Luoyang Ling, named Shen Yanqi, is forty years old and three.

This person was in the second year of the last century, that is, in 675 A.D., Jinshi and the first, and was moved from Xielulang to Wailang, the examiner. Later, he was imprisoned for taking bribes, but he was released from prison and reinstated soon after, becoming Wu Zetian's extremely favored person, and later moved to the middle of the matter.

This person has a mixed reputation in history.

He is as famous as Song Zhiwen, and is called 'Shen Song', and he is a representative of the lawyer's style.

Later generations have commented: Shen Song's new voice, Yan Xu's generous stroke, and the early Tang Dynasty gradually flourished.

Shen Song is Shen Yan and Song Zhiwen, and Yan Xu is Su Ying and Zhang Shuo. It can be seen that in the literary world, Shen Yanqi is definitely a grandmaster-level status. However, later generations will affirm his poems when they talk about them, but when they talk about his personality, they generally have a contemptuous attitude, and they are extremely disdainful of the virtue and character of the Shen Yan period.

In fact, Shen Yan was favored for 30 years, and basically made poems by the emperor's side, and did not hold real power.

This time he temporarily received the Luoyang Order, also because Zhang Tongxiu was demoted, and Wu Zetian couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while, so he asked Shen Yan to temporarily take the position of Luoyang Order. Once there is a suitable candidate, Shen Yanqi will still return to Wu Zetian's side.

Yang Shouwen knew Shen Zhiqi, and he also knew Song Zhi's question.

But I don't know much about this person, just like he knows He Zhizhang, but only He Zhizhang's poems.

In the Yali of Luoyang County, Yang Shouwen met this literary master who had a mixed reputation in later generations.

Forty-three-year-old Shen Yanqi looks very thin and dresses very simply, like an uncle next door.

"Aoyuki. I had something yesterday because of something. Failed to participate in the General Immortal Meeting. But I don't want to miss a good story. ”

When Shen Yanqi saw Yang Shouwen, he was very polite and respectful.

This is also normal, Yang Shouwen was able to make a name for himself at the General Immortal Conference yesterday and show his might. Even a person like Shen Yanqi will admire it after hearing about it. If Yang Shouwen is only two or three masterpieces, Shen Yanqi may not be like this. But eighty-one songs...... Even if Shen Yanqi is a grandmaster. In front of Yang Shouwen, he will not be pretentious.

Yang Shouwen hurriedly bowed down and said: "The county is polite, yesterday the kid just ate too much wine and went crazy with alcohol." ”

When Shen Yanqi heard this, he laughed: "Qingzhi, if everyone can make you drunkard, I believe the saint will be very happy." ”

"Yun Qing, what the hell is going on, you still sent someone to summon Qingzhi?"

He Zhizhang is an old-fashioned and warm-hearted person, especially when he ate a jar of Qingping at Yang Shouwen's house last night, and he regarded Yang Shouwen as a confidant.

Yang Shouwen was recruited to the county government. He Zhizhang also followed.

With him there, even if Luoyang Ling wants to be unfavorable to Yang Shouwen. You have to think about one or two.

Not to mention that although he and Shen Yanqi are not friends, they also have some friendships......

When Shen Yanqi heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"My county order is just a temporary replacement.

I thought that Ping'an would be the new county commander to take office, but I didn't expect it...... Aoyuki, let me ask you, do you have a servant named Zabusu in your family? ”

"Zabusu?"

Yang Shouwen was stunned for a moment, feeling that this name was somewhat familiar.

"I'm a little vague about this, but the name is somewhat familiar."

"It's a Tibetan person."

"Oh, I remember!"

Speaking of the Tubo people, Yang Shouwen immediately remembered where this Zabusu was sacred.

Isn't this guy the slave that Zheng Lingzhi sent to him? remembers that he is very good at water, and he also helped Yang Shouwen explore the water gate of the pool in the house. However, Yang Shouwen didn't know much about him. On weekdays, Zabusu works in the front yard, mainly managed by Wuyou and Yang Congyi. As the head of the family, how can he have the energy to pay attention to this Zabusu?

"So, this Zabusu was bought by Captain Zheng at the bazaar?"

"Yes!"

Yang Shouwen asked suspiciously: "County Zun, what trouble did Zabusu cause?" ”

"Woe?"

