Chapter 14: The Snake Strikes Seven Inches
The next day, the soldiers were very fast, Xie Yi divided the troops into two ways to seize the relief house and the quality shop, although the evidence still needs to be improved, but not to miss the opportunity, first hit them by surprise.
A detachment of men and horses quickly surrounded the place. Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly came to Xie Yi and knelt down, looking flustered: This official, I don't know what crime the villain has committed, why is he so aggressive?
"You are suspected of murder, so I came to find out" Xie Yi was too lazy to say more to him, so he searched immediately. Following the direction of the light, he knocked a few times, and found that there was an abnormality on the ground, and then ordered someone to cut it open, and the shopkeeper hurriedly stopped it, and was furious, "Even if it is Ningyuan Houfu, it is really too deceitful, how can the Son of Heaven allow you to do anything wrong, the old man will definitely go to knock on the Dengwen drum to seek justice." ”
"If you want to knock, knock, I'll go when I'm done searching" Xie Yi clapped his hands quite contemptuously, and the angry shopkeeper's face turned green. After prying open the ground, Xie Yu ordered people to guard the outside and led some people with torches into the tunnel, and sure enough, it led directly to the refugee shelter and was full of grain trucks. As they said, the cars were so heavy that even Xie Yu struggled to push them.
So it took two hours for the carts to be transported, and all the 100 grain wagons were seen.
However, I didn't expect to find that the car was filled with lead water, not silver, after opening it, which was a big disappointment.
"What about the head of the house?" The guard said nervously, "If there is no evidence, I am afraid that I will not be able to pass the level of the Imperial Court if I disturb the private house."
"Don't panic" Xie Yi is still calm as usual.
"No..... It's just some transportation vehicles, what's so strange about most of the cars in my store? ”
On the other side, He Ming sent news that he had discovered the secret passage, but it did not lead to other places.
Hearing this, Xie Yi's brows tightened even deeper.
Soon, the impeachment of the doctor flew towards the official's case like snowflakes, thunder and anger, Xie Yi was summoned to the palace, and the palace was questioned.
Xie Fanfan was a little unsteady when she heard the news, because she guessed that there was a mistake and affected Xie Yi, but she also told her brother at that time that she was just guessing and not sure, but she didn't expect her brother, who had always been calm, to be so anxious unusually.
Xie Fanfan was in a hurry, and the only person who could think of helping could only be him, so he took He Ming to Cai You's mansion for help.
As soon as she got the news, she was ready to stop it, but before she could go out, Xie Yi had already made a big mistake and was summoned by the official family, and Cai Jing's faction had to detain him for an unwarranted disturbance of the people and maliciously planted dirty.
Xie Fanfan's legs and feet were weak, and he was falling into a pair of powerful arms.
"Cai You? My brother" Xie Fanfan is like an ant on a hot pot.
"I know, don't worry, I've asked Ji Qun to go to the Criminal Department with the corpse evidence, I believe the result will come out soon, but there is a lack of human evidence" Cai You's eyebrows frowned, but he didn't forget to reassure.
"Can't I go?" Xie Fanfan volunteered.
"You and Xie Yi are relatives, and the close relationship is not suitable to corroborate"
"What then?" She was so anxious that she almost cried.
"I'll Go"
"You?" Xie Fanfan was shocked.
"Just remember the friendship in the past, outsiders won't say anything, not to mention that the court and the Chinese know that I don't agree with him, wouldn't it be more convincing if I go"
Cai You is reasonable, but the enemy is in the dark, they are in the light, and they have no intention of exposing themselves in this way, if it were not for this juncture, they would definitely not make such a decision.
It stands to reason that He Ming will not make a mistake when he stares at the disaster relief tent, and she guesses that there is indeed some basis, what went wrong.
"Search" He Ming led people straight underground to search around, and there was indeed a secret passage. It's just that it's not long and narrow and doesn't lead to the quality shop.
This must be a trap, otherwise how could Tobe Shangshu get the news so quickly, as if it had been calculated a long time ago.
Someone arrived quickly, furious, "What does Xie Yi want to do?" ”
He Ming knew that he was at a loss, turned over and dismounted and apologized, "My subordinates heard that there are a lot of displaced people here, and the public order is poor, so they came to help."
"Huangkou Xiaoer, do you take the old man for a fool?" Zheng Tongqi's beard trembled.
