Datang cat raising hand letter

The atmosphere in the East Palace has been very good recently.

Whether it is the ministers who come and go or the ministers who have been serving in the palace, they all feel this way.It's just that such a good mood froze after the body of Empress Changsun continued to decline.

Empress Changsun's body has always been weak, and it happened that Sun Simiao was there to rescue her.But now the people sent by the saint to invite Dr. Sun have gone twice, but they all returned without success.

They could not find any trace of Sun Simiao.

The sage was naturally annoyed, so he could only send out a yellow list to summon the world's genius doctors, and quickly sent more people to search for Sun Simiao.

Donggong would visit Empress Changsun every day, but it was not good after all. Every time she came back, her mood was depressed, even with her usual gentle and calm smile, people couldn't help feeling afraid.

Even Li Tai has no intention of flirting with the eldest brother at this moment, no doubt because he is worried about the health of Empress Changsun.

In the first ten days of July, someone in Chang'an revealed the yellow list, and he was immediately welcomed into the palace.

...

Quanzhou Prefecture, Nan'an County.

Yu Yu and Fang Tianjian sat opposite each other, and between them was a map that looked flat.It was very scribbled, and it looked like it was drawn in a hurry. Yu Yu carefully identified it for a long time, and the other party Tian said: "Such a map is too vague, and it is still difficult to determine where it is."

Fang Tianjian said with a sneer: "Lang Jun is right, but he has roughly figured out the direction. Thanks to Lang Jun's sharpness."

Yu Yu shook his head, "This matter is just a coincidence. The Liu family brothers are doing business in Zhangzhou and Quanzhou. You have searched all over Quanzhou. If you don't go to Zhangzhou, there may be traces. Even if I don't say it, you should It's your goal."

He handed the hard-won map to Fang Tianjian, and said calmly: "Although His Highness did ask you to wait to follow my instructions, it is more useful to adapt to these things. You don't have to run back and forth just to get along with me. I report."

Fang Tianjian shook his head and said: "Although I am tired, you also know that those of us who work outside are most afraid of being out of control. And if something happens, if you know a thing or two, you will be spared." The loss of these messages."

Yu Yu frowned, "It will take at least ten days for you to return from Zhangzhou. The time on the way is wasted."

Fang Tianjian laughed, cupped his hands and said, "I know that Mr. Wang is worried, but now those sons and daughters are still staring at me, so I'm free. Are the ones I left for you still obedient?"

"If you discuss how to communicate with the people left behind in the future, I will send someone to get the news of the return and return. Don't draw out the manpower yourself." Yu Yu glanced at Fang Tianjian lightly, " There are very few people like Liu Shizai in Nan'an County, so don't worry about my safety."

Yu Yu pointed straight to the reason for Fang Tianjian's return, and said: "I don't know what orders your Highness gave you, but if the people around me can't protect me, even if you run thousands of miles away to worry, it won't help. Why don't you focus on tracking, this is what you are good at."

Fang Tianjian bowed, "...follow your orders."

He waved his hand to let Fang Tianjian go to rest first, and Yu Yu knew that he would set off again tomorrow.

When the house was quiet, Yu Yu grinded the magic water, and slowly slid out the map just now.Although his memory is not outstanding, it is still easy to memorize a simple picture silently.

The two strongholds dug out from Xu Liu's mouth have already been touched, but it is a pity that when Xu Liu did not come back, the stronghold probably sensed something, and it would be better to believe that their cautious attitude made them evacuate cleanly .There were not many clues that could be used, and after that, Xu Liu was taken away by Fang Tianjian and his party, and then he also revealed some things intermittently.

This direction of Zhangzhou is indeed a breakthrough.

It is said that this map was taken from a dying man, and that man was in charge of the reception.It stands to reason that this map should be the way to trace to the old nest, but the premise is to be able to understand the meaning represented in it.

The most obvious one is naturally a mountain-shaped pattern, but there is a small triangular icon on top of that seemingly mountain range. What does this imply?

Yu Yu couldn't figure it out for the time being, but he didn't keep the transcribed map, but quickly tore it up and threw it in the brush wash, letting the ink stains merge with the water waves.

