Cao Shen.

The life and death friend of Han Emperor Liu Bang.

When Jiang Chen heard this name, he finally became interested and asked, "Do you have any skills?"

No wonder this person is so afraid of Qin Lu just mentioned.

According to historical records, Cao Shen was good at law. At that time, Liu Bang was the pavilion chief of Qinpei County. He was ordered to escort the refugees to Xianyang for inspection. They were gathered together to escort them to the foot of the North Great Wall. They passed through Mang Mountain. When it rained, they were about to overdue their labor service, and many people escaped from labor service. If the Qin law is overdue, no matter the superior or the subordinate, the person who was escorted will be held accountable first. Either advance or retreat would lead to death, so Liu Bang let the remaining young men go and decided to raise the flag to start a rebellion. At that time, Cao Shen, who was serving as the magistrate of Peixian County, took advantage of the loopholes in Qin's laws to help his family escape guilt and hid Liu Bang.

This shows that he is a judicial talent.

I'm afraid it's because he knows the laws of Qin very well and knows how serious the consequences of what he just did will be, so he was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly.

Cao Shen was only in his twenties at this time, and he was still far from being as wise as he would become in the future. Therefore, when Jiang Chen asked him, he answered in a polite manner like a normal person, "When I was young, I was fortunate to be taught by several gentlemen, and I learned to read and judge." He also knows some laws."

"Law?" Fusu was slightly surprised. "Do you know how the incident just now should be handled according to the laws of Qin?"

Cold sweat suddenly fell from Cao Shen's forehead, and he said with difficulty, "If he didn't hurt anyone, he would be punished with thirty floggings. If he hurt anyone, he should at least be sentenced to imprisonment with a tattoo."

If you hit someone and kill someone, you have to die to apologize.

The six countries all laughed at the Qin people, not knowing how ugly they were without noses. This statement is not groundless. The laws of the Qin State are strict, and any disobedience will be punished.

Cao Cen was familiar with Qin's method, so he was extremely afraid.

"Hu Hai, is that so?"

Jiang Chen nodded.

"Okay. Cao Shen, from now on, if you follow me, you will be exempted from whipping. As for your mother, you can also take her to Xianyang." My father respected Shang Jun Han Fei. Shang Yang's methods and Han Fei's techniques were all his. Strictly required to study. As a subordinate, Cao Shen certainly had more direct feelings about Qin Fa.

I brought Cao Shen with me, hoping that I could learn from him.

"..."

Seeing that he didn't respond, Fusu asked patiently, "What? Is there any difficulty?"

Cao Shen knelt down and kowtowed several times, "Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"

If Young Master Da Qin wants him to take away his merits, then there is a chance of survival.

Fusu saw Xu Fu next to him, "Mr. Xu." He thought of the corpse and several people, "In that case, please come with me. Whatever you see next, be sure to keep it a secret, otherwise, you will be killed without mercy."

Jiang Chen felt that things were getting more and more interesting when the rumored gentle and kind-hearted young master Fusu could say the words "Kill without mercy".

Seeing Hu Hai following, Fusu sighed secretly and stopped stopping him.

The crime scene has been surrounded by guards wearing black armor. Even if someone wanted to peek in, they were driven away by the patrol outside.

Zulong will die next year.

What a plausible prophecy.

When several people saw the flickering writings on the wall, they couldn't help but ask themselves, isn't this really the power of the gods?

Jiang Chen looked along the light and shadow and saw the jade color on the sleeves of the corpse, but said nothing.

Cao Shen looked around and saw small and dazzling lights under the eaves of the trading company across the road. He walked to the body, thought for a moment, turned up his sleeves, and slightly covered the broken jade mirror next to him.

The writing on the wall is minus one.

Everyone was shocked.

Cao Cen looked at the gorgeous hotel opposite this dilapidated alley, put down his sleeves again, and the writing on the wall was clearly visible again.

Fusu was surprised and said, "Cao Shen, this is..."

Cao Shen said, "The murderer just used a little trick. When the villain was young, he was naughty with his friends in the village and broke the bronze mirror. The sunlight would be reflected between the mirrors, and pictures from other places could be cast down. In a fixed place.”

