Under the sun, Ye Zhizhou's crimson official robe at the entrance of the state yamen was conspicuous.

In an instant, Lotte felt that Ye Zhizhou's figure instantly became taller, and his face couldn't help showing a little joy, almost singing that you are people's savior, and Lotte was the opposite of Huang Tongju on the other side, seeing Ye Zhizhou's arrival, his face couldn't help but show a little haze.

"I've seen Governor Ye!" Shi Gou took two quick steps and stepped forward.

Ye Mengde has also been a Beijing official, and when he saw that this person was dressed as a palace servant, he bowed his hand and said, "I've seen a nobleman!" "The attitude is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Wronged, Master Ye saved the villain's life!"

Just as Ye Mengde and Shi Gou were saluting, Lotte, who was in shackles, opened his mouth and shouted.

Seeing Lotte shouting, the two armorers hurriedly pressed Lotte down, for fear that something would happen.

Hearing Lotte shouting loudly, Ye Mengde cast his eyes over, a little puzzled look appeared in his eyes, and then glanced at the official Shi Gou on the opposite side, and asked: "Dare to ask the nobleman, what crime has this person committed, and where is he going to be detained!" ”

The eunuchs who served as the Imperial City Division's points have always been of low rank, Tan Zhi was only a positive fifth grade when he took office, and the power of the eunuchs of the Song Dynasty has always been weak in front of the civil officials, and this historical official is only a mere seventh grade, how dare he be big in front of Ye Mengde, and hurriedly replied: "This person is a northern fine work captured by the Imperial City Detective in Caizhou recently!" ”

Although Lotte was firmly held down by the two soldiers, he was not gagged, and when he heard Shi Gou Dangguan speak like this, he hurriedly shouted: "Master Ye, the villain is not a fine work, the villain is Pingyu County Lotte Lotte, who came to Caizhou yesterday on the order of Chen County, specifically to visit the boss!" ”

Lotte's shouting like this naturally has its own purpose, but in Lotte's heart, Ye Mengde's willingness to help him solve his difficulties is still unknown. As long as he climbs Ye Mengde, the five-grade Zhizhou, things will become complicated, this eunuch will definitely have some scruples in his heart, and it is impossible for Ye Mengde to stay out of the matter.

There was a verbal war with Huang Tong in the lobby of Pingyu County, as well as the urban planning book that rebuilt Pingyu, how could Ye Mengde, who was a state seal, not know that it was precisely because of Lotte's talent that Ye Zhizhou had the intention of transferring Lotte to his side on an errand. I heard the voice and stepped forward to Rakuten.

After being held in prison for a day and being shackled again, Lotte's image is a little embarrassed, but it has not changed much compared to normal days.

"It's you ......" recognized Lotte, Ye Mengde was surprised: "How did you become a fine work in the northern country?" ”

Ye Mengde recognized himself, obviously he had the meaning of defending himself, and Lotte said pitifully: "The villain came to Caizhou to visit the boss, but he didn't know how to be framed by someone for becoming a fine work of the Liao State, and he was almost punished, and I hope that the boss will clear the villain's grievances!" ”

Ye Mengde was also slightly shocked, raised his eyebrows and said: "This case is very important, this mansion has been patrolling Shangcai in the past few days, who dares to set up a court to interrogate you on behalf of you?" ”

"This person Ye Zhizhou knows?" Listening to Ye Meng's recognition, Shi Gou stepped forward and asked.

Ye Meng smiled and replied: "This person is a small official of Pingyu County, he is capable of doing things on weekdays, and he is a good poet, and he is quite famous among the literati of my Great Song Dynasty, and this official is planning to transfer this little official to his side to use!" ”

"The boss is in charge of the villain!" Taking advantage of the situation, Lotte shouted again: "Since the villain was born, this is the first time he has come to Caizhou out of Pingyu, and he has not even taken half a step in Pingyu County before, and he has been framed by others for some reason, and has become a fine work of Liao!" ”

Listening to Lotte's words, Na Tian Wei hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Two bosses, don't listen to this careful quibble, this person is clearly ......"

