"Absolutely." Fang Cai'er said loudly: "Come on, take the blade left by the assassin and show it to Lord Yue." ”

After speaking, he smiled at Yue Su, with a mocking hint in his smile, "Lord Yue, even if we have evidence that the Duke of Qianguo is plotting to assassinate my father, what is the use?" Could it be that adults still dare to cure the sin of the old thief? ”

Yue Su was expressionless, and said calmly: "This mansion has always enforced the law like a mountain, if it can really be determined that it was Grandpa Mu who assassinated Ling Zun, he will definitely play the court according to the book and fight for an explanation for you." It's really not good, and the government would rather give up the black veil. ”

"With Lord Yue's words, my Abba can also be blind when he has a spirit in the sky. I salute the adults. "Miao people have always been bold, and Fang Caier's surname is also very arrogant, and she doesn't have many hearts. When Yue Su said this, she believed it. However, Yue Su's words are not estimated to prevaricate.

Yue Su raised his glass and drank the wine in the cup with her, and soon, a Miao man brought over three steel knives. Fang Cai'er handed Yue Su a handful, Yue Su looked at the blade of the knife, and sure enough, it was engraved with the words "Daming Yunnan General Military Mansion".

Slowly putting the knife on the table, Yue Su said lightly: "Fang Tusi, the second public case I am here for is related to this knife. Do you think that the Duke of Qianguo sent someone to assassinate your father, so he was determined to take revenge, and sent someone to Kunming to assassinate him. ”

Liu Tai came back with Yue Su, and he hadn't taken the time to tell Fang Cai'er about it, but now that Yue Su brought it up in person, Fang Cai'er and Gou Yao were both surprised. Gou Yao didn't think that the imperial court suddenly sent troops to encircle and suppress it, it was very likely that Fang Cai'er secretly sent someone to assassinate Mu Qiyuan, otherwise, how could he suddenly raise a division. When Bai Yue came over, he and Liu Tai asked Fang Cai'er, and Fang Cai'er denied it, looking at his expression, he was not lying, so he believed it.

Now that Yue Su mentioned it again, Gou Yao turned his head to look at Fang Cai'er, wanting to see how she answered, could it be that this girl was lying during the day? You must know that the assassination of the Duke of Qianguo is a monstrous event, and from Yue Su's mouth, it should be true.

"Your Excellency." Fang Cai'er hugged her fist at Yue Su and said solemnly: "When Abba was mourning, I did think about sending someone to assassinate the Duke of Qianguo, but after the persuasion of the two uncles and the analysis of the pros and cons, for the sake of the clan, I finally decided not to do it for the time being and wait for the opportunity." My lord said that I sent someone to assassinate the Duke of Qianguo, and I can swear to heaven that there is absolutely no such thing. ”

While Fang Cai'er was talking, Yue Su kept staring at her expression, seeing that she was righteous and impassioned, and it didn't seem like she was lying. Yue Su nodded and said, "Could it be that someone wants to avenge the old Tusi and act privately to assassinate the Duke of Qianguo in Kunming." ”

Fang Cai'er shook her head and said, "Today, I have gathered my subordinates, and all the men have been named according to the roster, and there is no one less. ”

"I also believe that it is not you." Yue Su suddenly said this. Then he said: "You Chuancheng's soldiers and horses are outside the village, it is not difficult to send him, but you must always give an explanation to the Duke of Qianguo." If you believe this official, please follow me back to the government, I will definitely return your innocence, and save Sanmiao from suffering unjustified disasters. ”

The reason why Yue Su believes in Fang Cai'er is also reasonable. The mansion of the Duke of Qianguo is heavily guarded, although it is not as good as the palace, it will not be too inferior. Going in to assassinate the Duke of Qianguo, no matter whether it is successful or not, there is no entry or exit, and non-dead soldiers dare not go.

The assassination of Qianguo Gong is equivalent to suicide, and the person who left himself has long been prepared that he will not survive, and once he misses, he will definitely commit suicide, how can he easily confess after being captured. The person who can confess the mastermind probably does not have the courage to enter the national mansion to assassinate. So, it's definitely a flaw.

