The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 25: The second killer

Views:

Originally thought that the play in front of Wen Yingdian was to test his own unparalleled power, so Sun Shaozong used the Spring and Autumn brushwork to hide the clumsy performances of the three little eunuchs.

But who would have thought that the routines in this were so deep? !

Sun Shaozong glanced at Uncle Yong Yi speechlessly, and then glanced at the emperor's expression.

He had roughly guessed the true identity of Uncle Yong Yi, but he didn't know whether the words 'removed from office and investigated and dealt with' just now were approved by the emperor, or whether Uncle Yong Yi was talking to himself.

If it is the latter, there may be some turning point.

If it's the former, then it's useless to say anything. It's better to plead guilty and obey the law, and then go home and live a leisurely life with a wife and children on the hot kang head - anyway, with a cheap big brother under the cover, life will not be too sad.

"Ha ha."

At this time, Emperor Guangde laughed lightly, and still asked indifferently, "Sun Shaozong, what did you say to Uncle Yong Yi, what should you distinguish?"

tsk~

Emperor Guangde's tone and expression really didn't show any clues.

Let's try it first!

Sun Shaozong took a deep breath, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I just want to ask Uncle Yong Yi, is your surname a 'bull'?"

Except for the grandson of Duke Zhen Guo, who is now a first-class uncle Niu Jizong, I am afraid that no one will care so much about the death of Ambassador Niu.

When Uncle Yong Yi heard this, his face turned a little darker, and without waiting for the emperor's orders, he said in a wicked manner: "So what is it, what is it not? You are ineffective in guarding, causing the assassination of the special envoy and the shame of the court, shouldn't it be right? Punishment?!"

However, Sun Shaozong ignored him, with a look of sadness on his face, he knelt down and said, "Since it is Sir Niu in front of him, the last general has nothing to say."

After all, he has also been in the officialdom for a few years [although it is only a regional bureau]. He knew that if he directly shied the blame at this time, it would only leave a worse impression on the boss, so he didn't say anything clearly, only beating around the bush and showing himself. Full of grievances.

Niu Jizong is not stupid. Hearing this, he knew that Sun Shaozong was implying that he was suppressing him, and was about to drink his 'dirty thoughts', but Emperor Guangde was already curious and said, "Why do you have nothing to say when Lord Niu is here? Can you say it?"

Just this 'Huh', Sun Shaozong felt his spirits lifted!

Because the emperor obviously did not intend to sing double reeds with Niu Jizong, otherwise there is no need to continue to ask questions.

"His Majesty."

Sun Shaozong fell to the ground and said without raising his head: "Master Niu has lost a close relative, and it is already a tragic event in the world. How can the last commander stand in front of him and make it clear that the special envoy Niu is at fault? Therefore, the last commander has nothing to say. ."

He kept saying 'nothing to say', but in fact he had already placed the responsibility on Niu Yongxin's head, fearing that it would be even more severe than what he said.

When Niu Jizong heard this, he became more and more annoyed. He didn't care that this was a prelude to the emperor, and jumped and scolded: "What a shameless villain! My brother died for the country's loyalty, and you dare to smear him in front of the lord! Really! His heart can be punished, his heart can be punished!"

After speaking, he also knelt down on the ground and wailed: "Your Majesty, my family is full of loyalty and loyalty, and the heart of serving the country with fists and fists is very clear. The mouth of the people! Please cut off Sun Shaozong quickly, so that you can see what you hear!"

rely on ~

This is clearly to kill people!

And he also deliberately dragged the old town king out to use it as a weight.

Sun Shaozong didn't think he could stand up to the head of the four princes and eight princes, so he quickly defended and said, "Since Niu Da keeps saying that he will be a villain at the end, then the general can only..."

"To shut up!"

Niu Jizong had already guessed at this time that his unreliable younger brother must have done something outrageous in Qianxiang Country, and Sun Shaozong took the handle.

So he was willing to let Sun Shaozong speak freely

First, he interrupted Sun Shaozong with a loud shout, and then said sternly: "Such a villain's sophistry, listening to it will only contaminate Your Majesty's ears! I also ask Your Majesty to quickly decree the killing of this beast, and return one to the government of the government. Innocent, give my younger brother justice!"

I'm going!

Not even allowed to distinguish, and the words inside and outside the words actually contain the meaning of persecuting Emperor Guangde!

What chilled Sun Shaozong the most was that Emperor Guangde actually showed a little wavering under his aggressive aura!

"His Majesty!"

Seeing that it was delayed any longer, he might really be pushed out to be beheaded.

Sun Shaozong hurriedly took out a pamphlet from his arms, and said anxiously, "If there are only the words of the last general's family, it may be nothing! But here I have the transcripts of seventy-three people from the embassy, including Sir Niu's personal servant, maids, etc. Five people are enough to prove that Ambassador Niu was greedy for the money and food of the Mexican embassy during his tenure, and…”

Niu Jizong scolded again: "Bold Sun Shaozong, you actually forged a confession!"

But his life is at stake, but Sun Shaozong still has time to pay attention to him

He raised the pamphlet above his head with both hands, and said loudly: "And all the positions in the embassy, such as labor and handyman, are all sold at a clear price, and the traitor who poisoned the humble position was also recruited by Sir Niu - there is an account book in it. As proof, please preview it, Your Majesty!"

This is another trump card that Sun Shaozong prepared in addition to 'reliance on foreigners'!

For these testimonies and account books, he spent a lot of effort - if it weren't for the investigation of the case, Sun Shaozong had already established supreme authority within the embassy, and he might not have been so thorough.

When Niu Jizong heard this, his heart was already half cold.

He hesitated, trying to stop Sun Shaozong from presenting the booklet, but Dai Quan, the eunuch in charge of the palace, trotted forward to take it, and swiftly sent it to Emperor Guangde.

Niu Jizong's feet moved, but he didn't dare to stop him after all.

Emperor Guangde took the booklet and flipped through it, and saw that although the writing on it was a bit poor, the conditions were clear and orderly, and it was no less than the book written by the old officials. A decision has also been made on the assassination case.

slap~

He folded the pamphlet together and sneered: "Okay, what a loyal family, what a heart of fist and fist that can shine the sun and the moon, what a good one who died for the country's loyalty!"

This three consecutive 'good one', but it is a cold sound!

Niu Jizong's face turned pale, he didn't dare to take it anymore, he banged his head three times and said in a trembling voice, "This minister is frightened, this minister has no way to teach his younger brother, this minister..."

"enough!"

Emperor Guangde impatiently threw the pamphlet in front of him and said: "For the sake of the old town's prince, you should send his deducted salaries to the treasury, and these bullshit things will not happen. Go - back off!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long, and thank you, Your Majesty, Long!"

Niu Jizong hurriedly picked up the booklet, bowed his body and walked out in panic.

After he disappeared outside the door, when he looked at Emperor Guangde's face again, there was already a smile on his face, he stretched out his hand to help him, and said kindly: "Get up, since you have meritorious deeds, I naturally want to Great reward for you! Tell me, what do you want?"

In fact, this is a cliché.

Generally speaking, when the courtiers listened to it, they all felt the inscription, and said obediently that everything was in accordance with His Majesty's instructions, and there was nothing wrong with being a courtier. In this way, the emperor could take out the rewards that he had prepared for a long time. .

But Sun Jizong didn't follow the routine this time. Hearing this, he immediately said with all his body on the ground: "Report to Your Majesty, last... Wei Chen wants to transfer to a civil service!"
