Bright Spring

"Repentance?" Qin asked in a low voice.

Gao Xianning shook his head and said, "Snatch the marriage."

He paused, then continued: "This inner house is almost entirely occupied by members of the Xiao family. Outsiders are not allowed to enter the inner house casually. I have asked the soldiers of the Beisi guarding the outer courtyard. Except for Xiao Wencai's screams, Yao Fang's yelling at 'removing harm' and laughing could not be heard from outside; what's more, the Xiao family thought it was a scandal that humiliated the family, and no outsiders were allowed to come in.

That's how it happened: except for Xiao's family and Beisi soldiers who probably heard and saw the movement, they can roughly guess; no one else knows what Yao Fang did when he entered the inner house!

And the Xiao family was destined to die in the first place, and the matter involved the murder of the late emperor, so there is no room for forgiveness for such a serious crime!Those officers and men of the Northern Division were former officials of the Han Palace, and they were loyal to the Holy Majesty. As long as the matter was strictly ordered to be disclosed, most of the matter could be completely kept secret.

So we want to give everyone a result of their curiosity. The strange thing that happened today is actually a marriage robbery. "

Qin was silent.

Gao Xianning said again: "Ms. Qin has two choices now. The first is to hang herself to prove her chastity, and then her father will still be humiliated and the Qin family will still be implicated in a serious case. The second is to follow the arrangement of the official and be robbed first." Go to Yao's house, and then we'll catch this Yao Fang. Your reputation of innocence in the eyes of outsiders is still there, and the in-laws between your father and Xiao's family no longer exist."

Is Chapter 6 True?

Gao Xianning came out from the gate of Xiao's inner house. He walked along the corridor in the courtyard for a while, watching the people in the courtyard for a while.There were tables everywhere in the yard, but the guests on the tables had long since dared to move their chopsticks. They all sat where they were with panicked faces, surrounded by many guards.

"Where did Yao Fang, the banner of Jinyiwei, go?" Gao Xianning asked loudly.

The soldiers and guests turned their heads and looked over, all at a loss.

Gao Xianning asked the soldiers loudly again: "Are there any idlers who escaped quietly from the yard just now?"

A general stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "My lord, brothers have guarded all parts of the courtyard, and none of them escaped!"

After a while, a soldier hurried in from outside the gate.The armored soldier stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "Report to Mr. Gao Si! The little ones asked about the situation on the street outside the back door. That Yao Zongqi snatched the bride in public and ran away!"

There was an uproar in the courtyard, and many people forgot to panic, and they all chatted enthusiastically, as if they felt that today's evening ceremony was very tortuous and interesting!Even the soldiers of the outer courtyard didn't know what happened, so they couldn't help talking.

"Yao Zongqi can do such a serious and unruly thing?" Gao Xianning asked angrily.

The soldier bowed and said: "It's true, there were many people on the street before, and there were hundreds of witnesses. The woman was wearing a wedding dress and a hijab, she looked like a bride, and was coerced by Yao Zongqi to come out; Then the bride was tied to the horse by Yao Zongqi! Yao Zongqi led the horse and ran away."

Gao Xianning asked: "Did Zongqi Yao beat and scold the bride?"

The armored scholar said: "That's not true. The bride's clothes are neat and tidy. It's just that the hijab fell off when she got on the horse. She was crying and her eyes were red. Yao Zongqi actually said to the bride in public: Since this spring, in the temple Seeing Qin Shi once, I think about her day and night, and I can't forget her..."

"Oh..." Everyone uttered a voice at the same time, their interest was even higher, it was even more interesting than the opera that hadn't started at the evening ceremony!

Gao Xianning said angrily: "It's unreasonable! In broad daylight, robbing people's daughters is simply insane! Is there no law in my Ming Dynasty?!"

Jia Shi said: "Then Yao Zongqi also said that he didn't want to rob people at first, but this time he was forced to do nothing! It was because he got a secret report from Jinyiwei that the Xiao family would be guilty of a serious crime, and he was afraid that Miss Qin would be implicated. He also said that it was for Hello Miss Qin!"

The outer courtyard, which was tense and panicky before, became lively again.

Gao Xianning found a few generals and started talking in a low voice in the corridor, discussing something.

The courtyard was full of noise, and no one stood up to speak in public anymore, letting people spit everywhere.

After a long time, a voice suddenly shouted from outside the gate: "The imperial decree has arrived!"

Not long after, a eunuch came in with a team of soldiers.The eunuch walked to the top and stood still, Gao Xianning stepped forward and knelt down on the ground, and the soldiers and all the guests, servants, cooks, actors, etc. quickly knelt down.

The eunuch unfolded the imperial decree and read: "Tan Qing made a confession. Tan Qing once sent medicine merchant Xiao Ji'en to collect silver ring snakes everywhere. The Xiao family may be related to the death of the late emperor; Jin Yiwei has sent people out of Beijing to verify the evidence of Xiao Jien's collection of silver ring snakes. .

