Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 48 The mastermind behind the scenes
"How can it be so cheap to hit someone and then leave." One of the young men sneered.

Yuan Wenshao ignored him, grabbed Sun Hao who was still about to say something, turned around and wanted to leave.

At this moment, a group of government officials rushed over and surrounded several people.

The leader of the team asked, "What's going on?"

Yuan Wenshao sighed secretly: "One link after another, it really was calculated."

At first he was only a little skeptical, but now he is sure that the three of them did it on purpose.

I just don't know who the mastermind behind the scenes is, whether they are running after him, or after Sun Hao or Ding Guogong.

But Yuan Wenshao didn't worry too much, it was just a fight. There were so many Lord Bianjing families, fights were not uncommon, and they usually just lost some money, not a big deal.

Even if there is someone behind them, just being charged with beating someone will not be able to stop them.

Thinking of this, Yuan Wenshao calmed down. He wanted to see what kind of medicine these people were selling in their gourds.

"This man committed crimes in the street and beat Mr. Han's nephew. He is absolutely lawless. Quickly arrest them!" said a young master.

"You guys were the ones who spoke rudely first, and what did you say that you have a title, so what? It's just one thing. Can Mr. Han's nephew insult the nobles of the whole world?" Yuan Wenshao said coldly.

The head catcher said loudly: "Okay, stop arguing, come with me to the government office, and Mr. Fu Yin will make the decision!"

"I am Uncle Zhongyong Yuan Wenshao, and these two are Sun Hao, the son of Duke Dingguo, and Liu Lei, the grandson of Marquis Jingyong. All three of us have military positions, and the cases involved should be handled by the Privy Council, and the local government has no right to deal with them." Yuan Wenshao said calmly. .

In fact, Yuan Wenshao also thought about sending these three young men to the Privy Council at first to take advantage of them.

But after thinking about it, I gave up.

First of all, if the other party is really plotting against them, they must have prepared a backhand.

Secondly, the privy envoy who is in charge of the Privy Council is a civil servant. Although the British public has the title of Deputy Envoy of the Privy Council, they have no real power in the Privy Council.

Even if you go to the Privy Council, you may not be able to find a bargain.

But now the police officer leading the team wants to take them back to the government office, so naturally he can't go.

The head catcher grinned, cupped his hands and said, "It turned out that Uncle Zhongyong was face to face, a little impolite. But according to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the case is determined as the victim. These three people are citizens. According to the regulations, there should be a government office to try them. Then the results will be reported to the Privy Council. If the Privy Council thinks it is unreasonable, the case can be handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice or Dali Temple for retrial. Therefore, I would like to trouble the uncle and the three of you to go with the young one."

Yuan Wenshao's face was gloomy. He naturally knew this rule.

The reason for this is to prevent partiality.

But no one took this rule seriously.

"What should Erlang do now? How about I send someone to the British government to seek help?" Liu Lei whispered.

His grandfather Liu De was originally a subordinate of the British Duke. Later, the British Duke was transferred back to Bianjing to serve as the commander-in-chief of the western suburbs camp, and his grandfather was also transferred to the northwest.

But this relationship is still there. Before coming to Bianjing, his grandfather told him that if he really encountered any serious trouble, he could seek help from the British government.

Yuan Wenshao muttered: "Don't worry, let's see what their purpose is first."

Now the other party is just handling the case normally, so what if they ask the British official to come?
"We'll go with you," Yuan Wenshao said.

"Everyone please!"

The catcher knew that the identities of these people were not simple, so he was very polite.

Not long after, both parties were taken to the government office.

It's not a big deal in itself, and they didn't take them to the lobby, but placed both parties in a side room.

"Uncle, the three of you take a break, and the younger one will go and inform the Lord Fu Yin. If you need anything, you can just tell the yamen servant at the door, but you must not leave the house."

After the head catcher finished speaking, he left the house.

……

"Brother Han, is your injury okay? Do you want to see a doctor first?"

"Hiss, that kid is really ruthless."

Brother Han patted the wound on his face, took a breath of air in pain, and said viciously: "Brother Xue, please go back and ask your father to take care of them, otherwise I won't be able to swallow this breath."

"Brother Han, I'm afraid this is a bit difficult to handle. It won't be long before this matter spreads throughout Bianjing. The identities of the three of them are not simple, and it's not easy for my father to do anything." Xue Cheng was confused.

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a man in his forties wearing a scarlet official uniform walked in.

"Cheng'er is right. This matter is difficult to handle. Don't think about revenge. Otherwise, you will miss the Grand Master's plan. Don't blame me for not reminding you."

The person who came was none other than Xue Qi, the governor of Kaifeng, and the father of Xue Cheng, one of the three young masters.

"Uncle Xue, don't worry, we know the seriousness. I don't know when we can leave?" Han Wei asked.

"There's no rush, wait until I go see them, and then you can leave. Things went well this time. It's best to stay at home these days, understand?" Xue Qi said.

"Uncle Xue, don't worry. But I want to ask what will happen to those three people?" Han Wei asked.

"Don't inquire about what you shouldn't inquire about." Xue Qi said, casting a glance at him.

Han Wei is just Han Zhang's nephew, and he is not too polite.

"Uncle Xue is teaching you." Han Wei said with a smile as the anger flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll go over and meet them."

Xue Qi said and left the room, and soon came to the room where the three of Yuan Wenshao were.

"I've met Mr. Fu Yin." The two officials at the door saluted quickly.

"Open the door."

"Yes."

The officer responded and quickly opened the door.

Xue Qi adjusted his hat, put a smile on his face, and walked in.

"I've seen Mr. Xue!"

When Yuan Wenshao and the others saw Xue Qi walking in, they quickly stood up and saluted.

The prefects of Great Zhou were all from the third rank, while the prefects of Kaifeng were from the second rank.

Xue Qi had a warm smile on his face, waved his hand and said: "No need to be polite, I already understand the case and come here to talk to you."

"Lord Xue, although we are wrong to beat people, but the other party said that there is a noble in his body, but he is just a bastard. This statement not only scolded us, but even the nobles in the world were scolded by him. It is wrong to calculate, I don’t know. What does Master Xue plan to do?" Yuan Wenshao asked.

"There is such a thing? I don't know if there is evidence?" Xue Qi said with a look of surprise.

"At that time, there were quite a few people watching, Master Xue sent someone to investigate." Yuan Wenshao said.

Xue Qi smiled and said: "I will send someone to check it out right now. If this is really the case, everyone is at fault, so it would be easy to handle."

Yuan Wenshao heard another meaning from Xue Qi's words, and asked, "Master Xue, what if there are no witnesses?"

Xue Qi looked confused: "This is a bit difficult to handle. Logically speaking, this kind of thing is not a big deal. Basically, you can just pay some money. But the person who was beaten was the nephew of Han Daxiangong. He Now that I have refused to let go and am unwilling to accept compensation, I am also in a difficult position."

"It really is Han Zhang's handwriting."

Yuan Wenshao was a little skeptical when he heard that the son's surname was Han.

However, he quickly dispelled this idea. Han Zhang is the head of all officials, and he should not use such small means to deal with them.

Now it seems that he thought things a bit too simply. If it weren't for Han Zhang's instigation, most people wouldn't be able to control Xue Qi, the governor of Kaifeng.
