Tang Xiaohao had no choice but to say to Zheng Jing: "Zheng Kuaiyu, you have also seen it, my father doesn't let me go out, and he doesn't let others enter the house, so he can only communicate in front of the door." Otherwise, you go back and tell the official who arrested the yamen, and let him get the arrest paperwork. ”

Zheng Jing pondered for a while: "Or, I'll tell General Tang?" ”

After that, Zheng Jing was ready to ask the ironclad guard at the door to help him report.

Tang Xiaohao stretched out his hand to stop Zheng Jing: "Wait a while, isn't there another thing that is directly related to me?" ”

Zheng Jing then remembered: "Last night, there was a series of murders in Shendu City, two dead and two injured. ”

Tang Xiaohao was puzzled: "What does it matter if you have me?" ”

Zheng Jing explained: "The dead and injured were a family of four, and the death was the grandfather and father, although the mother was injured, they both came back to life. ”

Tang Xiaohao frowned: "What does that have to do with me?" ”

Zheng Jing said unhurriedly: "The patrolling Shendu Army will arrive first, and then notify us." ”

Tang Xiaohao was a little helpless: "Can you finish the words at one time?" Why is it related to me? You can't say that I killed people, do you? ”

Zheng Jing nodded and said, "That's right, the surviving mothers all point out that you are the murderer." ”

Tang Xiaohao was stunned, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and the ironclad guards around him also looked at Tang Xiaohao, but no one was surprised, because if someone reported to the official that Tang Xiaohao was a hooligan, they would believe it, but if they wanted to kill someone, they wouldn't believe it if they died.

Tang Xiaohao settled down and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Zheng Jing said: "The family that sells baked cakes is in Nanshi, about three o'clock, a person suddenly broke into the house, the man didn't say a word, he picked up the wooden stick next to him and killed two men, and then chased and killed the two women, the mother's cry for help in the house was heard by the neighbors, and the neighbors came to help, and the murderer immediately fled. ”

When is the child? Tang Xiaohao clearly remembered that the Tang Mansion where the little bell left when he was close to the son, and he was monitoring the little bell and Sister Hong in the Dongci residence at the time of the crime, but if he said it, the little bell would not admit it, even if he did, how could the little bell explain that he left late at night? If she confesses Sister Hong and her back's plan, she will have to lose her head.

That's my husband, ahh

Tang Xiaohao asked again: "You continue." ”

Zheng Jing continued: "The shouts of Nanshi attracted the attention of the patrolling Shendu Army, and the Shendu Army immediately arrived, and after a little checking, they thought that this matter should be under our control, so they asked the people to arrest the Yamen to report to the official, and the Shendu Army temporarily helped us guard the scene, and when we arrived, the Shendu Army also withdrew." ”

Tang Xiaohao asked: "Did you personally investigate the scene?" ”

Zheng Jing nodded: "Yes, last night happened to be my shift, I took three people to personally investigate the scene, two dead and two injured, the surviving mother and wife insisted that you killed the person." ”

Tang Xiaohao immediately asked, "Why?" Do you know me? ”

Zheng Jing said: "Tang Gongzi, do you think there are still people in Shendu City who don't know you?" Don't talk about Shendu City, everyone in the ten miles and eight towns outside Shendu City knows you. ”

How can this be explained? If I insist that I didn't leave the Tang Mansion last night, but the four people on the Twelve Fangs, Leopard Niang, Turtle Slave, Jichun Niang and Hanshuang have seen me again. Even when they saw me, it was almost ugly, but at the time of the crime, no one testified for themselves.

According to Zheng Jing, the incident was about three o'clock in the morning, and then Tang Xiaohao began to follow Sister Hong from the residence in Dongshi, and when he tracked all the way to the twelve squares in Nanshi, he was probably ugly.

In other words, even if Leopard Niang and these people can be witnesses, it can only prove that he appeared in the Twelve Fangs after the ugly time, but it only increases Tang Xiaohao's suspicion.

Zheng Jing said again at this time: "Although the two ladies did not describe your appearance clearly, they made it clear what you were wearing. ”

Tang Xiaohao immediately thought of the uniform night held by the Red Card Twelve Square last night, and one of the finale shows was the scumbag uniform, where almost everyone had a piece of their own clothes, in other words, if someone wanted to pretend to be themselves, it was not a difficult thing.

But is it appropriate to speak out about it now? The strangest thing is that Zheng Jing doesn't look like he's here to take him back, but that the group of beggars suing Jelly Beans is more important, what does this mean?

Tang Xiaohao simply asked, "Then are you going to take me back for questioning?" ”

Zheng Jing shook his head with a serious face: "Why did you take you back for questioning?" Everyone knows that you are a coward who is strong on the outside, although you look arrogant and domineering on weekdays, but you are just a quick tongue, and you can tease the common people, not to mention killing people, if someone really does something with you, you have to kneel down and cry and beg for mercy. ”

After listening to Zheng Jing's words, the ironclad guards next to him couldn't help but want to laugh.

