Chapter Seventy-Six: The Tree Falls and Scatters
He also said that he would enter Beijing and beg the emperor to give them justice. But these were all interrupted by Chang Yi, "The words of this prince are what my father means, if you really feel that you are innocent, you can sue the emperor, go to Dali Temple, and let them try this matter." Of course, don't think that the people of the He family will come to save you. ”
At the mention of the He family, they were all silent.
"You know, in the eyes of the He family, you are just chess pieces, who would risk to save a few chess pieces?"
As soon as these words came out, those merchants wanted to cry without tears, they had been working for the He family for so many years, and now they were in danger, but no one came to save them, and even the Chang Governor pretended that nothing had anything to do with him.
Thinking of Chang Governor's Mansion, the man stretched out his hand from the cell and grabbed Chang Governor's clothes, with a look of desire to survive, "Lord Prefect, you must save me, I have worked hard for you for so long, even if there is no merit." ”
Chang Zhifu was so frightened by his move that he hurriedly took a few steps back, his face sank, "What do you mean by working for this prefect?" Who is to blame for your own self-inflicted misfortune and the fate you have ended up in today? ”
Now that the Chang Prefect mud Bodhisattva has crossed the river, it is difficult to protect himself, where is the heart to save them.
The man saw that it was not possible to ask for Chang Prefect's Mansion, so he thought about pulling him into the water, and he stared at Chang Prefect's Mansion with red eyes, "Lord Prefect, don't forget, how did you sit in the prefect's seat, and what evil things you have done in the prefect's mansion over the years are less than those of us present?" If you hadn't instigated us in the first place, how could we have committed such a heinous crime? ”
Chang Zhifu's face turned pale, "You don't want to spew blood." ”
Shen Xi suddenly looked at Chang Zhifu and smiled at him, "Bloody mouth? She looked at Lu Qingyi again and asked, "Is this Chang Prefect innocent?" If I'm not mistaken, he has killed no less than ten people in the ten years since he took office, right? embezzled and accepted bribes of nearly 1,000 taels of silver, which is counted, but it is not too much to cut off his head ten times, right? ”
"It's not good to be an official, you have to do something that has been struck by lightning, and you're not afraid that one day you'll be killed, you are greedy for so much money, how many can you spend? Isn't it useless to keep it at home now? "Shen Xi has always just said that he doesn't open his mouth, and once he speaks, he won't be shocked to death.
Chang Zhifu was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed to Chang Yi, "The three princes, the little ones were all wronged by them, how dare the little ones kill people, how dare they be corrupt and take bribes?" It's just that they were caught, and they just wanted to drag the little ones to hell. ”
"Which one of them here doesn't say that he has been falsely accused? But how many of them have no blood on their hands? Chang Zhifu, are you really a fool to be the prince of this book? "Chang Yi is not stupid, he didn't attack Chang Zhifu in the past few days because he needed help, and he also knew that Chang Zhifu couldn't run, and now that the matter was almost half resolved, he naturally wouldn't let him go.
No one with blood on their hands will admit that they have killed someone, and no one will take the initiative to admit their evil.
"Someone came, took the official of the Chang Governor's Mansion off, put him in a cell, and waited for trial." Chang Yi carried out the task without any ambiguity.
But even so, the elegant temperament on his body still exists.
He is different from Lu Qingyi, Lu Qingyi is a black-bellied and cold-hearted, forbearant person, while Chang Yi is an upright and elegant person with a bit of scholarly temperament, but they are two people with completely different personalities, and they are good brothers who grew up together.
Chang Governor's Mansion was also arrested, and during this day, the whole of Changzhou changed the sky, those who should be arrested were imprisoned in prisons, those who were beheaded were also sent to the beheading platform, and some of the confiscated properties were still lying on their own beds to repair their bodies.
In just two days, they cleared the entire Changzhou.
In Changzhou today, the first rain of early spring was a moderate rain, which was just enough to wash away the blood stains on the headhead. 85
Shen Xi stood at the gate of the courtyard and covered his clothes tightly with his hands, this spring, there is no intention of warming up at all, but a heavy rain, which makes people feel as if it is still winter.
Lu Qingyi stood next to him, and he didn't know what he was thinking, Xu was thinking about what was going on in the capital now, after all, he hadn't received any news in the past few days, and he didn't know if Feng Sheng and they could handle it.
"I never thought that there would be such bad people in this world, who put other people's lives on the line for their own benefit." When Chang Yi came to Changzhou this time, he suddenly realized that there was no evil in this world.
If it is not good for his eyes, it must be good.
"It's because you're too lonely and unheard, and you don't like to fight with people, and you live in the world of books all day long, so you naturally think that the whole world is good."
Shen Xi is a person who has experienced life and death, she used to look at history, and then her own experience later, everything never made her feel that this world is good.
The rain kept falling, and the original plan to go out for a walk fell through, and the three of them could only nest in the house and couldn't go anywhere.
Shen Xi was bored, picked up the pen and began to write a book, since coming to Changzhou, there was a lot of inspiration in her head, she felt that soon, she could publish a new book.
Lu Qingyi and Chang Yi were playing chess and drinking tea, and by the way, they were doing their own things, as if everything was quiet.
At dinner, a scholar brought a letter full of foul language and vulgar words.
These are all scolding Lu Qingyi, looking at the handwriting, it should be written by a person who doesn't read much.
Shen Xi looked at the words inside, and was really angry and vomited blood, "Who are these people!" also wrote anonymous letters to scold people, obviously doing something wrong. ”
It took her a lot of money to find out who the person who wrote the letter from the scholar, and after she knew, she pulled Lu Qingyi and went straight to Changsong Mansion.
Shen Xi directly broke into Chang Song's mansion, and now there are no more people in his mansion, and there are not even a few family members.
It used to be like a city, but now the trees are falling and scattered, the walls are falling and everyone is pushing, and there are many people who fall into the well.
Chang Song was lying on the bed, his mouth was still moaning, his fifty boards really made him have enough of sin.
"Chang Song, you bastard, don't think that if you write an anonymous letter, you can't find out that it's you, you made your own mistakes, why do you still write letters at will to insult others now?" Shen Xi is not a master to provoke, as soon as he came, he forcibly dragged Chang Song out of bed, and his butt hit the ground, and Chang Song, who was not well injured, was so painful that tears broke out in his eyes.
Chang Song looked at Shen Xi with a bitter expression, his face was distorted because of the pain, "My eldest lady, I'm in pain like this, where do I have the energy to write a letter and scold people?" ”
Shen Xi was stunned, "Didn't you write it?" Who else could have written it? When she asked the scholar, he said that the letter had come from his house.
Could it really be that she was mistaken?
