Long Wind Crossing - Chapter 137
Liu Sanye didn’t speak, he calmed down a little, Liu Yuru reported himself to the house, and he knew Liu Yuru’s purpose.
Liu Yuru observed Liu Sanye’s expression, made a “please” gesture, and said calmly, “Sanye, please take your seat.”
Liu Sanye took a deep breath, walked to the first seat on Liu Yuru’s left, and sat down. Holding the teacup, Liu Yuru said indifferently: “Before my shipment came, I specially asked someone to come to greet the third master Liu. I gave the silver, and the third master also took it. Today’s delivery, can the third master come out? Give me an explanation?”
Liu Sanye didn’t speak, he held the knife and seemed to be thinking, Liu Yuru looked at him, and said gently: “Sanye, I don’t have much time, where are all the goods now, how to get them Come back, give me an estimate. Otherwise, the other ten stockades, I will settle accounts with them later, but you, Huming Mountain, can’t keep it tonight.”
“What are you going to do?”
Liu Sanye raised his head immediately when he heard this, Liu Yuru laughed lowly: “Sanye, don’t you think that a concubine-like woman would not dare to kill someone?”
Speaking, Liu Yuru raised her eyes to look at him, with a pair of beautiful and soft eyes, with a smile that was not a smile: “I can’t get the goods before dawn, can you try?”
Liu Sanye grabbed the armrest, gasping for breath without speaking, Liu Yuru stood up and walked towards Liu Sanye, Gu Jiusi held the sword and was always waiting to shoot, while Liu Yuru seemed to be in a leisurely court Strolling, walking in front of Third Master Liu, looking down at him and said: “Third Master, I have an idea for you, you can now give letters to those who have shared the stolen goods and let them deliver the goods to Huming Mountain. If you want to die, you can’t just die in a village in Huming Mountain, right? Think about it, if only you were dead, and your family members were still alive, would they let your family members go to those bandits who suffered from Huming Mountain’s qi on weekdays? ?”
“Third Master…”
Hearing this, the people standing in the outer hall immediately spoke up.
However, Liu Sanye still did not speak. Liu Yuru looked at him for a long time. Seeing that he was still struggling, Liu Yuru nodded and said: “I understand. I said when the bandits were so moral, Even the enemies on weekdays have to protect you, you dare not say it? Is it someone from the government who can make you so afraid of the third master Liu?”
Liu Sanye’s expression changed, Liu Yuru sat back in his seat, and continued: “I guess it is also, the government fights within itself, and uses our common people as chess pieces, Sanye, you don’t know What happened, I know very well. If you are from the government, then you have to think clearly. If you want to be a good dog today, your concubine will have to be cruel and bury you Huming Mountain. If you can Think clearly, say what you need to say, and do what you need to do, not only can I let go of what happened tonight, but I can also protect you from being dealt with by the person behind you.”
“You are a businessman,” Liu Sanye said in a cold voice, “Where did you get such a big breath?”
“I’m a businessman,” Liu Yuru said with a smile, “but a businessman who can build a caravan from Youzhou all the way to Dongdu has no support. Do you think I dare to do it?”
Liu Sanye thought about Liu Yuru’s words, but Liu Yuru had no time to spend with him, she looked at Liu Sanye and said plainly: “Sanye, I don’t have time to spend with you. , from now on, I will make dozens of calls. After ten times, people among you will stand up and report to me, and let them bring all my goods back to me. After ten times, if no one of you comes forward, I will count once. Kill one person until dawn.”
“You dare!”
Liu Sanye shouted angrily: “There are so many people, I don’t believe that you dare not leave any of them. When the time comes… when the time comes…”
“How about then?” Liu Yuru raised her eyes and looked at the third master Liu, “Who dare to trouble me? I borrowed ten courage from him, Wang Siyuan, and he didn’t dare!”
This roar shocked everyone.
Wang Siyuan is the heaven of Yongzhou, a person Wang Siyuan dares not offend, this… What kind of fairy is this?
Liu Sanye was not sure whether Liu Yuru’s words were true or not, and Liu Yuru had already started to count.
