Chapter 349: Pleasy
He Fan fled out with his men, and the journey was smoother than he thought, because the yamen were chasing guests everywhere, and the remaining few people were not the opponents of the He family's guards?
When he rushed out of the gate of Zhuangzi, He Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief and finally felt safe. Next, he hid from the Xia family and couldn't come out. Can they still go to the Minister of Justice to arrest people?
But at this moment, He Fan saw another team of people coming here.
The leader was tall and big, wearing a tight short suit, with a brand new armor on the outside, hanging a waist knife, looking majestic.
He Fan's pupils shrank, how could he recruit generals?
The troops that appeared in Bianjing must be the imperial guards.
Now there is a government office in the village and an imperial guard... He Fan's face became ugly for a moment. These people seemed to have colluded with each other and come to deal with him together?
The leading general obviously saw them and immediately pulled out the long sword on his waist.
The He family guards were so scared that they threw down the sticks in their hands.
Resisting these imperial guards would lose their lives on the spot, especially when watching a team of cavalry rushing towards them, they were full of oppression. How could ordinary people bear it?
The guards were like this, and He Fan had no intention of escaping.
He might die immediately if he escaped, and there was still a glimmer of life if he did not escape. He knelt down like those guards.
Xu Enle held the horse, and the dust raised from the horse's hooves fell on He Fan's face, making him unable to open his eyes at all.
"The person who caused trouble is in the village?" Xu En asked the yamen who reported the letter.
The yamen almost nodded: "We followed the county magistrate to check the village, and happened to find that they gathered to gambling. The county magistrate ordered them to wait for investigation. Who knew that these people openly resisted with weapons. The yamen staff of the county magistrate were injured and died inside. "
"When the county magistrate saw this, he asked us to go back to the yamen to ask for help. Fortunately, I met Lord Duzhi on the way."
It was explained clearly why Xu En came here.
Xu En said: "I am practicing the formation, which is a coincidence that I actually encountered such a thing."
"But... no official handwriting is allowed to use troops. I cannot bring people to help you in to catch the prisoners, but I can let the soldiers practice here in case there is a change. If they do something wrong..."
< br>
"Daliang Law, if there is a civil rebellion, the surrounding imperial guards can suppress them first and then report them."
He Fan's belly churned when he heard this.
The general was not allowed to send troops without authorization, so... he said he was here to practice.
Even if he did not use his troops to help the government arrest people, his momentum was enough to shock the entire village. People who are tactful dare not struggle anymore, because confronting the yamen with weapons may be treated as a civil rebellion.
This is completely finished.
He Fan fell into an ice cave, and it was impossible for anyone to escape and report the news, so they could only let others slaughter it.
He Fan was thinking, and the majestic voice of the county magistrate came from behind, saying, "Take these people who refuse to be arrested,"
After a while, He Fan was tied up and brought back to the village.
When the He family guards saw that their husband was arrested, they threw away the sticks in their hands. The guests in the yard also found soldiers coming outside the door, and they did not dare to resist anymore.
After a silence, the cry of women began to come.
It sounded particularly sad, and there were still people crying for injustice.
If the county magistrate hadn't seen them shouting wildly, they might have a moment of soft heart. Now he just sneered and ordered: "Take a lot of people in the village, money, and paper to the government office. ”
After saying that, he looked at the clerk: "Now count the silver, write it into a book, and immediately send it to the government office after it is sorted out, and then report it to the Ministry of Justice Xu Huaiyi, and said that Feng Erniang he was looking for here. As for whether Feng Erniang was Being held hostage by someone, you have to finish asking questions before talking."
He Fan widened his eyes, why did he have any affairs with the Ministry of Justice?
Who sued them for taking hostages? Could it be the Guo brothers? Although he had doubts in his heart, he did not dare to ask just this.
He could not let people know that what happened on the Bian River was related to him.
After the county magistrate finished his order, the yamen went to capture the people in the village again, but this time he did not encounter any resistance. The team of guards led by Xu En also began to practice as decently.
Xu Huaiyi and Cai Zheng looked at each other in the distance. Xu Huaiyi didn't expect it to be so smooth. Cai Zheng knew the inside story, but could not tell it, so he had to pretend to be surprised.
"It seems that everything goes smoother than we thought," Cai Zheng said. "It seems that this case will fall into your hands soon."
Xu Huaiyi had a complaint from the Guo brothers, and learned about Feng Erniang's case from Guo Xiong. Now that he found Feng Erniang, he could naturally join the case.
Because only he can explain the causes and consequences clearly, he naturally has to follow the situation to the end.
What's more, the Guo brothers who submitted the complaint and claimed that they had been plotted by others had been arrested and were arrested in prison. Xu Huaiyi could find an excuse at will to participate.
Xu Huaiyi looked at Cai Zheng: "Then let's go back to the yamen office and wait for news!" This was destined to be a big case that caused a sensation in Bianjing.
...
Kaifeng County Government Office.
After Guo Xiong and Guo Chuan were taken to prison, the prison officer took Guo Xiong directly to the torture room.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Guo Xiong was whipped twenty whips first.
The prison officer waved his arm and said, "It's still unwilling to admit it. I think you won't cry until you see the coffin."
Guo Xiong had been jammed long ago, and even if he wanted to admit it, he couldn't speak.
The prison officer naturally acted like this on purpose. As long as he tossed the Guo brothers to death, his errands would be done. As for how the Guo brothers died, no one would come to investigate.
After the whip was whipped, the prison officer took out the cloth from Guo Xiong's mouth. Guo Xiong was prepared and immediately shouted: "I am wronged, wronged, we are wronged."
"I have written a lawsuit and sued him in the yamen."
"It was someone who deliberately made us fooled, to give us the reputation of smuggling."
"Unforgivable...unforgivable..."
After Guo Xiong shouted, the ship workers who were locked up also responded.
"I'm wronged, we're wronged."
The sound of the jail fell into chaos, and the prison officers had to wave whips at more people. Guo Xiong naturally had to beat him up.
Guo Xiong was so furious that he was not panicked, but instead showed a fierce smile, which made the prisoner tremble, so his subordinates increased their strength. But no matter how he was beaten, as long as he got the opportunity, Guo Xiong still shouted "unfairly".
"Sir, will there really be any hidden information?" The civil servant in the prison couldn't help but step forward to ask.
"How could there be any hidden information? The master of the Ministry of Justice saw with his own eyes that the stolen goods were carried back, which were the best spices."
The civil servant wanted to ask more questions, but was stopped by the prison officer and said, "Preview quickly, the result will be released today."
The civil servant never thought it would be so quickly: "This...is probably inappropriate."
"What's wrong?" said the prison officer. "They said they were told, and they wanted to kill someone immediately. In short, they plead guilty sooner, so we will receive the merits sooner."
The clerk frowned and said, "I haven't asked for a confession yet."
"Confession?"
The prisoner whined to the table. The civil servant walked over and took a look. Sure enough, there were two confessions on it, just enough to sign and seal it.
