Chapter 215: Lenient Treatment
"The money is recovered, after all, it is lost here by me, it is considered to be offset by merit and demerit, this case is still under investigation, and the case has not been closed yet, you don't have to worry too much, thinking that the Taishi has been loyal to the king for many years, and the sentencing will also remember the past merits of the Taishi"
Chang Zhiyuan was stunned and said, "Uncle Cheng means that the king will deal with this matter lightly?" ”
Cheng Minghu didn't dare to say too much, "Zhiyuan, the king's mind can't guess"
Chang Zhiyuan heard this, "Is it a light sentence, Uncle Cheng, can you? . . Can.. ”
"To find out the king's mouth?" Cheng Minghu thought about it and smiled, "Instead of going to visit the king, it's better to ask Shaoqing"
"Ask Shaoqing?" Chang Zhiyuan didn't understand, and said, "What's the use of asking Shaoqing about this?" ”
Cheng Minghu smiled slightly, "Don't underestimate Shaoqing, now he is looking at the king's face and doing things, Taishi is a first-class master, this matter is not judged by Shaoqing how he wants, and the king wants to nod, do you understand what I mean?" ”
Chang Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and calmed down, "Zhiyuan is really chaotic, and I haven't thought about it here at all, but this matter is not a trivial matter, even if the king has the heart to sentence lightly, Zhiyuan is worried that the king will be fair. ”
Cheng Minghu said, "In this way, I will find an opportunity to help the Taishi intercede, but it doesn't work, I can't guarantee you, but the case is clear at a glance, I'm afraid it's in vain, I heard that you have been to see the Taishi, have you told you anything?" ”
Chang Zhiyuan said with red eyes: "Dad, let me leave the city as soon as possible, and will intercede with the king to save my life before closing the case."
Cheng Minghu nodded and said, "This is also for your sake, I dare not guarantee anything else, let the king pardon you, I will definitely try my best to help you."
Chang Zhiyuan thanked him gratefully, what should have been said has already been said, Cheng Minghu picked up the teacup, and Chang Zhiyuan got up and said goodbye at the moment.
Cheng Minghu was sent to the door of the study before stopping to see Chang Zhi far away.
Seeing Chang Zhi far away, Xu Guangheng stepped forward and said, "Master, Chang Gongzi is here for the Taishi?" ”
Cheng Minghu glanced at Xu Guangheng and said, "Knowingly, he asked me to intercede with the king, hoping to leave Chang Yue's life on the Internet."
Xu Guangheng inquired, "Master, agreed?" ”
Cheng Minghu said with a smile, "I agreed, everyone knows that Chang Yue and I are mortal enemies, the most important thing to do now is to fall into the well, I will not do this, not only will I not fall into the well, but I will also do my best to protect the Taishi, so that the measurement can be displayed, and the most important thing is that the king will not be upset when he sees me."
Xu Guangheng said with a smile, "The master is thoughtful, the matter of the Taishi is indeed displeasing to Wang Shanglongyan, and going to the well at this moment will only make Wang Shang disgusted."
When the words fell, Xu Guangheng was worried and asked, "It's just that master, if the king really forgives, what will happen?" ”
Cheng Minghu is very confident in this, "Of course the pardon will be pardoned, if you don't want to pardon, why do you want Zhu Xingkong to investigate the case, this case is an iron case, what is the strength of the investigation, the king wants to protect the Taishi is also for the face of Beishu, and it is not good to do such a thing when the imperial master does such a thing after all."
At this time, Shen Zhenghe came over, holding a box in his hand, and he came to Cheng Minghu and said, "Prime Minister, the thing is ready"
Cheng Minghu didn't open the box to see, but just glanced at the box lightly and said, "Steward Xu"
"The Old Slave Is There"
Cheng Minghu said, "Give the box to the young master, let him give it to the princess"
Xu Guangheng took the box and said, "Yes, master"
Cheng Minghu glanced at Shen Zhenghe and said, "If it's okay, go with me to the hotel?" ”
Shen Zhenghe smiled and said, "Listen to it"
Before leaving, Cheng Minghu said to Xu Guangheng, "When I saw the young master, I said that I was angry and went to the hotel."
Xu Guangheng glanced at Cheng Minghu in surprise at the moment, only glanced at it, and then said, "Yes, master"
Chang Zhiyuan came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion and went directly to Dali Temple, and Zhu Xingkong was not surprised to see Chang Zhiyuan seeing him.
Chang Zhiyuan came to mean that Zhu Xingkong knew at a glance, Zhu Xingkong let out a long breath and said, "Chang Gongzi, taking the Taishi is a stolen person, you can be accommodating when you go to visit me, and that's all you can do, don't say anything if it's unnecessary."
"I know this" Chang Zhiyuan hurriedly said, "Lord Shaoqing, Zhiyuan can't speak, some words must be asked Shaoqing, if you say something wrong, Lord Shaoqing will bear with me."
