On the way back to their home, Ximen Donghai heard all kinds of discussions about their Ximen family, so they had a fire in their stomachs.
"What the hell is going on/?" As soon as he returned home, Ximen Donghai called his wife to the study and asked him angrily.
In the face of her angry husband, Mrs. Simon was naturally a little afraid, after all, Ximen Donghai was the head of the family, so Mrs. Simon was with tears in her eyes, a worried face, and cautiously said to her husband; "We don't know the specifics, Yonghao was still asleep in the room last night, who knew that this morning when the holly girl went to wake him up and found that he was gone, we turned the entire general's mansion over, but still didn't see Yonghao's shadow, I thought he went to Chen's house, so I sent someone to Chen's house, but who knew that there was no there, Donghai, what should you do, Yonghao will be in danger? A good person will disappear if he can't see it, this is not an idle thing. As she spoke, Mrs. Simon wept silently.
Ximen Donghai slapped the table fiercely and roared angrily; "Cry, cry, you know that crying, crying can solve the problem?"
Mrs. Simon wiped away her tears, "Then what do you say?" I've already sent out people to look for it everywhere, and Xiao Man took a stick to find it himself, and now there is no news at all, what else do you say? What's going on with our Simon family lately? Why is everything not going well? Lady Simon sighed as she spoke, her eyes lowered, and her tear-stained face was full of sorrow,
Ximen Donghai pressed his anger down fiercely, held the table with his hand, thought carefully for a long time, and finally sighed, "Hey; It seems that I have to go to Jingzhao Mansion to report the case, I didn't want to have anything to do with that Zhongli Wenjun, it seems that this time it won't be okay if it is not involved. Great Literature"
"I heard that Zhongli seems to be from the Prime Minister's Mansion, what if he doesn't help us find Yonghao seriously? Now that the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Royal Mansion can't make a mess of our Ximen family, they must be watching us laughing. Mrs. Simon looked worried, "Hmph." Since he Zhongli Wenjun sat on the chair of Jingzhao Mansion Yin, he had to do things for the people of the capital, and my son disappeared in the place under his jurisdiction, and he dared not to do it seriously. Unless he wants to completely tear his face with our Simon family? Then don't blame me for being ruthless with Ximen Donghai's subordinates. Ximen Donghai was expressionless, his eyes showed a fierce light, he also understood that his wife's worries were not superfluous, but when it came to this field, he could only rely on the power of Jingzhao Mansion, and at the same time wanted to catch Zhongli Wenjun's handle, the last time Zhongli Wenjun enforced the law impartially, and gave Ximen Xiaoqing, who was full of private pockets and embezzled relief food, to the people of the Ximen family hated Wenjun to the core, especially Ximen Donghai, so he has been looking for Wenjun's handle, and wants to give him a dismount, but Wenjun is low-key, cautious, and dedicates himself to public duties, The breeze on his sleeves made him never find a chance to pull him off the horse.
At this time, Zhong Li Wenjun was in Jingzhao Mansion to deal with the files of several cases that had just been handled, several cases were not big or complicated, so it was easier to sort out the files, seeing that there were still two files left to be sorted out, he felt slightly tired, so he slowly got up, came to the window, held the window sill and crooked the window, there were several bird nests on the big willow tree outside the window, and there were a few small birds in the bird's nest, which were chirping at this time, as if waiting for the mother bird to come out of the nest to feed.
When Wen Jun was looking out of the window, he suddenly heard the drum at the door of the mansion, Wen Jun's heart tightened, it was obvious that someone was beating the drum to complain, Wen Jun didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly tidied up his clothes and walked towards the door.
As soon as Wen Jun walked out of the room, he met his master head-on, "The student has seen the adult." "Master is in his Chinese New Year's Eve this year, dressed in gray, with a good appearance, with such a Confucian aura between his gestures, he came to Wen Jun to give a deep salute.
"Master Liu, hurry up and encourage, who is beating the drum outside the door?" Wen Jun looked at Master Liu in front of him with an indifferent expression.