I heard that Yao Fang, the General Banner of Fusi in North Town of Jinyiwei, took advantage of his position and abused his power. Before Xiao's crime was investigated, he came to hurt people, lynched, and robbed women!His crimes are clearly visible under the eyes of everyone.

Although Yao Fang has made great achievements in fighting crimes and rebelling against rebellion, he should have been named a Marquis in terms of merit; however, the law is ruthless, and his crime is unforgivable!Gao Xianning, Minister of Dali Temple, first received Yao Fang's Jinyiwei waist badge, seal and other things, and dismissed all official positions; and immediately took Yao Fang down, escorted him to the Imperial Prison, and severely punished him according to the "Law of the Ming Dynasty"!This is it. "

Gao Xian Ning prostrated himself on the ground and said: "I am in command, thank you! Long live the Holy Spirit..."

Everyone worshiped together: "Long live the Holy One."

The eunuch put away the edict, handed it to Gao Xianning, and asked, "Where is Yao Fang?"

Gao Xianning said: "This officer had to report before, after Yao Fang robbed someone and ran away, maybe he went home."

The eunuch said: "Master Gao, don't you hurry up and send someone to arrest him?!"

Gao Xianning immediately transferred a general and set off with the troops.Gao Xianning said loudly again: "Yao Fang must be severely punished; and the members of the Xiao family are also suspected of major crimes. They should all be arrested and brought to justice, waiting to be interrogated according to the law. The rest will be detained in Xiao's residence first, interrogated on the spot, and verified. The identities will be recorded and registered; those who are innocent will be released after hearing the order."

The generals clasped their fists together and said, "Obey!"

When the people in the outer courtyard heard that they were going to be detained here, they panicked and made noise again.People with insight even turned pale with fright; not long after the melons and vines from Yongle were copied, if the Xiao family was suspected of treason, wouldn't the guests who could attend the dark ceremony have something to do with the Xiao family?

Eunuch Wang Gui whispered to Gao Xianning: "Our family almost forgot, quickly find a goose feather and insert it for Xiao Wencai, otherwise you won't be able to urinate or suffocate! You have to clean up the wound."

Gao Xianning suddenly said: "This official neglected this section, and immediately asked someone to do it. It is best to save Xiao Wencai's life for the time being."

...Yao Fang's father, Yao Fengji, lived in Yao's residence after returning to Beijing.Seeing his son dragging a bride in a red dress back on a horse, Yao Fengji was confused and questioned her a bit.

Yao Fengji hadn't been with Yao Fang for many years, and he didn't beat or scold Yao Fang at this time, so he sat in the middle hall and sighed.

After a while, the door was surrounded by armored soldiers, a group of people broke into Yao's mansion and asked where Yao Fang was.

Yao Fang walked out of the middle hall, stood there and said, "Here I am!"

One of the generals said: "I will wait for the decree, under the order of the Minister of Dali Temple, to arrest Yao Fang and bring him to justice, and punish him severely according to the law!"

Yao Fang came up, kowtowed three times to the northeast of the imperial city, and said, "Thank you, my sage!" He stood up, stretched out his hands, and asked the soldiers to put him in shackles, and then he was shackled again.

A group of people escorted Yao Fang, making him drag his leg shackles to walk outside.

At this moment, a woman in a red dress rushed out of the middle hall. She leaned on the door frame and asked, "Zongqi Yao! I really went to the temple this spring. Is what you said true?"

Looking back at the soldiers on the left and right, Yao Fang was not the confidants of the Beisi, so he could only nod helplessly and said, "Of course it is true."

After saying that, he sighed and walked out of the mansion slowly without looking back.

Although there were armored soldiers inside and outside Yao's mansion, they still couldn't stop people from coming to watch. After a while, people passing by here stood by the side of the road, watching the gate of the mansion.Yao Fang wore a shackle around her neck and iron chains on her feet, and she walked slowly.

The passers-by obviously didn't know what was going on, and when they saw this kind of criminal, they decided it was a crime, and many of them cursed and condemned in the crowd.

6 Chapter Twenty

In the quaint small town of Jishui County, the old houses with earthen walls and blue tiles, and the worn and smooth slate floor, everything has a sense of decay after repeated soaking in water.Under the gloomy sky, the light was a little dim as the night approached.

In a pharmacy, a middle-aged man in a robe stroked the hem of the robe and sat down on a chair.His hands were very steady, he unhurriedly took a cushion for the guest to put on his wrist, and then gently stretched out his fingers to accurately cut the pulse.Obviously, he not only sells medicinal materials, but also prescribes prescriptions.

At this moment, several hurried figures walked past the hall door one after another.In this quiet and somewhat lifeless small town, everyone is usually relatively leisurely, and it seems that something has happened.

The middle-aged man first took a look at the stone floor outside the door, it was very dry and there was no sign of rain.

"Guest officer, wait a moment." The middle-aged man said politely, stood up quickly, and walked to the door.He turned his head and saw a few men in black robes wielding swords walking towards this side quickly!
