This huge carnival gradually subsided after Qin Siyuan entered the Heavenly Prison of the Punishment Department.
The cloud left, the sky was clear, next to a courtyard next to the prison, the sun was pouring down one after another in the tree gap, people were crowded, the stench and blood filled the air, while Ning Yi was walking, he took a bucket of water to the place. fall down. With blood on his forehead, he pursed his lips and waved the hand of a servant who was skilled in medicine.
"I'm fine! Go and show them! Let them wash their bodies, especially those with injuries, don't let the filth get on the wounds!" He stepped aside, "Where are the other doctors, why haven't they come yet!"
In the huge chaos on the streets before, all kinds of things were flying around. Although these people around Ning Yi were blocked with wooden signs and even shields, they were still injured. The injuries ranged from light to serious, but the seriously injured were basically some of the Qin family's children.
At this point, there are those who are angry and those who cry, but Ning Yi can't stop. He quickly arranged various things, and when more doctors came over, he sat aside and let someone put some medicine on his forehead. In fact, compared to the tragic situation on the battlefield, this little skin injury is just a matter of Nothing more.
In the distance, passers-by pass by the street corner, take a few glances from there, but do not dare to come here. First it looks miserable, and second it smells bad.
Not long after, a guard came over, his body was soaked with water, but his eyes were still red, he walked in front of Ning Yi, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Master, I will do these things now, yes why?"
Most of the warriors who joined Zhuji came from the folk, and more or less had experienced a life of grief, but what happened in front of them. The feeling is really different. People who practice martial arts have a relatively upright temperament, and it is difficult to bear humiliation on weekdays, not to mention being thrown mud and feces after doing so many things. He asked this in a high voice. Most of the rest of the Zhuji guards also have the same idea. During the recent period, most of these people may have the past intentions in their hearts, and their ability to stay is basically out of respect for Ning Yi. After so many days in Zhuji, their livelihood and money There is no immediate need.
Ning Yi pursed his lips and stood up. Everyone's words were smaller, and the weak Qin family disciples next to them were all cheered up at this time, and some were still crying, but they stopped crying.
"You all want to ask this question." Ning Yi's answer was simple, "For the two men inside."
He pointed to the sky prison. He said calmly: "You know what they have done, and today without us, you also know what they would be like. You now have water and a doctor. Although you are not harsh to them in the prison, you do not want to be harsh. Whatever. Think about them, to be like this today in order to protect them. It's the honor of your life."
After he finished speaking, he sat next to him again, and the people around him did not speak. They just turned around after a moment and started doing what they were doing. The guard standing next to him wiped the water on his face, turned around and walked to the side to help people bandage, his footsteps and hands were much firmer.
This sentence gives people a strange feeling here, the sunlight seeps down, and the light seems to be sublimating. A wounded young man in Qin Mansion asked, "Then... what about the third grandpa? What about Uncle Shaoqian?"
"I've sent someone in to take care of it." Ning Yi sat there and comforted him. "nothing."
After a while, a group of people came over the road. It was Tie Tianying who led the team, got close, stretched out his hand to cover his nose: "It looks loyal and righteous, but it is a traitor. Have you seen what the people want? How does it feel to be a traitor? Why don't you be arrogant today? If you beat someone, I’m still wearing the shackles.” Some of his subordinates were already old Youzi, and they were provocative.
With what Ning Yi said before, everyone calmed down and looked at them with indifferent eyes. Only Zhu Biao walked in front of Tie Tianying, reached out and wiped the water on his face, stared at him for a moment, and said word by word, "If you are like this, I can hit ten."
"Okay, you and I are right, come if you want!" Tie Tianying sneered.
Zhu Biao spat out a mouthful of saliva, turned around and went back.
His character has been restrained a lot, and at the same time he knows that it is impossible to fight. There are often private fights among warriors in Beijing, but Tie Tianying, as the chief arrester, is basically banned for private fights, and it is meaningless to say too much. We will deal with it a little here. After Wenren arrives, Ning Yi will go with him to find Tang Ke, Li Gang and others, and let them respond and deal with today's affairs.
