The first paparazzi in the Red Chamber

Shui Rong looked at King Huainan coldly: "You're drunk."

King Huainan shook Shui Rong's body, and patted his shoulder hard.

"Why are you so boring."

Shui Rong let King Huainan toss about without making a sound.

Huainan Wang Huang had enough, seeing that Shui Rong ignored him, he simply took a pot of wine and poured it directly into his mouth.Shui Rong stretched out his hand to stop him, and King Huainan stood up and avoided Shui Rong.

"What's going on?" Shui Rong asked with a louder voice.

Huainan Wang just smiled and didn't speak.

Shui Rong turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the housekeeper Luo Hongxi.

"My lord, he is in a bad mood, so I ask King Beijing to be considerate and try to persuade him more."

"Why is he in a bad mood, who did he see today?" Shui Rong asked.

Luo Hongxi took a look at their drunken prince, and told the truth about Huainan Wang's visit to Song Xi.

Water-soluble guessed that they must have clashed because of something, that's why King Huainan clamored to take revenge on Song Xi.Shui Rong sighed and asked Luo Hongxi to help his prince back.Luo Hongxi promised to rush to help, but was pushed away by King Huainan.

Huainan King looked at Shui Rong: "Do you want to play or not?"

"One plan can't be used for two purposes. If you play the same trick again, you will definitely miss your feet. Besides, is Song Xi someone you can afford? He is a serious uncle of the country, two brothers are both governors, and his sister is the queen. , can blow the pillow breeze in front of the emperor. As for you, you were born as a prince in the third generation of your ancestors, and you can inherit the title thanks to your father's military service and sacrificed his life. Hereditary, you will lose your title and become a duke in the next generation, so in comparison, I am better than you." Shui Rong explained.

"What are you talking about?" Although King Huainan was drunk and courageous, he was very clear in his heart.

"Let you recognize the reality." King Bei Jing glared at him.

"I only said that when I realized the reality. I am stronger than him, and I would have killed him without saying a word!" Huainan Wang's eyes turned red with anger.

"Then you should recharge your batteries and wait for the right time." Shui Rong warned him.

Huainan Wang calmed down for a while, then sighed coldly: "This county king is really aggrieved."

"You're still aggrieved, what about those ordinary people who are even more aggrieved than you?" Shui Rong grabbed Huainan King's arm and told him to go back and rest quickly.

"I grew up with him, but he doesn't miss our childhood love at all." After Huainan Wang finished speaking, he suddenly grabbed Shui Rong's arm, "Do you think Song Xi is a gentleman? In fact, he is a dignified villain!"

Shui Rong said again that King Huainan was drunk.

King Huainan laughed and poked Shui Rong's face, "You are so handsome, I advise you to be careful in the future and stay away from him, so as not to be accidentally eaten by that evil wolf."

Shui Rong naturally understands that King Huainan's so-called hungry wolf refers to Song Xi, and Shui Rong also vaguely understands the meaning revealed in his words, but he doesn't dare to confirm it, so he looks at King Huainan suspiciously, "Why do you say that?"

"Did you not watch the first issue of "Secret Stories Next Door"? What it said about him is true." Huainan Wang said.

Shui Rong was stunned for a moment, his eyes became sharper, and his grip on King Huainan became stronger, "What do you mean, Song Xi likes men?"

"He only likes men, I guess he can't be hard on women, hehehe..." King Huainan immediately laughed.

Shui Rong didn't think there was anything interesting about it. After helping King Huainan back to his room, he brought him a cup of tea, watched him drink it, and asked him: "Is what you just told me accurate? Is it true?" Out of jealousy towards others, deliberately exaggerating and framing others?"

"Bah! If there is even a little bit of falsehood, my descendants and grandchildren will be slaves and prostitutes!" Huainan King raised his hand and swore.

Shui Rong calmed down even more. He sat on the edge of King Huainan's bed, meditating without saying a word.

King Huainan took another sip of tea, put the cup on the small table, and asked Shui Rong what he was thinking.Shui Rong still didn't say a word, so he pushed him and asked him if he was deaf.

Shui Rong glared at King Huainan angrily, then got up to leave.King Huainan hurriedly grabbed Shui Rong's hand, apologized with a smile, and begged him to stay with him for one night, to talk with him and relieve his boredom.

