Cang Shangshu sternly said: "Ma Jianzhe, this is your one-sided remark, you say that they have done bad things, we have to believe that they have done bad things! What we have to do now is to take all these people who have been restored from animals to human beings to the yamen and interrogate them one by one. If they did something bad and were caught by you, you can reduce your guilt, otherwise, you will be miserable. ”

Tao Ziyun said firmly to Ma Jianzhe: "Don't shirk your responsibility, after all, this is a missing person case that you made." Let's take a trip to the yamen!"

"Okay, I'm not going to say goodbye to my family, I'm going to go with you. Ma Jianzhe finally had to bear the responsibility and went out with the officers and soldiers.

Those who had restored Kumoto from an animal to a human form, together with Ma Jianzhe, came to the yamen of the criminal department, but they were not yet imprisoned, but only lived in the yamen's room waiting for interrogation.

Because those who are missing are suspected of doing all kinds of bad things, they must be tried, and if they really commit a crime, they must be imprisoned, and those who have not committed a crime will be released after the trial.

If those people are really guilty, Ma Jianzhe's guilt will be reduced, but he will not be completely innocent, because it is not his duty to arrest those who are committing crimes and punish them.

After Tao Ziyun said goodbye to Cangshangshu and them, he sent Sang Benyuan back to Sang's silk shop, and he said to Sang Benyuan happily: "Fortunately, you are still in the capital, so you have turned those missing people back into people." ”

Sang replied indifferently: "Hehe, this is inevitable! The shop couldn't do business, so I had to stay here and help them get the shop back on track before leaving. ”

Tao Ziyun asked casually, "Then when will you return to your hometown?"

Sang Motohara smiled slyly: "Ma Jianzhe is my old enemy, I want to see what the final result will be when he gets involved in this case." I'll wait for that result to come back to my hometown!"

Tao Ziyun smiled knowingly: "Haha, the grudge between him and you has not been resolved, as an enemy for many years, it is normal for people to want to see what happened to him." ”

Sang Motohara was still a little worried: "I don't know how efficient these Beijing officials are? I hope I won't wait for them to come up with results." After all, I still want to go back to my hometown sooner. ”

Tao Ziyun analyzed. "I guess it won't be long." The future of this case is very clear!"

"It won't be long before that day comes. Kuwamoto said with relief.

This time, Tao Ziyun and Sang Motoyuan were both riding horses, idle. Unknowingly, he sent Kumoto to the Sang silk shop.

When Tao Ziyun returned to Tao Mansion. It was too late. If you go to the rain at this time and see that the rain is in the lost city, you will definitely be scolded. Moss Jade has a better temper, and immediately he knocked on the door of the room where Moss Jade was.

The next day. Cang Shangshu personally interrogated those suspects, and under Ma Jianzhe's testimony, the gang all admitted the bad things they had done, but they were not bad deeds, they were just sentenced to a few months in prison.

Ma Jianzhe asked Cang Shangshu to acquit him, and Cang Shangshu explained to him: "Your actions have made so many people disappear without a trace, and those people have been turned into animals by you, although they are still alive, acquaintances can't recognize them, if it weren't for the help of people like Sang Benyuan, they would all be alive and dead." Sentence you to three months' imprisonment like them. ”

Under Ma Jianzhe's pleading, Cang Shangshu was still unmoved, and announced his retirement as soon as he was shocked.

After going to court the next day, Cang Shangshu and Tao Ziyun walked out of the palace together. Cang Shangshu told Tao Ziyun about the trial of the case, and also mentioned another person: "Last night, Pu Tong came in to find me and asked me to change the verdict to Ma Jianzhe's innocence. The reason given by Pu Tongjin is that the case did not have a serious consequence, did not harm human life, and under Ma Jianzhe's evidence, those who did bad things were punished as they deserved, and said that it was a happy ending. ”

Tao Ziyun thought about it again and again, but still didn't think of his impression of Pu Tongjin: "Who is Pu Tongjin?

Cang Shangshu introduced Tao Ziyun and said: "He is the secretary of the country and is cautious, so you are not familiar with him." ”

"Everything, it's nonsense. If it weren't for Sang Benyuan restoring those animals to human form, those people would all be doomed, and there would be no ending!" Tao Ziyun didn't agree with Pu Tongjin's request at all, he asked Cang Shangshu, "Then did you agree to his request?"

Cang Shangshu embarrassedly told Tao Ziyun: "Alas, after all, because of Sang Benyuan's help, there were no adverse consequences. I replied to him, let me think about it, I'm still struggling. ”

Tao Ziyun gave Cang Shangshu a suggestion and said, "My opinion is that there is no need to agree to his request. will lock Ma Jianzhe up for a few months, anyway, if he can't be killed, he can also learn a lesson. ”

"Okay, don't let Ma Jianzhe go out, Pu Tong will go over there, and I'll try to explain it to him. "Cang Shangshu actually has to prepare to turn his face to others.

"He went to tell you last night, and I reckon he will definitely go tonight to find out the results of your consideration. Tonight, I will also go to your house to meet the secretary of the country. Tao Ziyun is ready to come uninvited.

"Haha, you are welcome to visit my house. Facing Pu Tongjin with you, my pressure is much lighter. Cang Shangshu said goodbye to Tao Ziyun and went to their respective yamen to handle official business.

That night, Tao Ziyun had dinner at his house, and then rode to Cangfu lightly.

In Cangfu, Cang Shangshu was still entertaining Pu Tongjin for dinner.

When Tao Ziyun saw Pu Tongjin, he didn't talk about Ma Jianzhe with him, but tried to find out about Wu Qizhong: "Master Pu, do you know Wu Qizhong in the south?"

Tao Ziyun's sudden question made Pu Tongjin stunned: "What do you mean by Wu Qizhong in the south?"

Tao Ziyun continued to say to Pu Tongjin: "That Wu Qizhong, relying on his acquaintances in Guozijian to help him, entered the Guozijian to study, and after that, he did not participate in the township examination and the meeting examination, so he entered the officialdom early. I thought, you probably know that, right?"

Pu Tongjin asked Tao Ziyun with an unhappy face: "What does Master Tao mean, is it to suspect that the matter in Wu Qizhong is related to me?"

Tao Ziyun calmly responded to Pu Tongjin: "In my opinion, according to Master Pu's behavior, it is very likely that the matter in Wu Qizhong is related to you." (To be continued......)
