Rebirth of the Golden Bastard
Chapter 42
Except for the prince and important ministers in this Yilan, Xia Cangqiao was the only one who didn't have to be pushed down or even carried all the way in when she went to the yamen.
Cang Qiao put his arms around Xia Yunqing's neck and looked around. It was his first time entering the yamen. The yamen guards lined up on both sides looked at him with some embarrassment. He turned his head and whispered in Xia Yunqing's ear, "When are you going to let me down?"
Xia Yunqing looked at him, and finally put him down in the middle of the hall.Fang Xing came in with the yamen servant behind him, his face was crying like a big tabby cat, the lord of the government office in the hall had been waiting for a long time, it is not a good sign that this kind of thing suddenly happened near the scientific examination, if he can't handle it well, it is a bad sign Looking at Cang Qiao at this moment, seeing Cang Qiao's crime of losing Wusha, felt a throbbing pain in his heart.How could it be such a coincidence to get involved with this troublemaker again?
"Cough cough." The supervisor next to him stared stupidly, and had no choice but to remind, "My lord, you have been promoted."
"Ah, yes, that's right." The official lord hurriedly slapped the gavel, "Ascension!"
There were threatening sounds all around, Cang Qiao was startled, Xia Yunqing patted him on the back reassuringly.Fang Xing fell to his knees and said, "Master Qingtian! I want to sue Xia Cangqiao, the eldest son of Xia, for murder!"
The official was also taken aback by Fang Xing: he said to himself who is this, he thinks things are not troublesome enough!
He looked at Xia Cangqiao, "Uh...Master Xia, what's going on?"
Xia Cangqiao answered honestly, "I just buy tofu."
"En." Master Guan listened carefully and nodded seriously.
But after waiting for a long time without waiting for the second half of the sentence, the official asked cautiously: "And then?"
"No more." Cang Qiao blinked.
The master Bo stopped the pen in his hand and looked up at him, "Young Master Xia, what you mean is that you just went to buy tofu and don't know anything else?"
Cang Qiao gave a thumbs up, "Smart!"
The boss looked back at the sweaty official and shook his head secretly, "Let's go through a normal interrogation first, it's troublesome to hold on to this matter."
The official nodded quickly, and said: "You, what's your name? Tell me in detail what happened!" He was referring to Fang Xing, and Fang Xing hurriedly said: "Cao Min Fang Xing, Liuyang people! Three days ahead Beijing participated in the scientific examination, and met like-minded people at the inn. Today, when I went out, I met the young master of the Xia family, Cao Min... Cao Min has always been disliked by this kind of bullying person, and his attitude towards him is not very respectful, but he doesn't want to leave. No matter how far away, something will happen!" Fang Xing was a little emotional, and he said with certainty: "It must be someone he sent! Master Qingtian, you must be the master for the people!"
The official master listened to him talking about Master Qingtian, his forehead twitched in pain.He waved his hand and said, "Can you see the perpetrator?"
"Three men in black!" Fang Xingdao: "With their faces covered, Yilan capital is actually committing crimes in broad daylight. If my emperor finds out, he will never spare these people!"
Fang Xing moved out of Renhuang suddenly, and the official was also shocked.But when you think about it carefully, it makes sense.Cang Qiao has always had a bad reputation among the common people, and everyone knows each other well, but if things go too far... if the emperor finds out about the injustice, it will be difficult for him to be an official again.But... what if he misjudged?
The master Bo also asked Fang Xing: "How can you settle the case based on your speculation? Is there any evidence?"
Fang Xing said angrily, "Why do you only ask me? Xia Cangqiao is here too! Could it be that the rumor that the royal family protected Xia Cangqiao from repeated vicious crimes is true? If we do this, why should we take part in the scientific examination? Why officer?!"
"This, this, this..." The official was stunned for a moment. Once the news got out, all the Wen students rushing for the exam would be in the capital!What should we do if we make a fuss?
He looked at Xia Cangqiao blankly, and after a long pause, he tapped on the gavel lightly, "Xia... Cangqiao! What evidence do you have to prove that you didn't kill those people?"
Cang Qiao said slowly: "There is no evidence, but there are witnesses."
The official said hurriedly, "Who?"
"My younger brother." He pointed at Xia Yunqing next to him, "I have been with him all the time, and have never sent anyone to kill anyone."
Xia Yunqing's character is obviously much better. Just as the director nodded, Fang Xing said: "Who can prove that Xia Yunqing is not with him? The relationship between the two brothers is very good!"
