Wu Shilang raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and reminded her in a trembling voice, "Master Su, please don't talk nonsense."
"Whether it's true or not, you can send someone to invite Captain Xu. I'll have a confrontation with him and I'll be able to tell."
The people immediately booed, "Yes! Bring Xu Jing to confront Su Zhen! This matter must be discussed clearly!"
"I knew that Xu Lin was a scum, and his brother was indeed not a good person either! I heard that he was the number one scholar in martial arts back then! I didn't expect that he was also a beast in disguise!"
Su Zhen said a few words and pointed the finger directly at Xu Jing. Before the truth is known, if there are people who can trust their lies, they can naturally throw dirty water around.
Since we are destined to be dirty, no one wants to be clean!
Wu Shilang had no choice but waved his hand and asked people to go to the Duwei Mansion to invite Xu Jing here.
"Prince Yu, Mr. Su, this case will be investigated impartially and strictly. You two can go inside and rest first."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he quietly exchanged glances with the government official who had come to inform him earlier. The man quietly retreated while the people's attention was diverted.
Yu Ziye wanted to stop him, but Su Zhen shook her head at him.
She wanted to see if the person behind Xu Jing could keep his composure!
Yu Ziye and others were then arranged to take a short rest in the inner office. He waved his hand, dismissed the boy, and looked at Su Zhen.
"Brother Yu is only a fifth-rank official, while Xu Jing is a third-rank captain. Fortunately, we arrived in time. If we had been a step later, we would have been too late."
Su Zhen looked at the booklet in her hand and said casually, "The people behind the scenes want to use rumors to force us to death. If that's the case, then I will go along with the flow and let them trap themselves."
"I'm not afraid, but even if you can injure the enemy a thousand times this time, you will injure yourself eight hundred and put the Tutor's Mansion in danger."
"Originally, I was supposed to leave the palace last night. My father knew about our friendship, so he expected that I would not stand by and watch, so he came to Jinsexuan and wanted to stop me. But the court is now full of moths. If they are not cleared away, I am afraid that there will be real danger inside.
It will decay. One day, it will definitely be shaken by some danger. Since he has more than enough ambition but not enough power, then let me do it."
"I didn't expect you to have such great righteousness in your heart." Yu Ziye said with emotion.
"Great justice? I just respect Marshal Xiao Mohan. It's a pity that the world and the imperial court that he and the loyal souls of the three thousand generals bought with their lives are over like this."
"Tough talk!"
Su Zhen smiled and said nothing, the world's righteousness and justice had nothing to do with her.
But every time she thought about this, she always felt that she owed the monk something.
This world is what he wants to protect, and her life is also saved by him...
If she owes too much, she is afraid of not being able to pay it back and has an uneasy conscience.
But... what exactly is owed?!
"By the way, Aning, who do you think was the instigator of the assassin last night?"
Su Zhen blinked her eyes and calmed down her emotions, "According to your previous description, the assassins we encountered should not be sent by the same person. The person who killed me was just a test, and there was no actual murder. And Mu Lin Street is extremely prosperous.
It's in a certain location, but they hid in the shop in advance, obviously they came prepared."
"Do you still think they are looking for something? Besides Zhenshuang, what else is worth them... No! It's Gu Yunshu's jade button?!"
Yu Ziye suddenly realized that there seemed to be a vague thread gradually connecting them.
"We will talk about this later. The most important thing now is to hold off those people and give Yu Qianhu and the others a chance to find more clues and clear Tang Yinchen's innocence. If my prediction is correct, Xu Jing must be there.
Try every means to make Tang Yinchen take the blame and put him to death."
The officialdom is different from the struggle in the inner circle. There are intrigues and intrigues, and every step is planned. If you are not careful, you are very likely to be killed by the nine tribes.
Yu Ziye said with disdain, "They are just eels crawling on plowshares and locusts wrapped around plow tips! They are just cunning! Are they worthy of your attention?"
"But it's the eels and the locusts you talk about that are intertwined and push us to this point."
