Chapter 143 Reprimanded in front of the school

Chapter 143 is reprimanded in front of the school

(day more + pink 142, scratch insects)

I had a nightmare, I sweated profusely at night, and after I got up, I didn't eat a few bites early, and Mr. Zhao came to see him with two cages covered with cloths, and she went directly to the pharmacy with the cages, and didn't let a few girls follow her like yesterday.

Pingtong was worried about her body, and Pinghui rummaged in the eight treasures cabinet in the kitchen for a long time, finding a lot of rare things, and discussing with the cook what soup to stew to better replenish her body.

Thinking that a morning would pass in such a hurry, Yu Yu was also locked up in the pharmacy for a morning, and it was almost past the time for lunch, Pingtong Pinghui was worried about how to urge her to eat, and Yu Tong, who was sent by Yu Yu to keep an eye on the movement of the Literature Museum in the past two days, came over.

"Brother Yu, what's wrong with you?" Ping Tong saw him running into the courtyard sweating profusely and asked, they are all subordinates who have worked in Puzhenyuan, and they all know each other.

Yu Tong pulled his sleeves and wiped his sweat, panting and standing outside the door of the living room and looking in, "Where is the master?" ”

"Upstairs, what's wrong?"

"Go quickly, go and tell the master," Yu Tong said breathlessly, "There are many people blocking the entrance of the Literature Museum, both students and the families of the deceased, clamoring for the Criminal Department to close the case quickly and ask for the corpse."

Pingtong's face was solemn, and he didn't avoid suspicion, and immediately pulled his sleeve and ran upstairs to Tongbing.

This side of the jade in the pharmacy is so worried that the eyebrows are pulled together, the table of several bowls of all kinds of unreacted medicine liquid poured into the basin of water at the feet, took the medicine spoon on the spread out of a few kraft paper scooped some black medicine powder into the bowl one by one, and took a bamboo tube from the table, added water and shook evenly, in order to avoid poison, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief sprinkled with red snake pollen soaked in water, poured the water in the bamboo tube into the bowl, while watching the change of water color, while picking up the manuscript of medicinal herbs that had been transcribed and summarized in the past few years and flipping through it, Trying to find the origin of the nameless poison from the clues.

She had deduced the source of the poison, but it was troublesome to verify that they had been poisoned from the dead bodies that had no trace, and she needed to be prepared to be foolproof so that she would not fall off the chain.

There was a knock on the door, and he was staring intently at a bowl of potions that had given birth to subtle changes.

"Princess, Princess Qiyu, the Literature Museum is not good, now there is a large group of people outside shouting for the Criminal Department to close the case, the deceased's family members in the capital have also rushed to ask for the body, the officials of the Criminal Department and the guards of the Literature Museum are blocking them at the door and not letting them in, injuring a few people, provoking nearby residents to watch, the Criminal Department actually intends to close the case according to the will of the people, Lord Du is dealing with them, Lord Qi asked the little one to hurry over."

As soon as the door was opened, I saw the jade inside the door take off the wet wipe, revealing a dark face, Yu Tong was about to say it again, but she raised her hand to stop it.

"I heard it all, go to prepare the car, Pingtong went in to pack up, and came down with the medicine box and cage," as he spoke, seeing Yu Tong's fate, he quickly ran downstairs, Yiyu handed the handkerchief in his hand to Pingtong, rubbed his sore forehead, stretched out his hand to let Pinghui hold it, and went back to the room to change clothes, she knew that the other party would not let the case be closed so easily, and she didn't want to trouble it, but there was a tough battle to fight later.

Pingtong took a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose and entered the house, and when he walked to the table, he saw at a glance that in the two cages with the cloth cover lifted, one sparrow fluttered its wings and hit the cage frame back and forth, while the other finch stood quietly on the shelf and combed its feathers.

