Mu Chenxue and Nangong Shumo were invited back to Qingwangfu early in the morning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info only to see a few people sitting in the study hiding their faces and crying. After listening to the introduction, I realized that these people were Princess Qing's mother's family.

Princess Qing's father was originally a minister, and although Princess Qing's mother was a wife, she never gave birth to a son-in-law, so she died depressed. This Shangshu lord also has a lot of concubines, and his daughters have given birth to a bunch of them, but he doesn't have a son. Later, he married a step-family, and then he gave birth to a son. Because he is an old man, he is especially spoiled. raised his son into an out-and-out gentleman, not to mention, and even murdered, set fire to and robbed people's daughters.

Just two years before Prince Qing entered Beijing, this Shangshu was burdened by his son and was bombed by Yushi. The emperor remembered his many years of exploits, and only dismissed him from his official position and fined him 10,000 taels of silver. Therefore, today's Shangshu has no official position in Beijing, just a cloth cloth.

After sitting for a while and listening to a few people crying intermittently, Mu Chenxue finally understood. It turned out that Princess Qing's half-brother was in trouble again. This time, it was because he gambled money in the gambling house, and he didn't admit it when he lost, and he also beat the owner of the gambling house to death. According to Lao Shangshu's meaning, if it is an ordinary businessman, he will be killed if he is killed, and at most he will pay some silver.

But this proprietor is not small, he is the concubine of the current minister's book, and he is the younger brother of Princess Jing, although he was not born to the same mother, but even if he is a concubine, this matter is not trivial. Therefore, he was imprisoned in a prison by the royal gate of the capital, and no one was allowed to visit him, and now he only waited for all the evidence to be collected, and then reported to the Criminal Department for questioning and beheading after arraignment.

King Qing is now in charge of the Criminal Department, and he has an in-law relationship with this person, so this old Shangshu has a cheeky face and asks for King Qing's mansion.

"Even if the prince doesn't look at the princess's affection, he also has to look at the grandson's face, that is his own uncle, the only son of the old man!" Lao Shangshu endured the distress while wiping his tears, his life was all ruined in the hands of this son, but now let him send the white-haired man to the black-haired man, and after a hundred years, no one will support the old man and send him to the end, thinking about it, even if he doesn't want this old face, he still has to intercede for his son.

"Father-in-law, this matter is not that this king does not want to help, but that this person's evidence and material evidence are there, and this king must not be allowed to bend the law to help his relatives and not help him, not to mention that this king is just temporarily in charge of the criminal department, even if he is in a high position one day, he is not completely sure of this matter!" For this uncle, Prince Qing was reluctant to help, and even when he entered Beijing this time, he didn't even visit the Yue family, in order not to have anything to do with this trouble-loving uncle.

It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, he doesn't go in a hurry, but others want to rush up. It had only been a long time before this man had committed another murderous crime. And this time it was the son of the current official Shangshu who was killed, how could he help? glanced at his sister-in-law and signaled him not to intercede for this kind of person.

Nangong Xun doesn't have a good impression of this little uncle. However, his time in Beijing was still short, and the two families were not close, so although he didn't like it, he didn't have much disgust. Seeing his father's hints, he just didn't hear or see it, and didn't say a word with his tea.

Mu Chenxue watched coldly, and she could probably guess a few points, anyway, this matter had nothing to do with her, and she didn't bother to bother. Nangong Shumo didn't even give a look, and sat next to his wife and just drank tea.

Lao Shangshu saw that everyone in the Qingwang Mansion wanted to stay out of the matter, and he was inevitably angry in his heart, if his daughter came to the capital with him, how could he watch his younger brother being arrested and turn a deaf ear.

"Lord Wang, you are in charge of the Criminal Department, and it is not a matter of whether this person is guilty or not. Even if the child is at fault first, the old man admits the punishment, no matter how much the fine is, the old man admits it. As long as the prince operates a little and finds a death row prisoner to replace him, at least he can save the child's life. The old man promised the prince that as long as he could save the child's life, the old man promised to take him out of the capital, and if he walked far away, he would never cause trouble for the palace! ”

This was said so justifiably, that Mu Chenxue felt embarrassed when she heard it. Qing Wang Ye also listened with disgust, he is now competing with King Jing and King Xuan for the position of prince, the two of them are afraid that they will not be able to get his handle, is it for such a waste person, and he wants to ruin his future. This is simply nonsense.

"This king still needs to order someone to inquire carefully about this matter, and my father-in-law should go back first. If there is still room for maneuver, this king will not ignore it. However, this king still says the same thing, I can only try my best, and there is no guarantee that it will be successful! "Who knows if you try it or not. Anyway, King Qing would never go to King Jing to intercede for this person.

"You!" Lao Shangshu looked helpless, he has no official or position now, if it weren't for the fact that he is the Yue family of King Qing, I am afraid that there is no place for him in this capital. Now I can only watch my son be tried and die.

"Okay, I'll wait! Let's go! In a fit of rage, he walked away with his family. Nangong Xun and the princess of the county stood up to send each other, they are juniors after all. Qing Wangye didn't get up, just waved his hand, which was considered a return gift.

When everyone left, Prince Qing sat on the Taishi's chair with a tired face and looked at the concubine, "Shumo, what do you think about this?" ”

"This matter depends on the father's intentions, if the father still wants to fight for that position, then this matter can only be handled impartially. If my father wants to trade his future for this person's life, he can do what he just said! Nangong Shumo understood that his father already had an idea in his heart, and asked him just to make himself feel better.

The father and son didn't speak again, and when Nangong Xun and the princess of the county came back, several people discussed the matter again.

The princess of the county glanced at the prince of the county with disdain, when she married into the Qingwang Mansion, she was angry with her mother-in-law everywhere, and she was disgusted by the prince of the county in everything. Now that I have entered the capital, I know that my mother-in-law's mother-in-law has long been ruined, and it is not the same as her mother's family, "Father, this matter is the fault of that little uncle, father must not offend King Jing for this kind of person, let King Xuan take the handle!" ”

Although the princess of the county said this is not good, she finally understands what is feasible and what is not.

Nangong Xun glanced at the princess of the county and did not comment, but looked at Mu Chenxue with his spare eyes, seeing her indifference, it was obvious that he didn't want to cause trouble, and sighed secretly in his heart.

Qing Wang Ye nodded, "Although the eldest daughter-in-law said this plainly, she got to the point. This matter will be investigated carefully by the father, but the feasibility is too small, I am afraid that in the end, I will still have to pay for one life! "Prince Qing can't ignore the law, but for the sake of his son-in-law's face, he can't ignore it completely.

"It's good for my father to make up his mind about this matter!" Nangong Xun also knew about this, but he was afraid that it had become a death case, and even if he wanted to, he couldn't help. Rather than this, it is better to let go, at least for his father to fight for a loyal and virtuous name. (To be continued.) )
