Volume 1 Old Dreams Chapter 103 The Case Is Closed
"The little one did ignore the son's 1,000 taels of silver, and Japan thought that this was a loser, who knew that he would be able to bet by mistake, and he really couldn't take out the 20,000 taels, otherwise he would have to sell all the family capital, so he came up with this idea." The shopkeeper's face was depressed, and there was an uproar outside the hall, but he didn't expect this to be the result.
"It's not up to you to do it alone, say, who are the accomplices?" Qing Siyi asked again.
"It's all the villain's doing." The shopkeeper glanced at Luo Changshan and said.
"Oh? 20,000 taels is enough for you to lose your head a few times, and it is not as simple as losing your head to deceive this king, don't you think about your wife and children? Qing Siyi asked quietly.
"It's not a pity for such a person to die, come and drag him out-" Luo Changshan saw that people couldn't hold it anymore, and immediately ordered.
"Lord Wang, the little one said, please don't implicate the little one." The shopkeeper watched Luo Changshan cross the river and check the bridge, knelt down and begged.
"Lord Luo, don't be impatient, I'm afraid there are wrongdoers inside this yamen, wouldn't it be a good thing if they found out?"
"That's what the prince said. Say who your comrades are. If it's nonsense, hum! ”
"Yes...... It's gold! The shopkeeper said a name.
"Who is Jin Lai?" Qing Siyi asked.
"Yes...... He is Lord Luo's housekeeper. The shopkeeper said.
"Lord Wang, the officials don't know about this matter, my housekeeper disappeared early this morning, I'm afraid he fled with the money." Luo Changshan hurriedly explained.
Either lies are easy to be exposed, and only three points true and seven points false words are not easy to be exposed, and only three points are right in this statement.
"Oh? Lord Luo is an official of the imperial court, and he is an honest official, so this matter is naturally just a subordinate to bully others, and this king is still clear. Qing Siyi looked at him amusedly.
"Thank you Lord Wang, the next official will live up to the trust of the prince." Luo Changshan was moved.
"Then, Lord Luo, how should this matter be judged?"
"Come on, the gambling house shopkeeper will be beaten 60 boards, and all the property will be exchanged for 20,000 taels to Ni Shizhu, and the people involved in this matter in the gambling house will be beaten 40 boards and put in prison. Jin Lai's crime is extremely evil, and bullying people is really hateful and should be punished, and he should be arrested with all his might, and Ni Shizhu was acquitted in court. Luo Changshan said indignantly.
If it weren't for this bunch of garbage, he wouldn't be in this situation.
"Lord Luo is really righteous and killed his relatives, oh no, it's business!" Qing Siyi praised.
"Lord Xie, this is the accusation of the lower officials." Luo Changshan replied.
When everyone was taken down, Luo Changshan exhaled, and was about to end the case, when he heard Qing Siyi say something that made him almost fall to the ground.
"But you don't have to bother to catch it, this king has already helped you bring people. Someone coming—" The people outside the hall had just watched a good scene and were about to disperse, but when they saw another good scene, they stopped and continued to watch.
"This is—" Luo Changshan gasped, and everyone present was stunned.
Qing Siyi asked people to carry Jin Lai's corpse, and it was also a severed head.
"Didn't he commit suicide in fear of sin?"
"How is it possible, he is still a god operator, calculated to this moment?"
"So what?" There was a lot of talk outside the hall.
"Silence! Lord Wang, this is-" Luo Changshan's heart was also completely confused, but he was worthy of being an old ginger, tried his best to suppress his emotions, and turned his head to ask.
"Bold Luo Changshan, as Luoyang Mansion, Luo Yang has just experienced a natural disaster, not only did you not think about it, but you skillfully captured your eyes and filled your pockets, you are guilty!" Qing Siyi suddenly shouted loudly.
"Lord Wang, can you listen to slander and slander your subordinates!" Luo Changshan's body trembled.
"Humph! Look what this is! Qing Siyi took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and threw it to Luo Changshan.
After Luo Changshan finished reading it, he sat down on the chair all of a sudden, his eyes glazed.
