Wu Minu held the handle of the knife and looked at Shan Tao. He did not expect that when he was about to complete the task, he was blocked by a small patrolman.
Wu Minu wanted to laugh a little. What kind of position was a street patrol officer? A low-ranking official who was not even a military attaché dared to stand in front of a high-ranking lieutenant general like himself.
However, there were many people on the other side, and Wu Minao did not dare to draw his weapon casually.
At this time, someone had already informed Jingzhao Yin Cui Guangyuan of the situation.
Cui Guangyuan, who was in the study, heard the news that Wu Minu was stopped by Shan Tao, the street patrolman. Cui Guangyuan felt incredible.
I originally thought Shan Tao was a down-to-earth guy who was willing to work hard, so I made him a street patrolman.
This time, although Cui Guangyuan entrusted Shan Tao with the Suzaku Bridge case, it was also to find a scapegoat when the case could not be broken.
But I didn't expect this guy to be so tough and ruin things in the East Palace.
Cui Guangyuan just felt that it was a big headache. Originally, this matter was easy to handle. As long as Dong Gong took away the body with his own warrant, even if he went up to the peak to ask, he could still deny it or simply deny the warrant. It was not correct anyway.
Yamen official documents, this is a Hutu lawsuit.
But now that there is a commotion, if Cui Guangyuan comes forward to ask people from the East Palace to take away the body, then the responsibility will fall on Cui Guangyuan.
This killer!
Cui Guangyuan became even more furious when he thought of this.
But if he doesn't come forward and act like a coward, then Donggong will definitely not accept his surrender. The previous risks will have been borne in vain, and Donggong will be offended.
Thinking of this, Cui Guangyuan even cursed Shan Tao directly.
Now that you are at the gambling table, you can only place a bet.
Cui Guangyuan called the Yamen servant and said, "Follow me to the afternoon studio!"
When Cui Guangyuan arrived at Wuzuo's room, he saw Shan Tao leading a bad guy with a knife drawn, surrounding Wu Minato and his men outside the door of Wuzuo's room.
Seeing this scene, Cui Guangyuan was even more furious.
He thought for a while and shouted: "Shan Tao! You are so brave! You dare to commit murder in Jingzhao Mansion Yamen! Put down the knife quickly!"
Shan Tao sneered, but did not put down the knife in his hand.
Since the lieutenant of the East Palace will hold Jing Zhaoyin's warrant, it means that Cui Guangyuan has been involved in this conspiracy and is standing with the East Palace.
As a player, Shan Tao naturally would not have any unrealistic illusions about Cui Guangyuan, his boss.
The opponent has already taken a side, so if you put down your weapon, you can only sit back and wait to be killed!
When he thought of this, Shan Tao held the weapon in his hand tighter.
"Cui Dayin! Before this case was solved, letting people from the East Palace take away such an important physical evidence as the corpse is a serious crime that violates the "Tang Laws and Regulations"!"
Cui Guangyuan was a scholar and had been a Jing Zhaoyin for many years, so he was naturally familiar with Tang laws and regulations.
When Cui Guangyuan heard Shan Tao recite the law, Cui Guangyuan felt his head buzzing.
Why do you, a street patrol officer, need to understand Tang law?
Aren't you just a street patrolman who maintains law and order?
Cui Guangyuan did not expect that this little street patrolman under his command would have such great ability and courage.
Wu Minao looked at Cui Guangyuan, the compulsion in his eyes was palpable.
"Shut up! You, a little street patrolman, are talking nonsense about Shangguan! Why don't you get out of the way!"
Since it was impossible to debate the law, Cui Guangyuan simply started to act rogue and directly used his position to suppress Shan Tao.
Shan Tao sneered and said: "If you want Dong Palace to take the body away, please ask Dayin to sign the official document!"
Cui Guangyuan didn't expect Shan Tao to be so difficult to deal with. If the official document was really signed, it would have to be kept for record. If the higher-ups were ultimately blamed, Cui Guangyuan would be the first person responsible.
This official document cannot be signed at all!
When he thought of this, Cui Guangyuan also had murderous intentions.
Shan Tao, a little street patrolman, is very important.
Jingzhao Mansion also controls an armed force. When Cui Guangyuan arrived just now, there were already subordinates mobilizing troops.
Soon, a group of soldiers wearing armor and holding long bows rushed in.
Now Wu Minao's eyes showed a smile. As soon as he saw these strong bows, he knew that Shan Tao and the others had lost.
Under the siege of these strong bows, it is difficult to fly even with wings!
At this moment, Shan Tao made a decisive decision and did something that everyone present did not expect.
He quickly walked up behind Wu Minao and put the blade on Wu Minao's neck.
"Who dares to come here! This guy pretended to be a general in the East Palace and deceived the governor!"
"I killed him for Cui Fuyin!"
After saying this, Shan Tao didn't waste any time and directly wiped Wu Minu's neck.
Blood spurted out from his neck. Wu Minao never expected that he would die here in such an inexplicable way.
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
The dignified Zhonglang General of the East Palace, kills whenever he says?
Cui Guangyuan was even more surprised. He didn't expect that Shan Tao was so unafraid of death that he killed the Zhonglang General of the East Palace like this?
Cui Guangyuan was extremely angry. Shan Tao killed Wu Minu. How could he explain to Dong Gong?
A desperate street patrolman killed Wu Min?
