carved heart

Chapter 87
Ah Yin sternly said: "That day when our Qinghui Building opened, there were a lot of guests. If there is really a problem with food, how can only County Lord Yueming get sick?"

The provocative tone made Second Brother Su frown, and said with a sneer, "I'm going to ask you this, you know it well. You had a feud with my sister a month ago, how do you know if you hurt my sister on purpose?"

Ah Yin also sneered when he heard this.

"Dare to ask Su Erlang, if it were you, would you be so stupid that you smashed your own signboard on the opening day of your own tea shop?"

The second brother Su usually has a quick temper, and when he hears the word "stupid", the hair in his pores will stand on end!In his life, he hates others to say that he is stupid. The five brothers of the Su family are mediocre, which has always been a problem in his heart. Whenever he mentions it, he always has a gloomy face.Now a girl who only runs a tea shop dares to say that, Brother Su rolled up his sleeves angrily, and said, "What do you mean?"

The fourth brother Su, who had been silent all this time, said: "It is precisely because you have no fear, that you dared to harm my sister on that day because no one else would guess."

Ah Yin looked at Ma Lan.

Ma Lan has two big heads on one head. To be honest, his place is an official office for affairs, not a market place for quarrels.He never imagined that one day he would be able to hear arguing in this solemn place.

Moreover, General Su is behind one side, and the backing of the other side is not small.

Ma Lan winked at Liu Xin.

Liu Xin had no choice but to bite the bullet and shout: "This is Xijing Zhaoyin Mansion, why are you making noise? Be quiet!"

At this moment, Ah Yin cupped his hands to Ma Lan and said, "Your Excellency, do you pay attention to evidence? Several gentlemen of the Su family said that I poisoned the Lord of Yueming County. Where is the evidence? If there is no evidence, my lord, this is considered slander, right? "

Ma Lan looked at the brothers of the Su family.

Brother Su and the others didn't expect the matter to develop to this point. They thought it was Yin's step, and everyone would be happy if she stepped on it to apologize to her sister and make amends. Back off.

At this moment, Second Brother Su saw a faintly invisible smugness on the corners of Ah Yin's lips.

The second brother Su slammed the ground, and a burst of anger burst out of his heart, and he rushed straight to the sky.

He said: "Master Ma, according to our Daxing law, the county head who poisoned the Tian family's canon should be sent to prison and await punishment. The Yin family had a feud with the county head, and she had a motive, and the incident happened in her Qinghui Tower, so she couldn't escape. Suspect. Before the evidence is found, how should I deal with the Yin family?"

This kid hit the ball on his head!This asshole personal grievance is also arguing with him!But he can only accept it!What else can he do if he moves out of Daxing law?He looked at Yin's, hoping in his heart that this eloquent girl would say something to defend himself.

Unexpectedly, this girl's head was so stubborn that she said carelessly: "The clean is cleared, and the daughters of the people will be punished by the adults!"

Ma Lan's head sucked water, and it was heavy and heavy. After a while, he said, "Come here, bring Yin Shi in!"

The third brother Su looked at Yin's back and suddenly felt a little pity.After all, he is a commoner who doesn't know the truth inside, how can Yongping's prison be treated so well?Stretch out a stick and stir it, and even your fingers are black when you pull it out.If they greeted each other, it would be inevitable for Yin Shi to be tortured.But it's okay if you can't be tortured, this can see who the Yin family is relying on.

As for the evidence, this time we must insist that Qinghuilou was responsible for the death, and if there is no evidence, we have to show it.

The brothers returned home quickly, intending to discuss it with their sister.

The news that the owner of Qinghuilou was imprisoned quickly spread in Yongping, like a thunderbolt that exploded in the nuclear sculpture circle, so that even Jin Sheng heard about it.

He sat on the ground drinking wine, and said with his lips: "This girl has so many ideas in her head, she doesn't know what she wants to do." He raised his neck and took a sip of the wine, his brows tightened, and he took a few sips, and said: "Sure enough, it's still Jiujiang. The wine tastes good, these are vulgar wines!"

After speaking, Jin Sheng sighed, called the manager, and said, "Go to Xijing Zhaoyin to say hello."

The manager was stunned for a moment, and asked: "My lord wants to take care of Yin's affairs?"

Jin Sheng said: "Birds die for food, and I am crazy for wine. The little girl has Jiujiang wine in her hand, so she just lends a helping hand."

