The wind and the moon

Suddenly, the door was knocked.Wang Kanzhi frowned, got up from Mo Yun, shook his clothes, and asked, "Who?"

"Master, it's me." The voice of Wang Kanzhi's servant, Lu'er, came from outside the door.

Wang Kanzhi was very displeased, and asked, "What's the matter?" He went to the door and opened it.

Lu'er lowered her voice and said in a low voice, "Second Master Meng is here, waiting in the living room."

Wang Kanzhi heard that Meng Yushuang had arrived, so he had to give up, and ordered Lu'er to lead someone to guard Mo Yun, and then came to the flower hall.When the two met, they laughed first, and then exchanged pleasantries.

Meng Yushuang apologized: "It must have disturbed Brother Jian's elegant mood."

Wang Kan said in his heart: "Of course I was greatly disturbed, but he said happily, "Thanks to brother Yushuang for making it happen!" Then he wanted to bow.

Meng Yushuang hurriedly stopped him, helped him to sit up, and said, "There is only one thing that is more difficult. Only after this matter is clear, brother Jian can be fulfilled, and I can feel at ease!"

"Oh? I don't know what it is?"

"I don't know if brother Jian just wants to have fun? Or do you want to keep him by your side for a long time?"

"This... of course, the longer the better!"

"Since this is the case, brother Na Kan must understand that he is now a member of Xiyuan. If he is not allowed to confess his crimes, is not ordered to charge him, and does not give Xiyuan an explanation, I am afraid that Xiyuan may not be willing to let it go, and he will not let it go. It may not be able to serve Brother Jin for a long time."

"You mean..." Wang Kanzhi immediately understood.

Meng Yushuang smiled and said, "What should I do, I believe Brother Jian has almost figured it out. Don't disturb Brother Jian's handling of the case, my younger brother will go first!"

Seeing Wang Kanzhi's sudden departure, Mo Yun was still in shock and relaxed a little, but thought that he would definitely come back, he couldn't help but despair again, he had no choice but to put on his torn clothes, curled up in the corner of the bed, panicked, Wronged, helpless, sad...all kinds of grief came to my heart.I don't know how long it took, but Wang Kanzhi didn't come back, but two yamen servants came in, dragged him out of the room, dragged him to the back cell, and locked him in the prison.Mo Yun thought that he had been sentenced to prison, and his heart suddenly became cold, as if falling into an abyss, two lines of tears poured out.I don't know how long I have been in prison, I just feel that it is very long, like a few days and nights.What I hope and think in my heart is just the word miracle.

Finally, another yamen servant opened the cell door.Mo Yun hurriedly wiped away his tears, stood up, and let them take him to the court.In the courtroom, the magistrate Wang Jinduan sat in the middle, with a teacher taking notes at the side, and the two rows of yamen servants were very solemn, and the four black characters "Mirror Hanging High" were hung on the hall.

With a sound of "Dang", Wang Jin slapped a resounding gavel, and then asked, "Who is kneeling down?"

Knowing that he was interrogating himself, Mo Yun knelt down in front of the hall timidly and tremblingly, not daring to raise his head, and hurriedly replied: "Mo, Mo Yun." However, the voice was so soft that only he could hear it. .

"Louder!" Wang Jin raised his voice.

Mo Yun trembled suddenly, trying to amplify his voice: "Mo Yun." He could barely hear it.

"What crime did you commit?"

Mo Yun shook his head lightly, expressing his ignorance.

Wang Jin gave another gavel, which made Mo Yun tremble even more. Wang Jin said angrily, "Bold! Second Master Meng sues you for stealing his jade pendant. This jade pendant is worth ten thousand gold. Can you tell me?" Plead guilty?"

Mo Yun shook his head, knelt on the ground, and only said: "I don't know, I didn't steal it, I didn't steal the jade..." Then he cried again.

"It wasn't you who stole it. It's rare that this jade has opened its legs? It actually ran into your hands?" Wang Jin said sharply, "There are all witnesses and material evidence, and you still have to quibble, don't you want me to impose a severe punishment?"

