"Special note, although these needles are stabbed towards the death point, almost every one of them is slightly biased, as if a novice did it, and the force of these needles falling into is unstable so that several of them are bent in the body, if it is not because the person who is under the needle is too scared in his heart, it is because this person is not strong enough."

The civil official also knew that there was a person he couldn't afford to provoke, so he quickly and honestly wrote down the words one by one, and only after writing them did he respectfully present them to Cong.

Cong Yi carefully read it and confirmed that it was correct, signed his name in the lower right corner like a ghost, and then swayed out of the morgue of the prison of the Criminal Department.

The cold breeze outside was dazzling and the sun was dazzling, and there was already a carriage from King Yi's Mansion waiting here, Cong Yi stretched his waist, and the carriage of King Yi's Mansion stopped directly in front of him with a turn.

"Sir, my lord specially ordered a villain to pick you up."

Cong Yi also knew that he would not be able to get off the thief ship for a while, so he gladly accepted, "Even if his kid has a conscience, he didn't let me go back by myself," After speaking, he waved his hand at the small broken carriage in the palace behind him, "Go back, Lao Tzu went home and went to sleep." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was stopped by someone shouting from behind before he could get into the carriage.

"Sir, stay!"

Cong Yi turned his head and looked over impatiently, but saw that it was Fang Peng who hurriedly chased him out, he stood by the carriage and saluted respectfully, "Can Xia Guan say a word to Mr. alone?" ”

Cong Fang saw the kick he secretly stretched out to Zhao Yuan, and he had a good impression of the young man in front of him, Cong Yi retreated to the carriage and walked two steps not far away, although it was still in the public's field of vision, but at least others couldn't hear the content of the conversation, Cong Yi stood still, "Let's talk about it here." ”

Fang Peng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the person in front of him who seemed to be arrogant and arrogant would be so careful, because in the public's field of vision, this matter was not 'private', if it was criticized by someone with a heart, the two of them could also say that it was just a conversation, and it was naturally not a simple matter to make Fang Peng take such a risk.

Fang Peng saluted again, "Thank you, sir, the reason why the lower officials are so reckless is because Lord Li is a unique good official, if you can help him with a few kind words in front of His Majesty, Lord Li will have a better chance of surviving." ”

Cong Yi hugged his stomach and looked at the young man in front of him with interest, and raised his chin, "You want to talk about the silver needle, do you think that if this matter is hidden, if we can hide it, it will definitely reduce a lot of Li Kang's suspicions, right?" ”

"The lower officials don't dare, but I can be sure that Lord Li was framed, and you have seen the situation today, those who dare to speak are all aimed at Lord Li and others, and the rest are just rabble."

"Isn't there still you?"

Fang Peng was stunned for a moment, "Sir, don't be sarcastic about me, my mere squire is weak, and how much can I help Master Li." ”

"You can't help much, but you can see that just people are helping him, how much does all these powers add up?" Cong Yi patted Fang Peng on the shoulder, "I'm going to do what I should do, naturally I shouldn't have any feelings, I only try my best to report what I found truthfully, you should have confidence in Li Kang's integrity, and believe that no matter what evidence is, it can't destroy the fact that he was useless." ”

Fang Peng was a little surprised that these words actually came from the mouth of a seemingly cynical person.

Cong Yi naturally understood what he meant by this look, and laughed, "You are still too young, and your eyes are full of right and wrong without intermediate excesses, and you will understand if you are an official for a few years in the future." ”

Fang Peng's expression became more serious, "Even if it is ten or twenty years later, I will not be like them who are indistinguishable from right and wrong!" ”

"It's good that you can retain your true nature at that time, but more importantly, you won't come to talk to me privately because of this kind of thing at that time," Cong Yi's hand on Fang Peng's shoulder slapped it twice, "It's good that you have black and white in your heart, but you can't look for something because you believe in it, everything has been seen and you can still make you believe that you are a mature good official." ”

After Cong Yi finished speaking, he waved his hand and got directly into the carriage of King Yi's mansion, Fang Peng was stunned in place for a long time and couldn't recover his senses, and when he understood the meaning of his words, he turned back and his eyes were already full of respect.

