The noise came to an abrupt end.

I saw Fu Xuanlin walking out of the side hall unharmed.

When Meng Huai saw that Fu Xuanlin was still alive, he was immediately shocked.

"His Royal Highness King Ling is still alive?"

Everyone present was petrified on the spot.

How can a person who is obviously dead suddenly come back to life?

Fu Xuanlin sat calmly on the seat in front of everyone.

Seeing everyone's surprised faces, Baili Mo immediately saluted respectfully towards Fu Xuanlin, "My subordinates meet His Royal Highness King Ling!" ”

With the proofing of Bailimo, the officials and the people reacted.

"Meet His Royal Highness King Ling!"

"Flat!"

Everyone straightened up in unison.

Fu Xuanlin glanced around, and his eyes fell on Meng Huai's body.

"Meng Tingshi, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Meng Huai secretly said something bad in his heart, but said with a smile on the surface: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Ling." ”

Seeing that Meng Huai was still pretending, Fu Xuanlin chuckled.

At this time, Chen Sima on the side stepped forward and arched his hand: "His Royal Highness King Ling, what the army said about us and others was dismissed, it must have been just a joke with us." ”

Fu Xuanlin said unhurriedly: "What the Bailidian military just said is exactly what this king meant, not a joke. ”

Chen Sima thought that he had heard it wrong, although the identity of the prince was extremely noble, it was also his turn to dispose of an official at will.

In the end, it is a pampered little prince, who comes when he opens his mouth, isn't this purely funny.

Chen Sima said with a hint of disdain: "His Royal Highness King Ling, even if you are the prince, you don't have to make fun of me and other court officials." ”

Fu Xuanlin heard that he was mocking himself, but he was not annoyed, but just showed the token.

The unicorn diagram on the token is lifelike, and it can't be faked at all.

"This king is His Majesty's personal envoy to Hebei Province, if Chen Sima thinks that this king is teasing you, it is better to start with you."

Chen Sima was stunned for a moment, and then lowered his head in a panic.

"The lower officials have no eyes, and I ask Your Highness to forgive your sins!"

But it's too late for him to admit his mistake now.

"Chen Sima, who took up the post of Bozhou Sima three years ago, was instructed by the ghost to withhold thousands of taels of disaster relief funds issued by the imperial court, and also forcibly married the eldest lady of the Huang family in Xuanyao County, and abused her to death. Yes and no! ”

Fu Xuanlin said word by word, and the sweat on Chen Sima's forehead couldn't stop dripping.

But he still wanted to confess for himself, "Xia Guan doesn't know what the hell is, and he hasn't touched the disaster relief funds, the Huang family's eldest lady is delicate, she died of illness herself, and she has nothing to do with Xia Guan." ”

"Sima Chen, don't be in a hurry to deny it, this king has an account book here, which records in detail the amount of stolen money that everyone present embezzled, and this account book is recorded by the ghost."

Fu Xuanlin's words pierced Meng Huai's heart word by word.

The ledger was indeed stolen by Bailimo, but even if the ledger was stolen, what could it be.

There is no Meng Huai's name on it, and even if you check it, you can't find him.

Seeing that Chen Sima bowed his head and was silent, Fu Xuanlin continued:

"When this king first came to Bozhou, he was poisoned by the ghost. This person was vicious and vicious, brutalized several court officials, slaughtered 28 members of the Zhou Mansion, and imprisoned the Tuesday Lady in the Zhou Mansion and tortured her for ten years. All the officials present are in collusion with the ghost, and they should be accomplices! ”

Meng Huai sneered in his heart.

He also thought that Fu Xuanlin could find out something, but it turned out to be nothing.

Meng Huai stepped forward and said: "Your Royal Highness King Ling, the lower officials have not colluded with the ghosts, and they have never been greedy for disaster relief funds, why should even the lower officials be dismissed?" ”

Suddenly, the people outside the door also began to talk.

