Chapter 174: Suspicion
In order to show the strong national strength of the beam, Shengpingfang has set up a few zhang high archway today, and the lanterns are colorful, which is very spectacular.
No one could have imagined that the woman who handed Cui Xiang scissors to cut red silk would suddenly go crazy, and took the scissors and stabbed Cui Xiang straight into the chest, fortunately she was a woman with little strength, and Cui Xiang's reaction was not slow, so she avoided her knife, and then the soldiers rushed up and subdued the woman.
However, at that time, Cui Xiang lost his balance, fell to the ground all of a sudden, twisted his feet and didn't say anything, and ripped off all the red silk of the archway, looking very embarrassed.
Da Liang's face can be regarded as lost in front of these outsiders this time.
As soon as this incident came out, Cui Xiang endured the pain in his leg and immediately entered the palace to plead guilty, followed by a group of officials related to today's incident.
Now the situation in the capital, several of them know very well, these cases are all aimed at the official yamen, that is, to give the court no face, causing panic in the capital, but they are helpless, that is, Emperor Longqing suppressed his anger and did not get angry, and they were so ashamed that they wanted to find a hole to get into.
Emperor Longqing was fledgling, and Cui Xiang had always been respectful, not only did he not blame him, but also gave him a lot of things to suppress him, and several other people were not so lucky, although Emperor Longqing reprimanded them lightly and asked them to solve the case as soon as possible, but they knew very well that the real pressure did not come from Emperor Longqing, but from Cui Xiang, who was in power and opposition.
Today made this minister lose face in front of the world, and tomorrow he will wait to wear the little shoes he tailored for them.
Han Dao's invitation to the guilty side of the chamber has not been finished, and there is an accident in the Dali Temple over there, he almost climbed on the horse with a rolling belt, and galloped all the way back, and when he appeared in the dungeon, his clothes were disheveled, and even his hat was a little crooked.
"Lord Han," Wen Shaoan bowed to Han Dao.
Han Dao, who had always been very good-tempered and polite, just hurriedly arched his hand at him, and scolded Ye Ping with a slap in his face, "How do you do things?" Can't you see what's so unusual about this miscellaneous servant? If these jailers are stabbed, will they just stand stupidly? How exactly do you manage it? You can start a fire in your backyard! The emperor and Cui Xiang are held accountable, and neither of you nor I can escape! I was really killed by you this time! ”
Ye Ping lowered her head and obediently scolded and accepted punishment, this time there was such a big basket, I am afraid that it can be solved by being scolded a few words, this black gauze hat is going to be explained here, Han Dao is afraid that it will be worse than her, no wonder he wants to be angry.
Wen Shaoan said, "Lord Han, now is not the time to say these words, the top priority is to find out why this miscellaneous servant suddenly burst out to kill people, whether there is someone behind him who instigates him, and who wants to target Dali Temple like this." ”
Han Dao scolded here for three days and three nights, but it was just a breath, it didn't help at all, they still had to bear the responsibility, Han Dao wouldn't understand this truth, but if he didn't take this breath at Ye Ping, he would only be left with despair.
Han Dao smiled miserably, and arched his hand at Wen Shao'an, "What Lord Wen said is very true, have the family members of this miscellaneous servant been detained?" Give me a good trial! ”
"Lord Han, Zhou Asan's mother is very old, and when she heard that Zhou Asan killed someone and committed suicide, she was so shocked that she fainted unconscious on the spot.
"Well deserved!" Han Dao's eyes were gloomy, "What about his wife and children?" ”
"The case has been filed, and the magistrate is on trial."
Cheng Jinxin couldn't bear it, she knew the methods of Dali Temple, the three children of Ah San that week, the eldest was only seven years old, not to mention the punishment of such a young child, just scaring them made people feel cruel, but at this moment, the people of Dali Temple were already carried away by anger, and it was useless to say anything to them.
She secretly tugged at Wen Shao'an's sleeve, he didn't look back, just spoke slowly, "Zhou Asan's wife and children will be watched first, and after I look at his body, I will interrogate him personally." ”
Zhou Asan killed himself, and he was very decisive, with a hint of ruthlessness, as if he was not killing himself, but pigs and sheep.
"My lord, I suspect that Zhou Asan was tricked by someone to do such an unusual thing." Ye Ping's expression was solemn.
"Zhong Gu?" Han Dao touched his chin and said, "It's really a little possible, but where can I find someone who is proficient in the Southern Barbarian Witch Gu to verify?" It's a big matter, but it's not like you and I can just find a reason to fool the top. ”
Witch Gu is the secret art of the Southern Barbarians, and it is easy not to spread it, and even ordinary people in the Southern Barbarians do not understand the art of witchcraft, not to mention that it is in the capital thousands of miles away, and there are not many people who have seen it, let alone proficient in it.
Although Ye Ping's suspicion is reasonable to a certain extent, it is also very unbelievable, not to mention that it is about Nanban, and it is easy to commit the taboo of Emperor Longqing and Cui Xiang.
"This little servant was sent by my master from Hongshan Academy, and my master heard that there was a rebellion in the capital recently, so he sent a little servant around him to help, don't look at his young age, but he can do his best in medicine." Ye Ping pushed Cheng Jin out without hesitation.
Han Dao immediately arched his hand towards Cheng Jin, although she was a subordinate, she was a servant beside the master, and she also had the true inheritance of the master's medical path, I am afraid that it is not much different from the master's apprentice, and the people of Daliang have a heartfelt respect for Hongshan Academy, even at this time, Han Dao did not forget to greet the master, "Master, his old man is in good health?" ”
"Thank you for your concern, Master, his old man is in good health." Cheng Jin also saluted Han Dao with a straight look, that serious and a little arrogant appearance, like the little servant next to Master Ji, even Ye Ping secretly called it like, not to mention Han Dao.
"Back then, Empress Zhuang Jing's medical skills were able to overcome the Nanban, and now that the master and son are personally helping, this case will not be solved." Han Dao finally had a smile on his face, turned his head and said to Ye Ping, "This matter will be handed over to you, and a result must be found within five days, otherwise we will all go to the emperor and Cui Xiang together to receive the punishment...... Heh, it's better to get as soon as possible, I'm afraid that in five days, our black yarn hat will have to land......"
Although Wen Shao'an was ordered by the emperor to assist in the investigation at this time, Han Dao's words did not dare to say to him, he was Emperor Longqing's confidant, although his official position was low, his status was transcendent, not to mention that he was a descendant of Wenxiang, although he was young, his reputation in Shilin was extremely high, and even if his authority was as great as Cui Xiang, he did not dare to attack him, so no matter how treacherous the court was, he could not move his foundation.
He and Ye Ping are different, this time I am afraid that I will be the first to attack the two of them......