"Don't dare, I'm nothing in your eyes." Shui Rong threw Huainan Wang away.

The King of Huainan was not annoyed, and he grabbed Shui Rong's arm with a stern face, and begged him not to leave with a smile.

Shui Rong moved his eyeballs, and sat down with a straight face, "I can stay if you want, you have to tell me why you are so sure that Song Xi has this hobby."

King Huainan's complexion changed slightly, he leaned back on the bed, then frowned and said indiscriminately, "It's been like this since I was a child, those of us who grew up with him all know that he doesn't want to be emotional with women."

Shui Rong: "You really don't know why?"

King Huainan looked at Shui Rong and shook his head hesitantly.

"You are so dishonest, do you take me as a friend? Forget it, let's go." Shui Rongfu stood up again, trying to trick Huainan Wang.

King Huainan hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I'll tell you, but you must remember not to leak this matter, unless Song Xi is dead. Otherwise, there will be good fruit for you."

King Huainan immediately thought of the late King Nanjing and shivered all over.

Shui Rong stared at King Huainan seriously, then grabbed his hand, and said sincerely, "Who am I, you don't know?"

"Okay," King Huainan sighed after he was half sober, and told King Beijing about the time when the children of the royal family got along with Song Xi, and the incident that they dare not mention again.

After Shui Rong finished listening, his whole face was in a state of shock for a long time before gradually returning to normal color.

"You guys did such a thing to him, no wonder." Shui Rong sighed, he couldn't imagine it.

"What kind of thing? Is it too much?" King Huainan glared at Song Xi, "It was just a childhood joke. As for making him bear grudges for so many years! King Nanjing is such a good person, but he is a bit blunt, and his mouth is not right. At one point, I brought up that matter during a banquet, but he caused him to die in a foreign land, and even the body has not been found. The Nanjing Palace is now extinct, without even an heir."

Shui Rong squinted at King Huainan, "Then you should be even more cautious in your words and deeds, and don't provoke him."

"That eye of yours saw that I provoked him. Look at my attitude towards him all these years, isn't it good enough? It's close to groveling!" King Huainan crawled on the couch, patting the couch with his hand willfully.

Shui Rong pulled the quilt to cover him, advised him to go to bed early, and don't think too much about it, we'll talk about it after he sobers up.

King Huainan immediately grabbed Shui Rong's hand, closed his eyes in a daze, and muttered to ask him to accompany him.

Shui Rong agreed, patted the back of his hand, and saw that King Huainan had fallen asleep before getting up and going out.Instructing the butler Luo Hongxi to remember to make sober soup for King Huainan the next day, he hurriedly disappeared into the night with a flick of his sleeves.

……

Censorship Desk.

After Jia She finished handling the chores accumulated in the past two days, he flipped through the first issue of "Secrets of Neighbors", saw the Song Xi incident mentioned above, and thought about the scene when they first met because of it, Jia She He couldn't help laughing.

So he shook his head, closed the book, and put it in the drawer.

"My lord, the King of Beijing Jing is here." Liang Leyun ran to pass the message.

When Jia Amnesty got up, he saw King Bei Jing walking in with a smile.After Jia Amnesty exchanged pleasantries with Shui Rong, he invited him to sit down and served tea.

King Bei Jing picked up the tea and sniffed it first, then frowned slightly, and turned to see Jia Amnesty's tea soup, just like himself.He was bold, and finished the tea in a few sips.Only then did King Beijing bring the tea to his mouth again, and took a sip in a gentle manner without any affectation.

"To bother Master Jia today, there is something I want to tell you. The sudden visit may offend me a little, so please don't take offense." Shui Rong smiled modestly.

Jia Amnesty had never had a deep relationship with King Beijing, but seeing that he was very polite despite his sudden visit, he had a better impression of him, so he asked King Beijing if he had anything to say.

"I said this, it's really more abrupt than coming to see you rashly like this. But after thinking about it last night, I still think I should tell you. After all, our two families have a deep friendship since our ancestors. I know Mr. Jia and Mr. Song are friends on a regular basis, so I have to remind you that Mr. Song’s love preferences, um, seem to be that he doesn’t like women. I don’t mean anything else by saying this, but I’m just worried that you will be in the future. It's good to have a few." After Shui Rong said, still a little embarrassed, he hurriedly stood up and handed Jia Amnesty, expressing that if his words offended him, please forgive him.

