Chapter 313 Upper Yamen Complaint

The evidence is conclusive, and he is not allowed to deny it, even his wife and grandmother Zhou came out to testify, Zhou Jiangong drooped his head and nodded, and then the official took the paper, and drew Zhou Jiangong to take Zhou Jiangong to prison, and persecuted the county lord, he also had to report to the Criminal Department, and after the Criminal Department confirmed, Zhou Jiangong was convicted.

Of course, regarding the collusion between Zhou Jiangong and the eldest prince and concubine, Li Yun planned not to make trouble, so he had already deliberately explained to those witnesses, and it was not possible to mention that there were people behind Zhou Jiangong, Zhou Jiangong listened to Li Yue's warning before, for fear that he would be killed and killed, of course, he didn't dare to mention it again.

Finally finished the trial, Hu Xianling breathed a sigh of relief, got down from his first place, stood respectfully in front of several people, and said, "This prisoner has been imprisoned, what do you see?" Is it a withdrawal? ”

I didn't want Li Yun to open his mouth and say, "You sit down first, we still have a complaint to sue." ”

"Huh?" Hu Xianling was slightly stunned, then wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and responded, "Yes." "I went back to my place and sat down tremblingly, but I didn't know what to do, and I slandered in my heart, isn't this all over, what are these ancestors going to sue?

At this time, Li Yun helped Li Yue to stand up, stood under the court, and looked at Lord Hu in the first place, this Lord Hu almost stood up in panic, thinking about his current identity, he still continued to sit in the first place like a pins and needles, and said in fear, "I don't know who General Li is going to sue?" ”

Li Yun said lightly, "The little young master of the Wu family, Wu Xuezhi." ”

Hu Xianling almost fell from his seat, and was thinking about how to shirk this, when there was another person at the door that he couldn't afford to offend.

I saw the eldest prince come in from the door with two entourages, and his rhetoric was not much different from Zhou Huaijin's, it was all such a coincidence, "His Royal Highness said that this yamen for the New Year is so lively, it turns out that you are here?" What's the matter, this is the murderer who has found the conspirator of the county lord? ”

"See Your Highness." When they saw that the eldest prince was coming, all the people stood up and saluted.

The eldest prince waved his hand to everyone and motioned for them all to get up, and then continued to Li Yun who was standing in the middle, "What about the prisoner? ”

Li Yue replied with a light smile, "We have been imprisoned, and we are suing the little young master of the Wu family at this time?" ”

The eldest prince replied with an interesting smile, "Oh? This is interesting, Hu County Order, do you mind if His Royal Highness listens to one or two? ”

Hu Xianling felt that his official uniform was soaked with sweat, and hurriedly answered cautiously, "Don't mind, of course you don't mind, look at Your Highness and sit down, Your Highness, please take a seat." ”

When the eldest prince sat down in the first place, Hu Xianling wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I don't know, I don't know what the county lord is saying about the little young master of the Wu family?" ”

Li Yue replied lightly, "The main master of this county sued the little young master of the Wu family for insulting the county lord on the street, and also instructed his subordinates to forcibly arrest the county lord, but fortunately, the cousin of the county lord, that is, the cousin of the county lord Li Yun's cousin, Zhou Jinbao, came to the rescue, and the young master of the Wu family failed to succeed, but the little young master of the Wu family beat him up, relying on the fact that he was the grandson of Wu Shangshu, and sued the cousin of the county lord Zhou Jinbao for beating people on the street, but put the cousin of the county lord in prison, Lord Hu looked, how should this matter be judged?" ”

The cold sweat on Lord Hu's forehead kept breaking out when he heard this, and he opened his mouth and said, "This, county lord, this case has been handed over to the criminal department, and the lower officials don't dare to interfere in this case, county lord, look, is it more appropriate to go directly to the criminal department?" ”

Li Yun said coldly, "General Ben's wife sued the young master of the Wu family, you are a county order, and you haven't even filed a case to summon the defendant, how did it become a case of the Criminal Department?" Or is Hu Xianling also afraid of the Wu family's arrogance, and dare not summon the little young master of the Wu family? ”

Listening to these words, the Hu County Order was so frightened that he almost fainted directly, what is this, he is a small county order, he can't afford to offend any of them!

