Chapter 0336: Secret Investigation
Baoyu and a group of people were drinking excitedly, Xing'er came, telling Jia Lian that he had some urgent things to do tonight, so he wouldn't come, and told them not to wait, and when he had time in the future, Jia Lian would invite them back. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xing'er was originally Jia Lian's little servant, and after Jia Lian came back this time, he took him with him to summon him.
Several people had long forgotten about Jia Lian, and as soon as Xing'er said it, they remembered that there was such a thing as Jia Lian. However, Jia Lian didn't come, but they were just convenient.
This drink is more than an hour. It was almost time for the day to disperse.
Xue Pan still didn't give up, and he was going to send plum blossoms. Lamei pretended to excuse herself a few times, pretending to be helpless, and still asked Xue Pan to send it.
Baoyu drank too much, but didn't say anything. Jia Rong and Jia Huan saw that Xue Pan was cheeky and wanted to send plum blossoms, and they couldn't help but feel a little jealous. It's just that because of the past, it's really hard to come out.
But in his heart, he was dissatisfied with Xue Pan.
"Look at it, Brother Xue has to send it himself, we want to go, he won't let it, it's okay usually, but at this time, it's a little unrighteous."
Jia Huan vented.
"Xue Da Fool is like this, he likes to eat alone. In the end, it's not our Jia family's people, and their hearts always grow outward. Don't care, though. Didn't the plum blossom say that it would come tomorrow, and we will send it tomorrow, and when the time comes, see what else he Xue Da Fool says. ”
Jia Rong had actually made plans in his heart a long time ago, but he was not in a hurry. Besides, whether Xue Pan can do it tonight is not certain.
"So you can send it tomorrow, and I will send it the day after tomorrow. With good things, we always have to be wet with rain and dew. ”
"Okay, that's fine."
After Jia Rong finished speaking, she greeted Baoyu, and the three of them returned home in a daze.
Let's say that Xue Pan sent the plum blossom to the inn, and he thought that he would take the opportunity to go in, so as to take advantage of it.
Although she plans to use a few of them, she will let them easily get her hands on who she is. It's so easy to get started, if you drive them to do something in the future, where will they still be so happy?
So he didn't let Xue Pan in, but he wanted to refuse to take a break, so he always held Xue Pan in his hand. Say some ambiguous good words, so that Xue Pan will not succeed, and he will not die.
After a while, he twisted Xue Pan's face and entered the inn by himself. Leaving Xue Pan happy for a while, he went back full of hope. I feel that next time, if I work harder, I may be able to take down the plum blossoms.
Jia Lian really has something to do tonight and can't leave, because he has to meet Jiang Shilang.
At this time, the two met at a tavern called Cheng Ji at the end of Hat Alley.
Jiang Shilang did not wear an official uniform today, nor did he wear his daily Confucian shirt, but wore a horse coat that businessmen often wear. It looks like a walking businessman.
Under normal circumstances, a Beijing official like Jiang Shilang was not allowed to have private contact with officials from other places.
Although the imperial capital is calm on the surface, secretly, the yamen's catchers and eyeliners, and the court's brocade army, are all full of eyeliner.
I don't think it's anything, but maybe when, the report of what I did will go to the desk of a secret boss.
If it is a high-level official, these reports may be on the emperor's desk. Even if you really don't do anything wrong, it's taboo to just chat and drink and talk about Fengyue together.
Jia Lian and Wei Ruolan can also return home and wander around the imperial capital in the name of being assigned by Jia Min to come back to escort the coffins of the fallen soldiers.
If a landlord like Jia Min was not summoned by the emperor, he would not have been able to come back at all. Therefore, although Jia Min also wants to come back, he still can't leave Bukui in the end, but can only honestly guard there.
Eating wine is just a name, Jia Lian and Jiang Shilang only symbolically drank two glasses of wine, and Jiang Shilang said goodbye and left. left a cloth bag for Jia Lian.
As soon as Jiang Shilang left, Wei Ruolan came in, and at this time, the two of them began to eat quickly, and they didn't even drink wine. After settling the bill, I went to an inn.
This is the inn that the two of them have set up since yesterday.
I went back to the house and lit the candles, opened the cloth bag brought by Jiang Shilang, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone had already been prepared, so I began to copy it quickly.
This copy was done overnight, and it was not until eight o'clock in the morning that it could be copied.
After washing their faces slightly, the two took the cloth bag and went out, and came to the Cheng Ji tavern in Hat Hutong.
As usual, Wei Ruolan was outside to control the wind, and Jia Lian went in and asked for a few things early.
After a while, Jiang Shilang came, still dressed like last night.
When eating breakfast, he took back the cloth bag brought by Jia Lian, and left another cloth bag to leave.
After Jia Lian and Wei Ruolan returned to the inn, they fell asleep and began to copy the things sent by Jiang Shilang again. Until the evening when the transcription was completed. Like yesterday, I went to Cheng Ji Tavern, met Jiang Shilang, and sent back the package.
This time, no new packages were brought, and so far, everything they wanted to copy had been copied.
The two of them had a relaxing meal this time, and then returned to the inn to catch up on sleep.
