Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 559 The cold-faced judge who dared to be merciless without support, now gained power...

"Judge Gongsun is so good at predicting things, does this mean that he is confident that he can invite the Queen Mother's edict?"

Gongsun Zhao left the imperial city, did not go back to the Kaifeng government office, and went directly to Xiaotianshui Lane.

Guo Kai, who was following him on horseback, could not help frowning when he learned that a group of policemen were on standby there, staring at the target Taoyaofang, and reminded him kindly.

The internal officials who walk in the palace must have their hearts and minds. Guo Kai would definitely not be so impatient, so as not to spread the news to the Queen Mother, and make her feel that he is a stupid person who is easy to be manipulated. How could he be happy?

That's how Shang Chong spends time.

However, Gongsun Zhao's answer was: "Whether there is an edict or not, I will come here and search Taoyaofang thoroughly!"

Guo Kai was a little stunned: "The cold-faced judge lives up to his reputation, I understand!"

Gongsun Zhao nodded slightly, said nothing more, and ran with his whip.

Guo Kai followed behind, looking at the back of the one who took the lead in front of him, thought about whether he would be implicated, and looked forward to it inexplicably.

What kind of trouble will a cold-faced judge who dares to fight and rush without mercy without the support of the above-mentioned judge get the support of the Queen Mother?
Speeding up all the way, the two soon came to Xiaotianshui Lane. Outside the brothel street, which was obviously deserted during the day, Qiu Yuzuo appeared with the police: "I have seen the judge Gongsun, I have seen the internal officials, and the stalking outside Taoyaofang has been done." Arrangement is complete."

Guo Kai could see that this person had a close relationship with Gongsun Zhao, even though the other party was a servant, he nodded politely, and Gongsun Zhao directly began to recite the edict: "The queen mother has an edict, no matter what honor or position, anyone who has a relationship with Wuyou Cave Collusion will be severely punished according to the law, there will be no favoritism, no forgiveness, but if the thief resists, he will be killed!"

The shorter the edict, the bigger the matter, especially when the words were so cruel and utter. The arresters couldn't believe it at first, and then they were filled with ecstasy, and agreed in unison: "Yes!"

Gongsun Zhao began to make arrangements, speaking quickly and clearly, and his words were short and forceful: "Notify all the military patrols and shops in Xiaotianshui Lane to bring all the fire extinguishing tools. Once the fire breaks out, put it out immediately! Strictly guard all lanes , whenever there is a thief fleeing, the archer does not have to keep his hand, shoot and kill him!"

"Yes!"

All the arresters took orders again, their expressions were a little dazed when they dispatched.

Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, they have been lone wolves following Judge Gongsun for so long, and now they finally enjoy the feeling of being endorsed by their superiors...

What are you waiting for?
Kill the thief!Kill the thief!
Everyone acted vigorously and rushed straight to Taoyaofang.

Xiaotianshui Lane in the Northern Song Dynasty is equivalent to Pingkangfang in the Tang Dynasty. Due to the gathering of brothels, the flowers are becoming more and more attractive.

Compared with the Duzhi ladies in the Tang Dynasty, who were able to run their own businesses, the famous Huakui ladies in the Song Dynasty could not do this. They had to rely on brothels.

Because how many ladies there are in the building, how many red cards there are, and whether they are oirans, these are the important basis for distinguishing the grade of brothels, and the oiran is the most critical factor among them. .

Gradually, the oiran is not only about appearance and talent, but also the main force behind it becomes the key. Once an oiran is born, it can drive the business of the whole building. Since it is profitable, why not throw money at it?

So now, in theory, every red card has the qualifications to be an oiran, but Xiaomenxiaolou can only get a red card, but not an oiran, it is so realistic.

Taoyaofang is just such a "small door and small building". There are more than ten red card ladies, and the second-rate can be the roost, but it is not first-rate after all, and it cannot receive the real top dignitaries.

Even so, when standing in front of the Cailou Huanmen of this house, many arresters who had never been there before were shocked. The gatehouse was more than two feet high and wide, which was comparable to a small city gate. It is also decorated with silk flowers made of seven-color silk, which echoes the carved railings and painted buildings inside, and the multi-layered buildings are extremely magnificent.

Stepping into the Huanmen, the decoration impresses the eyes is elegant and clean. No matter the furniture, or the walls of the doors and windows, you can see the decoration of flowers everywhere. Going inside, there are also beautiful-eyed and affectionate women talking in twos and threes. The gaze cast was like a stream of autumn water, as if shooting out a thread of love, lingering around.

If it were any other police officer, the previous viciousness would inevitably soften a bit, but this time the police officer ignored it, and Gongsun Zhao even said directly: "Sure enough, you are guilty of a thief, and you actually let Miss Hou meet guests in the hall during the day? "

His voice reverberated in the room, like a sharp knife, cutting off the invisible threads of love. The complexions of those beautiful women who were exquisitely dressed changed slightly, and their eyes suddenly avoided.

