Since he had a suspicious target, the next day, Shen Li ordered his subordinates to keep an eye on the two of them and inquire about all the news of the two in the past six months, one is Yan Juren, the staff member of the prefect's yamen, and the other is He Xisheng, the head of the He family in Songjiang. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yan Juren here, the scandal with the little widow in the back street of the prefect, because he never deliberately hid it from people, inquired about it at once; On He Xisheng's side, except that there was no help after the Shen family's accident, there didn't seem to be anything wrong.

However, the news that the prefect's yamen spent a lot of money to buy it seemed to verify Shen Rui's previous guess.

The person who first sued Shen Qi is dead, it is the in-laws next to the Shen family's five rooms, and they live in the back street of Shenjiafang, but they are a prodigal and ruined settlement, because they love gambling and lose all their family business, and the house is sold to their wives and daughters.

As for the person who first sued Shen Jun, it was not someone else, it was the scholar next to Shen Dong who washed ink, not a servant of the Shen family, but a person who was added in the capital in the early years, this time he lost his little master in his hometown, I don't know if he really suspected Shen Jun, or he was afraid of taking the responsibility and deliberately bit Shen Jun, so he took the opportunity to sue Shen Jun. It's just that he is not a good citizen, and "suing the master as a slave" is a big crime, and he will be put in prison after the case is concluded.

To say that after listening to Shen Rui's speculation, Shen Li's suspicion of Shen Xisheng was only five points, and now it has become seven points. A bad gambler, a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old, if no one instigates him, how will he know where the gate of the yamen will open?

It's just that no amount of suspicion is just suspicion, and without evidence, it is impossible to uncover He Xisheng's wolf ambitions.

"Count the days, the Qin mission is coming, I just hope that it is Liu Ge's old man." Shen Li took the account book that recorded Zhao Xianzhong and said to Shen Rui.

Only Liu Gelao's people can stand on a neutral position and dispose of the Songjiang prefect without fear, neither selling favors nor avoiding suspicion because of different camps.

Whether it is for the Shen family or for the sake of the hometown fathers, Zhao Xianzhong's cancer cannot be left. It's just that He Xisheng wants to use Shen Li as a gunman, and he underestimates him too much, since he is sent by Qin, how to "investigate the case" and how to "close the case" is naturally Qin's business. What the Shen family did here was to let Qin Cha find out what should be checked.

Although he was delayed for a long time because of his beauty, Yan Juren still knew about the alliance between the two Shen He families.

The next day, when he returned to the prefect's yamen, Zhao Xianzhong invited Yan Juren to speak.

Compared with Zhao Xianzhong's slight flusteredness, Yan Juren was much calmer when he knew that the two might join forces. He was ordered to come to Songjiang, firstly to make money, and secondly, to seek people.

It is true that the Shen family is the first target, but by the way, it is also a credit to subdue the He family. After all, the boss of the He family is now a household servant, a powerful official of the six ministries, and if he stays up for a few more years, he can't say that he can get a book. This one alone is enough to use it. Now that the officialdom of Jiangxi is within the sphere of influence of King Ning, there will be more opportunities to deal with the household department in the future, and it is always a good thing for the household department to have its own people.

Zhao Xianzhong was warned by Shen Li, and he already had other thoughts, hoping that Yan Juren could also give him a useful idea, and he didn't want Yan Ju to be humane: "Congratulations to Dong Weng, congratulations to Dong Weng, Shen He The two families are united at this time, and they are helping Dong Weng solve a big problem." ”

Zhao Xianzhong couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "Yumu, what are you talking about?" ”