The people who watched the fun outside were also whispering. Recently, Xia Yunqing and Cang Qiao are often together, and many people have seen the two of them have very intimate behavior. Could it be that Xia Yunqing has really become an accomplice?
Xia Yunqing's face remained unchanged, but he just said: "I swear by the Lion of Justice of General Ying, my brother never did this."
Everyone in the audience was in an uproar. Everyone knew that the Lions of Justice were the elite troops of General Ying. They defended their home and country and were trapped in the battlefield several times but returned to the court with hope. They are the heroes of the people and the lions of Yilan.As soon as these words came out, many people turned to Xia Yunqing's side.
Fang Xing gritted his teeth, "How did Second Young Master Xia know that Xia Cangqiao didn't do anything behind your back? Maybe you were just deceived!"
He looked at the elders in the hall and said: "I heard that Xia Cangqiao was seriously injured and lost his memory a few months ago. Maybe it's just a trick of his! On the surface, he is a new man, but behind his back, he is doing unknown things!"
He said and looked back at the people outside, "You should also know that the city guards are driving homeless people out of the city recently, right? Why does the Emperor Renci do such a thing?"
Everyone was at a loss again, and someone asked loudly: "You, an outsider, know it again?"
Fang Xingdao: "There are some things that the authorities are obsessed with! People in the capital of Yilan have been kept in the dark. If you go out of the city, you will know that many things are not secrets! At least the news I heard is that it is Xia Cang who drove the homeless Joe suggested it!"
Many people wondered: "Why?"
"The reason is very simple." Fang Xing looked at Xia Cangqiao, word by word, "There was a case where a homeless man was killed before, and many people suspected Xia Cangqiao who was there at the time, and later heard that Xia Cangqiao gave alms to homeless people. Han Yinliang was rejected and lost face. He wants to drive out all the homeless people in Yilan to avenge himself!"
The rumors in the market are always exaggerated and exaggerated.Although Cang Qiao knew it, she didn't know that once the news spread, it would become another sharp weapon and reflect back.People say that if you want people not to know, you have to do nothing yourself.However, when the unfounded things are mixed with some original things, the truth becomes precarious.
He looked at Fang Xing's immature face, but he couldn't see the corresponding immature temperament at all, he only saw a taste of scheming.He finally understood why he felt uncomfortable the first time he saw him. It turns out that the sixth sense is not exclusive to women, men also have it.
This man did it on purpose.He was suddenly so sure.From buying calligraphy and painting, from the moment the two met, I fell into a trap.
Seeing that Cang Qiao had not spoken, Xia Yunqing turned to look at him.Seeing Cang Qiao staring straight at Fang Xing, the cold light flashed in his eyes for a moment, which made his heart skip a beat.
His eldest brother is another person, for some reason this thought suddenly spread wildly in his heart.Ever since he discovered his unusual feelings for Cang Qiao, he had always hoped that his elder brother was someone else, someone who had nothing to do with him.Only in this way can his crazy love come true, but now he is sure that he is not hallucinating, but really feeling.
Xia Cangqiao, not the previous Xia Cangqiao.If you look carefully, from the beginning to the end, there is nothing similar to the former big brother.Even the appearance seems to change.
Xia Yunqing turned her eyes away, being overwhelmed by her own thoughts.A strange atmosphere fell into the lobby, and Gu Xiao's voice suddenly came from outside the crowd of onlookers.
"Give way! You make way!" Gu Xiao struggled to squeeze in. The crowd turned to look at him, and when they recognized him as Xia Cangqiao's little follower, a voice came from the other side of the street, "The Ninth Prince is here!"
The crowd moved out of the way, watching excitedly and curiously.Ninth Prince Sikong Shen?Why did he come?What is going on here?
Cang Qiao raised his eyes and saw the golden sedan chair outside stopped, Sikong Shen lifted his robe from the sedan chair and stepped down to the ground, and Nan Liu was accompanying him with a sword in his hand. The appearance of the two made the whole street seem to fall into a solemn atmosphere middle.
When Sikong Chen walked to the gate of the government office, the people inside had already knelt down on the ground.Gu Xiao looked at Sikong Shen in a daze, and when the man passed by him without looking sideways, Gu Xiao suddenly felt a little lost in his heart.
"All blessings to the Ninth Prince!" the official said loudly.
Sikong said in a deep voice, "Get up, everyone." Then he looked at Cang Qiao, "I happened to pass by and heard something happened here, why can't you calm down?"