"Since I know you are kind, how can I bear to blame you, thank you before it's too late." Jia She smiled lightly and told him not to be polite.In fact, no matter how low-key he was with Song Xi, he couldn't hide it.What's more, the two of them have never deliberately kept a low profile, so it is not surprising that they were discovered, and Shui Rong is not the only one who knows.

When Shui Rong saw that Jia She heard what he said, he didn't show any surprise at all. It is expected that Jia She had already known about it.Now that he knew about it, he and Song Xi still had close contacts from time to time, and occasionally invited Song Xi to stay at the Rong Mansion, and Shui Rong could guess what would be involved with a little brainstorming.

Shui Rong felt slightly embarrassed, and hurriedly bowed his hands to apologize to Jia She, lamenting that he was really talkative.

"The prince of the county is too polite." Jia She said.

Seeing Jia Amnesty's calmness, Shui Rong felt a little admiration in his heart, and then saluted, promising that he would not let this matter out.

"I'm curious. Who told you about Mr. Song's hobby? I think your attitude is very positive, and there is no doubt that there is a fake. The source of this news must be very reliable." Jia Amnesty deduced.

Shui Rong was amazed by Jia She's observation ability, nodded and hurriedly said: "Based on the relationship between our two families, I really can't hide it from you, but out of a promise to my friend, I must keep the information secret from the person who reveals it to me."

Jia Amnesty nodded, not embarrassing Shui Rong.

As soon as Shui Rong left, Jia Amnesty asked people to investigate who Shui Rong had been close to recently.Knowing that it was the King of Huainan, Jia Amnesty casually talked to Song Xi after dinner.

Song Xi heard that it was the king of Huainan, and sneered, telling Jia Amnesty not to worry about it.

"I saw that Shui Rong didn't finish talking, and there was something else to do. I'm curious, how did the King of Huainan know your preferences? Didn't you say that you two only got together when you were young? Could it be that you were... not right, you I told you that I was the first person you fell in love with." Jia She stared closely at Song Xi's eyes.

Song Xi touched Jia She's face with a smile, "You are number one in everything."

Jia Amnesty knocked off Song Xi's hand, his face became hot.

"Aren't you happy?" Song Xi teased.

Jia She glared at him, telling him to be serious.

"It can't be done, and I'm planning to have a night of rambunctiousness."

After Song Xi finished speaking, he hugged Jia She, dense wet kisses immediately fell on Jia She's neck, spreading to his chest little by little...

The next day, Song Xi finished his official duties early and returned to the Song Mansion from the Wuying Hall.

Jia Yucun knelt outside the main hall of the Song Mansion.His body has already been cleaned, and he has changed into a coarse cloth, which can be regarded as clean and tidy.Seeing that Mr. Song finally came back, Jia Yucun kowtowed devoutly to make amends, saying that he would never make the same mistake again, and asked Mr. Song to spare the lives of him and his family.

"The accusation of punishing the nine clans is not just to be exonerated." Song Xi squinted at him, and then strode into the main hall.

"Caomin is willing to continue kneeling at the intersection of Tongtai Street to make amends to the world, to tell everyone in the city what he did to frame Mr. Jia, and to be scolded by everyone." After Jia Yucun finished speaking, he quickly kowtowed again and begged for mercy.

If this scene was seen by those who knew Jia Yucun, I'm afraid they wouldn't believe it.Jia Yucun can also be regarded as a Jinshi with some talents and ambitions. He has always been pretentious and has lofty aspirations.Even when he was destitute, he accepted Zhen Shiyin's relief, but it was only a light thank you, maintaining the character of a literati.But now he has shaved off his arrogance, and crawled on Song Xi's face without dignity like a pug, begging for mercy.

After a while, Heng Shu came out and sent Jia Yucun to go to Tongtai Street to kneel again, just as he said, until one day, no one in the capital used him to cause those rumors to frame Jia Amnesty, then he could stop .

Jia Yucun hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, and withdrew.