Zhu Xingkong glanced at Chang Zhiyuan and said slowly: "Since you shouldn't say it, why are you asking?" ”
"Zhiyuan just wants peace of mind"
Zhu Xingkong sighed and said, "Chang Gongzi, please speak"
Chang Zhiyuan pressed his emotions and said, "Just came from the Prime Minister's Mansion, Uncle Cheng said that the king intends to give a light sentence?" ”
Zhu Xingkong raised his eyebrows and said sharply: "Don't die!" The king dares to guess! ”
Chang Zhiyuan knelt down in a panic and said, "Lord Shaoqing, Zhiyuan is just... ”
Seeing that Chang Zhiyuan was also pitiful, Zhu Xingkong didn't let Chang Zhiyuan finish speaking, "Get up"
Chang Zhiyuan got up and thanked him.
Zhu Xingkong said, "To be honest, I think the Taishi was framed, and the Taishi will never sit down and embezzle money, not only I believe in this, I believe that the king also has this mind, no matter how the money is indeed found in Juyazhai, to tell you the truth, the Taishi is guilty of this matter."
"Huh?! My father was wronged! ”
"If you are wronged or not, you will show evidence, and without evidence, this is an iron case"
"There is proof! I told General Fang about this, and General Fang seemed to have a suspicion at that time."
Zhu Xingkong said: "That is the case, what are you doing in Dali Temple?" Why don't you go to General Hefang to find evidence of the crime."
Chang Zhiyuan took out three gold leaves and pushed them in front of Zhu Xingkong, "Thank you Lord Shaoqing for your accommodation"
Zhu Xingkong looked at Chang Zhiyuan coldly and said, "Take it!" ”
"This..."
"Without this and that, I am accommodating to you not for this, but for believing in the character of the Taishi, take it, and don't come to see me until there is no evidence to prove the innocence of the Taishi" Zhu Xingkong asked the catcher to send Chang Zhiyuan away.
Some people can be sent away, some people can't be sent away, Cheng Qingwan can't be sent away, Cheng Weilian left from the hotel and returned directly to the Pawn Bureau, and became the Upper City Defense Division, originally there was no reason to stay in the Pawn Bureau, but the Pawn Office has not yet come up with a new order, and Cheng Weilian can still come if he wants to come or not.
Tuoba Yan's matter Cheng Qingwan now knows that if she doesn't find anyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she can only come to the Pawn Office to look for someone, and Cheng Weilian is really in the Pawn Office.
As soon as she saw Cheng Weilian, Cheng Qingwan immediately said urgently, "Why aren't you at home, what are you doing here instead of signing orders?"
Cheng Weilian didn't look stunned, his face was sullen and unhappy, and he couldn't respond, "Can't you come if it's not an order?" If you don't come here and don't want to go home, where can you go? ”
Seeing Cheng Weilian's face like this, Cheng Qingwan said, "Looking at you like this, it seems that what you heard is true?" ”
"Sister, if it's about the princess, it's true" There is no need not to admit that the matter has come to this point.
Cheng Qingwan said anxiously: "Why have I never heard you say such a big thing?"
Cheng Wei even said, "Say, say what you can do, I'm talking, I don't know she's pregnant"
Cheng Qingwan sighed gloomily, sat down and asked, "Dad, you know?" ”
Cheng Weilian nodded.
Cheng Qingwan asked with a dignified expression, "Did Dad say anything?" ”
Cheng Weilian was about to speak, when he saw Xu Guangheng enter and said, "Young master, it's not good, the old man rushed to the inn angrily!" ”
Xu Guangheng's wording made Cheng Weilian very uneasy, Cheng Weilian was afraid that Cheng Minghu would do something to Tuoba Yan, so he was in a hurry to get up at the moment Xu Guangheng stopped outside the door, Cheng Weilian glared at Xu Guangheng, "What are you doing!" Don't get out of the way yet."
Xu Guangheng held up the box in front of Cheng Weilian and said, "This is for the young master from the master."
Cheng Wei looked at the box for a while, "What's inside?" ”
Xu Guangheng's old face frowned and smiled: "How dare the old slave open it privately"
Cheng Weilian looked impatient, glanced at Xu Guangheng, took the box "troublesomely", opened it, and put the sachet inside.
"Sachets?" Cheng Weilian took it in his hand and saw that the style was fan-shaped and the color was pink, and when he saw pink, he knew that this sachet was not for himself, and men would not wear pink sachets.
Cheng Weilian didn't understand Cheng Minghu's intentions, "Steward Xu, what does Dad, what do you mean?" ”
Xu Guangheng smiled and said, "Young master, what do you don't understand, of course I want you to give it to the princess"
"For the princess?" This is strange, judging from Cheng Minghu's attitude, he doesn't have a good impression of the princess, so how can he prepare a sachet for him to give away?
Cheng Wei couldn't figure it out and asked, "Sister, is this your idea or father's?" ”
How could this be Cheng Qingwan's idea, Cheng Minghu has no reason to be so good to the princess, Cheng Qingwan stepped forward and took the sachet and smelled it, "It's thyme"
It is indeed thyme, thyme is not poison, from this point of view, Cheng Minghu seems to be accepting this daughter-in-law, Cheng Qingwan said, "I haven't prepared any sachets"
Cheng Qingwan asked Xu Guangheng, "Why did the master let the young master send the sachet?" ”
"This..." Xu Guangheng said, "The old slave doesn't know, that's what the old man ordered"
Cheng Weilian snatched the sachet back and said, "Oh, what's the matter with a sachet, just send it, Steward Xu, you dodge, I'm going to the hotel now."
