Volume 1: The Jade Festival Chapter 90 The People's Wish
The snow has loosened, and the collapse is doomed.
Lu Pei's sudden death caused the entire Jade Festival Post House and its camp to be exposed to the public opinion and attention of the people. Under the focus, some secrets that were originally hidden by people with intentions still can't escape the eyes of the good people who are full of 'knowledge', and as the shady curtain is excavated little by little, a jaw-dropping rumor, whether true or false, can always set off a sigh and uproar.
The emotions of the people of Yujie Town have been ignited, and the 'truth' at this time is particularly important. All the people are looking forward to the 'truth', a 'truth' that can affirm their sense of public order and good customs.
However, in the end, the fuse that caused the turmoil in the various departments of the government had to be Shi Liang, and the previous failed field mission of Maofeng Mountain had originally entered the stage of closing the coffin, but because of Lu Pei's death, the military department once again transferred the information for review.
However, this time the investigation was without Lu Yicheng's mediation, and the hidden problems were immediately discovered.
The knife catcher pointed out to the military department that the number of the scrapped mecha handed over to the military department by Yujieyi did not match the number of the mecha registered by Aoxue Sect. This can startle the logistics department that was originally responsible for docking, it involves their own jobs, dare not work hard?
For a while, all the personnel worked overtime, without stopping, and after some hard searching, they found the corresponding number source from the internal archive of the cabinet library.
The actual user of the mecha number is Tian Fei of Yujie Xingying 622, deceased. This is a six-row martyr who was identified as a martyr killed in battle during the key war, and the file is registered as a total loss of mecha, and the armor number has been cancelled.
Things suddenly became bizarre, which naturally aroused the anger of the upper echelons of the military department, and the Tianzihao knife catcher was ordered to dispatch, vowing to strictly investigate the root cause of this case.
The yamen at all levels in Yujie Town directly fell into panic, for fear that they would accidentally do something wrong and be implicated. For a while, everyone was in danger and had no time to take care of others, and at this time, a shocking news came from Yiguang Mansion: the higher-level government took over a real-name report from Toshiba Station.
A soldier named Du Yujia took the initiative to expose to the command headquarters that the former commander Yujieyi Cheng Lu Pei had taken advantage of his position to lie about the loss of the mecha, and had been engaged in illegally reselling the obsolete armaments that had been privately seized in the armory for a long time.
The dead will not be justified, a large amount of empirical evidence was exposed at once through the hands of Du Yujia, and then through the military department's knife catchers all the way, and finally completely dug out a waste armor trading industry chain hidden in the two towns of Yiguang Mansion Yujie and Toshiba.
In the past few days, Yujieyi, which has always been the focus of public opinion, was finally taken over by the knife catchers sent by the military department in the attention of the people. At the same time, the nine leaders of the post office and the officials of the yamen have all been detained, which naturally includes Shi Liang and Gao Wenbin, the new leader of the regular service.
————————————
"Lord Qingtian, you must not wronged Engong!" A seventeen or eighteen-year-old lady was quite heroic, leading a group of old and young civilians to gather at the gate of the Yujieyi, and when she saw the door open, before the green-robed official who came out of the inside reacted, she stepped forward and skillfully cut off the way he retreated, and the others around him naturally swarmed around.
Today's excitement is not better than in the past, the official auxiliary road in front of the yamen is densely packed with people in simple clothes, these people are surrounded by dust, and their eyes are full of anxiety and expectation.
The news of Gao Wenbin's detention was reported back to Gaoen Village yesterday, but the news of the collapse of the sky frightened this group of toilers who had just gained some comfortable life.
The green-robed official was just a pawn, how could he dare to answer the girl's words, and was about to excuse himself, but he was hugged by an old man with a dragon clock.
The old man was originally the steward of a big family in the valley, and he had learned a little bit of crepe words, and said slowly: "Lord Qingtian, although my life is cheap, but I dare not forget the kindness of Gao Gong Wenbin for a moment, today Lu Pei is drunk to death, and the dirty things he has done should not drag down the high righteousness of my family's benevolence, please use this crippled body as a guarantee, and I implore Lord Qingtian to be clear!" ”
"I implore Lord Qingtian to take a clear look!" The old man shouted, stirring up a thousand waves of the people, and when he spoke, he didn't care about the embarrassment and retreat in front of him, he knelt on the ground, crying and kowtowing.
The rest of the entourage naturally followed the old man closely, and the yamen suddenly knelt down into pieces, and there were many wailing. This is probably the 'wisdom' of the suffering people at the bottom, the old man naturally knows that the young descendants can't be the master, but this person is the only official he can meet, and it may be very likely that he can meet the only official errand. If you don't seize this opportunity, I'm afraid that from now on, the duty inside will hide when you see them, and there will be no news of grace.
They have no long things, of course, they have no interests worthy of the stop of the superiors, and only by abandoning the dignity and face that can still make people look sideways at this time can there be a slight possibility to win the sympathy and compassion of the high-ranking officials who 'never go out' inside, all of which are both sad and lamentable.