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting colder, Gongsun Zhao continued to drink and asked, "Where's the bustard? Come out!"

Not long after the words were finished, footsteps sounded, and a middle-aged lady in her forties walked in.

The round and plump figure is eye-catching, and the spring-like smile on the face seems to dispel any hostility. When he came to the front, he bowed solemnly: "All the officials, come to my Taoyaofang. What is the important thing?"

Gongsun Zhao said: "I am Gongsun Zhao, the magistrate of the Kaifeng government office, are you a charming lady?"

The old lady showed surprise and saluted again: "It turned out to be a cold-faced judge. I paid my respects to Judge Gongsun. The judge's name is like a thunderbolt. I am here today. My Taoyaofang is really flourishing. I am lucky in my life. mother."

Compared to her compliments, Gongsun Zhao's tone was so cold that there was no ups and downs: "You are related to two important cases. One case happened the night before in the imperial hospital where Imperial Doctor Xue was murdered. The assailant, Xi Nu, was Miss Taoyaofang. According to her confession, you are the one who gave the order to kill Imperial Doctor Xue!"

There was deep surprise in Yiniang's brows, she covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Xinu actually slandered my concubine in such a way? God is sorry, she is also a red card lady. She can redeem herself as a concubine of Miracle Xue, or is she in it?" After so many dealings, isn’t this ungrateful? No wonder she murdered Imperial Physician Xue! How can you believe the words of such people? Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…

Gongsun Zhao ignored her hypocrisy at all, and continued: "Mei Qian, the shopkeeper of Tie Xue Lou, accuses you of being instigated by General Hou, colluding with Wuyoudong, buying and selling good women, forcing them into prostitution, hiding military rations privately, sending aid Thief, what else can you say?"

Yiniang lamented: "I am wronged! This concubine has never met the shopkeeper Namei, and it is impossible for me to associate with the thief in Wuyou Cave. How can I, a mere fake mother, afford all these accusations?"

Gongsun Zhao turned to the trembling prostitute, but he didn't dare to leave rashly: "What's the matter with these women? Do you pick up guests at Taoyaofang every day at this time?"

Yiniang had already prepared: "I will tell Judge Gongsun that it is because there are distinguished guests who are enjoying the entertainment in a private seat, and they have asked for a lady to accompany them, so the concubine wakes them up, dresses up, and waits to be summoned..."

Gongsun Zhao said coldly, "Let them come out to meet me."

Yiniang timidly said: "I hope Judge Gongsun will forgive me, these distinguished guests are officials, how dare I call them?"

Gongsun Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh? Are they all officials? According to you, you want me to see them?"

Yiniang lowered her head and said, "I dare not!"

He said he didn't dare, but in fact he was very daring. This old bustard, who was crying and frightened on the surface, was full of confidence deep in his eyes. He was not afraid of these menacing people from the Kaifeng government office. Lively, throwing winks, the atmosphere in the hall became sweet again.

In the past, it was not the first time that the police officers would be angry, but they dared not speak out, relying on their high official rank to obstruct Gongsun Zhao's handling of the case. In many cases, they had to retreat.

But this time, their eyes were full of anticipation, and Guo Kai, who was standing at the back, stood on tiptoe, wanting to see who the unlucky ones were, and at this time, he came up to support Taoyaofang.

Gongsun Zhao was not polite: "Lead the way, I want to meet the officials you mentioned!"

Yiniang curled her lips secretly, she didn't want a direct conflict, since Gongsun Zhao wanted to make fun of herself, of course she wouldn't stop her: "I will lead the way!"

The two came to the most luxurious box on the second floor, one behind the other, and saw a pleasant melody coming from inside, and a series of soft and charming figures were dancing. Sitting at the top were two officials in scarlet robes and a A white body.

In the Northern Song Dynasty, officials could not only look at the color of official robes, but also paid attention to dispatching, and these two backgrounds were not small, one was a doctor in charge of Xing prison in the Ministry of Punishment, and the other was a young minister of Dali Temple.

And that white body is also an acquaintance, it is Han Xiu, the former magistrate of the Kaifeng government office and the nephew of Han Zhongyan, the current minister's right servant.

The three of them were sitting in the banquet, enjoying the dance music, chatting a few words from time to time, and laughing lightly, but paid no attention to Gongsun Zhao who was very obvious standing at the door, as if this person did not exist.

There was a teasing look in Yiniang's eyes: "Judge Gongsun, the three honored guests are too focused, should I call them?"

Gongsun Zhao said: "No need, are these three your reliance? Are there any other officials?"

