Chapter 502: The End of Death (Part II)
Hao Liangcai said angrily: "That kid knows about the two of us, and he has avoided me recently for fear of getting into trouble." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Wu Side put the wine glass in his hand and said: "Coward, even if I am blind and make a friend like him, we will not go to this guy in the future, and we will break off friendship with him." Hao Liangcai also said fiercely: "I think so too, break off friendship with this guy, what kind of thing is he, when he is good, he is long and short, and now it is like this." ”
Wu Side said angrily: "Only now do I know what it means to see the truth in adversity." The two of them were talking about this in the private room on the second floor. I only heard someone coming upstairs noisily, it seemed that there were still a lot of people, only the footsteps were heard, Wu Side said to his subordinates: "What's going on, go out and see." The subordinates were about to push the door out to check, only to see that someone had opened the door and came in, Wu Side was about to get angry, and saw that there were several heavily armed officers and soldiers who came in, he suddenly secretly said in his heart that it was not good, Hao Liangcai on the side still didn't know what the situation was, got up and said angrily: "Who of you doesn't know that grandpa is drinking here?" ”
The leading officers and soldiers ignored him, and just asked loudly, "Who is Wu Side here?" Everyone looked at Wu Side, and Wu Side immediately said forcefully: "The master is Wu Side, who of you dares to trespass in without permission, don't die?" The leading officer snorted coldly and said very calmly: "Boy, you know that you have committed a heinous crime, lock me up and take it away!" When a group of officers and soldiers heard this, they came up and took him away with his hands tied behind his back.
Hao Liangcai opened his mouth wide and didn't react for a long time, then the leading officer and soldier walked up to him with a smile and asked, "Presumably you are Hao Liangcai, right?" Hao Liangcai heard him call his name, as if he had been named by Lord Yama, and said in a daze: "Who are you, how do you know my name?" The official army smiled and said: "Lao Tzu is the cavalry captain of the camp north of the city, and he was ordered to come to arrest you." Then he turned back to his subordinates and said, "This one is also tied up for me, and there is another one named Liu Xi?" Where is he? ”
Wu Side struggled restlessly all the way, and scolded at the officer: "Boy, do you know who grandpa is? How dare you arrest me? My father is a squire of the Criminal Department, and I tell you that you are all dead today. The officer didn't pay attention to him, but said lightly: "Fortunately, Lao Tzu doesn't know this grandson, otherwise he would definitely be implicated and unlucky." Wu Side was a little dumbfounded when he heard this, he knew what he had done, and his heart was empty.
He and Hao Liangcai were driven into the prisoner car and sent all the way to the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses, and came to the Yecheng Taishou Mansion, where the head of the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the Yecheng Taishou were already interrogating Liu Xi inside. The two of them came in and saw Liu Xi kneeling on the ground kowtowing and begging for mercy, Wu Side scolded him loudly: "You, you dare to falsely accuse your grandfather, do you believe that Lao Tzu killed you?" When Liu Xi heard this, he looked back and saw that it was the two of them, so he cried with the chief judge Taishou and the director of the Soldiers and Horses Division: "Old man, the little one is really wronged. The villain really didn't know what the two of them were doing in Todai Temple, and they didn't participate, and the villain was at home at ease these days, and I have someone to testify to. ”
Wu Side scolded loudly: "Shut up, you splash! His voice was obviously much higher than Liu Xi's, but Taishou patted Tang Mu in the hall and pointed at his nose and scolded: "Shut up, you thing that doesn't know how to repent when you die, you actually roared in the court, you really despise this official." "This Taishou hates these sons of princes and nobles on weekdays, they cause trouble for themselves in the local area, and they are still arrogant when they arrive at the Yamen, just like the uncle, the key is that Taishou himself often loses his smile, and the anger he has accumulated all year round can be imagined.
But today is different, because although he knows that Wu Side is the son of Wu Sansi and is also a high-ranking official, but it is the people of the Guogong Mansion who come to sue him, it is estimated that even if his own father goes out, it will be difficult to recover, who is Gao Huan? The lord of the world, if you provoke him, even the king of heaven, Lao Tzu will not be able to save you. So at this moment, Taishou was very happy that he could pretend to be angry with himself, so he said to the officer: "Come on, drag these two down for me, and dress up forty first." After receiving the order, the officials pounced like wolves and dragged Wu Side and Hao Liangcai down.
In the back hall, Murong Shaozong and Gao Longzhi were very satisfied with Taishou's dismount, and they all picked up their teacups and drank tea with peace of mind. Hao Liangcai shouted while being beaten: "My lord, spare your life, it was Wu Side who despised the court, and it has nothing to do with me, why did you beat me?" Yes! A scream remembered. Wu Side gritted his teeth and insisted, saying in his heart that you wait for my father to come, and then I want you all to die well! I hated it in my heart.
Wu Sansi was still on duty in the middle hall, and when he went out today, he saw magpies chirping in front of his house, and he was very happy and said that there was any joy today? He Shangshu was discussing court affairs together, and the official outside came in to report: "Is Wu Shilang here?" Wu Sansi hurriedly turned his head and said, "This official is here, what is the matter with you?" He thought that Gao Huan's cabinet had sent someone to summon him, but who knew that the official said: "Oh, fifty percent of the soldiers and horses and the Yecheng Taishou Mansion sent someone to say that your son has committed the great crime of defrauding the monarch and is being punished at the moment." ”
As soon as these words came out, Wu Sansi chuckled in his heart, and almost fainted in front of him, at this time, his eldest son, Wu Siwen, who was a spokesman in the Yushitai, also hurried over, and happened to see this scene, and immediately said: "Father, let's go and see first, what is going on and ask where to know, what if it is a mistake?" Wu Sansi immediately came to his senses when he heard this, and immediately said to Cui Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department: "Please allow the official to take leave, this matter is very important to the reputation of the official." Cui Yan then also said: "It's okay for Master Wu to deal with family affairs first. ”
Wu Sansi then took Wu Siwen and the two of them to the Taishou Mansion on a sedan chair and a horse on horseback with a group of followers. Wu Sansi was polite to him, so he arched his hand and said, "Why did Lord Liu come here too?" Who knew that Liu Shuangquan actually ignored him, snorted coldly and went directly to the government office. Wu San Sixin said that this person is also crazy today? How dare you do this to me, what attitude? didn't think much about it, and immediately said to Wu Siwen: "Let's go, hurry up and go in to see what's going on." ”
Taishou and the head of the Wucheng Terracotta Division did not expect that it would be so lively today, and Hao Qingdu of the Inspection Department can only be regarded as a small sesame official, because at this moment there are two big officials in the hall, the squire of the Criminal Department and the secretary of the Inner House, but the Taishou and the head of the Terracotta Division know that they are happy to support it, the key is that at this moment, there are two nobles in the back hall, the general Murong Shaozong and the minister of the Zhige, Luyang Hou Gaolongzhi, and the status of these two people is much higher than a squire.
Wu Sansi said very unceremoniously: "This official is also your commander, and he didn't even give a seat?" And why did you order the beating of the suspect before the trial began? Do you still have Wang Fa in your eyes, don't forget that this official is a squire of the Criminal Department, in charge of criminal and prison proceedings across the country. Taishou got up and said: "The lower official is acting on orders, there is no upper and lower division above the public court, only the position of the chief judge, and the adults are invited to listen to the court, and Wu Side and Hao Liangcai roared that the public court despised the majesty of the official, so they beat him."
