"What's going on? What are you doing here? Why don't you go and listen to the lecture!?" When Yongcheng Zhang Zhao's residence was opened, Zhang Zhao saw that Wei Qian and others were dressed as if they were out hunting. He thought they were skipping class to play again, and he was a little angry. asked.
Wei Qian pretended to be out of breath and panicked, and stammered: "Sir Zhang, it's bad, someone is committing murder in Piyong!"
"Killed!?" When Zhang Zhao heard this, a chill ran down his back, and he stood up with a cry. If Piyong was involved in a murder case, he would not be able to escape his involvement.
"Where did you see it? Who killed the person!?" Zhang Zhao asked anxiously.
Wei Qian pretended to gasp but said nothing, as if he was frightened. Zhang Zhao was already impatient, so he handed over a cup of tea and said, "Tell me soon after you drink it."
Wei Qian took it and took a sip before saying, "Don't blame us, sir. We wanted to hunt some game, but Song Xin was jealous of me and others. He not only injured my friend Mr. Zheng, but also ordered his servants to Kill someone!"
When Zhang Zhao heard this, he frowned and asked with some suspicion: "Song Xin, is that servant of Young Master Cao Chong? Why did he kill people?"
A young master next to Wei Qian said hurriedly: "It's not because there was some quarrel between him and Mr. Wei at the banquet at Xiahou Mansion that day."
Wei Qian immediately added jealously: "It was his maid who didn't know the etiquette, so we stopped her and taught her a lesson. The servant refused to accept it and came out and had a conflict with us. My retainer was afraid that I would be hurt, and he was eager to protect the master. He was killed by one of Song Xin's evil slaves. Kill him!"
They were worried that Zhang Zhao would only punish Song Yu, so they simply blamed Song Xin for everything.
Zhang Zhao's brows widened slightly when he heard that it was just a retainer who died. He thought it was a young master from some family who died. However, he didn't quite believe what Wei Qian said. Although that boy Song Xin didn't give him any benefits, he was a little annoyed. But Zhang Zhao didn't quite believe that he wanted to instruct his men to kill people.
But even so, this incident made him very unhappy. He then asked: "Where did Song Xin commit the murder?"
"He asked the murderer to chase us all the time. If we hadn't run fast, we might have been killed by him!"
Seeing that Zhang Zhao seemed suspicious, Wei Qian had another plan in his mind and said with added jealousy:
"I heard that Song Xin was unhappy because no one wrote a letter of recommendation for him, and he often insulted you behind your back!"
"You scolded me behind my back?" Zhang Zhao's face darkened, "What did he scold me for?"
"He scolded me for accepting bribes and deliberately embarrassing him." Wei Qian said with a look of indignation. "He also said... He also said that if he becomes successful in the future, he must come to you to get back the face he has today."
Zhang Zhao was furious, slammed the table and shouted: "Thief! How can this be unreasonable!" His beard was so angry that he said: "What a despicable boy, you dare to talk about me behind my back! Come on!"
After giving the order, two military men walked in outside the door, "What are your orders, sir?"
"Call up a team of soldiers and horses and follow me to the foot of the mountain. I will personally arrest that thief Song Xin!"
"No!" The soldier took the order and went down to order troops. Zhang Zhao still felt extremely angry, so he simply grabbed his sword, got up and walked outside. Wei Qian and others looked at each other, smiled sinisterly, and followed closely.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Zhao led a group of soldiers down aggressively. The students along the way looked at it and wondered what happened.
Not long after, Wei Qian saw that Song Yu had stopped his men and snatched Li Hansu back, but this was all part of his plan. Wei Qian chuckled and said,
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Pointing at Song Yu, he said, "Sir, it was that boy who killed someone."
Zhang Zhao was furious, and without asking, he coldly ordered: "Get them all for me."
Several soldiers stepped forward and stopped Song Yu and Li Hansu. Zhang Zhao did not listen to Song Yu's argument and led people directly into the courtyard where Song Xin lived. I called for a clerk and asked:
"Where's Song Xin, let him come out!!"
Before the clerk could knock on the door, Song Xin's door creaked open. Song Xin came out, bowed respectfully and asked, "Master Zhang, what do you want from me?"
"What's the matter? Humph!" Zhang Zhao thought Song Xin knew what he was asking, so he snorted coldly, "Tie him up!"
"What happened, sir? Why did you tie me up?" Song Xin didn't know what happened yet. At this time, he saw Song Yu and Li Hansu being pushed in.
"Bold Song Xin! You ordered your men to kill people, and you still want to resist arrest? Do you know that the court's laws are majestic!?" shouted a soldier under Zhang Zhao.
"Kill someone?" When Song Xin heard this, his face suddenly darkened and he looked at Song Yu, "You killed someone?"
Song Yu took a step forward and said, "I didn't kill anyone." He had long disliked the officials here protecting the powerful. As a ghost soldier, he didn't care about the rules of the human world.
Song Xin naturally believed Song Yu, turned to look at Zhang Zhao and said with a smile, "Oh? Please tell me when he killed someone."
"Huh, you're still laughing, but you won't be able to laugh for a while. Wei Qian, tell him!" Zhang Zhao smiled coldly.
Wei Qian immediately stepped forward and said, "Tell me, sir, he just killed my new guest at the well, and his body is still there. I have people watch the scene to prevent anyone from tampering with him."
