Chapter 22: Redress

"Jiyue has been by my side for the longest time, if you don't understand anything in the future, please ask her more. ”

Jiyue originally hung her head in frustration, but when she heard this, she raised her head suddenly, looking stunned.

Shen Ruojiao smiled: "What are you thinking about all day long, you will be a senior in the future, you must have the appearance of a senior, you can't be bullied." ”

"Lady's ......" Jiyue didn't know what to say for a while, her big round eyes were full of tears, bright and bright.

She made such a big mistake, even if the lady didn't want her anymore, she shouldn't have complained.

But the lady is still so good to her.

"Okay, okay, I'll leave the frost to you, you still have to be busy, you can't just cry here. ”

"Yes!" Qi Yue blushed, and finally regained her full vitality.

Rushuang looked at the pair of masters and servants who got along freely, and her cold and hard eyes softened a little.

She didn't become a slave, she originally thought that she would be so confused in this life, and it was her luck to meet Shen Ruojiao.

Shen Ruhao was busy until late at night before coming back.

The case seemed to be progressing rapidly, but Shen Ruhao still sighed and kept it secretive.

Shen Ruojiao smiled and said, "Brother, can't you tell me something?"

Shen Ruhao scratched his ears: "It's not that I can't say it, it's that I'm afraid that I will make you worry if I say it." ”

According to the clues given by Shen Ruojiao, he really found that the female corpse was not Xiao Caiyi, and after the whole city searched, Xiao Caiyi was arrested and brought to justice.

It's just that Xiao Caiyi's confession after pleading guilty involved another big case.

This case is enough to make Bai Zhen angry, and the chaos of the court will be subverted again.

Shen Ruojiao faintly sensed something, which could make her brother so dignified, Xiao Caiyi's case was only afraid of another mystery.

Xiao Caiyi......

Shen Ruojiao passed the name in her mind, and slowly frowned: "Could it be that this Xiao Niangzi is the daughter of Xiao Zuo, the commander of Zuo Chen, County?"

In addition, she couldn't think of any other possibility, so that her brother, who had always been calm and self-controlled, was so dignified, and this matter must be very important.

Shen Ruhao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and chuckled: "I really can't hide anything from you." ”

Just a surname, you can quickly get a glimpse of the truth behind it, Shen Ruojiao has a deep understanding of the situation in the government and the opposition, and her talent in the world, even if she is a big member in the court now, is not as far as her.

Shen Ruhao often thinks that his sister is trapped in the deep palace by Bai Zhen like this, which is Bai Zhen's loss.

As Shen Ruojiao guessed, Xiao Caiyi's original name was Xiao Su, and she was the daughter of Xiao Zuo, the former commander of Zuo County, who had been executed by Ling Chi.

This matter has to start from the time when Xiao Zuo was still the county commander.

Xiao Zuo was honest and honest and enforced the law impartially, but three years ago he was convicted for his words, Xiao Zuo was executed by Ling Chi, and the Xiao family was exiled to the northwest.

At that time, there was an uproar in the Manchu Dynasty, but no one dared to delve into the reasons behind it, just because it was Xu Yong, who was in charge of Xiao Zuo's case.

Now Xiao Caiyi killed Xu Qian angrily, not for anything else, but to take revenge on Xu Yong.

Xiao Caiyi's case finally brought Xiao Zuo's case back to light.

The case was handed over to the Imperial Historian Wei Chiwei, who had just taken office.

This Wei Chi, Shen Ruojiao was deeply impressed.

The reason why Bai Zhen in his previous life was able to quickly cut through the chaos and clear the court in the later stage was inseparable from Wei Chi's great help.

Unlike the old fritters in the court, Wei Chi was entrusted by Bai Zhen to reuse, so he dared to speak out.

There was no case of Xiao Caiyi in his previous life, but Wei Chi quickly became famous and became a person who the powerful did not dare to challenge easily.

Wei Chi is worthy of being the person that Bai Zhen admires, acting decisively and acting quickly, but one day, under his leadership, Xiao Zuo's case was overturned and thoroughly investigated, and the truth behind it is suffocating.

Three years ago, Xiao Zuo put a thug who killed a trader in Zuoyu County to prison and sentenced him to death according to the law.

However, Xiao Zuo didn't know that this villain had a bit of a background, his aunt Xu was a relative of Xu Yong.

This distant wind really blew into Xu Yong's ears from 108,000 miles away.

It's just a relative who has never even met in person outside of the five suits, just because of the name Xu Yong, Xiao Zuo, who has clean sleeves and a breeze, is so burdened with trumped-up charges and has not died well.

Xiao Caiyi, that is, Xiao Su, was exiled to the northwest with her family, but the world never hesitated to fall into the well, her mother Wu was tortured and harshly treated by the escorted officers and soldiers, and she was only allowed to wear thin shirts in the cold and cold, and was beaten and scolded at every turn, and before she reached the place of exile, Wu died of fear.

Xiao Su used the excuse of going to the toilet, pushed the soldiers guarding her off the cliff, and began her life of fugitive.

She assumed the pseudonym Xiao Caiyi, and she traveled all the way to Qijing, the former official girl, but now she has fallen into the Qinglou.

In the past three years, she has not dared to forget her family feud for a day, but she has never found a chance to appeal her grievances.

Until Xu Yong's son Xu Qian became her benefactor, Xiao Caiyi planted the seeds of revenge in her heart after learning Xu Qian's identity.

That night, she wanted to knock on the side and inquire about the secret of the year.

How do you know that Xu Qian's words are full of contempt and belittlement for Xiao Zuo: "That old immortal, thinking that he can afford to provoke anyone, dares to challenge my father's authority, Ling Chi's execution is light, so he should be chopped up and fed to the dog." ”

Xiao Caiyi was lost in hatred, and by the time she came to her senses, Xu Qian had already fallen in a pool of blood.

In a hurry, Xiao Caiyi stunned her maidservant, dressed her up as herself, set fire to the embroidery building, and escaped herself.

She wanted to disguise herself and get out of the city, but was taken down by Shen Ruhao and her troops at the city gate.

After listening to her story, Shen Ruojiao was really silent, and after a long time, she sighed.

She is a soft-hearted person, Xiao Caiyi's experience makes her sympathize, such a fateful woman should not come to this point.

But in addition to revenge, Xiao Caiyi also burned her maidservant, how innocent the maidservant was.

If it weren't for the deep hatred in the sea of blood, why would Xiao Caiyi be here.

In the final analysis, it is the injustice of the world that makes the world turn black and white upside down, and there is no distinction between right and wrong.

"Chun'er......" Shen Ruhao called her worriedly.

Shen Ruojiao lowered her eyes, and her slender eyelashes projected a thick shadow.

After being silent for a long time, Shen Ruojiao smiled with relief: "I'm fine, Xiao Caiyi is bent on bringing her father's case back to light, and now, she has got what she wants." ”

Xiao Caiyi's story is lamentable, just because a villain who committed a crime and subdued the law made an honest and good official die unjustly, and finally turned into a sensational murder case in Qijing.

Let the innocent and innocent girl pick up the butcher's knife and stain the blood with her hands, this is the cruelty of the times.

I don't know how Wei Chi will judge this case in the end.

After the palace maid case, Bai Zhen took advantage of the situation to weaken Liu Jian's military power.

Xiao Caiyi's case is also a good time for Bai Zhen to consolidate power.

It's just that there is a far-reaching involvement behind this, from Shangshu Ling Xu Yong, to the bottom of the investigation, I am afraid that none of them will be able to escape the involvement.

What will Bai Zhen do?
