In the Daliang Dynasty, the prefect was the head of a government, and there were two co-knowledge and one general judgment. [No pop-ups. The general judgment and another co-governor are not in Qingchuan Mansion but out of other places under the jurisdiction of the town government, and only Ma Teng, who assists the prefect in handling general affairs in the capital city, is relatively large in the background of Jingcheng, so the Zhang prefect, who has always wanted to monopolize the rights of the city of Fucheng, has always wanted to find an opportunity to get rid of Ma Teng.

Last year, I heard that Ma Teng lost the emperor's heart in the background of the capital, and the prefect of Zhang began to find Ma Teng's fault, but Ma Teng was careful enough, and it took almost a year to find out the leakage of 100,000 taels of silver on this account, I wanted to take this opportunity to bring down Ma Teng, but I didn't want him to come and lose the car to protect the handsome, so he actually pushed out his henchman Ai Shan to be a substitute for the dead! How could Governor Zhang be willing, so all kinds of torture tools were swinged, and Ai Shan was tortured, hoping that he could pull Ma Teng into the water, but this Ai Shan was stubborn, and he clenched his teeth and did not let go.

Soon, Governor Zhang also lost his patience, and he wanted to be promoted to the court to try the case, but he didn't want Ma Teng to be 'sick'. It is said that Ma Teng is only in charge of grain and salt taxation and river engineering and water conservancy, and it is not Ma Teng's turn to come to listen to the criminal arrest and questioning of the case, but in order to disgust Ma Teng, the prefect of Zhang was stunned and waited until he was 'cured' before he began to ascend to the court.

When he was promoted to the court, all the witness evidence pointed to Ai Laohu, alleging that he embezzled the 100,000 taels of silver and used his position to make false accounts. Where is Ai Laohu willing to admit it? As soon as the board came down, the skin opened and R bloomed, but he refused to admit it.

Seeing that Ma Teng was sitting as if he was fine, Governor Zhang was angry in his heart, so he asked Ai Laohu, "Isn't it that you are greedy for this silver?" So where did the money go? This account was found in your house, but to whom did you give this money to because you were greedy for it? ”

"Ahem!" Ai Laohu coughed twice, laboriously swallowed the blood that almost gushed out of his throat, and said laboriously: "Xiaguan doesn't know what the adults are talking about, and they don't know what the account book is. The lower officials have always been worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, and Master Ma can testify. As he spoke, he glanced at Ma Teng, who was sitting in the public hall.

Ma Teng's heart was weak, and he was extremely uncomfortable to be looked at by Ai Laohu, so he got up and said angrily: "Bold, you dare to quibble?" If someone comes, give the official a hard beating, and don't believe that he won't recruit! ”

Zhang Zhifu didn't do it, and he didn't care if Ai Laohu was beaten or not, but this Ma Teng was obviously robbing him of his words! couldn't help sneering and said, "Why should Master Ma be in a hurry? It's just after the rod is about to be beaten, isn't it because you want to kill people and kill people? ”

Ma Teng is not a vegetarian, so he got up directly and wanted to leave, "This criminal arrest and questioning case is not in my hands, if it weren't for the fear of the adult's mercy, I wouldn't have to come to join in the fun!" ”

"Wait! Master Ma is in a hurry to leave, isn't this related to you? You must know that this Aishan is a government that you recommend to enter! "How could Governor Zhang let people leave so easily.

"Hmph, ridiculous! This official is brave and loyal to the emperor, how could he do such an illegal thing for his own selfish interests! Master Zhang, don't smear the official if he can't solve the case! ”

"How is it a smear?" Governor Zhang sneered and asked Ai Laohu, who was kneeling in the hall, "Ai Shan, this official asked you, what explanation do you have to make for the account book found in your home?" It's been a few years since the handwriting and paper were new. ”

Ai Laohu didn't even look at the account book brought by the officer, and said indifferently: "Adult, the villain has been lonely since he was a child, and he didn't go to the school for a day, and he couldn't even recognize a few big characters, so how could he keep accounts?" Therefore, the villain does not know about this ledger. ”

"You can't read, so what did the governor of the Governor's Division do here?" Governor Zhang asked deliberately.

"Ahem!" Ma Teng cleared his throat slightly uncomfortably.

Ai Laohu said directly: "Back to my lord, it was Lord Ma who introduced a Cui tent to the lower officials, and all the account books are in charge of the Cui tent, and the adults can ask him." ”

When he came up to Cui's tent, he naturally denied it, and said that he had never seen those account books at all.

At this time, Ma Teng suggested: "Since I can't ask now, why don't I go and pass on the insiders of Aishan, maybe they will know something about the account book!" But he thought in his heart that as long as Fang Su said that the account book was taken home by Ai Shan, he would not be able to get rid of his sin at that time.

So, the prefect of Zhang sent two groups of people, one to pass on Fang Su, and the other to pass on the autumn color.

Zhujian Lane is closer to the government office, so the autumn color arrives relatively early.

"The folk woman Ding has seen the adult." As soon as he entered the lobby, Qiu Ze bowed his head and knelt down respectfully and kowtowed.

"Yes." Governor Zhang nodded and asked Qiu Se directly, "Ding, do you recognize the person kneeling next to you?" ”

Only then did Qiu Se raise her eyes and turn her head to look, this sight couldn't help but startle her, and her heart trembled. I haven't seen Ai Laohu for a few days, how did he become like this? I saw that Ai Laohu's hair was scattered, the beard on his chin seemed to be longer, his face was dirty, and he couldn't tell whether it was blood or mud, and the white prison clothes on his body were wrinkled, and they were also dirty, and there were some faint dark marks.

