Chapter 498 Straight Beard

Is Zhao Ding the kind of shameless villain who forgets his righteousness, of course not, he is really aggrieved. Zhao Yougong knows Zhao Ding's ability very well, and this kind of talented person has been a member of the criminal department for seven years, and he hasn't even moved the place. It is already very good that Zhao Ding can still live well, and if he changes to a person with an arrogant heart, I am afraid that he will either die of depression, or resign and return to his hometown.

Yang Zaixing looked at Zhao Ding, who was kneeling on the ground and in pain, with mixed feelings in his heart, now there are too many depressed people like Zhao Ding in the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Ding is good, like the old general Liu Zhongwu, who fought for the country all his life, and died of depression in the end, if it weren't for the rise of His Royal Highness in Guanzhong, I'm afraid that General Liu still has the reputation of a fugitive general. When Emperor Huizong was in power, the court was full of people like Wang Hao and Li Yan, and the army was also timid and afraid of people like Liu Yanqing and Tong Guan. After picking up Zhao Ding and comforting him a few words, Zhao Ding's temperament calmed down a lot, and after some exchanges, Zhao Ding frowned and said, "Your Highness, you didn't kill those Jin State guards?" ”

"Of course not, this king is not the kind of person who is afraid of things, not to mention a few guards, it is Wanyan Zongwang, as long as this king kills, he dares to admit it. Lord Zhao, you don't need to worry, the king of Ming Japan will play the three divisions, and Lord Zhao will be the Langzhong of the Criminal Department, and he will be responsible for reviewing the case together with the Kaifeng Mansion. During the investigation, General Yang will be by Lord Zhao's side. ”

"Dare to ask Your Highness, what is the end of this case?" Zhao Ding is a smart man, he must find the direction first, this case is not so simple.

Zhao Yougong thought for a while and said softly, "Find out the specific cause of death of those Jin State guards." Who is the murderer. The most important thing is to have evidence. Of course. The details of this case do not need to be notified to Kaifeng Prefecture, and if anyone is reprimanded, it can be handed over to General Yang. ”

"In this way, the lower officials will definitely live up to His Highness's trust!" Zhao Ding's words have a lot of confidence, the criminal name copywriting is what he is good at, plus this is the first thing that Qin Wangfu does, and he must do it beautifully.

After Zhao Ding and Yang Zaixing left, Zhao Yougong wrote a note. Zhao Ding was fully elected to preside over the case. His Royal Highness the King of Qin personally recommended talents, and no one in the imperial court would be stupid enough to make Zhao Yougong unhappy for this matter, and Zhao Ding soon took office. In the next two days, Zhao Yougong, the king of Qin, made a lot of noise about killing the envoys of the Jin State. Zhao Ding naturally didn't pay attention to the words in the market, Yang Zaixing led the troops to open the way, and the yamen of the imperial court were unimpeded, Zhao Ding personally entered the morgue of Kaifeng Mansion for an autopsy, and each body was examined very carefully. Yang Zaixing has been by his side. Watching Zhao Ding inspect the corpse, he was also secretly surprised. In the past, when he followed His Royal Highness to govern Kaifeng Mansion, he also saw the government officials for an autopsy, but it was the first time he saw Zhao Ding so carefully.

Zhao Ding's autopsy is naturally very detailed, and even a little terrifying, sometimes Zhao Ding uses iron pliers to pry open the mouth of the dead man, lying on it and smelling it, and his nose twitches and twitches, so that Yang Zaixing almost didn't vomit out the overnight meal. I want Yang Zaixing to fight on the battlefield, killing countless people, and I don't know how many tragic things I have seen, but there is too much difference from what Zhao Ding did. couldn't stand the atmosphere of the morgue, Yang Zaixing fortunately ran out of the house, wanting to breathe. Leaning under the big tree to breathe in the fresh air, suddenly, a person walked in front of the yard, that person's figure was somewhat familiar, Yang Zaixing didn't think much about it, ran up and patted the person's shoulder, and when the person turned his face, Yang Zaixing showed a little joy, "Xie beard, do you still recognize Yang?" ”

In three years, Xie Da's beard has not changed at all, he still has a beard, and his hair is fluffy, like steel slag. What is slightly different is that the red official uniform was replaced by a black official uniform, and there was a big "ya" character on the front and back.

