Jianchang Bo Mansion. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In the afternoon, Zhang Yanling got up from a nap, and just went to the front hall to drink tea and prepare to go out, when he saw Jiang Chong, the foreman of the nursing home in the house, hurriedly coming in, and said without even saying hello: "Sir, it's not good, the prison of the Criminal Department caught fire last night, and some people died." ”

When Zhang Yanling heard "Oh no", he instinctively thought that something was wrong in the palace, and when he learned that it was a fire in the prison of the Criminal Department, he shouted with a little annoyance: "What a fuss, what happened to Guan Benjue when those criminals died?" I don't have the strength to see it, and this little thing can be used to communicate with Benjue? ”

"Sir, among the people who died in the prison of the Criminal Department last night, including Lu Sun, the big boss of the Fujian Chamber of Commerce, the corpse has been burned to the point of not being human!" Jiang Chong said anxiously.

"Smack!"

Zhang Yanling slapped the lid of the tea bowl on the coffee table and shouted angrily, "I just asked the Criminal Department to take care of it before, and when you turn around, you will give me this fire?" Fuck ...... Have you sent someone to check? ”

"Back to the lord, the little one just went to the Criminal Department to ask, the fire that started when he intersected with Zishi last night, this day was dry and dry, and the fire was very big, although the Criminal Department used a large number of people to extinguish the fire, but there were not enough water tanks to store water, and Lu Sun's prison number was in the innermost, so it was too late to rescue."

Jiang Chong said with a little grievance, "The corpse is placed there, and even the people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei have gone, and they are investigating the cause of the fire and verifying the exact identity of the deceased!" ”

Zhang Yanling was furious: "Go, come with me to the Criminal Department!" I don't believe that things are so coincidental, and they don't catch fire at other times, but as soon as I explain it to the others, this side is on fire. If the people in the Criminal Department dare to make ghosts, see how I clean them up! ”

Zhang Yanling didn't believe in the accidental fire, he hurried to the yamen of the Three Law Divisions, and as soon as he arrived at the lobby of the Criminal Department, he saw Min Gui, the secretary of the Criminal Department, who had a black face, walking towards the door.

The prison of the Criminal Department caught fire and burned five prisoners to death, and the matter could not be suppressed, making a bit of a big noise, and Min Gyu was a little anxious.

However, this can't be blamed on the carelessness of the people who did the work, but I didn't expect the fire to spread so quickly in the autumn, and it was almost the same as killing Hui Niang in the plan, who knew that five lives were involved, and more people were injured, and even some jailers were burned by the fire.

"I've seen Jian Changbo."

Min Gui frowned when he saw Zhang Yanling, and he didn't seem very polite, because he felt that Zhang Yanling, who was an outsider, ran to the Criminal Department without saying hello in advance, obviously with the intention of asking the teacher to ask for guilt!

Zhang Yanling didn't care so much, and asked directly: "Min Shangshu, what's going on with the fire in the prison of the Criminal Department?" ”

Min Gui stiffened his neck and said: "The Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Dali Temple have been investigated, and the conclusion is that the prisoner accidentally knocked over the oil lamp, and the jailer did not patrol in the middle of the night, so that the fire spread before it was discovered, and it was impossible to rescue it." Uncle Jian Chang is here, I don't know what is going on? ”

Even Min Gui made a conclusion about the "accident" of this fire, even if there are some unreasonable points, Zhang Yanling, a person who can't beat the edge with eight poles, is not qualified to ask at all.

Zhang Yanling said: "The emperor is very concerned about this case, and Min Shangshu should still think about how to explain to the emperor." ”

Min Gyu's relationship with Zhang Yanling was not bad before, but at this time he was annoyed...... There was a fire in the prison of my criminal department, and only a few prisoners died, so can the prisoners go to the emperor to confess?

"Thank you Jian Changbo for reminding me, this official will take it all in." Min Gui's tone was stiff, which immediately made Zhang Yanling's heart angry.

