"nothing?"

Facing the eyes of the fourth prince, Yu Zhengming subconsciously shook his head in denial.

"The lower official may have misunderstood Miss Cheng. I was worried that Miss Cheng would blame the lower official, so I first apologized to Miss Cheng."

Saying that, in front of the fourth prince, Yu Zhengming bowed deeply, "Please calm down, Miss."

This bow made Li Mian and Cheng Yuguan couldn't help but sneer in their hearts.

No matter what happened, Yu Zhengming is the lord of the county, and he bowed to apologize, and said that he was afraid that Cheng Yuguan would be angry, implying that what Cheng Yuguan would say in a while would be to vent his anger. Can't count.

Even if Cheng Yuguan pointed out Yu Zhengming's mistakes, he could still apologize in this way.

This is the legendary nonsense.

Lower your posture first, so that no matter what the other party says, you will feel domineering.

Going one step further, if the person in charge in front of him was not Li Mian, Cheng Yuguan would have difficulty arguing with Yu Zhengming's hypocritical attitude, and no matter what he said, he would be misunderstood by others.

In such a situation, ordinary people might be affected and deceived, but Cheng Yuguan is an orphan girl who has tasted so much about human affairs since she was a child, so as soon as Yu Zhengming's words came out, Cheng Yuguan understood Yu Zhixian's intentions.

There is also Li Mian, he has been aloof since he was a child, and he has seen all kinds of gestures made by the people below in order to please him.I was used to seeing people's hearts in the harem since I was a child, and Li Mian could easily see through Yu Zhengming's scheming.

The most embarrassing time for a person is when the scheming is nakedly seen through.

Cheng Yuguan and Li Mian's sneers made Yu Zhengming feel guilty, and then turned into anger from embarrassment.

He lowered his head in embarrassment at the sneer, his face became more and more embarrassing, and finally became cold and severe, as if he had made some kind of determination.

The interaction between people is sometimes so subtle.

Pushed awake by the county magistrate, the female prison guard on duty came out of the room rubbing her eyes. Her naked eyes were sleepy, but she was sensitive to the bad breath, she covered her mouth and shrank back into the room.

It's a pity that it was a step too late, the female prisoner was seen by Li Mian, and signaled to the soldiers below, together with everyone present, to take them to the lobby.

The sun was hanging high at this moment, which was the busiest time of the day.

At the gate of the yamen outside the lobby, many people gathered to watch the excitement.

Tongcheng is not like the capital city. There are endless specialties and unique songs to listen to. The common people don't have any entertainment activities in their daily life, and they are very boring.

Therefore, every time the government opens the Yamen to hear a case, there will always be a large number of people onlookers three floors outside.

In the past few days, Cheng Yuguan entered the yamen three times, all in the middle of the night, and this was the first time he went to the trial hall in full view.

"Your Highness, Inspector Zhao has brought it."

The instigator of the lawsuit against Cheng Yuguan is naturally indispensable.

When Zhao Xunjian was brought by Li Mian's soldiers, he couldn't stand anymore and collapsed on the lobby.

"Your Highness, it's all because of the lard of the lower officials. Then Cao Shiyou and Liu Zeming made a promise to help the lower officials get promoted, and I was obsessed with ghosts. According to their wishes, Miss Cheng was summoned and taken into custody."

People like Zhao Yi have no opinions and no backbone, but they are just as good, that is, they know the current affairs.

Ever since he heard the yamen servant say that the fourth prince is Cheng Yuguan's "fourth brother", he felt only fear, so he went to the lobby, and before Li Mian interrogated him, Zhao Yi confessed everything.

"On that one occasion, it was summoned by the lower official. Later, it was the magistrate of Yu County. He wanted to be promoted, and Liu Zeming allowed him to be promoted. He took advantage of the lower official again and asked the lower official to get Miss Cheng. Your Highness, your lower official. It was forced, you must be aware of the details!"

It is Zhao Yi's weak instinct to throw the pot away.

After hearing Zhao Yi's words, the Tongcheng people outside the lobby were filled with righteous indignation.

"It's shameless. It's not easy for Miss Cheng to run a shop as a woman. What's more, she has built bridges and paved roads in the past two years. She pities the poor and the weak. As parents and officials in Tongcheng, how can you do this?"

"That's right, I know Miss Cheng, she is very kind. When I was repairing the garden, Miss Cheng not only wiped the zeros for me, but also delivered the goods to my door. She is a good person."

"Yeah, yeah, although I didn't buy anything that was recorded in the process, every time I went in for a stroll, I was served with tea and snacks. I occasionally ran into Miss Cheng, and she was smiling every time, and she was very kind."

"What are you going to do if you don't buy it? Eat some snacks?"

"Where is it? I am preparing for the garden in the future, can't I take a look first?"

...

