Chapter 343: Catching Mice at Night

Chapter 343: The night of catching mice, Shen Ao tossed and turned, Chun'er slept aside, gently hugged his neck, and said in a low voice: "Husband, what's wrong with you?" Worried? ”

Shen Ao pressed his hand on her plump buttocks and rubbed it gently, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you go to bed early." ”

When Chun'er saw him say this, she immediately closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, but Shen Ao couldn't sleep, how could she sleep.

Shen Ao smiled: "Don't pretend to be asleep, where can you say that you can sleep when you sleep, your eyelashes are still trembling." ”

Chun'er immediately opened her eyes and smiled sweetly: "My husband can't sleep, and I can't sleep either." ”

Shen Ao hugged her and whispered in her ear: "Could it be that Chun'er wants it again?" ”

Chun'er angrily burrowed into Shen Ao's arms: "What do you call again?" You must speak with your conscience. ”

Shen Ao laughed, turned over, and bit and gnawed at her, under the light gauze tent, spring lingered.

…………………… Zhao Zixin lives next door to Shen Ao, there is no way, there is not a small place here, but there are only a few guest rooms, and there are many places for people, so naturally they can't be entertained, so they can only be treated like this. Zhao Zong couldn't sleep when he didn't have a son, and when he saw that his daughter's light was dim, he accompanied his daughter to play chess and chat, and a father and daughter were talking lively, discussing the conspiracy to deal with Di San'er, but they heard the sound of moaning and shaking the bed from next door.

"Huh...... Daddy, did you hear that? ”

Zhao Zong's face couldn't help but blush, and he immediately sat cross-legged and said, "I didn't hear anything. ”

Zhao Zixin twisted his nose and said, "The voice is so loud, you didn't hear it?" ”

Zhao Zonghu said with a grimace: "If you don't hear it, you don't hear it, hurry up and play your chess." ”

"But I heard it." Zhao Zixin was so aggrieved, how could his father not distinguish between black and white, he deliberately said that he didn't hear such a loud voice.

Zhao Zong sighed and said, "If you don't play chess, I'll leave." ”

Zhao Zixing had no choice but to obediently go to play chess again, the sound became louder and louder, and Zhao Zixuan pricked up his ears like a kitten: "Ah, I heard Chun'er talking in her sleep." ”

Zhao Zong said with a straight face: "What Chun'er, I heard a mouse barking." ”

Zhao Zixuan twisted her eyebrows and said in a low voice: "It's obviously Chun'er's, I recognize her voice." ”

After a while, the voice became louder and louder, Zhao Zong couldn't play chess anymore, and thought to himself, this Shen Ao, is there no end to it.

Zhao Zixuan said: "Daddy, why don't we go over there and ask and see if something happened?" ”

Zhao Zong said angrily: "Nothing happened, don't you care, didn't you just say that you want me to watch you paint?" Okay, I'll come and see you draw. ”

Zhao Zixin said: "But it's so noisy, I can't calm down." ”

This argument took a long while, and it finally stopped there, and everything fell into silence again, Zhao Zong breathed a sigh of relief, pinched his fingers and calculated, and it was actually half an hour later, and he was embarrassed in his heart.

Early in the morning of the second day, Zhao Zixuan ran to ask Chun'er excitedly: "Spring ...... Mrs. Zhou, what happened last night? How could I hear that there was a great movement in Madame's room. She planned to find evidence so that she could prove it to her father, but Chun'er was embarrassed and said hesitantly: "My husband and I are catching mice." ”

Oh...... It turned out that there were real mice, it seems that I really heard it wrong, Zhao Zixuan gently twisted his ears, very annoyed.

Shen Ao came out of the room, straightened his clothes, and asked, "What catch mice?" Hey, by the way, I'm going to visit the transfer envoy today, Zi Yu, go and call your father, aren't you going to go to Lord Jiang? Let me go. ”

Zhao Zixin sighed, a little reluctant.

