Chapter 171: Secret letter planting
The sealing strategy is out of time, and Ji Ji Chun looks at the hook. As mentioned in the previous book, Maolan took a break and drank alone, and when she was drunk, she was wild and uninhibited, and scolded Wei Zhongxian, Zhou Yingqiu heard the wind and came, and took a bad job to catch people quickly, Maolan Road saw that it was uneven and pulled out a knife to help, but the martial arts were not good, and it was impossible to save people, but he was imprisoned.
Chun'an County Commander Li Fan, relying on power and power attached to Wei Zhongxian, plotted to frame Huang Songhe and was chased and killed by the scholar, he panicked and hurriedly came to the Hangzhou Governor's Yamen like a lost dog, asking for Pan Ruzhen's protection. The two thieves colluded and conspired to kill others.
Mao Lan and Xiucai are in prison, passing the boring time, this dark prison, I am afraid that they can get in, but they can't go. The traitor is in charge, his father's revenge has not been avenged, and Maolan's heart is full of melancholy. Xiucai patted him on the shoulder and said, "The drunkenness is big, and the sun and the moon are long in the cup." I still had some wine, and we drank it. Mao Lan shook his head, he couldn't do the free and easy of Xiucai.
While the two were talking, heavy footsteps came from the dark stone steps, followed by the palpitating and annoying sound of the door opening the door. Immediately, a cell boss with a face full of flesh probed his head and said to Mao Lan: "Stinky boy, get out of here." ”
Mao Lan glared at him and walked out of the cell with her head held high. Xiucai stepped forward to inquire, and the cell boss was vicious, stepped forward, and pushed him to his head.
The tolerance pushed and shoved, and escorted Mao Lan to the governor's court. Pan Ruzhen was sitting precariously, holding a startling wooden shout in his hand, he pulled the mouse's beard, a pair of blistered eyes turned up and down, with indescribable cunning, and looked at Mao Lan.
Master Mei Lianchi muttered in Pan Ruzhen's ear for a while, Pan Ruzhen nodded, and then he danced with his hands, and asked about Mao Lan's origin with spittle flying around. Mao Lan told the truth, Pan Ruzhen was shocked three times, and he scolded Mao Lan sharply, "I have eaten the courage of a bear's heart and a leopard, and I dare to slander the nine thousand years old of the dynasty." ”
Mao Lanjun's eyes shot at Qiushui, his face was thunderous and angry, he was dignified and upright, without fear, and scolded Wei Zhongxian and him in front of Pan Ruzhen. Pan Ruzhen shivered a few times in a row, his body was crooked, and he almost fell off the chair.
Mei Lianchi stepped forward to help, and Pan Ruzhen settled down and found out the previous files. He pointed to the file and said to Mao Lan: "This is clear, it is clear, it is clear, your father Suzhou County Commander Zhou Shunchang, as a local parent official, does not know how to diligently cultivate government affairs and ensure peace, but instead instigates the people to resist the imperial court's taxes, which is simply a heinous crime. ”
Mao Lan didn't look at this dossier, but after reading it, his eyes were wide and his iron fist was clenched. The angry look was as if he was going to swallow Pan Ruzhen. Pan Ruzhen unnaturally moved his bloated and fat body, swallowing saliva in his mouth. Then he straightened his hat slightly,
Deliberately raised his voice to hide his inner timidity. He told Mao Lan that the dossier was already an ironclad case, and he could not be cunning and distorted.
Now that Pan Ruzhen has captured the son of the "anti-thief", he is thinking about Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, as long as he lets Mao Lan draw a charge on the confession and hand him over to Wei Zhongxian, I am afraid that he will be ranked as the third prince in the future. "Hey, hey, hey" Pan Ruzhen got carried away and actually laughed out loud.
The second monk of the master, Mei Lianchi, was puzzled, he stared at the toad's eyes, and asked Pan Ruzhen in a confused tone, why was he laughing? Pan Ruzhen kept silent and waved his hand at the master.
Mao Lan glanced at Pan Ruzhen's annoying face, and said contemptuously to the master: "He was overjoyed when he had something, it was nothing more than thinking of a poisonous plan to harm people, so he laughed." ”
Pan Ruzhen and Mao Lan looked at each other, and Mao Lan's cold and resolute eyes pierced his heart and penetrated deep into his bone marrow, making Pan Ruzhen restless. He brushed his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat that was constantly oozing from his forehead, he was a thief, and felt that it was Mao Lan who was sitting in the hall at this time, but he was a prisoner who accepted the reprimand.
Master Mei Lianchi saw Pan Ruzhen's nervousness, he bowed his head to his ear, and whispered to Pan Ruzhen, Pan Ruzhen was shocked, and temporarily remanded Maolan to prison.
After retiring from everyone, Mei Lianchi went straight in and asked Pan Ruzhen if he had any concerns in the hall just now. Pan Ruzhen nodded, he told Mei Lianchi that although he had not met with Zhou Shunchang, he had also heard of his political achievements and official reputation, and Pan Ruzhen felt a chill from this file that faintly revealed blood and tears.
The master sneered: "My lord, the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear." Dare to ask my lord, what is the reason why you can move to the right and be promoted?"
Pan Ruzhen smacked his mouth and laboriously squeezed out a sentence from his teeth: "Of course it was given by Wei Qiansui, why are you asking this?"
Mei Lianchi nodded, he told Pan Ruzhen, Wei Chitose did things to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and he would never leave a disaster, and he hated the people who disobeyed him the most, if Chitose learned that the adult had arrested Zhou Maolan, but he refused to convict him, think about it, how would he deal with you?
