Maiden led this group of officers and soldiers, shouting "can't go away to the thief", and while speaking, he had already found the shopkeeper of the merchant, the Jin family's shop, which mainly dealt in cloth and spices, and after the officers and soldiers turned the store into a mess, they went to the backyard. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info saw that the incense mist was shrouded in the backyard of his house, and many incense branches were burning.

Maiden immediately ordered: "Come on, take this thief for me!" ”

The golden shopkeeper was taken aback and even shouted wronged.

Maiden sneered: "The anti-thief we want to arrest is to burn incense and raise fire as a code, if you have nothing to do with the anti-thief, how can you burn incense at this time?" ”

The golden shopkeeper said: "The reason why the villain wants to burn a lot of incense ashes is to supply those rich and wealthy families. They are particular about life, and they have to take incense ash to pad the toilet. If the official doesn't believe it, you can ask them. ”

Maiden snorted, then looked at the white cloth drying all over the yard and asked, "And what is this?" ”

The shopkeeper replied: "Speaking of which, it is also unfortunate for my family, my mother passed away yesterday, and I am preparing for the funeral in the past few days. Because there is a white cloth in the warehouse at home, I took it out to dry, and tomorrow I will give it to the whole family. ”

Maiden sneered, "I don't see that you still have a sharp mouth." Is there such a coincidence? The thief said that he would burn incense in the middle of the night as a code, wrap his arms in a white cloth, and go out of Chang'an, I will find out these forbidden things in your house now, you have to be reasonable, go and talk to Liu Shangshu. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and ordered the golden shopkeeper to be taken away. Where was the golden shopkeeper willing to go, he screamed again and again, struggled desperately, and later turned into crying and scolding. The family ran out one after another, making a mess, the golden shopkeeper child was just six years old, stepped forward and bit Maiden's hand, Maiden was furious, kicked out, kicked the child straight out of a few feet away, crying silently, the child's mother immediately fainted.

In the midst of the noise, a man suddenly jumped out of the shadow of the low wall next to him and shouted, "Are you arresting me by mobilizing the people like this?" Zhou Bo is here, don't waste any more thoughts! ”

When everyone heard this, they looked up and saw a rough-looking man standing in front of them.

Everyone was stunned, Maiden took out the drawings, carefully checked them, and ordered: "Take it away, take this merchant with you." ”

Zhou Bo said angrily: "You shameless beast, I have already said that I voluntarily surrendered, what is the matter with this family, and I will not let them go!" ”

Everyone ignored them and took the two away.

The golden shopkeeper was escorted by the officers and soldiers, and was escorted to the prison all the way. When I entered the prison door, I saw that there were already four or five acquaintances who had already been locked up here. After a rough calculation, there were more than a dozen of them, and everyone was panicked, and they couldn't figure out when they became thieves. And that Zhou Bo, who was obviously an important person, was taken elsewhere as soon as he entered the door, and it seemed that Liu Shangshu was anxious to see this person.

Speaking of Liu Zhennan, the secretary of the military department, everyone in Chang'an City knows that this person has led the army to fight with the Turks on the border many times, and it is said that he has made great contributions. Liu Zhennan is very favored by Empress Wei and is one of the most powerful people in the government and the opposition. What does his desire to arrest the thieves have to do with these people?

While he was talking, someone shouted, "It's over."

The golden shopkeeper was still in a daze, and he had been pushed out by two soldiers. The golden shopkeeper naturally shouted that he was wronged, and the chief judge said: "It seems that you don't want to admit the punishment!" ”

The flesh and blood of the golden shopkeeper, how to withstand such a severe punishment, fainted several times on the spot, and when he was dragged back to the prison, he was no longer human, and he died at night.

From the evening of that day to the next day, more than a dozen businessmen were imprisoned in the prison, claiming to be suspects, adding up to more than 30. When they were taken to prison, they were nothing more than torture, and nearly 10 people died in one night as a result of the torture with sticks. The family members and relatives outside ran up and down, shouting for injustice, but what to do with it. For a time, there was a lot of noise in the West Market, and ordinary people were panicked, fearing that disaster would fall from the sky.

On this day, the wife of the golden shopkeeper brought her children to the grave of her husband and mother-in-law, and when she came back from the grave of her husband and mother-in-law, she was sad in the face of the devastation of the house, and she cried loudly, but at this time a person came to the door, and this person was Zhong Shaojing.

Zhong Shaojing passed by Xishi, and heard that the crying in the vicinity shook the sky, more than ten families were doing funerals, and more than 30 people lost their lives in a short period of time. Zhong Shaojing was surprised and felt that things were very strange, so he came to visit various homes and inquire about the whole story.

After listening to what happened, and hearing Jin's wife say that a person named Zhou Bo had been arrested at the same time on the night of the incident, Zhong Shaojing stood up suddenly and shouted: "Liu Zhennan, Liu Zhennan, you actually did such a hurtful thing, and heaven is intolerable." Zhou Bo, Zhou Bo, do you know that because of you, so many innocent people have died tragically. What is the principle of heaven in this world? ”

Seeing his expression, Jin's wife looked excited and asked, "It seems that the adults know the reason for this matter?" ”

Zhong Shaojing sighed and said, "That's a long time. ”

At that moment, he told the people who rushed to hear the news in detail what happened.

Not long ago, the Turks invaded, and Liu Zhennan took command to resist the enemy as the secretary of the military department. Zhou Boben was a ranger general who followed Liu Zhennan to lead an army against the Turks. The army initially encountered the Turkic army, and suffered defeat due to unfamiliar terrain, but Liu Zhennan was stubborn and narrow-minded, and refused to listen to the correct advice of Zhou Bo and others to sneak attack on the side to preserve strength.

The court held him accountable, and Liu Zhennan actually put all the fault on Zhou Bo and asked the court to kill him.

At the critical juncture, fortunately, a school guard under Liu Zhennan sent a letter to him, and Zhou Bo had to lead his two subordinates Wang Sen and Wang Lin brothers to escape from the border overnight, preparing to go to Chang'an to meet the emperor and make it clear.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived in Chang'an City, I saw that the streets were full of notices, and it turned out to be Zhou Bo, who was wanted by the whole city, saying that he was on the verge of disobedience and delayed the military plane, and those who provided clues would be rewarded with a thousand gold.

It turned out that Liu Zhennan had already returned to the court one step ahead, and said that Zong Chuke had convicted Zhou Bo. Zhou Bo's previous subordinates in the army were also split by Liu Zhennan and incorporated into several teams under him.

Seeing the situation like this, Zhou Bo took out his savings and asked Wang Sen and Wang Lin brothers to return to their hometown and live incognito and live in peace, but the Wang brothers were unwilling to accept Zhou Bo's grievances, not only refused to leave, but also insisted on persuading Zhou Bo to sue the emperor and seek justice.

So, Zhou Bo came to the Yushitai and beat the drum to sound the grievances.

Liu Zhennan didn't expect him to dare to come to sue, and in anger, he immediately went to find Zong Chuke.

Zong Chuke secretly ordered his henchmen to order the officials in charge of the Yushi Observatory to be punished privately. Yu Shitai received the order, did not hesitate to use fire dragons and other tortures, beat Zhou Bo back to life, wrote a confession, took advantage of his fainting and pressed his finger to press the handprint, and sent him to prison, scheduled to be executed in the middle of the night three days later.
