Return to Ming Dynasty as Prince: Three hundred and ten, the prince broke the law

A team of officers and soldiers, escorting a large sedan chair with a green niche, arrived in front of the office.

This team of officers and soldiers are all dressed up as wolf soldiers, but they wear the highest quality Pudao. They don’t look like Tusi and Min Zhuang. Such a unique team looks at the entire Chengdu. Only the imperial commissioner Yang beheads his head. There is no semicolon in this one.

However, this innocent Master Yang has been ridiculed as Yang's broom. It's no wonder when so many things happened to the Shu Wang Family family? But as soon as Yang Ling arrived in Sichuan, the elder son became a hostage to all of them. Zhu Xianger, the young princess who was about to be promoted to princess, almost died in the hands of the assassin.

Finally, this adult decided to drive back to Beijing. The Chengdu civil and military officials celebrated with each other and rushed to tell each other. With excitement, they went to the three-line and one-line meeting of his old man's reception, celebration, and farewell. As a result, he was accepted by the Bashu people as the first Zhu Rangjin, a talented son of Xuanyi, has become a murderer again. Who does he not broom?

I heard that the imperial envoy came, and Mr. Lu led the officials from the various departments in charge of punishment, punishment, servicing, and arrest. Yang Ling came to visit unexpectedly, but the envoy came so complete, obviously not Waiting for him specially. There was a murder case in the Shu Palace, and the suspect was the son of the Shu King. Naturally, Master Lu had to gather all his subordinates and prepare to solve the case all night long.

Great Ming, the six and thirteen provinces in the south, the north and the north, have all set up the Department of Prosecutors. The status is parallel to the minister of prosecutors. However, the rank of the prosecutors is one level lower than that of the chiefs. There are also several fourth-rank deputy envoys and fifth-rank local officials below. Now they are all crowded at the gate to pick them up.

"The junior officer has seen the imperial commissioner. If you have anything to do with the adult, just send someone to post the post. The junior officer must come to the door for inquiries. How dare the imperial commissioner drive here?" Lu Zheng smiled and arched his hands behind him. A bunch of officials also bowed and bowed, and bowed like manners. Like a group of monkeys eating.

Yang Ling faintly smiled and said: "Master Lu is busy with official duties. Today, there is a major event in the Shu Palace. The adults must be more busy. It seems that the officer interrupted." Yang Ling said here after a pause, and said: "My official Visited, said it was a business, but also a private matter, dare not work so many adults, Master Lu..."

"Oh?, oh, oh, yes, yes. The lower official understands that when I heard that the imperial commissioner has arrived, the official officials of the house will naturally go out to greet you? Adults please come in, let's talk in the study, and talk in the study." Lu The government knew what it meant, and quickly explained.

Yang Ling entered the office of the press officer, and as Lu Zheng entered the inner study, as soon as the guest and the host sat down, Yang Ling opened the door to the ground: "Master Lu. Your government handles the case. It is said that this official should not be involved. But the emperor ordered this official. Hunting around the world, visiting military, political, and local customs. The sons of the princes killed the daughters of the princes. This kind of case is no longer an ordinary prison, so the officer took the liberty to come to find out what happened, and hope that the adults will not be surprised. "

"This..., I am dissatisfied with the adults. The next official just sent someone to investigate the case. I haven't found any clues. There is really nothing to tell the adults." Lu Zheng was embarrassed.

Yang Ling smiled and said: "My lord has misunderstood. Although this official is an imperial commissioner, he is neither the plaintiff nor the close relative of the defendant. It is just that this matter involves two royal relatives. Since this is the right time for the meeting, the official should understand some circumstances. Otherwise, the emperor asks this matter, and the official asks three questions. Isn’t it a joke? The official has no intention of interfering in this case. Master Lu is so embarrassed that he will treat the official as a cudgel?"

When Yang Ling said so, Lu Zheng couldn't help being shocked, and he hurriedly stood up and waved his hands again and again: "My lord is serious, how dare to subordinate officials? How can subordinate officials think like this? He knows only limited knowledge. I don't know the circumstances of the case. I am ashamed. In reply to the adults, if the adults want to inquire about the situation of the case, please sit down, and the lower officials will tell the adults one by one."

