Chapter 235: Two Things

Five days later, Su Shanyun's aunt received a letter from Su Shanyun, and after reading the letter, Mrs. Su exclaimed: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it!" ”

"What happened?" Ning Hao asked curiously.

"Shanyun is about to marry Second Master Yan at the beginning of the next year." Mrs. Su pointed to the letter and said to him.

"Huh?" Ning Hao's eyes widened suddenly.

"Who matched them?" Ning Hao then asked.

"They only invited the matchmaker to propose marriage after they fell in love with each other." Mrs. Su said.

"Huh? How could they ......" Ning Hao didn't say it explicitly, Second Master Yan is nearly thirty years old, Su Shanyun hasn't reached for it yet, are they really in love with each other?

"Don't you remember when Shanyun came to our house two years ago? They met that year, and Shanyun still thanked us in the letter, saying that we were their indirect matchmakers. Mrs. Su said with a smile.

"I really didn't expect that." Ning Hao touched his head and said.

"But now that I think about it, I think it was a foreshadowing. Think about it, didn't Second Master Yan dissolve his previous marriage contract at the end of last year? Even if it was because the county lord wanted to marry the second prince of North Korea, if the second master Yan refused to dissolve the marriage contract, they would have nothing to do, because the emperor didn't know about it at that time. From this point of view, Second Master Yan should already have someone he likes in his heart at that time. Ning Hao said again.

"Yes, and also, Shanyun will come to Yanfu as a guest every time he enters Kyoto, isn't this also a proof?" Mrs. Su said with great interest.

"Shanyun, this girl is amazing, at a young age, she can make people like Yan Erye who have seen the world fall under her pomegranate skirt." Ning Hao said sincerely.

"Maybe Second Master Yan likes her like this?" Mrs. Su said, putting her arm around him.

"That's for sure. Otherwise, with the talent and identity of Yan Erye, what kind of woman can't be found? The more Ning Hao spoke, the more excited he became.

Now that Ning Changrou is married, and Ning Changqing is far away in the capital, the couple has a lot of time to chat, so they can talk about anything for most of the day.

"Master, now we are close to the Yan family!" Mrs. Su said with a smile again.

"Well, Mrs. Lu is my cousin, and my cousin's daughter-in-law is my wife's niece, which is indeed even more lively when they return to Tianjin in the future!"

"yes, yes, in a few years, when they have children, it will be more lively."

"Look at you. How can you be happier than marrying your own daughter? ”

"I've always treated Shanyun as my daughter." Mrs. Su gave Ning Hao a blank look. Then he said: "I want to write a letter to let Shanyun's girl come to Tianjin to play, I haven't seen her for a long time, do you think it?" ”

"Well, you're lonely during the day anyway. It's better to just let her stay here for a few months. ”

So Mrs. Su immediately went back to her room to write a letter.

A few days later, Su Shanyun received a reply from her aunt.

However, because she had to rush the sketch during this time. So she wrote back to her aunt and said that she would probably visit them in Tianjin after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

…………………

On the evening of April 20th. Two imperial doctors from the Tai Hospital were secretly shot and buried under a pile of stones in the back alley less than five zhang away from the Tai Hospital.

When the people from the Tai Hospital found them in the early hours of the morning, they immediately reported to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

At this time, Shangshu of the Criminal Department had already arrived at the scene with people.

When the Metropolitan Procuratorate learned of this news, it immediately issued a city-wide arrest warrant and sent people to the scene to find evidence.

That morning, all the civil and military officials learned about it, so the whole hall was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.

Emperor Zhu Zhi personally inquired about the progress of the case from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple.

"Go back to the emperor. We found a handprint on the arrow of one of the deceased, and we are currently searching for the killer with this handprint. "Fu Dapeng, the imperial envoy of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, came out of the ranks.

"Well, we must close the case as soon as possible and give justice to the deceased." Zhu Zhi said.

