SWNOVELS
Chapter 307
The wheels rolled and walked, meandering towards the sunset.
The carriage, which had been under the sun all day, was filled with the smell of sunlight. Sun Shaozong rested on Ruan Rong's thigh, placed his hand on Xiangling's lower abdomen, and felt the joyful rhythm of life. His whole person felt lazy as if he were about to melt away.
Master.
Ruan Rong tore apart and reorganized Sun Shaozong's bun while curiously inquiring, "Have there been any results from that recent curse case?
Since she became pregnant with her son last year, her interest in solving cases has greatly diminished. When asked about the curse case, she was more interested in the affairs of gods and ghosts than curious about the progress of the case.
What can the outcome be?
Sun Shaozong didn't even bother to lift his eyelids and muttered, "Currently, Cheng Rixing, Lin Delu, and others have advised me to just close the case. Anyway, the Chen family has already recognized it.
He originally intended to start with another curse case and conduct a joint investigation.
Unexpectedly, yesterday afternoon, he finally took the time to inquire with Jiang Yuhan and found out that the daughter-in-law of the concubine had escorted the body back to their hometown in the south for burial three days ago.
How could this person be investigated together when the building was empty?
In addition, the Chen family's case appeared to have solid evidence and facts on the surface. The murderer has already gone crazy and wouldnt actively argue about anything. Therefore, Lin Delu and others advised Sun Shaozong to simply close the case.
To be honest, not every case by Sun Shaozong must be brought to light; after all, even in the modern era of advanced technology, murder cases must be solved was just a slogan, not a 100% fact.
But he always felt that this case might not stop
Theyre fighting, theyre fighting!
Soldiers are fighting on their own.
Sun Shaozong was pondering the case when he heard a commotion outside.
Ruan Rong curiously opened a gap in the curtains and saw many people bustling around the city gate not far ahead.
As soon as the road ahead was blocked, the driver controlled the carriage and slowly stopped by the roadside. The male servants, who were riding horses to guard the two sides, immediately stepped out of the crowd and rushed to the front to inquire about the situation.
Not long after, someone replied, "Second Master, it was the officers and soldiers guarding the city who had a conflict with the people of the Shenji Camp. They didn't fight but pushed each other at the city gate.
It was indeed related to Shenji Camp again.
As soon as Sun Shaozong heard that there was a fight, as a soldier, he estimated that it couldnt be separated from the Shenji Camp. In the past month or so, there has been a conflict between Shenji Camp and the other three major camps, which has caused Minister Han a lot of trouble.
After investigation, naturally, its root cause was closely related to the series of reforms promoted by Emperor Guangde.
Following the changes in military ranks and titles last autumn, Emperor Guangde recently took a sudden initiative to elevate the position of the Shenji Camp in the Capital's four battalions. It was said that it would at least be on par with the Huben Camp and might even leap to become the leader of the Forbidden Army.
As soon as the news spread, the Huben Camp, Patrol Camp, and Urban Defense Camp all exploded.
It should be noted that these days, firearms were not considered a major force due to their inconvenience in use, and their range and accuracy were inferior to those of bows and crossbows. It was because of the power of artillery that the Shenji Battalion could barely form a separate army, and it has always been the bottom of the four battalions.
Who would be convinced that the goods of gathering chicken feathers and dusters now should be superior to the real swords and guns of the fighting men?
The high-ranking leaders have written against it, and the arrogant soldiers and generals below have even regarded Shenji Camp as a thorn in their side, seizing the opportunity to make things difficult.
How could Shenji Camp weaken its momentum at this moment when everyone was about to turn around?
So conflicts of all sizes and forms arose, one after another.
He knew that the fight had not yet started, so Sun Shaozong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If it were a fight that had already been fought, he would not be able to come forward.
As for now...
Announce my name; let them roll aside and not make trouble; don't delay the people's entry and exit.
Noted.
The servant agreed and immediately urged the horse to squeeze into the entrance of the city. He saw dozens of tall, short, fat, and thin soldiers in the doorway, all pulling their chests and necks, saying nonsense such as Come on, try and fight me,What if I really launch an attack, and Come on, why dont you fight me again.
