Without saying anything, Zhang Kaitai rushed back to the front hall first. Xu Qi'an also wanted to fight with Zhang Jinluo, but no one was quick.
When he arrived at the vestibule at a very fast speed, he happened to see Zhang Kaitai pointing to the sword and cut the last paper man into two pieces.
At this time, there were a lot of shredded paper on the ground, and nearly ten paper people were looking at each other.In addition, two teenagers were lying on the ground, their throats were cut by sharp blades, and blood was splattered everywhere, and they were already dead.
What's going on?Xu Qi'an was shocked.
Many paper people suddenly emerged from these two people, trying to kill people to silence them, but we stopped them.Yin Luo, who was responsible for the guard, answered, but the answer was Zhang Kaitai.
What about human offenders?While Zhang Kaitai asked, his eyes looked at the middle-aged man in brocade clothes curled up in the corner and protected by several gongs.
He squatted in the corner with his head in his arms, facing the wall, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
Hello, it's all right.The Gonggong next to him kicked him, and the middle-aged man collapsed softly to the ground.
Everyone's faces changed slightly. Yin Luo, who was in charge of guarding, ran over and looked at his breath and neck. His face looked ugly and he clasped his fists in panic:
If the guards are not effective, please punish them.
Zhang Kaitai suddenly became very gloomy, with blue veins on his forehead blooming, and he was silent for a few seconds, and slowly breathed: It’s not your fault.
He walked to the corpse, pinched the middle-aged man's collar, shook it gently, and the clothes shattered into pieces in the stinging sound.
The middle-aged man's naked body was exposed to everyone's eyes, and there was a bright red mark on his chest.
This is a wizard's curse and killing technique. If you take people's hair, blood, nails, etc., and supplement it with the birth date, you can kill people invisibly.Zhang Kaitai shook his head.
This is unpredictable, especially a system like Wufu, which is only good at violence.
What about paper man?Xu Qi'an asked.
Zhang Kaitai squatted beside the corpse and pondered for a long time. These paper people made me think of something. The Witch God Cult is unpredictable, with cursing and killing techniques, killing people in dreams, and the ability to manipulate ghosts and corpses.
These paper people are ghosts attached to them and are driven to do things for the performers.
Xu Qi'an's smart man instantly understood what Zhang Kaitai meant and said in surprise: The well in the backyard is... a wizard from the Witch God Sect used to raise ghosts.
This can also explain why it is a ban rather than a thorough purification.
The wizard is probably nearby.
But now he has left, and our raid caught him off guard, so he lurked around and used a spell to kill people to silence him. The man is dead and he will not continue to stay nearby.
Zhang Jinluo, can't you even sense this paper man?I didn't find the paper man hiding on these teenagers just now.
First, the spiritual consciousness of a warrior can only warn things that threaten themselves; second, the paper man is not only a ghost attached to, but also a seal that can block perception; third, the paper man does not have strong lethality and is usually used to do things rather than kill enemies.
Xu Qi'an suddenly became furious and cursed the waste. The black and golden sword was unsheathed, and the sharp sword light slashed through the beams of the hall. The broken wood and tiles were smashed down, causing the women and the young men to hug each other and scream.
In the shadows separated by the street, I saw the collapsed roof in the distance, and the noise was coming. The person hiding in the shadow sneered and then fell into silence.
……
The Minister of Works Office.
In the master bedroom, my deceased wife passed away for many years, but there was no secretary of the Ministry of Works, who had never returned the strings, and he slept soundly with his concubine in his arms.
A paper man drifted into the yard with the night wind, landing lightly on the ground. After a few seconds, he got up and squeezed himself into the crack in the door with difficulty.
It carefully avoided the charcoal basin, walked to the bed with a raw pace, and drove a light breeze to the bed, landing beside the pillow of the Minister of Works.
The paper man stood up shakingly on the pillow, rushing his head to the face of the Minister of Works.
The Minister of Works frowned and slowly opened his eyes. When he saw the paper man on the pillow, he suddenly woke up.
I first observed the concubine and confirmed that she was sleeping soundly. Then I picked up the paper man, got out of bed and came to the table, lit the candle on the table, spread the paper man, and squinted my eyes and read the small words on the fly head on the paper.
Not long after I finished reading it, the Minister of Works' face changed drastically and his beard shook.After he finished reading it, he let out a breath of turbid air with relief, regaining his calmness and ease.
After burning the paper man with candlelight, the Minister of Works returned to the bed, looked at the sleeping concubine, pondered for a while, slowly picked up the pillow, and covered the concubine's mouth and nose...
……
The next day, the Ministry of Justice.
The Minister of Justice who got up early came to the yamen and personally went to the prison to inspect and arrest the people here.
The corruption case involved a total of 46 people, from Jinluo to Tongluo, were all detained in the Ministry of Justice.
Originally, according to the rules, the three yamen should have their own detention and interrogated separately.
However, the Wang Dang lost two core members in the Tax Silver case and the Sang Bo case, and was incompatible with Wei Yuan and was even more enthusiastic than the Dali Temple Minister who was a party member.
People are doing things and God is watching. Do you think that being silent can escape the king's law?The Minister of Justice sneered and shook his head:
This official has checked your property and drafted a memorandum. After His Majesty has read it, no one of you will run away.
