don't show

Mr. Lin doesn't want him to interfere!

After glancing at Lieutenant Dongcheng, Lin Xiu walked straight to the door of the cell. Lieutenant Dongcheng's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and after several changes in his face, he suddenly bent down and covered his stomach, and wailed, "Oh, no, no, my officer! Why is my stomach hurting so much, I'm going to the latrine, you tell Lord Cheng Ling, let him try this case!"

After a while, after hearing the news that Lieutenant Dongcheng had a stomachache and was unable to hear the case, Dongcheng Ling cursed inwardly, but still put on his official uniform, walked out from the back office, came to the court, sat upright, and slapped the gavel, Shen Sheng asked the young people in the hall: "The servant committed the crime, you can be convicted!"

An official as big as sesame and mung bean can be regarded as an official, so Lin Xiu can avoid kneeling in the courtroom. He raised his head and asked Dongcheng Ling: "I don't know, please tell me clearly."

Dongcheng Ling patted the gavel again, and said angrily: "You killed someone in the theater, and I don't know how many people witnessed it with their own eyes. Do you still want to make excuses?"

Lin Xiu asked: "Since it's a homicide case, according to the rules, the Dongcheng Yamen doesn't seem to have the authority to try it?"

Dongcheng Ling snorted coldly, and said, "Don't think that I don't know that you are the son of Uncle Ping'an, or the secretary of the Qing Dynasty Officials Department. If I really want to hand you over to the Qing Officials Department, maybe they will excuse you. The parental officer in Dongcheng, how can he ignore such a big case in his jurisdiction, the official will investigate this case first, and then, of course, the file will be handed over to the Department of Criminal Justice, and there will be adults there who will take over."

What he said was righteous and full of righteous indignation. People who didn't know it might really think that he was a parent official who loved the people like a son.

Dongcheng Ling patted the gavel again, and said loudly, "Lin Xiu, you will not recruit for the murder in public!"

Lin Xiu shrugged and said, "Isn't your lord the most clear about whether I killed someone or not?"

"Okay, you!" Dongcheng stood up angrily, took out a warrant stick from the tube, threw it on the ground, and said, "Killing people in public and not knowing how to repent, torture this officer, this kind of wicked person, don't let him suffer He will not be honest with the pain of flesh and blood!"

Soon, several arresters took out various instruments of torture.

Dongcheng Ling looked at Lin Xiu and asked, "Do you want to be punished first with the rod, the slap, or the signature? I will give you a chance to choose."

Just as he finished speaking, a figure who had been standing outside the courtroom for a long time walked in slowly.

It was Zhu Jin who was ordered to investigate the case.

His Majesty told him not to be in a hurry and wait for the people behind the scenes to jump out, but at this moment Lin Xiu was about to be punished, the imperial concubine and empress said, don't let him suffer a little bit of grievance, really want Dongcheng Ling to punish him, and make the empress angry, His Majesty can't protect him either.

In the palace, the person he fears most is the imperial concubine.

Zhu Jin looked up at Dongcheng Ling and asked, "You said just now that someone from the Ministry of Criminal Justice will take over the case. Who is that person?"

A person who disturbed the court suddenly broke in from outside. Dongcheng Ling was stunned for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you, and what qualifications do you have to question this officer, come here, drag him out for a while Interrogate again!"

"Don't tell me, right?" Zhu Jin didn't look at him again, but raised his hand, waved forward, and said: "To win the Dongcheng Order, first you will be punished with a stick, then you will be punished, and finally you will be signed until he speaks out." until."

When his words fell, more than a dozen masked figures in black robes came in from outside and lined up on both sides of the courtroom.

At the same time, for unknown reasons, the ground of Dongcheng Yamen also began to tremble slightly.

Outside the yamen, the nearby people were also frightened when they saw rows of heavily armed guards enclosing the Dongcheng yamen.

"what happened?"

"Why are the guards here!"

"Why did the imperial guards surround the yamen? Something big happened, it must have happened!"

