Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 740 Doubt
When Han Qu saw this, he was instantly annoyed.

"Are you planning to rebel? Hurry up and disperse! Master Li ordered the detainment of the infected people for your own good. Aren't you afraid that like the Nancheng massacre, when they go crazy, you will be killed one by one?" Bite to death? No one wants to see this kind of thing happen. To tell you the truth, the detainees are all people infected by the poisonous gu. Even if they are not burned to death, they will be executed. Master Li did this, It's all to protect your life! You don't know what is good or bad! Hurry up and disperse! Do you really want me to arrest you for the crime of rebellion?" Han Qu snapped.

Following Han Qu's yelling, all the yamen servants drew out their sabers one after another, and quickly surrounded the people who were kneeling on the ground and shouting loudly.

Seeing such a posture, how could those common people dare to speak?They all bowed their heads and sobbed.

Seeing this, Li Canghai frowned slightly, and said, "Lord Han, let the government servants retire, I have something to say to them."

Han Qu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "My lord, these people don't know what's good and evil, they offended you, and they should be handed over to the lower officials. Your lord has worked hard all night, so let's go home early to rest."

Li Canghai glanced at him, and said displeasedly: "Lord Han, as a parent official, doesn't regard himself as the parents of the people, so he can bully the people wantonly. Instead, he regards the people as their parents and is anxious about what the people can do." , Think what the people think. Only in this way can we live up to the grace of God and the people. It is understandable that their relatives will lose control of their emotions when their relatives are killed in the sea of ​​​​fire. Besides, they are right, dozens of lives, How can it be offset by a word of 'negligence'? This is a tragedy caused by the negligence of this official, and this official should bear it all."

Hearing this, Han Qu quickly knelt down, and said solemnly: "My lord, this matter is all my fault. It is my lack of thoughtfulness and negligence of precautions that made this difficult happen. I am ashamed of my teachings to my lord!"

Li Canghai sighed, and said: "My lord, please stand up. Now that this tragedy has happened, both you and I cannot escape the responsibility. Go and move out all the corpses, try to keep the corpses intact, and then go to the Daci'en Temple Invite several eminent monks to chant sutras for them."

Han Qu saluted Li Canghai deeply, and then got busy as Li Canghai said.

Li Canghai walked up to the woman before him, leaned over and helped her up, and said to everyone: "Fellow folks, I feel very sad when such a tragedy happened. However, I have a few questions I want to ask." Here you go."

"What else is there to ask? Your officials and officials protect each other, which caused our family to be destroyed. We must seek justice for this matter!" Among the crowd, someone shouted loudly.

As soon as this remark came out, it was as if another stone had been thrown into the calm lake, causing ripples in an instant.

The people who had calmed down before became angry again.

"Yes! We want justice! Even if we go to prison, we want justice!"

"Wuuuu... Husband, you died so badly! You left us orphans and widowed mothers, how will we survive in the future? Wuuuuu..."

……

Li Canghai frowned, and quickly looked from the people kneeling in front of him, trying to find out who spoke, but at this moment, the people were so angry that it was difficult for him to find out who spoke first.

"Everyone, please be quiet! I will give you justice! But you have to answer the questions I asked, and I will give you justice only after I understand everything, right?" Li Canghai said loudly.

"Why do we believe you? Oh, right! Just now Master Han said that the reason why he locked up my brother was according to your order! In this way, it is you who actually killed my brother? You return my brother?" Come on brother!" Among the crowd, the bearded man suddenly wailed and rushed towards Li Canghai.

Seeing this, Qianniuwei immediately stepped forward and pushed the man to the ground.

"How brave are the unreasonable people, how dare they attack the present crown prince Shaofu, Dali Siqing, and Jianguo Junhou? How many heads are there to chop off?" Lu Ji said a series of official names in one breath, and sternly shouted.

The man was stunned on the spot, he was just a commoner who could not read a single word, and the biggest official he had ever met was probably Sima and others from Chang'an Mansion, not even the governor.

Now, hearing Lu Jitong say such a long list of official names, he was a little at a loss.

Although he is a rough man, he doesn't know the official rank of Prince Shaofu, nor the identity of the founding county marquis, but he knows the word 'Dali Temple Minister'.

Recently, no one in Chang'an City knows that Li Canghai, the Minister of Dali Temple, is like a god in adjudicating cases and upholding justice for the people. He is known as "Living Di Gong" among the people?

It's just that he never expected that the rumored Minister of Dali Temple was standing in front of him at this moment.

Not only him, but other common people were also stunned.

"You...you are Lord 'Shenduan' Li?" the man asked in a little astonishment.

Li Canghai asked Qian Niuwei to let him go, nodded and said, "If it's true, my official is Li Canghai."

The man looked at Li Canghai, and suddenly burst into tears with grief and indignation.

Li Canghai frowned slightly, and said puzzledly, "Why are you crying?"

The man wailed for a while, wiped his tears, and said bitterly: "It is rumored that Mr. Li loves the people like a son, and he is a first-class official who avenges justice for the people! But now it seems that he is just a hypocritical murderer! "

When Lu Jitong heard this, he frowned suddenly, and shouted, "Presumptuous! How dare you slander Your Excellency?"

The man seemed to be desperate, he gritted his teeth and said: "Since I have done it, I am afraid that people will not succeed? If he hadn't ordered my brother to be locked up, how could my brother be burned to death? If he is not the murderer, who is the murderer?"

"Presumptuous! My lord just caught the rebels, and before I had time to rest, I came here to visit the situation. When the fire broke out, my lord even went into battle to put out the fire, and I was almost trapped in the sea of ​​fire several times! And you said that my lord was the murderer who killed them How unreasonable is that really!" Lu Jitong said angrily.

He has always respected Li Canghai, and he has great admiration for Li Canghai as a person, so how can he tolerate others to frame Li Canghai as a murderer?
Li Canghai waved his hand, stopped the somewhat angry Lu Jitong, stared at the man, then saluted him with fists, and said calmly: "Thanks to the wrong love from all the elders, Li Canghai is extremely ashamed. You are right, although they It wasn't me who killed him, but he died because of my decision, and it would not be unfair to say that I was the murderer. But as Mr. Han said before, this officer has no choice but to do so."
