Chapter Seventy-Five: Detective Zhou Xiaocao (14)
Zhu Mao took the two newly arrived palace maids to meet Emperor Tianze, and Zhu Mao knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty!" ”
Although the old man in front of him was already old and about to die, for him Zhu Mao, it was even more terrifying than a fierce tiger. This person is the master of the world, and his net worth and life are only in the flick of a finger. His respect is in his bones and penetrates his bone marrow.
Emperor Tianze nodded shallowly, took a painkiller pill prepared by the doctor of Tai Hospital, swallowed it with warm water, closed his back for a while, and asked inadvertently: "Minghui, what has that kid been doing recently?" ”
The Minghui mentioned by Emperor Tianze is Liu Minghui, the son of Prince Gong, who is known as the little prince. Others don't know, but Zhu Mao knows that this Master Xing is Liu Minghui's dedication to Emperor Tianze. As a result, Master Xing came up with a method of "burying blessings" and planting the refined "elixir" into people's meridians. As we all know, the elixir contains a large amount of heavy metal mercury, which will inevitably cause the content of mercury in the blood to exceed the standard, resulting in heavy metal poisoning. Emperor Tianze's poisoning is deepening, and it has basically reached the point of hopelessness at present. Later, the young master Jin from the capital was also harmed by this method of burying blessings, and called a rogue bachelor Zhou Xiaocao who did not understand medicine at all to save him, which made Emperor Tianze know the disadvantages of this method of burying blessings, and also knew Liu Minghui's ambition to dedicate Master Xing to himself.
Hearing the Shengshang's question, although he was very afraid that mentioning Prince Gong's father and son would make the emperor unhappy, he still replied stubbornly: "Your Majesty, the prince has been staying in the palace recently, except for a few days ago when he reported a Hu businessman who was in contact with foreign countries and carried private goods, there has been no movement. ”
Emperor Tianze said: "That's it. This Minghui, why did he point the finger at an insignificant little businessman? ”
Zhu Mao bowed his head and said, "This slave doesn't know either. However, the emperor, that Hu Shang's son-in-law, wasn't he extra favored? ”
Emperor Tianze nodded and said, "Yes, I also remembered." But then it's even more weird. It is strange that a small Hu businessman who is far away in Cangzhou, and an insignificant son-in-law who comes to the door, can provoke two groups of people to attack each other. ”
Zhu Mao replied: "Yes, I heard that this method of burying blessings was discovered by this son-in-law. ”
Emperor Tianze came to be interested: "Oh? It seems that this man has some skills. However, how could a capable person be a door-to-door son-in-law, or a door-to-door son-in-law for Hu Shang? Could it be that there is something else hidden in this? ”
Zhu Mao replied: "The slave doesn't know. ”
Emperor Tianze shook his head and sighed: "Zhu Mao, I see that it is going to fail, and I have to leave some people who can be of great use to future generations." These old courtiers now, old and old, ambitious and ambitious, still need to absorb new people. ”
Zhu Mao hurriedly said: "The Holy Spring and Autumn Festival is prosperous, how?"
Emperor Tianze interrupted him and said, "Okay, don't shoot these sycophants anymore." Ever since I saw through Master Xing's scheme, I no longer think about praying for immortality. Throughout the ages, there have been no less than 100 emperors, and how many of them are truly immortal? You immediately send someone to secretly investigate this son-in-law, see his talent and background, and then report it to me. ”
Zhu Mao responded: "Yes, the slave maid immediately went to investigate with the people from the Heavenly Gate." ”
Emperor Tianze said: "No! The people of the Heavenly Gate have been exposed a lot, so let's start to dispatch the people of the Holy Gate. Raising soldiers for a thousand days is used for a while, and it is time for them to do their best. ”
Everyone in the world knows that the emperor has eight secret guards, among which the Heavenly Gate is the highest. But he didn't know that Emperor Tianze also secretly cultivated the Holy Gate. Once the people of the Holy Gate use this as a trick to press the bottom of the box, I don't know if it will have a big impact on the world?
Zheng Zheng, who was tied up with all kinds of flowers, was escorted to the location of the treasury.
