It is said that such a thing as a dead chicken is not prudent in labor, and it is polite to do it as long as the government at the bottom comes to do it.

But the general fang is full of gentlemen, and he has no ability to stand up to his family, and he is very capable, and if there is any situation, he even has to accompany Shan Shen with a smile, and the others can't move.

Shan Shen was already busy with the affairs of His Royal Highness the Prince, and suddenly someone came to report to the official, and the report was still about the general's fang, one head and two big.

When I heard that it was during the cockfight, someone injured the chicken with a dark stone and killed the chicken, and the master on the side squirted out all the water, and shook his head in disgust.

But whether he dislikes the master, or the chicken, or the gentleman in the general's workshop, only Master Shan himself knows.

The group arrived outside the General's Square.

Seeing that the official messenger was coming, the people who gathered outside the gate to probe their brains and watch the lively people hurriedly disperse and make a way.

As soon as Shan Shen stepped in, the chief steward came out.

"Master Shan," he rubbed his hands and smiled, "I'm sorry for the trouble for you and the little boys." ”

Shan Shen snorted.

It's really troublesome.

When I walked all the way to the ring, I saw the group of well-dressed children gathered under the small building, and my eyelids jumped with caution.

I can't tell what is going on, but I feel "not good".

His eyes crossed his faces with different expressions, and sure enough, many of them were old acquaintances he had fought before.

If you want to say that you have committed any great evils, in fact, you don't have any, if you want to say that you follow the rules, you can't stand it, it's just some drunken little bastards from childhood to adulthood.

One of them is the grandson of the security marquis, whose surname is Cheng'an, who is not as weak as the crown, and can handle both civil and military affairs.

Yu Cheng'an's drunken hands were not serious, he discounted one person's arm and broke another person's front teeth, and the trouble went to Shuntian Mansion, and finally the security Hou Mansion lost a lot of money to settle down.

At this time, Yu Chengan was surrounded by people.

Seeing Shan Shen, he hurriedly raised his voice and shouted: "Master Shan, Master Shan!" They all wronged me, not that I killed the chicken, but the adults came and decided for me. ”

Shan Shen: ......

Headache.

In this kind of, having a murderer is more headache than not having a murderer.

Seeing that Master Shan frowned, the master whispered with relief: "The dead is a chicken, so Yu Gongzi is a rich man, ask and check, if it is really him, he will let him lose money, and it will definitely be over before dark today, so as not to make trouble the next day." ”

Shan Shen touched his beard, and was comforted, although not much.

The master rolled his eyes, and said, "No matter what, it's easier than the prince's things." ”

When it comes to the crown prince, Shan Shen thinks so.

These gentlemen are together, and no one of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can toss.

Thinking like this, he immediately looked at Yu Chengan and the others.

"Don't worry," Shan Shen finished talking to Yu Chengan, and then asked the chief steward, "What is the process, tell me carefully." ”

Before the chief steward could speak, the children on the side started to say a word.

Shan Shen's ears were buzzing when he heard it, but he finally figured things out, took the white-feathered chicken sent by the steward, pinched its neck and looked at it, and then threw it to the servant.

He was carrying a chicken with a sneering face.

He has been in the industry for decades, and he has seen a lot of all kinds of murders, and he has seen all kinds of tragic things, and he has also tested pigs, dogs, chickens and ducks, but those are all tested at the same time when investigating the murder case and the scene, when did he test the beast as the protagonist?

Rao was like this, but he still stiffened his face and asked, "What about the stone?" Take a look at it too. ”

A steward went to fetch it, and Shan Shen took advantage of this time to ask again: "Someone saw that the stone flew from the side of the small building, so the building was surrounded?" ”

"That's right, that's right!"

"Yu Gongzi was watching cockfighting upstairs at the time, and when he came down, he found that he couldn't get out?"

Yu Chengan said: "The chicken is dead and no longer fighting, of course I want to leave, but they all say that I am a murderer." ”

"You're not, you're in a hurry?"

"Who doesn't know that the last thing people like us lack is idle work!"

"You love to watch the excitement so much, don't you want to know to kill chickens?"

For a while, the gossip began to argue again.

Shan Shen listened twice, and then asked the chief steward: "Did you start early today?" Not the same as the original arrangement? ”

"There's a distinguished guest coming," said the chief steward, "and it's not good to make the distinguished guest wait, so I'll open first." ”

When the others on the side heard this, they also turned their heads and asked, "What distinguished guest?" ”

"What a guest? So that you don't even dare to report to the official? ”

Yu Chengan was also curious.

He was born in the Hou Mansion, his ancestors have military merits, he is already very famous when he walks in Beijing, of course, the most important thing in the capital is the noble hairpin, the emperor's relatives and relatives, Yu Chengan is not so arrogant that he thinks he can walk sideways.

Hearing the words at this moment, I couldn't help but look upstairs.

Who can make the generals so careful?

