"A man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure..."

Just as Tang Long thanked Wang Lun, put away the gold and was about to leave, he suddenly heard a middle-aged scholar in his thirties and forties sighed on his head not far away. When Wang Lun and others came into the hotel, the man was sleeping soundly on the table, like drunkenness. In addition, the two tables were quite far apart, so everyone didn't care much at that time.

Suddenly, when he heard this person sighing, the four of them were shocked, and they thought not to let this person hear the content of the conversation? Wang Lun asked himself that he did not reveal any confidential affairs in the conversation just now, so he was not panicked. But Tang Long could no longer hold back and grabbed the table and asked, "Scholar, make the words clear!"

The middle-aged scholar did not answer, and looked at Tang Long for a while, and then said after a long time, "Is Teacher Xu from the Golden Spear Class your brother?"

Tang Long couldn't figure out the man's routine for a moment, and said, "That's right, what's the point?"

The scribe shook his head and saw that the three of them were looking at him again, so he got up and walked straight over, and sat at Wang Lun and the others. Seeing this, Tang Long followed him.

The scribe had just sat down and said, "I heard for a long time that there were many generous people in Hebei and Shandong. This official spent a hundred golds while waving his hand, which was quite rare!"

Wang Lun only looked at the scholar and smiled and said, "It is up to you to plan things for friends. If you have money, you can contribute money. If you have strength, you can't pay much. Justify it by pounding!"

The scribe laughed and said, "I'm just saying a word!" Then the man apologized to Wang Lun and the other four, "I just woke up and accidentally heard about the conversations of several people. I sighed for a moment and disturbed you. It was so rude!"

Wang Lun bowed his hand and said, "It's okay! Meeting is fate. Today, we will meet our seniors, and have a drink together!"

The scholar smiled and clinked Wang Lun's wine glass, and then dried the wine in the glass. After the wine, Wang Lun raised his words and heard him say, "Senior sighed just now, but why?"

The scribe looked at Tang Long after hearing this and said, "Do your brother have a family heirloom treasure?"

Tang Long was shocked and said in a silence: "Tang Qijia!?"

When Wang Lun saw this, he suddenly realized it and said to the literati: "Is Gao Qiu interested in the Xu family's armor?"

The scholar shook his head and said, "He is just carrying a bad reputation for others. It's better not to say this! But Teacher Xu has no worries about his life yet. Kaifeng Prefecture will definitely not be sentenced to death!"

Tang Long hurriedly asked, "I'm so upset, why is this?"

The scribe said slowly: "I can't tell you what kind of crime is this? A heavy sentence can be judged according to military law, and a light sentence can be punished by dozens of sticks to settle the case. This crime is obviously a deadlock. If Taiwei Gao is determined to commit Teacher Xu's death penalty, he will definitely not leave such a big flaw. At least he will work hard like conspiring Teacher Lin. Besides, he failed to harm Teacher Lin last time, and now he sent people to Kaifeng Prefecture. Aren't you afraid that he will be dealt with again in a case with a reason and investigate no evidence, and finally assassinate Junzhou?"

Hearing the scribe's misty words, Tang Long became more and more confused as he heard it, he had to ask the scribe's words. The scribe smiled and then said: "As an imperial guard like Teacher Xu, if you want to ask for death, whether it is the commander of the Third Yai Palace or the prefect of Kaifeng, after the verdict, the document of this case must be heard by Datian, and it can only be implemented after approval. If you really ask Teacher Xu's death sentence, the city will cause the whole city to be heard by His Majesty, and Taiwei Gao is not beautiful, so a crime that can be made big or small will not attract the attention of the government and the public. At that time, even if Kaifeng Prefecture gives a discount on the intention of the Taiwei and a decent punishment such as a slaughter, the Taiwei's purpose will be achieved!"

Tang Long was still a little confused and asked again: "Why did Gao Qiu pretend to be a Kaifeng Mansion? Didn't his three yamen also convict my brother?"

The scribe shook his head and said, "No one wants to suffer for others. It is not Gao Qiu who wants to harm your brother!"

Tang Long finally understood that he had no blood on his face at this time and bowed to the scholar and said, "Please save my brother!"

