"You said you guys, why are you talking about this? How did you talk about that, Mr. Zhifu?"
"Isn't this just following the words? He can be regarded as a relative of the emperor, and his status is noble, so what can he do with a small magistrate? Do you think the emperor can look towards him?"
"Anyway, Mr. Song can't handle this matter well. It's clear that he is bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. I think Shangguantai will be released in a few days, and when we don't pay attention, he will be released."
"I think it's almost the same. This has been the protection of officials and officials since ancient times. Maybe this is a play they put on to establish prestige for Master Song."
"Stop it, stop it, come here."
After Song Wuya heard these words, he felt extremely uncomfortable.He is above the court, and it's okay to be squeezed out by all the officials.Now I want to do something, but I was misunderstood by the people because of what happened in the morning court today.
However, he also knew very well in his heart that the things that just happened in the court could spread so quickly, there must be someone behind the scenes.
Although this kind of thing made Song Wuya very wronged, it also followed his original intention.Baiguan rejected him so much, obviously wishing that he would get out of the capital as soon as possible.
Returning to the court with the corpse, Shangguan Tai, who was still sweeping the street, was summoned to the court immediately.
"Shangguantai, now that the body has been found, what else do you have to say?"
The gavel fell heavily, and Song Wuya shouted angrily.
It seems that today's unhappiness is all vented here.
Shangguantai looked at the stinking corpse beside him, and frowned: "Don't frame me! Where did you dig up such a corpse? Just say that I killed him!"
"After Li Congshu's identification, this is his daughter who was snatched by you. Now the body is buried outside the city, and judging from the time of death, it should be more than a month. And you snatched Li Congshu's daughter for two months, During this period, it can be said that no one is alive but no one is dead. If you suspect that this body was randomly found by the government, then you should hand over his daughter, so that it is better for the government to confront it."
Song Wuya said angrily, facing such a fact, Shangguantai still wanted to quibble.
"His daughter was indeed snatched by me, but his daughter didn't survive, and he was forced to die, so I let her go home. As for where she went, how do I know? Could it be that he met robbers outside or What, after being killed, the body is buried elsewhere. Does this have anything to do with me?"
Shangguantai was still quibbling.
"You bastard, I'll fight you! Give me back my daughter!"
Seeing that Shangguantai refused to admit this matter, Li Congshu couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed towards Shangguantai with a loud cry.
The imperial guard hurried forward and pulled Li Congshu away, fearing that something might happen to him in a hurry.
"You have never seen the body, how do you know that the body was buried and not thrown into the river?"
"I... I guessed it!"
Being questioned by Song Wuya like this, Shangguan Tai panicked for a while, and hurriedly argued.
"At this time of year, spring has not yet begun, and it is the time when the sky is freezing. If someone throws the corpse, how can he spend so much time digging and breaking the ground instead of throwing the corpse in the river and making a simple end?" Song Song Wuya asked coldly again.
"How do I know this? I never threw the corpse away!" Shangguan Tai knew that he had lost his composure just now, so he pretended not to know at this time, trying to get away with it.
Song Wuya snorted coldly: "Hmph! If all the murderers in the world use your tone to sophistry, is it true that everyone in the world can kill at will? I will put the words here for you today, If you hand over his daughter, it's fine, if you can't hand it over to someone else, the government will immediately sentence you to death! Detain it!"
Song Wuya told Shangguantai forcefully that his sophistry was useless in this case.
Shouting for injustice, Shangguantai was forcibly taken down.
Looking at Li Congshu who was about to faint from crying, Song Wuya sighed and said, "People cannot be resurrected after death, so please mourn!"
"Thank you, my lord, for making decisions for my little girl. If there were no lord, my little girl's death would have been in vain!" Li Congshu kowtowed to Song Wuya gratefully.
After leaving the hall, Song Wuya felt very worried.
"Wu Ya, you didn't listen to a single word I said to you earlier. Why are you still sour?" Situ Wen said angrily seeing Song Wuya like this.
Song Wuya sighed heavily and said: "Hey! I'm melancholy, this person's life is too fragile. A good person will die if he says he dies. Where do you think there are so many wicked people in this world? ? When will there be an enlightened society, when no one commits crimes, the world will be peaceful!"