Mo Yun was still crying: "I saw this jade as soon as I opened my eyes, but I don't know, how it is in my hand, I really don't know!"

"If you really don't cry if you don't see the coffin, come here! Give him twenty slabs first, and see if he recruits or not!" Wang Jin said sternly, and issued an order.

Two yamen servants led the order to step forward and flatten Mo Yun, followed by one of them beat the board over.Mo Yun was in pain, and immediately yelled in pain, before he gave up the blow, the next blow came again, crackling, and Mo Yun screamed, only felt that his bones were broken, his heart and lungs were shocked, even death was worse than this feeling Much better.Mo Yun has been suffering from depression since he was a child. Although he has medicine and stones to make up for it, his body is still thin. He has never been punished by Mo Ming, but now he has been punished and beaten. Mo Yun really doesn't want to survive. , but thinking that living is such a bitter crime, it would be better to go to the underworld to be with her mother.

"Are you recruiting or not?" Wang Jin asked when he saw that the board was almost done.

Even if Mo Yun wanted to confess, he no longer had the strength to answer, and spit out a lot of sundries, even the last wine and food he ate.After the [-] boards were finished, Mo Yun collapsed on the ground without making a sound, just staring at the front dimly, unable to see anything dullly.

Wang Jin asked Mo Yun again if he confessed, but Mo Yun ignored him.Wang Jin was furious, and said: "If you don't recruit again, don't blame me for serving you with severe torture." Mo Yun didn't hear what he said at all, his eyes, ears and spirit had long been lost, and the only thought in his mind was that it would be better if he died.After waiting for a while, there was still no movement from Mo Yun, so Wang Jin issued an order and said, "Come here! Serve me with great torture!"

"Yes!" Another two yamen servants were ordered to bring sticks to Mo Yun.Mo Yun didn't know it, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his fingers, and the pain pierced his heart, but instead he regained his lost consciousness. Following a scream of "Ah——", big drops of sweat rolled all over his face, and Mo Yun shook his head. Shaking his body, he lost consciousness again and passed out completely.

Seeing that he was fainted, Wang Jin asked someone to bring water to wake him up.After Mo Yun woke up, he felt pain all over his body, inside and out, like burning, like being stabbed by a knife, or like being pricked by needles.

"Are you recruiting or not?"

Mo Yun nodded, and shouted with all his strength: "I'll do it!"

"Take it over and tell him to draw a bet!" Wang Jin sneered, and then said to the master next to him.

The master complied, and brought the confession in front of Mo Yun. Mo Yun slowly stretched out his hand, only to feel that the whole hand was no longer listening to him. With great effort and pain, he finally grasped the pen, fingers connected to his heart , Mo Yun was about to pick up his pen to write, but a heart-wrenching pain caused him to throw away the pen.Slowed down, felt better, and wanted to pick up the pen again, but suddenly heard someone outside the lobby call: "My lord, King Zhongyong is here." Mo Yun no longer had the consciousness to think about who this King Zhongyong was.

Wang Jin trembled all over, thinking: He didn't go to the capital, why did he come back now?Knowing that something was wrong, but he didn't allow himself to think too much, so he hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up and welcome!" As he said that, he had already left the hall.

Meng Yuxuan didn't wait for Wang Jin to greet him, and walked in quickly, with Song Yinsheng behind him.When Mo Yun saw these two people, tears welled up in his eyes again.His body softened and he fell to the ground completely.Meng Yuxuan saw that the clothes on Mo Yun's back were torn cleanly, and the original tender skin was also torn cleanly. The cracks looked like blooming flowers, some of which were still bleeding, and he saw that his hair was disheveled. , messing around like a lunatic, still dripping the water just poured in, and saw him stretching his hands forward, but his fingers were bright red, and the traces of the clamp stick were like those of a soldering iron, and his right hand was still trembling. Meng Yuxuan couldn't care less about the Zhubi, and hurriedly bent down to examine Mo Yun's injuries carefully.