After many years, I had to meet an acquaintance, Xie Wudi was also surprised and delighted, patted Yang Zaixing with both hands, laughed and said, "It's Brother Yang, you" seemed to remember something, Xie Wuving's face was panicked, he took a step back, and bowed, "The little one has seen General Yang!" ”

Yang Zaixing was slightly stunned, and clenched his fist on Xie Wuyi's shoulder, "Okay, you bearded, you do this, but you can't do it?" ”

Seeing that Yang Zaixing's expression didn't seem to be fake, Xie Wushu smiled awkwardly, "This, Brother Yang's identity is not as good as before!" ”

"Okay, Yang doesn't have the heart to talk to you, bearded, what's the matter with you? The first head catcher in Kaifeng Mansion back then, why did he put on the official uniform of the official servant and go to this morgue to do things? ”

Hearing Yang Zaixing's question, Xie Wuxian's rugged face showed a bit of complexity, he scratched his head, and said with a smile, "Brother Yang is doing this, are you free, if you still recognize Xie Mou, let's go have a few drinks in the evening." ”

Yang Zaixing also saw that Xie Wudi was reluctant to say it, in fact, Xie Wudi was a sincere person, he couldn't hide things at all, Yang Zaixing was a smart person, he thought about it for a while, and he understood what was going on, his brows were locked, he looked at Xie Wuving, and said in a deep voice, "Bearded, of course it's okay to drink this wine, but you, is it because you sent His Royal Highness out of Beijing that day, did you get to this point today?" ”

Hearing Yang Zaixing's words, the rugged Xie beard actually had the urge to cry, isn't it, just because he was friendly with His Highness and saw His Highness off, many old friends began to distance themselves from him, and even Ma Rulong and others stopped talking to him. When His Royal Highness King Yun was in charge of Kaifeng Mansion, his first head catcher in Kaifeng Mansion, which was extremely beautiful, was immediately turned into a small catcher, and his original seat was also taken by Ma Rulong. When you catch fast, you should catch fast, Xie Wudi is not the kind of person who loves power, and doing things in Kaifeng Mansion is nothing more than wanting to make money to support his family. But Xie Wushu thought too simply, two years ago, because of the murderer, Ma Rulong and others put all the blame on him, and in the end they couldn't do it quickly, so they went directly to the morgue to look at the door, although they hadn't changed into the official uniform with the word "仵", but they were actually not far from the yamen, dealing with dead people all day long, and the salary was even more pitiful. used to have a good salary, plus Zhao Xiaojun Wang rewarded a lot of money, and his life was quite relaxed, but since he looked at the corpse, his income has plummeted. Sometimes Xie Wudi really wanted to quit his job, but when he thought that the second elder in the family was still counting on this money to live, he had to endure it. Fortunately, he still had some savings when he was with the little county king, otherwise he would really let the second elder drink the northwest wind now.

Xie Wudi didn't want to talk to Yang Zaixing about these things. It's as if he's a bearded little man who is a vassal of the rich. "Brother Yang. Don't say these things? Could it be that if I become an errand, you will look down on me? ”

Yang Zaixing naturally would not look down on Xie Wuving, and His Royal Highness often talked about Xie Wuving, but he was entangled in everything and failed to find it. Yang Zaixing was a little angry, but he was angry about something else, "Bearded, Yang asked you." Your Highness is back in Beijing, do you know? ”

"You know, it's such a big deal, who in Tokyo doesn't know?"

Xie Wudi didn't think much about it, and replied casually, but he didn't think that Yang Zaixing's face instantly turned cold, and his eyes were much sharper, "Okay, you bearded, since you know that Your Highness has returned to Beijing, why don't you go to see Your Highness." Since returning to Beijing, His Royal Highness has talked about the three people the most. One is the emperor, the other is the Li family, and the other is you, do you really want His Highness to come to see you in person? ”

Xie Wushu didn't expect Yang Zaixing to be so atmospheric, at this time, Yang Zaixing's momentum was revealed, which made Xie Wuxing look at each other unwillingly, "Brother Yang, why do you have to be angry, I'm just just"

Xie Wudi naturally has his own thoughts, if His Highness is still that Highness and is in prison, he will definitely go to see it. But now that His Royal Highness is sitting in Guanzhong and is the king of Qin, he doesn't want to go, so as not to be seen as a villain who is dependent on the powerful and admires glory and wealth.

