When Sun Yi, the secretary of the military department, went to court, there was a young man who looked like a scribe in green clothes beside him.

Zhuo Zhenggong went to Wanghai County, Xuzhou, on business, and King Chen ordered the third son, Fang Junyue, to temporarily act as the secretary and do the same thing.

Hundreds of officials step into the palace in Qingyuntai, the left and right two phases in the front, the Grand Governor and the Doctor Lu followed, the eight Shangshu, the six deacons, the Doctor, the Guanglu Doctor, although the internal governor Wei Yong was reprimanded, but temporarily the responsibility of the internal governor, and the outer governor of the palace were listed side by side.

After that, the doctor who picked up the relics, Cao Shilang of each of the eight departments, the inner deputy governor, the outer deputy governor and others walked forward in turn.

Zhu Yucheng, the secretary of the ministry, squinted his eyes, looked at Xie Linfu, the new secretary of the ministry who was walking beside him, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Wu Shangshu had just been killed, and Cao Xie Linfu, the director of the Ministry of Works, was so anxious that he jumped up and down, and on the second day, he sorted out all the matters of the Ministry of Industry, nominally asking His Royal Highness King Chen for instructions, but in fact he didn't know, this was a hint to the king that he was competent for the duties of the Ministry of Works.

The position of Shangshu cannot be vacant, he once recommended his protégé, so that the fat difference of the Ministry of Industry was brought into his control, which was really harmless, but unfortunately it was vetoed by the king one by one, but this Xie Linfu ascended to the sky in one step and became the new Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, but he didn't know much about the background of this guy, and he didn't know whose disciple it was.

"Congratulations to Xie Shangshu!" Zhu Yucheng put on a smile on his face, and he didn't care if he could be seen through, and his hand holding the wat board drooped slightly.

"Oh, I also want to thank Zhu Shangshu for his kind words for Xie in front of the king!" Xie Linfu was only promoted to this position when he was over fifty years old, and his ability to compliment and flatter people was naturally proficient, knowing that he was in office, he forcibly squeezed out the ambition of this Lord Zhu, and said with a haha.

"Where is it, it's Lord Xie's talent that knows people, and the king is just meritocracy!" Zhu Yucheng is still better, and he slapped the sycophants of two people in one sentence.

Qiao Duyun, the Shangshu of the Qiankun Camp, listened to the politeness of the two old-timers, and the corners of his mouth showed a trace of curvature imperceptibly. As the youngest of the eight books, he has always scoffed at officialdom, but he has listened to it a lot over the years and got used to it a lot.

Fortunately, Zheng Youxiang appreciated his talent, so he was able to treat his colleagues with silence, otherwise he would have been overwhelmed by the impeachment twists and turns.

"The Third Son." Qiao Duyun nodded slightly, he still had respect for the few gods of the Divine Capture Division, counting it, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, he respected only a few people.

"Qiao Shangshu." Fang Junyue bowed and bowed, he walked in the pile of Shangshu, feeling a little uncomfortable, but Lord Zhuo went out, and His Royal Highness appointed him to do Shangshu affairs, so he had to come to the court step by step.

Among the few people in front, Fang Junyue heard Li Shangshu's voice again.

"Lord Gongsun, can Bai Shui do his best?" Li Xianmin, the secretary of the Criminal Department, lowered his voice and asked.

"Gongzi Xu has done his best, Master Li has really received a good help!" Gongsun Yi praised Xu Baishui, who was arranged to protect him.

"That's good!" Li Xianmin laughed heartily.

Hearing the whispers of his colleagues behind him, Zheng Zhi glanced at Zuo Xiang Sheng Mingzhe, only to see that the other party was hanging his head, his upper and lower eyelids were already fighting, and he was honestly following himself at the front of the team, and couldn't help sighing.

…………

Chu Qingqing sat on the first floor of the Divine Capture Division's Dossier Pavilion, frowning beautifully, and carefully reading the "Kanyulu" in his hand.

