Chapter 137 It is easy to judge a case, but it is difficult to judge a person

Yan Hong went to bed, and his anger gradually subsided, but he was still thinking about how to arrest this Zheng Guoqi and how to deal with this matter. Tossing and turning, and staying awake for most of the night.

Hu Wanniang, who was in the quilt next to her, stared at this husband with a little vigilance at first, but when she looked back at Yan Hong, she was completely thinking about herself, and she couldn't help but feel excited again.

After Yan Hong was on duty the next day, Shen'er came to see his late mother. The master and servant remembered yesterday's events, and they were still afraid. Shen'er said with palpitations: "Miss, yesterday my uncle rushed in angrily to say that, which really scared me to death." Hey, if Li Xianggong's incident really happens, I'm afraid that you and I won't be able to save your life, Miss. Also, this Zheng Guoqi ...... This Zheng Guoqi ...... Miss, according to me, my uncle is also getting better now, and you are still ...... It's better to break the boundless thoughts and live a good life with this side. ”

Wanniang pondered for a moment, shook her head gently, gritted her teeth and said, "What are you afraid of!" I think I didn't have anything to do with Li Lang, and I didn't do that shameless thing. My husband used to be rude to me, but I still treat each other innocently. How can you compare the shameless Yin family! Besides, Li Lang is by no means as unconscionable as Zheng Guoqi. Just wait for him to go to high school one day, maybe ......"

Shen'er took a breath and was about to speak again, when the late mother said again: "Shen'er, you and I have been together for many years, and I also know your thoughts." You don't have to grind your teeth with me. On the night I was married into the Yan Mansion, I had already accepted my fate. I just don't want you to be like me. But since you are willing to practice yourself, I can't be a villain anymore. If the father-in-law of this family is still interested in you, I will not stop you again. However, Li Langna's monthly silver, you should still give it. ”

Listening to what Wanniang said, Shen'er gradually had a smile, but at this time she lowered her face bitterly: "Give it back?" ”

Wan Niang's face was cold: "Of course I want to send it, Li Lang's family is poor, although he was promoted in high school last year, but there are more entertainments and expenses." Without help from my side, how can he continue to study and improve? This year, he will fail the test, and he must step up his efforts. Hey, I just hate him for being one step late, otherwise...... Perhaps, my fate with him in this life has ended, even so, I have lived up to his original affection. ”

Seeing that her young lady looked like a confused nymphomaniac, Shen'er couldn't help but say: "Miss, that Li Xianggong is actually ......."

Wanniang raised her hand to interrupt: "Shen'er, I know what you want to say." Don't bring those words up again. Li Lang, he is a gentleman who reads and abides by etiquette, how can he do anything wrong to you? You don't want to turn black and white upside down in the middle and sow discord. You see that this family is good, so naturally you don't like Li Lang. This flower is in each eye, and I can't say that it moves you, so why fight with you for this black and white? I just hope you think about it again, what kind of man is a good man. As for the father-in-law of this family, he naturally has his benefits. But I took the family's money, and in the blink of an eye, I went to fool around with indiscriminate women, I don't have the ability to pretend that I don't know the way."

Shen'er didn't dare to compete with his own lady, but he thought in his heart: "What kind of courteous gentleman, if I hadn't kept the scissors in my hand every time I saw him, I was afraid that he would have been ...... You're the only one who takes that waste as a good person. Hey, I think I prepared this scissors when I fell at the beginning, which was the internal defense of my uncle, and the external defense of Li Xianggong. Now my uncle is more and more like a serious person, but I can't leave this damn scissors, I'm afraid that the little thoughts that my uncle thinks about me in my heart have also been cut clean......"

In the Yamen of the Jinyi Guard, in the White Tiger Hall, Lu Bing looked at a piece of messy handwriting written by Yan Hong, and inserted a lot of other words (simplified characters), as well as the confessions of Feng Xiaoxian, Zhu Qing, and Wu Lezi who were sent with it, as well as a jade pendant embedded with the word "national weapon", turned it over and over, looked at it a few times, and played carefully, but he was always silent.

Yan Hong was on the side, half of his ass resting on the chair, scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously, but he didn't dare to urge.

Lu Bing looked at it for a while, and seemed to have finally had enough of playing, raised his head, looked at him and said, "I really can't imagine that a virtuous nephew is a means." In less than two days, the visit was so detailed, it seems that it is really a rare young talent in my factory guard. ”

Yan Hong smiled and said, "Uncle Shi, don't play tricks on the little nephew." I'm afraid that Shibo already knows this matter clearly, and even the four chief banners I know more than me. Most of the things that the little nephew did were also the way that Shibo arranged for the little nephew. It's just that Shibo looks at me and wants me to make a mess and let Feng Sheng go, and everyone will be happy. ”

Lu Bing nodded and said, "You kid can think through it." I won't hide it from you, I do think so, and I'm not ignorant of this matter, but do you know why I don't want to interfere? ”

Yan Hong thought to himself, is there anyone who doesn't know the way? It's just that I'm afraid of provoking the mad dogs in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. But he also had to be modest: "The little nephew is stupid." ”

"Whether it's adultery or murder, it's just a matter of the Zheng and Yin families, and I don't want to provoke the group of science and Taoist officials in Zheng Dadutang. They are at odds with our brocade guards, and if they really provoke them, I am afraid they will never make us feel better. ”

Yan Hong said with a smile: "Shi Bo is a henchman of today's son, so naturally he can't provoke such a villain." ”

Lu Bing coughed twice, and said: "You are the eldest grandson of the elder of the pavilion, and the interests and disadvantages of this officialdom, even if you don't know it, you should know a little bit about it." Feng Xiaoxian was really wronged, and he had the face of high sacrificial wine, so we couldn't really hurt him. This Wu leper is not a good person, at the time of the crime, he entered the house with a knife and absconded afterwards. What he said about Zheng Xiaoxianggong strangling Miss Yin San is just a one-sided statement and may not be credible. ”

Yan Hong said: "And that jade pendant ......"