"Searching indiscriminately without evidence and for no reason, relying on his title as a marquis to despise the court. The old man wants to see how Xie Yi connived at his subordinates in front of the saint today, and he was clever and clever. Zheng Tong's words are conclusive.
This time, the Zheng family, the head of the household department, together with Cai Jing and Gao Yu, these Korean and Chinese forces who had always disagreed with Xie Yi's political views, tried their best to suppress them.
The DPRK and China are quarrelsome, with bureaucrats at the top and resentment from the people. It was riveting enough to put Xie Yi in a situation where he could never recover, and the middle-aged man in his thirties on the throne held his forehead and looked sad.
"At this time, it is indeed the subordinates who are abrupt, and they are still here to compensate Lord Zheng" Xie Yi respectfully apologized on the top of the main hall.
"It's okay to just apologize, wouldn't it be to despise the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, and ask the official family to adjudicate and severely punish Xie Yi to set an example."
"Lord Zheng, you have to be forgiving and forgiving" Cai You has been in the dust all the way,
"Cai Gongzi is not busy with the cultivation of books in Longtu Pavilion, how can he have the leisure to take care of such irrelevant things, it is inevitably a lot of trouble," Zheng Tong said angrily while holding the wat board.
"There is no trivial matter in the court, as a great Song minister, he should be concerned, but it is really a matter of responsibility" Cai You smiled and hid a knife.
"You—you'd better be nosy," Zheng Tong was enraged and angry.
On the throne, he couldn't stand it, and shouted in a deep voice: "Don't Zheng Qing's family want to be decent?" Zheng Tong was a little more restrained.
"Although there is something wrong with Lord Xie's move, it is also for the sake of people's livelihood, there have been fights and brawls in Bianjing City recently, and there are fewer things about displaced people?" , Cai You's tone was cold and slanted, and he was very aggressive, choking people speechless.
After all, he is Cai Xiangguo's son, and it is still not easy to offend.
"If something really happens, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, I'm afraid it won't end well for you," Cai You continued to ask.
Zheng Tong swallowed this breath hard, he never expected that the conflict between Cai You and Xiangye had intensified to such an extent, and today he would help the other family unusually.
At this time, the chamberlain hurriedly came to report, and the results of the examination had come out: "The body brought back by Lord Cai at the scene of the crime is indeed from the hostage shop, and there are witnesses to prove that the deceased is indeed a displaced person by the disaster, but there is no registration
"What is the cause of death?" The official asked.
"The guy said that he was stealing at night and was accidentally killed by them." The chamberlain responded.
"At present, the victims are hungry, and theft often happens, which is really common, since the situation is clear, Zheng Tong, you should also take care of your mess, I set up the Changping Division, and encourage the people to donate spontaneously The purpose of the charity warehouse is to stabilize prices and help refugees, but do you see for yourself that there are fewer people who have impeached you recently? The management is chaotic, the victims are fighting, and there are many protests in the streets, go back and reflect on it"
Zhao Ji really doesn't want to care about these partisan grievances of Chen Sesame and Rotten Grain, he just hopes that the policy will be implemented effectively, and at this time, making this scene is simply hitting the muzzle of the gun, since Xie Yi did to poke out these problems, there is no need for the official to come forward in person, but he made a meritorious contribution and punished some perfunctory things at will.
Xie Fanfan came to the gate of the palace non-stop and stood and looked at Xie Yi for most of the time before seeing Xie Yi, and broke the embankment in an instant, and he didn't care whether men and women gave or received kisses, and hugged his brother and cried like a flower-faced cat, which made Xie Yi at a loss, and he was comforted for a long time before he stopped sobbing.
"It's okay" Xie stroked her hair, her expression as soft as ever.
"Actually, that light ......," Xie Fanfan still wanted to explain.
"Don't worry about this matter for now" Xie Yi smiled, as if he had a deep meaning, and the corners of his mouth hooked and led her to gallop and go.
It wasn't until the next day that the official family ordered Cai You to raid many merchants and set off a storm in Bianjing City, that she knew that everything was already under Xie Yi's control, and only she was still in the dark.
"Brother, you already know about the Night Pearl of Qin Feng Tower?" Xie Fan's eyes are like round apricots.
