Chapter 354: Opening the case, knowing how to inquire

On the first day of the first lunar month, it was the day when the hundred officials rested, but the peace of the Yushitai was completely broken by a drum of grievances in the morning.

As the drumbeat became more and more intense, the peace of the entire Xingyang was also shattered.

The imperial historian on duty today in the Yushi Taili is He Min, who is forty-five years old, a serious and old-fashioned official, because he is upright, and he is very trusted by Emperor Shou. He was extremely easy to offend people in this position, and he suffered a lot of losses in his early years, but in the past two years, because of his son's strategy, no one dared to argue with him. After all, He Fangluo is young and has already occupied a place among the generals of the forbidden army, and everyone has to sell a few thin noodles.

He Min stayed at the Yushitai last night, and as soon as he heard the sound of the drums, he turned over and got up.

His eyes shone with a completely different light than usual, and he asked, "Who is beating the drum?"

"My lord, it was Master Chen Yusu who returned to Beijing from Jiangnan to report on his work, escorting a couple and a child to avenge their grievances. The guard said.

He Min's eyes shone even more: "Open the hall!"

The time has come!

He walked out quickly and instructed the little servant who followed behind him: "You go to the Lingwang Mansion to deliver a message, tell the prince, and say that the person has arrived." ”

The little guy nodded and walked quickly.

He Min tidied up his clothes and walked majestically into the court. Chen Yusu was around the Wan family, the two greeted each other, Chen Yusu explained the situation, the Wan family sent a paper, and He Min took the case. He only glanced at it, and knew the reason of the matter, and coldly ordered left and right: "Come on, verify the case......"

In the Meiguo Mansion, Fu Rongyue slept lazily, and when she got up, it was already three poles in the morning, and after the green pothos waited for her to change her clothes, she whispered: "Princess, a message from the south of the Yangtze River has arrived, and Lord Chen has arrived in the capital." ”

"Huo Kun, have they returned safely?" Fu Rongyue opened her eyes, her eyes were extremely calm.

The pothos pursed her lips and smiled: "The brothers are not damaged, only two of them were slightly injured." ”

"Injured?" Fu Rongyue turned her head to look at her, "Their martial arts are among the best, who can hurt them?"

"Huo Kun commanded the message, it seems to be someone from Tang Zong's side," Lu Pothos looked at her worriedly, wanted to speak and stopped, endured it, and finally couldn't hold back: "Those people are a little arrogant, Huo Kun led them to be indignant for a while, so they killed one by mistake." Early this morning, when they were outside the city, the people of Tang Sect said that they wanted revenge. Princess, Commander Huo is worried that Tang Zong will find trouble with you, after all, the relationship between our Yinyue Tower and the Ling Wangfu is clear to Tang Zong. ”

"It doesn't matter. I'll go to the king. Fu Rongyue relaxed a little when she heard this.

It was Tang Zong who made the move, it wasn't a big problem, it was just that it was a little difficult to explain that a person died.

Since it is difficult to explain, let Wei Mingxi explain!

Thinking of this, Fu Rongyue showed a deeper smile on the corner of her mouth, others didn't know what was going on, but she knew that Wei Mingxi had some unclear relationship with Tang Sect, and even Tang Chuqing would not easily touch him!

The pothos went down, Fu Rongyue thought about it intently, and instantly appeared in Wei Mingxi's study.

Wei Mingxi would get up early every day to practice martial arts, and after that, he would spend a morning in the study, either reading books or reviewing government affairs in the northwest. She calculated very accurately, Wei Mingxi was really in the study, and when she saw her quietly appearing, she was not surprised at all, and motioned for her to sit down: "But it's for the affairs of the Yanbei Gang?"

"They got their hands dirty. Fu Rongyue said simply and bluntly: "It's just that there were some conflicts with Tang Zong, Qu Zhenning actually bought Tang Zong's killer to assassinate Chen Yusu, Huo Kun and they killed Tang Zong's killer, and the other party died one, saying that they wanted to settle accounts." ”

"Hmm. Wei Mingxi's eyes never left the official document in his hand: "It's not a big deal, Tang Chuqing will appease the people of the Tang Sect." ”

"Early this morning, Chen Yusu entered Beijing. Fu Rongyue was also extremely relieved to see him so calm, and added with a smile.

Wei Mingxi finally raised his eyes and glanced at her, and his tone was teasing: "Your people in Yinyue Tower are unreliable, didn't anyone tell you who was on duty at the Yushitai last night?"

"Who is it?" no one really said, Fu Rongyue asked.

Wei Mingxi threw out He Min's name.

Fu Rongyue sat back in his place and pouted: "Okay, I admit that in this regard, your shadow won a little bit. ”

Shadow has always been well-informed, and she didn't expect even her people to be so accurate when they arrived. Then, let's wait to see the fall of the composer!

The two looked at each other and smiled......

As expected, on the first day of the first lunar month, Chen Yusu escorted the Wan family to the Yushitai, and He Min took the case; because considering the seriousness of someone intercepting and killing the governor of Jiangnan halfway, he was afraid that there would be a higher level of people and officials to protect each other and obstruct the trial of this case, that afternoon, He Min personally entered the palace to ask Emperor Shou for an order, and after winning the gold medal given by the emperor, he took two adjutants, under the protection of the guards, and went south with the Wan family to try the case.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, He Min quietly arrived in Suzhou, and a storm kicked off......

Of course, that's all for later.

