Chapter 504: We Must Do It
Langhua sent Gu Shiheng away, and then called Lao Le over to inquire carefully. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lao Le said softly: "Now in Beijing, except for the Zhao family walking around, Qu Chengru, who has just taken over the case, has gone to the mansion of the officials of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple. ”
Lao Le raised his head after speaking, his eyes lit up: "I also went to Xu Shiyuan's house." ”
Langhua couldn't help but be overjoyed: "It's really not easy to catch him." ”
Lao Le said in a low voice: "This Xu Shiyuan rarely socializes outside except for going to the yamen every day, and the officials who come and go are all in business dealings with him. ”
Langhua nodded.
This is where Xu Shiyuan is smart.
Xu Shiyuan went from a county clerk to a fictitious position, such a promotion is very inconspicuous, and it is easy not to be targeted, but it is easy to advance again. He has no other hobbies, rarely goes out to socialize, writes and paints at home, tunes the piano, and seems to have no quarrel with the world, even if he is expelled from the house by Mrs. Xu, he does not find the elders of the Xu family to argue, as if he is very satisfied with the current situation.
In Tang Bin's case, the imperial court investigated the officials of Zhending and Taiyuan, and Xu Shiyuan was not implicated in the slightest. The people of Taiyuan praised Xu Shiyuan as a clean official. Even Hang Tingzhi couldn't say anything about Xu Shiyuan, at most he could only do his part. In such a big case as Tang Bin, Xu Shiyuan refused to go along with it at best, but he did not have the courage to expose it to the imperial court.
Now that I think about it, Xu Shiyuan's approach is extremely clever.
If Tang Bin was not accused, Xu Shiyuan would also be promoted because of his meritorious service in protecting the city, Tang Bin was accused, and Xu Shiyuan, as one of the few honest officials in Zhending and Taiyuan, was also promoted by the Ministry of Officials to stay in the capital.
With such means and calculations, it is absolutely impossible to be indisputable with the world.
Lao Le said: "After all, we have only arranged manpower in Beijing, it is difficult to cover everything, the eldest lady has always felt that Xu Shiyuan is strange, and we have only found out a little clue now." ”
Not everyone is as stupid as Lu Wenrong, Xu Shiyuan is an inconspicuous pawn and acts cautiously, if they are on guard, it is difficult to catch the right one, if they didn't deliberately retreat, so that Qu Chengru couldn't help but make a move, they still only had doubts and couldn't find the credentials.
"I can't let my father know about this. Langhua instructed Lao Le.
Lao Le said: "Don't worry, eldest lady. ”
Langhua knew very well that Xu Shiyuan and Xu's matter was a pimple in his father's heart, and let his father know that she was investigating Xu Shiyuan, and he couldn't think that she wanted to find out about her life experience, and when she found out everything, she would tell her father as it was.
Lao Le was still puzzled: "Miss, I don't understand something, what do you think a person like Xu Shiyuan can do? Who are he and Qu Chengru obeying?"
Langhua stood up: "Do you remember when I was in Western Xia, King Ning called me 'Ah Jing'?" If it wasn't for Pei Qitang to break the siege that time, after she was hugged by King Ning in public, she would not have faced the current situation.
If it is King Ning, then everything has an explanation.
King Ning and Xu Shiyuan will stand together logically because of Ah Jing's relationship.
It is only Ning Wang's party that is unwilling to see the Zhao family give birth to a prince and try every means to get rid of the Zhao family.
If Xu is alive, he must be in Xu Shiyuan's hands, and in the face of his former lover, Xu will tell Xu Shiyuan everything. Including her life experience.
She suspected that Xu Shiyuan's adultery with the Xu family was revealed, and Xu Shiyuan also had the credit of Xu Shiyuan, and Xu Shiyuan's purpose was to ask the Gu family to give up on her, or for her to leave the Gu family.
Everything is becoming clearer.
All the clues point to these two people.
……
Master Zhao shrank himself in the dark, and waited until the jailer came to deliver the food, and then Master Zhao raised his head and slowly moved to the cell door.
The jailer said in a low voice: "Master, the second master has already been informed, and the second master has also turned over his confession." ”
Master Zhao was overjoyed.
They all retracted their confessions one after another, but the court did not impose heavy interrogations on them, what does this mean? It was the emperor who deliberately wanted to release them, and it was only because the mother was pregnant that they would have a glimmer of life.
"Now let's go and say a word to my mother, so that we can go out as we should. ”
After the emperor punished the Pei family and the Gu family, only the newly appointed Lord Qu held on to them, and the other officials just went through the motions.
The emperor's attitude is already very clear, and now the only one who wants to punish the Zhao family is the queen mother.
Lord Zhao frowned, the most terrible thing now is that if the Zhao family is disposed of by the imperial court, the queen mother will have nothing to rely on, and can only be slaughtered by the queen mother, even if she can give birth to a child, she will go to the mother and keep the child, and the child will become a puppet in the hands of the queen mother.
Master Zhao gritted his teeth, if the Zhao family wants to survive, they must get rid of the Queen Mother.
Master Zhao raised his head: "Tell Mr. Qingyun that the letter we have prepared for many years is useful, and there are many officials' votes." "As long as the officials who have dealings with the Zhao family, the Zhao family has forged a letter of nomination for them, just to wait until the critical moment to use it.
Just like the rebellion of King Qing back then, if there were no letters, how could the emperor punish King Qing.
As long as the time is right, they will help the emperor pull out those fangs that may threaten the emperor.
The emperor will definitely protect them.
"The Gu family and the Pei family will not meddle in this case again?" Master Zhao was still not at ease.
They have already seen Gu Shiheng's interrogation methods, as long as the Gu family and the Pei family don't interfere, this matter will be much easier.
"No, the Gu family is selling medicine, the yard is full of cages, more than a dozen carriages were taken early this morning, and the dart bureau was escorted all the way to the south. ”
If the Gu family is acting, this is really a big move.
Master Zhao breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, send a letter to the queen, so that the queen must seize this opportunity." ”
The emperor gave them a chance to breathe, and they had to take advantage of it.
……
In Cining Palace, the Queen Mother played chess with Cheng Nuguan.
Female Officer Cheng kept wiping the sweat on her forehead, and the Queen Mother attacked and killed all the way today, making it difficult for her to parry.
"No, no more. The Queen Mother threw the chess pieces into the basket and raised her eyes.
"Mother, it's not good to be a slave. Female Officer Cheng hurriedly apologized.
"It has nothing to do with you," the Queen Mother stood up, "It's the mourning family who is anxious for him, the current situation is so obvious, what is he still dragging? ”
The Queen Mother refers to the case of the Zhao family.
Female Officer Cheng licked her lips: "Could it be...... The news of Zhao's pregnancy reached the ears of the emperor. ”
The Queen Mother smiled suddenly, there is no impermeable wall in this palace, and the Jingshi Room only needs to check to know the result, and the emperor will not be surprised at all to know the mourning family.
The mourning family was surprised that those Zhao family members who were in prison also knew.
This child is equivalent to giving the Zhao family hope, and the Zhao family will do everything they can to fight for this line of life.
The bigger the chips you have, the bigger you can do.
She felt that the Zhao family would definitely have trouble.
"Queen Mother," the waiter hurriedly entered the door, "Queen Mother, no, Lord Ning doesn't know what's wrong, from last night to now, the slave and maid went to shout, but they couldn't wake up......"
