Changchun Garden, Qingxi Book House.

Kangxi sat on the kang, picked up the excerpt jointly signed by Shangshu Laidu of the Criminal Department, Long Keduo, the Admiral of Jiumen, and Yi Wangyi of Shuntian Mansion in his right hand, and saw that in the above book, Wen Beile Yanshou confessed to instructing the servants in the mansion to commit murder in the pine alley "Cheng Zhai", and he couldn't help but be angry.

Lai Du, Long Keduo, and Wang Yi knelt on the ground, all bowing their heads and saying nothing.

They also have no bottom in their hearts, such a case happened in Beijing during the New Year's month, and the "murderer" is Baylor again.

Although Yan Shou Shao must not be punished, more than 30 innocent people died in vain, not to mention others, even Wang Yi, who is the governor of Shuntian Mansion, cannot escape the crime of negligence.

Kangxi put down the fold, but did not look at Wang Yi, but said to Lai Du: "Lai Du, I ask you, I gave an edict in the morning, so that the Criminal Department and the Infantry Army will be the commander of the Yamen and the Shuntian Mansion to try this case together, how can the eighth elder brother not be born?" ”

This is what stunned Lai Du, this eighth elder brother has been "sick and recuperating" since the "Killing Eagle Incident", which is a well-known thing, how could Long Live Lord think of asking this?

Kangxi didn't see Lai Du back for a long time, and couldn't help frowning, and said, "Huh? Don't you know why? ”

Lai Du came to his senses, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Back to the words of the Long Live Lord......" Speaking of this, he paused, and said: "Eighth Elder Brother has been sick recently, and he will come to the Criminal Department to order it." ”

When Kangxi heard this, he snorted coldly and threw the fold onto the kang table. Looking at the few ministers kneeling on the ground, there was no joy or anger on his face.

Lai Du's back immediately broke out in a cold sweat, but his mind was very confused.

It stands to reason that even if you want to apply for an official, you should be the Governor of Jiumen and Yin Cai, who is responsible for the security of the inner and outer cities, and Yin Cai, the Shuntian Mansion, how can it be your turn to be in charge of the Criminal Department?

Long Keduo is the cousin and brother-in-law of Long Live Lord, so it's easy to say that this has nothing to do with it; Wang Yi is Shuntian Fuyi, and this case happened in the outer city, which is his jurisdiction, can't you say it?

For a long time, it wasn't until Lai Du's knees were kneeling that he heard Kangxi speak: "Wei Zhu, go to the Zongren Mansion to spread my message, Beile Yinxi, Yanshou and Yan Shou will stop being despicable, and wherever they should walk, they will be lazy and do not go, and stop their silver and rice and subordinate guard officials and deacons." ”

"Hey, slave and maid!" Wei Zhu knelt down and slowly exited the study room, but with a little joy in his heart.

These days, maybe because of the change of seasons, the heart of the master is not right.

He has been on an errand in the Qianqing Palace for more than ten years, and he can read his face the most, and of course he can detect it.

Although the palace and ministers are patting him now, he will not be dizzy and don't know the importance of it, and worry about the master's affairs.

When the Lord was annoyed, he, a slave and maid, treated himself as a wooden pole, and he didn't dare to take a breath of air.

This comes and goes, and the right should be relaxed for a long time. Besides, since he, the deputy head of the Qianqing Palace, went to deliver the decree in person, where is the reason to come back empty-handed?

Even if he is as unruly as Yaerjiang, he is an iron-hat prince, and when he sees him Wei Zhu, he has to speak softly.

Wei Zhu thought of this, his steps became more and more brisk, and after leaving the study room, he sent a little eunuch to the guard.

He is going to pass on the message of the Long Live Lord, and he will arrange manpower from the guard office when he travels.

Wei Zhu sent the little eunuch to go, straightened his collar, flicked his horseshoe sleeves, raised his head and walked towards the gate of the garden.

As soon as I passed the small east gate, I heard someone call with a smile: "Hey, old Wei! ”

But it was the sixteenth elder brother who walked in the direction of Enmu Temple, Wei Zhu hurriedly stopped, turned around, and wanted to give the sixteenth elder brother a thousand.