Public opinion is easy to be guided, outsiders are talking about it lively, but the interrogation in the hall is still going on step by step.

"Yuzhi County, what do you have to refute Zhao Xunjian's remarks?"

Li Mian turned to look at Yu Zhengming, and asked lightly.

But Yu Zhengming straightened his back and bowed his hands, "Zhao Yi's words are all slander. What Cao Shiyou, Liu Zeming, I don't know what Zhao Xunjian said. The lower official was just deceived by Zhao Xunjian and believed his one-sided words, so Cheng Yuguan was summoned. As for other things, the official did not do anything, and he didn’t know anything. If you don’t believe me, you can interrogate at will, or ask Miss Cheng. Miss Cheng has been summoned several times, but has she ever met the official? ? Every time, isn't it Zhao Xunjian who comes forward? As for what Zhao Xunjian said to Miss Cheng, the lower officials don't know."

Yu Zhengming pushed two six five.

Zhao Yi was dumbfounded.

From the beginning to the end, Yu Zhengming never showed up, and it was Zhao Xunjian who jumped up and down.

While not innocent, he still felt teased.

Zhao Yi stood up angrily, "Don't you think you can get out of your body? Your Highness!"

Zhao Yi cupped his hands and bowed to Li Mian, "I saw with my own eyes that Liu Zeming appeared in the women's cell and wanted to do something wrong with Miss Cheng. If Miss Cheng wasn't astute, I'm afraid he would have succeeded. You must not let it go." he!"

"Empty mouth and white teeth, how could Liu Zeming enter the government office? You are just trying to excuse yourself, and you drag people into the water at will. You said that Mr. Liu came to the prison, well, who else is old except you? There is no witness or material evidence. What is it if it is not slander? Your Highness, this inspector Zhao knows that his crime is unforgivable, so he bites people at will. Please enforce the law impartially and return the official to a good reputation. Otherwise, even if the official is imprisoned, he will have to go to the court. Avenge yourself!"

Yu Zhengming's tone was turbulent, and his words were righteous. Zhao Yi was stunned. Outside the door, the people who joined in the fun were also infected by Yu Zhengming's words, and they spoke out in support.

"That's right, this inspector Zhao is rambunctious and biting. Mr. Cao looks kind and kind on weekdays, but he is not a criminal. There is also the county magistrate, who is very dignified and lives a simple life on weekdays. He did something for us in Tongcheng." There are many good things. Every year, merchants are summoned to pay for the porridge shed and the stone bridge. The magistrate feels wronged, and the people of Tongcheng can't agree!"

In the eyes of Tongcheng people, Yu Zhengming has a good image. Although he used the money from merchants to do things, and the Cheng family contributed a lot, the reputation of Yuzhi County can be regarded as established in Tongcheng.

No evidence, no one is convinced.

Li Mian glanced at the righteous Yu Zhengming, and then looked at Zhao Yi, "So, inspector Zhao, you must have evidence, otherwise you will falsely accuse the superior, and the crime will be aggravated."

Cheng Yuguan stood aside, as if he had been completely ignored.Li Mian only asked Zhao Xunjian and Yu Zhixian, and asked them to say that at this time, Cheng Yuguan just watched the show with his arms folded.

At this time, Cheng Yuguan looked at Zhao Xunjian, expecting him to produce evidence.

Inspector Zhao's eyes widened, and he looked at Yu Zhengming, "Don't be too happy, the female supervisor and a group of yamen servants can all testify! And you found out that Miss Cheng might escape from prison early this morning, you are more nervous than me Too many. If it wasn't your mastermind, why are you nervous?"

When Cheng Yuguan heard the words, he sighed silently, his words were pale, not to mention that Zhao Xunjian could not be compared with Yu Zhengming.

Sure enough, Yu Zhengming became more and more relaxed as he spoke, and at this moment there was even a calm smile on his face, "You are the inspector of this county, and the yamen servant and the female supervisor are all under your command. Collusion cannot be used as evidence."

"you!"

Zhao Xunjian's eyes were red, and he stared at Yu Zhengming, as if he wanted to eat him, but he couldn't refute Yu Zhengming's words.

"Your Highness, the lower officials are lax in discipline, causing Zhao Xunjian to abuse his power and embarrass the Cheng family. The lower officials, as parents and officials of a county, did not realize it in time, causing the people under their rule to suffer innocent disasters. This is the lower official's negligence. The lower official will surely We will conduct a deep review and there will never be a next time!"

Yu Zhengming clasped his hands, self-criticized loudly, and then looked at Cheng Yuguan again, "Miss Cheng, this lower official is negligent, here, I will make amends for you."

Repeated tricks.

Sure enough, everyone in the hall had different expressions, and the people outside the yamen were already applauding for the magistrate's "openness" and "candor".

"Master Yu, open up!"

"Ms. Cheng is very generous, please forgive the county magistrate, it is a beautiful thing for you to shake hands and make peace!"

