Chapter 1144 Master You

When Cao Juren heard this voice, he was stunned, and couldn't recognize who it was for a while.

But the prefect Shi heard it, and was overjoyed, and hurried to pick him up: "Master Yan, why are you here, Master Lin, hurry up and take a seat."

Although Old Master Yan San was not the highest-ranking person in the Yan family, he was also an official, and he retired eight years ago and returned to his hometown to retire.

Cao Ju was startled, he didn't expect that Old Master Yan San would come here in person, and he would not stand by his side after hearing what Old Master Yan San scolded him.

Although he is an octogenarian old man, the old man Yan San is not young anymore, and he has been an official. He comes from a wealthy family. There is no need to deal with him carefully for the sake of official reputation like Shi Zhifu, and he can not give him any face. .

Cao Juren was scared, and so were Cao Juren's students. They could bully Gu Jin'an, but they didn't dare to bully Mr. Yan San.

The old man Yan San looked at their cowardice, and smiled angrily: "If you don't have the guts to help others and harm others, can't you just enjoy your old age honestly?"

Cao Ju's heart skipped a beat when he said this, and he looked at the old man Yan San in horror... Could it be that the Yan family already knew about Tong San's bribery of him?

Hey, Cao Juren really guessed right.

Since Yan Xiaowu fell ill suddenly during the government examination and missed the position of the chief of the government, the Yan family sent people to watch Tong San, and found out that Tong San let the old man in Osmanthus Lane do errands, and gave Cao Juren money, Send news, bribe Cao Juren to harm others.

Old Master Yan San didn't talk nonsense with Cao Juren, and directly told the things that the Yan family had found out: "The old man has already brought the old man, and you will know when you ask."

The prefect Shi now attaches great importance to the affairs of the Tong family, and when he heard that it was Tong San who sent someone to bribe Cao Juren, he immediately said, "Bring the old man here."

Lao Guitou is an old man in his fifties. His parents were servants in the Tong family. Because of his meritorious service, the Tong family released his family to freedom after his parents died.

But in the eyes of the Tong family, he is still a servant of the Tong family, who has to do whatever the Tong family asks them to do.

As soon as the old man came, he knelt down and cried: "Master Zhifu, the younger one was forced. If the younger one doesn't do this, the family will not be able to live in Fucheng... Tong's family has so many nursing homes and escort bureaus. Randomly send an escort to teach the little one a lesson, even the little one can't stand it."

Shi Zhifu said: "Don't talk nonsense, how Tong San bribed Cao Fangshan, you can explain clearly."

After hearing this, the old nobleman dared not delay any longer, and told Tong San about asking him to go to Cao Juren and threatening Cao Juren: "When Cao Juren was over 60 years old, he got a big girl's belly. The child was raised by Cao Juren in the countryside. Young Master Tong San used this incident to intimidate Cao Juren first, saying that if he didn't help harm the chief of the case, he would tell him about his scandal of going into a flower bush when he was old and giving birth to a child with a prostitute. Go out and make him the laughing stock of Fucheng. But if it is done, Cao Juren will be rewarded with 5000 taels, and Cao Juren agreed."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked. They never expected to hear such gossip.

The people who watched the excitement were talking about it, pointing at Cao Juren and jokingly saying: "Yo, Cao Juren, you are quite a fierce old man, and you still find a flower girl to have a child at such an old age. This is an old man, even though it was born by a prostitute. Well, it's still a baby, you have to take it home and take good care of it."

Some people disagreed and said: "Why raise it? My mother is a prostitute. I don't know if the child is his own. How can Cao Juren take it back and raise it? What if it doesn't look like him when it grows up, but looks like a girl?" A certain man in Fucheng, isn't Cao Juren going to die of anger?"

Cao Juren was about to die of anger, pointed at them, and cursed tremblingly: "You, you, shut up, cough, cough, cough!"

The prefect Shi was afraid that Cao Ju would die in the courtroom, so he immediately patted the gavel and said: "Silence, silence, no matter how much people who have nothing to do with you dare to talk too much, you will be beaten with a cane twenty times!"

After hearing this, the people who watched the excitement shut up immediately and continued watching the play.

Cao Juren was so angry that he survived after a round of needle injections by the invited doctor.

Shi Zhifu said: "Cao Juren, for the sake of you being an octogenarian, the government will not embarrass you, just treat you as being cheated by Tong San, apologize to the head of the case, pay 100 taels of silver, and go home go."

Kong Xuezheng nodded and agreed, "Master Shi is indeed benevolent, Cao Juren, you should cherish your blessing."

If the matter of being bribed to falsely accuse the court chief is really pursued, Cao Juren's reputation will be deprived.

But Cao Juren lost his face. If he just admits his mistake and apologizes like this, his reputation for life will be ruined. He is not willing to apologize, but pointed to Gu Jin'an and said: "My lord, it is true that Mr. Gu is not alive but not dead. Gu Jin'an's family has a feud with Mr. Gu, and this old man suspects that Mr. Gu was killed by their family. Please, sir, investigate this case thoroughly, otherwise, otherwise..."

Old Master Yan San smiled: "Otherwise, what will you do?"

Cao Juren was taken aback by the question. Under the heavy blow, he burst into tears and cried, "Otherwise, this old man will be bumped to death in this court, and the world will be righted!"

Ah bah, are you still on the right path?You just finished killing someone, that face said such things.

"You are obsessed with obsession." The old man Yan San looked at Cao Juren and said, "Cao Fangshan, if you apologize now, you can still keep your fame, but if you insist on tracking down the whereabouts of Mr. Gu, say that he was killed by Gu Jin'an's family. If you die, we won't spoil you anymore. When the truth comes out, it will be reported to the capital to deprive you of your fame, and you have to think about what to do."

Cao Juren's students listened and advised him one after another: "Sir, now that the matter has come to an end, let's apologize and leave as soon as possible, it will only be more embarrassing if we continue to make trouble! And the Yan family should not be offended, if you offend the Yan family, you let us return How do you live in Linhe Mansion?"

Cao Juren originally wanted to admit his mistake, but when he heard the students' words, he saw that the students disliked him for being ashamed, and his face became even more embarrassing. He knew that if he couldn't kill Gu Jinan today, and if he was convicted of Gu Jinan's crime, then he would be completely finished.

Cao Juren's eyes were red with anger, and he stared at Old Master Yan San and said, "Gu Jin'an just murdered Old Master Gu!"

"Heh." Old Master Yan San sneered, and said to Yan Xiaowu, "Go and bring Master You, Dr. Li, and Bantou Xue in."

"Yes." Yan Xiaowu immediately walked out of the court, greeted the servants at home, and brought Master You and the three who had been waiting in the carriage.

Old Master Yan San pointed to Master You and said, "Old Master Gu is not dead. Now he is living with this Master You in a Taoist temple in the mountains. Dr. Li and Bantou Xue can both testify how Master You met Old Master Gu and how he saved him. .”

He also explained: "The old man will know this. An old friend told him. Master You and the others were also sent by that old friend. That old friend's surname is Ouyang, and he comes from Ouyang's family in the capital."