“Ten, nine, eight…”
She counted quickly, without any delay or hesitation, everyone jumped up in their hearts, feeling like a sword hanging on their heads that was about to fall at any moment.
When she counted to three, someone finally couldn’t take it anymore, knelt down suddenly, and shouted: “I’m going! Don’t kill me, I’m going!”
“Very good,” Liu Yuru looked up at the others, “Anything else?”
“Me, I’m going too!”
There were voices in the crowd one after another, Liu Yuru confirmed the identities of several people, and then asked their family members to stand up.
She selected a few wives, children and children, and then let people touch a plate of money.
Everyone’s eyes widened when they saw so much silver, Liu Yuru looked at those people and said with a smile: “You bring my goods back, I will not only let your family members, but also give You have a lot of money to send you out of Yongzhou to ensure your safety. You can rest assured.”
Having said this, those few people were stunned, and after a while, they immediately said: “Yes, we will definitely bring your goods back!”
After speaking, these people set off immediately.
Liu Sanye was sitting in the chair, he seemed to be thinking about something seriously, Liu Yuru turned around, sat in the upper seat, looked at Liu Sanye and said: “While it’s still before dawn, the third master You still have a lot of time to think about other things.”
“You… what do you want me to think?”
Liu Sanye corrected his honorific title in time, and hesitantly spoke. Liu Yuru reminded: “Think about how you will explain to the government who is behind the scenes tomorrow.”
When Liu Sanye heard this, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, Liu Yuru looked at him and continued: “I’m not talking about the Yongzhou government, but the imperial commissioner sent by the imperial court. .”
Liu Sanye was stunned for a while, he was suddenly a little flustered, he seemed to understand where Liu Yuru’s confidence came from.
Liu Yuru stopped when she clicked, no more words, Shen Ming led people to ambush outside, and soon after listening to the commotion, Liu Yuru discussed with Gu Jiusi next to him: “There should be no problem outside, right? ?”
“It’s fine.” Gu Jiusi reassured, “We have already prepared to ambush, and Amin was originally from a bandit. He is familiar with their ways, so don’t worry.”
Liu Yuru nodded when she heard Gu Jiusi’s reassurance. Before dawn, Shen Ming came in from the door with a knife, stained with blood, and said with Liu Yuru, “It’s cleaned up, come here. order.”
Liu Yuru nodded and ordered, “Tie everything up.” After that, Ji hurried out.
.
When the boat went all the way to the distance, Liu Yuru turned her head and smiled with Gu Jiusi: “Master Gu, I’m going to report to the official.”
Gu Jiusi laughed, he put his hands behind his back, looked at the girl with the morning light in front of him, his voice softened a bit: “Go, this official will uphold justice for you.”
Liu Yuru responded and turned her head. She saw Luo Zishang standing where she was. She hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, and saluted Luo Zishang, “Thank you, Lord Luo.”
Luo Zishang didn’t say more, he nodded and didn’t answer.
Gu Jiusi and Luo Zishang returned to the mansion, they changed into official uniforms, Luo Zishang continued to oversee the work on the river, Gu Jiusi rushed to the mansion, and after he arrived at the mansion, he stopped the carriage , sitting in the carriage by himself, waiting for news from Liu Yuru.
Liu Yuru **** Liu Sanye and others. There were nearly a thousand bandits in total. She had them all **** and rushed outside the mansion. So the mansion was crowded with people. When the people saw so many people, they rushed over immediately. Liu Yuru stood at the door.
Fu Baoyuan yawned early in the morning and came to the mansion. As soon as he entered the mansion, the clerk filed a complaint and said to Fu Baoyuan, “Master Fu, Mrs. Gu Shao has come to file a complaint.”
“Complaint?”
Fu Baoyuan was a little confused: “What’s the complaint?”
“Yesterday, Mrs. Gu’s goods were robbed by nearby bandits. Mrs. Gu led people to sweep the eleven villages last night and arrested them all. Now they are all tied outside. , waiting for your verdict!”
Hearing this, Fu Baoyuan opened his mouth wide and didn’t close it for a long time.
After a long time, he stammered: “Eleven… Eleven Village?”
Sweeping the eleven villages overnight, this kind of behavior is simply unseen and unheard of.
