Chapter 114

: A great traitor seems loyal

Two yamen runners waiting outside the class room were grinding their teeth. When they heard a scream in the room, they couldn't help but be shocked. They hurriedly kicked open the door and saw two chairs lying on one side. The prisoner had already broken free from the rope and threw Lord Yang to the ground.

The two rushed over and twisted Wang Jinglong's arm, but found that his body was soft and powerless. Yang Ling was covered in blood and didn't know where the injury was. He couldn't help but be stunned.

Yang Ling gasped and said, "Pull him away, this man... this man went crazy, broke free from the rope and rushed over, snatched my official's sword, and almost killed me."

Seeing that Lord Yang could still speak, the two officials felt relieved and hurriedly threw Wang Jinglong's body aside, quickly helped him up, and shouted outside: "Come on, the prisoner is out of trouble, and assassinate Lord Yang!"

The elders in the lobby were waiting anxiously. Yang Fang, Wang Yang and others had a deep prejudice against Yang Ling. After hearing Wang Ping's words, they only said that Yang Ling had avenged his personal revenge and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of supervising the construction of Tai Mausoleum to torture Wang Jinglong to death. This is a common thing in the officialdom, so they naturally believe it.

Wang Jinglong had no way to ask for advice, and in order to survive, he had to escape from prison and go to Beijing to file a complaint. He felt compassion for a moment, and he was afraid that Yang Ling would use his power to suppress the city-supervisor torture and beat Wang Jinglong to death, so he rushed over. Unexpectedly, when he arrived here, he saw Yang Ling's evidence and evidence were there. It turned out that Wang Jinglong bought revenge. He was stunned.

Fortunately, Li Dongyang's reasonable words touched Yang Ling. As long as he did not pursue the matter, with the influence of everyone, the emperor would not aggravate Wang Jinglong's charges, which could be considered as an explanation to the old friend. Liu Jian took a bite of tea and asked Li Dongyang hesitantly: "Binzhi, do you think Yang Ling is willing to go out of the way?"

Li Dongyang smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir. Yang Ling is not a cruel person. He can't do anything to kill him. Besides, the Three Dukes and Six Tribes pleaded for the criminals, and even the emperor wanted to sell some thin face. Moreover, although Yang Ling was a victim, he was actually not hurt."

Wang Yang snorted coldly and said angrily: "He has a great face. He has been in Beijing for less than a year. Something happens every month. Speaking of the case of the Imperial Tomb, Wang Shangshu was only deceived and asked for severe punishment of Yang Ling. At most, he would be fined for half a year and a little punished. Now he has been driven to Jinling.

Wang Jinglong was confused for a moment. In order to rescue his father, he forced him to buy a prostitute concubine, according to the Ming Dynasty law, he was punished by rebellion. Even if the crime was plus third grade, the maximum punishment would be only one hundred sticks and exiled for three thousand miles. Moreover, he was cut off from his fame and fortune. But he was unlucky to meet the emperor personally and this criminal offender was really unfair. If we old guys could not even save such a nephew, it would be a shame to spread this matter today."

Wang Hua, the Minister of Rites, joked: "Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the three Dukes and six ministries have come forward to plead for mercy and invade the crime. Apart from Shen Wansan of the Hongwu Dynasty, there is probably only Wang Jinglong. Is Yang Ling's face greater than Emperor Taizu?"

After he said this, everyone's expressions suddenly eased. He said that Shen Wansan repeatedly disobeyed the emperor. Didn't Emperor Hongwu finally sell his ministers' face, take back the imperial edict, and change the death to exile? Which official sitting in the lobby now has no higher rank than Yang Ling? He just wanted him to open the door and avoid Wang Jinglong and the death. How dare he act alone?

Han Wen, the Minister of Revenue, glanced at everyone. Seeing Yang Fang, Wang Yang and others with a look of success, they couldn't help but shake their heads secretly. With their face, he didn't believe that Yang Ling would dare to do anything to Wang Jinglong. He was just worried that Wang Qiong was eager to love his son and ignored the king's law. Sure enough, he sent someone to save Wang Jinglong to escape. If Wang Jinglong had not been unlucky, he would have become an imperial criminal. With the power of the Wang family, this false accusation would be no big deal. But now that he is an imperial criminal, saving him from trouble is to ignore the emperor, the crime would be great."

