Bai Wuyuan stood there in his official uniform, holding Shang Fang's sword, his expression full of coldness.

Seeing him come out, Bai Wuyuan glanced at him coldly, and the killing intent in him made him immediately collapse to the ground.

If Li Wu didn't know what was going on before, then now there was only one thought left.

Finished.

It's just that he still has some thoughts of struggling, and asked tentatively: "My lord, although the lower official doesn't know if you have misunderstood something, but we can discuss everything." I'm here...... And a few good treasures! ”

When he said this, Li Wu was both weak and flattering.

Now, even if he goes bankrupt, it is better than losing his life now.

Qin Zheng obviously knew what he was doing, otherwise he wouldn't have involved the Red Sleeves and Chunfeng Lou, Li Wu didn't know if he even knew everything about the mine, but the most important thing now was to stabilize them.

However, after hearing his words, Qin Zheng just said indifferently: "Lord Bai, everyone is together." ”

He took down his chin and nodded at these people kneeling on the ground, and then heard Bai Wuyuan say: "This official has been ordered by the emperor to hold the sword of Shang Fang, and act on behalf of the Son of Heaven. Today, when I go to Henan, the distribution of disaster money is one thing, and the punishment of corrupt officials is the second. Today, the county commander of Deng County ordered Li Wu and his subordinates to pervert the law for bribes and prey on the common people, resulting in countless deaths and injuries among the victims. Li Wu, what else do you have to say? ”

Hearing Bai Wuyuan's words, Li Wu's last hope was also shattered.

He subconsciously wanted to put these blames on those subordinates, and shouted loudly: "My lord, the lower officials, the lower officials are all confused by them, I haven't done anything, I am innocent!" ”

However, as soon as he said this, he saw those subordinates looking at him in disbelief.

Immediately, the men began to eat dog-eat-dog.

"Lord Qincha, we are all subordinates, but we are just a dog of Lord Li, if we don't have their instructions, how dare we do these things?"

"Yes, Lord Qincha, please be clear, we are the most innocent!"

A group of people began to blame each other constantly, as if they had been wronged.

And Li Wu, who was praised by them like the Earth Emperor at that ordinary time, has now become a water dog.

Anyway, they were all interrogated last night, and now they know who they should be.

It turns out that Li Wu, the head snake, is not as powerful as this strong dragon from outside, and if he wants to try his best to save his life, he still has to please this Lord Qincha!

And with the identification of these people, the subsequent interrogation was also extraordinarily smooth.

Li Wu's culpability is irrefutable, Bai Wuyuan came to relieve the disaster this time, and he has not much power in his hands, but he still has the power to dispose of a county order.

After temporarily imprisoning the group, Bai Wuyuan ordered people to post a notice, saying that all the people who had grievances could come to complain, and he himself was sitting in the county government of Deng County.

As for Qin Zheng, he was not idle, but took people directly to the mine.

It was also a coincidence, before he left the city, he saw his subordinates arrive with reinforcements, which were the soldiers of the garrison guard.

Qin Zheng left some people to go to the county government to help Bai Wuyuan, and he took the others out of the city quickly.

……

Gu Jiu didn't sleep well this night.

She fell asleep near dawn, and when she woke up again, it was already sunset.

Qin Zheng hasn't come back yet.

If it weren't for the sharp blade beside her, she almost thought it was a dream of herself.

Su Che was left in the post station, and when he saw her get up, he first saluted, and when he heard her ask Qin Zheng, he pondered for a while before replying: "Mrs. Hui, the county order is corrupt and perverts the law, and has been imprisoned by the adults, and now he is about to try the case, and he will not come back for a while." ”

Hearing Su Che's words, Gu Jiu's first reaction was: "Husband, is he okay?" ”

Hearing this, Su Che said respectfully: "Madame, don't worry, my lord is fine, it's just that he told you not to go out now, it's too chaotic outside." ”

After hearing this, although Gu Jiu was a little unsure, he could only nod obediently and said, "Okay." ”

Who knew that at noon, someone came again, and wanted to invite Gu Jiu to the mansion.

