Chapter 105: White Lies
"Well, let's not talk about that. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Nangong Tian changed the topic and said, "Regarding the four people you brought back, you must also have more snacks, stare more, and pay attention to their behavior." In addition, it is necessary to continue to maintain a high degree of vigilance on this matter, and not to be careless. Although the hands behind the scenes will not be revealed immediately, they must be kept an eye on at all times. I don't want a poisoning case like this to happen again, Yongnian, you know what I mean, right? ”
"Hmm. I understand. Wei Yongnian nodded lightly and replied, "Old lady, please rest assured." This poisoning case will not happen again, this is the first and last time, I assure you. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on what happens next. ”
"I've always been relieved that you're in charge of these things." Nangong Tian said, "The rest of the matter will be entrusted to you." Yongnian, you have worked hard. ”
"Old lady, Yongnian should do these things, it's not hard." Wei Yongnian said, "If the old lady has nothing to do with you, I'll go and get busy, and you can sleep for a while at noon." Rest and rest, don't get heat stroke when it's hot. After a while, I will ask Haisheng to cut some watermelon for you to prepare, and when you are hot, you will eat some watermelon to relieve the heat. ”
"Okay." Nangong Tian nodded slightly. After speaking, Wei Yongnian went out.
……
……
Not long after Qi Runben posted the announcement, the people of Nancheng suddenly rejoiced, as if they were celebrating some grand festival, and cheered happily, "Elder Qingtian has finally sought justice for us!" "Those who poisoned and poisoned the people will finally be corrected!" “……。”
The officials reported the voices of these people to Qi Runben one by one, and Qi Runben thought to himself while listening: "It seems that the people's side is in the past, as long as no one has to pursue this case, when it is time to ask for the beheading, the matter of stealing beams and changing pillars will finally be over, hey, I really haven't done anything in the past two days but have done all this kind of gambling, and the officials are regarded as gamblers." If anyone dares to believe this, even I myself will not dare to believe it. ”
On the other side, the four people who were secretly detained lived a very hard life, every day and every night, they would hear bursts of roars from the back mountains from time to time, and more importantly, this roar was not a sound but a variety of them, every day from 100 days to night from time to time like that chorus, so that these big men had different degrees of fear in their hearts, plus the family also warned them: "Don't think about leaving here, If it weren't for the special person to pick it up, no one would be able to leave here alone, and if you insisted on breaking into this forest alone, your life would be very worried. Because there are still many behemoths in this forest, if you bump into them, whether they will be alive is the biggest question. Just this sentence, coupled with the roar of those beasts, made these people completely dispel the idea of fleeing while they were unprepared. After all, there is only one life, even if it is said to be bold, it can only be eighteen years later, who doesn't cherish it?
When this announcement was posted, Nangong Xue learned about the situation from Kong Haoyu, but she was not only curious about the judgment of the case so quickly, but what made her even more curious was that the speed of the conclusion of this case was really fast enough, and she always felt that there was something else in it, even though Kong Haoyu said: "Since the case is closed, it is a turning page, and the business is slowly returning to its usual state, so no matter what way you think about it, I don't want to put too much energy into this case." Hearing Kong Haoyu's words, she thought about it again and again, and in her heart she still couldn't get over this hurdle. After hesitating for a long time, she still decided to go to Wei Yongnian to ask.
As soon as she got home, she met Wei Yongnian who was going to the back mountain, Nangong Xue became suspicious, she hurriedly chased after her and asked, "Uncle Wei, where are you going?" This direction seems to be going to the back mountain, right? Don't you rarely go to the back mountains? Why are you going to the back mountain today? Why go? ”
“…… Well. Under Nangong Xue's series of questions, Wei Yongnian quickly sorted out his thoughts and replied respectfully, "Yo, why did Xiaoxue come back so early today?" It's not like your style. You're right, this direction is indeed going to the back mountain, of course, if there is a demand, you will go to the back mountain, who will go if there is no demand, don't you say? It's not that I'm idle today, thinking about going to the back mountain to practice my hands, otherwise it's not a good thing for me to have my hands. ”
"So, Uncle Wei is going to the back mountain to practice?" Nangong Xue glanced at Wei Yongnian a little like the wind passing through her ears, and said lightly, "Then you can pay more attention, the 'good friend' I domesticated in the back mountain can't be hurt, and your subordinates should also pay more attention to their mercy, I don't want me to have to bandage them collectively tomorrow, then I will be very distressed." ”
"Xiaoxue, you really care enough." Wei Yongnian said with a sad face, "Any one of your friends will make my legs weak with fright, and if you slap me casually, you will either die or be disabled, from what angle do you think I will hurt your friends?" Why don't you care about whether this old bone of mine will be shot to death by your friend if you are not careful? I've never seen you care about our lives and safety over the years, but every time you are afraid that we will hurt your friends if we go to the back mountains to practice. I really don't know why you think that? ”
“……。” After listening to Wei Yongnian's complaint, Nangong Xue looked at Wei Yongnian with a smile, and replied with a forced smile, "Uncle Wei, I care so much about my friends, it's not because you are all excellent in martial arts, aren't you just afraid of what if." If you think I care too little about you, you can understand me more, and I can't do it. ”
