Chapter 593 Prison Visit
Shangguan Xiu, who was going to go to the court, was interrupted by a young woman's grievances and retreated to the Zhenguo Mansion. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ He asked his servants to take the young girl and the two little dolls to freshen up first, and after breakfast, he let the young girl come to the hall.
After grooming, the young girl seems to have changed a person, with a small face with a big palm, white and clean can not find a spot, the facial features are exquisite, delicate, not charming, and a little dignified and beautiful in the light and elegant, giving people the feeling of a small jasper, like a little girl next door.
After the young woman walked in from outside, she knelt down in front of Shangguan Xiu, choked up and said, "Little girl Yu Qiulan meets the adult"
"Miss Yu, please get up. Shangguan Xiu waved her hand and motioned for her to sit down, and then beckoned to the people outside the door to serve tea.
While serving tea to Yu Qiulan, An Rong also made a cup of tea for Shangguan Xiu and brought it to him. Shangguan Xiu took it, sniffed it, and said with a smile: "Recently, the tea art has improved. β
An Rong's indifferent little face flushed slightly, and he whispered, "Master Xie praises." β
Shangguan Xiu looked at Yu Qiulan and asked, "Miss Yu, is Lord Yu corrupt or not?"
"My father has been an honest official all his life, and he has never been corrupt and bent the law" Yu Qiulan's body was shocked and explained urgently.
Shangguan Xiu narrowed her eyes, her eyes fell on her body, from the broken outer lining to the jacket inside, and then to the embroidered shoes on her feet, it can be said that this set of clothes on her body, each piece is worth a lot, just looking at the fine workmanship, it is obviously from the hands of a famous artist.

There are not many officials in the third grade, and if they want to buy Yu Qiulan's body, I am afraid that Yu Zijian's one-year income may not be enough, and who can say that he is not corrupt and perverts the law
Shangguan Xiu said: "Since Miss Yu said that Ling Zun did not bend the law for bribes, then how did the Taichang Mansion convict Ling Zun?"
"My father was framed by others"
"Who's Framed"
"It's Song Sheng, Minister of Internal History. β
"Oh, why did Lord Song frame Ling Zun?"
"It's because Song Sheng has always wanted to win over his father, but his father has never accepted Song Sheng's wooing, and Song Sheng was annoyed and angry, so he framed his father," Yu Qiulan said urgently.
This is just one side of Miss Yu's words. Shangguan Xiu rubbed her chin and looked at her with deep eyes.
said that Song Sheng deliberately framed Yu Zijian, he believed it, and said that Song Sheng could buy the lieutenant's mansion and collude with the Taichang mansion, but he didn't believe it. The general capital of the Lieutenant's Mansion, Tong Hua Ning, was a person from Shura Hall, and it was impossible for him to be bought by Song Sheng.
As for the Taichang Mansion, it is also unlikely, the Taichang Mansion is not of high rank, only three grades, but he is directly loyal to the emperor, and there is no direct relationship with Cai Xiao, Song Sheng and other officials, and the decision on appointment and removal is in the hands of the emperor.
He pondered for a while and said: "Miss Yu can live in the Zhenguo Mansion temporarily, if Ling Zun is really wrongfully imprisoned, I will find a way to investigate and give you an explanation, if Ling Zun does accept bribes from others and engage in favoritism, then I have no choice." β
"Lord Xie, Lord Xie" Hearing Shangguan Xiu's words, Yu Qiulan was relieved, her face was full of surprise, and she kowtowed forward again and again with excitement.
After the next person took Yu Qiulan away, Xiao Jue asked, "Brother Xiu, does Yu Zijian really have to take care of this case?"
Shangguan Xiu smiled and asked, "Absolutely, why did you say that Song Sheng suddenly attacked Yu Zijian?"
Xiao Jue thought for a while and said, "I think what Miss Yu said is not impossible, Song Sheng may really want to draw Yu Zijian under his command." β
Shangguan Xiu nodded and said, "Yes, the position of Secretary of the Imperial Lingwu Academy is too important, whoever occupies this position is equivalent to whose protΓ©gΓ©s are all over the military world." Cai Xiao and Song Sheng knew that my foundation was in the army, and if they wanted to shake my foundation, they had to start with the army first. β
Xiao Jue took a breath and said in surprise: "What Brother Xiu means is that this time Song Shengming is attacking Yu Zijian, but in fact, he is coming at Brother Xiu, and it is a plan to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle." β
Shangguan Xiu blinked, laughed, patted Xiao Jue's shoulder, stood up, raised his head and said, "Let's go, let's go to Taichang Mansion." β
Taichang Mansion, not far from the Lieutenant's Mansion, sits on the same street, but one is on the street and the other is in the middle of the street, which is only more than 100 meters apart. These two institutions, in modern terms, are the Supreme Court and the Capital Public Security Bureau.
When Shangguan Xiu arrived at Taichang Mansion, the early dynasty had not yet ended, and he waited for half an hour, and Taichang Mansion finally came back from dispersal. Entering the lobby, seeing Shangguan Xiu sitting upright on a chair, slowly sipping tea, Qin Baoshan couldn't help but be stunned, and then walked forward, bowed his hand, and said without humility or arrogance: "I don't know if Lord Shangguan is visiting, Xiaguan has missed the distance, forgive sins, forgive sins"
Qin Baoshan is not very old, only about thirty years old, tall and burly, dignified appearance, although he is a civil servant, but he looks more like a military general, up and down his body, revealing a majestic and majestic atmosphere.
