The next day, early in the morning, Zhang Ru let more than 1,000 people follow him to the yamen of the prefect of Hangzhou, and after entering the cell, he directly entered the torture room. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ouyang Duanhong was tortured by Meng Fu a lot, and the injuries on his body were only scabbed over by external skin injuries, and the internal injuries were not very good. After seeing Zhang Ru, he instantly understood the whole story.

It seems that the person who tortured him yesterday was not to ask him about the crime, but to ask him who was behind it.

Closing his eyes and pretending not to see Zhang Ru come in, Ouyang Duanhong made up his mind not to say anything.

But to his surprise, after Zhang Ru entered the torture room, he just quietly moved a chair and sat in front of him, without asking him, until he opened his eyes, he found that Zhang Ru had left.

He didn't understand why this Guogong, who had an atmosphere similar to the one in the portrait, came out like this, but a sense of foreboding lingered in his heart.

A few days passed quickly, and Ouyang Duanhong found that the person who came for interrogation had changed, no longer the young man with a gloomy face, but a middle-aged man with an honest appearance. Of course, this middle-aged man can only be a young man in front of him.

This middle-aged man's temper was obviously much better than that of the young man, and every time he came, he talked about some short things in the family, and he didn't mention who the person behind him was, let alone say that he harbored Qin criminals in Green Willow Villa.

The middle-aged man is very patient, and after every conversation, he will find a reason, saying that he wants to go home to accompany his daughter-in-law, and if his grandfather or someone else comes, please be sure not to tell his whereabouts.

After a few days of getting along, Ouyang Duanhong felt good about Fan Tong, so he naturally agreed.

What he didn't know was that countless versions of gossip were flying all over the sky outside, and the entire Hangzhou Mansion was shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere.

"Have you heard that Duke Dingguo personally interrogated the owner of Ouyang Village of Green Willow Villa, as if he was asking about a shocking case!"

"What's the shocking case?"

"It is said that the owner of Ouyang Zhuang is secretly hiding weapons and intends to rebel, and the entire Jiangnan officialdom now knows about it, and the political envoy Lord Wu was ordered to think about it, and according to the inspector, Lord Zu heard that he was going to be removed!"

"How did you know about such a confidential matter?"

"My brother was on an errand in the Yamen, and he told me when he came back. I heard that when the owner of Ouyang Zhuang was carried into the cell, there was no good meat on his body. ”

"Maybe it's a trick."

"The ghost knows, the people of this court do things, and the people of the official family do things, where will we let the people of Shengdou know."

In a small wine restaurant, there are only three or five diners, and the two people sitting by the window are happily talking about taboo topics.

There was a man wearing a hat sitting in the doorway, and from the standing position, he could only see his beard, but not his face.

The man listened attentively to the two people who didn't know what they didn't know, and they didn't care about it on the surface, but their ears were pricked up.

He listened to the conversation between the two of them without missing a trace.

And in other places, all kinds of theories are circulating everywhere.

Some people say that it was the second son of Xu of the Duke of Wei who fell in love with the woman of Dingguo Gong and intended to flirt, and was finally slapped by Dingguo Gong in public.

The people who talk about this kind of statement are basically merchants who can go out, and they have heard the rumors, and when they come back, they will naturally talk to others with a lot of color.

Anyway, the imperial court will not be too demanding, they just talk about it after dinner, and even if Dingguo Gong is small-minded, he will not arrest people who spread rumors on a large scale.

Some people also say that it was Lord Wu Shou'i, the political envoy of Zhejiang, who was greedy for ink and silver money, sold the disaster relief money, and was caught by Dingguo Gong, so Lord Wu had to fight to the death.

Some people even say that according to the inspection of the envoy, the Lord is above the Wei State Mansion, and he is a veritable emperor of the Jiangnan River, so as soon as the Duke of Dingguo comes, Lord Zu will determine the life of the Duke of Guo.

Tu Mi naturally couldn't escape the shackles of rumors, some people said that he secretly trained 30,000 private soldiers with the intention of rebelling. What do you say, Ouyang Duanhong, the person from Green Willow Villa, is also Tu Mi's person, and he also said that Tu Mi's private army has killed countless people, and he is a typical ruffian.

Anyway, all kinds of messages are flying all over the sky, and each version has three or four statements, and each statement seems to be well-founded after being processed by some bad literati.

The others didn't react, but Tu Mi was so frightened that he went to Zhang Ru to explain as soon as possible, and even said that he was willing to hand over the military talisman arrows, saying that he was unwilling to bear this injustice.

Zhang Ru smiled and comforted him at the time, and said Don't be afraid, the clear ones are self-turbid, and the turbidity is self-turbid, and it is normal for the common people to ask for some talking points every day, don't go to your heart. It is more important than anything else that my father can trust you.

At the same time, he also vaguely said that if you can come up with some evidence of Zu Yitao or Wu Shouhui, maybe my father can make you promoted and make a fortune.

It's just that Tu Mi didn't answer, and I don't know what he thought in his heart.

"Childe, this matter is a little unusual, although there are many versions in the market, but there are still people who suspect that you are Childe, what should I do now?" It was a fat man in a red robe who spoke, and the person he respectfully faced was Zhang Ru's old acquaintance, Xu Li's second son, Xu Huaiyuan.

Xu Huaiyuan pointed to a small scar on his face and said, "I explained when I came to Hangzhou that you can choose to follow or leave." Now that you've made your decision, there's no turning back.

This scar on my face was caused by Zhang Wenxuan, and I vowed to let his family die.

He knows what if I'm making trouble behind my back, he doesn't have any real evidence, what can he do to me! ”

Listening to Xu Huaiyuan's tone, he was still full of confidence.

It's no wonder that he is also the second son of the Duke of Wei, and he made a lot of trouble when Zhang Ru opened the sea ban. Xu Li's eldest son died young, and his grandson couldn't come out to make friends with these people for the time being, so the second son's circle of friends was naturally very extensive.

The fat man in the red robe said repeatedly: "Childe is right, Childe is right." But it's not a matter for us to sit back and wait for death, then Ouyang Duanhong is from the rivers and lakes, and the family has been arrested, and no one can guarantee that he won't say anything. ”

Xu Huaiyuan stood up and scolded angrily: "Idiot! If Ouyang really said something, then Zhang Wenxuan wouldn't have let out so much noise! Let the people below pay attention and not show any horses' feet. ”

The fat man is sweating on his forehead, this young man is even more difficult to serve than the one in Nanjing, anyway, serving him, the fat man is worried every time.

Xu Huaiyuan covered his face and muttered: "Zhang Wenxuan, Zhang Wenxuan, this time, I will never die with you!" (To be continued.) )