When the manager heard the words, he smiled helplessly and took the order to leave.

Jin Sheng looked at the two Baiyue nuclear carvings on the stage and suddenly smiled.

"I want to see what kind of disturbance you, a little girl, want to create in Yongping."

Shen Changtang's hands stopped, and the tea overflowed.

In a panic, the little boy quickly took a soft towel, squeezed out ice water, and applied it to Shen Changtang's scalded area.Shen Changtang didn't take it seriously, he waved his hand to let the boy back down.He asked, "Did she report to the police?"

Yan Shen nodded and said: "Returning to Master Hou, Miss Yin is now in prison. I wanted someone to say hello, but I found that Mr. Jin was a step ahead."

Shen Changtang had already learned from Fan Haohe that Ah Yin would not let him intervene, but he never expected that she would get himself involved in a blink of an eye.Prison is not a good place, for a while, Shen Changtang couldn't figure out what Ah Yin really wanted to do.

Yan Shen was full of worries, and asked, "Master Hou, what should we do? Do we really not need to intervene?"

Shen Changtang said: "She said she didn't need it, so she didn't need it, and she was upset if she interfered."

Hearing the words deeply, I became even more worried.

Their Lord Hou is now more and more obedient to Miss Yin. Ever since he met Miss Yin, his Lord Hou has changed more and more every day. A few years ago, it was impossible for him to believe that his Lord Hou would be where he is today.

It's really throwing a bone and can shake its tail several times.

When Miss Yin comes, she can keep her mouth in her mouth.

It's a sin, a sin, to compare his Lord Hou to a dog.

Yan Shen quickly regained his senses, straightened his back, and asked, "What else can Master Hou order?" If not, he went out to face the wall and thought about it.Shen Changtang said: "Has Yan Mo come back?"

Yan Shen said: "If you go back to Lord Hou, Yan Mo is still in Suizhou."

Shen Changtang pondered slightly, and said: "Send someone to tell Yan Mo, and carefully protect that person. If you are unfortunately found, you don't have to deal with him. We will discuss it when you come back. Remember not to reveal your whereabouts."

"Yes."

The person Shen Changtang was talking about was the false Duke Yuan. He knew that Emperor Yongsheng had sent someone to look for him, but he hadn't found him yet, so he could delay time and let him find out more clues.

After the Su brothers returned, Ma Lan would naturally not sit still.Ma Lan, who has been Xijing Zhaoyin for so many years, knows the character and ability of the Su brothers.Sometimes I often sighed for General Su, why did I give birth to six troublemakers?

Now it's still on his head, if this matter is not handled well, if he is given a memorial by some covetous imperial censor, he will lose his promotion.

If it were ordinary people, Ma Lan wouldn't have such a headache. Most of them bowed their heads when they got into trouble with the powerful, and there were also those who were arrogant. He would deal with them, helping if he could, and following the rules if he couldn't help, like those of the Su family who caused trouble Well, Ma Lan usually asks people to tip off General Su to put pressure on their elders.

It's like the last time the matter with the county lord Yueming, wasn't it settled silently?

At the end of the day, Ma Lan sent someone back to the house to explain to the wives that he had a lot of business, and then he was going to find General Su.

Unexpectedly, before stepping out of the official office, Liu Xin chased after him and whispered something in Ma Lan's ear.

"Jin Sheng sent someone here?"

Liu Xin said, "Yes, I just said hello."

Ma Lan didn't expect Jin Sheng to show up for such a small matter, and he took back the steps he took.With Jin Sheng supporting Yin's back, it might not be easy to settle this matter peacefully.As Xijing Zhaoyin, what he fears the most is that the two parties will rely on each other, and things will be difficult.

Liu Xin said at this time: "I greeted the people in the prison, and I served them with delicious food and drink."

Ma Lan nodded slightly.

Liu Xin said again: "My lord, there is a way for the lower officials. The cause of this matter lies in Yueming County Lord, let Yin family apologize to Yueming County Lord for humiliating, and let Yueming County Lord clarify and return Qinghuilou's innocence. Yueming County General Su will take the lead on Ming County Lord's side, and we will take the lead on Yin's side. Both of them take a step back, and the weather is calm."

Ma Lan said: "It's good for both of them to take a step back, but this matter is not so easy to solve. Liu Xin, you have just been in office for a few months, and the official road of Yongping is tortuous and not so easy."

