When Lu Fuzhi said this, he couldn't help sighing, and even Zuo Zhaozhi and Jiang Xiaoquan were a little moved.

That Cao family's maid Gui Zhen is so good at talking and acting, if they hadn't known the true thoughts of the Cao family and Pingnan Bofu, I'm afraid they would have to believe it, right?

It seems that Ping Nanbo's plan is very big.

It is still unknown whether Empress Cao and Cheng Enhou have decided to stand by and watch Xie Pu, and even plan to sacrifice him as a shield, but Ping Nanbo obviously has not given up his plan to get off the horse southeast and involve the Lin family while framing his brother-in-law Xie Pu.

With the relationship between Empress Cao, Cheng Enhou and Lin Zhaoyi and the Lin family, once the former learned about Ping Nanbo's intentions, even if he didn't want to meddle in the original situation, he couldn't help but come in, right? Once the plan is successful, Lin Zhaoyi and the Lin family behind her will be greatly damaged, which is undoubtedly extremely beneficial to Queen Cao and the crown prince.

To achieve such a goal, what is it to sacrifice a Xie Pu? Although Xie Pu is the son-in-law of the Cao family, in addition to being willing to give money, he has always refused to obey the orders of Queen Cao and Chengenhou, and is unwilling to do things for the Cao family. Such a son-in-law is dispensable, compared to Fang Wenshan, who is expected to become the new husband of the Cao family, it seems that he can enhance the control of Empress Cao's family over the forbidden army, and it seems to be a hundred times more useful than Xie Pu!

As for the promise of Pingnan Bofu to save Xie Pu'er's life, as well as keep his property for him, and give him a pair of children in the future, whether it is Lu Fuzhi, Zuo Zhaozhi, or Jiang Xiaoquan, they just listened to it and didn't take it seriously.

This kind of verbal promise is not known to outsiders, even if Ping Nanbo turns his face and denies it afterwards, what can Xie Pu do to him? His eldest son and eldest daughter are still in the hands of Ping Nanbo, and Xie Pu has thrown a mouse trap, and this loss can only be admitted.

As for the Cao family, although she is the biological mother of Xie Pu's eldest son and eldest daughter, the tiger poison does not eat children, and it is impossible to be detrimental to the flesh and blood of the biological flesh. However, she has decided to remarry Fang Wenshan, and when the time comes, she will leave a pair of children in her mother's house, aren't they still rubbed by Ren Ping Nanbo? Ping Nanbo only needs to persuade his sister to let the two children have no worries about food and clothing for the time being, and it is impossible for the Cao family to make any fierce opposition. And when she marries into the Fang family, with Fang Wenshan's flesh and blood, her heart and eyes will be occupied by new children. In a few years, how much can she care about the children she had with Xie Pu?

Lu Fuzhi analyzed the thoughts that Ping Nanbo and the Cao family might have, and couldn't help but sigh: "Xie Pu asked them to calculate this part, I really don't know how much debt they owed to the Cao family in their previous life, so that they were targeted by such crazy in-laws for no reason." Where is this still a wife and brother-in-law, it is clear that they are undying enemies! ”

He said with a disdainful face: "You don't know, the maid named Gui Zhen also hinted to Xie Pu that Ping Nanbo and the Cao family have made an agreement to hire his eldest daughter as a daughter-in-law. Even if this is a bit covetous of his eldest daughter's marriage, it seems to be more reassuring. After all, a quarter of the Xie family's wealth also has hundreds of thousands of taels, which is not small money. Since Ping Nanbo has what he wants, he will naturally contribute more to the Xie family - this is really not to deceive people to death, and he refuses to give up! Ping Nanbo didn't even let go of his two nephews, what kind of uncle is this?! The Cao family didn't know if they knew about it. If you know, then you are really a mother! ”

Zuo Zhaozhi shook his head again and again when he heard this, and he also felt that Xie Pu was really pitiful. He asked Lu Fuzhi: "Since Xie Pu has heard the inside story from his second daughter, he must not be fooled." How did he reply to the servant? ”

Lu Fuzhi: "He said that the stakes are very important and it takes time to think about it, so he put it off for the time being." But the servant girl was very anxious, and said that when she came back tomorrow, she would have a definite answer. Because the situation of this case is not good, if it can't be dealt with early, I am afraid that the Lin family will exert their strength in the palace, making the case a foregone conclusion, so that the Pingnan Bofu has nothing to do. ”

Needless to say, this must be another lie by Cao and others to coax Xie Pu and force him to make a hasty decision.