Fusu:......

"Is this happening?"

"It's just country childishness, nothing to mention."

Cao Shen moved the body away and kicked some of the jade lenses on the ground, and the words on the wall became scattered light and shadow.

Fusu: "Looking at this debris, there are no glyphs. How could it be like this?"

"Because the real words are not here." Cao Shen said, following the light, he walked to the opposite eaves and took a closer look.

Jiang Chen leaned against the wall and couldn't help but yawned.

"It should be here." He suddenly pointed at the crack in the eaves and said firmly.

"Young Master is looking for a wooden ladder, look for it here."

Fusu responded, Meng Yi said it was not necessary at all, so he stepped back a little further, raised his breath and jumped up, hanging his single left hand on the edge of the eaves, while his right hand searched between the cracks in the wood. Not found.

Cao Shen: "I'll come."

Meng Yi thought for a while, jumped down, lifted Cao Shen's collar with one hand, and the two of them hung in the air.

Fu Su: "Shang Qing, please be careful."

Cao Shen: ...shocked.

"Thank you, sir."

He looked at the dazzling light reflected from the bronze mirror on the ground in the distance, reached out and touched it under the wooden eaves. After a while, he nodded and replied, "I got it."

Meng Yi let go and the two landed safely.

Cao Shen took out a piece of water-colored jade and a small piece of extremely clear round mirror.

"This is……"

"That's the 'paper' that the writing is really written on." Cao Shen approached the alley and tried the angle with a jade stone and a mirror, and the writing on the wall faintly emerged.

Fusu looked at the words on the wall, "Surprisingly..."

"The things in this world are indeed mysterious."

Xu Fu closed his wide sleeves and walked over with a blackened silver needle in his exposed hand, saying, "This person also has some knowledge of the art of elixirs."

"The thing in the ears of the corpse is called Yuan Shui. This thing is obtained by pouring cinnabar into a bamboo tube and calcining it. If the Yuan Shui is not refined, it is poisonous, but it has a special effect and can maintain the appearance of the body for many years. Rot. This is why Mr. Gongshu's corpse looks like a living person. When Yuan Shui meets silver, it turns black."

He looked at the silver needle with a black patch on it, which was very meaningful.

All these things, when combined, are they just for the purpose of discrediting Fusu and discrediting Yingzheng? Fusu gritted his teeth and said, "What a vicious strategy! He spared no effort to slander his father!"

When Jiang Chen heard this, he still had no expression. Yuanshui, or mercury, does have some antiseptic properties. When ancient emperors died, they would often pour mercury into the brains of the burial objects, make holes in the corpses, and smear mercury powder all over their bodies, so that the corpses would retain their appearance.

At this time, elixirs often used mercury and lead powder as the main raw materials to seek longevity, but this was somewhat unreasonable. From a pharmacological point of view, it is true that stones and metals are effective when used slightly as medicine, but it is not enough. If it is used mainly, it may be a disaster.

Yuanshui has always been controlled by the royal family. It is carried to the tomb with the emperor's body or used as medicinal stones. If you are not familiar with it, you will never be able to get it. This is not as simple as Xu Fu's words.

Xu Fu.

Jiang Chen stood up straight, "So, who is it?"

Although he didn't mention his name, Xu Fu knew that this was meant for him.

Xu Fu answered honestly, "Lu Sheng."

"Lu Sheng?" everyone repeated.

Jiang Chen lowered his eyes slightly. There are different opinions about Lu Sheng, who was the instigator of Yingzheng's burning of books and entrapment of Confucian scholars.

As for Hu Hai's memory, this person was a doctor under Kong Kun, who was proficient in Confucianism, and was even more pedantic and rigid than the Kong family. He was usually a mediocre person, just like Kong Yu, who was extremely resistant to the system of prefectures and counties, and was quite dissatisfied with the harshness of Qin's laws. It seems that he is indeed a great scholar under Confucian education. There are no other suspicious things.

Fusu knew the meaning of Confucianism and had met Lu Sheng several times.