The eldest prince on the side still had a gentle smile and said, "These two are secretly involved, it is estimated that they can't be separated into two cases, and this Hu County Order is also difficult, His Royal Highness has an idea, if Hu County Order goes to the Criminal Department, invite Lord Xu of the Criminal Department, and then bring the little young master of the Zhou family and the little young master of the Wu family to bring these parties, and let Lord Xu try the case." ”

Hu Xianling glanced at the eldest prince gratefully, stood up, and said, "Xiaguan will go and invite Master Xu of the Criminal Department, and invite a few people, Xiaguan will go to invite Master Xu immediately, and prepare a horse for me." ”

While speaking, Hu Xian Ling had already trotted out of the yamen, and there were Li Yun and the other four people left in the court, as well as a group of onlookers outside who were reluctant to leave and people who couldn't leave.

The seated eldest prince waved his hand to Li Yun and Li Yue, who were still standing in the middle, as if they were old friends, and greeted him warmly, "You two come and sit first, then Lord Hu probably won't be able to come back for a while." ”

Li Yun helped Li Yue over, and sat down in the position unceremoniously, Li Yun said to the eldest prince with a little deep meaning, "Is the eldest prince and concubine okay?" ”

A dark light flashed in the eldest prince's eyes, and he answered, "Thank you Brother Li for your concern, she is very good, thank you Brother Li for this matter." ”

Li Yun responded, "It's okay, it's good that the eldest prince can understand." ”

This kind of dialogue with unclear meaning, only they can understand the meaning of it, Zhou Huaijin on the side pretended not to understand and asked, "What are you two talking about?" Why don't I understand? ”

The eldest prince replied with a gentle smile, "It's nothing, why did Gongzi Zhou come here too?" ”

Zhou Huaijin pretended to blink mysteriously, and then deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Look at the excitement, I heard that this Wu family is very flamboyant, I also want to see how this Wu family is publicizing, isn't this the purpose of His Highness coming over?" ”

The eldest prince hurriedly echoed, "We thought of it together, and His Royal Highness came here on purpose, just to see it." ”

After that, a few people chatted sentence by sentence, and it seemed that the atmosphere was very harmonious, Li Yue was not polite at all, and for a while he ordered the official to add some charcoal, for a while to let the official serve tea, and for a while to instruct the official to add some water.

The identities of these people, any person, a finger can crush them to death, where they dare to slacken, they are all carefully served, just looking forward to their Lord Hu coming back soon.

The effort of the two teas has passed, and this Lord Hu has finally returned, followed by Master Xu from the Criminal Department, and Zhou Jinbao who came over behind him, but Li Yue looked at the young man standing outside and waved at him excitedly, isn't that the young master of the Xu family in Liangshan Town? How is it also in Yanjing?

That Lord Hu brought Lord Xu over, Lord Xu greeted a few people Shi Li, and saw Li Yue's eyes looking at the outside of the yamen, Lord Xu turned his head to take a look, and then greeted Li Yue with a smile, "My nephew is stubborn, I caused a lot of trouble to the county lord at the beginning, and I forgot that the county lord didn't care about villains, don't worry about him generally." ”

Li Yue instantly understood that the relative of the Xu family in Yanjing was Lord Xu of the Criminal Department, and at the same time, this person was also a member of Yan Jiu. , Li Yue replied with a smile, "Let's call it not to fight and not to know each other." ”

The eldest prince was secretly frightened in his heart, is this Chang'an county lord still familiar with Lord Xu of the Criminal Department? At the same time, he was also secretly relieved that he had made no mistake in this move, and his decision to win over Li Yun and Li Yue was even better.

Zhou Jinbao was escorted in, he was no longer the glamorous young master of the Zhou family, he had lost a lot of weight, his face was pale and embarrassed, looking at Li Yun and Li Yue, he called out "cousin, cousin", tears fell instantly, he was imprisoned for so many days, no one had ever seen him, he thought he was dead, full of despair, and then someone brought him food in, I heard that it was arranged by General Li, I felt a little hope, and I was even more grateful to Li Yue, His cousin, who is a little fierce to him, actually cares about him very much.

Li Yun glanced at Zhou Jinbao and said in disgust, "Take back your tears, shame." ”

Zhou Jinbao was busy wiping away the tears on his face, Li Yue looked at Zhou Jinbao who was so embarrassed and tried not to cry, this is just a child, and said with some distress, "Don't worry, we will save you out." ”

Zhou Jinbao looked at Li Yue gratefully and nodded busily.