"You wait." Heng Shu took two bottles of medicine and some money to Jia Yucun, "If you are hungry after kneeling at night, use the money to buy food, if you feel cold and cough, eat the white bottle, once Five pills; if you feel abdominal pain and diarrhea, take the one in the celadon bottle, three pills at a time."

Jia Yucun was stunned for a moment, and looked at Hengshu puzzled.

Heng Shu hurriedly stuffed the things into his hands, "Don't die, you must live well until the matter is over. Otherwise, your price is to have someone else pay for you, and you don't even want to die after you die. What a good reputation."

Jia Yucun hurriedly clenched the things in his hands, nodded submissively, thanked Heng Shu, and then went to salute.

Heng Shu then went into the room and went back to Song Xi.Seeing that the master had no intention of speaking, she stood aside and waited for orders.

Song Xi finished writing the memorial in his hand, let it dry for a while, then closed it and put it on the table.

"Ask someone to watch Huainan King," Song Xi said.

Heng Shu hurriedly agreed, and then went out to give orders.

After Song Xi finished writing the last memorial, he threw the brush directly into the brush washer, sat behind the piano table instead, and played a piece of Fengqiuhuang.But it was like a rushing wind, with a fast pace, which made people feel anxious when they heard it.

After Hengshu finished giving his instructions, he stood at the door, and when the first song was over, he sent someone to Rongfu to inform Jia She that their master was not in a good mood.He turned around and entered the house, served tea, and still waited silently for his master.

Late at night.

Song Xi was about to take a rest when someone reported that Jia Amnesty had arrived.

Song Xi was wearing a snow-white undershirt, his black hair was hanging down on his chest, and there was a hint of joy on his beautiful face. He stood in the middle of the room, looking at the door with some expectation in his eyes.Seeing Jia She's figure really appeared in front of him, his expression was as indifferent as usual, but with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he stretched out his hand to welcome him.

Jia Amnesty took his hand and looked at Song Xi: "Let me see what's wrong with you."

"What, I've always been fine." Song Xi said lightly.

"You're not in the right mood. Ever since I mentioned King Huainan to you, you're not quite right." Jia Amnesty sat down following Song Xi's tugging, and he stretched out his hand to grab a strand of black hair on Song Xi's chest, which was smooth and smooth. Well, God even gave him such a special treatment for the quality of his hair, why is he in a bad mood.

Song Xi sighed and lay back on the couch.

Jia She turned to look at him, rubbed his chin and looked at him for a while, then said with a smile, "Let him get over the past, if you think about it, why worry about it, just don't think about it."

"Ah."

Song Xi responded, and grabbed Jia She's arm violently, pulling him into his arms.Song Xi buried his head in Jia She's neck, closed his eyes, and sucked in the breath of Jia She's body.After a while, his breathing became steady.Jia Amnesty didn't dare to move, and after waiting for a while, he heard Song Xi breathing shallowly, so he was expected to have fallen asleep.

Jia Amnesty opened his eyes in a daze for a while, and then fell asleep.

When Jia She woke up the next day, Song Xi was already wearing a luxurious purple robe, sitting at the table drinking tea refreshed.

Jia She rubbed his eyes, changed his clothes, ate breakfast in silence, and said goodbye to Song Xi.

Song Xi grabbed Jia She's hand, wrote two words in the palm of his hand, and watched him leave with a smile.Jia Amnesty blushed all of a sudden, glared at Song Xi, and then left.

Today is the day when Baoyu goes to Songshan Academy.

Jia's mother worked hard and mobilized the whole family to send them off.

Jia Mu was very reluctant. She hugged Baoyu's heart and soul and screamed for a long time, crying with tears in her eyes.Then he wiped his tears and asked Jia Amnesty to tell Baoyu a few words.

Everyone hurriedly told Jia's mother that the old man had not come back yet.

Jia Mu complained, "He was the one who asked for Baoyu at the beginning, but now he doesn't worry about it."

Jia Zheng was also there, and when she heard that Mother Jia only asked her eldest brother to tell her son, but didn't name herself, she felt a little unhappy, so she couldn't put on a face anymore, and pulled her face, not very happy.

Jia's mother then noticed that something was wrong with Jia Zheng, so she asked Jia Zheng to say a few words.

