When Wanying rushed to the capital, it was already midnight, and the north gate of the city was open and not guarded by the imperial court guards.

At night, the clouds covered the moon, and the streets were as dark as hell on earth.

The dark night covered the crimes of the evil ghosts in the world, and the gate of Ziwei Shrine, Ziwei Gate, was burned by the Jingnan camp that forcibly attacked the city, and the fire burned for three days and three nights, until when Wanying entered Beijing, the sparks in the ashes were still blown out of red flesh by the summer wind.

After Master Shi was imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department on the afternoon of 13 June, the Military Department received a copy of the family from the Criminal Department and surrounded the family with lightning speed on the evening of 13 June.

A catastrophe lasted until dawn.

The eldest young master Shao Song stood in front of the soldiers who raided the house, questioned the reason and legitimacy of the raid, and was injured by a director of the military department, Shao Song was angry and stabbed him to death with a knife, and was escorted to the prison of the criminal department by dozens of soldiers while raiding the house.

The general's mansion with five entrances and five exits of the division's family, from the Zhengyan Hall to the Zhengxing Hall, to the Zhengshen Hall, and finally to the Zhengxiao Hall of the Buddha Hall; All the way the door is wide open. Hundreds of soldiers bravely held torches from the gate to the Buddha Hall, illuminating the Shifu from the beginning to the end from front to back, and from the sky, it was like a bright and sparkling long sword, piercing straight into the internal organs of the Shifu.

The first thing to bear the brunt of that day was the Zhengshentang where his wife Chen Yanning lived. When she went to bed late, Aunt Lin couldn't wait for the teacher to come home, so she came to the main hall in a panic to ask her wife to find a way.

The wife had already rested, and only the eldest young master was sitting in the middle of the courtyard in a daze. Aunt Lin quietly told the eldest young master the reason why the master went out, and also directly expressed her worries.

Before the two finished speaking, the butler hurriedly came in and said breathlessly: "A director of the military department brought hundreds of soldiers to the house, saying that he wanted to visit the master. ”

Shao Song wondered in his heart: He was in the military department, and the chief came late at night, he should be looking for himself, how could he find his father, and the father he thought of had not returned for a day. Then he said to the housekeeper, "It's getting dark, go and tell the master, I'll go to the yamen tomorrow to find him." ”

The housekeeper said in a hurry: "Young master, they can't wait, it is estimated that they have already come in at this time." ”

As he was talking, a little guy crawled into the main hall and said, "Young master, butler, those people can't stop it, so they pulled out their knives and came in." ”

Hearing the knife drawn, Shao Song didn't say a word, raised his leg and was about to leave, but Aunt Lin stopped him and said, "Young Master, you can't go, these people are probably here to find trouble." ”

The wife had already been woken up, and hurriedly ran over to stop the eldest young master, and she didn't care about the coat on her shoulders when it fell to the ground.

"Mother, aunt, and father are not at home, and I am the eldest son and can't leave it alone. I know several of the directors of the military department, so don't panic if I talk about it and talk about peace. ”

Shao Song didn't bother to talk to the two mothers, and ran out in a panic with the housekeeper.

Aunt Lin picked up the clothes that Mrs. had fallen on the ground, patted the dust on them, and draped them on her wife.

Shao Song rushed out and collided with the head of the military department in Zhengyan Hall. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar face, the tension in Shao Song's heart instantly increased. If he is the head of the military department, he still has some favors to say peace. But this man has no idea what he is about, let alone the word 'say and'.

"Below is Shao Song, the Lang Zhongshi of the Ministry of War, dare to ask the chief with his surname?"

The military department is the fifth grade, and the head of the military department is from the fifth grade or the sixth grade, Shao Song uses such a tone, to put it bluntly, it is to promote the principal.

Unexpectedly, the principal didn't accept this, and said angrily: "The little master has been promoted to a humble position." ”

"Chief, we are in the same military department, what is the name of the director?"

"The lowly position is an official of the Criminal Department, because of the adhesion in the personnel of the Ministry of War, so he was temporarily transferred to the Ministry of War as an errand, and he had to return to the Criminal Department to resume his life after completing the errand."

Shao Song's heart was suddenly cold, temporarily transferred, and after completing the reinstatement, isn't this just a special one to target the teacher's family? What's more, the Criminal Department already has military service, so why pretend to be the name of the Military Department? Shao Song couldn't figure out the twists and turns for a while.

"Late tonight, the director of labor came over, prepared a little tea, and invited the director to have a drink."

"No need, I was ordered to come to check the property of the teacher, and by the way, I searched for evidence of fornication in Fujian."

Shao Song was not lightly chopped by these words, and asked in a stagger: "My father was originally an official of the imperial court, and now although he is idle at home, he can't easily let people check the family property, right?" What's more, the principal said that we had fornicated with Fujian, which is not a joke? ”

The main thing was that Shao Song was very stubborn and tough, and he had already prepared a draft in his heart to deal with Shao Song.

