The early morning shows the light it should have. The hard-working vendors listened to the crow of cocks, looked at the still dark sky above their heads, and started their day's work.
A young man hurriedly put on his clothes, tied his belt, and ran towards the store in a hurry, fearing that the bitter and mean boss lady would find an excuse to deduct his wages if he was late.
At this moment, he suddenly froze and looked at the pool of blood in front of him. His mouth opened in surprise, his expression was dazed, and he was speechless.
This this…
A sharp and pitiful scream came from the quiet alley.
"Ah! Killing! Killing! Help!"
As they ran all the way, the surrounding residents woke up one after another, listening to the unclear but very sad screams, cursing and saying what kind of crazy boy this was, not sleeping so early in the morning and disturbing others, while curious When he opened the door and saw the bright blood stains, his expression suddenly changed.
"Ah! Killing! So much blood, so much blood!"
After a while, this originally quiet alley suddenly became crowded. The more people there were, the more courageous they were. Looking at the man lying head down in a pool of blood, he gained some confidence and started talking to each other. Discussed. The alley suddenly became noisy, attracting more people to stop and watch the excitement.
The people in the government were also alarmed, and a large number of officers and soldiers immediately dispatched to surround the alley. Driving the crowd away, they investigated the deceased.
However, after some investigation, the results were shocking.
The deceased was a prince and a prince. The second son of Junyuan Hou Mansion, Wang Ergou.
(Well, I was too upset to choose a name. Personally, I think Wang Ergou is a good name. Well, isn’t it said that it’s easy to make a living with a crooked name? Well, it’s easy to make a living!)
If you are an ordinary person, you will die if you die. After all, the capital seems to be peaceful and peaceful, but when night falls, all the filth comes to the world with the night. Such things have long been commonplace.
For example, drunkards got into fights, or various factions fought and killed people. It was considered a small fight, but this time, it was extremely serious.
In the eyes of the government, a dead person is not scary. What is scary is the person's identity.
The young master of the Junyuan Marquis Mansion. As the saying goes, all the maids in the Prime Minister's Mansion are fifth-rank officials. Although this young master is a concubine, he is also the biological son of the old Marquis, isn't he
All in all, in one sentence, we are in big trouble now.
The government immediately sent people to investigate the cause of the death of Mr. Wang Ergou. At the same time, he immediately reported the matter and sent people to inform the people in the Junyuan Mansion. After all, a son in the prince's manor could not be found dead in the wilderness. So for the old prince, Say, it's an insult, isn't it
The superiors made a decision quickly and went door-to-door to interrogate and search, investigating whether Wang Ergou had made enemies with anyone in the past month. Their seriousness was the most serious in history.
This investigation yielded the answer almost effortlessly.
On the night when Wang Ergou was killed, he went to Moshang Xiangfang and took away a dancer, but was stopped by Dusha, and the two got into a verbal dispute.
I'm afraid no one doesn't know who Dusha is. In the past month, after dinner and tea in the capital, there has been news about this woman. Her mystery is shocking.
This matter is actually related to that woman, which is very difficult to handle... It is said that that woman is someone whom His Highness the Third Highness values, and she even lived in His Highness's residence for half a month... What will happen during this period is on everyone's mind. The center of replenishment is well understood;
It’s just that in today’s world, where scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, the rich are inferior to the powerful, the second son of the Junyuan Marquis Mansion died, and Dusha is the biggest suspect...
There is no doubt that all the evidence points directly to Dusha. There is a motive. There was a quarrel that night, and neither of them liked each other. In terms of personality, Dusha is the kind of person who is not afraid of big things. This can be seen and supported by the trouble in the Zaifu Mansion.
As for the old Marquis, he immediately came to Fu Yi's house in Kyoto and put pressure on him personally to bring the murderer to justice.
This Kyoto Prefect is also a double-dealer. On the one hand, he immediately sent someone to inform He Lianheng secretly, and on the other hand, he nodded and bowed to the old Marquis and made promises. He looked as if he had met his biological father.
The group of people rushed towards Moshang Xiangfang in a mighty manner. The expression on the old Marquis's face made it look as if he would chop Dusha into pieces if he saw her. Along the way, Kyoto Fuyi even carefully apologized, for fear of offending the old marquis.
Master, if you get angry and do it to yourself first, then he will be finished...