According to the previous guess, what would a person who is familiar with the development of the matter do?

Yu Yu thought about it.

With his fingers, he slowly took out the soaked paper in the brush washer, and placed it on the tray beside him.Recently, the price of books has gone from being unattainably expensive at the beginning to falling slowly recently. It is said that the method came from Chang'an, the capital city, and the speed of printing books is much faster than before.

The printing speed is fast and good, and the prices of books that were originally high have gradually come down.

Expensive is still expensive, but you can buy one or two books if you bite your teeth.

Yu Yu stared at the balls of paper firmly. From the initial woodblock printing to the later moveable type printing, it can be regarded as a change and progress, so it is necessary to achieve the equal and fair printing as Xu Liu said. Improvement, what needs to be paid during this period?

Change and progress will always bring hidden pain.

For example, the advancement of printing means that some bookstores have been hit hard. Before that, their purchase price was much higher than it is now, and the cost cannot be recovered.And how much does it take to change a system, or the entire country?

If we can really achieve the world of harmony in Xu Furong's notes, then this kind of effort may be worthwhile.But the "sacrifice theory" made Yu Yu especially disliked.

If a weak, simple existence can be easily sacrificed, then some persistence is meaningless.

The so-called change and progress must be done in a grand, thorough, and destructive way... So what is more destructive than starting a war?

He tapped on the table with his fingers.

war...

Yu Yu recalled the appearance on the map again, and there must be a reason for the triangle symbol.

...

"Has the coal washing plant been built yet?"

Even though it was late summer and early autumn, the temperature in the mountains and forests was still a bit cold, but it was different here.But everyone who is doing work is naked, with bare arms and sweating profusely.

The terrain here seems to be relatively flat, and several tall blast furnaces have already been erected, and it is unclear what they are going to do from a distance.Underneath are the people coming and going, the scorching heat makes people sweat uncontrollably, and the result of such hard work is a lot of smelted steel.

Liu Shichang stood under the tree with his hands behind his back, listening to Uncle Bai's answer beside him, "It's already being tested, and if it succeeds, the production will continue to increase."

Hearing this, he nodded in satisfaction, and said in relief, "Uncle Bai has worked hard."

After Liu Shichang walked this place once, he took Xu Liang to another place along the opened path.On the surface of this mountain, he bought it to plant fruit trees, but in fact, many places have been vacant inside.This one is used for smelting, while the other is Liu Shichang's more focused training ground.

Xu Liang followed behind Liu Shichang and said: "The two points that were stationed in Quanzhou earlier have been withdrawn, and we will go to investigate afterward. It seems that we have really been discovered."

Liu Shichang frowned, "Tell me carefully."

Xu Liang briefly explained the previous situation.

"You mean that none of the intelligence personnel sent to investigate in the counties came back except the one from Yongchun County?" Liu Shichang focused, "The one from Dehua County is easy to say, after all, he sacrificed himself to assassinate the county magistrate. Then Nan'an didn't suffer anything, yes What happened?"

Xu Liang shook his head, "The person named Xu Liu disappeared directly. I don't know if he defected or was caught privately."

Liu Shichang said seriously: "Xu Liang, our feedback speed is still too slow. Xu Liu should have happened in the first month, but the stronghold didn't start to suspect until March or April? Even if the chaos lasted until March, Xu If Liu doesn't return in time, he should be considered a defector and quickly remove everything he knows."

Xu Liang leaned back, "Yes. But there was no trace of investigation until April and May, which shows that Xu Liu has been holding out for a long time. The brainwashing of the previous remarks is still useful, and perhaps it can be used more intensively."

Liu Shichang's seriousness gradually dissipated, and he said with a light smile, "Xu Liang, you are too serious. How can this be considered brainwashing?" Just for fun.

After walking for a while, they finally passed through many obstacles and spied another spacious and flat plain.On this place hiding in the mountainside, there is a neat and uniform team standing.Under the leadership of the coach, he is trying his best to temper himself, and Liu Shichang can't help showing a smug smile due to the enthusiastic training.

From the initial nearly one hundred people to the current number, he has spent a lot of effort, and now has the current results, why is he not happy?

If it wasn't for the wrong timing... Liu Shichang rubbed his chin with a gloomy expression.

