"Brother Han, you lied to me again and said you didn't offend the Ministry of Revenue? I heard it all."

Han Yi was blocked by Liu E as soon as he arrived at the back door of Fengfei Tower.

When Han Yi saw Liu E's resentful expression, she seemed to have joined her and didn't pay. She rolled her eyes and said, "Sister Liu, you have learned bad things and actually eavesdropped on our conversation."

Liu E was a little embarrassed and said quibblingly, "This Feng Feilou is my home, how can I say it is an eavesdropping in my own home!" She said, "Don't ask Gu Zuo to talk about him, what's going on?"

Han Yi knew that if she didn't tell her, she might climb onto her bed in the middle of the night to torture her. There was no problem. She could just close her eyes and make a decision. The problem was that Xiao Wuyi would not burn Feng Feilou, so she said, "It's really nothing, it's just that I have different political views from the Minister of Revenue, so I argued a few words in the court."

When Liu E heard this, her chest hurt, "Oh, I said, Brother Han, you are only a 18th rank small official, why do you have different political views from the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?"

This sounds strange and insulting! Han Yi immediately said, "Hey, hey, I said Sister Liu, what do you mean? What's the eighth rank? Can't you speak? If that's the case, the prime minister will go to court alone every day."

Liu E said bitterly: "But you were just officially appointed that day, and you ended up having an argument with the important officials in the court. Do you think this is right? Is this what a smart person does?"

Han Yi said: "What do you think should be?"

Liu E said: "Whatever they say, you just listen."

Han Yi nodded and said, "Okay, then let's close North Lane."

This sentence made Liu E unable to even make a fool of herself. After a while, she said, "I didn't say you were wrong. I just advised you to listen, but I didn't ask you to do it. And I was just worried about your career."

Han Yi said angrily: "If it weren't for this, you think I would have told you so much."

Liu E smiled embarrassedly and said softly: "But you have a grudge with the Ministry of Revenue. Will the Ministry of Revenue let us go?"

Han Yi smiled and said, "It's not so exaggerating. In fact, it's just arguing about whether there are violations in Beixiang. But later I knew it with emotion and reason. Finally convinced them. Although there were some disputes in the process, the result was convinced by everyone. Otherwise, I could still be like a person who is fine now. Also, do you see if the people from the Ministry of Revenue come to trouble us? What does this mean? It means nothing."

Just then, a servant suddenly walked in and said, "Brother Xiaoyi, someone is here in the government office."

"What?"

Han Yi was shocked.

Liu E couldn't help but look at Han Yi immediately, as if she was saying, Look, isn't the official office coming? You are obviously pretending to be fine!

Damn! It won’t be good or bad. It’s bad. Han Yi was a little guilty when Liu E saw it and asked the servant: “Which official’s person?”

"He said he was sent by the magistrate Xue."

"Mr. Xue?"

Han Yi was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "It must have caught those scammers."

Liu E was stunned at first and said, "You mean?"

Han Yi nodded and said, "It is the liars who have implicated you in the government office for a day."

Liu E was immediately overjoyed, constantly pounding her left palm with her right fist, and kept muttering, "Okay, okay, God is really open-minded, and finally caught these liars."

Although it took many days, Liu E was always very concerned about this because she suffered an injustice at that time. Although she was released soon, she did not suffer much. But she always felt a sense of anger in her heart.

Han Yi glanced at her, shook her head with a smile, and then went out.

He was right. This morning, the government arrested those scammers who sold looms under the banner of Fengfeilou and defrauded the people of money in a township near Wugong County.

And the magistrate of Jing County Xue Kai asked Han Yi to go tomorrow. After all, this matter has a lot to do with Feng Feilou. However, the scammers are still on the way to escort, and it is estimated that they will not be able to arrive this afternoon. Therefore, Xue Kai did not ask Han Yi to go immediately.

The next morning, Han Yi rushed to the county government early. Before leaving, he was repeatedly instructed by Liu E to persuade Xue Kai to punish those liars, and in front of Han Yi, he humiliated and cursed liars in various ways, which made Han Yi, the big liar, feel a chill on his back, and thought to himself that it is not easy for a liar!

Come to the county government office.

