[The first watch and the next two watch are all in the middle of the night. Those who go to bed early don't have to wait. It's not too late to watch again tomorrow. 】
I dare not mention how Princess Beijing applied the medicine.
But he said that Sun Shaozong had written the memorial, so he was ready to go to the palace to hand over a plaque to meet the emperor, and to settle the tune of "rewards and pensions" first.
Unexpectedly, they rushed to Xihuamen, only to see the 'free battle card' hanging high.
The Hu Ben army, who was on duty in front of the door, swept through and learned that it was the concubine who was in poor health. The emperor deliberately pushed the official business in the afternoon to accompany the birth mother's bed to filial piety.
Of course, if there are 100,000 urgent matters, it can still be done in a special way and presented directly to the emperor.
But what Sun Shaozong is going to report today is obviously a big gap away from 100,000 hurried.
He had no choice but to get back on the carriage and turn around and follow the road.
But looking at it, it was already close to Shen Zheng's [four o'clock in the afternoon]. Even if he returned to the yamen, he probably wouldn't be able to sit for a while, and it was time to leave the yamen again.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong did not return to Dali Temple on the way, but went to Zhang An's house on the way.
…
call~
As the coachman shouted loudly, the pulling horse stopped outside Zhang An's house.
Sun Shaozong picked up the curtain and got out of the car. Hearing the constant mourning inside, he sighed inwardly. He was about to go inside, but two strange faces suddenly appeared inside.
The two of them knew Sun Shaozong, and when they saw that they were walking away to meet him, they both bowed to greet him: "Xiaguan Ding Renlu [Xin Longtao], I have seen Lord Tingwei."
Seeing the official's 'holding a first-class' atmosphere, it's really... It's quite pleasing to the ears.
However, since they call themselves inferior officials, they are obviously officials with serious errands. Now they enter and leave Zhang An's house, but for what
Sun Shaozong asked subconsciously, "Are you two from that yamen? Do you have an old relationship with Zhang An, or..."
Ding Renlu, who was the leader, said respectfully, "The two of us were sent by Yang Shilang from the Ministry of Punishment to thoroughly investigate the case of Zhang Xianjian's murder of his uncle."
When Sun Shaozong heard this, his face immediately sank.
He had long guessed that Yang Anbang would stand up for his cousin, but he never imagined that this fellow would act so fast—it took less than two and a half hours since he captured Yang Han at noon. Anjia is here!
but…
This should be considered overreach, right
"Your Ministry of Punishment only has the right to review, and since it involves... Cough!"
Sun Shaozong originally wanted to say that since Yang Hancai was involved, Yang Anbang, as his elder brother, should avoid the case.
However, he immediately thought that his arrest of Yang Hancai was based on Wei Ruolan's case, so at least in theory, Yang Hancai and Zhang An's case of killing his uncle had nothing to do directly.
Therefore, he hurriedly coughed and changed his words: "Even if you want to intervene, you should wait until the case is reported to the Department of Punishment."
Ding Renlu and Xin Longtao looked at each other, and said neither arrogantly nor arrogantly: "In the words of Lord Hui Tingwei, the case has already been submitted to the Ministry of Justice by Shuntian Prefecture, and it was after my family's Yang Shilang checked the file that he felt that the case was very strange, so he sent the case. Officials and others came to review and visit."
Already reported
Needless to say, it must have been the work of Wang Qian, the magistrate of Daxing County—Ge Changcun, who ruled in the Shuntian government, was also involved 80% of the time.
These two guys are really determined to fight against themselves!
Sun Shaozong scolded inwardly, kept the matter in his heart for a while, and stepped aside to give way, indicating that the two would take care of themselves.
Ding Renlu and Xin Longtao each sued each other again, and then they got on their horses and walked away - looking at the direction they were leaving, it was obvious that they had to go to Daxing County Government Office for a while.
Sun Shaozong watched the two gradually go away, turned around and was waiting to cross the threshold, but saw Wang Zhen leading a few people, greeted them from the inside, and surrounded them with 'official' and 'low-ranking' for a long time.