Pa~
The servant shook his horsewhip in the wind and roared at the top of his throat, "Lord Sun of the Central Judicial Office has an order. He has instructed you and others to immediately move out of the way, so as not to delay the entry and exit of the people.
There was a sudden silence in the doorway.
Immediately, the city gate official spoke proudly and said, "Do you hear me? Lord Sun asked you to quickly get out of here.
The leader of the Shenji Camp was also unwilling to be outdone, and he choked his neck and shouted, "What are you so proud of? Lord Sun clearly asked us to move away together.
Although they were still fighting against each other, no one dared to disobey Sun Shaozong's intentions. After all, unlike ordinary fifth-grade civil servants, Sun Shaozong not only had connections in the upper echelons of the military but was also renowned for his bravery in the Capital.
Especially last time at the Jinmen Mansion, Sun Shaozong was known for his ability to defeat hundreds of enemies and defeat a third-grade official of the Imperial Court. He was even more famous in the military, so naturally, no one dared to provoke him casually.
Of course, this was also due to the conflict between the Shenji Camp and the city defense camp. If there were to be a conflict with the patrol camp, the people of the Shenji Camp might not be convinced because of his Big Brother.
Not to mention the two military leaders, how could they request to meet Sun Shaozong to apologize, and how could they be rejected without hesitation by the male servant?
After the city gate order was restored, Sun Shaozong returned to the mansion unobstructed all the way. He settled Xiangling and Ruan Rong first and then went to search for his Big Brother to gossip about.
After briefly mentioning the commotion at the city gate, Sun Shaozong helplessly said, "Brother, how long will this matter continue to stir up? It's going to cause a few lives; it's not a joke.
At present, only a few injuries have been caused, but if there was a real risk of causing human life, the Criminal Department might also be implicated. There was no other way; no one could let the Central Judicial Office manage it leniently.
This was not like ordinary criminal proceedings, where one was properly sandwiched between the two ends.
I guess it's almost settled.
He then heard Sun Shaozu saying, "When I went to the Prince's Residence earlier, Prince Zhongshun leaked some information, saying that the Shenji Camp was going to be brought to Jinmen Mansion for reorganization and that some new firearms would need to be replaced in batches.
Speaking of this, he carefully glanced outside the door and confirmed that there was no one around. Then he lowered his voice and said, "I also heard that these new firearms were obtained from Prince Yizhong. It took a lot of effort to imitate more than a hundred.
Tch!
It was estimated that the Guangde Emperor picked up a stroke of luck during the hot air balloon incident.
Engaging in business, upgrading technology, developing firearms...
The actions of Prince Yizhong were like those of the protagonist of the ordinary traveler.
Unfortunately, he learned the main character's series of skills and tricks but didnt have the luck of the Dragon. In the end, he made a fool of himself and even gave a super big gift package to Emperor Guangde.
He didnt know what technological level the new type of firearm was at, but regardless of its level, it would take at least two to three years before it could be officially put into use on the battlefield.
At that time, they could catch up with Wang Ziteng's Southeast War
By the way
As he was daydreaming, his Big Brother suddenly changed his tone and said, "I heard from Siqi that the little girl from the Shi family also looks excellent. Instead of taking advantage of the little forgetful bastard from the Wei family, how about we take action first?
As he spoke, he frowned and winked at Sun Shaozong, the meaning being self-evident.
Sun Shaozong's face suddenly collapsed. Shi Xiangyun's appearance and background were naturally not to be chosen. It was said that she was lively and cheerful, but the problem was that she was younger than Lin Daiyu, and she was not even thirteen years old at the moment!
Such a little girl, it was really
What?
Marry home first, raise for two years, eat, live, and peel? contemporary romance
Is he joking?
It was already on the tip of his tongue; how could Sun Shaozong still hold back?
He was not the kind of person with a strong willpower, who could be strict with himself without legal constraints!
So it was best not to trouble himself.
However, as soon as Sun Shaozong was about to plead, he heard footsteps outside. Immediately after, Zhao Zhongji reported that three young nephews had something to ask for.
