Criminal investigation in ancient times

Now He Ming rented a two-entry courtyard in the capital, and brought his younger sister out of the palace to live with him. After returning home, he felt uneasy all the time, so he had no choice but to tell He Min about it.

He Min was surprised when he heard this: "Brother, you actually like men?!"

He Ming rubbed his forehead and said, "I only like Lin Xiaoze."

He Min swallowed her saliva and said, "Oh my god... pinch me quickly, am I dreaming!"

He Ming unceremoniously pinched her hard, until she screamed like a wow. "I'm still waiting for you to find me a sister-in-law! Sigh... my wish has been shattered, so what's so good about Lin Xiaoze, let my brother miss him so much."

He Ming said seriously: "He's good everywhere."

He Min curled her lips: "Since his family knows about it, what should you do? Not all families are as well-informed as my sister and I, maybe his parents will marry him right away."

When He Ming heard this, his heart ached unbearably, what he was most afraid of was this, if his father and mother were to marry Lin Xiaoze as his sister had said, the two of them might not be able to be together.

When I went to the Lin family the next day, the servant of the Lin family said euphemistically: "Our wife said that you don't need to visit the young master in the future." Of course, that's not what Mrs. Lin said originally. Don't let that man surnamed He step into the Lin Mansion again, let him go as far as he wants!"

He Ming stood in front of the door and refused to leave. Mrs. Lin was afraid that Mr. Lin would come back and bump into him, so she came out anxiously and angrily, "Mr. It’s good to come to him, it will damage his reputation, and it’s not good for you two.”

He Ming: "Ma'am, I really admire Xiao Ze."

Mrs. Lin became even more angry when she heard this, and said: "The combination of a man and a woman is the right way in the world. You are a man who didn't go to find that woman, but why did you seduce my son to go astray? We Ze'er must be tempted by you to do this, you Don't step into our Lin's house again, or I will let the servant coax you out!" After saying that, he turned and entered the gate.

As soon as He Ming heard what his sister said, the Lin family had already chosen a marriage for him.No... If Xiao Ze were to marry that lady of the Ministry of Rites or something, the two of them would have no future. Since they really love each other, they can't just let it go!He lifted up his clothes, knelt in front of Lin's residence with his legs "thumping", and said loudly: "He really admires Lin Xiaoze, Madam, please help me."

It just so happened that Lin Cheng came back from the outside, and today he told the Minister of Rites about the marriage of the two families. How could he have thought that he bumped into this matter when he arrived at the door of his house, and he realized it after thinking about it. That's what happened.

The appearance of He Ming kneeling at the door vaguely reminded him that Zhang Rui's father also knelt in front of the door begging to marry his younger sister back then, and his anger soared. Get over it, even if Lin Xiaoze dies, I won't let the two of you be together, I can't afford to lose this man!" After saying that, he entered the mansion angrily.

He Ming sat paralyzed on the ground, and his heart gradually became cold. I am afraid that even if he knelt in front of the door until he died, he would not be able to solve this matter, so he had to find another way!

Lin Xiaoze was imprisoned in the ancestral hall and didn't know what was going on outside. He was bored counting the tablets on the table, but he was thinking of He Ming. He didn't expect that woman to be his sister. It's a shame that he got sick because of it... …

Mother already knows about this, what should I do?I will definitely scold myself or beat him up, oh, just suffer a little bit, as long as I can be with Dr. He, everything is fine, but I must not let my father know, if his father knows, it will be fine. I'm going to peel off his skin!

He never expected that this matter could be resolved with a little physical pain!

***

The new Emperor of Chaozhong succeeded to the throne, and a lot of waste was waiting to be done. The people who used to be close to the eldest prince were all twitching their tails, for fear that if they were not careful, they would upset the new emperor and get their heads cut with a big knife.

If you say that the new emperor is also good-tempered, he didn't take these people seriously. Many people rose instead of falling, and some people were reused.Others had to think about it, I'm afraid those who were promoted were not from the First Prince, but from the current Emperor!Thinking about it like this, it is frightening that the people in the lineage of the first prince became suspicious of each other and no longer trusted each other. The faction that was originally united suddenly collapsed. I have to say that the second prince is clever!Li Qian was also resigned at home due to his advanced age.

The eldest concubine brought her young child back to live in Li's house.Because the eldest prince——is missing.

