Kou Ji asked again: "How did Li Gong handle it?"
Liu Heng said: "Li Gong sent someone to condense the corpse of that house and sent it to Kaifeng Mansion, asking Kaifeng Mansion to investigate the matter."
"How did the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture respond?"
"The prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture just sent people to conquer the bones and send them back to their hometowns, but did not pursue them."
"..."
Kou Ji pondered for a long time and sneered: "Princess Deng Guo, she really has a lot of prestige."
Liu Heng clicked his mouth and said with emotion: "The eight daughters of Taizong, there are only two alive now, the first emperor and the officials rarely embarrass them, they are naturally at ease."
Kou Ji frowned and said, "The lessons of King Chu and the Eight Kings are not enough? Princess Deng Guo dare to jump out."
Liu Heng sighed, "Not only Princess Deng, but also Princess Ji is about to move."
Kou Ji coldly snorted: "A former Enzhou Zhizhou hanged at the door of Li's mansion, and it was not enough to bring down Gong Li. What other means did they prepare?"
Liu Heng shook his head and said, "I didn't find out the people under my staff, nor did Wu Desi's people find out."
Kou Ji raised his brows, "Mu Desi has been built?"
When Liu Heng heard this, he said a little sadly: "In order to prepare for the establishment of Wu Desi, the official has spared nearly 60% of the elite of our Imperial City Division. Naturally, it will soon be completed."
Kou Ji sighed, "Don't complain. Although your Imperial City Division's power has been cut by 60%, this matter may not be a good thing for you."
Liu Heng nodded slowly.
Kou Ji asked again: "Who is Wu Desi?"
Liu Heng shook his head.
Kou Ji wondered: "It's so mysterious, you haven't even seen it?"
Liu Heng nodded.
Kou Ji suspiciously said: "Could it be that the officials have not yet established the military and moral department."
Liu Heng shook his head and said, "It has been established."
Kou Ji said unexpectedly: "Since you haven't seen him, why do you know that Wu Desi has already set up Wu Desi."
Liu Heng looked at Kou Ji and said, "He handed me a few documents. The handwriting on the documents is very characteristic and others cannot imitate them."
Kou Ji nodded thoughtfully, "In that case, this person hides quite deep."
Liu Heng nodded in agreement.
Kou Ji ordered: "Let your people pay close attention to the movements of the two eldest princesses."
Liu Heng looked at Kou Ji in amazement and said, "Fourth brother, do you plan to take action too?"
Kou Ji shook his head, "Gong Li won't let me intervene in this matter. All I can do is help Li Gong stop the trouble."
Liu Heng nodded and said, "I will send people to pay attention."
After a pause, Liu Heng glanced at Kou Ji with some embarrassment.
Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment, "Is there anything else?"
Liu Heng laughed in a low voice: "Fourth brother, the girl in your family, can someone else be allowed?"
Kou Ji's eyes widened in astonishment, "What and what? When did I have a girl?"
Liu Heng laughed and said, "I can hear people say that my wife is pregnant with a girl, and the official is interested in marrying you, but you refused. Do you want to consider my baby
Let me tell you, my baby, it's the same every day.
At a young age, he has grown chubby, and he must be a good guy one by one in the future.
We will be able to protect our niece. "
Kou Ji stood up at the table, "Go away! The child is not born yet, who can tell whether it is a male or a female."
Liu Heng was taken aback, but he was not afraid. He stood up and said, "Four brothers, when the wife is born and confirmed that she is a girl, let's get married."
"roll!"
Kou Ji yelled.
Liu Heng smiled and left the courtyard of the Kou Mansion.
Kou Ji grunted and said, "That doggie was spreading rumors to me outside."
Kou Ji scolded for a long time, and sent someone to the Li Mansion House, where he was told the news that Liu Heng had given him, and Li Di was informed.
Just returned to the backyard.
Just listened to the servant, saying that Cao Tong had arrived.
Kou Ji rushed to the main hall to see Cao Tong.
When I saw Cao Tong.
Cao Chu immediately got up and leaned forward, and hurriedly asked: "Fourth brother, can your girl give you the yellow-haired son of Liu Heng's family?"
The son of Liu Heng's family was born to the younger sister of Liu Heng and An Ziluo.
A mixed race.
The hair has grown, and it is somewhat yellowish.
Therefore, Cao Tong used to call Liu Heng's son Huangfa's son.
Kou Ji's face turned black at once.
"My wife hasn't given birth yet? Who told you that my wife was pregnant with a girl?"
Regardless of Kou Ji's ugly face, Cao Yu dragged Kou Ji and said, "You tell me first, are your daughters allowed?"
Kou Ji's face was even darker, "I haven't had a birth, and there is no division between men and women. How to make people?!"
Cao Yu let out a sigh of relief, "That's good... That's good... Just now I heard people say in Bianjing that when Liu Heng arrived at your house, I rushed over. I was afraid that Liu Heng would snatch my son. daughter in law."
