Chapter Ninety-Nine: Zhou Gong Fears the Day of Rumors

Recently, news has begun to circulate in Kaifeng Prefecture that ghosts are rampant in strange buildings outside the West Water Gate in Tokyo, and the cries of female ghosts are often heard. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Liu San, the head of Kaifeng Mansion, was stopped by someone while on patrol, and the old man in the city asked him to take someone to see the situation.

Liu San explained helplessly: "Mr. Zhang, it's not that I don't want to go, I went, there is the workshop of the Cai family's ready-to-wear shop, and all the little ladies are hired in it, how can you let me go again?" ā€

"What?! Hire a little lady to make clothes? Whose little lady can show her work? And what's going on with that chirping ghost's scream! You Liu San grew up watching me, don't lie to me! ā€

"Hey! Look at my mouth, I didn't make it clear to your old man, it's not a little lady, it's a widow! ā€

Mr. Zhang nodded after listening to his words: "Oh, it turned out to be a widow, this is about the same, our little ladies in Tokyo City rarely go to the workshop to be helpers, and only those widows who cross the sea are suitable for this, and they are evil, and I don't know who said that there were demons in the workshop, so scared that the people of Xishuimen did not dare to let their children go to private school, and they were locked at home every day, how can this be done?" ā€

Liu San patted his chest and said: "This is easy, your old man said that I will give you a guarantee, if you agree to me, I will go and bang the gong!" ā€

"What a gong! Don't dare now! Mr. Zhang immediately changed his face and hurriedly grabbed Liu San and said: "Don't you dare, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was wronged before because someone knocked the gong and said this, and now I don't dare to make trouble for His Highness anymore!" ā€

Liu San said strangely: "Someone is knocking on the gong in the name of the government to tell the matter? It's really the opposite! ā€

In the face of Liu San's anger, Mr. Zhang sighed: "Who says it's not, now Tokyo is in chaos, rumors are continuous, some time ago someone mentioned the old things of Taizong, no, there have been more things about the prince's rebellion recently, how can this be good, how can a dutiful son like the prince make a big rebellion?" I was about to come forward and theorize, and the man ran away! ā€

"It must be a thief!" "Needless to say!" "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is famous for his benevolence and filial piety, and when the prince died, he personally supported the coffin! I've seen it with my own eyes! ā€

Facing more and more people around him, Liu San said: "That's right, this is a trick of the gangsters, you must not fall for his evil, I won't ring the gong to tell the story, but you want to help me spread the word, the prince is filial ~!" ā€

After saying this, he left in a hurry, he felt that something was wrong with the head of the team in Kaifeng Mansion for many years, the matter of Taizong that had been circulated before, and the matter of the prince that had been circulated recently, were faintly pointed to His Royal Highness the Prince, if the Liao people did it, it would be too blatant, and the first person to report to himself was Yelujia, the treasurer of the Liao State who was high in Gaoyang Zhengdian!

In his words: "This rumor has nothing to do with my Liao Dynasty, I heard that it came from my Gaoyang Zhengdian and the Liao Dynasty Duting Station, this is absolutely necessary to find out, my Liao Dynasty is not willing to carry the black pot for others!" ā€

Liu San has been in the market for many years, and he is very good at judging people, and when he saw Yelujia's expression, he roughly guessed that this matter should have nothing to do with the Liao people.

Now there are many rumors about the prince's rebellion, this thing has a nose and eyes, and it is even more impossible for the Liao people to find out, what is the forbidden place? Ministers can't come and go casually!

Liu San has been a team leader in Tokyo for some years, and has solved many cases, and the method he uses is very simple, if everything points to the prince, then the recent rumors about the workshop outside the West Water Gate also point to the prince...... Liu San shuddered, this workshop was built by the prince's companion Cai Boyu! Now that ghosts are rampant in the workshop, does this also want to be blamed on the prince?

Thinking of this, Liu San couldn't help but hurriedly run towards Kaifeng Mansion, he had a premonition that something was a big deal!

