Chapter 451: Shameless for Face

When Liu Jing saw the Cangshou Order, the Cangshou Order had been dead for a long time, his face was distorted, and it was obviously very painful when he died.

"Where's the work?"

"I've sent someone to invite me, and I'm sure I'll be able to come soon."

"What did he eat today?"

"The normal meals are all delivered by the jailers. I had already checked it just now, and there was no poison in the food, and the jailers were all summoned and detained in the next room. ”

"Send someone for interrogation." Liu Jingdao. And at this time, the servant also hurried over and began to examine the body.

Liu Jing waited for about half an hour, and finally completed the inspection and came to report.

"Shangguan, this person died of severe poison in his body, there were no injuries on his body before he died, there were no traces of struggle, it was not forced, it may have been secretly poisoned, or it may have committed suicide."

"Also, this man died for two hours."

"Two hours!" Liu Jing was slightly stunned, thought of something in an instant, and then hurriedly said, "Come on, go and see how the Cang Shouling family is doing?" ”

Two hours was before Liu Jing interrogated Zhao Pei. When he wanted to interrogate the whereabouts of the grain, someone killed the warehouse guard.

Soon about a quarter of an hour later, the guards hurriedly came back to report: "Shangguan, the whole family is gone!" ”

"Yes, yes!" Liu Jing laughed angrily and said, "These people are really bold! ”

Liu Jing originally felt that Handan ordered Zhao Pei to join forces with the heroes or nobles in Handan City, but now that Zhao Pei has been arrested, those people want to cut off all clues. As for the warrant, there is a high probability that he committed suicide, and the condition for his suicide should be that those people promised to protect the safety of his family.

After seeing this situation, Liu Jing immediately sent people to find the family of Cang Shouling, and at the same time began to investigate the nobles and heroes in the city. It's just that as an official of the capital, he has limited power in Handan City, and these local snakes do not openly contradict each other, but they begin to secretly arrange various obstacles.

Liu Jing was short of food in the city, and then personally went to the homes of these powerful and nobles, wanting these people to donate food.

These powerful, noble, and official families in the city received him warmly.

There are all kinds of delicacies on the table, around the hall, more than a dozen musicians are playing beautiful musical instruments, and in the center of the living room, there is a row of beautiful dancers dancing, Liu Jing is wearing a plain clothes, behind him are two guards and a child.

That little boy is none other than Zhang Goudan, who officially he saved on the road. The child has no parents, the disaster is serious, leaving here is a dead end, so Liu Jing left him by his side to be a scholar.

Zhang Goudan also has an official name, his name is Zhang Ji.

The sound of silk and bamboo in the living room was pleasant, everyone was dressed in gorgeous clothes, only Liu Jing and a few people were dressed simply, and even a little shabby, looking out of place.

Liu Jing didn't pay attention to this, he offered to borrow some food to help the victims, these people were silent for a while, but in the end they still donated a few hundred stones of food.

Then he continued to talk about the scriptures, saying that the great sage had recently commented on the Spring and Autumn Period, and that the great sage was preaching at the opening altar, or that there were some Confucian and Taoist classics.

Looking at those white-skinned and ruddy people wearing silk and satin, Zhang Ji was very inferior, looking at himself, his hands and feet were all calluses, cracked in many places, his skin was black and red, and he couldn't even understand the meaning of those people's words.

At this moment, a burst of fragrance came, and I saw a team of beautiful maids walking in and placing all kinds of food in front of everyone.

Smelling the sweetness, Zhang Ji took a sip curiously, then was stunned, and then quickly drank the bowl of porridge, and then tasted the meat soup next to him, and ate the meat soup in a few clicks.

After the banquet, Zhang Ji pulled Liu Jing's sleeve: "The head of the family, the head of the house, this porridge is delicious." ”

"It's sweet and glutinous, and it smells of milk, is this sugar!?"

"So that's what Daddy said about sugar?"

"And that meat soup, it's really delicious, it's the first time I've eaten it"

"If Daddy had eaten a bite, wouldn't he have died?"

"My mother would have been happy if she had known that I had eaten sugar and meat soup, but unfortunately my brother is gone, otherwise she would have tasted it."

Liu Jing, who had just borrowed 20,000 stone of grain from many nobles and powerful people, suddenly fell silent, and he looked back at the tall vermilion gate, on which there were a row of four lanterns, and there seemed to be a faint burst of laughter from the closed gate.

Liu Jing stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Ji's little head, and said with a smile: "Yes, everyone in the world will have food in the future!" ”

After speaking, he pulled Zhang Ji and left with the guards, and when he left, there was only a trace of perseverance left in his eyes.

Liu Jing came from an ordinary background, just a small landlord, and relied on the support of other people in the family to pass the school palace, and then walked step by step to today. He originally wanted to rely on his strength to lead his family to become a family of officials, or a noble and wealthy family, so he had a good relationship with noble officials.

At the same time, he also strictly followed the procedures and never made any mistakes, but what he saw today made him feel a breath in his heart and made him not vomit or be unhappy.

During this time, he saw too much folk suffering, he saw too many struggles to survive, he felt that he could accept it calmly, but today he found that he still couldn't do it!

Since you can't do it, then go with your heart!

Liu Jing returned to the government office, first wrote down the situation in Handan, and then called an attendant and asked him to send the book back to Luoyang. After completing these, the next day Liu Jing directly ordered that the embroidered clothes envoy invite all the nobles, heroes, and official families in the city to the government office, and then ordered the requisition of county soldiers, and cooperated with the three hundred forest guards in his hands to raid all the nobles, heroes, and official families.

Liu Jing locked up all these noble, heroic, and official families in the government office, and then Yu Linwei and the embroidered clothes envoy rushed into those high-ranking families with the soldiers of Handan County and rushed directly to the granary.

At the same time, these nobles, heroes, and official families were searched. The number of victims is still increasing, and three-quarters of the 300,000 stone grain has been used, and he has no time to play any more investigation games. Therefore, this method of flipping the table was directly adopted, and the army was sent to search these noble and powerful families.

How many of these noble and powerful families are clean? The people outside the city are about to starve to death, and the city is still singing and dancing, and the wealthy families are dancing and singing, and they are singing every night.

The waste of food and wine discarded every day can feed the poor people several times. Although there is no evidence, he knows that these people are related to the case of Handan granary, how bold ordinary officials dare to touch the grain that is often closed, only they dare.

Since he is shameless for his face, then don't blame him for doing it himself.