Yan Juren touched his short beard and said: "The Qin mission is coming, even if Dong Weng has the intention to blame the Shen family for all the troubles, there is insufficient evidence and many doubts; If the He family is involved, it will be different. The Shen family only has three rooms in business, and it has fallen apart because of the previous separation; The He family is different, I heard that the He family has raised more than a dozen boats selling cloth, along the Yangtze River, directly to Shuzhong. The second master of the He family has traveled extensively, and many people from the three religions and nine streams have become guests of the He family. Compared with people like the Shen family, who are full of scholars, the He family seems to be more suspected of being a 'gangster'. If the two families collude, it will not be difficult to cause trouble. ”

It sounds reasonable, but it's crooked, but Zhao Xianzhong has always been soft-eared, and he actually thinks it does make sense. Before, because I was worried about "turning enemies into friends" with the Shen family or forming an alliance with the He family, it was just a good strategy, and it was of course better to have other ways to protect myself. It's just that unlike the Shen family, there is a waiter in the He family in Beijing, and Zhao Xianzhong can't help but hesitate: "In this way, wouldn't it offend He Shilang?" ”

Yan Juren smiled lightly: "If it is a waiter, Dong Weng should be afraid of one or two; If it's not a squire, there's nothing to fear. ”

When these words came to Zhao Xianzhong's heart, he nodded hurriedly and said, "What Yumu said is exactly." ”

In the end, he felt that Yan Juren was agreeable, thinking that he didn't return all night last night, Zhao Xianzhong said with a little joke: "Yumu seems to be in a particularly good mood today, it seems that last night was worth the trip." ”

Yan Juren coughed lightly: "Dong Weng said he laughed." ”

"Tsk, Yangzhou beauties are famous all over the world, Yumu was born in Yangzhou, the mayor is in Yangzhou, and they are all over the world, but they can be fascinated by Zhang's, which shows that Zhang's is not an ordinary beauty. The rain curtain you have to please the beauty, but also don't be the reckless man who doesn't understand the amorous feelings, and give some hairpin rings and gold beads. Staying outside, in the end, it is better to be close to the side as soon as possible. Zhao Xianzhong smiled and suggested.

There was an intelligence point outside, and he couldn't move to the prefect's yamen, so Yan Juren said: "She is the daughter of a good family, she followed me so inexplicably, in the end, I wronged her, and at the end of the year, I will send a letter to Neiko to inform the family, and then I will adopt the gift after the year." ”

When the matter of Songjiang is over in half a year, it doesn't matter whether you accept it or not.

Is this to let the Zhang family keep at least one year of filial piety? Zhao Xianzhong disagreed. If the husband is mourned for less than a month, he hooks up; Just after 100 days, they rolled together, and that Zhang was not a chaste woman. It's just that Yan Juren is a scholar in the end, and he is willing to be poor and exquisite, so Zhao Xianzhong doesn't have much to do, and he arranges it himself. He still bothered a lot to think about how to entertain and how to reply thoughtfully.

He Xisheng is here, since he is weak-hearted, he naturally asks people to stare at the movements of Shen Li and Shen Rui brothers. It's just that the people arranged by Shen Li are all fresh faces from the capital, and they don't go in and out of the sect's side, so there is nothing that anyone who called He Xisheng to find anything.

At this time, He Xisheng's heart was a little more steady. He knew that Shen Li was waiting for Qin to come down, but in his heart, he wondered why his brother's family letter had not come down. According to the eldest brother's temperament, after ordering the will of the Qincha, he would first send someone back to Songjiang to deliver a letter, and inform him of the news of the Qincha in detail, so that he could prepare early, but this time it was a long time, and there was still no letter from home.

Although He Xisheng did not come out, because his eldest brother was a Beijing official, he naturally paid attention to the movements in the capital and knew that the three elders of the cabinet had their own positions. He naturally looked forward to the people on Li Ge's side coming down, having an incense relationship with the He family, and taking care of everything; Or the people on Xie Ge Lao's side, for the sake of the face of the Shen He family's in-laws, they will not be too embarrassed by the He family; The most worrying thing is that when Liu Ge Lao's people come down, how they will behave is uncertain.

