The most cattle country medical concubine

Chapter 217: A suit within a suit (2)
Hearing this, Zhu Ming kept saying, "No need!" Afraid that the shouting would be too exaggerated, Zhu Ming lowered his volume and said, "Lao Qi is younger than you, so I want to call you brother."

The corners of Zhu Li's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a smile: "Yes, but, there are already several children in Lao Qi's mansion, and I just got married and had children here."

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Zhu Ming's face again: "You guarded the frontier and protected the country for the people, so you delayed the major events in life."

It is said that in this imperial court, apart from Zhu Li, there is no other relatives and relatives of the emperor who can really lead troops to fight. Otherwise, Zhu Li would not need such a person to guard the frontier all the time.

That is to say, how can the court not be on guard against the Li Wang who monopolizes military power?
Zhu Ming said about this generation of the seventh child: "Originally, the emperor hoped to find someone to help you, and let you come back to spread the branches and leaves for the Duke Huguo's mansion. This is what the emperor promised your father back then, but it has never been done. , the emperor felt guilty. Finally, years ago, the fifth princess chose a military officer to marry. The emperor wanted to promote this son-in-law to serve you and share the burden for you. Now, only half a year has passed. Funeral report to the emperor I dare not post it to the world, after all, Qiye and I are still a mystery as to how our fifth younger sister got there."

Li Min could feel her husband looking at her from the corner of his eye: When did she start to be promoted from Doctor Li who treats people to a detective who solves crimes?

It can only be said that the people in the palace now like to throw hot potatoes into her hands.How could she understand such a thing as a forensic doctor, a professional fellow.

"His Royal Highness." Zhu Li received her gaze back, and said to Zhu Ming, "Zhuo Jing has treated people, but he has only seen living people."

Zhu Ming laughed twice, patting his thigh with his palm, choking on saliva in his throat, he only knew that what Zhu Li said was true.

However, casually saying that the fifth princess died suddenly, no one in the palace would accept it.

Zhu Ming sent a message to the couple in a low voice: "Ma Dekang, the general of the right wing, and his son, Ma Yusheng, the son-in-law of the fifth sister of the Palace, are now being detained in Dali Temple."

The duty of Dali Temple is originally to review, that is to say, for major cases, it can only be executed after the review of the trial by the Ministry of Criminal Justice and the review of Dali Temple, which is equivalent to the highest court in the country.However, if it is a more advanced case, it will be tried by the three divisions.That is to say, the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate form the Three Law Departments to jointly hear major cases.For those that need to be involved by various ministries, they will contact the ministers and general political history of each ministry for a round review.Except for the third division, Jin Yiwei will participate in the case that the emperor personally explained.

It sounds very complicated, and officialdom is a very complicated thing.But Li Min could hear two things from it.One is that the emperor and empress dowagers cherish the fifth princess and attach great importance to the case of the sudden death of the fifth princess, so they bypassed the Ministry of punishment and directly let Dali Temple arrest her.You must know that the Dali Temple in the Ming Dynasty, after the development of the past dynasties, is only responsible for review, and no prisons are set up to detain prisoners.This is one of them, maybe the emperor is also trying to avoid suspicion, not wanting people to think that his royal family likes to bully the people.Isn't your son in charge of the Criminal Department?
Second, the son-in-law of the fifth princess is the son-in-law who was recruited into the royal family. If the suspicion of the wrecked fifth princess is really involved, in fact, this matter is not under the control of Dali Temple, and it can also be decided by the clan mansion.Now, Lord Wanli insists on getting people to Dali Temple, it seems that apart from showing justice, he wants to shock the world.

How can the emperor's daughter be married off casually and killed by others?

To sum up, this is not the first time that the emperor's daughter has been killed.It's just that the accumulation to the fifth princess finally made the Queen Mother and Lord Wanli break out.

When Zhu Ming talked about his sisters who died, his heart was full of bitter tears.Of the nine princesses, five have already died, and almost half of them have been removed.Moreover, among the five princesses who died, besides the fifth princess, there were two more who died after they got married.

It can be said that if the palace wants to kill children, most of the attacks on children are on the prince. As for the princess, everyone knows that the princess is a woman and will not compete for the throne. Instead, they all turn a blind eye and close their eyes. let go.The only one who died in infancy was the princess.Since the eldest princess died, nothing has changed in the palace, and everyone knows that the death of a princess is useless.

The dead princesses include the eldest princess, the second princess, the third princess, the fifth princess, and the sixth princess.Because the fifth princess is loved by the queen mother, she is slower than the sixth princess to marry.The second and sixth princesses all died after they got married. The third princess accidentally fell off the horse while riding a horse and hurt her head, and then died after half a month.Neither the second princess nor the sixth princess died suddenly.However, the death is also quite miserable.The second princess died of weakness after giving birth.The sixth princess died in childbirth.They all died to have children.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the saying that when a woman gave birth to a child in ancient times, half of her life lay in the coffin.Just look at how high the maternal mortality rate is.

Now Zhu Li is listening to the prince accidentally mentioning these sad things.Originally, he didn't feel anything about having a baby, but suddenly he was startled, and slightly frightened.

Zhu Ming just watched his frown suddenly frowned, but didn't expect what he was thinking in his heart. He was afraid that what he just said was inappropriate, so he stopped talking and took a sip of tea.

In other words, they waited for Qiye to walk in these few steps, and it was almost half a stick of incense.

The concubine felt that the dishes on the table had to be removed from the oven and redone after waiting like this, so she had to stand up herself and go out to greet Qiye instead of the prince.

When I arrived in the yard, I saw the two masters in a hurry. They may have arrived on horseback.The princess hurriedly asked people to get water first and asked them to clean it up.Master Qi, like Master Shi, was afraid of Zhu Li, so he hurried to the next door to wash his face, and Qi Ye, who was obsessed with cleanliness, borrowed a set of clothes from the princess to change into.Following that, the two of them walked back and forth into the house respectfully.

"I have seen the prince, I have seen the king of Li."

"No gift, no gift."

After greeting each other, they sat down respectively.

The Crown Princess came in and greeted: "His Royal Highness, it's almost time for dinner, is it time to invite Qi Ye, Shi Ye, Li Wang, Li Wang Concubine to take their seats?"

Shi Ye didn't expect that there was going to be a banquet at his house, he only knew that Zhu Ji said that Qi Ye was coming to the Crown Prince's womb, but in the end, he stood up and said repeatedly, "I've already eaten."

In a word, everyone is quiet.

Zhu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a bit of helplessness towards the old ten.Qi Ye was afraid that he would be misunderstood as the one who brought the two hundred and five by himself, so he covered his forehead with his sleeves and hid himself from the old ten.

The concubine is good at rounding things up. After a moment of surprise, she smiled and said to Master Shi, "Since that's the case, refreshments have been set up in the yard, and you can watch the moon and lanterns. Why don't Master Ten sit in the gazebo first?"

Master Shi couldn't help touching his chest with his fingers, and nodded, but the corner of his eyes glanced at Li Min.