She still couldn't understand the words of Lord Tianguan that night.

"High in the wilderness, withered grass sprouts, and towering giant trees gnawed at their roots by insects and ants."

She couldn't read the book about the astrological trace master at all, and she could only read this "Kanyulu", which also recorded celestial phenomena.

There is a record in "Kanyulu Tianwen Xun": Heaven and earth are not formed, Feng Feng Yiyi, those who are clear and yang are thin and thin, and those who are turbid are stagnant and the earth. The combination of clarity is easy, and the condensation of heavy turbidity is difficult, so the sky is first established and the earth is determined. The essence of heaven and earth is yin and yang, the essence of yin and yang is the four hours, and the scattered essence of the four seasons is all things. The heat of the sun makes fire, and the essence of fire is Taizhao, also known as the sun; The cold of yin is water, the essence of water is Taiyin, and the moon is the moon, and the lewd of the sun and the moon is the stars. The heavens are subject to the sun, moon and stars, and the earth is subject to water and dust.

Because of such an ancient legend, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and the entire land of Zhongzhou, even Hoshino, Xilu, and Jiuyuan. They all believe in the god of Taizhao, the god of Taiyin, and the god of stars, and the astrological masters are guided by the god of stars, watching over the ups and downs of this land.

Chu Qingqing wanted to find the relevant words and sentences from the Kanyu Record, but unfortunately he couldn't find them after looking through them for a long time.

When he looked up, Chu Qingqing saw Liu Shuang frowning, not knowing what to look at.

There is no trace of the three murders so far, and the only news I got was that Gongsun Yi was preemptively protected by the Criminal Department.

Although I vaguely feel that it may not be a good errand, it is better than having no clue now.

"Mr. Zhou." Chu Qingqing closed the "Kanyu Lu" and rubbed the corners of his forehead, for a well-read and well-remembered gentleman like Mr. Zhou Hui Zhou in the division, many times, it is even more useful than the Seven Gods Catch.

"The Seventh Son." Zhou Hui heard Chu Qingqing's summons and put down the work in his hand.

"Sir, you are the most learned in the Division, do you know what that means?" Chu Qingqing handed the proverb written on hemp paper to Zhou Hui.

Looking at those familiar words forming obscure sentences, Zhou Hui also frowned, searching for relevant information in his mind to match the many histories that had happened.

"I remember that when Emperor Da Geng was Huai, there was such a sentence in the prophecy of the astrological master, 'The big tree will collapse to insects and ants'." Zhou Hui found such a sentence from the vast memory.

"Sir, you mean, it was the tree itself that broke the tree?" Chu Qingqing felt a chill on her face, she had read the history of Emperor Huai, a hundred years ago, Da Geng collapsed in his hands, and it was he who caused all this.

The cause of one's own creation is also borne by oneself.

"No, I don't understand if it's the same thing." Zhou Hui shook his head slowly, silent, and Zhou Hui, who already had a hint in his heart, asked, "Dare to ask the Seventh Prince, why do you ask for this proverb?" To whom? ”

Chu Qingqing looked at Zhou Hui's bright eyes and decided not to hide it anymore.

"This is what I ask for from Lord Tianguan for the murder of three important ministers."

"Lord Tianguan's words, this sentence will definitely come true." Zhou Hui said heavily, he knew how powerful the prophecy of Lord Tianguan's prophecy was, and they watched over the people under the entire star, as if the sky had opened its eyes and looked down on the vast number of beings on the earth.

"If so, does the gentleman have eyebrows?" Chu Qingqing stared at Zhou Hui, as if he wanted to see the answer from his face.

"I'm just guessing." Zhou Hui's face became even heavier, "If that's the case, then this matter is likely to be related to the Seven Kingdoms." ”

"Stupid, come with me to the Rite Department!" When Chu Qingqing heard such speculation, he didn't have time to think about it, so he called Liu Shuang and went straight to the Ministry of Rites.

