When it comes to the gentry of Rizhao, it is impossible not to mention a family.

Ding family, Rizhao Ding family. Father and son two scholars, three generations and five fame, are definitely famous in the local area.

Since the elder Ding He, the Ding family has stepped into the threshold of the local gentry. And when his son Ding Yunyuan Chongzhen entered high school for four years, the Ding family went to the next level, not to mention that Ding Yunyuan has been prosperous since he entered the official career, and within a few years, he has become a noble science and Taoist official-In the matter of the household department, the Ding family is not just like the sun in the sky, and the sun shines on the head of the cow.

By the time Ding Yunyuan's eldest son Ding Tai was raised in high school at a young age, the Ding family was not only in Rizhao, but the entire Qingzhou was a famous family.

Lao Tzu is powerful, and his son is also powerful, this is a successor.

In addition, Ding Yunyuan's second son Ding Jing and younger brother Ding Yundeng are also Gongsheng (those with excellent grades or qualifications in the prefecture, prefecture, and county students, and who are promoted to study in the Jingshi Guozijian and are called Gongsheng), the entire Ding family is really not prosperous. There are successors to those who have won fame, which gives people a feeling of endless success.

Now Ding Yunyuan is still serving in Nanming, and he is the prefect of Suzhou.

Ding Tai, Ding Jing and others all went south, but his younger brother Ding Yundeng stayed in his hometown, one for the ancestral memorial, and the other for the Ding family's property. When Rizhao changed hands and the lawsuit changed, the people also made up for the position of county leader.

With the Manchu Qing Dynasty gaining a firm foothold in Beizhili, Qilu and other places, there were fewer and fewer things that showed talents to be officials in the past.

Ding Yundeng was able to be a county governor, which was mostly due to the influence of the Ding family in the local area.

But now, Ding Yundeng is sitting on wax.

The shouting and killing outside was getting closer and closer, and Ding Yundeng made people climb down the courtyard wall to look, already knowing the loss of sunshine, and he was so worried in his heart. Although his eldest brother is still an official of the Ming Dynasty, he is already an official of the Qing Dynasty, and the person who killed him is Zheng Jun, a soldier who is a little different from other Ming troops, who dares to guarantee that the Zheng family will buy his brother a face?

If you take yourself ......, then you really make the heavens and the earth not spiritual.

However, what you are afraid of will come.

Ding Yundeng, who was in a hurry in the hall, hadn't come up with a trick yet, when he suddenly heard a cry in the vestibule, stood up in shock, and then saw a few people crawling out of the second gate, wasn't it the home's nursing home.

"The second master is not good, it is not good, Zheng Jun is in......"

The first one of them cried and cried like a dead mother-in-law.

Ding Yundeng only felt that his legs were weak, and the whole person fell into the chair again.

When a team officer walked into the hall with a big sting, his legs were still as weak as noodles, and he couldn't even stand, but he still wanted to lick his face to please the visitor.

The officer glanced at him disdainfully: "Don't play tricks on me, Lao Tzu is coming to the door now to raid his house." Ding Yundeng, you are famous for the Ming Emperor, but when you are in danger, you don't want to repay the country and be loyal to the monarch, in order to serve the grace of the Ming Dynasty for many years, but instead accept a false position, betray the country and surrender to the Qing Dynasty, which is really shameless. Impunity is not enough to warn the world. ”

"Come, take him down and send him to the governor. The rest of the people all showed me that they dared to resist and killed! ”

After saying that, the two soldiers behind him pounced and twisted Ding Yundeng. There were still a few nursing servants on the latter's side, but now they were as stiff as wooden clay sculptures, and they didn't dare to stop them at all, let alone anyone to stop them.

Ding Yundeng's people were dragged out of the gate of Ding's house, and they were blown by the wind outside, and they came back to their senses. Turning his head to look at the Ding Mansion behind him, he sighed.

"Plead guilty, student plead guilty."

In front of Jiang Zhe, Ding Yundeng happily admitted that he was guilty. He thought that when he was dragged out of the house along the way, and that none of the servants in the house who had been gracious to him for many years dared to shout, then he suddenly understood the hatred of the traitor.

Isn't that damned?

"Heh~" Jiang Zhe couldn't help laughing, this confession attitude is really good. No wonder the Tartar stammered as soon as he came, it was too boneless.

"Then you can tell me about the rich gentry in Rizhao, whose family deserves the most and whose family deserves the least death."

Encountering a soft bone worm, Jiang Zhe shouldn't squeeze it fiercely.

Ding Yundeng understood the meaning of Jiang Zhe's words, and he didn't hide it, and poured out everything he knew.

"Do you understand? According to the map, they all mentioned to me one by one. ”

Glancing at the entourage beside him, Jiang Zhe had a smile on his face.

"Okay, tell me more. When did the place of Rizhao hook up with the south? What kind of work are you doing? ”

The previous episode at sea turned into a thorn when the sunshine was going on smoothly, and Jiang Zhe was like a fish in his throat.

Ding Yundeng was dumbfounded, "What does the general mean?" "Why can't he understand?