Of course, I am still willing to give you a chance.Who instructed you to embezzle silver and oppress the people?Is it Wei Yuan?
No one answered him.
Suddenly, someone sneered: Corruption?Lord Shangshu, please tell me how much money I have embezzled?I have been working for more than ten years and I am not greedy for a single coin.
Humph, he was also trying to show off his words... The Minister of Justice walked over with the voice and saw the man talking. At first glance, he was attracted by the neat prison cell.
The stolen goods and dead grass on the ground were all swept into the corners, the spider webs in the corners were gone, and the straw mat was still tattered, but it was neatly fitted on the pavement, and every detail was organized.
The Minister of Justice was puzzled and looked at the man who was talking. This was a scheming man with an old-fashioned look. Although he was wearing a prison uniform, he gave people a clean and tidy refreshing. His hair was neatly combed, and the sleeves rolled up on both sides were extremely symmetrical.
Looking at this man and the prison cell, including the Minister of Justice, several officials of the Ministry of Justice felt an inexplicable sense of comfort...
What is this person's name?Shangshu Sun stood up with his hands behind his back.
Li Yuchun.
How much silver did you greedy for?There are several Ah apartments in the inner city.
The official opened the booklet and looked at it for a while, but didn't say anything for a long time. After being glanced at by Shangshu Sun, he spoke in a low voice:
There is a simple courtyard in the inner city, with an old mother and a pregnant wife at home, money... The Ministry of Justice only plundered fifty taels of silver in his home.
Fifty taels of silver?Shangshu Sun was shocked. He was ashamed of a silver gong, but he only had fifty taels of silver.
How did you check it?Shangshu Sun felt that this was the people from the Ministry of Justice who were careless in their work.
The official whispered in his ear for a moment. After listening, Sun Shangshu was silent, as if he was too lazy to take care of this clean man, so he turned around and left.
In the prison where the quietness was restored, Jiang Luzhong sighed with his back against the wall.
Lao Jiang, what are your plans?Jin Luo next door asked, knocking on the wall.
What are your plans? After you have dismissed, you can make another way to make a living.I won’t be a secret son, my wife and children are in the capital.Jiang Luzhong said angrily.
Hey, I have no children, but I can go to the world, and I am tired of staying in this place in Beijing.The Jin Luo said.
Bullshit.Jiang Luzhong sneered: You said a while ago that you planned to get married and have children and settle down in the capital.I hate that I haven't plundered money in the past few years and only made some small profits, otherwise it would be unfair to lie in this prison.
Haha, then you will be released from prison and become a bandit.
roll.
The worst result is to be dismissed, at least there will be no threat to life. A high-ranking warrior, as long as he does not make too much mistakes, the court will not be sentenced to death.
The destructive power of a high-ranking martial artist who started to be crazy should not be underestimated.
Why!There was another sigh, followed by a long silence.
After leaving the prison, the Minister of Justice asked: Why didn’t I see the little macaque named Xu?
It seems to have escaped.Officials reply.
Have you issued a wanted order?
It has been drafted and can be published after the yamen stamps it.
Shangshu Sun nodded with satisfaction: How much money did that kid greedy?
Yesterday, someone was sent to investigate the Xu Mansion and only found hundreds of pieces of silk and satin, but not much silver.Officials said.
Shangshu Sun said yes: Put away the silk and silk, and send them to the adults in the yamen after the matter is finished.
This...we didn't dare to confiscate those things.The official whispered.
Shangshu Sun's eyes sharpened: Huh?
The official smiled bitterly and said: That, that was given by His Majesty. No one dared to ask for Ah. Looking back, Xu Pingzhi sued the emperor...
...I heard that guy often goes to teach the Fangsi?Shangshu Sun found another breakthrough.
Yes, we sent someone to ask the madam of Jiaofangsi. In just two months, the surname Xu slept with eight courtesans in Jiaofangsi and was in love with Fuxiang in Yingmei Pavilion.
Isn't this the case?Shangshu Sun was a little excited: It turned out that all the money was spent on women's belly, and the confessions of those women in the Jiaofangsi can also be used as evidence.
The official said in embarrassment: But the confessions of those women are very unified...
Shangshu Sun looked at him with a questioning look, and the officials said angrily: Those women said they admired the talent of the surname Xu and volunteered to serve without taking any action.
Shangshu Sun shook his body and almost became anxious.
If you have a bastard, you have no flaws, so just arrange flaws for him. If you have no money, you have no money, you have money to him!Sun Shangshu said in a deep voice:
This official will never let this little miscellaneous person go.
He returned to the hall angrily and took a sip of warm tea. Before his butt was hot, the official rushed in and reported:
Lord Shangshu, a message was passed in the palace and Your Majesty summoned him.
Shangshu Sun looked at the water leak in the corner. At this time, the morning court had passed.Your Majesty summoned him, either because there was something wrong or the small court meeting.
Why is Your Majesty so diligent?He summoned his ministers to discuss matters every few days... The Minister of Justice nodded and said: Prepare a sedan chair!
When he arrived at the vestibule at a very fast speed, he happened to see Zhang Kaitai pointing to the sword and cut the last paper man into two pieces.
At this time, there were a lot of shredded paper on the ground, and nearly ten paper people were looking at each other.In addition, two teenagers were lying on the ground, their throats were cut by sharp blades, and blood was splattered everywhere, and they were already dead.
