Ming Diary

Chapter 23: Digging graves?

In fact, this is not the case. Cao Muwen is now worried. The thought of 'Jinyiwei' makes my scalp numb. I don't know when I got into trouble with Jinyiwei!

"Well, since you know my identity, I won't hide it from you." This is Wu Zheng who smiled and raised his hand repeatedly.

"Let me ask you a question first." Wu Zheng asked. Do you remember the Li member a few days ago? That's where you did the autopsy.

Cao Muwen couldn't help but be stunned. What's wrong? Although Wu Zheng is also a member of the government, he is not in charge of the three-class government service of arrest and search. He was quite surprised to ask about this today.

After thinking about it, he replied, "Remember, this man was indeed tested by a villain." In retrospect, I was also a routine at that time and did not test it in detail. It's just that it was indeed a sudden death of heart disease. It was just that many old people were sick and didn't think much about it. And because a group of government officials were impatient to go home for the New Year at that time, it was not easy for them to brush their interest. When they were young, it was not easy to offend these old officials. Although he vaguely felt that the face of Li's external body was slightly stiff and peculiar, it was also a rapid and painful expression at the time of the onset of the disease.

Remembering this, I remembered Wu Kui. Alas, he also died of illness. In ancient times, medical conditions were underdeveloped, and the diet and life were simple and lacked conditioning. Many people's diseases are also common in old age, mostly due to the root cause of the disease when they are young, so sudden diseases are not uncommon. At that time, people rarely doubted it.

"It's common for this person to die of a sudden illness, but~~" After saying that, there was a slight pause." But his identity is unusual.

"Identity?" Cao Muwen was shocked after hearing this. What's unusual about this person's identity? After saying that, I suddenly felt that it was not appropriate. I was just doing something. It was a big mistake to make a mistake in the inspection, and somehow I got into trouble with Jinyiwei. This Wu Zheng is estimated to be the hidden pile of Jinyiwei. Otherwise, how to explain how this government official can have something to do with Jinyiwei.

A major feature of this brocade guard is its organization. Although this Jinyiwei is an open organization used to monitor officials and people across the country, everyone is very afraid of it, because of people's fear of this, it is sometimes not conducive to Jinyiwei's action. Therefore, in addition to the headquarters and formal organizations of Beijing, there are naturally many "dark piles" and informers across the country. Secretly lurking, in addition to his official position in Jinyiwei, he also has a superficial identity as a cover outside, so he works better in the dark. Cao Muwen expected that Wu Zheng was probably such an identity. The position in this government office should be covered up.

"Wait? Is there any problem with this member Li?" Cao Muwen suddenly thought of it.

At this time, Wu Zheng said, "This member Li's identity is more than that. You don't have to know anything else. That's not what you should know. After saying that, he raised his eyebrows, raised his hand, picked up a piece of snack and put it in his mouth and slowly chewed it. A pair of shrewd eyes quietly looked at Cao Muwen, as if waiting for his answer.

The unworthy person said that Cao Muwen should also know what he should do now. I have only arrived for more than half a year, and I don't want to provoke Jinyiwei. If they are not satiable and find a stubble to put themselves into a prison for "hospitality", they will have to fade their skin even if they are not dead. I used to watch those movies and TV, and it looks light. If I let myself "enjoy" it in person. Now Cao Muwen is scared when he thinks about it. How dare you not obey!" Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"

Immediately turned Cao Muwen's expression with a respectful face.

"If adults want to have something to do, they must be done by the villain, and the villain will do his best." Cao Muwen said this sentence fluently without a trace of chatter.

Uh~~ Wu Zheng was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect that this young man still knew the rules. As soon as he revealed his identity, most of them softened their legs and begged for forgiveness. Sometimes it really embarrass me. Although I have been imprisoned and tortured, they are all for the public. Most of the time, the identity is also to let some people help with some cases. Although this brocade guard was cruel, he tortured the prisoner to death and persecuted Zhongliang. However, there is absolutely no implicated innocence.

For example, when Hong Wuye was at the time of Master Hong, Prime Minister Hu Weiyong plotted evil. The first person, Jinyiwei, commanded Mao Yu to be loyal to Taizu and tried his best to create a major case after Hu Weiyong's death. Although he was finally implicated in the burial, he was pushed out by Zhu Yuanzhang to make Hu Weiyong's cushion in order to calm the anger of the public. Jiang Yu, who replaced Mao Xiang, was the evidence of Lan Yu's rebellion. Of course, after the crazy Lan Yu case, he was also dealt with by Lao Zhu with a glass of poisoned wine. But this is "you can't die." It is to solve the difficulties for the Holy God. Although it is often implicated, the "conditions" in the imperial edict are worse, and the punishment when forcing confessions are more colorful, but are these all to speed up the progress of handling cases? We all came according to the will of the emperor, but unfortunately, we have to carry the blame!

