Now Zhu Ying, in addition to the government affairs that must be handled, stays with Ye Yueqing almost every day.
Different from some current concepts, Zhu Ying, who has memories of past lives, attaches great importance to the company of his wife.
Most of the time, I took care of her myself, without resorting to the hands of eunuchs or maids.
"Your Highness, is Di Yusen really that talented? He was just a historian before, and now he is suddenly responsible for such a big job. Will it be difficult to control him?" Ye Yueqing and Zhu Ying chatted, their faces full of happiness.
smell.
If you get a husband like this, what else can your wife ask for?
Zhu Ying's meticulous care for her recently was seen in his eyes and remembered in his heart.
Although Annan Anxiu Princess Chen Muyue has been canonized as the grandson's concubine, Zhu Ying spends a lot of time staying with Ye Yueqing every day.
Zhu Ying heard Ye Yueqing's question and replied with a smile: "I don't know what his talents are, but in the current court, I need to promote one of my own."
"Di Yusen, as the Di family of Taiyuan, has the reputation of being a descendant of Di Renjie in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and he also concentrates on breaking eucalyptus. This is a good seedling for me."
"This time, it can be considered that he came by chance. If we can really crack the truth, my idle James Mansion will eventually be developed."
"Nowadays, in terms of people's livelihood and the military, things are progressing steadily according to the designated plan. Only in internal affairs, there is a shortage of talents."
"It is said that the scholars in the world all read the Four Books and Five Classics, the Confucian Way."
"You also know these classic principles. Even if you are a top scholar, when used in real affairs, sometimes you are not as good as a simple official."
"Now that the Ming Dynasty is facing constant foreign wars, what it needs most internally is stability. With the beginning of the war between Japan, the southwest, and even the grasslands, it means that there will be more people with ulterior motives sneaking into the capital."
"Talents like Di Yusen, who are good at breaking eucalyptus, are in short supply now. Whether he can take over the leadership of James's house depends on his performance this time."
Listening to Zhu Ying's explanation, Ye Yueqing nodded gently.
In fact, she doesn't care much about these now. What he cares about most now is Zhu Ying and the fetus in her belly.
But with Zhu Ying by his side, I had to find something to talk about.
Ye Yueqing is a smart woman and has never competed for Zhu Ying's limelight in any aspect.
Like Di Yusen, she could clearly detect that Zhu Ying was a little proud when talking about him, so she took advantage of it to say a few words.
"Actually, Your Highness does not need to accompany me every day. I am in very good health now, and there are so many palace maids and eunuchs taking care of me."
"Before, when His Highness had not returned, Concubine Ning had always been by my side to accompany me."
"I know that His Highness cares about me, but in this big world, there are still many subjects and people who also need His Highness' care."
"Because I alone have involved too much of His Highness's energy, I feel very guilty in my heart."
Ye Yueqing said softly, this was what she was thinking in her heart.
She really longs for His Highness's company, but as the grandson of the Ming Dynasty, she is bound to not have much free time.
Ye Yueqing, who had previously been in charge of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, understood that for Zhu Ying, there were endless government affairs.
Zhu Ying gently scratched Ye Yueqing's nose with her fingers, and said with a smile: "You, your belly is so big, and you still want me to leave."
"There are indeed a lot of things, but in such a big country, it can never be handled by just a few people."
"What I want to do is to formulate a general direction for the truth ahead, and the specific affairs require the help of my ministers."
"Although grandpa does everything himself, I don't want to imitate him. Being tired is the second best thing. The key is to pin all the affairs of a country on one person. This is an extremely dangerous thing."
The prosperity of a country may be due to the emergence of a wise king, but the foundation of the country's continuation is indeed the country's laws and regulations.
No matter which dynasty it is, there will always be mediocre monarchs. This is inevitable.
If the system is more perfect, at least a few unscrupulous descendants can survive.
Zhu Ying still has a long way to go if he wants to realize his ideal Ming Dynasty in his lifetime.
When Ye Yueqing heard these principles, she seemed to understand them but not quite.
But she believes that her husband can definitely handle all this.
...
Yingtianfu Yamen is also the capital Yamen.
In the mortuary in his office, Di Yusen looked solemnly at the corpses of the four commanders.
In the Ming Dynasty, Wu Zuo was one of the thirty professions. Post-mortem medicine began to rise in the Han Dynasty. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Wu Zuo profession emerged.