These are Zhang An's former colleagues in the patrol camp, but looking at the eager faces, I am afraid that Zhang An is fake, and it is true that he wants to show affection in front of Sun Shaozong.
But no matter what, since these people are here to express condolences, Sun Shaozong, as a 'half victim', has to give some face.
He was patient and finally dismissed everyone, and before he could get on the mount slowly, Sun Shaozong grabbed Wang Zhen and questioned the two officers of the Punishment Department.
"It doesn't really matter."
Wang Zhen scratched his head and said in a sullen voice: "Most of them are things that everyone knows about. I think about them and ask others, and I can also ask them. Maybe they are biased - so I didn't hide them. Tuck."
Even after hearing what he said, Sun Shaozong was still not at ease. He asked Wang Zhen to study the answer just now and carefully study it. After confirming that there was nothing in it that could be used as a handle, he was a little relieved.
And this slack, only to realize that after going out, there is still a Zhang Wu family.
She didn't come to eavesdrop on purpose, but she was supposed to go out, but when she saw the two of them whispering, she didn't know whether to enter or retreat, so she froze behind the door.
Upon seeing this, Sun Shaozong approached in two steps, bowed across the threshold and said: "Sun is incompetent, and I also ask Mrs. Sister-in-law to mourn and change."
When Zhang An was still alive, he did not have such respect for Zhang Wu, but now that the deceased is a big one, he should be more polite than usual.
Mrs. Zhang Wu saw that he was dressed in a purple official robe and was extravagant, but he didn't dare to accept his courtesy, so he quickly stepped aside, shook his head in a hoarse voice, and said, "What do you say, sir, you have taken care of our mother and son a lot, and for the sake of Xianggong's case comes and goes, and the little woman sees it all."
Saying that, he also gave way to the side, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Sir, please come in first and put on the incense stick."
Naturally, Sun Shaozong would not refuse. He stepped over the threshold and walked ahead.
When he entered the door, he saw Zhang An's body. He had put on a brand-new shroud. He was lying on the flat bed, his face was covered with sapphire blue silk cloth, and the soles of his feet were still lit with an ever-bright lamp.
Zhang An's son was sitting on the top left side, rubbing his knees with grinning teeth. He is only four years old now, and he is afraid that he still can't understand the important matter of life and death.
Especially in the past two years, Zhang An was out on the expedition, and he was imprisoned in a few days after returning. He was very unfamiliar with this biological father.
ah~
Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong couldn't help but sighed again.
At this time, Zhang Wu hurriedly ordered: "Xu'er, what are you still doing, come here and kowtow to Master Sun!"
Although the child is still ignorant, he is very well-behaved. Hearing his mother's greeting, he immediately walked forward a few steps on his knees, and slapped his head in an orderly manner.
Sun Shaozong stood still, but then ordered: "Knock again."
The little guy was stunned for a moment, first glanced at Sun Shaozong timidly, and then pouted and cast a look of help at his mother.
Seeing this, Mr. Zhang Wu thought that something was wrong with his son and bumped into Sun Shaozong.
Just when he was in a state of anxiety, Wang Zhen, who was beside him, saw the clue, and rushed forward to urge: "This stupid boy, if your lord asks you to knock, just knock, how many people are begging to knock and still can't get it!"
He was quite familiar with this kid recently, so the little guy hesitated for a while, and then kowtowed again.
After he kowtowed three times in a row, Sun Shaozong pulled the child up from the ground, embraced him in his arms and said with a serious expression, "Now this is the name set, and in the future Xu'er will be Sun Shaozong's adopted son, as long as I am alive In the future, his rich and noble future will be indispensable!"
After a pause, he said again: "Tomorrow I will enter the palace and ask for a reward for him first!"
Only then did Mrs. Zhang Wu understand, she couldn't help crying with joy, and then with a thud, she knelt down and kowtowed again and again.
Sun Shaozong instructed Wang Zhen to lift her up, and handed over the child to her to take care of him. Then he walked to the offering table in the center of the mourning hall and took sandalwood to worship.
