Chapter 205: extraordinary lift
Chapter 205 Extraordinary move
On March 19, the fifth year of Jinglong, the day before the Spring Festival.
Everyone gathered in Kang'an, the capital city of Dazhou, to prepare for the exam. Kang'an was nervous and excited everywhere. More nervous than Juzi is Zhang Wenjiang, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture. He summoned the governor of the Shaofu, Kang'an Lingcheng, and the commander and deputy commander of the five city soldiers and horses to gather in Jingzhao Prefecture for a meeting. Three orders and five declarations must ensure that Kang'an City will be used as a tribute to the court tomorrow. The roads in front of the yamen of the Ministry of Rites are smooth, we must ensure that the children enter the venue safely, and we must ensure that no one takes the opportunity to cause trouble and steal chickens...
"Hanchuang has been studying hard for more than ten or twenty years. Success or failure is overnight. We are all here. We should observe Juzi's state of mind and **** him to enter the venue safely." Zhang Wenjiang said with emotion.
Liao Gang, Shaoyin of Jingzhao Prefecture, reminded, "Sir, there are also martial artists who have been practicing martial arts for more than ten years."
Zhang Wenjiang stared, "Whether it's literature or martial arts, today I'm studying hard behind closed doors, preparing for tomorrow's tribute to the Academy!"
"What the lord said is very true." Kang An Lingcheng Xiao Zhiliang hurriedly smoothed things out, "Whether it's a civil or military exercise, you will have to write an article tomorrow."
How does Jiang Erzhi study hard for a year compare to others who study hard for ten years? Liao Gang immediately decided to make another heavy bet, betting that Jiang Er would fail the Jinshi exam.
"Report—" The clerk knelt outside the door of the council hall and said loudly, "Sir, Jiang Feng, the exiled Rui Xian from Huijiafang, came to report the crime."
The veins on Zhang Wenjiang's forehead popped up. Isn't he going to the Gongyuan Academy tomorrow to write an essay? I'm not reading at home now, but I'm here to make trouble! Don't you know that Jingzhao Mansion is very busy! He didn't want to see this guy, so he ordered, "Yuncheng, go and see what case he reported."
"Yes." Zhao Minde, Shao Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, got up calmly under the gloating eyes of another Shao Yin, Liao Gang, and rushed to the front office of Jingzhao Mansion.
At this time, outside the front office, it was already densely packed with people. The former yamen's two classes of yamen were lined up on both sides, and Jiang Xianxian standing in the middle was particularly conspicuous. Beside him lay three black-clothed and masked corpses.
It turned out to be a murder case, Zhao Minde shrank his pupils, slapped a gavel, and said solemnly, "Who is in the hall, what happened here, tell the truth."
When Jiang Erye explained the case, Zhao Minde frowned. In broad daylight, in the capital city of Kang'an, there were people who dared to commit murder on the street and kidnap officials' families. Who is so arrogant, Princess Leyang, Prince Yijiang Hou, or Meng Huizhou, Minister of Punishment?
These three people immediately appeared in Zhao Minde's mind, no matter which one, this is an extremely difficult case. Zhao Minde asked again, "Can the whereabouts of the escaped murderer be traced?"
Jiang Erye said, "General Huang's two bodyguards chased from Yanxingmen to Yongningfang. The murderer had nowhere to escape, one was slaughtered, and the other went into the walled courtyard and disappeared."
Yi Jianghou Mansion was in Yongning Square, Zhao Minde immediately said, "Whose home?"
Jiang Erye looked up at Zhao Minde and replied, "Pingxi Houfu."
It's not the Yijiang Marquis, but the Pingxi Marquis? Zhao Minde asked, "Is there any investigation inside?"
Jiang Erye nodded, "After Pingxi Hou's mansion got the news, he immediately ordered someone to search, but there was no trace of the murderer."
The water left a mark, the wild geese left a sound, and a huge person jumped in, how could there be no trace? Zhao Minde immediately ordered his master to record and conduct an autopsy, and he sent someone to invite Zhang Wenjiang, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture.
I didn't expect such a big case to happen. Zhang Wenjiang, who couldn't escape, went to the Qianya, examined the corpse on the ground, and listened to the confession of the Jiang family's servants. He was furious.
