Chapter 43 Detective Chongzhen

Seeing that the soldiers at the head of the city couldn't hold on, Liu Qianhu didn't plan to hold on to it anymore, because he couldn't hold it at all. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info glanced at his henchman, secretly gave him a look, and Liu Qianhu left the city wall with people.

"Horses, let's go to the north gate immediately!" Liu Qianhu pulled his henchman and asked in a very eager tone.

The subordinates didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "Here, my lord's way!" ”

When he came to the location of the horses, Liu Qianhu found that there were more than 100 people here, all of whom were wearing armor, and the guys in their hands were also good, obviously the elite of his subordinates, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his henchmen were good at doing things.

Turning over the horse and slashing the long knife in his hand, Liu Qianhu said loudly: "The anti-thieves besieged the city, you and I rushed out together, let's kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions." If you are willing to fight to the death against the thief, then rush with me! ”

Everyone looked at Liu Qianhu with a brave face, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, no wonder they are thousands of households, they are just a big soldier, and they can't compare with this shameless momentum alone. is obviously an escape, and he said it so righteously and awe-inspiringly, it is simply shameless.

You are out of the city desperately, you should go to the south city, what are you running to the north city? But everyone wants to live, so naturally no one will be stupid at this time.

When the group came to the north gate, they found that the defenders here had already opened the city gate and ran, the city gate was wide open, and groups of people were running out. Liu Qianhu was suddenly frightened, and scolded the soldiers defending the city in his heart for being unreliable, if this was a division of troops by thieves, wouldn't his only way out be blocked?

glaring at his henchman fiercely, Liu Qianhu scolded loudly: "Look at the good things you did, how can you rush out now?" ”

When the henchman saw this scene, his eyes were red, and when he heard the shouting and killing sound coming from behind him, he raised the horsewhip in his hand fiercely, and whipped it hard at the people who were blocking the front: "Get out of here, don't block us from going out of the city to kill the enemy!" ”

The soldiers who followed him were not stupid, and hurriedly followed suit, and a group of people urged the war horses to rush forward. The soldiers who did not have horses swung their swords and slammed them forward with their scabbards.

For a time, there was chaos at the city gate, the people shouted in pain, and the people who were crowded forward turned on their backs, and some people were directly trampled underneath.

Liu Qianhu took care of this, and kept urging his war horse, and the thieves were going to come up, and he would die here if he didn't leave.

At this time, the thief had already climbed to the top of the city, and was running towards this side, and someone raised the big knife in his hand: "Catch the general on horseback in front, whoever catches him will be promoted to one level, five hundred taels of silver, quickly, arrest someone!" ”

Liu Qianhu and the others were suddenly heartbroken, fortunately, at this time, the people had already dodged away, they couldn't take care of much, and rushed out on horseback, as for the soldiers who didn't have horses, they couldn't manage so much, let them fend for themselves, and ask for more blessings!

The battle of Fugu did not last long, when the south gate was opened, Wang Jiayinzhi rode into the city on a tall horse.

Looking at the corpses scattered everywhere, Wang Jiayin opened his mouth and ordered: "Let people quickly clean up the corpses, what does the mess look like?" As he spoke, he continued to walk forward, and the target was the Yamen of the Fugu Prefect's Mansion, which would become Wang Jiayin's temporary station.

At this moment, Emperor Chongzhen, who was far away in the capital, was thinking about the lawsuit, of course, not because of Wang Jiayin in Fugu, but because of Wen Zhenmeng in Shuntian Mansion.

He didn't let Wen Zhenmeng stop clearing the land, and suppressed all the twists and turns of participating in the impeachment of Wen Zhenmeng, originally thought that it wouldn't be too big for the time being, and he could buy himself a little time, but he was wrong. It happened anyway, and he died again, this time by the officials of Shuntianfu.

Of course, it is only said that it was killed by the officials of Shuntianfu, whether it is every judgment or not, but Wen Zhenmeng of Shuntianfu was once again pushed to the forefront.

Countless twists and turns drowned the General Administration, the cabinet, and the dragon book case of Emperor Chongzhen. The cause of the incident was still Qingzhang land, and the person who made the trouble was an ordinary person with more than a dozen acres of land, and the officials of Shuntianfu had a fight with him.

Not only did he die in one day when he went back, but the matter of the Shuntianfu officials beating people to death instantly spread throughout the entire city of Beijing, and this time public opinion was in an uproar.

The ministers did not oppose Emperor Chongzhen's apportionment into the mu, and they did not oppose Emperor Chongzhen's officials and gentry to pay taxes as one, and the target of the attack was Wen Zhenmeng.

