Zhu Tu coughed and said seriously, "My lord, after hearing the news, I paid great attention to it."
The White Lotus Sect has always been restless. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court has had a decree to severely crack down on the cult. A few years ago, the White Lotus Sect in Shaanxi rebelled. Emperor Taizu Gao personally issued an imperial edict to hunt down White Lotus believers throughout the Ming Dynasty.
】If this Pengjiazhuang in Qingzhou is really the White Lotus Sect and has such a big power, then what? But the matter has not been found out yet. Based on Chen Hu’s words, the lower official is not sure, so he just wanted to give a brief report to Lord Ji.
After a while, I rushed to Shandong in person to investigate the details.
After Xiaguan arrived in Shandong, he learned that Chen Hu was suspicious of the Peng family. When he investigated the real details, he found out that the owner of Pengzhuang was actually the father-in-law of Duke Fu.
Your Excellency, please do not laugh. Although a low-ranking official is receiving a salary from the imperial court and serving as an errand for the imperial court, the matter involves an important official of the imperial court, such as the Duke of Fu.
Before the truth was revealed, the official did not dare to act rashly against Pengjiazhuang. Moreover, at this time, the Duke of Fu also happened to return to Qingzhou for a funeral. With him in Pengjiazhuang, how could the official dare to do anything rashly? He wanted to go to Pu Tai first to find out who was using the evil spell.
Let’s talk about the details of the little girl. In order to avoid alerting others, the official changed her disguise and pretended to be a businessman. He secretly went to Putai County and followed the little girl for several days. He found that the only places she usually visited were Xu Zeheng’s house, Xi’s wife’s house, and
The subordinates of Lin Yu's Qi family thought that a child, innocent and naive, would be a remnant of a bandit, but he would not be possessed by evil spirits. If he started from her, it would be easy to find out the truth, so he ordered three of his subordinates to find an opportunity to hurry her back.
, make a secret inquiry. Who knows..."
Zhu Tu took a long breath and said in a deep voice, "That day, the girl named Tang Sai'er was going to the old lady Qiu's house. Three of my subordinates sneaked into Qiu's courtyard and wanted to kidnap her quietly.
Came back, but just... disappeared..."
Chen Ying had already understood everything from their testimonies, but the two interrogators were not clear about it. It was necessary for them to understand clearly. Chen Ying glanced at the desk where she was busy writing and recording the trial testimony, and asked, "Where are you missing?"
"
Zhu Tu said with certainty, "Yes! Whereabouts unknown! Those three subordinates of Xiaguan are all highly skilled, alert and capable lieutenants of our Jinyiwei. One of them is Xiaoqi, but they sneaked into an old woman's house and arrested an old woman.
A girl who is only eight years old this year and three strong men have disappeared without a trace!"
Lu Zhen, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, changed his tone when he heard this. He had been disapproving of the case before. He was still waiting for Jin Yiwei's joke. Now he has defected to the camp of the eldest prince. He is considered to be in the same political faction as Ji Gang, but he is
Born, he and Ji Gang were destined to have different paths. Although Xie Jin and others could not stand up to his integrity, on this point, they had the same views and would exclude Ji Gang whenever they had the chance.
But after hearing such a confession, he couldn't help but have doubts about how to solve such a thing.
Can an ordinary old woman and little girl have the ability to make three strong and specially trained spies disappear out of thin air?
Zhu Tu saw the expressions of the three of them in his eyes, with a hint of amusement on his lips, and continued, "If something like this happens, I can't just ignore it. The old woman and the little girl must be very suspicious and even more fishy."
Yes, the day after the incident, the two of them went to the Lin family's Taibaiju Restaurant and stayed for a long time, staying up all night.
We dare not go to war until we have real evidence..."
Hearing this, Chen Ying couldn't help but interjected: "Jinyiwei's questioning of people" is a case involving the serious crime of rebellion. When did you need to be so scrupulous? You have already lost three of your subordinates, and you don't dare to make it public.
Take someone?"
