Guo Wei's heartbeat increased slightly, and he stared closely into Hou Yi's eyes, hoping to read what he meant. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info deputy envoy Wang Zuo originally gave Hou Yi the nickname "Yellow Sparrow", but this metaphor said that he was like a vicious yellow finch hiding in a hidden place, waiting for an opportunity to peck off the body of the praying mantis......

Guo Wei is also funny when he thinks about it, but this nickname is a bit opposite to his nickname "Guo Queer".

Hou Yi's expression remained unchanged, he first took two steps back, and then resumed a polite distance from Guo Wei, and at the same time looked at each other, the two of them were actually next to the dismounted stone at the forbidden gate of this palace, and they confronted each other.

Guo Wei knows that people are in officialdom and even in the world, and whenever they hear a surprise word, they must not have any abnormal reactions. Because the person who said this is hoping that your heart will panic, and then you will be able to hit it continuously. Eventually, you will gradually get into the way, and he will lead you to words and deeds that are unfavorable to you and useful to you.

"Privy," Hou Yi, who was attacking, of course, would not avoid the other party's gaze, "What are you doing standing at the gate of this palace?" The two of us have gray hair and are a lot older, and this kind of posture teaches Wang Zuo to see it, it is really like the "yellow finch and cloud magpie", the two birds are fighting in general, I'm afraid it is not a system, right? ”

"In that case, let's talk as we go." Guo Wei nodded.

The Privy Council and Zhongshu Province were within the palace ban, and Guo Wei had just gone out of the gate in order to send Feng Dao out, and Hou Yi asked rhetorically, "Oh? Isn't Guo Shumi going back to the official office? ”

Guo Wei knew that he had to make things clear today, so he had to reply: "Oh...... I was just going to Dali Temple, and I had to supervise some matters that needed to be assisted. ”

"In that case, the Privy Counsellor will ...... first" Hou Yi respectfully spread his right arm and made a gesture.

Guo Wei nodded, and then got on the horse first, Kaifeng Mansion and Dali Temple were originally on the way, and the two of them rode slowly side by side, and their entourages followed far behind, not close to the front......

"The so-called suspicious person just now, do you have a clue about it?"

Guo Wei was only afraid of riding to Dali Temple early, so he tried to slow down as much as possible, and Hou Yi also controlled the speed at this time, and even pressed slower than himself.

"I don't have a bun on my head, but I am definitely not a monk, I actually think that this kind of appearance is somewhat similar to the legendary Nakui Star Envoy."

"Oh?" Guo Wei sneered, "I've never seen such a person in my mansion, could it be that Duke Hou wants to bring someone from Kaifeng Mansion to my mansion to inspect it?" ”

"Hey...... How dare you...... If Kaifeng Mansion does not have an order, where does it have the right to disturb the Privy Council? Hou Yi hurriedly shook his hands, "But...... It would be different if you submitted this situation to Wu Desi......"

After all, patience has a limit, and it can't be endured any longer, Guo Wei finally pulled the reins and slammed the horse to stop. The other hand pointed at the nose of the opposite person with a horsewhip.

"Hou Yi, don't forget your suspicions before the Meridian Valley Battle last year, and you reported to the Privy Council at the beginning of last month, but the Privy Council did not approve it, let alone issue the Chinese Book to the province!"

Hou Yi understood that Guo Wei was going to talk about his suspicion of being in Shu at the beginning.

"Suspicion? Whether it's true or not, the battle of Meridian Valley has long been over. Now in the northwest is Wang Jingchong, but I am here in Kaifeng Mansion. I gave you Shi Taishi (Shi Hongzhao) so many benefits, Wu Desi will not know? Li Ye, why doesn't he care about me? It's just because he can't offend me, Hou Yi. ”

After thinking about it, Guo Weisi knew that what Hou Yi said was indeed right......

"What are you threatening me with what you just said?" Guo Wei sneered, "I, Guo, have a clear conscience, but I'm afraid that there is no reason to comply." ”

Hou Yi was silent for a moment, and suddenly jumped off his horse.

