Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

"What?! Really? I%￥&*....."

Jiang Shangxian was about to curse in Chinese, but she had to take emergency shelter at the last moment - she bit the tip of her tongue, which hurt so much that saliva came out of the corners of her eyes, and she covered her mouth with her hands and whimpered.

"What are you doing? Let me see if there's any bleeding."

Seeing her jumping up and down, Cui Bianxu became anxious and grabbed her wrist... and lifted her up. Jiang Shangxian was so frightened that she forgot the pain and resistance. She opened her mouth in disbelief and looked at the two arms touching each other. Is this height discrimination in another sense?

"There's bleeding. I have some excellent hemostatic powder. Just wait..." Cui Bianxu put his face close to her mouth and found that although the wound was not visible, the bright red flowing blood was very conspicuous. He looked at it very carefully, then let go of her hand and walked out with big strides.

This sudden up and down was a bit too violent. When Jiang Shangxian landed, his legs softened and his waist slipped. He couldn't help but cry out in pain: "Oh my god, my waist is hurt~"

"Why are you so careless? Where is it this time?" Cui Bianxu turned around and took two steps back to check again when he heard the noise. He had a headache. This Miss Jiang was fine in other aspects except her physique. She had problems twice in such a short time.

Jiang Shangxian rejected his overflowing kindness, supported himself on the table and slowly slid down to sit down and rub his face. Feeling that it shouldn't be a big problem, he grumbled to Cui Bianxu in frustration, "Master Cui, I'm a human, not a cat! You can't treat me like that!"

It's okay to just pick her up, but couldn't he just put her down properly? How could he just let go mid-air? This is really too much!

Besides, what kind of hemostatic powder would you use if you bite your tongue? Isn't that a medicine for external injuries?

"Cough cough."

Cui Bianxu, who was being accused by the young lady with her round eyes, felt his palms getting hot, itchy and numb. He put his hands to his lips uncomfortably to cover it up, feeling that the touch was better than that of his cat. The cat was very naughty when it was picked up, twisting and turning to make himself into a cat strip. But the young lady Jiang was well-behaved and didn't move at all.

Hmm, this smell, Miss Jiang is really special, like the incense with the flavor of pepper? Hmm, it also has a hint of sugar and garlic.

(Garlic has a history of over 5000 years, and was brought back by Zhang Qian at great risk!)

However, this was indeed his first time, and he had no experience. He promised that this would not happen again next time. "How about asking a doctor to take a look?"

Jiang Shangxian quickly waved his hands. Regardless of the era, seeing a doctor always cost money. Moreover, she didn't need to see a doctor at all. By the time the doctor came, her tongue would probably have healed. It was better not to spend unnecessary money. "It's just a tongue bite. It will heal in a moment. It will only hurt for two days at most. Cui Shaoqing, there's no need to be so sad."

The most important thing is: "Is what Cui Shaoqing said just now true?"

Seeing this, Cui Bianxu also sat down, poured a cup of warm water and pushed it in front of her, indicating that she should rinse her mouth. "As for your majesty, the verdict submitted by the Dali Temple should be issued within half a month at most."

"Thank you." Jiang Shangxian didn't know what to say. She had encountered so many deaths that she was not afraid anymore. It was just that this was the first time she had to face the national law to take a life, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

Not to mention in the Tang Dynasty, even in modern times, she would not have the opportunity to meet any extremely heinous death row prisoners.

But Li Zhong was too bold. Not only did he cheat on his own father, but in order to occupy his stepmother for a long time, he designed such a suicidal drama - while his father was away, he asked his personal servant to dress up in women's clothes and pretend to be a palace maid to take his stepmother away.

The key to this idea is to use the emperor's identity to prevent others from investigating, so that he can keep his beauty in the mansion forever. After his father, uncle and aunt die, he will replace all the servants in the mansion, and then find a way to get Zhao an identity and secretly marry her home.

There is no need to say much about how shitty the plan was. The biggest flaw was that Cui Bianxu, the troublemaker, did not follow the usual path and played it straight.

Fortunately, Jiang Shangxian didn't have to empathize with the lunatic on such matters. According to Li Zhong's train of thought, even if his plan was really successful this time, because of Li Shimin, no one would continue to investigate, and he might commit other crimes.

For example, my father and uncle were both very healthy and had lived for a long time, so I used my clever brain to think of a way to personally send them off, or some other funeral plans that would make the whole place laugh out loud...

If people's brain circuits could be connected, then everyone would be like neighbors.

"Li Zhong initially tried to deny such shameless behavior. It's ridiculous. His personal servants had already confessed everything."

Guo Huai was much more experienced in criminal justice than him, especially that day, when she was chatting with Jiang Shangxian, she said that on the seventh day of the seventh month, women made wishes to the Weaver Girl and prayed for a long and lasting relationship with their loved ones. He then suspected Li Zhong, and he did not hide anything and directly told Guo Huai his speculation.

As an experienced criminal justice officer, Guo Huai had seen many melodramatic incidents. After thinking about Cui Bianxu's idea for a moment, he felt that it was very likely.

During the interrogation, he would torture the person without saying a word, and would not let him go after the torture was over. He would just hang him there and ask him questions. If the person answered slowly, he would stop asking questions and just gag him and put him aside to continue torturing him. He would then drag another person in and repeat the torture, questioning, and torture.

After such a process, the person being questioned was under more pressure than the person being tortured. Not to mention asking about matters related to the case, even Li Xingquan was old and constipated, and only defecated once every six or seven days. The servants all rushed to defecate.

On the other hand, this is enough to show how bad the Li family's family rules are. If a servant from the Cui family were to come, he would definitely not be able to get a single word out of them.

Cui Bianxu watched her drink the cup of warm water used for rinsing her mouth, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he poured her another cup of tea.

"This man is so irresponsible. It's a waste of the Zhao family's risk to do such a thing with him." Jiang Shangxian was filled with righteous indignation. Although Zhao family was not a good person, Li Zhong was too disgusting. What kind of person is this? Taiwanese sausages grew on his body. If Zhao family didn't want to, could they force him?!

Speaking of Zhao, Cui Bianxu let out a breath, his lips tightening slightly. "The drug Zhao was given was too strange. The doctors at the Imperial Medical Bureau are helpless. Now there are less than six days left. If it's really as Ning Yuye said, she'll be dead before the verdict is handed down."

Although the sentence he submitted for Zhao was 100 lashes, Zhao would still die after the execution, but dying under the sentence was always different.

Jiang Shangxian couldn't even come up with any lies about this. In modern society, she had seen things like sleeping pills in the news and gossip public accounts. They were used by criminals to target women.

"Hasn't Zhao's maid been found yet? Didn't they say that Zhao herself took out the drug? If we find that maid, maybe we can get some information from her."
