Liu Chengfeng was silent for a moment, and then said to Wang Siguan: "Let's go, take the question to see that Li Shun." Bayi Chinese Network"

Wang Si nodded his head and led Liu Chengfeng to a firewood room in the back office, which was guarded by several captains. Liu Chengfeng raised his hand and said, "Don't be polite, go and open the firewood room." ”

The lieutenant hurriedly opened the key, opened the door and walked in first, and shouted to the people inside: "Don't pretend to be dead, your lord is here." ”

After kicking a few times and not moving, the lieutenant squatted down, probed Li Shun's snort, and then exclaimed: "My lord, this Li Shun is dead." ”

"Dead?" Liu Chengfeng was taken aback, walked in quickly, and asked someone to take the lamp, only to see that Li Shun had a bamboo stick on his chest and passed through his chest. The blood was spilled all over the ground, and it had long since dried up. His hands, resting on one end of the bamboo stick, were obviously chā into his chest with the bamboo stick.

"Suicide ......" Liu Chengfeng was speechless, at this time, he admired Li Shun's toughness, but he was a little admired, he committed suicide with a bamboo strip in the firewood room, this person definitely has great courage, and he didn't let out a shout in the process of self-harm, otherwise the captain outside would have opened the firewood door and rushed in to stop it, which shows how calm he is in the face of death.

After such a big incident, several lieutenants were already frightened into a cold sweat, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "My lord, the lowly ones are not well cared for, please forgive me." ”

Liu Chengfeng had a calm face, not knowing what he was thinking, and then scolded, and said, "What's the panic, go, call those people in prison, I have something to ask." ”

The lieutenants rushed to call for someone as if they had been granted amnesty, and these seconded people, because they were on official business, only rested in the flower hall in the backyard, and they were called at once. Several people were also startled when they heard that Li Shun was dead, ran over to take a look, and examined Li Shun's body, and the leader of them breathed a sigh of relief.

If the cause of Li Shun's death was due to improper punishment, they had to bear the responsibility, and when they came, they heard from others. This is a big case, there is no room for mistakes, otherwise no one can afford to be held accountable, and now the cause of Li Shun's death is self-harm, so this is the captain who guards here, anyway, it has nothing to do with himself.

Liu Chengfeng frowned and asked them, "Look, when you were in prison, did you ever see this method of self-harm?" ”

These people are all old fritters in prisons, and it is common for prisoners to harm themselves. Especially those who can be looked down upon by the town government department, some of them committed suicide in prison in order not to involve others, and the captains of these edicts checked it. One of them smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, I have never seen such a way of dying, I have only heard that someone committed suicide with poison yào and white silk, but I have never seen anyone commit suicide with bamboo thorns, adults think about it, how painful it must be to stab the heart with bamboo thorns?" What's more, this bamboo thorn is not sharp, but I am afraid that there will not be an hour. You can't stab yourself. But looking at Li Shun's face, he was very peaceful when he died, and he had been a poor man for so many years, and he had never seen such a self-harm. ”

Liu Chengfeng is a doctor. In fact, I had already seen this, and called them in to inquire, but it was just to confirm the thoughts in my heart. This Li Shun withstood a night of torture, and he could choose to commit suicide in this way, and he still maintained his calmness, this person is really terrifying.

But then again, suicide is nothing to a man unless there is something more terrible to him than death. But the problem came up again, even if he was afraid to continue living. But why can he die so calmly?

Liu Chengfeng has dealt with medicine, and of course knows how painful it is to commit suicide. And Li Shun's death is really difficult to use common sense.

Liu Chengfeng's eyes narrowed quietly, and then he said lightly: "This matter, if anyone spreads it, they don't have to live, everyone still comes here every day to 'interrogate' according to the previous plan, for us, Li Shun is dead, but outsiders, Li Shun must live, do you understand?" ”

Liu Chengfeng's words, who dared not agree, so they said: "Obey." ”

Liu Chengfeng had a cold face and came out of the firewood room, and the Wang priest hurriedly caught up, and said as he walked: "My lord, what should I do now?" ”

Liu Chengfeng sighed: "As soon as Li Shun dies, all the clues will be broken, Your Majesty, I have already made a military order, and I have to find out the cause and effect of this matter." If you can't find out ......" Liu Chengfeng said lightly: "Presumably, in Your Majesty's heart, there will definitely be a bad impression." What's more, this case is still involved with me, and I am really a little worried about not finding out the people behind it. ”

Wang Si said: "My lord just let people not let Li Shun's death go out, do you want to spread suspicions......

Liu Chengfeng interrupted him with a smile: "Actually, speaking of which, the people behind this Li Shun are most likely two, one is Xiao Jing, the eunuch of Dongchang, and the other is King Ning." ”

Xiao Jing is easy to understand, after all, this Li Shun heard that he is the miscellaneous servant of the ceremonial supervisor, so this Dongchang eunuch Xiao Jing is the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, and it is easy to instruct Li Shun. But King Ning ......