"Wu Ya, why are you worrying about this?" After hearing this, Situ Wen said angrily, "People are born unequal, and human nature has all kinds of comparisons. I'm afraid there will be no such time as you said. Don't It’s human, isn’t it the same with animals? Didn’t you see it in Yingtian Mansion last time? That dog and the dog are still biting together!”
"Wen'er, what you said is the truth!" Situ Wen said this, but Song Wuya couldn't help laughing.
Her analogy is really appropriate.It is inevitable that people are born with inequality and bullying. After all, this is the basic nature of all things in the world.If I want to prevent all this from happening again, I am afraid that I will turn people into brainless elm bumps.
"I'm afraid that I, the magistrate, will come to an end soon." After Song Wuya finished speaking just now, he paused for a while before continuing.
Situ Wen didn't take it seriously and said, "Isn't that just right? You can go after Wuliangjiao and Guanshan Restaurant again."
"I'm afraid I won't end well this time!" Song Wuya shook his head and sighed, "Just now a woman's corpse was found outside the city. When I came back from the outside, the people pointed at me, but there was nothing good to say. Originally, it was erected in the hearts of the people. His image, now because of that Duke Ding, can be completely ruined."
"It turns out to be like this!" Situ Wen felt that she had said something wrong, and hurriedly said: "Then don't be discouraged! As the saying goes, the law of heaven is clear and retribution is not good. You are worthy of your own conscience and your official uniform That's it. Good and evil will eventually be rewarded, and the way of heaven is reincarnation. The people will be able to see clearly whether it is good or bad sooner or later."
"It's good that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and the way of heaven is reincarnation. As a husband, I can only wait patiently for God to give me ordinary!" Song Wuya said with a smile.
"That's right! God has eyes, isn't there such a saying in Zuo Zhuan? If you do too much unrighteousness, you will die yourself, and you will be treated by your aunt." Seeing that Song Wuya finally smiled, Situ Wen added another sentence.
Song Wuya nodded: "Okay, then I'll just wait for that day to come soon."
"Don't take these things to heart. Since you want to be a good official, you can only care about the people." Situ Wen played an important role today, and a few words changed Song Wuya's decadence.
"Wen'er, you really are well-educated! What you said just now is enough to show that you have read a lot." Song Wuya stopped thinking about what happened just now, and praised Situ Wen with a smile.
Situ Wen is also not humble at all: "That's natural. I started learning calligraphy at the age of four, and I was able to read books at the age of five. I stay at home on weekdays, and my father won't let me go anywhere, and I don't need to do other things." Things, can’t you just read books? Fortunately, reading more books is also useful, otherwise how can I say these words today to comfort you? "
"That's right." Song Wuya nodded with a smile, then murmured: "Now that I have been criticized by the people, I don't know if I can restore my image in the hearts of the people because of Shangguantai's case!"
"It's definitely possible!" Situ Wen said with certainty: "Think about it, what else in this world would make the common people happier than killing princes and nobles?"
"That's right, I hope the previous matter can be settled!" Song Wuya said with emotion.
He agrees with Situ Wen's words. Everyone has the mentality of hating the rich and hating officials since ancient times.The common people living at the bottom have been exploited and oppressed by these people, so naturally they don't have any good thoughts about them, wishing that they would all die early.
As a result, Song Wuya felt much happier in his heart.
The body has been found, even if Shangguan Tai denies it, it is beyond his control.Now just waiting for Song Wuya's order, Shangguantai can wait for execution.
However, Song Wuya felt that this matter might not be so easy to solve.
Shangguan Feihong presumably would not just watch his son be executed like this.
Song Wuya had inquired before that although this Shangguan Feihong was more than just Shangguan Tai's son, he was the most precious.His eldest son went to the battlefield and died on the battlefield while fighting the Mongols.
Now, Shangguan Feihong still has a daughter under his knees, if Shangguan Tai is killed, then he will really be alone.
Therefore, Song Wuya guessed that this Shangguan Feihong would definitely come to him, and must find a way to keep Shangguantai.
Even if he came, Song Wuya would naturally not let Shangguantai live.But this disturbance by Shangguan Feihong might cause some troubles.If the matter gets worse, Song Wuya may not be able to end it well.
Fortunately, the emperor didn't want to see Shangguan Feihong, and Shangguan Feihong didn't have the support of a big tree like Ding Guogong behind him.He was with Zhu Yuanlong, and Song Wuya was worried that Zhu Yuanlong and Guanshan Restaurant would play tricks behind his back.