Today's sun is very spicy, just past the time, there is no hotter time than this time, the front of the Literature Museum is surrounded by water, it is simply more lively than the vegetable field in the morning of the West City, on the long street, the literati who heard the news from other places, the scholars who stayed outside the Literature Museum for two days, the family members who cried and begged for the corpse, the onlookers, all the people inside and outside were full of people, all of them were about to stand from the street to the end of the alley, and even a few places under the shade of the trees were parked under the official's carriage, the small curtain was lifted, and the crowd was seen to see the excitement, and the chaos was full of human voices, crying, Loud and quiet, angry and angry, and even more uneven:

"Don't push me out of the way, we want to see the corpse, stop outside on such a hot day, isn't it bad to abuse people"

"Woooooo You murderers and eaters have destroyed people, but how can we live as orphans and widows, woo"

"Why don't you let us see the corpse, you officials are still justified in beating people"

"The Literature Museum went too far this time, disregarding human life, I heard that more than 20 people died in one night, and these days have passed, and there is not even a single explanation."

"Shhh

"Why, if I say a few fair words, I can't be arrested, at the feet of this son of heaven, is there any royal law?"

"Alas, brother Tai, look away, the King of Wei is powerful, the editing of this Kun Yuanlu is adhering to the holy will, I have a friend who works in the Criminal Department, to put it mildly, there is nothing to investigate in this case, it is neither poisoning nor murder, it is clearly a group of poor people who were urged to die of labor for the merits of their boss."

"It's hateful, it's hateful to hear that King Wei is famous and virtuous, it turns out that he is such a good and happy person, what kind of books do you make up, it is insulting to Siwen, and you read the books of sages in vain."

The noise was getting louder and louder, if it weren't for the two guards and officials who stopped in front of them, I was afraid that the door of this literature museum would be squeezed through, and several officials of the criminal department were escorted by the officials and stood on the steps, constantly calming the commotion of the crowd, but no one listened to them at all.

Li Ke sat in an inconspicuous carriage, looking at the situation outside with a smile from the window, Shen Manyun dressed up as a man and lay on his chest, puzzled: "Didn't you say that the people who made trouble a few days ago were all cooked by Princess Wei, what is going on?" ”

Pinched her delicate face, Li Ke chuckled, "You can't be our Wei prince and I are the only opponent, there are many people in Chang'an City who don't like him, but no one dares to say anything on weekdays, this time he is detained in the palace, and he is about to collapse, and he doesn't want to fall into the well when he hears the wind." ”

Shen Manyun nodded knowingly, thought about it, and asked worriedly, "Nothing will go wrong, didn't I hear yesterday that Princess Wei personally went to the big library building, it is rumored that this new princess is a smart and clever person." ”

Li Ke snorted disdainfully, "A little woman, what kind of storm can you make," he said, and a cruel smile appeared on his face, "As soon as this case is concluded, Li Tai will be infamous and discredited." With so many pairs of eyes watching, they all made trouble among the people, my father loves face very much, and he will never protect him like the last time he stole the library, then Kun Yuanlu He doesn't want to repair anymore, I don't know who will do it for him, and when he knows that he has worked hard to make wedding dresses for others, I don't know if he will blow up his lungs, hahaha..."

Smiling, he lowered the curtains, didn't know what to remember, and said secretly: Compared to this, he is more worried about the situation in the palace, the mother concubine only passed the news this morning, including the Lin Palace's ban, the Tai Doctor's Office has a tight mouth, and I don't know if the fifth child is awake.

Inside the door of the Literature Museum, Du Chuke looked at the noisy scene outside with a tense face, heard the footsteps behind him, and turned his head to see Gao Zhixian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, who rushed over from the side door, the cousin of the deceased Empress Changsun and the father-in-law of Changsun Xian.

