Chapter 410
When Mu Jiaojiao heard this, her heart was shocked.

"Russia, please return to worship the tomb. He died at the age of 68 due to illness. '

I still remember a cold sentence in the history books, which clearly explained the ending of a generation of virtuous officials.But thinking about it now, she felt a painful pain in her heart.

The frail and old figure three years ago is still lingering in front of their eyes, but they have never seen him again.

This is how Zhang Jiuling's era came to an end.It was replaced by the era of Li Linfu, and then Yang Guozhong... one generation is not as good as one generation.In the end, the entire Tang Dynasty fell into chaos.The prosperous Tang Dynasty came to an end.Just like now, it gradually went up and downhill.

"If the sage keeps him in Chang'an for a longer time, he won't die so early." Cui Pu was still furious.

"Leave him in Chang'an and watch people like Li Linfu jump up and down every day? That's really bad. Rather than that, it's better to let him stay away from that place and live a peaceful life for a few days." Mu Jiaojiao said, "Moreover, all of this is predestined, there are no ifs."

"Indeed, for the dead, there are indeed no ifs. But for the living, there are!" Cui Pu paused.

Mu Jiaojiao was startled suddenly. "What do you want to do?"

"It's nothing. I originally thought that Xiao Changshi is dead, and Dai Ziang must have a good end. This ending is already good for me. But now it seems that this is still too cheap for them! Don't let them pay How can the price be worthy of what Zhang Zhongshu has suffered in the past three years?" Cui Pu sneered.

Mu Jiaojiao's eyes flickered, and then she slowly regained her composure.

"Have you decided yet?" she asked.

"It's decided!" Cui Puding nodded.

"Okay, I see." Mu Jiaojiao also nodded, and didn't say anything more.

Cui Pu turned his head slowly, and quickly embraced her, shoulder to shoulder, and leaned his head against her head. "I know it's very capricious of me to do this, and I'm irresponsible to you and the children. But there's no way, I just can't bear this tone. Let me keep holding it like this, I can't! I must vent it quickly!"

"I know, I know." Mu Jiaojiao nodded lightly, and patted him on the back tenderly, "You are just like this, and I didn't just find out today. So you can do whatever you want, me and The children are your most solid backing. But if possible, try to soften your movements as much as possible, and don't be caught if you can avoid being caught by the handle."

"Well, I know." Cui Pu rubbed her face lightly a few times, "You are so kind, lady."

Mu Jiaojiao smiled but said nothing.

The two stayed together for a while, then Cui Pu stood up, "I'm going to write a letter to Lu Jiu and Prince Wei."

In the next two months, the weather in Yangzhou Mansion was smooth and the years were quiet, but the city of Chang'an was full of turmoil, and things happened one after another.

First of all, the old mother and grandson who took the post of Chang'an Ling filed complaints to the Ministry of Criminal Justice one after another. The two of them bit Cui Pu and Xiao Changshi and others in Shouwang's mansion respectively.The matter of Cui Pu harboring the imperial court's criminals had just become a big issue, and the matter of Xiao Changshi and Dai Zi'ang's eldest son's preference for masculinity was also widely known.

During the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, it became common practice for officials to keep boys for fun.However, this was all done in private by everyone, and they didn't dare to say it on the stage.Now if things get serious, it will become a scandal.And people with such scandals will be judged by the world to be of bad conduct, at least they will not be tolerated in the officialdom.

Immediately after the news of Zhang Jiuling's death came, the sage was distraught when he heard about it, and gave Zhang Jiuling the governor of Jingzhou posthumously, the posthumous title of literature, and sent people to Qujiang, Shaozhou to worship the mausoleum.

Immediately afterwards, Niu Xianlin, who was appointed as the deposed envoy of Jiangnan Dongdao, returned to Chang'an, but he did not bring Cui Pu, who was harboring the imperial convict, back to Chang'an, but brought back Xiao Changshi's body!

Xiao Changshi and Dai Zi'ang's eldest son were charged with a series of crimes such as plundering criminals as slaves, lawlessness, liking for men, etc., and they couldn't be taken off.

And Dai Ziang was also guilty of the crime of covering up, abetting and false accusation, killing innocent people indiscriminately and so on.

The evidence of the crime is conclusive and cannot be denied.

For so many years, this is the first time such a big case broke out in Chang'an City.

But this is not the end.

When Dai Ziang was brought back to Chang'an and his eldest son was brought to the court of the Ministry of Punishment, Cao Shishilang even made an astonishing statement—"Back then we dozens of teenagers of the same age were locked in a cell in the barracks together. Five or six well-dressed gentlemen broke in. They couldn't help but turn us over and over again like piglets, and even stripped our clothes for inspection. In the end, I was taken away by Xiao Changshi, and my younger brother was taken away by Mr. Dai Dalang. They were taken away, and other young gentlemen were also taken away by Xie Langjun, Guan Langjun, etc. They took away one less, and took away three or four in one go!"