Compared to the first time, Xue Kai was much more enthusiastic. He went out to greet him in person and smiled: "I'm sorry to bother Chen Chen to come here in person!"

This gratitude is necessary. If Han Yi had wanted to make trouble at that time, or if he had to go to the emperor, Xue Kai would have a headache. However, Han Yi not only did not make trouble, but was willing to suffer the loss and help him catch these liars. How broad is this to achieve this? This also made Xue Kai admire Han Yi. It is really not easy to have this mind at a young age!

Han Yi bowed and smiled and said, "I dare not, I dare not. County Magistrate Xue is really serious. Han Yi is really ashamed of it. This is my responsibility for both public and private."

The two of them exchanged greetings in front of the door for a moment, and Xue Kai invited Han Yi to sit in the hall.

Xue Kai took a sip of light tea, then placed the teacup on the table, and smiled and said, "The Imperial Master Han is really a magical idea, which is admirable. I'm afraid those liars still don't know. It turns out that they have been deceived."

Is there any culture? Is this a fraud? Han Yi said embarrassedly: "Mr. Xue County, your words immediately lowered us to the same level as them."

Xue Kai was stunned for a moment, then said, "Sorry, sorry, it was Xue who made a mistake. This should be said to be a strategy, right, right, right, strategy, they are a liar." But I thought it was you, what!

Han Yi didn't dare to talk about it anymore. After all, he was in the case and asked: "Did those scammers confess?"

Xue Kai nodded and said, "A total of four were arrested, all of them have been confessed, and they have confessed."

Han Yi said oh, and said in surprise: "So refreshing?"

Xue Kai glanced at him and said, "Did Censor Han think I abused lynching and forced confession?"

"No, of course not."

Han Yi said: "I have no intention. I originally thought they would argue, after all, they are not honest people."

Xue Kai hurriedly said, "You're not saying that. They caused such a big trouble for me. When I saw them yesterday, I hated them to the core. If they dared to make a false statement, I would definitely punish them. But as soon as they arrived at the county government, I just asked a question. They knelt on the ground and asked for forgiveness, all of them were recruited, and expressed their willingness to accept any punishment."

"ah?"

Han Yi blinked, it sounded a bit like a bit like a familiar one! Suddenly I remembered that he had used this trick to Yang Feixue before. He could only smile bitterly in his heart, but he was a colleague. He tentatively said: They are not evil people, can they have a hidden secret?

"You're right." Xue Kai said: "It turns out that they were from Wuzhou, Jiangnan. Because of the rebellion of Chen Shuozhen, their wives and relatives all died in this chaos. They escaped by chance and lived a displaced life from then on. Later, they came to Chang'an and wanted to make a living in Chang'an. However, they failed to do so and had little money left, so they chose to take risks."

Speaking later, his tone actually had a hint of pity.

Chen Shuozhen?

When Han Yi heard this name, he couldn't help but think of the day when he fought with Chen Shuozhen in the river and the last roar full of despair, and his expression seemed a little sad.

Seeing that Han Yi was silent, Xue Kai felt curious, so he shouted, "Civil Han?"

Han Yi was stunned and hurriedly said, "Sorry. Sorry." After a pause, he said, "I didn't expect them to be so sad. I really smelled sad and the listener burst into tears!"

Xue Kai sighed and said, "I think so too. They are helpless, not what they want."

It seems that you have been talking to them again. Han Yi glanced at Xue Kai and said, "I wonder what County Magistrate Xue plans to deal with them?"

Xue Kai said: "I just can't make up my mind, so I want to ask you."

Han Yi said in panic: "Mr. Xue County is so serious. Although I am the censor, this matter also involves me. I can only help Magistrate Xue solve the case as a commoner, but I have no right to manage this matter."

"I know this."

Xue Kai smiled and said, "Actually, since Zhenguan, our dynasty has always advocated cautious punishment and less punishment. I think they are not evil people and are willing to correct their mistakes. I want to give them a chance to escort them to Wuzhou, just as a worthy wife. However, this matter is related to your Fengfeilou's reputation, and you have paid off your debts for them. If you do this, it will be unfair to you. Moreover, you have made great contributions to this case, so I want to focus on your opinion."

