Chapter 4 Cao Landing

Eight hundred years ago, the great scholar Dong Tianshu led the world's Confucians to "cast the saint" on the top of Mount Tai. Wensheng Confucius stayed in Ziwei Star Mansion with the honor of a saint. Ziwei Star was renamed the Emperor Wen Star, and abandoned all schools of thought and respected Confucianism and Taoism. The imperial examination was the basic rule of Confucianism and Taoism. As long as you pass the exam, you can open the Wenquyin Mansion in the ancestral orifice between the Emperor Wen Star, and interact with the heavenly beings of the Emperor Wen, and get literary spirit. It is also called "the saint's spirit" and "the priest's spirit".

As you achieve higher achievements in the imperial examinations, the stronger the literary spirit obtained through the sympathy of heaven and man. This literary spirit, unlike martial arts, does not enhance personal strength, but it brings invisible luck. When used, it can transform official power and use it on the battlefield to boost the momentum of the three armies. A general, even a master-level general, is only a hundred people, a thousand people, and a Confucian general born in a Jinshi, is a real "enemy of ten thousand people".

Ten thousand ordinary recruits who were temporarily summoned were just a mess of loose sand under the leadership of the master-level general. The role of personal bravery on the battlefield cannot be said to be useless, but it is useless after all. However, under the leadership of a Confucian general who was powerless and from a Jinshi, he was protected by literary talent and fortune, but he could fight bravely with the most elite northern barbarians without being at a disadvantage.

It is precisely because of this that after the opening of Emperor Wen's Star Mansion and "respecting Confucianism alone", the atmosphere of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty was to emphasize literature over military affairs. Although the northern barbarians and the Miao people in Xiling were strong, they could never threaten the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The magistrate Cao Jie must have been a juren. At this moment, his authority was dispersed and he was silent all over the place. Before he asked, no one dared to speak loudly, even the most stingy woman was no exception.

"Sir!" The captain Zhao Hong, who arrived in advance, stepped forward and worshiped.

Cao Jie looked at him: "What happened?"

Zhao Hong made a respectful gesture of "Please borrow a step to speak", came to the side, talked about the situation, and whispered: "Miss Ning's maid Kui'er died on the bed. When she was found, Ning Yicheng was raped on her on the bed. Her subordinates have found out that the maid Kui'er was strangled to death. In this way, it was Ning Yicheng who committed violence because of rape."

Cao Jieding frowned and said, "How do you explain Ning Yicheng?"

Zhao Hong said: "He naturally refused to admit it, but when asked why he appeared here, he was hesitating, his words were flickering, he was rumoring, and he didn't speak the truth. Obviously, there was a ghost in his heart. What's more, when he was caught, he was still hurriedly putting on his pants. He was not the murderer, but who was?" Although Ning Yicheng shouted for injustice, which prisoner did not shout for injustice? Both of them were there, at least the "suspect" had no choice but to run away.

Cao Jie walked two steps and suddenly said, "Ning Yicheng may have had any bad behavior, but some people saw him doing bad behavior, but no one saw him killing people, or someone killed Kui'er first and put it on the bed. Ning Yicheng didn't know, would he rape her?"

"Although there is such a possibility," Zhao Hong said, "but I have also asked other people around me. At that time, the old servants in the garden gathered together, and they had no time to commit crimes without hiding their masters. Although there was no evidence of being absent from the Ning family, she was a girl and had never practiced martial arts. Kui'er stood there and asked her to pinch her. Who else could be killed except Ning Yicheng?"

Cao Jie must have looked at the girl who was being supported by two old wives. Seeing that she was so scared that she was crying constantly. Not to mention that she didn't have the strength, even if she had the strength, no one believed that she had the courage to kill. His eyes narrowed, and then looked at Zhao Hong, and suddenly said, "Where is Ning Jiang?"

Zhao Hong replied: "It is said that after falling into the lake in the sun, I have not woken up yet. The lady from Ning Mansion is accompanying him, so no one has ever witnessed it."

Cao Jieding sneered and said, "Let's go!" He led the team to the place where the young master of Ningfu lives...

Ning Jiang was lying on the bed, listening to the movement outside, and knew that the magistrate Cao Jie had arrived.

Not only did he arrive, he was walking towards his room.

After being reborn, Ning Jiang naturally knew that Cao Jingding helped Ning Ji fight for his property that should belong to him, and it was not just as simple as being bribed by Ning Ji. Behind Cao Jingding, there was a deeper purpose that even Ning Ji didn't know. Because of that purpose, Cao Jingding decided to make Ning Ji the head of Ning Mansion in Gaosuo County no matter what.

If something went wrong with Ning Ji's son, it would be a problem for Cao Jingding. If he entered the house and found that Ning Jiang had woken up, then no matter whether there was any evidence to prove that Ning Jiang was suspected of murder, Cao Jing would definitely try to implicate him and go to jail first. The rest is nothing more than a problem of being blamed and scolded.

But it is obviously not easy to pretend to be asleep in front of them. The captain Zhao Hong was originally a warrior who practiced internal strength and was well versed in the way of luck. If a person really slept or pretended to be asleep, he would know it as soon as he checked it.

Although Cao Jieding did not understand martial arts, he was a juren who had opened up the Wenquyin Mansion with the ancestral acupoints on his forehead, which was also difficult to deal with.
