the Rong County Order falsely accused by the shopkeeper and his son, since this patrol is patrolling Huizhou Mansion, why don't you let this patrol also see Lord Liang's so-called evidence!" Liu Yushi continued to speak.
Liu Yushi felt that he had miscalculated his visit to Jixi County this time, he originally thought that Rong Zhi was quite good at being a man, but this time he just went through the motions, but he didn't expect that things were out of control.
Although he selfishly felt that Rongzhi would not collude with the Maitreya bandits, he expected that this Liang Tong, as a hundred households of Jinyiwei, would not dare to act too recklessly, and at this time, he would arrest Rongzhi, which showed that Jinyiwei still had any evidence.
But what kind of evidence will it be?
At this moment, when there is no other way, he can only start from the side of the evidence to see if he can find a flaw, and he will be the first army of Jinyi.
"I hope that the people of the court will forgive me, the entire case is still under investigation, in order not to leak the news and attract the attention of the Maitreya bandits, the details cannot be disclosed at will."
When Liang Baihu heard this, he blocked Liu Yushi's request again.
The rest of the hall looked at the two bigwigs in the hall and they were looking at each other so stupidly.
However, even if Rong Zhi was about to face the fate of becoming a prisoner, the expression on his whole face was still indifferent, and he did not shout hysterically when he was arrested like ordinary people, let alone kneel and beg for mercy, and his demeanor was greatly lost.
"You ......" Liu Yushi felt that he was angry unevenly, but he saw that the party Rong Zhi looked so indifferent and indifferent, and immediately said: "Lord Rong, what do you say?" ”
It's better for you to fight with Jinyi Wei for a while, you can't be in a hurry, he is half angry to death.
"Back to the words of the Lord of the Academy, since this brocade guard has to press Rongzhi for a crime, what can Rongzhi say, he can only say that he is clear."
"Each of the criminals arrested in the past claimed to be innocent when they were caught, but when the case was finally closed, they were filthy and dirty. Can Lord Rong really clear himself?
Take the honor with me! ”
Liang Baihu was too lazy to continue this Liu Yushi continued to talk about it, and directly ordered at the moment.
Just when Han Lin and Yuanchen were about to lock Rong Zhi again, someone from the hall came out and said: "Lord Liang, if you can't give definitive evidence today to prove that Lord Rong is guilty, forgive me that the people in Jixi County can't let you take Lord Rong away." ”
Shen Mu fixed his eyes and saw that he was the No. 2 person in Jixi County, the county leader of Jixi County.
As soon as the county officials of Jixi County came out like this, other officials at all levels in Jixi County also came out separately, all standing in the lobby, and repeated in unison: "Lord Liang, if you can't give definite evidence today, please forgive me that Jixi County can't let you take Lord Rong away."
"It's a good Jixi County, I don't know if you are loyal to the saint in the palace, or loyal to the Rong County Order?" Seeing this, Liang Baihu sneered.
"Lord Liang doesn't have to squeeze the top and bottom of Jixi County, Lord Rong is an upright official, loves the people, and unites his colleagues, Jixi County is united, so that he can govern the place for the saint, and the officials are excellent, and now that the Rong County Order has been arrested, how can they be indifferent?" Seeing this, Liu Yushi continued to support.
That's it, all of you have to contribute, you can't let him resist Jinyi Wei alone!
These officials from Jixi County blocked this hall like this, unless they get out of the way, otherwise, Liang Baihu and they can't even go out of the county hall today.
The two sides are at a stalemate, refusing to give in to each other.
Shen Mu understood that the reason why the people of Jixi County were so stubborn was, in the final analysis, because Liang Baihu and their Jinyiwei did not show clear and convincing evidence that Rong Zhi was suspected of colluding with the Maitreya Sect.
Not being able to convince the public, of course, is on the one hand, on the other hand, these people take this opportunity to express their dissatisfaction with Jinyiwei's style of work.
If they easily let the Jinyi guard arrest the county magistrate this time, they will arrest him.
So next time, if Jinyiwei sees that these petty officials and officials are not pleasing to the eye, and they send people to arrest them if they want to, wouldn't everyone be in danger.
Now they are doing this because they are determined that the law will not be held accountable, so many people are involved, and Jinyiwei can't arrest everyone.
The second is that they feel that Rongzhi itself is indeed more honest and self-controlled, and it is rarely criticized for doing things for others, and they will not do such things as self-destructive futures, and Jinyiwei can't really be bold and unscrupulous.
Not to mention, Lord Rong's teacher is Xie Gelao, one of the three elders of the cabinet today, and his wife is also a famous family, how can he really say that he will fall.
Even if Lord Rong falls, in this situation, no one will hold them accountable for their complicity, let alone that they really have nothing to do with the Maitreya bandits.
Shen Mu, who had been quietly watching the changes, had actually been paying attention to everyone's movements, and seeing that things were so deadlocked at this time, he saw that Liang Baihu glanced at him slightly.
He immediately understood what Liang Baihu meant, took a few steps forward, stood in front of all the officials in Jixi County, and said: "Today, our Jinyiwei is just taking the Rong County Order to make routine inquiries, since the people in Jixi County believe that the Rong County Order is innocent, then, what are you afraid of?" Could it be that he was afraid that the Rong County Order was really guilty and would not return, so he blocked it? ”
"Hmph, who knows if you will bend Lord Rong into a trick?" Some people still spoke out in anger.
"Oh, it seems that you have a great misunderstanding of our Jinyiwei, but do you think that Lord Rong, who is so handsome in your minds, will be a person who succumbs so easily?"
As soon as the words fell, Shen Mu no longer looked at the expressions of other people in Jixi County, but returned to Rong Zhi, met the other party's eyes, and said word by word: "Lord Rong, do you still remember the morning when you met Li Xiaoyou in Fengyang Mansion nine years ago?" ”
