Chapter 70 Relationships
Of course Zhao Mingzhi knew that Li Xun did not have a sister, and he did not intend to fabricate the identity of the sister.

Before saving lives, protect yourself first.

Right now Li Xun is framed by someone, and what is going on in the yamen is unknown for the time being. Regardless of whether he has any family members at the moment, even if he does, if he uses the name of "family" to investigate, if he is implicated, he will be detained together, and he will not save anyone. , but also take another one in.

What's more, she traveled westward all the way, and she had her own document on her body. Although she was not afraid of the government's inspection, the surname in the document was not Li after all.

But who said that a foreign surname cannot be a family member?

Stepping on the snow, Zhao Mingzhi asked the bodyguard to stay outside, carefully read the notice posted outside the yamen, and then went straight into the main entrance, and then into the Yimen.

There are two wing rooms on one side of Yimen, one on the left and the other on the right, and there are officials in each of them.

Zhao Mingzhi found a room at random, walked in and said, "This official, if you want to report to the official, what procedures should you go through?"

Seeing Zhao Mingzhi, the man raised his head to look behind her, but there was only one person coming, so he asked, "Which official do you want to report to? Do you have a pleading paper?"

Zhao Mingzhi shook his head and said, "There is no paperwork - I'll report missing."

He continued: "There is a man called Li Xun, who originally belonged to Junzhou's 'Li's Escort Bureau', who was taken away by four people in official uniforms in Xu's house in Bifeng Lane at the beginning of this morning at the beginning of the morning—that he was in collusion with bandits... ..."

The official was stunned, put down the pen holder in his hand, looked up at Zhao Mingzhi, and then looked at the little official next door, seeing that the other party was only buried in copying, Fu was relieved, and turned his head back again.

Zhao Mingzhi said again: "Although I think that Li Xun will not commit such a serious crime, but after all, the person who came here is the official of the yamen, so he will not do anything wrong. It seems that someone made a false accusation, so he dare not go forward to stop him. He is ready to wait for the yamen to find out. Be clear, and you will be cleared."

"However, when the man leaves, I will ask someone to help inquire about it. I want to send some bedding to Li Xun in prison. For some reason, I come and go, but there is no such person."

In a few words, she made things clear.

"Thinking about it now, the incident happened in a hurry this morning, and the four officials arrested Li Xun in a hurry without showing the official arrest document."

"This situation is really unbelievable. I can only come to the Yamen to report to the officials. If those four are the officials of the Yamen, I will come to check the official document of approving the arrest, and then ask where Li Xun is now. What is the reason for the arrest but not arrest?" , so we can make another plan.”

"If those four are not yamen officials—they are pretending to be officials if they act like this. Should they be arrested and brought to justice before being punished?"

After putting forward several conjectures, Zhao Mingzhi stood still and waited for the other party to answer.

The official opened his mouth a few times, and wanted to ask questions, but found that all the questions he wanted to ask had already been answered in the words of the person opposite, even if he wanted to be perfunctory, he couldn't do it.

He saw that Zhao Mingzhi wanted to "approve the arrest document" and punish the so-called "fake official servant" when he opened his mouth, and his attitude was calm and composed, he didn't look like he was here to report to the official - he was clearly here to sue the official!

Although according to the rules of the yamen, the arrest approval document must be issued before arresting the suspect, and then the tolerance will go to the arrest with the document and show it to the arrested person, but how can ordinary people know this thing!
Just now when he heard the word "Li Xun", his heart skipped a beat. At this moment, he looked Zhao Mingzhi up and down, and seeing that it was unfamiliar, he asked, "What is your last name, and what does it have to do with Li Xun?"

Zhao Mingzhi reported his surname, and said, "He is my fiancée."

The official was stunned for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Is Li Xun your fiancé-in-law?"

But after he finished speaking, he seemed to regret his slip of the tongue, turned his head to look at the next door, stood up again and closed the door slightly, and came back and said: "The Li's bodyguard agency is very famous in Junzhou, but no one has heard that the head of the family has got married..."

Zhao Mingzhi nodded and said: "He seldom comes back, but the letter of appointment has been issued, and the six ceremonies have been completed. If you want to check, you might as well send someone to my hometown—it is in Caizhou City, and you can find it out."

After she finished speaking, she took a guide from her waist in her hand, opened it and placed it on the table, and pointed to the place of origin.

The official went to inspect the guide for a while. After looking at it for a long time, he couldn't find any problem.

Zhao Mingzhi waited for a while, and then asked: "Dare to ask the official, can you find the arrest approval document for me to look at? My family has already found him to be a son-in-law. If he is accused of being falsely accused, we must prepare to hire a lawyer. If you have the evidence, you will be able to clear the suspicion, and if there is such a thing, you must also have the evidence, so that you can find a matchmaker on the day and give up the marriage."

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, just looked at the official patiently, and waited for his reply.

And the official's eyes flickered, and he said: "Miss Zhao, don't worry, sit down for a while, I'll ask someone to see what's going on."

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Mingzhi's guide on the table again, and then hurried out the door.

He trotted all the way to the back office, turned into a public room, knocked on the door twice hurriedly, heard the word "come in", and then pushed the door open. Once he entered, he saw a person sitting behind a desk, and hurriedly He stepped forward and said: "Zhao Yasi, a woman came outside, looking for Li Xun - said to be his fiancée from Caizhou!"

On the opposite side, Zhao Yasiben was having tea and reading the mansion newspaper. When he heard this, he was shocked for a moment and asked, "Fiancee? When did Li Xun's fiancee come?"

The little official panicked: "How would I know! Look at that appearance, it's very difficult to dismiss!"

He talked about Zhao Mingzhi's words and deeds, and then said: "The person who is sitting with me today is Hu Si, who was judged by Xie Tong to be a bad foot, and he is waiting to catch me in the wrong place. The same surname Xie said, what should I do?!"

Zhao Yasi frowned and said, "What should I do? How many people are there this time? If there are not many people, you can try to send them out. If there are many people, you can comfort them and press them again. , this matter can be settled tonight."

The little official stomped his feet and said, "What's the deal? That person is not a fuel-efficient lamp—she came alone, with no family members around her. Li Xun was arrested early in the morning, and only an hour later, the prison has already been visited. , Now ask me to approve the arrest papers! And ask me what it means to arrest someone but not to be detained!"

Before he finished speaking, he was sweating profusely.

Zhao Yasi said impatiently: "Approving the arrest documents? You just say that the person in charge of the documents is not here today, and ask her to come back tomorrow—do you need me to teach you?"

He said again: "As for being imprisoned..."

It was only when he said this that he came to his senses and asked in puzzlement, "What do you mean arresting someone but not putting them in custody?"

The little official wiped his face with cold sweat and said: "Just as I was about to ask the abbot, the woman said that she would go to the prison to inquire. She asked all over the place, but she didn't see anyone—then where did Li Xun go?"

Zhao Yasi had always been unhurried. Hearing this, he just put down the teacup in his hand and rang the bell to call someone in. He ordered: "Send someone to the prison to see where Li Xun is. One room, and then ask if things have been arranged properly for tonight."

When the person left, he said to the little official: "What are you panicking about! You all know that she is from another county in another prefecture. If a strong dragon does not overwhelm a snake, what use is it? Maybe it's because no one in the prison is willing to talk to her. If you can't hear it."

He said again: "It's that Li Xun who hasn't come back for several years, isn't he also deaf and blind, and he was arrested and put in prison?"