The litigation stick is the litigator, who has been discriminated against since ancient times and regarded as a criminal by the government. The Tang law stipulates that once a person who commits a crime is caught and flogged for 50, if he makes a plan, he will be charged with a higher crime and imprisoned for three years. In the Song Dynasty, there was nothing worse than that. Every time before the conclusion of the case, the Yamen had to deal with the lawsuit.

When it came to Ming Dynasty, it was Zhu Chongba's turn to be the leader of the ox baby, and he even regarded the litigator as the culprit who caused trouble. He believed that "if there is no such person in the world, there is no need for government offices." When the government encounters the people who file a complaint, the first thing is to close the lawsuit, try to put the complaint down as much as possible, and write the pleadings and make ideas as the litigator. Isn't it an unstable element who specializes in adding chaos to the court?

So the lawsuit stick does not mean that they can speak eloquently and speak like a knife like a stick, but that once the person who is acting as a conspirator is known by the government, no matter what the situation is, he will fight first. A meal of water and fire sticks. Yang Ling helped Ma Ang in the lawsuit. If it weren't for Ma Yicheng, it would have been an official, and Minzhixian would be a law-blind person. He stupidly ran to the lobby, and if a good witness did not do it, he went to give advice to others. That would also be beaten.

Yang Ling laughs at herself as a litigation stick at the moment, obviously dissatisfied with Lu Zheng's prevarication. How can Lu Zheng dare to offend him with his power? Knowing that Yang Ling is trying to suppress others, he can only bite the bullet and say something against his heart.

Lu Zheng brought tea to the young man, and then he muttered: "The previous situation is known to the adults. After the official summoned two experienced head catchers, he went to the harem and asked. What happened. The next official knew that it was either by inquiring the relevant personnel or by investigating the head of the local government."

Yang Ling nodded and said: "This officer knows, please speak up, adults."

Lu Zhengdao: "At that time, there was a large banquet in the front hall, and the princesses and concubines in the harem also held banquets to entertain the royal family members, the princess of Chengping County, the princess of Huiping County, and the second daughter of the king of Jingqing County. The guests are here. There are some wives of ministers of civil and military affairs and the wives of chieftain chieftains who are there to accompany you. The wife of the official is one of them."

Lu Zheng thought for a while and said: "Because there are so many guests, the princess dresses up late, and all the elders present here, Miss Zhu Mengli thinks she feels boring, so she walks alone in the garden." /

He added: "Ms. Liu, who is in the side of the Shu King. She is the second prince's biological mother. She and the Princess of Jingqing County are sisters. The two families have always been close to each other. After the death of the Princess of Jingqing County, Miss Zhu became a frequent visitor of the Shu Palace. , Has always regarded this as a home as casually. So no one thinks it is different.

The next official asked the maids who were in charge of the waiters in Houyuan at that time. They had a constant flow of people back and forth from the dining room to the flower hall. Almost everyone had seen Miss Zhu take a self-portrait in the pool, she didn’t say anything, she seemed to be very different Happy. Later, she disappeared, and everyone didn't care too much.

When the banquet officially began, the princesses realized that Miss Zhu had not returned. At this time, the princess also arrived and volunteered to find Miss Zhu. As a result, a servant girl found Miss Zhu's body in the chrysanthemum bush behind the pool. "

Speaking of this, Lu Zheng was shocked and said, "The chrysanthemum bush is about half a person tall and the plants are very dense. Just after the green forest by the pool, Miss Zhu's apple was crushed and she threw it on. Among the chrysanthemums, lying on your back, overwhelming a piece of flowers in the middle. But if you don’t get closer, you can’t see the ground."

He took a breath and said, "If someone takes her elsewhere and kills her, she won't risk being discovered and then move her body back to the chrysanthemum bush, because there is no way to hide. Therefore, according to common sense, there is the murder scene.