"Master Xiaoshi, you are right, Master Shi was originally an official of the imperial court, even if he is idle at home now, he is also Prince Rong's father-in-law, unless the minions eat the wolf's heart and leopard gall, otherwise there is no Danshu iron coupon, and we don't dare to build Tanfu without a few heads, right?"

Shao Song was dumbfounded by the director's cross-examination, but since he was on order, whose order was it?

"Since it's a business trip, I don't dare to interfere, but I just want to ask for the emperor's decree to check the homes of the imperial officials, may I ask the principal, can I take a look at the edict?"

"Shi Zhongyuan is a white ding, what kind of edict do you want? Do you want to copy the house, and still put it up? "The principal began to speak badly.

Shao Song was not frightened to grow up, and when he saw that the master began to play hooligan, he also became tough: "I am the military department of the imperial court, and the master's family is also my family, you come to my house, you must have a holy decree, right?" ”

The director obviously expected this scene a long time ago, and Master Shi is now locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department, and it is this Shi Shaosong who is difficult to deal with. Take out the false decree that has been prepared long ago.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Shi Zhong's distant ancestor Shangyuan was the last official in the south of the Yangtze River, and the first emperor took care of the residence as the minister of the guard, the master of high merit, and the king of the traffic domain. I remembered his hard work, could not bear the harsh punishment, relegated to Shuntian Mansion Yin still did not want to repent, the case of the robbery of military grain in Zhili, after investigation, it was really a collusion between inside and outside, so rebellious, plotting against the law, ordered to confiscate the property of Zhong Yuan, the former governor of Zhili, and searched for evidence of secret communication with the Fujian anti-thief Fang Songding. Chin this! ”

Shao Song took the decree and saw that it was not written by the emperor himself, but the stamped seal was the 'heirloom jade seal'.

After noon, Shao Song had already learned the news of the emperor's death from his close friend. The emperor has been unconscious for months, and this holy decree is fabricated.

Thinking of this, Shao Song took the holy decree in his arms, got up from the ground, and said to the principal: "What should you be guilty of falsely preaching the holy decree? ”

The chief has long heard that Shi Shaosong is not easy to mess with, and he is one of the leaders of the official palace in the capital, but the master of the Dong'an County Mansion has promised himself a high-ranking official who is a four-grade high-ranking official, and he has been seeking glory and wealth since ancient times.

originally wanted to draw a knife to scare Shi Shaosong, but he didn't expect to provoke Shi Shaosong, Shi Shaosong's arm was accidentally injured by the principal in the scuffle, Shi Shaosong saw that the comer was not good, and it was a real thing, and he directly stabbed the long knife into the chest of the principal.

The principal died in the courtyard of Zhengyan Hall, and Shi Shaosong was taken away.

The kung fu of a cup of tea, nails are nails, rivets are rivets. Raid the house and continue to raid the house.

When Aunt Lin heard about the raid, she remembered the jade antiques that Master Shi had put away before, which were all given to Master Shi before Fang Songding rebelled. If these things are found out, won't it be confirmed that the master is plotting against the enemy?

Thinking of this, he said goodbye to his wife and hurriedly went back to his yard. However, just a few steps out of the courtyard gate, he was held down by the soldiers who rushed over and froze in place.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the wife hurriedly ordered the maids under her command to report to the aunts and grandmothers of each house, but before the maids went out, they were blocked in the courtyard of the main hall by the soldiers.

The mighty raiding house, with the help of the moonlight and the dusk torches, made a grand appearance in the Shifu.

In a panic, the wife put on the shirt draped over her shoulders and said to the leaders of the house: "Official, the lord is not at home at this time, the inner courtyard is full of female dependents, and now everyone has been settled, it is better to give some time, let the female dependents dress neatly, and after avoiding it, it is not too late to do an inventory." ”

"No need to be verbose, save trouble!"

The leader of the raiding family turned to the soldiers behind him, and shouted: "This is the main house in the inner courtyard of the division's house, check it from here first!" ”

The soldiers behind the leader have long been overjoyed, and they have long heard that the master's family has a lot of money, and maybe he can make a small fortune by raiding the family.

Seeing that she was powerless, Mrs. stopped making a sound, and stood in the courtyard with Aunt Ruichun in her arms, watching a group of bandit-like soldiers bravely move all their decades of savings out of the main hall.

Not only that, but the wife's dowry was also carried out by Bingyong, and then the wife panicked, saying that it was an inspection, which was obviously a posture of copying the house.

"Official, this is a dowry brought by a woman from her mother's family, not the private property of the master's house."

A leader grinned and said: "I might as well tell you the truth, this is a raid on the house, since it is a raid on the house, what dowry or not will be confiscated!" ”

Mrs. panicked, she has only this way back and hope in her life, and now that she has been confiscated, what will she do for the rest of her life?

