Chapter 66(1/2)

Bu Yifan's brow jumped.

To enforce the law, to be punished, to be strict and fair, to follow the rules and eliminate personal gain, the crime must be determined to be famous in the rear. Even if the evil murderer is unforgivable, he can only be called a suspect before closing the case and convicting the crime. Those with low positions and low positions are like runners in a county, they must also be kept in mind.

Deng Xu was the nine ministers and was in charge of Dali Temple for several years. However, when the trial was opened, he called the suspect a "rebel" when he spoke.

This suspect is also the third-rank censor.

In this situation, Bu Yifan should have a squeak.

However, Bu Yifan thought of the person sitting on the other side of the wall behind him...

Could Deng Xu make a mistake just by speaking?

Fortunately, when Bu Yifan was thinking, Tao Zhoufeng whispered for him: "Mr. Deng, although the department still does not know the final analysis of the case,... the case has not been decided, is it more appropriate to call him a suspect?"

Deng Xu said: "The rebel thief Liu Zhihui has confirmed his crime of treason. Therefore, this temple is called this."

Confirm, sure enough.

The crime of treason cannot be decided casually by Deng Xu. It must be...

A person appeared silently at the side door, and made a gesture to Deng Xu. Deng Xu said again: "However, Lord Tao said it very well. The case has not been tried yet. It is inappropriate to use this title, so I will change it to the suspect. Thank you for your correction." He looked at Bu Yifan with a smile, "Master Bu remember to remember to remember this loss in this temple."

Bu Yifan hurriedly laughed.

At this moment, the guards took Liu Zhihui there.

He tied iron chains and shackled his body. The guard took off the black cloth bag he wore on his head, exposed his face, and even had a cloth towel in his mouth.

Tao Zhoufeng looked shocked and endured it. When he was about to speak again, Deng Xu said first: "The two adults may not know that the suspect Liu Zhihui is actually very skilled in martial arts, and he is a party member of him. After being arrested, they both sued themselves to avoid crimes. This temple has to be so precautioned."

Bu Yifan could only be speechless.

Tao Zhoufeng sighed sadly: "Honbudo is really becoming more and more young people who are unable to understand the present."

Deng Xu nodded: "Yes, they are all versatile, which is really surprising."

Liu Zhihui stood in the hall, with a calm attitude.

He didn't even look at Lan Jue sitting next to him. Although he faced the hall, he didn't seem to look at Deng Xu and the other two.

He stood in this stone hall, and nothing in the hall was in his eyes.

Be bright and hold your body, and have a distinctive character.

Lan Jue remembered these eight words that the same subject evaluated Liu Zhihui when he was a student.

Eight words that I have no chance with Lan Jue in this life.

A few years ago, the situation came to his eyes. Because of Gu Qingzhang, he participated in a literary meeting for the same subject examination for the first time. In the garden of a private residence in the south of the city, a man greeted Gu Qingzhang: "Brother Shulin, you haven't known Brother Liu yet. This is a talented man. We all hope that he can be the top scorer in the current subject, and you two will definitely be able to negotiate."

Liu Zhihui stood up from his seat, looked humble, and bowed to Gu Qingzhang: "Brother Sun is so proud that he dares not stand firm. I am inferior to Liu Zhihui."

Lan Jue had long recognized Liu Zhihui, but people like Liu Zhihui naturally would not deal with him. Even if they met him, they would go their own way and pass by him. They had never formally greeted each other. Therefore, even if others only introduced Liu Zhihui to Gu Qingzhang, Lan Jue had to stand up and greet Liu Zhihui.

Liu Zhihui returned the gift briefly and continued to talk to Gu Qingzhang.

It seems to be polite and thoughtful, but it has not been neglected, but it is clearly revealed and does not take Lan Jue into consideration.

Lan Jue was very angry at that time.

Then, the wine couplet and Liu Zhihui's poems were all applauded. Lan Jue felt that it was not as good as everyone praised. After that, Gu Qingzhang's couplet was much more agile than him. Just as he was about to cheer for Gu Qingzhang, Liu Zhihui stood up and sucked his hands: "Miaojue, Liu is ashamed."

The person sitting in the same seat said: "Brother Liu and Brother Gu's words are equivalent to those of jade, so there is no need to be too humble."

Lan Jue sneered secretly disapprovingly, and Gu Qingzhang also stood up and said, "Mizang Miuzang, I am actually not good at singing. Peizhi is much better than me."

According to the convention and rules at the literary meeting, Liu Zhihui stood up and cheered, indicating that he wanted to continue the poem to Gu Qingzhang. Everyone praised the same kind of pearls and jade, and also agreed to let Liu Zhihui and Gu Qingzhang say this, but after Gu Qingzhang said this, everyone had to let Lan Jue continue. In this case, Lan Jue should be pushed back with his talent and knowledge, and after two or three times, Liu Zhihui reluctantly and modestly.

But Lan Jue was so angry that he didn't refuse and answered.

