Liu Junzhi was put on trial almost at the same time. The presiding officer was Wang Dingbian, the royal guard, and he was accompanied by two Baihu who arrested Liu Junzhi. Shi Lan always had clear rewards and punishments. Now that they caught one of them, they were the only ones who had made meritorious deeds. Every time they were transferred
If you go to Wuchasi, you can get more or less benefits, so the people of Jinyiwei are still very willing to serve Wuchasi.
"Name, age, place of origin, identity?" Wang Dingbian presided over the interrogation. After seeing Liu Jun, Wang Dingbian confirmed that his two men had not arrested the wrong person.
"Fuck you!" Liu Junzhi's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and his hands were handcuffed behind his back.
"Why did you appear outside the wall today?"
"Fuck you!"
"..."
"Fuck you!"
"When you saw the suspect, was he not wearing a royal guard uniform?"
"Fuck you!" Liu Junzhi answered all questions in four words.
A member of the household couldn't help but stepped forward and kicked Liu Junzhi to the ground with his chair, then lifted him up and slapped him loudly on the left and right. Just as he was about to punch and kick him again, Wang Dingbian said
:"stop!"
After the hundred households returned to the case angrily, Liu Junzhi leaned in the corner, stared at the three people, spat out bloody phlegm, and then uttered four words: "Go to hell!"
When Baihu was about to take action again, Wang Dingbian frowned. Although the Jin Yiwei were domineering, not everyone was offended by them. He stopped him and said, "Don't punish him until you find out his identity!"
Shi Lan knocked on the note hard and said sternly: "I'm asking you what Ji Sheng was wearing when you saw him in the afternoon?"
"Sir, didn't I say that I only met Ji Sheng once? Where did I see him in the afternoon? The first one I saw was the Jin Yiwei Qianhu, who slapped me inexplicably!
"Boy, don't pretend to be confused. After being punished here, a person is considered useless. You must not know it yet, right? Your classmate who jumped over the wall has already been punished. It's not that he doesn't speak well.
It's because you two were seen talking to the two suspects a long time ago. He couldn't help but not take action." Shi Lan said with a ferocious smile: "Tell me quickly, how did you let Ji Sheng escape?"
"You guys, how could you bend the rules and wrongfully accuse good people?" He Qizhou said excitedly. He believed that Liu Junzhi was not the kind of fool who is easily fooled.
"Come here." Shi Lan clapped his hands, and an official from the Military Inspection Department came in and knelt down on one knee to salute Shi Lan.
"Tell him what you saw." Shi Lan was condescending, with a look of contempt on his face.
"Yes, sir. When I quickly tracked to the wall, I found four people talking in a small valley. Two of them were the suspects. The other two were wearing the uniforms of Tianxing Academy. I didn't know how far behind my companions were, so I didn't dare
I screamed out, fearing to scare off the enemy. Later I saw the suspects taking off their official uniforms and parting ways with the students from the Tianxing Academy, so I continued to follow the two suspects. However, the mountains and forests were dense, and they lost their target after following for more than a mile. In addition, I remember a Tianxing student.
The students of the college rolled up their official uniforms." Officials reported.
"Okay, you go down." Shi Lan waved away his subordinates, turned around and stared hard at He Qizhou's eyes and said: "He Qizhou, you and Ji Sheng are old acquaintances, far from being as simple as just meeting each other! You were indeed curious at first.
What was going on in the forest? You took your classmates and friends to check. As expected, you discovered the two fugitives Ji Sheng who were hiding in the valley. You were very smart and immediately thought of a way to manipulate the suspects. Because of the notice from the Ministry of Punishment, you knew that the two were hiding in the valley.
The teachers and students under the wall all knew that the two men might be wearing official uniforms, so they asked them to take off their official uniforms, while they listened to the movements of the pursuers, and even deliberately made noise to attract the pursuers. Then you asked your companions
Jump over the wall and run away, giving the pursuers the illusion that the suspect has escaped. Our Lord Qianhu not only saw the official uniform, but also found someone jumping over the wall and walked away. As expected, he was fooled and started a conflict with you, killing everyone on both sides.