Shen Ao first went to ask the county honor, and the transfer envoy invited the lord, Yu Bichen did not have the reason to leave Shen Ao in difficulty, and said: "There is no major event in the yatang today, if something really happens, the official will come to watch for you, you just go to see Lord Jiang." ”

Shen Ao thanked him, called someone to prepare the car, and escorted the father and daughter who were in trouble to get into the car first, and then jumped on the wheel and entered the carriage, the three of them stared at each other, Shen Ao smiled and said: "Just a moment, my small temple can't accommodate you two big Buddhas, and when you are sent to Lord Jiang, you don't have to suffer these things." ”

The groom set up the car, all the way to the transfer division located in Qiantang County, the yamen in Hangzhou city is not less than Xijing, Suzhou, what the transfer division, the city shipping division, the pacification division, the construction bureau, the criminal division are gathered here, from the second grade of the big official to the ninth grade of the small official, none of them have been pulled down, along the road are through the most prosperous part of Hangzhou, so the carriage went very slowly, the three people swayed in the carriage, Zhao Zong slept late last night, a little unable to open his eyes, almost fell asleep with his head against the wall of the car, suddenly heard Zhao Zixuan said: "Brother Shen." Did you catch a mouse for half an hour last night? ”

Zhao Zong immediately shook his spirit, and his sleepiness was gone, and he suddenly glanced at Shen Ao.

Shen Ao didn't react: "Mouse, where did the mouse come from?" ”

Zhao Zixuan felt even more entangled, and Zhao Zong hurriedly said: "Zixing, I'm going to see you Uncle Jiang, are you happy?" He deliberately diverted the subject so that his precious daughter would not be poisoned.

Shen Ao saw it, and nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I'm so tired, I was really tired from catching a mouse yesterday, and the mouse actually blatantly climbed onto the bed." ”

"On the bed!" Zhao Zixing's eyes widened, revealing a look of horror: "No wonder I heard Chun'er screaming, I thought she was talking in her dreams at that time!" ”

Shen Ao sighed, glanced at Zhao Zong secretly, and continued: "No way, I had to jump out of bed and shake the bed desperately, trying to shake the mouse down, shaking it for half the night, and my hands were sore. ”

Zhao Zixuan covered his mouth and smiled: "Shen Ao is so stupid, how can the mouse shake it down, if it is me, I will find a stick to drive it down." ”

Shen Ao thought to himself: "You are stupid, your whole family is stupid, you actually believe such a ridiculous excuse, and you still laugh at me." ”

Not long after, when he arrived at Jiang Bing's mansion, he called someone to report it, and a principal came out and said, "But is it County Lieutenant Shen?" My lord invited the adults in. ”

Shen Ao and his entourage went straight in, and after a short time, they turned to the main hall, and when they went in, Jiang Bing had not yet come, Shen Ao was quite unhappy in his heart, the person was invited by him, and he was still putting up a shelf at this time.

The subordinate handed over the tea, and waited for half an hour before Jiang Bing came over with a yawn, he was wearing a purple crown, wearing a purple robe, a jade belt around his waist, and stepping on deerskin boots, he said indifferently: "Oh, Lieutenant Shen has been waiting for a long time." As soon as he sat down, he was about to give Shen Ao a dismount, when he heard someone shouting: "Guo'er ......"

Guo'er is Jiang Bing's nickname, and when he heard this, he immediately looked at it, and the tea cup he had just picked up in his hand fell to the ground: "You...... Rajah...... How did you come to Hangzhou? Did His Majesty call you? ”

Zhao Zong rubbed his hands embarrassedly: "It's this king himself." ”

When Jiang Bing heard this, he read with a face like earth: "...... who came by yourself"

A pair of cousins recognized each other, Shen Ao sat aside, smiled in his heart, and put on a shelf, hehe, Master Jiang, this son will give you a hot potato first, see what else you put on the shelf.

Jiang Bing and Zhao Zong sighed, and said: "The clan can't go out of Beijing, and now that no one knows, I want to send the prince back to Beijing immediately. ”

Zhao Zongdao: "I won't go back, how can I leave just here, this Hangzhou city is very fun, wait for me to play for a few days, and when the queen mother is in a hurry, she must force the imperial brother to look for me everywhere, and the imperial brother will not be angry with me at that time." ”

Jiang Bing was so anxious that he stomped his feet and said, "Lord Wang, this is a trivial matter, if you make a mistake in Hangzhou, where can I afford it." ”

Shen Ao said on the side: "I'm afraid it's too late to send it back now...... Ahem...... Lord Jiang, the lower officials have been in the secret overnight and reported the whereabouts of the prince according to the truth. ”

Zhao Zong and Jiang Bing looked at each other and said together: "You...... You...... You've been miserable......"

Shen Ao ignored them, they were cousins, and there was no reason for him to carry the black pot, right?