Zhu Tu was secretly angry when he heard the sarcasm in his words, but at this moment he still hoped to borrow Chen Ying's knife to cut Yang Xu, but he did not dare to contradict him, so he could only pretend to smile awkwardly, and said in a dignified voice, "This...
"If we arrest someone publicly, the matter will become a big deal. Once the Duke of Fu gets the news and knows that we are investigating him without any evidence, the subordinates will not dare to offend the Duke of Fu."
Chen Ying snorted and said, "Go on!"
"yes"
Zhu Tu sorted out his thoughts and said, "The official may have been too cautious. At this point, he still wanted to conduct a secret investigation and get the evidence first. Qiu and Tang Sai'er were already alert, so the official thought
Target Xu Zeheng. This person has also been to Pengjiazhuang. At the same time, Tang Saier has close contacts with his family.
After the official sent someone to arrest Xu Zeheng, he immediately left Putai County and fled to Le'an Prefecture, where he was interrogated again. At first, he refused to tell the truth, but later he was afraid of the national law and finally betrayed him..." Chen Ying leaned forward.
, said, "How did he confess? Tell it carefully! Write it down in detail on the record, and don't miss a word!" The picture said, "Then Xu Zeheng confessed that he was indeed a White Lotus cultist, and the leader was Lin Yuqi. He also listed all his
He also admitted that the old lady of Pengjiazhuang was a senior of the White Lotus Sect. Although he did not know the specific identity, he knew that even with the respect of their leader, when he went to Pengjiazhuang to express his condolences,
, also performs the rites of disciples and rites of juniors.
The lower official heard that Pengjiazhuang was indeed the White Lotus Sect, and that there was also a White Lotus Sect incense hall in Putai County. He was shocked. These people were lurking so deeply. The lower official didn't know if the Putai County government had their eyes and ears, so he didn't dare to call the White Lotus Sect.
The men and horses from Tai County came here, so they borrowed patrol agents from Le'an Prefecture and rushed all the way back to Putai to pick up the people. Who would have thought that after the official rushed back to Putai..."
Zhu Tu glanced at the three presiding judges and said seriously, "Who would have thought that I would arrive in Pubai?" He found that the Lin family had been razed to the ground and that all the leaders of the White Lotus Sect who Xu Zeheng had confessed to died..."
Chen Ying's eyes flashed with a cold light, "Killing and silencing is still..."
Zhu Tu calmly said, "The official was astonished. After asking, I found out that some of my elders from Jinyi South Town were going to Zhigu on business and passed through Putai County. They found out that Shi Song, the Qingshuibo thief, was hiding in Putai County."
, immediately informed Du Qianhu of the guard station, led his army into the city, and captured Shi Song alive at Wu Han's house.
This Wu Han was one of the incense owners of the White Lotus Sect confessed by Xu Zeheng. Shi Song immediately confessed that Putai County scholar Shen Lin Yuqi had colluded with him for a long time and was an accomplice of each other, and was the real culprit who harbored him.
Du Qianhu immediately led his troops to besiege the Lin Mansion, but the Lin family actually resisted with weapons and resisted the officers and soldiers. After the battle, the Lin family was completely burned by a fire..."
Zhu Tu smiled deeply and said, "This is what the official knows. As for whether there are people who kill people and silence them, or there are people who take advantage of the opportunity, that is not what the official knows. Please take a closer look..."
Chen Ying raised her voice and said, "Come on! Please invite Chen Dong and Chen Qianhu, Jin Yiweinan Town Fu Secretary!"
These people had already been brought in, and those waiting outside the lobby were told to plan something. After a short while, Chen Dong walked into the lobby swaggeringly.
Chen Xu said, "Chen Qianhu..."
Chen Dong interrupted him and said, "My lord, I am not a prisoner, so why don't I have a seat?"
Chen Ying choked and ordered, "Give Mr. Chen a seat!"
