Dekzik did not dare to slack off, packed up his armor neatly, and took Goshha to set up a battle to welcome the first big man to come here in more than a year, the fourth son of Chu Ying, the eldest son of Nurhachi, and the fourth son of the Yellow Banner Armor La's True Color Ketu.

The gate of the Shifang Temple Fort slowly opened, the hollow cannon clanged, the horns whimpered for a long time, and the banners and armor soldiers were lined up on both sides, and the elite momentum was eye-catching.

Dekzik looked up and saw a group of men and horses lined up outside the fortress, but after searching around, he did not see Sektu, who only heard his name but did not see him. Dekzik thought about it, how could the relatives of the emperor and the country rashly stand in front of the team, and the correspondence was a matter of domestic slave deployment. So he opened his throat and shouted: "The captain of the Blue Flag City, Dekzik, greets Beizi!" ”

But he saw a military general dressed in bright light armor come out and replied: "Beizi wants to enter the city, please lead the way!" ”

The two sides naturally used Manchu to answer, Dekzik was very dissatisfied, but he was also the chief general of the Shifang Temple, even if the other party was a shell, he should also be rewarded with a few thin noodles, it seems that this kind of arrogance is really annoying.

However, Dekzik can also see that this Seketu should always have some face when he enters the fortress, as long as he can speak, maybe he can find an opportunity to transfer out of this place. As soon as he thought of this, Dekzik immediately led everyone into the fort.

Many of the fortresses in Liaodong are expanded on the basis of the fortresses in the Ming Dynasty, the scale of the Shifang Temple is large, and it can even accommodate more than 10,000 people in wartime, and there are only 3,000 garrisons inside.

"Enter the city!"

I saw that the Mingguang armored army that had been talking to Dekzik just now would follow closely and ride into the Shifang Temple Fort, and the large team of men and horses roared into the city.

Dekzik looked at the cavalry entering the city with envy, but saw that many of the cavalry were carrying firearms on their shoulders and sabers hanging from their waists. Suddenly, he seemed to feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it for a while, and just as he was about to think about it, Sektu himself appeared in front of him.

The Mingguang Armor General reprimanded: "Seketu Beizi is here, don't hurry up and see the courtesy!" ”

Dekzik woke up like a dream, and hurriedly dismounted and hit a thousand, "Dekzik, the captain of the Blue Flag City, please say hello to Beizi!" He knelt on one knee, but he was amazed in his heart, sure enough, after the royal family, this body shape and aura were difficult for people with low status like them to achieve. is also the reason, people with both heavy and noble statuses have naturally developed the kind of aura that is not angry and arrogant, and these low-level generals who have been working hard at the bottom are of course unable to catch up.

As soon as Dekzik wanted to get up, he felt a chill in his neck, and suddenly raised his head to see a cold saber coming up, and he was immediately dizzy and overwhelmed by this sudden change. I only heard Seketu shouting sharply: "Take Dekezik by the will of the two palaces, you all listen to it, from this moment on, the three thousand armor soldiers in the Shifang Temple will be promoted by me, and those who dare to violate it will be decided!" ”

What, this Seketu turned out to be here to arrest him, Dekzik suddenly had a feeling of falling into hell, and just wanted to beg for mercy, but he saw that the waist of Goshha next to Seketu was actually a Yanling knife, what is the Yanling knife, it is a Ming Dynasty standard saber. The Manchu magnates of Goshha categorically did not use this kind of knife, and usually preferred to use the Mongol saber with a certain arc. Could it be that he is a spy of the deceitful camp?

As soon as he thought of this, out of the instinct of self-preservation, Dekzik ventured to jump up from the ground and shouted: "They are the spies of the Ming army, everyone obeys the order, fire the bow and release the arrow!" ”

As soon as Dekzik's words were exported, the bannermen in the fort were confused, this was clearly Seketubezi, how could it be a fake? If this person is a fake, it is impossible to pretend to be such a phenomenon, from the honor guard to the figure and bearing of Seketu himself, the difficulty is beyond ordinary people's imagination.

The flag soldiers in the fort hesitated, but Seketu did not hesitate, the Goshha beside him raised and fell, the Yan Ling knife contained a mountain, the bloody head rolled to the ground, and the blood arrow shot straight out of the cavity more than a dozen steps away, several flag Ding armor soldiers couldn't dodge, and were sprayed all over their faces, trembling with fright.

In the blink of an eye, the city guard captain Dekzik, who was still alive just now, was already in a different place.

"All the flag soldiers obey the order, gather all the people to come to the school field, and Seketu Beizi has two palace decrees issued!"

……

"What? Do you say it again, the Holy Lord is ready to use Zhang Fangyan as the chief judge? The voice of the cabinet scholar was extremely majestic, and the little eunuch in front of him trembled, and replied in a low voice: "The villain didn't really hear it, but it was indeed to enable Zhang Fangyan, and after the villain heard the prince and the Lord Long Live mention Zhang Fangyan, the Lord of Long Live nodded in agreement, and he also said that he wanted to see him in person, and then make a decision!" ”

Zhang Sizhi asked many times, and seeing that he couldn't ask anything more, he reached out and took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and handed it to the little eunuch. "Take it!"

