Chapter Seventy-Six: Right and Wrong, Black and White

Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan hid in the restaurant, thinking that they could see more clearly from a high position when they went to the second floor to watch, so they and Zhao Shuhan went upstairs, and before they passed the corner of the stairs, they heard a slightly familiar voice from Cangsang upstairs: "This Dongcheng captain Chen Zhi has no martial arts ambition, and the patrol soldiers are like mice that stare at cats, they are really a group of inadequate waste ......"

Zhang Yubo thought to himself who was this person upstairs, and his voice sounded a little familiar? Slowed down with Zhao Shuhan, thinking about eavesdropping on other people's discussions about today's events.

"This person is just a small move, Jinchuan Prison Jiupin Prison, when the street breaks people's hands and feet, at this time against the Dongcheng Captain's men and horses, he dares to give a killing order, is it too arrogant, he is not afraid of offending people?" At this time, another clear and delicate female voice came down.

"He is not arrogant, how many people in Jiangning City can know Dongyang Juzi and Jinchuan Prison? I've been a shrunken turtle for most of my life, and if it weren't for the burden of MG, I would have wanted to live arrogantly and domineeringly. The old voice came again.

When Zhang Yubo heard this, he and Zhao Shuhan looked at each other and smiled.

The female voice really laughed too: "How can anyone compare himself to a turtle with a shrunken head? A few days ago, I was so angry that I blew my beard and glared, and I couldn't wait to screw off the head of this turtle son, how could I be so self-contained at this time? In the eyes of you people, human life is not worth a few pennies, and I don't think this farce will end easily, and those who have broken their hands and feet are not all from Dongshi......"

Zhang Yubo also guessed that there was someone behind the scenes of today's events, thinking that the people upstairs should be more distinct, he and Zhao Shuhan climbed the stairs to the second floor, an old man in brocade clothes who was white and fat, with a long beard under his chin and a slight frost white, was sitting at the table near the window at the staircase, looking out the window on the street and discussing the things downstairs with Chen Qingqing, a famous prostitute in Xiubailou who was sitting at the same table as him. Zhang Yubo saw that he was an acquaintance, and he saluted Zhao Shuhan in the past: "I don't know that Grandpa Guo is here, Zuo Sikou Zhang Yubo (Zhao Shuhan, director of the Jiangning Criminal Department) is polite here......"

Zhang Yubo, Chen/Yuanliang and other Dongyang officials naturally regarded Gu Wuchen as a faction, Chen Qingqing had never seen Zhao Shuhan, but when he heard his name and knew that he was good friends with Lin Xuan, he was also slightly stunned when he saw Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan coming upstairs, thinking that he didn't say anything good just now, and was a little embarrassed.

The old man in brocade sat there and smiled slightly, and said, "Lord Zhang and Director Zhao also have the leisure to come to the East Market to drink at this time, so you might as well sit down together." ”

"It's better to be respectful than to obey ......your fate" Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan were also inconvenient to refuse, and they didn't expect to meet the hereditary Mu Guogong Zeng Mingxin in the restaurant.

Although there are countless high-ranking officials and magnates in Jiangning City, there are only three hereditary dignitaries who are not demoted, this generation of Mu Guogong is cool and heroic by nature, but he does not run a business, the family business is far from being larger than the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, but the raid is one level higher, Zeng Mingxin was suave when he was a teenager, quite talented, and he was also chivalrous and willful, and he was somewhat restrained after middle age and could even be said to be famous, but recently because of Chen Qingqing, a famous prostitute in Xiubai Building, this Mu Guogong, whose hair has begun to frost white, has once again become the talk of tea and dinner in Jiangning City.

Unexpectedly, the Mu Guo Guild invited Chen Qingqing to come to the East Market to drink for fun, and besides, after listening to the discussion of Mu Guo's grandfather just now, they didn't seem to have any ill feelings towards Lin Lian, but they didn't take Chen Qingqing's words seriously, and the Mu Guo Mansion's entourage moved chairs, and Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan sat down at the table, thinking about the situation outside the window, and looked over. According to the inspector of the commander, a row of knights in front of the cavalry raised their guns and pointed straight to the front, and forced the men and horses of Dongcheng Lieutenant to retreat from the streets again and again to make way for the way, and the seventeen or eighteen ruffians who broke their hands and feet had already been tied up with ropes, and they were forced to stand up, even those who broke their legs had to stand up with each other, and if they hesitated, they would be beaten with sticks. The carriage that protected it also moved slowly, Zhou Pu sat in front of the carriage and led the horse, and Lin Jian was at the front of the carriage.

