Chapter 104 Framing
The good banquet was disturbed by an uninvited man, and the guests were extremely disappointed, and even Su Bi was blind. It was also accused Su Bi of being too eager for quick success and instant benefits, and wanted to win over and make friends with more non-party officials, resulting in the lack of detailed investigation of the guests' identities, which made Qu Zhu, who was wearing a sword, take advantage of the loophole.
Su Bi ordered several servants from the Princess's Mansion to take Qu Zhu and take him back to Jingzhao Mansion to make a case. Liu Yu went out with Sui Yi and explained a few words, roughly meaning that Sui Yi would postpone the trial and would like to make friends with Qu Zhu.
Sui Yi was very confused about Liu Yu's decision and asked, "Brother Liu, aren't you... right? This fool... also wants to take it for himself? What if he is a clerk and acts like a fool?"
Liu Yu glanced at Qu Zhu who was being held in a listless manner and said, "Like that Wang Hu, I will keep my spirits for a few days first. Let me talk to him again." Before leaving, Liu Yu said, "We brothers have not been together for some days. Tomorrow, we call Li Mi and Hu Xuan, and we will gather in the chess building."
Sui Yi grinned and said, "Okay, I understand."
…………
On the morning of the next day, Liu Yu had arrived at the chess building early. The storytelling book I had read before was still on the table. The bookmark was still intact. I opened it and looked at the story. Soon Li Mi arrived first, and after a few words, Sui Yi also brought Hu Xuan to come together.
"Brother Liu, I finally saw you again." Hu Xuan said with a little disappointed mood. "I have been locked up at home by my father for several days. If Shuda hadn't been to find him, my father might not have let me go out. I really envy you for being a businessman and going wherever you want."
Li Mi sighed after hearing this, "Satisfied boy, I want to find someone to take care of it yet, but no one is taking care of it!"
Old friends were reunited, and several people were discussing where to go. Suddenly, a yamen came up quickly and whispered a few words in Sui Yi's ear. Sui Yi's face changed drastically: "Is there such a thing?"
Liu Yu felt that something might have happened and asked, "What happened?"
Sui Yi said with a serious expression: "Some people who don't know where they dared to make trouble in front of the Jingzhao Prefecture's yamen hall and had a conflict with the yamen."
The yamen on the side explained: "Those people claim to be people from the chariot and horse gangs, and they want the yamen to release them... Their uncle is the one with the surname Qu brought back last night by Lord Shaoyin."
Last night, Liu Yu couldn't understand why Qu Zhu passed the Wu Jinshi exam but couldn't become an official. It turned out that he had a gangster background. The middle-aged official mentioned Qu Zhu's sister was a pivotal figure in the chariot and horse gang, and might be the new leader. The gangster boss was arrested, and his younger brother rushed to the police station to clash with the police. It was a gangster movie, and Liu Yuxin said it was a bit interesting.
"Go and go and have a look."
When the group arrived at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, more than a hundred people were protesting and demonstrating in a rush. In addition, the onlookers blocked the yamen's door and could not enter the door. The group had to enter the yamen from the back hall.
"This group of people is really lawless!" Sui Yi said angrily, "and want to suppress Xingqinghui to maintain justice for the chariot and horse gangs. Now it seems that these gangs of all kinds of religions and all kinds of gangs are birds of a feather!"
Liu Yu said: "Where is Qu Zhu locked up? Take me to see."
Sui Yi accompanied Liu Yu into the cell of Jingzhao Mansion. The cell here is not as dark as the sky prison. On the contrary, it looks very spacious and bright, and it is spotless to clean. Sui Yi showed off his diligence next to him. Since he took office, Jingzhao Mansion has been repaired and cleaned in and out of the cell, and even the cell is no exception.
Liu Yu smiled and said, "You don't want to be a new official to take office for three reasons, and then you give up."
Sui Yi smiled and said, "As long as I stayed in Jingzhao Mansion for one day, this would not happen."
The prisoners in Chang'an City are basically detained in the four cities yamen. As the general yamen in Chang'an City, there are not many prisoners in Jingzhao Mansion. Some of the serious criminals are just temporarily detained and turned back to the Ministry of Justice. Seeing the young master of the Jingfu coming, many prisoners were calling for injustice, but Sui Yi ignored them and went to the door of the same cell with Liu Yu. Qu Zhu, who had walked away casually yesterday, is now sitting on the ground with her knees in her knees, her hair scattered, and she lowered her head and seemed to be thinking about things. She was too lazy to raise her head when she heard the footsteps of people coming.
"Help open the door of the prison, I'll go in and chat with him." Liu Yu said.
Sui Yi was a little worried: "Brother Liu, aren't you afraid that he will be fooled again?"
Liu Yu waved his hand and meant not to be afraid. He immediately walked in alone after the prison head opened the door and stood in front of Qu Zhu.
"Brother Qu, don't be fine."
