Chapter 30Conviction

A group of yamen servants blushed, hurriedly picked up the stinky shoes, and stretched out their hands to fumble inside.

But in the blink of an eye, there was indeed a harvest, and two thin pieces of paper were found.

Seeing that the stolen goods had been searched out, the soldiers and generals who were watching burst into applause that resounded all over the sky.

The yamen servants hurriedly held the two pieces of thin paper and carefully presented them to Sun Qi.

Sun Qi lowered his head and took a look. It was exactly two hundred taels of silver bills.

From the two bank notes, a strong foot odor emanated straight into Sun Qi's nose, making him frown.

Sun Qi hurriedly pinched his nose, waved his hand and said, "Send this bank note to the bank, and compare it with Diao Gui's receipt record, and don't make any mistakes."

The two yamen servants took the order and went to the bank with the smelly bank notes.

And at this moment, Diao Gui was thrown to the ground by Zhou Hao, like a defeated rooster, limp on the ground, no trace of anger could be seen on his ashen face.

It's no wonder, according to Beiyan's military law, greedy for ten taels of silver, fifty taels of silver for 50 taels of silver, exile for three thousand miles, greedy for one hundred taels of silver, beheading for public display

This Diao Gui was under the cover of Zhang Ba before, and he usually did petty theft, as long as it wasn't too much, no one would take him seriously.Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Ba left the military barracks, Diao Gui fell into a big somersault, and I'm afraid he couldn't even keep his head

After a while, the two yamen servants came back with silver bills in their hands, bowed in front of Sun Qi and said, "Lord Sima, after comparing these two silver bills, it was Diao Gui who just took them out of the bank."

Now, Diao Gui's charges are confirmed. No matter how hard his backstage is, he will not be able to turn the sky over.

But Sun Qi was not in the joyful mood of finding out the truth at this time. After all, Diao Gui was Zhang Ba's brother-in-law, and by doing this, he could completely offend Zhang Ba to death.

Not only that, but Sun Qi is Diao Gui's direct superior, and if it comes to responsibility, he can't get away with it.

But even so, the Zhou Hao in front of him is the personal guard in front of the general, and he can't afford to offend him.

If he really dared to cover up this Diaogui, all he needed was Zhou Hao to stab the general in front of him, and Diaogui would not be the only one who would lose his head

Sun Qi frowned, thought for a while, and ordered: "Send Diaogui and the stolen goods to the opposite punishment hall, and wait for my officer to report to the general before we deal with it."

Then he said to Zhou Hao: "Zhou Qinwei, follow me to see the general after all, you are the person involved, and only you know the process best."

Zhou Hao nodded and said, "Okay."

Zhou Hao followed Sun Qi to the middle courtyard where Xue Wanche was.Along the way, Sun Qi turned his head several times, wanting to say something to Zhou Hao, but na na didn't know how to say it.

After all, it was his subordinates who committed the crime, no matter what, Sun Qi would have to bear the charge of appeasement and carelessness.If the general was furious and rewarded him with dozens of military sticks, he could only bear it.

So Sun Qi turned around several times, wanting Zhou Hao to say something nice in front of the general.But Sun Qi, who is a scholar, couldn't get rid of this face for a while.

Seeing Sun Qi's embarrassing expression of hesitating to speak several times, Zhou Hao couldn't understand what was going on in his heart, so he smiled and said, "Master Sima, thank you for clearing up my innocence this time, boy Here I would like to thank Master Sima for not being afraid of the powerful, for reporting the case, I will definitely report to the general one by one."

Sun Qi heaved a long sigh of relief when he heard this, and cupped his hands gratefully to Zhou Hao, and said, "Zhou Qinwei, this haha, you and I are under the tent of the general, so we should work together to make my brother grow older. If you need help with anything, Brother Zhou Hao just asks."

Zhou Hao also cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty Sima, you are welcome."

When the two of them came to the residence of the great general, Zhou Hao, who was a personal guard, naturally didn't need to report, and just went straight in with his head held high.But Sun Qi was stopped by the soldiers standing guard at the door.

