Yin Wu saw that the knife had been shot, and he knew that the plan had been made, but in order to do something more like, he inevitably asked for a few words of forgiveness, shouted a few words, and was beaten a few times by the minions after the last one.

But after Qin Tong left happily with the treasure knife, although those who watched the excitement expressed sympathy for Yin Wuxian, they didn't dare to step forward to say anything, and they dispersed after a while, Yin Wuxian picked up one or two pieces of silver on the ground, and went straight to Baofu.

After he came to Baofu, he explained the whole story in detail, and after everyone listened to me, they all laughed and said: "In this way, this matter is done!" ”

After everyone laughed and laughed, let Gongsun Ce write a complaint, and the next morning, Yin Wuxian went to Kaifeng Mansion accompanied by Hualang and others, and the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion at this time was Ouyang Xiu.

Hua Lang admires Ouyang Xiu to the extreme, he knows Ouyang Xiu's poetry, and he also has a deep understanding of some reforms in the imperial court.

Early in the morning, Yin Wuxian sounded the shouting drum of Kaifeng Mansion, and after a while, several officials led them into the lobby, Ouyang Xiu sat tall in an official uniform, he was only in his thirties at this time, and he was very heroic.

After Ouyang Xiu listened to Yin Wu's testimony, he bowed his head slightly and said: "This Qin Tong's notoriety has long been heard by this mansion, but no one dares to sue him, now that you have come to sue, it is very good, this mansion can summon Qin Tong to come, if things are really as you said, then this mansion will not spare him." ”

After Ouyang Xiu finished speaking, he could order the officials to go and detain Qin Tong.

Not long after, Qin Tong came to the court with a knife, and after Ouyang Xiu told his infallible testimony, he asked, "Qin Tong, the truth is so, you used one or two silver to forcibly buy his treasure knife?" ”

After listening to Ouyang Xiu's words, Qin Tong suddenly knelt down and kowtowed: "Adult Mingjian, the villain is wronged, the villain bought him is not a treasure knife at all, it is clearly a rotten knife and a broken knife, I took this knife home to experiment, and as a result, I cut the copper knife roll, and the hair kept blowing, it was this kid who framed me, my lord." ”

After listening to Qin Tong's words, Ouyang Xiu frowned slightly, looked at Yin Wuxian and asked, "Yin Wuyi, but so?" ”

Yin Wuxian hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "My lord was wronged, it is clear that this Qin Tongqiang bought my treasure knife, and now I see the villain suing him, I am timid, so I said that the knife under is not good, if the adult does not believe it, the villain can try to cut the copper on the spot, if the copper is cut, the blow is not blowing, the villain is willing to accept the guilt." ”

Ouyang Xiu felt that what Yin Wuyi said was reasonable, so he nodded and said, "Allowed, come here, bring copper coins and hair." ”

After a while, the official took the copper coin and hair and put it in front of Yin Wuyi, and Yin Wuxian did it again in the public court according to where he did it in Bianhe yesterday, and the result was the same as yesterday's, and the copper coin was broken and his hair was broken.

Now that the facts are in front of him, no one can quibble, Qin Tong looked at the broken hair and copper coins on the ground, and didn't know what to say for a while, and at this time, Ouyang Xiu said angrily: "Qin Tong, do you still have something to say at this time?" ”

Now that the matter happened in front of Qin Tong, he didn't understand how this could happen at all, when he went home, he obviously kept blowing his hair and cutting copper coins, but why could he cut it off with a single cut in the public court today?

He felt the wind in his back, and he thought it was weird, but he couldn't say how weird it was.

Since he couldn't say it, Ouyang Xiu could naturally pronounce a sentence on Qin Tong, and Ouyang Xiu ordered the officials to beat Qin Tong fifty boards, and asked Qin Tong to return the one hundred taels of silver owed to Yin Wuyi.

Qin Tong had no choice but to do so.

But the matter is not over like this, the people of the capital saw that Qin Tong was interrogated today, and they came to see the excitement, and after seeing that Lord Yin of Kaifeng Mansion severely punished Qin Tong, they immediately rushed in and wanted to sue Qin Tong, so everyone said Qin Tong's crime in one word, Ouyang Xiu sat in the lobby, listened to an angry crown, and after being angry, he ordered the official to beat Qin Tong with another hundred boards, and then threw him into the prison, that Qin Tong suffered one hundred and fifty boards in one day, even if he didn't die, I am afraid he would become a cripple.

When the people saw Qin Tong suffer such retribution, they cheered one after another.

At this time, Hua Lang stepped forward and said: "Lord Ouyang, although Qin Tong is subdued now, there are still more than a hundred minions under him, and they are now leaderless, I'm afraid it's easy to make trouble!" ”

Ouyang Xiu thought about it, and it was right, so he ordered that the officials investigate those minions under Qin Tong, and punish those who usually have evil deeds, and if they are forced to become minions helplessly, let them go home and live a good life.

After the official received the order, those people cheered even more, and for a while, the entire capital was spreading the news that Ouyang Xiu was handling the case impartially.

After those people dispersed, Hua Lang and the others were also leaving, but at this time, Ouyang Xiu suddenly stopped Hua Lang and his party, and invited them to the inner office, and when they entered the inner office, Ouyang Xiu said: "Presumably this is Hua Lang Playboy, right?" ”

Hua Lang didn't expect Ouyang Xiu to say such a sentence, and he didn't know what to do for a while, so he had to nod and say, "Lord Ouyang is polite, it's Hua Lang down there." ”

Ouyang Xiuwei smiled and said, "I heard that the playboy is brilliant and is an expert in solving cases, today's play, I'm afraid it was directed by the playboy, right?" ”

When Hua Lang saw Ouyang Xiu say this, he knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "It's still Lord Ouyang who is powerful, you can see the clue at a glance, Lord Ouyang is right, this is indeed what we did, but this is also Qin Tong's own fault, we came to the capital, and we were very disgusted when we saw him doing nonsense, so we came up with this method to rectify him, Lord Ouyang is inconvenient for Kaifeng Mansion Yin to do, we are very convenient." ”

Ouyang Xiu listened to Hua Lang's words, and couldn't help but admire Hua Lang's wit and talent, and said: "Then Qin Tong I have long wanted to teach him a lesson, but no one dares to sue, today thanks to the blessing of the playboy, kill his prestige, and after that, my capital will be much quieter!" ”

Hua Lang repeatedly bowed his hand to show his modesty, and at this time, Ouyang Xiu suddenly said: "I have seen the talent of the playboy in handling the case today, if the playboy is free to do it another day, you can come and learn poetry with me, you also know that I love poetry very much!" ”

Hua Lang repeatedly said that he would definitely come, but after saying this, Hua Lang suddenly asked, "I don't know if I can let you see Qin Tong in the next prison?" ”