Ning Yi might be mentally prepared for the possibility that Qin Siyuan would be smeared or even paraded on the streets, but he always felt that it was still far away. Of course, some of them were not good to think about it. At this time, the cost of inciting the people was not high, but it was too difficult to stop them. If Ning Yi and others wanted to take preventive measures, they could only let the Ministry of Justice cooperate and escort Qin Siyuan back and forth as secretly as possible, but the Ministry of Justice is currently in the hands of Wang Hao. Who, Wang Qian must have participated in it.
But everyone was an official, and the matter was such a big deal that Qin Siyuan didn't even fight back, and everyone was bound to die. Li Gang, Tang Ke and others went to the court to discuss this matter, and they also had a solid foundation. And even if Zhou Zhe wanted to overthrow Qin Siyuan, he would at most be smiling in secret this time, but on the bright side, he still couldn't let the situation escalate further.
After searching for the right person, I returned to Zhuji that night. There were still a lot of things to deal with, not only the various problems in Beijing, but also the delivery of the Secret Investigation Division on a large scale. The scope of the delivery It has expanded far outside the country. This evening, there is a very good moon in Jingli.
On the same night, after leaving Bianliang, about three hundred miles south through the Grand Canal, on the Huaihe River tributary near Bozhou on Huainan Road, heavy rain was pouring down.
In the darkness, a two-story building boat was parked on the banks of the Huai River, where the river was swelled.
In the room, a young woman in a coat was working. She was filing a lot of documents. When she felt sleepy, she rubbed her forehead and glanced outside. Then open and close the door, go down the corridor of the boat, go to the kitchen to get some food, and take a walk by the way.
In the grove hundreds of meters away from the building ship, a group of people in minnows are secretly advancing. After bringing the building ship into view, someone pointed to this side and made several gestures.
After sneaking to the side of the building boat, they quickly got on the boat and rushed inside. At this time, the warriors in the building ship also discovered them.
"Who! Stop!"
"Six doors handle the case and take over the secret investigation department. I am the chief arrester Zong Feixiao! You can't stop it!"
"Stop! Come here in the middle of the night, who knows if it's a bad guy"
The blades collided a few times in the dark, and people rushed out of the cabin one after another. The young woman in the kitchen threw away the pancake in her hand and started rushing towards the second floor! She quickly returned to the room, let down the latch, and looked up at the documents piled up in the room.
"Boss, it's Zong Feixiao from the Ministry of Justice! What should I do?" someone asked outside the door.
"Stop him. Stop as long as you can!"
As she spoke, she dragged a charcoal basin, poured oil into it, and set it on fire.
After Qin Siyuan was imprisoned, the Secret Investigation Division changed hands. The leader of the imperial court was a great eunuch named Wang Chongguang. This man was the head of an intelligence agency run by the emperor. Qin Siyuan founded the Secret Investigation Division and put it on hold. Zhou Zhe was inspired and asked Wang Chongguang to set up a similar institution, not for the purpose of external. Instead, it is a court official under the control of internal monitoring.
Zhou Zhe's idea may have been an inspiration, but people's talents are high and low. Qin Siyuan was able to run the Secret Investigation Division because he had a group of like-minded friends and had enough family background. Wang Chongguang can only pull the emperor's tiger skin, and the eunuch's status is not high at this time. Although Zhou Zhe asked him to do business, the emperor did not believe in eunuchs in essence. For example, if Wang Chongguang dared to knock a bamboo pole against a certain minister, he would go to Zhou Zhe to complain if he failed. Zhou Zhe may first see through his thoughts. This intelligence organization is ultimately just a stunted yamen, and has no real power. At this time, Zhou Zhe took it out and let him take over the secret investigation. At the same time, because there are not many people, the Ministry of Punishment will transfer people to cooperate.