The yamen nodded and frowned: “What should I do about this? You know, those people outside,” the yamen raised his chin in the direction of Huming Mountain. Not to be provoked.”
Fu Baoyuan did not speak with a sullen face. After a while, another yamen rushed in and said, “Sir, hurry up, Madam Gu is urging people outside.”
Fu Baoyuan listened, thought for a long time, and finally said: “Go, go, what can I do? Let’s see what Mr. Wang will do.”
Speaking, Fu Baoyuan quickly put on the black gauze hat and hurried to the lobby.
Arriving in the lobby, Fu Baoyuan saw Liu Yuru standing alone, while the defendant on the other side extended all the way from the lobby to the outside without bottoming out.
“Master Fu,” Liu Yuru said in a cold voice, “The people’s daughter today will sue a total of 1,231 mountain bandits, led by Mr. Liu San of Huming Mountain, for robbing property, murdering people, and returning goods. I hope you can see clearly!”
“Oh,” Fu Baoyuan nodded and said, “Mrs Gu, the number of people you sued is too many, and the trial will not be completed in a while, so it is better to take these more than a thousand bandits into custody first, How about slowly clarifying the charges and trying them one by one?”
“Follow your instructions.”
Liu Yuru saluted without any obstruction, but at this moment, a clear male voice came from outside: “Wait!”
Fu Baoyuan was stunned, everyone turned their heads, and looked at Gu Jiusi, who was wearing a purple satin official uniform with five chapters and a goldfish bag on his waist, leading his attendants from outside.
Fu Baoyuan stepped forward immediately and saluted Gu Jiusi: “Master Gu.”
“Master Fu.” Gu Jiusi saluted and said calmly, “I’m disturbing Master Fu’s office.”
“Don’t disturb, don’t disturb,” Fu Baoyuan hurriedly smiled, “I don’t know what happened to Master Gu?”
“That’s right,” Gu Jiusi turned to look at Liu Sanye and the others next to him, Liu Sanye looked at Gu Jiusi, his expression stiffened, he obviously recognized it, this person was standing in Liu Yuru last night people behind. Gu Jiusi smiled when he saw his expression, and continued, “This official received a secret letter from someone last night, saying that there are officials in Yongzhou government that have personal interests with the bandits in Huming Mountain. Therefore, Gu feels that the case is handed over to Lord Fu for trial. It’s not right.”
Hearing this, Fu Baoyuan’s smile froze on his face, and after a while, he carefully said, “What does Master Gu mean?”
“Before he came down, His Majesty had given him the sword of the Son of Heaven, knocking out the king and beheading traitors. Since this official has received a secret letter from the people, he will naturally not ignore it. Coincidentally, there were also cases of assassination of this official before. Looking up, this official thought, since it’s all about Yongzhou officials, it’s better to investigate them together.”
“So,” Gu Jiusi looked at Fu Baoyuan and said directly, “This case will be taken over by this official.”
Fu Baoyuan stopped talking, he looked at Gu Jiusi, and after a long time, he said slowly: “Master Gu, this case involves your wife, and it is up to you to investigate and handle it, I’m afraid it is not right.”
“This case also involves Yongzhou officials,” Gu Jiusi insisted. “It would be inappropriate for Yongzhou officials to investigate.”
The two were deadlocked. After a while, Fu Baoyuan smiled reluctantly and said, “Since it’s not right, why don’t you report it to the sage, and the sage will appoint an adult to come here. What do you think?”
Gu Jiusi raised the corner of his mouth and nodded, “Good.”
Fu Baoyuan breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his sweat, turned his head and said, “Then lock up these people.”
“Wait,” Gu Jiusi raised his hand and said indifferently, “These people are taken care of by people from Yongzhou government. This official is afraid of accidents. From today onwards, the guards of the cells will be taken care of by the people of this official. “
Fu Baoyuan didn’t say anything after hearing this, Gu Jiusi turned to look at him: “Master Fu, I’m not discussing with you.”
There is a warning in these words, Fu Baoyuan heard what Gu Jiusi meant, he took a deep breath, and cupped his hands: “Yes.”
After getting the result, Gu Jiusi asked people to suppress all these people, and then sent the guards to the prison to replace the original jailer.
