Why do the dead know the secrets that you will know?

The deceased Gao Cheng is a descendant of the Hou Mansion, and your Pang is the concubine of the Hou Lord, one walks in the outer courtyard, and the other lives in the inner courtyard of the second gate. Cheng dΓΉ who is so intimate that he has nothing to talk about and can talk about secrets?

As soon as Lu Li and Shen Wansha said this, Du's mother also spontaneously found the direction of the attack, and asked sharply: "Master Hou has been dead for seven years, but my aunt can't stand it!" ”

Pang Zi's face was flushed, and his eyebrows were ashamed, "I didn't!" ”

"Then why do you know that Gao Cheng was killed because he learned the secret!"

"I guess!"

Shen Wansha was happy, and the handle of the fan knocked on the palm of his hand, "If you guess, you can know the murderer, how can there be unsolved cases in the world?" If you are like this, the court will give you a plaque, and as soon as there is a case, you will be asked to carry a sedan chair to pick you up, so that your compassionate heart can help all sentient beings. ”

Ponzi's face was red and white, white and blue, and the transformation was called a good look. She was silent, as if she understood that she had done something stupid, and was thinking about how to bring down the Zhang family, and by the way, pull herself out of the whirlpool.

But her actions were too imposing, and she couldn't seem to refute it now......

Mother Du stared at Pang Zi with disdain: "Some people are not clean themselves, they think that others are not clean, you are the mud on the ground, you think that the whole world is mud, and there can be no noble white clouds." is obviously a frog at the bottom of the well, but he dares to compare himself to the sea Kunpeng, and he doesn't even want his face! The rumors stop at the words of the wise, presumably my aunt has never heard of it! ”

Pang Zi's lips bit blood, and his beautiful eyes were bloodshot, stubborn and terrifying, "No matter how you quibble, the Zhang family has lost its reputation, and all the people in Beijing know it!" ”

"You see? Or did all the people in Shangjing see it? Mother Du sneered, "Seeing is believing, hearing is false, these eight words, presumably my aunt has never heard of it!" ”

"I just knowβ€”"

"That's it!" Zhang slammed the table, "Don't you think the house is messy enough!" ”

Mother Du immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty, "The old slave has trespassed, and begged Mrs. to punish her." ”

"You are the old man next to me, I will give you face, and I will punish you later." Zhang waved his hand to let Du's mother get up, and looked at Pang Zi indifferently, "You have lost enough face, but there are not many people who are worried about Hou Ye before his death, and I won't punish you harshly, go back and think about it behind closed doors." ”

Pang Zi didn't look at Zhang after he came, and naturally refused to admit punishment at this moment, "Are you weak-hearted!" Her voice was very sharp, "I'm afraid that others will find out what happened back then, so as soon as this word comes up, I have to suppress it immediately!" ”

Zhang is Mrs. Hou and has absolute rights in the house, she said that let Pang go back and think about it behind closed doors, and naturally someone will come to invite her. Pang Zi didn't do it, the people must have started to 'help', Pang Zi struggled desperately, even scolding while struggling, like a shrew scattering wild, a few mothers and maids couldn't restrain her for a while, the whole scene was very lively, very ...... Unsightly.

Lu Li was dumbfounded, the most important demeanor of women in ancient times was that the women who slapped their legs and scolded the street on the street had to pay attention to their posture, their hair could be messy, and their clothes and skirts could not be opened, this Pang Zi didn't care about it at all, as long as they weren't dragged out!

It really doesn't match her appearance and temperament......

Pang is shameless, Hou Fu wants it, and Zhang is still sitting on top and watching! The mothers and maids didn't dare to exert too much force at all, this big summer, the aunt was wearing thin silk yarn, and she accidentally tore it and made an ugly ...... Who's it?

……

Shen Wansha sighed with the handle of his fan against his forehead, "I said Ponzi, why can't you understand human speech?" The most important question now is not Cui Luo's death, but how do you know the cause of Gao Cheng's death, and you also know the murderer's mechanism! ”

Pang Zi didn't leave, and it was a shame to tear in front of the guests, Zhang waved his hand to let the maids go down and give her a chance to speak.

"I guessed!" Pang Zi bit his lip, "I know that Hou Ye was killed by the Zhang family, and Gao Cheng is a loyal servant of Hou Ye, after so many years, I didn't know it at the time, and I should have noticed it now......"

