Lu Liang sighed, "Tomorrow at the latest, the government office will send someone over. I just don't know who will lead the team."
Lu Fang said: "Who else could it be? They are investigating the case!"
"Ah."
Lu Liang laughed and said: "There are so many arrests under the Yamen of the state government, and there are several arrests. Some are easy to deal with, and some are not so easy to deal with."
Lu Fang shrugged, "It's useless for you to think so much now. And in my opinion, those detectives may not be able to find any clues."
Lu Liang narrowed his eyes slightly and remained silent.
…
The capital city of Chongqing goes to Beijing.
This capital city has experienced six dynasties, and it has naturally become the most prosperous place in the Chongqing Dynasty, as well as the economic and political center.
Here, there are officials everywhere who are on the same level as Lu Liang.
As the saying goes, there are as many servants as dogs, and little officials are everywhere.
The imperial palace is undoubtedly the most majestic and spectacular place in Shangjing City, and it is also the most heavily guarded place.
In the past, remnants of the previous dynasty had sneaked into the palace and tried to secretly remove the head of the "king who stole the country", but in the end, they always went in quietly and were never seen again.
Those who can really make some waves in the palace are the top masters in the world.
At this time, in the imperial study room of the palace.
The Dayu Emperor Liang Hanmin, wearing a dragon robe, is sitting on the dragon couch.
He is about fifty years old, with a white face and a beard. It can be seen that he must have been a handsome man in his youth.
The eyes are narrow and long, not angry and intimidating.
There are memorials on the long desk in front, and the documents are stacked like a mountain.
Liang Hanmin held an imperial pen and drew circles or inscribed on the memorial from time to time.
Not to mention whether Liang Hanmin's methods of acquiring this kingdom can withstand scrutiny, but he is indeed a diligent emperor.
I spend most of my time sitting in the imperial study room every day, and even the royal meals are brought directly to the imperial study room. At this moment, the meals are placed beside me.
There was an elderly eunuch with slender, snow-white eyebrows accompanying him. He lowered his eyebrows to please his eyes and reminded him softly in a high-pitched voice, "Your Majesty, it's time for dinner."
The only one who dared to disturb him while he was reviewing the memorial was the old eunuch who was by his side at this moment.
Liang Hanmin seemed to be as inconspicuous as a shadow in front of today's emperor, but even those high-ranking officials who were qualified to attend the court meeting had to give the old eunuch face.
The eunuch, the chief eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, was only a fifth-rank official, but he was the closest person to the emperor.
Not to mention the ladies in the harem, even the empress did not spend as much time with the emperor as the old eunuch.
Even though eunuchs are not allowed to participate in politics, if the old eunuch turns a deaf ear to the emperor and says something intentionally or unintentionally about who is wrong, everyone will be in big trouble.
Even the censors, who were the most noble in the dynasty and were proud of being "able to give advice" and "death to give advice", were not willing to offend the old eunuch.
"Um."
Liang Hanmin responded softly. He was probably tired. He stretched and hit his shoulder again, "Then let's eat first!"
Only then, his eyes caught a glimpse of a black leather memorial on the left hand side.
This is the secret.
Only a few of the officials in Dayu know that there is such a secret color.
Liang Hanmin sat down again and took the secret letter in his hand.
"I send you an envoy from Wu Gou, Jingnan County, to report to your Majesty."
"On the eighth day of the second lunar month, Prince Rong's son and princess left Tanzhou for an outing at Qingyuan Temple in Ningyuan County. Lu Fang, the younger brother of Lu Liang, the magistrate of Ningyuan County, came forward to belittle the princess. Prince Rong wanted to punish him by immersing him in a pig cage, and he was executed.
On the occasion, a master walked on the water and rescued Lu Fang. Afterwards, the prince went to the Ningyuan County Yamen to take Lu Liang away. Lu Fang left and returned. He wrote a poem in public and was exempted from the death penalty by the princess. He hung at the entrance of the Yamen for a day as a punishment.
