The King's Favor [Rebirth]

Chapter 27

Zhang Xian can naturally figure out things that other people can figure out.

He looked at Xie Linxi, and finally figured out where the disobedience just now was. Xie Linxi repeatedly mentioned that buying and selling maids was due to the famine, and he kept forcing him to admit that Zhang Xi bought the maids and signed a death contract.

It's just that Xie Linxi said those words in one stroke, and the other words were rude. He had a secret in his heart, so he naturally wanted to excuse Zhang Xi. The most important thing was that the more he spoke for Zhang Xi, the more Xie Linxi seemed to be bullying others by comparison.

He was thinking about scheming, but others had already made a trap, just waiting for him to drill into it.

Now that everyone is watching, with Qi Jingyuan and Xie Linxi singing together like this, his crime of deceiving the emperor cannot escape.

And if he continued to deny it, the emperor's impression of him would only get worse.

Knowing that he had been tricked, the blue veins on Zhang Xian's aggrieved forehead were exposed, but he couldn't utter a word of defense or rebuttal.The others could only look at him quietly, as if they were helpless.

"Why didn't Zhang Yushi speak?" Zhang Xian didn't say a word, but Xie Linxi got excited. He squinted his eyes and smiled lightly: "If the minister next to me made a mistake before, and Zhang Yushi quoted scriptures and eloquently, how could he deceive the emperor? , I can’t even say the words of apology. Could it be that I think that what I did, others can’t find out?”

Facing Xie Linxi's plainly sarcastic words, Zhang Xian gritted his teeth, raised his eyes and said word by word: "My lord, Commander Xie is very scheming."

"Zhang Yushi is still spitting blood at this time, really shameless." Xie Linxi said coldly: "Could it be that I let you deceive the king, and I have a ghost in my heart, and I still don't admit it when I am wronged by others. Shi, your face is thicker than a city wall."

Xie Linxi sometimes spoke very bluntly, and what he said hurt people's wounds.

As soon as he finished speaking, several officials showed discomfort on their faces, thinking that his words were too rude.

Zhang Xian knew that no matter what he said now, it was useless, and he was just bringing shame on himself to Xie Linxi.

So he knelt down to the little emperor with a painful face and said: "Your Majesty, I have nothing to say. It's just that Zhang Xi has nothing to do with this matter. He is so innocent. Commander Xie took great pains to arrest him..." Said At this point, he deliberately paused, leaving people with unlimited imagination, and then continued: "Zhang Xi was arrested without fault, and his only fault was the master of my minister. I don't want to implicate innocent people, and I hope the emperor will take charge of Zhang Xi." Hi let it go."

"Did Zhang Yushi take the wrong medicine today? Why does he always say something that people don't understand?" Xie Linxi's face was warm, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said in confusion: "It was like this from the beginning, and no one saw me before. You tortured your innocent master to extract a confession, and now you keep saying that I arrested the wrong person. How did Zhang Yushi know that I arrested the wrong person? Could it be that in Zhang Yushi’s heart, he felt that the wrong person was arrested, that is the wrong arrest? Now, the fact is right in front of your eyes, is it wrong to grasp it?"

"Linxi." Qi Jingyuan said with some helplessness: "When can you change your straight-talking problem? If you can be like Zhang Yushi and try your best to evade when you speak, you won't be misunderstood."

Facing his sarcasm, Xie Linxi hurriedly said: "My lord taught me a lesson, but it's a pity that I can't imitate Zhang Yushi with his upright faults."

"Don't always say that you are ignorant, what you said just now is very good." Qi Jingyuan said sincerely.

Xie Linxi said: "Thank you, my lord, for your praise."

As they went back and forth, they could hear the other people's faces expressionless, and their hearts were full of cursing words, but because of their identities, they couldn't reveal it, so they could only listen in their hearts.

The most angry one was Zhang Xian, who was so angry and bloody that he almost fainted.

He still wanted to say something, but Xie Linxi no longer planned to give him a chance.

Xie Linxi said loudly: "Your Majesty, my lord, I originally arrested Zhang Xi because of the sale of the deed of death and living, but I didn't expect that it would involve Zhang Yushi's deception. There is also a woman from Zhangjia Village, Lin Shi, who sued Zhang Yu Shi, buy a young girl as a concubine."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Xian stood up excitedly and said, "You are talking nonsense."

"Zhang Yushi, this person complained and someone investigated the case. The case has not been investigated yet, how do you know that this officer is talking nonsense?" Xie Linxi said coldly: "The Lin family walked from Zhangjia Village to the capital. I am suing you, I am afraid you would not have thought of it. Whether the person your master Zhang Xi bought is a maidservant for yourself or for you, you know very well."

Zhang Xian didn't expect that Xie Linxi would know this. At this moment, his mind was in a mess. He only felt that he was thrown on the street naked, and his colleagues' eyes were full of disbelief and contempt.

