Aggrieved Fish Sprite: 177|No way to ask

The Qingjiang River is so fast that there are many rocks on both sides of the river, and it is impossible for a ship to find a spot to dock.

When Zhuhou Temple was built, wood and stones were transported by water. For convenience, a wharf was built on the river bank. Although the wharf has been abandoned because it is unused, the areas that have been renovated are no better than the banks of the shoal with rocks.

Lu Yan looked at the carriages and horses on the boat, as well as Mr. Jinshui, who could not be carried on his shoulders, and he gave up arguing with He Mouse that he didn't care about jumping over the rocky beach in twos or twos.

Moli is standing in the bow of the ship, looking forward.

He didn't see the mausoleum temple that he expected to appear.

According to historical records, Emperor Chu Yuan deliberately built it as an imperial tomb for his burial in a hundred years, and he wanted to follow the example of Zhaolie Temple and Wuhou Temple, not to let his courtiers bury the imperial tomb, but in the same place. Sacrifice.

There is no attached queen concubine garden, nor princess and prince’s garden. The layout is based on the southern Taiwei wall of the Big Dipper. There are a total of 18 tombs, ten of which can be called mausoleums. The pattern of archway temples belongs to the princes. Specifications.

The first to be buried was Leyang Hou Zhu Yan.

It's also the last one.

This huge mausoleum has started several times and stopped several times.

In the early years, it was because the new dynasty was inaugurated and a hundred wastes were waiting for prosperity. Everywhere was very tight. Only the part of Leyanghou was repaired and construction was suspended. Only the area expected to be occupied was marked out, and then special personnel were assigned to take care of it. .

When the state treasury had surplus, it was necessary to repair the imperial city and the various yamen. It was not until the 20th year of Emperor Chu Yuan’s reign that the mausoleum was officially started. Within a year of repair, the soil collapsed. A servant died. The Ministry of Industry and the people of the Qintian Supervisor came over and surveyed again and again, and then came up with the feng shui theory, claiming that Qingjiang is a dragon, and the poor location of the tomb can't suppress the luck, so it should choose another location.

This matter has been tossed in the court for a long time, but it finally stopped.

Emperor Chu Yuan ordered the people to choose another site to build the imperial tomb. Other officials wanted to return to their roots and return to their hometown for burial, but did not specifically object. Later--

Oh.

Mo Li silently recites the topography that records the old events of the Chu Dynasty in his heart.

The world is flowing, what can I do?

The ship slowly approached the shore, the dusk was deep, and I could only see a few roofs that looked like cornices.

The bluestone slabs on the pier were scattered, and weeds grew in the gaps.

"Here, take the horse out first." The old boatman greeted everyone.

Although Lu Yan had bargained with He Mouse for a long time, as long as he agreed, he would be very happy to give the money. There was no reluctance on his face.

He Mouse was very surprised. He scratched his head and took the initiative to go ashore to help Lu Yan put his horse in the cart.

"Are you a driver? Why don't you even know a car?" He Mouse contemptuously said.

Lu Yan hesitated to say something and stopped, of course he wasn't.

Riding is still good, no one has taught a prince how to drive a car!

"See if you don't see it, hold it down here, and then lift the cowl up." He Mouse demonstrated while disgusting.

Lu Ming simply bent over and squatted aside to watch. He didn't expect that after he separated from Meng Qi Moli, the carriage would not follow him if he was not his, and it was useless to learn.

Mr. Jinshui shook the ground one step at a time. After the boat passed the guillotine beach, he could not slow down until he set foot on the shore, and then he sat down on the ground like collapse.

"Mr. did not expect it to be difficult to escape from Taijing?" Mo Li asked, standing by.

Mr. Jinshui brought a baggage and a large wooden box. It didn't look like a desperate flight, but more like those scholars who were studying and visiting relatives. With such a heavy baggage, how to run in danger?

Mr. Jinshui was ashamed and regretful, and he said for a long time: "I never thought of running away before. It is easy to be tracked because of the guide in my hand. I also don't have the ability to live in seclusion in the deep mountains and forests. I may not be able to walk to the dock. I was caught back, so I used my brains elsewhere. A while ago, Taijing had changed, and I felt that an opportunity had come. I waited tremblingly outside to restore calm, while thinking about how to escape... Things turned out to be better than I thought. There is smooth progress and turmoil between the ruling and opposition parties. Although I don’t know the forces behind those people, I have been able to find some suspects based on clues over the years, especially those who I have taken the exams on their behalf. I know their hometowns. Names, they entered the officialdom after being named on the gold list, and attached to whoever took refuge in whom, I can inquire about these things from Fengxing Pavilion, so...these individuals have been removed and demoted one after another, and I am overjoyed."

