Chapter 16: The Kitchen Turmoil
Wing Guo Mansion, in the study.
Qin Huaidao pondered after putting down the "Zhenguan Law", and his face was solemn.
The Tang Dynasty originally followed the "Wude Law", Li Yuan based on the Sui Dynasty's "Kaihuang Law" to formulate a code, a total of 12 articles and 500 articles, since the 11th year of Zhenguan, that is, last year began to promulgate the "Zhenguan Law", by Fang Xuanling, Pei Hongxian and others according to the "Wude Law" compiled by the code.
"Zhenguan Law" did not have no dam-related crimes, and the Wang family did not admit to blocking the water, after all, the reputation was not good, and the Wang family still had to face on the surface, and the judgment document said that "the Wang family suffered intentional homicide when they were dredging and damming and repairing water conservancy", and committed one of the six killings in "Zhenguan Law", that is, the crime of homicide, and was sentenced to beheading.
After the review of the criminal department, it was handed over to Shangshu Province for approval, and there were still some days in the middle, and it was necessary to find a way to save people, Qin Huaidao looked out the window with an unusually firm gaze, his fists clenched, and he gurgled.
"Brother Qin!" Suddenly, a loud voice came.
Immediately afterwards, the door of the study was pushed open, and Cheng Chumo entered the door in a hurry, followed by Luo Zhang, who was still blue and blue, and shouted outside the door: "Uncle, this guy is rude, he doesn't listen to the obstruction, and he can't move ......roughly."
Cheng Chumo said angrily: "What about being rough, can you still beat Lao Tzu?" ”
"Come, hit you for up to ten rounds." Luo Zhang said proudly.
"Yo he, I'm not very old, my tone is quite big, get out of the way, Lao Tzu has an urgent matter to find your uncle, and I don't have time to take care of you." Cheng Chumo scolded with a dark face.
Luo Zhang's temper also came up, and he was about to make a move, but when he saw Qin Huaidao's eyes, he left depressedly.
"Brother Cheng, the sky is falling?"
"Pretty much." Cheng Chumo replied casually, found a place to sit down, and continued: "The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Wang Gui just went to sue the royal court, saying that your fiefdom was deliberately murdered, and the Criminal Department also sent the judgment document to Shangshu Province, and the courtiers involved with the Wang family talked about the law. ”
"What a royal family, they can't wait to be convicted." Qin Huaidao said coldly.
"Don't worry, afterwards, the saint was summoned separately in the Liangyi Hall, and when I went in, I saw that the case was kicked over, and the music fell all over the ground, and the saint's face was ugly, let me bring you a sentence - the overall situation is important, wait for the opportunity."
"Focus on the overall situation and wait for the opportunity." Qin Huaidao sneered, he was very disdainful in his heart, Li Er had to forbear and compromise with the five surnames and seven hopes in order to stabilize the court situation, the starting point was good, but the result was unsatisfactory, and it was not suppressed until the Wu Zhou period, and after the Huangchao rebellion at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the five surnames and seven wangs were completely solved.
Cheng Chu silently saw that Qin Huaidao was calm and a little frightened, and persuaded worriedly: "Brother, are you okay?" The saint has his own hardships, and he should be considerate of being a courtier, and his father also mentioned that the five surnames and seven hopes mislead the country and harm the people, and the crime is extremely evil, but the tree has deep roots, and the whole body can not be moved, but can only be slowly plotted, otherwise, the Tang Dynasty will make a comeback, and the good situation will be ruined. ”
Qin Huaidao sneered, but he was very disappreciative in his heart, the so-called overall situation is the overall situation of the Li family, what does it have to do with him? How can one be indifferent to the insult of one's own people? The so-called timing, when the family controls the government, economy, and public opinion, it tolerates and retreats everywhere, where is the opportunity?
"Are you alright?" Cheng Chumo asked worriedly.
"What can it be? The saint can endure it, but what can't be endured by being a courtier? Qin Huaidao pretended to be relaxed and said, he didn't want to reveal his heart, it had nothing to do with trust, but it was a big matter, and he didn't want the Cheng family to be implicated.
Cheng Chumo was short-tempered, but he was not stupid, he could see that Qin Huaidao had something on his mind, but he didn't want to ask much, and reminded: "When I came, my father explained, saying that Uncle Qin was gone, and there were still their old guys, and the honors and nobles were one, and they would never let you suffer." ”
"Thank you, Uncle Cheng, for me."
