Chapter 639 Return to the Ancient Abyss Mountain in the Sky above the Moon (Part 1)(1/2)
This huge carnival was gradually calmed down after Qin Siyuan entered the Tianzhu of the Ministry of Justice.
The clouds left and the sky cleared. Next to a courtyard next to the Tianzhu, the sunlight shone in the gaps of trees, the figures were crowded, and the smell of stench and blood were spreading. Ning Yi was walking, and he poured a bucket of water on his body. He had blood on his forehead, pursed his lips tightly, and waved the hand of a servant who was good at medical skills.
"I'm fine! Go and show them! Let them rush their bodies, especially those with wounds, so that they can't let the filth touch the wound!" He walked aside, "Why haven't the other doctors come yet!"
In the huge chaos on the street, all kinds of things flew around him. Although these people around Ning Yi took wooden signs or even shields to block them, they still suffered some injuries. The injuries were minor and serious, but the seriously injured were basically some of the children of the Qin family.
When things developed to this point, there were some resentful people and some crying people, but Ning Yi couldn't stop. He quickly arranged various things, and when more doctors came, he sat aside and asked someone to apply some medicine to his forehead. In fact, compared to the tragic tragedy on the battlefield, this small skin injury was nothing.
From a distance, passers-by passed by the corner of the street and looked at it for a few times, but they didn't dare to come here. First, it looked too miserable, but second, it was very smelly.
Not long after, a guard came over. His body was soaked with water, but his eyes were still red. He walked to Ning Yi, hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Boss, why are we doing these things now?"
Most of the warriors who joined the Zhuji are from the people, and have more or less experienced a frustrated life, but the things in front of them give people a different feeling. People who practice martial arts are relatively straightforward and cannot bear humiliation on weekdays, let alone after doing so many things, they are thrown into mud and thrown into feces. When he asked this, his voice was quite high. Most of the other Zhuji guards also had this idea. Recently, most of these people may have thoughts of the past in their hearts. Being able to stay is basically due to respect for Ning Yi. After Zhuji for so many days, there is no urgent need for livelihood and money.
Ning Yi stood up with his lips pursed. Everyone's words were a little smaller. The already weak Qin family members beside him were cheering up at this time. Some were still crying, but stopped crying.
"You all want to ask this question." Ning Yi's answer was simple, "For the two men inside."
He pointed to the Tianzhu and said calmly: "You know what they have done. You know what they will become without us today. You also know what they will become. You have water and doctors now. Although you are not harsh on them in the Tianzhu, you don't want anything. Think about them, it is your lifelong honor to be able to become like this in order to protect them."
After he finished speaking, he sat down next to him again, and everyone around him did not speak. They turned around and started doing things in their hands after a moment. The guard standing next to him wiped the water from his face, turned around and walked to the side to bandage the people, their steps and hands were much more determined.
This sentence gives people a strange feeling here. The sunlight seeps down, and the light seems to be sublimating. An injured young man from the Qin family asked next to him: "Then... what should I do with the third grandfather? What should I do with Uncle Shaoqian?"
"I have sent someone to do some things." Ning Yi sat there and comforted him. "It's okay."
After a while, a team of people came over the other side of the road. It was led by Tie Tianying, who approached and reached out to cover his nose: "It seems loyal and righteous, but it is actually a traitor. The people's will, have you seen it? Is it good to be a traitor dog? Why don't you beat people up today? I'm carrying all my shackles." Some of his subordinates were old men, and they were provoking like this.
With Ning Yi's previous words, everyone calmed down and looked at them with cold eyes. Only Zhu Biao walked to Tie Tianying, reached out to wipe the water on his face, glared at him for a moment, and said word by word: "If you are like this, I can beat ten."
"Okay, I'll let you and I'll do it right, come if I have the guts!" Tie Tianying sneered.
Zhu Biao spat, turned around and went back.
His character has been much restrained, and he also knows that it is impossible to fight. Warriors in Beijing often have private fights, but as the chief constable, Tie Tianying is basically banned if he wants private fights. It is meaningless to say too much. Let's deal with it here. After Wenren comes, Ning Yi went with him to find Tang Ke, Li Gang and others, and let them deal with today's affairs.
