"Lu Meiren?" Wang Xian asked slowly, "What does she have to do with Lu Jieyu?" ”

"All surnamed Lu," Jin Yingze said: "After the dedication in the sixth year of Yongle, Xia Guo presented a show girl to the Ming Dynasty, among which the daughter of a merchant Lu was elected to the palace and was named a beauty. I heard that this Lu Meiren wants to get along because she has the same surname as Lu Jieyu, but Lu Jieyu thinks she has a low status and is not happy, so Lu Meiren holds a grudge and often has resentment towards Lu Jieyu, "He said angrily: "How can you believe the words of such a person?" ”

"You mean, Lu Meiren made false accusations? Is there any evidence? Wang Xian asked.

"Is there any evidence to do this?" Jin Yingze said dejectedly: "What's the use of relying only on these rumors? At this time, we found out again that we were being targeted by the people of Jinyiwei. I persuaded my cousin to forget it, and he said that since Jinyiwei was eyeing us, there was no possibility of letting us go, and he didn't do it now because we had the identity of the mission as a cover, and we were in the capital. Once he leaves Beijing, it will be the day when Jinyiwei will do it. ”

"It's possible." Wang Xian thought about it for a while, nodded and said.

"I was terrified and asked what to do. My cousin said he had to give it a go. Jin Yingze said: "Later, we found Cui Chengze and helped him design Dengshan. Then Choi Chengze is worried, how to stand out at the lantern festival, my cousin is a Danqing saint, so he naturally hit it off. He designed the interior of the lamp mountain, there is a fire and nitrate hidden in the bamboo tube, he said that it is for fireworks, and after a demonstration, we are not suspicious. ”

"That night, he suddenly said that Jinyiwei was coming, and then he lit the lamp mountain, and the lamp mountain exploded at that time, igniting the whole audience at once." Although two days have passed, remembering the scene at that time, Jin Yingze's face was still pale and said: "I was frightened, but my cousin took my hand and fled into the crowd first, and then was coerced to leave Yuqian Street and hide in a merchant ship on the Qinhuai River. I won't say the name of the shipowner, he didn't know it at all, he had said that he was going to send us out of the city at dawn, and the merchant ship had a mezzanine in the bilge, so he could completely avoid searching. Who knew that there were too many dead people in the fire, and the nine gates of the capital were closed, so they could only hide on the boat first. ”

"Originally, there was food and drink on the ship, and we hid for ten days and half a month, and we could always wait until the city gate opened. This afternoon, the merchant brought a notice and handed it to us without saying a word. As soon as we saw it, the imperial court was angry with the Koreans in Beijing and wanted to wipe them out. I persuaded my cousin that we had become lost dogs, and we couldn't even go back to North Korea, so why bother implicating others? After my cousin escaped from the fire, he was so desperate that he agreed to surrender to me without even thinking about it. Speaking of this, he looked at Wang Xian bitterly and said: "Although I don't have the intention to do evil, but I killed thousands of people from the previous dynasty, and I really can't be punished." But I ask you to keep your promise and spare my family in North Korea. ”

"I'll do my best." Wang Xian looked at this golden boy with pity, in fact, there was nothing heinous, but a good heart. But the soft ears caused this tragedy, and they always have to pay a heavy price for it.......

took Jin Yingze down, and the guards brought a second person, Lu Chengjian. This Lu Chengjian should not be much older than Jin Yingze, but he has a scruffy beard and a depressed face, not like Jin Yingze's cousin, but like his cousin.

The guards asked Lu Chengjian to kneel, but Lu Chengjian didn't kneel, and was pushed to the ground by the guards and held down tightly, but he still stiffened his neck, stared at his blood-red eyes, and glared at Wang Xian angrily.

Seeing him like this, Wang Xian was also angry, and that anger suddenly came out: "You sinful madman, don't you have a trace of guilt!" ”

"Your emperor burned my sister to death, and forced Li Fangyuan to kill my father and mother, don't you feel a trace of guilt?!" Lu Jiancheng said hatefully.

"Whatever your reason, what do you have to do with innocent people? How many families have been shattered, how many elderly people have lost their support, and how many parents have lost their orphans? Wang Xian hated it, and slapped the table and said, "Can hatred make you a beast?!" "In all fairness, Wang Xian is not a good person, and he doesn't even blink when he kills people, such as the fake Zhu Meigui, he didn't even know his identity, and as soon as he was threatened, he said that he would kill him, and he was absolutely unambiguous! But he believes in the wronged and the debtor, and the most despicable thing is to kill innocents indiscriminately. Even the Yongle Emperor, who met the standards of a generation of heroes in his heart in all aspects, was turned into a tyrant in his heart because of this. Not to mention that Lu Jiancheng, who ran to the capital to cause a tragedy, has arrived.

"This is an ......accident," Lu Jiancheng said in a deep voice when he heard this.

"Do you want to say that you originally wanted to set off fireworks?" Wang Xian laughed: "Please come out with the master who made fireworks for you, and I will believe you." ”

"I'm not going to set off fireworks, how can there be fireworks that can write words?" Lu Jiancheng gritted his teeth and said, "I was originally going to assassinate Zhu Di!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the room was shocked, and after a while, Wang Xiancai asked, "How do you want to assassinate?" ”

"The location of Dengshan is facing the noon gate, and I have placed more than a dozen cupola cannons aimed at Wufeng Tower on the shelf of Dengshan." Lu Jiancheng said very regretfully.

