Chapter 39: Little Wenhou was played in prison
As a witness to Fei Yong and Fei She's theft of national treasures, Lu Bu has been brought to the yamen of the Criminal Department for two hours, but no one has paid attention to him.
The momentum of the Yamen of the Criminal Department is not smaller than that of Kaifeng Mansion at all.
Lu Bu sat at the bottom of the hall, guarded by several officials in turn, although he was not tied, but it also made people feel breathless.
The lobby was quiet, and it didn't seem to have any intention of going to the court to ask the case.
In fact, in the back hall of the Criminal Department, Shangshu Li Hui and the waiter Yan Xizheng had already "invited" Fei Yong here alone.
Fei Yong is like a guest here, and there is even a cup of fragrant tea with wisps of fragrance in front of him.
"If the two adults can't trust the official, they can just make an order to dismiss the official and behead the official, why do you have to mobilize the people like this?" Fei Yong took a sip of tea and said.
"Lord Fei is wrong, how dare the two of us interrogate Uncle Guo." Yan Xizheng, the waiter, said with a smile, "It's just that Bao Zheng's words have always been valued by Banzai, and we can only make a show." Presumably, the royal concubine will find a way to exonerate her uncle. At that time, won't you and I still be officials in the same dynasty? ”
Fei Yong snorted.
In front, Lu Bu waited impatiently and stood up.
"The thief must get up." One of the officials suddenly shouted.
Lu Bu turned his head to look at him.
He was entrusted by Lord Bao to come here to testify, if it weren't for the fact that he could meet Fei Yong here and find out Fei Yong's true intentions, Lu Bu would never have come.
What he was worried about now was whether Master Bao had settled Diao Chan well.
"Ben Hou Ping's most hated person in his life - thief, whether it is the national thief Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, or the big-eared thief Liu Bei, they all have teeth and hatred with the cloth, if the official attributed the cloth to the thief, Ben Hou will be beheaded!" Lu Bu frowned.
The official was startled and burst out laughing.
"The dog with a broken spine is just a dog in the uncle's mansion at best, and he dares to roar here? If it weren't for Lord Bao's order, framing Uncle Guo alone would have been enough to sentence you to death. The official pointed at Lu Bu and said.
didn't watch out for Lu Bu suddenly raised his hand, and with a push of one arm, the official flew straight out like a kite and fell under the steps.
Several others were startled and drew their weapons.
At this moment, a guard at the gate walked in from the outside with a man.
"Don't make a noise, quickly take the cousin of the uncle's mansion to the back hall." The official shouted.
Several people stopped.
The person who came was Shen Pu.
According to Fei Caihe's instructions in the letter, Shen Pu hurried to the Criminal Department. When he passed by Lu Bu's side, he deliberately glanced at him.
Lu Bu had drunk more than once in Fei Yong's mansion, and later lived in the mansion with Diao Chan for a few days, and knew Shen Pu and knew his relationship with Fei Yong.
When he appeared, Lu Bu immediately realized that it seemed that this case was very unfavorable to Master Bao.
I just want to find out Fei Yong's true intentions, and I never wanted to testify for anyone, but at present, I have really become a witness.
Lu Bu thought of leaving.
Several officials immediately drew their swords and blocked in front of him.
The two sides looked tense.
There was the sound of horses' hooves, and a man with the appearance of a thin eunuch walked into the lobby.
"It's so noisy here." The man shouted in a hoarse voice as soon as he entered.
Two heavily armed forbidden soldiers followed behind, holding their sabers and shouting, "The holy decree has arrived, and Lord Li Hui is quickly asked to accept it." ”
Several officials quickly put away their knives.
Not long after, Li Hui ran out of the back hall with Yan Xizheng.
Lu Bu was taken out of the lobby.
Lu Bu didn't know what the emperor's decree was at this time, but he guessed that this matter must be related to Fei Yong, and maybe even he would be mentioned in this holy decree.
Half a stick of incense after the time.
The eunuch and two forbidden soldiers walked out.
"Someone." Li Hui's voice came from the lobby, "Bring Tang Lubu to the hall." ”
The two officials, one on the left and one on the right, pushed Lu Bu in.
Lu Bu raised his head, but before he could see the face of this Lord Li Hui clearly, he suddenly heard him shout, "Long live the purpose, the evidence in Fei Yong's case is insufficient, and the national treasure has not yet been returned, so it will be put on hold for the time being, and the trial will be held after the national treasure is recovered in Kaifeng Mansion." The person was first imprisoned pending retrial. ”
As Li Hui's words landed, the two officials locked Lu Bu up without saying anything.
Lu Bu was shocked.
Even if this official is confused, can even the emperor be confused?
I wanted to break free from the chains and walk away, but when I calmed down, Lu Bu just sneered.
This is not Chuzhou, if he escapes, he will definitely affect Lord Bao, and then even his wife will be implicated.
The prison of the Criminal Department is different from the prison of Kaifeng Prefecture, located in the outer city of Bianjing City, which is a very remote place, and the scale is much larger than that of Kaifeng Prefecture.
Because this is the highest administrative body in the country, most of the people who are imprisoned here are some court officials, major cases, backlog cases, and important criminals who dare not be sentenced or cannot be sentenced in some places.
Of course, due to its peculiarities, there are not many people locked up here.
Lu Bu was just a witness, and if it weren't for the fact that this case involved his uncle in the dynasty, he would not have been locked up here.
Two officials pushed him into a well-sealed cell.
Among them, the official who had just been taught a lesson by Lu Bu went to the jailer and said a few words.
The jailer smiled.
"Brother Tai, just rest assured, the villain will vent his evil anger on your behalf."
Sure enough, the jailer did what he said, and in the evening he walked into Lu Bu's cell with a short whip.
"Tang Zhuangshi is not a prisoner, but he has to be locked up with these people, and the villain can't bear it, if you can do things according to the rules, the villain can negotiate with the cell boss and ask you to live with those special prisoners."
Lu Bu was puzzled.
"I don't know what the rules are, and who are the special prisoners?"
The jailer squatted beside Lu Bu and lowered his voice: "This rule is that whoever comes in will first take out two pieces of money to ensure that you will be served three meals a day." Special prisoners, that is, those officials who have not yet been convicted and are temporarily locked up here, these people may return to the court one day, and the treatment will naturally be different from you. ”
Lu Bu touched his pocket, it was empty.
The money on his body has already been donated to Qinglian Nunnery. However, he leaned forward and asked, "Dare to ask the little brother, can the prefect of Chuzhou, Lord Fei She, be regarded as a special prisoner?" ”
"Of course." The jailer replied, "Moreover, he is the only one in the special cell now. If the strong man opens his eyes and takes out two more pieces of money, the villain can take you there. ”
Lu Bu suddenly sneered and stared at the jailer's face.
By the time the jailer realized the danger, it was too late, and one of Lu Bu's hands had already grabbed him by the collar, and with a little force, the jailer was flipped to the ground like a lifeless sack, and his huge fist hit him in the face.
"Ben Hou has no money, but he has to live there with Fei She."
The jailer struggled in vain, and was about to knock it down with a short whip, but Lu Bu twisted his wrist, and with only a slight turn, the whip in the jailer's hand fell to the ground, howling in pain like a pig.