Jia Zheng hurriedly called Baoyu to come to him, and told Baoyu the truth, telling him how to study, how to cultivate himself, how to become a talent after he went to Songshan Academy.

Just halfway through Jia Zheng's words, there was a rumor outside that "The Elder Master is back".Everyone in the room immediately turned their attention to the door, and Jia's mother laughed happily, and no one was paying attention to Jia Zheng's situation.

Jia Zheng shut up embarrassingly, feeling extremely uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to show too much, and looked over like everyone else.

Baoyu finally stopped listening to his father's rationale, and breathed a sigh of relief, but he was also afraid that his uncle would reprimand him later, so he shrunk his neck and stretched his whole body.

After seeing Jia Mu, Jia Amnesty stopped Jia Mu's order and turned to look at Baoyu.Seeing Baoyu's nervous look, he smiled and told Baoyu: "Go to Songshan College and you will be the last one if you don't fall behind. If you do, uncle will give you a reward, which is what you want most. object."

Baoyu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly regained his energy. He looked at Jia Amnesty in surprise and asked, "Can uncle's words be true?"

"Of course. Don't do anything out of the ordinary, just make our family ashamed of you." Jia Amnesty added.

Baoyu smiled and sighed that it was simple, and immediately agreed, thanking his uncle happily.

Seeing this, Jia Zheng couldn't help frowning.Baoyu is his child, so he should listen to his teachings!Taking a step back, if the eldest brother's words are useful and instructive, Baoyu will just listen to them, but what the elder brother said just now is clearly to send his son away.

Jia Zheng then coughed twice to express his dissatisfaction.

When Baoyu heard his father's cough, he lowered his head sullenly, not daring to say anything more.

Jia's mother glared at Jia Zheng, then turned to Baoyu and said, "I'll just listen to your uncle when I go now. The most important thing is not to let yourself be wronged."

Baoyu hurriedly agreed with a smile, then said goodbye to everyone one by one, and got into the carriage.

Mother Jia asked everyone to leave.

Jia Zheng was unhappy and dissatisfied. After leaving Jia's mother's courtyard, he couldn't help complaining to Mrs. Wang about it.Mrs. Wang thought he was nagging about useless things in front of her, so she gently reminded Jia Zheng that if she had any opinions, she could talk to her elder brother.

Jia Zheng really came to Rongxi Hall, but he didn't dare to come too early.After meeting Jia Amnesty respectfully, he tactfully expressed his dissatisfaction.

"If the eldest brother dislikes the child for being too stupid, just leave it alone if you don't want to deal with it, or you can tell me to discipline him well. I really don't understand why the eldest brother said that about him, so that the child lost his desire to learn and improve. , won't it become more and more messy, and it will only be annoying when you grow up." Jia Zheng sighed.

"If you press hard, he will definitely be eager to learn and improve? Then you have told this child many times, why still don't like to study?" Jia She asked back.

Jia Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then muttered, "Some things can't be changed overnight. If you keep him under strict control, it will naturally have an effect after a long time."

In fact, the reason why Jia Amnesty gave Baoyu such instructions was because he felt that the child should not be forced too much.When a child enters an unfamiliar new environment, it will definitely take some time to adapt.And a child like Baoyu who was spoiled by Jia's mother at home should be treated with special tolerance, so that he can slowly adapt to Songshan Academy before making other requests.

However, if Jia Zheng doesn't understand these things, he doesn't understand them, and he doesn't ask him to understand them.

"Then you can take care of it, who is stopping you. I only expressed my opinion because the old lady asked me to say a few words. Otherwise, how do you discipline your son? It's my turn to intervene as an outsider?" Jia She sneered. , Send Jia Zheng to leave quickly.If he wants to be able to control his son, he can do it himself, and it is nothing to talk to him about these things.

Jia Amnesty said he was an outsider.

Jia Zheng immediately didn't dare to provoke him, and hurriedly apologized to Jia Amnesty.Jia Zheng knew very well that the most promising member of the family was his elder brother, and the second child's children would have to be protected by him in the future.If the two brothers really distinguish between the inside and the outside, it will be their second wife who suffers.

Jia Zheng repeatedly bowed his hands and saluted Jia Amnesty, busy saying that he was ignorant.