Zhang Yanling didn't go inside to check, and went directly to the Shouning Marquis Mansion.

When he told Zhang Heling about the fire in the prison of the Criminal Department, Zhang Heling just squinted his eyes slightly and said: "The fire in the prison of the Criminal Department is a matter of the Criminal Department, what are you doing when you run to ask for your own fun?" Aren't the main culprits who accepted bribes all detained in Dali Temple? ”

"Big brother, isn't there still a Lu Sun clan in the prison of the Criminal Department? She was unofficial and was imprisoned with the convicts. Zhang Yanling said unwillingly.

"What does a widow do to her? Dead is dead, do you still want to ......"

Zhang Heling suddenly understood something, and said with a sneer, "No wonder you want to buy the guilty daughter!" Hmph, you have bad intentions! ”

Zhang Yanling's face was a little embarrassed: "Big brother, who can this person not have selfishness, I originally wanted to see what a woman who can manage such a big industry looks like, and whether she will be as talented and beautiful as the rumors from the outside world...... How could I not know that this kind of woman can't be touched? It's just unwilling! ”

"Why not? It's better to die, but this fire ...... It couldn't have come at a better time. What does the Criminal Department say? Zhang Heling also felt that this fire was a little unusual.

Zhang Yanling said: "I have asked, and the old man of Min Guina said that it was an accidental fire, and five people died, and a lot of injuries were injured, because Lu Sun's prison number was in the innermost, and it was impossible to rescue when the fire was discovered." At this time, the people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei are still tracking. ”

Zhang Heling nodded slightly: "This case is not small, and it is expected that the people in the Criminal Department will not dare to secretly engage in ghosts, but the most important thing is to verify the identity." This Lu Sun's family has a lot of money, if she takes out her family property to save her life, maybe someone will really take risks......"

"Big brother forgot? The woman's family property is now ours, and my eldest brother is still not at ease? Make sure there's nothing left. ”

Zhang Yanling said proudly, "The eldest brother refuses to let me deduct the money privately, but those properties still have to be left behind, and it is better to sell them for cash in the future, or use them to rent out to collect rent, and there is always a little income." ”

Zhang Heling thought about it, and finally nodded, and did not continue to ask about the fire in the prison of the Criminal Department.

……

……

The prison of the Criminal Department accidentally caught fire, and it was transmitted to the cabinet in the afternoon, and it was known to Xie Qian.

After all, every household will light tung oil lamps and candles at night, even if there is a fire, it is not uncommon, even if the heavily guarded palace will be burned in a short time, let alone other places? However, the prison of the Criminal Department has not been out of the water for many years, which makes Xie Qian feel a little strange.

After Xie Qian planned to play the promissory note for the day, he came out of the palace and happened to meet Liu Daxia, the secretary of the military department, and the two hurriedly walked together to talk about the matter.

"The criminal department caught fire, and the Lumen Sun clan died in the fire, has the Xie Ge Department heard of it?" Liu Daxia came up and asked.

Xie Qian only knew that there was a fire in the criminal department, but he didn't know that Sun Huiniang happened to be burned to death inside, he was slightly stunned and asked, "Why is it so coincidental?" ”

Liu Daxia muttered: "When I heard it this morning, I also felt that it was too coincidental, but after careful questioning, I learned that the Lumen Sun family was detained in the depths of the cell, and after the fire broke out, it was too late to rescue him, so he was buried in the fire." ”

"Appeal ......"

When Xie Qian heard the news, he was a little worried about Shen Xi, he was afraid that Shen Xi would have some kind of overreaction, "Is there a confirmed body?" ”

Liu Daxia said: "Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and the three law divisions all entered the fire for inspection, and there were no traces of man-made damage in the cell, and the fire also started by accident, as for the Lumen Sun family...... Physical characteristics are basically the same, but ...... died a little more miserably, and I have asked people to go to Shen Xi to inform him, so that he can mourn and change. ”

"This kid!"

