Next, several groups of people came one after another, wanting to take over "Bao Si" under Jiang Tian's control; but they were all blocked by the Kodakya siblings unceremoniously on the grounds that they could not be trusted. It wasn't until Guo Chongtao, who came after hearing the news, showed up with his people. Jiang Tiancai wrote lightly:
"Lao Guo, I have a merit and achievement right now. It depends on whether you dare to take it or not?"
"Is there anything I dare not ask for!"
Guo Chongtao, who dropped everything in his hands and rushed over overnight, was surprised: he looked at the groups of people waiting nearby with mixed emotions, with different expressions; this person seemed to have some inexplicable luck and secrets, so no matter where he went, , there are always unexpected incidents and discoveries.
"That's good. The thief I happened to discover seems to have something to do with the case that Xantai is investigating."
Jiang Tian kicked the unconscious Bao Si, and after confirming that he was still alive, he chuckled:
"That's fine, just leave it to me. It's just Jiang Sheng, do you have any other requirements?"
Guo Chongtao no longer asked why and immediately agreed:
"The only request is that Xantai can conduct the trial on the spot."
Jiang Tian glanced at "Sister" and said as agreed:
"This?... I'm afraid it's a little against the rules."
Guo Chongtao was slightly embarrassed, but he did not completely refuse.
"Because the identity of the people involved is quite sensitive, and it is really not appropriate to transfer to another place to hear the case; I also ask for Xian Tai's forgiveness."
At this time, without Jiang Tian opening his mouth, "Sister", who put on her curtain hat again and wrapped gauze around her neck, took the initiative to come over and said;
"It turns out that Madam is here. Since you are the one who spoke, I can naturally trust you."
After hearing this, Guo Chongtao walked downhill and said politely:
"Then please do it yourself."
"Sister" nodded slightly, then turned back to the women upstairs. If it weren't for the purpose of avoiding suspicion, and the suggestion and recommendation of the gentleman/benefactor, this mere supervisory censor would not be in her eyes.
However, Guo Chongtao had some vague misunderstandings. He seemed to have offended this daughter of a noble family inexplicably when they met. But he didn't think much about it. He just looked at "Bao Si" who was being held by Jiang Tiancai, and couldn't help joking:
"I didn't expect that the person who committed the crime would be such a Jiao'e?"
"Jiao'e? This one doesn't really count. At best, she's just a fake Xibei."
Jiang Tian laughed when he heard this:
"What! Could it be..."
Guo Chongtao's expression changed when he heard this, and he suddenly said solemnly:
"That's what you think! Fortunately, I caught you. The next step depends on your methods and countermeasures."
Jiang Tian understood and said:
"There is such a heartbreaking thing, please wait a moment..."
Guo Chongtao did not reminisce about the past or talk too much, but turned around and walked out for more than ten steps and gave a few instructions to his subordinates who were waiting outside. Then, the graceful girl, followed by the maid with a sword, appeared in front of Jiang Tian again, and said with a low eyebrow:
"The slave family is at the gate. Everyone who is on duty in this garden knows that Tian is here to help with my master's order."
"The next thing to do is to follow the orders of this gentleman...He Xiantai, and I will do whatever I want."
"That's good. I'd like to ask you to be careful next time, so that you can verify your identity."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tian immediately understood and said: This girl Guan Guan is a product of Pingkangli's characteristics. It is a mutual aid organization and association composed of advocates and actors. Everyone in the society is called brothers and sisters, and the leader is called Duzhi.
In addition to helping each other in birth, old age, sickness and death, and holding together to keep warm when encountering difficulties, they also organize various banquets including Jinshi welcome and appreciation banquets; they even provide purposeful support and investment to some Jinshi from poor backgrounds.
Lu Siye, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy in the previous generation, wrote a poem "To Sun Zhuangyuan to complain about the fine of alms", "I don't know everything, I often lose money. I work hard with pen and inkstone, and I will help flowers and flowers.", describing this unprecedented grand occasion. and scene.
Therefore, after many years, it has become an existence with considerable energy and influence in social activities. These large and small mutual aid associations are also one of the main existing forces that currently constitute Pingkang Sanli, which in a sense has limited autonomy and maintains daily order.
"Qiaoyun, come and help me."
Everyone knows that Guan Guan immediately ordered the maid with the sword:
Afterwards, they collected some small items from the body of "Bao Si" who was unconscious on the ground, including a crochet hook hidden in a bun, a flesh-colored patch used to cover his Adam's apple, and sewn them into the hidden pocket inside the dress. vial; lining to pad the chest...
Finally, when she touched the base of her legs, the maid's expression changed slightly and she raised her head to face everyone present and shook her head gently. Guo Chongtao couldn't help but frown:
"Is it possible that he is still a castrate?"
But "Sister" and Kodakya, who insisted on coming to witness, immediately turned their attention to Jiang Tian. Jiang Tian didn't say anything. He just thought for a moment and asked someone to take the largest sewing needle and stab it hard at a painful point under "her" ribs as the corpse was stretched out.
This is also one of the methods used by the militiamen Jiang Tian encountered and communicated with to interrogate so-called IS prisoners; it is a nerve-rich place that is not fatal but can cause great pain. In an instant, only a miserable scream was heard, and "Bao Si", who was in a coma, woke up from the pain almost with eyes wide open.
However, at the same time that "she" was struggling to wake up from the pain, the base of her leg, which originally seemed empty, seemed to be magic, and a large ball rose up out of thin air. The maid who was performing compressions was immediately shocked. , suddenly fell to the ground.
Both "Sister" and Guan Guan couldn't help but turn pale; because what they were most worried about happened, and their last bit of luck was shattered.
At this time, the preliminary investigation on the identity and background of this "Bao Si" lady was delivered outside as expected. The familiar person, Guo Feng, personally delivered it and reported in public:
"It has been found out that Mrs. Bao Si is one of the ten leaders of the family released from the palace. She was originally in charge of Yunshao Mansion, ranked in the Zuile Club, and her residence is in Yichun Courtyard..."
"Later, in the name of the female history of instrumental music, I was hired by many families to teach the art of instrumental music..."
Hearing this, it was about the release from the palace, the person in front, the Yunshao Mansion, and the origin of Yichun Yuan. Everyone present suddenly felt a huge wave of excitement in their hearts.
You must know that the so-called pioneers released from the palace, also known as palace people, are the collective name for the advocates and musicians who were selected into the palace because of their outstanding talents. As big as the capital and the gathering of people are, it can only maintain dozens of families. Just scale.
The best among them will be selected into the inner enshrinement courtyard, and thus they will be qualified to appear in front of the emperor frequently, and even have the honor of being escorted in and out of the palace; for example, in history, Xie Aman, Yong Bride, and even Gongsun Auntie, all have this List.
The Yunshao Mansion is an official office used to manage palace vocal music, and its personnel have corresponding internal official grades and titles. As for Yichun Yuan, it was founded by the Emperor Ming and was second only to the Liyuan Palace as the palace's vocal, singing and dancing training place.
Therefore, for example, when the lady knew that the lady was in trouble, she just felt that the sky was about to fall; on the night she was on duty, so many incidents happened in quick succession, and no matter which one she could not bear, she couldn't bear it. Not to mention that it involves palace affairs.
And "Sister" secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because once this huge right and wrong got involved in the palace, it would naturally no longer be limited to the Jinlan Society of these noble women, and they would have to Someone had to step forward.
As the person who bore the brunt of the supervision, Guo Chongtao complained bitterly:
"Jiang Sheng, you have really done me a huge wrong! Next, I need to take the first step to clear up the integrity of this headquarters."