Shen Wansha shook the fan in his hand, looked at Lu Li silently, and his little eyes were full of helplessness: I can't do it, you can go on!

Lu Li asked Pang Shi: "The Wu'an Hou family has a great cause, and the loyal servant is not one person, why don't you care about the people next to you and pay attention to Gao Cheng alone?" ”

Ahh Shen Wansha punched his palms, his eyes lit up, why didn't he think of this!

Even if Pang Zi and Gao Cheng don't have an ugly relationship, they can't touch the lower lip with the upper lip, just guess, there must be a reason!

"Because I made the silver......," Pang Zi twitched his lips, "and he promised me that I would let Master Yan enlighten my son!" ”

As soon as he heard the three words of Master Yan, Zhang's face immediately changed, "You are also worthy!" ”

"Why not!" Pang Shi glared at Zhang, "Master Yan's great talent, if it weren't for an accident, he would have already shown his skills in the court, wouldn't it be a waste to teach only the prince?" is also the son of the Hou Ye, why can't you treat it the same way, your mother and son deliberately blocked my son's future, is it to dominate all the family wealth of the Hou Mansion! ”

Shen Wansha couldn't listen to it anymore, "Your son is just a concubine, according to the law, it is impossible to give too many things to divide the family, all the family wealth of the Hou Mansion belongs to the wife and the son, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

Pang Shi turned his head and glared at Shen Wansha: "Master Hou promised me before his death, saying that everything would be left to my son!" ”

"Can a man's words in bed be taken seriously?" Shen Wansha sneered, "Besides, if I'm not mistaken, your son is only six years old, doesn't he seem to be a posthumous son?" When Hou Ye said this, your son had not yet been born, can you believe it? ”

"What Master Hou said to me will be fulfilled! My daughter got married with ten miles of red makeup, and I saw it all over Kyoto! ”

……

They were talking over there, and Lu Li asked Zhao Shu in a low voice on the side: Cui Luo is dead, Cui Zhi, as the only son-in-law, no matter how young he is, doesn't he have to inherit the title, why is he still just a son? Who is this feasting master?

Zhao Zhu won the trust of Emperor Taijia and took over various news channels in Shangjing, and he really knew Lu Li's problem.

When Cui Luo died, Cui Zhi was still young, Zhang's generation on his behalf folded Mingzhi, saying that the food of the king, the matter of loyalty, Cui Zhi is young, need to work hard to learn and improve, it is better to be eighteen years old and then inherit the knight, if you can grow into a talent, you should be worried about the monarch, if you are crooked and incapable, you can't serve the country but drag down others, simply don't want this title, please ask the emperor for permission.

The excerpt is written with modesty and prudence, and the attitude is tenacious and strong, Emperor Taijia praised it after reading it, recognized its loyalty, and also sent the excerpt to the powerful ministers of the clan, so that they can study hard, not as good as a woman!

The Zhang family is very smart, this move made the emperor remember their mother and son, at least before Cui Zhi was eighteen years old, others did not dare to bully their orphans and widows, giving Cui Zhi enough time to grow. At the age of eighteen, he is enough to take care of a family, even if Cui Zhi is not very smart, as long as he is not crooked, even if he only has a loyal and honest character, and sends it to the emperor, the emperor will not get tired of him.

Of course, the Zhang family will not allow Cui Zhi to grow crooked, and she will do everything she can to make Cui Zhi grow into an outstanding person.

Zhang used all her efforts to pave a sunny avenue for her son, and this licking of calves was touching......

The gentleman who taught Cui Zhi in the Hou Mansion was the master of the banquet. The banquet master is named An, is an orphan, since he was a child with the hermit in the mountains to study, only eight buckets high, unparalleled demeanor, but there is no surplus wealth, life is a little hard.

When Yan'an went to Beijing to seek a future, it happened to be the year when Cui Luo was made a marquis. Cui Luo was in danger and was seen by Yan An, who was passing by, and Yan An saved his life. Later, Yan An was seriously ill, Cui Luo invited a famous doctor for him, and Yan An was able to survive...... After going back and forth, the two became lifelong friends.

In just a few days in Shangjing, Yan'an became famous and admired by many people. Cui Luo is a member of the Cui clan, he was made a marquis, and he is also in harmony with Yan'an, a famous man, and his reputation will naturally not be bad.

