Chapter 66: Uncle Guo Arrives

"Back to the adult, the subordinates have been staring at the Liuxiang Pavilion these days, and found that Xiyue only came out once, that is, the day after the adult left Luoyang. She went to the Yunsheng Gambling House, and after she entered, she didn't come out again. Later, the little one found out that there was a back door there, and maybe she walked through the back door. It's just that I don't know if she went to the casino to find someone, or if she found that the villain was following her and escaped through the casino. The officer replied as it was.

Go to the Yunsheng Casino! This case, Yue Su was suspicious of the casino earlier, how could there be too many casinos, unable to determine the target, now as soon as I heard that Xiyue had been to Yunsheng Casino, it was also said that it must have colluded with her and Yunsheng Casino, poisoned Zhang Xiang, and then was killed by the casino.

Yue Su gave an order, took the old bustard, and returned to the governor's line. Back to Xingyuan, the front hall was changed into a public hall, and three copper guillotines were placed, and people were sent to the Yunsheng Gambling House, and the gambling house was temporarily sealed, and the upper and lower people were brought together.

Tie Qiu led 200 guards straight to the Yunsheng gambling house, and as soon as he entered the gambling house, the gamblers inside saw that so many officers and soldiers had arrived, and they jumped down. Tie Qiu immediately shouted: "The governor's yamen is here to handle the case!" It's the people in the gambling house, no one is allowed to move, and if it's not the gambling house, get out of me immediately! ”

Originally, this group of gamblers was scared enough, and when they heard that it was from the governor's yamen, they were even more frightened.

Seeing the officers and soldiers coming to clear the people, the guys in the gambling house were a little confused, after all, it was Zhang Guozhang's industry, and in the Luoyang territory, no one had dared to make trouble. But the prestige of the governor, they also knew it, and there was that clever one, so they hurriedly ran inside and went to find the steward.

The housekeeper's name is Zhang Rong, who was originally the second housekeeper of the Guozhang Mansion, because Zhang Guoji saw that the casino made money, so he only opened the casino last year, Zhang Rong was a confidant, so he asked him to come here to be in charge of everything.

This Zhang Rong was robbed of the account book by Yue Su last time, and when he returned to the house, he was scolded by Zhang Guoji, threatening that now his daughter is not only the queen, but also gave birth to a dragon son. Let Zhang Rong go and get the account books back immediately. Zhang Rong made a trip to the governor, but the messenger told him that Lord Yue had gone out and wanted account books, and he would wait for the lord to come back. The account book didn't come back, he was full of emotions in his heart, and now the governor yamen dared to come to clear the scene again, and he was angry at the time, and ran out in a hurry with the thugs in the casino.

As soon as he saw Tie Qiu, Zhang Rong scolded, ", do you know whose business this is, this is the current Guozhang Zhang Jue's." If you know each other, hurry up and get out of here, otherwise you won't be able to eat and walk around! ”

If you say this to others, you may be able to bluff it, but it is Tie Qiu, what kind of temper is Tie Qiu, he took two steps forward, grabbed Zhang Rong's collar, and shouted: "Grandma, who are you telling to get out?" I don't care what you do with Lord Zhang and Lord Li, Lao Tzu was ordered to pick up people, and they will all be escorted away by me! Tell you, don't say anything about Zhang Guozhang, it's that Uncle Zhang Guo, Lao Tzu also beat him in Yanjing City! ”

After speaking, he dragged Zhang Rong and walked out.

Zhang Rong's side, followed by more than 20 thugs, seeing that Tie Qiu was presumptuous, he dared to pull the steward away, so he immediately rushed forward and shouted loudly: "Boy, let go!" ”

Seeing that the other party had a hands-on posture, Tie Qiu became even more angry and shouted: "Let it go!" As he spoke, he pushed Zhang Rong back, then pulled out his waist knife, pointed forward, and shouted: "Governor Yamen Tiren, the one who dares to resist arrest, just come up and try!" ”

The guards brought by Tie Qiu were a little stunned after hearing about Zhang Guozhang's name just now, who in Yanjing City didn't know Empress Zhang. But now that they saw the iron knife, everyone didn't dare to slack off, and they rushed forward one after another to show off the guys.