Some things have been despised since ancient times.If he married a wife, he would marry a wife, and if he hired a concubine, he would hire a concubine. Everything he did was upright, but no one liked what he did.

Zhang Xian finally fully understood Xie Linxi's sinister intentions.

Whether it is a dead contract or a deception, he is paralyzing himself.

Waiting for his reputation to fade, and then throwing this matter out will only arouse everyone's indifference and disdain for him.

If it was at the beginning, he could still defend himself a little bit, now...

Now he can't admit it, or his life will be ruined.

The only thing Zhang Xian could grasp now was that Xie Linxi had no evidence, so he said, "Commander Xie, I don't know why you slandered me. Didn't your Heavenly Prison Secretary say that you should pay attention to evidence in everything? I don't believe Zhang either. Xi would do that, anyway, you better show evidence before you speak."

"If you are in the Heavenly Prison Division, there is certainly evidence." Xie Linxi said coldly, "Couldn't Zhang Yushi want to say that he didn't know that this matter was all done by Zhang Xi, right? Zhang Xi bought a young girl to be a maid You don't have to think about it too much. After buying so much, what did Mr. Zhang think in his heart? If you don't know about it, it's okay, you just know, it's still from your Zhangjia Village, and you have the same clan relatives. Zhang Yushi said at night Don't be afraid to fall asleep."

Zhang Xian's face was pale.

Qi Jingyuan also said coldly at this time: "It's simply absurd. If this matter is true, it would be a big joke in the world. Wouldn't the family with a daughter in the capital have to worry about it every day?"

Originally because of Zhang Xian's tough words, the official wanted to say something, but when he heard this, he immediately fell silent.

These officials, whose family doesn't have a daughter, if they meet a beast like Zhang Xian, the reputation of their entire family will be lost.Also, it's disgusting to think about it.

Xie Linxi said: "Mr. Lin is now in Xie's house. She is old, but she is willing to sue the imperial court. She is not afraid of punishment, but she is afraid that the people will not be treated fairly if she sues the officials."

"Then she will be exempted from the penalty of suing the imperial court." Qi Jingyuan said with a cold face: "Send her to the palace and state the case."

Suing the imperial court is subject to punishment, and only after passing the punishment will the common people have the opportunity to go to the main hall and go to the emperor to sue the imperial court.

Xie Linxi said yes, and then went back to Xie's mansion personally to ask Cheng Shuai to bring the old woman into the hall, while he brought out Zhang Xi's person hidden in the yard.

The old woman's granddaughter is called Zhang Xiaohua. She is still young, she is wearing silk, and her eyes are full of fear.

Xie Linxi just said to Zhang Xiaohua, your grandmother is here to pick you up.

When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she burst into tears.

The biggest official that the old lady Lin has ever seen in her life is the village head of her Zhangjia Village, and the biggest official she has ever heard of is Yushi.

Kneeling in the main hall, she saw the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, Qi Jingyuan sitting at the head of all the officials, and the little emperor sitting on the dragon chair. She was trembling all over and couldn't speak a word.

Later, Xie Linxi showed up with Zhang Xiaohua, she hugged Zhang Xiaohua and howled, Zhang Xiaohua also hugged her and cried.

In the end, the old woman grabbed the corner of Xie Linxi's clothes and told the inside story of her finding Zhang Xiaohua.

She spoke the local dialect, her voice was dry and hoarse, and sometimes the courtiers who read sage books from childhood could not understand the words she said.

But everyone understood the last sentence, and she murmured: "Obviously what was said at the time was a deed of living, and the village chief also said it was a deed of living, so why is it a deed of death? Mr. Zhang, why did you do this, your little one?" When I was here, I ate and drank water at my house. How could you treat Xiao Hua like this, she is still a child."

Facing the questioning of the old woman with a vicissitudes of life, Zhang Xian wanted to say something, but in the end he only said one thing and he didn't know.

Xie Linxi looked at Zhang Xiaohua, and suddenly smiled like that, the good-looking people really laughed, it was the best scenery.

The defense in Zhang Xiaohua's eyes was slightly loose, Xie Linxi said: "You are Zhang Xiaohua, what do you do every day after you are bought?"

Zhang Xiaohua lowered her head, thinking to herself, what will she do every day after being bought back.

She is being served and raised every day, saying that they want to raise her white and clean. She envies and fears such a life.

There are some bigger than her, and some smaller than her.

Until one day, an older sister in the yard was sold. She heard someone say that the adults didn't like her because she was too old, so she had to sell it.

Children from poor families have long been in charge of the family, and Zhang Xiaohua vaguely understands something.

She still remembered the cold eyes of that sister when she was taken away.

After Zhang Xiaohua finished speaking, the hall was silent.

