Chen Yingliang smiled wryly, Husi Wanshan, Pang Yu and others laughed heartlessly, Old Wei stubbornly smiled while stroking his snow-white long beard, and nodded repeatedly, very satisfied with Han Shimo's just condemnation of Chen Yingliang. Seeing this scene, Dugu Zuansi, Sima Teng and Chai's father and son also realized that the situation was not good. They just wanted to ask Wei Lao stubborn and other Daxing officials why they knew Chen Yingliang, but never thought...
"Wrong! Wrong!"
Outside the crowd, the old man's cries suddenly came, and then, the heads of the people watching the people surged again. Chen Laosan, who was limping on one leg, wailed loudly, holding on to his crutches under the protection of several servants of the Weifu, He limped and rushed in, screaming for injustice, and when he got to the crowd, he knelt down to the officials of Daxing and wailed loudly: "My lord, my lords, my son is wronged, don't take him, don't Take him, what is the crime, I am willing to bear it for the young master, old slave."
"Uncle San, why are you here? Didn't I tell you to wait in the carriage?" Chen Yingliang hurriedly asked.
"My lord, I heard that you were arrested by the officials, so I hurried over here." Chen Laosan cried and explained, then kowtowed to Wei Lao stubborn and others, crying: "My lord, my lords, my son is wronged!" Ah, you can't take him, you can't catch him!"
"An immortal old thing, dare to come and disturb Wei Liu's triumphal ceremony?" Wang Feng was furious, and he would yell at Lao Chai's family with hatred: "Come here, take this old thing down for me! "
The officials of the Daxing County Yamen made promises, but when they came up to arrest people, they were kicked away by the real boss Han Shimo, and scolded: "Go away! The people are crying for injustice, and arresting people without asking for injustice. Who told you?" What did you do? Is there any law of the country? No wonder the people of Daxing have a bad opinion of our Daxing County. It turns out that it is because of you scum! Shame on Lao Tzu’s Daxing County Government!"
Kicking off his dog legs, Han Shimo also helped Chen Laosan himself, and comforted him kindly, while Sima Teng, Dugu Zhuansi and others felt that the situation was not right, and the Chai family father and son looked at each other in blank dismay, yelling in their hearts that something was wrong, but Don't understand that there is something wrong there.
The mystery was gradually revealed, and Mr. Wei asked Sima Teng and Wang Feng stubbornly and patiently: "General Sima, Wang Xiancheng, and Chen Yingliang are hateful, but at least you should be charged with arresting people, right? Tell me, what happened here?" What's the matter? This little guy, Chen Yingliang, why is he making trouble? As far as I know, this little guy, Chen Yingliang, has a sense of propriety in handling things, so he doesn't seem like someone who deliberately caused trouble?"
Although Old Wei's stubborn tone was slow and orderly, Sima Teng and Wang Feng's foreheads were sweating, Sima Teng hurriedly clasped his hands and replied: "I report to the guards to stay behind, that's how it is. His Royal Highness saw the commotion here, so he ordered his subordinates to lead a group The imperial guards came to check the situation, and found that the riot was caused by the fight between Chen Yingliang and Mr. Chai Shaochai, so the subordinate officials ordered Chen Yingliang to be taken down."
"Chen Yingliang and Young Master Chai fought?" Old Wei was stubborn and kept his composure, and asked, "Who did it first? Who first caused the riot?"
"Yes... it's Mr. Chai." No matter how courageous Sima Teng was, he didn't dare to take sides in public, let alone take sides with Chai Shao in front of the stubborn Daxingtu Emperor Wei Lao, so he had to report the truth.
"Since it was Chejun Duke's eldest son who took the initiative, this caused the riot." Elder Wei's stubborn tone became even colder, and he asked, "Then why should Chen Yingliang be arrested instead of Chai Shao?"
"Not to mention that Chen Yingliang was forced to defend himself and fight back, even if Mr. Chai was killed, it would be legal and justified!"
"Take a step back, even if the situation is urgent and it's hard to tell the truth from the fake, the two of you should take it together. Then why did you only take Chen Yingliang?!"
"Is it legal to beat Mr. Chai to death?"
While Sima Teng was tongue-tied, the sweat on his forehead was gushing out, and he replied after a long while: "The guards stay behind, Mr. Chai claimed that he was the first to arrest the important criminals of the court, and that's why he caused the disturbance first, so the next official took Chen Yingliang, but not Young Master Chai!"
"Chen Yingliang is the court's wanted criminal? When did he become the court's wanted criminal? Why doesn't this old man know?" Old Wei stubbornly asked quickly, his face getting colder and colder.
