It's a coincidence, but it's not unexpected. These cases in Su Bei's hands are all directed at Huang Bingxuan, and Huang Bingxuan is the person of King Qi. It is a common thing for Huang Bingxuan's subordinates to appear the relatives of Princess Qi's relatives.

Su Bottle broke into Tian Qun's house with Mei Ran, holding an official document in his hand, to search his house.

Tian Qun immediately panicked, read the official document, his body was like a sieve, and he knelt on the ground and shouted: "Master Su! I was wronged! The anonymous complainant didn't tell the truth! I only took a small part, but only a thousand taels, and most of them were taken by Gan Jing, the waiter of the Ministry of Works! I'm a small from the eighth grade, and I don't have the power to allocate the warehouse! And I'm not greedy! Gan Jing colluded with Shui Shilang Zhong and Wai Lang to commit the crime together, I'm just a warehouse watcher, the order is like this, I don't dare not carry it out! There is also Huang Bingxuan, the waiter of the Criminal Department, and Cao Huali, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, they are all in a group! If I don't take it, they're going to me!" ”

really pulled out the radish and brought out the mud, this kid bit out four or five court officials with one mouth, no wonder he was eliminated by the officialdom early. It is worth mentioning that he was not removed from office after Emperor Wanlong ascended the throne, but took the initiative to apply for resignation.

Seeing his performance, Su Bottle was secretly happy in his heart.

In a world under a monarchy, where the legal system is not perfect, and where investigative means are limited, the tradition is to "resist leniency and confess strictly." In the face of those people who refuse to admit it, as long as they can't find evidence, they may be able to escape the charge. But if you take the initiative to confess, then your kid is nailed here.

Although the truth is so, the words cannot be said like this. It should be said the other way around. Therefore, Su Bottle hurriedly said with a sympathetic face: "Don't panic, we already have a lot of information and know that you are not so corrupt." ”

Su Bei stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a serious face: "As long as you take the initiative to cooperate with our work, I will definitely intercede with Lord Shilang for you, and I will truthfully describe your confession in the file submitted to Dali Temple." Fight for leniency for you. ”

With a breakthrough, this case can be regarded as ushering in a major turning point.

Su Bottle did not interrogate him, but took him to the Criminal Department.

When Xue Pang heard this, he was overjoyed and said that he would personally supervise the case.

"Good, good, great. With this person in hand, I am not afraid that those people will not recruit. Xiao Su, don't you want to get some commission for the Red Flower Society? And it came out of him. ”

Although there was a major breakthrough, the case soon encountered difficulties, Gan Jing, who had just been promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Cao Huali, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, found Xue Pang and asked him to release him.

Xue Pang said that it was Su Bottle who was biting Tian Qun and not letting go, not that I had to deal with him. Although Su Bei is my subordinate, he is also an official of the imperial court appointed by the emperor, and he is also the imperial history that leads directly to the emperor's book, so I can't force him to do it.

Gan Jingdao: We don't have to protect Tianqun, but we just want to make some things clear, the original use of Lushuncang, is the intention of Emperor Tiande, I still have Shangshu Provincial official documents in my hand as proof.

Cao Hua ploughed and said: Emperor Tiande's holy will rebuilt the altar of heaven, so he called Shuncang, and I can testify to this matter. In addition, Lord Cao, the secretary of the Prince's Ministry of Rites, also knew about it.

The crown prince and the prince of the Ministry of Rites and Rites Shangshu Cao Tong, who used to be the prince's sworn friend, is now a close minister of Emperor Wanlong. He is also the younger brother of Cao Lao Taijun. In other words, he is the maternal uncle of Tang Ning, the secretary of the military department. He is also a friend and brother-in-law of Meng Ren, the Duke of Jingguo. He also had many contacts with Tang Qiong, the Duke of Anguo, and Ximen Zaichi, the Duke of Chu, and could be called the link between the royal family and the gate valve.

Cao Huali was originally Cao Dong's person, and it is very likely that he came here on behalf of Cao Dong. This made Xue Pang, who was still young, feel a lot of pressure.

……

Su Bottle took Mei Ran to the Chengfeng Teahouse.

Although he is still in charge of major corruption cases, all the things that can be kept track of have been handed over to the Red Flower Society, and at this time, Su Du is also idle. At this time, Su Bei remembered the little prince Zhao Lian.

This guy wanted Su Bottle's life, and Su Bottle had to be vigilant. But this matter, Su Bei didn't plan to do it through the Red Flower Society, after all, the matter of killing the prince of Qi was too big, and once it was leaked, it would be a big deal to break the sky. At that time, it will not only be himself who will die, but the entire Su family.

Su Bottle was planning to ask his hometown to send a few people over, but now he also dispelled this idea.

Under the careful management of Lu Sanniang, the teahouse has really improved. It is said that Qiao Dongcheng also came to see it once and praised the teahouse for resuming business. He also threw down twenty taels of silver, saying that it was for bookkeeping, and as long as his name was mentioned, he would drink tea for free.

Su Bottle was sitting in the teahouse, thinking about how to deal with Zhao Lian, when he suddenly saw someone striding into the teahouse. It was Qiao Dongcheng, he quickly glanced at the teahouse, and when he saw Su Bottle, he strode over. This time, he was accompanied by two thugs who were five big and three thick, but he didn't let the thugs come, just let them sit and drink tea on the side.

"Master Su, what's wrong with you lately, you can't get along with me?"