The few words the two said to each other were all based on Confucian classics. Fusu never thought that such a person would have problems.

He frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Xu, Fusu has talked with Lu Sheng several times. This man is honest and honest, and he does not seem to be a treacherous person."

Compared to Lu Sheng, he was somewhat uncertain about Xu Fu's credibility.

Hearing these words that sounded like questioning, Xu Fu was a little angry, "Now that I have made it clear today, Pindao is not afraid of a few jokes. Lu Sheng and Pindao are from the same school. Lu Sheng returned home midway and disappeared afterwards. Master ordered me Pindao went out to look for him many times. He was in the west and came all the way to the west. Then he happened to meet His Majesty the Emperor and came to the palace at his invitation a few years ago. Pindao wanted to check on this junior disciple who had abandoned his family. What is the purpose of escaping from Xianyang... Looking at it today, it is nothing more than an old grudge against your majesty. I, Xu Fu, have a sincere heart for your majesty, and it is unimaginable for me to be questioned like this!"

Fusu was stunned by him and was speechless for a moment.

Jiang Chen said coldly, "Your sincerity may have ulterior motives, you know it in your heart. Your words and deeds are consistent..."

Xu Fu's face turned ugly, "What do you mean, Young Master? I am loyal to Your Majesty, and the sun and the moon can tell you."

An unexplainable smile appeared on Jiang Chen's lips. "oh."

It was obviously a response, but it made the person being responded to feel even more embarrassed.

Call it trust, but it's more embarrassing than disbelief.

Fusu changed the topic to avoid further quarrel and causing embarrassment, "Where is Lu Sheng now?"

Meng Yi thought for a while and said, "According to the time, I followed Kong Shaofu in revising the Five Classics of Confucianism in Chinese studies." He then asked, "Should we arrest this person for interrogation?"

"...No need." Fusu looked at Xu Fu and paused, "No need for the time being."

He looked around and saw Jiang Chen, "Hu Hai, back to the palace."

Jiang Chen put down the white cloth covering the body, took two steps back, and stood aside.

Fusu came closer and saw the body with yesterday's face turned into white cloth. He couldn't help but sigh softly and told the guards beside him, "Take it outside the city and bury it."

People have passed away...what can happen to the past.

Even though Gong Shufu once wanted to regain the state of Lu and harmed the state of Qin, he is now dead after all.

After a person dies, his glory and mistakes will all disappear.

How can we compare with the dead and the living?

After the prince of the Qin Palace reaches the age of twelve, he can follow a foreign teacher to deal with practical matters, and no longer has to just stick to Xiyuan Chinese Studies.

Hu Hai is old enough.

It's just that his situation is quite special. Zhao Gao was an internal servant of Ying Zheng. Although he held the post of Zhongche Ling, he was not enough to become the prince's tutor. Therefore, Hu Hai's nominal teacher was Prime Minister Li Si, but his real teacher was Zhao Gao.

Li Si, Zhao Gao and others are not in the imperial city today, and the internal master of Chinese studies has not yet had time to explain that the eighteenth son has passed the age of twelve.

Counting the time, His Majesty will be back in ten days.

The author has something to say: Simply put, the key is to find a good angle

The alley is in the south and the trading company is in the north.

At noon, the sunlight l shines into the eaves opposite the alley entrance. A convex mirror is placed behind the jade with reverse characters. The reflected light l1 is amplified and reflected at a certain angle to the dark place in the alley opposite. The character Zhengguang appears, which is a negative picture.

The midday sun shines on the pile of broken mirrors and jade at the entrance of the alley, and the messy reflections make the dark places in the alley brighter, covering up the shadows of the light.

When the guards carry the body, they will pass by the pile of broken mirrors, which blocks the sunlight l, the reflected light l2 disappears, and the alley becomes dark again.

The word l1 comes out

For Jiang Chen, who has studied light carefully, seeing through it is child's play at a glance

The fact is that the author set up the theory blindly. To achieve the effect requires the right time, place and careful design

I don't know if I have explained it clearly, hahahahahahahahahaha
