Xia Dynasty, Emperor Zhao forty years.On a midsummer night, the sky was in the dark.Si Tianjian Zheng, deputy supervisor, young eunuch and other officials gathered on Si Tiantai, their faces panicked.According to the Book of Heavenly Officials, the comet is near the sun, and the son wants to kill his father.When the old emperor Zhou Tao heard this, he secretly summoned Prime Minister Yan Jing overnight, and he was in disbelief: "I have seven sons, who dare to rebel against him?"
”Yan Jing pondered for a while and replied: "When I rebelled against my ancestor emperor, the sky appeared with five stars, and it was ordered by heaven to change the dynasty.Today, the comet hits the moon, and the omen of great evil may come true.And the comet is next to the sun, and the sunrise is ...... in the east" "East!
”Zhou Tao was shocked: "Could it be the fourth prince Zhou Su?"
Qingyuguan is located in the east, Zhou Su was exiled to Qingyuguan for ten years, he must have been jealous in his heart and plotted to kill his father!
”"Emperor Mingjian!"
Yan Jing hurriedly knelt down, and said in fear: "The minister doesn't dare to say anything, maybe the star sign is intended for something else, not the east, let alone the four princes!"
”Zhou Tao's expression gradually became hazy, "I can believe it."
I am the Son of Heaven, I want to live forever and enjoy the supremacy of royal power forever!
”Speaking of this, there was a ruthless and cruel look in his eyes, "Yan Xiang drafted a decree for me: the four princes are unrepentant, disloyal and unfilial, and my heart is very cold!"
On the day of the purpose, he ordered the Qingyu Pass guard to ban the four princes on the spot, listen to his words, watch his deeds, and report it every ten days, and there must be no mistakes!
”"Obey the order!"
Yan Jing kowtowed, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.Unexpectedly, that night, Zhou Tao's mother, the Queen Mother, was critically ill, and she issued the last decree on her deathbed, which was to urgently summon the four princes back to Beijing!
Zhou Tao was filial piety, and in addition to grief, he had no choice but to violate the warning of the mandate of heaven, and ordered Yan Jing to revise the holy decree and send it to Qingyuguan in an urgent manner.At dawn, a carrier pigeon flew out of the Marquis of Anguo's mansion and flew quietly towards Wuyang County, thousands of miles away............
Three days later.Wuyang County.In the quiet and peaceful night, the boundless thick ink was heavily smeared on the sky, a hooked moon hid in the clouds in a strange manner, the miserable white moonlight was gradually swallowed by the clouds, the sky and the earth were dark, and everything was asleep.Suddenly, a woman's whimpering sound, from the cemetery at the foot of Yanming Mountain, came intermittently, the sorrowful cry was like a ghost crying, the poignant sound was creepy, the yin wind blew violently, and several green and blue flames were like ghosts, floating uncertainly, terrifying and gloomy!
At night, the villagers who caught snakes together, carrying bamboo baskets on their backs, passed by the cemetery in twos and threes, and one of them had no intention of glancing at it, and immediately shouted in horror: "Ghost fire!
”"Ghost, ghost fire!""
There's really a ghost fire!""
It's Lord Hades' ghost lantern!""
It's a female ghost!
A female ghost is coming-" The villagers were so frightened that they fled with their feet, and their shouts resounded throughout the village in a moment............
In the morning, the first sun shines obliquely.In a Zhumen mansion on East Street in Wuyang County, the yamen is full of fast catches, and the atmosphere is tense and solemn.In the west wing, a woman hung from the beams of the house, long dead.Zhang Qing of the Yamen Clerk's Office wrote to record the occurrence of the case, and the owner, Li Fushan, together with his wife, concubines and maids, cried, and the scene was very noisy."
Master Long has arrived—" Liu Zhutou's rough voice suddenly sounded in the outer courtyard, and then powerful footsteps were heard, coming one after another!
Everyone in the house hurriedly lined up on both sides to make way for a passage.I saw that the person who came was twenty years old, dressed in white and snowy, with black hair and crown, born Zhong Lingyuxiu, clear and handsome, as bright as a jade tree in front of the wind.The ladies were amazed and saluted, and their faces were shy.However, Long Xingtu did not smile, his expression was extremely cold, his eyes fell on the corpse, and his neutral voice was a little delicate, "Zhang Shuban." ”Zhang Qing immediately handed over the case file and said: "The deceased Wang, thirty years old, is Li Fushan's second wife, this morning, Yahuan Hongxiu found that Wang hanged himself in the bedroom, Li Fushan then sent the slave to report to the official, and asked the government to rule on the approval before the funeral ceremony. ”"Hanging?"
After hearing this, Long Xingtu frowned and asked while flipping through the investigation records, "Did you do an autopsy?"
”Zhang Qingdao: "There has been no autopsy yet.Dr.
Zhu took leave today and did not show up. ”"Master Long, Xiaomin Li Fushan, here is a suicide note written by the Wang family, which can prove that the Wang family committed suicide."
Li Fushan took a step forward and presented a white letterhead, his face full of sorrow, "Pity my wife, I can't think of looking for a short time at such a young age!"
”Long Xingtu took the letterhead, and his starry eyes slowly swept over the Li family, his tone was not salty or light, and said, "Has the Wang family ever hanged himself before?"
”Everyone in the Li family was stunned at first, and then shook their heads, who would hang themselves several times?
Seeing this, Li Fushan hurriedly said: "Please ask Master Long to go to the county lord and rule as soon as possible!"
”Long Xingtu glanced faintly at the end of his eyes, "Master Li is very anxious." ”"Master Long, forgive me, the summer is hot, and the funeral will be carried out in three days, otherwise ......"
"Don't worry, you can give instructions today."
Long Xingtu gave him a strange look, and then approached the Wang family and examined it carefully from top to bottom.After a while, he spoke: "Master Li, the deceased's self-hanging method is not very professional!"
”Li Fushan paused, "Huh?
Be......
No, no, no, she's ......"
