After Wu Gang's persuasion for a night, Wu Youjin and his wife, as well as their daughter-in-law Xie Miaoying, did not know that even if Wu Lishan accidentally fell to death Wu Zheng's grandmother, it would be a felony to be sentenced to the army.

What's more, Wu Zheng is currently only studying politics in Linshan Mansion, and criminal law matters such as adjudicating cases are decided by the government government, and the final decision is made by the government Yin. Take 10,000 steps back, even if Wu Zheng has the intention to exonerate Wu Lishan, but this time it is the Bafu Patrol who is the third grade, where is Wu Zheng to have the final say.

Of course, Wu Gang would not tell the fact that Wu Zheng was now acting as the governor of Linshan Mansion.

So after hearing this, Wu Youjin and his wife also knew that they couldn't just pray for Wu Zheng, but if they didn't pray for Wu Zheng, they really couldn't think of any other way to save their son. After returning home, it was still her daughter-in-law Xie Miaoying who paid a seemingly good attention.

"Dad, mother, I see that he will be escorted to Linshan Mansion tomorrow. When the time comes, the mountains and rivers are far away, and even if you want to take a look, you can't even take a look. So I wanted to go back to my parents' house overnight and beg Uncle Luo Xudong. ”

After being reminded by her daughter-in-law Xie Miaoying, Wu Youjin and his wife also felt reasonable. After all, Luo Xudong has a life-saving grace for Wu Zheng, if he can invite Luo Xudong to intercede for his son, it may really work.

So Wu Youjin did not let his daughter-in-law Xie Miaoying go over the mountains and mountains to her parents' house in the dark, but personally carried a lantern and ran to Xiangshui Bay thirty or forty miles away in the middle of the night. Eagerly knocked on the door of the in-laws' house, and after explaining the intention in a few words, the in-laws were also anxious for their daughter and son-in-law, so they hurriedly led Wu Youjin to Luo Xudong's son-in-law Jin Liang's house.

When he got up early in the morning, Wu Zheng found that his uncle Ning Yunju didn't seem to have the intention of leaving immediately, so he couldn't help asking:

"When will the Inspector leave to return to Linshan Mansion?"

"I'm fine, don't you have anything to do here?"

As long as there is no one else in front of him, Ning Yunju has always been commensurate with you and me.

"Students do have a lot of work to do. ”

"Are you going to report on the life-saving grace of the year?"

Wu Zheng looked at his uncle Ning Yunju and grinned. Knowing his past experience, my uncle must have inquired clearly. So I stopped being pretentious and simply nodded.

It's just that after breakfast for a while, without waiting for Wu Zheng to leave, the figure of Luo Xudong of Luoguo in Houpo Village appeared at the door of the small courtyard. Also with him were Wu Youjin and Luo Xudong's son-in-law Jin Liang.

You don't have to ask. It must be Luo Xudong who Wu Youjin went to invite overnight in order to intercede for his son Wu Lishan.

Wu Zheng hurriedly walked two steps to the door, stretched out his hand to hold Luo Xudong's hand, and said affectionately while carefully looking at the life-saving benefactor who had aged a lot over the past five years:

"Grandpa came overnight, right? I was going to visit him. ”

Seeing Wu Zheng again, who was sensible back then, the corners of Luo Xudong's eyes instantly moistened. I couldn't imagine that thin boy would come out like this.

"Zheng'er is out, it's not too much for grandpa to come to see you. ”

Hurriedly put Luo Xudong into the courtyard, and turned around to greet Luo Xudong's son-in-law Jin Liang. I didn't forget to say hello to Wu Youjin.

Seeing this, Ning Yunju went to the Wu family ancestral hall under the pretext of going to the ancestral hall of the Wu family, knowing that it was inconvenient for Wu Zheng to deal with Wu Lishan's affairs if he stayed.