Ning Yi may be mentally prepared for the possibility that Qin Siyuan would be slandered or even paraded in the streets, but he always felt that it was still far away. Of course, some people were not easy to think about this matter. The cost of inciting the people at this time is not high, but it is too difficult to block it. Ning Yi and others have to take action to prevent it. They can only let the Ministry of Justice cooperate and try to secretly pick up and drop Qin Siyuan back and forth. However, the Ministry of Justice is currently in the hands of Wang Fu. This guy is famously ignorant, short-sighted and vindictive. Not to mention who the mastermind is this matter, Wang Fu must have been involved in it.
But everyone is an official, and the matter is so big that Qin Siyuan doesn't even fight back. Everyone will definitely die. Li Gang, Tang Ke and others will come to the court to discuss this matter, and they have a foundation to gain a foothold. Even if Zhou Zhe wants to defeat Qin Siyuan, at most, he will smile secretly this time, and on the outside, he will not be able to further expand the situation.
After finding the person I should find, I returned to Zhuji that night, and there were still a lot of things to deal with. Not only were the various problems in Beijing, but the delivery of the Secret Investigation Department was also underway on a large scale, and the scope of the delivery had expanded far away. That night, there was a good moon in Beijing.
On the same night, I left Bianliang and went south about 300 miles through the Grand Canal. On the tributary of the Huaihe River near Bozhou on Huainan Road, heavy rain was pouring down.
In the dark, a two-story building boat was parked on the banks of the Huai River where the river suddenly surged. It was already early in the morning, and the lights on the several rooms on the boat were not turned off.
In the room, a young woman in a coat was working. She was filing a lot of information. When she felt sleepy, she rubbed her forehead and looked outside. Then she opened and closed the door, went down from the carriage on the boat, went to the kitchen to get some food, and took a walk.
In the woods hundreds of meters away from the tower ship, a group of people wearing straw raincoats were moving forward secretly. After taking the tower ship into view, someone pointed at this side and made several gestures.
After sneaking secretly to the side of the tower ship, they quickly got on the ship and rushed inside. At this time, the warriors in the tower ship also discovered them.
"Who! Stop!"
"Six Gate handles the case and takes over the Secret Investigation Department. I am the chief arrest of Zong Feixiao! You cannot obstruct you."
"Stop! You come over in the middle of the night, who knows if it's a bad person?"
The blade collided a few times in the dark, and someone rushed out of the cabin one after another. The young woman in the kitchen threw away the cakes in her hands and began to rush to the second floor quickly! She quickly returned to the room, put down the door bolt, and raised her eyes to look at the information piled in the room.
"The boss lady, it's Zong Feixiao of the Ministry of Justice! What should I do?" someone asked outside the door.
"Stop him. How long can you stop him!"
While saying that, she dragged her through a charcoal basin, poured oil into it, and lit the fire.
After Qin Siyuan was imprisoned, the secret investigation department changed hands. The leader of the court was a large eunuch named Wang Chongguang. This man was the head of an intelligence agency run by the emperor. After Qin Siyuan founded the secret investigation department, he put it aside. Zhou Zhe was inspired to ask Wang Chongguang to start the same agency, not to externally monitor the court officials under his command.
Zhou Zhe's idea may have been a sudden idea, but human talents are high and low. Qin Siyuan was able to run the Secret Investigation Department because he had a group of like-minded friends around him and had enough family background. Wang Chongguang could only pull the emperor's skin, and the eunuch was not at the high level at this time. Although Zhou Zhe asked him to do things, the emperor essentially did not believe in eunuchs. For example, if Wang Chongguang dared to knock a bamboo pole on a minister, he would go to Zhou Zhe to complain after he failed. Zhou Zhe might first see through his ideas. This intelligence organization was ultimately just a maldeveloped small yamen and had no real power. Only then did Zhou Zhe take it out and let him take over the inheritance of the Secret Investigation Department. At the same time, because there were not many people, the Ministry of Justice transferred people to cooperate.
Ning Yi had already done his idea of replacing the Secret Investigation Department at this time, and most of the things went smoothly. However, Su Tan'er also interfered with the matters of the Secret Investigation Department for a long time, and his thinking styles were already co-starred. When Ning Yi started to do things in the north, he asked Su Tan'er to take care of the south. Su Tan'er's ship did not belong to the Secret Investigation Department, but the center of gravity of the Zhuji was shifting, and she was doing the things that Ning Yi was inconvenient to do. Now the classified information has little to do with the Secret Investigation Department, but if it was confiscated by the Ministry of Justice, the consequences could be big or small. Ning Yi secretly made arrangements and various businesses were too shameful, and he was taken as a handle.
