Chapter 154: Master Xiao Zhang is confused and exonerates
"Is everything done?" On the other side, in a corner not far from Zhang's mansion, Lord Xiao Zhang was leaning against the wall. With one hand on his waist and the other hand on the big silver, he looked at the masked man who came with a high look.
"Don't worry." The masked man replied easily, although he was masked, but he could also see a bit of arrogance and smugness in his eyes. After speaking, he stretched out his hand again, squared opposite Xiao Zhang's hand that threw silver.
Xiao Zhang understood this and threw the silver to the masked man. After the masked man received the silver, he walked along the wall, and Lord Zhang also left along the streets and alleys.
This matter soon reached the ears of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother Fengyan was furious, staring at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty in the hall for a long time without speaking.
After a long, long time, he coldly pointed at Lord Xiao Zhang and asked, "Lord Xiao Zhang, it is said that the reason why the Mourning Family's Di'er hurriedly carried the Mourning Family out of the palace is for you!" It is said that you begged Lord Guozhang to call Miss Sun out, but is there such a thing? ”
When Lord Xiao Zhang heard this, his body was stunned, and he forgot to calculate a little, Sun Di can speak. How could she not make a sound when such a big dirty water was splashed, but this time Lord Xiao Zhang didn't dare to deny it. And after getting the news of Zhang Chen's death for no reason, he explained the lie he had told the Queen Mother before.
This is great news.
Lord Xiao Zhang thought about it, and after organizing his words, he stepped forward and explained the ins and outs of the previous in front of the Queen Mother.
"That's true. Wechen hadn't seen Master Zhang Chen for many days, and whenever he wanted to visit, his butler always didn't let us in for various reasons. finally slipped in, but I never saw Zhang Chen. We began to wonder if something had happened to Mr. Zhang, but this matter can be big or small, and we can't just talk nonsense in the face of full evidence. So before, Weichen and a few other Zhang adults came up with a way to call the illness and secretly investigate the matter. It's a pity that there has been no news. So Weichen wanted Miss Sun to take a look, and asked her to spy on the inner courtyard of the Zhang family under the pretense of visiting her father. Weichen thought about Miss Sun's noble status, she went to visit Zhang's mansion, if Master Zhang was there, he couldn't refuse her. Who knew that such a check would find out that Master Zhang was dead. Weichen is also particularly sad. ”
As he spoke, he wiped his eyes with a dry howl a few more times. Pretend to be sad.
This matter sounds like an omission and can't find a flaw, but the Queen Mother doesn't believe it. Xiao Zhang is not such an honest person, so there must be something wrong with these words.
The Queen Mother did not relent, "Since you have long found out that something happened to the minister of the court." Why didn't you report it to the court! Why call the shots! Do you know that there is no mourning in your eyes, and it is also an act of contempt for the court and contempt for the imperial power, and the mourning family can still punish you! ”
"The Queen Mother forgives the sins, the Queen Mother forgives the sins!" Lord Xiao Zhang fell to his knees, shouting the Queen Mother's words of forgiveness. But his heart is particularly calm, this time it was really an unexpected gain, and now he has a legitimate reason to fully explain the previous lie, and he can also get out of it, even if he is punished by the queen mother, he has saved his life and cleared the suspicion of resisting the imperial court, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, so he is very happy.
The next words and deeds were also used with ease, "The Queen Mother forgives her sins, and Weichen was also in a hurry at that time, but I didn't expect this to go." It's just that I feel that the ugliness of the family can't be publicized, and if this matter can be suppressed, it will be suppressed. And at that time, we didn't find the body of Master Zhang, wondering if he had gone out, so we didn't dare to talk nonsense. ”
The Queen Mother didn't want to listen to his nonsense. But he also understands that Lord Xiao Zhang will not attack Zhang Chen, they are relatives, how could they do this, so who killed him.
Could it be Li Yue? Thinking about it like this, his eyes quickly moved from Master Xiao Zhang to Li Yue, and after thinking about it carefully, it was not right, how did Li Yue kill him if he had the power to restrain the chicken. What's more, Zhang Chen's martial arts are not low, and he was the only one in the world who could kill him in the martial arts championship exam that year. The only person who can kill him is probably General Sima, who was the martial champion of the year and is now taking off the general's seal. Zheng is worried that there is no more serious crime to punish the Sima family, and now is a great opportunity. Therefore, the Queen Mother must thoroughly investigate this matter to the end.
"Alright, alright, you can step aside. The ins and outs of the matter are also roughly understood. This matter really has nothing to do with you, but the imperial court lost a high-ranking official for no reason. This matter always has to be investigated, if the mourning family sits idly by and ignores it, let the world see it, let other countries see it! This matter must be thoroughly investigated, and the criminal department will do its best to file a case. ”
Shangshu of the Criminal Department immediately stepped forward to receive the order. This is how the early dynasty ended. The Queen Mother hurriedly went to Sun Di's place.
At this moment, Sun Di was in a trance, his face was pale, and he shouted for most of the day that he was afraid of the dark. Several palace maids couldn't stand a little girl, and finally Father-in-law Qin came to help, and after a little bit of force, she cried and made a fuss.
It made Father-in-law Qin have to let go. Hide behind the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother did not approach Sun Di, so she stood at the door and glanced at Sun Di, who was surrounded by several palace maids, from a distance, and then asked Liu Er, who came to greet her.
"Isn't Miss still getting better?"
Liu Er shook her head, looking distressed, "It's been a day, and Miss is still like this." Ever since Zhang Fu came back, he has been delirious. I'm afraid I was frightened when I saw something dirty. I couldn't sleep well last night, and I asked the doctor to prescribe a prescription to calm my nerves overnight before I barely fell asleep, and I woke up again today. Queen Mother, Miss I'm afraid it's ...... It's ......"
Liu Er didn't know whether to say it or not, she knew that these things were forbidden in the palace, but considering the young lady's body, whether it was useful or not, she still wanted to try this method, so it was quite difficult to block her words in her throat.
"It's nothing, but it doesn't hurt to say it." The Queen Mother saw that she had something to say.
Only then did Liu Er have the courage to say, "In the slave's hometown, this symptom is called soul loss." Children are timid and frightened by something. Just ask someone to call the soul immediately. When it came to the back, the little girl's voice became weaker and weaker, she knew that these were forbidden in the palace, and the queen mother's face became more and more solemn, so she became more and more unconfident in speaking.
After finishing speaking, the Queen Mother did not make a sound, and the room was quiet except for Sun Di's noisy voice. At this time, Liu Er was so nervous that she couldn't hear any other sounds, and even her vision was getting more and more blurred. The only thing ringing in my ears is the sound of my own heartbeat.
"Bold, you stinky girl, don't you know that these are forbidden in the palace? Don't slap your mouth yet! Father-in-law Qin immediately came up to teach Liu Er a lesson. (To be continued.) )
