Chapter 656: Invitation

Zhu Xi carried a small red lacquer box in one hand and a jar of wine in the other, and entered the rather quiet prison that extended out from the back of Dali Temple.

Chen Jiang was taken down from the court, first sent to the prison of the Criminal Department, and then turned around and turned to the prison of Dali Temple halfway to the court, and handed over the words from above, taking good care. The meaning of these two words is all between the eyebrows and eyes of the speaker.

Chen Jiang was taken from the prison of the Criminal Department, turned around and sent to this quiet courtyard behind Dali Temple, and lived next door to Mr. Hu, the counselor of the Xuyi Army in the Potai Mountain case.

When Zhu Xi arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Chen Jiang was playing blind chess with Mr. Hu next door across the courtyard wall.

The jailer trotted all the way over and opened the courtyard door, hunched down to let Zhu Xi in, did not lock the door, just covered it casually, and hurried back to his hut.

"You haven't been here in two days." Mr. Hu smiled first through the wall.

"Something's wrong." Zhu Xi replied through the wall, and put a few snacks in the food box on the small table under the corridor.

The bottom layer of the suitcase is a large box, Zhu Xi took it out, Chen Jiang had already taken two pots, poured two pots of wine out of the wine jar, Zhu Xi took a pot, stepped on a broken chair placed on the wall, and handed the box and wine jug over the wall.

Mr. Hu hurriedly stepped on the chair and raised his hand to take it, "Thanks to Chen Shilang's blessing." ”

"I told you a long time ago, I haven't been a squire for a long time." Chen Jiang, who was pouring wine into the cup, shook his head while laughing.

"I told you a long time ago, it depends on Lao Zhu Neng's ability to come over to see you every now and then, you, the waiter, will still be the waiter sooner or later, maybe not only the waiter." Mr. Hu laughed across the wall.

"Mr. Tohu's good words." Zhu Xi leaned on the wall and got off the chair, and arched his hand towards the wall with a smile.

"He's got a fart saying. This wine is good. It's really good, this wine is rare, not to mention thirty years, right? ”

Chen Jiang took a sip of wine, tasted it slowly, quickly took another sip, tasted it again, raised his two eyebrows together, exhaled lightly and dropped his eyebrows, and praised him repeatedly.

"It's really good wine, what's the good news?"

"What's the joy?"

What is the happy thing, Mr. Hu and Chen Jiang asked at the same time across the wall.

"Let's not mention a happy word, at least it's a big deal." Zhu Xi sat down opposite Chen Jiang, picked up the wine, took a sip, for a moment, exhaled softly, put down the cup and said with a smile: "This is the year I got married, and the capital bought ten jars of excellent wine, buried in the back garden, is planning to raise a jar on the day of the sixty-fifth year, and then raise a jar, if I can drink these ten jars of wine, my life will be complete." ”

Chen Jiang laughed when he heard this, and Mr. Hu on the other wall laughed and asked, "Dare you turn sixty today?" I really can't see it, you look very young, congratulations. ”

"What's the matter, it's not a lot worse than sixty." Zhu Xi smiled and drank a few sips of wine, "It's just that my life, living up to now, has been completed, and when I came to see Lao Chen today, I got up a jar and came out." ”

"What's wrong?" Chen Jiang put down the cup and looked at Zhu Xi carefully.

Mr. Hu, who was on the wall, also listened carefully.

"The day before yesterday, when Jin Mingchi was performing martial arts, the emperor was assassinated."

Chen Jiang and Mr. Hu next door didn't speak, and the surroundings were quiet, but when Zhu Xi said this, the surroundings seemed to be quiet from the hustle and bustle, and the silence was scary.

"Yesterday, a long list of wills came out in the palace, and the emperor was seriously injured. Early this morning, a few more wills were issued, the emperor has died, the prince is rebellious, the fourth master cut himself in front of the emperor last night, and now it is the temporary regent of the prince of Qin. ”

Zhu Xi's words were word by word, slow and very indifferent.

Chen Jiang sat straight for a while, and then gasped violently, "Is it really the prince?" ”

"Look at what you asked." Zhu Xi glanced at Chen Jiang obliquely, "This kind of thing, can I know?" It's really fake! ”

Chen Jiang gasped again, and before he could speak, Mr. Hu next door had a leisurely voice, "About the day after tomorrow, Prince Qin will ascend the throne." Alas, I never thought of this, never thought of it. ”

Chen Jiang slowly leaned back on the back of the bamboo chair, and the bamboo chair rattled for a while.

Zhu Xi held the wine and looked at him with a slight heart.

"No wonder you didn't come in the past two days, in the past two days, the capital must have been bloody and bloody, and my small courtyard is actually a paradise." For a long time, Chen Jiang said in a low voice.