Xie Linxi pursed her lips and said happily: "Zhang Yushi's family style is really good. This master bought back the maid, and he lived a more comfortable life than the master. Why did Zhang Yushi hide such a thing? If you tell it, who wouldn't Zanzhang Yushi is the blue sky, and those who can't survive a little bit, I'm afraid they want to send them to Zhang Yushi's house."

Zhang Xian's face turned blue and red.

Qi Jingyuan said: "Since Zhang Yushi said that everything has nothing to do with him, Zhang Xi has made his own decision, then look into this Zhang Xi carefully, this king wants to see how he, a little master, has such extraordinary abilities gone."

When Zhang Xian heard this, he collapsed on the ground.

What he did was very secretive, not many people knew about it, and no one would investigate it unless he was caught.

But at the same time, as long as you want to check, you can easily find it.

He is aware of Xie Linxi's tricks, once the punishment is imposed, Zhang Xi will confess in a short time.

Looking at his posture, everyone knew that he was not innocent.

Qi Jingyuan flicked the dust that was not on his sleeves, and he snorted coldly: "It is known as the blue sky anyway, and it is really dirty to people's ears to do dirty things. Before the matter was found out, Zhang Yushi stayed in the Don't go out at home."

The implication is that Zhang Xian will be under house arrest.

The little emperor sat on the dragon chair and watched this farce. He couldn't believe that Zhang Xian would do such a thing.

But with the facts in front of him, he just felt that he didn't want to look at Zhang Xian again, so he asked Xie Linxi to investigate the matter carefully, and then let him retreat.

The old woman didn't know how it all happened, but she knew that her granddaughter was found.

She grabbed Zhang Xiaohua and kowtowed to Xie Linxi.

The eyelids of the others cramped as they watched the scene. No one thought that Xie Linxi, whose hands were stained with countless blood, would be appreciated by the common people one day.

Qi Jingyuan knew that Xie Linxi was not good at handling such things, so he sent someone to send the old lady and Zhang Xiaohua back to Xie's house first, while he took Xie Linxi back to Jinghua Palace.

As soon as the door of Jinghua Palace was closed by Jin Yi, Qi Jingyuan hugged Xie Linxi's waist and complained vaguely: "You haven't been in the palace much these days, and you've been busy with these things? You don't want me?"

Xie Linxi hugged him back and said with a smile: "Naturally, it's just that since we met, we must find out the truth of the matter."

Qi Jingyuan said in a softer voice, "Aren't you afraid of traps inside? If the old lady is a fake and someone is deliberately trying to frame you, then you will be passive in the court today?"

Xie Linxi closed his eyes, and he said: "At first I was suspicious, but after I found Zhang Xi and saw that there was really someone hiding in him, I no longer doubted it. What's more, how could I doubt the prince."

Qi Jingyuan's body froze, and he wanted to take a step back. Xie Linxi stretched out his hand and clasped him tightly in his arms. He continued to say calmly: "My lord mentioned before that Zhang Yushi has something to do. Besides, an illiterate person can't do anything." Old lady who doesn't understand, how could she just happen to hear about the backyard of Zhang's family without anyone deliberately pointing it out? Take a step back and say, the village chief of Zhang's village is hiding it from her, so how could anyone dare to speak up easily? There was a businessman who sent her to the capital, how could he meet such a kind person by chance. It can be seen that someone is guiding her to the capital step by step, and she is Zhang Xian's reminder."

That's why things went so smoothly, Qi Jingyuan who knew everything in the court.

No matter what he said, he would point the arrow at Zhang Xian.

Qi Jingyuan laughed dryly twice and whispered: "Then why do you think it was done by me?"

"Isn't it?" Xie Linxi asked back: "It's a credit to hand over Zhang Xian's handle completely. What's more, apart from the prince, who else in this world would think that I am a good person so much."

Qi Jingyuan pursed his lips, and after a long time he said, "Xie Linxi, do you have any questions?"

"No." Xie Linxi said.

Qi Jingyuan raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were full of fire, and he said: "Don't you want to know how I know how Zhang Xian did these things? Are you not afraid that I am using you to do all this?"

"If the prince wants to say something, he will tell me directly. If the prince doesn't want to say it, I will naturally not force the prince." Xie Linxi continued hoarsely with a calm tone: "As for the use, if the prince uses the minister in this way, then the humble minister can't ask for it."

Having said that, his hands tightened slightly again, and the two of them were so close that they could hear each other's heartbeat and the sound of their breathing becoming more and more intense.

He and Qi Jingyuan looked at each other with seriousness and smiles in their eyes.

A trace of restraint flashed across Qi Jingyuan's face, then he smiled, and murmured Wushuang in a low voice.

After shouting, he stepped forward slightly, and their breaths merged together.

Xie Linxi hugged his waist, thinking that this would be good.
