Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 540 I live, you must live
Holding a dagger, Xu Zhiqiong cleaned up Chen Wanzong and Zhai Xiaozheng.

He has several things to ascertain.

First, who turned Bai Yueshan into this appearance?
Second, why did Long Xiulian spoil his comrades so much?

The third is whether the matter of the Queen Mother has anything to do with Long Xiulian?
These two people were almost skinned by Xu Zhiqiong, asking what to say.

Chen Wanzong said: "I came to the capital at the order of Dr. Sun Qianli. When I arrived in the capital, I went to Xiuxuan Teahouse.
Dr. Sun told me that if there is someone in the tea house who can play the piano, just treat him like an animal. If anyone dares to rescue him, he will be killed. If you meet someone named Ma Shangfeng, tell Dr. Sun immediately. "

From Chen Wanzong's words, it can be judged that it was Long Xiulian who killed Bai Yueshan. The reason why he didn't kill him and put him in the teahouse was because he wanted to use Bai Yueshan to lure Xu Zhiqiong here.

But what method Long Xiulian used to turn Bai Yueshan into an idiot, Chen Wanzong didn't know this.

Zhai Xiaozheng said: "I am Kong Changshi's subordinate. Dr. Sun asked Kong Changshi to come, and I followed him.
When we arrived at the tea house, Dr. Sun told us that the judges who came to the tea house to serve had committed crimes, and told me not to be soft on them.

According to Dr. Sun's rules, these criminal judges must come to the tea house to atone for their crimes, and let them act as cattle and horses, all in order to let them atone for their crimes as soon as possible. If they refuse to accept, they must be punished. After that, it must be eradicated, so that there will be no future troubles. "

Xu Zhiqiong asked: "How many comrades have you killed?"

Zhai Xiaozheng said: "We don't want to kill our comrades, this is all in accordance with Dr. Sun's rules..."

Xu Zhiqiong stepped forward and cut off one of his ears, and Zhai Xiaozheng cried, "I killed four, and Chen Wanzong killed seven!"

Chen Wanzong glared at Zhai Xiaozheng fiercely, then lowered his head in fear: "The injustice has its head, and the debt has its owner. This matter cannot be blamed on us."

The corners of Xu Zhiqiong's eyes trembled, and he asked, "How many comrades are left in the capital? Don't say that there are only twenty people left!"

Chen Wanzong said: "We haven't moved much about the judges of the ninth rank. Their foundation in the Taoist sect is not deep. If they hide and don't show their faces, it will be difficult for us to find them.

Some of the judges of the seventh and eighth grade were sent to the tea house, and a few ran away with Zhuo Linger and Cao Zhongjie, and the rest..."

Xu Zhiqiong gritted his teeth and said, "You all killed them?"

Chen Wanzong lowered his head and said, "This is Dr. Sun's rule."

Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "How many other sixth-grade Zhonglang?"

"Each of them fled, and their whereabouts are unknown. Dr. Sun said that after a while, they will be removed from their names and let the local authorities punish the criminals."

Xu Zhiqiong clenched his fists, pondered for a moment, but still couldn't figure out Long Xiulian's intentions.

His purpose in doing this was to make the judges in the capital extinct.

Is it because the judge in the capital is disobedient and he wants to change a group of people?

Then there is no need to kill them all, right?

Xu Zhiqiong turned around and asked Lu Yanyou: "Long Xiulian obviously wanted to destroy the Taoist sect by doing this. Isn't this a violation of the Taoist sect's rules?"

Lu Yanyou shook his head and said: "I've thought about this too, and I also think that the rules of our school can't tolerate him, but after being a judge for so many years, I found that the rules of our school don't care about deeds,
Long Xiulian did a lot of bad things, but no matter what his purpose was, he did it within the rules. You know that Sanpin Zhongzai can't kill people at will, right? "

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "You can't kill people with criminal karma below two feet."

Lu Yanyou nodded and said: "Long Xiulian never kills people with criminal karma below two feet, and he never kills his comrades."

"So many comrades died at his hands, isn't that counted as killing comrades?"