Jia Amnesty sneered.Looking at Jia Zheng's expression, he knew that Jia Zheng's apology was against his will.I also didn't want to argue with Jia Zheng, so I told him not to be an eyesore.

After Jia Zheng went back, he couldn't help complaining to Mrs. Wang again.Mrs. Wang listened, endured, and didn't say much.After Jia Zheng was put away, she went to the Buddhist hall to chant scriptures and calm down, otherwise she would really be forced to death by Jia Zheng's behavior.

……

Let's talk about Wei Daopo.

Jia Amnesty has already collected information and investigations through multiple means, and confirmed that Wei Daopo has been in and out of the residences of all the people on the sudden death list.

The most recent time was that Wei Daopo went in and out of Liu's mansion, and communicated with Liu Xingyun and his wife, Chen Shi.The couple prayed for their sick young son, and donated 300 taels of sesame oil to light the ever-burning lanterns in Wei Daopo's Taoist temple, which is said to keep their sick young son healthy and happy.

Mrs. Chen is well-known as a kind-hearted person in the Liu Mansion, and has donated money to help many poor people.She herself also believes in Buddhism, she doesn't like to kill animals, and usually only eats vegetarian food.

Jia Amnesty also inquired about this Chen's behavior in her natal family before she got married. She was a kind and soft-hearted girl.Jia She felt that this matter probably had nothing to do with the Chen family.

As for her husband Liu Xingyun, he is suspected, but the motive is not very clear.

Although this Liu Xingyun is clever and cunning, but because of this, he rarely conflicts with others in his daily affairs, and his relationship with his elder brother Liu Tongpan is considered good.Liu Xingyun is the third son of the Liu family, and the Liu family doesn't have any titles to inherit, so they say that the family has some property, even if the eldest son dies and the second son is the eldest, it's not up to him to share any more.

It was Liu Xingyun's attitude that day when he went out to beg someone to find the imperial doctor, which made Jia Shesheng suspicious, thinking that he didn't have [-]% intentions, but it can't be said that he would kill his elder brother just because of this.Unless it was because of some other grudge, Liu Tong sentenced him to bear the grudge, so he took revenge.

But all of these are Jia Amnesty's guesses, and they are not accurate.Such things as laying a voodoo are clean and quick, and are not easy to be noticed by others. Sometimes it is just a thought.So it doesn't necessarily mean that someone who looks like a bad person must have done this bad thing.As long as there is no evidence, you still can't just wrong a good person.

In the past few days, Jia Amnesty sent some people to investigate Liu Xingyun, and used various methods to trick Liu Xingyun and the servants around him, but they did not find anything suspicious.

Jia Amnesty also checked the relevant classics and learned about some methods and methods of planting Gu. In short, no matter what transmission method is used, most of the Gu poison is finally entered into the body through the mouth.

It is not easy to investigate the matter of drug administration.

Not to mention the Liu family, the other 15 people who were murdered were all difficult to find any useful evidence because of the long time interval.

At present, Jia Amnesty can only guess based on the relationship between people.

If you want to get evidence, you can only find it in Wei Daopo and Dr. Min.

Jia Amnesty's people have been keeping an eye on these two people for a long time, but these seven or eight days have passed, Dr. Min has been in his house recently, honestly treating people with minor illnesses.He can also cure some headaches and brain fever, and some homemade remedies provided, such as boiling water with ginger and licorice, are still effective.As for Wei Daopo, she has been practicing in the Taoist temple in recent days and has not gone down the mountain.

The two of them quieted down as if they had made an appointment.

……

On this day, Liu Tongpan came to thank Jia Amnesty with a thank you gift.

Just as Jia Amnesty was about to ask Liu Tongpan carefully about his condition on the eve of his strange illness, he immediately looked at him.

Jia Lian also came at first, but Jia Amnesty thought he was in the way and asked him to speak with Liu Tongpan before dismissing him.

When Jia Lian was mentioned, Liu Tongpan was full of praise, and told Jia She that the child's future in the Ministry of Internal Affairs was limitless.