Master Liu said with a straight face; "Back to my lord, the student just heard Zhang Plug say that General Ximen came to complain, so the student hurriedly came to inform the adult. Great Literature"
Wen Jun was stunned when he heard that Ximen Donghai came to complain, "Are you sure it's General Ximen?" ”
Master Liu nodded heavily and cut the railway; "Sure."
"My lord, my lord, General Simon asks to see you." At this time, Zhang Dutou hurriedly rushed to Wen Jun.
Wen Jun didn't know why Ximen Donghai came from, but he didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly went out with the three classes of officials to greet Ximen Donghai.
There is a big drum at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, and generally the people who come to complain have to beat the drum to ask Yin Shengtang to ask about the case, at this time Ximen Donghai is standing on one side of the drum, and a large number of followers are standing behind him.
Zhongli Wenjun hurriedly came to the front of Ximen Donghai and gave a deep salute, "I don't know that the general is here, I will miss the distance, and I still hope for the general Haihan." Zhongli Wenjun has always maintained his usual humble and gentle style, although he knows that he has crossed the street with the Ximen Donghai, at this time, facing the sinking Ximen Donghai, he still maintains his demeanor.
Ximen Donghai condescendingly glanced at the person in front of him, with a modest face, and said in a gloomy voice; "Lord Zhongli doesn't need to be polite, this seat is not here today to visit the adult, but to report the case, I hope the adult can solve the worries of my Ximen family." It's all up to this point, and when I go to Ximen Donghai, I still hold my general's shelf, although I beg for help, I refuse to bow my head.
Zhongli Wenjun's face was calm, and his face was serious, "Since the general is reporting the case, then follow the official hall to talk about it, please." Wen Jun shook his sleeves and made a gesture of please, and Ximen Donghai took it as a deed, swaggering to the front, Wen Jun followed behind, and everyone invited Ximen Donghai into the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion like the stars holding the moon. The officials of Jingzhao Mansion saw that the West Gate and the East China Sea were so breezy, and they didn't put Zhongli Wenjun in their eyes at all, they were all unhappy for their masters in their hearts, since Wenjun took office as the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, he was honest and honest, had a good style, led people to be friendly, and was kind to the people, which made his subordinates very admired, thinking about Zhongli Wenjun's dignified concubine, but there was no frame at all, no matter the case laughed, as long as he was contracted, he could deal with it quickly, whether the person who reported the case was a rich official or a cloth cloth, he could treat everyone equally, impartially, Handle it impartially, and never accept any bribes, not afraid of power, which makes everyone not give him a thumbs up, so they are also desperate to follow, but now seeing Ximen Donghai so arrogant, they are naturally uneasy.
When he came to the mansion, Ximen Donghai was directly let into the living room, "General Ximen is seated." Zhongli Wenjun lowered his head on his fingers and gave way, Ximen Donghai sat down without concessions, and Wenjun kept standing with his head down, after all, his grade is not as good as Ximen Donghai, how dare he do it without his words, if he says that the noble Ximen Donghai man can compare to Zhongli Wenjun, although Wenjun's official quality is low, but he is a dignified concubine, but Wenjun never pretends to be a concubine no matter what occasion.
Seeing that Wen Jun was still standing, Ximen Donghai hurriedly said Lord Zhongli, please take a seat, "Xiaguan obeys." Zhongli Wenjun sat down, and the servant gave the two of them a business, and then withdrew.
After the tea was put aside, Zhongli Wenjun put the tea bowl on the table, and the corner of his eyes slightly swept the Ximen Donghai with a stern face, and then asked quietly; "The general just said that he came to report the case this time, and the subordinate was stupid, so he asked the general to speak clearly."
Ximen Donghai saw that Zhongli Wenjun had been so respectful and humble to himself from beginning to end, but it seemed that the other party had put himself as a general in his eyes, so his face softened slightly, his eyebrows twisted slightly, and the teacups were heavily lined up on the table, and then he sighed, "Hey; Don't mention it, this seat is cautious, I don't want to be an enemy of anyone, but I don't know who I offended, they don't have the ability to take this seat to open the knife, and they actually caught the attention of my son, all of which are worth Yonghao is about to participate in the martial arts exam, so I don't know who has a black heart and actually kidnapped Yonghao, so this seat hereby comes to report the case, hoping that Lord Zhongli can find Yonghao back, and this seat will be grateful. Ximen Donghai arched his hand towards Wen Jun after saying that.