He carefully thought about the case in his heart, and immediately said, "These people should be picked up when they leave the city, and immediately send someone outside the Yanxing Gate to track down the person who connected; Mr. Zhao, immediately send someone to notify the Jiumen Yulinwei, and conduct a strict investigation. People with bows and arrows; Ren Caotou, you immediately take people to the Pingxi Houfu, to help the Houfu catch the murderer, so as not to hurt the innocent again."
The son of the Marquis of Pingxi is Deng Yuanjie, the late concubine of Princess Leyang. The murderer climbed over the wall and entered the Marquis of Pingxi, and Zhang Wenjiang had to think of Princess Leyang. But out of intuition, Zhang Wenjiang didn't think this was done by Princess Leyang, because it would not benefit her at all. That's why Zhang Wenjiang used the word "innocent" to remind Jiang Feng and the people outside the government to be suspicious.
"Pictures of the corpses will be posted and posted all over Kang'an City to identify the corpses; and then send someone to check the origin of the bow and arrow held by the murderer. Within three days, they will find out who the murderer is!"
"Yes!"
After everyone in Jingzhao Mansion heard the news, Zhang Wenjiang sighed that fortunately Jiang Feng's daughter escaped, otherwise Jiang Feng would not be able to enter the venue with peace of mind tomorrow, and the purpose of the murderer's mastermind was achieved. Zhang Wenjiang also raised a bit of sympathy for Jiang Feng at this time, "This case will definitely be investigated by the government, and Xian Xian should calm down and take the test first, and the murderer's tricks cannot be allowed to succeed."
Jiang Erye, who did not smile at all, thanked Zhang Wenjiang with a fist, and led the official from Jingzhao Mansion back to the mansion to record a statement for Jiang.
Hearing about the danger of the little girl more than an hour ago, Jiang Erye's heart still hurts badly. After the yacha left, Jiang Erye gently hugged the little girl in his arms, and Jiang Muyan and Jiang Mu, who had swollen eyes from crying Zheng, Jiang Mujin and Jiang's family all stood by, comforting and praising Jiang Liu.
The client Jiang Liu was very calm at this time. Dad picked her up from Huang Li and his wife's carriage, and he and his family dealt with follow-up matters non-stop. By now, he should be thirsty and tired. Jiang Liu raised his head and said, "Dad, Liu'er is hungry and wants to eat."
Liu girl just had dinner, so she was hungry. She felt sorry for her father. Madam Jiang looked at the six girls whose wrists and ankles were wrapped, distressed and relieved, and ordered the meal.
Jiang Erye ate the meal in silence, comforted his mother a few words, and returned to the west courtyard with his two daughters. Glancing at the Xikuayuan, which was razed to the ground and planted with peach trees to ward off evil spirits, Jiang Erye directly sent the two daughters back to the Dongkuayuan, watching them drink the soothing soup. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the two girls, Jiang Erye got up and walked out.
Jiang Liu called softly, "Daddy."
The little girl's voice was soft and glutinous, which made Jiang Erye's heart hurt again, and he stopped and turned back.
Jiang Liu showed his most sincere smile to his father, "Dad, Liu'er and sister are doing fine. Daddy will enter the Gongyuan Academy tomorrow with peace of mind and take a jinshi exam, I will be mad at them!"
Jiang Erye stared at the little girl for a while, walked to the couch, raised his hand and touched her forehead, "I don't have a fever, why do you laugh like a fool?"
Jiang Liu was not angry at all, and still looked at Daddy with a smile on his face, "Even if you're stupid, you're still Daddy's good daughter."
Jiang Erye showed a smile on her tense face, rubbed her little face, patted the eldest daughter on the shoulder, turned around and returned to the main courtyard, and ordered Jiang Bao, "Go and call Uncle Qiu back and let him give it to the father. Shizhen, I want to go to the Gongyuan in the morning when I wake up!"
His heart was still on fire, and he couldn't sleep on his own.
"Yes!" Jiang Bao responded loudly and ran out quickly.
With the help of Uncle Qiu, soon after Jiang Erye fell into a deep sleep, Emperor Jinghe in the palace got the news that Jiang Feng's daughter had been robbed, and was furious, "Zhang Wenjiang, the governor of Xuanjing Zhaofu!"