Many people don't understand what it means to be tied up, but have just heard of it. Fifty-flower tieing is a way to tie people with a rope around the neck first, and then cut the arms behind the back. The five-flower big tie is divided into small tie and big tie. The so-called small tie is only tied to the hands, and the other parts of the body are not roped. There is a kind of escort binding (also known as wearing a small linen shirt) on the contrary: the prisoner is tied from the neck to the shoulder to the upper arm, the only small arm and hands are not tied, the upper arm is tied backwards, and the neck, shoulders, and upper body are fixed, unable to move, but the lower arm and hands have a certain range of motion. This is to allow the prisoner to not have full freedom during the escort and can barely take care of himself (such as eating, drinking, etc.), otherwise it is called execution. In addition to binding the wrists, the big tie is to bind the arms, or the body, and even the chest, back, neck, arms and other parts are bound with ropes. As for those who are interested, you can search for yourself.
Coming to the location of the secret room, Xie Bingzhou looked at the iron cage that could only enter two people at a time.
Zhou Xiaocao said: "My lord, you can let me and Zheng Zheng go down first, and then you can bring someone down." ”
Xie Bingzhou nodded and said, "That's it." ”
Zhou Xiaocao and Zheng Zheng went down to the secret room first, opened the stone door, and entered the stone room that was still empty. Zheng Zheng looked at the sky with his eyes and snorted coldly in his nose. Zhou Xiaocao said: "You villain, you have been following Master Xie for so many years, and you still hurt him so much." ”
Zheng Zheng whispered into Zhou Xiaocao's ear and said, "Zhu Zi'an and Mouguohu? ”
"What do you say? It's better not to say anything, I don't understand! ”
Zhou Xiaocao really doesn't understand, what is a shaft, what is a country? I don't understand!
However, Zheng Zheng didn't give him another chance, and began to look at the sky again.
Xie Bingzhou came down, but he brought the skinny Zhou Xiaocao's personal bodyguard. I saw that he had a knife at his waist, his body was straight, and he was always on the verge of exploding.
Xie Bingzhou looked around at the empty stone room and asked, "Virtuous nephew, where is the silver?" ”
Zhou Xiaocao smiled: "Please forgive the little nephew for selling it." Wait a while, let Zheng Zheng give the silver with both hands! ”
Xie Bingzhou couldn't wait for Zhou Xiaocao to be arrested and put in prison two days ago, but today he saw that Zhou Xiaocao not only solved the serial murder case, but also had the hope of finding the stolen official silver from the treasury, and immediately became a virtuous nephew again.
Zhou Xiaocao pointed to the iron cage and said, "Lord Xie, please follow me into the iron cage." ”
Xie Bingzhou said strangely: "What, do we still have to go up again?" ”
Zhou Xiaocao smiled mysteriously and said, "No, you'll know when you go in." You, lend me a waist knife. ”
The thin bodyguard untied the saber at his waist and handed it to Zhou Xiaocao. Xie Bingzhou suspiciously followed Zhou Xiaocao into the iron cage again. Zhou Xiaocao "Yu" pulled out the knife, and the bright reflection reflected Zhou Xiaocao's mysterious smile, which made Xie Bingzhou's heart suddenly burst out.
After the two of them stood still, Zhou Xiaocao said, "My lord, please help me!" ”
The knife in his hand is the same as the knife in his hand, and he fell down rapidly.
Xie Bingzhou shouted in fright: "What do you want to do?" It's "
Before he finished a sentence, he heard a "poof", and the iron cage had already fallen to the bottom.
Zhou Xiaocao took out the key, opened the stone door, stretched out his hand and said, "My lord, please come in." ”
Xie Bingzhou was full of suspicion, and pushed open the stone door hard, but he was stunned all of a sudden.
Silver, boxes and boxes of silver, all stacked there! Opening the box, the flash of silver shone out and reflected on Xie Bingzhou's face that was flushed with excitement. Xie Bingzhou suddenly grabbed Zhou Xiaocao's arm tightly, and said while shaking: "You tell me quickly, what is going on?" ”