Zhongli Wenjun also heard some rumors about Ximen Yonghao's disappearance, thinking that it was just a rumor, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"The general's mood can be understood, but the laws of my Taizheng Dynasty stipulate that a person can only file a case if he has been missing for twenty-four hours, may I ask the general how long has Young Master Ximen been missing?" Wen Jun is serious.
Hearing this, Ximen Donghai's face was slightly cold, although Wen Jun's words were reasonable, but now Ximen Donghai has taken care of so much, "Although my son has been missing for less than twenty-four hours, I hope that the Lord will file a case immediately, so that you and I will be ministers in the same palace, and I hope that the Lord can be accommodating." Ximen Donghai suppressed his anger and lowered his figure to discuss with Zhongli Wenjun.
When Zhongli Wenjun heard this, he slowly got up, arched his hand at the West Gate Donghai, and refused; "Since Young Master Ximen has been missing for less than two days, then he can't file a case now, the general should know the law of my Taizheng Dynasty, since Wen Jun is the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, how can the imperial court officials not act according to the rules? If this precedent is set for the general, how will Wen Jun say to others that I am enforcing the law like a mountain in the future? How does the law of my Taisho Dynasty restrain others? Show off the majesty? As an important minister of the imperial court, the general should maintain the authority of the law of the Taizheng country, and he must not know the law and break the law, so this case cannot be filed now, and I hope the general understands. Saying that, Wen Jun arched his hand again.
Ximen Donghai originally thought that Zhongli Wenjun would be able to accommodate himself, but seeing that he was so ignorant, he suddenly hit the top beam, who would not dare to give himself face after being an official in the court for several years, but he Zhongli Wenjun actually? "Zhongli don't you have to be the enemy of this seat?" Ximen Donghai Teng suddenly stood up from his chair, and looked at Zhongli Wenjun angrily, a pair of tiger eyes sprayed with raging anger, as if he wanted to burn the other party to death.
In the face of Ximen Donghai's aggressiveness, Zhongli Wenjun was still neither humble nor arrogant, with a calm face, "General Ximen's words are wrong, Wenjun is not an enemy of anyone, but acts impartially, the young master Ximen is missing, and his father's mood is anxious, Wenjun can understand, but understanding is understanding, but it can't be talked about with principles, and public and private can't talk about the same day." If the general uses his identity to force Wen Jun to file a case, then you should ask Gao Ming, as long as I Zhongli Wenjun is still Jingzhao Mansion Yin, I will maintain the law of the country, although I dare not say that I am selfless, but at least I will enforce the law in public service, handle it impartially, and hope that the general will be successful. After that, Zhongli Wenjun once again rushed to the West Gate and Donghai.
Zhongli Wenjun's refusal again and again, taking the national law to say that he had already completely angered Ximen Donghai, and he was so angry that Ximen Donghai actually pulled out the accessories from his waist, the sword light flashed, and the cold light shimmered, "Zhongli Wenjun, don't toast or eat and drink, you are fighting against me Ximen Donghai, do you know?" Facing Ximen Donghai's angry face and cold sword light, Zhongli Wenjun did not dodge or dodge, his expression was calm, and his eyes were calm, "I, Zhongli Wenjun, swear to uphold the authority of the national law to the death, general, please go back, if the specified time comes, if the young master of Ximen does not return to you, you just need to send someone to inform me, I will file a case, but now it is absolutely not." "What Wen Jun said is righteous and strict.
Ximen Donghai thought that he could use his identity to force Zhongli Wenjun, but the other party was a stubborn person, like the stone in the pit was smelly and hard, so he had to give up, put the sword back into the distance, glared at Wenjun fiercely, and said angrily; "Zhongli Wenjun, you are ruthless enough, this seat admires it, and I will say goodbye." With that, he flicked his sleeves, turned around angrily, and strode away from the door.
"General Simon walks slowly, and the next official will not send it." Although Ximen Donghai was arrogant and rude, Wen Jun still sent him out of the mansion with a humble face, and watched the other party disappear before Wen Jun turned back.