"The subordinate is a person from Dali Temple, this is the subordinate waist card, please look at it."

The eyebrows and eyes of that life are cold and hard, and he is covered in wind and frost, and he knows at a glance that he has traveled a long distance.

Gu Jiu recognized him at a glance, he was one of the people who left the big ship some time ago.

"I know you, but what's the matter?"

Gu Jiu saw that Qin Zheng was not seen behind him, and his expression was a little worried.

Hearing this, the man hurriedly replied: "Madame, don't worry, your lord is fine, it's just that he is very busy now, and he has no time to take care of Madame." Now that the garrison guards have arrived in the city, and are now guarding the safety of the palace, my lord asked his wife to go to the palace and stay for the time being, and he will return later. ”

In order to prove the truth of what he said, he also handed over a string of Buddhist beads.

It was what Qin Zheng carried with him.

When Qin Zheng went out of the city, he met the guards coming, thinking that with their protection, the yamen would be safer than the post station, so he simply asked his subordinates to come with his Buddha beads, so as to make a credential.

If time hadn't allowed, he would have liked to come in person.

Seeing Qin Zheng's Buddha beads, Gu Jiu's heart was sour for no reason.

This man must be busy in the dark, but he still remembers himself.

She came with her, thinking of sharing his worries, but who knew that she had caused him trouble.

Gu Jiu sighed in his heart, pinched his Buddha beads, and said softly: "I'm sorry for you, I'll go to the mansion." ”

She didn't have many things with her, so she just cleaned up hastily at this time, and followed Su Che and them to the county magistrate's office.

Who knew that after arriving, I found that this place had already been surrounded by water.

The carriage couldn't move forward, Su Che was worried about being unsafe, so he let the carriage stop here first, and he went over to investigate.

After a while, he came back and said respectfully, "Madam, we can't walk over there, we need to walk for a while." ”

Hearing this, even though Gu Jiudang got out of the car, he asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Just now she was a little worried when she saw so many people around, thinking that there was some kind of people's riot?

Who knew that when I got closer at this time, I realized that this was not the case.

And on the contrary, there seems to be cries and cheers here, as if something is being expressed with real feelings.

Hearing Gu Jiu's inquiry, Su Che replied softly: "Mrs. Hui, Lord Bai is sitting in the county government, and the people who have grievances have come to complain." ”

As they spoke, they approached the front, and sure enough, they heard someone crying loudly: "The great lord is wise, this dog official's death is not enough to atone for his sins!" ”

As the man's voice fell, he heard the echo of the mountain and the tsunami.

And most of them are crying.

Gu Jiu didn't know what was going on, but he also knew that Li Wu was not a good thing.

Seeing this now, although I don't know the situation inside, I can hear the voice, but I can't help but feel sour.

This voice is to see hope in the midst of a long period of despair.

Although it was excited, it was more like a mournful sound.

There is such an official in Deng County, and the people don't know how many sins they have suffered!

Seeing that he couldn't walk over, Gu Jiu simply followed the detour.

Walking in through the side door of the yamen, she followed all the way to the backyard, but saw that everything was in a mess.

It's not because of anything else, after Li Wu was investigated, those relatives had nowhere to escape, but the subordinates could run.

Those who were greedy took the opportunity to carry some of the valuable things in it.

However, it is fine for one person to do this, but when the people do it, the house looks messy.

There are not enough people in Dali Temple, and those people are not guilty in essence, and the people they mainly take care of are still the relatives of the inner house.

In addition, I know that these people are not less oppressed, so I just turn a blind eye.

But this also led to the fact that after Gu Jiu went, he found that there was no place to put his feet here.

Seeing this, Su Che discussed with those people, and then said respectfully: "There is really no place here, why don't you take a break in the front yard first?" ”

Most of the backyards are inhabited by women, and even the rooms that can be entered smell of rouge and gouache, but because they are too strong, they smell unpleasant.

