The Golden Age Chapter 56: By the east wind

The night is faint, Wei Bi sits by the window with a book in his hand, and looks at the courtyard outside the window from time to time.

The courtyard is clean and quiet.

Today's lobby trial, Wei Bi can be regarded as the winner, and Dali Temple has not caught any handle.

But Wei Bi knew very well that since Qin Xiao left himself at Dali Temple, the case would not be concluded smoothly.

He really didn't expect that Wei Cheng, who he trusted the most, would actually bite him back. If it weren't for being careful about what he did, he would fall into Wei Cheng's hands this time.

It’s just that he really didn’t understand why Wei Cheng would betray himself?

If you really want to bring yourself down, what good will it do for Wei Cheng? He was puzzled.

However, he knew very well in his heart that in this case, he didn't hold the handle in Wei Cheng's hands. As long as he was killed and innocent and Dali Temple could not produce evidence, then he couldn't help himself.

He only hopes that within these two days, nothing else will happen.

Suddenly heard a burst of laughter, Wei Bi immediately got up, threw away the book, closed the window, leaving only a gap, and looked at the courtyard through the gap. Soon, he saw two figures appearing from the corridor. One of them was Qin Xiao, and the other was fat. He looked carefully, and his heart sank, but he recognized that the fat man was actually Zhu Dongshan, the officer of the criminal ministry.

There are many officials in the court, and Wei Bi naturally cannot know everyone, but this Zhu Shilang is the existence of the Criminal Ministry second only to the blood Hades Lu Junzhong. He is a man in Kyoto, and Wei Bi is naturally impossible not to know .

Seeing Zhu Dongshan, Wei Bi's heart sank.

Qin Xiao was very polite to Zhu Dongshan, talking and laughing, and led Zhu Dongshan into a room. When Qin Xiao closed the door, he even looked around.

Wei Bi naturally knew that at this time, Zhu Dongshan suddenly came to Dali Temple. In all likelihood, he came because of his own case.

He is not afraid of Dali Temple, but the Xing Department, who is so disgusted by everyone, is afraid in his heart, knowing that Zhu Dongshan must come here at this time.

Although he was stayed in Dali Temple, there is no evidence to prove that he is the mastermind in Dali Temple. After all, he is also a Wupinsi Cheng, so the treatment here is not bad. In addition to arranging himself to rest in this secluded courtyard, his meals are also in accordance with The standard hospitality of Wupin officials.

There are not too many idlers in this courtyard, only two torture guards outside the courtyard.

When Wei Bi saw the lights on in the room, he was already in a panic when he was still calm.

He paced back and forth in the room with his hands on his back. After all, he gritted his teeth, and then gently opened the door to make sure that there was no one else in the courtyard. Only then, under the cover of the night, he approached Qin Xiao's house gently with his feet. .

Qin Xiao has invited Zhu Dongshan to take a seat at this time. Zhu Dongshan seems to be unclear about what Qin Xiao intends to do. He said lightly: "Master Qin, you sent someone to find me. I don't know what that means?"

"Master Zhu, Chen Langzhong from the Ministry of Criminal Justice came to dignitaries today, but I was rejected. I was worried. I specially invited you to apologize to you." Qin Xiao sighed, "I know such a case. , According to common sense, it should be transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs,

However, it is quite wrong to leave this case today. "

Zhu Dongshan probed the dust on the front of his clothes, and said blankly: "You don't need to apologize, you Dali Temple has the right to hear such cases."

"It seems that Master Zhu is still blaming me." Qin Xiao smiled bitterly: "Master Zhu, I will not hide from you. I kept this case with selfish intentions. Sage Longen favored me and promoted me to Dali Temple. I’m a newcomer, and I’m young. How can the officials of Dali Temple look down on me? If I don’t do something, I will betray the divine grace, and I won’t get mixed up in Dali Temple in the future."

Zhu Dongshan looked at Qin Xiao suspiciously, and asked: "Qin Shaoqing really thinks this way? Just to make merit?"

"If it's not for this, is it for other reasons?" Qin Xiao asked back.

Zhu Dongshan said with a smile but a smile: "Some people say that Qin Shaoqing stopped this case in order to seize power from the Criminal Ministry. It seems that this is a man-made rumor."

"Seizure of power?" Qin Xiao opened his eyes, raised his hand and pointed his finger at his chest: "Master Zhu, just rely on me?" He laughed out loudly: "Then you guys look at me too high, just rely on me. To seize the power of the Ministry of Penalty, not to mention that I don’t have this heart. Even if I really have this heart, I don’t have the courage."

"Qin Shaoqing has humbled herself." Zhu Dongshan leaned back on a chair: "You even dared to break in by Tsing Yi Tang single-handedly. I am afraid that few people can compare with such courage."

"Master Zhu misunderstood." Qin Xiao sighed, "I was worried about Lu Futang and Master Zhu misunderstanding, so I specially invited you to come over and apologize to you." Tell Lu Butang, I only handle this case at Dali Temple. No matter what case comes to my hands in the future, I will immediately transfer it to the Criminal Ministry."

Zhu Dongshan saw that Qin Xiao's expression was sincere, not as if he was false, and his face eased a lot, and he slightly nodded and said: "If this is the case, I can explain to Lu Futang. Qin Shaoqing, you have just entered Dali Temple. You still don’t know, listen to my advice, some things should be avoided if you can avoid them. Don’t make mistakes that shouldn’t be made because of your youth."

