"The thief is gone?"

The gloomy parting of the city gate came to an end, and in the room of a small inn by the city gate, two sneaky people were facing each other.

Tang Xian looked at the Lu family's carriage slowly driving back from the city gate at the window, a trace of cold resentment flashed in his eyes, but he asked to his side.

Yan Fang nodded: "Yes, Lord Tang." It is said that Yang Zhengzhi somehow, but he fell in love with this Xie Xiuqi and recruited him to go to Fucheng to take the special test. ”

"Phew, it's really a good fate, the little grandfather suddenly made a great achievement, and it was a person who won the Taoist chicken dog to ascend to heaven and made a fortune in the city. Even Xie Xiuqi, a waste, has been blessed by him, and he has been blessed by misfortune so far, it is really the sky without eyes! ”

"What did he do? He just set a fire and became the introduction of a little grandfather's meritorious service. ”

Yan Fang said indignantly, and a trace of intense jealousy flashed in her eyes.

Tang Xian suddenly reassured on the side: "Okay, Lord Yan, the matter has come to this point, what else can I do?" ”

Then, his expression became solemn: "The top priority is to do what we are waiting for well." As long as I turn over, how can I forget you? Even if I can't let you go back to officialdom, but you have me to take care of you, what are you doing? ”

Yan Fangleng sighed: "At this moment, I am also dismissed, except for a few henchmen, but I can't move those people in the Inspectorate." ”

Immediately, he was already looking at him: "Bah, those ungrateful people, they are respectful to me on weekdays, and once they are in trouble, they don't know what to ask and don't know, and they put all the blame on me, but they are cleared up faster than anything else!" ”

At the end, he began to curse indignantly.

"Aren't you the same?" Yan Fang was full of indignation, but Tang Xian also said coldly on the side.

"Lord Yan, don't forget that you were also disgraced and dismissed by Xie Xiuqi, and Lu Zihe has already been betrayed by you, even if you had a good relationship before, now, it is probably impossible for you to catch him again."

When Yan Fang was stunned, Tang Xian had already said coldly: "Others are leaving it out to keep their seats, but what are you doing in front of me today?" Others don't know, I don't know you yet? You didn't fall from the sky, the Inspectorate! ”

"Back then, weren't you transferred from the county government to the inspection office because of your ability to investigate the case? For more than ten years, you have relied on your ability to investigate cases, and you have slowly moved to the inspection office in charge of the supervision affairs of a county? ”

Subsequently, he even exposed Yan Fang's old bottom, making his face change several times from blue to red.

Seeing the change in Yan Fang's face, Tang Xian smiled smugly: "The Fang family has no chance to turn over, and it is best to travel thousands of miles away and never return to the empire." If something happens to the distant relative in his family's capital, it will be too late to clear it up. Fang Hua'er even asked me to bring a message to his son-in-law in Qizhou, telling him not to think about it - fortunately, this is not a real reverse case, and it can't implicate his son-in-law. ”

"He completely confessed, but how can you and I stop like this!"

He screeched.

Yan Fang was silent for a long time, and in the end, his eyes were full of bitterness: "But Master Tang, I have also found out everything about this matter, and I almost found out how much wine Xie Xiuqi drank on which day, how long he was drunk, and how long he slept before waking up - and everything is fine." ”

"Therefore, even if this matter may not be the first to be discovered by the superintendent, it can only be that Xie Xiuqi changed his wits overnight and single-handedly. Otherwise, how can you explain Xie Xiuqi's great change after one night, and in the Gu family, he invented all kinds of weirdness of the three views and centrifuges? ”

"But it really has nothing to do with the party."

He said helplessly.

Tang Xian said coldly: "But you didn't find out what happened that night!" ”

Yan Fang was already extremely helpless: "My good Lord Tang, it's really not that I don't work hard - this kind of thing, it's been so long, how can I investigate?" Are you really like the Yongfu of my empire, like a pseudo-Ming Jinyi guard, you can use torture unscrupulously, and secret agents are pervasive? ”

"Yongfu is an upright imperial supervisory body, not an eagle dog that is a pseudo-emperor. Except for that group of extremely high-authority agents, let alone secret agents, even if they spy on others casually, it is against the law. ”

After a pause, Yan Fang said again: "What happened that night, what did Lu Yuwei and Xie Xiuqi say, and was there anyone else at that time." Probably only three people are clear. Lu Yuwei and Xie Xiuqi had no choice. And that An Xiu is also a loyal servant of the Lu family, and the whole family lives in the Lu Mansion, so she can't even threaten her, can I still tie her up and pry her mouth open? ”

"Even if she is kidnapped, it seems that the whole family is attached to the master's family to live, and she is a maid who grew up with the young lady in the family, and she will not betray the benefactor even if she dies. What's more, if she knows the inside story of the night, if you are Xie Xiuqi and Lu Yuwei, even if your maid is a confidant when discussing major matters, will you let her listen? ”

Yan Fang's eyes were full of helplessness again as she spoke: "The most important thing is, is that night really so important?" That night was when Lu Yuwei visited Xie Xiuqi, even if there was a science party behind this matter, how could the science party choose that night and put the pickled matter of the secret fight in front of Lu Yuwei? ”

"Even if the Kedang wanted to find it, they also found Xie Xiuqi, but it was impossible to choose that night...... Could it be that they secretly met with Xie Xiuqi to instigate private affairs, and they had already prepared to ask Lu Yuwei's military division to advise on the side? Which day is not good for them to choose, should they choose that day? Do they still want to be faced? ”

Yan Fang said helplessly.

