Shen Zhiyun chuckled.

"Ladies and gentlemen, come into the house and say, in broad daylight, let others see it, and spread it out as a laughing stock."

You Huaxian have reversed heinous crimes, you don't want face or face, she still wants to save some face for herself.

The soldiers of the Northern Battalion escorted the four to the vacant study.

Shen Zhiyun and Jiang Yujin sat on chairs, and the four of them knelt in front of them.

The soldiers of the Beida battalion drew their long swords, and the sharp blades flashed with cold light, and they were on the necks of Tian Xianling, Master Dong, and Steward Liu.

Luo Feng knelt on the ground and curled his neck to pretend to be a quail.

Dong Qiping remembered that when he came out of the official mansion, in order to ensure the safety of Lord Jingguan, he ordered a team of government soldiers to follow them, but was rejected by Lord Jingguan.

"What are you calling so many people for? Are there no students in the college? What should I do if I call so many officers and soldiers over to scare the students? ”

The unkind tone of Lord Jingguan echoed in Dong Qiping's mind, he should have felt strange at that time, the imperial court officials from Beijing, what battles had he never seen, and he was not used to that entourage following? It was just to check the accounts of the school and the situation of the college, but I was afraid that it would affect the students?

At that time, he was afraid that the Jingguan would enter the county silently, so he didn't think much about it, so he asked those government soldiers to retreat.

Now, none of their people followed, the head on their necks was no longer their own, and if Lord Jingguan wanted their lives, it would be easy for no one to help.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Lord Jingguan made up his mind to use the real sword, and if he still insisted on disobeying, he would let them see the blood, and he was scared away, so he said everything.

Master Dong exhaled softly.

Time also, life also.

The three of them didn't dare to move, for fear that the soldiers' hands would shake, and the sharp blade on their necks would stretch back, seal their throats first, and then see blood, and there was no room for resistance.

Fang Yu found pen and ink and spread it in front of Jiang Yujin, and he was responsible for the transcript.

"Say, think about how to explain it." Shen Zhiyun's words were careless, so that the four kneeling people couldn't figure out her temper at this time.

The most innocent should be Luo Feng, he was seriously cheated by Steward Liu, and then he was seriously cheated by everyone in the Huaxian County Government.

He knelt on the ground and leaned over, his eyes quietly glanced at Shen Zhiyun, and he looked up at her.

The scalp was agitated, and he hurriedly lowered his head, stiffly not daring to move.

The strip of cloth in his mouth was loosened, and he quietly pushed it in with his elbow and wrist, wishing that he didn't have a mouth now.

Shen Zhiyun's hand rested on the armrest of the chair, and his index finger tapped the armrest, and the sound in the empty room was extremely crisp, as if it had knocked on the human heavenly spirit cover.

"Steward Liu." Shen Zhiyun spoke.

Steward Liu trembled, and hurriedly responded with a stiff neck, "Big, my lord." ”

He just acted on orders, not the mastermind, why didn't he ask Tian County Ling and Master Dong first.

"You don't want this academy chair, the sound is too brittle, it's not real inside, and the sound of good mahogany is much heavier than this." Shen Zhiyun seemed to be evaluating this ordinary chair.

Steward Liu brainstorms.

What does Lord Jingguan mean by this, does it mean that he is secretly scolded for not being down-to-earth and colluding with the government?

"Tian County Order, this official remembers that you were arrested by a certain family back then, thinking that people were arresting you to be a young man, and comparing other people's girls to Qinglou women, it was really a joke in the capital." Shen Zhiyun began to recall the previous events again.

Tian Zhi was fat, with sweat on his back, wet clothes, and pieces of sweat marks, which looked more stinky than the three people next to him.

"Yes......" Tian Zhi replied with a trembling voice, and the word "yes" didn't know how many turns he turned.

What does this mean, Lord Jingguan, which means that he will be punished for his own crimes, and if he doesn't confess, he will throw himself into the restaurant to make chickens?

"Master Dong." Shen Zhiyun changed again.

"Your Excellency." Master Dong is much calmer than the other two, and it may also be because Master Dong does not belong to the local officials sent by the central government, which is equivalent to the position of the county commander.

"I think you are the smartest of these people, and you know how to judge the situation the most." Shen Zhiyun commented.

"The lower officials don't dare." Master Dong replied, analyzing Shen Zhiyun's words in his heart.

What does Lord Jingguan mean by this, it means that his own cleverness has broken a big thing, and if he is clever and does not explain honestly, he will be cut first?

Luo Feng waited for Shen Zhiyun to call his name, and subconsciously trembled several times in fear, without waiting for Shen Zhiyun to say him.

raised his eyes to look at Shen Zhiyun, but he didn't look at her this time, but when he retracted his gaze, he wanted to collide with the gaze of Jiang Yujin, who was making a record.