"No, everything is as usual in the capital, that is, the tabloids sell very well, and all the tabloids in the capital are sleepless, and the tea houses are full." Zhu Xi spread his hands, "Yesterday afternoon, Jin Xiang, Wei Xiang, Yan Xiang, and all the Shangshu were in charge of each department, oh, by the way, Zheng Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites blocked the knife for the emperor, and yesterday evening, the coffin was transported back to Zheng's mansion." ”

"Wei Xiang?" Chen Jiang screamed in disbelief.

"Hmm." Zhu Xi had an indescribable pride on his face, "In the afternoon of the day before yesterday, the emperor's royal car, running all the way like flying, returned to the palace, and in half an hour, the imperial army surrounded the Jiang family, the Wei family, the Zheng family, and the Hou family, and yesterday morning, in addition to the Jiang family, the other families, I don't know when they withdrew, there are idlers with good spirits, saying that it was before and after yesterday's people, the imperial guards withdrew, to this day, everything is as usual, the Zheng family spirit hall has been set up, I heard that the old lady Min in the Changsha palace, It has already been sacrificed in the house. ”

Chen Jiang looked a little stunned.

Mr. Hu next door sighed, "It's really a good means, such a thing can be done naturally, that Qin Wangye, silently, I didn't expect there to be such a means." ”

"It is said that Princess Qin is not simple." Zhu Xi answered through the wall.

"What about the Bai family?" Chen Jiang asked suddenly.

"Bai Shumi is still in the camp in Gyeonggi, in case there is a change, General Bai, I happened to see him this morning, his eyes were picked, he didn't sleep for about a few nights, I heard that the imperial city is now under the command of General Lu, and the prince of Qin has never come out of the palace since he waited for the emperor, and there is no wind, no waves, no blood and no tears in the capital, and people who enter the city from other places, listening to gossip, think that they are listening to the words of the book that they don't know which dynasty."

"Ugh." In the middle of the night, Chen Jiang let out a long sigh and slowly shed two lines of tears.

"In the morning, you know the Mr. Guo beside the princess." Zhu Xi looked at the two lines of tears that slowly slid down Chen Jiang's face, Chen Jiang nodded, that Guo Sheng Guo Ye, he naturally knew.

"Come to me, let me come and see you, say that it is the princess's meaning, ask me to ask you, in the future, take a vacant position, full-time investigation of the case she confessed, ask you if you are willing, say yes, there is a difficulty, a request and a convenience, a difficulty is that any case that can alarm her must be extremely important and difficult, and nine times out of ten, it involves officials and wealthy families; The requirement is that you must be iron-faced and selfless; A convenient, now the famous Hu Da master on the canal, listen to your orders. ”

Zhu Xi paused, and then said: "There is another sentence, I don't know what Guo Ye meant, or what the princess meant, said that it made you think about it, this errand, no matter how well you do, it is also nameless and unprofitable." But. ”

Zhu Xi's tone changed, "Guo Ye said that it would be a pity if you didn't write down the cases you handled to warn future generations, he is willing to close these cases for you after a hundred years, and put them into print, and after a hundred years, you will definitely be recorded in the history books." ”

Next door, Mr. Hu laughed, laughing and sighing, mixed with the sound of slapping the table, "I understand, why this capital is calm, it is really a must to be saved, admire and admire!" ”

Zhu Xi ignored Mr. Hu next door, only looked at Chen Jiang, Chen Jiang looked directly at Zhu Xi who was looking at him, opened his mouth, failed to speak, opened again, sighed, and nodded, "Old Zhu, you know me, this is a dream." ”

"Mine too." Zhu Xi picked up Chen Jiang's cup, stuffed it into Chen Jiang's hand, and raised his glass and touched it heavily on Chen Jiang's cup, "I'll bring a few files in a while, Lao Chen, my wife has left, you know, the children are all older, all of them are good, and the grandchildren are all good, I don't have to care, I have divided the family, from today on, I will follow you, have a good look at the strange cases in this world, and have a good look at the hearts of the people in this world, and the darkness in this world." ”

"Okay, trample and kick all the darkness we've seen! Fuck it! Chen Jiang raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, and exhaled violently.

"The case of the Pu family, is it the same as before?" Mr. Hu next door, with a leisurely voice.

"Hmm." Zhu Xi glanced at Chen Jiang and answered: "This is what the princess meant, the Pu family is full of innocent blood, if it can still prolong its longevity, it will be intolerable." ”

Mr. Hu sneered, "What is the difference between the blood on the hands of the Pu family and the blood on her hands?" It's just that those who steal hooks are punished, and those who steal the country are just princes. ”

"The princess has all the people in her heart, and Mr. Pu has only herself in her heart, and this difference is enough." Zhu Xi picked up very quickly.

Next door, Mr. Hu snorted slowly and didn't speak again.
