Because of Hua Yao's joining, Shen Cha asked Merlin to tell the shopkeeper that he would add one more dish to the dish he had just ordered. This kid has followed him from Xijing to Jiaping Guancheng, and he probably hasn't eaten much along the way, and he looks a lot thinner than the last time they met.

"Thank you, General Shen!" Hua Yao stood up and saluted Shen Cha, "I'm really sorry to cause trouble to Grandpa Guo and General Shen." ”

"It's okay!" Shen Haolin waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down, "Just don't run away from home again." ”

Hua Yao grabbed his hair embarrassedly and sat down again.

"I haven't asked yet, how did you two quarrel just now?" Bai Meng looked at Hua Yao with great interest, "Your Majesty can quarrel like this in front of you, you are quite bold, aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will blame you?" Originally, you ran out without permission, but this time it's a mistake on top of a mistake! ”

"Great Commander, if I really see Your Majesty, no matter what Xue Ruitian says, I won't take advantage of it, I haven't seen it!" Hua Yao glanced at the Hou Ye who was smiling evilly, snorted in disgust, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is behind Xue Ruitian, still in the shadows, I didn't notice it at all." As soon as I came in, they hit me squarely, and before I could say anything, he started hurting me, and if I didn't talk back......"

"It's not you!" Bai Meng patted him on the shoulder and said sympathetically, "Good luck!" ”

Hua Yao wanted to ask Bai Meng whether Xue Ruitian would have a personal vendetta against him, but before his mouth could be opened, he saw that the door of the box was opened.

The person who came in was Mei Zhu, who was sent out by Shen Cha to buy snacks and returned to the Gongfu by the way to inquire about the news, and this trip had a lot of gains, holding a lot of oil paper bags in his arms. She first put these things in front of Song Jue, opened each oil paper bag, and gave a brief introduction to Song Jue. When Song Jue began to taste these snacks, she quietly rubbed to Shen Cha's side.

"General, there is a result." She relayed what Jin Jing asked her to relay to Shen Cha, and said it as it was, "I went into the dungeon to take a look, and the person Jia Liu and Liang Qingshan identified was indeed Boss Lu. It's just that Jia Liu couldn't bear this huge blow and had already fainted, and when I left, he hadn't woken up yet. The general can rest assured that the military advisor has already looked for a doctor, and there is no big problem. ”

"This result ......" Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin, "It's quite unexpected, I didn't expect it at all." ”

Shen Haolin nodded, "That Boss Lu, have we met?" The one from Xijing? The one that my uncle likes very much? ”

"Yes, Grandpa Guo." Mei Zhu nodded, "The fourth brother has already gone to the deputy marshal to verify, it is him, and he is indeed a child of the Lu family." ”

"Although there are witnesses, they can prove their identities in the end, especially the ironclad evidence that proves that they are brothers and sisters, and Boss Lu can't get rid of suspicion for the time being. Go back and tell the military advisor that we must confirm that he is a member of the Lu family back then, and then we can release him. Otherwise, he is still one of the suspects. Shen Cha looked at Jin Miaomiao thoughtfully, "Is there a way to prove their relationship?" ”

"Of course!" Jin Miaomiao shook her head proudly, "I'll do it when I go back, don't worry, I'll be satisfied." However, what is going on with the Lu family's case? That doesn't sound normal! ”

"It's not normal, I've seen this case before, and I don't understand what's going on." Shen Cha looked up at Hua Yao, who was sharing snacks with Bai Meng, and asked Shen Haolin next to him, "Brother, was the presiding judge of the Lu family's case old Hua Ge?" ”

"That's right!" Shen Haolin nodded, "Hua Ge was always the chief judge back then, and because of this, uncle...... Your master has a very big opinion of him. ”

"Master?" Shen Cha was surprised, "Why?" ”

"Uncle thinks that Hua Ge Lao was selfish when he handled this case, and his purpose was not pure, and he had ......"

