In the early morning of the next day, the eldest grandson Geng sent the affidavit of the case of escaping from prison last night, and after Lin Jian signed it, he sent it to the prosecutor to discuss the punishment for the record, and he delayed until noon at the mouth of the river before leaving for the city, so that Liu Yue'er also entered the city with him. Liu Yue'er has lived outside the city for more than a month, although there are usually things to buy that can be entrusted to other people who go into the city to do business, but there are always some inconveniences to entrust other people's private items to buy, and then stuffy in the estuary thatched cottage all day long, it will be annoyed for a long time, and occasionally need to go into the city to change the mood.

After entering the city, Lin Jian first went to the "Pier" according to the Inspectorate Division, and invited his colleagues to the restaurant at noon to contact his feelings, so that Liu Yue'er would go to the East Market to hang out first. Although the security in the city, especially in the places where the rich and powerful live and where the yamen are concentrated, is much better than that outside the city, it is inevitable that there will be market maniacs. Lin Jian was only a prison official from the Jiupin Division at this time, and after entering the city, he still needed to be a low-key person, and he only took Zhou Pu as a retinue with him when he went to the Yamen of the Inspectorate Division.

The news of escaping from prison last night has spread in the Inspectorate Division, and Lin Jian has just arrived at the Inspectorate Department to pay homage to the top boss Xiao Xuanchou, but he intercepted Yang Pu, and Gu Wuchen asked him to go over immediately.

"I asked Yang Shi to come into the city early in the morning, has Uncle Yang ever met him?" Lin Jian also wants to have a good relationship with Yang Pu in private, and he will not be commensurate with his official position coldly, although Yang Pu is said to be a servant of the Gu family, but he follows Gu Wuchen from birth to death, even Gu Siyuan dares to take the posture of a young master in Yang Pu will teach Gu Wuchen a lesson, and Lin Jian will naturally not know what to do.

"Yes, his mother left him in the house, and even the business was delayed...... Yang Pu said. He also talked to his son for a while in the early morning, before clearing the prison, he knew in his heart that Yang Shi had a prejudice against Lin Bin, so he was worried that Yang Shi would have a conflict with Lin Tie after he arrived on the island and give Lin Tie a chance to repair it, but when Yang Shi came back this time, his attitude was completely different from before, and even when Gu Siyuan showed a disdainful look for Lin Tie, Yang Shi's attitude at that time became obviously cold. Yang Pu was still a little worried, Lin Lian's light blooming in this short period of time was too dazzling, so that people felt dazzling, but Gu Wuchen trusted and relied on Lin Lian more, and also connived at Lin Lian's use of Jiyun Society for personal gain. Yang Pu thought to himself that maybe he was unfounded, no matter how strong and ambitious Lin Jian was, he was just a civil official from the ninth rank who was born in a child, how could he hinder the master?

Lin Lian didn't know what Yang Pu was thinking, so he followed him to see Gu Wuchen first, walked into the hall where Gu Wuchen was acting for business, and saw that his immediate boss Xiao Xuanchou was also there, only to know that Gu Wuchen was looking for him on business, and Shi Li, who also obeyed the rules, asked: "The two adults are called, what do you want to order?" ”

"Are all the affidavits you sent earlier about escaping prison true?" Gu Wuchen asked Lin Jian to move a chair to sit in front of his desk.

"Don't dare to deceive the two adults." Lin Jian said.

"That's good," Gu Wuchen handed the affidavit to Xiao Xuanchou, and said, "Please work hard to verify the situation and then ......give it to Master Jia."

"Lord Gu is cautious, if others had already written about such a matter of enlightenment...... Xiao Xuanchou said.

"It's better to be cautious." Gu Wuchen said with a smile.

Lin Jian heard that Gu Wuchen asked Xiao Xuanchou to personally go to Prison Island to verify the escape from prison last night, and hurriedly said, "When will Lord Xiao get up, and I will go back with you?" ”

"It's rare for you to go to the city, it's okay," Gu Wuchen said with a smile, "lest you go back and do anything for me, Xiao Yi is over, and there is a secretary on the island to state the case......"

Xiao Xuanchou withdrew, and Gu Wuchen said: "You have done a very good job in this matter, wait for Xiao Xuanchou to verify and return to block other people's mouths, and submit a document to the Criminal Department for merit according to the Prosecutor's Department; Looking at the attitude of the Criminal Department, I will send a book to Tang Gong and Zhang Xiang to see if I can make the Metropolitan Procuratorate hear about the incident and enter the Imperial Review......"

"I'm afraid that there will inevitably be people who slander this side and it's just a woman's benevolence......" Lin Jian didn't expect Gu Wuchen to attach so much importance to this matter, and he was a little apprehensive when he heard him say that it was possible to enter the imperial court and play the emperor.