The emperors of the first month are exceptionally calm, according to the gift list of the New Year's banquet, the fourth day of the first month is the palace of the king of Qi, the sixth day of the first month is the palace of the king of Zhao, and the annual banquet of the palace of the king of Ling is on the ninth day of the first month.

In the past two years, Wei Mingxi has made a difference in the northwest, changing his former demeanor, and the admiration of civil and military officials for him has accumulated over time, and there are many people who want to get close to him in the open and secret, so this year's annual banquet, the Lingwang Mansion did not shirk as in previous years, although it did not open the door widely, but also sent out a few posts. Similarly, the post sent by others was also accepted by the Lingwang Mansion. This includes the Qi Palaces and the Zhao Palaces.

Seeing that the annual banquet of the Qi Wangfu was coming, the Qi Wangfu was naturally busy up and down, and the most idle was Wei Mingyuan, the king of Qi.

He wandered around the mansion, and suddenly remembered what Princess Qi had said to him last time, so he went to the main courtyard.

Princess Qi was very busy, but she was very happy to see him coming, and greeted him and said, "Why is the prince here?

"Baiguan Xiu, there is nothing to deal with, I just have time to come and see you. Wei Mingyuan held Princess Qi's hand, after the last upside down, he loved this princess a little more, and gently squeezed Princess Qi's hand: "Tomorrow is going to arrange a New Year's banquet, the princess is really hard." Are you tired?"

"I'm tired, how is the prince doing?" Princess Qi playfully tilted her head and blinked.

Her current appearance made Wei Mingyuan quite happy, pinching her with one hand, and quietly reaching out with the other hand to hug her waist, and doing nonsense on it with his hand: "Come, this king will pinch you!"

Princess Qi couldn't stand him being provoked like this, and with a sigh, her body softened. Seeing this, the slaves and maids all retreated with interest, and Wei Mingyuan immediately bullied up, held the person firmly in his arms, and kissed her earlobe: "It's better now?"

"Lord, ...... in broad daylight" Princess Qi glared at him in annoyance.

Wei Mingyuan giggled, smiled and smiled, leaned close to her ear and whispered to the right thing: "Tomorrow is the New Year's banquet, everyone in the court is coming, you want to find a way to get some useful news for me." The assassination of Wei Mingxi and Wei Mingyu on Chinese New Year's Eve failed, and I am afraid that they will make a move. ”

It turns out that all kinds of intimacy is a cover for discussing this matter!

Princess Qi's smile stagnated slightly, and her heart was sour, but she knew that Wei Mingyuan didn't like others to take away his face the most, so she nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will go to Chengfu to find out the news in a while." ”

"Hard work princess!" Wei Mingyuan hugged her for a while, and then stopped going.

Princess Qi sat alone for a while, and then the girl looked outside, and when she saw her coming over, she trotted over with a depressed expression: "Princess, the princess went to the side concubine's house." ”

"I see. Princess Qi's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light.

She lowered her eyes, her heart was extremely uncomfortable, she got up and stood for a while, and instructed the girl: "Prepare a gift, let's go to Chengfu." ”

When Princess Qi arrived, the Cheng family was busy in the mansion, and after the Marquis of Zhongsu Mansion was gone, she didn't have any relatives and friends to visit at the end of the year, so she was very idle, but because of Fu Rongyue's marriage in March, she was afraid that Fu Rongyue didn't understand the customs, and some things were not fully prepared, so she had a lot of things to worry about every day.

Today, I was taking the girls to make a dress for Fu Rongyue to return to the door, and suddenly I heard Lingxue's announcement that Princess Qi came to the door to congratulate her, and her face sank suddenly.

Fu Rongmin frowned and said, "Tomorrow is the New Year banquet of the Qi Palace, how can Princess Qi have time to come over at this time?"

"Why else?" Cheng knew it, a sneer at the corner of his mouth, his eyes swept over the work in his hand, and he suddenly had an idea: "It's okay if she's here, just right, I have a message to give her!"

Cheng instructed the girl to be dexterous: "Qiao'er, put these away." Didn't we have scrapped materials and embroidery before? ”

Fu Rongmin immediately understood what she meant, the two looked at each other and smiled, and Cheng instructed Lingxue: "Welcome guests!"

Fu Rongmin went out from the side door, Cheng got up, and arrived at the gate with Lingxue, and greeted him from afar: "Princess Qi is coming, and she is not welcomed, but I don't know what wind actually blew you here?"

"Mrs. Cheng always likes to joke like this!" Princess Qi pursed her lips and smiled: "This is not the New Year, I'm afraid that I will be busy in a few days, so I will come to pay New Year's greetings to Mrs. in advance!"

"Please!" Cheng was overjoyed, and enthusiastically stepped forward to hold Princess Qi's hand: "I'm bored, doing embroidery in the back garden, the princess came just in time, you can point out the concubine." ”

Princess Qi raised her eyebrows and said, "Mrs. Cheng is ingenious, what kind of good thing is this doing?"

Cheng's mansion is not big, and he arrived at the back garden while speaking, and there is an embroidered frame on the edge of the charcoal basin under the corridor, and the red and happy materials can be seen at a glance. Cheng led Princess Qi to sit just now, and was about to speak, Fu Rongmin seemed to have come back from outside, entered the door with an angry face, raised his eyes and saw the things in Cheng's hand, and immediately became angry: "Mother, why are you still making these things!" I told you, people are now the princess of a serious prince, and they can't look down on the things that our ordinary people use, what kind of effort do you still have, thankless, and people don't appreciate it at all!"

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of fabric from Cheng's embroidery frame and threw it into the charcoal basin beside him!