Ning Yi had already made up his mind to change his hands to the Secret Investigation Division, and most things went smoothly. It's just that Su Tan'er has been involved in the matter of the Secret Investigation Division, and the two have been together for a long time, and their way of thinking has also been matched. When Ning Yi started things in the north, he asked Su Tan'er to take care of the south. Su Tan'er's ship does not belong to the Secret Investigation Division. However, Zhuji's focus has shifted, and Ning Yi is inconvenient to do things that she does. The classified information now has little to do with the Secret Investigation Division. Being arbitrarily confiscated by the Ministry of Punishment, the consequences can be big or small. Ning Yi secretly arranged for various businesses, and there are many shameful ones.
As one of the chief arresters of the Criminal Department, Zong Feixiao intuitively thought that there was something tricky about the smooth delivery of the Secret Investigation Division. He was also hitting right, and he really felt Ning Yi's weakness. As soon as he entered the building, he charged forward all the way.
In the room, the little woman threw the materials into the charcoal basin, but it didn't burn quickly. There was chaos and shouting from below. She suddenly kicked the charcoal basin and then overturned a shelf by the door.
Zong Feixiao's tall figure has rushed outside the door: "Open the door! Come out!"
"Help, it's gone"
There was a shout from the door, Zong Feixiao drew his sword and slashed, and with a bang, the door panel and the latch inside were actually iron.
"Come out, open the door! Otherwise, you will be punished!" Zong Feixiao shouted, while someone on both sides rushed over to try to stop him.
In the room, the little woman stepped back and pushed the shelf next to the materials into the fire. The pieces of paper were flying, making her face red, and the flames began to lick around, and she stretched out her feet and pushed the pile of paper that fell beside her into the fire.
The sweat on her cheeks had begun to seep out, and she stared at the room, where the door was already burning. In this way, she pushed open the window, and the heat wave in the house suddenly rushed towards this side. She was shocked, and before she had time to think about it, she jumped out.
It was pouring rain outside and the river was flooding, and she jumped into the water and was swallowed by the darkness.
Someone on the boat shouted and shouted, and after a while, some people jumped into the river one after another.
Half of the ship burned in the night, and after a long time, it was wiped out by the rainstorm...
****************
On April 24th, in the Imperial City of Bianliang, in the Hall of Golden Luan, a group of people sent a letter to advise Qin Siyuan on the treatment he received the day before. However, due to the complexity of the matter, some people insisted that it was what the people wanted, and nothing could be discussed that day. However, for the escort route of Qin Siyuan's arraignment, the acquiescence of the escort can be changed. Avoid tossing the old man to death before the trial.
There were Li Gang, Tang Ke and others in it, and Ning Yi also struggled to operate it. One day, he found a carriage to take the old man to Dali Temple, but he still revealed the news. On the way back, I was blocked by a group of scholars for a while, but fortunately the carriage was sturdy and was not smashed by stones thrown by people.
After the grand hoeing activity on the 23rd day, the enthusiasm of the scholars in the city for the crusade against Qin Siyuan was already high. First, it's patriotic, and second, everyone will brag about it. Therefore, many people were waiting on the road to throw something and scold something. The sudden change of things made them quite unwilling. That night, two more Zhuji restaurants were smashed, and the place where Ning Yi lived was also smashed. Fortunately, they got the news in advance, and everyone had to go back to the previous Ning Mansion to live.
On April 25th, the sky was overcast and raining, Ning Yi found a carriage to pick up Qin Siyuan, and by the way arranged a few cars as a guise to hide people's eyes and ears. When the carriage arrived at Dali Temple, it was too late for everyone to vent, so they had to curse. When they left, several carriages returned to the punishment department in different directions. Although the genuine carriage was guarded by a jailer, Ning Yi also sent someone to act as the jailer. In the battle of wits and courage between the two sides, the man behind the scenes who incited the crowd did not show weakness. Simply scold them as lackeys on the way, and just smash the carriage.
Several groups of scholars began to riot. This time, there were not many pedestrians on the road, but the staff of Zhuji were still very embarrassed. When they returned to the small river outside Ning Mansion to gather, some people were still splashed with feces and had been washed away with water. Ning Yi and others waited for them to come back under the tree here. He was also talking to the staff next to him.
"...If it goes well, Chaoshang may allow the Chancellor of the Right to live in Dali Temple today. At that time, the situation can be slowed down. I think the trial is about to be concluded..."
