This scream was like cold water dripping into the oil pot, and with a bang, the entire brothel exploded. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Disheveled men rushed out of the upper rooms, and the women poked their heads out to see the commotion.

The faint-hearted continued to scream, and the bold approached to look.

The prostitutes have no master, Liu Tong patted Chang Runzhi's hand, took two steps forward to look, squatted down and reached out to probe his snort, and after a while, he turned back and shook his head at King Rui and said, "I'm out of breath." ”

"Lord Wang......" Chang Muzhi is a woman from the world, and she has never used the dirty methods in the house, and it must be the first time to see someone die in front of him like this, and she can't help but tremble.

King Rui pinched her hand and hugged her in his arms, comforted her for a few words, and then looked at the woman who persuaded them to leave, and said in a deep voice: "Don't report to the official yet?" ”

"Newspaper, newspaper?"

The woman's eyes widened, and King Rui bowed her head and said, "If someone died, do you brothel dare to hide it?" ”

"Don't dare, of course you don't dare!"

The woman waved her hand hurriedly, and then she came to her senses and immediately went to find the bustard in the building.

Because it was a dead person, few people around the dead people dared to approach, but they didn't destroy the scene too much.

King Rui looked up at the place where the man had flown out on the second floor, and raised his chin at the top.

Liu Tong understood, picked up the edge of his robe, and ran up quickly.

When he walked to the center of the stairs, he remembered that Chang Runzhi was still there, and suddenly stopped and turned back.

Chang Runzhi smiled at him, fanned his hand outward, and said that he should hurry up.

Liu Tong smiled heartily, and then continued to run upstairs.

King Rui looked sideways at Chang Runzhi and said, "The ninth brother is busy with business, and he can't take care of you, don't blame him for the ninth brother and sister." ”

Chang Runzhi shook his head and said, "No." ”

She paused and hesitated: "However, if there is a murder case, wouldn't it be bad to stay here?" ”

King Rui nodded and said, "When the ninth brother comes down, we will leave." ”

Liu Tong came down quickly, his face was a little solemn, and his steps were fast.

"Fifth brother," he said in a deep voice, "there is another dead man in the upstairs room. ”

Rui Wang was stunned: "It's gone?" ”

"It's gone."

"What's missing?" Chang Muzhi exclaimed: "What about the murderer? ”

Liu Tong shook his head.

Chang Runzhi said softly: "Either the person downstairs had a dispute with the person upstairs and ended up together." Either that, there was a third person, killed two people, and ran away. ”

"Just ask the bustard and you'll know." Rui Wang Road.

The woman who went to look for the bustard was hurriedly running out of the building, passing by Rui Wang and the others, and hurriedly said, "Mom asked me to find someone to report to the official-"

"Wait a minute!" Liu Tong stopped her and said, "There is a dead man in that room upstairs. ”

"What?!" The woman was shocked.

Liu Tong continued to ask, "Who ordered that room?" ”

The woman shook her head and said that she didn't know, Liu Tong could only ask her to find someone to report to the official first.

"I'm afraid it's complicated."

Liu Tong whispered to King Rui: "The person downstairs saw that he fell down and died, whether it was until he saw it or not, but the person upstairs ......."

"How's that guy upstairs?" Rui Wang asked.

Liu Tong pursed his lips, leaned close to King Rui's ear, and whispered a few words.

King Rui's eyes widened suddenly: "Is this true?" ”

Liu Tong shook his head.

King Rui thought for a moment and said, "In this case, there must have been a third person present at that time......

"I think so too, but if you can run away in such a short time, this person must have some ability."

Liu Tong glanced upstairs, and at this moment, the people in the brothel also found that they didn't know that someone fell downstairs and died, and even upstairs died.

Suddenly it was louder.

"Fifth brother, should we go first?" Liu Tong asked.

King Rui bowed his head and said, "Let's go first, someone from Jingzhao Mansion will come in a while." ”

The four of Rui Wang should have left the brothel.

It was only a moment before the news of a death in the brothel had already spread outside the building.

The common people who had just left with the lion dance team flocked to the brothel, and there were circles of people around the brothel.

They didn't rush in, they just stood outside the brothel, tiptoeing in, talking and talking, just waiting for Jing Zhaoyin to bring someone to get the murderer, but it happened to block the way of the person who was leaving.

Rui Wang and Liu Tong each brought only one entourage, Rui Wang brought Yan Qing, and Liu Tong brought Hua Ze. There were four men in total, and there was no way to squeeze out the ever-increasing number of people.

After a stalemate for a long time, Rui Wang and the others had no choice but to return to the brothel.

"Forget it, wait for Jing Zhaoyin to bring someone to disperse the crowd, let's go again." Rui Wang said helplessly.

Liu Tong smiled: "I hope that old man Jing Zhaoyin can move faster." But I think it's time for him to burn his eyebrows when he gets a report of the crime. ”

In the 100 years since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, of course there have been murder cases. Although the common people cannot reach the level of "not leaving the road behind and not closing the door at night", on the whole, under the governance of several generations of kings, the common people still live and work in peace and contentment.

Every year before the autumn harvest, the Criminal Department examines the cases reported from various places, and also counts the number of people who have been sentenced to beheading.

The number of people executed each year never exceeded 300.

At most, there were only two hundred and fourteen; At the very least, there were only 72 death sentences a year.

Since the decision of Wei Gaozu to formulate the "Great Wei Law", each law will be discussed and discussed by several law-making officials, and finally an agreement will be reached and reported to the emperor for judgment.

At that time, the world was initially decided, and it was necessary to recuperate, and Wei Gaozu advocated "benevolence and filial piety", which was not a crime of great treachery and evil, and it was not recommended to be punished with the death penalty.

Therefore, the first article of the opening chapter of "The Law of the Great Wei" reads: When the deceased, the case is heard, the death cannot be resurrected, the prison officials cannot be leveled, the prison is all presented, and the emperor comes to ask, no different words and complaints are absolute. The great opening of all prefectures and prefectures is reported first, and then decided.

And the crime of homicide is one of the crimes of great rape and evil.

What's more, it's still two lives.

There is a murder case at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and of course it will receive great attention from the top. When encountering this kind of thing, Jing Zhaoyin is also pitiful.

In the assessment of the officials, he will definitely not get the best grade.

Jing Zhao Yin came quickly, and with a team of Jingzhao Mansion guards, the entire brothel was surrounded.

The old bustard stepped forward with a flattering smile on his face and said, "The government official ...... old man."

Jing Zhaoyin looked in his fifties, with gray hair, but he was quite tall, his waist was straight, and his eyes were sharp.

He interrupted the bustard's words and asked directly, "I heard that two people died?" ”

"Yes, yes......" the bustard nodded hurriedly.

The head catcher had isolated the upstairs and downstairs from anyone to approach, and the man with a face towel followed upstairs to conduct a preliminary inquest of the body.

The people below were doing things, and Jing Zhaoyin was asking the bustard.

"Do you know the two dead?"

"Little acquaintance...... "The old bustard replied honestly, "they are from Aoyagikan." ”

"What kind of place is Aoyagikan?"

"Yes......" The old bustard seemed a little jealous, but still whispered: "It's the Kokukan, and they are the little ...... of the Aoyagikan" (to be continued.) )