Jiang Yujin raised his eyebrows at him, and Luo Feng hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to be quails.

Why don't you ask him, don't ask him how to make him explain, he is just a little grass people, how can He De be questioned in the same room with these adults!

"You all have good intentions, and it took a lot of time to arrange this big show, right? It's all hard work, and it's time to reward it. Shen Zhiyun spoke very slowly, like a blunt knife slowly sharpening the panicked hearts of these people.

Jiang Yujin said that Shen Zhiyun was full of yin tricks.

Every time he interrogated and interrogated, he first laid out the evidence of the iron-beaten crime, and then unhurriedly stated some of the things that were not there, grinding the temperament of the person being tried, so that the kneeling person's heart was like an ant climbing up and down, tormented, uncomfortable, like charred meat on an iron pot, and the hot oil was splashed on the body for a long time, and no one could die, but it was also about to die.

"Who's going to say that first?" Shen Zhiyun asked in a relaxed tone, "Huh?" ”

No one answered.

Shen Zhiyun stood up, pulled out the long sword on Fang Yu's waist with a "stab", gestured twice in the air, and walked in front of the three of them with the sword.

The arm was raised slightly, and the tip of the sword poked the skin on the side of Steward Liu's ear, sinking slightly.

Steward Liu felt a chill on his face, and something wet slowly slipped down his cheeks, bringing a slight tingling and itching sensation.

His eyes widened and his pupils constricted.

"Your Excellency!" Steward Liu craned his neck and shouted.

"Huh?" Shen Zhiyun cut the long sword through the blood stains on the side of his ear and wiped it on Steward Liu's face.

"I say, I say!" Steward Liu felt that his face was wet and sticky at this time, and he shouted in horror, begging Shen Zhiyun to stop.

Shen Zhiyun chuckled, "Don't worry, Manager Liu, my swordsmanship is very good, you see me smearing blood on your face with the tip of my sword, your old face - but the skin is not broken at all." ”

Steward Liu opened his mouth to speak bluntly about the academy, but Shen Zhiyun slapped the sword in his face, and Steward Liu was so frightened that he was dumbfounded.

"Steward Liu, don't worry, how can there be three people in the same room during the interrogation? Didn't you make a confession? ”

Shen Zhiyun walked up to Master Dong again and put the side of the sword blade on his shoulder, "Master is really thin, and the silver that he dared to be greedy for was not used for eating and drinking." ”

Dong Qiping saw that Shen Zhiyun was young, and thought about taking a gamble, "The Beijing official is ordered to investigate, but as for whether there are officials who are corrupt or favoritistic, they should be reported to the capital and let His Majesty judge." ”

Tian Zhi listened and prayed in his heart that Shen Zhiyun would take care of the law, and it would be better to send them to Yicheng or to the capital than to be lynched in this room.

Obviously, in an academy, there are only a few rooms away from those fake students and fake masters who are called to pretend to study, but the sword is on their necks, and they can't shout for help, and those people only care about disguising their identities and can't notice the situation here.

There was silence in the room for a moment, and Shen Zhiyun smiled.

Dong Qiping knew that the bet was wrong, which angered the Beijing officials even more.

"Master thinks this official will not dare to take your life?" Shen Zhiyun pressed the blade down, and the blade cut through Dong Qiping's clothes and hit the flesh on his shoulder.

Dong Qiping didn't dare to speak now, and his lips pursed into a line.

"The master has always been called the official by the adult, and the official only remembered that he didn't introduce himself to the master properly." Shen Zhiyun bent his eyes, as if he was very happy.

"Actually, before the official came to Linzhou, he just came out of the edict prison, and the master guessed that His Majesty handed over this investigation to the official, and what rank did the official rank in Beijing?"

Dong Qiping's shoulder was cut open by the blade of the sword, and he clenched his teeth in an instant, and his lips trembled.

He couldn't bear the pain, he couldn't kneel steadily, his body shook, the soldier's sword was still on his neck, seeing his body shaking, he immediately stuck to his neck, a tight stinging pain came, the longing for life was always strong, Dong Qiping knelt down again.

After being imprisoned and receiving such a big errand in a short period of time, it is impossible for him to be a petty official, at least he is above the fourth grade, and he can enter the palace to be directly questioned in the emperor's palace.

He was careless and confused, checked the school, and arranged for such a young Beijing official to be in charge, the younger he is, the more capable he is.

