118. Case closed

Lin Boqin and Chu Cheng hid in the inn to recuperate from their injuries, and within three days, an earth-shattering news came.

Governor Chen was dismissed.

It was King Hengping who personally ordered the raid and named Lin Boqin to concurrently serve as the prefect of Wangzhou.

Hearing this, Lin Boqin and the others once suspected that there was a problem with their ears, only Chu Cheng understood what was going on, she couldn't help laughing, and said seriously: "This King of Hengping, don't look at it as an idle prince in the court, but after all, he is a relative of the emperor, and it is easy to investigate and deal with a five-rank state official." ”

The wound on the back of Lin Boqin's head was almost healed, but he didn't tie his hair, but spread it on the back of his head, looking a little cold.

"But King Hengping has no friendship with me, and he just dismissed Governor Chen, why did he let me temporarily take the position of prefect?"

Chu Hui's eyes rolled, and she continued: "It must have been Commander Huo who said good things about you in front of him." ”

Lin Boqin had been a Beijing official before, and he had never heard of Huo Ying and King Hengping having a personal relationship, could it be that in a few years, the relationship between Huo Ying and King Hengping had become good?

He was puzzled, and even felt that this was Governor Chen's deception in order to lure him to appear, but Feng He, Yang La and others went to the city gate to read the notice and confirmed that this matter was true, so Lin Boqin was suspicious and cautiously returned to Wangzhou Mansion with Chu Cheng and others.

There was a murderous atmosphere up and down the government.

Zhao Qi and the others were all standing in the public court, trembling, looking at a middle-aged man in a long shirt and unremarkable.

Chu Cheng deliberately lowered her face and hid behind Yang Lahu Yu and others.

As soon as the light in the public hall dimmed, Zhao Qi turned around, saw Lin Boqin at a glance, and hurriedly said to the middle-aged man: "Lord Lin is back!" If you have anything to say, you can tell Lord Lin. Xia Guan really did not collude with Governor Chen, and even helped Lord Lin many times, if you don't believe Mr. Lin, you can ask Lord Lin to see if what Xia Guan said is true! ”

Lin Boqin was stunned when he heard this.

He looked at the middle-aged man and saw that he didn't know him. The middle-aged man looked at Lin Boqin, obviously for the first time.

Chu Cheng quietly bent the corners of her mouth, Ning Que, this girl is quite smart, knowing that she and Yu Wenyi are not easy to show up, so she invited Yu Jingcheng, the old marquis's strategist.

Don't look at Yu Jingcheng is just a strategist next to the old marquis, but he is extremely famous in the Great Yuan Dynasty. Not into the official career, but better than the civil and military officials, when the war with the Turks, if it were not for his witty advice, whether Dayuan could have the current prosperous situation, it is not known.

Yu Jingcheng has the waist card of Marquis Yuwen on his waist, and he holds the bronze order of King Hengping in his left hand, and no one in the entire Wangzhou can afford to provoke him.

"Lord Lin, the case of corruption and bribery in Governor Chen's mansion has been reported to the imperial court. Before the Criminal Department finds out, it will be up to you to deal with all matters of the Wangzhou Mansion. Yu Jingcheng finished his words according to the instructions of the county lord of Ningque.

A few of the officials kneeling in Ulala below were not convinced, and couldn't help but say, "Sir, which one of me is not more qualified than Lord Lin?" He was too young and vigorous, and the lower officials felt that it was not appropriate for him to take the position of prefect......"

Yu Jingcheng raised his hand and stroked his beard: "Don't say more, all this is ...... Well, the arrangement of King Hengping. ”

Hearing the words "King Hengping", no one came to refute it at the moment.

It's just that he was secretly unhappy in his heart, and he was jealous that Lin Boqin didn't know when he caught up with such a network as the emperor's relatives.

