Chapter 48: The East Window Incident
Compared with the anxiety of the Sky Whale Gang, Teng Jingcai was in a good mood at the moment, and when he returned to the backyard, he called the concubine to seek pleasure, and his appetite also had lust.
In the second half of the night, Teng Jingcai suddenly felt tightness in his chest, and gradually began to have nightmares, and then woke up from the dream, and he found that the concubine's hand was pressed against his chest.
"Ho ......"
Teng Jingcai gently moved the concubine's arm away, turned sideways and continued to sleep.
Just falling asleep, Teng Jing suddenly remembered one thing, he remembered that the warlock surnamed Zhou seemed to have said before, his spells are also very limited, some martial artists are full of blood, and when they meet people who are strong in martial arts, they are not effective, and it is impossible for them to be effective when they meet martial arts innate people.
Martial arts to the congenital, congenital master?
The words of the Whale Gang boy came back to mind that day......
Teng Jingcai straightened up suddenly, that person was lying! The spell surnamed Zhou was impossible to repel a martial artist from the innate martial arts!
Thinking back to the appearance of the person surnamed Yu who was seriously injured and unable to stand on his own, the more Teng Jingcai thought about it, the more afraid he became, wouldn't it be impossible at all? Those who don't know the surname Zhou were also arrested, right?
Teng Jingcai couldn't sleep now, and waited anxiously until dawn, so he couldn't wait to put on his clothes and prepare to go to the helm of the Sky Whale Gang, but he couldn't see the person who spoke from the Sky Whale Gang, so he was invited in to drink some tea, and waited until a hall master came to chat for a few words, saying that the master of the gang had gone out.
Teng Jingcai did not give up, waited until the afternoon before leaving, and instructed the people of the Sky Whale Gang to ask them to help the leader come back to find him.
But the next day, Teng Jingcai waited at home for a day without waiting for anyone to come, and he went to the helm of the Sky Whale Gang early in the morning of the third day, this time he only saw some small minions, and no one else was seen, and he was still polite and did not dare to slack off.
Back in the study at home, Teng Jingcai was depressed.
It was also at this moment that the servant came cautiously with a letter.
"Master, there is a letter from Yuezhou......"
"What, give it to me!"
Teng Jingcai grabbed the letter and couldn't wait to tear it open, and his face became worse and worse after browsing left and right.
With a "bang", Teng Jingcai slammed it on the desk, but the pain in his right hand immediately made him grin.
"Okay, you're a Yuanjiang County order, it's so poisonous......"
Teng Jingcai shuddered just thinking about it.
"No, you can't sit still!"
The next moment, Teng Jingcai immediately began to quietly rummage around the house to find some valuables hidden.
-----------------
When the Sky Whale Gang and Teng Jingcai were tossing in Wuzhou, another expedited text from Yuanjiang County had already arrived in Chengtianfu.
This time, the performance focused on the details of witchcraft and evil spirits, and unlike the last time, it immediately attracted the attention of the Criminal Department.
However, someone once again quietly sent the news, and when Sheng Shuying, the servant of the ministry, knew about it in the middle of the night, the whole person sat on the couch at home.
"It's over...... What else is this bastard doing? It's going to kill me! ”
I didn't expect Teng Jingcai to dare to touch the witch Gu to harm people, this is a taboo today, ten heads are not enough to drop!
"Shhh...... Can't sit still! ”
Sheng Shuying shook violently, crumpled the note in his hand, and then immediately rummaged in the study, and found the secret letter sent by Teng Jingcai before, the whole person trembled slightly, took a deep breath several times before barely calming down, and immediately began to study the ink and pick up the book.
The next day was the court meeting, Sheng Shuying, who had not slept all night, put on his court clothes early and entered the palace.
When it was finally time for the court meeting, a group of civil and military officials lined up to enter the Zichen Palace, but the emperor had not yet come, and Sheng Shuying was already too nervous.
"Shan, are you hot?"
A colleague on the side was confused, Sheng Shuying reached out and touched his forehead, full of fine sweat, and could only say embarrassedly.
"Yes, it's a little hot......"
"The emperor has arrived—"
Sheng Shuying lifted his spirits and looked up, and the ministers shouted together: "Welcome to the Holy One-"
Under the guidance of the great eunuch, a tall middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe and a black gauze wing crown sat on the dragon chair and said calmly.
