The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 142: At the End of the Yalu River, There is a Rising Crisis in the Central Judicial Office

In modern times, these three pieces of evidence might not be conclusive, but they were enough to convict people in the Zhou Dynasty!

Therefore, the new scholar immediately sat down like a deflated ball and murmured with a sad face, "I just wanted to discuss with him about going to the Luming Banquet together tomorrow, but this guy suddenly broke some news. I had an affair with my father's concubine, and I was scared for a moment..."

Tch!

Recently, there have been a lot of cases caused by ethical tragedies. Could it be because of the "second spring phenomenon" caused by the warm autumn?

Sun Shaozong was thinking at random, motioning Lin Delu to deal with the rest of the matters, and then he was ready to go downstairs and leave.

However, just a few steps forward, Liu Xianglian stopped him.

He then bowed his hands in admiration and said, "Brother, you really are worth the name of ”Divine Judgement!”

Brother?

Sun Shaozong was still a little puzzled. Hearing this, he quickly replied, "I don't know where Brother Liu's residence is?"

"My father is Liu Chuanfeng."

Liu Xianglian raised his arms and said, "When he was fighting against Gaoli, he once served as a vice vanguard under Your Majesty."

His father's deputy?

It seemed that he was also ordered to commit suicide by the Yalu River.

Although Sun Shaozong was a little confused about whether the two lost their heads together were friends who shared life and death, his liking for Liu Xianglian increased a lot.

If it was an ordinary layman, they might have mentioned their relationship when they were listed as suspects. How could they wait until this time to reveal their identity?

So Sun Shaozong talked with him in the corridor.

It turned out that Liu Xianglian was a straightforward man despite his name and appearance. His temperament was quite similar to that of Feng Ziying but less domineering than that.

Unfortunately, Sun Shaozong had to go back to the Yamen to do business before noon. He didn't have time to talk deeply with Liu Xianglian, so he invited him to visit him at home after a few days. He also thought of calling Feng Ziying. They must have a close relationship.

After leaving Liu Xianglian, Sun Shaozong went downstairs, and he saw that there were already many people around the gate. It was even more lively than when he went upstairs.

As soon as he came down from upstairs, someone in the front film stretched his neck and shouted, "My Lord, My Lord! Have you found any clues again?!"

"Yes, My Lord. Tell us more about it!"

Isn’t this the situation of chasing celebrities?

The ancient folk entertainment activities were too few!

The first time could be said to be a precedent. If he explained it again, it would probably become a ”routine.”

Sun Shaozong did not want to explain the scientific reasons to passers-by while pondering over the details of the case when solving the case in the future.

Therefore, he said calmly, "This case has been solved. Several guests from upstairs have seen it with their own eyes. I am on official business, and it is inconvenient to stay here for a long time."

With that, he put his sleeves behind him and walked out with official steps.

The passer-by outside the door was shocked at first. He went upstairs for just over a quarter of an hour to solve the murder case. They then were frightened by Sun Shaozong's momentum and involuntarily made way for a passage.

When someone responded and wanted to catch up with him, Sun Shaozong had already gotten on the carriage and left.

The crowd was sighing, when they heard a man saying, "Well, Lord Sun said that several guests upstairs had seen him solve the case with their own eyes. Isn't everything clear after we go upstairs and ask?!"

As soon as they heard this, they felt it was reasonable and immediately rushed in.

Wenxin Pavilion experienced a disaster from the people rushing inside, even the tables, chairs, and counters have been thrown in a mess.

Sun Shaozong had just crossed the half-foot-high threshold when he arrived at the government office when he saw a short, strong, middle-aged woman rushing up to greet him. "Greetings to the Judge."

Although she calls herself a civilian woman, she was obviously someone of status.

Because all people in the government office even those who hold real power like Zhao Wuwei were used to calling Sun Shaozong, ”Master.”

On the contrary, the civil servants or officials in the government, no matter how powerful they were, were always called "My Lord".

"You are..."

When Sun Shaozong was about to ask her, Cheng Rixing suddenly flashed out beside him and shouted, "You, why can't you stay at home? Why did you come to the Yamen?!"

It turned out that this woman was Cheng Rixing's wife.

Since it was a household affair, Sun Shaozong naturally didn't want to get involved. He left this husband and wife talking at the door and went to Han Anbang to report the errand.

A few days ago, after receiving the Imperial Edict, Governor Han was full of vitality again. His waist was no longer bent, and his legs were no longer sore. He heard that he read all the official documents at once until midnight without taking a nap.

No wonder they say that power was a man's aphrodisiac!

Moreover, once he got a firm foothold, his intrigue also came back, and he was very attracted to Sun Shaozong.

However, according to Sun Shaozong's inference, although this guy escaped a disaster by a fluke, the situation was still present. At present, it is only a temporary comeback.

So naturally, he didn't want to be involved with him too much. He just perfunctorily made a few remarks and hurriedly got up to leave.

When he arrived at the Eastern Chamber Courtyard of the Criminal Department, Cheng Rixing met him with a calm face and said in a low voice, "Master, that Miaoyu refused to go to your mansion to teach, and... Still..."

His wife came to see him because of this.

Sun Shaozong entered the hall silently and then asked, "Still what?"

"She also made a sarcastic remark about you and General Sun, saying that if she was going to teach at your mansion, it would pollute her reputation!" Cheng Rixing said angrily, "Master, this little girl is so unkind. Do you want to teach her a lesson?"

"Lesson?"

Sun Shaozong looked at him thoughtfully and asked, "How are you going to teach her a lesson?"

Seeing that he seems to be motivated, Cheng Rixing immediately felt confident and said, "Recently, that drunken vagary boxer, Ni Er, frequently came to my house and said that he wants to work for you, so he might as well handle this matter!"

"Hehe."

Sun Shaozong smiled noncommittally, and suddenly he asked, "How is my official reputation now?"

"It is naturally excellent!"

Although Cheng Rixing didn't understand, he suddenly asked what this meant, but he immediately gave a thumbs up and said, "The name of Divine Judgement can be said to be famous throughout the Capital, and your reputation among the officials in the Central Judicial Office is absolutely second to none!"

"In that case..."

Sun Shaozong raised his eyebrows, stared at Cheng Rixing coldly, and said, "She is a weak woman. Even if she doesn't want to come to teach, she can refuse politely. Why should she offend me for nothing?”

"This... This..."

Cheng Rixing hesitated for a while. Under the pressure of the steel knife, he finally said, "It was my wife who said, "If you are liked by Master, you can become a concubine of his." The little nun became angry..."

"Hmph!"

Sun Shaozong snorted coldly and said, "It's nothing if she doesn't want to be a concubine. But you are the one who distorts and provokes me so much. Who do you regard me as? A high-ranking Yamen official who bullies men and women?"

Putong~

Cheng Rixing finally got down on his knees and said hurriedly, "Forgive me, Master. I lost my mind for a while. I didn’t mean to damage your reputation!"

Sun Shaozong waited for him to plead a few more words. He then shook his sleeve and said, "Get up, I will forgive you this time because it is your first time to commit an offense. If you dare to gossip in front of me next time, don't blame me for not keeping you!"

Cheng Rixing repeatedly said, "I wouldn’t dare." He then got up from the ground and cautiously inquired, "Then the matter of inviting a female teacher..."

"You are still in charge. Try to find an old and stable person, otherwise, the outsiders may think I am looking for beautiful women!"