Lin Boqin was also confused, seeing that Yu Jingcheng was about to leave in a hurry to explain a few words, he hurriedly chased forward and asked: "Mr. Yu, the lower officials dare to know, how did you learn about the Chen Governor's mansion's fire and consumption of official silver, corruption and bribery?" ”

Yu Jingcheng was stunned.

How does he know? Of course, it was the county lord of Ningque and the little marquis of Yuwen who told him.

I don't know what the two people are selling, they don't say the antecedents, they just let him carry the tokens of the Hou Ye and the Wang Ye to remove the Chen Governor's Mansion, and then support the young descendant in front of him.

"Lord Lin doesn't need to ask."

Yu Jingcheng looks like a fairy, and he speaks with an unfathomable look, but he frightened Lin Boqin and the others.

He said: "I still have important business in Youzhou, so I won't talk to Lord Lin more." I will put the official seal of the prefect on the bill, and you can use it directly. ”

Lin Boqin frowned: "Doesn't Mr. try Governor Chen...... Chen Ziyang's case of poisoning his wife, embezzlement, and embezzlement of official money? ”

Yu Jingcheng waved his hand: "Lord Lin, I am just a strategist, although I hold the tokens of the Hou Ye and the Wang Ye, but I can't interrogate the imperial court officials, you can handle this matter by yourself." I'll tell you the truth, I'm here this time because someone entrusted me, and I won't tell you if you don't have to ask who it is. He glanced at Lin Boqin, and then left without looking back.

Lin Boqin seemed to have fallen into a fog, he looked at Yu Jingcheng's back, and wondered if he had injured the back of his head, and he had been hallucinating.

Hu Yu beside him immediately spoke, pulling him back to reality: "My lord, it's good now, the entire Wangzhou is in charge of you, and it's easy to deal with a Chen Ziyang!" Yang La also urged: "My lord, without further ado, quickly convict Chen Ziyang and escort him to the capital for interrogation as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

Lin Boqin hesitated for a moment, and then in front of all the officials, he brought out the Chen Governor in prison.

However, after a few days, the government changed the day.

Zhao Qi thought for a moment, got up and walked to Lin Boqin's side, and asked dog-leggedly: "Lord Lin, the account book was hidden in his house by Governor Chen, and the lower official will take Yang Zhutou to get it back." ”

He has been following Governor Chen for so many years, but he didn't get any oil and water, when Governor Chen embezzled official money, he was too timid to mix, but he didn't expect that it was a mistake that saved his life.

Lin Boqin glanced at Zhao Qi, not believing him, but believing in his own judgment.

He gave Yang La a look, and Yang La rushed to Governor Chen's house with Zhao Qi.

The official uniform on Governor Chen's body has been stripped off, he is wearing a white middle coat, his hands and feet are still shackled, his hair is messy, and his chubby body looks very embarrassed.

Lin Boqin didn't sit on the bill in the public court in a grand manner, he stood on one side, standing with his hands in his hands, and choked Governor Chen's anger!

"Lin Boqin, this official ...... I'm underestimating you! ”

Hu Yu and Feng He stood on either side of Lin Boqin respectively, and couldn't help but sneer: "Really? Then you should keep your eyes open now and take a closer look at us adults. ”

Seeing that Hu Yu was a little catcher with no grade, Governor Chen dared to be sarcastic at him, and he was speechless angrily.

But what can he do?

has worked hard to be an official for most of his life, but he still can't resist the light words of the royal family.

He clearly remembered that just yesterday, two young people dressed in rich clothes came, one of whom was beautiful and beautiful, she glanced at herself coldly, and said, "This prefect is too ugly, I heard that his hands and feet are not clean, so let's put it down." ”

So the next day, he was really taken down!

Until he was in prison, he couldn't believe this fact. At first, he shouted that he was wronged, but later someone gave him a piece of paper with his five charges written on it: embezzlement of official money, collecting and scraping people's fat, poisoning and killing his wife, and embezzlement and bribery...... and offending the county lord.

Governor Chen was stunned at that time.