When Shen Yanqi heard this, he shook his head with a smile, "He didn't cause trouble for me, but he might cause trouble for you, Qingzhi." ”

Speaking of this, Shen Yanqi paused for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "In the early hours of this morning, someone found Zabusu's body at the Lishe Bridge. ”

"Rishibashi?"

Without waiting for Yang Shouwen to speak, He Zhizhang couldn't help but say, "Isn't the bridge already abandoned?" ”

"Yes, the Lishe Bridge was abandoned as early as the third year of Hamheng, and it was forbidden for cars and horses to pass through the bridge, but pedestrians were still allowed to walk. However, Ji Zhen, you should know that the Luoshui surged in the spring of last year, which washed away the Lishe Bridge and has never been repaired.

The bridge was barely walked, deserted.

But this morning, Wuhou, who was patrolling the streets, found Zabusu's body at the bridge, and he didn't know why he was there. ”

As he spoke, Shen Yanqi looked at Yang Shouwen.

Yang Shouwen smiled bitterly: "I got drunk in Shendu Garden yesterday, and after I came back, I continued to eat with Ji Zhen and Su Tingshuo...... Well, I don't remember that anymore. After that, I slept until dawn, and I had just woken up when the people of the county had passed. ”

He thought for a moment, and then continued: "That Zabusu was sent by my uncle, and he has been working in the front yard ever since.

I only met him once, and I still asked him to go into the water to investigate the water gate of the pool at home, and I knew that he was very good at water...... Other than that, I don't know anything about this person. Even if there was something, he ordered Wuyou and Yang Congyi, and he never saw him again. ”

"So, isn't it the Rishibashi Bridge that Qingzhi sent him to?"

When Yang Shouwen heard this, he shook his head again and again, "I don't even know where the Lishi Bridge is, what are you sending him to do?"

My previous situation, the county will not be unclear. I didn't have any friends after I arrived in Luoyang, and I rarely went out and about. ”

Of course, Shen Yanqi is clear about this.

He had been by Wu Zetian's side before, and Wu Zetian's attitude towards Yang Shouwen could generally be seen by him.

Hearing Yang Shouwen say this, he couldn't help laughing.

"But I was reckless, don't blame Qingzhi."

"County Zun, I don't know where Zabusu's body is?"

"Still at the Lishu Bridge!" Shen Yan said: "I heard that Zabusu is Qingzhi's house slave, so I sent someone to invite you." It's just that the bridge is too broken. Thinking about how to let Aoyuki go over there. There is some slackness. That's why I waited at the county office. ”

Yang Shouwen thought for a while and said, "I wonder if I can go and check?" ”

"Oh?"

Yang Shouwen hurriedly said: "The county respected forgot? My father was originally a lieutenant of Changping County, and I have been with my father since I was a child, so I am no stranger to this kind of murder. Although Nazhabsu was a house slave given to me by my uncle, he entered the door of my Yang family and was a member of my Yang family. My people were killed in Luoyang, and I, who is Ah Lang, must go over and take a look. ”

I don't know why. Yang Shouwen noticed that Shen Yanqi's gaze at him suddenly softened a lot.

"Since Qingzhi said so, let's go for a while."

As he spoke, he looked at He Zhizhang, "Ji Zhen, are you going?" ”

"Go, of course!"

He Zhizhang smiled: "Since you have already come, how can you not go and have a look?" ”

I always feel that this guy is going to see the excitement, but in fact, who died. He doesn't care.

Shen Yanqi immediately took Yang Shouwen and He Zhizhang out of the yamen and went straight to Lishe Bridge.

Nari Shibu Bridge. Facing the two cities of the north and south, it was originally a pontoon bridge. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the Lishe Bridge was damaged, and when Tang Gaozong Li Zhi was fortunate in Luoyang in the second year of Xianqing, he saw that the middle bridge was destroyed in the flood, so he ordered it to be repaired. The bridge was also rebuilt once in tow. However, in the third year of Xianheng, Si Nongqing Wei Ji built the palace room of the eastern capital, and built a new middle bridge in the east of the middle bridge, facing the Changxia Gate in the south and Cao Canal in the north. The bridge was also abandoned because it was too close to the new middle bridge.

Zabusu was found south of the Lishe Bridge.

Yang Shouwen and others crossed Luoshui from Xinzhong Bridge and came to the south of Luoyang City.

