"I have already seen the things you asked Zhuifeng to give me yesterday." Jiang Nianbai found a stack of bundled things from the compartment behind the bookshelf, untied the strings, and spread the stack of things on the on the table.

"Yunjiabao is a famous family. If you want to talk about the history, you have to start from the founding of Dongli Tai/ancestor. It's all about Chen Zhima and rotten millet. I think you have heard of it before, so I won't go into details The Yun family has been passed down for several generations and has a strong family background. It has mines in Leping and Minggu counties and other places, and its industries are spread all over the country. Only the Yun family can compete with the Bai family in Taiping It’s a shame. It’s a pity that 11 years ago, his family members reported to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, saying that the Yun family had secretly hidden Xiangrui and had the heart of treason.”

Jiang Nianbai pointed to some old yellowed papers on the table, "These are the case files recorded by the Ministry of Criminal Justice when the case of Yun's family was tried."

Luo Ming picked up the old paper on the table, read it carefully, and asked, "What did you find?"

Jiang Nianbai shook his head, "Conspiracy is a very difficult thing to say. Sometimes you can be convicted of treason if you say something wrong. According to Dongli's law, if there is auspiciousness in the world, it must be reported to the court. No matter what Whether it is an official or a commoner, whoever hides auspicious signs will be sentenced to sixty rods and exiled for three thousand miles."

Luo Ming really doesn't understand what kind of crime it is to hide auspiciousness privately.

Such things as auspiciousness are a bit of a fabrication in themselves.The so-called auspiciousness that Luo Ming knows is only what people often hear about, such as phoenix and unicorn.

It's something that no one has seen before, and it's unimaginable to use these nonsense things to convict people.However, in this era when the power of the monarch is greater than the sky, what is believed in is the divine right of the king. Every emperor ascends the throne, no matter whether it is true or not, the historian must record that there is auspicious birth in the country to reflect the legitimacy and rationality of the emperor's ascension to the throne.

Because of this, auspiciousness has become something that only emperors and royals can have. It is a representative of the emperor's virtue and wisdom in his rule.

After asking Liu Yan yesterday, Luo Ming realized that the scope of auspiciousness is very broad, not only the ones he knows, like some strange-looking birds and beasts, once they are found and captured, they will be regarded as auspiciousness from heaven.That's why the Dongli law clearly stipulates that all people who see or get auspicious signs will report to the court for public service, and they are not allowed to take them in private.

"The Yun family was accused of hiding auspicious signs for themselves. According to the law, it is not a particularly serious crime. With the family status and prestige of the Yun family at that time, relying on favors, it is completely possible to reduce a major incident to a minor one."

"Then why did the whole family make such a fuss? I read in the case file that in the fifth year of Tianqing, Jiao Haihai, the disciple of the Yunjiabao, went to the Criminal Ministry to report that Yun Zhentian, the head of the Yunjia, hid a white tiger in his home. The white tiger had a white background. Black stripes, seven feet long from head to tail, capable of traveling thousands of miles a day, is a legendary beast, when Yun Zhentian traveled abroad, he found it and brought it home, and did not report it to the court, but kept it privately in his own garden."

When Luo Ming said this, he shook his head. An albino tiger killed more than three hundred members of the Yun family.

"Read on, isn't it still written in the back, the criminal department went to Yun's house to search for the white tiger, but in the fake cave in the Yun's garden, they accidentally found some iron objects, a yellow robe, a sky-high crown, and exchanges with the general guards Correspondence."

"only these?"

"How much more do you want? These things are enough to convict a person! Dongli Tai/Ancestor left a legacy, except for the Ministry of War, the people are not allowed to make private weapons. At that time, seven or eight hundred swords, guns, swords and halberds were copied from the Yun family. There are also letters and letters with the generals in charge of Fan, not to mention these, just the yellow robe and the sky-rocketing crown are enough for Yun Zhentian to die several times."

After rummaging through it, Jiang Nianbai picked out a copy from the file and pointed it to Luo Ming, "This is something that was confiscated at the time, and I remember it clearly in the bottom, take a look."

Luo Ming took it over to look at it, and sighed, "So the evidence is so solid that it can't be overturned?"

"It stands to reason so." Jiang Nianbai slowly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea.

Luo Ming glanced at him, threw the stack of papers in his hand onto the desk, leaned back into the teacher's chair, and said with a calm smile, "Let's talk. What's the matter between you and me?"

