I am a judge in the Tang Dynasty - #95 - Chapter 95
Leaving the ancestral grave and returning to the county town.
Even though Song Yan, the magistrate of Qingshui County, made various requests and wanted to entertain Lin Xiu.
However, Lin Xiu refused on the grounds that he was on official business.
When you return to your old home, you will definitely feel emotional when you revisit your old place.
Looking at this old house that has been lived in for more than ten years, it has become so abandoned in just a few months.
It is inevitable to feel a little sigh in my heart.
My sister also looked around the house.
Smiling, she revealed the things she had hidden in every corner of her home.
Many childhood memories immediately emerged in Lin Xiu’s mind.
But after reminiscing, you have to face reality again.
Although the old house is good, it is no longer suitable for living, not to mention that the house has become a dilapidated house.
Just this small space, only two rooms.
It was barely possible for Lin Xiu and his sister to stay here.
But you know, Lin Xiu is now accompanied by Zhong Kui, Zhao Sheng and the government officials from the third squad.
There are also Zhong Li and Princess Changle.
How can so many people be squeezed into this small house?
“Lord Marquis, I have already prepared the post, why don’t you ask Lord Marquis to move there and have a rest?”Song Yan saw this opportunity and hurriedly stepped forward and said.
Lin Xiu can skip eating, but he can’t skip sleeping, right?
Sure enough, Lin Xiu nodded and said,”Then I have to thank Mr. Song!”
Hearing this, Song Yan secretly rejoiced.
You must know that Lin Xiu today is not just a marquis. He is also the yin and yang judge of the Tang Dynasty, a judge who can judge the souls of wronged souls.
Among them, he was widely rumored to be a judge walking in the world… Li Shimin had previously decreed that Lin Xiu had arbitrary power, even the highest judicial units in Chang’an, such as the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple, would use Lin Xiu. For the Lord, whenever Lin Xiu needs it, he must fully cooperate.
And when it comes to the local level, it is a presence that attracts countless people.
This Song Yan has no great ability and cannot be said to be an upright official. His thoughts are very simple.
If he can take care of this Lord Tongpan and use him as a supporter, he will not be able to go sideways in this officialdom in the future.
It will be a matter of time for
Xiao Jiujiu in his heart. How can Xiu not understand? This is why he refused his banquet.
After arriving at the hotel, he assigned all the rooms to the three squadrons of yamen, and they were all exhausted after walking for a day.
Let them change their clothes and rest early. After all, they will set off to Jinghe Town tomorrow.
Although it is only a day’s journey from Qingshui to Jinghe, they may not be able to take time off when they get there.……
“Mr. Song, it’s getting late, and I have to rest. If there’s nothing else, go back early!”Lin Xiu said with a calm voice without any unnecessary expression on his face.
Song Yan quickly bowed and saluted, nodded and said:”Yes, yes, yes, step back, I’ll leave now!”
As he spoke, Song Yan quietly withdrew from the room. But this guy was also an old man above the officialdom.
Lin Xiu didn’t go to the restaurant for the banquet, so he asked the waiters in the restaurant to bring the prepared wine and dishes. They were brought to the hotel.
Although they all had some dry food with them, even Zhao Sheng and Li Si couldn’t help but swallow their mouths when they saw it, and shook their heads helplessly. He thought to himself that Song Yan was really a smooth man and did not stop him, so he asked Zhao Sheng and the others to eat all the food and drinks so as not to waste them.
After they had eaten and drank enough, Lin Xiu returned to his room..
He took out the spiritual tree he had brought with him and placed it gently on the table next to the low couch.
Since taking this spiritual tree with him, Lin Xiu felt energetic and not much tired. It’s really a thousand-year-old spiritual tree.
It’s really not an extraordinary thing. Lin Xiu simply packed up his belongings and lay down early, ready to rest.
After a while, the sound of snoring started to disappear. It echoed in the room.
However, just when it was time
, there was a whistling sound outside the room.
Normally, it should not be such a strong wind at this time. Yes.
Lin Xiu was asleep and didn’t pay too much attention to it.
He turned over and continued to sleep… However, at this time, there seemed to be waves of crying coming from the wind.
At that time, it was not too loud, but gradually, it was as if the crying sound had reached Lin Xiu’s ears.
“Wuwuwu…wuwuwu…my son…I am suffering for my mother, wuwuwu………”
Lin Xiu opened his eyes suddenly.
He quickly turned over and sat up, and angrily shouted:”Where did this lonely ghost come from, and dared to act wild in front of me?”
After saying this, Lin Xiu’s eyes became stern.
Look towards the door.
As a result, I saw that the door that was originally closed was opened by someone at some point.
The candle that was still lit before going to bed was extinguished.
The candle was still half-burnt, so it obviously didn’t burn out on its own.
The air in the room was obviously a bit chilly.
Lin Xiu frowned and sat on the low couch.
Suddenly, he thought of something when he went to visit his parents’ graves.
Then I noticed something was not right in the cemetery.
Could it be possible…
Lin Xiu’s heart trembled, and he quickly made a seal with both hands in front of him.
Then, his body became light and he looked back, only to see his physical body sitting there steadily.
Lin Xiu frowned and said in a low voice:”Where are the Eighteenth Cavalry of Yanyun!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a puff of black smoke filling the air in front of him.
Eighteen people were seen wearing cold clothes, black veils on their faces, and black scarves on their heads, but they were not riding horses.
Each has a scimitar on his waist.
Under the moonlight, the scimitar bloomed with bursts of chill.
“The humble job is here!”
The eighteen riders of Yanyun bowed and saluted one after another.
“Leave a few of you to protect my body here, and the rest of you will go out with me! Lin Xiu said
“Yes!”
Of the eighteen people, four were left here to guard the body.
The rest of them all followed Lin Xiu.
They walked out of the hotel and walked straight to the cemetery outside the city.
However, just when Lin Xiu and the others When I came here
, I saw a few ghostly green will-o’-the-wisps hovering above my parents’ graves.
From time to time, I could hear the intermittent sounds of laughter coming from the will-o’s-wisps..
Lin Xiu’s eyes widened with cold light.
“So bold!”