Liu Xin frowned, and said: "The lower officials are stupid, listen carefully."

Ma Lan smiled, and said: "What are you doing, don't lose your value today, stay here. Some things in Yongping seem to be the size of a thread, and it is often such a small thing that can be overturned with a slight tug. A big ship."

Liu Xin made a bow and said, "Thank you for your enlightenment, my lord."

Ma Lan didn't plan to go to General Su at this time, but when Jin Sheng sent someone over, the matter obviously changed, and he had to deal with it carelessly.After thinking about it, Ma Lansi decided to try the Yin family first.Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the cell, he saw her leaning against the wall with a peaceful expression.

...and fell asleep.

Ma Lan saw such a big-hearted person for the first time, ordered someone to wake up Yin, and was about to test it out, but unexpectedly she said directly: "My lord, this matter is only a personal grievance between the daughter of the people and the Lord of Yueming County. "

Ma Lan was slightly startled, and couldn't help but look at Ah Yin again.

She looked at him with a smile.

Ma Lan suddenly raised his eyebrows and left the prison directly.Liu Xin followed Ma Lan, and asked puzzledly: "Didn't your lord want to ask something?" Ma Lan said in a deep voice, "This girl has a lot of tricks, and I can't get her words out. Liu Xin, she is in prison. The older girl doesn't have the slightest bit of fear or nervousness. Either she has a well-thought-out plan or there is a support behind you and me that even the Lord Yueming County can't move. Now we don't have to deal with it, let's see how she fights with the Lord Yueming County. As long as If we don't involve our Xijing Zhaoyin Mansion, we will stand still and act according to the rules and regulations."

Liu Xin wrote down one by one.

Ma Lan had an uneasy sleep in the official office, but when he got up the next day, he heard a bad news.The attendant who notified was flustered and stuttered, but finally Liu Xin who rushed over hurriedly spoke clearly.

"My lord, there is a crowd of people kneeling outside, and there are dozens of feet of blood books spread on the ground. They call them petitions! May Lord Yueming County let go of their master Yin! Give Qinghuilou their innocence !"

The three characters of the petition were like a big stone weighing heavily on Ma Lan's heart, and his footsteps were unsteady. Fortunately, he supported the wooden frame to avoid the pain of his buttocks falling to the ground.Before the death of the late emperor, there was a gentleman in Yongping called Wei Lao, who was good at riding and shooting, was good at giving, and taught many good students.However, in his sixtieth year, Mr. Wei offended the emperor's favorite concubine. Needless to say, there were twists and turns during the period. When Mr. Wei was sent to the morning gate, the students he had taught and the families he had given to all signed petitions. Book.At that time, there was a sensation, a hundred feet of blood letters, and petitions from all peoples.

In the end, Concubine Chong entered the cold palace, and the Minister of Criminal Affairs who was in charge of the case of Wei Lao was deposed, and Wei Lao was released without charge.

Now petition the blood book to reappear!
The spearhead is directed at the Lord Yueming County!

As Xijing Zhaoyin, if something happened to him, not to mention relegation, he might not be able to keep his head on his neck.

Ma Lan strode out.

Liu Xin followed step by step, and knew the seriousness of the matter at this moment.

I saw Ma Lan walking out of the back door, going around to a deserted place, looking solemnly at the people kneeling outside the government office.Liu Xin said in a low voice, "I knelt here before dawn this morning."

"What are they kneeling here for?"

"Does the owner of Qinghui Building know?"

"I know, the Yin family from Suizhou, who doesn't know, I went there on the opening day, but it was very lively, and invited a lot of big people, such as the Duke of the State, the Censor, and even Mu Yanghou!"

"Their owner has offended the Lord of Yueming County. Now most of the nuclear carving technicians in Xixuan Street have come. You said that the owner of Qinghui Building is also very powerful. It has only been in Yongping for a long time. It is so popular. Change it to other tea Si Dong’s family, if they are imprisoned, most of them want to protect themselves or find another way out, right?”

"It's really amazing!"

As Ma Lan heard it, the veins on his forehead twitched.But at this time, Ma Lan saw a familiar figure, even though he only stayed on the street for a moment, he still recognized who it was at a glance.

It is the person next to Mu Yanghou.

He immediately turned around and hurried back to the official office.

Ma Lan did two things.