"Don't talk to a family, then ...... Where is the saint? ”
Qin Huaidao pondered for a moment and then said: "Tell the Holy Lord for me, just say that Weichen will obey the holy decree, but the embankment of thousands of miles is destroyed in the anthill, and you must not ignore it." ”
In any case, Li Er is also considered an eloquent and strategic, an emperor of the ages for the country and the people, a benevolent monarch, worthy of respect, and a reminder is also considered benevolent and righteous, as for whether these words are arrogant, offensive, listen to it or not, it doesn't matter, after sending Cheng Chumo away, Qin Huaidao closed his door and pondered, waiting for news.
Until it was dark, Uncle Liu and the others who were sent out to inquire about the information had not returned, but Jia Youcai came back in a hurry, his face was gloomy and terrible, Qin Huaidao chuckled in his heart and shouted: "Uncle Jia? ”
"Add the young master."
Jia Youcai bowed and continued: "Young master, three more died when the old man arrived with the doctor, and five doctors said that they might not survive tonight, and several others were also disabled, the murderer came prepared, with a murder weapon, and he was ruthless, the victim's family was temporarily appeased, let me bring a word - thank you for the young master's love!" ”
"Do you know who the killer is?" Qin Huaidao's eyes were cold and terrifying.
"According to the Zhuang household, the murderer is called Wang Hu, born in the side branch of the Taiyuan Wang family, because of his fierce nature, he is brave and ruthless, and he gathered a large group of ruffians to form the Tiger Gang, helping thousands of people, secretly supported by the Wang family, infamous and notorious in Chang'an, but no one can help it, it is a knife in the secret of the Wang family."
"Tell me about the situation."
"Wang's side branch of the clan Tian in the upper reaches of the young master's fiefdom, next to each other, Wang Hu led people to build a dam upstream to block the water, Zhuang Hu went to theorize, Wang Hu and others suddenly showed their knives, obviously prepared, Zhuang Hu was bare-handed, was caught off guard, so far there are eighteen people dead, eleven people are disabled, six people are injured, the young master, the old brothers on the village did not die on the battlefield, but died at the hands of villains, this revenge can not be avenged." Jia Youcai was emotionally difficult to himself.
"Do you know where Wang Hu is?" Qin Huaidao asked, the killing intent in his heart was rolling, the veteran who had shed blood for the Tang Dynasty did not die on the battlefield, but was mutilated by the villain, even Li Er abandoned these veterans for the so-called overall situation, as a soldier, how could Qin Huaidao endure it? What's more, it's still his own fiefdom and food.
Jia Youcai shook his head and said with a resentful expression: "When I just returned to the gate of the mansion, a green skin stepped forward to talk, saying that he had received two pieces of silver from the people, and he would help one side of the Gu people to bring the words, as long as the divine soldiers were handed over, it would be fine if they were caught, it must have been done by the Wang family, young master, they did all this to the divine soldiers, what should we do?" ”
Qin Huaidao was furious: "Sure enough, to find out the whereabouts of Wang Hu, the blood debt must be paid in blood!" ”
"Whoa!"
Jia Youcai replied solemnly, his eyes flashing, as if he had returned to the battlefield and left in a hurry.
Late at night, everything is silent.
There was an aura of grief and indignation in the vast Wing Kingdom Mansion, like a powder keg that could erupt at any moment.
The maid He'er came to the study for the fifth time to ask if she wanted to eat, and when she saw Qin Huaidao's gloomy and terrible face, she didn't dare to speak, and waited silently at the door, her heart was beating suddenly, and she was very scared.
After another hour, the head of the nursing home hurriedly came, bowed and said, "Young master, I found it." ”
"Good! He'er, pass on the meal. ”
Qin Huaidao's eyes burst with light, and he got up and shouted, when you are full, you can kill!
"Whoa!" He'er didn't think much about it, and hurried away with a sigh of relief.
Waiting for He'er to go farther, Qin Huaidao stared at Uncle Liu and asked, "Where is it?" ”
"The murderer Wang Hu, now Pingkangfang Wanhualou, the headquarters of the Tiger Gang is in Qunxianfang, Sanjin Compound, hanging the plaque of Juyi Villa, and Xishi is separated by all the way."
"Let's go down and rest, I'm afraid there will be restlessness in the house tonight, so let's cheer up." Qin Huaidao waved his hand, his eyes narrowed into a dangerous needle mangzhuang, covering up the endless killing intent, the next action was huge, and no one else could participate, not even the loyal and reliable Uncle Liu and Luo Zhang.
Soldiers take revenge, seize the day, and go to the overall situation of the fuck!
