Chapter 52: Judging the Fox (Seeking Collection)

The unlucky ones are usually caught in the right place. With the first one, naturally there is a second, a third. More unfortunate things awaited him - the dying concubine, who took the medicine that night, stopped throwing up the next day, and did not pass the official room much, and in the afternoon, she shouted that she was hungry.

The concubine who drank the porridge mourned, holding the emperor's hand and crying. I cried that I was almost drunk by the dry branch soup. The emperor comforted him and gave him a lot of jewels. The concubine is so embarrassed that she doesn't make trouble. She relied on the child in her belly and relied on hope to survive the catastrophe, but whether she damaged the fetus or not, she had to give birth and see, and she was still worried at the moment, since the emperor promised to severely punish her people, what she has to worry about now is the child.

In the Qianqing Palace, the emperor was pacing with his hands behind his back. Investigating the counterfeit drug case needs a leader, and he doesn't want the three law divisions to interfere in this matter, after all, Ouchi has many things related to the privacy of the royal family. The emperor is short guarding, and he is afraid of provoking outside discussions.

Another reason is that he understands in his heart that the Criminal Department does not want to intervene in the affairs of the palace, and if he presses it hard, he may not be able to achieve any results, but he is afraid that it will pass by smearing mud inside and out. No matter how you say it, it's the emperor's minions who make mistakes, and outsiders can't figure out which sentences to ask and which ones not to ask. Besides, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, and if he asks too much, Fu Lun can only use the emperor to prevaricate and reply, and in the end he can only end it casually, and he will be fishy in vain.

The most important thing is that Fu Lun is a second-grade master, and the six Shangshu are only from the first grade, and they can't be suppressed in terms of grade.

But I can't help but check it out.

In fact, the emperor understood that the most suitable person was Prince Yi Guanglu. But this name is going around on my lips, and I just can't make up my mind. He didn't want the outside world to know about the affairs in the palace, and Guanglu didn't want him to know about it. It would not be good for him to know anything more about this.

Tong Liu's hands stood by the door, the clay sculpture and wood carving were general, and he could only come back to life when the emperor called him.

He knew in his heart why the emperor was irritable, but as a slave, he must not let the master feel that he was seen through by the slave, and there are some things, even if he is clear in his heart, he has to pretend that he is not clear. Stay by the master's side, and live a long time to enjoy wealth.

Sure enough, the emperor called him after a while, talked about gossip for a while, and then changed the conversation, "The palace asked about the case, who pressed the formation before?" ”

Tong Liu thought about it, and reported the names of several princes who worked in the previous dynasty one by one.

"Alas, it's either that the old ones are useless, or that the people are not in the capital." The emperor was even more irritated when he heard this.

Tong Liu also has a headache, your older generation is sparsely populated, who can blame you?! Today's Zixi is even more difficult, there is only one brother left, and he has to be guarded against thieves, isn't it useless? The master of Zhongxing in the previous dynasty, the Forbidden City, which has more than three palaces and six courtyards, is almost impossible to live in, and there are more than 20 sons and brothers, except for the short-lived and unusable, Prince Heshuo and the prince have sealed more than a dozen. Thinking about it, I really feel sorry for my master.

The emperor is like this, he usually doesn't know how many people are around in front of him, but when he uses it, he finds that there is no one who can use it. The teacher is right, you should open Enke as soon as possible, so that you will not be overwhelmed now.

Eunuchs can't interfere in politics, the emperor asked, he can answer, the emperor didn't open Chrysostom, no matter how good the idea is, he can't hand it out.

"Except for Guanglu, there is no one who is of the best use?" The emperor pressed his forehead, and the headache intensified.

Seeing Tong Liu standing there stupidly, he was angry for a while, and angrily smashed the royal pen on the case. The imperial pen dipped in cinnabar spun around in the air a few times, and the red ink dots thrown out wiped Tong Liu's face, and after drawing a long red mark, it rolled into his arms.

Tong Liu carefully held the pen and put it back in place respectfully, but he took three steps back, pretending to be stupid and said, "The emperor said that it is the best use?" The minions look at the fact that our Great Xia Kingdom is full of talents, why is it useless? Not to mention, in the New Year, the Seventh Master found this for you is excellent, this is from the slave's hometown. When I was a child, I heard that someone went into the mountains to catch a kind of hare, but if one or two could be caught, the whole family would have a grain to chew next year.

The Zihao tribute of the seventh master is not simple, I heard that the wild rabbit hid in the deep mountains and old forests to eat bamboo and drink the spring for a lifetime, and when it is old, the hair on the body can be used to make a pen. It has to be the hairs that grow where they crawl around. The slave has seen the craftsmen take the hair, how many hairs the rabbit has on its body, and you can only choose one in ten thousand millimeters. Only one can be used!

Catching a room full of rabbits, making up less than a pen's hair, is precious. Master, it's not easy to look at this effective bamboo! This is called the deer spotted bamboo, pick the damp place to grow, not all of them can produce this deer skin spot, and the python skin spot, the crater... ”

He chattered a lot, and for the first time the emperor had heard that a rabbit made a pen was worth a year's ration for a poor family. A few years ago, Guangcheng sent a few boxes of pens, and it was really easy for him to use it to approve the folds, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive.

He was pondering, so he heard Tong Liu's nagging, "If you want to talk about capable people, the seventh master must be counted as one!" The slave's hometown is poor and remote, inaccessible on weekdays, and this thing produces little every year, he can still find it for you, can't this be done? ”

The emperor pondered at this time.

Like Tong Liu said, isn't this old seven just a rabbit that has become a sperm? I don't have a plan to do things, but I have a good heart. Let him take the lead in the trial of Fu Lun, don't look at Fu Lun as an old fox, but he is a rabbit spirit. It takes a goblin to be able to suppress a thousand-year-old fox.

Even better, he didn't need to use Guanglu anymore.

I looked up happily and saw Tong Liu with a face of Zhu Mo, I couldn't help but be happy, I didn't need to paint my face, I was alive and well!

As for the seventh master, he left in a daze and immediately became the minister of the Qincha. He shirked several times in a row, and the emperor patted him on the shoulder kindly, promising that the errand would be done and he would be crowned king.

Grab your own stolen goods? I haven't heard of it since ancient times, but the seventh master is so horizontal now! Guangcheng, who was happy to bloom, went out of the Qianqing Palace to find the nine.

And so it was done. The seventh master also wondered, he felt a pity when he looked back, he should have asked the second brother for a few more birds!

With the people of the three law divisions, for the sake of prudence, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department personally went out, and the Zuodu Yushi from the Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate came to handle the case with the seventh master's snort seriously.

The facts of the case soon became clear, when purchasing Jingming's purchase, he was greedy for small profits, did not take the goods from the previous imperial merchants, and met a medicinal herb merchant from the northeast, because the old mother at home suddenly fell ill and rushed back before the year, so he sold the inventory in his hand cheaply, and most of the inventory happened to be precious medicinal materials. Although Jing Ming was greedy, he was also cautious, and he looked carefully at the people in the imperial infirmary, and the condition was good. Jing Ming calculated and reported it at the current price, and he could drop a few thousand taels of this deal, plus the medicinal herb merchant was in a hurry to ship, so he pressed the price hard, and bought all of them at a price of sixty percent. Inside and out, you can drop 10,000 taels.

Even coaxed and frightened, the medicinal herb merchant had no choice but to agree, he was in a hurry to go home, the loss was certain, he also admitted it, but asked Jingming to take away the remaining ordinary medicinal materials. In this, there is the smell of Huoxiang stalks.