It's just a matter of Lotte defending himself, even Yizhou Zhengyin defended Lotte, and Shi Gou raised his eyebrows and asked: "Tian Wei, let's ask you, did you inquire about this person before you arrested him?" ”

Seeing Shi Gou's question, Tian Wei hurriedly replied: "Xiao Di saw that the tooth cleaning utensils used by this person were indeed used by the nobles of the Northern Kingdom, so he took this person down when he was suspicious, as for the identity of this person, Xiao Di is under thorough investigation!" As he spoke, Tian Wei leaned in and whispered a few words in front of Shi Gou, and the Shi Gou official's eyes flashed with a little doubt.

I don't know how to call Shi Gou as an official, Lotte learns Ye Mengde's title to Shi Gou as an official, and exclaims in a similar way: "This nobleman, that toothbrush is just a whimsical idea of a villain, and it really can't be evidence!" ”

Although the Imperial City Division is not as notorious as the later Jinyiwei, it is also quite fierce and ruthless, which is why Tian Wei was able to take Lotte to prison with a toothbrush.

It's just that the situation has changed now, Lotte has Ye Zhizhou as a support, and when Shi Gou acted as an official, he also knew that with a toothbrush, it was really unreasonable to identify Lotte as a fine work of Liao, but Tian Wei was a henchman cultivated by himself, and he had been lurking in Liao for several years, so he should not misjudge.

With a clear understanding of Lotte's details, Ye Mengde naturally knew that Lotte was not a fine work, so he thought a little and changed his voice: "Lotte, the official will ask you, the official has been inspecting Cai Cai in the past few days, who opened the court to interrogate you?" ”

"Back to the boss, the villain was taken into the state capital prison by the sergeant at the inn yesterday evening, and he is the villain of Huang Tong's trial!" Lotte replied truthfully, and then opened his mouth to defend himself: "The villain really doesn't know, the villain's invention of this toothbrush will be similar to the tooth cleaning thing used by the Fanbang people, if the villain is made by Liao, how dare he openly use this thing to clean his teeth?" ”

Speaking of this, Lotte suddenly set off the idea of revenge on Huang Tongju, and said again, "Besides, Huang Tongju has also been to Pingyu, and he has had a holiday with the villain, when this Tian Daren interrogated the villain, Huang Tongju did not tell Tian Daren about the villain's situation, and the villain suspected that Huang Tongju intended to take revenge on the public, and borrowed the hand of this Tian Daren to get rid of the villain quickly!" ”

This Tian Wei is a person from the Imperial City Division, and he would never dare to retaliate, but it is still somewhat feasible to take revenge on Huang Tongju by the hand of the Imperial City Division and put the responsibility on Huang Tongju.

Although Ye Zhizhou did not directly testify for Lotte in a few words, the meaning was almost the same, and Tian Wei, who realized that he had been derelict in his duties due to misjudgment, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. remembered that he had a flying pigeon biography and led his boss to Caizhou, how could he let himself go easily.

Tian Wei was able to become the personal servant of the Imperial City Division, naturally he was not a stupid person, otherwise he would not have lurked in the garrisoned Southern Courtyard Dawang Mansion for three years and retreated, and immediately got inspiration from Lotte's words.

Immediately, Tian Wei glared at Huang Tongju angrily, and shouted: "Lord Huang, Tian is a detective of the Imperial City Division, only the duty of investigation has no right to try, Tian took the suspect to prison, but Lord Huang did not notify Tian of the night trial in the general judgment hall, Tian Mou was afraid that Huang would steal the merit after getting the news, so he went to the general judgment hall.

But in the court, Your Excellency didn't even mention the acquaintance with the suspect, but just blindly clamored to torture the suspect to extract a confession, if it wasn't for Tian's failure to agree, I am afraid that the suspect will not be able to bear the torture to extract a confession, and will be tortured into a confession! ”

After listening to Tian Wei's words, cold sweat immediately broke out on Huang Tongju's forehead, and he didn't dare to open his mouth to refute, he really couldn't provoke the Imperial City Division, but his body trembled.

How could the officials of Caizhou Mansion not hear it, although Tian Wei's words were high-sounding, they were actually full of prevarication, and at the same time they all sighed that Tian Wei's face was not ordinarily thick, and at this time, everyone was afraid of being led by this matter, so how could they open their mouths to speak for Huang Tongju.

After the words fell, Tian Wei glanced at Lotte, and there was a little more gratitude in his eyes.