"Spread it to the people outside! Let them see how hypocritical their mansions are! Qing Siyi commanded again.
On the surface, Luo Changshan appeared on the red horse, but in fact he had already bought an iron hoof horse, so as to control the odds of the game, in addition to the share of the major gambling houses, a total of 98,600 taels of silver. One of them imprisoned a bettor and paid 20,000 taels of silver, but because he was unwilling to pay, he colluded with the gambling house to detain him until now. The people circulated it, and someone read it out, and then there was an uproar.
"Ahh This thing, Lao Tzu also bet ten taels of silver! ”
"I thought it was bad luck, but it turned out that it was lost by iron!"
"Hmph, this dog official, I thought he was honest at the beginning, and used all the money he signed up for relief, but I didn't expect it to do this!"
"It's really shameless, it's worse than Wei Jingcheng at the beginning!"
"Who knows what else he did!"
"Silence, silence! Lord, are you going to condemn an official with just a piece of paper? I'm afraid it's inappropriate. Besides, this gold has disappeared early in the morning, maybe someone is coerced and killed! Luo Changren suppressed the panic and hurriedly said.
"Lord Luo is right. Someone came, spread the word about the people of the major gambling houses. Situ Zhao pouted when he looked at his stinky fart, but he was really handsome at this time. What was she thinking?!
"Lord Wang, the small move, it is the head of the Luo Mansion who came to find the small ones, saying that there is a big deal."
"Lord Wang, the little ones didn't know what the business was at that time, and they were still thinking about whether the mansion they came to find fault with, but they didn't expect that they wanted to unite us to get some silver."
"Lord Wang, the little one was blinded by lard at that time, so he did such a thing. But the small one really didn't take the initiative, it was the little one that Lord Luo was looking for, and the small one wanted to earn money and please the adult, so why not do it? Besides, the small one was only divided into less than 10% in the end! ”
"Lord Wang, what the little ones said is true, please spare the little ones not to die!"
Jin Lai's corpse is still in the hall, and these people don't need to be questioned at all after they go to the hall, just look at the horrific corpse and recruit them.
"Lord Luo, do you have anything else to say? Someone, will-"
"Wait!" Luo Changshan saw that the matter had come to this point, and stopped it.
"Lord Luo?" Qing Siyi asked with a smile.
"Hmph, I am from the Xiaocheng Mansion to the Luoyang Mansion, there is no will of the saint, I am afraid that the identity of the prince will not be able to directly take down the official! The official's daughter is still a nobleman, and according to the law, she must go to Xiaocheng and hand it over to the Holy Lord. If the prince does not have the will of the saint, I am afraid that he cannot be so hasty. Luo Changshan stood up and raised his hand and said.
"What Lord Luo said is very true, so it will be judged by the Holy Lord himself." Qing Siyi smiled deeply, and stood up to get out of the way.
Luo Changshan turned his head, but he didn't react to the meaning of his words.
"The emperor has arrived—"
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live—" Everyone knelt, and the ordinary people outside the door even lowered their heads and didn't dare to look directly at the holy face, but they didn't expect the emperor to really come in person.
Qing Yezhuo was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, stepping on colorful dragon jewelry boots, with a majestic momentum, sitting on the seat cold and cold.
"The emperor is sage, the minister is wronged!" Even though Luo Changshan has hidden his heart for many years, he is still trembling when he encounters such a scene, making him feel aggrieved and pitiful.
"Aiqing, why don't you explain where this horse came from?" Qing Ye Zhuo looked at him coldly.
The people below directly led an unusually tall horse to the mansion hall, Luo Changshan was terrified when he saw this horse, didn't this horse fall off a cliff?
"Aiqing must have thought it was strange, why did this supposed damn horse appear in the court today. Why did this horse that you should have taken your money for today? "The night burns the words, and the sound is like a loud voice.
"Your Majesty, the minister is really wronged. The horse was brought by a merchant of Seamoth, and this ...... Someone must be deliberately sowing discord so that they can take advantage of it? Luo Changshan was already crying at this time.