There always seemed to be something wrong between this history and the history he knew.It made him wonder if some damned person wasn't dead...or was he the factor?

Empress Changsun and Li Chengqian, these two are the most obvious targets.

"Where is Miracle Doctor Sun?"

Liu Shichang asked suddenly.

Xu Liang quickly replied like a know-it-all, "Before we left the station, he was checking Bai Niang's pulse."

Recently, Liu Shichang's energy has been focused on his career, but he has somewhat neglected the women in his backyard.He said in surprise, "What's wrong with Bai Niang?"

Xu Liang said: "It seems to be pregnant."

Liu Shichang was taken aback for a moment, then elated.Since he started hanging out with women, no matter how many women he has, no one has shown signs of pregnancy, which makes him a little worried whether he is...

This is really good news.

Li Shichangxing hurried back.

The deep mountain house.

Sun Simiao calmly twiddled a silver needle, slowly pulling out the end of the needle.The gentle woman who was needled finally breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't dare to touch the needle just now, and said in a low voice: "Old Immortal, can I keep this child?"

"Nurture." Sun Simiao said flatly, "If you can stay after three months, you will be able to keep it."

Bai Niang's face was a little pale, she sobbed and held back forcibly, "I will obey the old god's orders."

Sun Simiao gave her a prescription and passed it to the servants in the house.Picking up his medicine box and walking out, he happened to bump into Liu Shichang who was rushing back all the way.

When Liu Shichang saw that it was Sun Simiao, the joy on his face subsided a bit, and he said respectfully, "The old god is well."

Sun Simiao said quietly, "I'm not good."

He swept his eyes towards the two pillar-like big men behind him, snorted coldly, and flung his sleeves away.

Liu Shichang really has a lot of skills to make the old god who has a gentle personality and abide by his manners look like this.He touched his nose, and of course he knew that Sun Simiao didn't care about his nose or eyes.

Sun Simiao was forcibly taken out of his hermitage by him.

This old fairy is said to have good looks and a childlike face. Liu Shichang has heard a lot of rumors in later generations, so he is naturally very curious about him.And even if it wasn't for these two reasons, he would have to imprison Sun Simiao in a place he knew.After all, in the year when Empress Changsun was supposed to die, it was Sun Simiao who conditioned her body so that Empress Changsun could still live to this day!

Liu Shichang stepped into the door with a smile on his face, but said in his heart, those variables must be wiped out first!

...

In July and August, it is already autumn.

The cool autumn is very comfortable, even the quarrels on the streets are much less, and there are fewer trivial matters in the county government.

And Nan'an County is also used to the black beast that occasionally follows the county captain.

Even a three-year-old child would ask his parents tenderly while being afraid, "Can I touch it?"

The father and mother, who were cast with close and trusting eyes by their own children, silently hugged the nonsense child and leaned back. As the saying goes, you can't touch the ass of a tiger!

Even if it doesn't look like a tiger, a beast that can tear apart a horse's belly in an instant must be extraordinary.

Yu Yu never asked Li Chengqian why and how he became an incarnation. The world always has secrets, and even he has some secrets that cannot be explained to outsiders.

But right now...

When his sleeve was torn again, Yu Yu looked at the big mountain boy who was spitting out the rags as if nothing had happened, surrounded by the good-natured laughter of the house servants.

Someone said: "County Captain, did you feed it less recently, I think it has been a little restless these two days."

Another said, "Could it be that it's in heat? I heard that beasts usually..." Before he finished his unrestrained words, he stopped in the eyes of the beast staring indifferently, and rushed behind others in two or three steps. .

Then there was a series of footsteps pushing and shoving each other.

"You kid provoked it yourself, why are you hiding behind me?"

"Go, go, go, Liu Da is really making others suffer, what if the target is diverted?"

"What are you afraid of? Isn't the county lieutenant here?"

Although they were still a little afraid of the beast, as long as the county lieutenant was around, they would be safe.In their hearts, Yu Yu was obviously a reliable animal trainer. Because of this, even if they often had to have close contact with Mr. Dashan and endured Mao Mao's fear, they could still accept it.