His eyes swept over the crowd, and Ye Mengde said: "Whether Lotte is a fine work of the Liao State or not, it can't be concluded for the time being, first put the house under house arrest to restrict access and access, and it is not too late to deal with it after the nobles find out!" After the words fell, Ye Mengde turned his gaze to Shi Goudang, and said, "What does the noble person think?" ”

At this time, everyone knew that Lotte was not a meticulous work, and Ye Mengde also gave the Imperial City Division a step down when he spoke like this, how could Shi Gou not know it, so he nodded and said: "What Governor Ye said is very true, our family will stay in Caizhou for a few more days, and it will not be too late to leave after the case is cleared!" ”

Tian Wei is his right-hand man, Shi Gou and cherish feathers, now he has such a big oolong, he always has to make a scapegoat to give Jia Wang and Tan a little explanation, if Lotte is just an ordinary person, after being killed by Shi Gou as an official, it will be just a matter of reporting, but Lotte is quite famous in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is Ye Zhizhou's blue eyes, he really can't move, and Huang Tongju is the court official of the eighth grade, and he also has a backer in the court, and it is not appropriate to buckle his hat indiscriminately, which gives Shi Gou a problem. Who will carry this black cauldron at the bottom.

Relieved of the shackles and shackles, Lotte was immediately much more relaxed, and was placed in an idle official residence where the government officials lived, but there were guards around him at all times, and access was restricted.

Before the facts of the case are conclusive, according to the customary system, and in order to avoid suspicion, Lotte can't go to see Ye Mengde at this time.

Confined to the official residence, Lotte stayed in a few days of extreme boredom, and suddenly an uninvited guest came on this day, but it was Tian Wei who caught Lotte as a spy.

If it weren't for Ye Mengde's timely appearance, his life might be lost in the hands of this person, Lotte really didn't want to see this person, but the scene was full of things, Lotte welcomed Tian Wei into the house, and after the ceremony, Lotte said: "Why are you here?" ”

Tian Wei smiled awkwardly: "In the past few days, Tian sent someone to Pingyu to visit Mr. Roots, only to know that it was all Tian who was stubborn and derelict in his duties, and almost let you suffer an injustice!" ”

The Great Song Dynasty Wenzun is humble, although Lotte's identity is only a county official and a county student, but he is quite famous, plus Ye Zhizhou's blue eyes, although this Tian Wei is a military attache with a rank, he has to put down his shelf at this time.

Seeing Tian Wei's posture, Lotte was not easy to calculate, so he had to deal with it: "The military is no matter how big or small, and he is loyal to his duties, and he is really a pillar of the imperial court!"

Tian Wei is not a fool, why can't he hear it, Lotte openly boasted of himself, secretly mocked himself, Tian Wei didn't care, just said a little crampedly: "I came here today, I want to ask Mr. about something!" ”

"What?" Lotte was a little surprised.

"Knowing that Mr. is in Pingyu, Tian is also impressed!" Tian Wei uncharacteristically touted Lotte to come.

Regarding Tian Wei's abnormality, Lotte was vigilant: "What's the matter with the general, just say it directly!" ”

Tian Wei's expression became solemn: "Mr. also knows, because Tian misunderstood Mr., not only alarmed Shi Gou, but also alarmed the two people at the highest level of the Imperial City Division, and now Tian doesn't know how to explain to his boss, I have asked Mr. for advice today, and I hope Mr. will teach me!" ”

Lotte shook his head and smiled bitterly: "General Tian is looking for the wrong thing, how did the little official of a certain county ask about the general's affairs!" ”

Seeing Lotte's resignation, Tian Wei didn't care: "Mr. is resourceful in Pingyu, not only repaid the wine debt for Chen Zhixian, but also borrowed Feng Bao's hand to pit Huang Tongju's brother, and earlier because of the difference of one word, he saved Huo County's uncle, and even once played a beautiful fairy jump, so that the abbot monk of Kaiyuan Temple obediently obeyed!" ”

Speaking of this, Tian Wei changed his face: "If Tian turns out these old things, Mr. will inevitably suffer some involvement!" ”

Lotte was surprised, this Imperial City Division was really not a vegetarian, and no one knew about what he had done, but he was inquired about by the other party, and his face couldn't help but change color: "What do you want?" ”
