Chapter 742 Attempt

On the way back home, Sun Xuan and Hou Dabiao reported some things about the Jinyiwei government office, especially Song Nan's secret investigation before leaving.

The first thing is the investigation of the cause of death sentenced by the Lu Hospital of the Imperial Hospital, which has a lot to do with the infertility of Zhengde revealed by Gu Dayi before his death. Only a few people, including the Empress Dowager Ning and a minister in the court, know this news. Lu Yuan suddenly resigned and returned home, and then suddenly died. According to Song Nan's judgment, he must have been forced to commit suicide and let Hou Dabiao investigate the matter, which was also to confirm the authenticity of what Gu Dayu said from the side.

Hou Dabiao replied softly: "The humble job personally took people to Jizhou, the hometown of the Luyuan's judgment. The Lu family has indeed moved out of Jizhou and gone to Yunnan. According to the left and right neighbors of the former Luyuan's judgment residence in Jizhou, the Luyuan closed the door after returning home. They only went out once in more than ten days, and only took a short walk in the mountains and fields for a while, but He looked as usual and didn't look like an old disease. Beizhi found the burial place judged by the Lu Yuan and took three coffins for an autopsy. The lower part of the throat bone judged by the Lu Yuanjian was broken and concave, which was the symptom of the self-delinated person. Although the person who hangs himself may not break his throat bone, but according to the figure and weight judged by Lu Yuan, the bone of the neck when he hangs himself cannot bear the weight of his body, and it is normal for the throat bone to be broken.

Song Nan nodded slightly. He was not surprised by Hou Dabiao's behavior at all. Jinyiwei did a lot of things to dig people's graves and break into private houses at night to handle cases. Song Nan initially felt that it was not good, and over time, he got used to it. This was also a means of handling cases, and there was nothing to point out.

"This is not enough. Is there any trace of the Lu family who moved to Yunnan? Only by finding them can we confirm the real cause of death.

Hou Dabiao hurriedly said, "The humble position has sent people to Yunnan to find it. It may take some time. After all, it is not easy to find a few people who have relocated. The humble position suspects that the Lu family intends to hide their traces, otherwise why can't they see the Lu family in the naturalization record of the government?"

Song Nan said, "That's also common. Since they are forced to move, they naturally don't want to cause trouble again. It's possible to hide their names. Someone forced them to move away from home, and may also hide traces for them, all of which need you to dig out. This matter is very important. You have to do it well and don't slack off.

Hou Dabiao nodded and said that he retreated behind his father-in-law, and then Sun Xuan rushed to Song Nan's side to report that this was the rule of Jin Yiwei. When a person reported the matter, others would retreat beyond his father-law without permission and were not allowed to interrupt.

"The matter of the interaction between the southern officials and the king of Ning who ordered the humble position to investigate has been investigated by the humble position." Sun Xuan whispered.

Song Nan stopped, pulled him to the corner of the street and stood there, and whispered, "Ty."

Sun Xuan said, "The king of Ning and nearly 40 officials in Yingtianfu and Ganwan are very frequent. This is the list. Please have a look."

Sun Xuan took out a roll of parchment from his skin bag with dozens of names and official positions densely written on it. Obviously, it was a very secret matter. Sun Xuancai took this thing with him and did not put it in the iron cabinet of Jinyiwei.

Song Nan glanced at it, which listed several leading generals of Nanjing Military Department, Jin Wuwei, and the military guards, the lives of a group of officials in Jiangxi and Northwest Anhui, as well as the general facts of the relationship with King Ning. For example, on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, he went to the Ning Palace in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province to have a banquet. On a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, he was treated as a concubine by the king of Ning, and on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, he traveled to Jiuhua with the king of Ning.

Seeing Song Nan's deep eyebrows, Sun Xuan said in a low voice, "Your Excellency, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say it or not."

Song Nan said, "If you have to say it, don't hesitate."

Sun Xuan said, "Although I don't know why adults have to investigate the relationship between Ning Wang and these people, they are not fools. This investigation really shocked me. Regarding this list, I don't know if the adults have seen any clues.

Song Nan said lightly, "Do you still need to look at this? The officials on this list are all leading generals, and their men hold more or less soldiers and horses. King Ning is mixed with them. Hey hey, things are a little tricky.