One is to change into court clothes, go out to explain the reason to the people kneeling on the ground, and promise everyone that the Su family does not present strong evidence within three days, and the Yin family will be released.

The second is that he quietly sent someone to ask Mu Yanghou for instructions.

Shen Changtang was stunned for the first time.

After a long while, he gradually came back to his senses, and his expression couldn't help adding a bit of solemnity.He immediately ordered a few words to the visitor, who answered in a low voice, and then left quietly.Yan Shen said: "Master Hou, Ma Lan should have noticed something."

Shen Changtang said: "Ma Lan is a person who knows how to judge the situation."

Yan said with deep emotion: "Miss Yin is so courageous that she came up with such a way to force Yueming County Lord. Due to public opinion, the Su family may not be able to settle this matter hastily. After this incident, about No one in Yongping knows Miss Yin and Qinghuilou."

Miss Yin's method is really powerful.

At the beginning in Suizhou, Lord Hou sent Sun Jiaming to train her secretly, and now it seems that the results are very good, and it is worthy of Master Hou's painstaking efforts.Thinking about it, Miss Yin still doesn't know why there are so many strange things in Suizhou for no reason.

"... Lord Hou? Where is Lord Hou going?"

As soon as Yan Shen didn't pay attention, Shen Changtang's people got up and walked outside.Shen Changtang said without turning his head: "Solve the trouble."

The Su family brothers got together and thought of all kinds of tricks.Third brother Su originally wanted to pity her, but when he saw his sister's pale face on the sick bed, he became cruel again and said: "This girl is arrogant and domineering, we have to punish her."

Second Brother Su said: "Let's settle the matter quickly before the incident becomes serious."

Fourth Brother Su said: "But where can we find the evidence? Just a few people, not as many as hers."

County Lord Yueming on the sickbed gritted her teeth and said, "Without evidence, she bribed the people in Qinghui Building to call white into black! Don't embarrass her, I can't swallow this breath. Brother!" She said coquettishly: "My head hurts, my eyes hurt, my nose hurts, and my mouth hurts because of the surname Yin. Now I feel uncomfortable all over. If it goes on for a long time, the brothers will wait for my sister to visit the grave in Qingming next year!"

"Sister, what are you talking about? Bah, you dare to say such an unlucky thing!"

"Don't worry, sister, I will never let you suffer any grievances."

"According to what you said, we will preemptively strike. We will settle the matter while father is busy with official duties. We will plead guilty to father at that time."

The three brothers comforted the county master Yueming one after another.

The head of Yueming County said: "My brothers are not afraid. If my father blames me, I will go to rescue the soldiers. My aunt is here. At worst, I will face the wall and think about my mistakes again. We brothers and sisters face the wall and think about our mistakes together, and we can also play horse hanging. .”

Suddenly, there was a loud noise, the door of the wing room was kicked open, the window paper swayed pitifully in mid-air, and sawdust scattered all over the floor.In the backlight, I saw a tall and mighty figure standing like a bear standing at the door.

A loud drink.

"Bastard!"

The window paper was ruthlessly thrown off, and a piece of wood that fell off from the wooden door was tightly copied in General Su's palm.Crackling, crackling, the three brothers of the Su family were severely beaten, their high-quality clothes were ripped apart, red marks and blood were drawn out from their arms, shoulders, stomachs and backs.

Several people ran around with their heads in their hands, begging for mercy again and again.

The stick broke in half and fell.

The elder brother Su who heard the noise outside came in a hurry, quickly hid the wooden sticks on the ground, and said in a warm voice: "Father calm down, my sister is still recovering from illness." General Su immediately looked at Yueming who was curled up in the corner of the bed. Shaking, I couldn't say a word for a while.

General Su got even more angry, and said angrily: "One, two, three are all bastards! Do you know how many people are waiting to catch our family now? You are good, I am trembling in the sky, and you set fire behind my back Amazing, my sister is young and ignorant, you don’t teach her, don’t control her, and even pamper her! You are still confused together! Today, the people kneeling outside Zhaoyin’s mansion in Xijing, they are not kneeling on the ground, they are kneeling On the blood of our future!"

County Lord Yueming had never seen her father so furious, her eyes were flushed.

"Why are you crying? You have to pay for the whole family before you give up, right?"

County Lord Yueming said aggrievedly: "Ms. Yin is just a nuclear carver, she is not even a nuclear carver."
