The layout takes time and energy, but when these have been prepared in advance, everything is much simpler, and the harem is safe and sound these days, but there are people in the previous dynasty who have suffered disasters at home. The only son of Si Tian's family, Cao Si Tian, has been investigated by the Criminal Department for reselling illicit salt, and he will be imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department and will be tried at a later date.

It is a felony to resell illicit salt, and this crime is afraid that Cao Dongliang will not escape death, because this Cao Dongliang is Cao Sitian's only son, Cao's mother is very fond of this family's only seedling, but recently, because of Cao Dongliang's **** to pray to God and worship Buddha, the bedroom is restless all day long, and his body has lost a lot of weight. Cao Sitian is a filial son, his only son committed such a big crime, he is exhausted, and now his mother is seriously ill and bedridden, which makes him even drag his body down.

This matter is investigated by the Criminal Department, if you want to save your son, you must only ask Qin Shangshu, but this Qin Shangshu has always been upright in the court, and this time the matter is also conclusive evidence, even if Cao Sitian wants to save his son, he is also bitter, and he has been very distressed by this matter recently. Cao Dongliang said that he had been deceived by someone, because he had deceived the profiteer and resold the illicit salt, but the so-called profiteer was now nowhere to be found, so Cao Dongliang had nothing to say.

Cao Sitian wanted to find Qin Tianhao several times, and he also wanted to get him to spare the rebel, but this Qin Tianhao had already known that he had this heart, so he deliberately avoided it, which made Cao Sitian have no choice, and in the end he could only move his mind to Qin Shujiu.

Qin Shujiu is the daughter of Qin Shangshu, if her daughter is willing to come forward and say a few good words, there is still room for maneuver in this matter. Cao Sitian will come to see him. Qin Shujiu had already expected this, but he didn't make a sound, but waited for Cao Sitian's request to see.

The Taishi Bureau is in charge of the celestial phenomena, surveying the celestial phenomena and sacred, and every month will enter the palace to face the saint, and this is the case today, because Li Qingzheng and Li Han can only wait outside the palace for the time being. Coincidentally, it was also in the Imperial Garden that I met a beautiful woman enjoying the flowers, because I saw the case of the rebel from a distance, and I came over.

It was by chance that he met my fair beauty, and after stepping forward to bow down, Cao Sitian got up at the signal of Qin Shujiu, and then said: "The minister has seen my fair beauty." Qin Shujiu said with a light smile: "Cao Sitian." He got up and saluted back, which can be regarded as a salute to Cao Sitian. Then he said: "Cao Sitian's entry into the palace today is His Majesty's decree?" After asking, Cao Sitian replied: "Back to the beauty." The minister will enter the palace every month, and His Majesty will explain the changes in the heavens. ”

Nodding his head, Qin Shujiu said, "I see." After the head of the chin was first understood, and then his face showed confusion, Qin Shujiu said: "Since it was summoned by His Majesty, how could Cao Sitian be here?" Cao Sitian replied: "Your Majesty is playing against Prince Han in the palace at this time. Because it was inconvenient to disturb Yu's father-in-law, he asked the ministers to walk around the imperial garden for the time being. ”

"It was originally what Father-in-law Yu meant. It seems that this game between His Majesty and Prince Han is about to come to an end. Although it is autumn in this palace, the lotus scene is still good, which is the meaning of Yu Gonggong, Cao Sitian is to see it. Hokko calms the mind. This is a little more to eliminate the boredom in my heart, so that Your Majesty can observe the celestial phenomena, lest this celestial phenomenon see something wrong and misunderstand the major affairs of the country, but it is not good. ”

Qin Shujiu's words seem to have a deep meaning hidden in his words, especially when mentioning He Kesan's upset anger, he took a look at it, Cao Sitian has been an official in the court for many years, and now when he listens to Qin Shujiu's words, he also understands that her words have a deep meaning, and after a little pondering, he also understands that he begged her to turn to Qin Shangshu to open a side and have a fruit, and immediately said: "The minister has done his best to investigate the celestial phenomena for Jiang Guo, even if he doesn't dare to look down on the celestial phenomena because of the mundane things in the mortal world." It's just that although this observation of the sky is a matter of touching the heavens, after all, the minister is also a mortal person, and even if he investigates sincerely, he will inevitably be involved in the vulgar feelings. ”

"If there is a vulgar feeling, it will definitely be useless to observe the heavenly phenomena, and Your Majesty will hand over this heavy responsibility to Cao Sitian is the ultimate trust in Cao Sitian, and Cao Sitian will also return to Your Majesty with all his heart. It's just that Cao Sitian said the same, Si Tian is a layman after all, how can this vulgarity be avoided, although I am immoral and incompetent, I also think about how to relieve His Majesty's worries all day long. If there is anything that can be helped, Si Tian can clearly say that as long as he can relieve His Majesty's sorrows, he will do his best. ”