Although now we attach great importance to the noon work, and even issued a decree that there must be three people in the upper county, two in the middle county, and one in the lower county.
However, those who have held the post of Wu Zuo since ancient times usually have a very low status. However, in the Ming Dynasty, there is a clear provision that the descendants of Wu Zuo are not allowed to take the imperial examination to become officials.
If you deal with corpses for a long time, you will always receive some different looks.
However, good afternoon work is extremely important for cutting off eucalyptus.
At present, the Ming Dynasty's Wu Zuo and the books for study mainly come from "The Collection of Cleansing Wrongdoes" compiled by Song Ci in the Southern Song Dynasty, which contains various methods of Wu Zuo autopsy.
In ancient times, especially the body after death was extremely taboo.
In the eyes of many people, dissecting a corpse is a kind of desecration of the corpse. Even in special circumstances, it is necessary to obtain the approval of the superior and the consent of the family of the corpse before the corpse can be dissected to a certain extent.
The burial and destination location and specifications of the corpse are believed to affect the fate of the family's descendants.
Therefore, one cannot die without a complete body, let alone one without a burial.
This also leads to the fact that even anatomy has many constraints and rules.
This requires that most of the time, without dissecting the body, the detailed test results must be reported to the superior officer and kept as a file for reference.
Therefore, during the afternoon session, you need to understand a lot of professional knowledge, be proficient in anatomy, pharmacology and pathology, know which meridians will be injured and which organs will be endangered, and what kind of poison will cause what symptoms.
The more accurate the judgment, the more helpful it will be in solving the problem.
Therefore, almost all afternoon compositions are taught by famous teachers.
They worked diligently and responsibly, examining the corpse in great detail, from hair to fingernails, never missing any detail. A corpse would always be turned over and over to look for anything suspicious.
Including rotten corpses, the clever Wu Zuo also has a way to verify it, and even judge what kind of poison was poisoned based on the color of the bones.
Di Yusen was not a novice, but his autopsy techniques were extremely superb.
This is a family tradition, passed down from the hands of Di Renjie during the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Di Yusen is naturally familiar with "The Collection of Cleansing Wrongdoes", but the family records of the afternoon writing experience are Di Yusen's real skills.
After years of pondering, research, and practice, Di Yusen has completely mastered the ancestral knowledge of afternoon work.
After the autopsy was completed, Di Yusen said to the recording official next to him:
"Remember, all four of them have fatal injuries on their chests, and their faces look swollen, as if someone had pinched their necks."
"Other than that, there are no other injuries or signs of fighting. The four of them are generals in the army and have strong martial arts skills. They are suspected to have been poisoned beforehand."
"It was suspected that he was poisoned by Gelsemium spp. He was suffocated and paralyzed. His whole body was sore and limp, and he was killed by someone."
The official next to him wrote quickly and soon recorded all of Di Yusen's words.
Then he asked with some confusion: "Master Di, is it gone now?"
Di Yusen nodded and said, "No more."
The official didn't expect that Di Yusen had been watching here for almost an hour and a half, and finally summed it up in just a few sentences.
Di Yusen naturally saw the official's doubts and said, "You can deduce a lot of things just by looking at the key cause of death."
"These four people are all powerful generals on the battlefield. Even if they are ordinary, they may not be able to be dealt with by a few thieves."
"Especially when four people are together, or when twenty or thirty people surround them, they may not be able to completely kill them."
"But now there are no signs of violent fighting on the bodies of the four people. In addition, the faces are swollen. This is only possible if they are poisoned in advance."
"The murderer was very thoughtful. After the murder, he threw the body into the water. When he first died, a large amount of river water was poured into his abdomen, which eliminated traces of poison."
"The poison of Gelsemium is not a fatal poison, it mainly paralyzes the whole body, which gives the murderer an opportunity to take advantage of it."
"Now we only need to find out where the four of them had food and drinks before they were alive, and the clues will begin."
Upon hearing this, the official in charge of recording looked a little surprised at first, and then a little weird.
Seeing this, Di Yusen asked: "What's wrong? Do you know where the four of them had meals and drinks?"
The official said: "Master Di, many people know this. When the four of them left, they ended up going to Duke Liang's mansion. With Duke Liang's temperament, they must have entertained them with good wine and meat."
