Chapter 940 Chapter 940: The whole story [Three-in-one, please vote]
∣
The official from the Ministry of Justice did not expect that Shen Tang would suddenly attack. He was hit from the front without warning. His chest felt as if he had been stepped on by a wild beast, and he immediately vomited a mouthful of blood.
Shen Tang’s apricot eyes were cold and stern: “Catch him alive!”
Two personal guards lifted up the official from the Ministry of Justice, who had almost collapsed into a puddle of flesh. Shen Tang raised his hand and transformed into a long, narrow sword with a simple aura. The blade of the sword was against the neck of the official from the Criminal Department, and he lifted his chin with the blade of the sword. The anger in his chest was rushing: "You are very brave, you actually dare to risk your life and come back!"
A broker is the eyes and ears specially arranged by the other party.
This action not only controls Shen Tang's movements, but also deliberately misleads her to the so-called clues, making her suspect that the mastermind of the official debt is the Jinli County Sheriff. Once this judgment was made, Shen Tang would naturally not contact the Jinli official office directly out of caution.
Then it is logical to lead to the so-called flower boat clue.
As for informing Shen Tang’s identity to Captain Zhe Chong in advance, it was also to mislead Shen Tang. There was a problem with Captain Zhe Chong’s identity, attracting her attention to the latter and muddying the waters.
In this way, we successfully delayed the process for three days.
Kang Shi saw this scene when he came back.
The official from the Ministry of Punishment was arrested. His face turned pale, half of his face was blurred by the blood he spat out, and his breathing was unstable. It was obvious that he had suffered serious internal injuries. He had some impressions of this person. He was Shi, the Commander of the Bibu Department of the Criminal Department. He remembered that this person was calm, resolute, taciturn, gentle and gentle.
In the blink of an eye, countless guesses flashed through Kang Shi's mind.
The one with the strongest sense of presence—
There is a traitor in the Ministry of Punishment and has been infiltrated by the enemy!
The second guess is that someone stole the identity of the imperial edict and sneaked into the Ministry of Punishment for evil purposes. No matter which one it is, Kang Shi, as the Minister of Punishment, is responsible for poor supervision.
He waved his hands to surround the area.
It only took four or five breaths from Shen Tang's kick at the door to Kang Shi's attack. Shi, the Commander of the Bibu Unit, also regained his breath. He looked up at Shen Tang with a blood-stained face and said mockingly: "Master, I don't care. Is this a benevolent ruler who kills subordinate officials indiscriminately?"
The teeth were stained red with dirty blood mixed with saliva.
His eyes were astonishingly bright.
"They are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are you playing with me?" The sword in Shen Tang's hand was surprisingly stable, and he was not at all bewitched by Shi, the commander of the army. "You don't want to admit your identity? That's fine, Ji Shou, you will use this Drag the corpse out and break it into bone powder! Then put it in a pot and make soup for her to drink and see if she recognizes it!"
The "corpse" Shen Tang mentioned was the one dug up from the mass grave. Although Kang Shi felt that this move was horrifying and cruel, he did not refute it, but solemnly ordered people to take the body away. When Commander Shi saw this, his ridicule turned into overwhelming anger!
"you dare?"
"Do you think I dare? Do you think I'm some good man and woman who can still be good-tempered and not care about being provoked at the door? Isn't that right, an oiran lady?" Shen Tang sneered to reveal the true identity of Commander Shi of the Bibu Division, "Or Say, Liu Changshi?"
This information shocked Kang Shi and turned his head to look at Ling Shi.
The latter had no fear when their identity was revealed.
The edge of the Mother Sword made a small **** in her neck, and a small bright red snake snaked out and submerged into her collar.
Shen Tang's seemingly calm tone revealed the volcano that had been suppressed for a long time: "You probably didn't expect why the body buried in the mass grave was your sister and not the censor Zheng Yu who was brutally killed by you... Did you I’m looking forward to it, I’m looking forward to digging up the grave according to the clues of the broker, and what I dig up is not a clue, but Zheng Yu who has been missing for a long time, what kind of expression will it look like on my face?”
Ling Shi looked at Shen Tang blankly and suddenly grinned.
showing a crazy and somewhat regretful smile.
"Yeah, it's a pity that I didn't see it. You know, I saw Zheng Yu's body buried with my own eyes, but I didn't expect that a traitor would appear..." At the mention of "traitor", this person's face showed an undisguised expression. Disgusted, "not enough -"
Shen Tang got straight to the point: “Where is the food, grass, and money?”