After all, the story of the "Jade Festival Hero" was sung not long ago, and today's old rhetoric can naturally cause the merchants to stop, and there are more and more onlookers.
The green-robed official was already surrounded like this in a moment, naturally red-faced, but helpless. This group of poor people had already held his feet and blocked his surroundings, and he could not always step on their backs and flee in front of the public, but could only look at his companions in the yamen.
At this time, the door of the official office has been closed, and the rest of the green robes will naturally resist the door panel to prevent people from mutiny, and they are only at the bottom of the group, and they can't be the master, but they have to wait for the people who have already run to the inner hall to deliver the message, and they can call the chief official to come out and get an idea.
But after a while, a burly middle-aged tiger in the inner hall stepped out, and was naturally surrounded by a group of green-robed officials like stars holding the moon. I only saw that this man was wearing a green robe at the same time, but his clothes were surrounded by gold wires, and he had three more streamers of three-pointed flame patterns than the others.
The middle-aged man was calm and relaxed, and he had already asked about the situation outside, of course, he no longer needed to send someone to peek at him, but calmly opened his mouth to command: "Go and open the door first!" The voice was steady and flat, and it had a little more heroic majesty and domineering.
Outside the door, a group of Gaoen villagers had already knelt in place, and suddenly saw that there was a righteous lord coming out inside, so they naturally became more and more energetic, and their voices unconsciously increased by three points, and they reluctantly said hoarsely: "I implore Lord Qingtian to be clear!" Give my family a fair time! ”
The man was not in a hurry to speak, but only helped the people who were lying near the door one by one to get up, and then said: "I have heard it: those who collect firewood for everyone must not let them freeze to death in the wilderness." You can rest assured, Gao Wenbin is not only guilty, but also has the merit of proof, the villagers can return to their hometowns with peace of mind, I guarantee in the name of Huang Yanshi's 31st cluster leader: Gao Wenbin will be fine! ”
A group of civilians from Gaoen Village had already received the letter, and they shouted three times: "Lord Qingtian is wise!" The blue sky is wise! The blue sky is wise! ”
————————————
The dark cell was a little clammy and cold, Shi Liang sat alone on the wooden plank, his body had not fully recovered, his face was yellow, and he was even weaker.
He had not slept for four days, his head was drowsy, his whole body was swollen, and his limbs were limp and drooping.
Outside the wall of light in front of him, the green-robed man changed wave after wave, back and forth fifty-seven questions over and over again, even if it was a random question, he had already memorized it backwards, and the answer was all instinctive.
Shi Liang is a soldier, and his ability to resist pressure and frustration is specially trained, and his will is more than ordinary people, so the torture he is suffering now has also increased geometrically. Not eating, drinking, sleeping, and asking questions, for four whole days, Shi Liang's lips and tongue have dried up, and there are a circle of mouth bubbles, but this inhuman torture obviously will not stop there.
But he knows so little that even if he talks nonsense, it is difficult to exchange for an easy life, Lu Pei protects him too well, so that Shi Liang really doesn't know anything about what he is doing behind his back, and he is completely at a loss.
"Please, don't ask again, don't ask again, let me die! Let me die! Yes! Yes! Yes! "The old platoon leader in the next row has gone crazy, shouting from time to time, apparently still being interrogated. I don't know if he is the same as Shi Liang's experience, maybe it is another more cruel criminal law.
Shi Liang had heard Wu Qisan say before that in addition to the eighteen kinds of torture, they would sometimes blindfold the prisoners with gauze and prick them with a thin needle into the flesh, while letting the blood of the prisoners flow out drop by drop along their heartbeat, and on the other hand, they would continue to interrogate without stopping, without hurry or slowness.
The fear of death is like a nightmare, and even if the prisoner refuses to confess honestly, he will often be driven crazy or scared to death by himself before the blood runs dry.
"Of course, the news that can be circulated is only a few after all, and more of it is a treacherous and evil method that people have never heard of and never seen, and the degree of perversion may only be known by those who have experienced it personally, provided that he can still complete it, and then tell you." At that time, they were still in the new barracks, and the perverted Lao Wu was energetic, Shi Liang, Yang Hao, Geng Er, Geng San, Wang Dashi and some of them were still raw melons and eggs, and they were all scared and blue.
Many things in reality are often much more exciting than rumors. The personal experience at this moment has made Shi Liang speechless anymore. (He didn't know, in fact, the knife catcher was already the most 'gentle' to him)
'Let me die!' I don't know when the man has had a thought in his heart, but can death really be so easy?
Apparently not.
Indeed, at this time, a green-robed person walked into the interrogation room with a dot matrix token, and after some docking, he said to the prisoner inside through the light curtain: "Shi Liang, the leader of the third row of Yujieyi, has been ascertained today, you are indeed not involved much in the Lu Pei case, you have been in the army for many years, and you have no great merit, and you are allowed to release today." It's just that the original post can no longer be succeeded, and the military department ordered you to be transferred to Huang Yanshi Shangyuanyi as the acting head of the fifth line of the Yuanyi, and concurrently serve as the head of the right post. ”