……

At this moment in the courtroom, Dongcheng Ling saw those men in black and the patterns on their clothes, so he stood up from his seat in shock, and said in a trembling voice: "Secret, secret investigator!"

In the royal capital, if you want to say what Dongcheng Ling is most afraid of, it is not the immediate boss, not some powerful person, not the Marquis of Yongping, not even the emperor, but the secret investigator!

This department of the imperial court is like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark. If it doesn't appear, it's fine. Once it appears, someone's family will be ruined.

I don't know who is unlucky this time?

Oh, it was himself.

Dong Chengling's eyes went dark and he passed out.

Zhu Jin glanced at Dongcheng Ling who was lying on the ground, and said calmly: "Wake him up before execution."

Dongcheng Yamen, Hou Yamen.

Dong Chengwei hid in the latrine, forcibly endured the stench here, and did not go out until he guessed that it was almost time, and when he really couldn't bear the stink here, he rushed out of the latrine, stood in the yard, and took a deep breath in the fresh air.

The next moment, his breathing stopped.

Because he saw dozens of figures standing in the yard besides him.

The rows of people wearing armor and holding weapons are undoubtedly the imperial army, but why are there imperial army in the yamen?

And those people who were dressed in black and covered their faces with black veils were no strangers to Lieutenant Dongcheng. They were members of the secret investigation department, and the secret investigation department that made the officials and dignitaries of the royal capital fearful also came...

As soon as Lieutenant Dongcheng appeared, dozens of sharp eyes all shot at him.

The next moment, Dong Chengwei's knees softened, he knelt down on the ground, raised his hands high, and said in a trembling voice: "Don't catch me, I'm a good person, I'm a good person..."

Chapter 59 The Concubine's Double Standard

Dongcheng Ya.

In the courtroom, Lin Xiu cupped his hands to Zhu Jin and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhu, for saving me."

Zhu Jin shook his head and said: "You don't have to thank me, if you want to thank you, you can thank your majesty and the empress. That person was rude to the empress, and he deserved to die, and none of the people behind them can escape. This Dongcheng Yamen is the most important thing." Clean the object."

Dongcheng Ling, who had just been woken up by being splashed with water, simply passed out after hearing the words.

Afterwards, Zhu Jin narrowed his eyes, looked at Lin Xiu with half a smile, and said in a low voice, "However, our family admires your courage, even your majesty and empress dare to plot, this time, It's the empress who protects you, next time, I'm afraid you won't have such good luck..."

There was a strong sense of warning in Zhu Jin's tone.

Lin Xiu was startled, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back instantly.

What went wrong?

There should be no obvious loopholes in his plan, and after the imperial concubine left the palace, the state of the spiritual pet has indeed recovered very well, which shows that his treatment method is correct. From the beginning to the end, he is doing what he should do Things are unlikely to leak flaws.

Ren Linxiu racked his brains, but he never thought that the reason why he would be seen through this time is actually because he left the impression of LYB on Emperor Xia last time...

Fortunately, judging from Zhu Jin's attitude, His Majesty doesn't seem to care about his crime of deceiving the emperor, but this also reminded Lin Xiu that he must not be smart in the future...

This time, there is really no way, the Lin family is weak, no matter from which aspect, it can't compete with the first-class Hou's family, he has to gamble, and he can only gamble.

Fortunately, he was right.

Not long after Dong Chengling passed out, he was woken up again by the people from the secret investigation department. Before he could be tortured, he recruited everything.

Including how he was instigated by Yongping Hou's son Yang Xuan to arrange arrests around Lin Xiu in advance, intending to make the case an iron case and hand it over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice as soon as possible, and confessed all the joint officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

His original plan was that if the matter was revealed, he would take all the responsibilities, and Yang Xuan must not be confessed.

But at this moment, he couldn't help being dishonest. The imperial guards and secret investigation department were dispatched together, and he definitely had no possibility of hiding it for Yang Xuan.

The severity of the case had far exceeded what he could resist by himself.

