After the early dynasty, the main hall of Dali Temple is still lively.

Xu Ling, the Duke of Liang, Zhou Chen, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Li Guangqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Shen Zetang, who was forcibly pulled to join in the fun.

Yang Yan, the secretary of Dali Temple, specially asked the guards to cook tea, Li Guangqi looked at his eyes and asked what kind of tea he cooked, Yang Yan smiled and said that this was pine basket tea.

"You're being honest this time." Li Guangqi pouted at Shen Zetang: "Shen Er, the Qiyun melon slices I ate at your place yesterday are quite sweet, how about you taste this pineapple tea?" ”

Shen Zetang picked it up and ate half of it, put it down again with a smile, glanced at Yang Yan, and said slowly: "Huijun's pine basket tea is not easy to come by. ”

Yang Yan looked a little proud: "It's a gift from my brother-in-law who lives in Hui County, and I don't take it out easily to entertain guests on weekdays." ”

Shen Zetang smiled lightly.

Xu Lingcha didn't eat either, just sat on the official hat chair, sulking to himself.

Zhou Chen wanted to talk to him, but he either spoke coldly or ignored him, so he laughed and said, "You always make me angry!" But all the cases that provoke the emperor's relatives are handled by Dali Temple, and I can't do anything about it. ”

Hearing this, Yang Yan lowered his face, and said: "The Criminal Department is in charge of the criminal punishment decree of our dynasty, and Dali Temple has the right to review, this case should be under your jurisdiction." ”

After a pause, he said mockingly: "Zhou Shangshu has not believed in Buddhism since Linglang's death?" The Buddha said that all living beings are equal, how can you still be different from the noble and the low, this Buddha, I'm afraid it's in vain. ”

Li Guangqi chuckled, looking like he didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement.

Zhou Chende was ridiculed like this, his face was red and white, and the thin scars on his forehead and nose couldn't help shaking, and he was quite annoyed and angry: "Don't speculate more than half a sentence, I'll go!" He picked up his robe and left angrily.

Shen Zetang said softly to him: "Lord Zhou stays, it's really no wonder that Lord Yang, according to the "Masters of the Duties", Dali Temple has recorded the world's criminal names, and those who have discrepancies in crimes will be refuted according to the law. If there is a wrong, the case must be justified, and the punishment must be attributed to the guilty, and the innocent will not be trapped. The Criminal Department is in charge of the world's criminal names and prison orders, and this case is fully accepted by the Criminal Department. ”

He said to Yang Yan again: "But there is always a time for everything. Xu Shoufu received the emperor's holy decree and designated Dali Temple to take the case, but there was no need to be too harsh on the criminal department. Lord Yang is outstanding, distinguishing between right and wrong, and will be able to judge fairly. ”

Zhou Chenfu sat on the chair with a sneering expression: "Lord Yang speaks trickyly, I am a little older than you, and there must always be a number of courtesies." ”

Yang Yan was noncommittal, only looked at Xu Lingsu and said: "The case has been verified, Wei Xun, the son of Lord Wei of the Taifu Temple, because he has a grudge against Feng Shunyu, a classmate of Guozijian, instigated the guardian of the Chunshen Pavilion and wanted to tie him into the hall, but he mistakenly tied Xu Gonglinglang Xu Lan. ”

Li Guangqi interjected: "The name of the Chunshen Pavilion sounds elegant, what do you do for a living?" ”

Yang Yan's face sank, he didn't like to be interrupted when he complained about the case, and he continued slightly: "There are more than a dozen painters in the Chunshen Pavilion, who make a living by painting spring paintings for prostitutes and officials, among which the painter named Tang Liugongzi is the most prestigious, but he has the criticism of Longyang. ”

"!" Li Guangqi was shocked, and asked Xu Ling anxiously: "Is my nephew innocent?" ”

Xu Ling smiled angrily: "If Lan'er is bullied, then Wei Xun will still be alive now?" ”

Li Guangqi breathed a long sigh of relief, stroked his chest, and said that his old life was almost over!