When the old Marquis Junyuan arrived at Moshang Xiangfang, by coincidence, He Lianheng got off his horse and was about to approach Moshang Xiangfang. The Kyoto Fuyi was very surprised and said something stupid.
"Your Highness, why are you here so soon? My people have just been sent out. You are too fast..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the Kyoto Prefecture Yidun felt that he had lost his words. He turned around and saw that the powerful Marquis Junyuan was glaring at him angrily.
A few drops of cold sweat fell from Kyoto Fu Yi's forehead, and he tried his best to squeeze out a few smiles. He looked at Junyuan Hou and tried to explain. The old Marquis snorted coldly and simply ignored his presence and looked at him intently. He Lianheng not far away.
"Your Highness, you are well." The old Marquis looked at He Lianheng with a gloomy face and said in a sinister tone.
The Marquis Junyuan can be regarded as a lord with some status in the capital. Although he has no achievements that can be used to show off in his life, he is still very stingy and his flaws must be repaid. But when he was young, he blocked the sword for the old emperor. Otherwise, the old emperor would have escaped death. It was precisely because of this that even though Marquis Junyuan's military exploits were mediocre, the old emperor felt his kindness and gave him the title of Marquis. He was repaying the favor.
In this way, this Marquis Junyuan is also the savior of the current emperor. Even if Helian Henggui is the prince and has a distinguished status, he is still a generation behind when facing this Marquis Junyuan and needs to be treated respectfully. .
When a person lives, he has a face and a reputation.
Although I knew in my heart that Lord Junyuan was coming with bad intentions, I still had to follow the proper etiquette. I bowed respectfully to Lord Junyuan and He Lianheng greeted him politely. "Master Junyuan, you are in good health."
"Hmph, Kang Jian's shit!" The old Marquis snorted very domineeringly, looked at He Lianheng, and said even more sinisterly.
"I'm not mad at you juniors. Even if I'm lucky, it's useless even if you come forward to plead for mercy today. That little girl killed my son. No matter what, I have to pay for my son's life. This broken place, You have to serve it directly!"
After the old marquis said this, he grabbed the collar of Kyoto Fuyi very domineeringly and threatened fiercely.
"Why don't you take your people and seize this Moshang Xiangfang for me?"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Kyoto Fuyi's face was sprayed with saliva by the old Marquis, but she did not dare to wipe herself in front of him. She was very confused for a moment and looked at He for help. Lian Heng.
However, He Lianheng continued to ignore him. Look directly at the old Marquis.
"Master Hou, this matter has not been clarified yet. It would be a bit rash for Master Hou to do this."
The old Marquis snorted coldly, immediately highlighting his majesty.
"Hasty? What does it mean to be hasty? My son is dead. Do you know that my son is dead or killed? I just closed her shop? Let me tell you, I not only want to close her shop Shop, and let her kneel in front of my son’s mourning hall and die to apologize!”
A lot of yelling, and a lot of spitting and spitting stars everywhere.
He Lianheng's face darkened, and the forced smile on his face disappeared.
In the capital, he had long heard of a very "unruly and domineering" old marquis who was extremely defensive, greedy and lustful, and also liked to bully others. The fight is nothing more than the title of "savior:". He just heard about it accidentally but never saw it. He Lianheng only thought it was an exaggeration, but he never thought that when he saw it today, it was indeed well-deserved.
"Old Marquis, the matter has not been investigated clearly, so it is inevitably unfair to make such an arbitrary decision. Why don't the old Marquis bring Dusha in for questioning first, and ask clearly what happened, and then make a final decision before it is too late. According to what my nephew knows, Nadusha, although she is a bit bolder, she is not a person who does things based on her head, so please be careful, Mr. Marquis."
What he said was already a sign of being inferior, and he even called himself his nephew. You know, what is He Lianheng's identity? The Queen's biological son, the Emperor's favorite prince, could become his uncle. It was a very honorable matter. If it were placed on other people, let alone a prince, even a prince would have to give He Lianheng To save some face, he controlled his emotions and did not dare to offend He Lianheng too much.
But who is Lord Junyuan? Back then, he was the one who went to the palace for the sake of Junzhi.
