It was a rare sunny day, and I was sitting in the yard, drinking tea and thinking about things, when a hurried trot of autumn tea pulled me out of the calm. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Xiangye! Something is wrong! ”

Now that I have been tortured by this position, I am not surprised by anything, but I just thought that the chess game with the seventh brother in the afternoon was in the soup again, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Drowned!" Qiu Ming said, "Madame said that she wanted to eat candy man, so I went to Beita Street to buy it, and when I went, I found that there was a house on Beita Street surrounded by people, which was the house of Master Kong!" ”

"Master Kong's house is flooded?" I frowned, "Beita Street is backing the mountain, where does the water come from?" ”

"It's not flooded, it's mercury!" Qiu Ming's tone revealed horror, "Mercury all over the ground, I don't know if I have been ...... by mercury"

"Isn't Kong Yougong's house sealed by the Criminal Department? How did this happen? ”

As he was talking, Qiu Mang came to report that Xing Yuanda, the waiter of the Criminal Department, was waiting to see me in the lobby, looking very anxious.

I immediately got up, asked Qiu Mang to put away the tea set, and strode to the lobby.

Xing Yuanda saw me coming, and after saluting, he said: "Xiangye, the will of the above is to investigate and deal with the real estate of Master Kong one by one, so the minister led people to the property on Beita Street early in the morning, I never thought that this two-story small house, the second floor is filled with mercury!" One of Chen's subordinates accidentally opened the floodgate, and mercury gushed out from the second floor, which was a dereliction of duty! ”

"Are there any casualties?" I asked.

"Two officials were buried in mercury, and there were no casualties."

I glanced at Qiu Ming, Qiu Ming immediately brought me pen and ink, and I said as I wrote: "You sent someone to take my note to the household department to receive the silver, and appeased the families of the two officials." ”

"Yes."

"Is the vent blocked?"

"It has been preliminarily blocked, but the follow-up work has to be completed by the Ministry of Industry."

"In Wucheng City, there is a whole layer of mercury, which is really appalling. The matter is very high, so you first fence off the vicinity of the house and pacify the people nearby, and then I will come. "I asked Qiu Ming to prepare clothes for me," Qiu Mang, you go to Lord Ye's mansion, explain the situation to him, and ask him to go to the scene as well. ”

"Yes." Xing Yuan said, "Xiangye, my brother's matter, the minister thanked me again." ”

I remembered that Princess Zhangde's concubine Xing Yuanling was his own brother, in fact, Xing Yuanling was arrested inexplicably, and he was quite wronged, in the final analysis, Yang Yuxian wanted to deal with me, so he could only smile at him.

After getting dressed, I was about to go out when a servant from the water prison came and invited me to come over.

"Water dungeon?" I frowned, "Kong Yougong made a move?" ”

"I don't know the specifics, it's just that Master Li sent a small one, so be sure to ask Xiangye to come over!"

I weighed it again and again, remembering that Jin Se was a national teacher, so it was better to let her go to Beita Street for me, but the little girl's reward was that Jin Se was not in the house, and I didn't know where to go, so I had no choice but to ask Qiu Mang to ask my third brother for help.

I was relieved that Ye Shuluo was at the scene, but in order to keep Ye Shuluo from being isolated, it was better to let the third brother go together.

After arranging it, I took the autumn tea and walked on the road to the water prison that I had walked countless times and was all too familiar with.

The water prison was dark and dark, and every time I came here, I felt very uncomfortable. Li Shuangshi had been waiting for me at the door of the water prison interrogation room for a long time, and when he saw me coming, he saluted me and said, "Xiangye." ”

"Kong Yougong has moved?"

"Anything related to this case, Master Kong didn't say anything at all; Things that have nothing to do with this case, Master Kong has said a lot. Li Shuangshi's expression was complicated, "Xiangye, please listen to Master Kong's interrogation in person." ”

I frowned: "This is your own business, according to the law of the Chen Kingdom, if it is not ordered by His Majesty, I have no right to interrogate." ”

Li Shuangshi bowed again: "It's a big matter, you must have heard about the matter of Beita Street." Chen believes that this is not just a simple case of household deficit, it involves old accounts, and it is necessary for you to try it in person. ”

When I heard the words "old accounts", my heart skipped a beat.