“…… Ay. After listening to Nangong Xue's words, Wei Yongnian couldn't help but sigh helplessly and said, "Anyway, you have something to prevaricate us at any time, and I don't know who you learned these from." It's really not good to learn. ”
"Uncle Wei, you are serious about this, and I don't like to listen to it, why don't you study well, I have lived in this mansion since I was a child, don't I spend most of my time at home? Isn't it also in the eyes of this family to learn what to learn? Will I still have the opportunity to go outside and not study? Nangong Xue said forcefully, "Do you think what I said is right?" ”
“……。” Wei Yongnian lowered his head, looked at Nangong Xue with an innocent face, and said while sighing, "Okay, okay, what you say is right, I won't argue with you here, I can't talk to you when you were young, I can't afford to mess with you with your sharp teeth, if you have nothing to do, I'll leave, and I'll hurry up and practice while I'm idle now." If it's a hot day, drink water and rest. After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
"Alas, Uncle Wei, don't be in a hurry to leave, I still have something to ask you." Nangong Xue hurriedly chased after him, grabbed Wei Yongnian's shirt and said, "It was just idle just now, don't take it to heart." Let me ask you something, why do I think something is wrong with this case? And the verdict is so fast, and the case was closed in less than half a month, which is a bit faster than I can adapt to. ”
"How?" Wei Yongnian turned around and asked curiously, "According to what you mean, it should be slower, right?" But no matter how you look at it, it's not slow, it's a little half a month to handle a well-documented case, which is normal in all dynasties, but it can't be slow if you want to. Unless it is unfounded, it may drag on for a longer time, as long as half a year and a year, what are you suspicious of? Besides, if you have evidence to do it quickly, it will be an explanation to the victimized people, and it will be good for you, at least you don't have to carry this black cauldron. Isn't that great? I didn't feel anything wrong with this verdict, and I didn't feel uncomfortable. ”
"But ......." Even if Wei Yongnian said this, Nangong Xue still felt a kind of unspeakable embarrassment in her heart, and said hesitantly, "I still feel that something is not right." It's impossible to say exactly what is wrong. I just want to ask you and find the answer. ”
"Alas, my eldest lady." Wei Yongnian gently put his hand on Nangong Xue's head and said comfortingly, "According to my meaning, you just think too much, you have been like this since you were a child, if you don't get to the bottom of everything, you will never look back if you don't get to the bottom of everything, and you will never look back if you don't understand it clearly, for this case, the only thing I can say is that I just told the government what I talked about and investigated, and then the government made a fair judgment on this case with its own judgment, and the arrest of these people and the collection of evidence are all done by the government itself, I just got up and asked for directions, and the rest of the screening of the case or something has nothing to do with me, the interrogation is all a matter of the government, I didn't interfere, as for what I found, I have explained it to you, I didn't hide it, think about it, if you are the government, what questions will you have about this? ”
“……。” Hearing Wei Yongnian's reassuring words, Nangong Xue lowered her head, was silent for a moment, and then nodded slightly, "...... Listening to what you say, there is some truth to it, the government decides the case quickly or slowly, we can't get involved, let alone under our control, in the final analysis, I am also the defendant in this case, and now I am wronged, I should be happy, if I have doubts about this result, it is really a bit of a bull's horn. Well, now that this is the case, I won't ask more, and I won't doubt it, anyway, I've cleared my grievances, what else should I suspect? If it really has something to do with us, then I really can't accept it, but now that the innocence has been returned to us, it seems that it is the best result. ”
"Not really." Wei Yongnian said in a word, "It's great that you finally figured it out, now that you've figured it out, then there's nothing to do with me, right?" Can I go? ”
“……。” Nangong Xue looked at Wei Yongnian silently and nodded slightly, "...... Well, there's nothing to do, you can go to practice, Xiaoxue won't delay your practice time. ”
"Okay, then I'll go." Wei Yongnian replied, "Don't think too much about the hot weather today, it's not good for your health, and pay attention to heatstroke, I've asked Haisheng to cut watermelon for you, you can see it when you go back to the house, eat some watermelon to relieve the heat and rest." Don't always think about what you have and don't have. Thinking too much will only add infinite troubles to yourself, you see? ”
“…… Well. Nangong Xue nodded and said, "Understood." Then thank you Uncle Wei for your concern. ”
"Since you're fine, I'm leaving. I'll take you out to play and go shopping when I have time, haven't you been shopping for a long time? Take you out and buy some novelties and come back to play. All right? Wei Yongnian said soothingly.
"Okay!" As soon as Nangong Xue heard that she was going out shopping, her previous dull mood suddenly took a 180-degree turn, and she became extremely good, and said, "Then this is what you said, don't regret it when the time comes." ”
"Look at what you say." Wei Yongnian replied, "A gentleman is hard to chase after a horse, how can my dignified seven-foot man be the kind of master who doesn't talk much?" Don't worry, I'll definitely take you to play. It also saves you from thinking nonsense at home. Okay, aside, I have to hurry up and practice. Let's talk about it later. After speaking, Wei Yongnian waved his hand and turned around and went to the back mountain.
Nangong Xue stood in place and watched Wei Yongnian.