"It seems to be born to do this job. Most of the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are complicated and complicated. Many officials assigned here will soon complain that it is difficult to do it. It is the Ministry of Internal Affairs that has been working for seven or eight years. The old man sometimes finds it hard to be considerate and forgets things. He is not like this, and he started in three days. Except for the previous two days, it seemed that something happened at home, and he always fell asleep when he was not mentally active. He has done a good job so far. Well, I never missed it." Liu Tongpan praised without hesitation.

Jia Amnesty: "I just ask you not to indulge him because of my relationship. The stricter the better. This kid doesn't remember beating. He must be led and beaten before he will walk the right path."

"Lord Jia is too modest, but the lower officials will keep in mind Master Jia's teachings, and supervise him more in the future." Liu Tongpan smiled respectfully, with a serious look in his eyes.

Seeing that Liu Tongpan was a business-like person, Jia She was happy on Jia Lian's behalf. Although Liu Tongpan was a bit rigid, with a superior like him who spoke the rules, Jia She could restrain the dissolute Jia She.

Jia Amnesty then asked him about Mrs. Wei Dao, and asked Liu Tongpan what impression he had of her.

"Wei Daopo?" Liu Tongpan frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head, "I don't have any impression, I don't care much about the affairs of the back house, it's all handled by the clumsy Jing."

"Then I will trouble Mrs. Liu to inquire with your lady after returning home. When Wei Daopo appeared in your mansion last time, there was no one who had contact with her. No matter who it is, the master or the servant, as long as someone talks to him We have met and talked alone, so make a list for me to see." Jia She said.

"My lord, what is this?" Liu Tongpan looked at Jia Amnesty with a puzzled face.

Jia Amnesty: "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. I suspect that your previous strange disease was not a real disease, but poisoned."

As soon as Liu Tongpan thought of the Taoist woman Jia She said, he immediately understood what was going on. He was so angry that he slapped the table, lamenting that someone at home used such witchcraft to harm him.

"But it's not necessarily so. Don't make a premature decision. So before you find out the matter, you have to keep your mouth shut and keep it secret."

Liu Tongpan hurriedly agreed, and when saluting Jia Amnesty, he was more respectful and serious.After a while, he came back to his senses and asked about Dr. Jia Shemin.If he was really poisoned by Gu, then Dr. Min who cured him might not be innocent, otherwise it would be such a coincidence that his prescription just happened to cure him.

After Liu Tongpan raised a question, he got the answer from Jia Amnesty's not-so-surprised expression.Liu Tongpan immediately stated that he must have secretly and carefully investigated in the mansion, and told Jia Amnesty later.

Not long after, Jia Amnesty received a report from Liu Tongjuan.

Wei Daopo accepted the invitation of her younger brother Liu Xingyun and his wife a month ago, and entered Liu's residence.When Wei Daopo was talking to Liu Xingyun and Chen Shi, she was always accompanied by four maids and two women, and the content of her speech was very clear, and there was nothing wrong with it.After that, she chatted with the women in Liu's kitchen, followed her to the kitchen, and ordered some pastries.After that, he left not long after, and didn't stay too long, so he didn't talk to anyone alone.

Jia Amnesty ruled out the suspicion of Liu Xingyun and his wife.

Jia Amnesty had always regarded Liu Tong's case as the same as the previous fifteen sudden deaths from strange diseases.

But is it possible that the Liu family is a special case this time?

For example, all 15 people died before, but this time Liu Tongpan had the same initial symptoms, but he was revived by a doctor surnamed Min.Is there a possibility? This is a new money-making model between Wei Daopo and Dr. Min. It happened to be discovered by Jia She when it was implemented for the first time.

Jia Amnesty asked Liu Tong carefully for the silver taels awarded to Dr. Min, and it turned out to be a full 5000 taels. He was grateful for Dr. Min's life-saving grace.

Although the Liu family's family background is not high, they have a rich family background, and they are a family that loves to accumulate virtue and do good deeds.When they usually donate money to the poor, they are always very generous.

If Wei Daopo and Dr. Min really partnered to choose someone to swindle money, a family like the Liu family who is not a high-ranking official but has a family background and money to blackmail would be easy to be selected.

Jia She felt more and more that Dr. Min and Wei Daopo were very cunning.

