MTL - Dali Temple Small Dining Room-Chapter 342 Fish Ball Soup (7)
Chapter 342 Fish ball soup (7)
Speak carefully, the two looked at each other for a long while, and tacitly drew a circle on Jiang Chengzu's name, and looked down again, the next two brought in the thick jackets they were wearing.
"They are all suspects who have been imprisoned for many years. Because the cases involved in them did not involve human life lawsuits, they are not too serious compared to most of the cases that our Dali Temple has taken over. They are allowed to visit the prison." The jailer said, "The jackets brought in After I inspected the bag, I brought it in and talked about a cup of tea. When I was talking, I watched and listened. They were all inquiries about my physical condition, and there was nothing wrong with it. Strange, let’s go.”
The records of the jailer in the roster are very detailed, who is visiting the prison, the location of the prisoner's cell, and the people involved in the case, etc. are all recorded.
"Both are old cases, and there are no deaths. The first one is that the children of the rich and powerful hurt each other while playing polo. Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu's complexion suddenly changed, the jailer saw this, and hurriedly said, "It's almost dangerous! At that time, the situation of the younger brother was very critical, and the matter was very troublesome. It was originally taken over by the people of Jingzhao Mansion, but both parties involved in it They are dignitaries, and they entrusted each other to compare each other, a case of hurting people for fun almost caused turmoil among the officials in the court, and finally the case came to Dali Temple."
"This case itself is actually two teams of polo-playing children who are slandering each other. These children are manipulated by their families without knowing how to measure. They are all trying to kill each other. Neither team is innocent and has problems. The case itself is not difficult. , each with 30 boards, but power is involved, so it has become an extremely complicated case," said the jailer, "Fortunately, the injured child has been raised by delicacies since he was a child, and his body is strong, and finally healed. There was a lot of quarreling and quarreling for a long time, and finally the case stopped by itself."
The matter itself is very clear, but it was forced to become a major matter, and now it has returned to a minor matter, but the case has not been dismissed, and it has been left in Dali Temple.
"The son of the rich and powerful who directly attacked and seriously injured people in those days later suffered a decline in family fortune. The friends of the past have dispersed like birds and beasts, but the deadly enemy is still active. He is also afraid of death. Prison food is the safest thing. Once you go out, you will remind your enemies who have long forgotten about him. Back then, they were all the children of the rich and powerful, and no one would let anyone else go. Now his family is in trouble..." The jailer shook his head as he said. , "The tree falls and the monkeys scatter" is applicable everywhere, "He has been in prison for many years, and he is the son of such a powerful and powerful person who came here, and he knows what kind of virtue a person like himself is."
Things of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups, which has always made sense. The opponents of the playboys are not necessarily motivated, but mostly the same type of people as themselves.
After Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu heard this, they couldn't help but fell silent. After a long while, Liu Yuan said, "It turned out that we used our Dali Temple prison as a refuge."
The jailer nodded, and then talked about another one: "There is also a theft case involved. When the late emperor was around, didn't there be a grand ceremony to worship the gods and bestow immortality almost every month? At the ceremony, some The baby begged the gods to lower their kindness. At first, the baby was picked from the treasury, but later it was not picked from the treasury at all, and someone took the initiative to offer it to show piety."
Of course, on the surface it looks pious to the gods, but in fact it is to please the king's heart.
"The grand ceremony is held outside the palace gate. Generally speaking, no one steals the treasures enshrined to the gods, so the guards on the treasures are very lax. But when people become poor, they are hungry and have nothing to eat, and sometimes they don't care about it." Offending the gods. During a grand ceremony, the jade enshrined to the gods was stolen, and because it was a matter of the gods, it naturally fell to Dali Temple..."
It sounds like a fairy thing, but it is actually the late emperor's business, so even if it is just a trivial matter, Dali Temple has to be involved.
"In less than half a day, the little thief was caught. The little thief was so frightened that he stumbled and fell off the tower and died when he was running away." The jailer said, "The little thief is dead. , we must continue to investigate, but it turned out that the little thief was an orphan with no relatives, after many investigations, the immortal masters were not good-looking, and finally arrested the pawnshop accountant who opened the pawnshop and took the jade..."
Jade does not come from the treasury, and there is no imperial seal, how can the pawnshop accountant know this? But the immortal masters refused to obey, and forcibly captured him and threw him into the Dali Temple.
"It's the family from the accountant who came here to send the thick coat." The jailer said, "Like the one who avoided disaster, they have been in the prison for many years. If you ask about the weather like this, you will leave in less than a cup of tea."
It sounds like the cases involving these two people are really not big compared to the rest of the prisoners in the prison. Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu put away the note that circled the names of Jiao Zhongren and Jiang Chengzu, and before leaving, they told the jailer: "Remember to test the things that Hu Siming enters every day, and then transfer Hu Siming to a cell. .”
The meaning of this sentence is obviously to prevent others from getting in touch with Hu Siming, and not to let Hu Siming die in such a "unexplained" way.
If Hu Siming is the key to the case, then he must be strictly monitored; if it is not...someone wants to silence him for no reason, there must be his purpose, and naturally he cannot let the killer succeed.
After leaving the prison, they were shivered by the oncoming wind and snow. The two walked forward quickly. When they reached the office lobby of the two, they must pass the public kitchen of Dali Temple. When they reached the courtyard of the public kitchen , just bumped into a few students who left with a large bag of small cooking oil paper bags, the two of them paused, and almost coincidentally turned their direction and entered the public kitchen yard.
The communal kitchen with stove and charcoal basin is very warm.
When the two went to prison, the hot snacks, especially the students’ favorite meat snacks and milk tea, were sold out, and the rest of the snacks were also sold out. Usually, they always sat behind the takeaway stalls to collect the bill. The one was replaced by A Bing, while Ji Caimai sat in front of a clean food table with Wen Mingtang and Tang Yuan, holding a pen while writing and dialing the abacus.
The voices of the three were not loud, and they vaguely heard words like "silver" and "market price".
A Bing couldn't sit still any longer. Seeing the two people coming, he quickly pointed to the remaining popcorn and rice crust, and yelled loudly: The sooner they are sold out, the sooner he can sit down and settle accounts with everyone!
Of course, Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu couldn't hide this thought. Looking at A Bing, who couldn't sit still, Bai Zhu was generous, and simply took away the remaining few packets of snacks, and then brought the bought snacks to the other side who was bowing his head to settle the score. Three people go.
Before he got close, Wen Mingtang's voice sounded.
"At the end of the year, due to the relationship between the takeaway stall, the money earned is not too small compared to the other cooks, but it is still far behind the sky-high price of Chang'an city houses. Some," said with a sigh, shaking his head, "The price of this house is really more expensive every year!"