"Senior brother," Du Chuke flickered, then frowned and looked out, "Even you are disturbed, and look at how to retreat these foolish people." ”

"Brother Du," Gao Zhixian let Gao Zijian stand behind, and walked to his side unhurriedly, without talking to him, he heard the scene outside for a while, shook his head and said, "Fortunately, this case can be solved today, otherwise I really don't know what to do." ”

Du Chuke was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and said, "What are you talking about, what can you do today, isn't the case still unsolved?" ”

"Oh," Gao Zhixian smiled apologetically, raised his hand and patted his slightly wrinkled forehead, "I actually forgot to inform you, Brother Du didn't know, the emperor saw me early yesterday and ordered me to close the case today." ”

Du Chuke was dumbfounded, and raised his voice in disbelief, "This, how is this - the case has not been clarified yet, how to conclude it"

Gao Zhixian rolled up his sleeves, looked at a few women who were crying and fell to the ground outside the door, and said slowly: "Brother Du, the matter has come to this point, what is the point of delaying it any longer, how people die, you and I both know in our hearts, it is good to repair books, and it is normal to seek fame and benefit people, but if you are too impatient, something big will happen after all," Gao Zhixian rolled his sleeves, and before Du Chuke changed his face, he turned around and changed his expression to a helpless expression, and lowered his voice:

"What's more, this is what the emperor meant."

Hearing this clear words, Du Chuke's heart suddenly cooled, his face was faintly pale, thinking about the unsolved case in the palace, he was shocked for a moment if something had been found, could it really be the King of Qi who was sent by King Wei to attack?

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, he looked up at Gao Zhixian, who was calm and relaxed, didn't stay any longer, and made up his mind to enter the palace to explore the truth and reality, so he summoned Qi Zheng, who was watching not far away, to give a few words, and then said goodbye to Gao Zhixian, and left through the side door.

"Princess Wei arrives"

In public places, the servants who opened the way for the nobles always had to shout like this, and everyone turned their heads and tiptoed to look, and saw two rows of palace guards wearing bright armor holding guns and spears to open the way, and ran to the door, and it didn't take long to make a two-person parallel road in the sea of people, and the delicate little woman with a crested hairpin in the first month of the month was hanging in a beautiful skirt and a hairpin, and a few servants walked through the middle. Step into the door of the Literature Museum without squinting.

"Gao Shangshu." Yi Yu listened to the slander of Li Tai all the way and the cry that didn't care about it, the faint fat powder on her face covered the bruises around her eyes, but she couldn't hide the anger in her heart, and she silently recited it a few times to calm down before she looked at the insiders, and didn't notice that Gao Zijian not far away was sweeping her coldly.

Gao Zhixian looked up and down at the little girl who had hurt his Gao family a while ago, and saluted her back, and Yu Yu saw Qi Zheng secretly gesturing with her, so he said perfunctory words to Gao Zhixian, and walked to the side with Qi Zheng to talk.

"How?" Yi Yu asked.

Qi Zheng seemed to be a little anxious, his eyes glanced around, he lowered his head and quickly said her words, and when Yu Yu was thinking, he hurriedly said, "Lord Du asked me to bring you a message, the emperor had an edict yesterday morning, asking the Criminal Department to close the case today, he went to the palace to ask for a forbearance, please calm this meeting and don't let the Criminal Department accept the case, wait for him to come back." The top priority is to solve the case as soon as possible, princess, have you found out? ”

Yi Yu was suspicious and then shocked, she was born to have a few more thoughts than others, thinking about talking to Li Tai in the palace the day before yesterday, thinking about it like this, she guessed that Li Shimin might not use Li You's case to plunge Li Tai into the deep valley, but he wanted to use the case of this big library to suppress Li Tai

There is a cold sweat behind her, if this is the case, then what should she do! Whether this case should be investigated or not, it is against the emperor's mind, maybe it will be worse in the future, but if it is not investigated, it will ruin Li Tai's hard work, let him suffer this injustice and be scolded by others.

"Princess, Princess, are you not feeling well?" Qi Zheng saw that her face was not good, and hurriedly asked.

"I'm fine, you-" Before Yi Yu could speak, he heard the sound outside the door suddenly rising, mixed with screams and shouts, the two looked at each other, turned around and walked out of the door, but they couldn't let the people break in, if someone took advantage of the gag to destroy the crime scene and carry away the body, then what else to investigate

"Kill someone! Someone is killed, the official is killed."