When he saved the enemy, the emperor named him Marquis Weiyuan. This name sounded domineering and was in line with his bravery. However,
But Marquis He Najunyuan didn't buy it at all. I just felt that the word "wei" was not too vulgar, and I felt that he was extraordinary handsome. He needed to use a handsome word to highlight his identity. He even met with the emperor directly and begged the emperor to replace Marquis Weiyuan with Marquis Junyuan. Lord.
At that time, the entire palace felt dumbfounded and secretly scolded this man for being really ignorant. The old emperor was also dumbfounded for a moment, but this was not a very big deal. Thinking of his meritorious service in rescuing the emperor, the old emperor nodded in agreement. It satisfied his little vanity.
With a cold snort, the old Marquis raised his posture even higher.
"Why be cautious? Although I am a rough man and don't understand the whining words of you literati, but I also know one thing. That little girl must give me an explanation for repaying debts and killing people to pay for their lives. Otherwise, I will go directly to Beijing to see the Holy Spirit and let the Holy Spirit come up to administer justice!"
In fact, speaking of it, this old Marquis Junyuan doesn't care much about his second son. Speaking of which, this Wang Ergou is the son of an inferior aunt, and he doesn't receive much attention in the palace. , In addition, the old Marquis Junyuan likes to go out to look for flowers and flowers when he has nothing to do. Under the pressure of the eldest wife at home, he has never seen this son. He has not much impression of this so-called second son at all...
But that being said, even though he didn't think highly of his useless son, he couldn't stand being slapped in the face so nakedly. Think about it, the young master of Junyuanhou's house was killed and then dumped in a deserted alley to be pointed at...
No matter what, he couldn't bear this tone. Since he couldn't bear this tone, he was bound to explode!
"..." He Lianheng was silent for a moment. Facing this domineering old marquis, even a good-tempered person would lose his temper.
But, as the saying goes, a tiger is like a sick cat if it doesn't show off its power. The old Marquis looked at He Lianheng's silence, thinking that he was frightened by him, and secretly ridiculed He Lianheng's uselessness in his heart. He turned his head arrogantly and gave instructions to the useless Governor of Kyoto.
"Go, send me troops to catch all the girls here."
The governor of Kyoto shed a few drops of cold sweat in embarrassment. Naturally, he did not dare to disobey the old marquis's order and nodded in agreement. After all, in this capital, the most indispensable thing is officials. He can achieve this level as an official. Nature has its own abilities. An arrogant and overbearing old man who was also the emperor's savior could play tricks on himself to death with just one little finger, so he naturally did not dare to be careless.
With a wave of his hand, the governor of Kyoto was about to say domineeringly, "Come on, boys, come on," but He Lianheng suddenly interrupted. He looked at the old Marquis intently.
"Stop."
"This..." A look of confusion flashed across the face of the governor of Kyoto, but he stopped walking and looked at He Lianheng awkwardly, waiting for his next order.
Just kidding, he couldn't afford to offend either of these two people. One was the domineering old prince, and the other was a favored prince with a bright future. No matter which one he offended, he would not have to live.
He Lianheng looked at the old Marquis with a very cold expression and said.
"The old Marquis is too excited now and has lost the ability to distinguish right from wrong. Why not just report it to my father and let him make the final decision on this matter."
The old Marquis was so angry that he blew his beard and glared for a moment. Looking at the indifferent He Lianheng, he snorted and said sarcastically.
"Okay, Your Highness, it seems that you and that little girl are really planning to collude and bully this bad old man like me? Okay, then I will go and see the Holy Master now."
After saying that, he turned his head, stared at the governor of Kyoto and said fiercely.
"Before that, you send me troops to guard everyone here. No matter who they are, they can't go out. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I will definitely obey my orders, I will definitely obey my orders." The governor of Kyoto nodded and bowed again, making his promise, and then the old marquis took a long breath, tossed his sleeves and left.
The Governor of Kyoto looked at the back of the old Marquis leaving and let out a long breath. He felt aggrieved for a moment and wanted to find someone to share it with. When he raised his head and was about to greet He Lianheng, He Lianheng Heng ignored him again and walked directly into Moshang Xiangfang's territory.
This made him feel even more aggrieved, and at the same time it confirmed something in his heart.
This Third Highness, indeed, as rumored, really loves the woman named Dusha!
I don’t know what kind of appearance she has to be worthy of a man like His Highness.