He thought about it and saw Hu Zhou in the hall, but he was not in a position to express his concern. Yang Shousui sat next to him. Seeing his face, he knew what his old friend was worried about. He couldn't help but smile, stretched out his finger and quickly drew a few words on his collar: "The slave is good at the master, and there is no evidence to investigate."

Han Wen looked at it and said "ah" gently, "Yes, Wang Qiong has no enemies in the court, so he has to use this reason to make excuses. Who would take the blame to pursue a 70-year-old man's behavior of saving his son? Isn't it shameful?

He smiled slightly at Yang Shousui. Just as he was about to show his intention, he heard the prisoner's assassination from the hall. The adults couldn't help but stand up suddenly and looked outside in shock and suspicion. A yamen officer ran in quickly and said, "Sir, the prisoner broke free from the ropes and intended to assassinate Lord Yang."

"What? What happened to Lord Yang (that man)?" Hu Zhou didn't care about his junior high school and rushed to ask Yang Lin. Yang Lin asked about Wang Jinglong's life and death, but he was worried about Yang Ling's life and death. If something happened to Yang Ling with him, he would inevitably be dismissed from office and left.

The Yamachai said with a sad face: "Mr. Yang was injured and covered in blood. I don't know how serious it is. The prisoner has been stabbed to death by Lord Yang's backhand."

Liu Jian paused and led several adults to the class room where the prisoners were temporarily imprisoned for trial. When he arrived at the class room, Yu Tangchun, who had already heard the news, was crying like a crying person. When the adults saw that Yang Ling was covered in blood, they didn't know that it was Wang Jinglong's splash.

After all, it was Yang Ling's first time to kill someone. Although he was so angry after hearing Wang Jinglong's vicious thoughts, he was panicked, and it was indeed painful to stab him with a sword. Therefore, his face was pale and his panic was not as if he was pretending. When he looked at Wang Jinglong lying on the ground, his vicious and sinister smile was still hanging on his face, which looked extremely ferocious. The situation really looked like what the Yacha said just now.

Li Dongyang was shocked and regretful, and a look of suspicion flashed across his face. He rushed over to support Yang Ling and asked, "Mr. Yang, how are you injured?"

Seeing that he didn't ask about the incident, Yang Ling stared at his expression, as if he wanted to see the clues from it, and his heart was a little weak. Fortunately, he was already pale and no one could see the problem. Yang Ling replied: "Sir, Xia Guan was also willing to let him go. Unexpectedly, he hated too deeply, and suddenly broke free from the rope and snatched Xia Guan's sword and stabbed him on my arm. Fortunately, he was not strong enough, so Xia Guan snatched the sword back and stabbed him to death. Xia Guan... Xia Guan is not in trouble."

Li Dongyang could not see the flaw, and stood up in disappointment. He was stunned for a long time before sighing, waved his hand powerlessly: "Mr. Yang is fine if he is not seriously injured. Hurry up and bandage him for Lord Yang, and then send him a doctor to the doctor for treatment."

Seeing that these people were all looking like torches. She was afraid that there would be flaws in her words after staying for a long time, so she struggled to stand up and said, "Xiaguan has simply bandaged her, but she lost too much blood and was a little dizzy. She really couldn't hold on for a long time. Dear lords, this ending is as expected by Xiaguan... Alas, Xiaguan... Xiaguan will surrender first."

Liu Jian and others watched him being supported by Yu Tangchun, Xue Limei swayed and walked out. After a while, Yang Shousui roared angrily: "Nonsense! This villain clearly didn't want to let Wang Jinglong go, but he actually pretended to agree and deliberately killed someone. It was really sinister!"

Han Wen smiled bitterly and replied in the words he had just passed by: "The matter in the dark room has no evidence to investigate, and this matter can only become a headless case."

