The Golden Hairpin

Fortunately, the soldiers patrolling on the street came quickly, and after seeing Li Shubai, they hurriedly tied the murderer.

After Wen rushed over, she was very surprised and said: "The mother was frightened, so she tried hard and the child came out immediately. Fortunately, the mother is healthy, so I can keep the mother and child safe-I will wash the child quickly."

The child's father held the child's mother's hand and said affectionately: "Miss, you have worked hard, I have decided, how about the name of this child "Jing Sheng"."

The weak parturient woman leaned weakly on the bed: "'Scared'? Why don't you call it'Scared'?"

"Good idea, it's so decided, Wei Scared Sheng, it's good, good..."

Huang Zixian saw that even someone like Li Shubai would inevitably twitch the corner of his mouth slightly.

When Cui Chunzhan and Wang Lincheng ran to the palace of Kui fearfully, it was already dawn.

Seeing their red eyes, Li Shubai didn't say anything, and ordered people to go to tea to give them a shock, saying: "The criminal of the fourth plan has been arrested, and the trial will be held tomorrow."

Wang Lin hurriedly nodded and said yes, while Cui Chunzhan hesitated a little and asked: "Master, these four plans have no clues as to the cause of the crime, physical evidence of the crime, etc., so the prince is sure that he caught the murderer of the four plans tonight?"

"Is it right? After the interrogation tomorrow, don’t you know?" Li Shubai Duancha saw off the guests and said, "There is a curfew in the capital, and the gates are closed at night. You can’t come and go. He must stay in the inn of Puningfang in advance. You can Go and check the inn where he stayed."

On the second day, the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple conducted the same trial and checked the murder weapon. It was determined that it was undoubtedly the weapon used to kill the first few dead. In the inn where the murderer stayed, he uncovered the scriptures copied by the murderer, which was opposite to the handwriting left by the murderer at the scene. The habit of picking up and moving pen was completely consistent.

The murderer knew he could not deny, so he could only confess, and confessed the details and reasons of the previous killings. Since then, the four plans that have been clamoring for more than three months in the capital have been broken in one fell swoop.

In the Zichen Hall of Daming Palace, Emperor Li Tao, who had been unwell recently, immediately became energetic after hearing the news, and ordered the kings, Cui Chunzhan, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and Wang Lin, minister of the criminal ministry, to meet him.

"Change clothes and follow me into the palace."

Huang Zixia had just finished sleeping and ran to Yubingtang to see Li Shubai, and he motioned to her.

Huang Zixian was a little surprised, and asked, "Into the palace?"

"I said that if you can solve this case within ten days, you are qualified to do something for me. Therefore, starting from today, I have one thing for you to do for me, and this thing needs to be given to you. Confirmed identity." He stood up, with a leisurely and elegant posture, completely not as if he was negotiating a deal with others, "Anyway, today is an important day for you, the **** of the palace. I will not take you with you. A lot of fun and excitement?"

She lowered her head and said "yes".

Li Shubai walked to the door again and ordered the people standing there: "Call Jing Yi over."

After a while, Jing Yi came, with a very clean and clever look. He looked at Huang Zixia a few times, and then asked, "What is the Lord's order?"

Li Shubai asked slowly: "You are my subordinate in charge of the personnel in the mansion. I ask you, how many eunuchs are in the mansion today?"

"There are three hundred and sixty-seven people in total."

"What if three hundred and sixty-seven people suddenly become three hundred and sixty-eight people?"

Jing Yi glanced at Huang Zixian again and thought for a while, and said: "The servants remember that last year the Jiucheng Palace was torrential rain, and many eunuchs were lost. Most of those eunuchs were sent to the palace by orphans, and some of their bones are missing. Nowhere."

Li Shubai nodded: "So, she might be the separated **** in Jiucheng Palace?"

Jing Yi said sincerely: "This is how I guessed it, but I still can't remember who it is. Please let me go and check the file."

Li Shubai waved him to go down. After a while, he came over with a thick roster and said: "The slave and maid have found out. There is a young **** in the Jiucheng Palace, named Yang Chonggu, who is responsible for the sweeping of the'Chang and Yanlan' pavilion. He was about sixteen or seventeen years old, five feet five inches tall, slender and thin. He entered the palace as an orphan. He was lonely and unfriended in the Jiucheng palace. He stayed alone in the Yanlan Pavilion, so everyone thought he was dead. During the natural disasters last year, the palace has cancelled his name file."

"Well, I just didn't expect that Yang Chonggu survived a catastrophe and entered my palace." Li Shubai looked at Huang Zixia and asked, "What do you think of the identity Jing Yi said?"