Such a brutal and unkind official is not suitable to be the Yin of Shuntian Mansion at all, and he is not suitable to be in charge of the land of Qingzhang, so he asked the emperor to choose another merit and put Wen Zhenmeng in prison for punishment. The government and the opposition are united in hatred of the enemy, as if Wen Zhenmeng is not punished, and heaven will not tolerate it.

Emperor Chongzhen angrily kicked down the Longshu case, and this roundabout strategy made Emperor Chongzhen have no way at all. Once he dismissed Wen Zhenmeng, the personnel dispute began, where did he find such a person? Who else would be willing to do it?

You don't have to think about it to know that this matter will definitely drag on indefinitely, until the policy cannot be implemented.

ruthless, it's really too ruthless, Emperor Chongzhen can't wait to arrest these people out of the Nine Clans, but he can't find anyone for a while. The court was full of people, and some people had already begun to resign from the government, and all of them were left behind by Emperor Chongzhen.

Once this start, the imperial court will definitely start a wave of resignation, and I am not ready for this for the time being!

However, if you stop, if you want to start it in the future, the resistance will be greater. The top priority is to find out who is behind the ghost, and if you want to kill the chicken and make an example, you must also catch the chicken first! The only clue is Liang Zhongkun, but this Liang Zhongkun can't be found.

"Princess, how is the emperor in his mood?" Fang Zhenghua followed behind Wang Chengen and said cautiously.

Wang Chengen smiled bitterly, glanced at Fang Zhenghua, whose face was still a little pale, shook his head and said: "Father-in-law Fang, we are all old people from the palace, think about it yourself, what is the emperor's temper, how can you feel now?" ”

Knowing that he asked too much, it would be strange if the emperor's mood could be good, and he sighed helplessly: "Dongchang and Jinyiwei have not made any progress, at this time, the emperor should be angry, it seems that today's pass is not good!" ”

When he learned that Emperor Chongzhen had summoned him, Fang Zhenghua was ready to be trained, and he was not surprised to see Emperor Chongzhen with a gloomy face.

"Your Majesty, Grandpa Fang is here!" Wang Chengen said this, and directly bowed down and retreated, obviously not ready to share the hardships with Fang Zhenghua here, for Fang Zhenghua's complaining eyes, Wang Chengen directly chose to turn a blind eye.

Seeing that Fang Zhenghua was about to salute, Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Okay, these will be saved, I ask you, do you have any clues about the things you investigated?" Is there any news from that Liang Zhongkun? I can't find anyone on Jinyiwei's side, and you can't find anyone in the East Factory? ”

Fang Zhenghua smiled bitterly, now countless people are looking for Liang Zhongkun again, but how difficult is it to find Liang Zhongkun?

"Back to the emperor, the capital is so big, and there are so many dignitaries, it's really not easy to find someone!" Fang Zhenghua saw that Emperor Chongzhen's face was even more ugly, and hurriedly said: "However, the gates of the capital have been under martial law, and the slaves and maids have arranged for people who know Liang Zhongkun to guard the gates, I believe that he has not left the capital yet." ”

Emperor Chongzhen was skeptical about Fang Zhenghua's words, would those people at the city gate be serious? Liang Zhongkun may have run out a long time ago.

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen was wrong this time, the six doors of the Criminal Department, the Dongchang Jinyi Guard, for Liang Zhongkun's reward is higher and higher, it has been opened to the point of ten thousand taels of silver, and the official is promoted to the third level, and now the soldiers guarding the city gate are more and more spiritual than one another.

The people who came out of Uncle Guo's Mansion were also staring with big eyes, for fear of missing Liang Zhongkun, and even a lot of rangers on the rivers and lakes came, and now Liang Zhongkun is a bunch of moving treasure troves, all of which are silver! Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Liang Zhongkun to get out of the city at all.

A few days ago, there was a person who transported the coffin out of the city, and directly lifted the lid of the coffin.

As for the dignitaries and dignitaries who go out of the city, Dongchang and Jinyiwei will not let go at all, Dongchang has arranged a father-in-law at every city gate, and the dignitaries and dignitaries do not have female dependents, you say it is inconvenient, we have a father-in-law, and even the princess and queen have served, do you dare to dislike it?

The whole capital is in a rumor, Liang Zhongkun can only be in the capital, he can't get out at all, and now he would rather catch the mistake and not let it go, and if he looks a little similar to the painting and shadow figure, he will be pressed directly to the yamen, and he will release you after proving his identity.