Wu Zheng's family is the hereditary family of Jinyiwei. They also joined Jinyiwei when they were young. After working hard for more than 20 years, they mixed into 100 households and returned to Jingwei from the border guard. The central acid knows it. Knowing that this factory guard is not good in folk customs, he often complains in his heart.

Today, when I saw that Cao Muwen was very interesting, and I saw that this young man was handsome and a person who was literate and word-broken, I had a good impression. I only felt that this man only came to be a masterpiece.

Thinking for a little, he said:

"It was a little strange when Li died, and we want to confirm it again. This guy was just buried yesterday. We will open the coffin tonight, and you can examine it again. Do you understand?" After saying that, Wu Zheng went straight into his arms and took out a piece of broken silver from his arms and put it on the table. This matter is very important. Don't say anything, let alone let others know about it. Do you know what will happen if it leaks?" After saying that, Wu Zheng looked at Cao Muwen meaningfully.

Cao Muwen, who was sitting opposite, suddenly sweated coldly. My heart skipped to my throat. He hurriedly said, "No, no, the little man promised to close his mouth to death, even the crowbar could not be pried open." After saying that, he laughed and wrote it down.

Alas, unlucky. Cao Muwen felt unlucky in his heart. However, there is still money. No one can afford to get along with money. It happens that we are short of money now! As long as you are careful and don't anger them, everything will be fine.

Wu Zheng raised his eyebrows and seemed to be satisfied with this reply. He also said to Cao Muwen, "There is still half of it after the work is done. It depends on whether you can take it or not."

Cao Muwen is a submissive assurance.

Before leaving, Wu Zheng said a sentence.

"In the evening, we will meet under the old locust tree at the west entrance of the village. Don't be late."

Of course not, Cao Muwen knows the consequences. Slowly returning to the noisy street, he walked straight past the dragon and lion dance team that was performing hard. The spectators next to him were hurriedly cheering, accompanied by applause from time to time.

Although it is a taboo to dig other people's graves. But people don't care, how can they care? The most important thing is how can silver care!?

Once the Lantern Festival is over, the New Year is officially over. People's carnival for half a month has come to an end. Tomorrow, it's time to go to the field for spring ploughing, it's time to go out of the stall, it's time to read.

As soon as the second update was louder, the lights in the houses gradually went out in the originally brightly lit market. At this temple fair, the hawkers in the lantern market also packed up their bags, packed some goods, calculated the benefits of the past few days, and went home to rest.

There are fewer and fewer people on the street, and they are getting quieter and quieter, which is very different from a few hours ago.

It's late at night, and the bright moonlight is shining on the earth. It seems that the whole city is exhausted from the joy of the past few days. Now it is resting and sleeping particularly deeply.

"Bing, sting." Two crisp voices came, accompanied by a figure moving slowly in this cold winter night.

"Bing, sting." Two more sounds, "The sky is dry and dry. Be careful of the candles." Zhang Laosi, who updated, said in a loud voice.

Well, it's very dry, he thinks so. He put the pier under his armpit, raised his hand and pulled the collar of the robe hard, and pressed his fat cotton hat. The winter in Beijing is very dry, accompanied by a knife-like wind, blowing straight on the face, as if it can bleed.

Zhang Laosi accelerated his pace and wanted to finish his work quickly and get into the warm quilt because of the firewood under the bed and the daughter-in-law on the bed. On such a cold day, no one is still 'taken' on the street except me.

He seems to be wrong.

When Cao Muwen saw that there were no pedestrians outside, he packed some clothes and clamped his own wooden box to get ready to go out. Although many guys in this wooden box have not used anything by themselves, this afternoon Kui has foresight and has prepared it for himself in advance.

Before returning home, Cao Muwen ate two large plates of mutton dumplings from the street, and now his body is warm. Although it's late at night and it's particularly cold outside, I don't know it now. He settled down, opened the door, and raised his feet out of the door.

At the west entrance of the village, I don't know how many years the old locust tree has stood here and how many historical events it has witnessed. Now he is still standing here quietly, looking at the crowds of people who hurried by under the shade of its trees.

Cold night, under the tree. Four people are standing here.

"For good to arrive on time." Cao Muwen had a lingering thought.

The four people slowly moved to their destination. It is not far from the west entrance of the county, which is the place where Li was buried. After Li's death, there was no difference after the first inspection of Lang Zhong and Cao Muwen.