Except for Wang Hua who believed what Yang Ling said and Li Dongyang had some doubts, the other people did not believe that Wang Jinglong would be free from his ties to kill the officials. Isn’t that seeking death? Therefore, they all looked angry, but there was no evidence to investigate this matter and could not question Yang Ling.

Xie Qian smiled bitterly and sighed: "It's just... we swore to keep Wang Jinglong alive, but now we are really ashamed of our old friend."

Liu Jian was calm at this time and shook his head slightly and said, "It's useless to say more, alas! When the Bingma Si has examined the body, I will send someone to collect the body for him. Binzhi... This fact is hard to say. Please write a letter and tell Wang Shangshu."

Li Dongyang nodded silently, turned his head to Hu Zhou and said, "Tell all the criminals to the Ministry of Justice for interrogation, tell them that the progress of the case should be submitted to me at any time!" Now the position of the Minister of Justice is still hanging, and the Grand Secretary Li Dongyang is temporarily acting for the Ministry of Justice. This case involves both the imperial offender and the life lawsuit has also been caused. The small five-city military officer naturally has no right to interfere.

Hu Zhou was as if he had received a general amnesty when he heard this, so he quickly agreed.

Yang Ling sat in the horse sedan chair. Yu Tangchun, Xue Limei sat down with him without avoiding suspicion. Wang Jinglong only wanted to be happy for a moment. After a vicious speech, Yang Ling was born, and the two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and the murderous aura increased, but he would not be too deep to stab the sword himself. The blood on his body was mainly splashed in Wang Jinglong's accent.

But despite this, seeing that his face was pale, he still had a bloody smell on his body except for the blood robe. How could the two girls not be afraid? Yu Tangchun said in tears: "Master, it's not good for all maids. Maids are good at making decisions, which hurts the master. Maids are willing to be punished by the master."

Yang Ling was still thinking about Wang Jinglong’s vicious words. He couldn’t help but sneer and said, “That beast, I don’t think about it, I only know how to return to others, as if the whole world owes him, I should kill him!”

"Huh?" Yu Tangchun was so clever. After hearing this, his beautiful eyes immediately looked at him in surprise, with a look of doubt. Yang Ling felt a stern in his heart. Although the two women would not harm him, it would be better not to reveal this secret. He took a breath and turned around and said, "I want to let him go, but he actually stabbed me with a sword. Shouldn't he die?"

Xuelimei said angrily: "The master is right. Our family doesn't owe him anything to the Wang family. They have always been looking for our family's fault. Relying on his years of official career, he has a strong sense of personnel in the court, and has been bullying others again and again. Do you not understand the principle of the emperor and the ministers? It deserves to die!"

Yang Ling smiled slightly. This little girl is simple and has a clear love and hate, so she is very coaxed. Seeing that his expression calmed down, Yu Tangchun felt relieved. Yang Ling turned around and couldn't help but look straight again and said, "Don't you be proud of such a big misunderstanding. I won't punish you. The people in the house are all over? Even if you mistakenly think that your biological father came to ask for help, shouldn't I let me know about this?"

When Yu Tangchun heard his scolding, she felt dizzy when she felt sorry for her life. She was bought back by Yang Ling and was destined to be someone else's private property. No matter whether she is a maid or a concubine, she could not change this subordinate relationship, and even her biological parents could not decide anything about her.

Now that she secretly took out her private property without telling her master, she gave it to her biological father. Yang Ling just needs to report to the official and drag her to the court to death and beat her to death, no one sympathized with her. Although she was sure that Yang Ling would not treat her like this, she still felt nervous and afraid when she heard Yang Ling's face so fiercely. She rolled up the corners of her clothes and lowered her head and did not dare to look at Yang Ling. She just said timidly: "My maid knows that she is wrong. The maid wants to beat and kill him, but she dares not have any complaints."

Seeing that she was about to cry, Yang Ling couldn't bear to force her too much. He turned his head and said, "Just know the mistake, go back and find your wife to get the family law!"