...

The endless applause from outside the government office made the onlookers even more crowded, trying to occupy a good position and witness a good show of "government and the people win each other".

But outside the crowd, Wang Qin remained as still as a mountain. He didn't squeeze in or leave. He just stood outside the office, listening to the voices from inside and outside.

"Master, Mr. Liu and Mr. Cao are all gathered in Dongjiazhuang outside the city at the moment. Let's go too. If there is an emergency, we can have a buffer."

Wang Qin's little bookboy, Xiyan looked uneasy, and said in the son's ear.

Although he didn't know the specific plan, he knew that his young master had participated in what happened to Miss Cheng these days.At this moment when the matter is approaching, the book boy only feels that the catastrophe is coming, and at this moment, he is by the young master's side, but he can't help but fight between the two.

"What are you panicking about?"

Wang Qin looked indifferent.

"Didn't you hear? Inspector Zhao said that Liu Zeming and Cao Shiyou bribed him. What does it have to do with me? Listen carefully, this trial of the county magistrate is not common, let's learn from it."

Wang Qin's voice was calm as usual, but it made Xi Yan feel cold.

He couldn't help but glanced up at the young master behind him, and then quickly moved away.

In the past, he could joke with the young master, but now, he dare not even look at the young master.

My son has been known as a child prodigy since he was a child, and has always been kind and cheerful in his dealings.

I don't know when, but in an instant, the young master seemed to be a different person.

Not only did he become drinking buddies with a few young masters who didn't have much contact with him before, he even gave advice to people he didn't like before, and became a famous person in Tongcheng County.

Thinking of the young master, Dong Wenping, and Cao Shiyou, who are familiar with each other recently, Xi Yan didn't know for a while, is it because his young master has grown up and sensible?Or fallen?
Although the young master was bullied before, Xi Yan always felt that now that the young master blended into those people and no longer suffered bullying, it would be better than before.

But specifically why it is not good, Xiyan can't figure it out.

...

The classroom seemed to be at an impasse.

"That night I was summoned to a women's prison, and the female supervisor gave me tea with medicine. Since Zhao Xunjian and Yu Zhixian insisted on their own opinions, and Zhao Xunjian had no evidence, we might as well start with the drug. "

Cheng Yuguan made a sound and got to the point.

Since the witness testimony was overthrown by Yu Zhengming, then look for physical evidence.

Zhao Yi was reminded and jumped up, "Yes, I didn't buy that medicine. Check the medicine!"

Li Mian was still waiting for Zhao Xunjian and Yu Zhengming to bite the dog, but when Cheng Yuguan talked about medicine, Li Mian became serious.

"Okay, the little Tongcheng has a lot of tricks, not only arresting civilians at will, but also using drugs and other low-handed methods."

When Li Mian went to the yamen and saw the footprints on the wall, he knew that Cheng Yuguan did it on purpose.

With the strength and frequency of Cheng Yuguan's fists and kicks every day, she climbed over the wall and used a water tank?

Unexpectedly, it turned out that Cheng Yuguan was not playing Tongcheng County, but she was forced to help.

Unexpectedly, she was not only detained, but also drugged, and Li Mian's expression became more severe.

Seeing that the imperial envoy's face became more and more ugly, and the atmosphere became more solemn, Zhao Yi shrank his head and didn't dare to say anything more.

"Come on!"

"promise!"

Li Mian gave an order, and the soldiers who were still in the dark suddenly agreed, the aura made Zhao Yi tremble, and Yu Zhengming no longer insisted on righteousness like that, with an upright and unyielding face.

"Bring Cao Shiyou and Liu Zeming mentioned by Zhao Xunjian, as well as the medicine, and go to the pharmacy with the female supervisor to check, and the person who sells the medicine must be arrested in the lobby. The prescription is originally For the benefit of the common people, the place where thousands of families live in Buddha, this black-hearted pharmacy can no longer be kept!"

"promise!"

The dark mass of personal soldiers flowed out of the lobby like molten iron, and the people gathered outside the door were photographed by their aura and unconsciously moved out of the way.

"Sure enough, it's an imperial envoy's personal soldier, with extraordinary momentum."

"That's right. They seem to be more than a little stronger than our garrison officers and soldiers. This is the legendary elite soldier and strong general."

...

When everyone was praising, Wang Qin frowned behind everyone.

"My son, what's the matter? Is there something wrong?"

Xi Yan cautiously asked his son.

Wang Qin shook his head solemnly, "It's a blessing or a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided. It's nothing, just keep reading."

Hearing his son's melancholy and distant voice, Xi Yan didn't know why, and started to jump up and down, always feeling that disaster was imminent.

The prince's personal guard handles affairs neatly and simply.

Soon, Cao Shiyou and other Tongcheng princes hiding outside the city were arrested and taken to court.
