Chapter 712: Rumors Spread

"Have you heard?"

A middle-aged talent wearing a square scarf gathered the idle people in the teahouse who were celebrating the New Year in one sentence.

Most of the idle people here are relatively decently dressed and clean, with ruddy faces.

Mixed with a few ordinary people wearing blue cloth pants and long black cotton jackets.

"What? What's up? ”

"What did you hear?"

Everyone surrounded the middle-aged Xiucai, and they asked nonsense.

The teahouse guy squeezed in from behind the crowd with a rag on his shoulder, a tea bag pinned to his waist, and a large teapot in both hands.

The guy took a separate tea bag from the tea bag on his waist and changed a cup of tea for the middle-aged Xiucai.

"Do you want to talk about the tragedy of the prefect's yamen yesterday?"

The middle-aged Xiucai took a sip of tea.

The store's individual tea bags are indeed more fragrant than the tea in the ordinary large teapot.

After the middle-aged Xiucai tasted the tea, he had a pleasant expression on his face.

Putting down the teacup, he gently patted his palm on the table, and his fingers moved one by one.

"But I want to talk about the tragedy on the side of Fuya Street yesterday."

The crowd on the crowd suddenly became more gossipy on their faces.

Before the middle-aged Xiu could speak, the crowd had already started a whispered discussion.

"What I heard is that there was a group of bandits in the mountains who came from nowhere, and they felt that there was a lot of cash in the capital during the New Year's Festival, so they rushed into the house and ransacked it."

"Where are the bandits, they are so cruel, they just loot their goods, how can they even kill all the people?"

"Then you don't know, these bandits in the mountains, they can eat human flesh raw! What's the point of killing a few people? The fact that those who died tragically was not eaten raw at the scene was because these bandits wanted to run away early. ”

In the crowd, there was a gasp.

In these years, especially in the people of Jingshi, the feeling of the arrival of the Ming Dynasty is the most intuitive.

Nowadays, several times in the streets and alleys of Yingtian City, in the back kitchens of those teahouses, restaurants, restaurants, and restaurants, a lot of kitchen leftovers are thrown away every day.

In this Yingtian City, I haven't seen Suo Qi'er for many years.

But if you wear ragged clothes, your face will be yellow.

As long as he is seen by the people in the official mansion in Yingtian City, without saying a word, he will pull this person to the almshouse of the official mansion without saying anything.

It doesn't matter what's going on.

A new set of clothes, a spare change of clothes, and a dry ration for several days are the minimum guarantees.

If it is confirmed that it is a common person who has been exiled to Beijing, then the government will directly send this person to the government-run factory.

It is precisely because of this kind of preferential treatment that in the early days of the implementation of the policy, countless people disguised themselves as people in distress and took the opportunity to get this treatment.

It's just that the government is naturally not stupid.

After several follow-up verifications, although the gang was not punished, the wages for working in the government-run factories were all fined.

I thought I was a little smart, but I didn't expect to work for the government once.

After the initial rectification, Ying Tianfu's relief treatment can be regarded as truly implemented.

Ying Tiancheng is indeed very different from before now.

That's really the best place.

I haven't heard of the matter of robbers killing people and intercepting goods for many years.

But soon, a different voice was heard in the crowd.

"How I heard it is different from what you hear."

"Oh? I want to hear about it! ”

"Here's what happened......"

So, a story about vendetta soon spread in the teahouse.

The three families who lived in the house across the street from the government were because they had offended people in the past. The three people who died the day before yesterday were only the first warning.

Those enemies are also exquisite.

As long as the three families can apologize, they will not kill again.

But these three families are all hard-necked, but they are unmoved, and even let out words to the enemy on the other side, and they have the ability to kill them.

Now, where can the enemy on the other side endure it.

What if you move to Fuya Street?

It's not that he lives in the government.

Kill!

So, there was a thirty-seven lives in the house yesterday.

This man is probably a storyteller.

A vendetta joke is said to be as if you have witnessed it with your own eyes.

And the middle-aged Xiucai was not annoyed.

It was only after the men had finished speaking that they put the empty teacups on the table and looked at them.

"Brothers, this is just hearsay, and let me tell you why."

As he spoke, the middle-aged Xiucai glanced at the guy on the side.

The guy is very sensible, and immediately stepped forward to renew the water for Xiucai.