Zhou Hao said to Sun Qi: "My lord, wait a moment, I will report to the general."

Sun Qi, who was standing anxiously at the gate of the yard, hurriedly said, "Take care of Brother Zhou Hao."

Zhou Hao turned around and walked into the yard, and went straight to the study.

When he got outside the study, Zhou Hao said loudly: "General, Zhou Hao has something to report."

"Oh? Why did you come back so soon, kid? Let me in"

Zhou Hao stepped into the study room, only to see that General Xue was still holding the ancient book, looking at it engrossed.

"General, I am going to Shanggong Building, and I have encountered a matter, which needs to be decided by the General himself."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Xue Wanche put down the ancient book and asked with great interest.

Therefore, Zhou Hao told the whole story of what happened just now.

"Pa" Xue Wanche slapped the desk heavily with his big hand in a rage after listening to Zhou Hao's speech.The thick nanmu desk suddenly sank deeply into a palm print.

"I hate corrupt officials the most in my life, and there are still people who dare to play tricks under my nose." Xue Wanche roared, his huge voice shook the bookshelves around him.

"He actually stretched his hand into Lao Tzu's barracks, who gave his mother the guts?"

"That guy Zhang Ba dared to carry me behind my back and engage in these petty thefts. I should have kicked him out long ago."

"Also, what does Sun Qi do? With such a filthy subordinate, he didn't know how to clean up the house, and let that guy bully me on the head of my personal guard? How did he become an official?"

Xue Wanche was so furious that he roared again and again, and his voice spread far away.Even Sun Qi, who was standing outside the courtyard, could hear it clearly, and was so frightened that he trembled all over, and almost collapsed to the ground.

Dao Scar, who had been standing quietly by the side, quickly persuaded: "General, calm down, general, calm down. This world is as black as crows, and there will be people who are greedy for money. In our Liaodong Army, although there are such greedy people, they are very few. Not to mention, this kind of thing is impossible to completely ban, seeing the big battle is imminent, you must not get too angry and implicate too much."

Only an old brother who has followed Xue Wanche for more than [-] years dares to say such things at this time, to persuade him.

Xue Wanche was worthy of the demeanor of a general. After being persuaded by Scar, he immediately calmed down, but his anger still lingered.

"Haozi, you are the person involved, how do you think this matter should be handled?" Xue Wanche asked angrily.

Zhou Hao was taken aback for a moment, he thought it was something that General Xue had to say, but he didn't expect that there was still room for his own opinion.

Zhou Hao hesitated slightly and said: "I just joined the army for a few days, and I can't even memorize the military law. What can I say? But I think Brother Scar is right. I'm about to fight with the Fusang people. I'm afraid it will be too involved. Not good. That Diaogui is certainly hateful, but I think Mr. Sun Qi and other officials are honest and self-disciplined people who can judge cases impartially, and the soldiers will not complain about them at all. Although General Zhang Ba is related to Diaogui, I am afraid I don't necessarily know Diao Gui's filth. It's better to only punish Diao Gui."

"Hmph, you're a magnanimous kid. You were wronged outside, and instead of asking me to vent your anger on you, you still want to speak for them," Xue Wanche snorted coldly.

Zhou Hao chuckled and said, "It's nothing for me to be wronged, don't let it affect the general's plan for the expedition."

"Hmph, I don't know if you're really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. If you take this opportunity to add fuel to the flames and stir up the flames, I might really take care of all the people involved. From now on, you will Among the hundreds of thousands of Liaodong Army, who doesn’t know Hao’s name? On the border of Liaodong County, you won’t be allowed to walk sideways by then? But you just want to pretend to be a good person.”

"Prestige is achieved by punching with your own fists, and fame is earned by killing the enemy with all your might. It can't be achieved only by the favor of the general," Zhou Hao raised his brows.

Hearing this, Xue Wanche stared at Zhou Hao with brilliance in his eyes, and said after a while: "Forget it, you kid is right, go and call that Sun Qi in."