Her body is in the depths of the chrysanthemum bush, a meter away from the side of the road, and the surrounding chrysanthemum flower path is not overwhelmed and broken, so it will not be moved in. It should be thrown directly after being killed. The corpse goes in. Judging from the position where the corpse was thrown, the murderer should be standing in the green forest. There is lush vegetation, unless you go to the front of the pool and look carefully into the forest, you will not find anyone standing there.

Although Ms. Zhu is light, she is tall and tall, no matter how big, she kills people quickly, and then throws into the flowers so far is impossible for ordinary people. In this way, the suspicion of the female guests and the servants in the harem of the palace is very few. The lower officials have asked the entrance guard in detail, and those who have been in and out of the harem during this period..."

He said here, he pushed a piece of paper and said: "Look, my lord, except for the servants in the harem, there are a total of 13 people coming and going, including the son, the second prince, the eunuch, the chief of the interior, and the six who have been transported. The little Huangmen of the congratulatory gift, the love daughter Yanran of the Tuoba Tusi of Xiaojinchuan, and Tang Jiashan, the chief guard of the palace. According to my investigation, among these people, only the first son, the second prince, and Tangjiashan can martial arts."

Yang Ling was very surprised when he heard it, and lost his voice: "The elder son can also martial arts?" Zhu Rangxu was polite and polite, and he never showed the appearance of martial arts. No wonder he was surprised.

Lu Zheng was startled at first, and then he smiled: "My lord thinks he is a weak scholar because he was taken hostage by others, and he didn't dare to show up in Jiusi City for a long time, right? What role can it play in the army? No matter how high the martial arts in the enemy's nest, I have to forbear it temporarily.

The descendants of Shu Wang Family have always been practicing literary and martial arts. The elder son is adept at bowing horses and has extremely high martial arts, but the elder son has a lofty identity, and martial arts is only for strengthening the body. "

In this era, literature is more important than martial arts. If a talented person is proficient in martial arts, he would rather show off a not-so-excellent poem, and be ashamed of showing outstanding martial arts, let alone the respect of the dignified son? Yang Ling nodded involuntarily.

Lu Zhengdao: "The elder son has a respectable status, but it is a matter of life, and he did not dare to indulge himself, so the elder son was also listed as one of the suspects. Among the three, Tang guard has the ability to kill. However, there is a huge difference in status and status. It is difficult for him to use any reason to make Miss Zhu honour noble, and talk with him in the back of the forest. Unless he walks to the pool and sees Miss Zhu, he immediately drags her to Lin by force without saying anything. After strangling to death, then throwing the body.

There is always a reason to kill. What kind of grudges does a military attaché of a royal palace have with such distinguished daughters as the niece of the king of Shu and the daughter of the king of the county? Moreover, after investigation by the lower officials, Tang Shiwei was an upright official, dedicated to his duties, and was neither greedy for money nor lustful.

The rewards given to him by the princes and concubines, he was scattered among the brothers in the guards, and he never teased the handsome maidservants in the palace with outstanding appearance, and even if the palace maids took the initiative to tease, they would run away blushing and unsmiling. , Both honest and dull, this person's suspicion is the least. "

He said here, he paused and said: "As the elder son, plus the family relationship with Miss Zhu, if you want to kill Miss Zhu in the short forest, you can It can be done. But why would he do this?

Today is the period of the king's retreat. The prince must have already known, today's banquet, although the emperor's edict has not yet been issued, but he is actually the king of Bashu. Even if there are personal grievances, wouldn't it be easier for a prince to become a prince?

At that time, even if it was verified that he committed the murder, there was no edict from the emperor. No one can bring him to justice, and even if the emperor knows it, he can at best put him out of confinement, and he won't want a prince to pay his life. What reason does he have to kill and throw his corpse so impatiently? "

Yang Ling muffled: "Then the second prince has a reason to kill?"

"No, there is no reason, but there is evidence."

Yang Ling couldn't help being dumb and intervening in the judicial system, which was originally contradictory in his heart. At present, it is true that Zhu Rangjin is the most suspicious. Can he ignore this and force Lu Zheng to release others? Besides, the place of death is not ordinary people. The daughter of the princess died in the palace. Who has the energy to suppress it? Even him. also can not.