Tang Xiaohao also showed an extremely ugly smile, although he knew that Zheng Jing was just seeking truth from facts, because that was the opinion of the people of Shendu about himself, and it was also the image he had painstakingly created, but this beast couldn't be a little cautious when using words?

It's just that last night's events were too strange.

At this moment, Zheng Jing suddenly saw something, and knelt on one knee with the ironclad guards at the door.

Tang Xiaohao realized that Tang Chen was coming, turned to look at Tang Chen and said, "Dad." ”

Tang Chen walked up to Zheng Jing with an expressionless face and asked, "You are the one who arrested the Yamen, right?" ”

Zheng Jing immediately said: "Back to the general, the villain is the quick arrest of Zheng Jing who arrested the yamen." ”

Tang Chen asked again: "What's the matter with you?" ”

Zheng Jing has always been businesslike, and he doesn't talk about any feelings, and he doesn't know how to be tactful, so he told Tang Chen both things.

The little bell in the side courtyard also felt strange when she saw that Tang Xiaohao had not come back for a long time, so she walked out of the side courtyard and came to the front yard, and then saw everyone at the gate, but she didn't dare to step forward, just stood there and waited.

After listening to Zheng Jing's narration, Tang Chen glanced at Tang Xiaohao, pondered for a moment and said: "Xiaohao, you will take your fat cat to arrest the yamen, deal with the matter, and by the way, make it clear to the official that you have not left the Tang Mansion in the past few days, and everyone in the family can testify for you." ”

Tang Xiaohao knew that his father would definitely let him go, but not for the Jelly Bean, but for the homicide. Tang Xiaohao's identity, coupled with the fact that he wants to be a concubine, now that this kind of thing has happened, he must not use Tang Chen's official position and power in his hands to exert pressure, in that case, it will only backfire, in case the matter is big and reaches the emperor's ears, the matter will be really troublesome.

In order to demonstrate the so-called fairness, justice and openness, Tang Chen would not accompany Tang Xiaohao, nor did he send an ironclad guard, but just let the domestic servant Tang Dun accompany him.

Tang Xiaohao, Tang Dun and Zheng Jing left, and the little bell didn't dare to ask, and Tang Chen just looked at her with a strange look and went to the front hall.

The little bell, who was full of doubts, suddenly felt uneasy.

——

After Tang Xiaohao came to the arrest yamen near Beishi, he just walked into the main hall with jelly beans in his arms, and the group of beggars kneeling under the hall turned their heads to look at him with a brush, and their eyes were full of anger, and the boy who was about eight years old was still holding the puppy, and his eyes seemed to be swollen from crying.

The official who sat firmly in the hall pretended to be a posture, grabbed the startled wood and patted it: "Who is standing in the hall?" ”

It is not the first time that Tang Xiaohao has stood in the lobby of the arrest yamen, and he is naturally very familiar with the official Sima Bang. Not long ago, when Tang Wangshu got married, the horse bracelet also came to the house to give gifts and pat the fart, and at that time he swore that when Tang Xiaohao became a concubine, he would definitely give a big gift or something.

But this is above the lobby, and Tang Xiaohao can only follow the rules, but he decided to straighten the horse bracelet and knelt down directly: "Xiaomin Tang Xiaohao." ”

When Ma Bang saw Tang Xiaohao kneeling, he was directly stunned, Tang Xiaohao was Tang Chen's son and a person who was about to become a concubine, how could he kneel him? So, Ma Bang immediately glanced at Zheng Jing next to Tang Xiaohao, and motioned him to quickly help Tang Xiaohao up, because he couldn't say anything, and those beggars were all watching.

Tang Xiaohao saw that the horse bracelet was full of panic, and deliberately said: "My lord, I have no official position, no fame, and no title, and what I kneel is also the plaque hanging on the head of the adult, and that plaque represents the law of Dachang, and the law of the small people kneeling, not the lord." ”

What Tang Xiaohao meant by these words could be heard by everyone present.

When Ma Bang heard this, he immediately calmed down, knowing that Tang Xiaohao had also given himself enough face, so he asked, "Do you know what called you here?" ”

Tang Xiaohao said: "Xiaomin has already learned from Zheng Kuaizhuo, Xiaomin is here in the hope of reaching a reconciliation with these people. After that, Tang Xiaohao looked at the beggars with a smile, "Excuse me, how many of them want compensation?" Or do you want my jelly beans to be responsible? ”

As he spoke, Tang Xiaohao grabbed the back of Jelly Bean's neck and lifted it up directly.