Wang Si glanced at Liu Chengfeng and said, "What do you mean, Li Shun may be related to Mingjiao?" ”

Liu Chengfeng smiled faintly and said, "I didn't say it, but it is true that King Ning and Mingjiao seem to have some relationship, and it is logical that King Ning wants to put me to death." He wants to buy a eunuch, or rather, this Li Shun is a person from Mingjiao at all, then his death makes sense, you see, Li Shun died very peacefully, could it be that he really believed in the nonsense of Mingjiao, and thought that it was not possible for people to go to the Western Heaven after death. ”

The priest smiled bitterly: "So, what do you want to do?" ”

Liu Chengfeng said: "What else can I do, King Ning and his son will go back to Nanchang Mansion in a few days, let's start with him first, you call some people, watch King Ning's line, see what is happening on his side, take a look first." ”

The king replied.

Liu Chengfeng frowned, then returned to the duty room, asked someone to take the pen and ink, and began to practice calligraphy, now this calligraphy, has become his way to relieve pressure, this matter, from beginning to end is full of a kind of weird, can instruct the people who move the ceremonial eunuchs, there may not be a few in this capital, there are not many people who frame themselves and want to put themselves to death, but just yet, Li Shun is dead, and the way of death is also strange, Liu Chengfeng suddenly remembered something, put down the pen, and then called a person to come, and said: "Where is this Li Shun's hometown." , who is in the family, also check it, don't miss it at all. ”

Guangroji Temple.

Still as usual, every early in the morning, someone went out to invite someone to pick the spring water of Bixi Spring outside the city to come in, this spring water is for Ning Wang Zhu Jinjun to make tea, Zhu Jinjun is elegant, proficient in tea art, came to this capital, heard that the spring water of Bixi Spring is good, so his entourage, every day will send him the clear spring dozens of miles away.

The errand on duty was idle, and the living of King Ning's father and son was originally taken care of by them, but their father and son brought many retinues from Nanchang Mansion, and they were not allowed to do anything about living and guarding, so they were also happy to be idle.

However, inside and outside this Guanglu Temple, there are arrangements for King Ning's garrison, there are a lot of secret posts in Minggang, and the degree of strictness is extraordinary, so that the firewood and charcoal Weng who usually supply this Guanglu Temple can't help but complain in their hearts, usually go in from the back door to put firewood and grass, charcoal, and indirectly entertain the familiar errand officer, but now, it is all the way to check, I don't know how much time it has been delayed.

The place where Zhu Jinjun lived was called the Junzi Pavilion, which was originally just a place to entertain the envoys of the vassal ministers, according to the rules, Zhu Jinjun was condescending. However, Zhu Jinjun said that this name is elegant, so he moved here to live, but the people in Guanglu Temple did not think so, thinking that this King Ning liked the seclusion of this gentleman's pavilion, because the location of this attic is in the corner of the northeast, usually no one will come and go, plus there are forests all around, if you don't get close, no one knows what happened here.

In this gentleman's pavilion, Zhu Jinjun finished washing, sat in the flower hall and drank a sip of tea, after a while, Zhu Chenhao came, Zhu Chenhao came in a little slowly, and it was not polite to come here, and indirectly sat down in the seat of the next head, and then said: "Father, that person is dead......

"Dead?" Zhu Jinjun's eyes closed, and then he smiled faintly and said: "It doesn't matter if you die, when you walk on the road, you will inevitably have stumbling stones, and if you kick them away, you won't be afraid of falling." ”

Zhu Chenhao said happily: "I just don't know what actions will be made on the side of the guard......

Zhu Jinjun interrupted him and said, "What actions do they have, and what does it have to do with this king?" We will go back to Jiangxi tomorrow, and we don't have to worry about the affairs here. ”

"Father, will you leave tomorrow?" Zhu Chenhao was stunned for a moment and continued: "Didn't you say how many days you have to wait?" ”

Zhu Jinjun shook his head and said: "Originally, I wanted to stay longer, and the palace also had the intention of retaining, but just now my father has already asked someone to hand over a farewell note, as long as the palace nods, let's leave tomorrow." This capital is a good place, but my father feels that there is always a kind of strangeness in the capital, as if something is brewing, our roots are still in Jiangxi for the time being, for the sake of safety, we should go back immediately. ”

Zhu Chenhao tasted Zhu Jinjun's words and said, "Isn't my father afraid of the East Window incident?" ”

Zhu Jinjun snorted coldly from his nasal voice: "What about the incident in the east window, we are the vassal kings, there is no ironclad evidence, no one can take us seriously, you can relax." ”

Zhu Chenhao still wanted to say something, but Zhu Jinjun was swinging, don't ask more. ”

Zhu Chenhao had no choice but to say, "Yes." (To be continued)
