Chapter 222: Another Twist and Turn
The villain who forced Liang to become a prostitute is like Li Su.
With a bullying face, a condescending smile, and the intimidation and crushing of the power, the head of the Feng family finally forced the head of the Feng family to accept his fate and draw a charge on the withdrawal letter with tears in his eyes.
The miserable appearance could not arouse any sympathy from Li Su.
This is a collision of values, the lives of lowly people are not as good as cattle and horses, this is a recognized fact, so the Feng family can take away their own slaves, and the laws of the Tang Dynasty can't do anything to him, at best, he will be fined a few hundred dollars.
Li Su can't change the status quo, and so far, he is still on the edge of the center of power in the Tang Dynasty, and he never dares to take a step inside, although he can easily do it with his ability.
Without power, you can only accept the rules of the game, so the life of a lowly person is still lower than that of an animal, however, Li Su's eyes saw this, and his guards were also involved in this matter, and now they are squatting in the prison preparing to go to the execution ground, so Li Su can no longer sit idly by.
What about bullying? In order to protect Zheng Xiaolou's life, and to seek justice for the miserable maid, the Feng family can only become the object of crushing.
Holding the withdrawal letter with the signed signature, Li Su smiled brighter than the sun.
"How good, everyone is happy, if Uncle Feng is a little more generous, he should serve out the wine at this time, let's toast to each other and celebrate today's win-win situation......"
The Feng family master's face was gloomy and he hung his head and was silent.
Li Su sighed in disappointment, and saw that the head of the family had no intention of bringing him a good wine......
Not atmospheric.
**********************************************************
After all, the news of Gao Yang's funeral of the Feng family was spread.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and Gao Yang didn't plan to hide his head and shrink his tail when he bullied people, he hit the door brightly, and walked away after bullying people, and he did it extremely chic.
The glorious deeds were first spread to the market of Chang'an City, and the boring idlers used it as a conversation after tea and dinner, and said with a smile that Gao Yang led the guards to smash the Feng family's sassy and heroic posture, and groups of idlers got together, you guess, he guessed, the situation of the barbarian princess oppressing the landlord was infinitely restored, as if she had seen it with her own eyes, and the details before and after were compared, and it was inseparable from the facts.
The people's ability to dig up gossip is never small, and it is impossible for Her Royal Highness the princess to smash the Feng family for no reason, there must be a reason for it.
It is not a secret that the Feng family's son tortured and killed the maid, and as soon as someone casually inquired, the cause and effect of the whole incident surfaced.
The poor maid died innocently and tragically, and the righteous knight was imprisoned for revenge, and Princess Gaoyang was angry......
Chang'an City is full of gossip about the princess.
In the end, the gossip finally and inevitably reached the East Palace.
In the main hall of the East Palace, the crown prince Li Chengqian sat straight on the couch, every action and every angle seemed to have been measured by a ruler, and the notes on the table were piled up, all of which were sent by Li Shimin of the Taiji Palace to the palace people, and every day Li Shimin would send them to the East Palace after Li Shimin had finished processing.
Father and son are taught and cultivated the ability to govern the country in this way, so Li Chengqian is very busy, a bunch of familiar reading and then writing experience, almost until dark, the only entertainment can only be in the dormitory to summon a few maiko and kabuki to come over to sing and dance to help the wine, and can only do it secretly, because Li Shimin sent to the East Palace, the prince's left concubine Yu Zhining, Du Zhenglun, and the prince of the country, Kong Yingda and others are all honest and good ministers, and these people can't mix sand in their eyes. He hated the extravagant feasting, singing, dancing, and fun-seeking behavior in the East Palace.
As long as they saw the prince drinking and feasting, these ministers scolded them once they saw them, and without saying a word, they directly stabbed Li Shimin, in exchange for more heavyweight scolding.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was kind-hearted, he felt that he didn't look like the prince, like a grandson......
In the afternoon, Li Chengqian sat upright on the square couch, holding a book of music in one hand, a dragon and snake in the other, and a beautiful flying white body in the other hand meandered under the pen.
A fair-looking eunuch quietly walked into the main hall, this person's surname is Huang, his name is Nu'er, Li Chengqian's newly promoted East Palace is to make up for the lack of Juan who was killed with a rod in the last East Market incident.
