Chapter 469: June Snow Has a Wrongful Feeling

Zhang Yuan stood in front of Sheng Zhixing's door all night.

It was not until the first ray of morning light shone on him that he realized it was already daybreak.

With a "creak", the courtyard door was opened from the inside. Sheng Zhixing was stunned for a moment when he saw Zhang Yuan standing outside.

"Why are you standing outside without knocking?"

"Master, I figured it out."

Zhang Yuan clenched his fists and said, "I want to reopen the investigation into the two cases of treason and embezzlement of military pay at the Zhaoping Marquis' Mansion!"

"Please give me some advice, Master!"

Sheng Zhixing smiled slightly: "Come in and have breakfast."

*

Half a month passed.

It was midsummer and the capital city of Dasheng was very hot.

Linlang Street in the capital.

Under the scorching sun, Sheng Zhixing's herbal tea business is very hot, with customers coming to buy herbal tea in an endless stream.

They gathered in front of Sheng Zhixing's tea stall, chatting while waiting in line.

"It's so hot today, who can shoot down the sun?"

"Rich people have ice cubes to cool off, but ordinary people like us can only buy some herbal tea to drink."

Just as everyone was waiting for herbal tea and complaining about the hot weather, Zhang Yuan, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, came with his detectives. He showed the people around the tea stall a portrait of a young man and said, "Fellow villagers, have you seen this man?"

Zhang Yuan solved two major cases at a young age and became the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. He was also kind to people. At the beginning, the old tea-selling man told stories about the doubts of several unjust cases in Dali Temple and his analysis was very logical, but the people in Dali Temple not only did not accept his opinions, but also said that the old man was talking nonsense to attract attention and wanted to drive him away.

Only Zhang Yuan humbly sought advice, and finally overturned the case based on what the old tea seller said.

The people believed that Zhang Yuan was an official who could truly listen to people like them, the lower class. They all cooperated with Zhang Yuan and came to see what the man in the portrait looked like.

"Why did Lord Zhang personally bring the police to arrest people?"

"I've never seen this person before. What crime did he commit?"

Zhang Yuan held up the portrait and said, "This man is a vicious charlatan who has swindled people out of a total of 10,000 taels of silver. Someone provided a clue that he is hiding in the Linlang Street area."

"If you have any clues, please provide them to me! I will reward you handsomely!"

Passers-by at the tea stall shook their heads after seeing the portrait, saying they had never seen it.

"Okay, fellow villagers, please help me keep an eye out."

"I'll take some people to look ahead."

Zhang Yuan turned his head and said to Sheng Zhixing, "Uncle Wang, you often set up a stall in this area, so you should pay more attention to it for me!"

"okay!"

Sheng Zhixing nodded happily.

The two exchanged glances.

Zhang Yuan led his men further into Linlang Street.

"Master Zhang is personally leading the police in such a hot day. Come and arrest people. How dedicated!"

"He deserves to be the Shaoqing of Dali Temple at such a young age!"

Just as the diners continued to complain about the hot weather, small pieces of white "catkins" suddenly fell from the sky.

These "catkins" fell on people's heads, faces and bodies, and then melted into water.

The cool touch of the catkins made the people exclaim in surprise.

"Oh my god, this isn't catkins! This looks like snowflakes!"

People on the street looked up and stretched out their hands to catch the snowflakes falling from the sky. The crystal snowflakes fell on them and quickly melted.

After confirming again and again that it was really snowing, the people started talking about it!

"It's snowing in June! This is an injustice!"

"This is exactly the same plot as the classic play "The Injustice of Dou E" performed at the He Family Theater!"

The plays at He Lin Theater are now very popular throughout Dasheng. Drama troupes from all over Dasheng buy scripts from He Lin's theater and take them back to rehearse and perform. "The Injustice of Dou E" is the most popular one, because it is a must-perform piece for He Lin's troupe's free charity performances.

"But what unjust cases have occurred in Beijing recently?"

"No, with the guidance of the detective Lord Zhang, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, and the old man Wang who sells tea, how could there be an unjust case?"

Sheng Zhixing sold tea on the streets of Beijing under the pseudonym Lao Wang, and everyone called him Old Man Wang.

Hearing people's discussions, Sheng Zhixing remained silent, but just used a bamboo tube to serve herbal tea to everyone.

This snow was certainly not a coincidence, but Jiang Lili, who was now in the snowfield, sent him a red envelope for snowfall.

The Linlang Street where he chose to set up his stall today is where the former site of Marquis Zhaoping’s Mansion is located.

From his herbal tea stall, he could see the towering buildings in the Zhaoping Marquis Mansion from afar.

After clicking on the snowfall red envelope, Sheng Zhixing saw snow falling from the sky. He sent a message to Su Rui: [Su Rui, you can release Liu Xi from the Imperial Astronomical Observatory.]

[@苏锐 (serious archaeologists do not rob tombs): Got it! ]

After Sheng Zhixing sent the message, his face showed a surprised expression, just like everyone else.

He complained, "It's so hot, why is it snowing? I'm an old man, and I'm trying hard to make some extra money selling herbal tea!"

The people gathered around the tea stall were surprised and confused.

Ancient people were almost all superstitious. Abnormal celestial phenomena were either auspicious or ominous signs.

"How strange! It's really abnormal to snow in the middle of summer."

"Hey, I remember that in June three years ago, the Marquis of Zhaoping's mansion was confiscated and exiled!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

"Could it be that the Zhaoping Marquis' family was exiled for some reason? Is the heavens speaking up for him now?"

"Why did it snow three years later? Why didn't it snow in the two years before that?"

At this time, a fisherman in the crowd lowered his voice and said, "I heard from a relative who does business in Lingnan that he went out to sea to fish, and when he stopped at Haizhou Island to rest, he heard a piece of news about the Zhaoping Marquis' Mansion."

When everyone heard this, they pricked up their ears.

"The Xin family's father and son were killed while out at sea. Their bodies were swollen when they were fished out."

The fisherman shook his head with a sad look on his face: "It's pitiful that the three women in the mansion were left to struggle on that deserted island with their eight-year-old child. Now I heard that they are digging stones in the mountains!"

"I'm afraid he won't survive much longer on that deserted island with such poor conditions."

Hearing this sad news, everyone's heart trembled.

"Oh my god, this is too tragic! The Xin family father and son spent their entire lives in military service, but ended up like this! You should know that half of Dasheng was conquered by the Xin family."

"The prince of Zhaoping was once the god of war of Dasheng. If he has any rebellious intentions..."

The person didn't dare to say the rest of the words, but everyone knew it.

If the Xin family had been so invincible in the past, they would have rebelled long ago. They have the strength to do so, but they are still loyal to Dasheng.

Sheng Zhixing saw that the atmosphere was almost brewing, so he interrupted their discussion and said, "Hey, hey, hey, don't talk nonsense in front of me, an old man!"

"I'm just selling herbal tea. I don't want to lose my head!"

The discussion among the crowd gathered around the tea beach quieted down a bit.

But as more and more people heard the news, they rushed over from all directions and gathered in Linlang Street to see the wonder of snow in June.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! This man is crazy!"

Just as everyone came to see the spectacle of snowfall in June, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted!