The wife could no longer watch as this group of devils robbed her of her hope! Like madness, he threw himself on a box and shouted: "This is my dowry, I am the daughter of the prince, you can go back to your mother's house to avoid it, you are not allowed to take my dowry!" ”

How can the soldiers who have already copied the red eyes stop here? How can you spit out the fat you eat in your stomach?

One of the leaders threw his wife aside and said fiercely, "Get out, get in the way of us being careful of your life!" We are ordered to raid the house, and those who dare to stop it will be killed! ”

Mrs. is already a half-old woman in her fifties, who knows the way of the world, but it is the road paved by money, and she has counted on her dowry for the rest of her life to live alone with this dowry, and without the dowry, even if she lives, it is better to die than to live.

Aunt Ruichun cried and helped his wife up, and persuaded bitterly: "Mrs., don't care, don't care!" ”

After getting up from the ground and struggling out of Ruichun's aunt, she continued to pounce on the box with her weak body, desperately protecting the dowry inside.

"You can't take my things, I brought them from my mother's house, and they are my own. The court can't copy the wife, I am still the lady of the three products of the court, the court has relieved me of the official position of the master, but I am still the lady's order, and the reward given to me by the court on the Duanyang Festival is still a lady's share. You can't confiscate my things, I'm the court's edict. ”

The soldiers already knew that Master Shi was in a catastrophe this time, and the death penalty was a matter of time. The walls and houses collapsed, and the catastrophe was destroyed, who would care if they were destined or not?

"Let me tell you the truth, the sky of your master's family has fallen, and the master has been put on death row, and the people in this courtyard will die sooner or later."

The wife sacrificed her life and money, even if she had to die sooner or later, she couldn't let the dowry be snatched away. He said to Bingyong: "I am an order, you can't touch my dowry." ”

Bing Yong had already lost his patience, and stretched out his hand at his wife is a crisp slap, and his wife stumbled and knocked directly on the stone beast in front of the yard, and the back of his head suddenly gushed with blood, and Aunt Ruichun pounced over, picked up his wife and said, "Mrs., I can't take care of anything outside my body, I can't take care of it." ”

The wife touched the back of her head, and when she saw that it was blood, she rose directly from the ground, and continued to pounce on the box and press the dowry in Bingyong's hand.

The soldiers had reached the limit, and they couldn't get rid of the old woman three or four times, and one of the soldiers pulled out a knife and frightened: "If you don't leave, I will cut you!" ”

The wife would rather die than let go, and lay on the box and shouted, "I am a decree, and you cannot touch my dowry." ”

A few soldiers had no choice but to put down the box, and a few people picked up the wife and threw it aside, and then continued to lift the dowry.

The wife had already gone mad, and the blood on her head flowed into her neck, suffocating her like a red rope. The dying wife, watching Bing Yong carry away the dowry, rushed forward as if she was dead, trying to get her dowry box back.

A soldier turned around and saw his wife rushing over, thinking that his wife was going to sneak attack them, and was about to draw a knife to scare them, but his wife pounced, but he didn't expect to suddenly pierce into the tip of the knife and pierce it directly.

Mrs. didn't expect that this group of people could really kill themselves! Bing Yong didn't expect that the dignified court would give up her life for the dowry.

Her hands were frozen in the air and she couldn't move, her eyes were still staring at her dowry box, and the sharp knife pierced her chest, and the severed blood gushed out from the knife. The severed meridians and blood in the body flowed out of the mouth, and the words that were stuck in the throat were also brought out.

"Return my dowry......" This is the last sentence of Mrs. Shi Zhongyuan's life.

After finishing speaking, he looked up directly to the end and whimpered with his life.

The impact of the landing pushed the long knife on his wife's body out of his body, and Bing Yong directly pulled out the knife, wiped the blood on his wife's body, and left the courtyard of the main body without looking back.

"Ma'am! Wife! "Aunt Ruichun didn't expect that the wife, who was fine at night, would suddenly lose her breath. Shaking and shouting desperately.

However, the wife could no longer answer Aunt Ruichun, and the excessive shaking squeezed out all the blood in the house. Until his wife's body was cold, Aunt Ruichun also passed out in a pool of blood.

Aunt Lin outside the courtyard heard the situation in the courtyard clearly through the wall, knowing that these people were all outlaws who made a fortune, and took advantage of his wife's dowry to carry them out. When everyone was looting, they fled in the wilderness.

A few of those jade and antiques are buried in the backyard of the Treasure Pavilion, and a few of Wanying's gadgets are still in the attic. Without these things, maybe Master Shi would not have been convicted!

Thinking of this, Aunt Lin ran desperately to the Cherishing Pavilion. After a few soldiers hid a few pearls, they suddenly found that the woman had disappeared just now, and said to the soldiers: "Just now Lao Tzu detained a Peugeot girl, it is estimated that it is the famous third aunt of the Shi family, what a stunner made of water, whoever catches it belongs to whom!" By robbing money, we also rob a person, and God doesn't know it, what do you think, brothers? ”
