Zhao Meng, the king of Feng, came to Tang Jiong's house not to wish the old lady a happy birthday, but to sing praises to Emperor Wanlong. He said impassionedly that Emperor Wanlong was an ancient wise king who would surely open up a prosperous age, unify China, and create a new world for all generations.
Foundation. Just like today, if Emperor Wanlong had not boldly revised the ancestral system and exempted from national mourning, would your family be able to hold such a grand birthday celebration? Therefore, I ask everyone present to kowtow in the direction of the palace to express gratitude, and Prince Teng is no exception.
!
Hearing this, everyone was stunned at first, and then the second master, Tang Ning, gave the ceremony officer a look. The ceremony officer immediately shouted: Face the imperial city and kneel down collectively!
Hundreds of people from the Tang family, as well as the royal family who came to celebrate their birthdays, including the Meng family, the Ximen family, and the nobles of Gongxun Street, all knelt down. But Prince Teng stood there and stared coldly at Prince Feng. Later, it was Princess Xue who persuaded Prince Teng.
Then he knelt down.
You must know that King Teng Qiansui was the uncle of Emperor Wanlong and a great contributor to Zhao Tian's ascension to the throne. He had already won the honor of being exempted from kneeling in front of the emperor, but now he was forced to kneel due to the situation.
After Zhao Meng, the king of Feng, left, King Teng's face was so ugly that there is no need to express it in words.
"It's not good, it's not good, the people from the Red Flower Club were arrested by the county."
A little girl from the Honghua Club whose trade name was "Hua Qian Shu" came to Qinghua Square and found Su Ping. Su Ping didn't recognize this little girl, but the little girl wore a nine-turn lotus ring on her finger, which proved that
her identity.
The girl was very young and out of breath from running, but she was clear-headed and articulate, so that Su Ping could understand her. Su Ping advised her not to panic, and also took a piece of meat from the table for her to eat. The little thing devoured it, and Su Ping
Then he handed her a bowl of shrimp ball soup to soothe her throat.
Then Su Pingcai rode on his horse, holding thousands of bunches of flowers in front of him, left Qinghuafang and went straight to the county government office.
By the way, is it okay to just say no to Yin Tangjiong of Jingzhao Prefecture about this matter? Su Ping feels that this is obviously a bit like cannons to fight mosquitoes. It is like a fine of 100 for traffic violations. It seems very inappropriate to call the provincial chief to seek solutions.
.
When he came to Wan'an County, he took out the documents from Shilang Xue and negotiated with the county magistrate who was on night shift. The county magistrate didn't say much, he just picked up his pen to fill out the paperwork and asked Su Ping to sign it. It was just a letter of guarantee. Su Ping read it
Look, I'm signing with a pen.
Not long after, Su Ping took away the member of the Red Flower Club. He was a tough-looking young man. Su Ping asked him his name. He said that he was an orphan and grew up in a dungeon. He had no name, only a business number, and was called
The wind comes at night.
The dungeon he talks about is not a government dungeon, but an evil dungeon run by some killer organizations.
The killer organization captures children, hides them underground, and teaches them killing techniques. When they are twelve years old, they throw ten children into a cage without food, and let them kill each other and eat meat to survive. In each cage, only
Two winners remain.
Such children are given the title of "produced by the dungeon", and they are all elites among killers. Perhaps those selected in this way may not all have outstanding martial arts skills, but they must be the most willing to sacrifice.
Looking at the stunned Ye Laifeng, Su Ping felt a little scared and frowned.
Ye Lai Feng said: "That man named Zhang left home through the back door in the middle of the night and sneaked into a mansion. I went to see that mansion and there was only a beautiful young lady with two children, two maids, and a young lady in charge.
The man called Sister. That man knows some martial arts, but he is no match for me."
Su Ping asked: "Zhang Guan?"
Ye Laifeng said: "Yes. It's that teacher."
Su Ping decided on the spot that he would not go back to Qinghuafang. Instead, he went to the Ministry of Punishment to call for help. He led a dozen swordsmen from the night shift of the Ministry of Punishment and broke into Tongyuanfang. He summoned the six officers from Tongyuanfang and tortured them with handcuffs and leg irons.
Qiao, they split up and acted separately. Su Ping led a group of people, under the guidance of Ye Laifeng, and rushed to the mansion. Mei Ran, on the other hand, led a group of people and rushed to Zhang Guan's home.
Su Ping broke into the mansion and kidnapped the family without saying a word.
"Bring Lu Ming up."
In the main hall of this mansion, Su Ping decided to interrogate the man named Lu Ming alone first. Lu Ming was tied up and kneeling on the ground. Su Ping sat in a chair, pressing his knees with one arm, looking down at Lu Ming: "Let me be lenient if you confess.
If you resist, you will be punished. Originally, you are an innocent person, but if you tell lies, you will be a serious criminal. Do you hear me clearly?"
"Listen clearly."
"Then answer me truthfully, what is your relationship with Zhang Guan?"
"The villain doesn't know Zhang Guan."
"Whose mansion belongs to you?"
"It's mine, villain."
"what line of business are you in?"
"My father is from Xuzhou and has a lot of money. After his death, I sold my property and settled in Luoyang. I just stick to the family business and don't do business."
Su Ping pointed out that Lu Ming said to the swordsman: "Take him down."
Later, Su Ping interrogated the woman, who was the pretty girl Ye Laifeng mentioned. In fact, she was quite old and was the mother of two children. She was tied up and knelt in front of Su Ping.
Su Ping sat in a chair, with one arm bent on his knees, looking down and said: "If you confess, you will be lenient, if you resist, you will be severely punished. Originally, you and your children are innocent, but if you tell lies, you will be serious criminals."