Ling Shi chuckled like bubbles escaped from his throat, looked at Shen Tang with mocking eyes, and said in a sinister manner: "I thought the king was talented and could find out if I thought about it. Now that I am spared, is there no clue? Hehehe , can I say it?”
Shen Tang moved the sword in his hand forward a little: "You don't have to say anything, I can only guarantee that you will enter the prison of the Ministry of Punishment alive."
The dripping of blood made Shi not afraid at all.
She smiled and coughed up a mouthful of blood: "I can survive even **** on earth, let alone a mere prison of the Kangguo Criminal Department!"
Seeing that she was not getting enough food and salt, Shen Tang added coldly.
“High country.”
Mr. Shi's smile suddenly froze.
Shen Tang lowered his eyes slightly: "You should be from the Northern Desert. Although the two places trade with each other, the leader of the border army is Gong Shuwu. He has no father, no mother, no wife, no children, no daughters. The trick you used in Jinli County We couldn't buy it off. It's not feasible to transport things out this way, so the neighboring Gao State became the best target. The relationship between Kang State and Gao State has been good in recent years."
The two countries exchange supplies, and trade management is not strict. It is the best choice for materials to be diverted to the Northern Desert through this road. Shen Tang was more than half sure that the things embezzled in the name of official debts were in Gao Guo. Half sure, Shen Tang spoke with great confidence.
Her eyebrows raised an arc: "With the friendship between Kanggao and Kanggao, do you think I can recover the loss?"
Although Shen Tang and Wu Xian's deep love is plastic, the relationship between countries only depends on interests. Shen Tang has developed rapidly and powerfully in recent years, and Wu Xian has also benefited a lot from it. In addition, he comes from an orthodox family and sincerely looks down on the Bei Mo people. It is impossible for him to secretly form an alliance with Bei Mo to harm Shen Tang's interests. Just one letter may be enough to undo the damage.
It’s just that time is tight, so I hope it will be half and half.
As soon as these words came out, Ling Shi ignored the sword edge that was still pressed against her chin, lowered her head and laughed, the rise and fall of her chest gradually increasing.
Her smile went from deep to flamboyant to sarcastic. She didn't care about the sword wound on her neck at all. She let the blood spurt out and wet her collar. Zhang Yang laughed: "Haha... then you try. Why don't you try? It's because you don't have it either. You’re absolutely sure, right?”
Shen Tang's expression suddenly became serious.
Ling Shi laughed so hard that tears came to his eyes.
Shen Tang took back the Mother Sword, and blood dripped from the tip of the sword: "Put the person down, no matter the cost, as long as you can get the words out of her mouth, Wangchao will take care of it."
The personal guards escorted Ling Shi down.
Ling Shi was seriously injured and it was difficult to even walk at the moment.
She was dragged past Shen Tang, and Ling Shi finally stopped laughing: "Do you know how my sister died?"
The guard caught Shen Tang's look and stopped.
Although Ling Shi looks like a man at this moment, his voice is exactly the same as that of the court lady yesterday: "...My sister and I are twin sisters. She was sold into the flower boat, and within two years she became the mainstay of the flower boat. Anyway, But she survived after all, and His Highness the King of the Kingdom ordered that the flower boat be banned and that the flower girl be released to a good place and regain her freedom. Why did she die miserably instead?"
Ling Shi’s face turned ferocious as the last sentence ended.
She smiled sinisterly and turned to look at Shen Tang.
“Did you see the scars on her body?”
Shen Tang glanced at Ling Shi: "Take him down for interrogation!"
Ling Shi alone can't handle such a big game. Shen Tang wants to know her status and identity in Bei Mo, and wants to know what happened inside the Gao Kingdom. Haha, I hope Wu Zhaode won't let her down, otherwise Bei Mo will be destroyed. He is the next one!
Not long after, Yu Zi led someone to bring a corpse.
“Kang Shangshu, a corpse was found in the well.”
This corpse is the real history of the Ministry of Punishment.
Kang Shi knelt down and looked at the criminal official Shi who had his throat cut with a knife, and said solemnly: "The person who was arrested should have a scribe similar to Yuan Liang. With such a perfect disguise, he didn't recognize her at all when he met her. 'is fake…"
He stood up and told Yu Zi: "You must pay special attention when interrogating this person, and you must not let her escape."
Yu Zi cupped her hands and said, "Yes!"
Kang Shi looked at Shen Tang who was standing next to the white skeleton: "How did the Lord know that this person would come at this moment?"
Why don’t you rush to run after such a big thing?
actually turned back.
