Li Xuan sat in his position and looked at Li Lin with a calm expression: "Clan brother, we haven't seen each other for five or six years, this king remembers that the clan brother originally entered the office with the shadow of the door and served as the Hucao of Jingzhao Mansion, when was he transferred to the left prison guard to serve as the school captain?" ”

Jingzhao Mansion Hu Cao is a civil servant, and the left prison guard captain is a military position.

Although the Tang Dynasty will not be as civil and military as it will be in the future, it is not a very good choice to easily change from civilian to military positions, and it is not wartime.

Li Lin stood there, looking a little embarrassed, but then he smiled bitterly and said, "Not everyone has a smooth career like the prince, especially when every Shangguan you meet is not dealing with you, even more so." ”

"Fan Huaiyi, the left prison guard?" Li Xuan somewhat understood.

This time, the guards on duty in Zhaoling were Zuo Weiwei and Zuo Prison Guards.

Led by Zuo Weiwei's general Quan Shancai, assisted by Fan Huaiyi, the left prison guard.

What is the relationship between Li Lin and Fan Huaiyi, the current complaint is proof.

Li Xuan immediately turned his head to look at Di Renjie: "Di Sicheng, let's start the trial, this king guarantees that every word said by Li Lin, the captain of the Left Prison Gate, is true, because when he says a lie, his right eyelid can't help jumping up, and it will not change for many years." ”

"Lord Wang!" Li Lin looked at Li Xuan, and his expression showed an anxious look.

"There is one thing to say, clan brother, is this kind of action to tell the general of the dynasty Zuo Weiwei, you have to lie, this king is under the command of His Majesty, here to watch, if you are not honest, then do not blame this king to His Majesty to play, practice the clan law." Li Xuan's expression had become cold.

Datang recognizes the clan law and clan punishment, as long as the government hears the case and there is no problem with the recognition, then the court can pass it.

The royal power does not go to the countryside, that's the reason, not to mention that the clan has other rules.

The corners of Li Lin's mouth twitched slightly, and his face was already gloomy.

Di Renjie's expression became interested, he looked at Li Lin and asked, "Captain Li, this official asks you, you have to tell Zuo Weiwei's general Quan Shancai to instruct his subordinates to cut down Zhaoling cypress trees. ”

Although Li Lin looked difficult, he still said solemnly: "It is true. ”

Di Renjie stared at Li Lin's right eyelid deadly, Li Lin's right eyelid had some traces of slight throbbing, but it quickly calmed down.

Di Renjie turned his head to look at Li Xuan in surprise, and Li Xuan said calmly: "He didn't tell the truth completely, half true, half false. ”

Xu Yu, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple on the high platform, Liu Sili, the servant of the imperial history, and Cui Sheng, the servant of the Criminal Department, looked at Li Xuan's eyes, and they were extremely surprised.

At this moment, Li Lin looked at Li Xuan with a trace of resentment in his eyes.

With a "snap", Di Renjie slapped the shocked wood and shouted coldly: "Captain Li, until now, you are not honest, come and beat him for thirty ......."

"This temple, Li Lin didn't lie, it's just a bit of a detour here." Li Lin hurriedly interrupted Di Renjie.

Di Renjie looked at Li Lin at this time, and asked with a cold face, "How to make a detour?" ”

Li Lin's expression was solemn, and then he seriously arched his hand and said: "On that day, when the army was camped, there was a lack of a few logs, and the general ordered General Zhonglang to lead his subordinate sergeants to cut down trees around, and it was under the leadership of General Zhonglang that those sergeants cut down the cypress trees in Zhaoling......"

"Nonsense, we are far away from Zhaoling, although we have cut down trees, but what we cut down is not the trees of Zhaoling." Kwon Shancai couldn't help but interrupt Li Lin.

Li Lin looked sideways at Quan Shancai, as if he was looking at an idiot, he shook his head and said contemptuously: "General, this matter, maybe you don't know up and down, after cutting down the cypress tree that day, the person who cut down the cypress tree was also arrested by General Fan Zhonglang and whipped severely, why do you say this?" ”

The eyes of everyone present all fell on Quan Shancai's body, Quan Shancai's face was already very ugly at this time, and his heart was even more worried, is there really such a thing?