Lu Zhengdao: "Ms. Zhu opened her eyes wide after her death, her face was full of surprise and inexplicable expression, as if she did not believe that the murderer would kill her until she died. During the autopsy, the head catcher in this house found her right fist clenched. There seems to be something in her hand. It took a lot of twists and turns to take out the jade pendant until she broke her finger. If it is said to be soiled and framed. How can the stuffed in after death be held so tightly?"

Latest

Yang Ling suddenly laughed and said: "With the martial arts of the second prince, if you want to strangle a woman, will you leave a token of your own?"

Master Lu said slowly: "My lord, martial arts can't solve everything. If the two young masters of the Maitreya cult talk about martial arts, they are ten times stronger than the adults, but the adults are tied to the pillars. Didn't they seriously hurt this cult monster?

Because there is no evidence now, the officials dare not conclude that the second prince murdered. Only listed him as the biggest suspect. However, high skill cannot be a reason for exemption. After all, Miss Zhu is his close relative, and she is in the kind of place where people may pass by at any time. If the second prince suddenly intends to kill for some reason, she must be flustered and eager to die. If Miss Zhu took off the jade pendant from his waist while struggling, she might not be able to discover that practicing martial arts by listening to six directions and seeing all directions was originally an exaggeration. Under the rush, the sharpness of the eyes and ears would be greatly reduced. "

Yang Ling took a breath and was speechless for a while. If he hadn’t been in the barracks with Zhu Rangjin for more than a month, and had some understanding of the second prince’s character, behavior and behavior, and replaced him with Yang Ling as the guardian, then there is no doubt that he would definitely take the second prince. As the most suspicious person. Now it supports his belief that Zhu Rangjin is not a murderer. It is only his understanding of Zhu Rangjin’s character. Can this reason be used as evidence?

Could the murderer be among these three? The elder son knows martial arts. I don’t know that all the people and guests in the harem of the king of Shu are either rich or noble. For them, martial arts is also nothing to show off. Is there no one here to hide it?

Yang Ling suddenly remembered that when the Dudu Village was wiped out, the Aou who guarded Wududu was a woman, but she was as powerful as a cow, and a steel fork in her hand rose up. She beat her husband Liu Lang, brave and brave, and couldn't help saying: "Anyone of those chieftains can martial..."

Lu Zheng looked at him sympathetically, and sighed slightly: "My lord, even if those chieftains are able to kill Miss Zhu cleanly even if they are martial arts, how can they get the jade pendant of the second prince? Don't worry, adults. It is such a serious matter that the officials dare not vaguely deal with the innocent. Although the second prince is still in custody, he is still suspected of murder. This case must be investigated and filed with an adult."

Yang Ling nodded, shook his head again, sighed in dismay, and stood up and said: "This is the best. I've bothered Master Lu for so long, and I'm leaving now."

"Respectfully send the imperial commissioner", Lu Zheng reached the ground, Yang Ling's ceremonial guard left the chaser yamen, and hurried back to the hall mightily.

Yang Ling was sitting in the sedan chair, feeling very irritable. What he learned from Lu Zheng only pointed all the suspicions closer to Zhu Rangjin. Could Zhu Rangjin really be the murderer? The reason? He is not a lunatic, what is the reason for killing?

Yang Ling has a headache. He has dealt with fierce tartars, cunning and savage Japanese pirates and pirates, a well-disciplined Western navy, dangerous and stubborn barbarians and rebellious, Maitreya and Banzhou bandits. He has all dealt with them. Facing a headless case now, it is really helpless.

Fighting, it is clear that the enemy and the enemy, and the barriers are strong. But now there is no opponent at all, everyone can be a murderer!

Yang Ling suddenly opened the car curtain, and Wu Hanchao immediately drove the horse closer, leaning over and saying: "My lord."

Yang Ling whispered: "Immediately send someone to notify Liu Biao and tell him not to return to Beijing. I want him to check a few people for me."