Huang Zixia stood there, feeling full of emotions. She fled for several months, thousands of mountains and rivers desperately to hide her identity, who knows that in such a short period of time, she can have another identity, become another person, and since then appear in front of others with fairness and no need to cover up. Cover up.

Who can question what the king of the dynasty Li Shubai said, and who dares to question?

So she bowed to Li Shubai and said, "Maid Yang Chonggu, thank you, Lord."

Entering from the Jianfu Gate of Daming Palace, after passing through the overlapping Zhumen and high walls, you can see the Hanyuan Hall standing high, and the halls are connected on the high platform, just like a phoenix spreading its wings and embracing all entering the palace. The man at the door.

Behind Hanyuan Hall is the majestic and beautiful Zichen Hall, behind the hall, the magnificent and magnificent flying eaves and arches are endless, to the point where the eyes are poor.

The Zichen Hall is the inner hall. In recent years, the emperor has not called the courtiers in the Hanyuan Hall, especially those close to the princes, mostly in the Zichen Hall. Huang Zixian waited in the hall not long. The emperor in black uniform came in surrounded by the eunuchs. He was slightly plump, but not fat. His round chin and long slender eyebrows gave him a kind of amiable appearance.

Emperor Li Jiao is only thirty-five years old this year, but since he was enthroned by eunuchs ten years ago, he has been indulging in sensuality and ignoring state affairs for ten years. It is a bit reluctant to say that he is a peaceful emperor, but he hasn't done anything to disturb the people, and the people are fairly stable.

Huang Zixia thought that although he was a brother, the emperor looked much gentler than Li Shubai. I looked at Zhaowang Li Xi and them again, and thought in my heart, everyone seems to be more foolish than this Li Shubai, why can I help myself, only this kind of person.

The emperor sat down with a smile on his face and said to Li Shubai: "Fourth brother, there is really no thing that can be difficult for you. I just thought about these four plans the day before whether I should ask you to handle it, but I didn't have time to speak yet. You solved the case last night, really fast."

Li Shubai said: "This is not the credit of the minister, but someone else solved the case."

The emperor’s gaze fell on Cui Chunzhan. Cui Chunzhan hurriedly bowed and said: "This case is solved, everything depends on King Kui. The ministers and others are guilty, and the ministers only patrol the east of the city and do not listen to King Kui’s instructions. It is King Kui. Going alone, the real culprit was captured on the spot, and the case was solved."

The emperor's eyes fell on Huang Zixian behind Li Shubai, and asked: "Fourth brother, the **** behind you, doesn't seem to have seen him before?"

"Enjoy the emperor, this is the one who solved the case, so the courtier didn't dare to take credit for taking her up to the temple to face the saint."

Everyone immediately looked at Huang Zixia in amazement, and saw that the little **** had a beautiful face, but he kept his eyelashes down, his face was calm, and he didn't even move his hair.

The emperor smiled and said: "This is the inner hall. I am used to my brothers and so on. You see, today are all my brothers. Chunzhan is also the nephew of Princess Cui. Wang Shangshu is the queen's uncle. You little The **** need not be too restrictive. What is your name?"

"Slavery Yang Chonggu, knock on the emperor." She stepped forward and bowed and saluted.

King Kang Li Wen was young after all. Seeing that she was about the same age as him, he quickly jumped out and asked: "Are you the one who solved the case? I am puzzled. You quickly tell me, isn't this case the four options? Why? There have been homicides in the north and south, but the last one is not in the east?"

Huang Zixian looked up at the emperor, and when he nodded, she explained: "This is just the inertia of the human mind. After combining the four sides of the'Changle Wojing' Bodhi, and seeing the case happened in the north, south, and west of the capital, he thought that the murderer committed the murder. The rule is southeast and northwest. Who knows that the murderer killed people, it was borrowed from this name, but not according to this rule. In fact, the third person killed by the murderer before was in Chang'an Fang in the southwest of the city, not in the west of the city at all. So I Thinking that it was a mistake to decide the case in accordance with the Quartet."

Zhao Wang Li Shu hurriedly asked: "So, I heard afterwards that you set the murderer's target to be southeast of Beijing on the first day and Puning Fang in the northwest of Beijing on the second day. What was the reason?"