Lu Yanyou said: "It depends on how you say it. The comrades who were killed by him were all expelled by him."

Xu Zhiqiong was speechless for a while.

No wonder it is called the dictatorial slaughter, the power of this dictatorial slaughterer is too great!
Lu Yanyou sighed: "I don't know who made the rules, and I don't know who will enforce the rules. I always feel that there are some deficiencies in the rules, and some things should be more detailed."

No matter how detailed it is, people like Long Xiulian are too good at taking advantage of loopholes.

Chen Wanzong cried: "We have said everything we should say, and we all know that we are wrong. From now on, we will follow Ma Changshi loyally, and we will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Xu Zhiqiong said with surprise on his face: "Is this really true? Are you really going through fire and water?"

The two replied in unison: "Really!"

Xu Zhiqiong turned around and said to Lu Yanyou: "Lu Changshi, please cook a pot of hot soup!"

The two wailed: "Ma Changshi, we are loyal to you, you spare our lives!"

Xu Zhiqiong smiled and said, "Aren't you talking about going through fire and water? Let's discuss it later, should we go through the fire first and then the fire, or fire before the soup, you two bastards, you want to survive after killing so many comrades?"

"Ma Changshi, forgive us, we really know we were wrong!"

"Let me ask you, where is Long Xiulian now?"

"No, I don't know..." The two of them really didn't know.

"What is the relationship between Long Xiulian and the Empress Dowager?"

"I don't know about this."

Neither of them really knew.

Never mind, someone knows.

Kong Shengwei will definitely go to find Sun Qianli, Xu Zhiqiong just needs to wait for Sun Qianli's reply.

Not long after, Lu Yanyou brought a large pot, and quickly cooked a pot of boiling hot soup.

Xu Zhiqiong rolled up his sleeves, looked at Chen Wanzong and Zhai Xiaozheng with a smile: "You two, if you don't open your mouth, let's start with soup!
Lu Changshi, please call Wang Yaner and Zhao Baijiao over. "

Not long after, two judges came.

Xu Zhiqiong took a spoon and scooped up the boiling soup: "Yan'er, Baijiao, how many times have you been beaten by them?"

Wang Yan'er said in a low voice, "I can't remember that."

"Why can't you remember?" Zhao Baijiao said angrily, "We refused to stay with you last night, each of us received thirty lashes, and the injuries are still there!"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "I'll open their mouths, and each of you will feed them thirty spoonfuls of soup first."

……

At the moment, Sun Qianli was busy punishing the criminals, silently watching Li Muliang, the chief clerk.

"Li Changshi, if we talk too much, we will hurt our peace. I came to Qian Zhonglang just to ask him to go to the capital to ask a few things. There is absolutely no malicious intention."

Li Muliang smiled and said: "If you have any questions, you might as well ask me. If I can explain clearly, I can explain clearly to Dr. Sun here."

Sun Qianli pondered for a moment and said, "There are some things that Li Changshi may not know."

"He is my subordinate. I know everything about him in the Daoist sect. As for the private affairs outside the Daoist sect, I don't ask, and neither should others."

"I came here on the order of Long Zhongzai, Li Changshi, you are so stubborn, is it possible that even Mr. Zhongzai doesn't pay attention to it?" Sun Qianli's tone changed.

"Even if Mr. Zukazai stood in front of him and wanted to take Qian Limu away, he still had to tell me why." Li Muliang didn't give in at all.

"Li Changshi, if I can't take Qian Limu with me today, I won't leave either." Sun Qianli's tone was slightly murderous.

"It's fine if you don't leave, we are old acquaintances, and stay with me for two days." Li Muliang's tone was indifferent, without any fear.

The words are still polite, but the thoughts of both sides are focused on the other side, and if you don't pay attention, one side will attack.

When the sword was on the verge of breaking out, Zhou Qinglin, the seventh-rank judge, entered the room, clasped his fists and said, "Doctor Sun, Shi Kong Shengwei, the head of the capital punishment department, is asking to see you."

Kong Shengwei is here?
What is he here for?