They were attracted to each other. At this time, there was an empty space under the wall. The suspect took the opportunity to jump into the wall and escaped without a trace."
Seeing that He Qizhou was silent, Shi Lan continued: "I remember that the Ministry of Punishment asked you not to fight the suspect alone, just to find him, but you took the risk to stand in the middle and blocked a slap. This is your first
This is a flaw. In fact, you only need to shout out. Of course, the noise will not be so big and it may not attract many people, so you are deliberately taking risks. Your second flaw is that you are too gullible.
, your accomplice just recruited him after he knew he was discovered. He didn’t know the suspect, but he just did something ridiculous at your request. Now, do you have anything else to say?"
After speaking, Shi Lan seemed confident.
It was amazing. He Qizhou took a breath of air. Fortunately, the little official who was called in was vague and made He Qizhou convinced that Shi Lan was deceiving him. He could chase him so close. How could he lose him after chasing him for a mile? You know, Ji
Both Sheng and Sheng were seriously injured;
In addition, Shi Lan was obviously not sure how close the pursuers had been to Ji Sheng. He Qizhou had just separated from Ji Sheng when he noticed the movements of the pursuers not far away. If someone really discovered them and was between them and the pursuers, He Qizhou would definitely be there.
If you can detect your companions approaching behind you earlier, there is no reason not to call out;
The most important thing is that He Qizhou held the official uniform with both hands at first, but later changed to holding the official uniform with one hand when he ran to the wall. This was clearly what Wang Dingbian saw! But Shi Lan's inference was really scary
!
"Sir, the fugitive you are chasing is Ji Sheng? Isn't that elder brother just dazzled? We really just found two pieces of royal uniform." He Qizhou smiled bitterly, but he was determined in his heart. Liu Junzhi couldn't watch the performance just now.
It was unbreakable, but he didn't know that Liu Junzhi's "fuck you" had already blocked all means.
Wei Jinxian saw Shi Lan's expression getting even uglier and said in a low voice: "Sir, please torture me!"
He Qizhou shouted: "Wei Jinxian, I am the imperial examination candidate of this dynasty. I have no evidence and no evidence. How dare you use torture?" Killing the imperial examination candidate is a serious crime that can ruin the future of the dynasty. It is as taboo as imperial examination fraud.
He Qizhou's shouting made Wei Jinxian startled. Shi Lan was not afraid of torture for a primary school student, but Duan Xianjue was still here. If there was no result in the trial tonight, it would be extremely difficult for the Ministry of Punishment to ask for him tomorrow. In addition, Duan Xianjue was still here.
, experience and reason told him that He Qizhou definitely had a problem, but he could not rule out that the fact was indeed what Qi Zhou said, so he still hesitated.
"Master Shi, Master Shi!" A cry came from far outside the door of the torture room. A moment later, the iron door of the torture room was knocked, and Shi Lan said in a deep voice: "Come in."
An official from the Military Inspection Department saw that Shi Lan had a bad look on his face, but he still stepped forward timidly and whispered in his ear. After hearing this, Shi Lan stood up and said hurriedly: "Stop questioning, escort He Qizhou back to the cell, we all go first
Get out." Then he quickly walked out.
The small courtyard outside the cell was already very noisy. Two military inspectors stopped in front of an official wearing a scarlet court uniform, and tried to persuade him while retreating, with unusually humble expressions.
On top of the crimson court uniform was a crane officer. The person who came was none other than Liu Junzhi's father, Liu Yan. Liu Junzhi's mother stood beside him extremely anxiously, while four or five retinues were at war with a large group of officials from the Military Inspection Division standing in front of them.