Xue Limei didn't believe that Yang Ling was willing to punish them. Now she heard that Yu Tangchun asked Yu Tangchun to find her mother to follow the family law. She was such a good person. She treated them like her sisters, so how could she be willing to punish them? The master clearly intended to let go of the water. She hid behind Yang Ling and couldn't help but stick out her tongue quietly, stretched out her hand from behind Yang Ling, pulled Yu Tangchun's sleeves, and made a face at her.

Yang Ling returned home under the escort of his personal army. Han Youniang was nervous and had a white face. She held his hand in a panic, but she didn't dare to untie the wound on his arm without authorization. She stomped her feet in a hurry and said, "Hurry up, go and invite Sister Wenxin." Yu Tangchun saw the wife's appearance, shy and ashamed. She stood aside with her head down and did not dare to make a sound.

Gao Wenxin has been busy these days, and has moved a lot of medical books. He has been writing in the room without any trouble. Han Youniang saw that she had something to do and didn't ask anyone to disturb her. At this time, Gao Wenxin was looking through the ancients in the room. Xuelimei and a little maid held her hand and pulled her into the wife's room, and was stunned for no reason.

When this woman studied the knowledge, she was also a bit ungrateful like a man. Gao Wen was elegant and quiet, quite like a lady from a family, with a graceful temperament and tall figure. She was more mature than Han Youniang, and Yu Tangchun and others were mature. She usually wore maid clothes and was not as elegant as a woman serving the people.

Now she was pulled out of her embroidery room, wearing only a home-floor jacket, a pair of open-top pants in the lake and green area, and her embroidered hair was fluffy. She was so charming that she was indescribable to a mature woman. Especially her plump body, slender lower body, and soft pants, her graceful curves were exposed. It was very attractive.

This is the first time Yang Ling has seen a woman wearing pants. Especially when she is wearing short clothes on her upper body, she has seen too many skirts since this era. At first glance, she feels very friendly. When Gao Wenxin was seen by him, her face turned red. She hurriedly walked to his side and visited the wound on his body, not daring to fall directly under his eyes.

Although the open-top pants are regular household clothes, they are developed from stick pants. They can only be worn in the inner house. When you want to go out, you still have to wear a silk skirt outside. Why do she have the nerve to be watched by Yang Ling? Gao Wen's face warmly untied the tissues tied around his arms, rolled up the sleeves of the robe to check the wound, couldn't help but sigh, and said to Han Youniang with a smile: "Madam, don't worry, the master's wound is not deep, and the blood is stopped now. It's okay, wait until the maid takes some white medicine to apply."

Han Youniang was relieved after hearing this, and resented at Yang Ling: "My husband has brought so many people there, why did he hurt himself? If I had known that Youniang would have accompanied you. What I just now was so scared."

Xue Limei was quick-talking and angrily angrily robbed Wang Jinglong of Yu Jie'er. After being arrested, he revenges and plotted to assassinate the master. Han Youniang was extremely angry. Gao Wenxin turned her eyes and looked at Yang Ling with a little strange and suspicious look.

Gao Wenxin hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, this wound is not a problem, but... it is inevitable that there will be a large scar after it is recovered. Please move it to the maid's hospital room and let the maid apply a knife and needle? Don't worry, the maid applies anesthetics and will never be painful."

Yang Ling smiled disapprovingly and said, "Why do you have to be so troublesome? The wound is not on the face, there is a wound...uh...Okay." As he said, he looked up and saw Gao Wenxin's look. There was a little cleverness inside. Yang Ling is not a real scholar. When he saw this strange look, he immediately saved: Could it be that this sword injury was stabbed by itself or someone else? People can detect it at this time? Yes, there are differences in angles and strength. If someone has studied trauma, he will inevitably see the clues. Gao Wenxin is going to help me do something.

Han Youniang became worried again after hearing this and said anxiously: "Sister, isn't my husband okay? Why... why do you still need to apply knives?"

Yang Ling and Gao Wenxin looked at each other, knowing each other well. Yang Ling couldn't help but smile and said, "Young mother, can you believe in the medical skills of the goddess doctor? I have heard that this is a skilled medical skill. The wound will heal faster. Don't worry, can I walk or run? Hahaha..."

