Chapter 41: A Little Late
Lai Hao is fully responsible for going out of the city, and people are easy to forget when they are busy, for example, the three people in the prison, after leaving the city, Lai Hao will all be left behind.
Waiting for Li Jin to inadvertently hear someone mention it, Deng Shi was stunned, "Murderer? ”
He hasn't found out the case yet, why did he catch the murderer?
"When was it caught?" Li Jin asked as he walked towards the prison.
The official knew that he had missed his mouth, but since the adult had already said it, he naturally had to report it truthfully, "It was arrested early in the morning, and Zhu Zhutou personally went to arrest it." ”
Hearing this, Li Jin scolded, "Confused! The case has not been investigated, and the person who died does not know, at best, he is a suspicious person, and he can ask two sentences, and he is actually put in prison? The prison belongs to his Zhu family, and he will be closed when he says it will be closed? ”
Bastard thing, if this is known to the people of the court, I don't know what trouble will happen.
"Zhu Zhutou!" The official shouted.
Zhu Zhutou, who just turned around, poked his head out when he landed, and his face turned pale.
Finished......
"The surname is Zhu, what are you doing?" Li Jin had a calm face, "I didn't see you messing around like this in the past, but this time you were wanton, and you actually put people directly in prison, do you know what crime to blame?" ”
Zhu Zhutou hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "My lord forgives my sins, this is not the original intention of my humble position, yes, it is the master......"
"Lai Hao?"
"Hmm!"
Li Jin took a deep breath, "Nonsense! If you don't hurry up with this mansion and apologize to others, in case people make a fuss and turn around to make trouble out of Nanlin Mansion, you have to walk around without eating, and it is not enough to pick up this layer of skin. ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhu Zhutou hurriedly followed.
Jail.
It was almost dark, and only then did he wait for the sound of hurried footsteps outside, and Baili Chang'an stretched his waist.
The fire was blazing, and the footsteps were pouring in.
When the figure stood outside the prison door, Zi Lan and Zi Yan immediately stood up.
"Li Jin, you're a little late."
As soon as Baili Chang'an spoke, Li Jin raised his eyes suddenly, hurriedly took two steps forward, and his face was almost visible to the naked eye, and he was extremely white.
It's really over now, who is it bad to provoke, provoke this terrible ancestor?!
"Open the prison door!"
When he came back to his senses, Li Jin hurriedly asked people to open the prison door, and the moment he entered, he almost lost his demeanor.
"What, don't you know?" Baili Chang'an sat there, unmoved, with a pair of beautiful eyes brewing a faint and cool color, "Do you need to get acquainted again?" ”
Li Jin knelt on the ground, "The eldest princess forgives her sins, and the ministers are not strict...... Princess Chitose Chitose. ”
He knelt down and scared everyone outside into three souls, who would have thought that this carelessness would put the eldest princess of the regent in prison?
"Very good!" Baili Chang'an got up slowly, "The place is not small, but it's a pity that I didn't even eat a prison meal at noon." ”
Li Jin really has a dead heart, and he can't cry even if he has tears.
This little ancestor is the palm bead of the first emperor, and he offended her at the beginning, and Li Jin was reprimanded so far, and now he ...... Don't say it's the head of the Xiang, I'm afraid that the nine clans will not be able to protect it.
Lai Hao, Lai Hao, you kid is really in trouble today!
"The eldest princess forgives her sins!" Except for kowtowing, Li Jin really didn't know what to say.
Baili Chang'an walked in front of him, bent down and looked at Li Jin who was kneeling on the ground, "Change the word." ”
Li Jin: "......"
Change?
If he begs for mercy, he will only say this.
The style of a literati is sometimes not worth a penny, but sometimes it is more important than life, otherwise he would not have left Jinling City back then and was sent here to be a magistrate.
"This matter is a dereliction of duty on the part of the lower officials, please ask the eldest princess to confess." Li Jin kowtowed.
Baili Changan straightened his waist, snorted lightly from the tip of his nose, and slowly walked out of the prison.
Zi Lan and Zi Yan glanced at each other and followed closely behind their masters.
This made Li Jin confused, and he really didn't know what was going on for a while? Can't guess Baili Chang'an's thoughts, can't figure out what she means?
"Your Excellency?" Zhu Zhutou stepped forward and hurriedly picked up the person, "The eldest princess is gone!" ”
Hearing this, Li Jin hurriedly went out.
didn't take two steps, Li Jin glanced at Zhu Zhutou again, "Go find Master Lai, let him hide if he can, don't come out!" ”
"But this matter ......" Zhu Zhutou was anxious.
Li Jin sighed, "Do it!" ”
"Yes!" Zhu Zhutou ran away.
Li went in and out of the prison and chased after Chang'an for hundreds of miles.
Passing through the corridor, through the backyard, through the back hall, I sat on the hall of the king's law.
Baili Chang'an sat on the main seat with his sleeves brushed, with the plaque of "Mirror Hanging" on the door of his head, and the left and right were "quiet" and "fair" card fields, and he looked solemn.
Shocked, Li Jin knelt down in the hall again.
"Master Li, are you guilty?" Baili Chang'an leaned on the Taishi chair, a pair of long legs resting on the desk, twisting the startling wood and playing with it in the palm of his hand, completely cynical.
The sky was dark around, only the light in front of the door was faintly bright, falling in the hall, revealing a strange atmosphere, which was enough to make people tremble.
"The minister is guilty, please punish the eldest princess." Li Jin kowtowed, "This incident happened in the government office, and everything was borne by the minister, and the minister never complained." It's just that there is a murder case in Nanlin Mansion right now, and people's lives are at stake, and I hope that the eldest princess will not involve others because of this, and miss this matter. ”
Baili Chang'an originally thought it was a personal vendetta of the communiqué, but now it seems that there is really a murder case?
"Go on." She knew that he would not be willing to let him finish his words.
Reader, pedantic.
But Li Jin is a little more sincere than pedantic, and if his quibbling words are reasonable, they can also convince people.
"If it's an ordinary homicide, it's just that, but the death may be, it was a medicine collector or a woodcutter, and it was from a foreign country, after the autopsy, it was found that this person seemed to have some identity mark stripped away, but I was afraid that it would ......" Li Jin pondered, Baili Chang'an can appear here, most likely because of the epidemic in Guangling Mansion.
If she came to the epidemic for the time, then this incident might touch her and change Lai Hao's life.
"Herb pickers?" Baili Chang'an's hand froze, and he turned his head to look at him thoughtfully, "There are marks on your body?" ”
Li Jin nodded again and again, "Yes, this matter is not that simple. ”
"Get up and speak!" She casually threw the startling wood on the desk and exhaled faintly.
Unexpectedly, it also bumped into Nanlin Mansion?
Oh, it can be seen that it is really not a natural disaster.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lai Hao broke in.
Zi Lan's eyes were steep, and she jumped suddenly, and the cold sword was immediately unsheathed.
Li Jin exclaimed, "Don't! ”