And because the front yard is an office place, it is the Li Wu bastard, but in the end it is cleaner than here.

After hearing his words, Gu Jiu naturally nodded in agreement, and after passing over, he finally got a little clear.

It's just that the cry of the yamen in front can still be faintly heard, mixed with the words of those people.

"Su Che, if you're not busy, help me ask what's going on."

Hearing Gu Jiu's words, Su Che first looked around, and when he saw that it was all their people here, he put his mind at ease and said respectfully: "Yes, my subordinates will go." ”

He went and returned after a short time, and told the cause and effect, and Gu Jiu couldn't help but be frightened when he heard it.

At the same time, he was extremely angry: "This Li Wu is so bold? ”

This is too bold, relying on the sky high and the emperor is far away, he will do whatever he wants!

Hearing this, Su Che replied: "Madame doesn't know, this Li Wu has been in Deng County for many years, and he will work up and down to hide the affairs here. In the past, officials came to inspect, but after being bribed by him, they were all gone. This time the adults came, it was the end of this group of moths. ”

But what he didn't say was that the people felt very happy about this matter at the moment, but they didn't know how many moths they would have to bring out.

After all, if this matter of Deng County only relied on Li Wu alone, he would definitely not be able to hide it from the world like this.

Hearing Su Che's words, Gu Jiu frowned slightly, and said, "Let's go, let's go to the county government to have a look." ”

With just Su Che's words, although Gu Jiu felt that her husband was doing the right thing, she also had a sense of crisis.

Admittedly, this is a good thing.

But it is said that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, Qin Zheng has now served this nest of head snakes, who knows that the people behind him will not jump over the wall in a hurry?

After all, this interest ...... It's just too big.

With this in mind, she got up and went to the side door of the lobby to look out at the trial from the inside.

Gu Jiu wasn't curious, he just felt that what Qin Zheng did should at least be fully supported by the emperor.

And the people look inconspicuous and soft-spoken, but the water can carry the boat and capsize the boat, one person's voice may not be enough to attract attention, but hundreds of people and thousands of people, it will be huge.

This afternoon, Gu Jiudu stood by the side door, and it was not until the last person who complained left that the trial was temporarily over.

Bai Wuyuan knew earlier that there was someone at the side door, but he didn't want to see that the person there was Gu Jiu.

He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled in surprise: "Madam Qin is fine, why are you here?" ”

Gu Jiu saluted him and said with a smile: "Look at Lord Bai's judgment of the case - the Lord is discerning, and the judgment of the case is selfless, and he is really worthy of the four words of honesty and honesty in the mouths of the people." ”

Hearing the compliment in her words, Bai Wuyuan smiled modestly and said, "The first time Xia Guan dealt with this, it made Mrs. Qin laugh. ”

Hearing this, Gu Jiu pursed his lips slightly, and said again: "Lord Bai, I don't know the file of today's case file, can you lend me a look?" ”

Her request was not excessive, Bai Wuyuan naturally agreed, Gu Jiu smiled and thanked him, and after walking over to get the files, he heard Bai Wuyuan say again: "There are too many of these files, if Madam is interested, you can take them back and read them first, and then return them early tomorrow morning." ”

As soon as these words came out, Gu Jiu was surprised, and said with a smile: "My lord, aren't you afraid that I will steal the file?" ”

Seeing this, Bai Wuyuan smiled helplessly: "Madam, look at these files, is there any value that can be stolen?" ”

Most of this is evidence of how the county order and the doglegs prey on the people. But even if there are no these, just relying on the two crimes of the mine and the Chunfeng Lou Dark Alley, their heads, Bai Wuyuan will be picked steadily!

Hearing what he said, Gu Jiu just hooked his lips and didn't say anything else, only said, "In this way, thank you Lord Bai." ”

She wanted these files, naturally, not to steal them.

It's just a matter of transcribing something.

……

Because the officers and soldiers were all in the palace, everyone rested at the government office at night.

Gu Jiu was a female dependent, so the soldiers vacated a house in the backyard for her to live in.