As one of the chief chief of the Ministry of Justice, Zong Feixiao intuitively thought there was something wrong with the smooth delivery of the Secret Investigation Department. After checking it twice, he found that Su Tan'er was staying here, which must have been a scheming. He was also in a misstep and indeed touched Ning Yi's weakness. As soon as he entered the building boat, he charged forward all the way.
In the room, the little woman threw the information into the charcoal basin, but it was not fast enough. The chaos and shouts below came. She suddenly kicked the charcoal basin and then overturned a shelf by the door.
Zong Feixiao's tall figure had already rushed out of the door: "Open the door! Come out!"
"Help, I'm leaving."
A shout came from the door. Zong Feixiao drew his sword and slashed it. With a sound of shock, the door panel and the door bolt inside were actually iron.
"Come out and open the door! Otherwise, the law will be done to you!" Zong Feixiao shouted, and at the same time, someone rushed over from both sides to try to stop him.
In the room, the little woman stepped back and pushed the shelf where the information was placed next to her into the fire. The paper was flying, and her face turned red. The flames began to lick around her. She stretched out her feet and pushed the pile of paper that fell beside her into the fire.
Sweat on her cheeks had begun to seep out. She stared at the room and the door had already started to burn. In this way, she pushed open the window and the heat wave in the room suddenly rushed toward this side. She was shocked and had no time to think about it, so she jumped out outside.
It was raining outside and the river was flooding. She jumped into the water and was swallowed by the darkness.
Someone on the boat shouted and shouted, and soon after, someone jumped into the river one after another.
Half of the ship was burning in the night, and it was destroyed by the heavy rain for a long time...
***************
On April 24th, in the imperial city of Bianliang and the Golden Palace, a group of people wrote letters to advise Qin Siyuan about the treatment he had received the day before, but due to the complicated matters, some people insisted that this was the will of the people and could not discuss any results on this day. However, for the escort route of Qin Siyuan's interrogation, the escort can be changed. It is not possible to avoid torture the old man to death before the trial.
With Li Gang, Tang Ke and others in it, Ning Yi also had a hard time running it. That day, he found a carriage to take the old man to Dali Temple, but the news was revealed later. On the way back, he was blocked by a group of scholars for a while, but fortunately the carriage was strong and not smashed by the stones thrown out.
After the grand anti-traitor activity that day, the city's scholars' enthusiasm for Qin Siyuan's attack on Qin Siyuan has increased. First, it was patriotism, and second, everyone would boast. Therefore, many people were waiting on the road to throw something and curse something. The sudden change of things made them quite unwilling to accept it. That night, two more Zhuji restaurants were smashed, and Ning Yi's residence was also smashed. Fortunately, they got the news in advance, so everyone had to turn back to the previous Ning Mansion to live.
On April 25, it was cloudy and rainy. Ning Yi found a carriage to pick up Qin Siyuan, and arranged several cars as a guise to cover up. When the carriage arrived at Dali Temple, it was too late for everyone to vent, so they had to curse. When they left, several carriages returned to the Ministry of Justice in different directions. Although the authentic carriages were escorted by the jailer, Ning Yi also sent someone to play the role of the jailer. In the battle between the two sides, the person behind the incitement of the crowd was not outdone. He simply scolded them as lackeys on the way, and just smashed the carriages.
Several groups of scholars began to riot, and there were not many pedestrians on the road this time, but the group of friends from Zhuji were still extremely embarrassed. When they returned to the small river outside Ning Mansion, some people were still splashed with feces and had already washed away with water. Ning Yi and others were waiting for them to come back under the trees here. They also talked to the staff next to them.
"...If it goes well, the right minister may be allowed to live in Dali Temple today. At that time, the situation can be slowed down. I think it is about to be concluded..."
"I just don't know what the punishment is."
"It's not like killing the Second Young Master after three thousand miles. You may be able to save your life..."
"There is another branch of the Secret Investigation Department, which has been handed over to the Ministry of Justice..."
"Let me see... several general arrests from the Ministry of Justice took action, but they actually ate all the meat. Wang Chongguang didn't get anything. We can start from here..."
While speaking, an aide who was involved in the previous incident came over soaked: "The boss, the boss is so rumored outside that seriously hurt the right prime minister. Why don't we let the storyteller tell the story?"