Zuo Zhaozhi heard a little strange: "The Cao family is still the mother of the Xie family now, and there is Xie Pu's eldest son in his hand, if he wants to seek the Xie family's property for his mother's family, does he still need Xie Pu's nod?" ”

Lu Fuzhi nodded: "According to Xie Pu, his family's property is jointly managed by several big shopkeepers, and if you want to mobilize a large amount of money, you need the permission of the head of the family, otherwise even if it is the main mother, or Xie Pu's mother and Xie Pu's son, she has no right to transfer." And the rules of the Xie family are that they have to change a secret sentence every month, plus the handwritten letter of the head of the family, in order to mobilize more than 5,000 taels of silver. In the past, whenever the Cao family had to swallow a large amount of gold and silver from the Xie family and feed back to the Pingnan Bo Mansion, they had to make up reasons and ask Xie Pu for instructions, so Xie Pu could write down the secret account. Except for a few big shopkeepers, only Xie Pu knew about the secret words. It is said that the Cao family once made an idea to let a henchman replace a big treasurer in order to obtain secret words, but it never succeeded. Xie Pu only allowed her to install a few henchmen as shopkeepers and a few big shopkeepers in some of the shops below, but she never changed. ”

He then sighed: "Xie Pu is not too stupid, he knows what is the most important place. His great treasurers were very shrewd and capable, and earned him a great deal of gold and silver. If it was replaced by someone from the Cao family, I am afraid that the Xie family's family would have been emptied of Pingnanbo's Mansion long ago. ”

But also because of this secret language, the Cao family and Ping Nanbo now want to take advantage of the danger to seize the Xie family's property, so they can only coax Xie Pu to give the secret language and write a handwritten letter.

Speaking of this, Lu Fuzhi couldn't help but complain: "That errand officer named Ding San is really slippery!" He accepted the silver from the Wen family, and he didn't let go of the silver reward from the Pingnan Bo Mansion, which gave Gui Zhen and the others a lot of convenience. If it weren't for the fact that he was still a little clever and knew that some news could not be leaked, I am afraid that the people in Pingnanbo Mansion would already know that Wen's mother and son had come to visit the prison. ”

Jiang Xiaoquan said in a deep voice: "It is natural that the Wen family will come to visit the prison. The people of Pingnanbo Mansion don't care about this, and the Cao family even explicitly mentioned reconciliation, but the reason is to save a pair of children. They didn't know that Xie Pu's second daughter had overheard important news, so they didn't take a few old and weak women and children to heart. Those words that coaxed Xie Pu, although if you think about it carefully, there are still many flaws, but Xie Pu is trapped in prison, has no information from the outside world, and is anxious, and is forced to make a decision in a hurry, and the possibility of being fooled is too great. We all have to thank his second daughter for sending the crucial news in time. Otherwise, I am afraid that I will be led into a crooked path by the Cao family and Ping Nanbo, just like Xie Pu, so that the case will enter a dead end and the truth will not be revealed. ”

Zuo Zhaozhi looked at Lu Fuzhi: "You discuss with Xie Pu Haosheng to see how to use this matter." The Cao family has repeatedly used poison schemes, and the plan is very big, but now there is not enough evidence to prove that his family is guilty. I'm afraid Xie Pu will really have to suffer a big loss this time before he can lure the snake out of the hole. If we can't succeed in grasping Ping Nanbo's handle, it will not be so easy for us to reveal the truth. Although it is difficult for Xie Pu to escape the calculations of the Cao family, we will not be able to explain to the emperor. ”

Lu Fuzhi's face was solemn and he nodded solemnly.

Jiang Xiaoquan stood up: "Without further ado, Jiang will immediately enter the palace to see the saint!" ”

The trio split up. Zuo Zhaozhi sat back in front of the bookcase, looked through the file again, and thought silently.

Suddenly, a servant hurriedly came to report: "Master, the second master took the young lady into Beijing, but on the road I met the children of the powerful and frightened." Fortunately, there are well-wishers who helped, and the second master and the young lady are safe and sound, and they are now home. However, the second master was very angry, he was sick, and he was dizzy, so the family could only come to report to the master to see if he could ask a doctor to treat the second master? ”

Zuo Zhaozhi's face changed greatly at first, and he got up suddenly, but then calmed down: "You take my name card to ask Imperial Doctor Liu, how much silver you want to use, just pay it to the account." I still have official business here, and I can't leave, so you can tell my second brother and niece for me, and ask them to take care of me. ”

When the servant heard this, he sighed and reluctantly took the name card and left.