The flag sign on the side hurriedly moved a chair over. Chen Dong sat on the chair and looked across the way. He saw Zhu Tu looking at him eagerly and couldn't help but smile. The two of them sat on one side, one on the other, with their knees bent, eager to try.
It was as if two tigers were waiting for each other, shaking their heads and wagging their tails, fighting for their lives, but Zhu Tu was murderous, while Chen Dong looked more calm.
Chen Ying coughed, interrupted the exchange of glances between the two, and said, "Sir Chen, just now Master Zhu said that he was handling a case of the White Lotus Sect in Putai County, and found out that Nashi Shen Lin Yuqi was actually a member of the White Lotus Sect.
When Fanghui was about to send troops to capture him, he found out that you had killed him first. Mr. Chen, can you tell me how you got the news about the thief Shi Song when you went to Zhigu on business, and how you eradicated him?"
Chen Dong said "Oh" and smiled shyly, "My Lord Liu has already said that the official now knows that he has ruined Beizhen's good deeds. Haha, Beizhen has always acted alone, and has never
Someone informed Xiaguan, but Xiaguan didn’t know anything about it beforehand!”
After Chen Dongdao finished his opening remarks, he put away his smiling face and said seriously, "Masters of the Ministry, my lords, I am a member of the Royal Guards, and my job is to conduct reconnaissance. Wherever I go, I am a little different from ordinary people. I was going to go there
I was on business in Zhigu and passed through Putai County. I was tired all the way, so I and a few of my subordinates randomly found a small hotel to have some food and drinks.
I accidentally saw a man coming to the shop to buy some wine, meat, fish and shrimp. The shopkeeper laughed at how generous he had become now. He was a butcher and never bought meat from the hotel. Now he was not only willing to spend money, he was also willing to make good wine and buy fish.
Shrimp, just as we were talking, the man buying groceries left, and we settled the bill and left the hotel.
Not wanting to continue going, I happened to pass by an alley and saw a man standing in the backyard of a house from the top of the wall. It was the man who had just gone to the store to buy wine and meat. The subordinate was also alert, so he immediately hid his whereabouts and peeped quietly, only to
Seeing him glancing around, he squatted down and knocked on the cellar cover with his hand, and a man came out. The two exchanged a few words, and the man took the wine and meat, and then sneaked back into the cellar."
Chen Dongdao said, "My lords," this scene alone is extremely strange. Why would a normal person be so sneaky? What's more, the official was on the wall, clearly seeing the man coming out of the cellar.
Xiaguan entered the territory of Shandong. Along the way, he passed many people from Dacheng to Xiaonao. There were many pictures on the top of the city. Among them was a water bandit named Shisong, who looked exactly like the man hiding in the cellar.
Exactly the same, why doesn't the official understand this person's identity at this time?
The official is a member of the imperial court. Since he saw the criminal wanted by the imperial court, how can he ignore it? Because he did not know the size of the cellar and the number of strongmen hiding in it, the official did not dare to be rash, so he asked someone to keep watch nearby and rushed to the guardhouse on his own.
, I borrowed officers and soldiers to capture him, I think Zhu Qianhu has already said it, so I won’t go into details about what I know and did, that’s all!”
Chen Ying turned around and asked the bookcase, ‘Have you written it all down?”
The desk clerk nodded hurriedly and said, "I've taken note of everything, little one!" Chen Ying turned around and said to Chen Dong with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Chen. The testimony has been recorded. Please sign and sign it before leaving!"
'good!"
Chen Dong stood up, walked over in a hurry, signed his name on the testimony with a pen, made another sign of the cross, put the pen down, patted his butt and walked away.
Chen Xu looked solemn and said, "Come on! Bring Tang Sai'er!" Good news, the book review section can post videos. Several talented book friends wrote their own lyrics and asked others to sing for "Night Walk in Jinyi"
I wrote a song and it’s now pinned to the top of the book review section. Everyone is welcome to enjoy it. It’s still a work-in-progress. The lyrics are below. You can listen to the lyrics and listen to the song. Hehe, it sounds pretty good.
