Chapter 139: Seeking Benevolence
Sun Yue stood behind, with seven or eight soldiers, and a rosin stood next to him.
Rosin Xiang just followed the plan, pinched the point to the front to report the news, and shouted all the way that someone had set it on fire.
At that time, the state governor had already arrived, and he was dispatching firefighting, and when he heard someone report arson, he pointed to Sun Yue and asked him to find out.
Rosin Xiang successfully brought the people from the official mansion over, and just happened to bump into such a big scene, Deng Shi breathed a sigh of relief, he took a few steps forward, pointed to the yellow-haired woman who had been restrained by the dart master, and turned his head to Sun Yue and said: "Official, she is going to set fire to the robbery!" ”
And again: "There is also an accomplice ......"
Before he finished speaking, Qiu Yue inside had already shouted and said, "The accomplice is here!" ”
The soldiers hurriedly removed the large vat that blocked the door and rushed in.
Without Sun Yue's orders, someone had already stepped forward to pick up a few things on the ground, looked at them in their hands, turned their heads to Sun Yue and said, "Sun Guanren, it's a fire fold!" ”
As he spoke, he ran over and presented the bamboo tubes to Sun Yue.
Sun Yue took a bamboo tube, took out a long and flat cylindrical rope inside, and with a slight shake, the head of the rope immediately burst into a few sparks and burst into flames.
His face changed.
This is a special fire fold, which is made of sweet potato vine and cotton, reed tassels, and put nitrate, sulfur, rosin, camphor and other things in it.
This woman is dressed up, but she is from an ordinary background, and this fire fold is not a tool that she can afford, so where did she get it?
According to the law of the Great Jin Dynasty, arson is classified as one of the ten evils, and it is the most serious crime, and it is the same as rebellion, usurpation, murder of parents by children, and murder of husbands.
Catching the arsonist is a big case, although the fire is big, but there have not been many casualties, it belongs to the rescue force, if you can follow the vine, after catching the mastermind of the two, you can repay the credit.
Yang Kui had already gone to the front of the battle, and at this time, the city of Yanzhou was managed by Zheng Lin, the general judge.
Zheng Tong is worried that he can't find a suitable matter to Liwei!
If this case can be tried beautifully, Zheng Lin's official authority will be able to be put on the table smoothly, and in the next few months, without Yang Kui in charge, it will be easier to put Yanzhou City in order.
Sun Yue is a person from Zheng Lin's lineage, so he naturally knows what his family official has been worried about recently, and when he saw the scene in front of him at this time, he was angry, and quickly made up his mind.
He walked quickly into the house, and at a glance he saw Qiu Yue and the round-faced woman pressed to the ground with her chair, and then looked left and right, and there was a frightened girl standing behind her.
Ji Qingling has beautiful facial features and outstanding temperament, even if she looks frightened, she still makes people know at first sight that she is not from an ordinary family.
Seeing a little girl frightened like this, Sun Yue involuntarily softened his tone a little and asked, "This woman, what is your surname and where are your parents?" Why do you live in this inn, and what are the plans of these two people? ”
Ji Qingling was waiting for his question!
When the original body left Yanzhou, he was too young and a woman, and he only vaguely remembered one or two of his parents' colleagues and close friends in the state, and even his name was unclear.
The Ji family lives in Yanzhou, and their relatives and friends are about to be wiped out by the slaughter, and the officials in the state who used to come and go often don't know how many are left.
When Ji Qingling first returned to Yanzhou, it can be said that the old hometown has become a new place, everything is unfamiliar, and it is almost impossible to find the original contacts one by one.
However, just because she can't find someone else doesn't mean she can't let someone else come to her.
No matter who is involved in such a big case as arson, as long as there is the slightest involvement, it will definitely be thoroughly investigated.
She's the one who matters.
As long as her family is on the desk of the yamen, the state government will spread the word, and some officials will know that there is such a daughter who was formerly under the jurisdiction of Yanzhou's eight-rank soldiers and horses and horses and is alone in the city, and was almost set on fire and taken away.
Could it be that Ji's father's colleagues would all be dead, and none of them would take care of their old friends' widows?
Even if they are all dead, at this moment, the person in charge of Yanzhou City is Zheng Lin, who is also from a Jinshi.
Ji Qingling doesn't know which year and which session of Jinshi Ji's father is here, but if you count the age of Ji's father and Zheng Lin, you may have known each other. Even if they didn't know each other and were officials in the same dynasty, at this moment, Ji's father was martyred for the country, and there was only one daughter left, how could Zheng Lin ignore it!
As long as she takes care of her and takes it out in the future, it can be regarded as a credit for the orphans of the martyrs!
This kind of thing that benefits and does not cost, and is famous and satisfies conscience, only a fool would not do it, right!?
Although it is not clear whether Gu Pingzhong and Gu Pingli can be involved, even if they can get out, at least a layer of skin will be scraped off.
If he is regarded as a benchmark for bereavement and becomes Zheng Lin's political achievement in appeasing the orphans of martyrs, it means that no matter how bold Gu Pingzhong and Gu Pingli are, no matter which official or official in the state wants to do it again, they will have to weigh a few points.
Ji Qingling's purpose is actually very simple, as long as he can be safe temporarily, wait for Gu Yanzhang to come back, and then try to make other plans, it is enough.
This is a difficult requirement.
But with this fire, everything is no longer difficult.
I really have to thank these two uncles of the Gu family!
Ji Qingling pulled the handkerchief, although he was panicked, he endured the appearance of fear, and made a big salute seriously, and said: "Returning to the official, the little woman's surname is Ji, and her father is under the jurisdiction of the former Yanzhou soldiers and horses. ”
Her face was pale, her hands were clutching a handkerchief, and her voice was a little timid, but her words were clear and coherent, and she didn't say a word of nonsense.
Such a delicate and lovely little girl was forced to calm down here, and so reasonable, and there were women who had been captured in the house, and the mess all over the floor, and the exposed fire folds as evidence, and there were dozens of people in the field, nearly a hundred eyes staring, and none of them had the slightest suspicion that the two women did not intend to set fire.
Hearing Ji Qingling's own statement, Sun Yue couldn't help but be surprised.
Eight soldiers and horses, or loyal martyrs who died for the country!
This is not a petty official who is not in the stream!
He couldn't help but look the little girl in front of him up and down carefully.
Ji Qingling saluted, half-lowered his head and stood with his sleeves folded, looking a little nervous, but whether it was manners or etiquette, he couldn't find any fault.
Sun Yue's heart became more and more favorable, and he asked kindly, "Then where is your husband at home?" Tell him to come out and talk back. ”
Ji Qingling replied: "My husband was recruited by the imperial court to serve as a husband. ”
Sun Yue was stunned.
If you can live in the place where the inn is crossed, and marry the daughter of the former soldier, how can you not be from a third- or fourth-class family, how can you go to serve as a husband?
Standing behind Sun Yue, Gu Pingli's face was almost gloomy and dripping, he stared at Ji Qingling opposite, just wanting to rush over and tear her mouth apart.