…………

Riding a fast horse, Chu Qingqing took Liu Shuang across the southern city, entered the palace from Qingyuntai, and galloped all the way towards the Ministry of Rites.

Not everyone in the royal capital could ride a horse. Officials above the third rank can take a private sedan chair, and above the fourth rank, or have the king's order, or arrest the murderer, or have an emergency military situation, or have been ordered to enter the palace, can ride a horse.

"The Seventh Son." The official of the ceremonial department recognized Chu Qingqing, and when he saw that the seventh prince was coming, he must have something important, so he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly invited him into the inner hall and greeted the king of Shangshu.

"Yo, Seventh Prince, what's the important matter of coming to my Ministry of Rites today?" Wang Mingshen greeted him with a smile, although in terms of rank, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites should be of the same rank as Zhuo Zhenggong, but as the smallest of the eight departments, Wang Shangshu has always adhered to the principle of giving everyone face.

"Wang Shangshu!" Chu Qingqing bowed and bowed.

"I've seen Wang Shangshu!" Liu Shuang looked at the middle-aged man with a pleasant face and bowed.

"This is the Lizhou Decree mentioned by Master Zhuo, Liu Shuang and Liu Gongzi!" Wang Ming showed a look of approval, "It's really young and promising!" ”

"Wang Shangshu has won the award!" Liu Shuang was a little flattered, he had a small order, how could he afford the praise of Lord Shangshu.

"Lord Shangshu, Qingqing is here to check out the things that the imperial capital has rewarded, and who they are with." Chu Qingqing expressed his intentions. Bent down and wait for Wang Shangshu's reply.

"This ......" Wang Mingshen suddenly became nervous when he heard such a request. It's not that he neglected his duties, resulting in no rules to check, but those things that the emperor rewarded, generally speaking, are rare treasures, either left in the palace, or rewarded to the important ministers, if Zhuo Zhenggong came to check, maybe it was okay, but now it is the seventh prince to check, if those important ministers are investigated afterwards, he can not afford it, but if he is not allowed to check, the seven sons of the God Capture Division have always been single-minded, in case Zhuo Zhenggong comes back, knowing that when he is not there, the Ministry of Rites embarrassed the seventh son, it is also difficult to do.

"Wang Shangshu rest assured, the two of us are in a hurry today, and tomorrow I will send someone to send the inspection order of the Divine Arrest Division to the adult." Chu Qingqing saw Wang Shangshu's concerns, and also acted according to the rules, "Qingqing has no intention of embarrassing the adults, please forgive me!" ”

"That's great!" Hearing that there was an inspection order, and with the guarantee of the entire Divine Capture Division, he was not afraid of being held responsible, Wang Mingshen showed a smile and ordered: "Zhang Liang, take the seventh prince to the Mingdian Pavilion." ”

"Lord Xie Shangshu." Chu Qingqing thanked Wang Mingshen and followed Si Cao out of the inner hall.

"Yes." Si Cao Shilang, named Zhang Liang, led Chu Qingqing and Liu Shuang into the Mingdian Pavilion.

The Ministry of Rites is not very luxurious, the bottom is because the scope of the Ministry of Rites is still much less than the other seven, in addition to festivals and festivals, this weekday has a lot of leisure, and it is also a clear water yamen.

"Seventh son, this is the place where my Ministry of Rites records all the account transactions." Zhang Liang has been under Wang Shangshu for a long time, and he has also learned the habit of respecting people comfortably.

"The imperial capital's rewards are all here. In recent years, the imperial capital's rewards have become less and less, and this was more than ten years ago. Zhang Liang opened the deepest library, and the case file was a little yellow, with a musty smell.

"I'll go down first, if you need anything like the seventh prince, just say hello." Knowing that the Divine Arrest Division was investigating the case, it was inconvenient for him to wait here, Zhang Liang said with a smile, and turned around and walked out of the Mingdian Pavilion.
