Chapter 116: "Adulterous Thief" Becomes a Demon

Zhong Wuregret didn't live in the place he arranged, and Dr. Pan was a little disappointed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Zhong Wuregret chartered the largest green building in the city, "Orchid Fang", and lived in it, and all the girls in the "Orchid Fang" were sent to other green buildings to live temporarily, and the houses around this green building were also requisitioned by Zhong Wuregret.

The entrance of the Orchid Workshop is guarded by Zhong Wuregret's guardian, and no one is allowed to enter without Zhong Wuregret's permission.

On the day Zhong Wuregret arrived in Duyi, he received an urgent report from the King of Chu, who happily told him that he was ready to make Concubine Yuan the queen.

Zhong Wuregret thought about it for a long time, he only remembered that the wife of King Zhuang's main palace seemed to be written in the history books was Fan Ji, and she was one of the virtuous concubines praised in the past dynasties. In Zhong Wuregret's memory of the concubine in the palace, he had no impression of Concubine Yuan at all, if there was really a particularly outstanding concubine, King Chu would have told him a long time ago.

Zhong Wuregret used to watch too many harem dramas, fighting for concubines, fighting for queens, being used by others, etc., all of which are major events involving countless heads falling to the ground, and now, a round concubine suddenly appeared next to King Chu, and this matter must not be careless.

At the beginning, after Zhong Wuregret heard the news from Chanjuan that the Queen Mother wanted the King of Chu to become the queen, he immediately talked to the King of Chu and asked the King of Chu to act cautiously. He was very afraid that the King of Chu would be unable to control himself when he encountered a beauty.

Zhao Feiyan and Yang Guifei, which one is not a city and country with their appearance, but they are all full of scheming, causing immeasurable losses to the country and the family! Almost every story of the Immediate Queen's life is intertwined with the strange intrigues of the court.

The struggle between the women in the palace is always the most cruel and ruthless struggle. "The wasp tail is on the needle, the most poisonous woman's heart" was vividly interpreted in the palace.

The Zhao Feiyan sisters are extremely beautiful, although they are favored, but they have never been pregnant, they are afraid that other concubines will get pregnant and give birth to children, threatening the queen, so they frantically destroy the palace people. "Those who give birth are killed, and countless abortions are performed." At that time, there was a nursery rhyme among the people that "Yan Fei came, pecked the emperor's grandson".

Have a child! Zhong Wuregret was suddenly shocked, it was terrible not to be able to have children, and it was even more terrible to be pregnant with other people's children!

Zhong Wuregret knows the two most typical examples of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

One is Qin Shi Huang. It is said that during the period of the Qin State Prime Minister LΓΌ Buwei in the Zhao State, he had an affair with a Handan courtesan Zhao Ji, and after knowing that she was pregnant, at a banquet, he dedicated this singer to the King of Qin Zhuang Xiang, and a few months later, Zhao Ji gave birth to his son Mingzheng, which was later unified by Qin Shi Huang to win the government, LΓΌ Buwei took advantage of this matter to sit on the throne.

The other is the affairs of the state of Chu a few hundred years later. It is said that Li Yuan, a native of Zhao, defected to Yin Huang Xie of the Chu State, and he dedicated his sister who was quite beautiful and could sing and dance to Huang Xie. Her sister was deeply pampered and became pregnant a month later. After she became pregnant, she used Huang Xie to come forward, pretending that she was an unmarried beauty, and strongly recommended it to King Chu Kaoli to enter the Chu Palace. Later, the crown prince born to Li Yuan's sister ascended the throne, and Li Yuan killed Yin Huangxie and got the position of prime minister.

It would be terrifying if this was the case with Concubine Yuan. The person who can have such a deep plan and come up with this strategy must be Pan Chong, only he can get the internal response in the palace and carefully arrange. As far as the current situation is concerned, no matter how long Dou Yuejiao's hand is, it can't reach into the palace.

Zhong Wuregret was anxious, and immediately sent back an urgent report to the King of Chu, asking the King of Chu to delay for a while, and he would find out the details of Concubine Yuan as soon as possible before deciding the matter. He also specifically mentioned that the imperial doctor went to secretly check whether Concubine Yuan was pregnant.

As soon as the messenger sent by Zhong Wuregret left the city, several more knights with swords appeared and followed him.

On the night that Zhong Wuregret entered the city, a heinous rape and murder occurred among a wealthy businessman.

The daughter of this wealthy merchant is a well-known beauty in the city, both talented and beautiful, she has just turned fifteen years old this year, and has married a famous family in Duyi to Qin and Jin, if it were not for this great drought, the two families would have been married.

In the middle of the night, the two nursing homes of the wealthy merchant heard the sound of someone whispering, and someone whispered: "Lord Zhong, Miss's boudoir is upstairs here." ”

The two nurses followed the sound, but no one was seen, one was killed, and the other was seriously injured and passed out.

The next day, the rich merchant had not seen his daughter and maid come downstairs for a long time, so he sent the maidservant to call, but as soon as the maid entered the house, she fainted with fright.

In the young lady's boudoir, the young lady did not blink, lying on the bed with her whole body, her hands were bound by a red satin, a wooden stick was inserted between her legs, and blood flowed all over the ground.

Her personal maid was also **** all over her body, and her legs were covered with red and white stains.

The first thing the seriously injured nurse said after he was rescued by the doctor was: "It's a thief surnamed Zhong." After saying that, he fainted again.

The wealthy businessman and his wife were so grief-stricken that they cried and cried to find the county secretary to submit an appeal, asking the county secretary to be their master, and the county secretary here was also Pan Chong's man.