"Meng Shushi is an upright person, he has worked hard in Bozhou for so many years, and he also got rid of Lin Shushi, a big corrupt official, he is a good person."

"The year before last, my youngest daughter was lost, and Meng Shushi braved the rain to find her from the mountain."

"A good official like Meng Tingshi is unprecedented in Bozhou, and Meng Tingshi should not be dismissed!"

With the first man's righteous words, the others also shouted.

are all people who are upset for Meng Huai.

Meng Huai had long expected such a day, so he had been doing a lot for the neighborhood over the years, just to clear his suspicion at this time.

Baili Zhen shouted: "Silence! ”

Only then did the people put down their raised fists and stopped.

Meng Huai couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, waiting for Fu Xuanlin to let him go obediently.

But at this moment, a plainly dressed woman walked out of the side hall.

She glared at Meng Huai and walked to the center of the government office under the protection of the guards.

"Yu Xinliang, do you remember me?"

Meng Huai looked at the woman in front of him, his face full of doubts.

"This lady, I don't know you, and I'm not the person in the mouth of the lady."

The woman seemed to have thought that he would say this, and turned to kneel straight towards Fu Xuanlin.

"The people's daughter Cao Xi has seen His Royal Highness King Ling."

"Mrs. Cao, please get up. When the king asks you, you answer. Do you know this Meng Thorn History? ”

Cao Xi got up slowly, "The people know." ”

"When and where did you meet? What grievances do you have? ”

"The Minnu was originally a native of Shenzhou, and the father of the Minnu was a famous person in Shenzhou. Twenty years ago, a Lang Jun named Yu Xinliang came to visit the father of the folk girl, saying that he was here to study. Yu Xianliang was nearly thirty years old, and he was not worthy of staying, but his father saw that he was a late bloomer and a plastic talent, so he responded and let him live at home. ”

Cao Xi tells her story.

After Yu Xianliang stayed, he has been following Cao's father to study hard, and he is also very diligent on weekdays.

Cao's father liked Yu Xinliang very much and intended to marry Cao Xixu to him.

But Cao Xi had already married a Lang Jun named Meng Huai, so the matter had to be closed.

Meng Huai was born poor and was a poor scholar, but Cao Xi did not dislike him, but wanted to grow old with him wholeheartedly.

In fact, Meng Huai's family also had some thin property in the original plains, but unexpectedly, Meng Huai's father became addicted to gambling and almost lost all his family property, and was finally beaten to death by the gambling house because he couldn't pay off his gambling debts.

Since then, Meng Huai's mother has been ill.

Meng Huai studied more diligently, hoping to get ahead one day and make her mother feel at ease.

He agreed with Cao Xi that as long as he gained fame, he would marry her.

Later, one day, Yu Xianliang suddenly left Caofu and did not return until two years later.

But after coming back, Yu Xianliang seemed to be a different person, he not only poisoned Cao Xi's father and Meng Huai's mother, but also defiled Cao Xi, who was full of joy and prepared soft for Meng Huai.

Cao Xi was imprisoned by Yu Xianliang, and then watched his beloved Meng Huai being killed by Yu Xianliang.

After killing all the people who should be killed, Yu Xinliang set fire to Cao's mansion.

He took advantage of the gap between everyone and left Shenzhou with Meng Huai's household registration and the soft prepared by Cao Xi.

What he didn't know was that Cao Xi escaped from the fire.

Yu Xianliang obtained fame in the name of Meng Huai, Cao Xi was grief-stricken when he found out, and wanted to go to Beijing to denounce Yu Xianliang, but found that all the people who knew Yu Xianliang in Shenzhou died mysteriously within a year.

Cao Xi was afraid that Yu Xianliang would know that she was still alive, so she went incognito and lived alone in the mountains and isolated from the world.

She has been waiting for an opportunity to expose Yu Xinliang.

Now it's finally made her wait.

Cao Xi wiped away tears and finished telling her story.

Everyone present felt compassion for the thin woman in front of her.

