Chapter 174: People Must Be Self-Contained
Zhang Ou looked at Li Han wiping his face with his sleeves in embarrassment, and was furious, thinking that when the old man insulted Ma Lang, the "tail wagging flattery" in his mouth was undoubtedly scolding me, you are already a old dog that the emperor has decided to give up, and you dare to be so arrogant, it seems that it is not okay to give you some color.
"Zhou Yafu, you are suspected of rebellion, it is okay to refuse to cooperate with the investigation, and you dare to insult the officials appointed by the emperor, it seems that you are desperate to rebel, since you refuse to say it here, then come with me to the Tingwei Mansion to say it."
After Zhang Ou finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Come on, please invite the prime minister's father and son to the Tingwei Mansion." ”
The Tingwei Mansion is the unit responsible for criminal cases across the country, no matter whether you are noble or low, as long as a person commits a criminal case, they will all be investigated, tried and sentenced, which is equivalent to the public procuratorate and law gathering the high court.
Just now, a group of guards from the Tingwei Mansion had just been pitiful by Zhou Yafu on horseback, and they were rubbing their hands there, when they heard the chief's words, they shouted and hugged over, and a group of people surrounded Zhou Yafu, and the others went to grab Zhou Yang, who was powerless, and tied up Zhou Yang, who was powerless, and tied up the rich and noble people who cried loudly.
Zhou Yafu saw that his son was tied up pitifully, and his eyes were split, and he took out the sword on his waist and raised it high, after all, the tiger is old and majestic, Zhou Yafu is a general, he brandished the sword, and when he made the guards scatter in fright, he cried wolf howl while fleeing: "It's the opposite!" It's the opposite! ”
Zhou Yafu never expected that the hero would fall into the hands of Xiaoxiao. He knew that as soon as he entered the Tingwei Mansion, he would be humiliated in every way, he was disheartened for a while, his eyes were red, and he shouted with a horizontal sword in his neck: "The purchase of the armor shield is done by the old man alone, since the emperor wants the old man to die, the old man satisfies him, you let go of my Yang'er, take my head to ask for credit." ”
"Don't you, sir!" An old woman's voice sounded mournfully, and Mrs. Hou stumbled out of the courtyard. pounced and knelt on the ground and hugged Zhou Yafu's legs. Crying mournfully, he begged: "Master, you must not hurt your life with recklessness, without you, how can you save Yang'er?" If you are going to die. Then simply kill the whole family first. Let's die together! ”
Zhou Yang also fell to the ground and cried bitterly: "Daddy, don't die." Daddy save me......"
Immediately, large and small, old and weak women and children poured out of the courtyard, as well as a cadre of domestic servants. The group surrounded Zhou Yafu and his wife and cried loudly, and in an instant, the Tiao Hou Mansion became the scene of the memorial service, and the chaos was miserable and miserable.
Li Han just wiped his face with his sleeve and spit, still felt that it smelled fishy, when Zhang Ou exerted his majesty, he walked into the courtyard of Zhou Yafu's house alone, found water and washed his face, but no one stopped him, just walked out and stood on the high steps, looking at this scene condescendingly, there was no resentment towards Zhou Yafu in his heart, but there was a pity for seeing the tiger fall in Pingyang and being bullied by dogs.
"Zhou Xiang, a man is born in the world, he must be loyal to the king, filial piety to his parents, love to his wife, and kindness to his children."
Li Han's voice was very loud, and it came loudly from the top of the steps, and the noise attracted was silent instantly, and everyone turned their faces to look at Li Han, at this moment, Shaofu Cheng looked very tall.
"If you wipe your neck and kill yourself when you encounter difficulties, you are unfaithful because the king is stained by ignorance, you are unfilial because you lose your son's support, your wife is unkind because you lose her husband's care, and your children are unkind because you lose their father's protection, even if you are famous all your life, and you die on such a filthy charge, are you willing?"
As soon as Li Han's words fell, the prime minister's wife cried: "Master, what Ma Lang said is very true, don't be desperate!"
I have also been to your house, and I have a very happy conversation with my grandmother, knowing that you are a good boy who is kind and upright, you must find out the truth, don't let my master die of anger! ”
Li Han was acting as a hero of justice, and suddenly an old lady used "is a good friend with his grandmother", and suddenly beat him back to his original form, and became the younger generation of his grandchildren, so he had to rub his nose and said with a smile: "Madam, please rest assured, Zhou Xiangnai is a junior elder, and it is okay to teach him a lesson."
It's just that today's matter is the emperor's order, and I asked my wife to persuade Zhou Xianghaosheng to go to the Tingwei Mansion with us, and it will be okay if we misunderstand. ”
Mrs. Hou thanked Li Han, but still begged Zhou Yafu not to be impulsive and to cooperate with the investigation, and the grandchildren also pulled their knees and cried.
Zhou Yafu's heroism finally disappeared in the tearful eyes of his family, and with a long sigh, he let go of his hand, and the sword of "Cangchangchang" fell to the ground, and a child cleverly picked it up and ran back to the yard, shouting as he ran: "Grandpa come back early." ”
Looking at his grandson's cute appearance, Zhou Yafu lost his momentum even more, and said gloomily: "Madame, get up, the old man listens to you." ”
Zhang Ou looked at Li Han who was casual with admiring eyes, thinking that Ma Lang not only has extraordinary ability, but also has such a self-inflicted forbearance, which will definitely become a big climate in the future, and it seems that this thick leg should be hugged in advance, which will definitely be of great benefit.