"We were tortured in their house separately. But these people still didn't feel that they were enjoying themselves enough. They often gathered together and took us together to gather for sex. Just as far as I saw, there were many nobles in Chang'an City! "

This is another time bomb detonated in Chang'an City. Not to mention the shock of the people, even the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty were panicked.

It seems that Cao Shishilang has already regarded death as home because of being tortured for three years, and he can say whatever is in his heart.He had bitten out quite a few noble sons in just one trial session.The time, the place, the person, everything he said clearly and clearly, it sounded like the truth.

All the officials of the Ministry of Punishment were dumbfounded.After finally reacting, they hurriedly announced their withdrawal today and drove away the people who were watching at the gate.However, what Cao Shishilang said has already been remembered by those who care.

Afterwards, although the government tried its best to suppress it, some capable folks picked up the gatherings that Cao Shishilang mentioned one by one.Those who participated in the party, their young masters, and even what they did were all dug out.

Then, another discerning businessman quickly assembled a group of painters, and based on these gatherings, they produced a set of well-made erotic pictures.As soon as the album was released, it was snapped up by many people.

The children of the officials involved in the incident tried their best to take back the album and burn it.However, how can their little efforts hinder the spread of the album?

The master is among the people.The more they suppress, the more people will be interested in these albums.The hardcover version is gone, so there are all kinds of manuscripts and facsimiles flying around the city of Chang'an, and everyone starts to discuss behind closed doors.

The longer the time, the more noble sons will be involved.Among them, Li Linfu's third concubine son and Niu Xianke's first-in-law son had the highest status.

Things intensified, and finally even the saint was alarmed.It was the saint who made the move, and the momentum of the uproar was stopped quietly.

It's just that those gentlemen who have become the protagonists of erotic paintings have already lost all face.

And at this time, the Ministry of Criminal Justice received another thick document, which was filled with the violations of law and discipline that the protagonists of these erotic pictures had done over the years.

Seeing this document, the officials of the Ministry of Punishment were about to cry—these gentlemen were simply not to be offended.Because of Cao Shishilang's nonsense before, and the people outside spread it again, they have been tortured by these nobles several times.Now there is such a piece of information again... How dare they investigate this thing in depth?Once checked, I'm afraid more nobles will be involved.They don't have the guts!

In desperation, the Minister of Criminal Affairs submitted the information to Li Linfu's case.

After patiently flipping through the files, Li Linfu's face was so dark that it was about to drip ink.

Niu Xianke sat aside respectfully: "Li Zhongshu, what do you think we should do now?"

"In Niu Shizhong's opinion, how should this matter be resolved?" Li Linfu asked without answering.

Niu Xianke quickly apologized with a smile: "This official is dull and can't think of a solution. No matter when and where, this official will only listen to Li Zhongshu. As long as you tell me how to do it, this official will resolutely implement it to the end!"

"The old man knows the loyalty of Niu Shizhong to the saint." Li Linfu stroked his beard and said, "It's just that now, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the six boys from the Boling Cui family made trouble. This method seems reckless, but it is actually very serious. I really mean it!"

"Yes, the officer found out, this is his revenge on us." Niu Xianke nodded repeatedly.

"It's not just revenge, it's also a warning." Li Linfu said, patting the thick stack of files, "Here, I have collected a lot of people's black information! Although most of them are nonsense, there are still a few Fatal. According to his temper, he can be spread out directly and spread to everyone. In this way, many people's futures will be ruined. But he didn't, what do you think is the reason?"

"But he wants to bargain with us?" Niu Xianke whispered.

"You are right." Li Linfu nodded.

"But what does he want?"

"What he wants is very simple, but to let the truth deal with a few confidantes and give him an explanation."

Hearing what he said calmly, Niu Xianke's eyes were wide open. "This kid is a bit too courageous! Just relying on a few hearsay news, he dares to threaten you, Li Zhongshu?"

"What else is he afraid to do? Have you forgotten what happened to your brother in Yangzhou?" Li Linfu asked with a smile.

Niu Xianke was speechless for a moment.

Li Linfu breathed a sigh of relief: "This young man is really amazing! The old man is a little afraid of him now."

"Li Zhongshu, you said that, but are you planning to back down?"

"Under such circumstances, if the truth is not backed down, is it possible to continue to confront him head-on?" Li Linfu rolled his eyes at him, "Now that the chaos in Chang'an City has become like this, who has the courage to make another scene? And don't forget, Zhang Jiuling just died!"

Although the saint is old, he is not completely confused.Especially now that Zhang Jiuling is dead, his guilt towards Zhang Jiuling is at its peak.If the two of them who brought Zhang Jiuling down from the horse back then dare to make trouble now, let's see if the saint will not deal with them!

Cui Pu also saw exactly this point, so he dared to let people out to make trouble.

And what they can do now is only one word - forbearance!

"Since he wants someone to be buried with Zhang Jiuling, then I can let some people accompany me. However, since he has benefited from the truth, he will return it to the truth in the future!" Li Linfu Tapping with two fingers on the couch, he said word by word.