But Yan'an's luck was not good, and somehow, he suffered a head injury and broke his appearance. Despite the doctor's best efforts, he was left with a long scar that started from his forehead, crossed his eyebrows, and fell to the corners of his eyes.

No matter how thirsty the court is, it must also pay attention to the faΓ§ade, there are many talented people in Daxia, and the court will not have to have a person with a defective face, so the career path of this banquet is broken.

Yan An was discouraged and wanted to pack up his things and return to his hometown, but Cui Luo stopped him, and he desperately left him in the Hou Mansion, saying that he would be a good brother for a lifetime, and if he had a bite to eat, he would never let Yan An suffer! Yan An thanked him for his friendship and stayed.

He lived in the Hou Mansion and served as a staff member for Cui Luo. But whenever there is something in the Hou Mansion, it is related to the imperial court, or daily trivialities, as long as it can help, Yan'an will do it. Of course, his status is not different from that of a slave, everything is treated very well, and he only listens to Cui Luo's words, and when Cui Luo is not there, Zhang's words are also listened to, as for others...... He simply wouldn't have paid attention.

After Cui Luo died, Yan An did not leave, and became a master for Cui Zhi, teaching him with all his heart.

Yan Ancai has a good character, and Cui Zhi has been a teacher, which is really a blessing. Cui Zhi is fifteen this year, and his talent and character are good, the only thing that is bad is his experience, and Zhang is very satisfied. She was heartbroken for her son's future, and now she is widowed, and her only hope is Cui Zhi, so whoever makes up her mind on Cui Zhi is poking her heart......

No wonder when it comes to the banquet master, she can't hold back at all, and her love is directly on her face.

After Zhao Shu explained, Lu Li suddenly realized and understood.

In the main hall, after Pang Zi came in, Zhang Shi drove Cui Zhi out with his eyes, probably because he didn't want him to see such a scene. She wants him to experience his mind and hone his skills, but the inner house is dirty, and it is not a man's business......

Pang Zi was crazy and made trouble in front of Zhao Zhu, Zhao Zhu, as the king of Ping, could not be ignored. In ancient times, it was a great sin for a woman to kill her husband, and the Zhang family was widowed, and her reputation was very important.

But this Pang is scheming, disrespectful to the housewife, and his eyebrows and eyes are too flexible, and he is afraid that he is also a restless person, and he needs to be tried for a trial.

……

It was almost noon, several people were hungry, and after a morning of trouble, Zhang should also be tired. This matter can't be explained for a while, Pang Zi is making trouble, they don't look at it very well, there will be people from the government in the afternoon, Zhao Shu thought about simply letting the officials investigate and collect evidence first, and ask for confessions to find clues......

Zhao Shu offered to say goodbye, but Zhang didn't stop him, but looked at Lu Li with a little reluctance: "Come and play ...... often."

Lu Li replied solemnly: "Aunt Zhang, don't worry, I will come to see you often." ”

……

Lu Li and a few people left, walked through the weeping flower gate, and saw Cui Zhi listening to the training in the hexagonal pavilion outside the moon gate.

Cui Zhi stood with his hands down, his little face tightened, and a middle-aged man stood opposite him, wearing a moon-white wide-sleeved scribe's robe, his posture was as tall as a bamboo, and his voice was clear and strict: "There are filthy people in the world, and it is not enough to speak...... If you are worried and slack, you will think cautiously from the beginning and respect the end, if you are worried about the opposition, you will think humbly to accept it, if you want to slander the evil, then you will think about the right body to dethrone the evil......"

"It is not a gentleman's act to discuss the length of a person in private!"

Cui Zhi hung his head, "I was wrong...... If you see that something is wrong, you can find a way to correct it, and it is useless to talk and abuse others in private, and it is also harmful to your own personal morality......"

"It's good if you understand......" The warm breeze blew through the man's black hair, revealing a plump and handsome face, as well as a deep scar between his eyebrows...... He sighed slightly, with a warm smile on the corner of his lips, "Your mother is very hard, don't let her down." ”

"Yes......"

Lu Li tugged at Zhao Zhu's sleeve: "That's Yan'an?" ”

Zhao Shu looked at it and bowed his jaw: "Yes." ”

Shen Wansha squeezed over, stretched his neck and looked into the pavilion, "Wow, it's so good-looking!" Worthy of Baume & Mercier! "It's just that scar between the eyebrows, it's a pity.

