Chapter 481 An Acquaintance Appears

With Li Er by his side, Su Ran finally slept peacefully again.

But at the same time, there were several households in the capital whose lights were not turned off all night.

The next day, Li Er went to Shuntian Mansion again to assist the officials of Shuntian Mansion to deal with the follow-up of the bandit suppression.

There were 60 to [-] robbers in that group, and the bandit leader was Jiang Yang who had been hunted down by the court for many years.He murders and robs goods, commits all kinds of crimes, and has committed many sporadic cases in various places over the years.But because of his cunning nature, he was never caught by the government.Until now, he brought a group of gangsters to the capital to do evil!

The impact of this matter is very bad, and many children and girls have been raped, so the public resentment boils.Early in the morning, not only the people who had lost their children ran to the gate of Shuntian Mansion to pick up their children, but also other people who were filled with righteous indignation gathered around the gate of Shuntian Mansion, shouting to kill these Jiangyang thieves!
There was a lot of noise at one time.

Especially when this group of gangsters were pulled out for trial, the anger of the people reached its peak. They almost broke through the guards of the officials and rushed in to kill them!

Although the bandit leader is a gangster, the underlings are a bunch of mobs after all.Seeing the raging public outrage outside, they were all trembling with fright.Soon, some people couldn't bear it anymore.

"Master Qingtian, I beg you to make the decision for the little one! The little one was forced to follow him, and the little one has never done anything bad! By the way, the little one knows two things, and the little one can make meritorious deeds!" A thin figure suddenly moved forward a few steps, and then yelled at the top of his voice.

Shuntian Fu Yin frowned: "What two things do you know? Let me tell you first."

"My lord, please promise first. If the little one says it, you will make the little one pay for it." The man shouted.

"Presumptuous!" Shuntian Fu Yin slapped the gavel heavily, "I give you a chance, how dare you bargain with me? The news you want to give is true, and it will make a great contribution to the imperial court. Don't give you a chance to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds?"

That person was finally relieved, and he was about to speak.

However, before he could speak, the bandit leader in front turned his head and gave him a cold look.Although he didn't speak, his eyes that were as cold as sharpened boning knives still made people shiver.

The man paused, hurriedly crawled forward again, and said loudly: "My lord, I know that the reason why they can do whatever they want in the capital these days is because they spent money to buy two secret agents in the court." , the identity of the spy is not low. Although the little one doesn't know who they are now, but the little one knows how to find them!"

This news is indeed worth making him pay off his merits!

Upon hearing this, Yin Shuntian's eyes brightened immediately: "How to find a way, tell me!"

"I know that there is someone among them who is dedicated to contacting them." The man spoke, turned his head and scanned the crowd, and immediately pointed to a confidant of the bandit leader, "That's him!"

"Come here, arrest this man, torture him, and make him tell who the spy in the imperial court is!" Shuntian Fu Yin immediately ordered.

Then he asked the man again: "The first thing is this, what about the second thing?"

"Second... the little one remembers that there is a treasure house on Phoenix Mountain, and there are many gold and silver treasures in it, which they have looted from outside over the years. But the exact location, only Boss Wang knows I vaguely remember that in the few days before the government came to encircle us, he ran to the south every day. He always went in the middle of the night and returned in the morning."

After Shun Tianfu Yin finished listening, he was so excited that his hair almost stood on end!

Of course he knew that usually such a vicious gangster would have a treasury, and the treasures accumulated in it were all the treasures he left behind during the years of robbery.But it was hidden, and no one knew about that place except the bandit leader.However, this bandit leader is different from ordinary people in terms of physical fitness and willpower, and he cannot be tortured by torture.So he didn't have much hope for this matter until now.

However, if according to what this person said now... If I can ask someone to find the treasure house, then I will have made a great contribution, and I can completely make up for the previous mistake of not being effective in suppressing the bandits.

wrong!He just remembered that if he dug out the spies, he would have made two great contributions!If he manages any of these two things, he will be cleared of his charges and continue to be proud of the capital!
Thinking about it, he became more and more excited.Quickly and quietly clenched his fists, he looked at the person below with a gentler look in his eyes: "Okay, the two news you said are indeed very useful to the government. Get up, what's your name? The specific details , you should talk to the officer carefully."

"Thank you, my lord. The younger one's surname is Su, and his name is Su Gui!" The man knew that his words had knocked on the heart of Shuntian Fu Yin, and he was immediately overwhelmed with excitement, and quickly stood up.

