She thought that she could bully the Cao family with the official favor.
If she wants to climb to that position, it also depends on whether Zhang Wanqing has the destiny.
After going to court, Wu Yu followed Gu Qingjue back to the Su Mansion.
Gu Qingjue stood in front of the mansion and looked at Wu Yu: "Master Wu, is there something wrong?"
"I'm already here, why don't you invite me to come in and sit down?"
"Master Wu, please."
Gu Qingjue invited Wu Yu to the study room in the front yard. This study room was a pure study room. There were two rows of bookshelves in it. The books on the bookshelves could be purchased in the study hall.
Then there is the table for making tea.
"Your study is too simple!"
Gu Qingjue chuckled lightly and asked Wu Yu to sit down. There were tools for making tea next to him.
Wu Yu was anxious, but when he saw Gu Qingjue playing with the tea set in such a leisurely manner, he gradually calmed down.
By the time the fragrant tea was brought to him, a quarter of an hour had passed.
"My lord, please try and see how the tea made by Ziyuan tastes."
Wu Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip, his eyes brightened: "Good tea. This tea looks like Xiaolongtuan. I have drunk it before, but it is not as fragrant as the one brewed by Master Gu."
Gu Qingjue waited for Wu Yu to take a sip before picking up the tea in his hand.
"Master Gu's tea-making skills are incredible!"
"As long as Mr. Wu likes it."
Wu Yu saw that Gu Qingjue never mentioned the purpose of his visit, so he could only take the initiative to speak: "Master Gu, I came here this time to tell you about the discovery of more than ten bones in the east of the city."
"Huh? Didn't Mr. Wu say that Wu Zuo has confirmed the identity of the corpse?"
"It has been confirmed that the only male corpse among the corpses is the weapon being held by Shaosong. Your Excellency only needs to follow this clue to investigate."
Wu Yu said with a headache: "It would be nice if it was as simple as Mr. Gu said. The male corpse has been identified, but the more than ten female corpses, after checking so many missing people, their identities have not been found."
Gu Qingjue's eyebrows raised: "Is it possible that the identities of those women are hidden? Even if they are dead or missing, no one will report them?"
Wu Yu: "..."
This, then it can only be a secret prostitute.
Wu Yu went to Shaosong's home and interviewed the officials who had worked with him before, and indeed he said that Yu Shaosong was good-looking.
So, the identity of these women is very likely...
But even if he knew this, he couldn't be connected to the murderer.
Who was the murderer? Why did he kill Yu Shaosong and bury him with those women?
"Ordnance Supervisor, a fourth-grade official. When he disappeared, the government and the public were shocked. The officials sent so many people to search and investigate, but there were no clues. Who can do it so neatly?"
"Zi Yuan doesn't know about this."
Wu Yu was a little disappointed, but with such a guess about the identity of those women, maybe he could find some clues by changing his thinking.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your hospitality. Farewell!"
Gu Qingjue stood up, personally sent Wu Yu out of the house, and then went to the backyard to find Yixin.
The two of them sat face to face on the warm couch in the study room in the backyard.
"Listen to what you said, Master Wu suspected that the death of the weapon supervisor was not man-made?"
Gu Qingjue nodded: "That's what I meant, but I didn't say it clearly. Mr. Wu has excellent ability to solve crimes. If it was man-made, he wouldn't come to me and tell me this. The most likely person is the one who killed the weapons supervisor, not a human!"
"This..., the military officer is under the supervision of a fourth-grade officer and is protected by officials. Even if he is a fatuous official, he is not something that ordinary monsters and monsters can persecute at will. Killing an official of the imperial court is tantamount to committing suicide!"
After Su Yixin's analysis, Gu Qingjue had a rough guess: "If this is the case, it means he is not being sent by others, but he has a grudge against the military supervisor."
Only in this way can one not be afraid of the fatal backlash caused by killing the imperial official.
After saying this, Gu Qingjue said that today in the court, the officials talked about promoting Lady Miao to Concubine Miao and Concubine Zhang to Concubine Chen.
Su Yixin looked at Gu Qingjue in surprise: "Did the official say it himself?"
Gu Qingjue nodded: "I think I wanted to promote Madam Zhang to her position, but I didn't want her to be so conspicuous, so I promoted Madam Miao, who also has a princess, to the same rank."
Su Yixin chuckled.
In history, Lady Zhang was indeed very favored, but there is no record in the history books that Emperor Renzong wanted to promote her to a concubine.
There is no mention of Concubine Miao.
If the officials really mentioned this matter in court, it would be recorded in the history books, but in Su Yixin's memory, there really is no such thing.
Could it be that history is beginning to deviate from its original trajectory?
Please do not.
She was able to give Gu Qingjue advice and early warning precisely because she was familiar with history.
But if history is no longer history, she will be blind.
Before Yu Shaosong's case could be found out, Chen Raozuo passed away on October 26 at the age of 82.
Chen Raozuo was an important official during the period of Empress Dowager Zhang Xian.
After taking office as an official, Chen Raozuo was implicated and dismissed from office. It took Jingyou four years to sit in the position of prime minister. He was already seventy-six years old at that time. In the first year of Kangding, he became the prince and grand master and lived in peace in his old age.
Although his time as prime minister was short and due to his old age, he did not achieve much during his tenure.
However, he still put forward many useful methods in water conservancy. For example, in order to prevent the Qiantang tide, he proposed the "lower salary and solid soil method", and in order to block the gap of the Yellow River in Huazhou, he invented the "wooden dragon water killing method". They also built embankments and planted willows on both sides of the Fen River to prevent floods.
In October, two prime ministers died.
Everyone felt sad.
In November, the weather suddenly turned cold. On the second day of November, after going to court, Wu Yu slipped out of the palace gate and got into Gu Qingjue's carriage.
"Master Gu's carriage looks ordinary from the outside, but I didn't expect it to be so spacious inside."
Wu Yu sniffed and put his hands on the hand stove on the middle table to bake. When his body warmed up, he looked at Gu Qingjue happily.
"Master Gu, I heard that my younger siblings are very good at craftsmanship..."
"Master Wu, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. It's not your style to beat around the bush!"
Wu Yu raised his thumb: "Master Gu is still happy, so I won't be polite. It's still about Yu Shaosong. I have been investigating for so long, but there are still no breakthrough clues. I am very worried and think of my brothers and sisters for help. "
Gu Qingjue said: "Sir, you know what my wife does. Asking my wife to help is nothing more than a matter that the government cannot solve. But I think there should be one or two people from outside the family in your house, why not let them handle it?" ?”
Speaking of this, Wu Yu almost scratched his hair in annoyance: "It's just that they can't do it. If they could do it, I would still lick my face and tell you this!"
"I know these things are very troublesome, but this is not done by humans. Even if I have great abilities, I still can't handle it!"
My son is sick, and he just went to bed after being noisy all day, woo woo hoo~, there may be some repetitions in one chapter, so I will edit it first and then later. Please forgive me for the special circumstances~