After doing all this, Liu Yuru and Gu Jiusi went home together, Liu Yuru couldn’t help but ask, “How soon can the officials appointed by Your Majesty arrive?”
“This news, I will send it back 800 miles expeditiously,” Gu Jiusi thought, “It will only take three days to get to the capital, and then the officials will arrive from the capital in about half a month. .”
“Aren’t you afraid of changes in the middle?”
Liu Yuru frowned, Gu Jiusi said with consideration: “As long as Liu Sanye doesn’t die, it won’t change.”
Liu Yuru nodded and stopped talking.
The jailer was replaced by Gu Jiusi’s person, and the person was in Gu Jiusi’s hands. Gu Jiusi didn’t care whether they were alive or dead, but only let Shen Ming visit them from time to time, trying to convince Third Master Liu.
Liu Sanye was in the cell. For more than half a month, the only person he had communicated with was Shen Ming. to change.
After half a month, the person assigned by Fan Xuan came over. According to the original law, Fan Xuan assigned Li Yuchang, Minister of Punishment, to come over. Li Yuchang was originally just a low-level official of the former punishment department. Because he didn’t know how to work around, he was not good at business, so after many major cases, he still failed to get promoted. However, because of his outstanding ability and uprightness, his position in the Ministry of Punishment is not high, but his status is very important. He will hand over any hard case to him to offend people. After the establishment of the new dynasty, Fan Xuan admired his integrity and directly promoted him to the minister of punishment.
This time he was sent here, Gu Jiusi understood that it was also because this case involved Liu Yuru. Fan Xuan hoped that Gu Jiusi would not be implicated to the greatest extent possible, so he specially chose such a famous deadhead. In this way, no matter what the outcome is, there will be no rumors that Gu Jiusi abused his private power to defend Liu Yuru.
On the day Li Yuchang arrived in Xingyang, the carriage went straight into the mansion, and the trial began. Gu Jiusi was still supervising the work on the river. When he returned to the mansion, he heard the news from Munan, and he was quite happy: ” Sir, Master Liu has recruited.”
Gu Jiusi raised his eyebrows, Mu Nan lowered his voice and whispered: “It’s Fu Baoyuan.”
“Fu Baoyuan?”
Gu Jiusi was quite surprised, but also felt that it was reasonable. Mu Nan knew that Gu Jiusi did not expect it to be Fu Baoyuan, so he explained in detail: “Liu Sanye gave the letter paper with the official seal of Master Fu, saying that it was because of Master Fu’s official seal that he could unite so many stockades and go to Mrs. Jie Shao together. And he also drew the appearance of Fu Cai of Shangguan’s family in Master Fu’s mansion. He didn’t even know that this was Master Fu’s butler. After drawing the person, Master Li let people recognize him and found out that it was Butler Fu.”
“What about Fu Cai?”
Gu Jiusi then asked, Mu Nan sighed: “Run!”
“Run?”
Gu Jiusi was a little surprised, Mu Nan nodded and said: “Yes, Mr. Li sent someone to go to Fu’s house to arrest people, but they found that they were gone, Fu Baoyuan said that Butler Fu recently went back to his hometown with him on leave, you said this Who can believe it? I heard that Mr. Li’s people only found out today that Fu Cai was eating a bowl of tofu brain at the entrance of Fu’s house this morning.”
Gu Jiusi didn’t speak, Mu Nan saw him thinking, and couldn’t help but ask, “Young master?”
“It’s fine.”
Gu Jiusi came back to his senses, thought about it, he said to Mu Nan, “You also quickly send more people, and make sure to get Fu Cai back.”
Mu Nan responded, then turned to find someone to give instructions.
Gu Jiusi was lying on the bed at night, he tossed and turned, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, Liu Yuru noticed that he was uneasy, and couldn’t help asking: “Jusi?”
“I’m fine,” Gu Jiusi patted her hand, “Go to sleep.”
Liu Yuru thought for a while, then she turned over, hugged Gu Jiusi from behind, and whispered, “What are you worrying about?”
“I know.”
Liu Yuru replied: “Fu Baoyuan is not a good person, there should be someone behind him. Now that he has been arrested, he will be able to find out Wang Siyuan.”