"Better than me?" Helian Yu dragged Shen Wansha back, and there was affection in the peach blossom eyes, which could almost make people drown in it.

Shen Wansha's face was a little red, he coughed twice, pushed him away and pulled Lu Li's sleeve, "Little Li, what are we going to eat at noon?" ”

……

As a prince, it is very convenient for Zhao Zhu to go to any restaurant to eat, and he doesn't have to queue up. Shen Wansha simply made a decision and went to the most famous restaurant in Shangjing with the most guests.

The meal was quite enjoyable, and after the meal was full, several people began to discuss the next matter, and after the discussion, Zhao Shu called the people from the government to explain it.

After checking today, the murderer may be in the Hou Mansion, which happens to be not far from Chaoyang Street, and the scope is also in line. The first thing the government officials did when they went over was to carefully examine the confession, analyze the deceased's sincere social relations and network, and see if they could find out the suspicious person.

Pang Zi made a big fuss in the mansion today, not to say that Zhang's husband was killed, Zhang said that the government had investigated and proved that there was no such thing, and the officials needed to bring a message to Shangguan to check the file seven years ago to see if there was such a thing, so as to make a settlement.

In addition, there are three main points in this case. One is Gao Cheng's door key, the tiger head lock is difficult to open, and Gao Cheng doesn't sound like a careless person who forgets to lock the door, so if you find the key, you are likely to find the suspect; The second is the murder weapon, the wounds on the deceased are special, the appearance of the murder weapon is not common, and the uncommon does not mean that it is difficult to find, as long as the murder weapon is found, the suspect will naturally have it; The third is the reddish lacquerware that was lost in the deceased's room.

I don't know what that lacquerware is, but someone else took it away at such a sensitive point, and there must be something special about it. Although the cabinet was tall and long, the middle partition was not high, and there were red marks in the depths of the cabinet, so it must not be too big......

Lu Li spoke, Shen Wansha added, Zhao Shu nodded Yan on the side, and the messenger was afraid that he would not be able to remember, so he simply asked someone below to come over with a pen and paper and take notes.

……

Asking for a confession will not be so fast, Lu Li also felt a little sorry for Zhang, and wanted her to have a good rest, so he didn't come to the door again immediately, he went back to the garden.

Shen Wansha was tired from tossing all morning, and some of his parents who were worried about the uneasy family made an appointment with Lu Li to call him if he had something, and turned around and went back to Shen's mansion. Helian Yu, Shen Wansha didn't let him follow, so he went back to the Honglu Pavilion and devoted all his strength to the organization of the Raiding Alien Treasure Alliance.

As for Zhao Zhu...... King Ping was very busy, and was called into the palace by the emperor again.

In the evening, Zhao Shu came back, and his steps were very brisk.

Lu Li swiped the tip of the pen in his hand, and his eyes were a little surprised, "Is there anything good?" ”

Zhao Shu didn't speak, jumped over and hugged Lu Li fiercely, very excited.

"Pen...... I'm still dipped in ink! Lu Li couldn't dodge, and angrily took a pen to scratch Zhao Shu's face.

Zhao Shu let him paint, but after Lu Li stopped, he came up with a big face, rubbing and kissing Lu Li's face.

Lu Li: ......

"Is the ink delicious?"

Zhao Shu smacked his lips and stared at Lu Li's lips, "Sweet ......"

Sweet fart! That was just now Hu Weiwei mixed honey water for him to drink!

Lu Li slapped Zhao Zhu's face to the side, "It's dirty!" ”

Is it a black face to pretend to be a boss! Bao Gong won't be so ugly in black, people's skin tone is very even, okay!

Zhao Shu touched Lu Li's face, "My daughter-in-law is so good-looking!" The face is beautiful even when it is dark! ”

Pretty yarn! Lu Li raised his foot and kicked it.

Zhao Shu clamped his legs and sandwiched Lu Li's feet between his knees, seeing that he was really angry, he sighed and hugged him tightly, "I'm very happy." ”

Lu Li: ......

So what the hell are you happy about, it's good to say it and let me hear it!

"People who are deeply related to Shou Anbo Guo Wei...... Got a clue. Zhao Shu hugged Lu Li and sighed, very satisfied.

That's really good news! Lu Li was also pleasantly surprised, "Who is it?" ”

"Privy Council Deputy Envoy Li Chang." Zhao Shu spoke slowly, telling things little by little.