"Yes, I will send someone here at the end. Which ones do you want to check?"

"Check...", which is not suspicious? The names circled in Yang Ling's heart, and he finally sighed and said: "I'd better call him to see me, in a few words, I can't explain it clearly."

"My lord, Mr. Lu, my imperial commissioner has gone," the Luo branch pulled at Lu Zheng's sleeve and whispered. The Luo branch is called Luo Shanning. The Wu Shi of the fifth grade, who concurrently served as Baoning's sub-district patrol, was called by the people and ordinary people in the Yamen as the branch master.

Lu Zheng frowned and was thinking about something. When he was pulled by the Luo branch, he realized that he was still standing in front of the yamen. He hurriedly called: "Come on. Get ready for the sedan chair and go to the palace immediately. Hurry!"

The official sedan lifted out of the yamen, Lu Zheng straightened the black gauze, and hurriedly got into the sedan chair. Towards the other end of the alley, he hurried away.

In the Palace of the King of Shu, Zhu Binhan was lying on the couch with a pale face. Zhu Rangxu took a bowl of dark concoction, tasted it first, and tested the temperature. Only then did Zhu Rangxu help his father and feed him mouthfuls of medicine.

Zhu Binhan took a few sips, then shook his head hard, and sighed: "How can this be? How can this be?"

Zhu Rangxu whispered: "Father, please rest assured and don't get too excited. The boy never believes that the second brother will do this kind of thing, this must be someone planted to blame."

"Yes! This must be someone deliberately framed the second brother, the father shouldn't let Master Lu take the second brother away." Zhu Xianger both felt sorry for her good sister Zhu Mengli, but also fought the injustice for her second brother Zhu Rangjin. Said.

Zhu Binhan gave a wry smile, shook his head and said: "The prince breaks the law and commits the same crime with the common people. If he really does such a great evil, he will never tolerate it. What about Jingqing County King?"

Zhu Rangxu and the little princess looked at each other, and then said: "The princess is very sad, and my son has helped Wang Shu to rest in the guest house."

Looking at the expressions of the two of them, King Shu knew that King Jingqing must have come to make a big noise when he was fainted. He didn't know how the two brothers and sisters persuaded them to leave. He sighed and said: "Our family has been troubled this year, alas! I hope Lu Zheng can make the case clear soon. Although Jin'er is not a good tool, he has no reason to kill Mengli's child..."

At this moment, a wrinkled old **** walked in like a cat and said in a low voice, "Master, please ask Master Lu to see you."

"Oh? asked him to come in, no, no, Xiao Lingzi, please, please go to me." King Shu struggled to sit up, his eyes widened and eagerly said.

The old **** was gray-haired and wrinkled. He was more than twenty years older than the king of Shu, but his name was younger. He promised, and his feet were like running water, floating away.

After a moment of effort, he led Lu Zheng back in a hurry. As soon as Lu Zheng entered the house, he hurriedly said: "Xiaguan Lu Zheng has seen the prince."

"Exempt gifts and exempt gifts, Lord Lu, what is the point of the case?"

Lu Zheng hesitated to say something, and glanced to the left and right, King Shu knew, hurriedly said: "Go out, you all go out, Xiao Lingzi, stay at the door alone."

The imperial doctors and maids who waited in the room retreated one after another. Zhu Rangxu put the Jinquilt behind his father, winked at the princess, and walked out the door. Zhu Xianger wrinkled his nose, the boss did not He gave Lu Zheng a convincing look, then lifted his chin and strode out.

Little Lingzi closed the door and stood towards the door, with her big sleeves hanging down, as if she was asleep but not asleep. The thin figure was like a pattern cut out on the door. It would be difficult if you didn't look closely. Notice his presence.

"How's it going, can you find some clues?" King Shu asked tremblingly.

Although I don’t usually look down on this young son who is self-proclaimed and unfair, he is his own flesh and blood after all. Besides, the Shu king’s line has always been virtuous and respectful. In Qi, Xiang, Ning, Dai and other Fans Wang Family, some dog skins fell on the stove. This is good, now that his son has become a murderer, and the murderer is still the daughter of the county king, but Shu Wang Family has a big eye.