"Yes, the light you saw that night is actually the light of the night pearl, the pearl itself is inlaid with six light-gathering gems but it is not conspicuous during the day, but at night, they will change their orientation because of the mechanism, and one of the places where the light gathers is the direction of the disaster shed, which has nothing to do with the quality shop, it is just one of the hundreds of contact points used to sell stolen goods."
"He Ming said that the beam of light was in the middle of the night, and the dark clouds covered the moon that night, and there could be such a strong beam of light, I am afraid that only this night pearl known as the mermaid's tears" Xie Fanfan suddenly realized.
"Indeed," Xie Yi nodded.
"But even if that were the case, what would it mean, that I still don't know where the stolen goods are hidden? Moreover, the secret passages in the shelters of the victims do not lead to other places."
"That's the trap they set up overnight when they got the news in advance, blocked the way with granite, and waited for me to jump in, and I will do whatever I want" Xie Yi smiled and explained dotingly "Silly girl, do you really think that my Xie family has not lived in the court for a long time, and I really don't know anything?"
Xie Yi said unhurriedly, "Qin Fenglou is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface, it can operate on such a scale, there must be a lot of dirt in private, and the six famous Goolan tile shops that have close contacts are all places where the light of the night pearl shines, and a little check will show that Qin Fenglou is inextricably linked with the victims, and then it is time to close the net."
"But these people are so blatant! The Son of Heaven has exhausted the machinery at his feet."
"The more dangerous the place, the safer," Xie Yi is accustomed to.
Xie Fanfan's adoring gaze really couldn't hold back, but when he thought about it, he always felt that something was wrong, "Since my brother already knew why he still listened to my words and startled the snake, and why Cai You went to check the scene, what was even more annoying was that my brother actually lied to me" The more Xie Fanfan thought about it, the more unhappy he became, and his cheeks couldn't help but look like a baby fish, as if a needle would explode if he pricked it.
Xie Yi was asked, by the way, why didn't he think of this stubble. So he frantically glanced at He Ming, Xie Fanfan knew that he wanted to divert his gaze and stare intently, staring at him with a weak heart.
Xie Yi got up and ran, and commanded as he ran, "He Ming, I have something to do when I go out now, you and Fanfan have a good life to explain" Then no matter how Xie Fanfan stalked him, he hugged his thighs and dragged him, and even the clothes were worn out, Xie Yi stubbornly pulled out the crumpled hem of the clothes that Xie Fanfan caught, and resolutely climbed out.
Xie Yi successfully escaped.
At this time, the silence in the house was terrible, and He Ming wanted to cry without tears: the head of the family was too ruthless, and now he has become a big wrongdoer.
Facing Xie Fanfan's dark face, his throat rolled up and down in stress, and he quickly searched for all the plausible reasons.
"Miss, look, if you don't plan it, how can you find the inner ghost, besides, isn't the head of the family punished by the saint, how can you make another move, this is not directly performed by the saint to let Cai You go, it is considered a meritorious achievement, and we also repay the favor, right? It is worth affirming that the eldest lady is doing a great job," He Ming smiled, with the word admiration written on his face, and watched her reaction cautiously.
"Inner ghost? Who? Xie Fanfan suddenly shifted his focus.
"Uh... I'll know when the time comes," He Ming thought to himself that he was really going to die, and the head of the family repeatedly instructed her not to know, so let's fool her first.
Xie Fanfan felt that he was being played by a monkey, and he was not happy, so he simply turned his back and strode out of the meteor, but he didn't have a good airway, "So it's all a liar!" ”。
Later, Xie Yi came back after hiding for a long time, he overestimated He Ming, Xie Fanfan was not only angry, but neatly ignored his existence, and the Cold War did not improve for more than ten days, no matter how he coaxed, the whole box of rare logistics was like water, and he took her shopping to eat and play, Xie Fanfan just didn't buy it.
She blames her brother, he is a big liar, He Ming is a little liar, the two are really alike, they are so worried that they think something will really happen, and they use their sister to be extremely evil, as hateful as a bad person.
The leaves that were swept up by the wind made a loud noise, and there seemed to be a flock of crows flying above Xie Yi's head, and it was raining, this time it was indeed his fault, the majesty of the head of the family no longer existed, and if he offended his own little ancestor, he would definitely have no good fruit to eat, his scalp was numb, and his palms covered his face with 10,000 helplessness.
