Chapter 50: Xu Yingying of the Supreme Red Face (5)
The man only felt a flash of silver light, a cold chill on his neck, and a tingling pain, looked down, it turned out to be a long sword, he suddenly felt a cold back, and a lot of cold sweat appeared on his head, "Woman, woman, don't, this knife has no eyes, you can do whatever you want." Don't hurt me. ”
"Let me ask you, did you rob a batch of goods a month ago?"
"Yes, yes"
"What about the people who deliver the goods?"
"In, in prison, in the middle" he said this sentence tremblingly, and wanted to look back, the sword moved forward, it seemed that he wanted him to continue, he closed his eyes, and had to explain the matter and the plate in one go, "The boss and an official lord bowed to the handle, in the past, the official lord was one eye open and one eye closed, but this time the matter was big, the boss used half a box of pearls to the official master, and the escort men and stewards were given dumb medicine, and they were beaten half to death......
"What about the rest of the pearls?"
The man shook his head and muttered, "I don't know where the boss hid the goods before, and I used to exchange a little bit every month for money and food, at least it was better than farming......"
Xu Yingying stunned the man, and entered the room where the leader of the bandits was said to be the leader, who was still sleeping with a naked woman in his arms, she searched everywhere, and finally found a hidden mechanism under the bed, which also contained some pearls and gold, and some jewelry. There are also pawn tickets, letters, and so on.
Xu Yingying flipped through slightly, there are many officials who have dealings with these bandits, officials and bandits collude, no wonder this gang of bandits is so arrogant, they can actually put the bitter master in prison to take the blame for them, throw these things into the space, she sneaked into the prison, and followed the cell head to the men's prison.
It was dark in the cell, and if it was better during the day, there was a window that let in some daylight, and at night, when it was cloudy, the moonlight could not be seen, and only the rats in the prison were company.
The previous bandit said that Xiao Duo and they were drugged and beaten half to death, and when they came in, they were divided and closed, and Xiao Duo's thin prison clothes were covered with blood and pus, and his unkempt hair was very different from the previous vigorous appearance.
Xiao Duo felt that someone seemed to be approaching, and suddenly opened his eyes, but he didn't see anything, but pulled the wound on his cheek, ahhhhhhhhh
Xu Yingying sighed, uncovered the breath charm, and saw that Xiao Duo was about to gasp loudly, so he quickly covered his mouth and whispered, "Xiao Duo, I am Yingying, I have already got the evidence, I can catch that gang of bandits soon, and wait for another day, I have the antidote to the dumb medicine here." ”
Xiao Duo's wide eyes looked at Xu Yingying fixedly, nodded, swallowed the brown pill, and suddenly a warmth rose in his body, especially the throat was no longer dry, and tried to speak, "Ying, Yingying, you go to that Bianzhou general judge Di Renjie, he has our things on hand, quick, go quickly." ”
Xu Yingying nodded, put Xiaoduo down gently, looked back at the person lying on the ground, and saw that the laziness and innocence of the young man faded in his eyes, and gradually became calm, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.
But there is always a personal fate, she thought to herself, and quickened her pace.
When it was dawn, Xu Yingying dragged the two stewards to inquire about Di Renjie, and she herself shrunk into inches and went to the Li Mansion in Chang'an to find Li Junxian, after all, she has no foundation here in Bianzhou, and Lizhou knows a lot of young ladies, I don't know if there is any greater collusion of interests between this official and the official, she doesn't want to start from this side, so she simply gave it to Li Junxian, anyway, Li Junxian's personality is at least a little more reassuring, even if he can't do anything, he is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, I can still say a few words in front of the emperor.
The rest was the Bianzhou general judge Di Renjie, and when the steward inquired, they handed the worship post to the door.
Di Renjie's mansion is simple, without the general luxury of Tang Dynasty officials, very elegant, when she was invited into the hall, she also looked at the courtyard all the way, but when she entered, she couldn't help but be surprised, "I didn't expect that the girl on the road was the general judge." Xu Yingying blessed her body and bowed.
It turned out that the strange man who liked to ride a donkey outside the city gate yesterday was Di Renjie.
Di Renjie smiled lightly, and couldn't help but glance at the outrageous steward behind Xu Yingying, but saw that his nervous forehead was full of sweat.
"The people's daughter is in charge of my family, and I will accompany you for yesterday's rudeness." She was smiling, the bangs that she had put down in the past were all braided aside this time, a simple tassel hairpin, a water-blue pleated skirt, gentle and weak, a pair of amorous and charming peach blossom eyes were scorching, it was really beautiful.
The smile on Di Renjie's lips deepened, "It's okay, I already know Miss Xu's intention, and I will help Miss Xu." ”
"In this way, thank you Lord Di, the folk girl is grateful, so she can only give a thank you gift." Xu Yingying clapped her hands, and the steward behind her lowered her eyebrows and handed over a silk silk, Di Renjie unfolded it slightly, and his smile remained unchanged and called the servant to put it away.
Seeing Xu Yingying away, Di Renjie casually flicked the red rope at hand, and laughed in a low voice.
At the beginning of the month, he went to the temple to ask for a signature, and he got a sign, and he had a very good relationship with the temple Zhu, and the temple Zhu gave him a piece of red rope, saying that he would meet someone who was destined at the end of the month, and now he thinks about it is really good.
There was no hostess in his house, and he was a little lonely after all.
When Wu Meiniang heard that something had happened to Xiaoduo, she hurriedly took Xu Yingying's hand and asked about Xiaoduo's situation, but she was now pregnant for a month, so she shouldn't think about it, Xu Yingying just comforted her casually and explained the situation to Li Junxian.
Li Junxian has been in the officialdom for many years, although he is a military general, but it is impossible to operate without a little, Di Renjie handed over the evidence of local officials accepting bribes and abusing their powers, dredged up the relationship, Li Junxian also had someone to deal with, these two groups of people shot at the same time, it is rare to make this backlog of things fast.
Xiaoduo and the consuls had to be transferred to a regular cell pending trial.
A few days later, it happened to be the autumn hunt, Li Junxian's superb archery skills came out on top, and he took the opportunity to talk about this matter in front of the emperor, and the emperor was furious, and he was already extremely dissatisfied with the officials of this faction in Bianzhou, which made people investigate the matter thoroughly.
It happened that a few big officials in Chang'an found out what clues, and they all took away their powers as soon as they took off their powers, and many officials in Bianzhou were also dismissed, among them, especially highlighting Di Renjie's talent and character, considering many factors, the emperor promoted Di Renjie to be an observer (made up).
