Chapter 395: For the Righteousness
The next day, Zhenbei Wangfu.
"It's all a hundred taels of silver tickets, a million reads in total;."
"Please save our seventh sister, princess!"
The fourth wife said, the eldest wife, the second wife, and the third wife were behind her, and in front of them, a box was open, and it was full of silver tickets, according to the kidnappers' requirements, they were all small amounts of one hundred taels, and they were not serial numbers, they were neatly arranged, and they were full of boxes.
This is not only the Red Mansion, but also the Runan Palace, and even the Protector Mansion, they all did not hesitate to lend a hand, and this is why the ransom was collected so quickly.
Princess Zhenbei was furious: "What are you doing here?" Do you look down on our Zhenbei Palace? Since Aunt Hong is the aunt of our Zhenbei Wangfu, this money is naturally from our Zhenbei Wangfu. It's only one million taels, can't we afford the North Wangfu in Zhenbei? ”
For others, this is a huge amount of money.
Even for the king of Runan, it is not a small amount.
But for Zhenbei Wangfu, sincerity is not a problem. In other mansions, even if the wealth rivals the country, the wealth is not personal, but the entire family has accumulated over generations, and it must be used for the entire family. Personal wealth is not so much. But Zhenbei Wangfu is different, it has been passed down through generations, accumulated for hundreds of years, and all the wealth is concentrated in one person, this amount is unimaginable to others.
Therefore, Princess Zhenbei really hasn't thought about this issue.
Money has never been an issue for her.
Million?
Although it is not a small drizzle, it is equivalent to the price of a few more sets of jewelry and a few more paintings, which is worth nothing. Especially with Li Mobiao's attention to Red Qi, this money is not distressing at all.
Princess Zhenbei has only one concern, that is, whether Hong Qi can come back safely.
That's the most important thing.
After that, how to get back this field, dare to move the idea to the head of the Zhenbei Palace, this, absolutely intolerable, must give this what the hell the Avengers a ruthless, unforgettable lesson, let them know that some people are not something they can provoke casually.
Of course, the safety of the red seven is a priority.
The others are all behind this one.
Princess Zhenbei said to the four wives: "I have received the wishes of several wives." But you can bring the money back, we don't need it. If you really want to help, let Princess Runan take more pain, and if they can have any news about Aunt Hong's whereabouts, let her come and tell me immediately, so that it will be a great help. ”
Princess Zhenbei's words greatly surprised the wives of the Hong family.
A few people came with a box full of a million, and when they returned, they still carried it, and a silver ticket was not less.
"It seems that we misjudged Princess Zhenbei. With so much money, I thought she wouldn't give it for the seventh sister, but I didn't expect that we sent the money, but she refused to accept it. ”
The third lady sighed.
"Well, it seems that this princess of Zhenbei is really good to Seventh Sister. A few days ago, it was probably because we misunderstood, and there may be something unknown about it. It shouldn't be bad for the seventh sister. Otherwise, it should be too late for her to be happy now, someone happens to do it for her, where will she go all out to rescue. ”
The second wife nodded in agreement.
She was also willing to let the fourth wife stay in the Zhenbei Palace, so that she could know the progress of the matter as soon as possible. It seems that it is indeed true, if it is a hypocrisy to deal with us, it should be impossible to let the fourth wife stay here. ”
The eldest lady also said.
Princess Zhenbei's expression calmed their heavy hearts a little. However, anxiety still hangs over them like a dark cloud.
"However, those people have collected the money, will they really let the seventh sister come back?"
The eldest lady said worriedly.
This is also a question in the hearts of all people.
But no one can answer this question except those kidnappers who call themselves the Avengers.
And this big case boiled over the whole of Kyoto, and naturally it also alarmed the one in the palace. After Min Fengxian initially clarified his thoughts, he entered the palace to report the current case to the emperor. From Min Fengxian's mouth, the emperor learned that it was not enough for those thieves to kidnap dozens of women at the feet of the dignified emperor, and even blatantly blackmailed the courtiers.
"It's the other way around! It's the other way around! ”
The emperor was furious, and he was simply angry.
Do these thieves still take him as an emperor seriously? To make such a rebellious act right under his nose is a complete challenge to his authority.
"Min Fengxian, what are you doing?"
"After checking for so long, the answer you gave me was that I don't know?"
The emperor even turned his anger on Min Fengxian, a courtier he had always loved.
"The minister is afraid, please punish the saint."
Min Fengxian bent his legs and knelt down.
"Panic, panic, panic has a fart, I want you, yes, answer, case!"