Originally, Jelly Bean was still confused, but when he saw the puppy, his eyes widened, and he tried to turn his head to look at Tang Xiaohao, which means: You won't have a lawsuit for this kind of thing, right!?

The old beggar at the head said: "Not only to be responsible, but also to compensate." ”

Tang Xiaohao was anxious to solve this matter first, so he said: "Otherwise, that puppy and its offspring, I will take it back to the Tang Mansion and give you another sum of money, how about it?" ”

As soon as Tang Xiaohao finished speaking, before the beggars could say anything, the horse bracelet immediately made a decision: "Okay, it's such a happy decision!" ”

Decide to have a good time! You have to at least wait for people to express their opinions, and you don't have to be so obvious, right? Tang Xiaohao stared at the horse bracelet sitting in the hall.

The horse bracelet understood, and immediately looked at the beggars: "What do you think?" ”

The old beggar at the head thanked him: "Thank you, my lord, for avenging the grass people, my lord is wise." ”

Yes? Is that wise? You're here to extort money, aren't you!? Tang Xiaohao watched the eight-year-old child come over with the puppy in his arms, and directly stuffed the purebred pastoral dog to Tang Xiaohao, and advised: "From now on, you are only allowed to love it as a dog, you must pet it, you can't lie to it, you must do everything you promise it, you must be sincere in everything you say to it, you must not bully it, scold it, and believe it." Others bully it, you have to stand up and help it as soon as possible, you have to be happy with it, it's not happy, you have to coax it to be happy, you always think it's the most beautiful, you have to dream of it, it's only in your heart, understand? ”

Tang Xiaohao stared at the child in front of him dumbfounded, he didn't expect an eight-year-old child to speak so eloquently, but, shouldn't these words be said to Jelly Bean!? What the hell is going on with me?

Tang Xiaohao threw the jelly bean in front of the puppy and repeated what the boy had said.

The puppy snuggled up to the bewildered jelly beans with a happy face, and the scene made everyone present teary-eyed.

Just as Tang Xiaohao handed over the money, the kid whispered, "It was Hall Master Wu who asked me to come to you." ”

Yes? Tang Xiaohao was stunned, but immediately came back to his senses and realized that his guess was correct, this group of people was really from the beggar gang, and they were also sent by the eldest brother Wu Tianlu, but do you have to use this way?

The child handed the bamboo basket containing the dogs and cats to Tang Xiaohao: "I can reunite their whole family, the son is really a good person." ”

I'm going to have to give this dead cat to the gelding when I get home!

After the beggars thanked him and left, the horse bracelet immediately ran down, and was about to kneel Tang Xiaohao, but was supported by Tang Xiaohao.

Ma Bang said in a low voice: "Tang Gongzi, I also have no choice but to ask Gongzi to atone for his sins." ”

Tang Xiaohao said expressionlessly: "Everything in the court is according to the rules, you have done nothing wrong, this cat and dog ethics case is clear, now let's talk about last night's homicide." ”

Although Tang Xiaohao said this, he still pondered how to meet those beggars, Wu Tianlu sent them to find him, there must be something important.

The horse bracelet asked Zheng Jing to wait outside, and he led Tang Xiaohao to the morgue.

The morgue of the Yamen is almost the same as that of the Yamen of the Shendu Army, except that there are more of them used to park the corpses, there are twenty-four, and now there are only two pits soaked in medicinal water for the corpses, which also shows from the side that there has not been a single case of death in the Shendu in recent times.

Before entering the house, Ma Bang took a medicine towel from the medicine barrel at the door and asked Tang Xiaohao to cover his mouth and nose, because the smell in the morgue was so bad that ordinary people would faint immediately if they took a deep breath inside.

When the two came to the corpse pit, Ma Bang pointed to the two corpses and said, "Tang Gongzi, these are the two people who died last night, and the reason why I believe that it was not you who did it is because of the scars on the corpses." ”

Tang Xiaohao squatted down and looked carefully, and found that the two corpses each had only one wound, to be precise, bruises, both in the heart, that is, these two people were punched in the heart and died.

Of course, Ma Bang thought that Tang Xiaohao didn't understand, so he explained: "Judging from the scars, these two people were killed by a punch in the heart by a powerful person of Kong Wu, this murderer is definitely not an ordinary person, Tang Gongzi does not know martial arts, and he does not have natural divine power, so naturally it is not you who did it." ”

Tang Xiaohao deliberately asked: "What if I know kung fu and natural power?" ”

Ma Bang said with a smile: "Tang Gongzi said that he laughed, Xia Guan thinks that this case was not committed by Tang Gongzi, not only because of what he said before, but also because the surviving mother insisted that Gongzi was the murderer." ”

Tang Xiaohao deliberately asked, "What do you say?" ”