After Zhou Yafu dissipated his anger, he also felt that he had gone too far with Li Han, and he had the heart to apologize, but he couldn't put it down, and his words changed his taste: "Boy, the old man will go with you, and see what you can do to me." ”
Li Han walked down the steps step by step, and when he saw the guards of the Tingwei Mansion rudely pulling up Zhou Yang to push him into the prisoner cart, he approached and said, "Stop, let Zhou Gongzi loosen the tie first, and let Zhou Xiang's father and son ride there." ”
Seeing that his son was untied, Zhou Yafu finally pulled down his face and said, "Thank you." ”
"You're welcome, Zhou Xiang, please."
Zhang Ou opened his mouth and said: "Shaofu Cheng is young and talented, but he is humble and generous, which really makes the old man ashamed. ”
Li Han smiled and said: "Zhang Gong has won the award, the kid is in a high position, in fact, he is the junior of you and Zhou Xiang, so naturally you can't be arrogant and lose your duty." ”
Zhou Yafu's face turned red when he heard this. When he walked over, he picked up his son, who was tied up and put him on the horse, and he also got on his horse, and took the lead in walking towards the Tingwei Mansion, and everyone followed behind, so he swaggered through the market in such an eye-catching manner.
The people of Beijing are all deaf and clear-sighted, and they have already seen the clues, and they instantly coaxed the prime minister to rebel and be arrested, and this time it seems that he is going to be unlucky.
After arriving at Tingwei's Mansion, Li Han entered the door and said, "Zhang Tingwei, it's getting late today. It's better to ask Zhou Xiang's father and son to stay for the time being. I still have some urgent matters to go home to deal with, how about a trial tomorrow? ”
Zhang Ouzheng wanted to lock up Zhou Yafu for one night and give this unknown old man a little hardship, so he immediately agreed. ordered someone to "invite the prime minister's father and son to rest". The guards comprehended and led Zhou Yafu and his son into the prison.
Li Han rode on a horse. Blowing the breeze of the golden autumn dusk, looking at the fiery sunset on the horizon, my heart is full of soft melancholy.
This melancholy is not for Zhou Yafu. That old man's personality is too arrogant, he must be tortured tonight, anyway, history records that he had to go on a hunger strike for five days before vomiting blood and died, he will not die tonight, and tomorrow he will think about it.
Li Han's melancholy is because he is homesick.
Why homesickness? It's because Zhou Yafu's wife is too much like his grandmother.
It's not Ji Fan's wife, but his grandmother in 2014.
With homesick tears, Ma Lang walked out of the Tingwei Mansion alone sadly.
Li Han didn't see it, there was a carriage parked at the door of the Tingwei Mansion, the curtain on the carriage was half opened, and a person was staring at him intently, he was full of sadness, and went by himself, the man put down the curtain and said to the coachman: "Don't go in, go home." ”
The carriage had just left, and Zhang Ou had also come out to get off work, but his face was pale and he thought to himself: "Wei Qihou's carriage, why don't you go in since he has already come?" Could it be that he is looking for the Queen Mother to excuse Zhou Yafu? No, the emperor has to know about this matter. ”
"Let's go, let's go into the palace." Zhang Ou immediately turned his horse's head and entered the palace.
Li Han returned home, but saw Liu Lizheng waiting for him with an anxious face, and when he saw him, he picked him up and carried him into the house, and asked with a solemn face: "Han'er, Zhou Xiang was accused of rebellion, did you want to make it out for me?" If you take revenge like this, Uncle Liu can't let you mess around! ”
Li Han looked at Liu Li speechlessly, and groaned in pain: "Alas, Uncle Liu, what do you think of me?" No matter how much I defend my own people, I won't be good or bad and reverse black and white, rebellion is the crime of the Nine Clans, Zhou Xiang is nothing more than arrogant, but he is not guilty of this, I am unintentionally involved in this matter today, and I tried my best to save his life. ”
Liu Li breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, I heard that Zhou Xiang had an accident, and you are the person in charge, I was so frightened that I was covered in cold sweat, for fear that you would be young and vigorous, because I was resentful after complaining, and I wanted to bring down Zhou Xiang, and I almost rushed to the Tingwei Mansion to find you just now." ”
Li Han asked strangely: "Uncle Liu, this incident only happened this afternoon, you are far away in Bashang, how did you hear it?" Are you still sure that I designed the Zhou phase? ”
Liu Li replied: "Wei Qihou hurried to find me, and told me that you went to Shaofu to take office, and had a conflict with Zhou Xiang in the palace, and then you went to the emperor to complain for a long time, and then the emperor ordered you to cooperate with Tingwei to arrest Zhou Xiang and force him to admit the rebellion." ”
Li Han scolded angrily when he heard this: "This Wei Qihou is really a bastard, you and Zhou Yafu were rejected by the emperor at the same time, it is inevitable to see him unlucky and give birth to a rabbit and a dead fox, but you can't spew blood to frame the young master and me, so noisy, everyone in the capital knows that I Li Han is a despicable villain who frames meritorious heroes, how can I gain a foothold in the court next?" ”
After losing his temper, Li Han's face suddenly changed, and he repeated with a cautious face: "Yes, Wei Qihou just wants me to be unable to gain a foothold in the court!" (To be continued......)