Gu Jiusi didn’t answer, Liu Yuru continued to analyze: “Wang Houchun is Wang Siyuan’s knife, the evidence for his assassination of you is almost certain, if you hand over the evidence to Li Yuchang tomorrow, Wang Houchun will be considered a waste, but It is impossible for him to bite Wang Siyuan. Even if he is for the Wang family, he will not be able to move the big tree of Wang Siyuan. As long as Wang Siyuan does not fall, Wang Houchun will be executed, which will be quite difficult. But Fu Baoyuan is different. There is no determination to keep Wang Siyuan, and if you want to move Wang Siyuan, you can only start with Fu Baoyuan.”
Gu Jiusi looked at the mosquito net without making a sound. Seeing that something was wrong with him, Liu Yuru whispered, “Jusi?”
Gu Jiusi knew that Liu Yuru was confused, he thought for a long time before slowly saying: “You say,” he hesitated, “Fu Baoyuan gave an order to the third master Liu, why do you have to put on the official seal?”
Liu Yuru was stunned for a while, Gu Jiusi continued: “Aren’t you afraid that Third Master Liu will use this as evidence to threaten him?”
As he said, he continued to analyze: “In order to get Wang Houchun’s signature, Zhao Jiu still spared a big turn, and Wang Houchun asked for a house. In the end, Wang Houchun also wrote the words on the house deed. What happened to Fu Baoyuan? So stupid, to put your official seal on the iron evidence of ordering?”
“So, you suspect that Fu Baoyuan was framed?”
Liu Yuru thought about Gu Jiusi’s words, but Gu Jiusi didn’t say anything.
For a long time, Fu Baoyuan has been fighting against them. He is very smooth, and he is Wang Siyuan.
Gu Jiusi sighed and finally said, “We’ll see again tomorrow.”
As he spoke, he hugged Liu Yuru and reassured him, “Go to sleep, I’ll talk to Master Li tomorrow.”
The two fell asleep. After dawn, Gu Jiusi changed into his official uniform and went to the government office to find Li Yuchang.
When he went, Li Yuchang was still interrogating people. After he was notified from the outside, Li Yuchang cleaned his hands and walked to the study. Gu Jiusi waited respectfully in the study. Li Yuchang met him and two People greeted each other, and then Li Yuchang asked in a calm voice, “I don’t know if Master Gu has an expensive job?”
“I have something to give to Master Li.”
Gu Jiusi said, took out the boxes of Wang Houchun that he had collected before, he pushed forward and said respectfully: “Master Li, you should know that you were assassinated on the river bank before. , here are all the materials related to this matter, you can look at it.”
Li Yuchang did not speak. He took the box and opened it, and he checked all the evidence one by one. After a while, he issued an arrest warrant directly, and the yamen said: “Let the soldiers go The palace, take Wang Houchun into custody.”
Seeing that Li Yuchang moved so quickly, Gu Jiusi felt a little calm, he thought for a while, and then said: “I don’t know about the mountain bandit case, how is the progress of Mr. Li?”
When Li Yuchang heard Gu Jiusi’s words, he thought about Gu Jiusi’s mind clearly.
“Exactly,” Gu Jiusi said decisively, “I wonder if Fu Cai has caught it?”
“Hmm.”
Li Yuchang nodded, Gu Jiusi said happily: “That’s good, can he confess?”
“Dead.”
Li Yuchang spoke out directly, Gu Jiusi’s face froze, Li Yuchang looked at Wang Houchun’s materials, and his tone was calm: “This morning, on the outskirts of the city, the hound found it and dug three feet into the ground.”
He only said the key words, but Gu Jiusi understood everything, it must be Li Yuchang who used the hound to find people, and then found Fu Cai’s body.
“When did you die?”
Gu Jiusi spoke quickly, but Li Yuchang didn’t hide it, and continued: “Last night, poisoned.”
Gu Jiusi didn’t say anything anymore, he frowned, Li Yuchang saw that he was no longer questioning, raised his head, thought about it, and then reassured: “The evidence is sufficient, it doesn’t matter, Fu Baoyuan has already detained.”