Cang Qiao smiled dryly, "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop."
Everyone was taken aback, heh!It was the first time I heard Cang Qiao say a word with such connotation.At this time, Gu Xiao also ran to Cang Qiao's side, tugged on Cang Qiao's sleeve to look at Fang Xing, and said angrily, "How did our young master offend you, why did we slander him!"
Fang Xing looked at him, and smiled coldly, "I slander? Knowing people and faces but not heart, you are the ones who were deceived."
Gu shivered pettishly, but was gently pulled by Cang Qiao.He turned his head in surprise, in his impression, the current Xia Cangqiao is a typical example of if people don't attack me, I won't attack, and if people attack me, I will attack.The young master actually endured like this?
The Ninth Prince asked the reason of the matter, and looked down at Fang Xing, "If the rumors in the market can be used as evidence in the court, what's the use of the government? Where did you read all the books?"
Fang Xing blushed and said, "Although it is a rumor in the market, part of it is true!"
"Oh?"
"It is rumored that Xia Cangqiao is related to the Hanyue Palace. The Hanyue Palace is a Jianghu sect. It must not be a good thing for Xia Cangqiao to be involved with the Jianghu sect!"
The Ninth Prince looked at Xia Yunqing, "Is there such a thing?"
Xia Yunqing was silent for a while, then nodded, "It's true, but it's not what you think."
"Look, Ninth Prince!" Fang Xingdao: "Sure enough, Xia Yunqing has been bought by his elder brother!"
Cang Qiao finally opened his mouth, "Let me remind you." He said slowly, "I don't care how you want to pour dirty water on me, but don't involve others."
He suddenly took a step forward, stretched out a finger and lifted Fang Xing's chin to force Fang Xing to look up and meet his gaze, "I advise you not to try to drag others into the water to further charge me with crimes, I don't care about anything, But there is only a little emphasis on emotion. If you step on my bottom line, let alone kill some of your scholars, I will dig out your ancestral graves for you."
Cang Qiao spoke tepidly, without any fluctuation in tone.But those words sent chills down the spine, and everyone fell silent.Sikong Shen looked Cang Qiao up and down, and said after a while, "Cang Qiao, calm down."
He looked at Fang Xing again, "There is a limit to what a scholar can say without restraint."
Fang Xing only felt pain in his jaw, and when Cang Qiao let go of himself, he took a few steps back.
"I also have witnesses and evidence." He suddenly said: "I also ask the Ninth Prince to verify it with his own eyes!"
Cang Qiao expressionless, just looked at Xia Yunqing, "You and Gu Xiao go back."
He dared to use his handsome face to guarantee that this was all aimed at him, although he didn't know what the purpose was.Before he figured out the other party's intentions, he would not put the people around him in danger.
Xia Yunqing didn't say a word, and didn't even move her footsteps.Cang Qiao narrowed her eyes, "Xia Yunqing!"
Xia Yunqing looked back at him, "No."
The two stared wide-eyed, Fang Xing had already taken out the evidence over there, and everyone was shocked when they saw it—it turned out to be an ornament with the Xia family's crest printed on it!There is only one store in the entire capital city of Yilan, Xiajia Embroidery Workshop!
Cang Qiao put his arms around Xia Yunqing's neck and looked around. It was his first time entering the yamen. The yamen guards lined up on both sides looked at him with some embarrassment. He turned his head and whispered in Xia Yunqing's ear, "When are you going to let me down?"
Xia Yunqing looked at him, and finally put him down in the middle of the hall.Fang Xing came in with the yamen servant behind him, his face was crying like a big tabby cat, the lord of the government office in the hall had been waiting for a long time, it is not a good sign that this kind of thing suddenly happened near the scientific examination, if he can't handle it well, it is a bad sign Looking at Cang Qiao at this moment, seeing Cang Qiao's crime of losing Wusha, felt a throbbing pain in his heart.How could it be such a coincidence to get involved with this troublemaker again?
"Cough cough." The supervisor next to him stared stupidly, and had no choice but to remind, "My lord, you have been promoted."
"Ah, yes, that's right." The official lord hurriedly slapped the gavel, "Ascension!"
There were threatening sounds all around, Cang Qiao was startled, Xia Yunqing patted him on the back reassuringly.Fang Xing fell to his knees and said, "Master Qingtian! I want to sue Xia Cangqiao, the eldest son of Xia, for murder!"