"East Palace to give things" is a very wonderful official position, this official position belongs to the internal officials, only eunuchs can be, it is said to be the prince's personal chamberlain, on weekdays to serve tea and water, clean the palace, but must always pay attention to every sentence of His Royal Highness the prince seems to be inadvertently said words, and inadvertently revealed expressions, these words and expressions, often hidden in the great opportunity, as long as eight times out of ten times to grasp the prince's mind, do something that makes the prince happy, it means to soar, in a few years, is the identity of a high-ranking official in the inner palace...... Continue to serve tea and water.
As if under some kind of curse, the official position of "giving things in the East Palace" is not a good person.
Huang Nuer is obviously not a good person either.
After entering the hall, Huang Nuer saw that Li Chengqian was concentrating on writing, so he held his breath and stood quietly aside, until the pen in Li Chengqian's hand completed the last hook, and then put the pen on the jasper pen stand, Huang Nuer stepped forward gently.
"What?" Li Chengqian was a little tired.
"There are rumors in Chang'an, which are related to Princess Gaoyang."
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows: "Say." ”
"A household in Beilongzhuang, Jingyang County, hosted a funeral, and Her Royal Highness Princess Gaoyang instructed the guards to make a big funeral and beat the landlord angrily ......"
Li Chengqian glared at him dissatisfied: "That's it?" ”
It's too common, it's common for the children of the heavenly family or the powerful to oppress landlords or businessmen, such as Cheng Chumo, the little grandfather of the Lu Guogong Mansion, who is uncomfortable not smashing a shop every few days, and even the merchants in the East Market are not used to it, Gao Yanggui is a princess, what is it to bully the landlord?
Seeing that Li Chengqian was dissatisfied, Huang Nuer hurriedly stepped forward to tell the cause and effect of the incident.
Li Chengqian didn't say anything for a long time after listening to this, with an unpredictable look on his face.
"The martial artist in prison...... Is it really Li Su's guard? Li Chengqian suddenly asked.
"Yes."
Li Chengqian smiled: "It's a little interesting...... What kind of evil did Li Su commit, and why did he have anything to do with him inside and outside Chang'an City? ”
Huang Nu'er glanced at Li Chengqian's face, and said with a smile: "The slave maid saw that His Highness had worked hard to review the performance, and said some gossip to change His Highness's mind, and just said it." ”
Li Chengqian smiled: "It's rare that you have a heart, but this is not gossip......
The smile flickered, and a grim frost appeared on Li Chengqian's face: "But the death of a cheap maid has become a grievance, and it is reasonable to kill someone else's son, what is the reason!" ”
Huang Nu'er can be in the East Palace to do things, her eyesight is extraordinary, she reacted immediately, and nodded busily: "What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is very true, and the slave knows what to do." ”
After speaking, Huang Nu'er hunched her waist and retreated carefully.
Li Chengqian was still sitting in the hall, but he couldn't read a word of the music in front of him, raised his head and looked at the gray sky outside the hall, with a thoughtful expression.
"Gao Yang, this girl, why did she get involved with Li Su?"
************************************************************
With the participation of the prince of the East Palace, a simple matter has become complicated and unpredictable.
Li Su didn't know about what happened in Chang'an City, so far, Li Su didn't think this matter was complicated, as soon as he followed his plan step by step, it only took two steps to keep Zheng Xiaolou, the first is to use Gao Yang as a gunman, let her go to scare the Feng family first, with Gao Yang's seemingly upright but strict but lack of heart, she will definitely show her identity after the fight, and the princess of the heavenly family will not do things to hide her head and shrink her tail.
revealed his identity, scared the Feng family fiercely, and then Li Su went out again, using Gao Yang's residual power to intimidate a few more words, and forced the Feng family to sign a letter of withdrawal, and the whole thing ended perfectly.
From the current point of view, everything is in his plan, and it is exactly the same as what he designed.
Therefore, the expression on Li Su's face when he rode to Jingyang County was still very relaxed and proud, because he felt that the whole thing was in his own hands and did not exceed expectations.
Riding a horse to Jingyang County, the official in front of the county yamen suffered a loss, and did not dare to stop Li Su anymore, this time Li Su met Zhou County Order very smoothly.
Zhou Xianling's expression looked strange, not as natural as the last time they met, kneeling on the couch and swaying his shoulders left and right, as if he had taken medicine.
Li Su was very puzzled, this expression, this sitting posture, not to mention the loss of official etiquette, ordinary people would not move like lice......
Li Su observed him carefully for a while, and then made a very firm conclusion.
"You've done something I'm sorry for!"
This is not a question, but an affirmation.
Zhou Xianling was taken aback: "How can you see it?" ”
Li Su was also taken aback: "You really did something sorry for me?" ”
"Yes......" Zhou Xianling no longer hid his guilty expression, and admitted it very happily.