Can the people in the East Palace believe it?
They must think that Shan Tao was instigated by them!
Being blamed for no reason, Cui Guangyuan almost wanted to cry!
Kill Shan Tao!
Cui Guangyuan just had murderous intentions, but was suppressed by reason.
No, Shan Tao must be saved to make amends to the East Palace!
Cui Guangyuan was determined and prepared to have Shan Tao captured and sent to the East Palace together with the body under the Suzaku Bridge to make amends.
Suddenly, the drum sounded at Jing Zhaoyin's door.
The sound of Dongdongdong's drums shook the sky, and Cui Guangyuan was shocked.
Someone actually beat the Dengwen drum?
The Dengwen Drum is a large drum placed at the entrance of the Yamen.
When people need to redress their grievances, they can sound this drum.
However, in this era, people have to pay a price for beating the Dengwen drum. First, they must be beaten ten times with the cane before the court official will accept the lawsuit.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www. Install the latest version. 】
Since Cui Guangyuan took office as Jingzhao Yin, the drum has not sounded, so it is at this critical moment that it sounds.
However, the sound of the Dengwen drum is very loud, which will also attract people to watch. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty has laws. As long as the Dengwen drum sounds, the case must be brought to the court for trial, otherwise the censor will impeach Jing Zhaoyin.
At this critical moment, Cui Guangyuan naturally did not want to be impeached by the censor. He ordered: "Arrest Shan Tao quickly! Send him to prison and I will deal with him immediately!"
After saying this, Cui Guangyuan immediately returned to Jingzhao Mansion, changed into his official robe and ordered the government officials to ascend to the palace.
Cui Guangyuan's head was full of anger. He was about to ask the yamen servant to beat him hard and cripple the unruly man who didn't know how to beat the drum. But after he was promoted to court, a group of people crowded into the yamen lobby.
What is this? Are you here to form a group to play drums?
Cui Guangyuan looked at the people below in confusion, sounded the gavel and asked: "Who knocked the Dengwen drum!"
I saw this group of people holding their hands and saying: "Dayin, we are the ones who work together to beat the Dengwen drum. Please let Dayin be tortured together."
The leader was a scholar wearing a Confucian scholar's robe, and the sixteen people who followed him into the yamen were all young scholars.
And judging from the texture of their clothes, these were not poor people. Cui Guangyuan only felt his scalp was a little numb.
If they were ordinary civilians, they would be beaten.
But these are all scholars, and they seem to be either rich or noble. If they are disabled, they may be beaten by the Yushitai again.
Cui Guangyuan continued to ask: "Why should we beat the Dengwen drum when we have reported our names?"
I heard the leading scholar immediately say: "I am Wang Chengwei of Longyou, a descendant of the Wang family in Taiyuan, who came to Chang'an to take part in the imperial examination."
Cui Guangyuan was stunned for a moment. Wang Chengwei is now quite famous among scholars in Chang'an. Many people say that he can become a Jinshi.
"Why are you beating the Denwen drum?"
Wang Chengwei immediately said: "We are here for Miss Xin'er from Jinggongfang!"
"Xin'er?"
Many scholars nodded, and Wang Chengwei said: "It's the girl Xin'er who was killed in Jinggongfang half a month ago, and whose liver was removed!"
Cui Guangyuan chuckled.
I only heard Wang Chengwei continue to say: "Miss Xin'er is dead, and the murderer is still at large. All this is because of the inaction of Jingzhao Mansion!"
Cui Guangyuan was stunned, a group of young scholars like you actually want to stand up for a brothel girl?
Is it just a joke for the imperial court to beat the Dengwen drum? Do you no longer want an official career?
Cui Guangyuan was determined and prepared to teach these scholars a lesson.
But Wang Chengwei's next words made Cui Guangyuan feel cold.
"We were dissatisfied, so we investigated the fate ourselves and found that this girl Xin'er was closely related to the corpse dumping under the Zhuque Bridge. However, we heard that because the corpse dumping under the Zhuque Bridge involved the East Palace, the Governor was not prepared.
Checked?"
How did he know!
Cui Guangyuan looked at Wang Chengwei in surprise. He had just learned that the corpse under the Suzaku Bridge was related to the East Palace. Wasn't that what happened just now when he fell to the East Palace?
How did these scholars know this?
Someone leaked the news?
It can't be so fast!
Could it be Shan Tao?
Impossible. What relationship can a street patrolman have with these scholars?
And it’s impossible for Shan Tao to pass the news to these scholars so quickly, right?
Did they really find something?
Cui Guangyuan suddenly felt guilty.
I only heard Wang Chengwei say righteously:
"We demand that the Jingzhao Mansion conduct a thorough investigation into the fate and bring justice to the world!"
After saying this, Wang Chengwei lay down directly and said: "Please use the war!"
Cui Guangyuan is in a dilemma. If he is an ordinary scholar, he will fight.
However, the imperial examination had just ended, and if one of these scholars was selected as a Jinshi, when the imperial court published the results, it was discovered that this new Jinshi had been disabled by the Jingzhao Prefecture.
I'm afraid that I, Jing Zhaoyin, have reached the end.
But if we don't fight and these guys go out to spread the word, then our situation will be even more embarrassing.
First, he was killed by Shan Tao, a low-ranking street patrolman, who killed the general of the East Palace, and then he was forced in court by a group of officials who had just participated in the Qiu Dynasty!