When he came out of the palace, the secret guards sent new news, this Li Chang and Guo Weiming didn't seem to have any contact on the face, but they did things in each other's mansions, such as Tian Ding, Shouxi, red and white ceremonies, and the gifts were very heavy. If you really don't want to go, it's just face-saving, and it's reasonable to only go to the precious, but their etiquette is not only precious, but also very considerate, and even comprehensive, which is not normal.

After checking again, it was found that the two did not socialize in front of others, but often appeared in the same place at the same time, which was inconspicuous at the time and place, and others did not pay attention to whether they would meet or not. But it's a coincidence that this happens once or twice, and it happens all the time...... That's interesting.

The deeper things are still being investigated, and this is just a suspicion.

Despite this, Zhao Shu is also very happy, there is finally progress, isn't it?

Lu Li was also very excited when he heard it, there is a door to this matter! But - "I remember that the privy envoy was a military attachΓ©?" ”

The silver embezzlement case is mainly a civilian official, and there is no boundary between the two sides, so Li Chang has the ability to cross the line and grasp it? If he really had such ability, he would definitely not be just a privy deputy.

"Little Clever Ghost." Zhao Shu pinched Lu Li's nose, "Li Chang is a military attachΓ©, but he is a good friend of the Yantie Division, and he is familiar with the governor of Zhongshu. ”

"Oh......"

Lu Li sighed, no wonder.

The equipment of this dynasty is the middle book, the privy council, and the three divisions, which are divided into three major affairs: government, military, and finance, Li Chang is involved in military power, salt and iron division is involved in financial power, and Zhongshumen is involved in politics, this is a big relationship network! If they trust each other, haunt each other together, and cover each other, it will really be a troublemaker!

"Are you going to arrest someone, then?"

Zhao Shu shook his head, "They are all officials of the imperial court, and there is no evidence, so it is difficult to arrest them at will." "And even if they are caught, people will not cooperate, and they will startle the snake.

Lu Li understood, "Then take your time......"

Zhao Shu hugged him and kissed him hard, "Hmm." ”

While it's gratifying that things are progressing, there are still plenty of possibilities before they settle...... Lu Li reminded Zhao Zhu, "Just in case, King Su is there, don't cut off the tracking." ”

Zhao Shu paused before he smiled, "Thank you for reminding me." ”

The wise man has a thousand thoughts, but there is still a mistake, and his news is too little, and it may not be true in the end. All parties are keeping an eye on it, and they are not letting up everywhere...... The winner must be him.

"Dirty like this cat...... Zhao Shu hugged Lu Li, and Lang laughed, "This king will take you to wash your face!" ”

Lu Li angrily slapped him on the shoulder, who the hell is this harm!

……

Somehow, it was a very hot night, and it was simply uncomfortable to stay in the house. The moon is like a silver platter, and the night is beautiful.

washed his face and changed his clothes, and even ate some supper, time to crawl away little by little, Lu Li still didn't feel sleepy at all...... No other ideas. He slapped away Zhao Zhu, who had come over several times to play hooligans, with a black face.

"What's the matter, baby, don't want to sleep yet?" Zhao Shu didn't understand what it meant to stop at all, and continued to lean forward with his face on his face.

Lu Li stretched out his hand against his face, "I have something in my heart, I don't want to sleep." ”

"What's the matter? Is that the kind of thing? Zhao Shu licked his palm, smiling evilly, "Don't worry, I will make you comfortable......"

"Phew! Case! I'm thinking about the case! Lu Li glared at Zhao Zhu, don't make trouble obediently!

Zhao Shu pinched his face, "It's night, can you think about it tomorrow?" ”

"Not good!" Lu Li slapped his hand away, looked at the big moon outside, and suddenly had an idea, "Shall we go out?" ”

"Where to go?"

"Live." Lu Li's eyes were full of moonlight, clear and bright, "Let's go to the scene and see if we can find any clues." ”

Zhao Shu was a little unhappy, why not enjoy such a wonderful night? But he prides himself on being the most considerate husband......

He pointed to his mouth, "Kiss it." ”

Lu Li smiled and leaned over and let out a very loud 'pop'.

Zhao Shu was satisfied, patted Lu Li's buttocks and made him turn around, grabbed him with a big hand, hugged him, and jumped out directly along the window - "Let's go!" ”