Outside the guards, a small piece of land was vacated in front of the crowd, and a thin young man lay on the ground, I don't know whether he was dead or alive, a woman wrapped in a plain towel knelt down and held him in her arms, crying incessantly, this is comparable to a boulder smashed into the water, everyone recalled, relying on how bold the people were, and rushed forward with a "bang".

The front one became a group of indignant literati, righteously and eloquently begging for justice for the family members of the deceased in the middle, those family members did not want justice, but just whined and whined to return the corpses, and behind them were noisy and noisy people, in order to seek the truth and seek a closer look, they squeezed forward desperately, wailing in a few places, no matter who stepped on whose feet, who touched whose head, who touched whose money bag, and the mother and son in front of them who wanted to die and live quietly walked away in the crowd.

The officials were just startled by the mourning woman, and did not dare to forcibly stop them, and in the blink of an eye, they were pushed back by the crowd, and were about to rush to the door.

Several persuasive officials retreated to the door in shock, Gao Zhixian frowned, nodded to the accompanying guards, and heard a high-pitched voice, overwhelming the crowd, and it could be transmitted to the next street:

"Master Shangshu of the Criminal Department is here, who dares to be presumptuous"

The common people don't see many big officials, and they don't know about the government, but Shang Shu still knows it, and the high official in charge of criminal affairs like Shang Shu of the Criminal Department is the most frightening.

"This official is the secretary of the Criminal Department," Gao Zhixian walked in front of the person with his hands behind his back, and stood on the steps so that the people under the opposite street wall could also see his figure, "Everyone, calm down, the twenty-eight lives in the big book building in one night are all sudden deaths, not homicide, the case will be closed, so please ask the family members to come in to claim the deceased, and ask the unrelated people to leave quickly." ”

Case closed?

Everyone was stunned, but before they could react, they heard a shout: "Gao Shangshu can't, this case has not been clarified, how can the case be hastily closed"

Gao Zhixian turned sideways and looked at the jade that approached him with a calm face, then took out a yellow silk handwritten edict from his sleeve and raised it, and said with a straight face: "The emperor's edict is aimed at this, ordering the lower officials to close the case today, this case has been verified by the criminal department, and Princess Wei blocked it, is it trying to resist the decree?" ”

With such a big hat buttoned down, Yi Yu lowered his head and said, "Don't dare", stretched out his hands again, and said, "It's about the reputation of the Literature Museum, dare to ask for a holy oracle." ”

Gao Zhixian touched the beard on the side of his lower lip, and generously put the yellow silk on her hand, opened it and looked at it, frowned and let go, raised his head and said: "If I don't remember the fork, there is a rule in the new law interrupt that says, 'The case of the day begins in Chenluo and falls in You', and you close the case before you reach You, I'm afraid it doesn't make sense." ”

Gao Zhixian's eyes flashed, and she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart when she saw the ground, and then said: "I didn't expect that the princess was also proficient in the law." ”

"A little dabbling," Yi Yu pinched the emperor's hand, did not rush to return it, suppressed the uncomfortable, looked back at the courtiers who were ranked in the third rank, and said, "After my investigation, the deceased are not normal sudden deaths, but poison, and please ask the adults to open a trial now, and let me solve the doubts on my behalf." ”

Maybe against the emperor's will, it will be even worse in the future, but it is absolutely impossible for her to watch Li Tai being suppressed like this and let those people die unjustly.

"Didn't Gao mishear, Princess Wei wants to try this case?" Without waiting for Yi Yu to answer, he continued nonchalantly: "Shu Gao can't be accompanied, and it is not the princess's turn to take care of the case of the Criminal Department." ”

This is bluntly said, it is to ridicule her for not being able to do anything, Yu Yu is not surprised, she knows very well that Du Chuke, who is ordered to assist in the investigation of the case, is not in front of her, she is a princess, but she has no decree and holy will, how can she not control the case of the Criminal Department, just said that, she just wanted to test him. Looking at the crowd outside that had not been quiet for a long time, Yi Yu's face was anxious, and then he looked at Gao Zhixian, who had an uncooperative attitude in front of him, and said with a stiff face:

"Then please also ask Lord Gao to act in accordance with the law, and the case cannot be closed until the time is reached."