As soon as Luo Xudong entered the house and sat down, Xie Miaoying led her father, Xie Linzhang, into the small courtyard. After Wu Youjin got the news, he was also worried about his daughter and son-in-law, so Xie Linzhang accompanied Luo Xudong and his son-in-law Jin Liang to Wujiabao. It's just that he didn't follow Luo Xudong and Wu Youjin to see Wu Zheng together, but reported to his daughter first.

simply drove out all the servants who served in the courtyard, Xie Miaoying took over the matter of boiling water and making tea, and Wu Zheng accompanied Luo Xudong. As well as Xie Linzhang, Wu Youjin. Jin Liang and the four of them talked in the room.

First of all, he explained why he didn't say goodbye on the night of August 15 of that year, and didn't want Luo Xudong to inquire about it afterwards.

"Later, the news spread a long time ago, and it was the people here and the people of Liulimburg who wanted to kill you, so you had to flee, and no one blames you. ”

Luo Xudong's words couldn't help but remind Wu Zheng of Mr. Zhen Qingyi. Now that everyone knows the truth of the matter, when they met unexpectedly on the streets of Suncheonseong, Mr. Zhen Qingyi's attitude had nothing to do with him saying goodbye without saying goodbye.

"Grandpa, I wonder if Mr. Zhen knows about this?"

"Why don't you know, we sat down together afterwards and talked about it. Mr. Zhen has been sighing that your life is suffering. Just a short time later. Mr. Zhen's family went to Shuntian City to join Qinglian's second uncle Zhen Qingshen. ”

After a few words of gossip, I asked Luo Xudong how he had been doing over the years, how his health was, etc., and finally turned to the topic.

"Zheng'er, grandpa's purpose for coming this time ....... ”

"Grandpa, I know that I originally planned to go to see my grandfather in the morning, and I will leave for Linshan Mansion in the afternoon. Since Grandpa has come all the way and Uncle Xie is here, then I'll make it clear. ”

knew that Wu Zheng's following words were directly related to Wu Lishan's life and death, so everyone waited with bated breath.

"According to the law of the current dynasty, the lightest sentence for death caused by a mistake is to send 3,000 li, and you will not be allowed to return to your hometown without an amnesty from the imperial court within 30 years. ”

Wu Zheng paused at this point before continuing:

"First of all, when he fled for his life, he received the grace of Uncle Xie's meal, and now his grandfather personally came to intercede for Wu Lishan. As a bitter master, even if I have the heart to exonerate him, I must ask for the permission of Lord Ning, the governor of the Eight Mansions.

Last night, because the sister of the Xie family begged repeatedly, I also asked Lord Ning. Listening to Lord Ning's tone, there seemed to be a compromise method that could offset Wu Lishan's crime of confiscating the army. As for what the method is, we must wait until we arrive at Linshan Mansion and the patrol will not be known until the Lord ascends to the hall. ”

Wu Zheng can only say this, if he says it again, it will not be in line with his current identity.

"Do you have to go to the government office?"

As soon as Wu Youjin's words fell, he attracted a scolding from his in-law Xie Linzhang.

"How can the in-laws ask such a thing? The big and small are all homicide cases, and Lord Wu has already said it clearly enough. Don't say it's a homicide case, even if it's a petty theft, once it alarms the government, don't you have to go through the court to hear the trial?"

Wu Youjin, who has always been honest, also knew that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly lowered his head.

"Grandpa, originally I was going to see my grandfather in the morning, if grandpa is willing, he will come with me to Linshan City for a while. Now that grandpa is here, you might as well go back and go together. ”

Wu Zheng's words were somewhat surprised when he heard Luo Xudong's ears, knowing that Wu Zheng wanted to repay the life-saving grace of the year, but Luo Xudong was nearly sixty after all, so he naturally didn't want to go to Linshan Mansion so far away. Just didn't wait for him to refuse, but Xie Linzhang spoke first.

"Brother Luo, it is impossible for a family like you and me to have such an opportunity in a lifetime. Since Lord Wu has this intention, why don't Brother Luo go and see the world?"

Wu Zheng saw that Xie Miaoying's father Xie Linzhang was obviously more open than Wu Youjin and Luo Xudong. Since Wu Lishan is bound to be escorted to Linshan Mansion, the Wu family can't help but go with someone to take care of it. If Luo Xudong is moved, isn't it equivalent to having a big backer who can have a relationship with him in Linshan Mansion? )