"Cupola?" Wang Xian had never heard of this thing.

"This is our North Korea's secret weapon, for the sake of secrecy, it is not usually produced, and the drawings are only known to the master craftsman, and before my family lost power, I was the master in charge of this." Lu Jiancheng said hatefully: "The production method should have been kept secret, but Li Fangyuan is also a brute, why should I keep it secret for him, so why not tell you?" "Yi Fangyuan was the king of Joseon, so now Joseon is also known as the Yi dynasty.

"Tell me about it?" Wang Xian said curiously.

To put it bluntly, it is also simple, that is, the bamboo pole is hollowed out, leaving only the middle compartment, and the two ends are filled with gunpowder and plugged in the lead. However, the back door at the bottom end is not tightly blocked, so that after the explosion of the lower layer of gunpowder, it will push the whole out dozens of feet away. At this time, the lead ignited the upper layer of the seal, causing an explosion. Lu Jiancheng said proudly: "If you don't believe it, just use the method I said to try it." ”

"I don't think I need to, you're talking so much." Wang Xianxin said, isn't it just a sophomore kicker? He laughed and said, "I didn't see you show your might that day." ”

These words poked Lu Jiancheng's weakness, and his face turned red and said: "Who knows that your Ming profiteers have a bad conscience, and the saltpeter sold to me is fake, but it didn't explode when it caught fire......

Wang Xian and the others were sweating, and a strange thought rose in their hearts, should they find this profiteer and give him a gold medal of 'meritorious service'? .

The facts of the case are completely clear at this point, and if Wang Xian asks again, there is basically no difference between what Lu Jiancheng said and what Jin Yingze said. Wang Xian waved his hand and motioned to take him down. He also ordered someone to detain the boatman who harbored the two and the owner of the fireworks shop who sold gunpowder to Lu Jiancheng...... Jokes are jokes, people should be caught, or they have to be caught.

However, Wang Xian didn't have to worry about these trivial matters, he was frowning in the main hall of the single courtyard room of the hotel, writing a closing statement to the emperor. It's not the first time he's written about this thing, he knows the benefits of a knife and a pen, and the wording is different, and the results are very different.

How should the words be worded to grasp the mood of the emperor?

After thinking about it for an hour, Wang Xian finally decided to tell the truth. So he sat down and picked up his pen and wrote a recital for the emperor...... His handwriting can only be regarded as passable, and generally this kind of thing is copied and presented by people. In the draft he prepared, the arson case was described as an assassination case, and as a result, the emperor was blessed with all the heavens, which caused the rocket to ignite and the explosion turned into a burning. Coupled with the strong winds that day, it was the tragedy that sparked.

Wang Xian used a lot of pen and ink to describe the ins and outs of Jin Yingze and Lu Xiucheng, and also pointed out the suspects of the two by the way. Wang Xian believes that with the wisdom of the emperor, after calming down, it is impossible not to think about Lu Jieyu's case, in fact, there are many strange things. Now Wang Xian just wants to give the emperor an excuse...... If the emperor wanted to investigate further, he could naturally issue an order to investigate the case. If the emperor doesn't want to investigate, there will naturally be no follow-up, but it will still create a rift between the emperor and Ji Gang, so why not?

After using all the ink in his belly and writing a not-so-long piece, Wang Xian felt more tired than a battle. rubbed his sour arm and asked, only to realize that he had been writing for more than an hour, and it was already in the middle of the day. Seeing that the brothers accompanied him until the middle of the night, he smiled embarrassedly: "Okay, go home and sleep." ”

"It's all this time, let's stay here for the night." Shuai Hui proposed: "Why are you going back and disturbing your family?" ”

Everyone cast disdainful glances...... That's because you have no one to bother with. Everyone is still in a hurry to go home and drill the hot quilt of the daughter-in-law!

Wang Xianji was worried about the sick Lin Qing'er, naturally he would not stay in the small hotel, and when he came out of the small hotel, the sky was already full of stars outside, and the air was fresh and cold, but Wang Xian was not in the mood to appreciate this rare night, and hurriedly rushed back to the house.

At this time, the door of the house was closed early, and Wang Xian wanted to knock on the door gently to go in, so as not to alarm the sleeping father. Who knew that before Zhou Yong knocked, the door opened suddenly, and the family guarding the door saw that it was really him, turned his head with a happy face, and shouted: "Master, madam, the big official is back!" ”

"What are you calling in the middle of the night?" Wang Xian was a little displeased, what if he quarreled with his father and mother and the little brother who was still breastfeeding?

"Don't worry, the lord and the lady are not sleeping, they are waiting for the lord to come back, and there is good news to tell the officials." The gatekeeper smiled and opened the way,

"What's the good news?" Wang Xian was tired and wanted to die, but when he heard this, his spirits were lifted.

"The villain doesn't dare to chew his tongue, so let's ask the old lady to tell the official." Jia Ding accompanied him and said with a smile: "When the time comes, I will ask for a reward from the big officials!" ”

"It depends on the mood." Wang Xian smiled, strode into the brightly lit hall, and asked with a smile: "Daddy, what's the good news?" I have a brother again? ”