.Shiyunguan Jujiu, in the river island. A graceful lady, a gentleman likes to fight..."
"Good poem."
After Liang Hanmin finished reading, he uttered two words flatly, and then muttered, "Grandmaster?"
Then he stood up again and said to the old eunuch: "Select out the memorials from Dageng and Jingnan County. I will look at them later."
"yes."
The old eunuch bowed and agreed.
Liang Hanmin ate in the imperial study.
There is no big scene, just about ten dishes.
When he was eating, he looked slow, as if he was still thinking about things, but his actual speed was not slow.
In less than ten minutes, he put down his chopsticks and returned to the dragon couch to sit down.
The old eunuch said softly: "Your Majesty, this is the memorial for Jingnan County and the watchman today."
"Um……"
Liang Hanmin nodded slightly and picked up the top book.
But I glanced at it and put it aside.
After reading several books in succession, I placed them in front of me and looked at them carefully.
It is a memorial from the watchman, and there is no signature on it.
"On the eighth day of the second lunar month, Crown Prince Rong and Princess Li leave Tanzhou..."
The first part is not much different from the content of the previous secret letter, but the writing and sentences are different. Until the second half, "On the night of February 11th, experts were sent to sneak into the Ningyuan County Government Office to investigate, and alerted the master in the County Government Office to take action. The strength
Unknown, we are investigating the details."
Liang Hanmin narrowed his eyes slightly and put the secret note to the side.
Let’s look at the memorial from Jingnan County again.
Others talked about Ningyuan County.
However, the above also brought the details that Liu Mao found out from Lao Xiao.
"The grand master of Ningyuan County Yamen, whose Chinese name is Xiao Yitian and whose real name is Mo Te, claims that he comes from the foot of Huangmao Mountain in Yechuan, Xishan County, Chengdu County. My subordinates are unable to verify the authenticity, so I ask the emperor to make a judgment."
And later there are comments about Lu Fang’s behavior in Ningyuan County.
"Holy Judgment, Holy Judgment, everything must be judged by my Holy Judgment."
Liang Hanmin frowned and muttered dissatisfiedly.
Immediately, he threw three memorials from "Wu Gou", "Date Watcher" and "Jingnan County Yamen" to the old eunuch and said: "Look, this matter... what do you think?"
The old eunuch read it carefully.
Then he looked at Liang Hanmin's face and said: "The emperor is busy with everything. I think it is better to wait for the watchman to find out the truth about this matter. Although the mountains and rivers in Xishan are in chaos, given time, the watchman can always find out the details. If this Xiao Yitian
If what is said is true, then there is nothing to worry about. If what is said is false, then it is very likely that he is a remnant of the previous dynasty. And even if he is a remnant of the previous dynasty, the emperor is now in command of the world and the people's will, so there is no need to worry about such a trivial matter.
worry."
Liang Hanmin wiped his chin beard, "What do you think about Princess Rongwang and that Lu Fang thing?"
The old eunuch only smiled and said, "Princess Rongwang has always cherished talents..."
The words end here.
"You……"
Liang Hanmin pointed at him helplessly and said: "Even if you cherish your talent, sparing Lu Fang's life is already an extra mercy. My niece is very smart. In my opinion, she would rather find someone to marry than anyone else."
Accept the person I choose for her."
"this……"
The old eunuch bowed even lower, "Although Lu Fang is talented in poetry, he behaves wildly. Can the princess like him?"
"It's not a big problem."
Liang Hanmin said something similar to Yu Yuanwei, and then added: "But he has such talent and knowledge, but he is white, which is puzzling. Let people check and see what his background is."
"yes."
The old eunuch only bowed and agreed.
Liang Hanmin looked at a sword hanging on the wall, without saying a word, his eyes were deep.
This sword was given to Liang Shi when King Rong Liang Shi went on an expedition and made Liang Shi his commander. After Liang Shi took off his armor, he returned the sword and the military talisman to him.