Yue Su was also a person who had watched "The Legend of Deer and Ding" in his previous life, and the public case in front of him was too similar to the plot of Mu Wangfu's blame for King Pingxi, and it was too fake. It may be possible to fool the ancients, but it is simply delusional to hide from Yue Su, who has already lived a lifetime.

After listening to Yue Su's words, Fang Cai'er didn't know how to answer for a while. Following Yue Su, it is very likely that the sheep will enter the tiger's mouth, and if you don't follow, the soldiers and horses of the court will be in front of you. She couldn't make up her mind where to go.

At this time, it was Liu Tai who said: "Cai'er, Lord Yue is righteous and awe-inspiring, I believe he will be able to return your innocence." If you are worried that you will not return, Uncle I am willing to take this surname and accompany you. ”

He was the one who asked Yue Su to reconcile with him, and he also saw Yue Su reprimanding You Chuancheng with his own eyes, and firmly believed in his heart that Yue Su should give them a reasonable explanation.

Seeing Liutai standing on Yue Su's side, Fang Cai'er thought for a while, and said: "If I can exchange my surname for the safety of the whole clan, what does it matter if I die." Lord Yue, I only hope that you can keep your word and promise me that as long as I go with you, you will not embarrass my people. ”

When Liu Tai finished speaking just now, Fang Cai'er had been weighing, thinking that Yue Su dared to go to the meeting alone without fear of life and death at such a moment, if he came to deceive himself, he would be too bold. A person who can have such courage is also a good man, and he should be able to be trusted.

"Fang Tusi, please rest assured, this mansion will never break its promise, not only will it not embarrass your people, but it will also give you a fair trial. As long as you are innocent, I will restore your innocence. "Yue Su is peaceful and authentic.

"Good! Then Cai'er will go with Master Yue. ”

Yue Su nodded, and said: "There is still something I want to ask Fang Tusi in this mansion, Ling Zun said that he did not enter the city alone, and there were retinues by his side, I don't know if there were survivors among them when they were ambushed." Also, since the assassins left behind weapons, they think that there must be dead people, but I don't know where the corpses are? ”

Fang Cai'er replied truthfully: "When Daddy entered the city, he brought six clansmen, Fang Ji came back to report the news, and Fang Cha was seriously injured. Three of them died, and now they have been dismembered by the blades and thrown into the forest to feed the dogs. ”

Hearing this answer, Yue Su smiled helplessly, he originally wanted to find some clues from the assassin's corpse, but now it seems that there is no hope. had to say: "Then please ask Fang Ji and Fang Cha to come with me too, these three knives are physical evidence, and they should also be brought." ”

"No problem."

After a simple dinner in the hall, Yue Su did not rest, and immediately said that he would take Fang Cai'er, Fang Ji, and Fang Cha to You Chuancheng's camp first, and then return to the city overnight.

Fang Cai'er explained, asked Liu Tai and Gou Yao to stay in the village for the time being, and helped take care of it, and then left with Yue Su.

Although Fang Cha was injured, after nearly a month of recuperation, he was basically recovered, and everyone rode on horseback and soon came to You Chuancheng's camp.

You Chuancheng had just had dinner at this time, and when he heard that Yue Su had returned, he asked him to come in. Yue Su led Fang Cai'er into the Zhongjun tent, and said straight to the point: "General You, Fang Cai'er, the Tusi of Fangzhai, has come with this official to assist in the investigation of the assassination of Qianguo Gong. I will repair a letter to state the benefits and disadvantages, and you will forward it to General Zhang and ask him to collect the troops. ”

You Chuancheng said with a smiling face: "Lord Yue said so, it is the best, and we soldiers don't want to be bloody, after all, everyone is raised by our parents." Then he shouted, "Someone! Pen and ink waiting. ”

When the pen and ink came, Yue Su wrote a letter, which probably read: Assassinating the official of the imperial court, if the evidence is conclusive, it should be connected to the whole family. However, it is difficult to conclude the case based on the words of the Duke of Qianguo alone. Fang Zhai is under the rule of this government, and he used swords and soldiers to provoke a civil uprising, who is responsible. Therefore, Zhang Zongbing is requested to temporarily dismiss the sword soldiers, and the government will try it first, and after the case is finalized, it will be disposed of. If Zhang Zongbing insists on going his own way and does not listen to dissuasion, the government will play the court according to the book. In addition, the government will clearly say that it will act as a governor of the yamen and truthfully report the matters here.

handed over the letter to You Chuancheng, Yue Su immediately took his leave and returned to Fucheng with Fang Cai'er and others.