This room should have been the main room before, although the decoration inside was magnificent, in the end there was a little less bewitching rouge, plus the newly changed bedding, Gu Jiu lived quite well.

In the early summer night, the heat of the day has not yet dissipated, and although the window is open, you can still feel the heat.

Usually when I was in Beijing, I should use ice cubes in the house, and there would be chilled fruits to eat every day.

Even in her previous life, Qin Zheng had never treated her badly in this regard, and her share of the Ninth Court had never been less.

Although she was weak and deceitful in her previous life, most of her anger was artificial, and when she was in the Gu family, she didn't have too many tribulations in this kind of life.

Gu Jiu didn't think it was at home before, but now that Qin Zheng came out, she realized that what Qin Zheng said was very serious about what she said to herself.

At least sometimes, Gu Jiu, as Miss Jiao, has never been subjected to.

For example, now.

She was so hot and impetuous, she simply closed the window, took off her coat, and took a book and put it on her own.

It's just that the wind is hot, and Gu Jiu, who was excited, poured two or three cups of herbal tea to be considered better.

She let out a long breath before she felt a little more comfortable, and she could hear footsteps outside.

"Who?"

The next moment, I heard the man's calm voice, and immediately saw him push the door in: "It's me." ”

Seeing that it was Qin Zheng, Gu Jiu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, she hadn't seen her for a day and a night, which made her both worried and worried, and hurriedly walked over.

Who knew the next moment, but felt that it was dark in front of him.

But it was the man who held himself in his arms, and at the same time he eagerly closed the door, and a slightly rough voice: "Why don't you get dressed properly?!" ”

As soon as he entered the door, he was greeted with such a big surprise.

However, although he was pleasantly surprised, he not only couldn't bear it, but also had to wrap people tightly.

Due to the heat, Qin Zheng's robe was still sweaty, and it didn't hurt that he only had his middle coat left, but Gu Jiu was directly choked and sneezed.

"Are you digging coal, your clothes are dirty?"

The little girl rarely showed a little disgust, and poked a head out of her clothes, while complaining: "I'm too hot, cool off in the room for a while." Who knew that you had come back suddenly—I hadn't said anything, why did you come to the enemy first? ”

When Gu Jiu said this, he looked at Qin Zheng with a smile again, and asked in a low voice, "What, is it because I'm not good-looking?" ”

In the end, she was really bold in what she said, Qin Zheng was a little impetuous, but he knocked her head helplessly, and said with a serious face: "Go, put on your clothes." ”

When he said this, he took his robe back, but when he saw the little girl's dress, he felt a little more angry.

Whoever sees that their hearts are like this, if they don't react at all, then it's not normal, right?

Even if he can't do anything now, Qin Zheng collected some interest first.

"Hmm......"

Before Gu Jiu could say anything, he was directly hugged by someone.

Her eyes widened suddenly, but when she saw Qin Zheng's eyes glowing, she closed her eyes with a red face.

It wasn't until she was a little weak that Qin Zheng kindly let her go.

"Will you recruit me again next time?"

It was obvious that he was a scoundrel himself, and in the end, he actually blamed himself.

Gu Jiu was a little angry for a while, but the person in front of her was really domineering, and the little girl could only bite her lip and change the topic: "Why are you only coming back now?" ”

Her cheeks were red, and the expression of changing the topic was too obvious, which caused Qin Zheng to kiss her a few times lovingly, and then replied with a smile: "I'm a little busy today, isn't it okay to compensate Mrs. for another day?" ”

He had indeed been out for too long since last night.

Qin Zheng felt a little self-reproach in his heart, the original idea was to take her out for a spin by the way, but now he threw himself here.

However, Gu Jiu didn't take these things to heart, but shook his head with a smile and said, "You originally came out for business, so naturally you have to focus on those things." It's good for me to stay in the post station by myself, and I went to the yamen in the afternoon to listen to Lord Bai's verdict. ”

When she said this, she remembered another thing, because she took Qin Zheng's hand and said, "You come with me." ”