A word woke up the person in the dream, Pan Ruzhen was sweating and lost his soul, and he said to Mei Lianchi: "Master Mei, your words are not wrong at all, but the kid surnamed Zhou is a hard bone at first glance, and it may not be easy to ask a word from his mouth." ”
Mei Lianchi glanced at Pan Ruzhen, who was helpless, and couldn't help but sneer. He said to Pan Ruzhen: "My lord is such a smart person, how come he is confused at the critical moment,
In order to achieve our goals, we can do whatever it takes, as long as we let Zhou Maolan sign the confession. ”
Pan Ruzhen was born with evil and courage, and that night he ordered the evil messenger to escort Mao Lan into the lobby to arrange a night trial. This time, Pan Ruzhen's evil eyes rolled up, completely tearing off the mask of a hypocrite, he blew his beard and glared at Mao Lan and said: "The surname is Zhou, I don't have time to be poor mushrooms with you here, why don't you quickly explain how you slandered Wei Qiansui with that sour Xiucai?"
Mao Lan gritted her teeth and said: "Pan Ruzhen, what is the trouble for wanting to add to the crime, I met Xiucai Pingshui, where did I come from?"
Swallowing and spitting. Mao Lan's "thorn" really made him helpless.
At this time, it was the master Mei Lianchi who came out to relieve the siege, and he said to Pan Ruzhen: "My lord, this kid has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and he doesn't give him some color to see, he still thinks that adults are deaf ears-ornaments." ”
Pan Ruzhen nodded again and again, pointed at Mao Lan and said, "The tiger is not powerful, you treat me as a sick cat." Come on, give him fifty boards. With an order, Pan Ruzhen threw a stick and drank the official to beat Maolan to the point that her skin was open.
Although it was a combination of sticks, Mao Lan did not give in, and scolded constantly. Master Mei Lianchi jumped to his feet and shouted: "Beat, beat, beat, beat me to death!" As soon as he spoke, the sticks that were as dense as the rain were fierce and powerful on Mao Lan's body. Mao Lan couldn't stand it and fainted in pain.
The master had a sharp mouth and a sinister smile, he held the proposed "confession" in his hand, walked in front of Mao Lan, grabbed his hand, and drew a charge on the confession. He proudly handed over the confession to Pan Ruzhen, and said to him: "Master Lao, write a letter to Wei Qiansui and bring it with you, so that you will be a great achievement." ”
Pan Ruzhen held the confession in his hand, his eyebrows fluttered with joy, and he said to Mei Lianchi: "Master Mei, it's all up to you this time, and when I get up step by step, my lord will naturally be indispensable to your benefits." ”
Mei Lianchi tended to be inflammatory, and echoed casually: "Master, I am here to enjoy the shade under the big tree, I have to be shaded by you, and the small ones are also stained, follow the master You eat fragrant and drink spicy food, haha." ”
After the two thieves decided to kill the people, Pan Ruzhen immediately fabricated a false letter of disclosure, together with the confession of the trial, and handed it to his confidants, and sent it to the Beijing division at a gallop in the starry night.
If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do. The scholar searched for Li Fan everywhere and could not be found, he was annoyed, but he saw the governor Yamen flashing out of a fast horse at night, and then the door of the mansion opened, Mei Lianchi said sneakily: "You be careful on the road, don't drink and make mistakes, this letter is very important, and it must be sent to Wei Qiansui's mansion." ”
The man flew and jumped onto the horse, and Mei Lianchi covered the door of the mansion and turned back. The scholar heard it on the eaves very clearly, this matter involved Wei Zhongxian, a thief, and it must be some kind of unseemly deed, thinking of Tian Ergeng's sneak attack, the scholar of Xiaoyao hated it so much. This group of wolf-hearted dogs, who brutalized the people and made the court into a miasma, was bumped into by him today, and he would never stand idly by.
Thinking of this, the scholar was elegant, walking the dragon, exerting thousands of miles and days, closely following behind the messenger. The horseman was galloping, and the scholar climbed the tree and hid his form, and he was the one who delivered the letter, and he did not find that anyone was following him.
After arriving at a dense forest, the messenger refused to hold the reins and carefully inquired about the situation in the forest. At this time, the scholar saw that the forest was quiet here, and it was the place to start, so he flew up and landed in front of the messenger.
The messenger was surprised by the sudden appearance of the scholar, but he quickly calmed down, and he immediately shouted: "Where did you come from, the strong man who dares to stand in my way, it's simply impatient." ”
The scholar laughed, pointed to the messenger and said, "Acquaintance, hurry up and take out the letter, the old man can spare your life." ”
As soon as he said it, the messenger knew that he did not come for money, but if the letter was lost, he could not escape death. It was the messenger who turned a blind eye and refused to hand over the letter.
The scholar said angrily: "Toast and don't eat and drink, the old man gave you a chance, but you don't know how to cherish it." ”
The messenger rolled his eyes and spat on the ground, and he scolded and said, "Sour, let me go to the village to teach you the book, hahaha." With that, he instigated his horsewhip and wanted to trample over the body of the scholar.
After he rose up, he cut the leaves and Qiufeng's legs and kicked the messenger's chest fiercely, and the messenger "oops" and fell to the ground.
The scholar took out the letter from his body, he opened it and looked at it, and couldn't help but be shocked, it turned out that Zhou County's beloved son had fallen into the hands of Pan Ruzhen, a thief.