"When Gaozu set up the iron book to establish the criminal law, he set the system of 'compassionate punishment and compassion for prisoners', and 'escaping from prison in order to increase the sentence' is still a matter of virtue, and the holy precepts of Gaozu are inevitable, but someone dares to say it clearly?" Gu Wuchen was very clear about the pattern of the official article, and said comforting Lin Lian.

Lin Jian sighed slightly in his heart, at this time, there is bad news everywhere, maybe this kind of trivial matter is needed to whitewash the peace, this matter is also of great benefit to Gu Wuchen, once this matter can be entered into the imperial review, it is equivalent to paving the first step for the discussion of re-mentioning the prison city in the center, and according to the side of the Inspectorate, it will also invite credit.

Seeing that Gu Wuchen had made up his mind here, Lin Jian didn't have anything else to say, only said: "It's all the work of adult supervision, and Xiao Jie is also well guided, and Prison Island has the current achievements...... "According to the rules, if you really want to ask for credit, it is also according to the name of the inspector and the deputy envoy of the inspector, and the name of the inspector is in front, everything here has just started, and Lin Jian is afraid that if the merit is too obvious, it will outweigh the loss if he moves elsewhere, of course, this possibility is also low, Gu Wuchen will not let him leave Prison Island at this time.

Gu Wuchen smiled and said, "We just met yesterday, you have other things to do when you come to the city, so don't stay with me......"

Lin Jian was not polite to Gu Wuchen, the colleagues he invited at the lunch banquet were all middle- and low-level officials in the Inspectorate Department, and Gu Wuchen's attendance would make everyone feel restrained. I talked in Gu Wuchen's room for a while, which was nothing more than a trivial matter that was run by other government officials according to the Inspectorate Division, and it was difficult to move forward.

In other counties, according to the Inspectorate of Envoys, the Department of Supervision has the power to supervise, according to what the Department of Inspectors wants to do, the Propaganda and Envoy Department and the Admiral's Office are quite cooperative, and the lower-level yamen such as the prefecture and county are even more obedient. However, the situation of Jiangdong County is special, Jiangning Mansion and Jiangning Garrison General's Mansion are originally super yamen equal to or even higher than the three divisions, plus there are many high-ranking officials in the city, although some mausoleum guards have no real power, their prestige and influence are extremely great, making Jiangning's situation ten times more complicated than other counties, and it is also strange that Gu Wuchen still encountered many obstacles despite the halo of the upstart of the Chu Party.

It is precisely because Gu Wuchen is the upstart of the Chu Party, and the Chu Party is expected to become the center, and the local forces on the side of Jiangning are even more wary of Gu Wuchen, and they don't want to break the original balance of local forces for a strong person, and the secret stumbling blocks are endless. The previous tragedy of the displaced people was also regarded as someone secretly stumbling over Gu Wuchen in the eyes of many officials in Jiangning, and Gu Wuchen wanted to investigate the case thoroughly, so he naturally encountered many obstacles, and finally had to end it.

Regardless of the good things and bad things, the matter of escaping prison has long been spread in the yamen, and no matter what others think in their hearts, Lin Tie is a celebrity under Gu Wuchen at this time, and Gu Wuchen is an upstart in the Chu Party, everyone is optimistic that Gu Wuchen will take over the post of inspector, so during the banquet, Lin Tie heard all compliments.

After the banquet was over, Lin Jian went to the East Market to meet Liu Yue'er. He had already made an appointment with Lin Mengde to meet at the Dongyang Guild Hall, and there was still some time to see the sun, and he planned to go to the Dongyang Guild Hall together after finding Liu Yue'er.

Although there are still workshops in Jiangning City, there is no tall square wall built like the previous dynasty, the East Market is in the place where the rich and powerful eunuchs gather, in fact, it is a high-end goods market in Jiangning City, ordinary people rarely come to the East Market to shop, but after all, it is an open market, and it is inevitable that there are people from the market who come here to fish in troubled waters.

Approaching the East Market, there were more and more pedestrians on the street, so Lin Jian and Zhou Pu led the horse.

"Look ......"

Zhou Pu led the horse to a halt and reminded Lin Jian to look up at the top of a teahouse. Lin Lian looked over and saw that under the eaves of the corridor on the second floor of the tea shop, Wang Chao, the son of Yin Wang Xueshan of Jiangning Mansion, was leaning out most of his body to look into the Xiuyi Workshop in Dongshi.

Lin Jian and Zhou Pu blocked the sight of the pedestrians on the street, but when they saw Wang Chao's appearance, they knew what was going on in the Xiuyi Workshop. Lin Jian remembered that Liu Yue'er was still in the cultivation workshop, although there were four guards and soldiers with him, there should be no chaos, so he still accelerated his pace and squeezed towards the East City. Lin Jian walked past the tea shop and looked back, Wang Chao also saw others, only to see Wang Chao taken aback and retract back to the teahouse, Lin Jian felt bad.

