Chapter two hundred and eleven nervousness
Ouyang looked up, and Zhao Yu felt a little regretful when he saw his expression. He didn't laugh at him. He threw the problem that he couldn't even make up for. Zhao Yu felt that he was a bit too much. After all, no matter which side Ouyang supports, he would offend the other side. Ouyang has always regarded himself as a neutral party. Ouyang thought for a while and said, "When you go back to your Majesty, there is a saying among the folks that say that mothers are right, and mothers are right. In fact, what everyone says makes sense. Weichen emotionally supports those soldiers to stay in office, but he also feels that they are not very ruling to stay in office, so it is not convenient to express their opinions. However, Weichen has a proposal."
"What proposal?" Zhao Yu also felt relieved and joked: "Will everyone win and listen to whoever wins to play mahjong?"
"Haha" all the ministers agreed to express their understanding of Zhao Yu's humor. No matter what, the atmosphere also eased a little.
Ouyang ignored such vulgar humor and said, "There is a village called Umeda Township under Weichen ruled by Weichen. There is a man named Zhang in the village. Because his father ignored his sick mother by gambling, he beat his father in anger. Baojia, the patriarch and others didn't know how to deal with it. If this person is unfilial, he would have nothing to say to his mother. He said that this person is filial and beat his father again. It is difficult for them to decide the right and wrong. He reported to the yamen. The yamen wanted to deal with this person according to the law, but there were many Umeda people pleading for mercy, which was really difficult to make a conclusion. Finally, Weichen was annoyed and waved his sleeves and said, "You Zhang family go back to vote. If there are many people who agree to the law, then the law will be done. If there are many people who agree to the law, then the law will be done. If there are many people who agree to the law, then the law will be done."
"In the end, he must be innocent?"
Ouyang shook his head and said, "I am guilty and the state sentenced to two years of hard labor. Because many Zhang family members think that no matter what is it, it is no longer reasonable. The son beats his father and thunderstorms the sky. I thought, since even Your Majesty can't make a conclusion, it's better to let the court officials vote, and if there are too many people who agree, they will make a decision, and if there are too many people who oppose it, they will be cut off. I don't know what to do." Ouyang nodded and made a gesture in his hand.
A minister made a clear statement: "Your Majesty, I did not occupy the people of the Song Dynasty, so the hall was smaller. Therefore, Taizu changed the rules of the fifth-rank early dynasty to the fourth-rank, and the fifth-rank only once a month. But if you want to vote, you also need to invite the fifth-rank officials to participate to show that my Taizu left a message and the scholars and officials to govern the Song Dynasty's fairness."
"Okay," Zhao Yu nodded: "Three days later, the morning court will be held. All officials in Beijing, including 24 departments, 3 provinces, six ministries, and officials above the fifth rank in Beijing must participate." Zhao Yu was very satisfied with Ouyang's proposal. No one had any objection to the voting, and no one could blame him. Everyone was happy to be able to solve the matter so easily. Zhao Yu was not in the mood to care whether those 20 or more people could be assigned official positions. Ouyang suggested and reminded Zhao Yu that many things were actually right and wrong, which means that any decision was right or wrong, which eventually led to the delay of the matter for a long time. If all these broken things were taken out to vote and vote, and the minority obeyed the majority, wouldn't it be simple?
Ouyang didn't expect Zhao Yu to be so straightforward. You should know that this was a disguised decision to divert the emperor's power. No one likes tedious things. Although the court meeting is a major national event, there are the most quarrels, and there are all big and small things. In the future, the events determined by voting will inevitably increase greatly. Until the end, Zhao Yu relied on such a model, or the court officials liked this model very much... However, from this point of view, Zhao Yu was not a scheming person of cunning level, and at most it might be a bit deep.
The court meeting ended like this. All officials came out of water, and Ouyang walked in the middle, either the new school or the old school. He did not visit anyone outside the palace, but went directly to Yuelai Inn, walked to Tianzifang and knocked on the door. Ouyang went in. There was only Zhan Ming inside.
Zhan Ming said: "The imperial guards are stationed on all sides of Tokyo, and about 20,000 are stationed in the city. Xiao Cui is in the Chunfeng Pavilion near the imperial guards' garrison in the city. According to my cousin, Jin San is a regular visitor here, but he never calls out Xiao Cui's cards. However, he has appeared in Xiao Cui's residence not far away."
Ouyang asked in confusion: "Why don't you have a place to live in a passionate girl?" He also had to rent a house by himself.
"Sir, Xiao Cui is a very infamous aggression girl. Even the maids of the signatures are not as good as those of the signatures. Chunfeng Pavilion certainly does not arrange accommodation. However, the humble official is strange. She can be a prostitute, but she has to pay money to Chunfeng Pavilion to pick up customers every month, but she can't receive any hospitality. No matter what purpose it is, it seems that it doesn't make sense."
Ouyang shook his head: "Private prostitution is a circle, there is no circle of contact with each other. But Chunfeng Pavilion is different. You also know that the lower class is the courtyard and the upper class is the cabinet. I am afraid that they are a bit like a person who can enter and exit these places. As long as she is in this circle for a day... no, is this guy a spy?"
