Chapter 136

The law cannot exist to make everyone have a conscience.

Instead, we should set up an iron cage to clearly tell people what to do and what not to do, so as to make people with evil thoughts fear and fear, so as to keep the evil thoughts in their hearts firmly in the cage.

As for those who can't keep their evil thoughts in mind, let's change this iron cage to close them - welcome to Beijing yamen prison.

This is the meaning of the law.

"It's getting late. We're going back to the palace to recover our life." Li Ji opened his mouth.

Ji Dong quickly gave gifts.

Xia Tingzhen surong said, "I went to the palace with Grandpa Li and asked the emperor for a crime."

Li Ji whispered slowly and said, "Lord Xia has just learned about it. Considering the overall situation, the emperor must not blame Lord Xia..."

While they were talking, they walked outside the hall.

When Xia Tingzhen passed Zhan Yunzhu's side, she swept the remaining light at each other.

He had heard about it on the road. Zhan Qian's son came forward to testify against his father's guilt.

His second son didn't even know to eradicate such a future trouble... It's no wonder that he would be caught secretly because of his arrogance.

He noticed that two eyes fell on him successively, and Zhan Yunzhu's expression didn't fluctuate at all.

It seems that he really won the bet today.

As he stood here, he knew that this would lead to murder.

But even if he did nothing, there would be no fewer people who wanted to kill him.

Xia family

Even Zhaozhao, who surprised him this time.

Thinking of this, Zhan Yunzhu showed a bitter smile at the bottom of his eyes.

He hated her, but he was more complicated and unwilling.

He is really unwilling to lose all this, including the deep affection accumulated with Zhaozhao since he was a child.

"Mr. Zhan, go back first." Ji Dong looked at him and said, "I will order people to verify and interrogate the evidence sent by Mr. Zhan today. I will also inform Mr. Zhan of the follow-up progress."

It's a pity for this young man.

"Thank you, Lord Lao Ji."

Zhan Yunzhu gave a deep salute and slowly withdrew.

Ji Dong looked at the young man with regret again and finally looked at Xu Ying who was still waiting in the hall.

"Your sister's body is in the backyard. If Miss Xu wants to see it, go and have a look..."

Ji Dong's tone was gentle and said, "but now it still needs to be tested. Only when the case is really settled can you let your sister settle down. The Yamen's handling rules are here. I hope Miss Xu can understand."

"Lord Ji is serious."

Xu Ying knelt down and kowtowed to Ji Dong: "I'm lucky to have Lord Ji preside over justice. Xu Ying is very grateful."

"This......" Ji Dong sighed and hurriedly helped him falsely: "this is my duty. Miss Xu, please get up quickly."

He didn't make much effort at all. He thought he deserved it.

Xu Ying doesn't think so.

She knows who really helped her, but it is undeniable that Lord Ji is indeed a good official.

If not, she's afraid she won't even have the chance to review this time.

Xu Ying stood up and turned to look outside the hall.

Most of the crowd had dispersed, and only a few people remained in their place to talk.

Lanterns hung high outside the Yamen. In a hazy light of light orange, she didn't see the girl she wanted to see.

But even so, Xu Ying couldn't help but wet her eyes in the emptiness of leaving a sense of desolation after the excitement.

Tears blurred, she seemed to see Su Su wearing a large Luo Yi, holding a pile of books in her arms, dressed as a female teacher, smiling sweetly at her.

Xu Ying stood there staring at the scene, tears rolling down.

It was not until the officials around her urged her and asked her if she wanted to go to the backyard that the illusion in front of her disappeared.

Xu Ying raised her hand and wiped away her tears.

Looks like Sue missed her too.

She's going to see Susu now.

In fact, Xu Mingyi did not go far, but was afraid that after the people left, he would feel different if he stood in a prominent place again.

Standing in the shadow of an old willow tree not far from the yamen, she saw Xu Ying go down to the inner yamen backyard accompanied by the official, and then settled down.

"Thank you, Mr. Wu, for helping me with this case many times."

Xu Mingyi takes ah Kui to Wu Tsui standing not far away and seriously thanks him.

"Didn't Miss Xu prepare a birthday gift for me, so it's offset."

Xu Mingyi was surprised.

This so-called offset is too much difference, isn't it?

"If you don't think it's enough, please invite me to the Qingfeng building again tomorrow." the young man said meticulously, as if he was putting forward a very serious condition.

Xu Mingyi smiled and nodded.

"When young master Wu is free, you can send a message to me at any time."

After all, he must not be idle in the capital.

Wu Tsui looked at her when he heard the speech.

Do you want him to take the initiative to send a message for such a thing?

Should he write to her and say - you can invite me to dinner today?

Isn't that really embarrassing?

He is a man of face.

Thinking of this situation, the boy couldn't help looking complicated.

Miss Xu is too insincere to invite someone to dinner.

“……”

Seeing that there was something wrong with his expression, Xu Mingyi realized the mistake later. When he was about to remedy it, he suddenly heard a startled voice in front of him: "someone threw himself into the river over there!"

"Really, I saw it with my own eyes!"

The people who had almost dispersed suddenly became restless again.

What happened these days?

It seems that one after another, people don't take a break!

"I haven't eaten a mouthful of food now!"

"Hey! Who isn't!"

Someone said so, but his legs ran to the place of the accident without hesitation.

Xu Ming measured the moment and followed up.

Although it is generally impulsive to commit suicide in a river, and it is impossible to choose any time and place, it seems strange that the other party threw himself into a river near the Yamen at this juncture.

She thought of someone.

Seeing that she was in a hurry, Wu Tsui, who had never liked to join the fun, hesitated for a moment and followed her.

Many people have been surrounded by the river.

The heavy rain only stopped last night. The river under the night was turbid and the dark tide surged compared with the calm in the past.

"Get out of the way!"

The officer who was disturbed soon rushed over.

The officers who had been busy all day and thought they could finally have a rest were also very tired at this time.

But business still needs to be done.

An officer with good water ability quickly took off his robes and soap boots, jumped into the river and swam towards the place where the water lines were rippling fiercely.

"Can anyone see who threw the river?" the chief official asked.

The people answered with all kinds of words, but people couldn't hear clearly.

Hearing this, the officer had a headache. He ordered a familiar looking man and said, "come on!"

The man holding the child spoke quickly.