Shen Tang: "Because I found out the information about the owner of the bones, the intelligence said that she was the star of the flower boat. She was released to a good place a few years ago and married Niu Er. Niu Er was kind to her at first for the money in her hands, but soon She almost exposed her true nature and squandered all her money, and her life soon returned to the original embarrassment. She couldn't get the money out, so Niu Er used her as a punching bag."
Niu Er likes to use violence when he is drunk.
Hit Hua Niang on the head one time.
She is crazy, sometimes sober and sometimes chaotic.
Niu Er's family couldn't watch any one of them, so she ran around on the street. A crazy woman is very dangerous outside. Niu Er soon discovered that her belly was getting bigger day by day.
She gave birth in the cold winter last year.
On the day when the amniotic water broke, I was lucky enough to be saved by a female doctor who was passing by. I gave birth to the baby without any risk, and my mind became much clearer.
And her death…
It is true as the broker said, she suddenly went crazy and went to the street to scold Shen Tang for not having a son, and was tortured and killed.
"... Her body was thrown into a mass grave by Niu Er's family. Someone buried her body and buried her in the ground. The sister of the twins, the one just now, probably also found out the whereabouts of her sister and buried her in the grave. The corpse was replaced by Zheng Yu."
This move is not without provocation.
It can be regarded as a face-to-face exaggeration.
However, Zheng Yu’s bones were replaced midway.
Kang Shi frowned: "Who changed it?"
This question will soon be answered. The person who secretly exchanged the bodies, Shen Tang, had a relationship with her. She was the female soldier who led the search on the flower boat despite Captain Zhechong's orders.
Why does Shen Tang know?
Because the female soldiers recruited themselves.
To be precise, it was her suicide note.
There were many people in Zhechong Mansion who fell into the official debt scam. When the scam was exposed, everyone was in chaos, and no one discovered the situation of this female soldier. When she was found, she was already dead in her house. The body had been cold for a long time, with a suicide note underneath it.
Before the female soldiers joined the army, they worked as sweepers in the kitchen of Huachuan.
When the courtesan was released to a good place, he also spent money to buy her a deed of sale, allowing her to be free. She had a lot of strength, and unexpectedly got a recruitment quota. In addition, the women's camp paid well, so she came up with the idea of going to the military camp to try her luck.
In this world, a woman has no one to rely on and her life is difficult, so the oiran prepares generous expenses for her.
Female soldiers leave for two or three years.
The experience of the oiran also caused the two to lose contact.
When the two met again, it was already the cold winter of last year. The oiran had been tortured so much that he was in disrepair and could no longer see the appearance of the original magnificent pillar. In order to repay her kindness and help Huo Oi, the female soldier planned to let Huo Oi and Niu Er get separated, but Niu Er refused.
The lion opened his mouth and asked for a sum of money, his triangular eyes full of calculations: "I only need this amount to get a job. As long as you can afford it, you can take this woman away!" 】
The savings of female soldiers are far from enough.
But she still agreed.
She quickly found the way to get the money.
The profits from official debt are astonishingly high and can be collected quickly.
The female soldier informed the oiran of the good news, but the oiran sensed that something was wrong: [...In the past, there were also businessmen who were my patrons. They told me about the profits of doing business. If so much official debt is released at once, even if these merchants are stripped to their bones and cramped, they still won't be able to repay it. What kind of business can get 50% profit in such a short period of time? No, please help me find out. 】
The female soldier was puzzled: [What are you asking about? ]【Of course I want to ask how much official debt has been lent! You have worked hard for these savings, so you cannot hand them over casually. What if the merchant runs away with the money? 】
However, he still did as the oiran said.
The female soldier can't come into contact with people from high places, but she can't stand up to the many people around her. The soldiers in Zhechong Mansion do not only plow the fields but also practice every day. They spend a lot of time together, so it's easy to make clichés.
She informed the oiran about the news she had learned.
The oiran made a calculation in his mind.
The pretty face turned even paler: 【I'm afraid something big is going to happen. 】
The female soldier didn't understand: "What's the big deal?" 】
The oiran tried hard to explain, but the female soldier felt that it was unfounded: "We all want it, but the big shots above can't think of it?" Since they are relieved, there must be no problem. 】
Even if the sky falls, there will still be tall people holding on.
A few days passed after this.
Because she received treatment from a female doctor during childbirth, the oiran's spirits were getting better and better. It's just that Niu Er's mother and son were not good to her. Even though there were female soldiers to help her, they often deprived her of food, leaving her hungry and full. She had no choice but to embroider some handkerchiefs and sell them on the streets.