Since Qin Shujiu had already opened his mouth, Cao Sitian, who had thought about it, responded with it, and immediately bowed and said: "If this matter is a beauty who is willing to come forward, the minister will definitely be grateful." ”

"Cao Sitian must not make this big gift." Busy motioning for Nanzhi to help Cao Sitian up, Qin Shujiu said, "Isn't there really something I can help with?" Cao Sitian replied: "If it is a beauty, there must be a turnaround." Qin Shujiu responded: "That is the case, then Si Tian said, wait for me to see if it can help." ”

After the words fell, Cao Sitian asked the Criminal Department to take Cao Dongliang into custody and inform him of all the incidents, and after the ceremony, he begged Qin Shujiu to pass on his intentions and go out, so that the upright Qin Shangshu could open up and let Cao Dongliang have a way out. Even if the two of them have the same official qualities, but if Qin Tianhao refuses to let go of this matter, Cao Sitian will not be able to do anything, and Cao Sitian also knows how heavy the sentence is for the crime of reselling illicit salt, and he does not dare to overstep the above person so as not to implicate himself.

Cao Sitian pleaded with my fair lady to see that the eighty-year-old mother at home was in prison and bedridden because of her grandson's imprisonment, but she heard that it was the crime of selling illicit salt, and Qin Shujiu was not good here, so he frowned and Qin Shujiu said: "I don't understand Cao Sitian's compassion, but this reselling of illicit salt is a big crime, if it really intercedes for Si Tian's father, I am afraid that it will not be easy for my father." Illegal salt and private tea is the foundation of the country, never touch privately, if it is touched, if it is not big or small, it is in the beheading, this case is small and good, it is just harming yourself, if the case is big, you must even bring your own family to be implicated. The one thing Cao Sitian said was really difficult to do. ”

"The minister also knows that this matter is difficult to do, but there is only such a rebel son in the minister's family, and the mother is very fond of him, if this rebel son really has something to do, I am afraid that the mother's body will not be able to hold it, and I vainly ask the beauty to see that the mother of the family is old, so that Qin Shangshu can open the net and go all out to hunt down the offender, and also reduce the responsibility for my son, so as to avoid death, it is not wanted."

"This ......"

Cao Sitian's words have come to this point, but it is not good for Qin Shujiu to refuse. It's just that this matter is really not easy to deal with, and it is also difficult for my fair beauties. It was to see that the beauty was in trouble, and Cao Sitian also knew that there was still a bit of a turnaround, so he said: "If the beauty helps this time, the minister will be grateful to Dade for the beauty today's help." ”

After a pause, Qin Shujiu looked back, and then asked lightly: "You must be grateful to Dade in the future?" Cao Sitian hurriedly said: "The minister must repay the beauty with all his heart." Seeing Qin Shujiu nodding slightly, he said lightly: "In fact, this matter is not without a turnaround. ”

This light speech seemed to make Cao Sitian see hope, and immediately asked: "What can a beauty do?" After thinking for a while, Qin Shujiu said: "It's true that my father is upright, but this upright person is also a little bad, that is, everything is about evidence." As long as the evidence is gone. No matter how upright it is, it can only be based on the legal theory of evidence. Besides, this case has always been investigated by the Criminal Department, and Cao Sitian also said that Ling Lang committed such a major incident because he was deceived by others, as long as the Criminal Department arrested this person and ambushed him. When the time comes, the facts will be clarified, and everything will come to light. Ling Lang was not only innocent, but even the disaster of prison was wronged. ”

Every word is so light. Cao Sitian also knew that this method was really good, but how the whole method was implemented also depended on Qin Shangshu's meaning. That's how Cao Si Tianjing was called, and he didn't reply immediately. Looking at Cao Sitian and not knowing what to think, Qin Shujiu then said: "The emperor once had a clear decree that the private salt and tea will shake the root of the country, if someone commits a private crime, it must be strictly investigated within a time limit, and if it can't find out the reason, the person arrested at that time will be the first offender in the case, and the beheading will not be spared." Ling Lang has been in prison for ten days, and if he doesn't think about arresting the first criminal, I'm afraid that this case will be decided. ”

Time is already pressing, if you want to save Cao Dongliang's life, you can only look at Qin Shangshu, Cao Sitian has no choice, and finally can only ask Qin Shujiu to intercede for the rebel. Since it was a continuation of the request, it was a clear response to Qin Shujiu's method, and this response made Qin Shujiu satisfied, and then nodded Qin Shujiu and said: "Cao Sitian is really a loving father, and it is really fortunate that Ling Lang can have this father, but with Cao Sitian's official behavior, it is wronged to think about Ling Lang." I will find a conscience to spread the word on a certain day, that is, I beg my father to investigate this matter thoroughly, and I will not let Ling Lang suffer this injustice in vain. ”

Qin Shujiu's words were answered, but the day was called Cao Sitian's warning, and he looked at her Cao Sitian and said: "Beauty, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, otherwise, ......"

