Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 482
Inside the Governor's Mansion, Pei Yunzhao's face was as deep as water, he was silent, and the atmosphere was sombre. The servants around him unconsciously lowered their movements and steps, and held their breath, not daring to make a sound.

Yang Changshi looked at his boss cautiously, thought for a while, and asked for instructions: "How about... the lower officials go out and deal with it, and let the Zhou family go back first?"

Pei Yunzhao's expression became more serious, noncommittal.Yang Changshi didn't dare to act rashly, and the situation outside was really a headache, so he couldn't help but said: "The Zhou family is a local rich family, if this matter is not handled properly, your official voice in the Ming Mansion...may be affected."

Pei Yunzhao, who had been silent all this time, snorted coldly, and said, "Because of the official voice, this residence will be blackmailed by the Zhou family?"

Yang Changshi didn't dare to speak anymore.

Pei Yunzhao said: "There is indeed something wrong with the facts of this case. Although the Zhou family's circumstances are justifiable, this case should not be judged quickly. This government enforces the law fairly and has a clear conscience."

Yang Changshi said: "There is no inside story in the case. The Ming government enforces the law impartially, so naturally it is not afraid of pressure from the Zhou family. However, the Zhou family does not know these inside stories. Go out and talk to them. After all, the Zhou family is a local rich family, and the new Da Zhongzheng is the old man of the Zhou family. It hinders the administration of the Ming government."

Pei Yunzhao was silent for a while before nodding his head.Yang Changshi immediately resigned and broke up with the Zhou family.

Outside the governor's mansion, Zhou Shiqilang's wife and young son were all dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, crying on their knees, the old father of the Zhou family, supported by servants, was also dressed in plain clothes, crying.Quite a few curious onlookers gathered outside the Governor's Mansion.

When Yang Changshi came out to look, his forehead couldn't help throbbing. He walked towards Master Zhou who was in the crowd. Master Zhou saluted Yang Changshi and said, "Caomin Zhou Shilian pays homage to Chang Shi."

Yang Changshi smiled wryly: "Master Wednesday is free of courtesy! Our Ming Mansion has been an official and a man for many years, don't you know? Why is this so?"

On Wednesday, the master cried: "Pei Mingfu is a man, and the grassroots naturally trust him. However, Mingfu is also a man with fierce gestures, and he will return to the capital in the future. My Seventeenth Lang can't die in vain. Please forgive me. Caomin I don't dare to have extravagant hopes, I only hope that the Ming government can judge the case impartially, and killing people pays for their lives, it is just and right, can the murderer still get past it?"

Yang Changshi said: "Mingfu will naturally enforce the law impartially, the third master can rest assured about this matter."

"Then why has it been delayed for so many days?"

Master Zhou asked.Yang Changshi hesitated for a while, and said: "Just because the facts of the case have not yet been clarified, there are still doubts, so the Ming government is still investigating."

When the master heard it on Wednesday, he stopped crying, and said: "Investigate? What are you still investigating? On the law, the three confirmed it. Could it be that the confessions of the three have not been recorded yet? But I heard Dalang say that the testimony of witnesses There are already more than three copies, why is the Ming government still continuing the case?"

Yang Changshi was dumbfounded, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

The old man on Wednesday snorted angrily, and said: "It really is a big murderous gesture! Forget it, forget it, the old man is just a white man, since the Ming government is afraid of the murderer's power and bullying my Zhou family is weak, I have to ask the old man to come out of the mountain !"

After finishing speaking, the master on Wednesday said: "Boys, go back and invite the old man!"

The members of the Zhou family left in a mighty manner.Yang Changshi frowned and wanted to stop him, but Master Zhou didn't give him a chance, and walked away in disregard of dissuasion.Yang Changshi rubbed his eyebrows and had no choice but to return to Pei Yunzhao.

"boom!"--

Pei Yunzhao's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he was furious: "What a Zhou family, are you trying to interfere in the judiciary and coerce the government to settle the case?"

"Mingfu..."

Yang Changshi has yet to persuade.Pei Yunzhao waved his hand and said, "Yuan De doesn't need to persuade you any more. Ever since the imperial court issued an edict to set up the Dazhongzheng, the old man of the Zhou family became the Dazhongzheng of Yuezhou. Da Zhongzheng, who has a name but no real power, the case is clear and clear, it's not that the government is favoritism, the government has a clear conscience, just come here, the government is still afraid of him!"