The sixteenth elder brother took his arm and said with a smile: "It's okay, we don't see more effort, and we will be divided." A few days ago, when you won eighty taels from your master, why didn't you know the rules so well? ”

Wei Zhu was accustomed to being familiar with the sixteenth elder brother, and when he saw him like this, he also smiled and said: "It's all the sixteenth master who loves the slave and the maid, and he rewarded the slave and maid with some silver money." If the slave and maid don't take it, won't they give the sixteenth master face? ”

The sixteenth elder brother glanced at him and said, "Okay, it's good, it's cheap, and it's good!" Look at the future when your hands are itchy, who will accompany you to start the game? ”

Wei Zhu is a waste person, nothing is good, he just loves to gamble.

Because of his status and status, he can't gamble with others, otherwise it will be a sin to lose or win.

Now, he is the first person in the Qianqing Palace, not to mention anything else, after a year, he will say that the silver money rewarded by the lords of the inner court, as well as the grace of the three festivals and two birthdays in a year, are enough for him to chew for half a lifetime.

In addition, people outside use various names to pay homage, even if they leave the palace now, they can spend a few lifetimes.

He really didn't lack money, but his heart was empty, just looking for fun.

Hearing that the sixteenth elder brother said that he would not play with him in the future, Wei Zhu's face immediately smiled, and he bowed down and said, "Don't mind, Sixteenth Master, don't you want the life of a slave?" The slave maid knew that the last time she won the sixteenth master's private money, the sixteenth master was not happy. Or, take some effort in the past two days, and the slave maid will accompany the sixteenth master to play two more tricks? At the end, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of pinching the dice with his fingers.

Seeing him so flattering, the sixteenth elder brother couldn't help laughing and said: "Just play, it's just that whether you are worried about letting the master win back, or worrying about getting two more hands from the master, but only you understand it in your heart......"

While the two were talking, the little eunuch who had just gone to the guard had returned.

Seeing that the sixteenth elder brother was also there, the little eunuch first greeted the sixteenth elder brother, and then replied to Wei Zhu: "Lord Chief, the little one has already communicated with Master Fu, and four guards have been sent over there to take a shortcut to lead the horse, saying that they are waiting for the chief manager at the gate of the garden." ”

Wei Zhu already had a smile on his face, nodded, and sent the little eunuch back.

The sixteenth elder brother glanced at the back of the little eunuch, turned his head, and asked, "Old Wei, is this an errand?" Do you want to go into town? ”

Wei Zhu nodded, looked around, and saw that there was no one nearby, so he walked to the side of the sixteenth elder brother, and whispered about the three adults of the Criminal Department, the Infantry Army, and the Criminal Department, as well as the long live dictation.

This is not his broken mouth, but even if he doesn't say it now, the sixteenth elder brother will know the details in the future. Rather than hiding it, it would be better to say so, but it would seem that they have a close relationship with each other.

When the sixteenth elder brother heard that the eighth elder brother and the Wenbeiler longevity had stopped the rice, he couldn't help but be surprised, and said with a little doubt: "Is it him?" This is a strange thing. He didn't discipline his precious son at home, how could he think of making such a fuss? ”

But I don't know if I was asking Wei Zhu or talking to myself.

For the prince of these clans, although Wei Zhu also looked down on him in his heart, he didn't dare to show it on his face.

There are some gossip, the sixteenth elder brother said, he, who is a slave, can't say half a word.

Otherwise, if you can't meet the situation, it will become a sin to lose your head.

Wei Zhu also expects that he will live a long life, and when he is old, he will go out to raise his honor, and he will be waited for a few years. Therefore, he pursed his lips and said nothing.

Although Wei Zhu didn't see the excerpt, the sixteenth elder brother had already gotten the news before, and knew that it was the minions of the Winbeiler Mansion who "broke into the private house".

From the beginning of the fire to now, it has not been more than two days, and the case has been solved?

Even if there is no one else behind the scenes, even if it is bad, but the Humberle Mansion is bullying people, and there are people who "behave despicably", it should not be the extension of the ribbon in the near sixties, but the notorious favor.

It's just that there seems to be something wrong with this.

The sixteenth elder brother narrowed his eyes and couldn't help muttering in his heart. Although Hui Hui has a bad reputation, and after three or five months, there have been rumors of bullying men and women, and fights and brawls, but there has been no great evil in these years.

Otherwise, there would have been an impeachment by the imperial envoy, and the Zongren Mansion would also deal with it, how could he be allowed to be at large?

Although he is a bit of a bastard, after all, he is the concubine of Baylor Mansion, and he is also taught by various rules. Even if it's nonsense, it's just a minor evil.

