The Golden Age Chapter 791: Wolf warding off
Qin Xiao heard the voice of Don't Drive Zhao Qing, frowned, and then looked back at Hong Ye. Hong Ye just waved his hand and turned to the back of the screen.
Qin Xiao went out and saw Zhao Qing in the yard. He hadn't spoken yet. Zhao Qing had already said, "Is Shaoqing free now? Mr. Cishi has something to ask you to come over."
Qin Xiao did not delay. As Zhao Qing arrived in the lobby, he saw several officials in the lobby. Seeing Qin Xiao coming, the provincial governor Fan Yanggang opened his mouth, but he didn’t speak yet, and the local ambassador Qiao Ruixin had already asked first. Said: "Qin Shaoqing, what clues can I ask from Lin Hong?"
Qin Xiao glanced at Qiao Ruixin without answering. He sat down in a chair before asking Fan Yang: "My lord, over there in the restaurant...?"
"The weather is hot, Hou Ye's body can't be kept like that forever." Fan Yang looked solemnly: "The old man asked Mao Zhifu to find a coffin, and temporarily put Hou Ye's body in the funeral. There are many coffins made of ancient wood in the city. It’s not difficult to find a coffin made of good nanmu. In addition, some people in the city store ice cubes, and put them in the coffin to temporarily protect the remains from decay."
"Your lord arranged it." Qin Xiao nodded.
"Qin Shaoqing, you don't have to worry about Hou's body." Qiao Ruixin stared at Qin Xiao and said, "You interrogated Lin Hong in the morning, what clues can you tell? Where is Lin Hong now?"
Qin Xiao shook his head and said indifferently: "Lin Hong refuses to admit that he has a conspiracy to rebel. He said that he knows nothing about the chaotic party, and it is difficult for me to ask for a confession from him for a while."
"Where is the other person?" Qiao Ruixin leaned forward: "Qin Shaoqing couldn't ask, so I saw him hand it to the general. I had to find a way to pry out the confession from him."
"General Joe, to interrogate the criminals, but it is not the turn of the military, and your wise army is not qualified to interrogate the criminals." Fei Xin said unceremoniously on the side.
Qiao Ruixin's face sank, and said: "It's about the cause of Lord Hou's death. Since you can't come out for the trial, you will of course have to be tried. Master Qin, where is Lin Hong? I will take him back for the trial now."
"I can't try it, naturally someone can do it." Qin Xiao smiled slightly: "I have handed him over to someone who can try to give a confession, General Qiao don't worry."
"Give it to someone?" Qiao Ruixin was startled, frowning: "Who gave it to?"
Fan Yang said roundly: "General Qiao, Qin Shaoqing is an official of the Dali Temple. If such a case occurs, Qin Shaoqing will naturally have a sense of measure. They are the yamen for investigating criminal cases. Let's not get too much inquiries about torture."
"That's not going to happen." Qiao Ruixin said immediately: "Master Governor, the wise army came to Hangzhou to counter the rebellion. The Lin family is the largest family in Hangzhou, even if it is not the leader of the chaotic party, it is also an important member of the party. He has been arrested by us, and logically speaking, he is a prisoner of the Shence Army." He glanced at Qin Xiao and sneered: "Qin Shaoqing interrogated Lin Hong from our hands. In order to cooperate with the investigation, we did not hinder him. Now you Unable to examine the confession, but sent the offender elsewhere, Master Qin, how do you explain?"
"There is nothing to explain." Qin Xiao smiled indifferently: "General Qiao seems to have forgotten that the princess is still in the south of the Yangtze River. Since we can't get the trial, we can send it to the princess for interrogation, maybe there will be a result, is it General Qiao? Think the princess is not qualified to intervene in this matter?"
Qiao Ruixin was startled, his lips moved, but
I was speechless.
"Lin Hong sent to the princess?" Fan Yang was also a little surprised.
Qin Xiao nodded slightly: "When such a big matter happened, I couldn't ask the court for instructions, so I had to report to the princess first. An Xinghou and the princess were cousins, and when they were assassinated in Hangzhou, the princess was naturally mixed with grief and anger. At this time, Lin Hong was sent there. If he really knew something, the princess would certainly have a way to pry open his mouth."
"It is extremely, extremely." Fan Yang nodded repeatedly and smiled: "It is most appropriate for the princess to investigate this case in person."
"My lord, the tracing of the assassin can't be delayed, but Hou Ye's body must be arranged as soon as possible." Qin Xiao sighed, "It's almost July. The weather is getting hotter day by day, even if there is ice to prevent the remains. Corrupt, but after a long time, the remains will still be damaged. The meaning of being an official, will the remains be sent to Kyoto as soon as possible?"
Fan Yang said: "Let you all come over today to discuss the matter. The news of Lord Hou’s assassination has not been publicized for the time being to avoid greater commotion in Hangzhou. However, if Lord Hou’s remains remain in Hangzhou The paper cannot contain the fire, and sooner or later it will be known. In addition, Hou Ye's coffin cannot be parked in the Sanhe Building forever. There is no suitable place to park Hou Ye's coffin in Hangzhou. The old man also thinks that the body should be sent back to Kyoto as soon as possible." Looking at Qiao Ruixin, he asked, "General Qiao, what do you think?"
"This matter is up to you to discuss and decide." Qiao Ruixin said.
"In fact, sending Master Hou back to Kyoto as soon as possible would be of great help to this case." Fei Xin said suddenly: "Master Hou is a noble body. Even if he passes away, his body is not accessible to anyone. According to Dali Temple According to the rules of handling cases, if a homicide occurs, the body must be examined. Perhaps some clues can be found from the scars left by the murderer. But Lord Hou is now in Hangzhou, without the permission of the state minister, those who dare not inspect." After a pause, he continued: "Excuse me for bluntly, even if you are really asked to do an autopsy, they will not see any clues from the wound."