The little eunuch made a gesture to excuse himself, but Zhang Sizhi stuffed it directly into his hand, and his voice softened. "This is what you deserve, remember that there is any key information in the future, and you must report it to the old man in time, it will not be able to treat you badly!"

"Xie Ge Lao rewards money!" After the little eunuch thanked him again and again, he confessed and turned to leave.

"Come back!" Zhang Sizhi suddenly called him up, and the little eunuch turned back in fear, "What's the matter with the old man calling the villain?" ”

Zhang Sizhi pointed to the wooden box in his hand, "The red ticket is going to be put down and then leave!" The little eunuch suddenly realized that he was only nervous just now, and he actually forgot all the official duties of coming to the cabinet hall, and repeatedly confessed his guilt, and put the wooden box on the table, and then he seemed to have to leave.

Seeing the eunuch leave the cabinet hall, the smile on Zhang Sizhi's face was gone.

"Elder Ge, if Zhang Fangyan concludes this case, it will be absolutely beneficial to us!"

Li Shiwen shook his head from behind Zhang Sizhi and analyzed the changes brought about by the substitution! Zhang Fang is strict with his people, Zhang Sizhi and Li Shiwen have been officials in the same dynasty as him for decades, and they are very familiar with it, but they also know that this person is only a promise on the surface, but in fact he is a delicate and transparent crystal fox, and he is really wise and foolish. However, this kind of person also has a fatal weakness, that is, he seems to be good at dancing with long sleeves, but he is vulnerable in the face of strong pressure. As long as you grasp this weakness, it will be much easier to succeed.

The emperor chose him to be the chief judge, whether it was caused by Wang Chengen's prostitution, or whether there was another hidden situation, Zhang Sizhi couldn't figure it out for a while, but only from the surface, it was much easier to pull Li Xin into the water than before!

In the Wenhua Palace, the old man Zhang Fangyan walked into the hall tremblingly, trembling uncontrollably, of course he was not afraid, but excited. The emperor summoned him privately in the palace, which was such an honor for an old minister who had been in office for many years.

"Old minister Zhang Fangyan knocks to see my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" After Zhang Fangyan knelt down and knocked nine times, he did not get up, but leaned on the ground with his head, pouted his buttocks and cried. Anyone can see that this is by no means a fake, the sincerity is so sincere that even Zhu Youzhen on top of Danqi is moved!

"Hurry up, Ge Lao!"

Zhu Youzhen also ordered the eunuch to prepare a soft stool for Zhang Fangyan, but Zhang Fangyan insisted that he would not accept it.

"The old minister faces the gentleman and acts as a deacon, and he sits in front of the king, and the old minister can't sit steadily!"

Zhang Fangyan's direct refusal not only did not make Zhu Youzhen feel disappointed, but made him feel that this old man was straightforward and interesting.

"If you don't sit, you don't sit! I, I miss you old ministers! ”

Zhu Youzhen didn't know why, he suddenly said something very emotional, and the old man burst into tears, and it calmed down after a while.

"The saint summoned the old minister into the palace, but it was to judge the case?"

Although Zhang Fangyan didn't get the answer he wanted to know from the eunuch air before entering the palace, he also knew a few major events that happened in the Beijing Division, and after thinking about it, it could only be such a thing.

Zhu Youzhen stopped chatting when he saw Zhang Fangyan's outspokenness, and told him bluntly: "I summoned the old man of the pavilion this time, just for the Niu Dan case. I am going to appoint you as the chief judge, and I hope that the elder will reveal the truth to the world! ”

"Holy Lord, the old minister has something to understand, please ask the Holy Lord to solve his doubts!"

"Say!"

"In the past, these things were done by Jinyiwei, why is it abnormal this time, but the three law divisions are going to judge the case?"

Although Zhu Youzhen's face was still kind, his heart immediately turned cloudy, how could this kind of thing be asked by a courtier? But it was inconvenient to directly refute Zhang Fangyan's face, so he made a mistake.

"Don't worry about Elder Zhang Ge, since I am ready to let you investigate this case thoroughly, I hope you can investigate it to the end, I just want the truth!" Of course, his truth is not only about the cow egg burning the gate of Yongping Mansion, but also the real reason behind such an unbelievable thing as Li Xin's sudden departure from Jinzhou.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, as long as they are not fools, can naturally understand the meaning of the emperor.

Zhu Youzhen wants to use the Three Law Divisions without Jinyiwei, naturally he has his concerns and considerations, but this kind of heart will definitely not say it to the second person in this world.

"Since the saint can trust the minister, the minister still has a reluctant request!"

"Ge Lao, but to say it, I will fully support it!"

Zhang Fangyan shook his gray beard and said word by word: "The old minister has set a set of methods for adjudicating the case, and the three law divisions need to fully cooperate with the old minister!" ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded, this was originally the meaning it should be, and it was naturally allowed.

"Lao Chen also has to select a hundred jurors from among the hundred officials!"

This request made Zhu Youzhen a little displeased, but he still nodded and agreed, as long as he could solve the doubts in his heart, he could bear it.
