This week Ruqing…
Could it be crazy
Standing in front of the sealed Wangjiang Tower, Sun Shaozong frowned and pondered for a while, then turned around and returned.
Since the ninth day of the first lunar month, soldiers from the Governor's Palace and the Commissioner's Office have been searching everywhere.
In two days, more than a dozen wealthy households and gentry in the city were captured, and there were two or three other officials mixed in—according to Sun Shaozong's information, it seemed that they were all in charge of money and food.
This posture is not like searching for criminals, but more like taking advantage of the opportunity to make money!
But seeing that his death is imminent, what's the use of reaping these extravagant wealth
and many more!
Sun Shaozong suddenly paused and turned his head to look at the quay that had been depressed due to the ban. He saw numerous large and small ships, densely parked on the shore, the most conspicuous of which were naturally the three 'panwu warships' of the North Korean embassy.
His eyes stayed on the Panwu warship for a while, and then turned to other large ships. Although most of them were inland ships, there were not a few who could go out to sea. With a rough scan, he saw at least ten several.
And that's just as far as the eye can see...
Sun Shaozong frowned a little tighter, slowly withdrew his gaze, and walked towards the inn again.
The book does not go into details.
However, Sun Shaozong said that when he returned to the inn where he stayed, he was thinking about ordering something to eat, and asked Xiao Er to send it to the East Cross Courtyard.
A high-pitched voice shouted: "Why do you arrest me?! Although I am a fellow acquaintance of Cangzhou Prefecture, I didn't invite the lion dance team!"
Immediately, a yin and yang voice said: "Sir Xiang, I am also under orders to act. If you have any grievances, it will not be too late to shout when you arrive in the prison of Zan Si."
tsk~
The officers and soldiers of the Commissioner of Prisons and Prosecutions actually came here to arrest people!
Hearing this, it seems that Xiang Yi, the confidant of Cangzhou Prefecture, was arrested.
Although this person, Sun Shaozong, was not familiar with him, he vaguely remembered that since he came to Jinmen Mansion, he had stayed in the inn and rarely went out. Even when he went out, he always traveled with other people.
No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like the mastermind behind the scenes.
Thinking like this, Sun Shaozong simply went to the West Crossing Courtyard, and when he reached the door, he looked in, and saw that several officers and soldiers were surrounding Xiang Yi.
It turned out that it was not the soldiers of the Minister of Justice, but the personal soldiers of the Governor's Palace.
Seeing those few personal soldiers couldn't help talking, they reached out their hands and were about to tear it apart. Xiang Yi, the governor of Cangzhou Prefecture, flushed red and said angrily, "I have a clear conscience, and I have never been stabbed like some people. When it hurts, it bites like a mad dog! Why do you want to go to a prison with you?!"
These words are clearly aimed at Zhou Ruqing!
When Ge Yan heard this, his originally smiling face suddenly sank.
He stepped forward and pushed that Xiang Yi staggered, scolding in his mouth: "What are you, you dare to insult the master of Taiwan! I think that the master behind the scenes, even if it is not you, will definitely be inseparable from you. Start a relationship - someone, tie me up!"
"okay!"
Several officers and soldiers immediately untied the ropes from their waists, stepped forward and pressed Xiang Yi's shoulders, they were about to tie him up!
"Stop! I'm an official of the imperial court! I'm a dignified fifth-rank!" Xiang Yi struggled excitedly: "Without any real evidence, how dare you abuse this official?! Could it be that there is no royal law in this Jinmen mansion? !"
"Wang Fa?"
Ge Yan sneered, raised the whip in his hand, and said stingingly: "In this Jinmen mansion, our governor's mansion is Wang Fa!"
As he said that, the whip in his hand swung suddenly, and slapped it head-to-head.
Seeing that it was inevitable, Xiang Yi had to lower his head to cover his face, ready to use the Tianling cover to resist the whip.
It's just that he grinned and waited for a while, but the pain never came.
Xiang Yi looked up suspiciously, and saw that the whip was hanging in the air, tightly clenched by a fist the size of a vinegar bowl!
Looking up along the fist, a young face with Chinese characters also came into view.
Xiang Yi couldn't help but blurt out, "Sun Zhizhong?!"
It was Sun Shaozong who suddenly stopped Ge Yan.
He didn't even talk to Xiang Yi, he just sneered at Ge Yan with a sullen face: "I don't know if what you just said was your own intention or Zhou Zhitai's intention?"
Ge Yan held the whip in both hands, pulling it desperately, but in vain like a dragonfly shaking a tree.
Hearing Sun Shaozong questioned, he simply let go of the whip in embarrassment, and with a clang, he pulled out half of his waist knife, and said sarcastically: "Why, does Sun Zhizhong want to disobey the order of the Governor? If not, then give it to him quickly. I'll get out of the way, otherwise Ge Yan recognizes you, but this steel knife doesn't!"
Sun Shaozong squeezed the whip into his palm with his backhand, and waved it like he was chasing flies, saying, "Since you are also acting on orders, then you should leave first. If you don't worry about it, Mr. Xiang, I will cross-examine it."
"you… "
"What are you?"
Ge Yan just stared, but Sun Shaozong scolded him condescendingly: "This official has been ordered to help investigate this case together with Si Si, and naturally has the right to interrogate any suspect - why, do you want to disobey the order of the Governor-General?"
This move used his own way to heal his own body, but it made Ge Yan choked so badly, staring at Sun Shaozong for a while, he finally stomped his foot and greeted, "Let's go!"
Seeing that Ge Yan led people away in despair.
Only then did Xiang Yi get rid of the servant's support, shyly approached, and said a little embarrassedly: "It's really thanks to Lord Sun who speaks righteously, otherwise I'll be in the next... Sigh~ It's really chilling for the Governor to act like this. tight."
This west cross-courtyard is different from the east cross-courtyard. It is a quadrangle courtyard. There are three or four families living in it. Although they dare not approach at this time, they are all secretly spying in the corner.
Sun Shaozong hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Master Xiang, in order to avoid such a thing from happening again, why don't you move to the East Cross Hospital first, how about you live with me?"
Xiang Yi had been terrified of him at first, but now listening to his invitation, he couldn't ask for it.
While hurriedly agreeing, he couldn't help but complain in a low voice to the other acquaintances in the West Cross-Category, saying that they usually call themselves brothers, but now they don't even dare to 'interrogate'.
While they were talking, the two of them went to the East Cross Courtyard first. As for the luggage, naturally a servant was in charge of carrying it.
Seeing that there were no other people's eyes and ears around, Sun Shaozong immediately grabbed Xiang Yi and asked, "Master Xiang, how many people do you have that you can trust and do things?!"
Xiang Yi was stunned for a moment, then asked cautiously, "I don't know what Master Sun wants my people to do?"
"Naturally, it is to help me verify the inference in my heart, whether it is true or not!"