Su Zhen's eyes fell on one part of the booklet inadvertently, and she was a little confused. She turned through a few pages again and found many abnormalities.
At this time, there were rapid footsteps outside, and the official from the Ministry of Punishment said outside, "Your Majesty, Mr. Su, and Captain Xu have arrived. Please come to the court."
"Okay, come here." Yu Ziye responded.
They straightened their clothes and followed the yamen servant outside.
This is a public trial, and people can watch from the outside.
In the court, Mr. Wu is sitting at attention, and the master below is sitting in front of the case. The four treasures of the study are ready. Several government officials stand in two rows on both sides of the court, holding black and red 'killing sticks' in their hands, majestic. Above the court,
The plaque with the words 'Mirror Hangs High' flaunts selflessness, integrity and strictness.
In front of outsiders, after all, there are differences in status. Yu Ziye sat aside to listen to the trial, supporting his chin with his left hand, very comfortable. Su Zhen stood quietly behind him, not making any unnecessary moves for the time being.
The people outside were filled with sorrow and their voices became even louder. Some even sat on the ground, slapping their thighs and crying loudly.
Seeing Xu Jing and his troops coming on horseback, the people threw the vegetable leaves that they had not finished throwing at them. If they had finished throwing them, they picked up stones from the ground and smashed them.
"You goddammit! Give my child back!"
"Beast! You are so cruel!"
"The imperial court is afraid that it is blind to let someone like you become an official!"
How could the officers and soldiers allow them to act recklessly? They drew their swords one after another and kicked everyone in the way to the ground.
The common people were frightened by his strong attitude and subconsciously took a few steps back. Faced with countless sharp knives, no one dared to take the lead.
Xu Jing was wearing gray battle armor and holding a broad sword. His facial features were straight, his sword-shaped eyebrows flew into his temples, and he had green stubble on his chin. The ferocious look in his eyebrows and eyes was intimidating. He cast a sidelong glance at these common people and jumped off his horse.
Looking at the people outside gradually becoming calmer, Wu Shilang subconsciously twisted his neck, feeling a little embarrassed, cleared his throat, and slapped the gavel tree with a 'pop' sound, "Shengtang!"
The master received the signal from Wu Shilang and said loudly, "Send Captain Xu Jing to come to the court!"
Under everyone's attention, he strode into the courtroom. Wu Shilang noticed the coldness in his eyes and swallowed a few times involuntarily.
"The last general Xu Jing has met Mr. Wu, Prince Yu."
Xu Jing leaned down to bow in an extremely perfunctory manner, and stood up without waiting for Yu Ziye to respond.
Su Zhen secretly laughed in her heart. The son of her family has always been arrogant and very small-minded. Xu Jing is in the court, but he still doesn't know how to restrain himself. I really don't know whether to laugh at him for being so arrogant or to sympathize with what he will face soon.
situation.
Xu Jing raised his chin slightly and said in a cold voice, "Master Wu, you have sent people here several times. Don't you know that this general has important things to do recently?!"
"This..." Wu Shilang couldn't help but look at Su Zhen.
Su Zhen had a half-smile on her lips. "Captain Xu, the Viceroy asked you to come. Of course, someone wants to accuse the Commander of your condition! Could it be that I'm here to treat you to sweet soup?"
"What did you say?" Xu Jing glanced at her with murderous intent.
Su Zhen slowly raised her eyes, her mind was calm and not anxious.
The Minister of Punishment was a third-rank imperial official, but he was afraid of being a third-rank captain. It seemed that the person behind Xu Jing was really Ji Mengping, the Prime Minister of the Left.
He and Su Tingye had always been at odds with each other, and they often went toe-to-toe in the court, refusing to give in to each other. It was precisely for this reason that Su Tingye was worried about Ji Mengping's dealings with her, so he appeared in time to stop her last night.
However, I couldn't hide it anymore at this time, as everyone in Kyoto must have known about the commotion.
Su Zhen acted spontaneously without any warning, so Xu Jing could not predict and take precautions.
"Captain Xu, are you afraid that your ears are stuffed with donkey hair? I will sue you today for harming the people!"
