Chapter 580: Turtle Slave (two chapters in one)(1/2)
I wish you someone to inquire about Zhou Hong.
Zhou Hong was a bandit, and his wife was a businesswoman. It is said that she was in poor health and never went out, but Zhou Hong's official position was exchanged for two mines.
Although the mine was handed over, the thin camel was bigger than a horse, and Zhou Hong's family background was very thick.
Generally speaking, it is difficult for Zhou Hong to further his career in his career. However, although Zhou Hong's future is slim, his children's future is very good.
Needless to say, his son Zhou Yun is the companion of the emperor's eldest grandson; his daughter Zhou Wanqian betrothed to Ouyang Wentao.
Although the Ouyang family declined, Ouyang Wentao was raised by Duke Ding since childhood. He heard that he had already received the mission of Jinwu Guard.
After weighing the pros and cons of many parties, I believe that this marriage is feasible.
I wish that the adults will pamper their younger daughter and must first obtain their daughter's consent.
Therefore, Mr. Zhu once took his daughter to stay outside Lihuashan Academy and met Zhou Yun.
Not only did they look at Zhou Yun, but they also read the readings of Huang Changsun.
Although Zhou Yun has not yet grown up, he has been practicing martial arts for many years and has a slender and strong figure, which is particularly conspicuous among the young teenagers.
Mr. Zhu and Miss Zhu San were very satisfied, especially Miss Zhu San. She clearly saw Zhou Yun and Emperor Changsun’s arm-shouldered and intimate.
Lord Zhu said: "This kind of friendship between people and young is the most rare. Even if you are a king or a minister in the future, it will be different from other kings and ministers."
Just like the prince and Lu Jinchao, the eldest prince.
Another child from this generation of the Lu family was the companion to the emperor and grandson.
Lord Zhu was envious. He was not able to send his children from the family to Huang Changsun as his companionship, but he could make Huang Changsun’s companionship study to Zhu’s family as his son-in-law.
As for Miss Zhu San, perhaps because she had seen too many gentle and pale young men. When she saw Zhou Yun who was full of vitality like the rising sun, Miss Zhu San suddenly felt her eyes lit up. In addition, her father had this intention, Miss Zhu San secretly agreed.
After hearing his daughter's crying, Mrs. Zhu looked at her niece with complaint.
My daughter has always been well-behaved and sensible, so how could she do stupid things that would collide with Princess Rui?
This was definitely encouraged by my niece.
Back then, she was the most outstanding sister in the family, and she had to pick and choose when discussing marriage. After a while, she reached twenty years old and had to marry into the Zhu family to fill in the house.
Her good sister often laughed at her behind her back.
Now she is a lady, but her sister is still a juren.
In the past, Mrs. Zhu enjoyed the feeling of being envied by her sisters but having to flatter her, but now she is angry. She has no choice but to harm her daughter in secret.
Mrs. Zhu remained calm and comforted her daughter while asking her to go out for information.
The news came back soon. The person who went to Prince Rui’s mansion yesterday was not an ordinary imperial physician, but a judge in the Jiangyuan!
If I just went to the Ping'an meridian, how could I use the Jiangyuan verdict?
Mrs. Zhu had to pay attention to Prince Rui's Mansion, and felt that it was not enough to pay attention to Prince Rui's Mansion. She also sent people to watch it with Duke's Mansion and Qingping Lane.
Princess Rui has not left the Duke's Mansion for three consecutive days, but the Duke's wife has been to the Duke's Mansion.
The Duke's wife is also pregnant.
In fact, the reason why Yan Xuehuai did not leave Prince Rui's Mansion in these three days was because Wang Zhi died in the imperial prison. The real murderer behind him had not been arrested yet. Chai Yan was worried that Yan Xuehuai would go out, so he told her to stay in the mansion.
The person who poisoned Wang Zhi has been found, but strictly speaking, the only thing found is the corpse, not the living person.
This is not difficult to check. The people in the imperial prison that day checked all the people and found one of them. He had handed over the shift home and the body was also found at home.
Died from hanging beams.
It seems that he committed suicide, but the coroner found that the person was strangled to death and then hung on the beam of the house. The method of committing the crime was not clever, either in a hurry or not caring.
The deceased was not only an orphan, but also an adopted son of the family. He was able to work in the prison for Zhaozhu to take over his uncle's position. Although the prison officer in Zhaozhu was under Feiyuwei, his uncle's son was admitted to the scholar and wanted to continue the imperial examination in the future, but he gave this quota to his nephew, on the condition that half of his salary would be given to his uncle's son within ten years.
Therefore, the deceased's life was very difficult. He had not married at the age of 28 and lived alone in the old house left by his adoptive parents.
He has no friends and is not close to his uncle's house. He only goes to his uncle's house every month when he pays his salary to send money. He always leaves after giving up his money and never sits for too long.
Perhaps because he was too tight, he never drank tea and drinks with his friends in the prison, but he had a good reputation. That was because he was alone and had no concerns. As long as someone asked to change shifts, he would agree.
This time it was a shift change, and he shouldn't have been on duty.
Chai Yan remembered what Yan Xuehuai once said: He is another adopted son.
This person's life experience is the same as Yan Pei, Chen Datie, and Jiao brothers, and they are all adopted sons.