"What?"
"Spy," Ouyang frowned and said, "Those passionate girls who can receive distinguished guests will definitely not be cautious about her. They usually chat with bed as gossip... Zhan Ming, does this Xiao Cui also play as a maid when she has no guests? Is her relationship with her sisters good?"
"It's true that Xiao Cui works hard and does everything as long as the passionate girls give instructions. She can't afford to sell the card in Chunfeng Pavilion according to her conditions, but those passionate girls will help her, often introduce customers to her attentively, and even dress her up with her own rouge and powder."
"It seems that this person has no doubt about his identity. But who did she be ordered?"
Zhan Ming shook his head: "I have reported it to the adults before. There is nothing suspicious about Jin San's identity. There is indeed this person in Qizhou, and he is very good at playing with swords. I think he and Xiao Cui should not be just a simple fellow countryman, but at least they are also a co-conspirator."
Speaking of this, the road suddenly became noisy. Ouyang opened the window and saw that it was the military officers in Kaifeng Mansion. Ouyang nodded, Zhan Ming went out to find the waiter who was watching the fun outside and asked a few questions, then returned to the room and closed the door: "Not good."
“What’s the situation?”
"The life case of Chunfeng Pavilion, a house not far away caught fire."
"Ke" Ouyang was furious and cursed, but immediately calmed down: "No, I asked Zhang San to send you a letter ten days ago. You arrived in Tokyo five days ago. I completely believe in your ability to investigate secretly, but why would Xiao Cui be silenced?"
Zhan Ming reminded: "Sir, I don't know who the deceased is."
Ouyang ignored it and continued to analyze: "Someone must know that you left Shangjing. There are three places you usually go to, one is the yamen, the other is the military factory, and the other is the home. In other words, there must be spies in these three places. Zhan Ming, where did you leave from when you came to Tokyo?"
"It was late at night when I received the letter from the adults. After breakfast the next day, I went to the yamen to tell me to go to the countryside, and then inspected the military factory and left the military factory."
Ouyang asked: "Do you remember there is a Jin Kingdom spy in Xiang Village near the military factory that we have always maintained and refused to arrest?"
"This... won't be there." Zhan Ming shook his head: "I didn't tell anyone about the itinerary. How did he know that I was going to Tokyo, not to the countryside."
"You brought dry food?"
Zhan Ming realized that he was traveling far away from this point of view. After all, he went to the countryside quickly and was entertained. But Zhan Ming shook his head: "No, sir, I rode a fast horse and couldn't follow me. As soon as I entered Tokyo, I pretended to be a woodcutter to investigate secretly. If the lord said that, the spy notified Tokyo faster than my horse to check my whereabouts? Or... sir, could it be that Zhang San leaked the content of the letter? They were waiting in Tokyo, following me, and when they saw me visiting Xiao Cui, they silenced them?"
"Then I'll do it a few days earlier." Ouyang asked: "Do you remember, there are some people in the Shen Zi case who came one day earlier than I expected? And only Zhang San, you, Huilan..."
Zhan Ming added: "It is possible that people from Zhan Mansion can also meet Zhang San back to the city."
Ouyang Nu: "The more I say, the less I say, the more you say."
Zhan Ming smiled and said, "What the adults said must be considered for everything possible."
"Okay, go and see the scene and can you find some clues."
"yes"
Ouyang thought he was approaching the truth, but after thinking about it, Zhan Ming made a point. Zhang San, who went to the northwest with him, suddenly returned to the city, which would inevitably cause doubts when he saw people. Not to mention doubts from those who were originally interested. If he left the city early the next morning and reported to the owner of Tokyo, Zhan Ming who later arrived in Tokyo would appear, and then follow him to find his purpose and silence him. Ouyang had a headache, and this might involve more people. He had to open the city gate late at night, so it would be impossible not to disturb others.
Next door to Mary, Ouyang was very angry. There was no criminal with such a high IQ. Either he was too lucky or he was almost a monster. Modern cases are not so difficult, and the murderer was ahead step by step. Well, even if there is Infernal Affairs, how could only a few insiders do Infernal Affairs?
Ouyang was still cursing this era when the crime level was so high, Zhan Ming came back with a strange expression. Then he didn't look at Ouyang's face and clasped his fists and said, "Sir."
“What’s the situation?”
"Yeah..." Zhan Ming organized the language for a long time before saying: "The deceased is the son of the Minister of War."
Ouyang: “…”
"The cause of death is the wind at the moment." It is also known as having death. It is usually caused by stimulation of drugs, which eventually leads to death such as heart disease.
Ouyang: “…”
"The reason for the houses to catch fire is to marry a daughter and firecrackers ignite the torch."
Ouyang sorted out his head: "It's not too late, I'll go back to the inn first."
Zhan Ming suddenly became respectful: "Sir, walk slowly."
"Cough" Ouyang nodded: "I'll talk about it tomorrow."
"Yes" Zhan Ming became even more respectful.
It's so shameless. Recently, it seems that he is a little nervous, but Ouyang still left Yuelai Inn without blushing. He said disdainfully: Not to mention Zhan Ming, even if all the yamen runners come, I am as comfortable as I am.
