Chapter 56 Dirty Water
Chapter 56 Dirty Water
On the way to reconciliation, someone has to give a push.
There are two majestic stone lions in front of the gate of the government office in the capital city. Xu Muzhou took a look at the stone lions and walked up the stone steps, thinking that his luck is really ups and downs.
In just over a year, he was called to court for the second time.The difference was that this time it was the court in the capital, and Shen Yi came with him.
Walking along the stone steps to the hall, Xu Muzhou saw that all the office servants in the hall had solemn faces, but the governor of Jingzhao Fu, who was above the official position, looked timid and cowering, and his eyes wandered to the side from time to time.
Looking next to him, sure enough, Lord Jin Yuxian and Jin Qiantui were sitting in the hearing seat.However, with his aura, it seemed that he was the one who made the decisions in Jingzhao Mansion.
"The Governor of Jingzhao summoned Mr. Xu Er to go to court for trial. Why is the regent also here? Is the prince so free?"
Jin Yuxian must have been annoyed by the incident in Pianzhou. When he saw Shen Yi, he opened his mouth to be provocative, and he even ignored his usual polite manners: "Losing money, I thought that the prince was always working hard on state affairs. Yesterday, I advised His Majesty to send less official duties to the Regent."
Jin Yuxian treats the young emperor as if he tied a marionette to his side. He naturally hopes that the young emperor can take power as soon as possible.
At that time, Shen Yi will no longer have to handle official business, and Jin Qiansui will also become the person behind the scenes who truly holds the power of Fengguo.
How could Shen Yi follow his wish.
However, Shen Yi knew that Jin Yuxian was deliberately provoking him at this moment, so he didn't fall for it. He just said: "The interrogation and settlement of cases in this important place in the capital are all under the jurisdiction of this king."
"Is there anything wrong with this king coming to the place under his jurisdiction?"
"It's you Jin Qiansui, even if the yamen court is going to try the case, it has nothing to do with you, the chief executive in charge of the imperial court's internal affairs."
"It's really a surprise to me that you appear here." Shen Yi has nothing to lose, even if he is provoked by the other side in the courtroom, he will return the color with a gun and a stick.
As for Jin Yuxian, he usually does not leave the palace, but the loss of soldiers and generals in Pianzhou City made him so angry that he had a heart attack. Shen Yi and Xu Muzhou must pay some price in order to temporarily relieve their hatred.
But Shen Yi, the evil star, can't move for the time being, Jin Yuxian can only pick up persimmons and pinch them softly.
The Wuji Villa was bombed into ruins, nearly a hundred people died, but Xu Muzhou was one of the few who survived, Jin Yuxian naturally would not miss this opportunity.
He reported to Jingzhao Fu Yin that Xu Muzhou conspired to ignite the gunpowder, and asked the Fu Yin to immediately send him to the court for a trial.How could the governor of Jingzhao dare to go against Jin Qiansui's intention, so he hurriedly sent someone to pass Xu Muzhou over.
Shen Yi really guessed.After the advice was given on the front foot, Jin Yuxian hurriedly put it into practice on the back foot.
Thinking of this, Xu Muzhou stood in the courtroom, not panicking at all, but had a calm smile on his face, and there was a bit of mockery in the smile.
As if laughing at Jin Yuxian: Shen Yi said you would bite me back, so you really bite me back, I have never seen such an obedient person.
Xu Muzhou's eyes made Jin Qiansui a little displeased, "Why, the Second Young Master Xu is dissatisfied with Jingzhao Fu Yin passing you to the hall?"
"No, Caomin is just a little curious." Xu Muzhou put on an honest and pitiful look, "Elder-in-law testified against me, but you already have evidence in your hand?"
"Of the people in the inner hall of the villa at that time, you were the only one who survived. Isn't that suspicious enough?" Jin Yuxian seemed to be playing a rascal.
On the other hand, the governor of Jingzhao, like a wooden stake, shivered, not daring to speak.Even after hearing Jin Qiantui's unreasonable nonsense.
Shen Yi took a step forward and stood side by side with Xu Muzhou, "What kind of evidence is this? If Jin Qiansui's so-called "exposing" is based on such nonsense, then the king will take him back. "
"This king will not allow unjust, false and wrong cases to occur in the capital for a day."
Shen Yi wanted to pull Xu Muzhou and turn around to leave. At this time, Jin Yuxian's voice came from behind: "The regent wants to take away the human traffickers at this time, isn't it suspected of covering up?"
"Or, this whole thing was ordered by the regent behind the scenes?"
It seems that Jin Qiansui is not only going to bite Xu Muzhou back.
The two of Xu and Shen stopped, and Xu Muzhou turned around, still calm and calm, "Caomin, can I ask your lord, how did you know that I was in the inner hall when the gunpowder exploded?"
Jin Yuxian calmed down: "Of course it's the confession of the rest of the survivors. They said that everyone was dismissed that day, and you were the only one left in the inner hall."
"Then the gunpowder was ignited, and everyone around the inner hall died, and only Second Young Master Xu survived. Isn't this doubtful? I'm afraid that if you tell it, people in the world will not believe it. .”
Jin Yuxian clearly knew that Xu Muzhou was rescued by Shi Daoqing, but now he doesn't mention it.
Xu Muzhou had no choice but to help him point out: "Elder-in-law's words don't make sense. The grassroots don't know martial arts. Even if they want to ignite gunpowder, they don't choose the moment when they are in the inner hall. Otherwise, wouldn't it be suicide?"
"It can be seen from this that I was lucky enough to survive. Isn't it just contradictory with what I was in the inner hall at that time?"
Jin Yuxian answered slowly: "Yes, if he hadn't colluded with the leader of the Shadow River League, how could Second Young Master Xu dare to take such a risk?"
Jin Qiantui was so angry that he wanted to directly involve the Yingjiang League.
As soon as the organization was formed, Shen Yi was the mastermind behind the scenes, Yingjiang League assisted from the side, and Xu Muzhou acted as the link connecting the two parties. The three colluded together to cause the tragedy of Wuji Villa.
This made the two people in the hall laugh, and said in their hearts that it was really embarrassing for Jin Qiantui to come up with such a blunt frame-up words.
But the old man's expression changed, he took out a notebook with unknown contents, and put it on the desk of Jingzhao Fu Yin, "Is the regent going to say that I have nothing to prove? Well, the evidence is here." it's here."
Jin Yuxian obviously also came prepared.
He knew that Shen Yi was investigating the source of gunpowder inside the Wuji Villa, and he also knew that if this went on, Shen Yi would soon trace the name of the Red Flower Society.
So Jin Yuxian resorted to tactics. Anyway, Xu Muzhou was the head of the No. 40 Eighth Hall, so he simply transferred the charge of "smuggling gunpowder" to him.
For Jin Chitose, it was too easy to forge a record book that could be faked.
This book records every gunpowder transaction in detail, as well as Xu Muzhou's own handwriting. The most frightening thing is that these gunpowder are not extraordinary products, but "arms" used by the court.
Arms smuggling, those who have never read the laws and regulations of Fengguo, know that it is a felony.
In this way, Jin Yuxian was equivalent to taking the initiative to uncover the fact that the Red Flower Club transported gunpowder, and because he encouraged Mu Zhou to go out to take the blame, he cleverly picked the Red Flower Club out again.
"Second Master Xu is good at doing business. Maybe there is some ulterior motive in buying and selling gunpowder with arms dealers? I can't guess this." Jin Yuxian said with a smile.
