The official system of the Xia Dynasty, the Supervision Yuan is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor, and it is above the three princes and six ministries, so Bai Zheng's announcement is tantamount to shining a beam of light in the dark gap of despair!
Long Xingtu didn't have to observe Zhou Jie and Yan Jing's reactions, and he knew a thing or two in his heart.She lifted her robe and knelt heavily, like a fish in her throat, "The lower officials are for the people of Dawn, thank Lord Bai for setting aside the chaos and purging the Qing Dynasty anyway!"
”"Lord Long's salute is heavy!"
Bai Zheng bent down, helped Long Xingtu to get up, and sighed with emotion, "It should be the responsibility of those who are officials, but it's a pity......
That's it, this official agreed to this matter when he was in Wuyang County, and now Chen Sheng and the tanuki have been brought to justice, you look for Wang Bing as soon as possible, as long as the human and physical evidence is conclusive, I believe the emperor will make a clear decision!
”Long Xingtu spat out a word from the depths of his throat, "Yes!"
”Seeing this, Li Yanzhou's expression relaxed a little, and he raised his voice: "Please ask the Supervision Yuan, the Household Department, the Dali Temple and the Criminal Department to open the box and inspect the gold!"
”The copper locks on the four chests were covered in thick cobwebs and dust.Long Xingtu confirmed to Chen Sheng according to the rules, "After you robbed the gold, did you ever open the lock to check it and use the gold for other purposes?"
”"Back to my lord, I have never opened the lock for inspection, nor have I used it for other purposes.""
Where's the key?"
Chen Sheng presented a bunch of keys, because they had been idle for many years, the brass surface of the keys was rusty, and after Yang Qin, the head of the household department, inspected it, he personally opened the lock in front of the highest officials in charge of the yamen.Four boxes of gold worth 40,000 taels, all of which were treasury official silver minted in the same batch, counted one by one, and after confirming that it was correct, Li Yanzhou asked the household department to seal the box on the spot, and asked Bai Zheng, Zhao Shilang and the household department Shangshu to sign and seal the relevant official documents.At this time, Li Xi came to ask for instructions, "Lord Li, can you return to the court now?"
”Li Yanzhou owed a debt and said politely: "Father-in-law Li has been waiting for a long time. ”After that, he ordered the Dali Temple to bring all the evidence of the murder back to the Dali Temple for archiving, and the four boxes of gold and the escort of the two criminals Chen Sheng and the raccoon cat were completed by the Criminal Department and the Imperial Forest Army.Of course, just in case, Li Yanzhou and Long Xingtu led the team, Prince Xian Zhou Su was in the center, and the Marquis of An Guo was behind.The crown prince Zhou Jie, Yan Jing and the hundred officials each rode in a car or on horseback, and lined up at the back of the escort procession.The winter night was cold and windy, and there was not half a star on the inky sky.Huangjue Temple, a thousand-year-old ancient temple, seems to be a static landscape painting rendered in thick ink, which seems to be more and more silent and solemn.The white lanterns hanging at the ends of the lintels also swayed more and more.When going down the mountain, the dragon star map looked back at the temple gate, and his heart was concerned.Behind every case, there is a test of human nature, desolation, compassion and fragmentation.From a spectator to a protagonist, in a story that seems to be a bystander, silently interprets his own tragedy, even if his heart is broken, he must make a gesture that he has nothing to do with it, so as to stand in the world and face the wind.Shi Feng rode his horse and sent the food box through the car door and presented it to Li Yanzhou.This is the Hou Mansion specially built for Li Yanzhou's royal carriage, he has been weak since he was a child, and he is afraid of cold in winter, so the carriage is hung with heavy impermeable curtains on the four walls, and the small couch is also covered with a warm fox fur blanket.Long Xingtu sat on the couch, half of his body leaning against the wall of the car, his eyes were dull, and his mind was in a trance.Li Yanzhou took out a plate of scallion pancakes and a bowl of porridge from the food box, "Hungry, right?"
Serve hot. ”The freshly boiled preserved egg porridge was still steaming, and it rushed into Long Xingtu's eyes, she turned her face away, and her voice was a little choked, "You eat, I'm not hungry." ”"Nonsense, you haven't eaten all day, how can you not be hungry?"
Li Yanzhou frowned, scooped a spoonful of porridge and sent it to Long Xingtu's mouth, and comforted him softly, "Be good, obedient." ”Long Xingtu paused, and only then did his lips open lightly."
That's what it sounds like."
Li Yanzhou was happy, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