“It’s useless for the time being.”
"It's always useful. If there are too many storytellers under our command, let them talk. The effect is very good. If you want to promote it, then come to the opposite direction!"
"What should I do if I arrest you all." Ning Yi glanced at him, "I will arrest you all. People are useful, I can't let it go."
"Then... let the right prime minister and the others be slandered like this..."
"The problem is that you have no way!"
Ning Yi said this firmly, and the man went down. At this time, Tie Tianying led the constable and walked towards him quickly. Ning Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at him. This time Tie Tianying's expression was quite different, and he stared at him solemnly.
A small open space next to this side is adjacent to the back door of Ning Mansion and is also by the river. Therefore, Ning Yi asked everyone to gather here to clean and correct it. Seeing the Tie Tianying coming, he sat down by the fence under the tree: "Catcher Tie, what's wrong? What are you going to say?"
Tie Tianying walked to the side, holding his sword in both hands: "Store around."
"Oh, can you enjoy the cool air? The scenery here is nice, you can take your own care."
Tie Tianying occasionally glanced at him.
He was puzzled by the purpose of the other party coming, but he didn't say it, Ning Yi was too lazy to make things boring. He sat there, confronting Tie Tianying, and after a while, he stood up and walked around, and said something unhealthy to the staff next to him. At one moment, someone came out of the back door of Ning Mansion, but it was Juan'er. She leaned against Ning Yi from behind and handed him a wrinkled piece of paper: "Son-in-law."
Ning Yi was still talking to his staff and took it over: "There will be Tan Zhen on the side of Prince Guangyang..." He looked down and said, "There will be Lord Tan..."
He glanced at it again and picked up the note.
This time he looked at it for a long time, and his expression on his face was no longer relaxed. He seemed to have froze. When he turned his head to look at Juan'er, Juan'er's face was covered with tears. She was crying, but she didn't make any sound. Only then did he arrive: "Miss, Miss, Miss..."
Ning Yi turned around and read the content on the paper again. It was recorded there. What happened in Bozhou at the early morning of 24th. Su Tan'er jumped into the water. She has been missing until now. Heavy rain in the Huai River and there are signs of flooding. She is still searching for the whereabouts of the mistress...
Tie Tianying came over, he said in a cold voice: "It's just a misunderstanding, Ning Yi, don't do anything randomly."
Juan'er was still crying. She reached out to pull Lan Ningyi. Seeing his current appearance, she was also scared: "Son-in-law, Miss... It may not be a problem, don't worry... Don't worry..." At the end of the conversation, she couldn't help crying again.
When Juan'er pulled him, he subconsciously raised his hand, then took two steps back and sat on the railing.
No one had seen Ning Yi's expression at this time, and even Tie Tianying and others had never thought that one day he would show the current confusion and empty feeling of a twenty-year-old young man. The members of the Zhuji around were also a little panicked and whispered. Several people had already walked out from the back door. Zhu Biao walked here with his spear on his back, put the spear down from behind, held it in his hand, and the tip of the spear was hanging down.
The gun body made a low "buzzing" sound.
Someone walked over and asked the person, and they exchanged a few words, although they spoke lightly. However, the people who were in charge of internal strength passed through a few words and most of them could hear their words clearly.
"They... forced the mistress into the river..."
"Heavy rain...flood..."
“Not found yet…”
Some people showed sadness in front of them, and some saw Ning Yi's expression. They pulled out the knife silently. A hunch walked to the vicinity of the detectives, lowered their heads and stood, pressing their hands on the hilt of the swords. A few people around them were either holding a long sword on their chests or holding a long sword. They didn't speak.
Ning Yi, who was sitting there, raised his head and took a short breath. He blinked his eyes, as if he was still digesting the contents of the note. After a moment, he stood up with difficulty. Tie Tianying was not far ahead. He saw him close his eyes and pursing his lips tightly. The confusion on his face faded away, but there was an unconcealed sad look on his face.
The small square is quiet and deep, with twisted trunks upwards, and the shade is stretched out. The sound of birds coming from afar. The sound of Bianliang City is hidden behind the shade and flowers. It is cloudy and there is no cicadas singing in summer. There will be no cicadas singing again.
The sound of a child playing a slingshot came over, and the child ran to the distance with a smile.
To be continued...