Whether it is the Shen family, the He family, or the prefect's yamen, they all thought that the Qincha would be the old man of the three pavilions, and they would set up a guard of honor when they came to Songjiang, so they each sent people to wait on the dock, waiting for the news of the official ship, but they didn't know that the Qincha had changed the civilian ship a few days earlier, and now he had entered Songjiang City.

In Matsue Castle, even after two months, the burned city walls and blackened shops all bear traces of "unrest and rebellion". The original prosperous and wealthy mansion has caused many merchants to evacuate due to such a disaster, and the shops on the street are still closed for three or four percent. The streets are deserted, and there is no one who has not been able to ease up in three or two years.

Zhang Yong is the first time he has come back to Songjiang, and he doesn't feel profound; The other person lived in Songjiang and couldn't help but sigh.

Both of them were wearing regular clothes, so they naturally changed their officialdom titles, and Zhang Yong said in a low voice: "How many of the excerpts do you think the Songjiang Prefect has come true?" ”

That's right, this time the new emperor secretly appointed the messenger is none other than Wang Shouren, who is in the military department. Wang Hua was the teacher of the new emperor's East Palace, and he did not stand in line between the three pavilion elders, so he naturally won the trust of the new emperor. For Wang Hua's son Wang Shouren, the new emperor also has a lot of favor. Just to prevent the old Sange from "making trouble", this secret will of the Qin Cha is receiver, and he did not understand the Ministry of Rites and the Cabinet, so no one knew about it.

The little emperor is proud of his own pride, and he also believes that his vision will not look at the wrong person. Although the days of going out of the palace at will without worry are gone due to different identities, he still has not forgotten Shen Rui, a "friend" outside the palace. Now that Songjiang is in trouble and the Shen family is in trouble, since he knows that Shen Rui has returned to his hometown, he naturally will not let others "bully" Shen Rui.

As for Zhao Xianzhong's words about framing the Shen family, the little emperor didn't believe a word, the rabbit still didn't eat the grass by the nest, the children of the Shen family were all in the capital, and there were two champions to support the façade, such a gentry family who had been eunuchs for generations, even if they were crazy, they would not collude with the Japanese to cause trouble in their hometown. Such an act is no different from digging up a grave.

Zhang Yong was the new emperor's companion when he was in the East Palace, and he had never seen Shen Rui and had heard of Shen Rui's name, so he took a position when he talked to Wang Shouren before. Wang Shouren heard the maintenance of the Shen family in his words, although he couldn't think of it for a while, it was not good to hide his relationship with Shen Rui, so he directly said the teacher-student relationship between the two. Zhang Yong suddenly realized, and then he understood that the emperor chose Wang Shouren as the Qincha, not just because of Wang Hua.

The two have the same goal, protect the Shen family from being framed, investigate the truth of the chaos, and get along and talk more harmoniously.

Zhang Yong asked at this time, not because he was suspicious of the Shen family, but because he was thinking about whether Zhao Xianzhong would falsify the casualty figures, after all, it seemed that Songjiang City was not lightly harmed.

Wang Shouren thought for a while and said, "The number of casualties in the city should be about the same, even if there are people outside the city. ”

After all, it is a shocking event, there must always be a messenger to inquire, the casualties in the city are traceable, and it is too risky to conceal and underreport, as for the casualties outside the city, it is naturally not counted in the statistics, and it is even more harmful to save data.

When Zhang Yong heard this, his face darkened: "This Zhao Xianzhong is really not a thing, is it true that the lives of people in the city are lives, and the people in the countryside are not people?" Check, let's check carefully, if he really conceals the casualties outside the city, the miscellaneous family can't spare him! ”

This father-in-law came from a village in the countryside under Baoding Mansion, and he couldn't stand the fact that people in the city bullied the countrymen, so he naturally couldn't stand Zhao Xianzhong's dignified prefect's discriminatory treatment of the people under his rule, so he was angry.