The emperor was also extremely anxious when he learned about it, he was really anxious, because the eldest prince really didn't know where he was!Originally, Jiang Shuo was asked to put him in a dungeon, but he was attacked at night and kidnapped the eldest prince!

If the eldest prince is dead, that's fine, but he is still lost under his nose if he is not dead, which makes him sleepless at night, for fear that he will suddenly come back and take away his throne. who stole him out?Zhou Yongzheng sent a lot of people to search everywhere but couldn't find the whereabouts of the eldest prince, and he became more and more suspicious.

At this time, no one of the First Prince expected that he would appear in the Xiongnu!

Wang Yun handed the goat milk tea to Zhou Yongsheng and said, "It's really rude to bring the eldest prince here in this way."

Zhou Yongsheng took the tea bowl and said in amazement: "Who are you? Why did you bring me here?!" Speaking of which, he suddenly cut off contact with the outside world after he was imprisoned in Dali Temple. Ken passed on his words, and of course no one sent them in.

One day after eating, he suddenly felt dark in front of his eyes, and fell to the ground unconsciously. When he opened his eyes again, he was already trapped and pulled on the carriage.I don't know how long it took, but when I was taken out of the car, I arrived at this strange place.

Wang Yun filled the tea bowl by himself and said: "Every year, in order to exchange some tea and cloth from Dazhou, our Huns would take a lot of cattle and sheep to the border to exchange... If the Xiongnu language Dazhou merged into one, you guys We can eat delicious beef and mutton from the Xiongnu Kingdom, and we can also drink tea from the Great Zhou Dynasty, the best of both worlds!"

Zhou Yongsheng sneered and said, "Are you from the Huns? Do the Huns want to submit to my great Zhou?"

Wang Yun waved his hands and said with a smile: "Prince, you are overthinking. Do you know that your younger brother has already succeeded? The emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty is a good partner with us Huns."

Zhou Yongsheng's face became angry, and he threw the teacup in his hand on the ground fiercely and said, "This villain!...He colluded with the Huns?!"

Wang Yun was taken aback and said, "Oh, eldest prince, you actually found out. You know, your younger brother took great pains to ascend to the throne. While pretending to be virtuous and virtuous, he secretly sent someone to contact my elder brother, and sent Da Zhou I really have to thank him for selling our iron ore and rocks to us, hahahahaha."

Zhou Yongsheng's face was distorted, and he suddenly said: "He is seeking skin with a tiger!"

Wang Yun: "If you don't enter the tiger's lair, you won't get the tiger's cubs. Everyone takes what they need. The last time the army invaded Tongzhou was just to let him ascend the throne. Do you know what your brother, the emperor, promised us?"

Zhou Yongsheng said: "What? Could it be half of the country?"

Wang Yun said: "Hey, the people of Dazhou are so stingy. But we have allowed two trade gates. In this way, it will be easy for the Huns to enter Dazhou."

Zhou Yongsheng clenched his fists tightly, his temples on both sides of his head thumped, he felt that his brother was crazy!How dare you do such a thing!

The main reason why the Xiongnu have been coveting the Great Zhou for so many years and have never dared to send troops is the lack of food and grass, but if these two commercial ports are opened, the consequences will be disastrous... He knew that someone in the court was colluding with the Xiongnu, and he always thought it was who in the court The prince colluded with the Xiongnu. He once thought it was the fifth prince, and later thought it was Zhou Yin, but he never expected that it was his younger brother...

Wang Yun clapped his hands and said, "Your younger brother is really smart. He has even thought out his own escape route. Once someone finds out that the minerals have been sold, he will directly push it to your Twelve Emperor Uncle. This will not only save himself, but also get rid of a serious problem." .”

Zhou Yongsheng said in his heart: The twelve princes and his younger brother have always been good, when did these two fall out?Maybe last time Zhou Yin told himself about the salt merchant in order to suppress the second prince?However, I was so suspicious that I didn't believe him, forget it, the matter is over, the overall situation is settled, and it is useless to say anything. "Why do you tell me this, don't tell me you are just kind."

Wang Yun got up and said: "The eldest prince is so smart and naturally understands what I mean. Don't you feel unwilling? It's obviously your throne but someone else took it away!"

Zhou Yongsheng's eyes were dark: "I'm not willing."

Wang Yun bewitched, "Then, let's take it back!"

