Chapter 85: Pei Jun goes to prison
Most of the Pei Mansion Zhuang Ding who accompanied him were good sons of good families who had been farming for generations, and they had a natural fear of the government from the bottom of their hearts, but they had always been accustomed to obeying Pei Jun's orders.
"Pick up the guys in your hands, I'm afraid of a ball, there are big officials who take care of the big things for you, you have seen the previous officials in this state who dare to eat the Pei family", Pi Wan cheered up the Zhuang Ding loudly, and then scolded the undertaker Lang said, "Don't talk about what famous hall will be tried, and if you kill on the spot, Lao Tzu will not go with you, and you can make Lao Tzu very much, if the yamen of Haozhou does not have the help of the Pei family, what will become of the dispatch of the grain collector, you can think about it."
The Pei family can be called a deep-rooted local power in Haozhou, coupled with the relationship between marriages, world relations or business contacts with other big clans, if they join forces to secretly resist the government, I am afraid that the whole Haozhou will be in a mess, and the undertaker heard Pi Wan so blatantly coercing the government, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded on the spot, but after he silently weighed one or two in his heart, he still gritted his teeth and beckoned the soldiers: "Capturing Pei Jun is the express order of Lord Zhizhou, give it to me, dare to have someone who does not abandon the weapon, kill."
The soldiers of the Song army were forced by Cheng Shilang's strict orders, and they were afraid that Pei Jun would find their own trouble afterwards, so they had to look at each other, and they tore their throats and shouted "Hurry up and abandon the weapon", "Hugh is confused and resist the government" and the like, but no matter how Cheng Shilang urges, he refuses to take it seriously, making the two sides stalemate, and the scene is very embarrassing.
"Stop", Pei Jun suddenly reached out and pressed Pi Wan's hand holding the knife, took two steps forward and asked the undertaker, "The yamen always has to have a reason to take people, I don't know what Pei has done, if it is really Pei's fault, then it will be okay to go with the undertaker."
At this time, since Pei Jun was willing to say so, he also happened to borrow the slope to get off the donkey, and changed his face and said: "Someone accused Pei Guanren of colluding with Jin Ren and deliberately designed to trap the garrison of Benzhou, and Lord Zhizhou also had to order this official to come and interrogate people, if Pei Guanren can go to the Yamen to distinguish clearly, it would be better."
"What, say that I colluded with Jinren", Pei Jun was stunned when he heard this, and then couldn't help laughing out loud and said, "Joke, the people who died in Pei's hands are really hundreds, I have a deep enmity with Fangou, how can I collude with it inside and out, hey, what do he do with such innocent and dirty words, and he actually has to line up to send troops to take me, Lord Zhizhou is really ......"
"Well, I also understand the difficulties of the Yamen, since someone has reported it, it is natural to do some face-to-face work, then I will go with you, but don't embarrass my entourage", Pei Jun said and waved his hand to rebuke Pi Wan and Zhong Zhuang Ding, and turned back and instructed while walking out slowly, "You all go home first, and when I go to see Lord Zhizhou, I will go back to the house after explaining the explanation, and tell Mrs. not to worry, and take care of the young master."
Seeing this, Pi Wan hurriedly stepped forward and repeatedly dissuaded him, and even knelt down and grabbed Pei Jun's legs, Pei Jun only smiled and helped him up and said: "It's okay, I haven't colluded with Fangou, are you still afraid that you can't get any evidence out of thin air, if you really start with the officers and soldiers, it will be troublesome."
Pei Jun ignored Pi Wan's opposition at the moment, and followed Na Cheng Lang and his party into the city, and the rest of the people immediately dispersed, only Pi Wan stood in place for a long time, and then did not enter the city, and went outside the city alone.
Wei Qing witnessed the whole thing on the sidelines, and said to Liao Lingping: "There is a trick in this matter, Pei Guanren originally planned to plan and contact the garrison to lure the Jin army, but he was put on the reverse by the Jin people, which shows that the Jin people have already investigated his plan and have been prepared in advance, and now as soon as he comes back, he will be openly arrested by the government, I think the government must have pinched the evidence to do so, otherwise it would never be easy to do so in public."
Wei Qing and Liao Lingping discussed for a while, but they still couldn't figure it out, so they had to find an inn to settle down temporarily, and then Liao Lingping went to Pei's Mansion to inquire about the news, but Wei Qing went to the city gate to wait for Cao Lu and Li Rui, and waited for everyone to gather.
In the evening of the same day, Cao Lu finally escorted Li Rui back to Haozhou, Wei Qing quickly told the day in detail as soon as the two of them were introduced to the inn, Li Rui frowned and asked: "Then the government now has the official Pei official go home?"
Wei Qing shook his head and replied: "Sister Ping is waiting for news at Pei's house, she has no reply, I think she should not have been released when she comes to the government, otherwise she will not stay for no reason."
"This is not good", Li Rui said, "If the government just wants to make a superficial statement to plug the mouths of the public, it should not detain Pei Guanren for so long, it seems that Pei Guanren is only afraid of being more auspicious."
Before she finished speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open by the sound of "bang", only to see Liao Lingping rushing in in a hurry, and said with a panicked expression: "It's bad, Pei Guanren was imprisoned by the government, saying that he colluded with the Jin people, and the officials and soldiers had gone to Pei's house to take away all the people in the house, and they were also rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to search for incriminating evidence, if I hadn't gone fast, I am afraid that I would have been arrested indiscriminately."
"What", Wei Qing couldn't help but exclaim, "How is this good, I can trust that Pei Guanren will not collude with the Jin people, this must be a trick of the Jin people to plant blame."
Li Rui pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "The government is going to deal with Pei Guanren, and such a major matter cannot be decided in a moment, we still have time, the top priority is to find out what evidence the government has in its hands, and secondly, to find out the clues of the Jin people's planting from Zhuergen.
"Rui'er is right, I think it's better to stay in the city first, try to find out who reported Pei Guanren, and then find out the evidence of the Jin people's planting", Wei Qing thought for a moment and said, "And we still have to find someone, I always feel that something is wrong with him, and if he can't say it, it's the key to this matter."
Everyone asked in unison, "Who?"
"It's the scar-faced skin that often follows Pei Guanren", Wei Qing said categorically, "First, he is responsible for the communication between the two sides on weekdays, and secondly, his attitude is too intense during the day today, which is not a normal performance, I always feel that he vaguely seems to have guessed this result a long time ago, and I will find out when I find him."
