Chapter 98: Imprisonment(1/2)
Yu Songbai, the censor who patrolled the city, was pulled out of bed.
Looking at his subordinates sleepily, he yawned and asked, "But where is the fire?"
"Sir, it's not a fire, it's an accident! A Shen woman killed someone in front of our Yamen!"
Yu Songbai yawned halfway, and his chin almost fell off his face and hit the ground.
"What is the origin of that woman?"
"No, I don't know! She said she wanted to report Hu Hui, who surrendered tonight. We pulled Hu Hui out and asked her to identify him, but she actually took out a knife from her sleeve and killed him!"
"Hu Hui?" Holding his pants in hand, Yu Songbai tilted his head and glanced at his subordinates, "Is he the nephew of the Hu family who lives in poverty?"
"It's him. This time he turned himself in and said he killed a prostitute."
A prostitute?
Yu Songbai didn't take it to heart.
After putting on his trousers and shoes, his subordinates had already held his official hat in their hands and put on their soap boots. Yu Songbai frowned slightly:
"The surname is Shen. When the two Shen brothers from the Shen residence in Zhengxifang got together for gambling, it was someone from the West Factory who personally took care of it. Do you still remember?"
"Subordinate, please remember."
"Ordinarily, they used Shen's house for gambling, so Shen's house should have been confiscated. As a result, there was another item in the document that was used to seize other people's property..."
Yu Songbai gathered his official robe and his mind was spinning rapidly.
For petty officials like them who are responsible for public security in Yanjing City, the most important thing is to sort out all the relevant relationships under their jurisdiction. They must not decide a case out of impulse and end up offending people who should not be offended.
The two Shen brothers have been implicated in the deputy commander of the Xicheng Military and Horse Department. It can be regarded as a major case under Yu Songbai's rule. It has not been completely concluded yet. Of course Yu Songbai remembers it clearly.
"Does Mr. Shen have anything to do with the Shen brothers?"
"I will send someone to investigate right now."
"Don't just investigate this one case." Yu Songbai stopped the person again, "That woman killed someone in public. She was either crazy or ruthless. Find out her origins carefully, and then search for her husband's family." Or someone from my mother’s family will come!”
"Yes, I understand."
After finally putting on his official uniform, Yu Songbai didn't look in the mirror to put on his official hat, but saw that nothing could be seen clearly in the dark mirror.
He looked at his subordinates again:
"You see, I wear this hat properly?"
The subordinate half-bent his legs and raised his head to look at it carefully for a while, then said: "The left side of your hat is a little higher."
left?
Yu Songbai raised his left hand and pressed the hat on his left side.
The subordinate became anxious: "Sir, this is the villain's left, your right!"
Yu Songbai quickly pressed the hat on the other side of his head again, feeling angry and anxious:
"You are a little person, how can I have your right and left?"
——
In the lobby of the Xicheng Procuratorate, a chair was placed in front of the murderer Zhao Surui.
He was not polite and sat down as soon as his butt dropped.
Si Shu looked at the behavior of "Ms. Shen" and sighed in his heart.
"Ms. Shen, my master has something important to do tomorrow and really can't take care of you. Why do you need to take action today?"
Zhao Surui didn't even raise his eyes, but pointed with his toes in the direction where Hu Hui's body lay:...
"How can such a piece of shit deserve to live for one more day? Besides, what does what I do have to do with...?"
When Shen Sanfai could hear his voice, he said that he would only send Hu Hui to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division.
Suddenly, Zhao Surui laughed.
At first it was just a "poof" and I couldn't help but laugh, and then it turned into laughter.
Shen Sanfei! How could she have thought of it? She was pretending to be in front of her, as if she didn't care.
The result? He, Zhao Surui, raised his hand and killed the person!
Ha ha ha ha!
Hahahahaha!
At this time, Shen Sanfei must have thought that he was in Shen
Are you eating and sleeping peacefully in the house? Maybe you think that the emperor who is accustomed to playing tricks has long forgotten the death of a person!
He doesn't!
Shen Sancai! She hurt him! She scolded him! She ridiculed him for not even knowing how to be a human being! What is a human being? He is just a foolhardy man, a common man who thinks he has some ambition. Who can't do it? He We have to show it to Shen Sanbai! He is disdainful! It’s not that he can’t!
"Four Rats, you can take the people away. Since I killed someone in public, I will naturally hand it over to Yusi for disposal. What do you think you are standing here for?"