Li Yue is a little guilty, if it weren't for himself, Zhou Jinbao would not have suffered such a crime, although Zhou Jinbao is a little arrogant, but Li Yue seems that he is also a spoiled child, everything depends on his own nature, his nature is not bad, but if the Zhou family continues to raise like this, I am afraid that he will also raise crookedly.

Lord Xu of the Criminal Department is incomparable to the Hu County Order, and he has already sat in the first place at this time, without a little timidity, "Since the case sued by the county lord is related to Zhou Jinbao's beating case before, then the lower officials will take it together, and the two cases will be tried together, what does the county lord think?" ”

Li Yue nodded and responded, "Then it's hard work Lord Xu." ”

Hu Xian Ling on the side hurriedly handed over the letter to Lord Xu, who was now sitting in his place, Lord Xu read the paper, and then said, "Someone, go and summon the little master of the Wu family Wu Xuezhi for this official, Hu County Order, you take someone to go in person, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to summon it." ”

Hu Xianling sighed in his heart, he originally thought that he could throw away this hot potato, but if he looked at it, it was impossible, and he had to respond in his mouth, "No." "This official is one level older than him, not to mention that the person is several levels older than his own official.

The eldest prince watched Hu Xianling leave with the people, and said with a light smile, "It seems that we have to wait again." ”

Zhou Huaijin shrugged his shoulders and said, "I've been waiting for so long, I don't care about waiting a little longer." After that, Zhou Huaijin called his entourage and went to the street to buy some snacks and snacks, and then said with a smile, "I didn't have time to eat breakfast when I came out in the morning, I was a little hungry." ”

Li Yue started a conversation with Master Xu, who was sitting in the first place, "When did Young Master Xu come to Yanjing?" ”

Lord Xu responded, "There was an accident in Yanjing, my eldest brother took them up to Yanjing, and fortunately they left in time, otherwise I am afraid that something will happen, I heard that many villagers in the family who did not leave in time have accidents, and the county lord was at the border at the time, it should be very clear, right?" ”

Everyone listened to Lord Xu who asked about Yanxi, and they all opened their ears wide, the deeds of the county lord of Chang'an are already the legend of Dayan, and the door is full of many people, all to see the demeanor of the county lord of Chang'an, Li Yue and the others stay inside and don't know, but the Lord Xu and Lord Hu, who came in from the outside, are very clear, and there are many layers inside and out.

Li Yue sighed lightly and said, "The Xianbei army entered Yanmen Pass, and it burned, killed and looted the people on the border, and there was no humanity at all, and the people of Yanxi don't know how many of them died under the knife of the Xianbei barbarians." ”

Hu County's order on the side flattered and said, "Fortunately, the heroine of the lord of Chang'an County drove Xianbei out of my Dayan border, and even killed him in the grassland of Xianbei, avenging the people of Yanxi." ”

Li Yue responded, "Although I led the army into the Xianbei border, I will not learn from the Xianbei barbarians to slaughter innocent villagers, the people are innocent, our Dayan is a state of etiquette, can we learn from the Xianbei barbarians to do that barbaric like a beast." ”

Hu County Ling hurriedly responded, "What the county lord of Chang'an said is that the lower officials have been taught. ”

Xu Zheng outside led people to coax, "Why don't you tell everyone how the county lord of Chang'an defeated the hundreds of thousands of Xianbei army with fewer victories?" ”

As soon as Xu Zheng spoke, the people outside the door boldly echoed, "Yes, the county lord of Chang'an will tell you about it." ”

At this time, not only the people gathered outside looked forward to it, but even the officials above the court looked at Li Yue expectantly, hoping that Li Yue would tell everyone how the Yanxi army won more with less.

Li Yue glanced at Li Yun and saw Li Yun's affirmative eyes before he spoke, "Okay, I'll tell you how our 20,000 army led Yanxi's 80,000 army around our border mountains......

In fact, Li Yun promised Li Yue to give everyone about the Yanxi war, and he also has his own careful thoughts, which can improve Li Yue's tall image among the people outside, and when the time comes, the Wu family will come over, and the people are afraid that they will stand on Li Yue's side, even if the Wu family is forced by the pressure of public opinion, I am afraid that they will have to let go of Jinbao this week.

Li Yun didn't expect at this time that this matter was far from being as complicated as he thought, and even the public witnesses that Li Zhong specially found were a little redundant, so this matter was easily resolved.