The scene was silent for a moment. Only Gu Qingzhang said: "I'm absolutely sorry. My sentence just now was a bit rigid. Peizhi's connection made me live a little more. Sure enough, I have to rely on Peizhi for the couplet."

Liu Zhihui smiled faintly: "Brother Lan's wonderful sentence." Turning around and sitting down. The others also praised it briefly. After a moment of embarrassment, the people around Lan Jue reluctantly took on this sentence.

When the show ended, Liu Zhihui came over to say goodbye to Gu Qingzhang and said politely to Lan Jue. It was still very polite.

After Lan Jue returned, he was so stupid that he didn't say much, but Gu Qingzhang said to him guiltily: "Peizhi, I'm sorry, I don't know how to do things."

Lan Jue said hard: "It's nothing. I'm not a member of them. I will definitely be embarrassed to be together. I won't go for such a thing in the future."

Gu Qingzhang said: "I don't think there is anything fun either. I'll just push it in the future."

Lan Jue said: "Why do you have to refuse? They really want to make friends with you. In fact, you shouldn't have interacted with me, you and Liu Zhihui should have become confidants."

If you really think I am a friend, ignore Liu Zhihui.

The hint of understanding is like a three-year-old child.

For some reason, Lan Jue recalled such a self, laughing and missed him a little.

Gu Qingzhang's expression was in front of him at that time. From this day on, he often showed this expression and said, "Peizhi..."

Shulin, Shulin, did you really know Liu Zhihui for the first time?

What is your relationship with Liu Zhihui?

What's the secret of that apricot fruit?

Why, you want to give it to me?

Deng Xu said solemnly: "The suspect has arrived. Let me briefly talk about the whole story of the case."

Tao Zhoufeng and Bu Yifan were in the sea of ​​clouds and mist, and they were excited when they heard it.

"A few months ago, Dali Temple received a report, and some people spread rumors among the people, with misconduct. After secretly pursuing the source, the temple and the new decree Liu Tongyi went to Yiping County, Mutian County to investigate. They received assistance from the magistrate Gao Kan and Yiping County Magistrate Zhang Ping, and obtained a group of rioters hidden among the people and Yiping County Magistrate. This group of rioters was huge, with lush branches and leaves. Some pretended to be ordinary people and crawled into the civilian government offices; some were beautiful women and those who pretended to be ghosts, bewitched people's hearts. Dozens of people arrested were just small soldiers. The mastermind was still hidden behind the scenes. Our temple also set up a situation with the Minister of Rites, Gao Zhigong, and Zhang Ping set up a situation to lure the female assassin Li Wan, and brought the criminal behind the court for many years. "

Bu Yifan praised: "This station suddenly realized that Lord Deng's layout is really exquisite. Before, he only knew that Lord Deng went to Yiping in vain and arrested a group of riots. He also thought that the case had been closed. He did not expect that there would be a case after the case. Lord Deng's actions were also to lead a snake out of the hole. I admire him, and I admire him! Mr. Lan was in the Ministry of Rites and was poisoned, and he actually committed danger and assisted in investigating the case. The emperor often taught that in addition to performing his duties, the ministries in the court should cooperate and cooperate to open up harmony and benefit the country. Mr. Lan's move is in line with the Hadith, and this station is ashamed and praised you!"

Tao Zhoufeng followed him with a smile and agreed with a few words, then said with a wish, "...but, some of the key points of this department have not yet understood. For example...How could Liu Zhihui do such a thing? He was born in the top scholar and was in his prime. The emperor treated him very well with the court. He had a great future, so why did he become a rioter?" Turned his heartache to Liu Zhihui, "The rioters are the ones. Reading the books of the saints and establishing the ranks of gentlemen, why would he be so willing to fall into depravity? Where did Lord Deng catch him? His body seemed to be what the people call night clothes. A third-rank important official actually wore a short clothes. Is this... there...?"

Deng Xu cut off Tao Zhoufeng's words: "This temple captured the suspect at the home of Mr. Lan. The suspect flew over the eaves and walked around the wall in the middle of the night, and used medicine to charm the servants at Mr. Lan's home, and then sneaked into Mr. Lan's bedroom."

Tao Zhoufeng looked at Liu Zhihui with even more shock and sadness: "Have you really practiced martial arts? Then this night clothes were worn for this. Why did you go to Lord Lan's bedroom in the middle of the night? You and Lord Lan were the same officials as you, so what could you not visit and solve? You have to do this? At that time, Mr. Lan was on the bed? Liu Zhihui wanted to take you..."

Lan Jue stood up and said, "When you say that, Liu Zhihui went to Xiaguan's bedroom not for Xiaguan, but for a decoration. Xiaguan had already pretended to be dead at that time."

Tao Zhoufeng stroked his beard: "Hanging ornaments?"

Deng Xu signaled Lan Jue to return to his seat and said, "A jade apricot fruit is the key to this case and the key to expose the identity of the real murderer."

Tao Zhoufeng nodded slightly and said, "I saw that the suspect's eyelids trembled slightly, as if he had something to say. He always didn't say anything, and it was inconvenient to examine the case. Why not leave it alone?"

