Chapter 318: Unexpected

Chu Junlan smiled, his beautiful eyes turned to see the layout of the room clearly, and then selected the most convenient place to escape, and sat down in the official hat chair near the window.

"The adults are angry, I have no way, I have come to visit the house many times in the last year, and the adults are sick, and I have something important to ask, so I have to make this decision."

Yi Yuhai sat down far away from Chu Junlan and Shutan, his back straight, and he didn't have the slightest intention of dodging.

Chu Junlan didn't care, there was nothing to do back then, and although the meeting had made a deal with her, at this time, if she wanted to collect some "interest" and know something, she had no opinion.

Yi Yuhai looked at Chu Junlan with a sinking face, his expression full of depression.

Before Chu Junlan came to the door, he had already made up his mind. Once Chu Junlan crossed the line and asked something she shouldn't ask, and it was a matter of the court's secrets, even if he bit his tongue and committed suicide, he would never say half a word!

"If there's anything you want to ask, please tell me." Yi Yu asked as if the sea was sinking like water.

Chu Junlan said: "When Lord Yi was the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, did he order to stop the investigation of the case of a woman who fell off a rockery and died tragically? ”

Yi Yuhai's heart jumped, he frowned and looked at Chu Junlan, and then seemed to have thought about something clearly, and his face was a little more abrupt.

Chu Junlan said: "In the seventh year of Jinghong, Chu Lu's family fell in the back of his head in his garden and died tragically, originally Yuan Kanghu had found that the matter was suspicious, and there was a grandmother surnamed Tao who may have witnessed the incident, and there was also suspicion in the garden at the beginning, I was going to continue to investigate, but you forcibly stopped, and the case was hastily closed with accidental death."

Chu Junlan looked directly at Yi Yuhai with both eyes, and said word by word: "Lord Yi, may I ask, why did you stop the investigation back then and not allow your subordinates to track down the truth?" Who are you trying to shelter? ”

Yi Yuhai's face turned black when she was asked, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

When he was silent, Chu Junlan did not urge, but changed his sitting posture and coughed inadvertently.

Yi Yuhai seemed to be woken up from a dream, muttered for a moment, and said helplessly: "That's it." In fact, there are indeed suspicious points in this case, and I originally planned to pursue it and give justice to the deceased. But I was approached and ordered to stop the investigation, and I agreed to his request after much deliberation. ”

Chu Junlan's eyes lit up: "Who is it?" ”

"Actually, this person should also be recognized by Miss Chu." Yi Yuhai looked at Chu Junlan and said clearly: "He is the guest of honor of Yongfu County, the champion of Yongde for twenty-nine years, Ye Zhao!" ”

When Chu Junlan heard this, his complexion changed drastically!

She never imagined that Ye Zhao would intervene in this matter!

"No, I have some friendship with the eldest princess's mansion, and I also know a little about Ye Zhuangyuan back then, shouldn't he have disappeared in Jinghong in the fourth year? When my mother had an accident, it was seven years of shock......"

Speaking of this, Chu Junlan himself couldn't say any more.

The person is missing, but he refuses to go home or show his face in public, but now that Ye Zhao is in the eldest princess's mansion, and the person is not dead, what does he want to do?

Yi Yuhai said: "Ye Zhuangyuan was the editor of the Hanlin Academy at the time, although his official position was not high, but his future was unlimited. Our emperor's temperament is free and easy, and the court likes to reuse capable ministers the most, regardless of the official position, as long as the emperor approves the talent, he will not be ashamed to ask when he encounters something. It was Ye Zhuangyuan who was very popular with the Son of Heaven at that time.

"At that time, he came to me to stop investigating the matter, and I struggled with it. But Ye Zhuangyuan is not a person who comes from nonsense, he has a valuable character, and he can't go home because he can't go home because he can't do any errands for the emperor secretly, he won't ask people to do things at will, so he ordered to stop the investigation, there must be his reasons, and it must be for the sake of the overall situation. So I thought about it and chose to follow his arrangement. ”

Chu Junlan's white hands clenched into fists, she is not a person who pretends to be naΓ―ve in her heart without knowing the world, it is precisely because she has seen too much darkness and filthiness that she can better understand what Yi Yuhai said.

The position is different, the work is naturally different, and the dead person is not Yi Yuhai's mother, of course he will not advocate justice.

But how innocent is Lu? How innocent a child is without a mother!

Chu Junlan is not a person who messes around, and he also knows that Yi Yuhai trusts Ye Zhao, attaches importance to the overall situation and allows an ordinary woman to die in vain, which is not a great crime, but the anger in his heart is burning, so Chu Junlan can't rush up and grab Yi Yuhai's collar and shake it vigorously for a while, why, isn't he the master of Qingtian? Why would he let an innocent lady die in such vain!

Shutan stood up, took a step forward, and then blocked the body between Chu Junlan and Yi Yuhai.

"Miss Chu, the answer to your question has been obtained, and our transaction is over. Please go back. ”

Chu Junlan got up and raised his eyes and glanced at them coldly.

It turned out that Shutan stayed here to speak for Kang and them, not to listen to more insiders and collect any "interest", but to protect Yi Yuhai's safety.

"You don't have to worry." Chu Junlan stood up and said with a lazy smile, "I know what it means to keep my promises, and I will do whatever I promise, Master Yi told me the truth, I will only be grateful, how can I hurt him?" ”

That being said, Yi Yuhai sat behind the mudflat, still rolling nervously with his Adam's apple.

Chu Junlan bowed to Yi Yuhai: "Late at night, how offended, Lord Yi told the little girl the truth and showed me a clear way, I am very grateful, you can rest assured, I will not publicize this matter indiscriminately." ”

Hearing this, he turned sideways and took a step out of the way.

Yi Yuhai was obviously relieved, Chu Junlan did not cry and make trouble, and blamed loudly, but was so sensible, which made Yi Yuhai's sense of Chu Junlan a lot better. is a woman who has the ability to use the relationship with the club to force him to tell the truth in order to find out the cause of her mother's death, and she can be regarded as a heroine among women.

Chu Junlan was not verbose, respectfully saluted Yi Yuhai, and said goodbye to Shutan Shili, then left the study, climbed over the wall and tiles neatly, and disappeared in front of Yi Yuhai and Shutan in the blink of an eye.

Yi Yuhai and Shutan breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, glanced at each other, and were speechless for a while.

Chu Junlan hurried back to the Guogong Mansion, trying his best to avoid the patrolling guards and the eldest uncle who had been sitting on the roof and standing guard, and wasted a lot of effort before returning to his room.

After a good night's sleep, Chu Junlan went to greet the Duchess of Maoguo early in the morning, and then asked the Xu family to go to Chu's house.

Since Chu Cailiang fled, the Chu family has been purged, and now all those who remain are loyal to Chu Huating.

When Chu Junlan came to the door of the guest house, he saw that the door of the courtyard was open, and Baole was taking people to move things to the mule cart one by one.

"What are you going to do?" Chu Junlan smiled, "Are you planning to start running Li?" ”