The forces behind the fraud case have been hit hard, and the next thing may be the Dongchuang incident.

——This case involves too many people and too many people.

Many people are mixed.

In the beginning, for profit, people can still keep a secret firmly, because relying on this method can get money and power. Now that the internal chaos is happening, it is not certain that someone will use this secret to make a name in order to change the faction. By then, everyone can get away from this sinking ship, and they can exchange for glory and wealth. Why not do it?

At this time, Mr. Jinshui has to leave.

If you don't go, you really can't go.

"I still underestimated the forces behind those people. I thought the situation was in such a chaotic situation and they couldn't make a move... Even if they were caught, they would die."

Mr. Jin Shui looked at the box of books. These were his collections for many years. Some of them are still originals. How can they be willing to discard them?

Meng Qi shook his head when he heard this, "Mr. Didn't he think that the people who came to arrest you are not necessarily to kill you?"

Mr. Jinshui hesitated and said: "They had an infighting. Someone is going to expose the case and grab me as important evidence?"

"Not bad."

"That...that is also my fate." Mr. Jinshui looked bitter.

As a participant in a fraud case, someone who can still be admitted to the scholarship on behalf of Juren must anger the emperor.

"Even frauds such as the county examination and government examinations will provoke public anger, not to mention the Yuyuelongmen examination. The emperor of the Qi Dynasty did not understand the Four Books and Five Classics. The examination questions for the palace examination were issued by the Imperial Academy and were used by those people. Get it out...this kind of horrific fraud, everything that gets on it can't escape a dead word, can't leave the whole body, and it will cause harm to the three clans."

Mo Li understood what Meng Qi meant. Hearing that Mr. Jin Shui only thought of death, he couldn't help frowning: "Mr. Isn't he afraid of death?"

"What's the use of being afraid? Fortunately, I am alone. My family had already died cleanly on the day of the fall of the Chu Dynasty." Mr. Jin Shui's expression was complicated, both hated and relieved. Over the years, every time I wake up from a nightmare, I can see those scholars who died tragically because of not and their families.

Although he didn't do evil by himself, he still couldn't make it through his conscience.

Mr. Jinshui stood up swayingly, and said with difficulty: "As long as it is not executed by Ling Chi or beheaded in the middle, it will only be done in one fell swoop."

Seeing him like this, Mo Li couldn't bear to continue.

Meng Qi said solemnly: "Mr.'s words are wrong. Could Mr. think that after he was in jail, he had identified people and said that he could wait for Qiuhou to be executed after he was finished?"

Without waiting for Mr. Jinshui's answer, Meng Qi stretched out his hand and dragged the second prince over.

"Talk about it."

"...will be severely tortured."

Actually, Lu Yan didn't know the trial process of the Ministry of Justice or Dali Temple, but he still knew the severity of the fraud case. He also knew the faces of the polite civil and military officials in the court.

——In other words, it is the prince who planned to rebel.

Lu Yan said to the stiff and sluggish Mr. Jin Shui: “It is said that they do not believe in the criminal’s active confession. The people involved in this kind of big case have no room to stand up. It’s just a matter of death sooner or later, so even courtiers are imprisoned. , It will not be exempt."

"More than that, no matter what the husband said or who he identified, the person who asked the case will never be satisfied." Meng Qi lowered his voice, his eyes showed that he didn't say it to Mr. Jin Shui, but rushed towards Lu Ming. To go.

"Even if the officials have a clear governance, the factionalism will give people selfishness and want to take advantage of the power to suppress the power of political opponents. According to court law, in order to prevent trialers from inducing confessions, three people will supervise torture and interrogation at the same time. They need criminals. Take the initiative to say the answer you want, so you will keep torturing. If the husband doesn’t understand the situation of the ruling and opposition parties and the courtier’s name is okay, but the husband knows."

Meng Qi's expression was cold, and his voice was as cold as a gust of wind on the surface of the river, so cold to the bones.

Lu Yan shivered first, and involuntarily murmured: "Then... it's even harder. The three people in the trial must be from different factions. They can't induce confessions, and they can't accept what is detrimental to them. The answer. Whenever you are not tortured and you confide a person’s name indiscriminately, you will have to stir up a storm in the DPRK. Eventually, they have reached a consensus and are ready to use this to close the case, and you still don’t know what the so-called'standard answer' is, you can only Being tortured over and over again, talking nonsense again and again, until they say that they are satisfied, can they draw a confession and wait for the execution after autumn."