"My lord is here, I'm too far away to welcome you, I'll be damned!" Wang Jin led the crowd to kowtow and said.

Meng Yuxuan ignored him, and just asked Mo Yun softly: "Yun'er, how are you? Hold on, it's okay!"

When Mo Yun heard these words, it was as if he had grasped at straws. The grievances and disasters he had suffered during the day disappeared like ice. ..." Said, fainted again.

Brother!When Meng Yuxuan heard these two words, he was really like thunder, he was so sad and annoyed that he couldn't speak for a moment, he just wanted to hug Mo Yun tightly.

Song Yinsheng hurriedly said: "He has been punished, cousin must not touch him!"

Hearing this, Meng Yuxuan quickly put him down again, and winked at Song Yinsheng, Song Yinsheng understood, and hurriedly lowered his body to take care of Mo Yun.Meng Yuxuan turned to Wang Jin, finally broke out, and shouted sharply: "What a magistrate's yamen, he actually handles the case like this! If you treat me like this, let alone other people! When I report to the Holy Spirit tomorrow, I will make you lose your job and pay for your life!"

Hearing this, Wang Jin was so frightened that he almost peed out, and hurriedly kowtowed to argue: "My lord is wise! I have been wronged by my lowly position! The criminal has his own crimes, so the punishment is increased. He is holding a vermilion pen in his hand, and he is about to plead guilty!"

Meng Yuxuan laughed angrily, and said, "If you don't punish him, he will plead guilty?"

Seeing Meng Yuxuan's fierce words, Song Yinsheng seemed to have lost his mind, he was not as calm and indifferent as before, and when something was wrong, he got up and whispered in his ear: "Cousin, this is the magistrate's yamen, a place for reasoning. .”

It was only then that Meng Yuxuan realized that he had really been too aggressive just now, so he calmed down and said, "I brought a few witnesses to prove that Mo Yun is innocent. Mr. Wang, please sit back in front of the hall and continue the trial!"

Seeing that Meng Yuxuan had eased up, Wang Jin calmed down a little, and said, "In front of the prince, I dare not make mistakes!"

"Why don't you dare? Under the current national law, everyone is equal. You just try the case, and I want to sit in and listen in. The stolen goods have not been found, the plaintiff is not here, and the witnesses have not been passed. How did Mr. Wang clear the case?"

Wang Jin felt ashamed, and thought to himself: "Jian'er, Jian'er, it's all for you, daddy is doing well now!"Thinking about it, he stood up, smiled, and said: "The prince said that he brought witnesses, so let's ask witnesses to testify!"

Song Yinsheng sneered, walked up to Wang Jin, and said, "I was there when the jade was thrown last night. At the same time, my cousin, cousin, and several servant girls and servants were all there, which can prove that Mo Yun was lonely at that time. Drunk and unconscious, how can a person who can't even walk steadily steal the precious jade in full view?"

Hearing this, Wang Jin seemed to be enlightened, and hurriedly said: "Since Mr. Song said so, come to think of it, this Mr. Mo must not be the one who steals jade."

Wang Jin didn't say that there was someone else who stole the jade, but only that Mo Yun was not the one who stole the jade. Everyone knew why, but why.It's just that in order to reduce some troubles at the moment, I can only be so hasty, avoiding the important and taking the light.

Meng Yuxuan was even more worried about Mo Yun's injury, and was eager to heal him, so he said, "Master Wang is really aware of the details, since he has already judged Mo Yun's innocence, do I want to take this person away?"

"My lord, please do what you want!" Wang Jin hurried down the road and said, but he sighed in his heart: What is the relationship between this son of Mo Ming and this Meng Yuxuan?He is actually willing to come here in person, and even loses his temper?I almost hurt myself...

Meng Yuxuan snorted coldly, called the servant, repeatedly told him to be careful not to hurt Mo Yun, be cautious, and took Mo Yun back to the garden.