Yu Yu touched the gap in the cuff, and reasoned with the covetous beast, "This is already my No. 13 piece of clothing this month, and you're going to wipe everything out." He doesn't even dare to wear business now Clothing, after all, if you wear it and then tear it, you will get a headache and how to mend it.

Dashan Gongzi squatted behind Yu Xie as if he didn't hear it, watching Yu Xie with his body during the autopsy with some boredom.

Recently, the county government was busy with an old case. In order to determine the method of death of the deceased, the relatives of the deceased were finally relieved and willing to let the coffin be opened for an autopsy, but they must also be present to avoid damaging the body.

However, the corpse that had been dead for many years had actually decomposed long ago. When the corpse was opened, a dozen needles were found directly from the white bones.Some of the needles even went into the bone, and this is another discovery.

Some of the relatives of the deceased wailed loudly after seeing such a tragic scene, and some of them turned pale and panicked.

Yu Yu immediately arrested someone for interrogation, but it turned out to be an old story. In fact, the mother-in-law hated her daughter-in-law for giving birth to two daughters in succession.

She originally wanted to kill both her granddaughter and granddaughter, and then force Erlang to take a concubine to enter the house, but she didn't expect that after she actually killed someone, she would start to have nightmares every night, and she would not dare to do anything to her little granddaughter again.

Today, the old woman looks tired and old, at least 20 years older than people of the same age.

The daughter-in-law fell to the ground crying, and the son, Mr. Lang, was shocked and in a dilemma.

Yu Yu had a cold and straightforward temperament, so he directly ordered the old woman to be imprisoned, and the specific charges and punishments were to be decided by the Ming government.

The old woman's family fell to their knees, begging for the old woman.Even the father, Mr. Lang, couldn't help but said: "Lieutenant Yu, my mother is indeed wrong, but she has been punished by conscience for so many years, and I really don't want to see my mother suffer at this age. ah……"

Yu Yu said indifferently: "How much is a catty of conscience worth?"

The middle-aged gentleman was a little dazed by his question.

His wife originally had beautiful makeup, a neat and elegant appearance, but after crying, her makeup was already worn out, but her gentle and beautiful face could be vaguely seen.She clenched the handkerchief tightly in her hand and said sharply: "County Lieutenant, I don't recognize it. If you kill people and don't pay for your life, it's a shame!"

"Xiu Niang, you, she is our mother!"

The middle-aged man turned pale with shock, and immediately his voice became hurried.

"Isn't Li'er your daughter?" Xiu Niang cried blood, "Didn't the dozen or so emotional needles pierce your body, and the pain can't hurt you! Do you think your old lady has been tortured by conscience for ten years?" , what is that? Maybe it's just Li'er who comes back to see her every night!"

Yu Yu seldom participated in such family ethics dramas, but he looked at the relatives of the middle-aged man in front of him, all of whom were begging for mercy, and the lady named Xiu Niang was a bit lamentable.

"You justified your mother in front of me, because you think the law is a joke?"

Yu Yu quietly interrupted the middle-aged man's tirade on morality.

The cold-faced county captain has long been a well-known title in Nan'an County. As soon as Yu Yu's indifferent words came out, cold sweat dripped down the back of the middle-aged man, and the languid head who had been squatting behind the county captain had been squatting. A lazy beast, he really didn't dare to utter another word.

Seeing that he had finally calmed down, Yu Yu said to Xiu Niang: "How about her punishment, she needs to be handed over to the Ming Dynasty. At that time, you should be summoned to discuss in the hall..." His eyes swept over those present with different faces. The other person said, "Today... your words and deeds, I have ordered people to record them all. If you go to the court and withdraw your confession without evidence, you will be sentenced one by one according to the law."

He made a threat without haste, and then took a step back to let the people in the prison handle it again. The body as one of the evidences had to be transported to the county government again, and then buried again after the sentence was sentenced.

After the matter was over, and only the people in the yamen were left, they looked at each other and looked at the county lieutenant who was walking away to appease Mr. Dashan, and then someone said in a low voice: "The cold appearance of the county lieutenant just now is really scary."

Fang Yuan worked hard all afternoon, his body was covered with sweat stains, and he was a little impatient with the heat, so he immediately said: "If your mother also kills your hungry baby, don't you think your mother is right? She was exonerated?"