"Aiqing deserves to be the capital of a state, and it can still be completed now, come here!" Qing Yezhuo seemed to be a little angry, but the corners of his mouth were grinning.
"The Emperor...... The emperor ...... "A middle-aged man was brought to the hall, and when he saw the person sitting on it, he hurriedly knelt down. When Luo Changshan saw the comer, his head went blank in shock.
"Does Aiqing know this person?" Qing Yezhuo's face was expressionless.
"Minister...... Ministers recognize! This person is a murderous felon, and he has already ordered him to be beheaded, Your Majesty, this is a fugitive! Luo Changshan was already a little incoherent.
"Luo Changshan! You spew blood, the saint is clear, the grass people are originally a wanderer in the rivers and lakes, but when you meet a village on the road, you see that a person's life is in danger, Lord Luo's people indiscriminately insist that the grass people are murderers, and they also escort Xiaomin all the way to Luoyang and detain them in this prison. did not ascend to the court for trial, and directly ordered the villain to be executed. The man didn't seem to be too frightened, but more surprised.
"Is that the case?" Qingye said sharply.
"Your Majesty, there is no such thing! It's all this guy trying to exonerate himself! The emperor must not believe the slander of the villain! Luo Changshan's heart trembled.
"The noble concubine is a thousand years old." At this time, the shouts of Guifu and the guards sounded outside the door, and everyone knelt down again.
"Lord Luo, can you know this palace?" Tao Yao entered the lobby with a smile, walked to the edge of Luo Changshan and asked.
"Niangniang is the noble body of the phoenix, how can it be that the subordinates can know each other?" Luo Changshan looked sincerely afraid, this should be the second time he has dealt with Tao Yaoyao, the last time this woman was still in the sea of fire, he naturally knew the weight of this woman in the emperor's heart, and he even took it with him when he went out on patrol, and he was even more careful when he spoke.
"Oh? Keep your head up. ”
"Mother, this-"
"This palace asks you to raise your head and take a clear look."
"Niangniang really fell into the country and the city, which is really my luck in Beigao." Luo Changshan raised his head and saw the full face of Tao Yaoyao, who was wearing a tender yellow flower skirt at the moment, draped in a bright beaded shirt, and the hanging beads on his head reflected each other, and his face was peach blossom red, but he was as beautiful as a fairy.
"Can you see clearly?" Tao Yaoyao asked with a smile.
"This-" Luo Changshan suddenly felt a little familiar, but he couldn't say it.
"Well, you've got to know each other!" Tao Yaoyao covered the half of her face that was originally covered with red spots and said.
"You are!" Luo Changshan pointed at her sharply and said tremblingly, he was frightened more today than in the previous ten years.
"Hongu is! Luo Changshan, you are guilty! Tao Xiaoyao waved his sleeves and said angrily.
"It's not a pity for the minister's death, and I ask the saint not to implicate the minister's daughter." Luo Changshan suddenly collapsed to the ground, and seemed to be ten years old in an instant, it seems that he also really loves his daughter, but at this time, he is afraid that Luo Xin will be implicated.
"I will be clear, Luo Changshan earned the people's money in the name of Marseille, the evidence was conclusive, he took off the top flower feather, escorted him to Xiaocheng and put him in prison, and all matters were found out if there were other crimes." Qing Ye Zhuo said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing." Luo Changshan finally wept old tears.
"Three days later, I opened the examination in Beigao, took the self-examination in the township and county, and gradually took the examination in Chengzhou, and finally took the unified examination in Xiaocheng. If there are poor children, as long as they have good knowledge and pass the Chengzhou examination, they can be funded by the imperial court. I Beigao into the office, no matter the noble background, only on the ability to learn! If there is favoritism and fraud, it will not be tolerated, and heavy punishment will not be lazy! ”
"My emperor is wise, long live long live."
Tao Yaoyao and Qing Yezhuo glanced at each other, it seemed that there were only two of them at the moment, although the matter was over, but the things involved were moving towards the truth step by step, but they didn't know what kind of result this truth would bring to the two.