"Is it you?" Qu Zhu raised his head, then snorted coldly, "I admire you for your good writing poems, and I admire you for your skillful methods, but if you come to see my joke, I advise you to reply as soon as possible. Even if you use a big torture, I will not make a fool!"
Liu Yu smiled and said, "Actually, I'm telling Brother Qu that there are many people outside Jingzhao Mansion who claim to be a carriage and horse gang. They want to put pressure on the government to force the government to release people. It's rare that you have such a group of good brothers."
"The carriage and horse gang has nothing to do with me, and my sister is not in Chang'an City now. Don't blame me for what they do."
It seems that Qu Zhu also knew that someone gathered to attack the government was a serious crime. Logically speaking, the horse gang is being suppressed by Xingqinghui, and Qu Zhu's sister, who is in charge, is not in Chang'an City, and will not come out to make trouble openly.
Liu Yu sighed: "Brother Qu understands what he has experienced. What a glorious thing it is to pass the martial arts Jinshi. He rejected your enthusiasm for serving the court because of his background. Have you ever thought about leaving the government and serving the generals, officials and court?"
Qu Zhu sneered: "Don't think I don't understand the law of criminal law. I'll go to the princess's house to make trouble and hijack good people. Any sentence that is too heavy is enough to sentence me to three or five or seven years. The fourth princess is mean, how could she spare me? I'm probably going to die in a wandering bitter kiln. You may not see me walking out of the prison one day!"
Qu Zhu was pessimistic and disappointed. He thought that before he went to the Fourth Princess's Mansion, he knew that he was making trouble with his future and destiny, but he still resolutely continued. If he had not despaired in this world, people would not have gone to a dead end.
Liu Yu said: "Forget it, let's talk about it easily. Why did you think of going to the carriage and horse gang?"
Qu Zhu also rarely talked to someone. This man was a general, and he was a high-ranking person on weekdays. Besides, Qu Zhu really admired Liu Yu very much and said bitterly: "If there was a way out, who would have wanted to fall into the grass? His parents died early, so they fled to Chang'an City with their sister. They thought that the people in the capital were rich and they would not starve to death if they gave alms and rice. Unexpectedly, when they came, they found that the wealth of Chang'an City was rich, but unfortunately people were indifferent. If it weren't for the old boss's intake, our brother and sister would have died of starvation on the street."
"The old leader has no children, and he treats us brothers and sisters so well. Even the aunts treat us well. The martial arts guests fought and killed us. Later, the old leader became the boss and worked for more than ten years. He gradually began to consider his heirs. My sister is more talented in martial arts than me, and she is loyal, unlike me. She is lazy and always wants to make a name for herself. The old leader sends her to the mountain to practice martial arts. After she comes back, she even gives her the carriage and horse gang matters. Now, the old leader has just left the old leader's coffin and a few aunts back to her hometown, and she will do her best to do her children's filial piety."
"Besides, I worked hard to take the Wu Jinshi exam and thought I could be a great honor for my ancestors, but because of my background in the martial arts world, the Ministry of War directly turned me out. I was very persuasive and went to the yamen to ask for help every day, but no one spoke for me. Could it be a thief for a day and a thief for a lifetime?" Qu Zhu said this, and the man was a little excited, "Besides, although I was in the chariot and horse gang, I have never done anything that hurts the world. The old leader also taught us with kindness. So what about the people in the chariot and horse gang? They are better than those officials with human faces and beasts... Oh, just pretend that I don't include you."
Liu Yu was disappointed. Those who retaliated against society were still selective to revenge? In Qu Zhu's eyes, there was no good person in the official position, which was not true. It can only be said that the officials he met on weekdays did not leave any good impression on him.
Liu Yu was about to say a few words when a noise came from the prison door. A man who was yelling loudly was carried by someone to come in with Sui Yi.
"Brother Liu, it's this bastard who takes the lead in causing trouble, and I'll capture him too!" Sui Yi said.
The man continued to yell, saying that the carriage and horse gangs were bound to take revenge, and when he saw Liu Yu and Qu Zhu, he continued to yell.
"I want to see my uncle, you mediocre officials dare to tie our uncles from the carriage and horse gang here. We will definitely shovel the yamen to the level!"
Liu Yuxin said that this man was so loud. When he saw Qu Zhu, he didn't even say hello. He was shouting loudly, as if he was not afraid that no one would know his identity. Seeing that the man's chest was bulging, Liu Yuxin said that this man's voice was thick and not like a woman. He took out a portrait from it. When he opened it, he couldn't recognize him at first glance. He looked a little similar to Qu Zhu.
Seeing Qu Zhu looking at him, the man shouted coldly: "You kid, what are you looking at? Look again, I'll slap you in a slap!"
Because the portrait is different from Qu Zhu himself, this guy didn't even recognize his uncle and cursed him. No matter how stupid Liu Yu was, he knew that there was something wrong with it. It was probably because the people from Xingqinghui wanted to make a fuss and found someone to pretend to make trouble to make trouble to confirm the charge of the chariot and horse gang, and forced the chariot and horse gang to the opposite side of the chariot and horse gang.