Seeing that there were people in front of him, he squeezed over, but saw Liu Yue'er and Gu Junxun, the young lady of the Gu family, surrounded by a group of market scoundrels in the middle, Gu Junxun disguised himself as a woman, but he didn't know where to throw his hair crown or turban, and his hair was scattered like a waterfall, revealing his daughter's true face, fortunately, the four guards sent by Lin Tie to protect Liu Yue'er were there, but these market scoundrels were numerous, and they could only prevent these market scoundrels from doing anything to Liu Yue'er and Gu Junxun.

Lin Jian and Zhou Pu leaned over, only to hear those scoundrels in the market surrounding without moving their hands but full of foul language:

"Which lady came out to steal the man in the guise of a princess, so that the villagers and elders of Xiuyi Fang would know about it......"

"At this time, there is a big beauty running out again, one is dressed as a princess, it can't be playing a false phoenix, right?"

"You don't know, now the official family pays attention to two women together, these two women are delicate and beautiful, and they are so anxious to leave, I don't know which man to be cheaper together, it is more itchy than the drama sung in the Goolan courtyard......"

"I really want to find out which lady this little princess is, and ask Mr. Liu Er from Xingtianfang to make up a drama and talk about it in Jiangning City......

"Look at the uniforms, these four little soldiers are the jailers of the Jiangdao Prison, maybe these two beautiful daughters are the female prisoners in the Jiangdao Prison, don't look so beautiful, maybe they are taken to a brothel in the city to sell their bodies......"

"That's right, a few days ago, I heard that there was a female prisoner in Jiangdao Prison who was escorted to a restaurant in Quyang Town to sell, Lao Tzu has played such a bitch, and the female prisoner has not played yet, which brothel are you going to, brothers must go to the party."

Lin Jian and Zhou Pu listened to it for a while, and they knew that this matter was inseparable from Wang Chao, who leaned out from the teahouse to watch the show here just now, and it was clearly aimed at the Gu family. These scoundrels intercept people on the street and use foul language, but the patrolmen who can be encountered at night in the East Market are nowhere to be found; These scoundrels in the market just provoked with words, blocked Liu Yue'er and Gu Junxun with a human wall, and the foul language was so full that Gu Junxun's identity was squeezed out......

Liu Yue'er was still calmer, where had Gu Junxun seen this meeting, he was ashamed and angry, his face was red, he was so anxious that he was about to cry, and he was so scared that he didn't see that Lin Jian had already come, but he also knew that he couldn't report his father's name at this time, otherwise he would definitely make up rumors that were unfavorable to the Gu family for these people in the market. The other pedestrians in this East City just watched the excitement, and even felt that the two beautiful women who were like flowers and jade had enriched their spare time by flirting with each other, and no one stood up to save the beauty heroically, probably because they were afraid that this gang of scoundrels in the market would be difficult.

Wang Chao saw Lin Tie retract his head, but these scoundrels in the market did not have anyone to report to them, Lin Tie took off the waist knife and tooth tag in his hand, put the scabbard on a scoundrel who was screaming, and called him: "Brother......"

"What's the matter?" The scoundrel turned around and asked, but he gave him a sheath on his face, and before he could cover his face, he felt a strong force from his shins, and his left knee was kicked off by Lin Lian, screaming and knocking down two people in a row, his face and knees were in great pain, so that he didn't know whether it was better to cover his face or his feet.

Lin Jian took the waist knife with a sheath and stabbed the sheath, beat the scoundrels in front of him to the back of the horse, squeezed into the inner circle, and shouted: "You wait for the gangsters, in broad daylight, make trouble and make trouble and not molest the people's girls, I really think that there is no royal law in Jiangning City!" At this time, he raised his tooth card and shouted, "According to the Prosecutor's Division, ordinary people avoid accidental injuries," and turned back to reprimand the four guards, "You can't draw a knife to kill people, can't you cripple them with a sheath?" ”

Where did these scoundrels think that the unwarranted disaster would come suddenly, they first caught Lin Jian off guard and knocked down several people from behind in a mess, seeing that Lin Jian couldn't take Jiupin's civil official robe, he didn't take him seriously, and surrounded him to fight back.

Lin Tie gave an order, and the four guards who had endured for a long time and didn't dare to do it were killed like tigers and wolves at this time, holding a sheathed knife, and according to the ruthlessness that Lin Tie had just done to kick these market scoundrels and raise their knees and crotch, after practicing the splitting technique for nearly two months, they finally had a real chance to fight, and they killed this gang of market scoundrels in three or five strokes to cry and cry for their mother, only hating their father and mother for having a few legs and hiding in the crowd store.

Lin Jian was also ruthless to cripple a few people, let Zhou Pu protect the second daughter, and he personally took the sheathed knife to beat the scoundrels who had been knocked down and wanted to get up and run away.