Su Bei smiled bitterly and asked, "Where did Brother Qiao's words come from?" ”

Qiao Dongcheng said: "Do you really not know? Why did you arrest my daughter's father-in-law? ”

Su Weiyi frowned: "Tian Qun is your in-laws?" ”

Qiao Dongcheng looked left and right, invited Su Bottle to go to the private room to talk, and when he came to the private room, Qiao Dongcheng took out the golden knife, put it on the case, and pushed it to Su Bottle:

"Master Su, we are also destined people. Let me tell you the truth, my in-laws are not evildoers at all. His family was already rich, but he told me that he had never been an official in his life, and he didn't know what it was like to be an official. So I asked someone to get him a clerk. As a result, after less than half a year, he yelled that he didn't want to do it anymore. Why, in just half a year, he has been in a lawsuit? ”

Su Wei frowned and said: "Yes, even in half a year, he was involved in a major corruption case." And he has confessed that he was greedy for a thousand taels. But he also said that it was a group of people who forced him to be greedy, otherwise the gang would retaliate against him. ”

"That's it." Qiao Dongcheng said with a bitter face: "I know him too well, he is not the kind of person who is a traitor." Then please raise your noble hand and let him go? ”

Su Bei smiled bitterly: "Brother Qiao looks down on me too much, this matter is personally supervised by Xue Shilang, how can I have the right to let him go?" ”

Qiao Dongcheng pushed the golden knife forward again: "What, too little?" ”

Su Bei laughed miserably and pushed the golden knife back: "It's not about money." ”

Qiao Dongcheng looked displeased: "Master Su, when you first came to Luoyang, you may not be very clear about some things. My uncle-in-law, King Qi Chitose, is a pillar of the Liang Dynasty. If I beg him about this, as long as he says a word, the criminal department must release him. At that time, Master Su won't be able to make a penny. ”

Su Bei was a little strange, and had already told him that Xue Pang was staring at this matter, why was he still fighting with himself?

Obviously, Su Bei didn't know that Qiao Dongcheng had already seen Cao Huali, and it was Cao Huali who relayed Xue Pang's words, saying that Su Bei was biting this matter.

Su Bottle stared at Qiao Dongcheng and said: "In this big corruption case, Tian Qun is not the only person involved, he is already the eighteenth person I searched. But among these eighteen people, he was the only one who admitted it. ”

"My in-laws, just can't hold their breath." Qiao Dongcheng stood up, sighed and said, "Okay, I don't want to say anything more." I only asked Master Su, can I release him? ”

Su Bottle said: "I have no right to let him go." ”

Qiao Dongcheng stopped talking, grabbed the golden knife and left.

In the words of his friend Sima Jing, the backstage is hard, and they want to scavenge money from Tian Qun's house, and it is difficult to start for a while.

Now that he is so poor that there is a famine, Su Bottle feels very uncomfortable. Even the lunch was paid for by Mei Ran, which made Su Wei very uncomfortable. Whether it is Mr. Su or Su Dashao, how can he ever let a woman pay for it? It's too shameless.

Seeing that Su Bottle was struggling because of lack of money, Mei Ran asked Su Bottle: "Why don't you go to the county to ask for a bounty?" ”

Let's just say that there is something wrong with Su Bottle, others owe him money, and it is easy to forget. was reminded by Mei Ran, Su Bottle smiled, went to the Fang Bureau, issued a certificate, and rode to Beishi. Find Wan'an County and ask for a bounty.

No wonder Chen Qianyi was too lazy to do this, the two wanted criminals together only had a bounty of thirty-two taels.

It is said that it used to be relatively high, but then for some reason the bounty became less and less, and in the end, only this amount of money remained.

In order to get this money, you have to wait for the bounty to come over, and the two sides meet to sign.

When this was done, the afternoon passed.

owed Mei Ran twenty-eight taels, and repaid the money, leaving four taels of broken silver in his pocket.

To say that Su Bottle also loves to play, after receiving the money, he did not leave Beishi in a hurry, but watched the monkey on the street. Suddenly, not far away, the drum was beating in the ring, and someone was shouting on the stage, win him, give five taels of silver. Open to the public, you can bet.

Mei Ran said: "I'll fight him." ”

Su Bottle said: "Don't go." If you win against him, not to mention that you can't get the money, a group of people will pop up to trouble you. This is the trick of street deception. ”

Mei Ran said: "If he dares to do that, I will arrest him!" ”

Then Mei Ran jumped on the stage and beat the man.

That person did have some martial arts, and he wasn't weak. But he couldn't beat Mei Ran. was dyed by Mei with a set of wind mandarin duck legs, and kicked staggered. I saw that the girl's body twisted rapidly, and her two feet were as fast as phantoms, and she kicked the man with a halo, and only a crackling sound was heard, and the man fell.

But no one came to the stage to trouble Mei Ran, because she was wearing the clothes of a knife official of the Criminal Department, and she still carried a knife around her waist.

There was a tsunami of cheers from the audience, and some people threw copper coins on the stage, so that the people who set up the ring would send another master. It's just that it's not enjoyable to watch.

At this time, the tarpaulin in the ring shook, and a person came from behind, this person was not tall, but he was sturdy, his eyes were like torches, and he was not good at first glance.

He looked Mei Ran up and down, and said: "The dragon soars all over the world, and the longevity is with the sky." ”

Mei Ran turned her head to look at the man, didn't know him, and said: "The yellow flower is old, and the red flower is in the mood." ”

Both of them have sect passwords, and the man seems to know about the Red Flower Society, so he loses interest in Mei Ran, but Mei Ran doesn't know which organization the other party is.

I really didn't expect to meet Chen Qianyi all the way on the street, I don't know what these guys are doing, Su Bottle shouted to Mei Ran: "Enough fun, come down." ”