The oiran met the female doctor who delivered her baby that day.
The female doctor also recognized the oiran.
Smiled and asked her how her recovery was going.
The oiran naturally reported good news but not bad news, and hesitantly asked how the daughter she gave birth to was doing. Because Niu Er also expected her to continue the family lineage of Lao Niu, and forced abortion would damage her body, Niu Er allowed her to give birth to the child, but did not want the child to live.
The female doctor who delivered the baby learned about this and was willing to adopt the child.
The female doctor’s eyebrows were full of compassion: [In the past few years, I have been practicing medicine with my teacher and found that many families do not like baby girls. Many of them drowned in toilet pails or abandoned them in the wilderness after birth. These children are so pitiful that they died without even surviving a day after they were born. It happened that the family had some assets, so they took the initiative to build a charity hall to house these abandoned baby girls. 】
Each time after delivering a baby, she would ask the family if they wanted a child. If not, she would be willing to waive the medical fees for delivering the baby in exchange for the baby. The child will grow up in the shantang. If you regret it, you can take the child back. However, in the more than four years since her charity was established, the number of children has only increased, and no parents have ever regretted taking them away.
The oiran knows his situation.
And because the child’s biological father was the son of some local ruffian when she was crazy, she thought about it and entrusted the child to him. But after all, it was her child who was conceived in ten months. The oiran was gentle and kind-hearted, and she still missed the child in her heart.
When I met a female doctor by chance, I couldn't help but ask about the child's condition.
The female doctor wrote her an address: "Everything is well with the child. If you have a chance in the future, you can come to the charity hall outside Fengluo City. She now takes my surname and goes to Jiujiu, which is called Qi Jiujiu." Jiujiu is a nickname. When she is older and enlightens, she will be given a big name. 】
The oiran was confused when he heard this: [Enlightenment? 】
She felt a little worried.
The courtesans were sold into flower boats and "enlightened" for a long time.
In order to sell at a high price, you have to learn a little bit about everything.
【If you have talent, then send it to a serious school to study. 】
What the female doctor said is natural.
The oiran was silent for a while.
【Ninety-nine ahead, there are ninety-eight children...】
How much does it cost to go to school?
The female doctor said: [There are nineteen more after her. 】
Kunzhou is the most economically disadvantaged area in Kang State. The place is poor and the common people’s families have no money left. They are also particularly mean and stingy towards their baby girls. They are even less willing to raise them and feel that they are wasting food. The female doctor hasn't even done a free clinic here yet, and she has adopted a bunch of children.
The oiran looked at the female doctor with reverence.
At this time, someone came over.
The young man is wearing a maroon robe and has an unattractive appearance.
【I'm here, Zheng Yu. 】
The oiran saw many patrons in the flower boat, and he could tell at a glance that the young man was not good-looking, but had an extraordinary temperament and was an unusual person.
She thought they were husband and wife.
Hearing this, Zheng Yu hurriedly waved his hand to explain.
It turns out that the female doctor helped the young mother cure a woman's disease that had been unmentionable for many years. The two happened to meet here and became familiar with each other as soon as they went back and forth. Young people need help from a female doctor. The female doctor goes in and out of the back houses of rich and wealthy families to inquire about things.
The oiran wanted to repay her kindness, so she began to make insinuations about what was going on. She had contacted many people before, so she might be able to know something.
Zheng Yu hesitated for a while and looked at the female doctor.
After the female doctor nodded imperceptibly to indicate that there was no problem with her status as an oiran, Zheng Yu asked the merchant about his business in a cryptic manner.
The oiran was very thoughtful and quickly noticed something.
She talked about the official debt in a cryptic manner.
Zheng Yu was overjoyed when he heard this. This was exactly what he wanted to know.
However, the evidence is difficult to obtain.
If you rush to give advice and alert the corrupt officials here, I'm afraid no evidence will be left. Zheng Yu asked the oiran where he got the news. The oiran didn't think much about it and just vaguely said that a friend was in Zhechong Mansion and he didn't know about it until then.
Zheng Yu’s expression changed: [Zhe Chong Mansion? 】
Oiran subconsciously became nervous, worried that she would say the wrong thing, and even more afraid of causing trouble to the female soldier: [She also heard about it. 】
Fortunately, Zheng Yu did not continue to ask.
The female doctor did not stay in Jinli County for a few days and went elsewhere to receive treatment. Zheng Yu stayed and had several contacts with the oiran. Although Zheng Yu did not reveal his specific identity, the oiran also guessed that he was working for the royal court, and subconsciously felt close to him.
