6. Ministers
Lian Brother's father was demoted from a lieutenant of the middle cavalry of the fourth rank to the first lieutenant of Zhongxian from the sixth grade, and the grandfather's title of Earl of Xinning was hereditary, which can be regarded as compensation for the Lian family.
Fortunately, she patted her small flat chest and thought, she only lowered one honorary title, as for the title, she can't inherit it anyway when she recovers her women's clothes, and it doesn't seem to be of much use, as long as she doesn't confiscate her family property, she is still rich.
Her mother was happy and sad at the same time, "It's difficult for the daughters to get married to a good family like before." ”
In order to reorganize his family, Lian Jun stuffed money everywhere, entrusted connections to find people, and finally found a military position to garrison at the border pass. Military generals must speak with military merits in order to have a chance to be promoted.
The carriage stopped, Lian Di was leaning against the wall of the car relaxed, the car stopped suddenly, and his head hit the wall of the car, and his stomach hurt upset, which added fuel to the fire, she got up and opened the door, rushed out and knocked twice on the big black head, "Next time stop, remind the master!"
Da Hei covered his head and hid aside.
Guan Tongsheng coaxed her to go to Jingzhao Mansion, she has a big temper these days, but she has to be coaxed.
In front of the people, Brother Lian immediately hid behind Guan Tongsheng, he was the Langzhong of the Criminal Department, and she was just his catcher.
Yin Liangshi of Jingzhao Mansion rushed out of the main hall, grabbed Guan Tongsheng's wrist and walked briskly towards the morgue, "Why did you come? ”
"The minister of power is here in person?" Guan Tongsheng exclaimed, why can a retainer be so valued by the minister of power?
Even his younger brother has made several turns in his heart, this retainer must not be simple, Guan Xueshen's wish is only afraid that it will be frustrated, this will not be a simple homicide.
Inside the morgue, ice cubes were placed in the corners of the room to prolong the preservation of the body, and although there were many people standing in the room, the temperature was still several degrees colder than outside.
Guan Tongsheng and Brother Lian endured the shivering physiological impulse, walked in front of the prime minister and saluted respectfully.
Kwon stood up straight with his hands behind his back and facing the corpse, ignoring the salute of the two behind him.
The two straightened up, and Lian looked at the corpse, covered with a piece of white cotton cloth, and only the silhouette of the person could be seen.
Her eyes fell on the hands clasped behind the back of the minister, clenched hard, trembling slightly, and her knuckles turned white. He's nervous, he's a powerful person who is a great minister, what are he nervous about?
She raised her eyes and saw the gray hair peeking out under the official hat, she hadn't seen him for nearly eight years, and he was indeed older. I met my grandfather a few times when he was still alive, and at that time I only felt that he was a moody person. And now he can't control his emotions, which shows that the dead are very important to him.
Finally, the power minister let go of his hands and turned around, the prestige of the superior frightened the two of them to salute again, he stared at Guan Tongsheng sternly up and down for a moment, "If you find the murderer, Guan Langzhong, please notify the old man immediately." ”
"Yes, Zuo Xiang rest assured, Xia Guan will go all out to find the real culprit and explain to Zuo Xiang as soon as possible. ”
The minister nodded his head indiscriminately, turned around and walked out, went to the door, stopped, and confessed without looking back, "After the investigation, let people be buried as soon as possible." After saying that, he left with a group of entourage.
The two exhaled softly, and Liang Shizheng came over and asked, "Guan Langzhong, how do you investigate this case?"
When Guan Tongsheng heard this, he sighed, glanced at Brother Lian, and saw her frowning at the corpse, so he said, "Let's start with the corpse first, I don't know if it's coming?"
"Waiting outside the door, this is a special job for you from this official, if it is two days late, he will already be gone. ”
"Oh, isn't it the work of Jingzhao Mansion?"
"Guan Langzhong, if it is a work done by this government, this official is worried that your case will not be solved for a long time, I am thinking about you," he lowered his voice and said: "This work is the county official of the Yamen of Daxing County, east of the capital, and this time I came to Beijing to send the case file of the previous season to the Criminal Department." Although he is not a full-time worker now, his grandfather and father are both well-known criminal officers in the previous dynasty, and they have investigated countless cases in their lives. In the past few decades, there has not been a single case of injustice in the cases that have been examined by them. ”
"Oh, thank you so much for that, Lord Liang. ”
"You're welcome, this official can only do this for Guan Langzhong, I'll call him in. "You ask for more blessings, Liang Shizheng hurriedly flashed out the door.
The morgue fell silent instantly, and the temperature seemed to drop a few degrees more. Brother Lian hugged his arms and shivered, there were only two people in the house, she and Guan Tongsheng were the only two in the house, the sunlight outside the house somehow dimmed, and the room also darkened, and suddenly there was a feeling of ghosts.
Guan Tongsheng couldn't help but lean over to Brother Lian, reached out and grabbed her sleeve, just like countless times before, when faced with the need to fight, he always hid behind her like this.
Brother Lian turned his head and glanced at him, shook off his hand, stepped forward and stood next to the corpse, reached out and grabbed one corner of the white cotton cloth, raised his hand, and lifted the cloth away.
The door opened, and a tall figure walked in against the light, "Stand back!" said in a deep voice.
