Maoyuan is a well-known private manor at the north gate of Kyoto. Originally, Maoyuan was a theater troupe. Later, when the stage collapsed, some rich merchants converted it into a residence, which was specially rented out to wealthy gentry who came to Beijing for business. rich.
The most recent time, Maoyuan was rented by Mr. Lin, the number one grain merchant in Chongzhou. He used it to entertain his foreign friends. Boss Lin rented it for three months. Within three months, the entire Maoyuan was full of his.
Because he knew the special nature of Maoyuan, when Jing Zhaoyin swaggered and caught a murderer from Maoyuan, the people exploded.
Those who watched the excitement watched the excitement, and those who spread private rumors, before the trial started, a large crowd gathered outside the Yamen of Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, and everyone was asking, which rich businessman from other places, why did he kill someone?
Deng Tu was imprisoned under the main hall. At that time, he was not as domineering as before, he was only trembling with fright, his lips were pale and his face was blue.
Zhong Ziyu is the current tenant of Maoyuan, and Deng Tu is his guest. He will come with him out of reason. My lord must not admit that I am a Ningguo, absolutely!"
Deng Tu said in horror: "I don't know that I am a foreigner, what if they want me to go to prison and pay for my life?"
Zhong Ziyu shook his head: "Even if you are in prison, Lin will still be there to deal with your lord, but if you are a real lord, you have entered the capital of the main country without an edict. This can be suspected of being a spy, and it is the same crime as treason."
Deng Tu was so frightened that he was even more dazed. After making some decisions, he felt that Lin Yu still wanted to do business with Ning Guo and would protect himself no matter what, so he reluctantly agreed: "I will definitely not tell, but...but they want to ask me why I killed people..."
"You just bite to death and say you missed it. Don't worry, I'm here."
Deng Tu was given a reassurance pill, his face turned pale, but his heart was still uneasy.
After a while, Master Jing Zhaoyin and Hu personally presided over the trial. As soon as he came up, he slapped the gavel heavily.
Just such a small movement made Deng Tu tremble with fright. Mr. Hu was very satisfied with the effect and questioned him.
Deng Tu was not a firm-minded person at all. He was questioned repeatedly, and he could still insist on "manslaughter" at first, but after asking a few more times, he couldn't bear it anymore, and couldn't answer his words.
Zhong Ziyu kept winking at Deng Tu. Deng Tu saw it, but he was afraid and couldn't understand. In the end, he knocked on the ground and said tearfully, "I'm Uncle Ningguo, you can't arrest me." , I killed the high official of Pingguo, not you Qingyun people, even if you want to punish me, you should send me to Pingguo, you Qingyun country officials have no right to touch me!"
He couldn't speak clearly just now, but now when he confessed his identity, he was articulate.
Zhong Ziyu stared at Deng Tu with a headache, and Deng Tu looked back guiltily, not daring to look at him anymore.
Both Deng Tu and Han Tai did not have household registrations on Qingyun Country Road. They wanted to bring their subordinate countries into Qingyun Country. All the documents and arrangements were arranged by Lin Yu. Now that his identity is exposed, even if there is a secret He is suspected of being a spy, but due to his status as a relative of the Ning Kingdom, the Qingyun people may not kill him, but Lin Yu, the person who helped them smuggle, will definitely be punished for the crime of communicating with foreign countries with intent to commit crimes. This crime is a minor crime. Then people's heads will fall to the ground, and if it is serious, the whole family will be chopped off.
With his life at stake, Deng Tu couldn't care less about his personal affair with Lin Yu.
Sure enough, upon hearing the identity of the other party, Jing Zhaoyin hesitated, and turned to question Lin Yu.
Zhong Ziyu knelt down and directly denied it, saying that he didn't know that Deng Tu and Han Tai were high-ranking foreign officials at the beginning, and only thought they were ordinary foreign merchants, so he interacted with them.
Jing Zhaoyin didn't know whether he believed it, but because it involved the high-level officials of the subordinate country, he didn't dare to deal with it privately. He remanded the two of them first, saying that he would report to Shangfeng before making a decision.
