Chapter 20: Putting an End of Stolen Goods and Robbery of Lives (3)
"Dare to ask the priest-sama what is the matter?" As soon as Si Ye closed the door, he turned around and talked to Xia Yuanlong.
"Lord Wan said, this Mr. Wei is the most admired by the people, if they see the official sedan chair of the sacrificial wine, they will rush to block the road first, I am afraid that they will miss the itinerary along the way, so I asked the lord of the sacrificial wine to discuss with you and want to change the sedan chair."
"Oh," Si Ye's face suddenly relaxed, "I thought it was a big deal, just change it, you tell Lord Saijiu, please rest assured!" ”
"Since Si Ye is full of promises, I will be fine. It was inconvenient to stay in prison for a long time, so I took my leave. Xia Yuanlong then walked out the door.
Si Ye followed up quickly, and pulled his body to reveal a sinister smile. "Can't you bring anything with you......
"Huh?" Xia Yuanlong didn't know what he meant at first, and he woke up after a while: "Oh, Shu Yuanlong has never been an official on weekdays, and he doesn't know the rules...... " He took out about three taels of broken silver from the blanket and presented it to Si Ye, who allowed him to get out and leave.
There, Wei Huai finished lunch and went out, when he saw the servant coming over and said, "According to your orders, Siye's sedan chair has been carried at the door." ”
"My command?" Wei Huai turned his head to look at Yang Huai and saw that he nodded affirmatively.
"That's right, Mr. Xia said......"
"I ...... I remembered, I forgot, I forgot......" Wei Huai hurriedly explained, but fortunately, the slave didn't notice anything strange, and supported Wei Huai as usual, broke the curtain, and let him sit in; The two of them carried it before they set off.
Si Ye was in Guozijian, not far from the capital, so he ate later than Wei Huai, just changed into an official uniform, and came to the sedan chair. He saw that this official sedan chair was tin topped with blue curtains, which was much higher than his own sedan chair regulations, so he naturally rejoiced in his heart, and slowly looked at it for a while, thinking: I also have a time to enter this sedan chair!
He sat on the sedan chair full of joy and shouted: "Hold it up!" Then he staggered towards the palace gate.
Si Ye sat on the sedan chair and had nothing to do, so he took the book and looked at it at hand, and heard the people shouting and blocking the road on the road, but he didn't respond, and he walked to the palace gate without realizing it; After crossing the moat, he did not get out of the sedan chair, and was carried straight to the noon gate.
Several groups of officers and soldiers were lined up in front of the noon gate, and suddenly a few nervous-looking men were mixed in it, looking at the official sedan chair gradually coming from a distance, and whispered: "The people from the Guozijian are here." "Most of the officers and soldiers around me knew about it, and let them discuss it without being silent.
The sedan chair leaned against the vermilion wall of the noon gate. When several people saw the palanquin man reaching out to lift the curtain, they slowly moved forward. "The sedan chair is a tin top, and the curtain is blue, this must be a sedan chair for sacrificing wine!" Explained for the head. Several men nodded silently in unison.
The feet of the business were stretched out first; The Assassins were already lying on the ground at the edge of him, ready to move. Si Ye's head poked out again, and this time they didn't slack off, and then picked up the guy, grabbed his body, and stabbed him viciously in the chest.
"Arrest someone! Arrest someone! As soon as the sedan chair man turned around, he rubbed his face with blood, and he was so frightened that he was stunned for a long time, and hurriedly beckoned the officers and soldiers to arrest people.
When the officers and soldiers heard the shouting, they had no choice but to take care of it, subdued a group of assassins, and counted the number of people, which was five.
"Since we killed the sacrificial wine guard, then we will die here! Anyway! He laughed for the head.
"Bullshit's sacrificial wine! This is Lord Siye! ”
Several people looked at the corpse lying in a pool of blood in a panic, and then looked at each other, but did not say a word.
"Gotta ...... Gotta, ask him who sent him! The palanquin man hid under the wall, shivered, and said.
Although those soldiers didn't want to ask, after all, they were under the noses of others, so they had to ask as usual: "Who sent you?" ”
They saw that they had killed the wrong person, so they disdained to hide it for the Lu family anymore, and simply dragged others into the water to lighten their own crimes. Nai Dao: "It was the local Lu government who sent us to kill Wei Huai. Unfortunately, it was put on the table! ”
The officers and soldiers all gasped.
"What's going on up front? Why don't you go? Wei Huai lifted the sedan curtain and came out to ask the sedan chair driver.
"I heard that there was a murder at noon, Si Ye ...... It's like someone killed someone. ”
"That ......" Wei Huai shuddered, closed the curtain in a panic, and lay back on his seat with his eyes closed. Xia Renying, Xia Renying...... Why didn't you say it earlier! He gritted his teeth and said to himself.
"...... Arrested? ”
Lu Liang turned his head and asked Wan Heshun again: "Did you kill anyone?" ”
"Nope." Wan Heshun smiled bitterly.
"Oh my God!" Lu Liang seemed to have been hit hard from behind, and he fell to the ground and screamed in pain.
"You calm down first. This is in the palace. Wan Heshun knocked on the table and reminded.
Lu Liang got up in a panic, dusted off his clothes, bowed down and said, "Please forgive the county king for being rude......"
"Nothing. If this happened to the official, he might be even more angry. Just don't forget the rules. Wan Heshun smiled at the long-known 'kindness'.
"Please the king of the county must save our Lu family! This matter is not small, for the sake of my brother is your old acquaintance and colleague, you must save us! Lu Liang did his best to plead, but Wan Heshun still sat like Mount Tai, unmoved, but his eyebrows jumped slightly.
"I'll make up my mind, and you can do it yourself."
"Good, good, it will never disturb the peace of the county king!" Lu Liang's eyes lit up.
"Find a substitute for the dead...... It's not that difficult for the Lu family, right? You only said that there is a slave who has a grudge with Wei, and then you can make some points to the top and bottom of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and many unreasonable things can be twisted out. What are you afraid of? Wan Heshun took a cup of tea and took a sip of it flatly.
"Xie Jun Wang Jiance! I'll inform the government to take the money......" Lu Liang said, looking at Wan Heshun's face, "Of course, a ...... from the king of the county is indispensable."
……
Xia Yuanlong walked in front of Wei and Yang with a stack of files. Wei Huai leisurely leaned on a recliner in the courtyard of the academy, drinking tea, and when he saw him coming, he immediately sat up and asked, "Did you really bring the file?" ”
"Lord Sake, I really don't want to see you." Xia Yuanlong put down the file with a smile, opened the cover, and threw it into Wei Huai's palm.
Wei Huai gently blew on the paper and spread the dossier flat.
"What do you mean by that?" Yang Huaisheng leaned in and asked.
"I went to someone from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and said that Mr. Wei wanted to borrow the file to read; But they turned pale with fright, for fear of offending him, so they did not say a word, but obediently presented the dossier. With that, both of them laughed.
"How can there be such a thing, it must be made up by Renying." Wei Huai also smiled. But when he saw the beginning of the dossier, he suddenly looked serious:
"Look at how you can be so disrespectful of the facts!"
The three of them all gathered together, their eyes fixed on the black and white letters.
