Heavy snow fell continuously for several days, accompanied by cold winds, which instantly turned the capital city into a blanket of white. The heavy snow broke tree branches, crossed roof beams, and even crushed the unfinished warship being built by Yongchang Shipping Company.

This is a big joke.

After investigation, it was found that the damage to the ship was due to the use of iron nails with high copper content, which were easy to break and could not withstand the violent snow and cold wind. The mast fell down and damaged the hull. The mast was connected and fixed with iron nails. This batch of

The boats were jointly built by the Ministry of Industry and Yongchang, with a total of 40 boats. They were originally delivered for use in the spring, but at the end of the year, the craftsmen were working non-stop, even in strong winds and heavy snow. Ten of them were damaged, and these ten were exactly

Such inferior iron nails were used. These iron nails came from the "Desheng" iron nail workshop. At the same time, similar iron nails that had not yet been delivered were found in the workshop. Therefore, hundreds of craftsmen in the workshop were all arrested and jailed.

prison.

The warship is so important, and the responsibility must be investigated. The Ministry of Industry and Yongchang cannot escape the relationship. Yongchang found the workshop, and the inspector was also a Yongchang worker. He disappeared, which is quite interesting. The Ministry of Industry wants to blame Yongchang, Yongchang

It was extremely generous to quickly take action, and the blame was naturally placed on the "Desheng" workshop. This was a serious crime that was punishable by beheading. Hundreds of workers and hundreds of families cried out for injustice. They knelt at Yongchang Shipyard and asked for help, but Yongchang ignored them.

, and even notified the Yamen to violently drive away these family members, and even imprison them.

After Huaixiu learned the news, she rushed into Sheng Changsi's house. Unexpectedly, Zhuge Ming was also there. She was extremely anxious because the workshop belonged to Uncle Qian. Not only was his whole family arrested, but Xiaoren was also imprisoned.

"Yamen, Chief, I would like to apply for investigation of this case."

Sheng Lingrong frowned, "This case belongs to Dali Temple, and the six gates have no right to interfere."

Huaixiu said, "'Desheng' workshop has been operating in Beijing for more than ten years, and its reputation has always been very good. Being able to provide nails to Yongchang and the Ministry of Industry is a big plus for such a small workshop, but there is no profit. They

They would also accept such an order, not to mention it was a warship. For this reason, why would they do such a thing of destroying their own sign and losing their lives? There must be something fishy in this."

"Are you questioning Dali Temple's investigation?"

Huaixiu said, "I heard that the emperor is about to return to Beijing, the Ministry of Industry is eager to deliver missions, and Yongchang wants to shirk its responsibilities. Naturally, someone has to step in to take the blame..."

"Li Huaixiu!" Sheng Lingrong interrupted her.

"No defense, no defense." Zhuge Ming on the side chuckled, "Your idea is bold, yes, yes, but there are some things you know in your heart so don't say them out loud. Fortunately, we are all members of the same family."

"Yasi..." Sheng Lingrong looked at Zhuge Ming. Zhuge Ming raised his arms to stop him, and then said to Huai Xiu, "When you are a police officer, you must always rely on evidence. If there is no confirmation, big trouble will happen if you speak so openly.

."

Huaixiu lowered his eyes and saluted Zhuge Ming, "It was Huaixiu who was impulsive."

"Dali Temple has already taken responsibility for this matter. You also know the situation of Liumen, so you are not qualified. But... Hey, last time Jinyiwei arrested a merchant selling smuggled goods from hundreds of households, it seems that he confessed

What, I heard it was related to Yongchang, and then he was chased by assassins..."

Huaixiu understood immediately and said, "I'll do it now." After saying that, he quickly left the door.

"Yasi..." Sheng Lingrong was a little worried.

Zhuge Ming smiled and said, "After all, you have to be alone. You can't be restrained in everything to protect her. I think back then, you guys made a lot of troubles, wasn't it?

I beg you to go around wiping your butts, right?"

Sheng Lingrong smiled apologetically and recalled that when the four of them first arrived at Liumen, they were all loyal and graceful. At that time, Liumen was really prosperous. As long as Liumen was investigating the case, no one dared not cooperate, not even the Third Division.