Ma Yuanfang's face became very ugly after listening to Liu San's speculation, although he is straight, it doesn't mean that he has no brains, after Liu San's reminder, if you associate everything with the prince, you can see that you are suspicious, this is someone deliberately smearing the prince!

"Shaft dares?!" Ma Yuanfang shouted angrily when he took the case: "The old man wants to face the saint and personally share it with the officials!" ā€

Liu San reminded in a low voice: "These are all speculations, there is no evidence!" ā€

"No evidence? Can't see it yet? People won't let you have evidence, this is the witch curse of the Han Dynasty! Ma Yuanfang's eyes were bloodshot, and his hair was wide open.

Thinking of the witch curse, even a resolute person like Ma Yuanfang couldn't help but shudder, the cause of the witch curse in the Han Dynasty was a trivial matter, Gongsun Jingsheng, the son of Prime Minister Gongsun He, was accused of witch Gu curse Emperor Wu, Emperor Wu's favorite minister Jiang Chong was ordered to investigate the witch Gu case, and used torture and planting to force people to confess, and the ministers and the people were frightened and arbitrarily accused others of committing crimes, and tens of thousands of people died as a result.

The most terrifying thing is that Jiang Chong and the crown prince Liu have a gap, so he took the opportunity to frame the prince, and with the case Hou Han Shuo, the eunuch Su Wen and other four people framed the prince, the prince was afraid, raised troops to kill Jiang Chong, and was later suppressed by Emperor Wu and defeated, and the queen Wei Zifu and the prince Liu Yi committed suicide one after another.

How similar is the current situation to the scourge of witchcraft? There was a ghostly cry from the workshop established by the prince's companion reading, which was to accuse the prince of feeding ghosts and practicing witchcraft! As long as someone with a heart slanders the official, the Great Song Dynasty will stage the scourge of witchcraft again!

Just after the previous palace change, there were rumors in Tokyo that slandered the prince and plotted rebellion, and the trivial things that seemed to be misunderstood by the people would become the last straw that broke the camel's back if they were used by those who had a heart!

Ma Yuanfang didn't dare to imagine the consequences, Zhou Gong was afraid of rumors, and what he said was not wrong at all!

At this time, the official family of the Great Song Dynasty asked Li Di, the prime minister: "Zhou Huaizheng conspired against his desire to establish the prince as the emperor, isn't this the same as the end of the Tang Dynasty?" Could it be that I am that Tang Shunzong! ā€

Although Zhao Heng didn't say it explicitly, he pointed to the prince inside and outside the words, Li Di's expression changed greatly, Tang Shunzong was forced to abdicate by the eunuch Ju Wenzhen, and passed the throne to the crown prince Li Chun, claiming to be the emperor, and the official family obviously wanted to offend the prince!

Li Di's nervous body trembled and said, "The official family can't blame the prince!" At first, it was the crown prince who warned Chen Lin that Zhou Huaizheng wanted to plot rebellion, and then he didn't see a drop of blood to win the rebel king power of the Imperial City Division, how could he doubt the loyalty and filial piety of His Royal Highness the prince? ā€

Obviously, Zhao Heng was moved by his words, and Li Di hit the railroad while it was hot: "How many sons does Your Majesty have, do you want to plan for this?" ā€

Zhao Heng looked at the high caisson in the palace and said: "Concubine Yang Xian once said to me that it is rumored that the prince's companion Cai Boyu has built a strange workshop outside the West Water Gate to do some ready-to-wear business, and the ready-to-wear style is so charming, and there is a woman's ghostly voice, what is the explanation for this?" ā€

Li Di was speechless for a while, he didn't know about this matter at all, so he could only argue: "This matter is just a rumor, not that Concubine Yang Xian saw it herself, how can it be blamed on the prince?" ā€

I don't know why Zhao Heng suddenly roared angrily: "Do you want to do witch things?!" ā€