The emperor took a deep breath and looked at Min Fengxian: "Fengxian, I want you to give me a sincere word, you can't find out this case?" Or are you afraid to look it up? ”
Min Bong-hyun's body trembled.
"Holy Heaven!"
"Tell me what you deduce! With your ability, after checking for so long, you shouldn't find nothing. Even if you can't find out the origin of these men in black, there should be some speculation. Let's talk about it! Even if you are wrong, I will forgive you for your innocence. ”
"The minister is ashamed of his love for the emperor."
Min Fengxian said, and then he talked about his speculation.
This group of men in black, of course, did not leave any clues. However, it is absolutely impossible to appear out of thin air, to do things strictly, to act quickly, to be ruthless, and to be masters, and what is even more terrifying is that they show great organization and discipline, and they are also equipped with unified weapons.
Such a person is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Ordinary people, there is no need for this, to raise such a dead man.
So, Min Bong-hyun made a list of the various mansions that he thought had the strength to keep such a dead man in captivity. Seeing this list, especially the names listed at the top that Min Fengxian focused on circled with a red pen, there were waves in the emperor's eyes.
The saint closed his eyes, opened them again, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you really think that one of them did it?" ”
"It can only be said that the possibility is relatively large, but it is not ruled out that there are others."
Min Fengxian replied, except for the above, other people don't have this ability at all, and there is no need for this.
"For what? The reason? Is it just for the money? Which of them is short of money? ”
The Emperor asked again.
Min Fengxian replied: "There may not have been a shortage before, but now, it is difficult to say. ”
Before knowing the blackmail, Min Fengxian never understood why this group of people in black did these things for, personal vendettas, he didn't believe it. So, although this list is listed, it is not certain who is more suspicious. But after knowing about the blackmail, he had a guess in his mind. Based on this speculation, he also knew that it was time to speak out. This matter is no longer a problem that he can solve.
The emperor listened to Min Fengxian's words and was silent for a long time.
He understood the meaning of Min Bongxian's words.
Now, some people are probably really short of money.
The Emperor only felt a pang in his heart, his body shook slightly, and he shook, and sat down weakly under the throne.
"Your Majesty, how are you? You okay? ”
Min Bong-hyun asked with concern.
"It's fine." The emperor shook his head, "Fengxian, don't bother the two masters, this matter, you continue to investigate as you want, I want to know the final result." However, remember, don't tell anyone, even if it's a book of the Criminal Department, don't use the people of the Criminal Department, I will order someone to cooperate with your investigation. ”
Min Fengxian's heart sank, and he responded respectfully: "Yes!" ”
The emperor waved his hand tiredly, and Min Fengxian retreated.
Later, the emperor sternly warned the courtiers who had beauties in their homes to be taken captive, asking them to cooperate with Min Fengxian's actions and not to have any contact with the thieves in private, such as paying ransom or something. Today, those thieves can blackmail them to pay ransom, and another day, those thieves will be able to blackmail them into perverting the law and betraying the court. Such behavior must not be condoned. If a courtier commits misdeeds without permission, he will not be spared!
The emperor's tough words were originally a declaration of not compromising with the thief.
After those courtiers went back, they rolled their eyes and had a new trick.
I don't know who did it first, to the effect that in order to be loyal to the court and the emperor, they will never compromise with the wicked, do not encourage the evil tendencies, and for the sake of justice, they will not care about everyone's honor and disgrace, sacrifice, and tearfully made a eulogy to the captive beauty, cherishing her good years, but falling into the hands of the wicked.
As soon as these words came out, they were applauded by the audience.
Loyalty and filial piety come first, and the others must come last. For the sake of loyalty, sacrificing the beloved woman, this is in line with people's values, and everyone praises the behavior of this adult.
With this one, even if those thieves really do their threatening behavior, it will no longer have any bad impact on him, and people will only remember him sacrificing his personal righteousness for the sake of righteousness.
As soon as this trick came out, others followed up one after another, all of them were impassioned and tearful, for fear that they would not be affectionate enough and righteous enough.
Oki-in
When the fourth lady heard this, she couldn't help but worry in her heart.
Although Princess Zhenbei said it well before, but now that the emperor has given an order, Princess Zhenbei may change her mind.
The fourth wife was worried.
This is the Emperor's order!
Who would dare to disobey?
Chunfeng and Xia Xi are also worried, and now, the Wutong Courtyard has been lifted, and Qi Lin and Song Shi are also free, but their anxiety has not decreased in the slightest compared to when they were imprisoned before.
Before, at least they knew that Red Qi's disappearance was related to Princess Zhenbei. Now, who do you call them to? Princess Zhenbei is more well-informed than the fourth wife, so she naturally knows about it.