Sun Qianli was stunned for a moment, then turned to Li Muliang and said, "Being entangled in trifles, Rong will return as soon as he leaves."

When he went out of the room and saw Kong Shengwei, Sun Qianli frowned and said, "If you're not staying in the capital, why do you come here to see me?"

Kong Shengwei went up to whisper a few words, Sun Qianli was startled, and angrily reprimanded: "You bastard, why provoke them?"

Kong Shengwei shook his head and said, "How could this subordinate provoke such evil spirits? I still don't know why they came here!"

Sun Qianli didn't say any more, and returned to the room, and said to Li Muliang: "Li Changshi, Zai Longzhong has mentioned you many times, and he values ​​you very much. Just hand over Qian Zhonglang to me today, and reward the good doctor." The job belongs to you!"

Li Muliang smiled and said: "Li Mou's virtue is not good enough, he can't take up this important position, please tell Zai Zuo to find another virtuous person."

"Okay, let's see how long you will be tyrannical, leave!" Sun Qianli left angrily.

After he left the Evil Punishment Division, Qian Limu walked up to Li Muliang: "Li Changshi, don't protect Qian anymore. I'm afraid I won't be able to escape this calamity."

"What nonsense!" Li Muliang punched Qian Limu, "I can't let you die if I'm alive. If I die, you have to let the brothers live! If the law of heaven is still there, I don't believe in Long Xiulian." Can cover the sky with one hand!"

……

Sun Qianli and Kong Shengwei returned to the capital punishment department, and then went to Xiuxuan Tea House in Chengfeng Tower.

The teahouse has been sealed off, and the two sneaked into the teahouse, only to see a mess everywhere.

Sun Qianli murmured: "The Lantern Lang's incident for no reason must have something to do with Ma Shangfeng. Have you gone to Commander Xiong?"

"I did. He doesn't want to see me."

Sun Qianli sighed: "Forget it, let's get rid of my old face!"

……

At night, Sun Qianli went to the mansion of Xiong Jinkang, the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division.

Xiong Jinkang was in the mansion, holding two newly-accepted concubines, drinking. Hearing that Zheng Baoshou (Sun Qianli's name of Fanchen) wanted to see him, he waved to the servants and said, "Let's just say I'm not here."

The servant informed Sun Qianli, and Sun Qianli said with a smile: "Your Excellency is not here, I will wait for him to come back."

The weather was winter and moon, it was freezing cold, and when it was snowing, Sun Qianli really had the perseverance to stand in the snow for two hours.

Xiong Jinkang really couldn't exhaust him, and didn't want to offend this man, so he ordered his servants: "Let him in."

Sun Qianli entered the mansion and was led to the study by his servants. When he saw Xiong Jinkang, he presented the gift before he could wipe off the frost and snow all over his body.

He brought Xiong Jinkang five hundred taels of silver.

It was not the first time that Xiong Jinkang accepted a gift from him, and Sun Qianli thought that this time he would not be polite to him either.

But he was wrong, Xiong Jinkang refused to accept: "Baoshou, I know why you came here, but I can't help you with this matter."

There are three deputy commanders in the Imperial City Department, and Xiong Jinkang has the highest status.

Just let him let go of a few people, it shouldn't be that difficult.

It is estimated that there is too little money.

"Commander, with this little money, I just want to get some information from you. We just want to know who it fell into. When we really ask for your help, we will give you another gift."

Xiong Jinkang looked at the five hundred taels of silver, and couldn't bear to give it up, but he still didn't dare to accept it: "I don't know the inside story here."

Sun Qianli said: "It's hard for you to say, let me guess, is this related to Xu?"

Xiong Jinkang shook his head and said: "This matter has nothing to do with Yunhou, he is still in Yu Xianguo."

Sun Qianli was puzzled: "Our shopkeeper had a little feud with Yunhou before, but if this matter has nothing to do with Yunhou, we really can't think of who we offended. Commander, please help us."

Looking at the silver, Xiong Jinkang couldn't move his eyes away, and reminded: "This matter is related to the affairs in the palace. Qiao Shun just arrested him, and none of us can intervene. Do you understand?"