On the other hand, You Chuancheng sent someone to quickly hand over Yue Su's official letter to the general army, and after Zhang Yanfang read it, he had no choice but to stop the army. Don't look at him as a general soldier, I don't know how many levels higher than the prefect, but the civil official is powerful, he really keeps dissuading, destroys Fang Zhai, and is included in a book by him, I am afraid that he will not be able to get half of the credit, and he will have to carry a punishment. And Yue Su also said that he wanted to write to the governor of the yamen, and he sent troops to destroy the village, relying on the official document of the Duke of Qianguo, one did not notify the locality, and the other did not write to the governor.

threw the letter on the table and said, "Let You Chuancheng come back." After speaking, he asked someone to bring a pen and paper and replied to Yue Su. Its content is nothing more than that, Lord Yue, after you finalize the case, you must inform the general, and let the general order the troops to destroy Fangzhai, this credit, half of the family is good.

In his eyes, Yue Su did this just to grab credit. The prefect of Tongren has fallen several times, and this kid is afraid of following in the footsteps of his predecessors, so he grabbed the case first, and then decided the case casually, reported it to the court, and said that he found the traitors and made a lot of political achievements at once.

It's just that this time he guessed completely wrong. When Yue Su rushed back to Tongren City, it was getting late and the city gate was closed early. Revealing his identity, the soldiers guarding the gate immediately opened the door and returned all the way back to the prefect's yamen, Yue Su asked Fang Cai'er and the three of them to stay in the back ya, and asked the messenger to guard carefully.

The next morning, he wrapped three steel knives engraved with "Daming Yunnan General Military Mansion" and went to the residence of the county lord Mu Tianjiao.

Mu Tianjiao was very puzzled when she saw Yue Su's sudden visit, but immediately asked him to invite him to the flower hall for tea.

After the two met, they had to do some official etiquette, and then Mu Tianjiao asked, "Lord Yue, I don't know why you suddenly came to the door today?" ”

Yue Su said solemnly: "Back to the county lord, the lower officials heard that the Duke of Qianguo was recently assassinated, and I don't know if the matter can be true, so I went to the house to consult." ”

"My father was assassinated!" When Mu Tianjiao heard this, she was startled, and hurriedly said, "Where did Lord Yue hear about it, why don't I know, how is my father now?" ”

From Mu Tianjiao's panicked expression, Yue Su saw that she didn't know, so he said: "I also heard from others, the chief soldier Zhang Yanfang got a letter from Lingzun, saying that he was assassinated by the assassins in the village under the rule of this mansion a few days ago, so I asked General Zhang to send troops to exterminate Fang Zhai." It seems that the grandfather should be fine. ”

"Oh, it's fine." Mu Tianjiao took a long breath, and her hanging heart was put down. She is also a person who has a city in her heart, glanced at Yue Su, smiled slightly, and said, "Lord Yue, I think you didn't come here to consult my father's current situation. It can be seen that you are also a straight-tempered person, so you don't have to beat around the bush, just say something directly. ”

"The county lord is not only bold, but also discerning, and the government admires it. Since the county lord asked me to speak up, then I will tell the truth. Yue Su said with a smile: "Yesterday, General Zhang sent his deputy general You Chuancheng to exterminate Fangzhai, but I stopped him for no other reason, but I didn't want to provoke a civil uprising. Now the government has taken the Fangzhai Tusi to the case, and she said that Ling Zun had sent someone to stab her father to death, and I don't know if there is such a thing? ”