But he was a few years younger than those people, but his uncle said that when his younger brother and sister-in-law brought this child back from Shantang, the people in Shantang didn’t know how old the child was, and they didn’t know themselves. Many children didn’t know their age.
The child was thin and had not changed his teeth yet, so he was six years old when he was registered in the yamen.
This man had no wife, nor did he hear that he had a favorite woman. Chai Yan asked someone to take his portrait to Hongxiufang.
This investigation really found clues. A little maid from a family had seen this person.
Like other places, the little maids living in Hongxiufang knew each other. A little maid named Chunfang said that once she and A Xiang from Hongxiufang were hiding behind the house to share the snacks that guests enjoyed, they saw this man sneaking out from the back door of Hongxiufang.
A Xiang told Chunfang that this man had a good appearance as a genus. He was obviously wearing official boots, but he was very stingy. Every time he came to look for a genus, he would sneak in order to not pay.
Chunfang said that although the man was wearing ordinary clothes, he was wearing official boots, so she remembered that person.
There was no such person on the list of beautiful guests in the Feiyuwei who had previously mastered.
Chai Yan interrogated Man Chi Jiao again. Because they were all interrogated separately, the portrait was taken out and the little maid named A Xiang recognized it.
She served the girl Lulu. This man had come to find Lululu several times, but every time it was in the morning. At that time, the girls in the shop had not yet got up and their mother was still asleep. Therefore, he had been here several times but his mother didn't know.
Lulu also told her not to tell her mother.
Lulu said that she was a fellow villager with this person and had known each other since childhood.
A Xiang thought they were childhood sweethearts, but the man was too stingy and never gave her money, so A Xiang would complain to Chunfang.
Chai Yan interrogated the erotic belt again, but unexpectedly encountered trouble.
The egrets cried so hard that the pear blossoms were raining, saying that she had been sold to the dust since she was a child, and that she didn't know where her hometown and where her fellow villagers came from were all A Xiang who defiled her.
Chai Yan became more annoyed as he listened, so he handed the erotic belt to Han Feng.
Feiyuwei's methods have always been known for their sinister and viciousness.
The next day, the erpent confessed.
The egret was sold before she could remember it, and later it was sold into a big house with many children in that house, of all ages, and she was the youngest, and the person who later worked in the imperial prison was the older one.
At that time, the egret was called Twenty-One Sister, and the man was called Liulang.
Later, Liulang was taken away from the big mansion, but the Lulu lived there for another three years.
Three years later, she was sent to another place where there were many beautiful little girls like her.
She learned singing, dancing, music, chess, calligraphy and painting there. When the girls there grew up to thirteen years old, they would be sent to Pingcheng.
Four years ago, the erotic belt was also sent to Pingcheng, but before she arrived at Pingcheng, the person who brought her suddenly received a message asking them not to enter the city first.
That night, they lived in an inn outside the city, but until midnight, someone entered the Lulu's room. She knew that person, Jinwu, who was responsible for taking care of them when she was in the big yard.
Jin Wu said that the master had an order and asked her to go south to Beijing. The beautiful white lotus flowers in the Hongxiufang were buying girls.
It was not until he left the inn that Lulu learned that the person who brought her here was dead and was from Jin Wusha.
She finally realized that her master in the big yard was not the same person as her later master.
Later, the owner wanted to send her to Pingcheng, while the original owner sent Jinwu to take her to the capital.
On the way to Beijing, she suddenly had abdominal pain like a swelling. Jin Wu took out a pill and asked her to take it. Her stomach stopped hurting after she took the pill. At that time, she thought she had real abdominal pain, and what Jin Wu gave her was medicine to treat abdominal pain.
When they arrived in the capital, the emperor had ascended the throne, and the capital gradually returned to its previous prosperity, and the twenty-first lady also turned into a beautiful egret girl.
But the abdominal pain recurred. That day she was about to ask A Xiang to hire a doctor, but Liu Lang suddenly came.
Liulang calculated the time and sent her antidote.
It is indeed an antidote. She was poisoned, and this poison would attack every month. If there was no antidote, she would die of poison.
Lulu recalled that her first attack was on the way to the capital. It can be imagined that Jin Wu gave her this poison while she was not prepared.
Every time A Xiang saw Liulang coming, it was not Liulang coming to have a secret meeting with Lulu, but to send antidotes.
Liulang came once a month, except for the first time, but later he came here a few days in advance.
A few months ago, Wang Zhong and Wang Zhi also appeared in Hongxiufang. Lulu knew them. They were Dalang and Erlang in the big yard back then!
But the egret pretended not to know them, or even did their business.
Later, the turtle slave of Manchi stole the silver from the White Lotus, was discovered by the White Lotus and drove out.
Liulang asked Lulu to help introduce the current turtle slave to do things.
As for the portrait of Fusheng found in the turtle slave's house, Lulu said that she really didn't know what was going on.
Lulu also said that after she arrived in the capital, she received only the order she had received, which was recommended by the Turtle Slave. She had not said it before because it was poisonous in her body and she dared not say it, worried that Liulang would not give her the antidote.
Until now, neither Han Feng nor Chai Yan told Lu Yu that Liu Lang was dead.
Therefore, when Chai Yan interrogated Guinu again, he first told Liu Lang's death.
The turtle slave was stunned and cried loudly.
