Yangcheng

Shi Ruzhuo didn't know when he entered the dream.

It may be when she turned over for the tenth time, or it may be that Bai Erniang fanned her to temporarily relieve the uncomfortable heat from her body.

Dreamland is like a narrow crack. After Shi Ruzhuo managed to squeeze in, she found that the crack was bottomless. The abyss quickly captured her consciousness, and covered her head with a cloth cover soaked in water, so that She was up and down in it.

until someone hugged her.

She was floating in the deep sea of ​​consciousness, unable to control all her movements, but this hug gave her strength, as if the cloth covering her head was also taken off.

Shi Ruzhuo took a deep breath, trying to turn around slowly, looking at the person behind her who was hugging her.

Just when she was about to turn around, the person behind her suddenly stopped her and pressed her whole body under him.

"I took away your important things."

With a playful and presumptuous smile, the man deliberately bit her ear hard.

Shi Ruzhuo panicked, she saw her mother was in front of her, trapped in Tiezhu's prison, and a huge knife behind her was about to fall and kill her.

Aunt—Aniang!

Shi Ruzhuo yelled, trying to break free from the people behind him.

The person behind him not only did not let her go, but also bullied her wantonly.

Let me go, I'm going to save my mother!

open!

Lu Lan heart!

Shi Ruzhuo turned around abruptly, swung out an arm full of anger, and a wailing sound woke her up completely.

Shi Ruzhuo opened his eyes and saw that she was in his own home, and Ge Xunqing, who was hit by her, was lying on the side covering his face, tears were about to come out.

"What's the matter?!" Bai Erniang fell into a drowsy sleep, and when she heard the yelling, she wiped the saliva from her mouth and bounced it from the other side.

The cold sweat on Shi Ruzhuo's body hadn't disappeared yet, and the feeling of hitting Ge Xunqing firmly with his arm was still very clear.

Those who beat people are in terrible pain, let alone those who are beaten.

"Yangguang..." Shi Ruzhuo wanted to step forward to check on Ge Xunqing's injuries, but Ge Xunqing kicked his legs back immediately, away from Shi Ruzhuo.

There were tears in Ge Xunqing's eyes, still in shock.

Bai Erniang: "What happened? Ge Yangguang, what did you do?"

Ge Xunqing was wronged 1 times: "What did I do! I was beaten while I was sleeping, I am innocent!"

When Ge Xunqing came back from the county office, Shi Ruzhuo had just fallen asleep, and Erniang Bai came to open the door for her.

Ge Xunqing didn't want to disturb Shi Ruzhuo, and wanted to talk to her when she woke up. She herself was tired for such a long time, and she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, so she lay down on the floor and fell asleep together.

Ge Xunqing doesn't sleep well, she loves to toss and turn.

He turned over inadvertently just now, and put his arm on Shi Ruzhuo's body.

Shi Ruzhuo, who was having a nightmare, was agitated by her dead arm, and subconsciously turned around and punched her.

Ge Xunqing was still dreaming about eating roast goose. The goose was just out of the oven and it was placed in front of her. Before she could tear off a piece of meat, the roast goose suddenly flew up and kicked her straight, throwing her directly from the pillow. Kicked up and jumped up.

Seeing the people and the environment in front of him clearly, Shi Ruzhuo, who finally recovered from the nightmare, apologized to Ge Xunqing:

"Sorry Yangon, I was so delirious in my dream that I accidentally hurt you. Don't be afraid, I'll see how you are hurt."

Ge Xunqing emphasized again: "I really didn't do anything bad! I'm sleeping too!"

"Yes, of course I know." Shi Ruzhuo thought it was a bit funny seeing her afraid of him, and he was really thinking about her injury, so he approached carefully, "Let me see how her face is."

Ge Xunqing pursed her lips, and lowered her arm covering her cheek, a red mark was punched on her face, and there were signs of blood oozing from the corner of her mouth.

"bleeding!"

"It's okay, it's just a small bump." Ge Xunqing quickly returned to her usual heartless appearance, and sighed, "Your strength is really not small. Fortunately, you hit the face. If you hit the eyeball, You must have blown out my eyeballs. Hey, my pretty little face is really suffering."

