Chapter 49 The Public Court
Hearing Ximenqing say something solemn, the old steward didn't dare to slack off, and said: "Don't be polite to the virtuous nephew, since there is something, nothing should be allowed." β
Ximen Qing smiled and said: "In this case, the little nephew is not polite to the Wusun Treasure Knife and borrows it!" β
"Huh?" Looking at the mysterious smile on Ximenqing's face, Lao Guan Ying and Shi En's father and son glanced at each other, and they both felt inexplicable.
As soon as the prefect of Mengzhou opened this morning, his sleepy eyes were still relaxed, and he encountered two complaints.
The first one to crash in was the famous young man of Mengzhou City, Jinyan Biao Shien. Shi En put a long stack of papers on his head and cried: "My lord, the villain is wronged, ask the adult to make the decision for the villain!" β
On weekdays, the Shi family didn't look up and looked down, and the prefect had never seen Shi Enshi's small management camp so down-and-out, and he couldn't help but learn that the lord of the house was not curious, so he said with a straight face: "What are you wrong, come quickly, and the official will make the decision for you!" β
Shi En gritted his teeth and said, "The villain wants to sue someone!" β
The prefect motioned to the scribe beside him to collect the letter of grace, and asked, "But I don't know who Shi Xiaoguanying wants to sue?" β
Shi En thumped his chest and paused: "My lord, I want to sue Na Ximenqing!" I sued this person for seeming loyalty, treacherous, he lived in the villain's house for a month, the road inside and outside my house, are all familiar, taking advantage of this morning the villain accompanied his mother to the Guanyin Temple incense opportunity, he suddenly showed a hideous face, snatched our Shi family's ancestral Wusun treasure knife, and injured my family Xiaofei, my husband was frightened, and now he can't be a director. Pushing the source of the disaster, it is all because of this Ximenqing, begging the adults to quickly send a sea fishing document, arrest this Ximenqing, and return the treasure knife of my Shi family. It's what I wanted! β
This little thing, the prefect naturally agreed, and immediately drafted an official document, ordering the government to arrest the fraud and robbery criminal Ximen Qing, and Shi En retreated with great gratitude.
Shi En walked out of the court on the front foot, and someone came up on the back foot to complain. It turned out that it was the theft of the mansion of Lord Zhang last night, and the suspect Wu Song was caught, because the case was complicated, Zhang Du Jian was difficult to decide, so he was transferred to the Mengzhou Mansion Court, and asked the prefect to judge the case.
The prefect ordered to take someone to commit the crime, so Wu Song, the housekeeper of Zhang's mansion, and the two companions who accompanied him were all escorted to the court. The prefect saw that one person was a confidant of Zhang Dujian on weekdays, one person was the housekeeper in Zhang Dujian's house, and two were family members in Zhangdu's prison, so he didn't dare to slack off, and he had enough brainpower to detail it for a long time, but unfortunately his wisdom was limited after all, and it was difficult to find out if he wanted to break his head, so he had to pretend to cough deeply, and ordered him to temporarily withdraw from the court, and put all the prisoners in prison first, so that the trial could start in the future.
Whoever wants to leave the hall will not be at peace, and there has long been Zhang Dujian waiting in the back hall, saying that there are major topics to discuss with the prime minister. The prefect did not dare to slack off, came to finish the ceremony, sat and listened to Zhang Dujian's tongue and lotus flower, portraying Ximenqing as a spy in Western Xia, and Shi En and Wu Song were on the side to help, but they were not without suspicion.
When the prefect heard this, he couldn't help but laugh "hehe", and said: "Brother Zhang, if you say that you are scheming, then Ximen Qing is there, and his people do not hesitate to call Shi Xiaoguan a brother and brother in order to seek a Wusun treasure knife for the Shi family, and after being familiar with the Shi family for a month, after getting in and out of love, he suddenly started this morning, snatched the treasure knife and went away If he is a spy, you must know that the spy is not deep, and he is willing to do this because of a small loss for a sharp weapon? β
Looking at Zhang Dujian's stunned face, the prefect said again: "Ximenqing grabbed the knife and left, the government opened early this morning, and the small Shi Guan Camp has already handed over the first complaint." If the Shi family and the Western Xia spies have some heads, how can they do this to destroy the Great Wall? β
Zhang Dujian was stunned for a long time before he said: "My lord, this Shi family has moved from the Western Regions!" I can't be sure that they have any collusion with Nasichsha, and there is! β
Prefect hahadaxiao: "Brother Zhang is a military attachΓ© in the end, but he is too worried." It must be known that the Shi family moved here during the Tang Dynasty, and the Western Xia had not yet established a country at that time! Brother Zhang went home and flipped through the history books, and naturally understood. β
Zhang Du listened to the prefect's tone, and there was the kind of contemptuous mockery of the military attache that was unique to civil officials, and he was secretly angry in his heart, knowing that this prefect was a strong donkey, since he had a preconceived idea in his heart, then he would never want to move him again. The expectation of instigating him to go to Anping Village to search for Western Xia spies is even more Hughty!
I can't help but hate in my heart, that Ximen Qing didn't grab the knife in the morning and didn't grab the knife in the evening, but just when his clever plan was about to be launched, he suddenly grabbed the knife, he didn't care about it, but he made his chain plan broken, and the ring was damaged, where can it be connected?
Under the hatred in Zhang Dujian's heart, he simply vented his anger on Wu Song's body, clapped his hands at the moment, and his own subordinates brought in a small box.
"...... this?" The prefect asked.
Zhang Dujian said respectfully: "My lord, didn't there be a theft in the villain's house last night?" This is the stolen goods. As he spoke, he opened the box, but there was a pile of gold and silver wine vessels with plaques inside, and the light was almost dazzling the eyes of the prefect.
Looking at the twinkling stars in the eyes of the prefect, Zhang Dujian sneered in his heart, and continued to say respectfully: "My lord, these stolen goods should be confiscated, if they are confiscated to me, but it is unreasonable, it is better to be confiscated here, it is the justice of heaven, and there is no flaw." I can only hate the guilty prisoner Wu Song, I treat him with the grace of heaven and earth, but he will take revenge and steal my property, this breath is not out, what face do I have in this Mengzhou City? Please interrogate the thief with the army, find out the thief's situation, and give the subordinate a mouthful of pickled evil spirit! β
When the prefect saw the gold and silver, he had already lost his soul, and after listening to Zhang Dujian's request, he only nodded again and again, and agreed without a word. But I thought in my heart: "Since you keep saying that Wu Song stole it, then these things must not be stolen by Wu Song, such a superficial truth, although I love money, but how can I not understand the reason?" But receiving people's money and eliminating disasters with others, even if this Wu Song is wronged, he can't take care of it! β
At that moment, he happily sent Zhang Dujian away, and was about to ascend to the court again to try Wu Song's theft case, but a family member came to report: "Master, Shi Xiaoguanying begged to see him carrying a weighty box in his hand!" β
When the prefect heard this, he was overjoyed, and thought: "This must be the little management camp who is afraid that I will arrest Ximenqing, so my favor is here!" His Shi family runs the happy forest, the mountains of gold and silver flow in an uproar, but the filial piety on weekdays is as light and tasteless as radish rice. Today, taking advantage of the robbery of his family's heirloom knife, I also took two dollars from the Shi family's oil pot to spend it! β
When he thought about it in his heart, the smile on his face was extremely sweet, and he commanded: "Hurry up, please!" "I have already pushed the matter of opening the court to try Wu Song to the back of my mind. This is exactly what it is:
If you are rich and rich, you can still stretch out your hand, and there is no way to turn back. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