"Yes." Fu Dapeng hurriedly responded.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has something to say." Situ Yuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, immediately came out of the line.

Zhu Zhi glanced at him and said, "Situ Aiqing, please speak." ”

"Last night, Tang Jiaben, the judge of the Tai Hospital, came to Wei Chen overnight, saying that two imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital had disappeared since dinner, and he immediately sent someone to report to the Du Cha Yuan, but the doorman of the Du Cha Yuan fell asleep on the table, and he couldn't wake up no matter how he screamed, so he had to run to find Wei Chen." Situ Yuan said.

The audience immediately booed.

Situ Yuan took the opportunity to say: "As a guard of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, how can he sleep while on duty? ”

The expression on Zhu Zhi's face suddenly became more serious than ever, and he looked at the left and right imperial envoys of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and asked, "Do you know the reason?" ”

Liu Chengze and Fu Dapeng looked at each other, not knowing how to answer, because they didn't know that there was such a thing.

But Liu Chengze hurriedly said: "Wechen immediately go back to understand the situation, if there is really something, Wechen will definitely punish him severely." ”

Yan Shi rushed out of the queue and said, "Why didn't Imperial Envoy Liu bring him in for questioning immediately?" Anyway, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is not more than a hundred zhang away from here. ”

"Just bring him here, I'll interrogate him myself." Zhu Zhi said.

As a result, Liu Chengze and Fu Dapeng didn't even have the opportunity to learn the truth of the matter in private.

But since it was the emperor who opened his mouth, they didn't dare to disobey, so they had to nod and say 'yes'.

Soon, the doorman was taken to the court.

Zhu Zhi asked him with a cold face about the matter.

He immediately knelt down and said, "Back to the emperor, Weichen didn't see anyone come yesterday, if someone comes, he will definitely report it immediately." ”

"Really? Don't you know that you're asleep on your desk? ”

The man was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Weichen didn't fall asleep when he was on duty last night, I hope the emperor will be clear." ”

Zhu Zhi was slightly stunned, and then shouted: "Bold, I made a mistake and didn't admit it?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Weichen really hasn't fallen asleep!"

"You don't know when you're asleep." Situ Yuan said.

"Back to the adult, the villain really doesn't have such an impression!"

"Tsk, it's ridiculous, I slept until I didn't even know what was going on. Lord Liu, Lord Fu, as the imperial envoys of the left and right, your management work is too inadequate, right? Situ Yuan squinted at the two of them and asked.

Liu Chengze did not respond to him, but said to Zhu Zhi: "Your Majesty, let Weichen ask him." ”

Zhu Zhi nodded.

So Liu Chengze asked the doorman: "You really didn't see anyone looking for you all night?" ”

"No, my lord, I swear, I really haven't seen any of them." The man hurriedly said.

Liu Chengze turned his head and asked Situ Yuan: "Lord Situ, may I ask what time your people went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate?" ”

"Three watches." Situ Yuan replied.

"Please be more specific."

"The second watch has just passed less than a quarter of an hour." Situ Yuan said.

"Okay, then I'll go back and check the situation." Liu Chengze said.

Originally, it was about the case of the imperial doctor who was shot and killed, but now it has become a matter of talking about the dereliction of duty of this doorman.

The hall was full of people, each with his own thoughts.

Zhu Zhi said in a deep voice: "Liu Aiqing, I limit you to find out the truth of the matter within one day, and for the sake of justice, I will send the right attendant of the Criminal Department to supervise." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Liu Chengze responded.

Yan Jinxuan, who was watching all this, wanted to speak and stopped, but he already had some answers in his heart. He didn't want to do much, but he knew that this matter was likely to cause the Metropolitan Procuratorate to fall under the control of the Yan Party, so he couldn't sit idly by. After a few deliberations, he decided to talk to Liu Chengze privately after retiring from the court. (To be continued......)

PS: Dear friends, the second shift is coming. The third watch is around 12 o'clock.