Luo Ming knew that Jiang Nianbai had already made up his mind, otherwise he would not have called himself from Prince Jing's mansion to his house early in the morning, and talked for so long.

Jiang Nianbai sorted out his thoughts, then raised his head, and said with a sly smile: "We don't have the strength to bring down Liu Pei at this time, so we can only use a method of internal disintegration to dismantle our prime minister and cut him off." Replace the powerful brothers and feet in the court with our own people, so that we have the capital to compete with Liu Pei, and it is enough to make him jump in anger."

Jiang Nianbai couldn't help laughing when he thought of Liu Pei blowing his beard and staring at his eyes.

Luo Ming thought about Jiang Nianbai's words, and said with a smile, "Okay! You want to kill Jin Dayuan first?"

"Exactly! Back then, Jin Dayuan was just a member of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, Wai Yun. In order to please Liu Pei, he personally supervised the handling of the Yun family's case. Otherwise, with his knowledge and experience, how could he have been promoted to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials so quickly?" Jiang Jiang Nianbai disdains such a person who seeks out money, and his tone is not good when he mentions Jin Dayuan.

Luo Ming flipped through the case file, "It's a good idea to start with Jin Dayuan. But I've read the case file carefully, and I can't find any flaws. The witnesses and criminals from back then are all dead and escaped. Huan, and there is no circumstantial evidence, so it may not be easy to reverse the case."

"No flaws? There is nothing flawless in the world, as long as it is done by humans, it will definitely leave clues." Jiang Nianbai said with a smile.

Luo Ming was surprised, Jiang Nianbai smiled triumphantly, stood up and went around behind Luo Ming, opened the file, found a place and pointed it to Luo Ming, "Look here."

Luo Ming looked down carefully, this page recorded Yun Zhentian's confession, which was very similar to modern torture records, it was all question and answer, and at the end there was the criminal's own handwriting.

"What's this..."

Luo Ming just wanted to say that there is something to see here. He had already read it last night, and he remembered that the confession was simple and clear. Yun Zhentian didn't admit it at first, but after three halls, Yun Zhentian suddenly changed his mouth, and made a statement against the conspiracy. He confessed to the matter, saying that he had a personal relationship with the general in charge of the Fan, and the two had conspired for a long time, only waiting for the opportunity to rebel.

Something is not quite right.

Luo Ming looked back and forth, and compared the confessions of other criminals. After reading it three times, Luo Ming suddenly jumped up, "The person who recorded the confession seems to want to tell others something!"

Jiang Nianbai knew it in his heart, and stabbed with a smile: "It took me so long to see it, how stupid!"

"Look here, here, here, here, it's clearly a confession in block letters, but suddenly the font has been changed to Xiaozhuan in these places, you can read it together..."

Jiang Nianbai suppressed the other places, only highlighted the places he was pointing at, and read them word by word, "Cloud, vibration, sky, injustice."

Putting down the confession, Jiang Nianbai shook his head and smiled wryly, "The master recorder of the case file is also a poor person. If there is no good or evil in his heart, it is better to do this kind of thing, but it is a person who has good and evil in his heart. When he records this statement, he also I don't know what kind of struggle I have to go through to write such a taboo thing, and to appeal for Yun Zhentian's grievance."

"In short, he has a conscience. If he hadn't left these words, I'm afraid we wouldn't even have the slightest evidence. I'll send someone to investigate, and we must find out the person who recorded the statement. From his mouth, we will definitely be able to ask Come up with something more useful."

Jiang Nianbai instructed: "There is also that family named Jiao Dahai. He must have been bribed to deceive the master as a slave and go to the Criminal Ministry to sue. He fled before the Yun family was wiped out, and the Criminal Department has been issuing official documents to arrest him. , but this person is still missing. You try to find him, as long as you find him, the case of the Yun family can be overturned."

Luo Ming nodded in agreement, and stood up, "I'll investigate right away, don't worry, as long as this person is still alive, Tingfeng Pavilion will definitely be able to find him."

Just as he was about to go out, Luo Ming turned around again, "I don't need you right now, take this opportunity to rest more, your illness is just recovering, don't get tired again."

Jiang Nianbai is the most impatient when others mention his cough, "Go and do your own thing. The Northwest Military Camp matter is over, and you have taken on such a difficult task. Do you still have time to care about others?"