Gao Zhixian was silent, and just when Yi Yu was a little out of breath, he raised his hand and pointed to the crowd outside where the commotion was gradually ringing out, and said, "Gao will act according to the law, but this public sentiment is indignant, and if it drags on, it will cause chaos. ”

"It's not a bother." Seeing that he was relieved, Yi Yu handed back Huang Juan's hands, turned to face the crowd outside and began to push, took a step forward, took a long breath, swept everyone, and said loudly:

"Everyone, please be quiet, listen to my advice," she paused, waited for her voice to be quieter, ignored the few sharp-voiced fleas, and continued, "Twenty-eight people in the big library died in one night, it is really painful, people are in the Literature Museum, and the Literature Museum will definitely give you an explanation." ”

"The people who said it soundly have been killed by you, what else do you have to explain, and you can't pay for our lives, quickly return my eldest brother's body, and let him be buried in peace than staying in this pickled place"

The man in his early twenties who was shouting in front of the crowd was a man in his early twenties, protecting his mother with one hand, and shouting in a high voice with one fist raised, ushering in a roar of promise, and suddenly covered the voice of the remaining jade, and the momentum was quite terrifying.

The movement here in the Literature Museum, people from all walks of life have heard about it, and they have stepped to see the excitement, and a few have to be mentioned, for example, Cheng Xiaofeng, who was riding a horse and standing under a tree with a worried face, for example, the three people sitting in a carriage not far from her.

"Heh, it's really lively, it's a lot of fun," Li Yuanchang looked out from the opposite window and said, "I didn't think that the fourth child was still a bold and responsible person, you said that so many people were not afraid of her." ”

Li Yuanjia sat opposite him, withdrew his flickering gaze from the window, lowered his head and played with the ring on his waist, "How do you know she's not afraid." ”

"Giggles, Brother Jia doesn't know, this Princess Wei is very bold," Changsun Xi put down the curtains, turned his head and spit out his pink and colorful little tongue mischievously at the two, "Xi'er is timid, she doesn't dare to show her head like this." ”

Li Yuanchang looked at her with a slightly dark look in his eyes, smiled, reached out and touched the top of her head lovingly, and said, "You should be much more delicate than her." ”

"Uncle Seventh laughs at Xi'er, how can Xi'er compare with the princess." The eldest grandson shook his head.

"You-"

"What is her origin, and how does she compare to you?" Li Yuanjia robbed his brother's words, raised his head and smiled lightly at Changsun Xi, his eyebrows and eyes were kind, which made her face redden, and he turned his head to open the curtain again, Li Yuanchang raised his eyebrows and said nothing, and the three of them continued to look outside.

"What about the King of Wei, why don't you ask the King of Wei to come out and explain, he has killed so many lives, what can you do as a woman" This literati spoke, because he had a lot of merit and fame, but he was not like ordinary people who buckled up and covered it.

Looking at the crowd below, all of them looked fierce, if they were not afraid of this group of people rioting, it was a lie, even if there was a group of guards in front of them, they couldn't help but be afraid, Yi Yu's eyes were connected with the man who was protecting the old woman, she barely showed a kind face, and walked closer to the front, and said in a good voice:

"Don't worry, this son, I hear that your accent is like a southerner, my grandfather once lived in Yangzhou, dare to ask where your ancestors are?"