Cong Yi's autopsy results were copied in two copies, one was sent directly to the palace, and the other was sent to Duan Jingqi, the chief judge of the case.

At this time, Duan Jingqi was busy combing through the files of Guo Yi's case in the hall of the Criminal Department in order to avoid suspicion and did not go to the prison, he thought that there would be no change in this matter, but he didn't expect that Guo Yi still had a silver needle hidden in his body.

Duan Jingqi thought for a moment and decided to tell Li Kang the truth, he first called someone to report the news to the Yi Wangfu, and then he only brought two personal entourages to the prison where the felons were imprisoned in the Criminal Department.

All the prisoners here are imperial court officials, and Li Kang is naturally here because of his official residence, Duan Jingqi asked someone to send Li Kang a few idle poetry books as soon as he arrived at the Criminal Department this morning to facilitate him to pass the boring time in prison.

At this time, Li Kang was standing under the window of the dungeon, facing the light and slowly flipping through the book in his hand, when he heard the guard's high salute, he hurriedly turned around, and at this time Jingqi had already walked over and stood in front of his cell door.

Li Kang looked overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed, and his iron chain rattled with the movements, "The old minister visited the prince, thank you for your compassion, this is exactly what I think in my heart." ”

"Master Li, please get up," Duan Jingqi looked at his gray hair and felt bitter in his heart, "I really admire you for being in such a state of mind when you are in prison." ”

Li Kang waved his hand, "Because the minister knows that he is innocent, and he will see the light again one day, so why hesitate in these few days." ”

Duan Jingqi choked in his throat, but still told the truth about what Cong Yi found today, and said that Emperor Duan sent someone to follow the autopsy, so this report did not have time to pause at all, and was directly sent to the palace.

originally thought that Li Kang, who was looking forward to regaining his light, would be depressed and negative after hearing this, but he didn't want him to smile and comfort Duan Jingqi who was full of apologies.

"Lao Chen also thinks that the person who framed me will not make the bureau so simple, so it seems that I guessed correctly, then I will have more days to study with peace of mind, which is also very good."

Duan Jingqi frowned involuntarily, "There is darkness in the prison, I will definitely try my best to return your innocence as soon as possible!" ”

"The prince doesn't need to blame himself for being sad, it's no wonder you," Li Kang's expression was soft, and in private, he didn't have the unsmiling seriousness of the past when he was in the court and in the official position, but now he looked like a kind elder, "The old minister knows that you want to save my heart, but now how many pairs of eyes are staring at you on the cusp of this matter, you must be careful everywhere, and only after saving yourself can you save the old minister, but you don't dare to take risks." ”

Duan Jingqi nodded and was moved beyond measure, "Father also knows that you are a loyal minister, but you can't be openly exonerated from crime, so it will inevitably make you suffer more grievances." ”

"The old minister knows that there will never be complaints, Lord Wang, you have stayed here for too long, this is not the place you should come, please go up."

Duan Jingqi nodded, just walked a few steps and turned back, his voice was a few points lower than just now, "Father sent troops to garrison the Li Mansion day and night, I think I came to avoid the whispers of others and to protect your relatives in disguise, and everything is fine on the girl's side." ”

Li Kang breathed a long sigh of relief, and the affection in his eyes could not be hidden, "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you to the prince, as long as the words are safe, the minister will rest assured!" ”

……

On the other side, in King Yi's mansion, Duan Jingyi took the cub back early, and the Karakuri toys prepared by the order were also bought, Duan Jingyi just wanted to take the opportunity to contact Tang Mengduo with Tang Mengduo to ask for forgiveness, when he heard Cong Yi shouting and entered the door, and he was followed by the subordinate sent by Duan Jingqi to report to Duan Jingyi.

Cong Yi stood at the door, he was not interested in the food on the table, and said directly, "This kid has something to say, give me a pot of wine, otherwise I will poison him dumb." ”

The little guy who came to deliver the letter was so frightened that he said that he was the henchman of Prince Qi, and in front of him, this person pretended to be kind enough to show him the way, and he could find Yi Wangye, why did he turn his face when he arrived at the place? I also want to poison myself, and more importantly, I am dumb just to exchange for wine!

Frightened, this little guy hurriedly spoke, "Lord, my master ......"