These words made Han Yi look at Xue Kai with admiration, which clearly showed that Xue Kai wanted to forgive these scammers, but Han Yi was the censor and involved in this case. If Han Yi refused, he would not dare to do so. If Han Yi got angry, he might not be able to protect his official hat. This is also the main reason why he called Han Yi.

In the final analysis, Han Yi had watched too many Qing Dynasty dramas, so he could not understand the thoughts of these officials in the Tang Dynasty. He thought that if he tried the prisoners, he would definitely be punished without saying a word and to serve them first. As long as he was guilty, he would be cheated to death. Oh, of course, he could be cheated without guilt. The greater the crime, the better, so as to achieve political achievements.

Little did they know that this was the legacy of Zhenguan. Because during the reign of Emperor Taizong, he advocated benevolence in the world and had several general amnesties in the world. All prisoners who reformed were forgiven. The above people did this, and the officials below naturally followed suit, which developed a trend. This is why, during the Zhenguan period, the number of people sentenced to death was only 29, which may be the least murdered in history. Of course, the repeated offenders must be killed, especially those who rebel, but they are still very kind to some people who crowed and thieves.

When Han Yi learned that Xue Kai was like this, he was very glad that he did not bring Liu E with him. If Liu E heard this, he would be furious and would be punished and punished!

Han Yi pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "Mr. Xue, if possible, I want to meet those liars."

Xue Kai was stunned and then said, "Of course this is OK, I'll take you there now."

In fact, if Han Yi was unwilling to give up, he didn't care. He just saw those liars and cooperated very much, confessed his crimes, was ashamed and guilty. The masters cried loudly and expressed their hope that the government could severely punish them. He couldn't help but feel that they really had the sincerity of repentance, and there was no resentment in his heart. When he heard about their life experience, he wanted to forgive them even more, but just said casually, so he would not fight his life to protect them.

"Thank you then."

"Thank you, this is what you deserve."

Xue Kai took Han Yi out, but as soon as he came outside, he saw someone walking in quickly and muttering a few words in Xue Kai's ear.

Xue Kai looked shocked.

Han Yi said curiously: "Mr. Xue, what's the matter?"

Xue Kai seemed a little anxious and said, "Oh, I suddenly had something urgent to do, otherwise I will ask someone to take you there."

Han Yi smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay. County Magistrate Xue asks for advice if you have something to do. I just want to go and have a look."

"That's OK."

Xue Kai immediately recruited a minor official and asked the minor official to take Han Yi to meet the liars, and he hurried to the court.

Han Yi looked at Xue Kai curiously, but didn't think much about it, and then followed the clerk to the cell.

When I came to the cell, it looked a bit similar to what was performed on TV. It was full of coldness, darkness, and an unpleasant odor. Although the Tang government has always advocated being cautious and less punishment, it was Jing County after all, so there were still many people living in the cell. "Censor Han, please come here."

The little official took Han Yi to the door of a prison cell, and saw four people tilted inside. Han Yi glanced at it. The largest was in his early forties, and the youngest was in his twenties. The other two were about thirty years old. After a closer look, he smiled slightly.

The four of them were stunned when they saw Han Yi and the little official, their eyes full of uneasiness and slight expectation.

The little clerk said, "You guys can see clearly. This is the owner of Feng Feilou and the new supervisor censor. You guys are so brave that they actually tricked them into the supervisor censor."

When the people heard this, they were so scared that they knelt down and kowtowed. In a thousand words, they really didn't have a word of begging for mercy. They just regretted, asked Han Yi for forgiveness, and expressed their willingness to be punished.

You guys are more exaggerated than me. Han Yi didn't stop them, so he let them kowtow there. After a while, he suddenly whispered to the lieutenant: "I wonder if I can say a few words to them alone."

The little official was stunned for a moment and then said, "Of course, the little man will take his leave first."

"Thank you."

After the little official left, Han Yi said to the four liars: "Okay, okay, don't blame me, just stop at the right time, and if you continue acting, you will be over."

The four of them stopped immediately, raised their heads, and looked at Han Yi in surprise.

Han Yi smiled and said, "I said you guys are really amazing. They are not confused when facing danger and are not surprised by things. They all live here and do not forget to show off their acting skills. But to be honest, your acting skills are really perfect, and even County Magistrate Xue has been hidden by you."
