Chapter 16 False filial son
There are only two people left who have contact with Zhang Ye after the child, they are the guards of the prisoner car, one is called Zhao Shan, and the other is called Sun Ji.
These two people are different from ordinary officers and soldiers, they belong directly to Dali Temple, and they came from Luoyang with Dong Liang, so naturally they will not shield anyone, so they can say whatever they want?
They also confirmed that Zhang Ye had drunk Jiao Meng's wine, but they also said another thing.
After Zhang Ye drank wine that night, he did not fall asleep as usual, but was very awake, and chatted with the two for a long time.
What is there to talk about between people who are not related to each other, basically Zhang Ye is talking alone.
Drinking and not sleeping and nagging, these actions together are unusual in themselves, could it be that Zhang Ye knew in advance that his deadline was approaching.
Bai Jian: "Young Master, this is very likely to be suicide." ”
This time, Bai Xiao did not refute Bai Jian, because he also had the same guess.
Li Yaonian: "It's better to die than to live, one more day is a day, I have been living secretly for so many years, and I haven't thought about dying, what can't he think about." ”
Bai Jian is showing his insight again, "Lao Li, you don't know, there are many officials who commit suicide in Luoyang, the imperial capital, because once you enter the Dali Temple, many times you will be connected to the three clans, so it is better to commit suicide before being tried, and die alone to save the family!" ”
This kind of thing really happened in Bai Xiao's memory, being an official does have the benefits of being an official, but at the same time, it also has to bear pressure that ordinary people can't imagine.
All this depends on the results of the autopsy, if Zhang Ye really committed suicide, then everything is happy, and there is nothing to do with Bai Xiao.
This kind of flying disaster, Bai Xiao really doesn't want to care.
It didn't take a few days for the work to arrive, but the results of the autopsy were unsatisfactory, Zhang Ye died of poisoning, and there were two different poisons in Zhang Ye's body.
Bai Xiao: "He must have killed him." ”
Bai Jian didn't want Bai Xiao to meddle anymore, "Young Master, why didn't you commit suicide?" One person can take two kinds of poisons! ”
"That's poison, it's not a sugar cube, you have to eat two kinds of it, one is going to kill you."
Zhang Ye didn't have any wounds on his body, which means that the poison went in his mouth, and now Jiao Meng couldn't escape the relationship, "It's hard work, let's go down first!" ”
"My lord, the villain hasn't finished his words yet, Zhang Ye is too protective of the poison in his body, one is to see the blood and seal the marquis, and the other is to hide it."
It is a chronic poison, then the scope is too large, from Yanmen County to Xihe County is not close, plus the heavy snow enclosure, at least a few days to walk.
There are so many people and things that you can come into contact with in this process that there is no way to check it out!
Zhang Ye's son Zhang Bi also came, and when he came, he cried and mourned, "Father, why did you go like this!" It's a child who is not filial! ”
Bai Xiao could have been chaotic, but now it is even more chaotic, "Zhang Gongzi, the deceased is gone, you better mourn and change!" ”
"Father." That burst into tears! I still don't listen to how much persuasion I can't hear.
Bai Xiao didn't want to waste his efforts here in Zhang Bi, but Wu Yezi walked over, "My lord, this Zhang Bi must be pretending to cry." ”
"Don't talk nonsense at this time."
"My lord, I often fake crying, when I used to bury people, everyone else cried, you can't cry if you don't cry! Otherwise, it is easy to be beaten, and when you really cry, you will kneel on the ground, and your body will involuntarily move, but fake crying will not. ”
Bai Xiao carefully observed Zhang Bi, and there were really some suspicions, Zhang Bi's head moved, but his body and legs did not move, this is really not a sign of heartbreak.
I was almost deceived, this Zhang Gongzi is hypocritical enough.
Li Yaonian hurriedly ran over from a distance, "Young master, the old slave also found out." ”
Today is really a good day, and the clues are coming one after another! It turned out that there was a very delicate wooden cork in Zhang Ye's clothes, which was hollow inside, and what was put was the poison that sealed his throat when he saw blood.
Bai Jian: "Young master, it's okay now, you can make a difference." ”
"What can I do with it?"
"This is obviously Zhang Ye's own poisoning, as for the other murderer, it is not so important, anyway, Zhang Ye himself doesn't want to live."
Just when Bai Xiao hesitated, there was a noise outside the window.
"Who?"
The man ran away, Bai Xiao and the others hurriedly chased out, there was nothing on the ground except footprints, and he ran really fast!
Bai Xiao had thought about everything, but he hadn't thought that the wall had ears.
"Luo Jun Zheng Tu, next time we talk about things, you guys are watching from the outside."
Bai Jian: "Young master, don't worry, we didn't say anything just now?" Even if it is said, it is a small one, and it has nothing to do with the young master. ”
Bai Xiao was not afraid of what he said, but afraid that the person who eavesdropped on it would do bad things.
Sure enough, the eavesdropper actually reported what he heard to Liuzhuang, but for a small reward, Liuzhuang returned it.
Liu Zhuang hurriedly looked for Bai Xiao, "You were too careless." "Liuzhuang also wants to make a big thing a small thing, but as soon as this person reports, there are more people who know about it, and they can't hide it if they want to.