In this way, Deng Tu and Zhong Ziyu went to prison together.
In the dungeon, Deng Tu and Zhong Ziyu share a room. Both of them are wearing prison uniforms. One is huddled in a corner, trembling with fear, and the other is leaning against the railing, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
After a long time, Deng Tu apologized: "I'm sorry..."
Zhong Ziyu didn't respond, he was as motionless as a mountain.
Deng Tu promised again: "If I am lucky enough to escape, I will definitely save you, Boss Lin, I..."
Zhong Ziyu suddenly burst out laughing.
Deng Tu was taken aback.
Zhong Ziyu suppressed his smile again, but still didn't speak, and continued to doze off.
Deng Tu's intuition seemed that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell. For the next time, he stopped talking to Lin Yu, just nestled in the corner, waiting anxiously.
He knew that when he was summoned again, it would be the time to prove his identity, and then he would have a chance.
After waiting like this for two full days, watching the sky outside the skylight rise and fall from dawn to dusk, Deng Tu finally couldn't take it anymore, and began to knock on the door like crazy.
"Let me out! I am Uncle Ningguo, and my sister is Empress Ningguo. You can't lock me up, let me out! Let me out!"
He yelled heart-piercingly, but what he got in exchange was the jailer's merciless reprimand and beating.
Deng Tu was beaten several times, grinning his teeth in pain. Seeing Lin Yu who was still sitting quietly next to him, he lost his temper at him: "You are going to die too, you know? If I die, you won't live either!" Maybe, you will die before me! You will die before me!"
Zhong Ziyu ate his lunch quietly, still ignoring Deng Tu.
Deng Tu's eyes were red with rage, and he went up to attack Zhong Ziyu, but there happened to be a guard patrolling him, and he beat him straight away. Won't I give you another room?"
Deng Tu jumped up immediately: "You are not allowed to change rooms, he belongs to me! Where do you want to change him? I am going to die, and he will die with me too!"
The jailer frowned at Deng Tu.
Zhong Ziyu handed the finished empty bowl to the jailer, and said calmly, "It's very good here, please trouble your lord."
Zhong Ziyu didn't want to accompany the crazy Deng Tu, but before the big event happened, he had to watch Deng Tu nearby to prevent accidents.
The guards knew Zhong Ziyu. Among the guards in this prison, there were a few who didn't know Zhong Ziyu. The other party was an old fritter who had been in prison for more than ten years.
Deng Tu was counting his fingers every day, waiting to be summoned, but he waited and waited, and waited and waited until the word "正" was engraved four times on the wall, but he still hadn't arrived.
For twenty days, Deng Tu is now on the verge of collapse. He has to make a fuss every day, and he will be beaten every day. After the beating, he will find Zhong Ziyu's troubles. The jailer came to patrol, but in the end he couldn't do anything bad, and he had to be beaten again.
If things go on like this for a long time, Deng Tu finally figured out that Lin Yu must have seduced the jailer, and that's why someone protected him. He no longer wanted to be rough on Lin Yu, and just stared at him with green eyes every day, like It's because I'm afraid that if I make a mistake, this person will collude with the jailer and leave me here alone to die.
In this way, until the twenty-first day, Deng Tu was finally summoned.
Deng Tu thought he was finally looking forward to it, and hurriedly followed him out happily, but he was not taken to the hall, but was only taken to the back hall, and then he saw a person he was very familiar with.
That man was his own son, Deng Tu's eyes widened in shock.
When Deng Tu's son saw his father, he naturally knew that he was jealous of the eunuchs of Pingguo, so he ended up like this. He was very angry. Your heart was broken, and you finally persuaded the emperor to spend 30,000 dans of food in exchange for your father. Today, you saved your father, but Ningguo will lose money and the treasury will be empty. Father knows, what will be waiting for you when you return to Ningguo?"
Deng Tu was terrified, and after listening to it for a long time, he couldn't understand what it meant. I want to chat with more like-minded people about "Bone Corruption, Forensic Crazy Concubine", follow "Youdu Literature" on WeChat, read novels, chat about life, and find a confidant~