Kou Ji gritted his teeth, "Who told you that my wife is carrying a girl in her belly?"
Cao Qi stared at Kou Ji in amazement, "Don't you know?"
Kou Ji frowned and said, "What do you know?"
Cao Yu said earnestly: "The officials who asked the Qin Tianjian to do the calculations have calculated that Zhang Jieyu's belly is the dragon, and the wife's wife is pregnant with the girl.
This matter is now spread in every family.
If it weren't for the official's intention to reveal that you want to marry you, I'm afraid that the person who proposes will cross the threshold of your Kou Mansion.
I also knew from the queen that you didn't promise to marry the official family, so you ran to help my son propose marriage. "
When Kou Ji heard these words, there was an urge to go into the palace and find Zhao Zhen to ask for an explanation.
Kou Ji stared at Cao Tong and said viciously: "Do you have a son?"
When Cao Yu heard this, he said with a serious face: "Since knowing that my wife is pregnant, I have taken in eight concubines in one go. Now three concubines have successfully conceived. One of them will be a son."
"You get out!"
Kou Ji yelled.
Cao Yu did not leave. Instead, he swore a curse: "Fourth brother, rest assured, as long as one of my concubines gives birth to a son, I will report my fourth uncle and record him as a concubine.
All my future will be inherited by him.
Surely your daughter will not be wronged. "
"roll!"
Kou Ji pointed to the door and shouted.
Cao Tong was not angry either.
"Then I'll come back..."
Cao Yu left Kou Mansion with a smile.
Kou Ji angrily stomped his feet in the main hall.
No wonder Kou Zhun would encourage him to take a concubine before.
It's no wonder that Zhao Zhen's words scorchingly said that Xiang Yan was a girl.
It turned out that the group of guys in the Qintian Prison were playing tricks.
"Come on!"
Kou Ji shouted while standing in the main hall.
Immediately a servant appeared in front of him.
"What's the command from Young Master?"
Kou Ji gritted his teeth and said: "Take my waist card to the Qintian Supervisor and tell the officials of the Qingtian Supervisor that if you dare to talk about the children in the wife's belly, I will knock out their front teeth."
"Hey..."
"..."
Kou Ji sent someone to warn officials of the Qin Tianjian.
The officials of the Qintian Supervisor didn't say anything.
But what the officials of the Qin Tianjian have said before are already known to everyone in the city.
After Liu Heng and Cao Tong left the house.
Someone keeps coming to tentatively.
Ask if Kou Ji has agreed to marry someone else.
Kou Ji took the trouble and thanked the guests behind closed doors.
Time flies.
It's early November.
Xiang Yan's stomach was as big as a ball, round and round, and seemed to be broken in the next second.
Kou Ji looked scared.
Do nothing every day.
Carefully wait on Xiang Yan's side.
He does not leave the house.
But the mess outside the house became a pot of porridge.
Li Di forcefully implemented the decree to reduce the false positions of the civil and military leaders of the Manchu Dynasty.
From the beginning to the end.
Annoyed everyone.
Entering into September.
Someone made a fierce move.
When Li Di was going to court, someone killed him in front of Li Di's carriage.
Some people even chewed with Guanyin clay in front of Li Di.
Li Di's fame became inaudible overnight.
At the end of September.
The Li Mansion in Bianjing City was burnt to ashes.
Now only a piece of scorched earth remains.
After entering October.
Someone started to assassinate Li Di.
Li Di encountered nearly six assassinations in one day.
Zhao Zhen Lei Ting was furious.
Order Kaifeng Mansion and the Criminal Department to investigate this matter strictly.
Unfortunately, after investigating for more than half a month, nothing has been found.
Mid-October.
Princess Deng Guo and Princess Ji entered the palace together, crying to Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen withstood the pressure, and did not promise to return their husbands and heirs to their false jobs.
After the two eldest princesses left the palace, they blocked the Donghua gate.
When Li Di entered the court, they stopped him.
Relying on their distinguished identities, they forced Li Di to bend and stand at the gate of Donghua for a full half day.
In the end, Wang Zeng came forward and berated the two eldest princesses for their unkind behavior, and then forced them back.
Early November.
A scandal happened in Bianjing.
In the case of Li Di under the same school, he accidentally drunk into Zuo Zhengyan's Qian Chengyi's residence and insulted his wife and daughter.
Qian Chengyi's wife and daughter committed suicide in grief.
Qian Chengyi reported Li Di to the imperial court.
For a time, the Manchu dynasty civil servants wrote letters, asking to kill Li Di.
After Kou Ji listened to Liu Heng's narration at the mansion, he clashed on the table.
"impossible!"
Liu Heng smiled bitterly: "Nothing is impossible..."
Kou Ji glared: "Gong Li wouldn't do such a thing."
Liu Heng sighed and said, "The suffering master has been reported to the imperial court."
