Chapter 381 Don’t even think about running away(1/2)
Ordinarily, if something like a dead chicken doesn't require labor alone, it would be polite for the magistrate to handle it.
But Jiangjunfang is full of dandy boys, and he can't stand up to his family, who are very capable. If there is any situation, even Shan Shen has to keep a smile on his face, and the others can't take advantage of them.
Shan Shen was already very busy with the affairs of His Highness the Crown Prince. Suddenly someone came to report to the official, and the report was about Jiangjunfang, one big and two big.
When I heard that it was during a cockfight, someone secretly hurt the chicken with a stone and beat it to death. The master next to him spurted out a mouthful of water, and Shan Shen shook his head in disgust.
But only Master Shan knows whether he dislikes the master, the chicken, or the dandy in Jiangjunfang.
The group of people arrived outside Jiangjunfang.
When the officials arrived, the people who gathered outside the gate to watch the excitement dispersed and made way for them.
As soon as Shan Shen stepped in, the chief steward came out to welcome him.
"Sir Shan," he rubbed his hands and smiled, "I have caused trouble for you and the policeman."
Shan Shen chuckled.
It's really troublesome.
When he walked all the way to the ring, Shan Shen's eyes jumped when he saw a group of well-dressed disciples gathered around the small building.
I couldn't tell what was going on, but I just felt "something bad".
His eyes flashed across the faces with different expressions, and as expected, many of them were old friends whom he had dealt with before.
To say that he has committed any serious crimes, he has not actually done so. To say that he has followed the rules, he is not far behind. He is just a little bastard who has been drunk and idle since he was a child.
One of them is the grandson of Baoanhou, whose surname is Yu and his given name is Cheng'an. He is not as good as Weiguan, and he is good at both civil and military affairs.
Previously, he had an argument with another group of drunkards because he had eaten too much. The two parties were drunk and had a fight. Yu Chengan's drunken hands were not serious. He broke one person's arm and broke another person's front tooth. The quarrel reached Shuntian Mansion, and finally the security guard
The Hou Mansion paid a lot of money to settle the matter.
At this time, Yu Chengan was surrounded by people.
Seeing Shan Shen, he quickly raised his voice and shouted: "Master Shan, Master Shan! They have all wronged me. They must say that I killed the chicken. Come and make the decision for me."
Shan Shen:……
Headache.
This kind of mess is more troublesome if there is a murderer than if there is no murderer.
Seeing Mr. Shan frowning, the master comforted in a low voice: "The dead one is just a chicken. At least Mr. Yu is a rich man. Please ask and check. If it is really him, let him pay for it. Before nightfall today
It will definitely be done and we won’t cause trouble the next day.”
Shan Shen touched his beard and was comforted, although not much.
The master rolled his eyes and said again: "No matter what, it is simpler than the prince's things."
When it comes to the prince, Shan Shen takes it seriously.
These dandies are all together, and none of them, the Crown Prince, can mess with them.
Thinking like this, he immediately became more pleased with Yu Chengan and others.
"Don't worry," Shan Shen said to Yu Cheng'an, then asked the manager, "What is the process? Please explain it carefully."
Before the chief steward opened his mouth, the disciples beside him started talking to each other.
Shan Shen's ears were buzzing, but he finally understood everything. He took the white-feathered chicken brought by the steward, pinched its neck and looked through it, then threw it to Zuo Zuo.
Wu Zuo was carrying the chicken with a sly look on his face.
He has been in the industry for decades and has seen many murder cases. He has seen all kinds of horrors. He has also examined pigs, dogs, chickens and ducks. However, these were all examined at the scene when investigating murder cases. When did he examine the scene again?
Have you ever tried a beast as the protagonist?
Despite this, he still put on a straight face and asked, "Where's the stone? Let's take a look at it too."
A steward went to get it, and Shan Shen took advantage of this moment to ask again: "Someone saw the stone flying from this side of the small building, so they surrounded the building?"
"That's right, that's right!"
"Master Yu was watching the cockfight upstairs. When he came down, he found that he couldn't get out?"
Yu Chengan said: "The chicken is dead and there is no more fighting. Of course I want to leave, but they all say that I am the murderer."
"No, are you in a hurry to leave?"
"Who doesn't know that the most indispensable thing for people like us is leisure time!"
"You love watching the fun so much, don't you want to know about killing chickens?"
For a while, everyone was arguing again.