"Master Fei makes sense." Zhao Qing also said, who has not said a word: "It is not difficult to find a post-mortem here in Hangzhou, but they can only judge how the victim died, and they have no ability to infer from the wound. Who is the murderer."
Faixin nodded and said: "That's the case. The lower officials thought that the people in the Ziyi Prison were far more aware of the various ways of the world than we are. If you want to infer the origin of the assassin from the wounds, I am afraid that only the Ziyi Prison has this. Of course, the next official is not to say that the prisoner in purple clothes will definitely be able to find out who the murderer is, but if they take an investigation, they may find out the origin of the assassin is much greater than ours. The murder of Lord Hou, the saint and the minister of the country will definitely be. Pursue the assassin at all costs, and the official believes that this case will eventually be handed over to the prisoner of the purple clothes."
Qin Xiao nodded and said: "I agree with what Master Fei said. This case is too big, and the saint should hand it over to the prisoner of purple clothes."
"In the case of the purple clothing inspection, it is natural to work **** the wounds of the remains." Fei Xin received Qin Xiao's approval, confident and solemnly said: "If the remains are delayed in Hangzhou for too long, they will be damaged if they are returned to the capital. Investigating the identity of the assassin will inevitably increase the difficulty. So the officials dare to believe that the body of Lord Hou should be returned to Kyoto, and the sooner the better."
Fan Yang nodded repeatedly.
"Since you all decided to send Hou Ye's body back to Kyoto, you would have no opinion." Qiao Ruixin said: "But you must arrange for a good **** along the way to ensure Hou Ye's safety
Return to Kyoto without any problems. "
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "General Qiao, this matter will have to work hard for you."
Qiao Ruixin was startled first, then changed his color and said: "What does Master Qin mean? Are you going to let Ben **** Master Hou back to Beijing?"
"General Qiao, it was not your escort. Is there anyone else who is more suitable than you?" Fan Yang frowned, "Hou Ye led the troops to Jiangnan this time. Isn’t it the General Qiao who led the troops to follow? Now Ye Hou is killed and escorted. Of course, Lord Hou is responsible for the burden of returning to Beijing."
"No." Qiao Ruixin flatly refused: "The Shence Army is based in Hangzhou to prevent the chaos of the party from causing trouble. At this time, he would never leave his post without authorization."
"General Qiao was wrong." Qin Xiao shook his head and said: "After Lord Hou came to Hangzhou, he arrested a large number of chaotic parties at lightning speed, and he has disrupted the chaotic party's plans, even if it is really returned. Some people are rebellious, but they can’t make trouble. In addition, the princess has transferred the loyal army, the soldiers and horses of the Hangzhou Battalion, and the defenders in the city, which are enough to maintain order in Hangzhou and ensure that the chaotic party cannot make trouble in Hangzhou. . The task of guarding Hangzhou can be given to us. General Qiao only needs to **** Hou Ye back to Beijing."
Qiao Ruixin sneered and said: "This general has not received the order to withdraw the troops, and will never transfer one soldier or one soldier."
"If General Qiao really wants to insist, we won't force it." Qin Xiao said slowly: "But the ugly thing must be said first. Today we gather together to discuss the return of Lord Hou to Kyoto, and also The choice of **** has been decided... Mr. Cishi, Zhao Biejia, do you all agree that General Qiao should **** Lord Hou’s coffin?"
"General Qiao is naturally the most suitable candidate." Fan Yang nodded and said: "Escort Lord Hou's coffin back to Beijing, General Qiao does his part."
Zhao Qing also followed: "Should the officials say that after the Shence Army entered the city, although they were vigorous and resolute, their investigations were not cautious, resulting in a large number of unjust, false and wrong cases. Fortunately, Qin Shaoqing and Fei Sicheng turned things around and did not wrong the good people. General Qiao, what your Shence army did in Hangzhou has aroused public grievances. If you continue to stay in Hangzhou, it will only make people worry. Now the situation in Hangzhou is fairly stable, and the Shence army is withdrawn, so everyone feels that the imperial court The chaotic party has been wiped out, but it will be steadfast, so at this time you withdraw, it will be beneficial to Hangzhou."
Qiao Ruixin clenched his fists and wanted to argue. Qin Xiao didn't wait for him to speak, and said: "General Qiao, you have also heard. Everyone agrees that you are still responsible for the escort. You can refuse, but in the future, Lord Hou's The body was damaged, or it was difficult to handle the case because it was not sent back to Kyoto in time. The sage and the state are to blame, don’t you say that we never thought about sending Hou Ye back to Beijing." He sighed, and said: "We have sent people to speed up. Going to Kyoto to report. After learning about the incident, the Minister of State, apart from sorrow, must be anxious to see Lord Hou for the last time. If General Qiao has to continue to delay, there is nothing we can do."
Fan Yang also sighed lightly: "Like the calf, the prime minister naturally hopes to see Lord Hou as soon as possible. However, we are not qualified to dispatch the army, let alone force General Qiao, where to go, General Qiao decides on his own." Looking at Qiao Ruixin, he said earnestly and earnestly: "General Qiao, Lord Hou’s body is in the sanhe building, and it is all protected by your people. From now on, we will not bother Lord Hou in the past, so how will Lord Hou’s body be placed? , It’s all up to you. Of course, if there is anything that needs help, even if you speak up, the old man and you all will do your best to help."