What they copied was a dossier sent by Jiang Shilang. These files were stolen by Jiang Shilang from the register of the Criminal Department. It is the file of the Xinyou Kechang case of that year.
The reason why the two and Jiang Shilang did this thing is also related to the fact that when they were in Bu Kui, Jiang Shilang went to Luowanzi Guanzhuang, that is, Bu Kui Experimental Farm, to banquet Jia Min.
On that day, the two walked by the river and reached an understanding on Jiang Shilang's impeachment of Jia Min.
After returning to Guanzhuang, in the courtyard, I saw a person.
This person is the sound of flower rain that often goes crazy and pretends to be stupid.
Because he didn't make trouble in those days, he was released from the hut. However, he was not allowed to go out of the yard either.
The sound of the rain was quiet, and there was nothing to do. Every day, I also help Mr. and Mrs. Cervante with some work.
Unexpectedly, Hua Yusheng was taken aback when he saw Jiang Shilang, and then scolded Jiang Shilang. scolded him for being corrupt and perverting the law, and handled an unjust case that year.
It turned out that the two knew each other. In the Xinyou Kechang case that year, Jiang Shilang was one of the organizers.
After locking up Hua Yusheng again, Jiang Shilang talked to Jia Min about the Xinyou Kechang case that year.
As the person who handled the case back then, Jiang Shilang actually had a lot of questions about the Xinyou Kechang case. He is actually very sympathetic to the people who have been convicted for this, and he has always felt a little guilty over the years.
In Jia Min's small talk with Jiang Shilang, there was a detail that caught Jia Min's attention.
According to Jiang Shilang, the Xinyou Kechang case that year was probably related to Ludong Academy.
However, the clues about the Deer Cave Academy, halfway through the investigation, were broken. The reason is that the person concerned suddenly fell ill and died.
The reason why it is related to Ludong Academy is related to the dispute between the north and the south of the scientific expedition that year.
The north is the township test of the imperial capital Shuntianfu, and the south is the township test of Jinling Yingtianfu.
These two township examinations were the two most powerful township examinations in Wenju at that time.
The people who passed the two township examinations were also the candidates with the most strength to impact the Jinshi when they participated in the examination.
Almost every year, the North and South Jinshi have to be promoted to more than half of the total number of Jinshi.
Most of the time, the number of people in Nanyu is the largest.
It was precisely because of the Xinyouke Field Incident that almost all the troops in the South were wiped out that year, and the North won a complete victory.
Among the lifters in Beifu, the majority of them are from Ludong Academy, and their strength is also the strongest, and those who have won the first and second grades are basically from Ludong Academy.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the dispute between Ludong Academy and Nanyu in the imperial examination in Xinyounian.
Over the years, the students from Ludong Academy have been full of peach and plum all over the world, forming a force to be reckoned with in officialdom.
Ludong Academy happens to be the Luo family. The representative of the Luo family today is Luo Hanlin, a student of the Hanlin Academy, and his uncle, Luo Qihua, a scholar of the Military Machinery University.
When the Xinyou Kechang case occurred, Luo Hanlin's father Luo Qiping happened to be the secretary of the criminal department, and Luo Qihua happened to be the secretary of the ministry.
Judging from the later facts, Ludong Academy is indeed the biggest winner of the Xinyou Kechang case. Further, it makes sense to say that the Luo family is the winner of the Xinyouke case.
In terms of motives, Ludong Academy also has a motive to attack Nanyu.
In fact, when Jiang Shilang was handling the case, he did find traces of Ludong Academy's meddling in it. Because the two people who reported the fraud in Nanyu used to study at Ludong Academy. Later, I went to Jinling and participated in the local scientific expedition.
As he pursued the two men further, one of them died of a violent illness and the other went missing.
The clue was broken at this point, and later the upper authorities were not very concerned about tracking down this clue, and the emperor repeatedly urged him, so the case was closed in a hurry.
The reason why Jiang Shilang told Jia Min these things was because Jia Min forgave him, and second, he felt that Jia Min had nothing to do with the Xinyou Kechang case. And that was an old case more than ten years ago.
Speaking of this matter, it was just because of the guilt for Jia Min, and the guilt for Hua Yusheng and others.
Jia Min has nothing to do with the Xinyou Kechang case, but he has something to do with Ludong Academy and the Luo family.
When he first promoted Hanyu Pinyin in Liujiazhuang, Ludong Academy used to do tricks in it.
Later, the bus and carriage project was also driven by Luo Hanlin behind the scenes, partnering with Niu Jizong and them to transfer it to Rongguofu.
The reason why Baochai came to Bukui was also because Luo Hanlin was bad behind his back and tricked Mei Hanlin into proposing to the Xue family. Luo Hanlin also bewitched others, trying to disintegrate the alliance of the four families of King Jia Shixue through marriage.
Fortunately, Gu Panpan reported to Baochai in time, and Baochai was warned in advance and fled to Bukui.
Jia Min has already arrived in Bukui, and there is no direct threat to the Luo family, and the Luo family is still unrelenting.
Trying to disintegrate the alliance of the four major families is an intensified means of upgrading, which shows that the Luo family has no tendency to give up at all.
It was in this situation that Jia Min had to consider launching a counterattack against the Luo family.