Although Zhang Guozhang is big, but Lord Yue is indeed in charge, who in this group does not know the temper of their own adults, and even dares to play hard when they go to the Zhou Palace, it seems that there is no one in this world that Lord Yue is afraid of. Whoever dares to be afraid of it, let people hurt the iron coffin, and after going back, they must not let the adults shave their heads. Besides, even if you provoke Uncle Guo, Uncle Guo is looking for a big one, and it is difficult to find it on his head.

Seeing that the officers and men were not afraid of any country at all, and they all showed their weapons, there was a posture that whoever dared to resist would correct the law on the spot, and the thugs of this group were all panicked and did not know what to do.

Zhang Rong had just been pushed by Tie Qiu, and he fell on the spot, and he heard it clearly, the man in front of him kept saying that he had beaten Uncle Zhang Guo in Yanjing City. How could the Zhang family publicize such ugly things, and people who had been to Yanjing City knew about it, and they were also silenced and resolutely not allowed to say it to the outside world. The rest of the Zhang Mansion didn't know at all, although Zhang Rong heard the slightest rumor, he didn't dare to ask around. Now as soon as I heard that the person on the other side had beaten Uncle Guo, the momentum just now was gone, and he was afraid of provoking the other party, the other party really did it, and the hero didn't suffer the loss in front of him, anyway, he had just instructed someone to slip away from the back door and report to the house. At that time, let's wait for the national abbot to come forward.

Zhang Rong slowly got up from the ground and said, "This poor master, you just said that you were here to mention someone, I don't know who you want to mention?" ”

"The governor of Feng ordered that all the people in the Yunsheng Gambling House be put in prison, and the casino was temporarily sealed." After Tie Qiu finished speaking, he waved his hand and shouted: "What are you waiting for, take people away, the casino is closed!" ”

"Yes!" The officers and soldiers were not ambiguous, and everyone worked together to hold down everyone in the casino and escort them out of the gate. Tie Qiu left 50 people to block the gambling house, and brought his own people back to Xingyuan.

At present, there is still a lot of gambling money on the casino table, and the iron carp has not been counted, and the officers and soldiers who are responsible for staying behind are not taking the opportunity to take a hand. It's just that he doesn't dare to be too arrogant, he thinks too much, he will definitely be seen, who knows if the adults can come, if he finds out, he will definitely be unlucky.

Bringing people to the governor's line, Yue Su did not let Tie Qiu take the people to the court, but first asked Tie Qiu to ask about the duties of this group of people in the casino, and then interrogated them one by one.

The first one to be brought in is the one in charge of guarding the gate, also known as ushering customers.

As soon as this person was brought to the hall, he heard the sound of "mighty" on both sides, so frightened that he knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "Little Qiu Dagen knocks on the adult." ”

"Your name is Qiu Dagen, I don't know what errand you are doing in the gambling house?" Yue Su asked calmly.

"Yes, sir. The small ones are gatekeepers in the gambling house. ”

"On November 13th, have you ever seen the Cherished Moon of Liuxiang Pavilion enter your gambling house?" The date that Yue Su said was the day when he went to the gambling house in the moon.

"Back to the adult's words, the villain saw it." Qiu Dagen didn't dare to hide it and said truthfully.

"What is she doing in there?" Yue Su asked again.

"I don't know the specific villain, but I must have gone in to find the steward." Qiu Dagen said.

"How can you be sure that you are in charge?"

"She is a kiln sister, how can she come to us, she must have come to us to take care of things."

"Does she have any friendship with your steward? Have you been here before? Yue Su asked.

"Whether there is a friendship or not, the little one doesn't know, and he doesn't dare to talk nonsense. I haven't been here before, but this is my first time. ”

I've never been to a casino before, and this time I went, I must have reported to the casino steward, saying that I was suspicious of her, but within two days, she was killed.

Yue Su quickly made this judgment and asked Qiu Dagen to sign and draw the pledge first. And then it was passed on to others.

Yue Su asked all this question, he had never been to the casino until the moon, who went to the casino to find, and the guys in the gambling house did not hide it, and they all confessed truthfully. There is nothing to hide about this kind of thing, because when Xiyue entered the casino, the casino exploded, who doesn't know.