Yiniang was stunned for this confident question at first, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, but she calmed down again when she thought of the inextricable relationship behind these three people: "What is Judge Gongsun talking about, the three honored guests are just Come to my Taoyaofang to rest physically and mentally, it has nothing to do with anything else, but the concubine has indeed been wronged, and I hope Judge Gongsun will find out!"

Gongsun Zhaodao: "My clear conclusion is that both you and Taoyaofang are seriously suspected. You go back to the Kaifeng government office for trial, and I will thoroughly investigate inside and outside the workshop!"

Yiniang's tone became completely cold: "Since Judge Gongsun is so aggressive, I can't accompany you as a concubine!"

At the same time, Han Xiucai, among the three people in the room, looked over and said with a big laugh, "Yi Niang? What a waste of time with that ignorant person, why don't you hurry up and pour wine here!"

"coming!"

Yiniang responded with joy, and saluted for the third time, full of sarcasm: "Judge Gongsun, concubine Rong has been rude, please go back!"

Gongsun Zhao looked at her figure, his eyes flickered, and he directly reached out to grab Yiniang.

Ying Niang's figure floated forward, she avoided it very gracefully.

Gongsun Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly: "You thief, you really have good martial arts skills, how dare you directly resist arrest?"

Yiniang said leisurely: "Judge Gongsun was the first to act first, I don't want to be wronged for nothing, Liu Langzhong, Lu Shaoqing, Han Daguan, you must make decisions for this concubine!"

Liu Langzhong from the criminal department seemed to wake up from a dream, and looked over majestically: "Judge Gongsun, are you making trouble again? Why don't our criminal departments know about the case you want to investigate, or maybe we are eager to make a contribution and don't rush to report it Preparation? No wonder the murderer who killed the county king has not been tracked down so far, what should you do?"

Lu Shaoqing of Dali Temple stroked his beard, and said with a heartbroken voice: "Ren Zhengyan was overwhelmed by Judge Gongsun, and now he is seriously ill at home, and he can't move. Time is running out. I will cry when I see him. You didn't even come to knock on your head to ask for forgiveness from Mr. Ren, but instead came here to show off your power and criticize him harshly, what is your intention?"

Facing their questioning, Gongsun Zhao's reaction was that he didn't look at them at all, as if there were no two people in front of him, he just stared straight at Yiniang: "Since you resist arrest, don't blame me for being rude!"

Before Yiniang could respond, a sword chant suddenly came from her ear.

The Zijin sword on Gongsun Zhao's waist was out of its sheath, and he slashed towards Yiniang.

In the blink of an eye, Yiniang dodged the three swords again and again, until the fourth sword could no longer be avoided.

Swish!
She slowly fell to the ground, her eyes widened, and she let out an extremely shrill cry: "My foot... my hamstring was broken!!"

The Zijin sword flashed again, and the tendons in Yiniang's hands were cut off. Gongsun Zhao took out the cloth, pinched her mouth, and suppressed the screaming sound.

After executing the severe punishment for refusing to arrest the thief, Gongsun Zhao turned around, and his cold voice spread all over the place: "Search Taoyaofang thoroughly, prevent disasters and put out fires, and if there is resistance, there will be no mercy!"

"Yes!!"

There was a loud promise from below, and then the sound of footsteps spreading in all directions.

Until then, the three people in the box woke up like a dream, and Han Xiu was surprised and delighted: "Ha! Gongsun Zhao, how dare you do this! You are going to be finished!"

The Langzhong of the Ministry of Justice and the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who had been full of authority before, screamed, with distorted voices full of disbelief: "Gongsun Zhao, you dare to commit murder in person? Do you treat us as nothing?"

The real unbelievable is yet to come.

Gongsun Zhao turned around slowly, looking directly at them for the first time.

There is no argument, tit for tat.

Some are chanting the Queen Mother's imperial edict: "The Empress Dowager has an edict, no matter what honor or position, anyone who colludes with Wuyoudong will be severely punished according to the law, no favoritism, no forgiveness, and thieves who resist, they will be killed!"

Han Xiu's smile froze suddenly. The two senior officials first looked like clay sculptures, and then suddenly smiled, showing a sense of intimacy: "It turned out to be a misunderstanding... Haha, Judge Gongsun is really strict in law enforcement!"

Gongsun Zhao is indeed strict in enforcing the law, so strict that it can shock the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty:
"You are high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple. Wearing official robes of the imperial court, you come here to hide the filth and the filth, and shelter the thieves. You really know the law and break the law, and the crime is aggravated!"

"Now!"

"It's you who took off your official robes and followed me back to the Kaifeng government office for trial?"

"Or should I have someone strip off your official robes and drag them back for trial?"

　I have been sick for the past two days, and the update is sometimes delayed, sorry~