Sima Teng didn't dare to speak anymore, he just secretly went to see the Chai family father and son and Dugu Zuansi. Dugu Zuansi stood up after hesitating for a moment, and said arrogantly: "Wei stay behind, don't force General Sima, it's true, it was my relative Chai Shao who caused the riot first, in order to quickly quell the chaos, I gave false testimony for Chai Shao , Let General Sima and Wang Xiancheng only arrest Chen Yingliang, not Chai Shao. But I also want to hold the triumphant ceremony smoothly. His Royal Highness Daiwang led all the civil and military officials of Daxing out of the city. Which is more important, the guard must have his own conclusion in his mind when he stays behind and seeks the country."
"Also, I have stated in advance that Chen Yingliang is indeed a wanted criminal by the court. There are 109 squares in Daxing City, and each square has been filled with notices offering a reward for Chen Yingliang's arrest in Daxing County. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to Look, on the bulletin board outside Mingde's gate, there is still a notice that Chen Yingliang is wanted."
"Mr. Shu, you have to be responsible for saying this. Since you admit that you are deliberately partial to Mr. Chai, then the old man, as Daxing stays behind, can't stay out of it." Old Wei stubbornly sneered loudly - thinking that you think the emperor treats you alone Is there still less pressure at home? You still jumped out to make trouble, didn't you give this old man a chance to curry favor with His Majesty the Emperor
"Wei Liushou, what do you mean by that?" Dugu Zuishi realized that something was wrong—Old Wei was just trying to uphold justice? They are trying their best to lay black feet on Lao Chai's father and son!
With a heavy snort, Mr. Wei was so stubborn that he was too lazy to continue to pay attention to Dugu Zuansi, who he wanted to die, but turned to Wang Feng, and asked kindly: "Wang Xiancheng, so you are the one who issued the notice to arrest Chen Yingliang? Tell the old man , What crime did Chen Yingliang commit, why do you want him wanted?"
Wang Feng, who had long since discovered that Old Wei was stubborn and had been desperately favoring Chen Yingliang, trembled, and replied tremblingly, "Reporting to the guard to stay behind, Chen Yingliang, he is the accomplice of Yang Xuangan's traitor... a remnant."
"This little guy, Chen Yingliang, is the remnant of Yang Xuangan's traitor?" Old stubborn Wei was finally dumbfounded, and blurted out: "You really know how to fabricate charges! Who told you that Chen Yingliang is the remnant of Yang Xuangan's traitor? ?”
Old Wei was so stubborn that he even uttered the words of fabricating charges, but Wang Feng dared not say a word, trembling and quietly went to see the Chai family father and son, sweating profusely all over, but did not dare to make a sound, the Chai family father and son also had foreheads Sweat rolled on his face, and he didn't dare to make any sound.
"Mr. Chejun, Mr. Chai, it really is you." Elder Wei, who had known it for a long time, snorted heavily, and then slowly tiptoed in front of the Chai family father and son with his hands behind his back, and called out, "Mr. Chejun."
"I'm... my servant is here." Chai Shen replied tremblingly.
"Mr. Chejun, the old man wants to ask you one thing, please agree." Elder Wei said stubbornly and slowly.
"I don't dare to be an official!" Chai Shen was taken aback, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "If there is anything for the guard to stay behind, just tell the lower official."
"It's not an order, it's a plea." Old Wei shook his head stubbornly, and then waved to Chen Yingliang. Chen Yingliang understood, and hurried over. The Daxing guard next to him was not a fool. Naturally, no one dared to step forward to stop him, so he just watched helplessly. With his hands still tied behind his back, Chen Yingliang walked to Wei Xuan's side.
First, he stopped Chen Yingliang from saluting. Elder Wei stubbornly patted Chen Yingliang on the shoulder, smiled and said to Chai Shen: "Mr. Chejun, I know everything about you and him. For the sake of this little guy, Chen Yingliang, I beg you Let’s forget about your past grievances, and don’t frame and slander him as the remnant of the traitor’s accomplices. I don’t want to go into this matter any more. You should quietly write an apology form to His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Daiwang. You and your son are honest about all the nasty things Chen Yingliang did, and I beg your majesty or your highness to give you a lighter sentence."
Chai Shen and Chai Shao suddenly raised their heads together, staring at the stubborn old Wei with dumbstruck eyes. They couldn't believe that the stubborn old Wei would protect Chen Yingliang to this extent!
"You must be very strange, right? Why does this old man love Chen Yingliang so much?" Old Wei said with a stubborn smile: "I will not hide it from you, this little guy Chen Yingliang saved my life. In order to repay him, this old man is going to pay his respects to His Majesty the Emperor." In order not to affect his future career, I strongly recommend him to His Royal Highness Dai Wang. I don’t want to cause too much trouble between you and him, so that this little guy will get a bad name when he first enters the official career. So there is no way , the old man can only beg you, you can settle the matter quietly and forget it, don't make extra troubles and expand the disturbance."
