Chapter 161: Seeking Death
"Auntie, it's winding outside!" Peng Huai rushed in, and he didn't have time to greet Peng Jin, so he said excitedly, "I just came out of Lantern Alley, and I met the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division passing by, and I heard that they were going to arrest key criminals. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info I heard a few words in a trance, and it was related to the case of fraud in the township test. It seems that the Holy Lord has finished arranging and has begun to collect the net! ”
"Really?!" Peng Jin stood up from the couch with a look of surprise and disbelief.
Peng Huai smiled: "Although it hasn't been determined yet, there is a chance that you won't be able to run!" I was afraid that my aunt and grandmother would be anxious about my uncle's affairs, and I would not be able to sleep and eat, so I hurriedly came over to spread the word in person when I got the news. After a while, I went out to inquire carefully, and when I got the right word, I reported it to my aunt and grandmother. ”
Peng Jin nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you, Uncle Huai!" ”
Peng Huai has served as the chief steward of the Peng Mansion for many years, and he has made a wide range of contacts, from the dignitaries and nobles who have a relationship with the Peng family, to the peddlers and pawns who have passed by the Peng Mansion, he can say a sentence or two. When she inquired about the news, she was naturally much stronger than her, a woman in the house, and a group of maids around her!
Peng Huai thanked him with a smile, and immediately got up to say goodbye and went out to find out the news.
After sending Peng Huai away, Peng Jin clasped his hands and rubbed them, walking around the hugging building with an excited face, unable to stop for a moment.
Just after the Double Ninth Festival, Emperor Taixi acted quickly, and sure enough, he had already prepared, just waiting for the arrest of the relevant personnel and the trial and conviction.
Fortunately, she got a hint from Zhou Zhen in advance, decided to move as soon as possible, and stayed in Lantern Lane before that, and broke off the relationship with the Nagan people in the Sincerity Mansion.
"Yunwu, you went to the Sincerity Bofu for a trip, just say that I am unwell, Doctor Fang Shen instructed me to rest and recuperate, I am afraid that I will not be able to go over to the house to ask the old lady and Mrs. for peace, please forgive them." Peng Jin calmed down and picked up the most urgent things first.
The rules of sincerity Bofu are that the children who are separated do not need to go to the elders to ask for peace as when they live in the Bofu, and they only need to go to the fifteenth day of the new year every month to express their filial piety.
Right now, it's about to be fifteen, and it's not easy to split up and move out smoothly, she doesn't want to go to the Sincerity Bofu at this time, and get entangled with that group of people.
Besides, the rules are not set by people.
If you come in full accordance with the rules, the three rooms can't be separated.
Since the group of people in the Sincere Bofu can ignore the old rule that the ancestors can divide the family for their own interests, and quickly expel the "burden" of the third room, it may not be possible to ignore the rule that the children who are separated from the house only need to ask for peace on the fifteenth day of the first month, and let her **** go to the Bofu to ask the elders for peace, so that they can get close.
Even if he is clever and tongue-in-cheek, on the grounds that the prince Liu Cheng has not yet inherited the title, it is not impossible to exert pressure as an elder to let Sanfang return to the Bofu.
Therefore, she must quickly come up with a way to put an end to these unpleasant possibilities.
And there is no more reasonable reason than when she is pregnant and unwell, and needs to rest and recuperate.
Yunwu understood what Peng Jin meant, nodded happily, and promised: "Grandma, just rest assured!" The slave promises to get the word on! ”
After that, Yunwu immediately withdrew from Baoxia, asked Wang San to prepare the carriage and horses, and hurried to the Chengyi Bo Mansion.
Peng Jin stood alone in the hugging building, unable to sit, unsettled, unable to sleep, a heart fluttering, a moment of excitement and joy, a moment of sorrow and worry, there is no certainty.
Fortunately, soon, Peng Huai inquired about the news clearly and came over to spread the word.
"It is indeed an edict from the saint that the case of fraud in the township test of Lord Zhao and others must be strictly investigated." After getting the accurate news, Peng Huai also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "The people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division acted very quickly, the purpose was clear, and they received the holy order to carry out the search and arrest work in advance, so most of the relevant personnel involved in the case have been arrested. The rest is just a matter of time, so there is nothing to worry about. ”
"The petitioning student who was imprisoned in Dali Temple, did the saint say when he would be released?" Peng Jin hurriedly asked, what she was most concerned about was when Liu Zhi would be acquitted.
Peng Huai smiled: "Auntie, don't worry, everything has to have a charter, right?" Since it is necessary to investigate strictly, it is natural that both the plaintiff and the defendant must be investigated clearly, and the case can be adjudicated before the person can be released. Besides, the third master and they besieged the Gongyuan to petition, causing a lot of turmoil, if the saint released them so easily, how could the majesty of the imperial power be reflected? ”
Emperor Taixi is a Ming monarch who can be a lord, but he is not a soft and friendly person.
Peng Jin nodded, he could only suppress his anxiety, entrust the matter of inquiring about the news to Peng Huai, and patiently wait for the results of the investigation.
And the clouds and mist that went to the Sincerity Bofu to spread the word also quickly turned around.
Peng Jin looked at the sky and asked with some surprise: "They didn't keep you, so as to find out the truth?" How did you come back so quickly? ”
Could it be that that group of people changed their sex, seeing that Liu Zhi might soon be acquitted, but they insisted on the so-called backbone and refused to bow their heads and submit to softness?
"They want to!" Yunwu sneered, leaned in front of Peng Jin again, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously, "However, they must have this leisure and mental energy!" Grandma, don't you know, the Sincerity Bofu has already become a mess at this time. The old lady and the lady were so busy that they didn't even hear what the slave and maid said, so they immediately agreed casually. ”
"What happened to the Sincerity Mansion?" Peng Jin asked in surprise.
"I heard that the second lady committed suicide in the Guerlain Pavilion, and a white silk was put on the beam, but it was discovered by the wife who happened to pass. was so frightened that his wife hurriedly shouted for someone to tear Bai Aya off and tear it up, and hugged the second lady who was about to hit the wall and hit the pillar to find her life, and the two of them cried together.
The movement was too loud, and it soon alarmed the old lady, grandmother and others. Even the second grandmother, who has not yet been confined, heard the news, regardless of her frailty and weakness, struggled to run to the Guerlain Pavilion, and was busy visiting and comforting the second lady!
When the slaves and maids went, the big guys all gathered in the Guerlain Pavilion, crying and making trouble, persuading and scolding, making a mess. The slave maid looked at the gap and told her grandmother that she was unwell and couldn't come to the house to ask for peace, and the old lady and the lady were full of thoughts on the second lady who was crying so much, where could they care about other things! He nodded casually and waved away the slave and maid.
When the slave and maid left the house, they saw that the old man and the old man also rushed back with heavy faces. The slave and maid originally wanted to greet them, but who knew that the master and the master didn't seem to see the slave and maid, and hurriedly went straight to the back house. The slave guessed that the old lady or the lady had sent someone to invite them back to the house to preside over the overall situation. ”
The clouds gloated back. (To be continued.) )