Mr. Jinshui has no expression on his face.

Speaking of scholars must be praised, and kings often claim to rule the world with filial piety, and to convince everyone with virtue, but only scholars know how much water there is in these words.

He set the car next to him. He was originally eavesdropping in a daunting manner. Now he was shocked. He didn't dare to listen anymore. He quickly ran into the boat in three steps and two steps.

The old boatman was leading a ship repair gang. When he passed the guillotine beach before, a plank on the side was smashed into a recess.

"Uncle Yang, let's go quickly!" He Mouse urged by rubbing his hands.

"Now know that you are afraid?"

The old boatman did not hear the conversation between Meng Qi and others, but he could guess some of the mouse's expressions.

Mouse He said quietly, "Isn't it already gone!"

He said, looking back at the cabin, he hesitated: "Master Cha, no, what about the Chaqi gang? Are you really throwing them into the river to feed the fish?"

In the distance, the black carp's ears moved.

The old boatman sneered holding the sack and said: "People will float up when they die, unless the sack is filled with stones. Why do you dirty your hands later, and find a shoal later in the dark... …Yes, you don’t need to get to the shore, just leave the people down. When they wake up, and then find a way to return to Taijing, we are already hundreds of miles away."

"Uncle Yang is brilliant." He Mouse immediately patted his horse and slipped his beard.

The old boatman snorted and greeted people to start the boat.

Lu Yan saw it, smiled and waved his hand to He Mouse, who paddled without raising his head.

"What does he mean, I didn't short his boat money?" Lu Yan was not happy.

"...Don’t you know that our group is a big trouble in the eyes of others?" Moli helplessly, he found that the second prince’s brain was sometimes so good that sometimes he couldn’t turn, this kind of intractable disease, the body I can't do anything for the genius.

"Trouble?"

Lu Yan pointed at Mr. Jinshui blankly, "Isn't he alone in trouble?"

Moli was waiting to speak. In order to avoid Mr. Jinshui, the second prince lowered his voice and said, "Even if the looks are added, the doctor and Meng Guoshi are both troublesome and stand out from the crowd. It is easy to catch the eye. But what does it have to do with me? ?"

Mo Lei stopped talking, thinking that Lu Yan probably didn't realize that this metaphor meant that he was a chicken himself.

Meng Qi said relentlessly: "You will not hide your identity at all. Others are about to guess your old man. Since you are going to find a place to hide your name, you must be prepared to guard against other people's snooping. If it arouses suspicion. , I will report you to the government sooner or later."

Lu Yan opened his mouth, then bowed his head.

Meng Qi thought of Lu Yan's self-assured appearance in the cabin, and couldn't help but also be puzzled.

The fishy smell combined with the smell of horses, and the strange smell of grease smeared on the boat's board, even Meng Qi frowned when he smelled it.

However, the inner masters have their own methods.

Lu Yan actually looked like a okay person, directly interfering with the judgment of the old boatman.

This is incredible.

Meng Qi is puzzled, so I naturally have to ask to understand now.

Mo Li couldn't help but look over after hearing it.

As a result, Lu Yan looked around awkwardly and found that Mr. Jin Shui was frightened and still utterly unwilling. Then he whispered: "The doctor does not know the Chinese teacher. I have a reckless temperament. I was repeatedly said to be stubborn when I was reading and literate. The mother and concubine obeyed the emperor blindly. Whenever she felt that I caused trouble and didn’t listen to the training, she sent me to the small Buddhist hall in the palace and ordered to copy the scriptures. At first I even copied a copy, and then... anyway, I refused. Copy, the father was even more angry, so it was often closed for ten days and a half. The room was dark and airtight, and it was incense at first. The palace people didn’t put me in their eyes, ignored me, didn’t clean the house, even The toilet is changed every three days."

Lu Yan couldn’t say anything anymore. He coughed and said vaguely: “Let me tell you, the messy incense is mixed with people’s reincarnation, the smell is particularly terrible, and in the end I feel that my whole person is stinky. Yes, after I came out, everyone avoided me. After washing three times, I still smelled, but Dahuang brother didn’t dislike me... Hey, by the way, how do I let Dahuang brother know about this fraud case? Send it back in secret, I believe that Brother Dahuang will not let him be severely tortured."
