Chapter 290: The Witness Is Dead
Rong listened lightly, stood up suddenly, and looked at Lu Chengyan in shock, unable to react for a long time.
Is it the witness who can prove that some of the thirty-two officials were bribed, and he actually died?!
"Assassinated?" Rong asked softly.
Lu Chengyan shook his head slightly, looked at Rong and said lightly, "Sick to death." ”
Rong Qing didn't know what kind of expression to deal with for a while, the previous Luo Wenliang died of illness, can you still say that it was because he was old, and now this witness is only in his thirties, it is when he is young and strong, will such a man in the prime of life suddenly die of illness?
"There is a problem, it is definitely not a death from illness. This Luo Wenliang can't be checked, can't this witness be checked? Let's check it out! Rong said lightly angrily, this is clearly someone deliberately murdered.
Lu Chengyan sighed and said: "This is the puzzling place, Zhang Zhuhai came to inform me that it was because of the examination that this person died of illness." ”
After Governor Yin almost knew that the witness they had hidden well suddenly fell ill and died, he immediately thought of Luo Wenliang, and immediately directly invited him to conduct an examination, and after the examination, it was found that the witness was indeed sick and dead, which made Governor Yin couldn't help but fall into self-doubt, wondering if it was just a coincidence.
Rong Qingqing didn't know where the confidence came from, so she just looked at Lu Chengyan and said affirmatively: "It will definitely not be a coincidence, since it is involved, it must not be a coincidence." ”
Lu Chengyan nodded, he also thought so, since the old fox was involved, how could it be a coincidence.
"But the problem now is that there is no clue to prove that there is a problem with the death of these two people, so the witness can only be buried properly." Lu Chengyan said.
"Is that witness's previous confession still there? What is Governor Yin's plan? Rong asked softly.
"Governor Yin is probably not ready to startle the snake, so that testimony should not be taken out for the time being, after all, the thirty-two are involved, once one of them is moved, the others will definitely be alert immediately, so the gains outweigh the losses." Lu Chengyan said.
Rong said helplessly: "Then there is no way, all the clues that can be found now are broken on this day, and we will probably have to start from scratch again." ”
Lu Chengyan nodded, indeed everything has to start from scratch.
Rong looked at Lu Chengyan lightly worriedly, then took his hand and said: "It's okay, don't worry, we will definitely be able to find out the evidence again, I don't believe that the old fox has been an official for so many years, and there is no evidence left, we just need some time." ”
Lu Chengyan gently hugged Rong into his arms, hugged her and was silent for a moment before saying: "In order to find that witness, Li'an and I will not talk about the hardships, but I didn't expect to waste so much time, but in the end, it was useless." "The old fox is ruthless and fast enough, but I just don't know where he got the news.
Rong patted him gently, and then changed the subject: "By the way, today Miss Song invited me to the Song Mansion, and I knew that Song Yuzhao was leaving the Xiaocai Guard to go to the border." ”
Lu Chengyan let go of his demeanor and asked, "Leave the Xiao Cavalry Guard?" How many people in the Xiao Cavalry Guard can't get in, he actually wants to leave? And it's not a bad thing to stay in Kyoto, so why go to the border if something happens in Kyoto. ”
"Naturally, it's about tempering yourself." Rong said softly, pulled Lu Chengyan to the desk, and continued: "Write a letter to Wen Yuan, your wife and I have made a guarantee to the future crown princess, let Wen Yuan take care of him more when the time comes." ”
Lu Chengyan said with a smile: "It's not a problem to write a letter, but has it been determined?" ”
Rong nodded lightly and said, "It's confirmed, Master Song and Mrs. Song have agreed, Song Yuzhao has made up his mind, and now he is already waiting for the performance." ”
Lu Chengyan took the pen and said: "Xiao Cavalry Guard is good, but if you want to temper it, you still have to go to the border, since he has decided, then I will write to Wen Yuan and ask him to take care of Song Yuzhao more." It's just that the border is bitterly cold, and this time I go, I guess I will suffer. ”
Rong nodded slightly, but thought that Song Yuzhao should be ready.

Kamizendo.
Song Yunfeng withdrew from the people around him, walked straight forward, and then stopped in front of a room, stretched out his hand and slowly pushed the door open.
It's just that no one has been in for a while, and a layer of dust has fallen in this room, and at this time, the light comes in, and the floating ash rolls, making people frown at a glance. However, since Luo Wenliang died of illness, no one has really entered this room.
Song Yunfeng didn't dislike the tumbling dust, walked in directly, looked around, and then walked to the desk.
There are some books piled up there, and there are some things that have not been dealt with, such as the cold weather, the funds need to be allocated to buy charcoal fires, the students' clothes should also be made, and there are also food needs to be bought in the canteen...... It's all trivial things, just sign it and go to the account office to pay the money.
Although Shangshantang accepts poor students, he is not poor, after all, the place of Shangshantang is big enough, and some places can be rented out to collect some money.
At the beginning, Sun Qianqian, a great benevolent man who opened Shangshantang, wanted to let everyone be able to study, so he opened such a place, but he never thought that Shangshantang could reach this level today. For this good man who has been dead for I don't know how many years, Song Yunfeng still respects him very much, this is a real good man, but it's a pity that he is too pedantic.
Song Yunfeng pulled out the chair and sat down slowly, thinking that Luo Wenliang was sitting on it to deal with the affairs of the courtyard, so he picked up the pen on a whim, signed a few words, and then casually threw the pen aside and opened the drawer under the desk.
There were a few letters in the drawer, all of which were written and not sent, Song Yunfeng picked them up at random and looked through them one by one, and after finding that there was no problem, he got up and found the incense burner, threw the envelope into it and burned it.
At this time, suddenly a sound of footsteps approached, and Song Yunfeng looked at the door indifferently.
Chen Feng walked in quickly and saluted directly: "My lord, Teacher Chu is here." ”
Song Yunfeng replied lightly, and after seeing that all those envelopes were burned to ashes, he spoke: "Let Teacher Chu come in." ”
Chen Feng answered yes, and then immediately turned around and invited Chu Yunfeng.
Chu Yunfeng walked into the dean's room with some trepidation, and then lowered his head slightly, waiting for Song Yunfeng's orders.
"The old dean has been busy for so many years and has worked hard, and now he is gone, but this Shangshan Hall can't be without a dean for a day, Teacher Chu should understand what I mean." Song Yunfeng said.
Chu Yunfeng was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately lowered his head and said respectfully: "But according to the orders of the Prime Minister." ”
Song Yunfeng smiled slightly, and said: "What do you say or not, our purpose is just to find a way out for these children from poor backgrounds. And these people who came from poor backgrounds are obviously talented and knowledgeable, but they have no way out. ”
"What the Prime Minister said is that we must do our best for these students so that they can have a bright future."
