Tomb robbing was not only punished in previous lives, but in ancient China it was also a serious crime that was not punished lightly.
According to research, laws prohibiting tomb robbing were promulgated as early as the Pre-Qin Dynasty.
"Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" written before the Qin Dynasty unified the six kingdoms, it was written that regarding tomb robbing, "Although the government prohibits it with severe majesty and serious crimes, it cannot be stopped."
"Old Book of Tang" has also mentioned many times: "Opening graves" and "Ten evil disobedience, violating official regulations, intentionally killing people, collaborating to make poisons, setting fires and fighting", etc. are crimes that cannot be released or even have their sentences reduced even if they are amnesty. .
It can be seen that the prohibition on tomb robbing has existed since ancient times.
In the Song Dynasty, strict laws were also promulgated to prohibit people from robbing tombs.
"Miss Su, you can't talk nonsense about this."
Even if her Fu family had a hundred courages, they would not dare to dig the grave.
"But this silver needle was indeed taken out from the tomb, and it will not be more than seven days old. If you go to a Taoist temple and ask a heavenly master, you can tell that this silver needle is full of Yin energy. It has been underground for at least thirty years. Year."
Yue Pingyu's face was as pale as a vegetable.
Finally realized that this matter is not simple.
"Mother Lin, where did you get this silver needle?"
Mother Lin looked at Yue Pingyu with twinkling eyes, rolled her eyes a few times, and then said, "I bought it on the street."
Fu Ziyan said in a deep voice: "Which street? What's the name of the store? When did you buy it?"
Su Yixin saw that Fu Ziyan was smart enough to take the road, so she took two steps back and held Mrs. Tian Er's arm. It seemed that she was leaving the matter to Fu Ziyan for trial, but in fact it was to better observe Mother Lin's every move. , and also to prevent her from dying suddenly.
I have seen too many people who were bribed to commit suicide by biting their tongues or taking poison.
"I bought it from the picker on Yangpo South Street."
His eyes moved so fast that he could tell he was lying at a glance, but Fu Ziyan also saw it and didn't bother to talk to Mother Lin. Instead, he said: "Mother, isn't Mother Lin's son working as a steward in Zhuangzi? Let him be killed. Bring it."
It's such a light sentence.
Let the calm mother Lin break her guard.
"This matter has nothing to do with my son. It was all done by the old servant."
Fu Ziyan is not a soft-hearted person, he knows how to hit a snake seven inches away. Just now, Mother Lin was so tough-talking, but once it concerns her son, she will immediately attack him.
When Fu Ziyan heard what Lin's mother said, his brows furrowed even deeper.
"You said you bought your Zhang family, but the Zhang family on Wangbei Street?"
Mother Lin nodded: "Exactly. That day, a woman who was about the same age as the old servant came to me and gave me twenty taels of silver. She said that as long as I said some bad things about the Tian family in front of my wife, I would pay her back before leaving. Give me a silver needle."
"The old servant really didn't know that the matter was so serious, and he didn't know that the silver needle was dug out of the grave. If he knew, the old servant would never do this."
"Zhang family..."
What else doesn't Tian Huilan understand? The Zhang family wants to use the Fu family's help to deal with the Tian family!
This wishful thinking is really good.
After investigating the matter, Lin's mother was temporarily taken away by Fu Ziyan's guards.
"Brother Yan, in-laws, you heard this. I was also deceived by Mother Lin about this matter. I didn't do it intentionally."
Yue Pingyu's mind could not imagine the twists and turns inside. Seeing that Tian Huilan was not as aggressive as before, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I will pretend that what happened today never happened. You must still recognize Qing Yao as my daughter-in-law. The wedding will be held on the originally scheduled date. If you don't want to, we can cancel the engagement now."
Yue Pingyu glanced at her son sarcastically.
"My in-laws, you are still angry! This child Qingyao was decided upon by my father and I together. How could we deny it? As you said, the wedding will be held on the originally scheduled date. Don't worry, Qingyao. When Yao comes here, I will treat her as my own daughter."
Tian Huilan snorted but said nothing.
Take Su Yixin and leave Fu's house.
As soon as they left, Fu Ziyan betrayed Mother Lin.
Back at Tian's house, Luo Wushang had returned from Zhang's house.
After a lot of chatter, he was asked to go to Zhang's house, and he really discovered a lot of things and overheard some things.
The first thing Su Yixin wants to confirm is that there is indeed a cultivator living in the Zhang family. His cultivation level is not particularly high and he has just formed an elixir.
Second, the Zhang family's original intention was to use Yue Pingyu's hand to deal with Tian Huilan, but an unexpected combination of circumstances made Yue Pingyu want to deal with Tian Qingyao.
That's why there is a situation where the Tian family has yin energy, but Tian Qingyao's house does not.
Luo Wushang also overheard the most important thing: the silver needle given to Lin's mother came from Qilingfang on Yangpo South Street.
Speaking of Qilingfang, there is some strange fate. The Yishangfang opened by Su Yixin was the original shop of Qilingfang. Due to the good business and the expansion of the shop, Qilingfang moved to not far from Yishangfang.
Diagonally opposite, one can vaguely see each other's pavements.
A jade shop selling silver needles?
Interesting, really interesting!
The Fu family's doll was destroyed, and Tian Qingyao's complexion turned red to the naked eye.
Tian Huilan came to the doctor again, took Tian Qingyao's pulse, and then prescribed a prescription to replenish blood and energy.
The corners of Tian Huilan's eyes were moist, and she felt frightened for a while.
"Yixin, thank you so much this time. Without you, Qingyao, this kid, I don't know if I could have saved my life."
"Ma'am, I'm serious. Not to mention you and me, we are in a cooperative relationship. Sister Qingyao and I hit it off."
It was getting late, so Tian Huilan personally delivered Su Yixin to the door. The carriage was out of sight, and then returned to her yard. She thought about writing a letter to inform her husband in Kyoto of the situation at home.
After Su Yixin came back, she freshened up and went to the study. There were only a few words about the grievances between the Tian family and the Fu family. The focus was on the silver needle that the Zhang family gave to the Fu family: "Zi Yuan, do you think there is any relationship between Qilingfang and the Zhang family?" relation?"
Gu Qingjue wrote the letter in his hand and told it to Sanqi.
Go around the desk and sit in front of the window.
The study room in Dengfeng County is exactly the same as the Gu family study room in Wangjia Village, with a warm couch in front of the window.
Su Yixin likes to sit here on weekdays.
After Gu Qingjue sat down, he said warmly: "The owner behind Qilingfang is called Ran Shihao. He is the second son of the Ran family in Kyoto. The Ran family serves the eight kings. As for the Zhang family, they intend to marry the Ran family, but the Ran family I don’t like the Zhang family, so I haven’t done it yet.”
Unexpectedly, Qilingfang was related to people from Kyoto.
Behind the scenes, there are eight powerful kings, which is really beyond Su Yixin's expectation.
I have seen many TV dramas about this period in my previous life. They talked about Bao Gong being impartial and selfless in solving cases like a god, and about the Eight Kings being impartial and careless.
She was also affected and always believed that the Eight Kings were decent people.
But now, Su Yixin doesn't dare to be so sure.