"All love is exempt!"
After the eunuch stood still, it was customary to raise his voice.
"There's a book—"
When Sheng Shuying looked at the ministers, at the officials of the Criminal Department, at the Yin of the Chengtian Mansion and several other officials, he saw that everyone looked like they were about to come out, and he hurriedly came out of the crowd with the chapter as soon as possible.
"Your Majesty, the minister Sheng Shuying has a book, the minister wants to sue my old ministry for corruption and perversion of the law to make money and kill him, and his person is even more shameless to try to let Weichen take refuge with a secret letter, which is really an unforgivable crime, and the minister also has to tell himself that he doesn't know anyone, and he didn't find out that his former subordinates committed such crimes, please punish the emperor——"
The person on the dragon chair frowned slightly, and looked at the minister below, although there was a little distance, it could be seen that Sheng Shuying was very nervous.
Normally, this kind of thing is directly submitted to the Criminal Department, even if it is really sent to the imperial front, you can go to the imperial study in the afternoon, but Sheng Shuying is in a hurry to choose to play directly at the court meeting?
The emperor's expression became a little intriguing.
"Bring it in."
As soon as the emperor spoke, the eunuch took the chapter and handed it to the imperial court, and after the emperor browsed it, he looked in the direction of the criminal department.
"Si Jingxiu, can you send a Yuezhou songwen, can you know that Teng Jingcai's case is involved?"
The secretary of the criminal department came out of the group of ministers.
"Back to Your Majesty, the Criminal Department has indeed received the relevant documents, but two letters have been received, because it involves the imperial court officials, the previous one is already under consideration, and is ready to discuss with the Supervision Department, and yesterday received another ......"
As he spoke, Shangshu of the Criminal Department glanced at Sheng Shuying, and then took out a piece of music from his arms.
"The minister has roughly clarified the content, please take a look at it."
"Bring it in."
The emperor still said a word, but after the eunuch sent the chapter and unfolded it, he began to sit upright, and his face gradually began to change, and then he glanced at Sheng Shuying, and snorted coldly in his heart.
"Sheng Aiqing is worthy of being a pillar of the country, but he believed in the wrong villain, maybe Teng Jingcai was still safe when you were in Wuzhou."
After saying this, the emperor looked at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department and said lightly.
"A small Wuzhou general judgment, teamed up with businessmen to harm so many folk women, just for the benefit of prostitution? Afterwards, he did not hesitate to ask the demon to harm people with witches for this matter, so I am afraid that there are still some things that the Yuanjiang County Order did not dare to play......"
With that, the emperor looked at his ministers.
"Dare to harm people with the law of witchcraft, and even the people in the rivers and lakes dare to get involved in this matter, the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, Yushitai, this case will be investigated by me, Sheng Aiqing will stay in office first, if it is not related, it will naturally not wronged you."
"Your Ministers obey!"
Several officials immediately responded, and Sheng Shuying on the side broke out in a cold sweat when she responded.
The emperor looked down expressionlessly, but in addition to the matter of witchcraft that disturbed his bad mood, his eyes also glanced at the music on the side again, midnight ghost trial?
-----------------
There was a gradual turmoil in the imperial court, but for the Yuanjiang County Ya, the days were calm, and there were no more twists and turns for a month after the night attack.
And Yi Shuyuan didn't run around during this time, in addition to supplementing the content of the county chronicles, he also savored what he had gained during this time.
In the past month, Yi Shuyuan has lived a life of two points and one line between the dining hall and the library, and he has never even been to the dormitory, which is almost equivalent to an alternative state of retreat, and it is not until today that God has come to an end.
For today's Yi Shuyuan, every harvest in his cultivation is worth rejoicing, not to mention that he will have a sense of accomplishment from self-realization, but it is a pity that there is still a considerable distance to go from virtual to real completely.
Sitting in front of the bookcase, Yi Shuyuan's mentality, Qing Song, who had already retained the previous harvest, once again flipped through the book given by Huang Hongchuan, and played with the ebony with the other hand, and nourished it with his own aura.
Although Yi Shuyuan didn't know any refining methods, he felt that it would definitely not be wrong to nourish with his own aura.
And Yi Shuyuan has been able to memorize the whole book in front of him, but he will still subconsciously turn it over.