The pawn hesitated for a while, then whispered: "My mother will not kill my daughter, my baby is so cute."

"That's it." Fang Yuan said angrily, "I think if the county magistrate didn't open his mouth just now, that Zhang Sheng might beat that embroiderer! What a dog, he can't protect his own children, this kind of person Not fit to be a father."

"I think it's the embroiderer who insisted on opening the coffin for an autopsy after guessing the truth..."

"It's really possible. I heard that it's not allowed for the first time."

The whispered communication later did not affect Yu Yu and Mr. Dashan's gaze.

He looked suspiciously at Dashangongzi's current appearance, squatted down and snorted his big head, and said with some concern: "Is something wrong?"

As the body becomes bigger, the number of appearances of Da Shan Gongzi will decrease accordingly, so Yu Yu has actually touched the context of it.But recently he appeared so frequently that Yu Yu had to think that he was using this to restrain something... Although he was not sure, after the so-called playfulness of Mr. Dashan, his mood would indeed be more stable.

The animal pupils looked at Yu Yu fixedly, so deep that they seemed to be full of hostility.

The beast raised its head to the sky and screamed, rubbed its big head in Yu Yu's arms, and rushed out.

Yu Yu stood there silently, walked back after a while, and went back first with the people from the county government.

...

Lizheng Hall.

Empress Changsun's muffled cough sounded from time to time, and the female servants who came in and out couldn't help but feel their hearts tighten when they heard the cough.

Doctors who had just announced their rankings from all over the country were sent to Chang'an, but those who needed to be used were only a small number, and they were often useless.There are only a few who can do a little bit, the most notable of which is a middle-aged doctor named Hu Ermei.

When Dong Gong appeared at the gate of the Lizheng Hall, Hu Ermei was arguing with several medical officers in the outer hall.His Highness the Crown Prince, who was dressed in court clothes, just glanced at it lightly, walked past amidst the sound of greetings, and went to the inner hall to visit Empress Changsun.

Hu Ermei's eyes subconsciously followed the East Palace, and after his back disappeared, a medical officer said: "His Royal Highness really cares about the safety of the empress."

"Oh, it's mother and child after all. The queen's condition..."

Hu Ermei echoed a few words, and an imperceptible smile appeared on his plain face.

In the inner hall, there was a different kind of silence.

Due to the health of Empress Changsun, very few people could come to visit, except for the heirs born of the Empress, only people from the eldest grandson's family could come.Therefore, apart from the queen's vague cough, there was no other movement in the hall.

Empress Changsun looked better today, she was lying on the soft couch reading a book, when she heard the footsteps of the prince coming in, she shook her head helplessly and sighed, "Didn't it tell you to focus on state affairs, so you don't have to come every day?"

The prince sat down beside the eldest grandson empress, and smiled gently: "Mother, state affairs are important, but your body is also important, this is not contradictory."

Empress Changsun covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed, then pinched the handkerchief in her hand and said to him, "You look gloomy lately, don't say it's because of my body. Gao Ming, your brows are wrinkled." She said softly with.

Li Chengqian said: "Don't miss me, Auntie. I heard that Auntie's stomach is not good recently?" He glanced at the handkerchief that was tightly held by Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun laughed, "Why are the roles reversed? In the past, I cared about your body and often asked about the situation in the East Palace. Now it's Gao Ming who worries about me. It's just that it's a little boring recently. According to Dr. Sun's previous saying, eat less. It’s not necessarily bad to eat more.”

The eldest grandson was much thinner than before, and her pale face made her look very sick.The prince raised his hand to cover her with a blanket, and said lightly: "Is it after changing the prescription?"

The eldest grandson thought about it carefully, and he was right.

"However, after changing the prescription, I feel much more energetic." Empress Changsun said, "You and Qingque are having trouble again?"

The prince said: "It's just some gossip, but it's not serious. Compared with the past, it can only be regarded as a small fight."

The eldest grandson said helplessly: "Qingque is proud and arrogant, you are not a temper that loves to suffer. Your Majesty..."

"Aniang, these things can be mentioned later." Li Chengqian's smile faded away.