Xie Qian was indignant, "If it weren't for this fire, maybe he would really be able to do something unreasonable." Guess what, yesterday he actually presented an invitation to tune, and wanted to pick a son and quit......"

Liu Daxia was a little surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Is this serious?" ”

"Alas! I don't know what this kid thinks, a good Beijing official is not appropriate, he has to be transferred, and the local official is so good? ”

Xie Qian said, took out the song written by Shen Xi and handed it to Liu Daxia, and said casually, "I'll talk to him when I go back, and I must dispel his negative thoughts." ”

After Liu Daxia read it, he sensed Shen Xi's helplessness between the lines, which was a kind of frustration and helplessness that could not take his fate into his own hands.

"Maybe he just feels that the court owes him something." Liu Daxia said, "But one yard is one yard, no matter how great his credit is, it is not a basis for the Lumen Sun clan to get away with it." Yu Qiao turned around and told him more, no matter how he had to let go of his mentality...... Handle the funeral well. ”

Xie Qian sneered, looking a little annoyed, but after staggering with Liu Daxia, Xie Qian's face was flushed with worry.

"You stinky boy, it's really a heart." Xie Qian took Shen Xi's invitation back into his arms, the sedan chair had already come, and the attendant had already come to ask Xie Qian where to go.

Xie Qian waved his hand and said, "Go home!" Then find someone to inform Shen Yude and let him come to my mansion, if he dares to push and push, tie him up! ”

……

……

Shen Xi finished writing the sacrifice to Hui Niang, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but fill with tears.

It's not his disguise, it's a revelation of his true feelings.

For Shen Xi, this incident is the most important lesson in his life, which has transformed his character, and he will continue to walk in officialdom in the future, but the future is uncertain.

"Xianggong...... Someone from the old mansion came up...... Please come and ...... also said that it was the elder of the pavilion who gave it personally. ”

Xie Yun'er was still emotionally restrained, but when she saw the sacrificial text written in Shen Xi's mourning, she couldn't help it and sobbed again.

"Got it."

Shen Xi put down his pen, sighed faintly, and walked out of the door after Xie Yun'er stepped forward to help sort out his clothes, and at this time Yin Wenzheng was standing in the courtyard, blinking his big eyes and looking at him curiously, not understanding why there were tears on his face.

"Hmmm......"

Yin Wen doesn't like to talk very much on weekdays, she saw that Shen Xi was sad, and she became sad, leaned over, raised her hand to help Shen Xi wipe her tears with her sleeve, and when she found that the sleeves were not very effective, she took out the close-fitting Yunjin white handkerchief that Xie Yun'er prepared for her, and wiped Shen Xi's tears with a handkerchief.

"Xiaowen, that's good." Shen Xi smiled and touched Yin Wen's face.

"No ......"

Yin Wen said a word, his face was shy, but he naturally put his head into Shen Xi's arms, Xiao Nizi would be shy after being praised by Shen Xi, and she knew more and more about asking Shen Xi for her love.

Shen Xi said: "Stay at home obediently, I have something to do, and I will tell you a story when I come back." ”

"Uh-huh."

Like Lin Dai, Yin Wen also likes to listen to stories, but what she likes to listen to is not the stories of princesses and princes, but fairy tales about sika deer, white rabbits, big bad wolves, etc., and she will always be immersed in a rambling reverie.

Shen Xi had already learned from Yu Niang that Yin Wen's grandmother and parents were about to arrive in the capital.

After the funeral of the Yin family, Shen Xi took Yin Wen's grandmother and parents to the capital, and also wanted Yin Wen to have his relatives by his side, so that Xiao Nizi would always be so happy and happy.

It's just that until now, Shen Xi didn't dare to tell Xiao Nizi the news of Shopkeeper Yin's death.