It is said that he really likes cockfighting, and he often comes to the general's square to join in the fun, he knows everything, isn't it an acquaintance today?

The chief steward didn't answer publicly, but only approached Shan Shen: "My lord, borrow an ear." ”

Shan Shen leaned sideways and moved closer.

"I don't know the specific identity, but the one who follows me must be an internal attendant, and there is an internal attendant accompanying him when he goes out, where can the little ones not hold it?"

The master couldn't hear it, but saw their eyes widen suddenly.

Then, Master Shan and the chief steward were busy asking, "How old are you?" What does it look like? You said he came in the morning? ”

Don't blame him for panicking, where can he not panic!

Before noon, the saint summoned the prince, but he couldn't find it.

Gonggong Cao was so anxious that he couldn't do it, he could think of everything he could think of, such as the East Palace and the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites, but he was stunned that there was no trace of His Royal Highness, and he went to the Fuguo Mansion, but His Royal Highness had already left.

There was no way, Gong Cao sent someone to ask in the Shuntian Mansion, wanting to know if Shan Shen had the whereabouts of His Royal Highness.

Shan Shen didn't know, and he guessed with the master, Fu Cheng and others where His Royal Highness might have gone to eat, until he heard the chief steward mention it......

Don't your Highness actually come to the General's Workshop, right?

Does it count if you come, and you are still surrounded in a small building?

They came to investigate a chicken killing case, and they took His Highness back by the way?

How can Shuntianfu be virtuous? How can he be?! Unlucky! He worships the Bodhisattva on the first day of the first month and kowtows less?

Shan Shen was still praying not to be so unlucky all the way to the end of the year, and extinguished the last bit of hope in his heart in the words of the chief steward, so he could only wipe his face heavily.

"I don't have a crown, I look seventeen or eighteen years old, half a head taller than the youngest, and I look good."

"The chamberlain is also young, not tall, and looks lively."

Shan Shen covered his eyes with his palm.

This is His Royal Highness and Eunuch Wang, you can't be wrong.

He looked at his master again, and said in his heart, "It's really a crow's mouth."

The master was inexplicably looked at by Master Shan, so he could only bend his mouth and smile, the etiquette was very good, but it was embarrassing.

Shan Shen took a deep breath and calmed down his emotions: "The yamen people are here, let the guests disperse, don't surround it, it's crowded like a vegetable market, I know it's to watch cockfighting, and if I don't know, I should buy chickens for the New Year, one by one, there is no shortage of money and no lack of meat, and it looks like eating this bite all year round!" ”

The chief steward was stunned for a moment, and responded repeatedly.

As soon as he spoke, Shan Shen's emotions, which had not stabilized much, came up again: "I'll take someone up to have a look, I heard that the upstairs is full?" I'm going to see who's so good at the right thing to knock down a chicken with one stone. The neck can be so accurate, and I am still short of people in the guillotine of Shuntianfu! ”

As for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Shan Shen never thought that His Royal Highness could have that hand.

The stewards and guards came up to persuade the guests to disperse, but some of them were reluctant to leave, shouting this and that.

Shan Shen listened and scolded the "Eight Lambs of the King" in his heart, thinking of the troubles of the recent days, thinking of the abnormal attitude of the Holy Lord in the Jinluan Palace, and thinking of the troubles that there would be in the morning tomorrow......

Why is it only Shuntianfu who is unlucky?

If you want to join in the fun, then go to the front row of the palace together, he wants to see who has the hardest waist pole and eats the biggest fruit!

"Don't go, don't go!" Shan Shen scolded, "If you are fat and the old man in the family is confident, you can continue to surround you, wait for me to go to Shuntianfu for a turn, and let the family come to pick up people!" ”

As soon as the voice fell, after a moment of silence, there was a commotion again.

Except for the fact that only money and no power did not dare to provoke the yamen, they left with the stewards, and those who stayed were giggling.

It is certainly disgraceful to let the elders go to Shuntian Mansion to lead people, but today it is just to watch the excitement, and there is no trouble, and then the law is not to blame the public, what about so many people, what are you afraid of?

Shan Shen ignored them anymore, and let the chief steward lead him into the small building and go up the steps.

Yu Chengan was also regarded as a suspect by others, where would he leave, he simply followed Shan Shen, wanting to see what kind of distinguished guest was upstairs.

In order to have a good view, Xiaolou surrounds the ring below, which is a small semi-circular arc, with a total of sixteen private rooms, all of which are full.

"Yu Gongzi is in the seventh room," the chief steward introduced, "and the distinguished guest is in the ninth room." ”

Shan Shen asked, "Who is the eighth room?" ”

"The three sons and girls of the Han family." The Grand Steward.

surnamed Han, can be arranged in the central rooms, Shan Shen guessed at once, the concubine of the eldest princess of Derong, and the junior of Han Zhaoqing's family.