Kou Ji said indignantly: "How can Li Gong be an upright person, how could he forcibly deceive other people's wives and daughters? It is obvious that someone has framed Li Gong."
Liu Heng sighed: "When you were a civil and military man, you didn’t know what kind of person Li Gong was? Manchu civil and military all knew that someone was framing Li Gong, but they all pretended to be deaf and dumb, and no one was willing to speak for Li Gong. ."
Kou Ji gritted his teeth and said, "Could it be impossible to find out?"
Liu Heng sighed and said: "It's really unclear... Unless the person who framed Li Gong confessed. But even if the person who framed Li Gong confessed, Li Gong's name is ruined."
Liu Heng glanced at Kou Ji and said mournfully: "Four brother, you should be clear, this kind of thing is unclear."
Kou Ji sat down with a gloomy face and said, "I know..."
Recorded in historical books.
The famous Ouyang Xiu was planted on this kind of thing.
He obviously didn't do anything, but was put on the hat of having an affair with his niece.
The huge reputation was ruined.
As the leader of the literary world, Ouyang Xiu couldn't solve this kind of thing.
Li Di has now become a rat crossing the street, let alone resolve the matter.
Kou Ji was silent for a long time, staring at Liu Heng and asked, "Can you let Qian Chengyi tell the truth?"
Liu Heng shook his head sadly, "Qian Chengyi was recommended by the princess mansion, what do you think?"
Kou Ji pondered: "What about torture?"
Liu Heng frowned and said, "It's a bit difficult... Now that Qian Chengyi has become a person of concern in Bianjing, I can't take him away, and I can't torture him.
Unless the official orders.
But it is impossible for officials to give such orders. "
Kou Ji got up, "I'll go to the official to order."
As soon as Kou Ji got up, he saw Kou Zhong rushing to the main hall in a hurry.
"Little Master, Zuo Zhengyan Qian Chengyi killed him outside the Donghua Gate. Now the officials have made an order to summon all civil and military officials into the court."
After Kou Zhong entered the main hall, he whispered to report.
Kou Ji squinted, "Death has no proof, what a ruthless method."
"Go and fetch my court clothes, I want to enter the palace, and I will meet these people for a while."
"..."
Liu Heng got up and said to Kou Ji: "Then I will go back to the Imperial City Department first. If there are other troubles, I will send someone to tell you."
Kou Ji nodded.
Liu Heng left the Kou Mansion.
After Kou Ji changed into court uniform, he rushed to the palace.
After entering the palace.
I saw the Manchu dynasty, civil and military gathered in the arched hall.
In the center of the hanging arch hall, a corpse is placed.
That should be Qian Chengyi's corpse.
In addition to the corpses of Manchu Wenwu and Qian Chengyi, there were also two women, with a group of eunuchs and maids, sitting under the imperial steps.
Both of them are about the age of about 50, and they are very graceful in costumes.
At this moment, he was sitting at the Imperial Order and sipping tea with a arrogant expression.
Kou Ji snorted when he saw this scene, and walked towards where he stood.
His snort was a bit loud, which attracted the attention of Princess Deng and Ji Guo.
Princess Deng Guoda glanced at him, and said indifferently: "The official prestige of the prince's department is so big, but when he saw this palace, she didn't show any courtesy."
Kou Ji curled his lips and said faintly: "As far as I know, since the death of King Chu, the officials have laid down rules that female relatives are not allowed to enter the Suigong Hall to participate in politics.
So in this hanging arch hall, the only one who can make me bend down is the official. "
Upon hearing this, Princess Deng Guo raised her phoenix eyebrows and snorted coldly: "This palace is the aunt of the official family. Emperor Taizong and Emperor Xian allowed this palace to enter the vertical arch hall."
Kou Ji glanced at her and said calmly: "The Emperor Taizong and the first emperor, do you have permission to participate in politics?"
Princess Deng Guoda was suddenly speechless and stared at Kou Ji with annoyance.
Grand Princess Ji patted the case around her, and shouted angrily: "Presumptuous! As a minister, this is how you talk to the emperor sister of this palace."
Princess Deng Guoda took the words and said: "You are disrespectful to this palace, and this palace will ask the official to dismiss you from office."
Kou Ji glanced at the two of her, and said indifferently: "When I leave the Chui Gong Hall, I naturally respect them. But in this Chui Gong Hall, I respect only one official."
Princess Dengguo gritted her teeth and said: "I don't want to sit in the seat of Cao Shangshu, the official official in this palace."
Kou Ji stared at Princess Deng Guo and asked, "Is the Princess going to replace the officials and deal with the officials?"
Princess Deng Guoda was about to speak.
Just listen to Kou Ji continue: "Princess Dengguo, deliberately stealing the imperial power, her heart can be condemned."
When Princess Deng Guoda heard this, she was annoyed. She gritted her teeth and said: "Kou Ji, are you going to be an enemy of this palace?!"