Luo Ming frowned, "No matter how busy you are, you must always take care of your body. Okay, okay, okay, I can't control you, I'll let Yan Junyu take care of you, it seems that now you are just afraid of him."

When Jiang Nianbai heard Yan Junyu's name, he suddenly became ashamed and angry, his face turned red, and he clenched his fists and shouted, "Why am I afraid of him?"

Seeing his face suddenly changed, Luo Ming laughed and comforted him, "I'm not afraid. You're so anxious, your face is flushed. If you cough again in a while, Jun Yu will be anxious with me again."

Jiang Nianbai became even more angry, just as he was about to speak, Yan Junyu just happened to push the door in with a bowl of soup and medicine, "Zhongqing, drink the medicine!"

Luo Ming laughed when he heard it, and fell back into the grand master's chair.Jiang Nianbai glared at Yan Junyu with hatred, and Yan Junyu went in without knowing it, took two sips from the medicine bowl, and brought it to Jiang Nianbai's mouth, "Drink!"

Jiang Nianbai took the medicine bowl and stared at Yan Junyu fiercely.

Yan Junyu had a handsome face and gentle eyes. Jiang Nianbai stared at it for a while, and all his anger dissipated, leaving only a little helplessness and gratitude in his heart.

He muttered in a low voice, "Why did you come in at this time..." Jiang Nianbai drank the soup in one gulp.

Yan Junyu had been waiting for a long time, and handed over three red dates, "Eat this, it will nourish your blood."

Jiang Nianbai muttered in his heart, "Mother-in-law's." But he was very obedient, took the dates obediently, and ate them in small bites.

"My lord!"

Just as Luo Ming was about to go back to Prince Jing's mansion, Eunuch Cui walked in from outside.

After saluting Luo Ming, Eunuch Cui untied the big and small bags on his back, wiped the sweat off his face, and said pantingly, "Your Majesty, don't go back home!"

Luo Ming was surprised, "You didn't stay in the palace, why did you come here?"

Eunuch Cui took two more breaths before he could breathe evenly, "Yes, Mr. Liuyan asked me to come."

"Liuyan? What happened in the mansion?"

"No! Mr. Liuyan said, let the prince live in Mr. Jiang's mansion for a while, and don't go back to the mansion."

Eunuch Cui pushed a pile of large and small bags on the table, "These are the clothes Mr. Liuyan prepared for the prince to change into. Mr. Liuyan was afraid that the prince would have no one to take care of him, so he sent an old slave to take care of him."

The room was silent for a while, and no one spoke for a long time.

After a long time Yanjun Yu smiled and said: "Hey, the majestic King Jing Qiansui was kicked out of his palace. Tsk, Liuyan is really a big show."

Patting Luo Ming on the shoulder, he whispered: "I said, when it comes to coddling people, I'm really willing to lose. How do you pamper Liu Yan so that he dares to treat you from the bottom of the year? Home blasted out?

Luo Ming also felt puzzled, he and Liu Yan were fine in the morning, the two of them had breakfast, and said they went for a walk in the street together at night, why didn't see each other for two hours, so he asked Eunuch Cui to take this big Bao Xiaobao's clothes blasted him out.

I feel a little wronged in my heart, but then I think about it, Liu Yan is not an arrogant person, he will do this, there must be something wrong.

Luo Ming's eyes were sharp, and he stared at Eunuch Cui as if he was going to eat someone, which made Eunuch Cui shrink back in fright, and thought: Don't come at me, I'm being bombarded here too.

Quickly explained with a smile, "It's nothing serious. There was a small accident in the mansion. Mr. Liuyan was afraid of dirtying your eyes, so he let you hide in Mr. Jiang's mansion. Mr. Liuyan said, wait for him to deal with it." For matters in the mansion, I will personally come to Mr. Jiang's mansion to pick you up and apologize to you."

When Luo Ming heard that something happened in Prince Jing's mansion, he immediately thought of Liu Yan, and asked anxiously, "What happened? How is Liu Yan?"

Eunuch Cui hesitated for a while, raised his head, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "It's nothing serious! It's just that the old slave said, don't worry."

The author has something to say: I have a cold...I feel like a cooked crab now, red and hot...Oh yeah, I feel cute even without taking medicine...