"Why don't you get out of here quickly! I didn't know that Mr. Liu was here in person, and I missed your welcome. I forgot to forgive you." Shi Lan, who quickly walked out of the cell, found that Liu Yan had rushed into the small courtyard outside the cell, and felt cold in his heart.
Why had this giant Buddha been disturbed? After bowing deeply and saluting, he didn't wait for the "no courtesy" response from the other party, so he could only straighten up slightly in embarrassment. All the officers and soldiers of the Military Inspection Division were relieved and stepped aside one after another.
"Shi Lan, I'm here to find out what kind of serious crime my son has committed, and I need you to arrest him in public with the Imperial Guards and the Military Cha Division!" Liu Yan, who was known for his elegance, looked like he was about to explode at this moment!
"Master Liu, maybe there is a misunderstanding? We just invited a few students from the Tianxing Academy to ask questions. By the way, isn't Mu Zhi in our Wucha Yuan?" Shi Lan forced a smile on his pockmarked face.
"I - have - four - sons!" Liu Yan spoke out from between his teeth one word at a time. Obviously his body was far less tall than Shi Lan, but his momentum kept Shi Lan unsteady. Dare to stand up straight.
Shi Lan suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly said: "Quick, bring out the young master invited from the south gate of the outer city and see if he is the young master of the Liu family!"
When Wang Ding heard the words, his face changed drastically, and he ran into the cell quickly. After a while, he supported the bruised Liu Junzhi and walked out. Liu Junzhi tried his best to open his unswollen eye, and in the light of the fire Seeing his parents, he shouted hoarsely: "Mom..."
When Mrs. Liu saw her son's body was limp, his clothes were stained with blood, and there was almost no flat spot on his face, she became so furious that she fainted.
Liu Yan hurriedly supported her, and the servants around her quickly strangled her, and then put some musk on her nose. Mrs. Liu woke up faintly, and after calling out "Master" sadly, she could no longer stand. Duan Xianjue hurriedly He gave up the chair he had been sitting on for three hours. He also insisted on waiting outside the cell, and officials moved it for him.
After settling down his wife, Liu Yan was not in a hurry to get his son back. He even waved his hand to prevent his subordinates from coming forward to check on the injury. Liu Junzhi’s slight nod made him feel relieved. However, seeing the youngest son he loved most being beaten like this He was so miserable that he could no longer hold back his anger: "You can't beat a doctor, Shi Lan! What crime did my son commit, and you want to torture him to extract a confession?"
Shi Lan looked at the two hundred households behind Wang Dingbian and Liu Junzhi. When he saw the other party secretly shaking his head, bitterness surged in his chest. This Liu Yan was the first rank of the dynasty, the second assistant in the cabinet, the official of the Ministry of Personnel, and the first person under the prince! If When it comes to the people in the court who are least willing to offend, Liu Yan can definitely be ranked in the top three.
Although his own Military Inspectorate, like the Jinyiwei, is a force directly under the emperor and is not very afraid of the prince's party, unlike the Jinyiwei who supervises all officials, the Jinyiwei is outside the Beijing inspection system, while his own Military Inspectorate is still To pass the inspection test of the Ministry of Personnel, all the previous management of the Ministry of Personnel will be in vain because of tonight's incident.
In addition, Liu Yan and other princelings cannot be treated equally. He is not only the prince's confidant, but also his majesty's confidant. Otherwise, he would not have reached such a high position at such a young age. Moreover, the other party is from an official family and is related to the royal family. His grandfather is also The mentor of the former chief minister, his influence in the court is so intricate that as long as he raises his arms, memorials to impeach him will fly like snowflakes.
He was only a third-grade lone official, and his official title was no better than that of a waiter. In the eyes of these literati, he was even more of a vicious dog. All he relied on was the emperor's trust. Once this matter was not handled well, the old emperor would Balancing the two factors, it is very likely that he will be ousted from the throne of Wucha Sikyong. At that time, the ministers who have offended him over the years will not let him go, especially the prince's party will definitely add insult to injury.