Right now, Empress Changsun's body is the most important thing.

Empress Changsun paused for a moment, her gaze skipped over the floating light in the air, she was a little dazed, and after a long time she slowly said: "Gao Ming, I'm afraid it will be too late." She said lazily and lazily.

Princess Jinyang ran out holding the hem of her skirt.

What I just overheard echoed in the ears of the little princess, and eventually became words that could not be escaped.

...

In September, it rains.

Yu Yu walked in the rain holding a paper umbrella, and there were shops on the street asking him to come in to hide from the rain, but he shook his head politely.

This time he went to visit Bai Shuang's situation.

Bai Shuang was having a hard time moving around now, and there were a lot of people coming in and out of the county government office, even in the inner government office, they were crowded together with other people.After all, the Nan'an County Government Office was really too dilapidated, so Yu Yu made the decision to let Bai Shuang and Cheng Erding move out temporarily, and he rented a quiet small yard for them.

It's just that in this way, Yu Yu can only go out more if he wants to visit Bai Shuang.

Today, when I went out in my free time, I saw dark clouds in the sky, so Yu Yu brought an extra paper umbrella with me, which came in handy.He returned to the county government with an oiled paper umbrella, and Menzi said with a smile: "It's a coincidence that the county captain encountered this heavy rain."

Yu Yu only said, "Have the people from the workshop gone out today?"

Menzi said: "I went out before the rain, it should be to measure the water level."

Yu Yu nodded, put away the oil-paper umbrella and went in.Walking along the Chaoshou corridor to the inner office, many people greeted him along the way. When he returned to the courtyard, he saw a young man squatting by the threshold of the house watching the rain.

"Xu He, it's raining."

Yu Yu called Xu He, who was fascinated, back to his senses, leaned the oil-paper umbrella outside the door, and stepped inside.Xu He came in after him, took out a thick envelope from his skirt and handed it to Yu Yu, "Mr., this is the news I got this time."

Xu He was one of the people Fang Tianjian left behind for him.

Although Xu He is thin and weak, he has the upper hand when fighting with Cheng Erding.

Yu Yu disliked that he was a bit wasteful by his side, but Tian Jian's attitude was very tough on this point, maybe it was a secret order from His Highness.

Yu Yu took it over, and said to the smiling Xu He, "Go and change this clothes first."

Xu He tugged at his half-soaked clothes, smiled and stepped back.Because once it rained, the house would be very dark, so Yu Yu took the envelope and went to the window to open it.

Most of the things in it were not letters, but either a messy map or some heavy fragments.But this time Yu Yu was a little dazed looking at the folded portrait in his hand.

What is this kind of weapon that looks a bit bent and can hold a boomerang at both ends?

This looks a little familiar.

Yu Yu was lost in thought, he felt as if he had seen these things somewhere.

He first took this image back, and then continued to scroll down, at the bottom was Fang Tianjian's dictation, and then he didn't know who wrote it.Left but it can't be Fang Tianjian's handwriting, after all, what he wrote himself the first time, in the end even he himself couldn't understand it.

After Yu Yu finished reading, he stacked the two things together, and heard Xu Qing's cry from outside.

"Lang Jun?"

Yu Yu leaned against the window and said calmly, "What's the matter?"

"The Ming Palace invites you to go over there." Xu Qing said.

Yu Yu put all the things in the drawer, then went out, and walked along the corridor to the courtyard of the Ming Mansion.Today is Xiu Mu, both Yu Yu and Zheng Mingfu are wearing ordinary clothes, looking much more at ease.

Seeing Yu Yu come in, Zheng Shouxuan waved to him with a smile, "Come here, this is the good tea I just received, you can taste it with me." In fact, drinking tea is fake, playing chess is real.

Zheng Shouxuan is also a chess fan, but it was really difficult to find someone who could play chess with him in the county government traditional Chinese medicine. After knowing Yu Yu's chess skills are good, Zheng Shouxuan often asks Yu Yu to come over to play chess together.

He is good at making tea. After scalding the teacup, the boiling hot water is poured into the teacup, and the faint fragrance spreads out.The fragrance of tea and the benzoin that Yu Yu used to use blended together, and the fragrance was slightly sweet and refreshing.

