A group of people looked around in shock, only to see a paunchy middle-aged man in luxurious clothes walking in the corner, followed by two gorgeous women.
The big man in green frowned and shouted: "Who are you? Why are you shouting?"
The middle-aged man held up his hands and said with a smile: "This military master is just an unknown person in Zilin below."
The big man in green shouted: "It doesn't matter if your surname is Fang or Yuan, who did you just say was outrageous? Who did you say was incompetent? Do you want to stand up for this person?"
The middle-aged man hurriedly said: "How dare you? How dare I scold this boy for being disrespectful and spreading rumors to confuse the public? How can I be defeated now? I am so wise and powerful, and my charioteer personally went on an expedition. He defeated a bandit in Funiu Mountain and scattered them like birds and beasts. How could he be defeated?" ?How can we tolerate this guy when he spreads rumors to confuse the public? He must be taught a lesson."
The big man in green frowned and said, "There's no need for you to talk too much. I, the Imperial City Secretary, will take care of him. I'll leave him alone."
The middle-aged man waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, no, I have to take care of it. I can't just ignore it. I have to take care of this kid. I'm not idle. Wait until I slap him a few times and wake him up."
Everyone was confused, and the big man in green stared at him and yelled: "Why can't you understand people? Why are you trying to stand out? This is the responsibility of the Imperial City Department, who are you?"
The middle-aged man smacked his lips and said: "Oh, the military master doesn't know something. I am not a green onion, but I can't ignore it. This guy...he is my nephew. He came to Beijing from Huainan Road to take the exam. He lives in my house. Now that he comes out and talks nonsense, can I ignore him? If I don't care, won't I be implicated by him?"
"What? He's your nephew?" the man in green asked in surprise. The young scholar also stared blankly at Lin Jue with his bleeding mouth open, wondering if he had a relative appearing out of nowhere.
"Isn't that true? Of course, he is not a nephew. His mother's cousin is my wife's cousin, but we are also close, right? I have been entrusted to take care of him in the capital, how can I not fulfill my responsibility? But Who knew that this kid was suffering from madness? Since coming to Beijing in October, he had fallen ill several times and ran out of the house many times. Our whole family had to look for him several times. No, he ran away again the day before yesterday. We I've been looking for him for several days, and if you hadn't found him today, you would have almost missed him. Whenever he gets mad, he talks nonsense and curses, and there's really nothing we can do about it." The middle-aged man rubbed his hands and sighed.
These few sentences contained too much information, and the big man in green was a little dazed. It took him a long time to figure it out. It turned out that the middle-aged man in front of him was the distant uncle of the person he wanted to arrest for spreading rumors and confusing the public. He came to the capital to take the exam and stayed with him. From what he said, he seemed to be suffering from madness. Whenever he got sick, he would run around and talk nonsense.
The middle-aged man was Lin Jue. He couldn't bear it when he saw this, so he stood up.
Juzi, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, suddenly shouted: "Who is your nephew? Who is crazy and talking nonsense. I don't know this person."
Lin Jue spread his hands and smiled bitterly and said to the people around him: "See, you don't even recognize me. This person with madness has no relatives and never admits that he is a madman. Hey, it is really pitiful and disgusting. What do you think? , I got into such a thing for no reason, and I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes."
The big man in green clothes said suspiciously: "How can you prove what you said? It doesn't look like he is crazy. He just spoke in an orderly manner."
Lin Jue said in astonishment: "His words are still coherent? His madness is so severe, and your military master still says that he is coherent? But will anyone with brains slander the emperor in public? Is this not a lunatic? He is just
He seems to be speaking clearly and coherently, but this is the beginning of the disease. When it gets worse, he will stretch his legs, stare, foam at the mouth, bite and curse like a mad dog. I'm not talking nonsense, Master, if you take him back now, unless you kill him with one knife
Otherwise, if you start biting and cursing inside, your yamen will not be able to live in peace."
The big man in green frowned and sneered: "You entered our imperial city's Yamen, and you're still afraid of him causing trouble? Hehe."
Lin Jue smiled bitterly and said: "Of course I'm not afraid of that. However, you military masters are trying to catch people who are trying to deceive the public with their evil deeds, but you have arrested a lunatic and brought him into the government office. Aren't your superiors going to blame you for not doing good things? You can't live with anything."
, to have trouble with a lunatic will also damage the prestigious reputation of your imperial city's Yamen, and make people laugh, right?"
The man in green frowned and said nothing. What this man said was true. If this guy was really a madman and he caught a madman, his superiors would definitely scold him for being incompetent. It is indeed unreasonable for a majestic city commander to compete with a madman.
However, the young man in front of me was neatly dressed and had a handsome face. He was talking in the same way just now, in an organized and eloquent manner, and he didn't look like a madman at all. This man suddenly jumped out, which made people suspicious.
Lin Jue seemed to have noticed the doubts of the big man in green. He turned to a tall and beautiful woman behind him and shouted: "Madam, why don't you say a word? This is your relative over there. If it weren't for you, we would
How could such a thing happen? Your cousins and other relatives have caused misery to us. This year has been very uneasy. You should hurry up and say a few words to your nephew. Maybe he can still
Listen to your advice."