After arriving at the Lishu Bridge, I saw a chubby man in an official uniform greet him. It wasn't hot, but the fat man was already sweating profusely. He took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead as he walked, looking extremely embarrassed.

"This is Luoyang Weizhuang Bifan."

Shen Yanqi turned his head to introduce Yang Shouwen, then stepped forward and talked to Zhuang Bifan.

Zhuang Bifan spoke with a thick Bashu accent.

Yang Shouwen couldn't help but glance at him, and then shifted his gaze to the white cloth at the head of the bridge. Under the white cloth, it should be Zabusu's corpse. He walked over, crouched down, and lifted the white cloth, revealing a corpse.

"You, you, what are you doing?"

Zhuang Bifan was taken aback when he saw Yang Shouwen lifting the white cloth, and hurriedly came over to stop him.

Shen Yanqi stopped him, "Lao Zhuang, this Zabusu is Qingzhi's house slave."

His father used to be the governor of Changping County, and he was also very familiar with this aspect of things, so he accompanied the county to check it out. ”

"He is Yang Qingzhi?"

"Exactly."

Zhuang Bifan immediately showed a respectful look, and looking at Yang Shouwen's gaze, it became different.

"The body had no obvious wounds, and it looked more like it had drowned after eating too much alcohol."

He accompanied Shen Yanqi to walk behind Yang Shouwen, and explained to Shen Yanqi at the same time.

"Drowning? Are you sure? ”

"Xia Guan has been a county lieutenant for ten years, and he still has this eyesight."

Shen Yanqi nodded and asked in a deep voice, "In that case, can you judge where he drowned?" ”

"This, I'm afraid it's not easy to judge."

At this moment, Yang Shouwen suddenly stood up, turned around and said, "County Zun, this person is definitely not drowning. ”

"Huh?"

Here, Zhuang Bifan just said that he died by drowning, and Yang Shouwen said that he did not drown. Shen Yanqi looked at Yang Shouwen suspiciously, a little dazed. He is not good at dealing with this kind of thing, and poetry is his specialty. In his heart, he believed in Zhuang Bifan more. But Yang Shouwen's words, he was not easy to refute, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Zhuang Bifan's face suddenly turned red, "How can it be." ”

This is a smashing of his job, of course Zhuang Bifan refuses to admit it.

Yang Shouwen said with a smile: "County Lieutenant Hugh is going to be angry, I am not saying this against you, but there are some things that you may not have noticed." ”

"What?"

"County Lieutenant, please look here."

As Yang Shouwen spoke, he stretched out his hand and stabbed it, and then tore off Zabusu's clothes, revealing his chest.

"Can the county lieutenant notice this red mark?"

Zhuang Bifan squatted down and looked in the direction of Yang Shouwen's finger, and saw a looming mark under Zabusu's collarbone. The seal is in the shape of a plum blossom. It's hard to notice if you don't look closely. But even if you see it, many people will take it as a birthmark.

"What is this?"

Yang Shouwen thought for a while, suddenly raised his leg and pulled out a short knife from his waist.

This short knife is still a murder weapon he got from Xiao Jin when he was leveling thorns. I saw Yang Shouwen picking up his clothes, breaking his hakama legs, exposing his legs. On his leg, there is also a scar in the shape of a plum blossom, which is almost exactly the same as the mark on Zabusu's body.

Zhuang Bifan looked at the wound on Yang Shouwen's leg, squatted down again, and observed the wound on Zabusu's body.

"Young Master Yang, it's exactly the same."

Shen Yanqi and He Zhizhang couldn't help but step forward and asked curiously, "Qingzhi, what's going on?" ”

Yang Shouwen put down his leg and put the knife away.

An extremely strange smile appeared on his face, looking at Zabusu's corpse, and he didn't answer for a long time.

After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "Last year, the rebels came to the city of Changping, and I in Changping worked together to resist the attacks of the rebels. However, the night before the rebels retreated, the city's inner response attacked my house and robbed my sister......

The wound on my leg is what it was back then.

This is called the plum blossom needle, and it is a secret weapon that a woman named Mei is good at. She kidnapped my sister-in-law, and I chased from Changping to Raole, and from Rao Le to Shendu, just to find this woman. Unexpectedly, she jumped out by herself...... Hehe, Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky. I'm going to see her, where else can I run this time? (To be continued.) )

PS: Speed up from tomorrow!!
