Capital.
As the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is naturally prosperous and abnormal, with a full flow of people.
Since ancient times, places with a lot of people are the most prone to disputes and troubles, so Dali Temple, as the management of criminal cases of all sizes in Beijing, is always extremely busy.
Xue Zao has been in charge of Dali Temple for so many years, and he has seen a lot of large and small criminal cases, so it can be said that he is experienced and well-informed.
Now he is no longer the hairy boy he was when he first took office, any murder case can surprise him, and after seeing so much, he has already learned to keep his face unchanged and calm down.
After so many years of experience in handling cases, he thought that there would be no more cases in this world that would surprise him, but the case that happened today was somewhat unexpected to him.
Xue Zao frowned and looked at an old man in the hall, who was dressed as a slave and had an old face, his face was full of anxiety at this time.
This old man's surname is Lu, with a single name and a loyal character, and he claims to be the secretary of the imperial court's military department and the housekeeper of Lu Dasheng, the Duke of Zheng Guo.
This Lu Zhong came to report a very strange case, he said......
The master of his family, the secretary of the military department, Zheng Guogong Lu Dasheng was kidnapped, and he was kidnapped in his yard.
If it were on weekdays, Xue Zao would only think that this old man was crazy and make fun of him Xue Zao, and he would have been beaten out of the stick.
When the military department of the dynasty was still in the book, Zheng Guogong was kidnapped, and he was kidnapped in his own home!
This is not a joke, even if the bandit has so much courage, he must have that kind of strength to do it.
What kind of place is this!?
O capital!
O at the feet of the Son of Heaven!
In broad daylight, don't say that the military department is tied up, even if ordinary people are tied up, it is impossible, if there is really such a kidnapper, it is estimated that just out of the gate, he was caught by the people on the street and sent to Dali Temple.
But now, he can't be sure, because someone has already reported the same case once.
The man who came earlier was the housekeeper of the Pony Mansion, and he also reported a kidnapping case.
The concubine Ji Huaiyu was kidnapped!
At that time, Xue Zao just regarded it as a joke, and everyone in the officialdom knew that Ji Huaiyu was afraid of guilt, and the princess Zhou Jue had a good husband, and the means were quite successful.
At that time, he thought that this was most likely a conflict between the princess and the princess, or that the princess and the princess were playing some boudoir games between husband and wife, so he casually called the two men to go through the motions.
Unexpectedly, as soon as his subordinates left, Lu Zhong came in and reported to him that his master had been kidnapped.
Xue Zao looked at the old man, frowned and asked, "You said that the man was wearing a white Taoist robe, wearing a white jade long sword at his waist, and looked like he was in his twenties?"
” Lu Zhong was very anxious, and urged: "Yes, Lord Xue, that person is very fierce, the dozen or so nursing house leaders raised by the old man are not that person's opponents, Lord Xue, you just sent someone to block the four gates, so as not to let that person escape!"
” Hearing this, Xue Zao frowned again, he just wanted to confirm the specific situation with Lu Zhong again, but there was a commotion outside the court.
"Xue Zao!
What about Xue Zao?
” The person who came unceremoniously called him by name, and Xue Zao's face suddenly sank.
He stepped out of the lobby and was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but when he saw the face of the visitor, his complexion suddenly changed, and he bowed.
"I've seen the princess, but I don't know the princess'......"
The person who came was the younger sister of today's son Zhou Zheng, Zhou Jue, who was named Princess Izumo and gave Ji Huaiyu to marry.
At this time, Zhou Jue had an angry face, walked quickly to Xue Zao's side, and slapped Xue Zao with his hand.
"Waste, this palace asked you to send someone to catch the bandit who kidnapped the horse, and you sent two minions to meet this palace!"
After all, he is a person who is mixed up in the officialdom, and his face has long been thicker than the bend of the city wall. was slapped in public by Zhou Jue, although Xue Zao was angry in his heart, his face was not the slightest dissatisfied, but he smiled at Zhou Jue.
"The lower officials will be sent, and this will be ......"
Lu Zhong's report and Zhou Jue's arrival made Xue Zao understand that when the court horse and the military department were tied up, although this matter was incredible, this matter was ......
It seems like it's really happened!
Xue Zao hurriedly ordered all his subordinates to go out to find the gangsters who kidnapped the horses.
After giving the order, he just wanted to turn around and greet Zhou Jue next time, but when he saw that Zhou Jue had already hurriedly walked outside the yamen, he couldn't help but ask.
"Princess, where are you going?"
Zhou Jue didn't look back, but just shook his head impatiently.
"What can I expect you to do with this group of waste, this palace still has to go to the six gates and the five cities of the Terracotta Division!"
With the dispatch of Dali Temple, as well as the movement of the princess Zhou Jue and the Lu family, the atmosphere of the entire capital was tense. …… Shen Ming is familiar and unfamiliar with Jingshi, he has lived a carefree life here for more than ten years, and he is naturally very familiar with the former Jingshi.
But after more than 30 years of not seeing each other, Shen Ming returned to Jingshi again, but found that Jingshi had changed a lot.

Jingshi is bigger, the city walls are higher, the flow of people is more, and it is more prosperous.
At this time, he was walking on the unfamiliar and familiar streets, and by asking for directions, he had already gone to the mansion of Ji Huaiyu and Lu Dasheng, the prince of Zheng Guo, and invited them to where they should go.
For his invitation, Ji Huaiyu and Lu Dasheng naturally would not agree to it so obediently.
But Shen Ming adhered to the principle of 'convincing people with reason', and used his greatest truth in the world to persuade the two, so that the two could not refuse, so they had to be honestly invited away by him.
And he is now going to ask the third person Bai Xiaosheng said, that is, the cabinet chief assistant of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Protector of the country, Lin Qianzhi!
Protectorate Mansion!
Shen Ming looked up at the plaque above, and after making sure that his position was not wrong, he nodded.
I have to say that he is worthy of being the first assistant of the cabinet, although he has not seen the scenery inside the house, but just from the outside, he knows that it is extraordinary.
Judging from this appearance alone, Lin Qianzhi's Protectorate Mansion is three points more magnificent than Ji Huaiyu's Horse Mansion and Lu Dasheng's courtyard.
Needless to say, the stone lion of the town house, the vermilion gate, and the Tsing Yi slave who guarded the door in front of the door were all three points more arrogant than the previous Horse Mansion and Lu Mansion, and they were all in a posture with eyes above the top.
Shen Ming looked at this, and when he thought about this, he inevitably stopped in front of the door for a long time.
The fat-headed, big-eared, red-faced gatekeeper saw it, and his face was also a little impatient at this time, and a look of contempt flashed in his eyes, and he opened his mouth to reprimand.
"You Taoist priest, what are you looking at here, is this the place you should come to?
Don't get out of here yet. ” Hearing this, Shen Ming came back to his senses, he glanced around and saw no one else.
"Hey!
That Taoist priest, where do you look, it's you, telling you to get out of here, you can't understand people's words, right?
If you don't leave, you're welcome?
” When the slave stretched out his hand to himself, Shen Ming came back to his senses, and the slave in Tsing Yi was actually talking about himself.
Shen Ming was a little ridiculous, and couldn't help but chuckle.