Bai Xiao hurriedly straightened his position first, "At that time, Xia Guan just thought about it, and he didn't plan to let go of any murderer. ”
"Of course this Ben Taishou knows, but if it is done by your subordinates, this matter will completely become a matter of the county, you should know how tricky it is."
"My people?"
"Wearing the official uniform of the county official, it's not your person, it's my person."
"Xiaguan will deal with it." There are outsiders everywhere in the county office, so Bai Xiao didn't think about his own people at all, Bai Xiao asked himself if he was not thin on them!
There are only a few people in the county, and it is easy to turn them over if you want to find them out, and it is impossible to spend the money in the county office.
"Young master, the man has been found." A county guard was pushed in, and Li Yaonian also put the silver on the case in front of Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao, the county pawn, has a little impression, he was born as a beggar, and he is lazy all day long, Bai Xiao thinks that if he has a bite to eat, he will have a bite to eat, and now it is time to appease and raise adultery.
"If you want silver, tell me! I don't miss you for this, why should you betray me. ”
"My lord, the villain knows that he is wrong, you have bypassed me this time!"
Bai Xiao put the money back into the arms of the county guard, "Remember to take the right path in the future, Lao Li took off his official clothes and drove him out!" ”
"Don't, don't." I knew why I had to do it in the first place!
At this time, Bai Xiao will not be soft-hearted, Bai Xiao can't let a stinky fish ruin a pot of soup, it can be regarded as killing chickens and respecting dogs, and he must be ruthless.
Zhang Ye's matter is destined to be unavoidable, let alone Bai Xiao, even Liuzhuang began to have a headache, this kind of thing cannot be trusted.
Dong Liang is an official of Dali Temple, and he is also unlucky when the prisoner dies, if Bai Xiao Liuzhuang can solve it, of course, it's good, hello, I'm good, everyone.
But now that it's like this, why don't you have to put an end to it! He can't stay in Jinshan County all the time, and he still has to go back to Luoyang to restore his life?
In the end, Dong Liang still caught a substitute for the dead ghost, and he couldn't take care of it so much, Zhao Shan and Sun Ji were all Dong Liang's people, just change their confessions.
The name of the murderer easily fell on Jiao Meng's head.
A group of officers and soldiers spoke softly, and finally asked Bai Xiao here, this is a pit, a pit that makes people fall into the mud.
Bai Xiao could only find Dong Liang and look at his attitude, "Can't Master Dong let Jiao Meng go?" ”
"Seventh prince, don't be embarrassed, Zhang Ye is a repeat offender in the imperial court, and the above will inevitably be investigated, but when the people above come down, you will be fine, but the road to the next career will be broken."
"Is there no other choice?"
"No, Liu Zhuang also understands this truth, so he didn't say anything? The Seventh Prince must not mistake himself! ”
This means that Bai Xiao is a child of the Bai family, otherwise Dong Liang would not have said so much? I have said everything that should be said and what should not be said, and Dong Liang has never been so heartfelt and lungs to his family.
Dong Liang and Liuzhuang, the two chief officials, all acquiesced, and Bai Xiao really couldn't go his own way.
Otherwise, the sky will be pierced, Bai Xiao's ass is not clean, and if he repeats this kind of thing in the imperial court, he really doesn't want to return to Luoyang, the imperial capital.
Bai Xiao is not a saint, Jiao Meng is not a relative to him, at most he is just a friend of wine and meat, and he can't take such a big risk.
People are selfish, Bai Xiao is no exception, all Bai Xiao can do is to entertain him with good wine and food, and he can't go during the day, "Brother Jiao, I'm coming to see you." ”
"Looks like I'm going to be condemned."
"This..."
"Brother, you don't have to lie to me, I've lived for so many years, I've seen through this kind of thing a long time ago, I heard that you are running around for me, thank you for your kindness, let's not get drunk tonight!"
Hearing these words, Bai Xiao's heart was completely depressed, and he saw Jiao Meng's grievances in his eyes, but it was really to no avail.
"Drink." Bai Xiao didn't know how to pass this night, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he returned to the soft couch.
Bai Jian pushed the door in, "Young master, drink some soup and wake up the bar!" ”
You really can't drink too much of this wine, and whoever drinks too much will feel uncomfortable! Especially liquor, it hurts to drink too much! Dizzy, Bai Xiao opened the window.
The cold wind of the cold winter shocked people's spirits, and Bai Xiao saw Zhang Bi riding back on a horse, "Bai Jian, does Zhang Bi go out every day?" ”
"Isn't it? And it's all out at night. ”
His father died, and he came to visit naturally to show filial piety, and it is understandable to fake crying or something, and if the sinner wants to revive the family again, he must have the name of benevolence and filial piety.
Many people are in the name of benevolence and filial piety! Do everything to pretend, what a year of filial piety! What a vegetarian Buddha! In the end, it's not all about being an official and having a good career future.
But you have to pretend to the end! What's the deal with going out every night?
"Bai Jian, at night, you ask Luo Jun to follow and have a look."
"No, you don't."
"What?"
"Young master, do you know where he went? The smell of fat powder all over the body can be smelled as soon as you smell it, is this Zhang family son still a romantic character? ”
Isn't that just a bastard? His father's bones were not cold and he went to the Qinglou, the world is really big!