Chai Shen's face turned pale, but Chai Shao's face was green and black with anger, and blurted out in anger, "Wei Liushou, for your savior, do you want to force us father and son to death?!"
Old Wei was stubborn and didn't get angry, he said slowly: "Young Master Chai, I really want your life, it's too easy, and you need to force it? Don't talk about other things, just rely on you to plant and slander Chen Yingliang as the remnant of the traitor's accomplice This one, as long as I get to the bottom of it, you father and son will not be able to escape the crime of beheading and abandoning corpses!"
Chai Shao's face also started to turn pale, and he turned to look at Chen Yingliang subconsciously, but he saw Chen Yingliang looking at him with a smile. You little thief, you are indeed a remnant of the traitor's accomplice! We have evidence!"
"Shame on your face! You want to die!" Old Wei stubbornly gritted his teeth in his heart, then stretched out his hand to Chai Shao, contemptuously beckoned with a finger, and said with a sneer: "Very well, then show the evidence, if you If the father and son can prove that Chen Yingliang is really an accomplice of the traitor, you don’t need to tell me, this old man killed Chen Yingliang himself! But if you can’t get it out, hehe!”
"There is evidence, but we can't give it to you!" Chai Shao replied with his head held high.
"Worried about the old man covering up?" Old Wei smiled stubbornly, and said, "Okay, His Majesty the Emperor will return to Daxing in a few days. At that time, the old man will lead Chen Yingliang to accompany you to His Majesty's complaint! If you can prove that Chen Yingliang You are the gang of traitors, and this old man is guilty of the same crime as him! But if it proves that you have been framed, this old man will kneel down and beg the emperor to issue an order to kill all of you!"
Of course, the Chai family and his son dared not take the threatening words that Daxingtu Emperor Wei Lao stubbornly uttered in public. Right now, the Chai family and their sons are all nervously planning, not only wanting to show evidence that Chen Yingliang is a relative of a rebel general, but also afraid of Wei Lao's stubbornness. In Daxing, he overshadowed the sky with one hand, and even the generational king Yang You was a clear-cut and stubborn old guard who followed the lead. Not only would it not be effective at that time, but it would also give Chen Yingliang a chance to clear his charges. He hesitated so much that he didn't know what to do for a while.
"Why are there so many people? What happened? Why are there so many people watching?"
To the Chai family and his son, a voice that sounded like the sound of heaven came, and the Chai family and his son turned their heads to look, and they were immediately overjoyed to see that a group of dusty men were striding towards the road separated by the Sui army's human wall. The leader was a fat middle-aged man, and a tall white-haired old man.
Seeing the two people walking in front, Chai Shen's eyes lit up immediately, because Chai Shen knew these two people, the fat middle-aged man was a celebrity in front of Emperor Sui Yang, although his official position was higher than that of Old Wei. Half-ranked, but holds the power to supervise all officials, Wei Lao is stubborn, even if he stays behind for Daxing, he still has to let him get three points. The tall, white-bearded old man has the same official position as Wei's stubbornness. He is notoriously jealous of evil and upright. He has just made great contributions to the court recently. His promotion again is just around the corner. He can completely restrain the arrogant Wei's stubbornness!
"It's a gamble!" Chai Shen quietly gritted his teeth, and said in his heart: "Old Wei stubbornness has already made it clear that the chariots and horses are going to fight this old man to the death! Instead of binding your hands and binding them, it is better to fight for life! Just hug these two people With thick thighs, Chen Yingliang, the little thief, can definitely be charged as a traitor accomplice! Anyway, Wei Lao stubbornly lost his troops and almost wiped out the entire army this time when he aided Luoyang in the east. Offended him to death, with these two thick thighs to hug, plus the support of his in-laws, this old man may not need to be afraid of Wei's stubbornness!"
Having made up his mind, Chai Shen didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately pulled his son up to meet the rescue team that descended from the sky. Together with his son, he bowed to his head from a distance, and said respectfully: "Your officer, Chai Shen, I have met Dr. Pei! See you!" Guo Fan stayed behind! I have seen you, my lords!"
Another grasshopper, Dugu Zhuansi, who was unfortunately tied to a piece of straw with Lao Chai's family, also went up to salute, and then was extremely pleasantly surprised to find that behind the fat middle-aged man and the tall old man, his clan uncle was actually following him — General Youwuwei Dugu Sheng! After hastily saluting, Dugu Zhuansi recognized another acquaintance, and hurriedly saluted a middle-aged man next to Dugu Sheng, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, I didn't expect you to come to Daxing, you are a rare visitor."