Shi Ruzhuo immediately went to get the ice bag that Ge Xunqing had prepared for her earlier, and returned with cold well water to help her apply ice.

Ge Xunqing asked her what kind of nightmare she had, she was so excited.

She said she had dreamed about A Niang.

The two sat facing each other, Shi Ruzhuo carefully covered her cheek with an ice pack, and asked her if it hurt.

This scene really irritated Erniang Bai.

Bai Erniang was puzzled, spring is over!No matter where you go, you still see pictures of the old couple loving each other?Really pissed me off.

Ge Xunqing said that she went to the yamen to find out:

"I didn't see the sixth sister-in-law, but Hu Erlang went to detain the person with the county captain at that time. I caught him and asked him a meal. He said he didn't know what was going on. The county lieutenant took him to arrest people, so he had no choice but to follow. After taking Liusao back to the Yamen, there was no trial, and she was directly locked in death row. Hu Erlang was still wondering, Liusao usually opened a steamed bun shop to sell Earlier, what the hell did he get into and was sent directly to death row? He felt that there must be something wrong with this matter, so he secretly observed it. He found that She County Magistrate had arrived in prison at some time, and whispered to the county lieutenant After a few words, the two walked out together. Hu Erlang instinctively felt that Mrs. Six had been wronged, and there must be something hidden in it, so he boldly followed."

Ge Xunqing sat on the ground, leaning against the bed, Shi Rumo lay on the bed with a small head poked out, listening to her as if listening to a story.

Shi Ruzhuo and Bai Erniang were also nervous when they heard:

"This Hu Erlang is really brave!"

Ge Xunqing said: "Hu Erlang, like me, Aye, has been working in the county government for a long time, but he is a native of Su County!"

Ge Xunqing continued: "This Hu Erlang has been on the job for many years, and he may not have other skills, but the ability to follow people and not teach others to find them is the most powerful. He came out of the death row and quietly followed behind Shexian magistrate and county lieutenant. , saw the two of them enter the room where She County Magistrate worked, and whispered inside.

"Hu Erlang pretended to be standing guard at the door, but he was actually eavesdropping in secret. I couldn't hear the specific words clearly, but he heard something about Hu's family, something about Noda, something about the mountain... Then someone came over, so he couldn't stay any longer, so he left gone."

Ge Xunqing said to Shi Ruzhuo: "According to what Hu Erlang said, the sixth sister-in-law was imprisoned as soon as she arrived at the yamen. There was no interrogation, so naturally she didn't suffer."

With Ge Xunqing's words, Shi Ruzhuo's anxious heart eased slightly.

But thinking of all the allusions or story books, the descriptions of death row are horrifying and extremely tormenting, and her mother is still in that place where people are being abused, she still feels very uncomfortable.

She found coarse cloth and recorded all the key points that Ge Xunqing said just now, waiting to discuss with Tong Shaoxuan, Tang Jianwei and the others.

"I don't know what happened to sister-in-law and the others." Ge Xunqing couldn't sit still, "No, I'll go to Shuangfu Inn to have a look."

When she was about to get up and go out, there was a hasty knock on the door, and Shi Ruzhuo immediately went to open the door.

It was Tong Shaoxuan and Tang Jianwei!

As soon as the gate opened, before Shi Ruzhuo could ask, he saw the two people at the gate smiling happily, so he knew everything was going well!

"The petition has been submitted to Wu Yushi, and we have already talked with her."

Tong Shaoxuan and Tang Jianwei entered the room, without taking a sip of water, they poured out everything about going to Shuangfu Inn.

The more Shi Ruzhuo listened, the more excited he became.

It seems that this Wu Yushi is an upright and upright official, maybe he will really investigate the case thoroughly!

Ge Xunqing recounted what she had heard in the county government, and Shi Ruzhuo gave Tong Shaoxuan the key points she had recorded.

After hearing what Ge Xunqing said, Tang Jianwei also praised Hu Erlang: "It's no wonder that you, the son of Suxian County, have such courage. He must know that you and the sixth sister-in-law's daughter know each other in Yangon. If the secret of the yamen is exposed, if She County Magistrate investigates later, he will definitely not be able to escape the responsibility."