Lu Zheng cautiously said: "My lord, there are too few clues about this matter. The official is under investigation and there is no clear news yet, but... he did an autopsy and found one thing, the official felt that the matter was serious. , You should... first play the prince Ming."

The king of Shu's eyes lit up and said anxiously: "Don't hesitate, talk quickly, what else did you find?"

Lu Zheng still hesitated and said: "Uh... this... did not discover... that..."

The king of Shu's face flushed red, he beat the bed hard, and said sharply: "What did you find?"

Lu Zheng lowered his head. Quickly said: "I found Miss Zhu is pregnant, and it has been more than two months!"

Latest

The little Lingzi, who seemed to be sleeping outside the door, couldn't help but shake his body when he heard the news, his eyes opened, and a sharp light flashed across his eyes. The King of Shu has completely ossified. After a while, his body shivered uncontrollably: "There is...has a body...pregnant? That's it, beast! Beast! Beast! Rebellious beast! He...he and his clan sister... …"

The king of Shu's body weakened, and he was suddenly planted on the silk quilt, so that Lu Zheng hurriedly stepped forward to support him. Repeatedly said: "The prince, this... can't prove that he is the second prince. The next official has ordered his workers to strictly observe the secret. This matter needs to be investigated in detail..."

The king of Shu smiled miserably: "Isn't he who else? His mother and Princess Jingqing are a compatriot, the two of them have been in close contact with each other in the first place. I just can't think of it, I can't think of it. Rebelling against human relationships and embarrassing ancestors, my god, the honour of the eighth generation of the king of Shu is all ruined in the hands of this rebellious and unfilial beast."

Lu Zheng murmured: "My lord, he has been in prison for a lifetime, and he has encountered any bizarre cases. At present, the evidence can not prove it... It’s good to rely on facts..."

The king of Shu walked with two lines of tears, and said miserably: "Check? What else can be checked? King Shu, hahaha, king of virtue, my family is about to become the laughingstock of the whole world. What kind of face does such a son have to meet the ancestors under Jiuquan!"

The king of Shu was heartbroken, his face became paler, and Lu Zheng was so horrified that he held him back and said: "The prince should calm down, take care of your precious body, prince..."

Outside the door, a tall and fat man walked over angrily. The guards followed hesitantly. They wanted to stop but didn't dare to stop. Obviously, this person had a good status and was not offended by them.

He strode to the door, but the small Lingzi suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him, whispering quietly: "Jingqing County King, please stay, the prince is not convenient to see guests now!"

"I'm pooh!" Jingqing County King spit on his face: "Dog Minion~IndoMTL.com~You also have your turn to take care of my Zhu family? Get out of here, isn't he awake? I only want him, a virtuous king, to pay me justice and my daughter's life!"

Xiao Lingzi didn't wipe his face, but still said indifferently: "The county king calms down. No one can enter without the prince's order. Please come back."

The Jingqing County Wang Da roared and grabbed Xiao Lingzi by the collar. He was fat and big, and he was as thin and slender as Xiao Lingzi and could hold two, but he grabbed the collar hard. As soon as it was pulled, Xiao Lingzi did not move like a nail that was driven down.

Jingqing County Wang Da was angry and waved his palms about to fight, but at this time there was a weak voice from the King of Shu: "Is it the King of Jingqing? Xiao Lingzi, please come in."

With a sound of "clang", the King Jingqing brought a gust of wind into the house, panting, Shu King Zhu Binhan lay on the brocade, closed his eyes for a moment, and whispered, "Master Lu, thank you Come and tell me about the matter, go back to your house immediately. The news about the situation must be tightly controlled, and it must not be spread out. Definitely! Definitely."

"Yes!" Lu Zheng got up, folded his hands, and exited the door. The door creaked slowly. He straightened up, and the moment the door was closed, he saw Lord Shu open from the gap. In the eyes, the chill is as cold as ice, a piece of despair......