Lu Bingdao: "Whether this jade pendant is Zheng Xiaoxianggong's, and whether it was stolen by Wu Lezi, are all said in two ways, but it is not enough to argue that Wu Lezi's words are true." However, with this jade pendant in hand, I think it is Zheng Dadutang's side, and I don't dare to talk to you anymore. Wu Lezi has no relatives and no reason, he is a single, and he usually doesn't do anything good. ”

Yan Hong is not an idiot: "Shibo, do you want me to push the murder case on Wu Lezi's head?" Sue him for burglary, or ** failed, intent to kill? In this way, Miss Yin San is a chaste martyr who resists the villains. ”

Lu Bing nodded: "Feng Xiao first didn't want to insult his father-in-law's reputation, and secondly, he refused to admit the stigma of killing his wife and son. As long as Zheng Dadutang can hear the word 'jade pendant', he will definitely accept your affection. Virtuous nephew, this matter is handled like this, and it can be regarded as the best of both worlds. This is a godsend for you. ”

Yan Hong said with a smile: "Shibo, the little nephew dares to guess, this Wu leper Shibo has already been taken down, and even the details are clear. Therefore, if he is not arraigned, he will leave it to the little nephew as a way out. Shibo's concern for the little nephew, the little nephew is grateful. When he said the last sentence, his expression was solemn.

Lu Bingdao: "Virtuous nephew, the last time I returned from the suppression of Yongpingzhuang's rebellion, Lu will tell you a word." You're smart enough, but you're not restrained enough. That's not to say. According to the method you just said to close the case, I think it is very appropriate. ”

Yan Hong knows very well that what Lu Bing said is indeed a wise saying. If the case is really closed with Wu Lezi murdering, plus three confessions and one piece of physical evidence, it can be said that Gao Gong and Zheng Xiao will not have any doubts about this verdict, and both sides have won the favor, and they can still end up with the reputation of a god. As for Wu Lezi's broken household, who cares about his shouting of grievances? Not to mention looking at Wu Lezi's situation, if he goes to two sets of punishments casually, this benevolent brother will cry for his father and mother, just to die quickly.

Lu Bing handed over this matter to Yan Hong before, and I am afraid that he had already planned this step. It's just that Lu Bing may not have thought that Yan Hong would be able to find out Zheng Guoqi's jade pendant, because Lu Bing may not have known that there was such a thing in Lu Dao before.

From the perspective of officialdom philosophy, the temptation of this path is very strong. But at least at this moment, Yan Hong doesn't plan to do this. He clearly remembered Feng Xiaoxian's hard work in prison, and most of the people who harmed him like this should be counted on the head of Zheng Xiaoxiang. In this process, the powerful skills of the Zheng family made Yan Hong, who had a clear conscience, intolerable. And the fetus that died innocently and tragically in the mother's womb, although he (she) is just a sinister seed born of cheating, he (she) should not be deprived of life like this, especially the father who is inferior to the beast.

Therefore, Yan Hong took a deep look: "Shibo's care, the little nephew dare not live up to it." However, the little nephew knew that although Wu Lezi was a villain, he should not be wronged. As for that wolf-hearted, dog-hearted, well-dressed scum who killed his wife and children, he must not be allowed to be free in the world. ”

Lu Bing: "Hmm! With a sound, he slapped the table and stood up, staring at Yan Hong with a pair of tiger eyes, seeing the soles of his feet from the top of his head, his eyes caressing the skin and flesh of Yan Hong's clothes inch by inch. Wherever he saw, Yan Hong's was a trembling. However, relying on the stimulation of righteous indignation just now, he still stubbornly stared at Lu Bing. It seems to have returned to the occasion in the first half of the year in Yongheizhuang.

Looking at each other for a moment, Lu Bing smiled: "The left and right are the cases you handled, Yan Ge is going to fight with Zheng Dadutang, why does Lu want to do evil in the middle?" Virtuous nephew, do you know that even if the evidence is conclusive, this Zheng Guoqi is not easy to take. ”

Yan Hongxin said, this is not nonsense? But of course, he was not as familiar with the rules of officialdom as Lu Bing, so he made another gesture: "Please ask Shibo for advice." ”

Lu Bing sighed and sat down, stretched out a finger and said, "Speaking of which, Zheng Guoqi is not just the beloved son of Zheng Dadutang. He is also a son of the new imperial examination and a native of Shilin. Not to mention that he also has the official body of a cabinet secretary. It's not as simple as taking an ordinary person to him. This driving post alone is very difficult to open. ”

Enyin Guan is not a specialty, there are many high-ranking officials in the Manchu Dynasty, and Yan Hong is not the only one without other branches. For example, Zheng Xiao is also a member of the second rank of the national dynasty, and it is not difficult to get a grace official for his old beloved son. Coincidentally, this Zheng Guoqi is the same as Yan Hong at the beginning, and he is carrying the false title of cabinet secretary.

But no matter how false the title is, he can also be regarded as an official. Although everyone will not think of this when you take the imperial examination, when you take someone, the Zheng family will inevitably remember this identity.
