Chapter 536: A New Puzzle
Qiao Zhao couldn't help but clench the water glass and calmly looked at the man who was asking. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
She could clearly see the other party's nervousness.
"I don't talk about kissing in the moon. ”
Shao Mingyuan's eyes lit up: "How about the spring next year?"
"I haven't reached the end yet, and my parents won't necessarily say yes. ”
Hearing Qiao Zhao mention his parents, Shao Mingyuan became even more nervous, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Zhaozhao, what do you think of what I did just now?"
"Huh?" Qiao Zhao didn't know where to start for a while.
Shao Mingyuan rubbed his hands: "That's it...... My mother-in-law is still happy with me, isn't she?"
Qiao Zhao directly smashed the handkerchief on the man's face, and said angrily: "Do you want face? Who is your mother-in-law?"
Knowing that the He family had left, Shao Mingyuan's courage immediately strengthened, and he said with a smile: "Whoever is your mother, who is my mother-in-law." ”
Qiao Zhao glanced at him.
Shao Mingyuan held Qiao Zhao's hand, noticed that it was a little cold, and rubbed it gently with both hands: "Zhaozhao, seriously, I just behaved okay?"
Qiao Zhao couldn't help laughing: "I thought you were bold, but you would be afraid of my mother." ”
"Of course, what if my mother-in-law doesn't marry you to me?"
Qiao Zhao sighed: "The marriage event is the order of the parents, you ask me, how do I know what to do?"
Shao Mingyuan was stupid when he heard this, raised his hand and rubbed his face, and said in distress: "You mean that my mother-in-law is dissatisfied with me?"
Qiao Zhao glanced at him: "What would you do if you had a daughter who was not yet in love, and a daring boy took a fancy to her and secretly bought your house next door for a convenient tryst?"
The general's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he said coldly: "I skinned that kid!"
Qiao Zhao didn't speak, just looked at the stunned man and smiled.
Shao Mingyuan rubbed his face fiercely: "It's over!"
He was depressed for a moment, and struggled: "But next door to our house is the Prince's Mansion, and no one can afford it......"
Located near the Imperial City, the Champion Hou Mansion is the Imperial Mansion of the Son of Heaven, representing the extraordinary glory of the Champion Hou.
Qiao Zhao stopped teasing him: "Okay, let's talk about our affairs next year, anyway, it's not in a hurry, you send this account book over first, and then notify me at any time if there are other things." ”
Shao Mingyuan took the account book, listless.
Who said there was no hurry? He's twenty-one!
The daughter-in-law who has been married for several years has become a little girl, and she has to wait for her to grow up slowly, and the taste is not enough to be humane to the outside world.
Shao Mingyuan sent Qiao Zhao to the gate, raised his hand and lightly touched her cheek, and said softly: "Go back and have a good rest, and let Chenguang come next door to find the guards guarding the house if you have something." ”
"Got it, you go quickly, it's important to get down to business. ”
Qiao Zhao stood beside the apricot tree, watching the man neatly turn over and disappear into the alley, and then turned around and returned to Loei.
When Shao Mingyuan rushed back to the yamen of the Criminal Department, it was almost noon, and the three important ministers in the study had no intention of eating, waiting for him to come back.
As soon as Shao Mingyuan appeared at the door, the three of them immediately got up to greet him.
"How's it going?"
Shao Mingyuan handed over the ink-scented account book.
Kou Xing took it and opened it, and the small characters of Duanli jumped on the paper.
Kou Xing couldn't help but look at Shao Mingyuan.
Shao Mingyuan stood aside expressionlessly, and there was no clue on his face.
Kou Xing finished reading it and handed the account book to Zhang Siqing on the side.
Zhang Siqing turned to one of the pages, pointed to a person's name and said: "I remember this person, a small hundred households can accept a bribe of five hundred taels, which is really shocking!"
Zuo Du Yushi also thought about it, and said with a smile: "I also have an impression of this person, at that time, Lord Zhang was impressed when he saw his name at a glance, right?"
The hundred households recorded in the account books have the same name as Zhang Siqing, and Zhang Siqing scolded at that time, but he didn't expect that this time became the key to verifying the correctness of the account books.
"Even the page number and position of the name record are exactly the same. Master Hou, Xia Guan is really a little curious about who you wrote this account book. Zhang Siqing said with admiration.
Shao Mingyuan said bluntly: "It doesn't matter who owns the account book, the important thing is that it can solve the trouble of the three adults. Zhang Siqing, did you say yes?"
Zhang Siqing's officialdom has been crawling for many years, and it is certainly not easy to get into the position of Dali Siqing, and hearing the faint warning in Shao Mingyuan's tone dispelled the idea of asking.
It doesn't matter who writes the account books silently, and the most important thing is not to delay them in investigating the case.
"Is there another account book, has my uncle written it down?"
Kou Xing said with a smile: "That account book should be thicker, Mo'er should be written soon." ”
As soon as the words fell, Qiao Mo walked out of the study.
He couldn't hide his tiredness between his eyebrows, but his expression was calm and calm, and he gave the thick account book to Kou Xingze with both hands: "Kou Shangshu, take a look." ”
Kou Xing quickly flipped through it and said to the other two: "Then ask Xing Yushi to transcribe it." ”
The two nodded in unison.
When the two account books were in hand, I thought that this difficulty was over, but who knew that there was a problem when I got to Xing Yushi.
"The original account book was lost, so let me re-transcribe what someone else wrote silently?" Xing Yushi's face was serious, and he shook his head again and again, "This is absolutely not good!"
"Why not?" Zhang Siqing looked surprised.
Xing Yushi Zhengse said: "The account books are related to the fate of many officials, how can they be faked?"
"Who faked it? These two account books are completely written silently according to the account books you wrote!" Zhang Siqing said frantically.
"Where's the evidence?" Xing Yushi asked rhetorically.
"Evidence?"
"Yes, Xia Guan can't remember the contents of the two account books now, how can I be sure that there are no mistakes in the two account books that have been re-written?"
"This-" Zhang Siqing was speechless when asked, and glanced at the left capital Yushi.
This is your subordinate, so let's do it.
Zuo Du Yushi cleared his throat and said in a cordial tone: "Xing Yushi, these two account books are indeed written silently according to the account books you wrote, we have verified it just now, there is no problem." The emperor is still waiting for the results of our case to be investigated, so you should transcribe the account books again as soon as possible. ”
Xing Yushi was stunned and asked: "How to verify? I am the one who writes the account books, and I can't be sure that the two account books are not wrong, how can the three adults verify it?"
Zuodu Yushi was choked and speechless.
Zhang Siqing rolled his eyes at Zuodu Yushi, and said in his belly: No wonder others say that the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate are all stones in the pit, smelly and hard!
Zuo Du Yushi's face was a little unbearable, and he accentuated his tone: "Xing Yushi, if you don't transcribe the account books, have you ever thought that everything you have worked so hard for will be in vain?
"The officials know these truths, but one is one, and two is two. The names on the account books that the adults see are related to the fate of a family or even a clan, if the lower officials transcribe the wrong account books, what is the difference between them and those silverfish?" Xing Yushi asked rhetorically.