Ge Xunqing said: "How could I involve him? Even if I put him on the roast goose grill, I will not betray Hu Erlang!"

Tong Shaoxuan: "What roast goose?"

Ge Xunqing licked her lips: "It's okay..."

Although I am very hungry and want to eat roast goose, when is this?Everyone was nervous, and it was inappropriate to mention eating.

Ge Xunqing tried hard to suppress the desire to eat.

Tong Shaoxuan put Shi Ruzhuo's coarse cloth in front of the short case, thinking hard:

"Hu family, Noda, Shan? The Hu family refers to someone with the surname Hu? His ally?"

Everyone surrounded the whole circle, each of them frowned, with gloomy expressions.

"What does Noda mean?"

Ge Xunqing casually said: "What are the mountains? Baitou Mountain? Fucang Mountain? There are only these two mountains in Su County."

Bai Erniang propped her face sideways, and her mouth was crooked: "It may not be the mountain in our county, it may be from other places..."

Tang Jianwei's eyes were a little straight: "No, this mountain may refer to Fucang Mountain."

Everyone looked at her.

Shi Ruzhuo: "Sister Tang, did you think of something?"

Tang Jianwei naturally remembered that she had followed She County Magistrate and his party to Fucang Mountain.

Although her whereabouts were exposed because the eagle-eyed man who was accompanying her was extra vigilant, and she couldn't follow to the end, but the county magistrate brought a load of unknowable things to Fucang Mountain at the beginning, and this matter did not go away.

Tang Jianwei didn't care about keeping the matter of her stalking secret, and told everyone all the details she saw at that time.

I hope everyone can brainstorm and dig out some details that she didn't realize at the time.

Ge Xunqing: "I transported boxes of airtight objects to Fucang Mountain... and the wheel marks are very deep, it doesn't look like a sacrifice. What could it be?"

Shi Ruzhuo: "Is there something heavier hidden in the box?"

Tong Shaoxuan's eyes moved quickly on the faces of his companions and the bamboo slips.

The Hu family, Noda... Shan.

Suddenly an idea popped up in his mind, and he grabbed Tang Jianwei's hand.

"How?" Tang Jianwei was a little excited, "Did you think of anything?"

"This is a code word." Tong Shaoxuan said, "but it's not a very sophisticated code word, but a code word that uses homophony."

Tang Jianwei was reminded by her and immediately understood:

"Hu family, armor?!"

Shi Ruzhuo said "ah": "Noda, could it be that you are smelting iron?"

Ge Xunqing: "Armor, smelting iron? What does this mean?"

Bai Erniang almost jumped up: "Cast iron privately, he wants to rebel?!"

Tong Shaoxuan and Tang Jianwei immediately covered her mouth, Bai Erniang's eyes widened, and she nodded, indicating that she would not speak out again.

After suddenly figuring out the code words, no one said anything, and the whole room seemed so quiet that even breathing could not be heard.

It was Tang Jianwei who spoke first: "It is difficult to rebel based on She County Magistrate alone. I am afraid that this matter will be involved in a wide range of connections, which is not what we expected. Therefore, even if you know about this matter, you must not make it public. Yangon, If possible, you should remind Hu Erlang not to spread the matter. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."

Ge Xunqing's face turned pale: "Okay, okay, definitely!"

Tang Jianwei reminded: "Even when you mention him, don't say everything, just let him understand."

"Well, I will."

Tang Jianwei quickly thought of Wei Ci's deep meaning in marrying her to Su County, and silently looked at Tong Shaoxuan——

The Eldest Princess probably knew about She County Magistrate's suspicion of treason for a long time, and this matter is related to our Tang family, so I was asked to come to Su County to investigate this matter secretly.

Rebellion is an unavoidable and troublesome thing that every dynasty and even every reigning emperor needs to face and solve.

Even though there are countless people who want to rebel against the emperor, there are very few who succeed in the end, let alone He Qinghaiyan, the Tianxian years when the imperial power is getting stronger day by day.