Why is it like eating a leopard's gall, killing people and setting fire?

Not to mention that the people living there are not ordinary people, but people who are very gege...... Wei Zhu looked at the sky and felt a little anxious. If you don't leave the garden, I'm afraid you won't be able to return at night.

With a little embarrassment, he whispered: "Sixteenth master, this slave ...... maid"

The sixteenth elder brother was interrupted by him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Let's go, the master will enter the city with you." Why did this half-buried man of Wembylor still have the idea of beating the little widow? ”

Wei Zhu pursed his lips, but he didn't have any sympathy.

The people inside and outside the palace in this palace, he only made friends with Cao Yan and the sixteenth elder brother.

This Humbelle dares to make people rob the Cao family's doorman, isn't that a slap in the face of the Cao family's father and son?

These yellow-belted masters, few of them are not shabby, and they all have eyes on the top of their heads. Even if he stammered Wei Zhu, outside the words, he didn't forget to put the master's score.

In addition to carrying cages and driving birds, listening to dramas and playing horns, what else will you do? I really can't complain that others look down on them, it's all fucking waste.

Wei Zhu is not confused in his heart, he knows who is really good to him and who is fake.

When he was a little Sulla, who of those men had ever given him a look.

Even if he saw it, he just thought it was a cat or a dog, threw a golden melon seed, wrinkled his nose, and sent him away by volatilization.

Because of the crippled body, many of the attendants in the palace were sparse when they relieved their hands, and they had the smell of urine scratching on their bodies.

It's not uncommon for those gentlemen to cover their noses, but his little Wei Zhu was on an errand in the Qianqing Palace because he was young, and he was the most clean and didn't let himself have a little smell.

Despite this, there are few masters who are not disgusted to say a few words to him.

It's as if as long as you are a eunuch, your body is scratched, and if you get close, you will smoke them.

Bullshit, when I saw Liang Jiugong, why didn't anyone dare to act like this? stuttered, as if he had seen a brother and a brother.

Wei Zhu knew that in the eyes of the powerful, he was just an ant, not even a thing. Although he flatters the grand dukes with a smile every day, he is very diligent and clever, but his heart is also depressed.

At this time, it was just in time for Cao Yan to enter the palace on an errand.

The first time someone didn't avoid him, although his attitude was lukewarm, and he took him like an ordinary person, Wei Zhu was very grateful.

In this world, how many people can treat him as a human being?

One time later, the sixteenth elder brother and Wei Zhu had already left the garden, and several guards from the guard office were already waiting here with their horses.

Although the sixteenth elder brother wants to return to the city, but his status is precious, how dare these guards act in vain?

After sending someone again, he called the guards of the sixteenth elder brother, and the group returned to the city quickly...... After entering the city, the sixteenth elder brother and Wei Zhu went to the Zongren Mansion located in Mixiang, Dongjiang.

Yarjianga was about to fall into the palace, and when he heard that there was a long live lord's message, he hurriedly welcomed the two into the middle hall.

The matter of delaying the suspension of silver and rice, Yarjianga was not surprised.

The fire was so big the night before, and those people died, and the silver and rice were all light, and I couldn't say that I would take the knighthood next.

Among them, it doesn't seem to be the eighth brother's business? Although Yarjianga was surprised in his heart, his face was as usual.

After kneeling and listening to the commandment, he got up and said to the sixteenth elder brother, "Why did you alarm you too?" Cao Yan is not in Beijing, and he is still in Beijing, can their family still suffer? ”

The sixteenth elder brother laughed twice and said: "It's boring, wandering around, moving and moving ......" Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at the sky outside, and said: "It's still bright this day, if Brother Wang is interested, let's go to the beekeeping meccale?" ”

Although Yan Shou took the initiative to admit his guilt, Yarjianga was not a fool, so he naturally saw that it was wrong.

It's just that he loves to enjoy, not idle, whether it's killing or setting fire, as long as he doesn't provoke him, what is his love.

Hearing that the sixteenth elder brother was going to beekeeping, Yaerjianga frowned and persuaded: "Little sixteen, my brother advises you not to get involved in this, and carefully made mud." With the protection of the Long Live Lord, the Cao family is fine. I'm afraid that Yan Shou also regrets his intestines, the Cao family is a person who is a long-lived lord, and this dog still needs to be ...... by the owner."