Old accounts, I have heard too many old accounts, Fan Chengyu's treason case, the Sun family's beheading case, Lin Zhonghe's case, and my father's death are all suspicious, and the people involved are all my dearest people, and it seems that the national teacher has always deliberately concealed my case.

I took a deep breath and said, "Okay." ”

In the interrogation room, Kong Youxuan has long lost the heroism and flamboyance of the household servant back then, and now he is wearing a prison uniform, his face is full of fear and despair.

As soon as I entered the door, Kong Yougong immediately crawled over: "Xiangye! Xiangye! ”

The two jailers behind him immediately grabbed him, tears were still falling from his eyes, and he shouted: "Xiangye! Xiangye save me! It's the five princes and Han Fu who want me to be a scapegoat! Xiangye! Xiangye! ”

"It's been like this since he was locked in, he's been crazy, and he's been shouting things like the Five Princes wanting to kill him, and even said things like Chen Hanshi and Lin Zhonghe." Li Shuangshi wanted to speak and stopped, "All the records are here, Xiangye, please take a look." ”

Qiu Ming took a thick pile of paper and held it in front of me, but I was a little timid.

I didn't even dare to look at the records.

I'm afraid that from this black and white paper, I will see things that I don't want to see at all.

There was a commotion outside, and Ge Tianzhen pushed the door in, menacing.

"Lord Ge." Li Shuangshi saluted.

"Master Li has worked hard, and I will assist you in the interrogation of Kong Yougong." Ge Tianjian put his hands behind his back and said slowly, "Don't alarm Xiangye for such a trivial matter in the future, Xiangye has more important things to do, Qiu Ming, wait for Xiangye to go back." ”

"Is there anything more important than that?" I said, "Kong Youxuan's case is currently the biggest case, Your Majesty has issued an order that I will be in charge, does Lord Ge want to bypass me and ignore Your Majesty's will?" ”

"Don't dare, I just act according to the will of the national teacher under the will of His Majesty, according to the rules of Chen Guo's history of handling cases in the criminal department, this layer of interrogation is completed by the criminal department, Xiangye does not need and has no right to interrogate, and the national teacher sent me to assist in the investigation, in other words, the interrogation is completed by me and Master Li." Ge Tianzhen smiled and said, "Qiu Ming, give me the record in your hand." ”

Qiu Ming didn't dare to move, just looked at me.

"Qiu Ming—" Ge Tianzhen raised his voice, "give me something." ”

I didn't speak, just looked at Ge Tianzhen fixedly, Qiu Ming trembled and handed over the record in his hand to Ge Tianjian, Ge Tianzhen continued to smile: "There is also an assistant of Lord Ye of the Ministry of Engineering on Beita Street, please go back to the house to rest, there have been many affairs in recent years, please Xiangye, don't get tired." ”

I snorted and walked out.

Qiu Ming followed me and said hurriedly: "Xiangye, the carriage and carriage are here." ”

I rolled over and got on my horse: "I'll ride back!" ”

"Xiangye! Don't leave me! You rode the horse away, what will happen to this cart! Xiangye—"

I rode all the way and wanted to go to North Tower Street to check on the situation, but for some reason, by the time I reacted, I had already stopped at the door of the evening cherry blossoms.

"Isn't this Xiangye?" The little guy at the door of the late cherry house hurriedly came to lead the horse, "The master is please, and the little one will immediately send someone to inform the adult." ”

I didn't reply, with a stinky face, I rampage all the way to the east wing, Wan Sakura was chatting with Soft Qing, and when she saw me menacing, she said: "Yulan, even if you don't hold the prime minister's shelf, you won't go directly into my room like when you were a child." ”

Seeing that my face was not good, Soft Qing said, "I'll go make tea for Xiangye." ”

"Say, what happened to you, Lord Ge?" Evening Sakura laughed.

"How do you know it's Ge Tianzhen?"