"You're just a fart, you say so much, and when Lord Zhao comes out, you will go with a certain family to see His Highness. Don't do this bad thing in Kaifeng Mansion, so as not to be looked down upon. ”

"This Brother Yang Xie is going to see His Highness like this?" Xie Wushu pointed to this tattered official uniform, and his old face turned red. Yang Zaixing smiled, "You Xie Dabeard is also embarrassed, okay, Your Highness is not that kind of layman." ”

After waiting outside for a while, Zhao Ding came out of the house, he wiped his hands, came to Yang Zaixing's side, and said with a solemn expression, "General Yang, the matter is clear, and you need to inform His Highness earlier." ”

Yang Zaixing was taken aback, looked Zhao Ding up and down, and said in disbelief, "Lord Zhao, have you really found out the clue?" ”

"Of course!" Zhao Ding smiled slightly, looked at Xie Wushu again, and then walked outside.

In the evening, in the small pavilion in the garden of the Chu Palace, Zhao Yougong was naturally very happy to see Xie Wuving, and the two of them inevitably sighed. After listening to Yang Zaixing tell Xie Wudi about it, Zhao Yougong also had mixed feelings in his heart, it was rare to find a pure friend like Xie Wuving, and in a way, Xie Wuving was also very lucky. Fellowship with King Qin is such a hated thing, and it is an accident to be able to save a life. When they met again, Zhao Yougong didn't reward Xie Wushu with any gold and silver treasures, but just gave him four jars of good wine. Because he knows that Xie Dabeard intersects because of the righteousness of friends, if he gives some money, it will make the bearded man think more, and his feelings will inevitably be farther away.

In the courtyard, Zhao Yougong and Zhao Ding talked a lot, and they didn't shy away from Xie Wuving, which also made Xie Wuving feel a lot more relieved.

"Your Highness, the cause of death of those Jin State guards has also been ascertained, but as the Kaifeng Mansion said, they all died of excessive bleeding. However, after investigation, the lower officials found some differences, and the expressions of those guards were calm, not painful. The next official examined the tongue coating and smell, and after confirming it in the third place, it was determined that these people had taken the 'Soul Forgetting Soup' before they died. ”

"Soul Forgetting Soup? What is it? ”

"Back to Your Highness, this substance is a venom extracted from the mandala flower seed, and the person who takes it will be in pain and fall into a coma. It was precisely because of this thing that those Jin Kingdom guards did not have a hideous look on their faces, and they were able to bleed to death silently. Xia Guan has taken out the remnants from the root of the deceased's tongue and between the teeth, which can be used as evidence! ”

Soul-Forgetting Soup? It's really a good name, Zhao Yougong also admired Zhao Ding's ability a little, it only took two days to figure out the specific cause of death, and even the details were so clear. At this time, Zhao Yougong smiled at the corner of his mouth, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

It seems that he really guessed correctly, Wanyan Zongwang did things with a lot of meaning, and he wanted Su Ke Shaha to die, but he didn't dare to do it himself. Now he quietly killed those Jin State guards, and also buckled the basin on his Zhao someone's head, so it can only be explained that Wanyan Zongwang was very afraid in his heart, and he was afraid that the truth would reach Huining Mansion. In the Dajin Kingdom, who else can there be other people who are worthy of Wanyan Sect's fear? Hehe, it's not impossible to carry this black cauldron for Wan Yan Zongwang, but the second prince of Wan Yan also has to pay a price.

"Shao Lie, these ghost tricks played by Yan Zongwang will definitely not be able to hide from the cronies around him, you have to find a way to catch an insider and come back!"

"Your Highness, rest assured, this matter will be done in the end!"

After instructing Yang Zaixing, Zhao Yougong set his eyes on Xie Wudi, "Bearded, don't go back to Kaifeng Mansion in the future, follow Lord Zhao!" ”

"Hey, what did Your Highness say, I'll listen, hehe!" The bearded man is a cheerful person, Zhao Ding naturally wants to thank him, he does lack a thug and helper, Yang Zaixing is a tiger general under the account of the King of Qin, and it is impossible to protect him Zhao Ding's safety every day, but this Xie beard is very suitable.

"Hehe, what a refreshing beard, you can talk to your family in the past two days, and let Shao Lie help you send the second elder to Chang'an. In the future, if you follow this king, you will inevitably be born and die, don't let the second elder suffer with you! ”

Xie Wudi was inexplicably moved in his heart, he nodded and snorted, His Highness is really a person who misses the old, and it is not a loss to sell his life to His Highness. (To be continued......)