"I just don't know what the punishment will be."
"Three thousand miles. It won't kill the second young master, just watch it on the way, maybe you can save your life..."
"There is also a branch of the Secret Investigation Department, which has been handed over to the Ministry of Justice..."
"Let's see... a few chief arresters of the Criminal Bureau took action, and they actually ate all the meat, but Wang Chongguang didn't catch anything. We can start from here..."
During the conversation, a staff member who had been involved in the previous incident came over soaking wet: "Master, there are such rumors outside that seriously hurt the Prime Minister. Why don't I let the storyteller tell the story."
"It's useless for now."
"It's always useful. We have a lot of storytellers under our command. Let them talk. The effect is very good. If everyone wants to promote it, then come face to face!"
"What if you arrest them all?" Ning Yi glanced at him, "I will arrest them all. People are still useful, and I can't let them go."
"Then...the right ministers were smeared like this..."
"The problem is you can't help it!"
Ning Yi said this resolutely, and the man went down. At this time, Tie Tianying led the hunter and walked towards this side quickly. Ning Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at him. This time, Tie Tianying's expression was quite different, staring at him solemnly.
A small open space next to this is adjacent to the back door of Ning Mansion, and it is also by the small river, so Ning Yi asked everyone to gather here to clean and correct. Seeing Tie Tianying coming over, he sat down beside the fence under the tree: "Tie Caitou, what's wrong? What are you going to say?"
Tie Tianying walked to the side, holding his sword in both hands: "Walk around."
"Oh, enjoy the shade? The scenery here is good, you can do it yourself."
Tie Tianying glanced at him occasionally.
He was puzzled about the purpose of the other party's visit, but he didn't say it, and Ning Yi was too lazy to make fun of himself. He sat there, confronting Tie Tianying, then stood up and walked around again, and said something innocuous to the staff next to him. At a certain moment, someone came out from the back door of Ning's residence, but it was Juan'er. She leaned over to Ning Yi from the back and handed him a crumpled piece of paper: "Uncle."
Ning Yi was still talking to his staff, so he took it over: "There will naturally be Tan Zhen over there with the Prince of Guangyang..." He glanced down, "There will be Mr. Tan..."
He took another look and picked up the note.
This time he looked at it for a long time, and the expression on his face was no longer relaxed. : "Miss her, miss her..."
Ning Yi turned around and read the content on the paper again. What happened in Bozhou in the early morning of the 24th was recorded there. Su Tan'er jumped into the water, and her whereabouts are still unknown. It rained heavily on the Huai River, and there were signs of flooding. Still searching for the whereabouts of the mistress...
Tie Tianying came over, his face was cold, and he said solemnly: "It's just a misunderstanding, Ning Yi, don't mess around."
Juaner is still crying. She stretched out her hand and pulled Lan Ningyi, and when she saw what he looked like, she was also frightened: "Uncle, Miss... She may not be okay, don't worry... Don't worry..." At the end, she couldn't help crying.
When Juaner pulled him. He raised his hand subconsciously, then took two steps back and sat on the railing.
No one has seen Ning Yi's expression at this time, and even Tie Tianying and others never thought that one day he would show the hesitant and empty feeling that belongs to a twenty-year-old young man. The surrounding Zhuji members were also a little panicked. whispering. At the back door, several people have come out. Zhu Biao carried his spear on his back, walked over here, put the spear down from behind, held it in his hand, and the tip of the spear dropped to the ground.
The gun body made a low "hum" sound.
Someone walked over and asked the person who came out, and they exchanged a few words, albeit lightly. But the people with internal strength passed through a few sentences, and most of them heard the words clearly.
"They... forced the mistress into the river... "
"Heavy rain... Floods..."
"Not yet found..."
Some people looked sad, some saw Ning Yi's expression. Silently pulled out the knife, a hunchman walked to the vicinity of the fast catchers, stood with his head bowed, and put his hand on the hilt of the two knives. There were also a few people from far and near. Or holding a long sword on the chest, or a long sword on the column. do not speak.