Bullying the superiors and not concealing the subordinates, the old set of rules in the army.

"So, the general doesn't know about this matter, so why did you falsely accuse the general?" Di Renjie snapped and slapped the wood hard.

The corners of Li Lin's mouth showed a slight sneer, looked at Di Renjie and said: "Di Sicheng, what the last general said is that maybe General Quan doesn't know, but he really doesn't know, Zuo Weiwei, Zuo Prison Guard, almost everyone knows about it, but he alone doesn't know, do you believe it?"

Speaking of this, Li Lin looked sideways at Quan Shancai and said disdainfully: "And even if he really doesn't know, Si Cheng thinks, does he not know, is he not known, is he not known, or does he not want to know, dare not know?" ”

Li Lin said a word, and everyone present was stunned, and they all turned their heads to look at Quan Shancai.

Quan Shancai is the general of Zuo Weiwei, and many of the Zuo Weiwei guards under his command are members of the Dangxiang clan.

Since the whole army knows about it, then these people of the party clan also know about it, so will they tell this to Quan Shancai.

With a "snap", Di Renjie slapped on the public case in shock, then looked at Li Lin and said: "There is no basis for what you say, since you said that this matter is known to the whole army, then come and pass on Fan Huaiyi, the guard of the left prison!" ”

"Mighty!"

……

Fan Huaiyi, who was wearing a black suit and had a slender figure, walked in from the outside with an embarrassed expression.

He was still wearing iron shackles on his hands, and it looked like he had been in a good time, and his wrists were all grinding blood.

Entering the public hall, Fan Huaiyi saw Quan Shancai standing there in white at a glance, and Li Lin on the other side, with an indifferent face.

"It's you!" Fan Huaiyi immediately understood what was going on, he immediately pounced on Li Lin, and cursed fiercely at the same time: "It's you who are making false accusations, I'm going to kill you." ”

There was a "pop", and there was a startling sound.

In an instant, two water and fire sticks had already hit Fan Huaiyi's leg bend fiercely, and one stick knocked him down directly.

"You guys!" Fan Huaiyi's shackled hands were pressed on the ground, his wrists and legs hurt badly, he raised his head angrily and looked at Di Renjie above, but he saw Xu Yu, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple farther up, Liu Sili, the servant of the Imperial Palace, Cui Sheng, the servant of the Criminal Department, and Li Xuan on one side.

"Bang" shocked the wood again, Di Renjie looked at Fan Huaiyi coldly, and said coldly: "Fan Huaiyi, the left prison guard, this is the Dali Temple Hall, not a place for you to go wild." ”

Fan Huaiyi was stunned for a moment, and the anger in his heart instantly dissipated without a trace.

He staggered to his feet, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but he still struggled and said, "The last general, Fan Huaiyi, has seen all the officials. ”

Di Renjie's expression was grim, staring at Fan Huaiyi and said: "Dali Temple trial, Zhonglang General, if you act recklessly, don't blame the official staff for blaming you...... Now, this official asked: In the middle of last month, Zuo Weiwei and Zuo Jian guards were on duty in Zhaoling and cut down Zhaoling cypress, Zhonglang General, can there be such a thing? ”

Fan Huaiyi's eyes fell on Di Renjie, gritted his teeth and said, "No, there is no such thing? ”

Li Lin turned his head to look at Fan Huaiyi in an instant, his face full of surprise.

Di Renjie glanced at Li Lin, and his gaze fell back on Dao Fan Huaiyi: "This official asks again, in the middle of last month, did you punish the soldiers?" ”

"Sergeants and soldiers violate military law every day, and punishment is not common." Fan Huaiyi looked at Li Lin and said disdainfully: "For example, this Captain Li, who was lazy and treacherous when he was on duty, was caught by Fan and severely punished him. ”

"Slap" Di Renjie slapped the startled wood again, and said coldly: "Fan Huaiyi, what the official is asking about is not the grievance between you and Captain Li, but the day when the cypress was cut down...... On that day, after felling, did you whip the soldiers who cut down the cypress? ”

Fan Huaiyi's eyes flickered, and he glanced sideways at Li Lin, who was full of schadenfreude in his eyes.