Seeing that Pei Yunzhao couldn't be persuaded, Yang Changshi had no choice but to keep silent.Coming out of the Governor's Mansion, after thinking about it, he called Sanming and asked him to go to Sishui Village.

-----------------

Sishui Village, Xue Lang's house, Xue Lang listened to Sanming's message, and asked suspiciously: "The old man of the Zhou family is Da Zhongzheng? Who is he from Zhou Shiqilang?"

Sanming replied: "Back to the son-in-law, the old man of the Zhou family is the old man of the Zhou family. The patriarch of the Zhou family is the old man's eldest son, and the ancestor of Zhou Shishilang is his brother. It is Yue who was granted by the imperial court in the first month of this year. State University Zhongzheng."

The imperial court issued an edict in the first lunar month, and set up a grand zhongzheng in the state capital to take charge of the situation, rank, and rent of people in the state.Because it is not a formal official position, there is no rank or salary, but they are all held by highly respected people from various states.

Xue Lang thought for a moment, and said: "Please tell Yang Changshi that I thank him for his kindness, and that I know about it!"

"Here."

"Changjian, see off the guest for me."

Changjian went to see off the guests, Xue Lang sat thinking——

Sanming sent the report in the name of Yang Changshi, did Pei Yunzhao know?Is this what Pei Yunzhao meant?However, regardless of whether it was Pei Yunzhao's intention or not, now that he knew, he couldn't stand by and watch.

After thinking about it, he called Tang Yaowu and explained the situation, Xue Lang said: "You bring enough people to help Governor Pei find him as soon as possible."

Tang Yaowu was a little hesitant: "But, Lord..."

Xue Lang said: "I'll just stay in Sishui Village and not go anywhere."

Tang Yaowu still disagreed: "No, the safety of the Lord is the most important thing."

In any case, Tang Yaowu disagreed. Xue Lang knew that he was doing it for his own benefit, so after thinking about it, he said, "Let's leave one person behind, and let the rest go out. Find all of them as soon as possible. Pei Yunzhao followed my advice. I shouldn't embarrass him either."

"Here!"

Liu Yaowu took the order and left.On that day, except for a guard named Jiang Shengjie, the rest, including Liu Yaowu, were all sent out by Xue Lang——

What Xue Lang wants to do is very simple, that is, to restore it on the spot. Of course, it is not so magical that even the overwritten and deliberately forgotten memories can be recalled in later TV series. What Xue Lang wants to do is just a simple logical reasoning.

According to everyone's confession, restore the scene to thoroughly find out how Zhou Shiqilang died and whether it was related to Sun Xiang, so as to prove Sun Xiang's innocence.

However, this is a new method. According to the regulations confirmed by the three of Tang Lv, the Zhou family is afraid that the Zhou family will be entangled in the confession. Therefore, in order to increase persuasion, Xue Lang advocated finding everyone.Now that the Zhou family is putting pressure on him, in order not to embarrass Pei Yunzhao too much, Xue Lang had no choice but to send more people.

However, if the Dazhong of the Zhou family were looking for Pei Yunzhao tomorrow, Xue Lang wouldn't mind stepping in to block him, even if he was said to use power to overwhelm others.If Sun Xiang really killed someone, Xue Lang wouldn't protect him, but if Sun Xiang didn't kill someone... he mustn't be tortured into a trick, otherwise, who would be loyal to him in his future works!
It's a big deal, don't be careless!
Xue Lang had some doubts in his heart. He couldn't fall asleep for a long time after falling asleep, and simply closed his eyes to rest his mind. He wasn't too worried about Sun Xiang's affairs. He still missed the princess more in his heart, and he didn't know if the princess was doing well in Chang'an City. Miss her!

Xue Lang sighed faintly in his heart, woke up for a while, just fell asleep in a daze, seemed to hear the sound of objects falling to the ground, listened carefully, but found nothing, thought he had heard wrong, turned over, suddenly Hearing the creaking of the wooden floor, but no footsteps, he opened his eyes and saw——

A dark figure stood beside the bed, holding a bright dagger in his hand, stabbing at him without hesitation!Xue Lang subconsciously shouted: "There are assassins!"
