Chapter 117: Emperor Wenjia
The stars flashed slightly in the beautiful eyes of the female swordsman, but she said indifferently: "No." We only have the Book of Feihong, which pours out our thoughts and loves, so do we want to show you this too? ”
"You're mistaken." Qin Mubai said: "I suspect that Zhu Chengwen secretly hid an important account book before his death, which recorded the income and expenditure of a lot of money and goods, including some corrupt officials and corrupt officials. There is a good chance that the murderer is among those people. Therefore, it is important to find the murderer's book. If you have one, you may wish to bring it to me. ”
"Nope." The female swordsman spit out the word lightly and said lightly: "If there is, do I still need to squat here?" I must have gone straight to someone for revenge. ”
"Alright then!" Qin Mubai nodded and said, "Today, you hurt my two subordinates, but I don't care about you anymore." Hello, let's leave it at that. If you have any clues, you can come to me in the Fubing Juntun in Jishan County, Jiangzhou. Report my name and I will naturally let you in-Qin Mubai. ”
Hearing this, the Women's Sword Pavilion moved slightly: "You said your name is Qin Mubai?" ”
"Doesn't the girl know what?" Qin Mubai said with a little surprise.
"Just met." The female swordsman's beautiful eyes wandered, she glanced at Qin Mubai up and down, and immediately turned her head again, and said indifferently: "I have seen your name in a letter with my husband, saying that you are a first-class romantic figure in Chang'an, and now a big celebrity in front of the emperor." My husband loves calligraphy and music, and is very interested in the pipa skills that are popular in Chang'an, so he mentioned that you are today's 'grandmaster', and if you have the opportunity to go to Chang'an, I would like to visit you. I didn't expect to see you here today, and you're still here to pay tribute to your husband. If he has knowledge under the spring......"
Qin Mubai nodded and asked after a little thought, "Then did your husband mention the person 'Liao Lirong' in his correspondence with you?" ”
Hearing this, the female sword pavilion turned around and looked at Qin Mubai: "Yes!" He is a colleague of his husband, and he is also his only confidant and friend in Jishan. The two of them were both born poor, and they were both from the same list, and they went to Jishan County as officials at the same time. In addition, calligraphy and quyi are also officials in the same yamen, so they are very like-minded. Get along with each other in the morning and evening, and go in and out together, just like biological brothers. The husband mentioned more than once in the letter that although he was in a foreign land, he had relatives and brothers. During the Chinese New Year, Liao Lirong will also send gifts to his husband's children, and he is very close to the cold and warmth in the letters. ”
"Hey......" Qin Mubai sighed and shook his head.
"Why sigh?" The female swordsman said suspiciously, "Could it be that the death of the husband is related to Liao Lirong?" After I came to Jixian County, there was a flood here, and the county seat of Jishan County was a depression. I wanted to find Liao Lirong first, but I couldn't find it. Where is he now? ”
"I'm holding you." The corners of Qin Mubai's mouth curled slightly, outlining an arc full of ridicule and disdain, and said: "As expected, Zhu Chengwen's death, Liao Lirong is the most direct murderer. ”
"What?!" The female swordsman suddenly rebuked in shock: "This is impossible! He is the only friend of his husband in a foreign land, and the two live together in the county office, depend on each other for their lives, and wear each other's clothes and pants together, just like brothers! ”
"You'd better accept that fact." Qin Mubai shook his head and sighed: "When you meet someone who is not ladylike, and you accidentally make friends, Zhu Chengwen is really a tragic character." Although I have never met him, from the investigation and your dictation in the past few days, it is not difficult for me to understand that he is at least a person who abides by his duties and is quite disciplined, even if he is not a Qingtian parent official, and it is unlikely that he is a treacherous person. But it's a pity that in the end, it was the most trusted and only friend who killed him! ”
"I still don't believe it!" The female swordsman seemed to grit her teeth a little, and snorted coldly: "Unless I see Liao Lirong and hear it with my own ears, admit this!" ”
"Let's go!" Qin Mubai chuckled disappreciatively, "Just by the way." ”
The female swordsman held the sword in both hands and bowed her head, and was silent for a moment, as if she was thinking, and whispered: "Why should I believe you?" ”
"Of course you can not believe it." Qin Mubai pursed his lips and beckoned to the other two pawns: "Let's go." ”
"Stop!" The female swordsman reprimanded, and her ghost-like figure flickered in front of Qin Mubai, looking at him with a pair of starry eyes, as if she wanted to pierce him with her eyes.
"I'll go with you!"
"Feel free." Qin Mubai smiled slightly, walked around her side, and walked forward. The two pawns clasped their shoulders, which were still bleeding, and glared at her with hostile anger, and hurried to follow.
The three of them walked in front together, and the female sword pavilion was unhurried, and followed five or six steps behind. A pawn said, "General, this woman is too fierce and her origin is unknown. That's how we took her...... Is it really? ”
"I have my own sense of proportion, and I don't need to say much." After Qin Mubai finished speaking, he didn't say anything, and although the two pawns were angry with the woman, they didn't dare to say more.
The group came to the carriage and watched the carriage here The pawn who watched the carriage was surprised and said, "Hey, why are you two injured?" …… And an extra woman in black? ”
"It's a female ghost!" Xiao Jia snorted in annoyance and scolded.
"Shut up!" Qin Mubai reprimanded: "If your skills are not as good as others, you have to accept your fate." Who told you not to practice well? ”
"Yes......" Pawn A lowered his head and said no more.