Seeing Yang Yan eating tea slowly, he didn't seem to want to talk anymore, so he asked strangely: "Lord Yang only said half of what he said, why didn't he say it?" ”

Yang Yan put the tea bowl on the table and sneered: "I'll wait for Master Li to finish speaking." Lest I say one word, and you take another sentence, it's not a double reed performed in the troupe. ”

Li Guangqi was choked speechless, so he had to cough his throat and give Shen Er a look.

Shen Zetang curled the corners of his lips and said a little helplessly: "Lord Yang continues, if anyone can't control their mouths and interjects, they will all be punished according to the laws and regulations of the yatang, and they can be punished with ten sticks." ”

Everyone laughed.

Yang Yan's expression softened, and he said without hurry: "After interrogating the leader of the nursing home that night, Xu Lan was rescued by a pair of singing father and daughter, and there were one or two comrades accompanying him. Tang Liugongzi's fatal wound was in the waist and abdomen, and the sharp knife pierced the blood veins, and he died of excessive blood loss. According to the hospital's oral statement, a portrait of the murderer has been drawn, and a reward will be offered for his arrest on a later date. ”

After listening to him, Shen Zetang frowned and asked, "Where is the portrait now?" Can you give us a sneak peek? ”

Yang Yan ordered the guards to fetch it, and after talking for a while, the guards returned and respectfully handed the portrait to Shen Zetang.

Shen Zetang looked at it carefully, smiled, and handed it to Li Guangqi without much care, painting his appearance is really ugly.

I heard Yang Yan still saying: "It was rainy and dark that night, and the description of the courtyard was vague, so I am afraid that this image has no effect." ”

Xu Ling heard the sound of Amitabha, and everyone laughed again.

.................

About two hours after sending off a few Shangshu, Yang Yan suddenly heard the guards coming, and Xu Jing asked to see him.

He naturally knew that Xu Jing was Shen Zetang's staff, so he let him come in, and wondered what was going on in his heart.

Xu Jing saw him respectfully, Yang Yan smiled and excused himself and let him sit and pour tea.

Xu Jing waved his hand and said, "Lord Yang is polite, Second Master Shen asked me to hand over a thing to you, and I have to go back immediately." ”

"What is it?" Yang Yan asked with surprise on his face, secretly thinking in his heart that Shen Er was good friends with Xu Da, and he was afraid that he would give me something to punish Wei Xun severely.

Xu Jing took out a tea pot filled with blue and white porcelain, held it in both hands and said with a smile: "This is the Songluo Mountain in the remaining veins of Huangshan Mountain on the border of Huijun Xiushe, the pine basket tea made by the senior monk Wukong Master in the mountain temple and himself, the taste is sweet and the fragrance is strong. Shen Erye is specially given to adults to taste. ”

Yang Yan shook his head and refused: "I also have the pine basket tea, I just invited Second Master Shen to taste it today, how can you give me this out of thin air?" ”

Xu Jing saw that his words were blunt, but he was not annoyed, and still smiled: "Now it is fashionable to drink pine basket tea in the capital, because of the tight supply, the price of natural tea has risen, and the monks on Langyuan Mountain are red-eyed. imitated the method of making pineapple tea, made a good one, and sold it on the market with fake and genuine. Today, Second Master Shen has eaten Lord Yang's tea, and he also invited Lord Yang to taste his tea, which is purely a courtesy exchange between colleagues! ”

After finishing speaking, he said no more, and left in a hurry.

Yang Yan sat on the chair and looked at the tea can repeatedly, he was unfamiliar with Shen Erye, how could he give him pineapple tea for no reason?

After thinking about it for a while, he called the guards and cooked his own pineapple tea and Shen Erye's pineapple tea to taste.

After he had read a few volumes of the dossier, the guards had already prepared tea and brought it.

Two teapots, divided into two pots.

He ate one and then another.

Suddenly, a dark red appeared on his cheeks, and if it was known that he had eaten fake tea for his colleagues, he would not know how to poke him in the back in the back.

He has always been extremely pure and arrogant, so naturally he can't stand that kind of anger.