Shen Zhiyun walked up to Tian Zhi again, and before the sword was raised, Tian Zhi shouted, "My lord! The little ones all know! Explain it all! ”

Seeing Shen Zhiyun's movements pause slightly, Tian Zhi immediately added, "They definitely don't know as much as me!" The little one knows the most and the most complete, you leave me alive, I am useful to you! It's useful! ”

Tian Zhi was anxious when he said these words, his body couldn't help shaking, the soldier's sword chased his neck to stick to it, the cold touch touched his neck, Tian Zhi couldn't kneel directly, and when he spread it back, the sword was going to follow against his neck.

Shen Zhiyun ordered softly, "It's okay." ”

The soldiers put the swords around their necks into their scabbards.

The three of them breathed smoothly for a moment, and fell to the ground, the sweat from their heads wetting their hair and sticking together.

Shen Zhiyun gently swept Luo Feng again, this person was stunned, and he didn't react Shen Zhiyun's eyes looked at him, his eyes were empty, and he gasped involuntarily.

When Shen Zhiyun returned to his seat, Luo Feng came back to his senses, shuddered, and couldn't help admiring in his heart, this is the majesty of the person in power.

Shen Zhiyun asked the soldiers to lift the four people out of the door, and only one person was brought into the house for trial at a time.

He arranged for two people to watch in front of the house, staring at not letting those fake identities in the academy enter here, such as the fake students and fake masters in the study, the handymen who sweep the floor, and the cooks in the academy.

"Mother."

Gu Hanshu helped Han Baoting get out of the carriage.

Han Baoting was wearing a royal blue dress made of cloud brocade, with a slightly wide collar, embroidered with floral and wood patterns, and a hairpin inlaid with emeralds, looking graceful and noble.

Gu Hanshu is much more restrained than her mother's dress, with moon-white clothes and moire embellishments on the cuffs, but she can't bear to look good, standing on the street is a beautiful scenery, which provokes many girls to look quietly with their faces half-hidden.

The pedestrians on the street all looked here, wondering when a wealthy merchant moved in Yicheng.

In fact, it is not Han Baoting who is flamboyant, she has lived in Beijing for nearly 40 years, the eldest daughter of the Korean princess, who has been clothed and fed since she was a child, and later married the Minister of Parliament, that is, the only prince of the opposite sex in the dynasty, Gu Dao. He is revered and revered, and he has never been aware of what he wants to rein.

In fact, there is still a way to Zhengfu, but Han Baoting has been in a carriage for several days, and now that she is almost at her destination, Han Baoting doesn't want to sit anymore and gets down for a walk.

The men led the way in front, and the two followed unhurriedly.

"Your sister Xin'er is married to a wealthy businessman in Linzhou, although her status is a little humble, but that person's family background is solid, and her ancestors have also been officials in the court, and she is not a complete businessman. General Heqi, do you know? It was his grandfather. Han Baoting told Gu Hanshu about Han Xin's marriage.

"I know that there are few old generals who are both civil and military, when he served in the court, the relationship between the civil and military attaches in the court was still very good." Gu Hanshu said.

"It's a pity that after the death of the old general, the heirs are not as versatile as him, the son of heaven is mediocre, and the Zheng family is lonely." Han Baoting sighed.

"Why did Sister Han Xin marry so far?" Gu Hanshu asked.

Han Xin is also a young lady who grew up in Beijing, and they all say that women marry highly, and with her mother's family being a member of the Han family in Beijing, she doesn't have to worry about not being able to enter the big gateway in Beijing.

"Her father, that is, my unsuccessful cousin, is far inferior to your uncle's intelligence and courage, always thinking of using Han Xin's marriage to help him find a good thing for himself, Han Xin was afraid, it happened that when the Zheng family's kid entered Beijing to do business, the two looked at each other correctly, Zheng Junyu gave Xin'er and her father a rich bride price, Han Shu saw the money open, and immediately approved the marriage."

Han Baoting explained the ins and outs of this marriage clearly, and when she looked at Gu Hanshu, her eyes fluttered and she didn't know what to think again, and pretended to be angry, "Stinky boy, what do you think, even my words dare to go in and out of the right ear!" ”

Gu Hanshu came back to his senses, "Listen, listen." ”

"Now even your mother is going to be coaxed." Han Baoting glared at Gu Hanshu.

"No, no, I'm just sleepy in the car, and I haven't come to my senses." Gu Hanshu smiled flatteringly.

"Your sister Xin'er is a good child, she looked like a porcelain doll when she was a child, and I feel soft when I see it."

Han Baoting couldn't help sighing, "I just want a girl, but unfortunately I didn't give birth, I can be envious when I see someone else's daughter." ”

Gu Hanshu could anticipate the next sentence.

Sure enough, Han Baoting's words turned to him, "I gave birth to you, an unconscious stinky boy, who makes me angry every day, when will I find a daughter-in-law to come back?" ”

Gu Hanshu shook his head, "You found me a good family at the beginning, but unfortunately I couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry." ”