And Wei Ci and the sisters of the Son of Heaven are deeply in love, and they are also the prince who has been trained for many years. Wei Ci, who has been educated by the prince, even now becomes the eldest princess, his skills in governing the country are still not soft, and he probably shares the worries of the emperor behind his back.

With Wei Ci's help, it seems that She County Magistrate's suspected treason is more sinister than imagined.

Unexpectedly, because of the sixth sister-in-law's affairs, there was a trace of flaws. I have to say that it was God's will, and it was God who was helping the Wei family.

There must be no haste in this matter.

Thinking of this level, one has to lament that Wei Ci is so scheming.

She must have calculated that Tang Jianwei wanted to find out the truth about Ye Niang's death and would pay attention to all the details in Suxian County. If there were clues, she would definitely do her best to expose them.

There are also deeper considerations for marrying her to Tong's family.

Although the Tong family itself is not a big family, but with the backing of the Changsun family, even if they get into trouble, they will not suffer catastrophe.For Changsun's sake, anyone who wants to mess with their family has to weigh it carefully.

Coupled with the fact that the small door of the Tong's Mansion was used as a cover, it was not easy to penetrate, and it was more convenient for Tang Jianwei to investigate behind the scenes.

Wei Ci really had a good plan.

After figuring this out, Tang Jianwei was even more certain that the Wu Yushi who came to Su County for inspection this time should be reliable.

The people at Yushitai were not randomly dispatched, especially these supervisory censors, who may have been directly appointed by the emperor.

He will send Wu Yushi to Su County, thinking about it, maybe Wei Ci really gave Tang Jianwei a mountain-opening axe.

Tang Jianwei couldn't help slandering: Why didn't Wei Ci inform in advance of such a big event?What if I didn't figure this out?What can I do then?If you miss such a major event, where will you go to track it down?Could it be that telepathy alone is not enough to investigate cases?Is there any telepathy between me and His Royal Highness the Princess?

You can only fool your enemies if you have fooled your "own people". Elder Princess, do you think so?

Tang Jianwei thought about it for a while, so it was Wei Ci's bad taste to pick a supervisor censor surnamed Wu, right?Made up my mind to scare me?

Tang Jianwei could almost see Wei Ci's evil and pleasant smile behind his back.

Tang Jianwei's thoughts drifted for a while, Tong Shaoxuan and the others had already started to discuss frantically, the sixth sister-in-law must have seen the evidence of She County magistrate's rebellion in the middle of the night before being wronged.

"Could it be that you saw a private delivery of armor and weapons?"

"It's possible. If it's normal deployment and transportation, why do you have to act during the curfew? Now that the sixth sister-in-law has been taken away, there is simply no money here. This county magistrate is also stupid enough."

Tong Shaoxuan said: "The magistrate of She County has been domineering in Su County for five years. I am afraid he has done some evil things long ago, but he has never been discovered or investigated, and he is somewhat relaxed. This time the central government dispatched surveillance The censor's next visit is probably different from previous years. This time, the person who came back is the one who is really investigating the case. It is not good to get away with it. She County Magistrate is very likely to be afraid that the other party will find out something that is not good for him. It was only then that the physical evidence of the treason was transported away overnight. Being discovered by the sixth sister-in-law in a hurry made the county magistrate even more anxious. While dealing with the supervisory censor, he also had to destroy evidence and witnesses. I am afraid that the days of the county magistrate She It’s not easy. I have exposed more deeds in a hurry, so it’s God’s eyes.”

Shi Ruzhuo put his palm on his heart: "I hope Wu Yushi can investigate the case impartially and return my mother's innocence."

Ge Xunqing patted her on the shoulder, her cheeks were already swollen from the beating, her words leaked, but her expression was firm: "Yes, I will!"

After she finished speaking, everyone was amused, and Ge Xunqing sighed:

"Okay, it's my merit to let you all relax and relax."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Wei Ci: Tang San, Tang San, are you taking a Chinese test, reading comprehension?Ben Gong is such a powerful person?

Tang Jianwei: It's hard to say whether it's serious or not, but there are really many evil things.

Wei Ci: ...
