Chapter 21: Embattled

After informing his father, Li Fengwu withdrew a lot of silver and small yellow croaker from the account office, and took Li Bo out of Li's house.

Li Laosan usually accompanies Li Bo in social interactions, so Li Fengwu quickly knew who should move around.

Originally, the life case in Jiankang City should have been in charge of the Shangyuan County Ya attached to the Fuzhi, but I didn't expect Huanyue to cross the Shangyuan County Ya and go directly to the Fu Ya to report to the official and take care of it.

Shangyuan County no longer needs to move around.

Jiankang Mansion is located at the junction of Huainan West Road, Huainan East Road and Jiangnan West Road, but it is not under the jurisdiction of one of them, but directly under the central government, so it is useless for the officials of the Criminal Prison Department to move around.

In fact, Jiankang, as the core area of the front line of the Southern Song Dynasty's anti-Jin war, generally does not have only one prefect in the town, most of the time it is known by the Xuanfu envoy of Jiangnan East Road, but this time it is Zhu Wenxiu who knows all the affairs of the prime minister of Jiankang Mansion, so the Xuanfu envoy of Jiangnan East Road is no longer feasible.

Jiankang prefect Zhu Wenxiu doesn't have to go, it's boring to go, and Yang Shijie is sentenced to not have to go, this girl can't wait for the Li family to be unlucky, and Xu Yu is not responsible for litigation and prison, and the only one who can move around is the official Zhao Hong.

However, at this time, it was the time to go to work, and in ancient times, it was called Ying Mao, in fact, the saying of commuting to work has appeared in the two Song Dynasty, but Ying Mao is more common.

Jiankang Mansion is not far from the Wenxuan Wang Temple, after Jianyan crossed to the south, the original Shengzhou Mansion was changed to the Southern Song Dynasty Palace, in the same year, the original transfer of the Yamen was used as the Jiankang Mansion, and the Zhongqin Building in the Mansion was the office of the officials of the Jiankang Mansion.

Li Fengwu asked Li Bo to cast a famous assassination, and waited for almost an hour in Zhongqin Building, and it was already time to release the government, so that the little official came to inform him and asked him to go to Jinxiu Hall to meet.

Zhao Hong is more than forty years old, with a long beard on his face and a thin figure, his eyes flashing with worldly cunning, and a smile without warmth bloomed on his face after seeing Li Fengwu: "What's the matter with the little officials of the Li family?" ”

Li Fengwu sang a chorus, and after sitting on the next chair, he didn't speak, but just glanced left and right first.

Zhao Hong waved his hand and motioned for the left and right people to retreat.

Li Fengwu was actually a little nervous in his heart, your sister, this is the official of Jiankang Mansion, and in later generations, he is also the deputy mayor level of a municipality directly under the central government, but he is the biggest official he has ever seen in his two lives.

But at this time, he couldn't help but be nervous, so he had to calm down, and said slowly: "I don't know if Mr. knows about the murder that happened in my Li family this morning?" ”

According to the folk practice of the Southern Song Dynasty, he should be called Zhao Tuiguan, but Li Fengwu still lowered his profile and called him Mr. In fact, according to Li Fengwu's cognition, some people began to call the officials adults in the late Song Dynasty, but he is still not sure about it, and he does not dare to call it so rashly, in case of an oolong, it will be embarrassing, because in the Tang Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty, adults are only the names of children to their fathers.

Zhao Hong took a sip of tea and nodded.

Li Fengwu arched his hand and said: "The late life took the liberty to visit only because my mother was framed and imprisoned, Mr. Su Wen is an official and upright, and I hope to be able to do a little bit in this matter, and the Li family should remember the great grace." ”

Li Bo was accustomed to wind and rain, so he quietly took out a brocade bag from his arms and quietly placed it on the desktop on Zhao Hong's right hand side.

Zhao Hong glanced at the brocade bag, his eyes jumped imperceptibly, and he estimated it in his heart, good guy, this little official of the Li family is really generous, if it is all small yellow croaker, there must be five!

It's a pity that this little yellow croaker is hot.

Zhao Hong did not touch the brocade bag, but continued to taste tea, and the atmosphere in the hall became tense for a while.