The middle-aged Xiu saw that everyone looked over again, and then slowly spoke.

"This thing is not a murder, nor is it a so-called vendetta."

"There's a big secret in this matter!"

"I'm just afraid, you don't dare to listen to it, and you don't dare to close your eyes at night!"

The sense of mystery was suddenly pulled up by this middle-aged showman.

The crowd of onlookers squeezed inward again.

"Say it quickly!"

"This brother, just say, it's almost an hour after I finish speaking, and I'll invite you to drink wine and eat meat next door!"

"Yes, yes, yes! We are all Yingtian, can we still be afraid? Impossible! ”

The middle-aged Xiucai raised his eyebrows and said, "Then I can say it." ”

"Say!"

"Speak quickly!"

The middle-aged Xiucai smiled, and began to speak: "Do you know, who are the people in that house?" ”

"Naturally, it is the people of the Song family in Wuxi, Suzhou Prefecture, the Luo family in Changsha Prefecture, and the Qi family in Ji'an Prefecture."

As soon as the man finished answering, he continued: "These three families all entered Yingtian City a few years ago, and the little ladies of the three families are the only three female officials in our Ming Dynasty today!" ”

The middle-aged Xiucai just smiled on his face and asked softly: "Then do you know that these three families were imprisoned in Beijing near the New Year, what happened?" ”

There was a whisper in the crowd.

Someone got in and whispered: "I heard that the elder cousin of the husband's younger brother of the third sister-in-law of my second uncle's family said that the three families escorted the little ladies of each family into Beijing in order to wait for the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Your Majesty let me, and the crown prince ascended the throne, so he entered the palace and wanted to be a mother." ”

"Seems to be the case......"

"Anyway, in two days, it will be the fifteenth day of the first month, and recently we have come back from many other places in Yingtiancheng, and I heard that they are all busy waiting for the Zen ceremony."

The middle-aged Xiucai tapped his fingers on the table: "Yes!" These three families came to Beijing for this matter, climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix! ”

The onlookers showed a touch of disdain on their faces.

But I also sighed in my heart, these ordinary girls, didn't have the opportunity to think about climbing the dragon and the phoenix.

The middle-aged Xiucai took a sip of tea, and then said: "It's just that later you also know that His Royal Highness Taisun left the palace after causing a conflict in the palace. The Xicheng project started after the conflict between His Royal Highness the Taisun and the palace. ”

His Royal Highness!

The matter was suddenly mentioned on the head of the imperial grandson, and the onlookers suddenly became ablaze with gossip.

The middle-aged Xiucai said again: "Maybe you may not know that our Royal Highness the Taisun, since the conflict with the palace, Xiao Chinese New Year's Eve has never returned to the palace, even Chinese New Year's Eve has never returned to the palace!" ”

"There is such a thing?"

"I've never heard of this before!"

"The royal family has always been harmonious, how can this be?"

“……”

The onlookers began to gossip again.

The middle-aged Xiucai said unhurriedly: "Later, the grandson didn't know where to know the news, and learned about the entry of these three little ladies into Beijing." And then...... The three little ladies also entered the West City, in a house on the edge of the beautiful viewing lake that they had heard of repairing. ”

"The golden house is hidden! We all know that! ”

Hearing the middle-aged Xiucai talk about this incident, the people immediately echoed it, and showed a laugh that only men understand.

The middle-aged Xiucai smiled, shook his head and said, "Let's not say anything about the golden house for the time being." In the West City, I don't know what's going on.

Let's go on to talk about the tragic death of these three families, you may not know, a few days ago, after the little girls of the three families were taken away by His Royal Highness the Grand Sun, the grandmothers of the three families went to Ying Tianfu, but Ying Tianfu did not pay attention to this matter, and drove the three of their families out.

Then I thought it was nothing, but who knew that the three grandmothers who went to the government that day died together the day before yesterday.

Finally, yesterday, the three families had just moved to the house opposite the prefect's yamen, and they all died in that house before they heard that they didn't have time to clean up. ”

The middle-aged man seemed to be restoring this matter.

But between words, there are already tendencies.

Onlookers speculated.

"Will it be ......?"

"This should be heavenly! Egg! ”

"Speaking of which, does this matter have to fall on the grandson......

"How?"