Deng Xu raised his hand to the guards, and the guards took out the cloth and wooden shackles from Liu Zhihui's mouth, but their hands and feet were still tied with iron chains.

Liu Zhihui bowed to Tao Zhoufeng slightly: "Mr. Xie Tao."

Tao Zhoufeng sighed: "Oh, don't commit suicide because of this. The court does not handle unjust cases. If you want to defend yourself, you can also speak out."

Liu Zhihui said: "Mr. Xie, the lower official is indeed wronged. The lower official holds the position of the censor and is in charge of the supervisor. Because the minister Lan was poisoned suddenly because of the incident of accepting bribes, it is probably related to bribery. The minister Lan is an important member of the Ministry of Rites. Investigating this matter is the important matter of the Censorate and it is related to murder. It cannot be easily handed over to his subordinates. The subordinate official visited Lan Mansion at night, hoping to see if there are any clues to follow. Unexpectedly, the minister Lan colluded with his family and committed a fraud and died. The official thought that the minister Lan was really dead. He was shocked. He heard that his personal servant mentioned that the minister Lan was wearing an apricot fruit ornament and entered the bedroom of Lan."

Lan Jue couldn't help but feel happy.

Those who pretend to behave are not only him in the past, but also Liu Zhihui who has always been.

Liu Zhihui is still continuing.

"The lower official does not know what words Lan Shishang provided to Lord Deng and what assistance he had. But this jade apricot fruit is indeed of great importance, so the lower official wants to take it as evidence. Everything the lower official said is true, and the lower official can send the lower official to confront the lower official."

Deng Xu raised his eyebrows: "Oh, let's talk about it, what are the major secrets of this apricot fruit?"

Liu Zhihui looked around: "It's about secrets, can the lower officials really tell me?"

Deng Xu said: "I'll have nothing to say in this hall when I'm trying to judge you."

Liu Zhihui said: "Xiaguan was the prefect of Mutian County and even compiled local chronicles. Gujiazhuang in Yiping County is believed to know the secret. Gujiazhuang is a clan of the previous dynasty. A few years ago, the village was destroyed by a plague. When Xiaguan compiled local chronicles, he was ordered to hide the origin of this village. If the adults do not believe it, please ask Zeng Xiang."

Deng Xu nodded: "No need to ask, it's true, I know."

Liu Zhihui said: "That adult should also know that the emblem of Gujiazhuang is four leaves and three apricot fruits. Xiaguan was the same year as Minister Lan. During the imperial examination, there was a test student named Gu Qingzhang, a person from Gujiazhuang who unfortunately died of illness later. He had a close contact with Minister Lan. In fact, just the day before Xiaguan visited Lan's mansion at night, Minister Lan asked the minister to come to his mansion to speak, and suddenly mentioned Gu Qingzhang and that he had a jade apricot fruit in his hand."

Deng Xu's eyes turned to Lan Jue: "Shisan Lan, is this matter true?"

Lan Jue stood up and said, "It's true. But Xiaguan said something to Liu Zhihui at that time, "I know that he gave poison."

Liu Zhihui said: "When the lower officials heard what Mr. Lan said, they immediately had two thoughts. One was that Mr. Lan was seriously poisoned and was unconscious; the other was that Mr. Lan was poisoned, and might have a major connection with Gujiazhuang."

Deng Xu said: "Then which kind of guess do you prefer?"

Liu Zhihui said: "There are both, otherwise Mr. Lan would not have told me about this matter specifically. He was also worried that the subordinates would enter Mr. Lan's mansion at night."

Deng Xu smiled: "If you say it well, it will make sense and make it perfect. According to your inference, it is Mr. Lan who is related to the Gujiazhuang."

Liu Zhihui said calmly: "I don't know how Minister Lan made a next game with Lord Deng and led the Lord to the trap. I think the case investigated by Lord Gujiazhuang involves Gujiazhuang. Lord Lan is afraid of being involved, so as to why he chose the Lord, he doesn't know."

Deng Xu narrowed his eyes: "As a wronged person, I am so calm."

Liu Zhihui bowed: "The lower official believes that if the sky is above, there are three masters in charge of the trial, and he will definitely not be wronged."

Deng Xu's expression turned cold: "Forget it, let's stop here! Your house has been investigated, and Lingtang committed suicide due to crime. What else do you have to say!"

Liu Zhihui's face changed drastically: "Jia Ci actually..."

Deng Xu slapped the awkward tree and interrupted him: "Forget it, there is no need to do any more filial son's play. As soon as the guard entered the door, the order hall fell into a pillar and died. He died so quickly! I thought I could get through the situation without the usual way of death. Can you tell me why the southern and northern tangerines are in the north, and the soil and the other side are in the water? I have been educated by the rioters since I was a child. I caught more, so I naturally found that the same thing was the same. The nails were hidden weapons for poison-hiding needles, which were different from others. The body movements of entering the house and the inadvertent actions were traceable everywhere."