Yu Yu looked at the chessboard that had been set up, and took the tea cup that Zheng Shouxuan handed over, "How many games will Mingfu play today?"

Zheng Shouxuan said with a smile: "It's natural to let Chiwu go home happily."

Yu Yu: ... the one who enjoys himself should be Zheng Shouxuan himself.

It's just that Yu Yu doesn't reject playing chess, and he can clear his mind well when playing chess.

The two colors of black and white are glued on the chessboard.

Zheng Shouxuan said while drinking tea: "You caused me a lot of trouble before." He checked the position while talking, and played with the chess pieces.

Yu Yu tilted his head and said nonchalantly, "Could it be that Zhang Sheng?"

There is only one case that can be regarded as troublesome recently, after thinking about it.

Zheng Shouxuan said quietly: "Who else could he be? This kid is simply a foolish and filial person. He has been begging his mother for mercy. I really don't want to see him anymore, so I let the door throw him out."

Yu Yu said, "Didn't his wife stop him?"

Zheng Shouxuan thought for a moment, "Are you talking about Liu's embroiderer? She has already reconciled with Zhang Sheng." Having said this, Zheng Shouxuan smiled, "This matter is also strange, originally it was Zhang Sheng who wanted to retire. Just say that she is not filial or fraternal. And just before him, Liu Shixiu Niang had already sent He Lishu to the Zhang family, and brought her mother's family to the door."

This embroidered lady's natal family is actually Liujia Village.

Liu Shizai is indeed nothing, but it has indeed made Liujia Village a wealthy village.Even if the biggest support in Liujia Village has collapsed recently, the emaciated camels are bigger than horses, so they still have a bit of money.After Xiu Niang's natal family came to the door, she didn't know how to "communicate". In the end, she got back her dowry and took away her little daughter.

"It's a willful woman."

Yu Yu didn't know about the follow-up, so he couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words.

Zheng Shouxuan also appreciates such a strong woman, "It's not the first time this kind of thing happened, but it's the first time I saw such a tough temper, it's good to rub those people's temper."

Yu Yu raised his eyebrows, "Mingfu sounds a little resentful?"

Zheng Shouxuan said to him angrily: "What is grievance? It sounds really ugly, because he is anxious about the case." He said solemnly, but mercilessly killed a small piece of Yu Yu's chess piece in his hand.

"Actually, there is a habit of drowning female infants here." He shook his head and said, "Not one family, not ten families. It can be any family, but there are a few in the county, and there are few wealthy towns, but if you go further, The more farming is needed, the more men are needed, the more likely it is."

Yu Yu paused slightly, the chess piece in his hand was about to fall, but it stopped in mid-air.

"If you want to say how vicious they are, that's not the case. It's just that the family is poor, needs a male to support the family, and has the idea of ​​​​inheriting the family business. This makes people do everything possible to have a son. But what can I do if I have a daughter? I can’t afford it, and everyone in the village is equally poor, and no one is willing to accept it when I send it out, so I can only…” Zheng Shouxuan shook his head.

Yu Yu said lightly: "If you can't afford it, don't give birth."

Zheng Shouxuan said: "This is because you are extreme, and this kind of family inheritance is always needed." Although Zheng Shouxuan sympathized, he also thought that there was nothing to do when this happened.It is always necessary to carry on the family line, but it happens that only daughters can be born all the time, so what can I do?

Yu Yu shook his head and said: "Your statement may have some truth, but no matter how great the reasons and backgrounds are, even if they are their own children, killing people will pay for their lives. Naturally, they can continue to drown the baby girl in exchange for a son who may be born again. But I know one, and I will naturally catch another one."

Zheng Shouxuan's eyes were bright, "But if the parents hurt the child, the punishment is always..."

The reason why the grandmother killed her granddaughter was given a heavy sentence was because the circumstances were extremely bad.A three-year-old girl was stabbed to death with a long silver needle, no matter where it was placed, it was very cruel.

Lang Jun, who was sitting opposite Zheng Shouxuan, looked indifferent, as if it was just a trivial matter, "It is indeed a light sentence for parents to kill their children. But how light can it be?"