"Think about it, if the grandson doesn't get the little ladies of the three families away, will there be no grandmothers of the three families going to the prefect's yamen to look for people? Is it possible that these three families will not die tragically in that house? ”

"That's not right! What you say is as if it was His Royal Highness the Emperor who killed the murderer! ”

"Then even if it's not someone killed by Taisun, he can assign someone to kill someone."

“……”

In the teahouse, all of a sudden, it was lively.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Are you suspecting that the murder was instigated by His Royal Highness Taisun? Then haven't you seen that now those three little ladies have all become court officials? If the court is like this, how can His Highness kill people? ”

Some are skeptical, others are explaining.

The middle-aged Xiucai looked at the chaos in front of him, always smiling.

waited until the quarrel in the crowd was quieter, and the middle-aged Xiu put down the teacup in his hand.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm just listening to acquaintances in the public gate."

"I heard that there is a lot of trouble in the palace now, and there are great contradictions. Between the words, it seems to be about the future of the grandson...... Well...... Anyway, not very optimistic. ”

"Why did the imperial court suddenly do something that has not happened for thousands of years?"

"Think about it, the little ladies of the three families were all in Xicheng, and no one knew what would happen."

"And now?"

The middle-aged Xiucai interjected, and finally dropped a question.

The surrounding onlookers fell silent.

But soon, someone raised their heads.

"Now those three little ladies are officials, and they are right under the noses of all of us! Something to do, something to happen, we all know! ”

"So, what does this have to do with this now?"

“……”

The eyes of the onlookers looked at the middle-aged Xiucai sitting at the scene.

The middle-aged Xiucai looked at the guy on the side.

The guy immediately stepped forward and refilled the water.

Onlookers' eyes widened.

Only waited for the middle-aged Xiu to take a sip of tea, and then he slowly spoke: "Snatching love with a horizontal knife, anger in my heart, and resentment in my chest, isn't this reason enough?" ”

The middle-aged Xiucai mysteriously dropped a sentence.

Then, before the onlookers could react, they got up and walked away.

Wait until a long time has passed.

The whole teahouse felt like a pot had exploded.

"There was a conflict between the imperial grandson and the palace, the two sides were deadlocked, fighting each other, and the palace snatched love with a knife, causing the grandson to be angry and angry, and killed thirty-seven people in anger!"

Soon, such a conclusion was reached.

In the blink of an eye, the guy who was expecting to win over more business today watched everyone recede like a tide.

After half a day's effort, rumors were rampant in the entire Yingtian City.

An event involving many parties, complex content, and involving the royal family spread throughout Yingtian City in the shortest possible time.

And on the Xicheng project site.

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Shangbing, with a team of Jinyi Guards and Yu Linwei, hurriedly came in from the outside and rushed all the way to the mansion on the edge of the viewing lake.

There was no trace of Zhu Yunxi, and the two of them rushed to the viewing mountain with people.

By the time the two of them rushed to the top of the mountain, they were already sweating profusely.

At this time, I saw that Zhu Yunxi happened to be sitting in the pavilion on the top of the mountain, enjoying tea and watching the scenery.

Zhu Shangbing was about to speak, but was stopped by Zhu Gaochi reaching out.

Zhu Gaochi looked back at the Jinyi Wei Baihu and Yulin Wei Baihu who were following behind him: "Fence this place, no one is allowed to enter, dare to approach the snooper, take it!" ”

The two hundred households immediately received the order, and turned around and went down the mountain to arrange for people with knives.

Only then did Zhu Gaochi lead Zhu Shangbing into the pavilion.

As soon as Zhu Shangbing arrived in the pavilion, he shouted at Zhu Yunxi: "It's a big deal!" You're in real trouble right now! For the rest, let Brother Chi talk to you. ”

After finishing speaking, Zhu Shangbing carried an herbal teapot on the table and filled his mouth with water.

Zhu Gaochi sat in front of Zhu Yunxi and looked at Zhu Yunxi with a calm face seriously.

"You know everything?"

Zhu Yunxi blinked, put down the things in his hand, and clapped his hands.

Zhu Gaochi only saw at this time that Sun Cheng, the original envoy of Jinyi Weibei Town, actually walked out from another direction.

"Why are you here!"

Zhu Gaochi's eyes shrank, and his face was suspicious.