"Brother Wen Zhong, Hou Yi is not coerced for some reason, but he really has something important to ask for!" Hou Yi said this solemnly, and then took a long look.

When Guo Wei heard this, he first had a sign, and then his heart was wide, he saw that Dali Temple was not far away, and he understood that Hou Yi knew that the place was about to arrive just now, so he had to hurry up and put things in place.

"Say it and listen to it, Lu Guogong ......"

Hou Yi sighed: "Brother Wen Zhong, have you heard that there is a third child among the next few dogs, and he got married last month?" ”

Guo Wei nodded again and again: "I know, it is rumored all over the city that the Luoyang Hou family is a low-key person, and they have found a state Sima's daughter as a daughter-in-law." ”

Hou Yi smiled bitterly: "Everyone in the world is so "exculpated", but I don't know that I have this family because there is a smart and capable Zhao Dalang named Zhao Pu in his family, who was a subordinate when he was in Fengxiang. I am like a father and son with this person, but this time the situation was dangerous before returning to Beijing, but I couldn't call him away in time, and now I regret it! ”

Seeing that Guo Wei nodded slightly, he continued: "This person was sent to Yongxing by me with a letter of recommendation, but now that Zhao Siwan has rebelled, he has not been heard from since. ”

Guo Wei seemed to understand what he meant: "Do you want me to tell the generals in the northwest to help find this person in the chaos, but right?" ”

Not only that, this Zhao Dalang is not a brainless person, he is very tenacious, and he has no obstacle to his life. However, in order to save his life in danger, he may do something inappropriate, and he wants to ask Brother Wen Zhong to take care of him when he turns back and leads the army to the west. ”

Guo Wei immediately understood what he meant, this kid from the Zhao family went to Yongxing, which was almost equivalent to entering the tiger's den and wolf's den, and when he had to do so in a crisis, he might be coerced. Therefore, Hou Yi wanted to ask him to win when he went west, and he would not attribute Zhao Pu to those who rebelled against the thief army.

"Hou Gong's heart is indeed worthy of forgiveness." Guo Wei remembered his good intentions for Guo Rong all the way, and couldn't help but feel empathy and compassion for Hou Yi, "You can rest assured, since this Zhao Dalang is smart, he won't really do anything evil for the tiger, and when the time comes, I will definitely bring him back to Bianliang and personally send him to you and your father-in-law." ”

"It's really a great grace to say thank you," Hou Yi was about to kneel on one knee with his hands clenched into fists, and Guo Wei hurriedly helped him up.

Hou Yi squinted and speculated, and said: "I will definitely take care of the matter of the envoy of the Dengzhou Festival and the history of the state assassination, Liu Yanseng and Hu Luanzhi will first be transferred from the Wude Division to the prison of the Criminal Department, and then I will send someone to sign a document to the Criminal Department to inform them: Since the Second Division has the participation of the Criminal Department in the review, of course it is inconvenient for the suspect to be detained in the Criminal Department, but should be mentioned in the prison of Kaifeng Mansion." ”

Guo Wei thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Hou Yi stepped on his horse again: "Also, if Guo Shumi takes command of the Western Expedition in the future, then the lower officials will definitely pay close attention to the public security situation in the entire Bianliang and will never let anyone make trouble!" ”

Guo Wei clenched his fists: "Guo will also firmly remember the name of Zhao Pu, and we will make a decision!" ”

After Guo Wei walked with him to the gate of Dali Temple to say goodbye, he watched him go away, remembering that he and he were both people who cared for the younger generations, and he couldn't help but feel something in his heart again.

He turned his horse's head again, thinking that this person was not a simple person, of course Guo Wei still felt that he should be wary of it.

………………………………………………………………………………

Not far to the west of the palace of the imperial city of Kaifeng, it is the institution set up by the imperial court to punish the greedy beetles - Wude Division.

Historically, such institutions are not uncommon, and when the ruler is relatively lenient, it becomes an ordinary anti-corruption agency – similar to the Imperial City Division of the Northern Song Dynasty;

However, if this place is manipulated by people who are in power, or if the monarch is cruel and vicious, then there is no difference between this place and the court where Lai Junchen and Suo Yuanli are in charge.