People who go to the gambling house to play, among them, there must be a few who have been to the Liuxiang Pavilion, and then coax together, the whole gambling house people, all know that it is the kiln sister of the Liuxiang Pavilion.

As for who the casino is looking for, this question is even more clear, a girl who is relatively popular must not take the initiative to find the next person, and she is also in charge.

Let all the guys sign and draw the pledge, and Yue Su asked Zhang Rong to take him.

After Zhang Rong went to the court, he relied on the fact that he was the second housekeeper of the Guozhang Mansion, so he stood up and did not kneel, but just arched his hand and said: "I don't know what Lord Yue invited Zhang to come here, what are you doing?" And why did someone close the gambling house? Please give me an explanation. ”

"The gambling house was closed only temporarily, and the headquarters of the hospital sent all the people in your gambling house to the inside, and I was afraid that the money inside would be lost, so I sent someone to watch. As for why you are here, don't you have any numbers in your heart......" Speaking of this, Yue Su slammed the hall and shouted: "Boldly Diao Min, why don't you kneel when you see the main department!" Don't kneel down quickly and get your name on! ”

"Wei ...... Wu ......" The officers on both sides heard the adults say this, and they all shouted Tang Wei. The purpose is very simple, it means to tell the prisoner to know each other, otherwise don't blame us for being polite.

Zhang Rong also knew each other, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "My lord, Xiaomin's name is Zhang Rong, and I don't know what the adults tell me, so please let the adults make it clear." ”

"Okay, then the ministry will remind you. On the thirteenth day of November, did the cherished moon of Liuxiang Pavilion come to the Yunsheng Gambling House to find you? ”

"Yes, sir." Yue Su passed so many people in successively, although after they were brought out, they were all isolated on one side, and they couldn't ventilate with this side, who knows what they asked inside. Zhang Rong didn't dare to talk nonsense.

"What did she do with you?" Yue Su stared at Zhang Rong and said, "Raise your head, look at the headquarters and say." ”

Zhang Rong raised his head and said, "She's looking for me...... Yes...... She saw that I hadn't been to Liuxiang Pavilion for a long time, so she came over to ask. ”

He was a little sluggish in his speech, obviously talking and thinking about it. If there was no problem, I wouldn't have spoken like that. Yue Su saw it in his eyes and immediately concluded that Zhang Rong was lying.

"In this way, Steward Zhang often goes to Liuxiang Pavilion, and he is also a frequent visitor to Xiyue. Then I don't know that Steward Zhang generally goes to Liuxiang Pavilion every few days? Yue Su asked lightly.

"This ...... Xiaomin doesn't go often, but when he goes, he gives more rewards, so the girl who cherishes the moon remembers it clearly. I think it was because I didn't go for a long time, so I came to ask. When Zhang Rong said the word "this", it dragged on for a long time, and it seemed that he was thinking of an excuse again.

"Since you are not a regular customer, why would the girl in the hall look for you? Steward Zhang, your excuse is a bit far-fetched, right? Yue Su said coldly.

"I ...... My lord, in fact, I don't know why Xiyue came back to me. After meeting, she only said that she missed me and asked me to visit her often. And then we were in the room...... Then I gave her twenty taels of silver and sent her away through the back door. Zhang Rong saw that the excuse just now was punctured, so he didn't know it.

Yue Su continued to ask, "Then how many times have you been to the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion?" ”

"This ...... Xiaomin can't remember it clearly......"

"Places that are rarely visited by ordinary people, and after going there a few times, most of them can remember. Steward Zhang helps Guozhang take care of the casino, and he is also a fine person, why can't he even remember such things? Yue Su asked again.

"Alas......" Zhang Rong sighed deliberately and said: "When people are old, it is not good to remember their surnames, alas...... Old...... It's old......"