"That's right." Before Cao Sitian's words were finished, he asked Qin Shujiu to interrupt on the way, but his words were completely unintentional, Qin Shujiu said: "By the way, Cao Sitian seems to have said that he will definitely hold this kindness in the future?" "Asking for someone is to owe a favor, Cao Sitian has long been clear, and now he sees Qin Shujiu and says this. After the response, Qin Shujiu replied, and then said with a smile: "To be honest, if Cao Sitian really has the heart to repay this kindness, he doesn't have to wait for the future, I really need Cao Sitian's help here." ”

Immediately, there was something called Cao Sitian to help, but it made him feel that he had entered the game early in the morning, if everything was coincidental, there must be tricks, but now his son's life is in the hands of others, even if he has doubts in his heart, he dare not say much, that is, he said: "What does the beauty need help from?" If it is within the power of the minister, he must do it with all his might. ”

"I'm not the one who likes to be strong, even if I open my mouth, it must be within Cao Sitian's power, not only within my ability, but also within my power."

"What's the matter?" After a moment's pause, Cao Sitian said: "What the beauty said is a celestial phenomenon. ”

The celestial phenomenon refers to the will of heaven, and if the celestial phenomenon means something like this, then someone in the palace will inevitably respond to this matter and suffer a calamity. Qin Shujiu's words are already clear, that is, she wants to use her own hands to get rid of who is in the palace.

Cao Sitian has no party or quarrel in his life, and he is to serve the emperor with all his might, and now Qin Shujiu has hit his mind on him, which makes Cao Sitian difficult. Unexpectedly, he didn't say anything, Cao Sitian shouldn't, he shouldn't be tight, Qin Shujiu had time to slowly consume, so he glanced at Nanzhi and motioned for her to pour tea for herself, and after eating the tea in the cup, Qin Shujiu said.

"It seems that I am embarrassed by this matter, but it doesn't matter, if it is difficult for Cao Sitian, it should not be, but the son of the Cao family is in accordance with the law. When Cao Gongzi was crowned a national talent, it was a pity that he was so young and let a traitor fall into such an unjust field. The old lady only has such a grandson, and the **** is all taken care of, and now the white-haired person has sent the black-haired person, I really don't know if the old lady's body may be able to hold it. ”

It was said softly, although there was regret in the words, but the clear meaning in the words was also straightforward, if he agreed, his son would be able to live, and the old lady would naturally be fine. But if you don't agree, I'm afraid that the family will have to hold two funerals in a row recently, and there is no need to express the grief at that time.

If it is the rebel son in the family, it is his own fate to break the law, and if he drags his old mother to accompany the rebel son to be injured and die, it will be his unfilial son's fault. At the moment, Cao Sitian was even more difficult, and how to decide between this thought.

The choice is the most difficult, Qin Shujiu is not good at forcing Cao Sitian, just sit there and wait, but during the waiting period, he still continued: "At this time, it is not difficult for Cao Sitian, but it is just a matter of giving His Majesty the truth, as long as Cao Sitian gives this truth to His Majesty, all the unfavorable testimony of Yu Linglang in the Criminal Department will disappear immediately, and as for the ruffian Zhou who caused Ling Lang to fall into such a fate, I can also guarantee that he can be taken into the Criminal Department immediately, and I have to make Gongzi innocent." ”

Having said this, it can be regarded as Qingming, but at that moment, Cao Sitian opened his mouth clearly and said: "You ......." Before he could spit out a word, Qin Shujiu raised his hand to stop him, and then said: "In my opinion, this matter is quite easy to choose, but Cao Sitian has thought about it?" If Lord Si Tian is not worried in his heart, I can guarantee again, we are one thing for another, and this matter is one thing for Ling Lang, and it will never make Lord Si Tian difficult in the future. ”

Qin Shujiu said that he would do it, and his attitude was so solemn that people had to believe it.

Qin Shujiu said clearly, there is no shortage of these deceitful people in the officialdom, if there is no party and no fighting, as long as you are above the court, it is impossible to maintain absolute loyalty, since everyone is contaminated with those in their hands, why not use it to save their son, Cao Sitian also made a decision at the moment, and then asked.

"That being the case, what kind of truth does the beauty want to know." (To be continued.) )
