Chapter 37: The Bai Family

Zhu Di looked at the blood-stained Ryukyu queen Eyo.

Seeing that she didn't care about it, she generally said how many people she had killed, and only then did she protect the two generals in the Jinyi Guard into the capital.

even used his queen's jade seal to send these two people to the emperor in time.

Zhu Di took a closer look at the stunning Queen Jiang Dai again, and turned to look at Fang Zhongjin who was standing on the side.

The two of them never had much eye contact, and if they weren't careful, they would really think that the two never knew each other.

But Zhu Di knew that he wanted to make such a big sacrifice to make such a noble and beautiful woman with beautiful appearance and not weak martial arts.

Then there is nothing else possible except "beloved".

Zhu Di laughed involuntarily, and looked Fang Zhongjin up and down.

Not to mention that this young man's appearance is indeed not bad, no wonder even the Queen of the Ryukyus has to fall for him.

He caught a glimpse of his son Zhu Gaoxu again, but his eyes were cold.

Because now even the stupidest person can see that Zhu Gaoxu is not giving up, and his face is pale, and his sweat is dripping with sweat, and he is clearly shouting: "I have a cat!"

Zhu Di sighed, these sons, he is still clear.

Then Zhu Di asked Fang Zhongjin: "These two people, are they indeed your Jinyiwei?"

Fang Zhongjin said respectfully: "These two people are indeed from the Jinyi Guard, and when they were sent to Fuzhou, the minister personally instructed them. ”

Zhu Di let out an "oh" and asked the two brocade guards: "Then what did you find in Fuzhou?"

These two brocade guards never dreamed that they would see the sky one day.

Among them, the one with a slightly higher rank lowered his head stiffly, and he didn't know whether he was excited or nervous, and said in a trembling voice: "The ministers and the other two went to Fuzhou to investigate the situation at the home of Lord Bai Suhang and Bai on the order of Lord Fang.

However, when the ministers and the others arrived in Fuzhou, they found that the Bai family had already been inappropriate. ”

Zhu Di was surprised "Oh?" and said, "Go on." ”

"Yes. The ministers found that the Bai family not only moved out of Fuzhou entirely, but also did not leave a single maid. It is also to sell all the ancestral homes and fields. Obviously, he never wanted to return to Fuzhou.

The minister asked the villagers in Fuzhou where the Bai family had relocated. But no one can explain it in detail.

It was only said that no one noticed when the Bai family left, and when everyone noticed, it was already time for the Bai family to entrust the Chinese to sell the property.

The minister also found the Chinese man at that time, and the Chinese man also said that he saw a subordinate with a face to handle these sales.

But because of the various accounts and documents of the next person, they are complete. There is also a recommendation from Mr. Bai who has pressed his fingerprints, so there is no suspicion. ”

Zhu Di nodded meaningfully and said, "That's indeed extremely suspicious." Zhongjin, what do you think?"

Fang Zhongjin didn't speak until this time: "After the minister found out that Bai Suhang might not be the person who attended the Tongsheng Examination back then, the first thing that came to mind was that the Bai family bought someone to take the exam for the sake of honoring the ancestors.

But the purpose of the substitute examination is always to make his son an official. Bai Suhang, the minister has also seen it. Although he is restrained, he still has talent.

Although the handprints he left behind were different from those of the children's examination, they were exactly the same as those of the township examination and the general examination.

Then the minister suspects that the Bai Suhang we know in front of us is actually the Bai family looking for someone to take the test. ”

Zhu Di nodded and motioned for him to continue.

The minister speculated that the Bai family was overjoyed when they learned that their son had won the children's birth test. They may have only hoped that their son would be admitted to the Juren Examination and get a meritorious life to be exempted from the field tax, but they knew that their son did not have such ability, so they asked someone to take the exam on their behalf.

It's just that even they didn't expect that the person who invited the substitute to take the test was so capable. actually passed all the way and came to His Majesty, and was even appointed as the champion by the emperor.

Such a thing is out of the control of the Bai family. Since the emperor has appointed the champion, no one who is involved in this will dare to say a word of nonsense.

Master Bai knew that it was not his own son who won the champion, but he could only knock out his teeth and swallow blood, and sent someone to Beijing with a large number of gifts to visit his 'son'. As for the real Bai Suhang, he can only remain incognito in this life, and there is no future for him. ”

Zhu Di's face was serious, and then he asked, "Even so, what does this have to do with Ryanburgh?"

Fang Zhongjin said: "Yichen guesses that although Bai Suhang we know has extremely high talent, he can't participate in the imperial examination in his own name. Then he may be a lowly scholar, or the son of a criminal official who was convicted and demoted to a lowly status. ”

When Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Fang Zhongjin. This young man was also implicated by Fang Xiaoru back then, so he was not able to embark on a career in office. It's just that by mistake, this young man actually appeared in front of Zhu Di again, and changed from a scholar to a world-class master of martial arts.

It's just that Fang Zhongjin didn't notice anything unusual, and continued: "Before the minister, Jin Yiwei had already thoroughly investigated all the people around Ruienbo.

Most of them are just ordinary people, and there is nothing suspicious about them. And the only one with a strange origin is the new champion Bai Suhang.

The minister followed this clue and asked Jinyiwei to go to Fuzhou to investigate. Now it seems that it is no coincidence that the Bai family moved away. Yes and no?"

His last words were to the two brocade guards.

The brocade guard who spoke earlier continued: "Exactly, the minister also thought that there must be something strange in it, so he continued to investigate. Until the minister found out that there was a piece of land in the mountain behind the Bai family's old house that was different from other places, and it had been turned over within a year or two.

The minister had the audacity to turn over the entire land, and there were twenty-seven corpses buried in it. Twelve were men and fifteen were women. and the number of the Bai family's masters and servants, men and women, are confirmed one by one.

And the minister's first examination of the corpse also coincided with the time when the Bai family disappeared. I think the Bai family was killed. ”

These words couldn't help but make Zhu Di shake, and even made Zhu Gaoxu's face pale, and he sat down in the chair and didn't know what to do.

Fang Zhongjin continued: "Master Bai brought gifts to the capital to deal with the nobles from all sides, but he has already recognized the fake Bai Suhang.

Under these circumstances, why were people killed all over the house? The following words are all speculations of the ministers.

Fake Bai Suhang has such a big secret hidden in his body, he doesn't dare to be known by anyone. But the paper couldn't hold the fire, but it was still known by someone with a heart.

Someone with a heart took advantage of this to kill the Bai family. and coerced Bai Suhang to get close to Ryan Bo for him and tricked him into taking poison.

After Bai Suhang learned that the Bai family was dead, he knew that someone with a heart had obtained evidence of his true identity, and then took action to erase all the people who stood in his way.

There are people with a heart, thoughtful, and vicious methods. Bai Suhang knew that he had no way but to surrender. ”