At this moment, Lieutenant Dongcheng, Wang Hong, Wu Qingyi, etc. were also brought over by the secret investigation department to interrogate together. Lin Xiu looked at Lieutenant Dongcheng and said to Zhu Jin, "Director Zhu, this case should be settled with Dongcheng. It has nothing to do with the captain, he reminded me just now in the cell."

Lin Xiu's words were understated, but to Wei Dongcheng's ears, it sounded like the sound of nature.

At this moment, Lin Xiu shines brightly in his eyes, like a reborn parent.

Zhu Jin looked at Lin Xiu, and said, "In that case, let this lord go."

After Dong Chengwei and Wu Qing were let go, they immediately stepped forward, bowed and said: "Thank you for your honest words, sir, and thank you for your insight!"

Zhu Jin nodded slightly, and then said to everyone in the secret investigation department: "Some people, go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to arrest people, and a few more people, come with me to Yongping Hou's Mansion."

Now that His Majesty has said that no one involved in this case should be let go, and the son of Marquis Yongping, who is the chief culprit, will naturally not be able to escape punishment.

At this time, Yang Xuan had just returned home in Yongping Hou Mansion.

After learning that Lin Xiu was arrested and taken to the Dongcheng Yamen, and the plan went smoothly, he had nothing to worry about.

Lin Xiu murdered in public, and countless people witnessed it with his own eyes. He had already taken extra care of the Dongcheng Yamen and the Ministry of Criminal Justice, so he could not escape this crime.

As long as Lin Xiu's crime of murder is fulfilled, although he will most likely be spared death, at least he will end up in exile. At that time, the marriage contract will naturally lose its validity.

Even if the Zhao family keeps their promise, it is impossible for the Zhao family to marry Ling Jun to a criminal. He indirectly found a legitimate reason for the Zhao family. Should the Zhao family thank him?

Thinking of this, Yang Xuan couldn't help but smile.

"What makes you so happy?" At this moment, a deep voice came from the front.

Yang Xuan raised his head and saw a figure approaching from the front. He straightened his face immediately and said respectfully, "Father."

The middle-aged man with a dignified expression glanced at him and said, "I heard from the housekeeper that you are against Uncle Ping'an's son?"

Yang Xuan knew that what he did could not be hidden from his father, so he did not deny it, saying: "He is not worthy of Lingjun."

The middle-aged man looked at him calmly and asked, "Are you worthy?"

Yang Xuan was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't even have the ability to perform strange arts, and I'm not worthy, but he is even less worthy. How can such a beautiful person like her marry that trash!"

The middle-aged man said: "That is the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker."

Yang Xuan raised his head suddenly, and said with a ferocious expression: "Fucking parents' order, matchmaker's words, two old things who have been dead for who knows how many years, but they want to decide the fate of others, I know I am not worthy of her, even if I have no objection to her marrying the crown prince or King Zhao, but I don't agree with marrying that trash!"

The middle-aged man's eyes were calm, but his tone was a little disappointed. He shook his head and said, "Xuan'er, you let me down. Ever since you met the girl from the Zhao family a few years ago, you have only seen her. Have you ever thought about it?" But, are you going to inherit the great family business of the Yang family?"

"What kind of family business, I don't care." A smile appeared on Yang Xuan's face, and he said, "As long as I can look after her well, I will be content."

Looking at his obsessed look, the disappointment in Yongpinghou's eyes became stronger, and then his gaze returned to Gujing Wubo again, and he said lightly: "I'm afraid you will be disappointed, the marriage contract between the Lin family and the Zhao family cannot be canceled Yes, even if the Lin family wants to cancel, the Zhao family will not cancel, and most importantly, His Majesty will not agree."

Yang Xuan suddenly raised his head and asked, "Why!"

Yongpinghou didn't answer his question, but suddenly turned his head and looked in a certain direction.

A series of black shadow figures came from there, surrounded Yang Xuan, Zhu Jin walked up to Yongping Hou, cupped his hands and said: "Our family has seen the Hou Ye."