At this moment, Yi Shuyuan was reading the book, while recalling the previous cultivation, and his heart couldn't help but be moved.
If I can really manifest this way, then in the future, a single thought of reality and reality can transform thousands of thoughts in my heart, and I will turn from illusion to reality, which should be called a change of earth!
Yi Shuyuan, who had already had half an experience, couldn't help but smile again, so he had too many things to learn and adapt, if it weren't for the fact that he had really practiced martial arts seriously, and his internal strength cultivation had reached the innate realm, then it was unknown whether he could succeed this halfway.
However, Yi Shuyuan was not in a hurry, but felt a little complacent, traveling through the red dust to see thousands of people and seeing thousands of things and being able to do his own way, why not do it.
"Hey, that's fun, too! If I can do it half a time, I can do it once, and if I can do it once, I can do it ten thousand times...... Tsk, it seems a little too ambitious to be far away......"
Muttering to himself, Yi Shuyuan suddenly looked at the door.
After a while, a child came to the neighborhood, and he walked around the courtyard there, then stood on tiptoe and looked carefully inside the library, only to see that the people inside were also looking outside.
The child scratched his head in embarrassment and walked away.
However, Yi Shuyuan put down the ebony and the book and stood up and walked to the door, he stood in front of the library door and looked at the child who left silently, it was the one he rescued that day.
"Is there no one with you?"
Yi Shuyuan's voice was calm, trying not to scare the other party, the child was about to leave, but when he heard Yi Shuyuan's words, he stopped and stood in the corridor about a dozen steps away, and replied a little crampedly.
"Just go around where you can go......
The voice has a distinctly non-local accent.
"Have you been to see your father?"
The child's expression became a little flustered and frightened, and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and replied timidly.
"The adults took me there, and they said that person was my father...... My lord, can I go? ”
"It's okay, you can go."
Hearing Yi Shuyuan say this, the child was on the verge of amnesty, and hurriedly trotted away, he couldn't leave the county office, nor could he go to some important places, and there weren't so many people taking care of him all the time, so he could only go around where he could go, and when he got there, he could go to the canteen to eat, and he could sleep in the shop.
Yi Shuyuan thought about it, and the child reached the end of the corridor but was lying behind the pillar over there looking at this side, as if he hesitated for a while before finally speaking again.
"My lord, when is my mother coming?"
Yi Shuyuan was slightly stunned, looked at the kid and said.
"Why did you ask me? This matter should be clearer to other poor people. ”
The boy opened his mouth and said hesitantly.
"A boy told me that maybe the gentleman here would know......"
Yi Shuyuan frowned slightly, then beckoned to the kid with a soothing expression, who hesitated behind the pillar for a while, and finally walked over to Yi Shuyuan.
"Which son said that?"
"It's the son who is willing to talk to me besides you, an adult."
Yi Shuyuan smiled.
"I'm not an adult, the son you said is not from the Yamen, right?"
This kid is not allowed to leave the county office, and he usually can't see the real officials of the county government, because he is not allowed to go to those places, and even if he is just an illegitimate child, most of the other errand servants and the like don't want to see him, so the son he said may be Chu Hang, who is relatively not so easy to substitute for subjective emotions.
"I don't know...... My lord, when is my mother coming? ”
The child asked again, his eyes were full of panicked anticipation, Yi Shuyuan reached out and touched the child's head, the latter obviously wanted to dodge, but his body moved and still didn't dodge.
The child's face and hands were rough, and he did not look like he had lived a rich life since he was a child.
Looking at it, intentionally or unintentionally, Yi Shuyuan suddenly saw a faint breath changing above the child's head, and he seemed to be able to feel an anxious emotion echoing from afar.
This is, mother and son are connected.
"They, they said that when I was taken captive, something might have happened to my mother......
The child's voice seemed to be a little choked, which also interrupted Yi Shuyuan's feelings, and he frowned slightly.
"Who told you?"
"No, no one said, I went to bed at night, and I heard a few poor men in the bunk whispering in the bed at that end......"
Yi Shuyuan nodded and said.
"Don't worry, your mother is fine, she's worried about you, she will come in a while, go play."
Yi Shuyuan's voice carries a sense of tranquility that penetrates into the heart, as if it can naturally convince children.
"Thank you, thank you, your lord!"
With surprise on his face, the child bowed a few times to Yi Shuyuan, and then trotted away.