Wei Daopo usually earns tens of hundreds of taels of silver by persuading the female relatives to buy incense and oil, but she is not greedy enough, and she still has to do witchcraft to harm people to make a lot of extra money.Afterwards, their appetite may have grown, and they felt a little disdainful of the work of being instructed by others to harm others, and began to think of other ways, playing the trick of self-directing and acting.One pretends to practice Taoism, helping people to accumulate virtue and good fortune, but goes to harm people, and the other hangs the pot to help the world, saying it is to save people, but in fact it is extorting money from people.

The two cooperated tacitly, and it was a novel and unexpected way to get money in this way.

Jia She is more and more sure that Dr. Min and Wei Daopo have problems and connections.He then told the ghost third-class secret guards to guard them tightly and keep an eye on these two people.They have just blackmailed a large sum of money, and they may stop for a few days, but they will definitely not stop for long.

Jia Amnesty then asked Gui San and the others to sneak into Wei Daopo's and Dr. Min's residences to see if there was anything suspicious.If the evidence could be found directly, it would be a clean and easy process to deal with these two people.

Afterwards, the rewards of Gui San and others were disappointing.

The residences of Wei Daopo and Dr. Min are clean, not even a small dirty jar, let alone Gu poison.

Jia Amnesty could only wait patiently for the two to mobilize again before gathering evidence.

……

In a few days, Mrs. You from Ningfu wanted to show Jia Rong a lot, so Mrs. You asked Grandma Huang to help her.Grandma Huang didn't want to lose her place too much in front of Youshi and Rongfu's guests for this happy event of going to the door to get married.So Grandma Huang went out, planning to go to the jewelry shop on Tongtai Street to buy some nice jewelry to wear.

Grandma Huang had chosen the hairpin at the jewelry shop, asked someone to wrap it, and went out, but was suddenly bumped in the waist by a woman.

Grandma Huang yelled, and scolded the man for not having long eyes.The mother-in-law hurriedly saluted and apologized to her, and then she looked up at Grandma Huang, showing a horrified expression, then she put the fly in her hand into her arms, and hurriedly saluted and apologized to Grandma Huang , then turned around and left.

Grandma Huang snorted coldly, but she didn't take it seriously, and asked someone to push down on the sedan chair. As soon as she stepped in with one leg, she heard someone calling her from behind.

Grandma Huang turned her head and saw that it was the woman who bumped into her earlier.

"I see that there is a black cloud on grandma's eyebrows. Something unfortunate must happen within a few days. I accidentally bumped into grandma just now, and I couldn't bear to just go away like this. Here is a talisman. Granny, take it now. I charge you half a penny, and you don't have to care about whether you believe it or not, you just need to carry this talisman with you for three days, and disasters and difficulties will definitely be eliminated. Remember, remember!"

After the mother-in-law finished speaking, she handed a piece of talisman paper folded into a triangle to Grandma Huang.

When Grandma Huang heard that the woman said she was in trouble, she thought she was a charlatan who swindled money, and was about to ask someone to beat her up, blaming her for cursing herself.I don't want people to give me talismans for free, and don't take any money. This doesn't look like a liar.

"Really?" After Grandma Huang asked, she took the talisman paper regardless of what the mother-in-law answered.

Everyone is taboo about misfortune, and Grandma Huang believed in these things in the first place, so she would rather accept them to avert disasters than solve them.It is exactly as the Taoist woman said, if there is none, there is nothing to lose.

Grandma Huang was walking back in her sedan chair, but she ran into a donkey cart pulling hay on the way, bumped into the bearer carrying her sedan chair, and knocked down the sedan chair.Grandma Huang was in pain from the fall, and just as she was helped out of the sedan chair, a flower pot fell on her head, and it happened to land beside her, only three inches away from her.

Grandma Huang was so frightened that she looked up and saw that it was a three-story inn.

Even the waiter in this inn apologized repeatedly, but she couldn't slow down.Immediately, I thought of what the Taoist woman I met before said, and hurriedly asked someone to invite the Taoist woman back, and she must thank her well.

But I don't want the Taoist woman to hear about it, just say "goodbye by fate" and disappear.

Grandma Huang heard what her subordinates said, and she was even more sure that the Taoist woman was a fairy, and her calculation was extremely accurate, and she saved her life.Then two days later, I was still thinking about it.

On the third day, she sat in a sedan chair