The office of this institution is a simple and elegant little courtyard, and no one passing by, or even entering this place, will feel that it is special compared to other places.

Only by entering the Martial Arts Prison can people really get a glimpse of its true appearance, but the Martial Arts Prison is not located in the office, but shares a courtyard with the Criminal Department Prison. About three-quarters of the cells on the left side of the main prison of the Criminal Department are used by the Criminal Department, and the two small rows on the right are assigned to Wu Desi to hold suspects.

There is no difference in the size and regulation of each cell, but the walls are a little different, the prison of the Criminal Department is a gray wall, and the Wudesi is a pure black wall.

Liu Yanseng has been locked up on the black side for nearly a month.

Whenever Hu Luan's person was dragged to the cubicle where torture was used to extract confessions, Liu Yanseng would be nervous and frightened. At first, he was afraid that Hu Luan would not be able to withstand the torture and cooperate with Li Ye and his gang to forge documents and frame himself, but after a few days, he changed a little.

He knew that Hu Luan would not do unrighteous things, so he developed more and more compassion. At this time, Liu Yanseng's nervousness was unbearable for Hu Luan's pain.

Hu Luan was finally pulled back again.

Liu Yanseng thought that today was the old-fashioned "breathlessness" - the so-called breathlessness was created by Suo Yuanli in the Wu Zhou Dynasty, that is, a piece of paper was pasted on the face door of the prisoner, and then a mouthful of water was sprayed to wet it, so the prisoner's mouth and nose were sealed and could not breathe, and the confessor was in control of proportion, which made people suffer from depression.

However, today's Liu Yanseng found that Hu Luan's hands were dripping with blood, and if you look closely, you can see that a little finger has been cut off!

"Zi Quangong, I've made you suffer again, this class of talents has actually begun to mutilate people!" Liu Yanseng understood that the reason why he was not tortured too much and only received a little whip was because the proposal to stay in the capital was approved by many ministers who cared for his life after all, and Li Ye was still afraid in his heart, but as long as Hu Luan finally gave in, and Li Ye was convicted of his crimes, then the next nightmare would be his turn............

"Thief!" Seeing that Hu Luanzhi had collapsed and couldn't speak, Liu Yanseng couldn't help but raise his throat and scold. "Li Ye, you cool official! Harmful spirits! ”

was scolding happily, suddenly the door of the cell opened, and a thin official in a purple official uniform entered, Liu Yanseng saw this person with a smile on his face, but it was Su Fengji.

"Is it Su Xianggong?" Liu Yanseng snorted coldly, "What did you do when you went to the territory of Wu Desi?" I also want to taste the taste of this place. ”

"Less mouthed Liu Yanseng," Su Fengji checked the holy decree in his hand, "Since this decree was saved by my middle book, I simply sent it to you personally." He handed it to Liu Yanseng.

"See for yourself, I'm too lazy to read it."

Liu Yanseng took the will and looked at it a few times, and hurriedly rolled it up respectfully and put it on the ground, and then helped Hu Luan to come over and kowtow together to thank him.

"The holy decree says that you want to turn away, where do you go?" Liu Yanseng asked with a long sigh of relief.

Su Fengji sneered: "The black prison has been changed to a gray prison, and I am afraid that it will not be much better if it is separated by a wall." Su Fengji's meaning is very clear, in the hands of Su Yuqi, the servant of the Criminal Department, Liu Yanseng may not be comfortable.

The warden next to him suddenly interjected: "Su Xianggong, the lower official has just approved Kaifeng Yin's letter, and Liu Yanseng and Hu Luan are going to be transferred to the Kaifeng Mansion Prison." ”

"What did you say?" Su Fengji couldn't close his mouth.

Liu Yanseng laughed: "See if there is Su Xiang? You are the god of peeping at the wind, and Lao Tzu is the tiger of the afternoon! Even if your old mouse nibbles my cat a few more bites, it will eventually be taken away by the cat in the future! ”