"Where's the longevity ointment? Any clues? "Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand, the matter of duck slices must be investigated, if Liang Zhongkun can be moved, it will be the best.

Fang Zhenghua shook his head and said with a wry smile: "No, there are no clues for the time being, several shops have been targeted, and they haven't started yet, the slave is afraid of startling the snake." ”

Emperor Chongzhen touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and asked: "I don't know if Liang Zhongkun eats Fushou paste himself, but he must have given it to Yuan Bin, otherwise Yuan Bin would not have become addicted, and in the end, he was replaced with arsenic and ate himself to death." ”

"Check Liang Zhongkun's interpersonal relationships, see who he has close contact with on weekdays, and which store he likes to go to, I don't believe that Liang Zhongkun has no private life at all." Emperor Chongzhen looked at Fang Zhenghua: "One person and one person check, one shop after another, I don't believe that I can't find clues!" ”

After listening to Emperor Chongzhen's words, Fang Zhenghua said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, the slave has already checked, this Liang Zhongkun's parents are dead, and he has no brothers and sisters at home. There are not many people in contact with on weekdays, just a few readers, slaves and maids have been checked over and over again, and there are no special characters. ”

"As for the places he frequents, Liang Zhongkun doesn't gamble, doesn't go to Qinglou, and when he goes out of the bookstore, he basically doesn't go anywhere."

"A bookstore?" Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, interrupted Fang Zhenghua's words, and said in a deep voice: "Have you checked the bookstore?" ”

Fang Zhenghua nodded: "The slave maid let people check, the owner of the bookstore has no problem, the wife and children at home are all in the capital, and they can barely make a living by doing some calligraphy and painting business, there is no problem." As for the guys in the bookstore, there's nothing wrong with that, they're all ordinary people. ”

"That's not right!" Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said directly: "There must be something wrong with this bookstore, have you checked, does this bookstore sell Fushou cream?" ”

"The slaves and maids have sent people to tempt, but they don't sell longevity ointment!" Fang Zhenghua shook his head, he thought that he had checked that there was no leakage, but there was no clue at all: "The slave has carefully studied the calligraphy and paintings that Liang Zhongkun bought every time, there is nothing special." ”

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen didn't know how to start, but Emperor Chongzhen believed in one thing, that is, everyone who walked would leave traces, and it was impossible not to have a clue.

"You check Uncle Guo's mansion!" Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while, and then said: "I suspect that there are people in the Uncle Mansion who are accomplices with Liang Zhongkun, and at least provide Liang Zhongkun with Fushou ointment." Since Liang Zhongkun himself has no problem, then there must be other people in Uncle Guo's Mansion who have problems. ”

"Who else in Uncle Guo's Mansion eats Fushou Cream, this is very important, Liang Zhongkun wants to control a person, Fushou Paste is the best means!" Emperor Chongzhen stared at Fang Zhenghua and said directly: "Focus on Uncle Yuan's concubines, they are rich, empty, and secretive enough, you send someone to check to see if there are any people in Uncle Yuan's concubines who eat Fushou ointment, and see where they go to buy Fushou ointment!" ”

Fang Zhenghua's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stood up and said, "The emperor's life, the slave and maid are going!" ”

Looking at Fang Zhenghua's back, Emperor Chongzhen smiled bitterly, he didn't expect that he would have a day as a cameo detective, I hope what I thought was not wrong! In any case, this can be regarded as a direction, if it can be found out, he will be able to arrest the person who provided Liang Zhongkun with Fushou ointment.

These people who sell Fushou paste should know where Liang Zhongkun is, or they may not know, but this is the only clue.

"Your Majesty, Lord Sun is here!" Wang Chengen walked in from outside, and saw that Emperor Chongzhen's face was still not very good-looking, but the person who came was too important, and he didn't dare to hide it or not report it, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "See you outside!" ”

Lord Sun? Emperor Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, and then thought of a person, who was Sun Chengzong.

I have been anxious these days, and I didn't expect Sun Chengzong, he found it himself, is there something big that can't be done? The imperial court doesn't have a big deal these days!

"Let him in!" Emperor Chongzhen thought about it and felt that he still wanted to see Sun Chengzong, so he ordered Wang Chengen to go down.

After a short time, Sun Chengzong walked in from the outside, and when he saw Emperor Chongzhen's bad face, Sun Chengzong was relieved, and said with a smile: "The emperor is preoccupied, it is the courtier's no, the minister is here to share the emperor's worries, I hope the emperor will not dislike the old minister!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen's heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "I am dizzy and dizzy, I don't know what Aiqing has to do, I have been looking forward to Aiqing for a long time!" (To be continued.) )