After Di Yusen heard this, he immediately felt a little troubled.
Everyone in the entire Ming Dynasty knows the name of Duke Liang. He is a first-class famous general.
The key is that he is famous for his violent personality.
Regarding the incident where Duke Liang had kicked out all the ministers of Dali Temple, I had already heard about it on the way here.
But right now, the only clue is over there. I can't go on this trip.
There was a bit of sarcasm in the official's eyes.
I feel a bit jealous of this person who was suddenly valued and promoted by His Majesty the Grand Sun from a young age.
Wu Zuo's ability was nothing, and he didn't believe that Di Yusen could really get to the bottom of the case.
On Di Yusen's side, after hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Get your horses ready and go to the Duke of Liang's Mansion to meet you."
The official's face couldn't help showing a bit of surprise, and he asked: "Master Di, are you sure you want to go? That is the Duke of Liang's mansion."
Di Yusen nodded and said: "Go, you must go."
The official's face couldn't help but reveal a look of gloating.
Even the ministers of Dali Temple were kicked out, why do you, Di Yusen, think you can go?
Maybe you can't even get to the gate.
Just wait and see the good show.
....
In front of Duke Liang's mansion, Di Yusen took out a greeting card and said to the servant who opened the door:
"Please also send a message that Di Yusen, the Prime Minister of Jing County of Yingtian Prefecture, is here to pay a visit to Duke Liang."
The servant looked at the greeting card and did not reach out to receive it. Instead, he said with a bit of disdain: "Before you, the ministers of Dali Temple have already been here. How can you, a small prime minister of Jingxian County, come here?"
What qualifications do you have to meet Duke Liang?"
"Hurry up and leave. This is not something that a small official like you can get started with. If you come to the mansion and are below the fifth rank, there is no need to pass it on."
Di Yusen frowned. He didn't expect that it would be so difficult for him to even enter the door.
But of course it's impossible not to go in. Currently, all the clues to Yuzi are at the Duke of Liang's Mansion.
"I would also like to ask this little brother to inform Duke Liang that I have been ordered by His Highness Taisun to supervise the murder of the commander of the capital. Now due to the development of the situation, I need to see Duke Liang to understand some of the situation."
"If this delays the investigation, I guess you won't be able to afford it."
When the servant heard this, he looked a little panicked and hesitant.
After thinking for a while, he said: "You'd better come back later. The master was furious inside earlier. If I go to report this, I will be beaten."
Di Yusen said seriously: "If you report it now, the most you will get is scolding. If you don't report it, I will write it on the file, and you will not be able to bear the crime."
After hearing this, the servant weighed the pros and cons in his mind and said, "Just wait here. I'll go in and make a briefing before talking."
Di Yusen nodded.
....
Lan Yu was a little upset now, regretting that she should have kicked the Dali Temple minister out.
Through my sister's persuasion before, I also learned about my current situation.
But he was asked to go to the Minister of Dali Temple to apologize, but he couldn't save his face.
At this time, a servant came over: "Master, there is a man outside the door who claims to be the Prime Minister of Yingtianfu County and wants to see the master."
"Because the commander of the capital was killed."
Lan Yu was already irritable at this moment. Hearing this, he scolded: "What qualifications does a Jing County magistrate have to question me and drive him away?"
The servant trembled in his heart, bowed his head, then turned and left.
"Wait."
Lan Yu stopped the servant and asked, "What's that man's name?"
When the servant heard this, he quickly stopped and replied, "That man's name is Di Yusen."
Lan Yu remembered that His Highness Taisun had recently transferred an official from the local area, and that was his surname Di.
The Di family's name is not resounding. Although it has a long history, it is not considered a wealthy family.
As for the names of Di Renjie's descendants, Lan Yu had heard of them.
Since he is a member of His Highness Taisun, he is also one of our own.
"Go and invite people in." Lan Yu ordered.
The servant never thought that the master would actually meet the man outside, and he was glad that he finally reported it.
Otherwise, as the official outside said, we would have committed a serious crime.
Soon, Di Yusen, who had received the warning, followed the servants to the lobby.
The first thing you notice is the lobby, which looks a bit messy.
Although Lan Yu had ordered people to clean it up, he had been too heavy-handed and many seat items had been damaged before they had time to replace them.
"Your Majesty, Di Yusen, pays homage to Duke Liang."