At this time, there were still people in front of the eaves downstairs talking loudly about the two flowery girls who were molesting Lin Lian's family and flirting with the ruffians, Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan heard it clearly upstairs, they had all seen Liu Yue'er, although Qian Xiaowu's wife Yun Niang was beautiful, but she couldn't be regarded as a big beauty, but she didn't know who the other beautiful girl with Liu Yue'er was?

Zhang Yubo suddenly thought of someone, kicked Zhao Shuhan lightly under the table, glanced at the carriage, Zhao Shuhan understood, and thought that if this gang of scoundrels was instructed to target Gu Wuchen's family, if this matter was easily resolved, then Gu Wuchen would really be bullied like dough; Lin Lian's ruthlessness on the street is probably also the accumulation of some resentment after the tragedy of the homeless people.

"The day before yesterday, I just bought Director Zhao's "Prison Book" from Zhengye Hall, and I wanted to have the opportunity to ask for advice in person, but I didn't expect to meet ...... here," Mu Guogong Zeng Mingxin said.

"The Book of Prison" has been engraved and delivered by Zhengyetang, Lin Jian and Zhao Shuhan put twenty books on sale and purchase in Zhengyetang bookstore, Zhao Shuhan didn't expect Mu Guo Guild to buy it, he came back to his senses and stood up and saluted Zeng Mingxin, and said: "Grandpa Guo has been raised, and his meager remarks are embarrassing to enter the eyes of Grandpa Guo......

"Hmm, Director Zhao is really modest, he has lived most of his life, do you need to praise people?" Zeng Mingxin said with a smile, let Zhao Shuhan sit and talk, don't be too restrained, "I heard that Director Zhao is going to hold a lecture on the prison book in the Jiyun Bamboo Hall at the mouth of the Jinchuan River on a certain day, and the time is set, so it is convenient to tell the old man?" ”

"It's going to be the right place." Zhao Shuhan only listened to the guys there talk about the opening of the scriptures and lectures when Grandpa Zeng Guo was buying books in the main hall, and the so-called Jiyun Bamboo Hall was still under construction, and Zhao Shuhan didn't know when it would be built, but his mouth was perfunctory.

Zhao Shuhan and Zhang Yubo were thinking about how today's events would end, so they naturally were not in the mood to talk about prison books with Mu Guogong in the restaurant. Lin Jian and the cavalry of the Inspector Department were about to leave the street corner, although the soldiers and horses of Dongcheng Lieutenant did not dare to intercept them, they refused to stop there, and dragged their feet away, Zhao Shuhan and Zhang Yubo resigned and left with Mu Guo.

After going downstairs, Zhang Yubo felt that he was still wearing an official robe and was a little inappropriate in the past, so he said to Zhao Shuhan: "Let's find a restaurant to drink and wait for the news, everyone is escorted to the inspection department, can we be afraid of what kind of storm they will set off?" ”

Zhao Shuhan thinks so.

************

In the end, Lin Jian requisitioned four carts of oxen on the street and escorted seventeen ruffians who had broken their hands and feet to the Inspectorate as if they were carrying garbage.

Mrs. Gu, Gu Siyuan, Yang Shi and others received the news and were already waiting in the courtyard of the Inspectorate, Lin Jian sent Gu Junxun to the other courtyard to be taken care of by Mrs. Gu and others, and he asked Zhou Pu and the guards to send Liu Yue'er back to Jiyunju to avoid her meeting with the Gu family and causing Mrs. Gu's unhappiness.

Although the prison in the city is close to the left, there is also a prison cell in the yamen of the inspection department, although it is not big, but it is enough to hold a hundred and ten people, Yang Pu took people to put these ruffians in the prison room, and Lin Jian went to see Gu Wuchen first.

Gu Wuchen was already standing under the eaves of the porch and waiting, and Ma Chao, who came back first to tell him about it, stood behind Gu Wuchen, and the other people who were listening to the errand in the courtyard today were all sent away.