"This case is very complicated, and we have to start with the sentence that Master Zhuang Zhen read wrong." Huang Zi Xia said in detail, "At Jianbi Palace that day, I heard all the princes talk about the details of the case, the Master Zhuang Zhen. On the day of the Obon Meeting, the scriptures that I must read were eloquent, but the murderer could immediately hear the wrong word in the Buddhist scriptures. If he was not a Buddhist, he must be a believer who was familiar with the Buddhist scriptures. For the curfew in Beijing, if you want to kill people everywhere, you can only stay overnight on the same day. There are no Buddhist temples in the first few places. A monk staying overnight will definitely attract the attention of others. Therefore, believers have a greater chance of committing crimes. Killing many people must not be the true converts to Buddha, but must be fascinated by folk crooked ways. Superstitious people must have trust. According to the previous inference, this matter is not based on rumors from all directions, so I thought about superstitious people. There is also a habit of always reading the almanac."

So after flipping through the almanac, she found that the location of the murderer was exactly the same as the auspicious location determined on that day in the almanac. On the day of the third murder, the almanac reads southwestern China, and then flipped through the days of the previous two murders. One is due to the north and the other is due to the south, which is exactly where the murderer is killing. Therefore, she guessed that the murderer must be based on the almanac, not everyone's guess, one person in each place.

And Li Shubai immediately noticed this after she flipped through the almanac. So on that day in northwestern China, the two men lurked together in front of the pregnant woman's home in Puningfang to wait and see.

"So that's the case!" Li Wen hurriedly asked again, "Then, how do you know that the murderer will definitely attack which house? How do you know that the target this time must be pregnant women?"

"Because the first three people lost their lives, one of the husband was an old man, and the other was a blacksmith. The two were killed, but the kid in the shantang was lonely and exhausted. He was dying, even if he didn't kill him. Soon, why did the murderer kill him?" Huang Zixia said, after a short pause, then said, "Then I noticed one thing, it was the middle-aged blacksmith. The place where he was killed was in the medicine hall— In other words, he was killed when he went to see a doctor."

Li Wen was still thinking about it. Li Run held a wine glass by his side and sighed softly: "Life is suffering, old age, sickness and death."

"Exactly. One old, one sick, one death. Now the only thing left is new words—and the pregnant woman is the only one who is about to give birth in Northwest Chang'an. If the murderer wants to start on that day, the only thing he can focus on is That's the goal. And when he went to kill someone that day, he happened to meet a mother who gave birth. He was overjoyed and thought it was God who was helping him complete this'life'." Cui Chunzhan sighed, "Dali Temple and the Criminal Ministry jointly interrogated, and the murderer confessed It turns out that his family suffered a disaster, and he died within one month. He was afraid and worried and believed in a sect from the Western Regions. This religion is also called and beaten by everyone in the Western Regions, but who knows it. When he arrived in the Central Plains, there was an evil law on it, saying that disasters can be passed on to others. He was evil on his body and believed in that saying, thinking that by killing those four people, he would be able to surpass the four sufferings, and since then he would be free and free from illness. No disaster. He is now in jail, still clinging to it, making a lot of noise in prison, saying that he is saving others by the Buddhist scriptures. He really does not repent!"

There was silence in the hall, and the emperor waved his hand and said, “I don’t think I need to wait until the autumn. Now that I have confessed and have all the material evidence, what are you doing? ."

"This must be a capital crime, I don't know what the emperor meant?"

"Cut it in the middle."

The murderous murder in the capital for months came to an end. Everyone thought about the tragedies, and then saw the thin and weak **** in front of him, 16 or 17 years old, standing there like a wicker in the early spring. But it was such a fragile young man. From the mess of everyone's helplessness and cluelessness, he gently and skillfully pulled out the first thread, sorted out all his thoughts, and felt an inexplicable emotion welled up in his heart. Come.

Li She smiled and said, "This little **** is really clever and smart. No wonder the last time I asked my fourth brother for a request, the fourth brother was reluctant to nod his head."

Li Shubai smiled and said, "Nine brothers are talking nonsense, I never said a word at that time."

"Yes, I will testify for the fourth brother." Li Wen also interrupted.

The emperor had a very good temper. He kept smiling while watching them bickering until a female officer came in behind him and whispered in his ear. Then he smiled and said, "Four brother, you have a double happiness recently. I will give you a family banquet first. Wait until you are overjoyed. On that day, I and the queen will visit your palace in person to congratulate you."

A group of people suddenly showed surprise expressions. Kang Wang Li Wen was the first to ask: "The fourth brother has chosen the princess? Which girl is it from?"

The emperor smiled and said: "Anyway, the book will be issued soon, so why don't you wait for curiosity? In short, the princess of the fourth brother, of course, is one of the best ladies in the world, and the fourth brother is a pair of people. Brilliant."