Song Yu looked at Zhang Zhao and said unceremoniously: "You have a big beard, and you are still so confused. You arrest people without asking. They want to rob my young master's maid, and they use bows and arrows to do so." kill me."
"They want to kill you? Who saw it?" Zhang Zhao asked coldly. Wei Qian and Zheng Ping all shook their heads. "Your Majesty, although we like to have fun, we will not mess around in Piyong. This is clearly his murder and he wants to frame us to exonerate himself."
Li Hansu said loudly: "You are talking nonsense, it is obviously..."
"You slave, who asked you a question? Shut up!" Zhang Zhao shouted angrily, interrupting Li Hansu's words. Then he looked at Song Xin and said, "The young masters here are all well-educated, knowledgeable in etiquette, and good at studying classics. How can they be like you and other villagers in the mountains, who often get into fights?"
As soon as he said this, Song Yu smiled. When he was in the underworld, he had never seen such a shameless person.
"My young master..." Song Yu was mid-sentence when Wei Qian interrupted him with a sneer.
"Your young master?" Wei Qian glanced at Song Xin coldly and asked sarcastically, "This traitor? He has no official position and no recommendation letter. He still lives in this smelly place with slaves and servants. How can he?" Is he worthy of being called a young master?"
The people following him laughed: "Hahaha, a commoner dares to call himself a prince, bah!"
Zheng Ping echoed: "Yes, these days, cats and dogs have done some meritorious deeds and just want to become successful and ride on the heads of nobles like us. It's simply ridiculous!"
Seeing that Song Xin and Song Yu were silent, Zhang Zhao thought they were guilty and continued: "Also, a slave beat his master and killed people in Piyong and resisted arrest. This is an extra level of crime. I will report it later. If you kill the Prime Minister, you will be beheaded in public!"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Song Yu was furious after hearing this. She glared and shouted, "Why don't you beat the master? Do you think I am their slave?"
Zhang Zhao raised his chin and said in a deep voice: "Are you admitting that you did it? Very good!"
Song Xin suddenly felt that this old fox was really cunning, and he actually caught the loopholes in Song Yu's words. But the words had been spoken and everyone could hear them clearly, so it was difficult to take them back.
Zhang Zhao saw that Song Xin and others looked aggrieved, and said proudly: "All the slaves who live here must obey the orders of the masters above. If they are not your masters, what are they?"
Wei Qian laughed loudly and said: "Yes, everyone here is a slave. You should listen to my orders. I tell you to go east, but you can't go west. Do you understand!?"
Several young masters behind him also started cheering, "Yes, whatever Mr. Wei asks you to do, you do it! We just want to find this maid to accompany us on our hunting trip and have fun together. We don't break Piyong's rules." Your domestic slave actually took action, and you allowed yourself to commit murder, how can you behave like this!?"
Song Xin knew that the other party wanted to confirm this matter, so he suddenly laughed and said: "Master Zhang, does it mean that as long as you have a letter of recommendation, you can no longer be a slave?"
"That's natural. Every young master who enters Piyong must have a letter of recommendation. If not, he will be a slave."
"Oh, do you want to give Mr. Zhang some benefits?" Song Xin asked. Zhang Zhao's face turned pale. This kind of thing was tacitly understood by everyone. Song Xin actually said it in front of everyone. This was considered a violation of the rules.
He turned his face and scolded: "Song Xin, if you dare to slander imperial officials, I will definitely charge you with another crime!"
Song Xin took a breath, and suddenly said with a serious expression: "As Piyong Cheng, you accept bribes, and you dare to ask me if I know it's a crime? They hurt people in Piyong with secret arrows and you turned a blind eye, but Song Yu committed a crime when he saved people. Sin, what kind of rule is this!?”
Zhang Zhao angrily pointed at Song Xin and cursed: "You dirty-talking, degrading little bastard, how dare you say any more nonsense!?"
Song Xin said: "Sir, why don't you even give up on your dignity? These dirty words are insulting to gentlemen. I'm afraid you're not talking about me, right?"
"You! Get it!" Zhang Zhao turned pale with anger. Wei Qian jumped out to gloat and cursed: "How dare you slander Mr. Zhang for taking bribes! We are going to sue you! Mr. Zhang, we will testify for you! You are an honest official, there is no such thing as accepting bribes!"
Zhang Zhao gave the order, and the soldiers behind him were about to catch Song Xin and the others. Song Yugang wanted to resist, but Song Xin was afraid that he would continue to hurt others and said, "Don't do anything, protect her."
Song Yu then stopped resisting and allowed the soldiers to tie them up and walked towards the barracks down the mountain.
When passing by Wei Qian, he whispered in Song Xin's ear: "Boy, I will get back the humiliation you gave me doubled."
Song Xin replied coldly: "Be careful to humiliate yourself."
Wei Qian sneered and whispered, "That maid of yours is very pretty. I'm going to enjoy her tonight."
"If you really dare, then I will prevent you from seeing the sun tomorrow." At this time, Song Xin was pushed by the soldiers behind him. He turned his head and showed a cold smile to Wei Qian.
Wei Qian looked at his back with a little fear in his heart, but he also felt incomprehensible and resentful. Zheng Ping came over and offered advice, "Don't worry, Young Master Wei. My brother and Brother Liu Mi have also been humiliated by him. Let's work together to prevent him from staying here for a day! By then, that Song Yu and that maidservant will both run away. Don’t fall!”