She knew that without the royal court, she would still be a flower girl who relied on her skin to make a living, and she might have gotten sick and died on the ship.
Do your best to help Zheng Yu.
One day, Zheng Yu suddenly appeared and told her that no matter who came to ask her, she would insist that she had never seen him.
【Master Zheng, why is this? 】
Zheng Yu: [It seems that someone has noticed it. 】
He wants to suspend the investigation and leave here first.
By chance, at this time, there were many searches outside.
Zheng Yu didn’t expect people to come so quickly.
At this time, the oiran caught him.
【You hide here first and I'll deal with it. 】
She pretended to have a relapse of madness and went out madly. However, she saw that these people outside were people from the government office, and the leader was Liu Changshi. If it was just like this, it would be fine, but she was horrified when she saw the twin sister token on Liu Changshi!
How come my sister’s token is on a man’s body?
Liu Changshi keenly noticed the changes in her eyes.
Seeing that the people were about to come over, the oiran gritted his teeth and tore off his clothes cruelly, and ran around with bare feet, cursing the king for being promiscuous in the court, so that he could not have a son. The king of the country could not give birth to a son, so why should it be strange that he could not give birth to a son? Crying, laughing, jumping and jumping.
Shen Tang's control over public opinion is not very loose, but he would only get a few slaps for this level of scolding to serve as a warning to others.
Oiran successfully lured these people away, and Zheng Yu escaped.
That night, the oiran was killed.
On the second day, the body was hung at the city gate.
Most of the people in Jinli County were extremely dissatisfied with the royal court and Shen Tang because of their poor reputation. The death of the oiran undoubtedly made Shen Tang's reputation even more infamous. Niu Er threw the body into a mass grave, and the female soldier Xiu Mu didn't know about the tragedy until she came back.
She buried the oiran's body in the ground.
Not long after, a man who looked exactly like the oiran appeared. She claimed that she and the oiran were twin sisters, and she had been looking for clues for a long time to find her, hoping to find out the whereabouts of her elder sister.
The female soldier hid part of the story and only told her about the death of the courtesan.
【I am sorry for your loss. 】
The oiran’s sister is also an oiran.
However, she is an official debt broker who specializes in helping big people with official debts and attracting merchants who come to them to borrow debts.
The female soldier frowned: [Official debt is not a good thing. 】
Let’s get out as soon as possible while we can.
The "Oiran" kept his cool and tried his best.
Why is it not a good thing? 】
The female soldier sighed and explained the oiran's previous judgment.
【You are her sister. Your sister says it is not a good thing, so you should not touch it. Big men eat people without spitting out their bones. You are still young now, save some money to redeem yourself as soon as possible. Nowadays, Hua Niang is not allowed to sell herself in Jinli County. I will pretend that I didn't hear what you said today. If you are caught next time, you will go to the Zhechong Mansion Prison for a few days. 】
The "oiran" only agreed verbally.
Female soldiers actually caught her several times during the anti-pornography and anti-illegal activities.
Hate that iron cannot be turned into steel.
The elder sister desperately wanted to regain her freedom, but the younger sister was greedy for the wealth provided by the flower boat and indulged in it, which is very annoying!
Because of the oiran's warning, the more the female soldier thought about it, the more she felt that official debt was not good, and she was ready to stop - the oiran was gone, and she had no goal of saving money. One month ago, it was accidentally discovered that the "oiran" had killed someone, and there was the body of a young man in the room.
【He wanted to insult me, but I accidentally killed him. 】
The female soldier looked silently at the wounds on the young man's body.
With so many fatal injuries, do you call this a miss?
The "Oiran", however, cried and begged her for help and not to report the crime. The female soldier, out of kindness to the "Oiran"'s sister, agreed to help hide it. When the man was being buried, a token fell from the man's arms. All the female soldiers knew the words on it.
【Inspectorate, Supervisory Censor, Zheng Yu】
For a moment, the female soldier's heart felt cold.

I still need to add some words, so I’ll refresh it later.
PS: I’ve finished it, let’s continue the three-in-one tomorrow. Please vote for me.
PPS: Yuan Liang likes to raise cats, and Wei Qi likes to raise babies. Both father and daughter have a bright future of losing their fortune_(:з∠)_
PPPS: Si Chen, a female chicken, is actually a biological mutation. If there is no rooster among a group of hens for a long time, some hens will turn into roosters. In ancient times, it was used to scold women for stealing power and disrupting government, but we have to see the essence of this word (*▽*)