Fu Xuanlin asked: "Cao Niangzi, the Yu Xianliang you are referring to is the current Meng Huai, but this person next to you?" ”

Cao Xi turned his head and looked at Meng Huai resentfully, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's him!" ”

At this time, Meng Huai was not calm, and his withered hand tightly grasped the dagger in his cuff.

"Cao Niangzi, Xiaguan's name is indeed Meng Huai, and he is indeed from Shenzhou, but he has never seen you. It's just a coincidence, Cao Niangzi wants to speak with her conscience. ”

"If I have a false sentence, let me thunder five times in the sky!" Cao Xi's eyes were resolute, she risked death to come here for only one purpose.

It is to let Yu Xianliang get the punishment he deserves, and to comfort the souls of those who were mutilated by him.

Fu Xuanlin raised his hand and ordered someone to take Cao Xi back to the side hall, and then looked at Meng Huai, who had a different expression.

"Meng Thorn History, no, this king should call you Yu Thorn History. In the twenty-first year of Yuan Zhao, Lin Thorn Shi and Cen Changshi ordered all the people of Bozhou to abandon their roots and join agriculture. ”

This move caused a large number of scholars to be dissatisfied, and they joined forces to write a complaint, and the person who brought the petition to Beijing to sue the emperor was Yu Xinliang's father, Yu Chengan. It's a pity that Yu Chengan was recognized by Lin Shushi's subordinates when he was dressing up and preparing to leave the city, and he was arrested and tortured to death in prison. ”

After that, Lin Shushi and Cen Changshi did not stop doing anything, and simply drove all the troublesome scholars and their families in Bozhou to the mountain in the side courtyard, and left them to fend for themselves. Later, a natural disaster struck, and several acres of thin fields on the mountain died of drought, and they had to kill each other in order to survive, even their own children. ”

In the end, they all died on that mountain, and their deaths were recorded in the death register of the drought. At that time, only one person was lucky enough to escape this catastrophe because he went out to study. This person is you, Yu Xinliang. ”

"Later, you pretended to be famous in the name of Meng Huai, and invited yourself to return to Bozhou as an official. Then he took revenge on Lin Shushi and Cen Changshi one by one, and slaughtered the Zhou family who conspired with them, and imprisoned the Tuesday lady for ten years. ”

"Over the years, you have faced the world as Meng Huai's honest duty, but behind your back, you have manipulated Bozhou officials to work for you in the name of a ghost, and anyone who does not obey your orders will be brutalized or falsely accused by you of losing office. Yu Xinliang, you have committed a heinous crime, but what do you have to quibble? ”

Hearing this, Yu Xianliang's lowered eyes no longer hid the coldness.

He suddenly burst into laughter, frightening everyone present.

Two cold rays of light pulled out of his cuffs, waved them and rushed towards the officials beside him.

The officials closest to him scattered and fled in an instant.

Baili Mo just wanted to draw his sword to subdue Yu Xinliang, but was blocked by the panicked officials.

Du Cai and Chen Sima, who were closest to Yu Xianliang, were too flustered and bumped into each other all of a sudden.

By the time they came to their senses, the sharp blade was already on their necks.

"Ah, don't kill me, don't kill me."

Their legs trembled, and their hearts were beating so fast that they almost jumped out.

Baili Mo pushed away the people around him, and the soldiers around him just wanted to rush over, but they heard Yu Xinliang shouting.

"Don't come here!"

With hostages in hand, Bailimo and the others did not dare to act rashly.

Seeing that they hadn't come to save themselves, Du Cai hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness King Ling, you saved Xiaguan, you promised to save Xiaguan's life." You can't talk and don't count! ”

After hearing this, Yu Xianliang looked at Du Cai viciously, his eyes were cracking, and his hand was up and down.

"Sure enough, you betrayed me! Dog stuff! Go to hell! ”

Before the words fell, blood gushed out from Du Cai's broken neck.

Before everyone could react, Du Cai's eyes widened and he fell to the ground.