The man hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly replied, "Fuzhou." ”

"It's Fuzhou," Yi Yu nodded, "Then when did you move to the capital?" ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and said with red eyes, "Last year." ”

Yi Yu nodded again, looked at the people nearby who were quiet because of their puzzled questions, and stretched out his hand to the south, "Your mansion is now living on Changmingfang East Street in the south of the city?" ”

“... Yes, yes. ”

"That's right," Yi Yu took a step back, pointed around with his hand, and said in a soft voice, "The deceased's family members here now, like this son who came to collect the corpse, have only moved to Chang'an in recent years and now live on Changmingfang East Street, please raise your hand and ask me to take a look." ”

No one moved, and among the hundreds of people, not a single hand was raised for half an hour.

Yi Yu secretly sneered, took a few steps back and went up the steps again, slightly bowed his head and stared at the much quieter people, his heart was still tightly closed in the palace, with a bit of mockery on his face, his voice was not loud, but it was very sharp:

"As everyone knows, the Literature Museum widely accepts people with lofty ideals, but all students who are humble and have good conduct have the opportunity to enter the museum, enjoy the monthly salary, free room and board, and even more, in recent years, they have participated in the compilation of Kun Yuanlu and do not want to return to their hometowns. There is a saying that the grace of knowing is more than rebirth, even horses and animals know how to be friendly and good, and there are farmers and snakes, undressing and being bitten by them. Now, there is an accident in the Literature Museum, the prince was framed, and he was slandered as a person who rejoiced in his achievements, ridiculous, but you also believe in this foul language, and you don't help or thank him, but you come to smear his reputation, and you don't even dare to admit that he is generous with you, isn't it worse than horses and animals, and is as cold-blooded and ruthless as a snake?"

A reprimand, the end of the words was astringent, and then the crows were silent, as if the whole street was frozen in the cold heart of her words and sentences under this ** spicy sun.

I don't know how many times passed, who took the lead first, someone in the crowd raised his hand high, and shouted at the top of his voice: "I, I live in Changmingfang East Street, I don't believe that those classmates were killed by the prince."

As soon as this sound fell, one arm after another in the crowd was raised, and a series of shouts rang out, as if to burst people's eardrums:

"My family also lives on Changmingfang East Street, I thought those people had nothing to do with the prince."

"How can the prince be a person who is so happy, I don't believe it"

"I don't believe it either"

"Woo," the old woman who was protected by her son pushed him away, stumbled forward, held her chest and cried to the widow, "Every year is flooded, my son has failed to pass the examination year after year, if it weren't for the prince's kindness, my family would have starved to death in that southern land, my son often said that the prince treated us like a mountain, even if he took his life, it is not an exaggeration, this corpse is not received by the old woman, we must find out who framed the prince and killed my son"

At this time, the voices were boiling, but it was a change in the direction of the wind, and the origin was different. Looking at this flushed face, Yi Yu's heart gradually warmed up again.

"Old lady, please get up quickly," she pushed aside the guards, hugged the woman who was about to kneel, held her hand tightly, and said in a nasal voice, "Your old man can rest assured, those twenty-eight lives that were killed, the prince and I will not let them die unjustly." ”

"Hmph, it's her bad again." Looking at the group of foolish people who hated the same enemy, Li Ke had a ball of anger brewing in his eyes, and threw the cup in his hand back to the edge of the table, Shen Manyun hurriedly stroked his chest, and said softly:

"Don't be angry, master, no matter how much she can instigate people's hearts, this case has to be closed today, the Literature Museum can't always be banned, they can't find evidence, and those lives have to be carried by King Wei."

"Yes, I can't escape him." Li Ke was in a slightly better mood, stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her waist, lowered his head and grabbed her lips, and gnawed on her like venting.

The three people who watched the play in the other carriage were silent for a long time before anyone spoke.

"This Princess Wei is a little interesting." Li Yuanchang patted his knee and said.

Li Yuanjia put down the jade ring on his waist, took the tea handed by Changsun Xi, took a sip slowly, lowered his eyes to cover the brilliance in his eyes, "Such a smart woman is really rare." ”

Changsun Xi's little hand holding the teapot shook, turned his head to look at the far less clear figure outside the window, and secretly bit his tongue.