To solve the case, they queued up to ask for help from Liumen. Liumen was the busiest yamen in the capital, but now it has become a nest of fanciers.

"By the way, there's a letter from Leng Yan." Zhuge Ming handed a letter to Sheng Lingrong, and Sheng Lingrong hesitated whether to accept it.

Zhuge Ming stroked his beard and said, "Do you want to see it? If you don't, I will take it away."

Sheng Lingrong hesitated for a moment, then took it over and started reading.

After a moment, "Ju Pei really has a problem."

"I'll let you look at the back."

"No more."

"The last sentence."

Sheng Lingrong muttered softly, "...the weather has turned colder, and I purchased the southwestern magic medicine, which is effective in treating Lingrong's old injuries. Please use it instead of thinking about it."

"Where is the medicine for me? You can take it yourself."

"Who wants his medicine?" Sheng Lingrong said.

"Don't pull me down." Zhuge Ming said as he walked out, "This brat only cares about you and doesn't bring anything to me. Tsk tsk, he's not a good boy."

Sheng Lingrong looked at the letter again, feeling indescribably complicated. Every time he wrote a letter, he would end it with a warning to her, but he never wrote to her because he knew she didn't like it. If he did, she would also

It's true that she can't read it. She and he made it clear many years ago that there is no possibility for them to do it again.

Huaixiu walked out of the six gates, and Chang'an and Jiang Ze naturally followed.

"Do you know what I'm going to do next?"

"I know." Chang'an said, "You have a younger brother in the 'Desheng' workshop. We are willing to help you."

Huaixiu looked at the two of them and said seriously, "This is just a private matter and has nothing to do with you."

Chang'an smiled and said, "Anyway, idle time is idle. Jiang Ze, what about you?"

Jiang Zedao, "Just remember this favor."

Chang'an stared at him, "How about you be so honest and say everything I want to say."

Seeing the three people leaving, Yuzhu was a step too late to catch up. Zhou Qingyue came to her side and chuckled.

"why are you laughing?"

Zhou Qingyue said, "I already have someone I like in my heart, didn't you see it?"

Yuzhu was startled and angry, and was about to draw his sword, but Zhou Qingyue pushed him back. Yuzhu said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense, otherwise, I will be rude to you."

Zhou Qingyue said with a cold eyebrow, "I'm just kindly reminding you, don't let your affection go to waste."

Huaixiu found the enemy's signature. Fortunately, he was only demoted and not dismissed. At this time, he was recovering from his injuries in the mansion.

"You want to investigate my assassination?" Qiu Zhuan was particularly curious about Huai Xiu's request.

Tao Yong not only found it funny, but also disdainful of the three new detectives, "We, the Jinyi Guards, already have detective responsibilities, why do you have to interfere with the six doors? It's really a joke."

Huaixiu smiled, "But I'm afraid it may be inconvenient for you two adults now."

Tao Yong's face turned red, and Qiu Zhuan said coldly, "You already know our outcome, why bother to come into this troubled water?"

Huaixiu said, "Your Excellency dares to investigate smuggling, Huaixiu admires it very much." After saying that, he bowed, "Although there are obstacles in this matter, your Excellency is a court official after all. If a court official is stabbed in the street, how can this be done to the face of the court? Your Excellency,

Although you have the power of investigation, if you are injured, your immediate superior may not allow you to continue the investigation."

Qiu Zhuan also understood, "I'm afraid it's not just as simple as investigating the assassin."

Huaixiu didn't hide it, "What your lord said is true, but don't you want to find the person who assassinated you?"

Of course, Tao Yong said bitterly, "If I can find that person, I will definitely not let him go." Then he looked at the Qiuqian and said, "Brother..."

Qiu Zhuan thought for a moment, "You can't swallow this breath like this."

Huaixiu said, "Then I would like to ask your Excellency to issue a petition and explain the beginning of this matter."

After Huaixiu and the others left, a man walked out of the room, and it was Zhu Yu.

"Your Majesty, what a clever plan." Everyone admired the enemy. Just now, the two of them were discussing the matter. As for the identity of the assassin, Zhu Yu thought of a plan and asked Liu Men to take action. Just then, the person came.