Shan Shen listened and then asked the manager: "It started early today? Is it different from the original arrangement?"
"We have a distinguished guest coming," the chief steward said hurriedly. "It's not good to keep the distinguished guest waiting for nothing, so I'll leave first."
After hearing this, other people on the side also turned around and asked, "Who are you?"
"How expensive are your guests? That you don't even dare to report to the official?"
Yu Chengan is also curious.
He was born in a prince's palace, and his ancestors had military exploits. He was already very prestigious when walking in the capital. Of course, the most important thing in the capital was the hairpins of nobles and royal relatives. Yu Cheng'an was not so arrogant as to think that he could walk sideways.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but raise his head and look upstairs.
Who can make Jiangjunfang so careful?
It is said that he really likes cockfighting and often comes to Jiangjunfang to join in the fun. He knows all the powerful people. Could it be that he is an acquaintance today?
The chief steward did not answer publicly, but came to Shan Shen and said, "Sir, I can lend you an ear."
Shan Shen leaned closer and moved closer.
"I don't know the specific identity, but the person following you must be a chamberlain. When you go out, a chamberlain will accompany you. How can you not support me?"
The master couldn't hear it, but saw their Master Shan's eyes widening suddenly.
Then, Mr. Shan and the chief steward hurriedly asked: "How old is he? What does he look like? You said he came in the morning?"
Don’t blame him for panicking, how could he not panic!
Before noon, the Holy Father summoned the prince, but he could not be found.
Eunuch Cao was so anxious that he searched all the places he could think of such as the East Palace and the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites, but there was no sign of His Highness. He even went to the Duke Fuguo's Mansion, but His Highness had already left.
There was no other way, so Eunuch Cao sent people to Shuntian Mansion to ask if Shan Shen knew the whereabouts of His Highness.
Shan Shen didn't know for sure, and he, Master, Fucheng and others had guessed where His Highness might have gone to have a drink, until he heard the big steward mention it...
Didn't His Highness actually come to Jiangjunfang?
It doesn't matter that you're here, but you're still surrounded in a small building?
They came to investigate a chicken killing case and took His Highness back as well?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What kind of virtue is there in Shuntian Mansion? What kind of virtue is there?! What a bad luck! He kowtowed to the Bodhisattva on the first day of the first lunar month and kowtowed too little?
Shan Shen was still praying that he would not be so unlucky until the end of the year, but the last bit of hope in his heart was extinguished by the big steward's words, and he could only wipe his face heavily.
"It doesn't reach the height of the crown. She looks about seventeen or eighteen years old. She is half a head taller than the younger one. She looks good."
"The chamberlain is also young, not tall, and looks very agile."
Shan Shen covered his eyes with his palms.
These are His Highness and Eunuch Wang, there is no mistaking them.
He looked at the master again and said to himself, "What a crow's mouth."
The master was puzzled by what he saw. He could only curl his mouth and smile. It was very polite, but it was embarrassing.
Shan Shen took a deep breath and calmed down: "The yamen people are here, let the guests disperse. Stop crowding around. It's like a vegetable market. If you know you are watching a cockfight, if you don't know, you still want to buy a chicken."
It’s the New Year, and everyone is not short of money or meat, as if they only eat this one thing all year round!”
The chief steward was stunned for a moment and then responded.
Once he spoke, Shan Shen's unsteady mood rose again: "I'll take people up to take a look. I heard that the upstairs is full? I want to see who has such good accuracy. He can hit a stone with one stone.
A chicken can hit his neck with such accuracy, I still need someone to have the guillotine in Shuntian Mansion!"
As for His Highness the Crown Prince, Shan Shen never thought that His Highness could have such skills.
The stewards and guards came up to persuade the guests to leave, but some of them were unwilling to leave, shouting this and that.
Shan Shen could not help but curse the "bastard" in his heart. He thought of the recent troubles, the abnormal attitude of the Holy Emperor in the Jinluan Palace, and the troubles that would come in the morning tomorrow...
Why is it that only Shuntian Mansion is unlucky?
There are so many people who want to join in the fun, so let's go to the imperial court and stand in line together. He wants to see who has the toughest waist and can eat the biggest fruit!
"Don't leave, don't leave at all!" Shan Shen scolded, "You are a coward. If the old man in the family is confident, you can continue to surround me. I'll follow you all to Shuntian Mansion later and let the family pick you up!"
"
As soon as the words fell, there was a moment of silence, and then there was a commotion again.
To be continued...