Sun Xuan picked up his finger and praised: "Your Excellency is aware of Qiuhao. I have only found this secret after looking at it several times. The adult's eyes are like a torch. What is King Ning doing? As a local vassal king, it's okay to make friends with local officials and gentry, and it's okay to make friends with local famous scholars and literati to play in the mountains and rivers, but it's unusual to make friends with the generals of the imperial court. Moreover, with the respect of the prince, there is no need to give these concubines, which seems a little abrupt. It is said that King Ning bought more than a dozen brothers in Nanjing. These women are the best selected from them, all of whom are good in color and art, which is a little like..."

Song Nan knew what Sun Xuan was going to say and waved his hand to stop him and said, "It's better to keep some things in mind. At present, these don't mean anything. You have to check it, but you have to be careful not to be caught by others. Your lord doesn't want to provoke this prince. The relationship between him and the emperor is very harmonious. I don't want the emperor to be unhappy.

Sun Xuan nodded and said, "I understand that when I was investigating these things, I felt that there was a person who was a little strange. I don't know whether I know this person or not."

Song Nan frowned and said, "Who? What's so strange?"

Sun Xuan said, "This man is Wang Shouren, the governor of southern Jiangxi. When I investigated these things, Jinyiwei found that he also seemed to be secretly investigating these things. If it hadn't been for my Jinyiwei's old-fashioned behavior, he would have almost found it."

Song Nan frowned and thought, "Wang Shouren? The name is very familiar. I seem to have heard of it somewhere.

Sun Xuan said, "This man was originally a Beijing official and served as the head of the Ministry of Industry. He has a bad temper. He once suffered Liu Jin's board in front of the Qianqing Palace."

Song Nan suddenly patted her forehead and suddenly remembered that Li Dongyang, Liu Jian, Xie Qian and others in the cabinet led a letter to Zhengde to kill the eight tigers of the inner court and involve herself. There was a scene of a court staff in front of the Qianqing Palace. Dai Suer's father died in front of the Qianqing Palace after being humiliated by the court staff. At that time, a young official who came out wanted to make a head for Dai Mill and was fined ten sticks by Liu Jin. At that time, he couldn't see it and said a few words before letting Liu Jin bypass him.

Wang Shouren said to himself afterwards: Don't think I will be grateful to you for saving me. You are all slang ministers! Song Nan was impressed by this sentence. Although Sun Xuan reminded him a little after more than seven years, he immediately remembered it.

"It turned out to be him." Song Nan nodded slightly: "He became the governor of Gannan. This is a promotion."

"After Liu Jin was ambushed, a group of civilian officials who were demoted in those years were all used, and Wang Shouren naturally was promoted all the way. I heard that this person has a lot of reputation. Since he founded the college and publicized the theory of the unity of knowledge and action, he actually has the tendency to fight against Cheng Zhu's science. He is not famous in the capital, but he is very famous in the Jiangxi and Anhui area and even in the scribe circles of the Ming Dynasty.

"Is knowledge and action unified?" Song Nan frowned. Although he did not have any interest in philosophy and science in later generations, many historical celebrities and their writing theories that he was not interested in were stuffed in his mind for more than ten years of study. As soon as he mentioned the words of the combination of knowledge and action, he suddenly recalled the dusty memory of many years in his mind.

"Wang Shouren... Wang Yangming... Mr. Yangming... Combining knowledge and action... Learning..." Song Nan muttered to herself in a daze.

"Your Excellency, my Excellency?" Sun Xuan saw that Song Nan looked a little confused and hurriedly asked.

"Oh, it's him. He's here. Why am I so confused?" Song Nan suddenly shouted, which scared Sun Xuan and everyone around him.

"Does the adult know him?"

"It's more than knowing him, it can be said that I admire him." Song Nan said he admired, but there was no respect in his tone. For Song Nan, he just remembered another historical celebrity. As for the combination of mind and knowledge and action, Song Nan did not want to have anything to do with these.

"Find an opportunity, I have to meet this person." Song Nan smiled and walked forward with everyone. Far ahead was Zhengnanfang Caishi Street, and Song Mansion was in the green willows in front of him.

(PS: Whenever I write this history, I can't help but mention Wang Shouren. You can search Wang Shouren's life and the height in history; but for me, I really can't write this person well. I'm not as interested in Confucianism as Song Nan. It seems that I have to do my homework to write. Try to reduce this kind of content. If I can't get around it, I would rather not touch this person from beginning to end. In pain...)