Princess? What county lord? He racked his brains and thought for a long time before he remembered that Yuxue's lovely "young man" in a snow-white fox fur was the famous Ningque County Lord of the Great Yuan Dynasty.

The lord of Ningque and Princess Huarong are said to be unique in color.

He hadn't seen the legendary Princess Huarong, but just the beauty of this county lord, he couldn't forget it for the rest of his life.

When Governor Chen thought of these things, his heart was bitter, and he wanted to shout that he was wronged, and his colleagues here all rushed to identify him in order to clean himself up, hoping that Lin Boqin would be punished lightly; Zhao Qi, the grass on the wall, even led people to dig out all the jade treasures hidden in his home, and even presented the account book to Lin Boqin with both hands.

Lin Boqin even obtained the confessions of Master Xuanming and others in Qingyuan County, and the evidence was conclusive, and he had no way to refute it.

Even if it is refuted, no one pays attention to it at all.

In prison, the master who had been with him for twenty years quietly brought him a sentence: "Lord Ningque, you are determined to kill Lord Chen." ”

Governor Chen wanted to cry without tears, he was a small prefect, far away from the emperor in Wangzhou, and he didn't think that he had offended Ning Que if he wanted to break his head. Lin Boqin told Governor Chen one crime after another in accordance with the law, but Governor Chen had no choice but to confess to them all. At the end, he raised his head full of fat, and couldn't help but sarcastically say to Lin Boqin: "Lord Lin is a good method, I really underestimated you." I didn't expect you to have such a big network in the capital, and sooner or later you will soar into the capital! ”

Lin Boqin frowned, noncommittal.

Because until now, he didn't understand where he met the nobleman.

In the confusion of Governor Chen, Lin Boqin and others, this case ended with Governor Chen's confession.

When Yang La and Hu Yu were leaving Governor Chen's mansion, Chu Cheng's heart moved, and she stepped forward and asked, "Lord Chen, there is something I want to ask you." ”

Governor Chen's small eyes glanced at Chu Cheng coldly, and asked, "Mrs. Lin is now the wife of a first-class official in Wangzhou, how dare I not answer as a prisoner?" ”

"You don't have to talk yin and yang."

Chu Hui's eyebrows were slightly raised, but she looked quite amorous.

Governor Chen was out of his mind, and felt that her appearance was not a little worse than that of the Ningque County Lord.

"Mrs. Chen once said to me that no matter whether you are in love with her or not, she still has you in her heart. When she died, the lilies and silver hairpins in her hair were not removed......" Chu Cheng closed her eyes, her heart ached for her, "When Lord Chen poisoned her, didn't he hesitate at all?" ”

Perhaps this sentence touched the heartstrings of Governor Chen.

He thought that when he was young, he was not fat, and he was a merry and talented man in a green shirt. Yun's twenty-eighth year, holding a snow-white lily, is picking out sachets on the side of the road. Her lilies were accidentally brushed to the ground by him, and when she raised her head and smiled, it was wishful thinking that had nothing to do with wind and moon.

Governor Chen blinked, and suddenly wet his eyes.

"I don't want to hurt her."

But Aunt Lan was urging every day, and he was fascinated for a while, so he bought it to be highly poisonous.

The poison actually tasted very pungent when it was put in the tea, and he deliberately put a lot of it, hoping that Yun's could avoid it when he drank tea.

But for some reason, she drank it anyway.

Such a bad smell that everyone will find something else in it. But why is the Yun clan so stupid to drink the poison into his stomach? Was it because he personally brought it to her, so that she didn't think about it?

Governor Chen knew that he was escorted to Beijing this time, and he could not escape death, smiled and smiled, and suddenly cried: "The destiny is like this, the destiny is like this!" Mrs. Lin, the funeral of my deceased wife has not yet been completed, and you and her are old friends, so I will ask you to help with her posthumous affairs. ”

Chu Cheng subconsciously helped the peony flower silver hairpin in the hair room and nodded.