Jiang Zhe smiled coldly, reached out and grabbed Ding Yundeng's collar, "It's quite similar." I'm afraid you don't know that Lao Tzu has intercepted the small sand boat in the sea off Shijiu Island. ”

If it weren't for the Rizhao County Order's fast run, Jiang Zhe would have pried the county order's mouth a long time ago.

"The general has wronged the students. You see that I have sold all the sages in the township, how can I hide it? The students really don't understand what the general said. ”

What a stone mortar island village, what a small sand boat, he really didn't know what Jiang Zhe was talking about.

"The manager intercepted a small sand boat in the sea off Shijiu Island, there are more than ten young and strong people, more than ten cardamom beauties, and when he sees the manager, he is like a mouse seeing a cat, he turns around and runs, and if he can't run away, he will kill all the women, and he will kill all the knives. Who are they, what are the ideas, you really don't know as a landlord? ”

"I don't know, the students really don't know." Ding Yundeng was about to cry, twenty or thirty human lives are nothing in this world today, but such a way of dying made him think of the dead, there is very likely that there is a conspiracy in the middle, and it is a big conspiracy.

Dead soldiers are not something that can be cultivated casually.

But he really didn't hear a trace of the wind, "It's ...... the general who wronged the students."

Jiang Zhe frowned tightly, this Ding Yundeng may really not know, otherwise it would be all up to this, and it would be meaningless for him to continue to hide it.

My heart sank.

This Ding family is the existence of the Rizhao gentry, and Ding Yundeng has become the county leader of the county. As a result, I didn't know anything about the small sand boat......

All the evidence shows that this 'small sand boat' is definitely a big material. hateful called the county order that the dog official ran away.

Thinking about the small sand boat again and again, Jiang Zhe also thought of the word 'dead man'.

Life is precious, but ants still steal life, let alone people?

Whether it is the only death that is difficult through the ages, or whether it is better to die than to live, it all shows people's thirst for life.

This shot is more than a dozen dead soldiers, which is an absolute big deal.

Maybe when I came to Rizhao this time, the biggest gain was not to lay down Rizhao County, so that the officials and gentry were afraid to come one by one; Instead, they hit the small sand boat at sea and hit the corpses.

"Boss ......"

The shouts of the entourage woke Jiang Zhe from his inner contemplation.

"The body has already been examined."

"Tell them to come forward."

Jiang Zhe wanted to ask in person.

So, the three servants of Rizhao County came forward, and they were not afraid. They are craftsmen, and they eat with their skills, regardless of the Ming and Qing dynasties, they must be rewarded with a mouthful of food.

Zhu Ming stipulated: There are three in Dazhou County, two in Zhongzhou County, and one in Xiaozhou County. One or two more students are still recruited, so that they can follow and learn and prepare for the top. Each gave a copy of the "Record of Clearing Grievances", and the election committee understood a criminal book, and explained it in detail one by one, so that Xiaochang was familiar with it and made no mistake on the spot. The state and county soap subordinates were cut off a number of people, and their work and food were allocated separately to support them.

Therefore, the status of this work is not high, it is all held by low-status untouchables, and the son of the work is not allowed to participate in the imperial examination. But the government still values it very much. After all, human life is at stake. The ability of these pretentious works is closely related to the murder cases that broke out in the county and state capital.

"The little ones have seen the Steward."

"No need to be polite. Tell me about it, what have you found? Jiang Zhe said as he took a file, this is the current autopsy report.

The three of them looked at each other, and finally the oldest person replied. "Chief, the little ones have examined the scars on the bodies of those young and strong men, the calluses on their hands and feet, thighs, shoulders, and teeth, and they can be sure that there are ten of them who are strong soldiers in the army, or have withdrawn from the army, but they are still the guards of the generals, and they have been wearing armor all the time, and they have been riding horses for a long time, and they have never left their swords and bows."

The marks on the bodies of these individuals are obvious, the scars on the bodies, the calluses on the hands, the marks on the inner thighs and shoulders, all of which testify to their occupation. What's more, just by looking at their teeth, you can know that these people often eat meat and drink alcohol, and they are not close followers of generals in the army, how can they be treated so well?

"What about the others?"

Jiang Zhe remembered that there were more than ten young and strong male corpses.

"The other six are more people from the city, and although they have scars on their bodies, they are completely different from the scars of the army. And the body is generally shorter than the other ten people. He doesn't ride horses often, and he doesn't wear armor. ”

Jiang Zhe closed his eyes, and the matter seemed to be more complicated.

A dozen men were divided into two groups, on one side was the personal guard of the general in the army, which was easy to find in the Northland; And what about the other one? I'm afraid it's mostly confidants sent by the people who answered from the south.

"What about the woman?"

The old man also frowned, "There are also a lot of suspicions in these women. The most important thing is that they did not run away when they were killed, let alone resist. "You just have to look at their hair, one by one, like fish on the board, waiting for the knife to fall.

"Go and get me the people who came into the cabin." Jiang Zhe pressed his eyebrows. It's complicated.

Whether there was anyone who resisted when the woman was killed can be seen at a glance, and there is chaos in the cabin, just ask someone to ask.

As for what the old man said, these cardamom girls all seem to be from rich and noble families, not only do they have no scars on their bodies, but they don't even have traces of rough work, but they all seem to have learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Is that another practice of calligraphy and piano, and you can still see it......