Li Suleng was stunned for a moment, and then became furious: "You tricked my father into buying land again?" ”
Zhou Xianling also froze for a moment, and then shook his head: "No." ”
"You cheated my family out of money?"
The parents of a county are so suspicious of their personality......
“…… Neither is it. Zhou Xianling suddenly stopped feeling guilty, and his face darkened faintly.
Li Su breathed a sigh of relief and said with a relieved smile: "As long as you don't cheat me out of money, it's easy to say anything...... Don't gossip for now, wait for you to talk about what you've done to be sorry for me, and get down to business now. ”
As he spoke, Li Su took out the letter of withdrawal signed by the Feng family from his arms and handed it to Zhou County.
"It's a misunderstanding to lock Zheng Xiaolou, yesterday I have asked the bitter master Feng family, after careful recollection, Uncle Feng found that his son was not killed by him, but committed suicide, well, Zheng Xiaolou was wronged, congratulations......" Li Su said with a relieved smile at the end.
Zhou Xianling's face was even more ugly, he felt that his IQ had been insulted, and it was a teenager who insulted him.
"Li Xianzi...... Li Xianzi don't make trouble! When the Feng family's son died, his hands and feet were cut off by a blade, is this the result of suicide? ”
Zhou Xianling guessed correctly, Li Su really came to insult him today, and made up his mind to insult him more than once.
"It's easy to explain that the son of the Feng family is naughty, and he even commits suicide very naughtily, he dug a pit in the ground, put a few knives in the pit, and then closed his eyes and jumped in sideways, click, all the broken ones are broken...... Li Su looked at Zhou County's black face, and commented in a very doting tone: "...... The Feng family's son is really naughty. ”
Zhou County Ling is going crazy, what the hell is saying, my parents in a county look like idiots?
"Li Xianzi...... Xia Guan thinks that you are the right person to be naughty, don't make trouble, okay? Zhou County's tone revealed deep powerlessness.
Saying that, Zhou Xianling picked up the withdrawal letter in front of him and glanced at it quickly, but his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and finally sighed deeply.
"It's full of nonsense again, Li Xianzi's heart to save the guards of your mansion, the lower officials can understand it, but this so-called letter of withdrawal is ...... Are you writing with a little sincerity? How can a man with broken hands and feet believe that he committed suicide? Every year in our county, the case files must be sent to the Criminal Department for review, how can you send this thing to the subordinate officials? ”
"Release the people first, I will spend some time in the evening to write you a letter of withdrawal seriously, you are here, you can't let the county run for nothing, I am here to pick up people."
Zhou Xianling's face suddenly became very complicated again, and he shook his head and said, "No......"
Li Su frowned: "The people don't raise it, the officials don't investigate, this is the foundation of governing the county, Zhou County Order won't understand, right?" Now that the bitter master has withdrawn, this matter should only have never happened, could it be that Zhou County's order intends to have another twist and turn? ”
Zhou Xianling smiled bitterly: "There is a murder case under the rule, no matter whether the people raise it or not, the official will be investigated, and the lower official will not care whether this withdrawal letter is useful or not, even if the lower official is willing not to investigate the case, I am afraid that you and I will not be able to do it......"
Li Su's face was gloomy: "What happened?" ”
Zhou County Ling sighed: "An hour ago, the county government came to the officials of the Criminal Department and took over the case of the murder of the Feng family's son, not only did they take away the evidence of the case, but the criminal Zheng Xiaolou was also escorted into Chang'an City by the officials of the Criminal Department. At this moment, I am afraid that he is already locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department. ”
Li Su's face suddenly became very ugly: "It's only been a few days since this case happened, why did the Criminal Department know the news so quickly?" Besides, before the autumn review is due, the criminal department should not interfere in the local criminal case, they are obviously breaking the rules by doing so! ”
Zhou Xianling sighed: "It's a broken rule, but it's ...... What can the lower officials do? Li Xianzi, what can you do? ”
Li Su was speechless, looked at Zhou Xianling with a gloomy expression, and was silent for a long time.
Zhou County Ling seemed to know what Li Su was thinking, and hurriedly shook his head: "Xia Guan swore to the sky, he never reported to the Criminal Department, it was just an ordinary murder case, not to the point of alarming the Criminal Department, and Xia Guan is not such an unruly person." ”
Li Su's heart sank in vain, and he suddenly felt bitter.
The Criminal Department was inexplicably involved, and this matter was completely out of his control. R1152