There are also different types, and in Shan Shen's eyes, the children of the Han family are good.

I haven't done much aggressive hard work, but I haven't done any troublesome bastard things.

If all the gentlemen were like the Han family, Shuntianfu would be able to have a lot less inexplicable trouble.

Shan Shen didn't go to see Li Shao first, and took someone to walk through the other private rooms, and got a bunch of similar testimonies.

"Just come to see a cockfight, who knew that something like this happened, surrounded downstairs, and I couldn't leave if I wanted to."

"Lord Shan, look at us like we can hit a chicken with one stone?"

"Hurry up and find the murderer, what else will happen later?"

"How much money is a chicken? No, I'm out, I didn't kill chickens, I'm just troublesome, and it's a big fart! ”

Shan Shen was so angry that he slapped the man on the arm.

Big of a fart?

This fart can collapse a hole in the roof of tomorrow's Jinluan Palace, do you say it's a big deal?

Finally, Shan Shen knocked on the door of the ninth room: "Xiaguan Shuntianfu Shan Shen, is His Highness inside?" ”

The archsteward was puzzled: Your Highness?

Yu Chengan's eyes widened: Your Highness!

The door opened from the inside, Wang Gouzi smiled at Shan Shen, full of embarrassment, and let Li Shaolai, who was exposed inside, let go of his body.

Shan Shen went in and saluted Li Shao: "Your Highness, why are you here?" ”

Facing the smell of wine, Shan Shen glanced at the table, and saw that there were several wine cups, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart.

It's not a good deal, and after eating so much wine, it's even worse!

Li Shao said: "I can't be here? ”

Instead of going around in circles when he was drunk, Shan Shen asked again: "Do you see where the stone came from?" ”

"No," Li Shao was impatient, "I was watching the excitement, and I was disturbed!" A chicken is also worth a trip to you, Shuntianfu is so idle? ”

Shan Shen: ......

Up and down the house, the busiest thing is all your Royal Highness!

Of course, he would not dare to shout these words to the prince.

Li Shao asked the chief steward: "Don't fight today, right?" Then I'll go back to the palace. ”

The chief steward was very nervous.

There are not many people in Manjing City who can be called His Royal Highness, not to mention that there are only those who want to "return to the palace".

He resignedly said: "Congratulations, congratulations to Your Highness......"

Shan Shen subconsciously wanted to stop it.

Wang Gouzi saw it in his eyes and said busily: "Lord Shan, look, Your Highness has been out for a day, it's time to go back, or ...... ask."

Outside, he didn't say a word "saintly", but only stretched out his finger and pointed to the sky.

Shan Shen smiled angrily: "I asked at noon!" I can't find it everywhere, so I came to Shuntianfu to ask! ”

Wang Gouzi breathed tightly, and sure enough, he didn't hide it, and he didn't know how to explain it!

As soon as Li Shao heard this, he was halfway awake and was in a hurry to leave.

Seeing that Shan Shen didn't retreat, he asked, "Do you still want to take me back to Shuntian Mansion?" Am I unable to walk today? ”

Thinking about his own territory, Shan Shen took a step back and escorted Li Shao down.

Wang Gouzi helped Li Shao, anxious and cautious, afraid that he would not be stable on the stairs.

Li Shao walked to the door of the small building and saw the circle of people outside, his face became more and more ugly: "All retreat." ”

Not all of those children had seen Li Shao, but some of them recognized it, and they probably noticed that the atmosphere was wrong, and they all withdrew from the same way.

Li Shao took Wang Gouzi and left directly.

Shan Shen didn't leave.

He first asked Yu Chengan: "Is it lively and beautiful?" ”

Yu Chengan sneered.

Shan Shen raised his voice again and said to the crowd: "Are the guests expensive enough?" Come and come, remember all the names and origins, don't even think about slipping away. There are not so many people standing in the small station of Shuntianfu Temple, so come with me, go to stand on the square outside the palace, and let you old man come to lead people! ”

Some people are panicked, some people are afraid, and some people are not afraid of boiling water.

"Master Shan, who is the murderer?"

How does Shan Shen know what murderer?

The upstairs one by one, no one has that kind of ability.

After thinking about it, it should be another move towards the prince, and the person who did it had already run away.

As a person in the bureau, I have been unlucky for half a month, and I am really sorry for not looking for a group of backs today, getting up early every day and sleeping in the dark!

One by one, don't even think about running!

Not long after, outside the general's square, the people who watched the excitement first saw a carriage leave, but they did not know the identity of the people on the car, and after a while, a large group of people came out.

The servants surrounded a group of richly dressed noble sons, as if they were driving a flock of sheep, and the shepherd of Lord Shan was violent.

Everyone involuntarily followed, pointing and muttering all the way, until they were getting closer and closer to the palace, they didn't dare to follow, but they didn't leave, looking at these people lining up in the square in front of the palace. (End of chapter)