The female swordsman stepped forward, glanced at the four people present, took out a bottle of medicine and threw it to the pawn: "Apply it yourself." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, no need." Pawn Jia threw the medicine bottle back to her, and said stupidly, "We have our own." ”
"Oh, I forgot." The female swordsman put away the medicine bottle, laughed and said: "General Qin Mubai's subordinates are all dignified royal rates, and they are all children of the Shi family, of course, they are all good things, how can they look down on inferior products like ours." ”
"I'm too lazy to tell you, otherwise the general will curse again." The pawn glared at her angrily and stopped talking.
The female swordsman sneered: "I have heard for a long time that the name of a hundred horsemen is known as a hundred people, and everyone can fight against a hundred, but I didn't expect it to be so." The skills are not as good as others, and they are still unwilling to be convinced if they lose. It seems that it is also in vain! ”
"You! ......" The three pawns were angry at the same time, hating that they couldn't swallow this arrogant woman alive. The hundred horsemen have never eaten this kind of turtle in front of anyone since they were formed, so it's no wonder they are so angry.
Qin Mubai Wan'er smiled: "Girl, your martial arts are very powerful, maybe even I can't beat you." But rushing to kill in front of the battle, with a small victory over more than 10,000 troops, and taking the enemy's general level in the bush, such as probing the bag and taking things, can you? The ruler is short, and the inch is long. At that time, a hundred girls may not be more effective than a hundred horsemen. ”
"Poor mouth!" The female swordsman snorted coldly, ignored the four men, twisted their delicate bodies, and went straight to the car, and sat in the hall with dignity.
"Huh! This savage little is so unreasonable! The three pawns were a little annoyed, "The general hasn't boarded the car yet, but she's gone in first!" ”
"The children of the rivers and lakes don't have to make a fuss." Qin Mubai smiled disapprerovingly, "Get on the bus and go!" ”
"I don't want to sit in the same car with this barbarian girl, we don't have the same heart as the general, and we will get angry when we see her!" The two pawns who had been injured by her before angrily unloaded a horse from the carriage and rode down. Another person drove the car, and Qin Mubai and the female sword pavilion sat in the carriage together.
The carriage swayed, and a pine oil lamp was lit in the carriage, and it was dim and invisible.
The female swordsman was dressed in black clothes, black cloak, and still did not take off the black gauze palace brimmed hat on her head, which looked quite mysterious under the dim light. Vaguely, I could only see her starry eyes, the sparkle of her soul, and the palm of her sword, which was as white as jade, and her ten fingers were as green as green onions, and she didn't look like a rough person who practiced knives and guns all day long.
"Girl, your surname? Or I don't know what to call you? Qin Mubai asked.
"There is no need to call a married girl."
"What is the lady's name?"
"Am I old?" The female swordsman's voice revealed a hint of sorrow, "Although I have promised to marry, I have not passed the door." Although she is a mother, she has not left the boudoir. ”
"You're really funny, do you like to rap words?" Qin Mubai couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm too lazy to ask, I'll call you a black girl in the future, anyway, you like to wear black clothes." ”
The female swordsman glanced at Qin Mubai and said as neatly and a little coldly, "My mother's surname is Chen Mingyan, and my husband will give me the word Shuozhen." ”
"Chen Yan, Chen Shuozhen......" Qin Mubai nodded silently, and suddenly his heart trembled in surprise, and he looked at this woman with wide eyes!
Chen Shuozhen?!
What a familiar name!
Qin Mubai once remembered that in the 21st century, he once traveled to Hangzhou and was invited to play at a friend's house in Chun'an County. I have seen two special landscapes there - Tianzi Ji and Wannian Tower.
According to legend, in the early years of Yonghui in the Tang Dynasty, there was a unique female peasant rebel leader in history, named Chen Shuozhen! These two historical landscapes are what she left behind!
Stories about her are widely circulated locally. It is said that that year, Chen Shuozhen's hometown Qingxi area exploded in a flood that had not been seen in a century, but the government refused to open a warehouse to release grain, and still collected various taxes, causing the people to live in poverty, starvation, and death. Chen Shuozhen was already well-known at that time, so he used the appeal of religion to take the lead in "making a revolution", and soon pulled the mountain to make an uprising, and seriously raised tens of thousands of horses, and quickly captured one or two county seats, and established his own regime, known as "Emperor Wenjia".
Although this small-scale uprising failed in just over a month, and she was also arrested and ambushed, this feat can be said to be unprecedented and unprecedented. In Chinese history, there are countless women who participated in the peasant uprising, but there are very few women who are leaders like the morning star, and Chen Shuozhen is the only woman who is the leader and is also known as the emperor!
When she was "emperor", Wu Zetian was only thirty years old, and she had just been taken back to the palace by Li Zhi from Ganye Temple, and not long after, even the queen had not yet become the queen. Therefore, there is no shortage of people who "firmly" believe that Chen Shuozhen is the first female emperor in Chinese history!
"Miss Chen's ancestral home is in Muzhou?" Qin Mubai asked to avoid the same name in order to confirm his guess.
Chen Yan laughed when she heard this: "Jianghuai's accent is strong, and you know it when you hear it, so why ask?" ”
"I have an old acquaintance, and I am also from Muzhou, and my hometown seems to be called 'Qingxi'." Qin Mubai said casually.
"What's your name?" Chen Yan asked with some curiosity.
"Zhang Daniu." Qin Mubai casually said a name.
"I don't know." Chen Yan coldly threw down the three words, turned her face away, hugged the sword, closed her eyes and ignored Qin Mubai.
"Really!" Qin Mubai couldn't help but stir her brows in surprise: looking at her current fierce temperament, with a bit of rebellion, there is no fear of ordinary people for the government and officials, plus a strong and terrifying martial arts, it is not difficult to understand why she dared to take risks to "rebel and make a revolution" later.