Jiang Bing thought for a while and said, "The prince and the county lord have been traveling for a long time, so let's rest first, for the sake of today, we can only wait for Your Majesty's decree to come." Come, quickly clean up the two attics, and invite the two distinguished guests to rest. ”

After Zhao Zong and Zhao Zixuan left, Jiang Bingcai looked at Shen Ao, sighed, and said, "You are Shen Ao?" ”

Shen Ao said with a straight face: "The lower official is Shen Ao." ”

Jiang Bing smiled bitterly: "I have already seen you on the Xichun Bridge, the hero is a young man, although you have been secreted about this matter, but this matter, Hugh has to mention it to others, do you know?" ”

Shen Ao nodded and said, "The lower official understands, he must be tight-lipped." ”

Jiang Bing then said: "I heard that the county governor of Renhe County has already taken up his post, hasn't it?" ”

It turned out that Jiang Bing also heard the wind, Shen Ao smiled slightly, and said, "Yes." ”

Jiang Bingdao: "This daylight, I have heard of him, and I recognized Cai Jing's great-grandson as my godfather, this person is so despicable that it is rare, you don't have to be afraid of him, I will make the decision for you." ”

Shen Ao thought to himself, I would be afraid of him, what is he, and said in his mouth: "Lord Xie." ”

Jiang Bing smiled: "Do you know why I said this? ”

Shen Ao thought for a while: "Since ancient times, one mountain has not allowed two tigers, if the day green goes to complain, and the pacification department and the criminal department intervene, the adults will naturally bring one or two officials." "The intrigue between the pacification division and the transfer division, Shen Ao has long heard Yu Bichen say, and now this Jiang Bing has no relatives and no reason for him, and he suddenly came to offer courtesy, most likely because of this. Shen Ao's thinking is already meticulous, coupled with his meticulous heart and his ability to perceive people's hearts, it is not difficult to guess this result.

Jiang Bing laughed: "Sure enough, it's Shen Ao, okay, it's good if you understand." ”

As he was talking, the first person in charge of the house brought a greeting sticker and said, "My lord, the magistrate of the Criminal Division asks to see you." ”

"It's so early!" Jiang Bing shook his spirits and said unhurriedly: "Call him in." ”

Shen Ao couldn't help but smile in his heart, this Lord Jiang is helping himself on the surface, but in fact, he uses most of the ingredients, these feudal officials, where would they put a county magistrate and a county lieutenant in their eyes, but everything they care about is nothing more than making a big fuss and finding a reason to fight openly and secretly.

Fortunately, Shen Ao had already arranged a retreat for himself, but he was not afraid of anything, and sat calmly and drank tea.

The pusher came in, first saluted Jiang Bing, and said: "My lord, the lower official heard that the county lieutenant Shen came to the lord's house, so he specially came to invite the county lieutenant Shen to go to the yamen of the criminal department. ”

Jiang Bing smiled and said, "Oh, what did the Criminal Division ask Shen Ao to do?" ”

The official said: "There is a public case, I need to ask the county lieutenant Shen to ask." ”

Shen Ao stood up: "I'll go with you." ”

The magistrate smiled and said, "That's great." ”

Jiang Bing yawned: "Why don't I go too, anyway, it's very idle today." ”

The transfer envoy wanted to go to the Criminal Division, but no one could stop him, and this official not only came over on Jin Shaowen's order, but also got the instruction of the pacification envoy Li Wen.

Coco Li listened to the news of Dayqing, and heard that Dayqing was going to sue Shen Ao, and suddenly came to his senses, thinking to himself, the last time Jiang Bing praised the county lieutenant Shen so much, this is very good, and now he just happened to use this public case to show Jiang Bing, whether he is the master of the two Zhejiang roads, or his own appeasement envoy.

Then he immediately called someone to invite Shen Ao to come, and asked Shen Ao and Riqing to confront each other, and the magistrate went to the county government first, and learned that Shen Ao went to the transfer department, so he immediately reported, without the order of the pacification envoy, the little judge, where dare to go to the transfer envoy, Li Cohen said coldly to the judge: "The prince broke the law and still committed the same crime as the common people, not to mention that as a scholar, he actually trapped his colleagues to death, so the crime is extremely evil, don't say that he hid in the transfer department, that is, he entered the palace, and he also wanted him to make it clear." ”

With this instruction, the magistrate immediately understood, and immediately rushed to the transfer department, strengthened his courage, and came to see him.
