Encounter Qin Shihuang on a deserted island

Chapter 473 Seven People, Seven Deadly Sins

The minister's wife found a large pile of papers under the bed in the master bedroom.

After the popularization of fiber paper, it was also popular among ministers.

Many people use fiber paper to record what they see and hear.

Li Si is an example. No matter what he does, he likes to write it down.

When Chang Yu and the others arrived, Madam was sitting at the table crying.

"I don't know if these are useful," she pointed to the papers on the floor beside the bed.

Fusu walked over to calm her down, while Chang Yu and Zhao Jin walked to Chuanwan and knelt down to pick it up.

Some words can be understood, but some words cannot be understood, and the meaning and meaning are not the same.

Zhao Jin was on the sidelines translating.

"Today, XX was promoted."

"Today, XX has awarded a reward."

"Today, XX..."

Almost all records on paper are in a similar format.

Just looking at these words, you can feel the slow sourness.

"What is the job of this minister?" Chang Yu asked his wife back.

After the madam calmed down, she said that he was in charge of the relief supplies.

"The position in charge of disaster relief materials seems to be very glamorous, but in fact it can't do anything."

After the state treasury allocates funds and grants food, it must be verified clearly before it can be shipped out.

In other words, there is no money to be made in this position, otherwise the head of the position will not be guaranteed.

He is very envious and jealous of the awards and promotions of other ministers.

The position he is in is very important to Daqin, but it is also a position without any future.

Every year there are natural and man-made disasters everywhere, and the national treasury also releases disaster relief funds every year. However, such a large amount of money cannot be kept in the hands.

With the passage of time, his psychology has undergone some kind of distortion, so he is jealous of other ministers around him.

However, no one knows if you hold it in your heart, it is far better to write it in black and white and watch it to relieve your anger
The emergence of fiber paper allowed him to record that he was jealous of his position.

"But I don't understand." Zhao Jin shook the paper in his hand and asked, "What does this have to do with detection?"

All these piles of papers record his jealousy, which has nothing to do with the detection!
Chang Yu was also pondering for a while, and he couldn't think of any connection...Huh?Is it jealous?
"You said just now, which one is this?" Chang Yu raised his eyes and asked Zhao Jin.

"The seventh one!" Zhao Jin asked in confusion, "Did you think of something?"

The seventh minister, he wrote it down on paper, full of jealousy in his heart.

what does this mean? !

Chang Yu had some guesses in his mind and needed more evidence.

"Come on, let's go to the home of the sixth minister!"

Take one of the papers on the ground, bid farewell to the sad lady and leave straight away.

When he arrived at the sixth minister's home, he ignored his body and went straight to his bedroom.

Also like the seventh lady, she is drowning in extreme sadness and cannot extricate herself.

Asking Fusu to comfort her, Chang Yu scanned the room left and right, as if looking for something.

Zhao Jin was very sensible, and ran to look under the bed, but there was nothing.

"What are you doing under the bed?" Chang Yu asked very strangely.

"I thought..." Zhao Jin smacked his lips, without making any excuses.

"Master Hou, what are you looking for?" After Fusu's comfort and persuasion, Madam's mood eased a little.

Madam also knew the reason for their visit, and she said that she would try her best to help.

"I didn't find anything," Chang Yu was very puzzled. Could it be that his guess was wrong?
The room was very tidy, not at all as he expected... Maybe he was thinking too much.

"I didn't find what I wanted to see." Chang Yu sat opposite his wife and asked how his usual husband behaved.

"Lazy." The first sentence is 'lazy, complain about how lazy he is, but it makes me sadder because of the memories.

"That's right!" Chang Yu slapped his thigh, and everyone looked at him in surprise, saying right in front of his wife? !

"Ahem!" Realizing that the atmosphere was not right, Chang Yu slowed down and continued to ask how lazy he could be.

This kind of laziness is not in behavior, but in thinking. It is hard to say how the specific limit is.

However, he was indeed lazy, and thanks to him being a minister with hundreds of servants serving him, he did not change much.

When Madam wanted to continue talking, Chang Yu raised his hand to stop her: "Okay Madam, I already know what I want to know."

"Don't worry, I will definitely find out the murderer and give you an explanation, please forgive me." After thanking him, he left immediately.

Walking out of the gate of the mansion and walking on the empty street in the heavy rain, Fu Su and Zhao Jin were very puzzled: "You just asked a few words..."

"The seventh place is jealousy."

"The sixth place is laziness."

"Guess what the fifth one is."

Chang Yu said something that was confusing.

Fu Su and Zhao Jin looked at each other, and both could see the doubt in each other's eyes: "How do we know that!"

"I'll tell you the truth." Chang Yu said mysteriously.

"The fifth minister, if I'm not wrong... is a fat man who can eat a lot of fat people."

Fusu and Zhao Jin didn't ask any further questions, so let's wait and see what the result will be.

Soon he came to the fifth minister's mansion, but Chang Yu didn't go in: "You go in, just come out and tell me what happens."

"Okay!" Fusu and Zhao Jin went straight in.

There were many guards in front of the mansion, so I wasn't worried that Chang Yu would be in danger outside.

"Master Hou, don't stand in the rain, come up and take shelter!"

The guard standing under the eaves persuaded Chang Yu not to damage his body.

"nothing."

Chang Yu smiled lightly and waved his hands, standing in the rain and feeling the cold, so that he could keep his mind clear.

The Marquis had already said so, and they couldn't say anything more. They were all muttering about something.

It's nothing more than that it's raining when this kind of thing happens, which makes people feel panicky or something.

After waiting for less than half a stick of incense, Zhao Jin and Fu Su ran out from inside.

With a weird expression, he frowned slightly and said, "Master Hou, you guessed wrong, he is not fat."

"Oh?" Chang Yu frowned slightly, feeling an indescribable sense of depression, and was interrupted just as he was about to speak.

"Although he's not fat, he's very greedy." Fusu's tone was very serious, and Chang Yu knew his guess was right when he heard it!

'Eat' does not mean to eat, but another 'eat', which means greed.

The fifth minister, if he hadn't died, no one would know that he used his power to covet so much wealth!
"Master Hou, the value of the gold, silver and jewels he 'eat' may surprise you!"

Even Zhao Jin couldn't bear to sigh, he had never seen so many treasures in his life!
"My thinking is correct. The fifth person is a corrupt official, which corresponds to Taotie."

"Glutton?" Fusu knew that this kind of strange beast also happened to represent greed.

"Master Hou, I don't understand..." They both looked at each other in dismay, not understanding how they came to the conclusion.

"How should I put it?" Chang Yu pondered for a moment before saying, "Let's put it this way...it's a group of seven people."

Of the seven ministers who were killed, the seventh corresponds to extremes, the sixth corresponds to laziness, and the fifth corresponds to gluttony.

The fourth, third, second, first... I guess they correspond to rage, greed, lust, and pride respectively.

"Seven people? What is that..." Fusu raised his eyes thoughtfully, and asked, "So what does it matter if we find the murderer?"

"Of course it has something to do with it!" The corners of Chang Yu's mouth twitched slightly, and he had already seen through the clouds and mist to see through the essence: "The big fish is about to surface under the guise of their deaths."

The seven dead ministers correspond to the seven deadly sins, which shows that the other party's layout is orderly, rather than buying people randomly.

Starting from seven people, look for people with matching interests...Use them as fishing rods, fishing lines and fish to catch a big fish!