Zhou Yongsheng: "Oh? How do you seize it? Could it be that you use your Huns' soldiers and horses? Hahaha, although I want to ascend to the throne, I am not as mad as my brother. I will never do anything that betrays the country and seeks glory. If you want to find me It's the wrong person. You don't have to persuade me, if you want to kill me, kill me, I won't promise you anything." Then he closed his eyes and said nothing.

Wang Yun snorted angrily: "The eldest prince is so brave, it's not so easy to want to die! Take him down!"

***

"At the beginning of human beings, nature is good, nature is similar, habits are far away..." In the distance, smoke rises from the kitchen, and in a simple thatched hut, a man is sitting on a lame stool, holding a copy of his own book in his hand. The book, I shook my head and read it with great joy.

The four or five young boys below also followed his example and shook their heads, shaking off the not-so-tight bun on their heads.

"If you don't teach, your nature will change. The way to teach is to specialize..."

"Master! Why is the surname Naiqian if the dog doesn't bark? What does the surname Naiqian mean?" A thick-headed boy stood up and asked.

The master rubbed his forehead and said, "Didn't I explain it to you last time when I was a teacher? This sentence is not a dog. This sentence means that if you don't study hard when you are young, your temper will gradually change with the environment." changed……"

"Master, I still think that dogs don't bark, cats don't scratch, and cats meow meow more easily."

"Hahahaha..." Immediately, the children burst into laughter, pointing at the thick-headed kid and said, "Second brother is very talented, hahaha, a dog doesn't bark and a cat doesn't scratch."

Zhang Rui put down the book with a scratched edge, knocked on the table and said, "Quiet, quiet!" The children below were still laughing, but suddenly rolled their eyes, got up and walked down, holding a wooden stick as thick as a little finger in his hand Said: "You are so stubborn, it really hurts to be a teacher, reach out your hand!"

The boy named Er Zi's face turned pale, looking at the situation, he wanted to hit the palm! "Master, I... I was wrong."

Zhang Rui said triumphantly, "What's wrong?"

"I, I... I shouldn't disturb the teacher's lecture."

Zhang Rui: "Go to the back and stand for punishment."

The second son walked back with his head down, when Zhang Rui turned around, the little boy made a face at his back, which made the other children laugh out loud.

Zhang Rui shook his head helplessly, and continued teaching them to read the Three Character Classic.

At noon, the children all went home for dinner. Zhang Rui cleaned up the table and walked towards the backyard.There is a dilapidated old house in the back, which he bought for two taels of silver, and it would be nice to live in after repairing it.

There are a few reed chickens raised in the yard, which can lay several eggs a day, and they don't need to be fed on weekdays, because they know how to find food by themselves.

"Is Brother Zhang at home?"

Zhang Rui put down his things and hurriedly responded, "Here, come in."

A middle-aged woman came in with a basket in her hand and said, "Brother Zhang hasn't eaten yet?"

Zhang Rui saw that it was the sister-in-law of the neighbor Li's family who hurriedly moved the stool for her to sit down and said, "No, is there something wrong with the sister-in-law?"

The sister-in-law of the Li family smiled and said: "I will bring you some food, and you can't finish it. It's not enough to go to the city to sell it once, so I will bring it to you. You can't eat much by yourself. What do you want to eat?" Just pick the vegetables in my vegetable garden, don't be shy!"

Zhang Rui hurriedly said: "Thank you, sister-in-law, I always eat your food..."

The sister-in-law of the Li family said with a sullen face, "Don't give me money. My man saw the big money you gave me last time and scolded me. You see, you teach our second son how to read and write every day." If you charge a penny, this order is nothing, take it to eat."

Then he took out a large amount of money from his pocket and put it on Zhang Rui's bed and said, "This money. My sister-in-law wouldn't want it either. You, you are good at everything but you are too far-fetched." He took out the vegetables in the basket, carried Empty basket left.

Zhang Rui couldn't help laughing when he saw the dishes on the floor. He squatted down to tidy up the dishes, picked a few good-looking cucumbers and threw them into the tub, and took them to wash.

Go out to the right and walk tens of meters away. There is a small river with crystal clear water. Everyone in the village eats the water from this river.After washing the dishes, he got up and walked towards the house with the tub in his arms.When he walked to the door and saw two children poking their heads at the door, Zhang Rui coughed lightly.

The two children turned their heads and looked: "Master, master~ change the emperor, master, there is a notice posted at the entrance of the village, go and read it."

The wooden basin in Zhang Rui's hand fell to the ground with a bang.