Ai Laohu also raised his head and glanced at the autumn color, and his moist eyes, which were even more round, stared at the autumn color, and there seemed to be remorse and guilt in those eyes, and there were some things that the autumn color did not understand.

"Ding, do you recognize the people around you?" Governor Zhang was shocked and asked again.

Ai Laohu lowered his head again, and Qiu Se also retracted his gaze and said: "Lord Hui, the people recognize him, he is my ex-husband." ”

"Oh...... Yes? What the? Ex? Governor Zhang was suddenly stunned, and hurriedly asked again.

Ma Teng next to him was also stunned, and couldn't help but get up and say, "Nonsense, why did Aishan become your ex-husband?" Didn't you go to the official for his business a few days ago......" Ma Teng suddenly intercepted the words and said hatefully: "Don't think that you can get away with the money that Ai Shan gave you if you are divorced!" ”

It just so happened that Fang Su also arrived at this time, and with the same question, Fang Su answered differently.

"Lord Hui, he is the father-in-law of the people's women."

Governor Zhang said: "This is strange, you two are obviously Aishan's wives, why do one say that he is his ex-husband and the other says that he is the father-in-law?" ”

"Huh?" Fang Su looked at Qiu Se and Ai Laohu, who were kneeling next to him, in surprise, and didn't understand what was going on.

Ai Laohu also turned his head to look at Qiu Se who was kneeling next to him, and thought, could it be that Qiu Niang was still annoyed with Su Niang, so she deliberately didn't give the book to Fang Su? Wouldn't this hurt Fang Su? He glared at Autumn Colors with great disapproval.

Qiu Se ignored the gazes of others, took out the letter from his sleeve pocket and handed it to the official next to him, and continued: "Lord Hui, the woman made peace with Ai Shan a few days ago, so at this moment he is her ex-husband. ”

"How is that possible? How did I not know? "The first to shout out was Fang Su, if Qiu Se had really been reconciled, would she still be able to put her into a situation of no return?

Qiu Se glanced back at Fang Su with a smile, "Why is it impossible?" Why do I have to let you know about what happened between me and him? ”

Ai Laohu knelt between the two women and was anxious and angry, and shouted in a low voice: "Qiu Niang, why are you ......?"

"Shut up!" Qiu Se knew that Ai Laohu was going to ask Fang Su about He Lishu, so she hurriedly interrupted him and secretly gave him a look.

"You ......" Ai Laohu didn't understand what was going on, but he wasn't stupid, so he suppressed the doubts and anxiety in his heart and closed his mouth.

"Look, my lord, they and Lili are fake at all, and they were still there just now!" Fang Su screamed as if he had caught some important evidence.

The whole hall looked at Fang Su very strangely, even if Ai Laohu and Qiu Se were not really reconciled, it shouldn't be her who said it, right? Isn't this tearing down one's own platform? Ai Laohu also looked at Fang Su on the right side strangely, and always felt that Fang Su was a little weird just now.

Fang Su saw that everyone was looking at him and gradually came back to his senses, and his voice gradually lowered.

Governor Zhang looked at the book of harmony and departure presented by Qiu Color, read it carefully, and asked strangely: "Why is the date of your harmony and departure exactly the day before Ai Shan was imprisoned?" ”

Ma Teng seized the opportunity and ridiculed Qiu Se: "It seems that this and the book are really fake, and it is also, Ai Shan has been going to you for the night recently, and it naturally doesn't make sense to write the date too forward, but isn't it even more far-fetched for you to write the day before you are imprisoned?" ”

"Your Excellency is wrong." Qiu Se raised his head and looked at Ma Teng and said: "The date of this and the departure is not the day before Ai Shan was imprisoned, but the day after he wrote the book and the divorce of the lawsuit, when we wrote this and the divorce book, none of us knew that he would have this kind of disaster, if we knew, we would have thought of avoiding the disaster a long time ago!" ”

Ma Teng choked, and said angrily: "You woman don't come to quibble, how can you say that it's not still a day!" ”

Where is the autumn color willing to recognize, "How is it a quibble?" According to the adults, didn't we know that there was such a catastrophe and the intention to write and leave the book in advance? ”

This is what Ma Teng is puzzled about, why did this and the date of leaving the book so coincidentally the day before? It is absolutely impossible to say that they knew in advance, but who has the ability to forge a letter of separation afterwards? And he also read it just now, that signature is indeed Aishan, yes!

"How can my sister do this? Seeing that Xianggong had an accident, he did such a ruthless thing? Fang Su learned the lesson of his recklessness just now, and turned to accuse Qiu Se bitterly, "No matter what Xianggong does, he is our Xianggong!" How can you be so ruthless? How dare you forge and deviate from documents? Sister, let's admit your mistake quickly, lest the adults get angry and hit your board! ”

"Yes, yes, your document is fake, even if it is not fake, it has not been filed with the government, and it will not be counted." Ma Teng was overjoyed in his heart, and followed Fang Su's words and said it.

"Why does Master Ma have to think that my separation document is fake? It's not that I don't want to file with the government, if Aishan doesn't have an accident, we will file it with the government as early as the next day. Qiu Shi ignored the crooked Fang Su, and directly faced Ma Teng, who had been looking for her stubble.