The beautiful woman promised again and again, and with a scowl on her face, she came forward and grabbed the young scholar's hand, and said: "My nephew, listen to my aunt and don't go crazy, okay? Keep your head clear and don't make things worse.
.You are making such a big fuss. You can’t just say those things, but you can’t just say those things. Who is so wicked? Why would you teach a lunatic to say those things? Isn’t this going to make him lose his head? Nephew, you can’t.
Can you teach people to save their worries?"
While the beautiful woman spoke these words earnestly, she stretched out her hand to tug the scholar's hand, and her other hand touched the upper part of the scholar's back.
The young scholar was confused. It was unreasonable for these men and women to come out of nowhere and insist on saying that he was their nephew. He opened his mouth to refute the woman's words, but suddenly he felt a pain in the back of his neck, and his whole body
The person suddenly felt dizzy and disgusted. With a loud sound, he vomited out all the snacks he had just eaten. His whole body was limp on the ground like a torn bag and he was twitching continuously.
"It's amazing, it's amazing, it's amazing now, it's even more serious. Military Master, look at this posture, he will wake up and bite others everywhere soon. How can this be good? It will be even more serious at this point.
It’s hard to recover, I’m foaming at the mouth, oh, what should I do?” Lin Jue shouted, pointing at the young scholar who was foaming at the mouth and convulsing, and beating his chest and feet.
Everyone around them left their seats one after another, and some people said in a panic: "This is madness, this is epilepsy. This madness is contagious to people. Whoever is bitten will be infected. This is terrible, hurry up, hurry up."
Lin Jue took the opportunity and said: "Everyone, please do me a favor. Don't all leave. If he wakes up, how can we control him? Don't look at him. He is very thin and very strong."
All the people who dared to stay there fled outside one after another. Lin Jue looked at the big man in green and said, "Master Jun, you have to help me. I have no choice at this point. Why don't you take him to the Yamen?"
No matter what. I can’t control it anymore.”
The big man in green clothes finally had no more doubts. The young man suddenly fell to the ground and had a convulsion. In addition, the people around him were shunned like snakes and scorpions. How could he have any doubts? He then spat and cursed: "It's bad luck, these lunatics are locked up at home, why are they running around here?"
What a joke. We don’t have time to deal with a crazy person. Since he has come to seek refuge with you, you have the responsibility to send him to see a doctor. Brothers, leave."
The man in green waved his hand, and all the soldiers in green from the Imperial City Department shouted out. Lin Jue also stretched out his hand as if praying, and shouted to their backs: "Hey, you can't ignore him. Take him to the Yamen, please."
Already."
The officials of the imperial city ignored him and walked away without looking back. Lin Juegan shouted a few times, and when he turned around, his eyes were full of cunning smiles.
The owner of the teahouse rubbed his hands and said to Lin Jue and others: "This... my nephew, please send him to the hospital quickly. If someone dies, the shop will not be able to continue opening."
Lin Jue said: "Please call a carriage. Let's go this way."
The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly and went out to call a carriage himself. Lin Jue stepped forward, picked up the unconscious and convulsing scholar, and got into the carriage.
Not long after, in a secluded alley, the scholar woke up leisurely. He found himself lying in a cold voice, and a man and two women were standing in front of him smiling. The scholar sat up in shock and asked in panic: "You guys
Who is he? What do you want to do?"
Lin Jue smiled and said: "We are not bad people, don't be afraid."
The scholar frowned and pondered, remembering what happened before he fell into coma, and glared at Lin Jue: "Who are you? Just now you pretended to be my relatives and called me a madman. You... what do you mean?"
Gao Muqing sneered from the side and said: "Brother, are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? You are lucky. If my husband hadn't come to rescue you today, you would have been arrested by the Imperial City Secretary and thrown into the Yamen, and you might not have survived.
Out."
The scholar frowned and said nothing. Lin Jue said with a smile: "Brother, don't think too much, I have offended you many times before. If I want to save you in that situation, I can only say that you are a lunatic. If I want to stand out, I can only pretend to be..."
Your relatives, make up some stories for them. The Imperial City Division is the Palace of the King of Hell. If you go in, you won't be able to get out."
The scholar frowned and said, "But why did I faint suddenly?"
Lin Jue smiled and said: "That's what my wife used. My wife has some martial arts skills. She just tapped your Yamen point. That point is one of the fatal points, but moderate strength will only make you convulse and appear crazy.
.Since I am saving you, I naturally want them to believe that you are really crazy."
The young scholar was not stupid. After thinking about it for a while, he basically understood the general outline of the matter. Then he bowed and saluted Lin Jue and the others: "Thank you three for saving me. I'll thank you Qian Xuandao."
Lin Jue returned the gift with a smile, and Bai Bing and Gao Muqing also returned the gift.
"May I ask some of you, why did you save me? We are strangers, so why did we take the risk to help?" Qian Xuandao, a young scholar, asked in confusion.