.Did you hear that clearly?”
The woman was so scared that she trembled and kowtowed: "Listen clearly."
"Answer me truthfully, what is your relationship with Zhang Guan?"
"The folk girl doesn't know Zhang Guan."
"Bold!" Su Ping shouted loudly: "Just now, Lu Ming confessed, how dare you lie! Zhang Guan committed a crime, there is irrefutable proof, he is already dead! I am asking you now because I want to give you a chance to forgive your sins.
.But if you dare to conceal it, you will be guilty of cover-up and perjury! It doesn’t matter if you die, your two children will be implicated by you and will be slaves for life!"
"Ah?" The woman's face turned pale and she sat on the ground in shock.
Su Ping added: "For the sake of the two children, I will give you another chance. Please answer me, what is your relationship with Zhang Guan?"
The woman suddenly burst into tears and sobbed: "The daughter of the people is Zhang Guan's wife."
"Whose house does this house belong to?"
"It belongs to Zhang Guan, but it is written in my brother's name."
In fact, Su Ping's crime detection rate was not high. He sent people to keep an eye on the eighteen suspects who were reported anonymously. After many days, he only caught two people.
As the old saying goes, sometimes solving crimes requires some luck. Casting a wide net will double your luck. Of course, the premise is that you have the opportunity to cast a wide net.
At this time, Mei Ran had already broken into Zhang Guan's house and tied up Zhang Guan. Mei Ran, as usual, slapped Zhang Guan twice before speaking. But no matter what Mei Ran asked, Zhang Guan just lied and never admitted it.
.
Later, Mei Ran received news from Su Ping that the case had been solved and Zhang Guan could be taken away. So Mei Ran escorted Zhang Guan to the Criminal Department and locked him up with Tian Qun, the first person to be arrested.
…
The residence of the Minister of Industry.
Under the dim light, Gan Jing, the minister of industry, sat sullenly at the table.
Cao Huali, the Minister of Rites, sat opposite the oil lamp.
"Where did that person named Su come from?" Gan Jing asked in a deep voice.
Cao Huali said: "I have found out clearly that he is the surrogate son-in-law of Duke Anguo. However, his surrogate relationship has been annulled by the emperor. But the sixth lady, Tang Mei, has never written a letter of divorce. And I also heard that , after being conferred the title of Princess Loulan, Tang Mei had an ambiguous relationship with him. In the past, it was said that Miss Sixth looked down on her son-in-law, but now it seems that the situation has changed."
Gan Jing thought for a while and said: "How dare Princess Loulan disobey the emperor's imperial edict? Oh, I'll wait until I read her book. When the time comes, your Ministry of Rites will also speak out."
Cao Huali said: "Please rest assured, Mr. Gan, the certificates from the Ministry of Rites will be sent up together with yours."
Gan Jing nodded and said: "First cut off his contact with the Tang family, and then let him die."
Cao Huali smiled: "Damn Gan's martial arts master must have done this?"
The masters raised by Gan Jing's family, Gui Jianchou and Gui Tou Ying, are said to have studied under Lei Wenqian, one of the four great masters, the "Nine Yang King Kong".
Gan Jing frowned: "Why, can't you handle such a small thing?"
Cao Huali gave a bitter smile and said with a flattering smile: "Cao heard that this guy with the surname Su is quite extraordinary. He once defeated a Khitan warrior. Of course, if Master Ruo Gan doesn't want to take action, let Cao try it first. "
Cao Huali of Ganjing knew clearly that this could not directly solve the problem, but it could knock down the mountain and shake the tiger. Kill Xue Shilang's minions, let him know his fear, and force him to "join the gang". At that time, everyone will advance and retreat together. This is what the Liang Dynasty is now. officialdom.
…
Su Ping was busy all night, and met Xue Pang early the next morning to tell him the story. Xue Pang was very satisfied and praised him loudly.
Su Ping was very sleepy and asked for leave to go home to rest. When Su Ping returned to Anguo Palace with sleepy eyes, she was stopped by Zhen Ping'er. The maidservant in Jinyi looked anxious: "The princess has something urgent to see my uncle, please go directly to the superintendent's office." Meet."
Arriving at Mei Pavilion, Tang Mei handed Su Ping a document from Ouchi. Although this was not an imperial edict, it was almost the same as an imperial edict. The document condemned Tang Mei for failing to follow the emperor's will. Tang Mei is now ordered to , immediately write a letter of divorce and expel Su's son-in-law from the house. If he neglects his duties, he will be punished for disobedience.
As soon as Su Ping finished reading, Tang Mei said: "I don't think this is Zhao Tian's handwriting. It is probably Zhongshu Sheng's idea. But the document has been stamped with the imperial seal of Zhu Biao, which means that the palace has already read it."
Su Ping was silent.
Tang Mei added: "In this case, I can't neglect it. It will be troublesome if you are accused of resisting the imperial decree. But I have made arrangements for you to leave the Duke's Mansion temporarily and live in this Supervisory Mansion. .I asked Grandma Wang and her maid to clean up the main house in the back. Where will you live from now on?"
The main room in the backyard of the Supervisory Office is quite spacious. Compared with the snail's residence, it is many times bigger.
Su Ping didn't know what to say, and then he heard Tang Mei say: "I have already written the letter of divorce. You come and sign it. It will be in duplicate. I will also give one copy to the chamberlain."
Su Ping just picked up the pen and saw Tang Mei pressing her hand on the document: "You are not allowed to run away with the divorce letter. I asked you to propose marriage for the second time. Have you done this?"