"Kaoru Niang is fine, right?" Gu Wuchen asked, it was inconvenient for him to go directly to the other courtyard to visit his daughter, for fear that he would make up some rumors in the eyes of those who cared about it.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I was a little frightened, and Madame took Miss back......" Lin Jian asked again, "What about Lord Jia and the others?" "When he passed by the side hall where Jia Pengyu was acting for official business just now, he couldn't see anyone there, and he obviously saw Jia Pengyu in the yamen at noon.

"I just went to Shangyuan County, and I will go to Pingjiang Mansion again to check, and I am in a hurry." Gu Wuchen said.

Leaving Jiangning to inspect the following prefectures and counties, there is no ten days and half a month and he can't come back, Lin Lian thought to himself that Jia Pengyu should know some inside information to avoid being involved, so he simply left Jiangning and handed over the entire inspection department to Gu Wuchen to be the master, he really wanted to be a tumbler in the officialdom.

"What should I do now," Lin Jian asked, "I'm afraid that someone from Jiangning Mansion will come to ask for someone?" "They can ignore Dongcheng Wei and forcibly bring people back, after all, there is no problem to solve, Dongcheng Wei Chen Zhi is a soft egg, it does not mean that Yin Wang Xueshan of Jiangning Mansion will swallow his anger after knowing this.

"It's important to get the transcript first, Ma Chao, you ......go over in person," Gu Wuchen said in a suppressed voice.

"Lin Tie, Lin Tie, where are you villain who tells the truth? Come out for me! At this moment, he heard Gu Siyuan shouting loudly in the middle of the courtyard outside, Lin Jian didn't know what medicine Gu Siyuan had taken wrong, and looked at the Yuemen in amazement, and saw Gu Siyuan rushing in angrily, roaring loudly at himself, "You villain, you have a grudge against Wang Shaojun, but you have planted today's incident on Wang Shaojun's head, and you want to use a knife to kill people to pull my Gu family into your personal grudges, what are your intentions?" ”

"What contradiction do I have with Wang Xueshan's son?" Lin Jian looked at Gu Siyuan who rushed in and lost his temper with a gloomy face.

"Didn't you just take a fancy to that little bitch in Baiyuan and wanted to redeem herself? Fan Zhimei has already done the main job of selling that little bitch to Wang Shaojun as a concubine, what qualifications do you have to compete with Wang Shaojun for beauty? Jun Xun is not fortunate to be bullied, Wang Shaojun and my Gu family have no grudges and no hatred, and invited me to meet in the domain last night, why do you want to harm Jun Xun? It's not that you villain is playing right and wrong, and you want to use this matter to trap my Gu family and the Wang family as enemies......" Gu Siyuan said angrily.

"Smack!" Without Gu Siyuan finishing speaking, Gu Wuchen slapped him in the face, and shouted in a deep voice: "You want to shout so that everyone in the entire yamen knows?" ”

Gu Siyuan never thought that his father would give him a slap without asking, and he covered his face and argued: "Obviously, it is Lin Lian, this villain, who is playing right and wrong, I know that Wang Shaojun is a human being, and it will never be unfavorable to Jun Xun......"

Gu Wuchen couldn't wait to kick his son to death, how stupid did Lin Jian have to be to lie about this? Besides, Yang Pu and Ma Chao's eyes are not blind, and Dongcheng Wei's men and horses have been following him until the front street of the Inspector Si before leaving, is it just for these ruffians in the market? Gu Wuchen exhaled lightly, thinking to himself: No matter how angry he is, he is his own son after all, and he also complains that he has not taught him well for ten years, and said to Ma Chao: "You take this beast to the prison to have some knowledge, don't wait for others to clean up the Gu family, he still has to call friends with others to be happy." ”

The Hekou Displaced People's Massacre is suspected of targeting Gu Wuchen, but after all, it is an inconsequential displaced person who died, Gu Wuchen can still compromise with Jiangning Mansion, today's incident is directly aimed at his family, how can he easily stop it?

Lin Jian stood there silently, he didn't know how Gu Siyuan and Wang Chao knew about his intimate relationship with Xiaoman, maybe it was when he visited Baiyuan before the New Year's Festival and met Wang Chao, Yuan Jinsheng and others to show them something, maybe Su Mei had already told the clan about Xiaoman's redemption, but he didn't expect Wang Chao to take the first step to buy Xiaoman as a concubine.