Hearing Madam Shen reveal her identity casually, Si Shu lowered her head a little.
"Ms. Shen, my master will always keep you in mind."
As soon as he said this, Si Shu saw Mrs. Shen, who was calm and crazy just now, suddenly raise her head:
"You can eat random things, but you can't say random words! What do you care about? What nonsense are you talking about?"
Whether it's the insidious villain like Shen Sanfei who always takes Zhao Su Rui into his heart, or whether Zhao Su Rui, as the king of a country, takes the insidious villain Shen Sanfei into his heart, it's all nonsense!
Scary nonsense!
The murderous Emperor Zhaode couldn't help but shudder, then waved his hand and said to the four rats:
"You guys leave quickly!"
Si Shu raised his head and glanced at the yamen, then at the yamen who were stopped by Xichang Fanzi, and finally lowered his head and said:
"Ms. Shen, I will always take care of the big things for you. Why don't you go back and rest early..."
"I'm not going." Zhao Surui smiled coldly as he raised his eyes to look at his most useful eunuch, "What can you do for me? What else do I want you to do for me? I just killed someone. The merits and demerits of those who deserve to be killed are not something you... can decide."
The tip of his tongue touched his teeth, but the words "cats, dogs and beasts" that he was used to saying did not come out. He changed the topic and said:
"Since I have become a brave and foolhardy man, I have to work for a few more days. Go back and tell the people who asked you to come. Without me relying on everything, I still dare to kill people. Kill the people who deserve to be killed."
Knowing that Mrs. Shen was the person that the emperor cared about, Si Shu did not dare to disobey her easily. He led his people to withdraw but did not go far. He only stood guard at the intersection not far away. A familiar subordinate asked softly:
"Butler, should we report the news to the palace?"
The Four Rats shook their heads: "Tomorrow is the winter solstice, and the emperor will sacrifice to the sky. Such important things come first, and the rest must be put aside until the morning. If nothing happens, I will go back to the palace, and you can take people to continue guarding. "
After a pause, Si Shu said again:
"Mrs. Shen is favored by His Majesty. Although he has not yet entered the palace, His Majesty's thoughts on her are no less than those of the empress in the palace. Do you understand the meaning of this?"...
"I understand, manager, don't worry, I will never let Mrs. Shen make any mistakes."
Yu Songbai rushed to the government office in the snow in a two-person sedan, and saw that his official office was brightly lit.
He hurriedly got off the sedan and saw the government officials standing at the entrance of the lobby, not daring to move, and anger suddenly surged in his heart:
"It's just a corpse, how could it scare you like this?"
After all! He turned around and glanced at the body of Hu Hui in the main hall, and was immediately startled.
He had long forgotten Hu Hui's face, but this man's death was indeed miserable.
The black blood from his neck dripped all over the floor and sprayed everywhere.
Looking down, Yu Songbai couldn't help but pinch his legs when he saw the knife stuck in the evil root.
It would be painful for any man to see this kind of death.
A chair was placed in the hall, and a woman wearing a swallow-tailed green horse-faced skirt, a silver rat cloak, and a beaded hairpin on her head sat leaning on the chair with her legs raised.
Yu Songbai was stunned for a moment. He had been a county magistrate in the past, and it was still a low-level county where bandits had been plagued for many years. The mountain king sat in the county government office, which was probably nothing more than that.
"Are you the Shen who killed people in public?"
He opened his mouth to ask.
Unexpectedly, the woman who looked weak and even weak could even raise her eyebrows.
Not even bothering to move, he turned around and asked him:
"You are the censor who is in charge of this yamen? Then let me ask you, this Hu Hui does all kinds of evil in Yanjing City, why do you keep letting him cause chaos? As the censor of the city, what are your responsibilities?"
It was obviously the procuratorate that he had been in charge of for almost a year, but Yu Songbai couldn't help but feel in a trance, as if the other party was the superior Qingtian Master, and he was just a criminal who was about to be judged.
His momentum was taken away by others, and his words became a little weak:
"Ms. Shen, this is me asking you a question!"
"The censor of the city is in charge of public security and making decisions about lawsuits. Hu Hui just has a cousin who is in the fire armor team. How can he keep his stability for so many years? It is difficult for you to serve as the censor of the city one after another.
Aren’t you all just useless waste? Or have you all been so fattened up that you have forgotten that there is a court above you?”