"The suspicion of personal revenge can't support a fair and honest name." Song Jue picked up Shen Haolin's words, looked at Hua Yao, and sighed, "Xiaocha, I think what your master said is right, even if so many years have passed since this case, I still think that Hua Ge Lao is not upright and bright enough in handling this case, and the communiqué personal vendetta can't escape." ”

"So, you never want to see him." Shen Haolin chuckled, "Poor Pavilion Elder still thinks you use him very much." ”

"The sons are all teaching well, but he ...... himself" Song Jue shook his head lightly and pointed at Hua Yao with his chin, "You take a closer look at his appearance." ”

"Looks ......" Shen Haolin looked at it seriously, "Has the Queen Mother seen the stepwife of the old Hua Ge?" I remember that she and my mother visited the Queen Mother together. ”

"Yes, that's the one you met before you left Xijing." Song Jue nodded, "Before that, she had also seen that dancer once, but because of the teaching department who went secretly, no one knew." ”

"How?" Shen Haolin raised his eyebrows, "Did you go and see it?" ”

"I'll tell you, it's really exactly the same, it feels like it's carved out of a mold. If it weren't for the great difference in the tone of speech and behavior, I would have thought it was the dancer herself! Our elder Ge Lao's attitude towards this step-lady, tsk......tt" Song Jue shook his head, "This is obsession, if you can't get it at the beginning, you will completely destroy it, and then use an innocent person to miss it." He pouted in disgust, "It's too selfish, this kind of person, I can't afford it, who knows when he will bite me back, I can't stand it." ”

Shen Haolin nodded approvingly, turned his head and saw Shen Cha and Jin Miaomiao who were confused, reached out and patted Song Jue's arm, and motioned for him to explain.

"Xiaocha, did you have a general understanding of the Lu family's case before?" Seeing Shen Cha nodding, Song Jue continued, "Actually, the Lu family was barely an imperial merchant back then, but unlike the Qin family, it was the Jiaofang Division who had always had business dealings with them. A famous prostitute in Jiangnan, what is the place of the Jiaofang Division, you have also been to see it, the Lu family has a group of people who are responsible for training dancers. At that time, Hua Ge Lao was not a Ge Lao, but just a minor official in the Ministry of Rites, and the Jiaofang Division happened to be under his control, and he became familiar with the people of the Lu family as soon as he came and went. ”

"Are you familiar with the head of the Lu family?" Jin Miaomiao sneered, "Are they the same age?" ”

"No, the head of the Lu family is more than ten years younger than the elder of Hua Ge, but they later became brothers with different surnames because their relationship was too good." Song Jue shrugged his shoulders, "A few years after the two became brothers, Da Shi paid tribute to a few dancers and sent them to the Jiaofang Division. One of them looked astonishing......" he spread his hands, "it's not what I said, it's the people who have seen this dancer, they all say that they have never seen such a beautiful woman." ”

"Brothers with different surnames fell in love with the same woman, and this woman liked the Lu family, but the two people who were like siblings turned their faces for a foreign woman." Jin Miaomiao rolled her eyes as she spoke, "So, was the Lu family framed by Hua Ge Lao?" ”

"It's not enough to be framed, he did hide the dancer privately, and he is indeed guilty." Shen Cha sighed, "According to the records in the dossier, that dancer was bullied and was rescued by the Lu family and brought back to Jiangnan. It was many years before it was reported that he was hiding a foreign woman, and that this foreign woman was a prisoner who had escaped from the Workshop Division many years ago. At that time, Hua Ge Lao had already been promoted to the chief judge of the Criminal Department, and he had already broken off contact with the head of the Lu family, so naturally there was no need to avoid suspicion. However, judging from the final verdict...... "she thought for a moment," she said, "it was heavy, so it was inevitable that it would give people the impression of a personal vendetta." In this regard, it is not wronged. ”

"I didn't expect that after many years, I would hear the news about the Lu family again." Song Jue sighed with emotion, "After eating, I'll go and have a look, maybe I can help you!" ”