His background is not simple, his mother's name is Tang Leshan, she is the lord of Wenyue County of the Wind Country, in terms of seniority, Tang Ling has to call her aunt, Qin Baoshan is Tang Ling's cousin.
The Taichang Mansion is a special institution, and it must be neutral, and it cannot be ganged up with the ministers in the court.
Shangguan Xiu hadn't had much contact with Qin Baoshan before, and even if he occasionally met him when he was in and out of the palace, he just nodded and said hello, and never had any further conversations.
Among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, if Qin Baoshan is closer to anyone, I am afraid that only Han Ye is there.
Shangguan Xiu slowly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, and arched his hand and said, "Lord Qin." β
"Lord Shangguan did not go to court today. Qin Baoshan said meaningfully.
In the court, Zi Yiling took sick leave on behalf of Shangguan Xiu, but looking at his current appearance, where does it seem that he is sick and does not go to court, this is the crime of bullying the king, and Qin Baoshan has already convicted Shangguan Xiu of a crime in his heart.
"I just don't want to go. Shangguan Xiu replied simply and honestly.
You are really willful and arrogant, he has seen a lot, but he has never seen such a calm person who is pampered and arrogant. Qin Baoshan smiled indifferently, changed his words, and said straight to the point, "Lord Shangguan suddenly visited Taichang Mansion, there must be something."
"I came here this time mainly to learn about Yu Zijian's case. β
"Oh" Qin Baoshan asked puzzledly, "Does Lord Shangguan think there is a problem with this case?"
Shangguan Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said, "I still need to bother Lord Qin to explain a thing or two." β
Qin Baoshan didn't want to waste more of his lips and tongues, and said bluntly: "Yu Zijian accepted a huge amount of bribes, the evidence is conclusive, and now that he and his wife have confessed, there is nothing to say about this case." "He has such an attitude towards everyone, don't look at his low rank, but he is a relative of the emperor himself, except for the emperor, he will not take anyone in his eyes.
Shangguan Xiu pondered for a moment and asked, "Now Yu Zijian and his wife are detained in Taichang Mansion."
"Exactly. β
"Can I go to prison?"
"Absolutely. Qin Baoshan said with a smile: "Lord Shangguan is the future prince of the country, in the country of wind, there should be no place where Lord Shangguan can't go." β
Shangguan Xiu raised his eyebrows, he didn't know if he was too sensitive, he always felt that Qin Baoshan had a sense of hostility and rejection towards him, but in his impression, he should not have offended this person before.
He said quietly: "Then it will be annoying Lord Qin to lead the way." β
"The lower official is busy with official business, and I ask for your forgiveness. As he spoke, Qin Baoshan turned his head sideways and said, "Lord Li." β
"Xia Guan is here. Following his call, a middle-aged official stepped forward quickly and bowed his hand. Qin Baoshan said: "Lord Li, Lord Shangguan is going to visit the prison, you take Lord Shangguan for a trip." β
"The lower officer obeyed. "This Lord Li's name is Li Zhong, and he is the Shaoqing of Taichang Mansion, a middle-level official from Sipin.
Qin Baoshan was unwilling to lead the way for himself, and only sent a subordinate official to guide the way, Shangguan Xiu didn't care much about this, Qin Baoshan had a strange temperament, and his attitude towards people was yin and yang, and Shangguan Xiu didn't like to have more contact with him.
In the prison of Taichang Mansion, Shangguan Xiu first saw Yu Zijian.
Yu Zijian was wearing a white prison suit, his face and body were covered with blood, especially on his buttocks and thighs, the prison clothes were almost soaked with blood, and the whole person was lying on the ground, motionless, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
Shangguan Xiu only glanced at it, and he could judge that Yu Zijian had been tortured extremely heavily in Taichang Mansion, and even if he was rescued, this person would be abolished. He looked at it for a moment and asked, "Why don't you heal the prisoners?"
Li Zhong hurriedly explained: "Lord Hui, according to the rules of Taichang Mansion, death row prisoners usually do not need to be treated. "If you can't survive and die, count yourself unlucky, you won't die if you survive, and you won't be able to escape the knife after that, anyway, sooner or later, you will die, and you won't be able to waste medicine."
Shangguan Xiu glanced at him, then at the unconscious Yu Zijian, didn't say anything more, and asked, "Where is Mrs. Yu?"
"It's in the cell in front, Lord Shangguan, please. β
He hadn't gone far before he saw a middle-aged woman in the cell, whose injuries were much lighter than Zijian's, but her hair was also disheveled and her face was haggard. Shangguan Xiu stood still in front of the fence of the cell and said, "Mrs. Yu." β
The middle-aged woman raised her head and looked at Shangguan Xiu blankly.
"My name is Shangguan Xiu. Ling Yuan redressed her grievances outside my house this morning, and kept saying that Lord Yu was framed and wrongfully imprisoned, and I came here today to find out, if Mrs. Yu really has grievances, now, I can say it. β
When Mrs. Yu heard his words, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Shangguan Xiu outside, and cried: "My lord is wronged, and the people are wronged.
Shangguan Xiu frowned and said, "If Mrs. Yu has grievances, even if she says so. β