"Aren't you unable to remember, that's easy, the headquarters will help you ask, see how many times you have been there, it can make Miss Xiyue miss you deeply, and I want to make a special trip to find you." After speaking, Yue Su shouted loudly: "Take the old bustard of the Liuxiang Pavilion to the hall." ”

The voice settled, and after a moment, the old bustard was brought to the hall. When she saw Yue Su, she immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and after seeing the salute, she only heard Yue Su say: "Old bustard, I passed you to the court, there is something to ask you, you don't talk nonsense, otherwise you will blame the headquarters for being unkind to you." ”

In the courtyard, that is the most well-informed place, the prestige of Lord Yue, how could the old bustard not hear about it. hurriedly said: "If the adults have something to ask, the women know everything and say everything." ”

"Well, look at the people next to you, you know." Yue Su pointed at Zhang Rong.

The old bustard glanced at it and said: "This is the second housekeeper of the Guozhang Mansion, a well-known figure in Luoyang City, how can the women not know it." ”

"That's good. The ministry asked you, how many times has Zhang Rong been to your Liuxiang Pavilion this year? Yue Su asked coldly.

"Steward Zhang is a frequent visitor to Manchun Building, and I have only come to our Liuxiang Pavilion once in my impression, and that time it seems that I am looking for Xiyue, Steward Zhang, I'm right." The old bustard said with a smile on his face.

Zhang Rong really hadn't been to Liuxiang Pavilion much, so he didn't dare to say that he was a regular visitor, because he was afraid that Yue Su would go to confront someone. I thought that the old bustard remembered the surname badly, and would give a vague number, who would have thought that the people who did the old bustard's line of work were very good at remembering the surname, and they could even do it without forgetting their faces. How many times you've been there, which girl you like, you can basically remember it. What's more, Zhang Rong only went once, and he was looking for Xiyue, who had just died.

Hearing this, Yue Su knocked the shocked wood hard, and shouted angrily: "Zhang Rong! You've only been to Liuxiang Pavilion once, no matter how much you reward, how can a girl come to you! It's a bunch of nonsense! If you dare to deceive the ministry again, don't blame the ministry for using heavy punishment on you! ”

Seeing Yue Su angry, the old bustard was frightened, his head hung lower, and he didn't even dare to speak.

Zhang Rong also secretly screamed badly, held it for a long time, and finally said: "She...... She was asking me to borrow money. ”

"Borrow money?" Yue Su chuckled lightly and said, "How much does she care how much you borrow?" ”

"One...... Three thousand taels ......" Zhang Rong wanted to say one thousand taels, but then he thought that one thousand taels was a bit less, so he changed it to three thousand taels.

"Steward Zhang, whether it's one or three, don't worry, think clearly." An incomparably bright smile appeared on Yue Su's face. People who have been with Yue Su for a long time know that when adults are trying cases, if they laugh harder, it is time to do it.

It's just that Zhang Rong didn't know, and still said: "Three thousand taels, I remember clearly, it's three thousand taels." ”

"Nonsense!" When Yue Su heard this excuse, he raised the shocked wood, and almost threw it at Zhang Rong's head with hatred. "You really see that Xiyue is dead, no one confronts you, and above the court, you dare to talk nonsense! You've only been to Xiyue once, how can she borrow money from you? With such an excuse, you dare to use it to deceive the Ministry, are you a three-year-old child in the Ministry? Come on, give me twenty slaps! ”

Seeing that Yue Su ordered the torture, Zhang Rong hurriedly shouted: "I am the second housekeeper of the Guozhang Mansion, Lord Yue, you have no evidence, why are you beating me." You know, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, if you dare to beat me, aren't you afraid that the grandfather will find you to settle accounts? ”

It's a coincidence, at this moment, there were guards outside who hurriedly ran to the entrance of the hall, bowed down and said: "Lord Qiyu, there is a person who claims to be Uncle Zhang Guo outside the line, who brought many people to the door, and also escorted our people. He kept saying that he would let the adults release his people and compensate him for his losses, otherwise he would make the adults look good. ”

Hearing that Uncle Guo was coming, Zhang Rong immediately came to his senses, not only laughed, but also stood up and said, "Lord Yue, I advise you to get acquainted with each other and let me go." Otherwise, my uncle will never let you have good fruit to eat. You must know that this time is different, the current queen has given birth to a dragon son, if you dare not know what is good or bad, and lose your official position, I am afraid that you will have to be in a different place! ”