Ning Yi, who was sitting there, raised his head and took a short breath. Blinking his eyes, he seemed to be still digesting the contents of the note. After a while, he stood up with difficulty. Tie Tianying was not far ahead and saw him close his eyes, pursing his lips tightly, the hesitation on his face faded, but there was an undisguised look of sadness on his face.
The small square is quiet and deep, the tree trunks are knotted upward, the shade of the trees stretches, and birdsong is heard in the distance. The sound of Bianliang City is hidden behind the shade of trees and flowers and trees. It is cloudy and there is no cicada chirping in summer. . There will be no more cicadas.
Snapped. The sound of a child hitting a slingshot came, and the child ran away with a smile.
In the past few days, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion has been accompanied by Zhu Ji. After countless things, depression and grievances are not a problem. Even if people are throwing feces, everyone can only bear it. While the young man in front of him was running, no matter how difficult it was, he never let go of the burden on his shoulders. He just did things calmly and indifferently, as if he had turned himself into a machine, and everyone had a feeling that even if everything was twice as difficult. , he will continue to do so indifferently.
But at this time, someone finally slapped a slap in the face at a critical place.
Tie Tianying moved forward slowly, and every time he took a step, he seemed to be a step closer to the border of death. Even though Ning Yi in front of him had never shown any killing intent, he felt a little scalp tingling.
"Ning Yi... You dare to mess around and kill everyone..."
Ning Yi raised his hand towards him, as if he was going to do something to him, but his hand stopped in mid-air, squeezed his fist slightly, and put it down again, he heard Ning Yi's voice: "I..." He Say.
"You..." The voice was as thin as a mosquito, "...you did a great job."
After saying this, Ning Yi raised his head, his eyes seemed to be looking at him or someone else, he shook his head and nodded, and turned around: "... Nice job. Great... " He repeats so. Walking slowly towards the back door, he only squeezed the note in his hand into a ball. Juan'er followed, wiping her tears: "Uncle, uncle." Everyone didn't know what to do for a while. After Ning Yi stepped into the courtyard door, he waved his hand, as if to let everyone in with him. The crowd was still wondering, he waved again, and the crowd walked over there.
The long spear stopped trembling and lifted it up. Zhu Biao turned around with a gloomy face. The others also went to the door silently. Tie Tianying held the long sword and walked slowly forward. Ning Yi stood there with a blank face, and when the last person entered, he reached out and closed the door, but then paused.
"Tie Caitou." The voice was hoarse and low, coming from Ning Yi's throat.
"Um?"
"...If there is another head of Fang Qifo, I won't give it to you." He said in a low voice, a little tired.
Tie Tianying raised his chin, not thinking of how to answer.
The door is closed.
****************
"Sir." Youcha came over quickly.
"Are there people behind?"
"It's almost here, my lord, why should we be afraid of him, if we really dare to do it, we will..."
"You will die if you do it!" Tie Tianying's grim face suddenly turned around, and he roared.
The catchers were taken aback, Tie Tianying waved his hand: "Don't give me a good look here!"
…
In the Imperial City, Wende Hall, Zhou Zhe received the news. He looked at Wang Chongguang kneeling in front of him and wanted to lose his temper.
But then I thought about it and laughed.
"Forget it, find someone to watch him, he wants to mess up, so he has to deal with it." He said with a smile, "Hey, it's fine... Why does a husband have no wife... "
…
In Bianliang City, someone also received the news of the side door
"It's a pity..." Cai Jing sighed.
"Wives are like clothes." Tong Guan hesitated for a moment at the Guangyang County Prince's Mansion, "Keep an eye on him and see what he chooses. Besides..."
He said, "Keep an eye on Wu Rui Camp."
In the prison, Qin Siyuan was ill, and the old man was lying on the bed, watching the light seeping through the small window, it was not a sunny day, which made him a little uncomfortable.
At this time, someone handed in the day's meal and a few notes from the door, where he could still know the information every day.
The capital is like a huge machine. Every day, countless gears are moving. When a small problem occurs in one of the gears, no one can guess what the meaning is...
Click, click, click, click, click...
In the distance of people, the gears are moving. ()