Yang Ling stood up with a smile and said, "Just go over, don't follow me, so don't be afraid when you see the flesh and blood."

A look of admiration flashed in Gao Wenxin's eyes. When he saw him walking out of the door first, he smiled slightly and said to Han Youniang: "Don't worry, my sister only needs two cups of tea to ensure that she will give you a good husband."

Han Youniang's face turned red and she pretended to be angry: "Youniang thinks you are your own sister, and you are now imitating Xueer and the others to make fun of me. If one day... Humph, I won't drink your tribute tea."

Gao Wen's face turned red and he opened his mouth with shame and annoyance, but he didn't dare to say anything. She stomped her feet hatefully and quickly escaped.

Although Han Youniang saw that her husband was free to move and was very trusting in Gao Wenxin's medical skills, she still wanted to help. But just took two steps, Yu Tangchun had already timidly pulled her sleeve and said sympathetically: "Madam, the master's injury is caused by his maid. Please punish him."

Han Youniang said laughingly: "Who thought Wang Jinglong would break free from the constraints and commit crimes to hurt people? Don't cause trouble with him."

Yu Tangchun knelt down and said sadly: "No matter what, this matter is always caused by the maid. Besides... Besides, the master told the maid to find the maid to obtain the family's law. How dare the maid refuse to obey?"

Han Youniang hurriedly helped her up and said inexplicably: "What do you mean by this? Where is there any family law in our family? Family law...uh... Family law..."

On the second day, Wei Shen, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, submitted the trial results to Li Dongyang. The case was very smooth and he had never been punished at all. Wang Ping confessed that he was told to stay in the capital to take care of the young master. Seeing that the young master was tortured in the tomb, he made a fuss to make a move. He hired some people to save him, but now he has killed the young master and only asked for death.

Those thieves were prepared to be arrested. They said they had no choice but to live, so they wandered around to ask for food. After being tempted by Wang Ping's heavy money, they helped him steal the corpse, save people, and rob other people's families.

Wei Shen investigated it. The situation was true. As for these thieves, they were all about them everywhere. Since they had already obtained confessions and had not sent people to collect evidence from thousands of miles away, they transferred the case file to Grand Secretary Li.

Li Dongyang was very happy to see that Wang Qiong had not been involved in the case. He said that the master had no evidence to find out that Wang Qiong was on the head. Even if he had any suspicion, his old friend was in Jinling and his child was tragically killed, he would not do anything to hurt the situation again.

Seeing that Wei Shen was still fair in his judgment, he planned to rob prisoners according to the Ming Dynasty law, and those who created the intentions were snatched for a thousand miles, and those who followed him had attempted to kidnap. The master's envoy was in charge of ten years, and the master's envoy was snatched for 100 people and was sentenced to one hundred people. He was sentenced to two crimes and sentenced to be beheaded, and several robbers were exiled for 3,000 miles, and were sent to the Zamukou Transportation Office in Liangzhou to act as a coachman to transport military supplies.

Li Dongyang picked up a ticket sign, picked up a pen and thought about it, and wrote on the paper sign: "The sentencing is fair, and I want to allow it. However, the emperor's wedding is about to be celebrated, and it is not advisable to see blood. The main culprit was snatched and executed, and the accomplices were pardoned and punished, and they were sent to Liangzhou. Li Dongyang, the Grand Secretary of the Palace of Jinshen, June 27th."

The two lines of strokes are round, vigorous and plump, and after writing in small regular script in elegant style, Li Dongyang brought up the ticket sign and blew it. He applied some glue on the sign and gently glued it to a corner of the file.

He frowned and looked at the book for a while, and suddenly pulled a piece of paper, wrote the two big words Yang Ling on the paper, and wrote two small words "good and evil" and "loyal and treacherous" below. After a while, he picked up the pen and erased the word "evil". The wolf's brush was hung on the word "loyal and treacherous" but hesitated for a long time and it was difficult to write ink.