"Master Zhu pointed." Qin Xiao nodded and said: "The junior has been taught." While speaking, he cast a calm glance outside the door.

When Zhu Dongshan saw Qin Xiao claiming to be a "junior", his face suddenly became more soothed, and he smiled and said: "If you really want to handle the case, you can ask the saint to be transferred to the Criminal Department in the future. Lu Butang also appreciates you very much. , If transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, there will be a mountain of cases, and you will be able to handle any case you want." Then he asked: "How is this case done today?"

"The first time the juniors dealt with a case, I really don’t know what to do." Qin Xiao smiled bitterly: "Don’t hide your lord, today’s trial, although the housekeeper of the Weifu handed over the complaint, he just said nothing and couldn’t take out anything. Evidence, the younger generation really believes that Wei Sicheng is innocent, and Wei Cheng's haunting is only planned by Wei Cheng."

Zhu Dongshan smiled and said: "Since Wei Cheng dared to pass the testimony, Wei Bi must be the mastermind behind this matter. Otherwise, wouldn't Wei Cheng throw himself in the trap? Qin Shaoqing, I will not hide it from you. You are trying the case here. Our Criminal Department knows everything clearly."

"The Xing Department is really well-informed." Qin Xiao said with some shame: "It really made Master Zhu laugh."

"Wei Bi acted cautiously. Although he planned behind the scenes, he did not leave Wei Cheng with any handle." Zhu Dongshan looked at Qin Xiao and said: "Qin Shaoqing, to be honest, Kyoto Sanfa Division, you

Neither Dali Temple nor Kyoto Prefecture can handle this case, and only our Ministry of Criminal Justice can handle this case. "

Qin Xiao shook his head and smiled: "Master Zhu, the Ministry of Criminal Justice is a master of the case, this is natural, but forgive the younger generation to say bluntly, you don't have evidence in your hands, this case is handed over to you, and you can't handle it either." /

Zhu Dongshan smiled and said: "It seems that Qin Shaoqing still doesn't understand the Criminal Ministry. You can ask other people in Dali Temple, have you ever missed a case that the Criminal Ministry wants to handle? This is the most difficult case. They will sign and draw."

"The younger generation heard that the adults had been transferred to the Criminal Ministry, and they had done countless major cases in the past ten years." Qin Xiao said solemnly, "If you talk about the number one criminal master in the Tang Dynasty, apart from Lu Butang, there is only Lord Zhu. ."

"Qin Shaoqing's words sound comfortable, but I am afraid they are not true." Zhu Dongshan smiled faintly and said: "You invited me over today, I am afraid it is not just to apologize, whether it is because this case cannot be handled? So I want me to teach you how to handle this case?"

Qin Xiao shook his head and said: "My lord is wrong, I don't have this heart. After today's court, I already know how to determine the case. Since there is no evidence, Wei Sicheng was wronged. I turned around and judged that everything was Wei Cheng. Planning, imprison him and sentence him to punishment."

Zhu Dongshan said: "At this point, Qin Shaoqing can only do this. But the mastermind of this case must be Wei Bi. If you decide Wei Bi is not guilty, that means letting the real murderer go unpunished." Raised his hand. Fuxu said: "If this case is handed over to the Criminal Ministry, it will be another result."

"It's not that the younger generation can't believe in Lord Zhu, but if the real murderer is really Wei Sicheng, his plan will be seamless, and the Criminal Ministry will not be able to find any evidence." Qin Xiao said firmly: "It is late, and the younger generation does not I dare to stay with the adults for a long time. In order to apologize, the younger generation prepared a small gift for both Lord Zhu and Lu Butang. Please laugh at it." Cheating went over and took two scrolls and brought them to Zhu Dongshan: "These are two paintings. , Bought from the antique calligraphy and painting shop, they are also the two best calligraphy and paintings there. Master Zhu, please accept it!"

Zhu Dongshan didn't expect Qin Xiao to give himself a gift. First he was taken aback, and then he smiled: "Qin Shaoqing's kindness, I thank you on behalf of Lu Butang." He closed the scroll and didn't mean to stand up, just smiled. Looking at Qin Xiaodao: "If Qin Shaoqing wants to make this case clear, he can still transfer this case to the Criminal Ministry."

"My lord said that it was another result that was handed over to the Ministry of Justice. Forgive the younger generation to say bluntly, how this case will be heard will be the same result." Qin Xiao still insisted.

Zhu Dongshan smiled faintly and said: "Do you think Wei Bi will not confess after entering the Criminal Department? I tell you the truth, no one who enters the Criminal Department will not confess. You are really a display of the 16th branch of the Criminal Department. Nothing?"

"Kewei Temple Cheng is the imperial court commander. Without conclusive evidence, how can the punishment be used?" Qin Xiao frowned.

Zhu Dongshan sneered and said: "The imperial court orders? Compared to the Li family and Zhao Yankuo's cadre, the district Guanglu Temple Cheng is a fart. Back then, so many princes and nobles were honestly inviting confessions, signing and detaining, Wei Bi Is his bones harder than them?" Then he got up, took the two scrolls in his hands, and said proudly, "Qin Shaoqing, this is the gap between Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice. A fifth-grade official, you Dali Temple dare not use punishment. , But in my penal department, let alone five-rank officials, even princes and nobles, they have to kneel on the ground after entering the penal department’s yamen."