"If you were taught a lesson by Master Ge when you were a child, you would be like this, more than ten years have passed, and you have not grown at all." Evening Sakura looked at me with her cheeks cupped, "Is it Kong-sama's case?" ”

I omitted what happened in the water prison just now, and I omitted what Kong Youchun said, and said to 1510 and Wanying: "Kong Youxuan obviously knows a lot of inside information, Li Shuangshi feels that the matter is too big and wants to report it to me, which is true, Ge Tianzhen rushed over at this time, obviously not wanting me to know the inside story." ”

"Indeed, according to what you said, Master Ge is obviously here to intercept information, and he knows that Kong Youxuan knows some ulterior things, and he will never let you know these things." Evening Sakura said thoughtfully, "Yulan, why do you have to check the hole and the spring?" Where did you know that Kong Yougong made false accounts? ”

"Xiangye, Lord Wang, Yanqing should be hungry now, I'll take a look, you guys talk slowly." Soft Qing suddenly got up, saluted, took the door and went out.

"Soft Qing is a smart and good girl, I hope that when He Yunsheng is away, you can take good care of her and Yan Qing." I watched as Soft Green walked out and said to the evening cherry blossoms.

"It's natural, it's just what you're going to say, does it have anything to do with soft green?" Evening Sakura asked.

"Wan Ying, we have been friends for more than ten years, I believe in you, I tell you honestly, I checked Kong Yougong in order to bring down Han Fu." I said word by word.

"Bring down Uncle Han Fuhuang?" Wan Sakura's eyes widened, "The fake account of the household, Uncle Han Fuhuang...... Is it ......?"

"The rebellion of the secret guard is your own experience, and I won't say much about the death of Haoran, think about it, the scholar of the Yuwen King, where did he get the courage and military power, and he dared to rebel?" I thought about it carefully on the way here, Sun Yuji, Du Duzhen and Ge Tianzhen are all people from the national teacher, since Ge Tianzhen doesn't want me to know, it means that the national teacher doesn't want me to find out that layer, obviously, there must be something hidden in it! He Yunsheng was transferred to the border at this juncture, Chen Hanshi's position is unclear, I can only trust the late cherry blossom who is outside the center of power but holds a certain amount of military power and has a childhood friendship with me, if I want to find out the hidden secret, the only person who can help me is the late cherry.

"You mean...... Behind King Yuwen, is Emperor Han Fu's uncle? Wan Sakura gasped, "Indeed, even I can see the status of Emperor Han Fu in the court, he is not small in ambition and has great power, but I didn't expect King Yuwen to be ......."

"With the lofty arrogance of King Yuwen, I guess that he and Han Fu are in a relationship of mutual use, Song Yuhan is sick, and King Yuwen built the Futu Tower, Han Fu is also very angry, I have seen all the excerpts, but it is difficult to guarantee, Han Fu deliberately participated in the book of King Yuwen to clear their relationship; The secret guard rebelled, and he also needed internal response in the palace, plus Feng Ge's matter, and King Yuwen borrowed the country of Si, in short, King Yuwen and Han Fu and Siguo must have colluded. I said, "It's just that Your Majesty knows about this matter, knows how to deal with this matter, and it is unknown how the other ministers of the DPRK and China, except for Han Fu's subordinates, will view this matter, and whether they will defect to Han Fu." Therefore, I need to use the hole reed to test Han Fu and see how deep Han Fu's water is. ”

"But Lord Ge took care of it......"

"The more I think about it now, the more wrong it becomes, is it really good for me that the national teacher asked Ge Tianyan to help me in the first place? Did the national teacher hide something from me? What is Chen Hanshi's position? Why did the national teacher suddenly put Jin Se in my house? ”

“…… The national teacher didn't want you to really know Han Fu's inside story from the beginning? The following things will not be touched by you, but if Han Fu is really brought down, it is your credit on the surface, then if Han Fu wants to make a comeback, the target of revenge must be you, not the national teacher; If he fails to bring down Han Fu, then the national teacher will have no loss, and he can solve the deficit of the household department......" Wan Sakura said with a creepy face, "No, Yulan, is the national teacher using you?" ”

I looked into the distance and said, "I don't know now if the national teacher is like I think, whether he wants to train me or push me into the fire pit; Do you really see me as someone you can trust, or do you just want me to be his scapegoat? ”