The scribe helped him up and said, "You will go to find Sun Foer according to the method taught by this official just now. This person has always been in a bad way with Gao Qiu. His daughter married Sun of the Caijing clan as a concubine and was very favored. Gao Qiu was not strong enough for a while and his foundation was not stable, so Sun Ding could not do so. Besides, Gao Qiu did not mean to harm your brother's life this time. The purpose was only for the entrusted armor. You should go and get some joints earlier, so that your brother could suffer less!"

When Tang Long heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked the man: "I wish you a great name for the benefactor!"

The scribe waved his hand and said, "A mere trivial matter is not worth mentioning!"

Tang Long just asked, the scholar could not be pestered, and finally said, "My surname is Wen, let's go!"

Wang Lun sat aside and listened to the scholar talking about the anecdotes in Tokyo's officialdom. Even Gao Qiu's inside story of framing Xu Ning was so clear. He also heard that he claimed his surname was Wen, and a name appeared in his mind.

"Thank you for your two benefactors for helping me. I thank you for your brother!" Tang Long bowed and thanked Wang Lun and the scholar named Wen.

Seeing this, both of them got up and returned the courtesy. Wang Lun asked Zhang San to go to Kaifeng Mansion with Tang Long. He was originally a local tyrant here, so it would be more convenient to have him in his work.

Tang Long thanked him and went out with Zhang San. Wang Lun arrived for the scribe and said, "I heard that there is a professor Wen in Anren Village outside Tokyo. He has two names and is Huanzhang. He is well-versed in strategy and is good at military operations. He also has many contacts with important officials in the court and regards him as a guest on the seat. The senior revealed Gao Qiu's secret matter this time, aren't he afraid that he would blame him?"

The literati saw that Wang Lun actually guessed his identity, and stared at Wang Lun curiously for a while, then smiled suddenly and said, "I don't expect someone to recognize me!"

Wang Lun smiled and said, "I don't know if the professor remembers it. More than ten years ago, a slut nicknamed the four-legged snake interacted with the professor while playing tricks on the street. Now, as the governor of Shangdang, he will tell everyone that you have the talent of Sun Wu and the wisdom of Zhuge. The younger generation has listened to the late students, so he remembers it!"

Wen Huanzhang clapped his head with his palm and said, "It's him!", and then sighed, "It's still a poor and humble friend who never forgets each other! I thought I had lived outside the Tokyo city for more than ten years, but I almost forgot this old friend. I don't think he still remembers me!"

When he saw Huanzhang, he felt the loneliness in his words. Wang Lun could understand the loneliness in his words. He thought that this man was talented and learned, but he would not be valued in his life. He was not from Tokyo and had wandered around the world when he was young. He had been living outside Tokyo for nearly ten years and had been in contact with ministers in the court for a long time. He was only jealous of his talent and was suppressed by his face and respect, so he was still in the wild for more than ten years. Later, when Gao Qiu sent troops to Liangshanpo, Xu Jingcai, the governor of Shangdang, recommended him to Gao Qiu. Unfortunately, he was a righteous person and could not be valued by Gao Qiu. After his defeat, he still retired to the mountains.

Thinking of this, Wang Lun thought and said, "As the saying goes, "Tree moves to die, people move to live. Have you ever thought of a different place to wait?"

Wen Huanzhang smiled and stared at Wang Lun's eyes and said, "Does the official want to lure me into the gang?"

Wang Lun immediately laughed and said, "Where did I reveal my flaws?"

Wen Huanzhang also smiled and said, "I was wandering around the world when I was a teenager, and I have seen some people. The hero behind the official is not like the guards who are hired by ordinary wealthy families. He is afraid that blood will be splashed on his hands. The official's methods are good for the younger generation. Xu Ning has never known you. The official saves him at all costs, but I am jealous of him! If I were ten years younger, I might still have the blood to follow the official, but unfortunately I am old now and my heart is also weak!"

Wang Lun smiled and said, "Such senior is determined to stay outside this Tokyo city, looking at the vague future from afar, wasting the years?"

Wen Huanzhang didn't say anything, but just looked at the fallen leaves dancing with the wind outside the hotel window, feeling faintly.