Yongping Hou said: "Director Zhu is polite, I wonder what is the important matter for the general manager to come to Yang's residence today?"

Zhu Jin glanced at Yang Xuan, then looked at Yongping Hou again, and said, "Master Hou, it's not our family who blamed you, Master Hou, you are wise and wise, our family admires you very much, but you really neglected to discipline your son. , this time, he made a huge mess..."

Yang Xuan was shocked: "I, what happened to me?"

……

After leaving the Dongcheng Yamen, Lin Xiu did not go home, but came to the palace.

In order to make it easier for the noble concubine's spiritual pet to see a doctor, Emperor Xia gave him a waist badge. With this waist badge, he can enter the harem under the leadership of the eunuch, but it is only limited to the Changchun Palace.

After entering the Changchun Palace, a group of white shadows flew out of the palace and threw themselves into Lin Xiu's arms.

The little guy curled up in Lin Xiu's arms, arched his head against his chest, and said happily, "You came to see me so soon!"

The imperial concubine also came out of the hall, and when she saw Lin Xiu, she looked him up and down and asked, "They didn't do anything to you, did they?"

Lin Xiudao: "No, Eunuch Zhu went in time."

Only then did the imperial concubine show a smile, and said, "Forgive him for not daring not to listen to what I say, or I will take his skin off!"

The imperial concubine was tall and tall, standing beside Lin Xiu, she was only a little shorter than him. Lin Xiu lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty, the student came this time to apologize to your Majesty."

The imperial concubine glanced at him, and asked, "You cured Nannan, but you still tried to make me happy, what's your crime?"

The imperial concubine was indeed a bit fierce, but her love for her was not fake at all. Lin Xiu didn't want to lie to her, so she told the whole thing.

Before His Majesty tells her, it's better for him to confess and be lenient.

Even if the imperial concubine wants to punish him, he will admit it. Based on his understanding of the imperial concubine, considering the face of this little thing, she should deal with him lightly.

After listening to Lin Xiu's words, the imperial concubine fell into a long silence.

After a while, she asked: "You said, all this is the son of Marquis Yongping who framed you. This is not the first time?"

Lin Xiu nodded and told the truth about what happened before.

The imperial concubine frowned, and said: "This man surnamed Yang is really insidious and cunning. He always hides behind his back to make troubles. I hate such a cunning person the most!"

Then she looked at Lin Xiu again and asked, "So, you first provoke him to make him feel revengeful, then hide at home and make him wait impatiently, so that as soon as you go out, he will be there in the first place." Do it all at once, and you asked Bengong to leave the palace just to use Bengong's hand to deal with him?"

Lin Xiu quickly explained: "It's not exactly like this. The students also saw that the empress is in a bad mood recently. I heard from Miss Shuangshuang that the imperial hospital prescribed some prescriptions, and the empress did not feel better after taking it. So I want my empress to go out of the palace to relax. , if Yang Xuan really chooses to attack the students at that time, he will be considered unlucky..."

The imperial concubine looked at Lin Xiu with beautiful eyes, and she said with splendor, "I didn't expect you to be so smart when you usually look dumb, and you can think of such a way. As you, you want to compete with the first-class Marquis. It's really hard for you..."

Lin Xiu froze in place, not knowing what to say.

Why did Yang Xuan do the same thing sinisterly and cunningly, and Lin Xiuming was even more sinister than him, so in the eyes of the imperial concubine, he was smart?

This is too double standard!

However, he likes this double standard.

The imperial concubine looked at the spiritual pet who was having fun in Lin Xiu's arms, with a smile brewing in her beautiful eyes, and said: "I have never seen my daughter be so close to an outsider before, it seems that she also knows who treats her well, remember, From now on, you will be a member of my Changchun Palace, if anyone dares to bully you, you can tell this palace, this palace will make decisions for you..."

Chapter 60 Minghe provokes, Lin Xiu fights back

At first, Lin Xiu felt that Concubine Shu treated people very well.