After a long time, Zhao Hong estimated that the atmosphere was enough, and then Shi Shiran said: "This case should have been handed over to the Shangyuan County Government, but such a major event happened as soon as Zhu Fuzun took office, and he had already instructed the official to strictly investigate and return the deceased to a fair." ”

In fact, Zhao Hong is scolding his mother in his heart, go to your sister's Zhu Wenxiu, don't think that Lao Tzu doesn't know what your idea is, ordinary people in Jiankang don't know, I Zhao Hong doesn't know, that Zhang Yousu is the niece of Zhang Jun, the envoy of Jianghuai Xuanfu in the current dynasty, you Zhu Wenxiu want to stumble on Zhang Jun, and you don't need to use me Zhao Hong as a gunman, this matter should have been sentenced to Yang Shijie by Zhu Wenxiu and Jiankang Tong, the prefect of Jiankang, I am just a pusher, and if I really want to sentence her to be beheaded, I can't see any hope for my future career.

How could Li Fengwu not know these scenes, and immediately complimented: "Mr. is as wise as a torch, he will definitely be able to find out his mother's grievances, and he will thank him here." ”

Zhao Hong groaned for a while, glanced around cautiously, and suddenly lowered his voice and said: "The Li family's petty official, this case is indeed in charge of the official, but the mansion and the don't drive are staring very closely, and the official can only do his best, the most important point is to see if Wang Zhutou can find out the real culprit, the top priority, you should quickly find the best lawyer in Jiankang." ”

One hand has quietly moved the brocade bag into his sleeve.

Li Fengwu stood up and said, "Everything is Mr. Lao." ”

Coming out of the mansion, Li Fengwu's face was extremely ugly, and Li Bo asked puzzledly: "Little official, Zhao Tuiguan has already received our gold bars, why are you still not at ease?" ”

Li Fengwu glanced back at the magnificent mansion, this is really a place to eat people, sighed and said: "There is not much hope, Zhao Hong's sentence 'Fuzun and don't drive are watching very closely' is telling me that although he hosted this case, the final verdict is more or less affected by these two people, he can only do his best impartially, and it is in vain to find out the real culprit." ”

After leaving the Jiankang Mansion, Li Fengwu kept going, and under the introduction of Li Bo, he walked around the various officials in charge of the government prison, which is very good, after all, it is just a matter of turning a blind eye, why not take the silver.

Dozens of taels of silver were spent to ensure that Sanniang would not suffer in prison, and even invited Lang Zhong to check Sanniang's pulse, Li Fengwu was relieved.

Thinking about Zhao Hong's last words, Li Fengwu suddenly woke up, Zhao Hong said that his top priority was to find a lawyer, and this could not be untargeted, and it must have something to say.

Thinking of this, Li Fengwu immediately asked Li Bo: "Li Bo, what are the best lawyers in Jiankang Mansion?" ”

Li Boluo thought for a while and said: "Gu Qingcheng in the east of the city, Ma Yuan in the west of the city, Lotus Dai Jiu in the south of the city, Wen Qilai, the evil lawyer in the north of the city, and Xie Zhongcai on the bank of the Qinhuai River, these five people are the five most famous lawyers in Jiankang. ”

Li Fengwu understands the importance of the lawyer in the trial of the case too well, without him, under the influence of "The Judge of the Dead" and "The Nine Sesame Officials", Chen Mengji's iron-mouthed judgment of the case is simply amazing.

It's just that what makes Li Fengwu angry is that Ma Yuan is sick in bed, Xie Zhongcai closed the door to thank the guests, and Dai Jiu bluntly said that he had accepted the entrustment of Zhuang Bawa's family...... Then find Gu Qingcheng.

Gu Qingcheng saw Li Fengwu, but he excused himself from accepting the commission, and in the end, perhaps for the sake of the ingot of silver, he said that it was not that he didn't want to accept it, but that someone had informed all the well-known lawyers in Jiankang City this morning that he was not allowed to accept the entrustment of the Li family.

As for who this person was, Gu Qingcheng didn't dare to say if he was killed, but he just kindly reminded Li Fengwu that who could make all the sword and pen lawyers obey his command in Jiankang City?

Out of the Gu Mansion, Li Fengwu slammed his fist on the dead tree next to him, gritted his teeth and said: "Good you Hexi Liu family, good you Liu Qing dye!" ”

There are not many people who can make all the sword and pen lawyers in Jiankang bow down, but the only one who has a grudge against the Li family is the famous Liu Qingran, who has great influence in the Shilin circle!

Li Fengwu saw a terrible net.

Some people killed Zhuang Bawa, some people transported the body to Sanniang's room, some people reported the case, some people framed Sanniang and Zhuang Bawa for having an affair, and some people cut off the way of lawyers...... interlocking, all of this is to make the Li family sit and wait for death in this case.

What a terrible plan, I really don't know how they came together.

Li Bo looked at the blood marks on Li Fengwu's hands, and asked cautiously: "Little official, do you still go to find the evil lawyer Wen Qilai?" ”

Li Fengwu turned around and went back to the Li Mansion resolutely, "There's no need." ”