It was only then that Shuntian Fu Yin realized that he had difficulty moving in one leg, and he was limping when he walked. He was obviously a lame man.

With Su Gui's help to provide information, Yin of Shuntian Prefecture then called the head of the prison who is best at punishment and prison to interrogate the gangster who was in charge of contacting the spy, and he asked for two names.And when these two names were announced, a person immediately knelt down in the courtroom.

He pleaded guilty.

As for the other person...he is not from the Shuntian Mansion, but from the Ministry of Justice, which is several levels higher than the Shuntian Mansion!

When this person was also dug out, one can imagine how ugly the faces of the people in the Ministry of Punishment were.

As for the address of the treasure house, that won't be found anytime soon.But Shuntian Fu Yin was very happy to be able to dig out two secret works so quickly.He then found out that Su Gui was indeed a newcomer to this bandit den, and because his legs and feet were inconvenient, he did not go out with these people to rob houses, but stayed on the mountain to do some chores, and was often ridiculed and bullied by others. He is the least evil person among this group of people.

Coupled with the fact that he has provided two more useful pieces of news, then his little crime can be completely offset.

"However, the treasure house hasn't been found yet, so you can't leave yet. I will keep you in prison for a few days now, and you can leave after you find the treasure house." Yin Dangtang of Shuntian Prefecture said so up.

Su Gui kowtowed in joy. "The little one understands, thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"

Originally, they just planned to go through the motions in public and pass on the anger of the people to these gangsters.Who knows, he really got two big benefits this time!Shuntian Mansion Yin was overjoyed, and quickly sent a letter to the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment to ask him to help with a thorough investigation.

And because the matter was tried in public, the Shuntian Mansion and the Ministry of Criminal Justice each released a secret work of bandits, and this matter was already widely spread in the blink of an eye.When Yue Dunyi, the servant of the Criminal Ministry, heard the news, it had almost spread throughout the capital!

He hurried to the Ministry of Punishment, and saw the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment looking at him coldly.

"Yue Shilang, you're here just in time. I'm about to invite you over for questioning!" The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment said coldly.

Yue Shilang was startled, and quickly lowered his head: "I know my mistake, please punish me, Lord Shangshu!"

"Now, can you solve the problem by punishing you?" The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment snorted coldly, "Your subordinate unexpectedly found a person who was allied with bandits, and he quietly informed the government of all the movements these days. , which led to the repeated failure of the government to suppress the bandits. This time, the king of Zhenxi almost fell there! I just remembered now that your nephew seems to be at odds with the king of Zhenxi. You should push him so hard this time. It's not because..."

"My lord, I have been wronged!" Yue Shilang almost broke his heart when he heard it, he quickly knelt down and shouted, "The reason why the lower official recommended the king of Zhenxi is because he trusts in the talent of the king of Zhenxi. The sage has a saying, and the virtuous Not avoiding hatred, the lower official has absolutely no other meaning in recommending him this time! As for the appearance of an inner ghost in the Ministry of Punishment, this person has nothing to do with the lower official, and he is definitely not instigated by the lower official! It's because the officials didn't teach well, and the officials are willing to take this responsibility!"

The corner of the Ministry of Punishment Minister's mouth curled up. "Yue Shilang, you have to think about it. If this matter has nothing to do with you, don't take responsibility for it. Otherwise, if there are any rumors outside because of this matter, it has nothing to do with me."

"Don't worry, my lord, everything is voluntary by the subordinates, and has nothing to do with you!" Yue Shilang shouted immediately.

But he was sneering in his heart: Now everyone is pushing the wall down.King Zhenxi succeeded in suppressing the bandits and gained a great reputation. Of course, you are all busy to add to the icing on the cake.As a result, now that the secret work has happened again, the Ministry of Criminal Justice must dig out a person to take the blame.Now, the Ministry of Punishment no longer expects to take the credit for electing King Zhenxi, they just hope that it would be best to suppress the fine work as soon as possible.But now, Lord Shangshu clearly intends to push the boat along the way, embarrassing himself to please King Zhenxi, so what else can he say?It would be better to confess the crime honestly and avoid more torture.

I didn't expect it! I didn't expect it!
He yelled in his heart in grief and anger: This time, he has worked so hard to plan for so long, but in the end he didn't get any benefits, and instead he just took the blame for it, he is really going to die of anger!

However, after a few days, when he knew that Su Gui was actually an acquaintance of King Zhenxi, he was so angry that he vomited blood, and passed out stiffly.