The resentment in his eyes flashed, and when he turned his head, Fan Huaiyi looked at Di Renjie and arched his hand: "Back to Shangguan, this is indeed the case." ”

"Why?" Di Renjie leaned forward and looked at Fan Huaiyi with an oppressive gaze: "Why do you whip the soldiers who cut down the cypress after the felling?" ”

The corners of Fan Huaiyi's mouth twitched slightly, and he arched his hand: "Because the last general mistakenly thought that they had cut down the cypress trees in Zhaoling." ”

"Mistakenly?" Di Renjie frowned, and asked unceremoniously, "Why do you mistakenly think it?" ”

"The last general originally thought that they had cut down the cypress trees in Zhaoling, but in fact they were not, the place where they cut them was outside Zhaoling." Fan Huaiyi raised his shackled hands and arched his hands seriously: "That place is actually on the border between Zhaoling and Zhaoling, and many times, someone will cut down Zhaoling trees by mistake, but in fact, the place where they cut that day was not within the Zhaoling boundary. ”

After a slight pause, Fan Huaiyi said seriously: "The last general asks all the officials to come and take a look in person, as long as you go there to take a look, you will immediately understand that it is not in Zhaoling at all." ”

Quan Shancai on the side immediately breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "That's true, you can go and see it in person, and you can see it at a glance." ”

None of you here can fool around at will, how can they not know, as long as they go, the distance of ten miles of land will expand from a finger of paper and pen to ten miles of vast land, at that time, they will all be inclined to the conclusion beyond Zhaoling.

Li Xuan turned around and looked at Xu Yu, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Liu Sili, the servant of the imperial history, and Cui Sheng, the servant of the Criminal Department, with cold eyes.

These three people, who is who, can now see the answer.

Xu Yu, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Xu Yu Xu Yu was the first to speak: "Dali Temple is a case, always go to the scene to take a look, sometimes, someone says that someone killed someone, but the person is not dead, just injured by mistake, so the official thinks that he should go." ”

Liu Sili, the servant of the imperial history, and Cui Sheng, the servant of the criminal department, were silent, and at this moment, the attitude of the two of them was easily displayed.

Li Xuan turned directly to the side and looked at Li Lin who was standing there.

Sure enough, at this time, Li Lin stepped forward directly, turned his head sideways, looked at Quan Shancai and Fan Huaiyi with disdain, and said with a sneer: "General Quan, General Fan Zhonglang, if the last general remembers correctly, I will go to Jiuzhi Mountain to guard Zhaoling...... If we are camped outside the Zhaoling Tomb, how will we be on duty? ”

In a word, what Quan Shancai and Fan Huaiyi said was there.

Li Lin followed closely and said: "Do you still insist that you cut down cypress trees outside Zhaoling, if this is the case, then you will be derelict in your duty to guard Jiuzhi Mountain." ”

If the trees in Zhaoling are cut down, then the ones who will be punished are Quan Shancai, Fan Huaiyi and several other soldiers, but if they are not on duty in the designated area, then all the Zuo Weiwei guards and Zuo Jian guards in the camp will be punished, and Quan Shancai and Fan Huaiyi will also not be able to escape, and even the responsibility will be heavier.

With a "snap", Di Renjie slapped the stunned wood, looked at Li Lin coldly, and reprimanded unceremoniously: "Captain Li, this official didn't ask you, you are not allowed to talk at will." ”

"Whoa!" Li Lin smiled indifferently, and then turned around.

Di Renjie looked at the three of them and said calmly: "Whether the felling ground is in Zhaoling, whether the camp is stationed within the designated range of the Ministry of War, there are people from Dali Temple who will inspect it on the spot.

General Fan Zhonglang, this official asks you a question: The felling place is suspected of the Zhaoling incident, does General Quan know about it? ”

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Fan Huaiyi.

Di Renjie's question was unusually direct, and he was quick and messy.

One word goes straight to the point.

Fan Huaiyi's face was heavy, and in front of everyone's eyes, he gritted his teeth and said, "No, the lower official has not told General Quan about this matter." ”