"But we didn't find out that night!" Hearing what Yan Fang said, Tang Xian shouted hoarsely.

I saw that his eyes were red, like a traveler in the desert longing for the last oasis, and like a man in the water clutching the last straw.

"Lord Yan, if there is really a science party, I will be saved, saved!"

Tang Xian's face was already full of fanaticism: "If this matter is indeed done by the party, it involves party disputes. As long as I investigate and the evidence is conclusive, and then I cry to my teacher on this basis, what will my teacher think? ”

"The Clay Party used this incident to make a trick and even more directly at what I was relying on. I just didn't notice it, and because I was actively campaigning for the Confucian Party under my teacher, I suffered this catastrophe. One man against one party, outnumbered by the many; With unpreparedness against premeditation, with the enemy in the dark, who can not lose? ”

"If my mentor abandons me afterwards, wouldn't he not only fall for the tricks of the Science and Technology Party, but also can't even protect the people who are working hard under his own door? In the future, who will dare to work for his teacher and open his eyes for the Confucian Party? ”

"At that time, my mentor will not be disgusted with me, but will have a heart of hatred for the party, and a heart of sympathy for me and a heart of protection for the calf -- in a word, without the party, I would be a sinner who is extremely stupid in the struggle for power with my colleagues. If there is a science party, I am a martyr who was plotted by the science party because I am a subordinate of the Confucian party! ”

"So, as long as there is a shadow of the party in it...... No matter how stupid I do in this matter, my teacher will not let me go! I'm saved! ”

He shouted hoarsely in a barrage.

Yan Fang's eyes were already full of bitter smiles: "I don't want this." But there's really no K&B in it, that's just your baseless assumption—"

Before his words fell, Tang Xian suddenly interrupted him: "No! There must be! ”

I saw that his eyes were red, as if he was a gambler who had lost to the last chip, and there was a trace of madness in his eyes: "There must be, Lord Yan!" You must find out what happened that night, there must be something weird! ”

Immediately, looking at Yan Fang's even more bitter expression, Tang Xian's face changed suddenly, and he smiled faintly.

I saw him say in a dark voice: "Brother Yan, I know that you are still lucky, you have nothing to do with the Fang family's reverse case, you are just derelict in your duties." But if this is a dereliction of duty, is it a dereliction of duty on your own? It's not that Young Grandpa Yang is a ghost, I'm afraid not to mention your Inspectorate, even the Wangbei Supervision Envoy and even Little Grandpa Yang are all derelict in their duties. ”

"So, you still expect that the law will not be held accountable to the public, that the higher authorities will understand that this matter is not a human crime, and that it will be reactivated after this gust of wind has passed?"

He said quietly, but it seemed to be right to the point, which made Yan Fang's face cloudy for a while.

Tang Xian looked at Yan Fang's expression, but smiled faintly.

"But Brother Yan, I have to remind you - think about it, you have already hated Lu Zihe, this is nothing, but Xie Xiuqi is on the hook of Little Grandpa Yang, how can he let you rise again? And Young Grandpa Yang has taken the credit for himself ten percent of the time through Xie Xiuqi's words, and he has already removed you for the crime of dereliction of duty, how can you let him go back on his word and take back his life? ”

"And you...... It took more than ten years of arduous trekking to move to the right position of the Inspectorate, do you really want to be ruined like this? Why should you just be unaware of this misfortune? Why do you just have no chance to turn over if you just evil Lu Zihe? Why can even Lu Zi and the waste of the family use this to enter the blue eyes of Little Grandpa Yang, but you are under the unjustified disaster, and you will never recover? ”

Tang Xianyin said in a yin voice, and Yan Fang's face gradually became painful and hideous.

"So, even if there is only the slightest opportunity, how can we not seize it? How can you not catch it! ”

Tang Xian's expression became excited again.

"Brother Yan, I also know that you are embarrassed, and I know that this matter is not so easy to investigate, and I know that this matter is only possible in ten thousand - but you and I have no choice now! There is no choice! The only straw that saves your life, what else can you do if you don't hold on to it? If you don't despair completely, how can you let go! ”

"In short, no matter how difficult it is, no matter how long it takes, no matter what we find, we must investigate it thoroughly!"

Tang Xian's eyes were already blood-red: "If the Ke Party is not found, you and I will be ruined in this life!" I will no longer have a chance to make a comeback, and you will no longer have a way to turn over. Therefore, no matter how deep the bastards of the Science and Technology Party hide, even if it is investigated for a few months and a year, or even if it is ten years and a lifetime, we will see everything in the light of day! ”

"Even if there is no science and technology party, we have to know what happened that night, why did God let Xie Xiuqi change a waste overnight, but let me and others be killed like this! It's like this! Why! Even if it is death, we will die to understand! Die for it! ”

Eventually, he was screaming wildly.

Yan Fang's face also flashed with a trace of resentment, and after being silent for a long time, he also seemed to have made up his mind, and he nodded fiercely.