In a lobby, the wealthy businessman and the county secretary sat on the ground. According to the practice of the time, there was no seat at the table during the prison proceedings. The rich merchant cried: "Lord Si Defeat, my little girl was killed by the Zhong lewd thief, and I ask the lord to arrest the prostitute and make the decision for the people." ”

Si Wei asked, "Do you have any evidence that your little girl was killed by Zhong Lust and Thief?" ”

"There's still a testimony here." With that, the wealthy merchant carried the injured nurse in.

Si Yu said to the nursing court: "If you want to testify against Lord Zhong, do you dare to swear here?" ”

"I dare!" After the wounded nurse took the oath, he said: "I have heard with my own ears and seen with my own eyes, that the thief came over the wall to the downstairs of the young lady, and when we were about to go up to stop them, they knocked them down, because their martial arts are too high, we are not opponents, my companion died, and I was seriously injured and fainted." ”

Perhaps afraid of the owner's blame, this nurse has done a little processing on the basis of reality. He thought that if he heard someone say "Lord Zhong", then it must be Lord Zhong who killed the young lady, so he added the untrue words he had seen with his own eyes.

According to the decree of the state of Chu, Zhong Wuregret was called to the scene of the prison lawsuit to testify. However, Zhong Wuregret just said: "I never did this." The county secretary sent him away.

After a while, when Si Wei came in again, he pointed to the rich merchant's guard and said, "Lord Zhong said that there is no such thing at all, he said, you are deliberately framing him, and he asked me to ask you who asked you to do this." ”

After speaking, he pointed to the two people behind him and said, "They are Lord Zhong's guards, they said that Lord Zhong has not left the Orchid Workshop all night, if you talk nonsense, be careful of your life." ”

"I swore that I would never talk nonsense, even if it was ......" Before the nurse could finish speaking, the two guards, unable to help but say, stepped forward and killed the courtyard in front of the rich businessman.

Then the two walked up to the rich merchant and said, "Our lords are here to help the disaster and help the suffering, if you dare to talk nonsense like this nursing home, be careful that your head is not protected, if the whole family wants to live, quickly send a thousand taels of silver to the orchid workshop." As he spoke, he shook the blood-stained knife in front of the rich merchant a few times, but the poor rich businessman opened his mouth twice, and without spitting out a word, his eyes rolled and he fainted.

The rich merchant went back all the way crazy, and he kept babbling in his mouth: "Lord Zhong doesn't allow us to say that he did it, and Lord Zhong doesn't allow us to say that he did it......"

"Now Lord Zhong is no longer a thief, he has cultivated to become a ****." This rumor spread like the wind throughout the capital. Even the people around the "Orchid Workshop" who had daughters quietly moved away overnight.

Zhong Wuregret didn't bring too much food, and he worked hard to bring the silver taels for disaster relief, but found that it was useless, and there was no food to buy in Duyi. Even if he came to visit, whether it was a merchant or a local famous family, he was sure that there was no food.

Why did the hungry die of hunger? It's not that there is no food, but in the year of the disaster, the price of food is too high for them to buy, and even their children are sold, what else do they have to exchange for money? There is grain in stock, but it is sold at a price, and there must be someone making trouble if there is no grain in the market!

Disaster relief is not Zhong Wuregret's business alone, he came on behalf of the king of Chu, and one of his responsibilities is to urge the officials below to work hard for disaster relief.

He was determined to visit Dr. Pan, the local governor.

Dr. Pan received him happily. "Hiding a knife in a smile!" Knowing this, Zhong Wuregret also made a very happy appearance and met with Dr. Pan.

"Doctor Pan, you see that this disaster is not light, is there any way to let these people survive the famine?" Zhong asked humbly.

"Difficult! It's hard! Dr. Pan sighed and said, "The famine can only be solved by mobilizing surplus grain from other places to make up for the apology with abundance." ”

"Now that the disaster is serious, there are too many people starving to death, and if it is delayed for one more day, many people will die. Zhong Wuregret asked.

"Well, this one!" Dr. Pan pretended to think for a moment before he said, "Actually, there is a place not far from us where there is a lot of surplus grain, and it is only a three-day journey from us. ”

"In that case, why don't you go and buy food?" Zhong Wuregret is strange.

"For we have to pass through a ravine, and there is a dangerous pass occupied by thieves, and the thieves are so great that we have tried to destroy them several times, and we have failed miserably. Our caravan can't get there, and the caravan over there can't come either, so we still don't have any food left. Dr. Pan said and sighed.

"The matter of buying grain is urgent, since you can't exterminate them, I have to try, otherwise, I will have the king's trust!" Zhong Wuregret made a sad look.

Hearing this, Dr. Pan's eyes lit up, and he said: "We have heard that Master Zhong is like a god in his army, and now there are adults who go to hunt down thieves, I dare to say that it will be a success, this is the blessing of the disaster victims, and the blessing of all of us!" ”

"Soldiers like gods? When did I lead a soldier, I had to shoot the sycophants on the back! Zhong Wuregret secretly issued an authentic "Beijing scolding" in his heart.

"Alas" Zhong Wuregret sighed, pretending to regret and said: "Although I want to go to arrest the thieves myself and buy food as soon as possible, it is a pity that there are no available soldiers in my hands, so I can think about this matter slowly in the future." ”

As soon as he heard that Zhong Wuregret immediately retreated, Dr. Pan couldn't wait to say: "This matter is easy to solve, as long as Lord Zhong has a heart, I can send Sima to lead the troops with you, how about it?" ”

"Borrow a knife to kill! Maybe before he saw the thief in the army, he was killed by Sima and then pushed on the thief. Zhong Wuregret grasped their true intentions.

"Go, or not." Zhong Wuregret did not answer immediately. (To be continued.) )
