Chu Yu's hand holding the chess piece raised slightly, allowing Liuyue to get up and speak.

"Tell me how she messed up the situation as a woman"

"She" Liuyue was speechless when she mentioned this. The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty were all respectful and stayed away from Yinyuetai, as the governor of Yinyuetai, even the six Shangshu had to retreat when they saw him, but the woman actually compared him and his subordinates to "murderous thieves", what is the difference between this and scolding them for bandits

If it weren't for the fact that he had secretly escorted his master to the Xiao Mansion and had seen the master talk with Miss Xiao, how could he have let him take Chu Zifeng away so easily that day. If he ordered his subordinates to resist, after cleaning up those villagers, she and Chu Zifeng would not be able to escape, but he had previously issued a killing order, and there was no precedent for his order to be withdrawn, and the best way to prevent an exception was to let them go.

is so troublesome, and the scruples are not the people who are afraid of hurting the master and don't want to hurt, who knows what kind of friendship she has with the master.

Chu Yu didn't hear Liuyue continue to make a sound for a long time, and his heart became more and more interested. There are people in the world who Liuyue can't help it, and Liuyue is his henchman, which means that he can't help it.

"What's wrong with her," Chu Yu asked.

"She said that she wanted to arrest Chu Zifeng, and she had to give her a reason."

Chu Yu seemed to hear the surprise, and the corners of his lips raised, "What else?"

"She paid ten taels of silver per person to instigate a group of foolish people to entangle us."

Chu Yu's slender fingers pressed a chess piece in the chess game, and said lightly: "Ten taels of silver per person will hinder your errand, compared with the money that the court gave you, this time I seem to have lost all my money." As he said this, the smile on his lips was palpable.

Even if the master was joking, Liuyue had already taken this matter as a warning in her heart when she heard it, and knew that she would not take it as an example.

Qiushui County.

The prefect stayed in Mei Xiaoren's yamen, and she naturally had to eat and drink well, while Lao Li seemed to be tired of running around, and he didn't stay long before he was anxious to go back to Xuanzhou.

Because it is rare for him to come once, he still has to do the official business that should be done. On the second day, Governor Li asked Mei Xiaoren to show him the file she had handled.

In the hall of the county government, countless files have built a small mountain on the bookcase. Governor Li sat in the hall and took the file and read it roughly.

Most of these files are trivial cases, and he raised some questions, and Mei Xiaoren can answer them, but the murder case a few days ago is the most striking and tricky.

Governor Li picked up the case file and looked at it for a long time, his expression was unusually solemn.

There was only a result of the process written on the file, and Mei Xiaoren shelved the case, just waiting for the prefect to make a decision and give a result.

Yesterday she had already tried it on the road, and the prefect meant to stop there, so as not to offend the people of the hidden platform, but now that he had read the file, his expression was more serious than he had imagined.

Mei Xiaoren stood aside, and seeing that the file that Governor Li was looking at did not take her eyes off, and she didn't say a word, she couldn't help but ask, "The case will be closed according to the will of the adult."

"Otherwise, how many heads do you dare to check the secrets of the hidden platform, if you find out something that shouldn't be checked, even the old man can't afford it." Governor Li said, glancing at Mei Xiaoren.

Mei Xiaoren then looked at the officials guarding the hall and motioned for Ye Zhi to take them down.

When only she and Governor Li were left in the hall, she boldly asked: "Lord Prefect, dare to ask, those bandits can come out of Xuanzhou, but the adults ordered them to be released."

"It's been two years, and I haven't grown in size, but I've grown a lot in courage." Governor Li glanced at Mei Xiaoren, looked at the file with heavy eyes, and said, "The old man is also acting on orders. ”

"On Order"

>

"You are in a small Qiushui County, naturally I don't know how heavy the ceiling above Xuanzhou is, how much the old man has to scruple about, and how much he has to obey unconditionally"

"The lowly position also knows that the prefect has a heavy burden, and he wants to share his worries for the adults." Mei Xiaoren sighed, his eyes snickering at Lao Li, watching his reaction.

"Your old man knows that the letter has been brought to the ministry, but it is Jiang Gongzi's message that spreads faster than the old man's recommendation letter." Governor Li closed the file and put it on the table, leaning on the chair and spreading his hands, "Who do you complain about?"

Mei Xiaoren lowered his eyes helplessly. No matter how much she complained, the bastard had already left, he said that he wanted to pay her back, but now it has disappeared without a trace, how can she pay it back

Governor Li casually picked up the booklet on the case and flipped through it, and said slowly: "Look at your political achievements, how beautifully you write, just go out and show the adults above, the old man's face is also bright." He glanced at Mei Xiaoren again and snorted, "You're good."

Where did Mei Xiaoren dare to complain about Jiang Rong in front of Lao Li, so he had to bow his head: "It's a lowly negligence." ”

Governor Li turned his eyes and looked around, "I stayed for a day, and I saw that your yamen was empty, and he hadn't married a wife yet."

Mei Xiaoren shook his head and replied, "Establish a career first." ”

"You are a descendant, the old man really likes it, otherwise the old man would not have helped you to draw a line and build a bridge."

"Thank you for the cultivation of the adults, it is the expectations of the adults who are lowly and have the expectations of the adults." Mei Xiaoren's heart was gray, she was just annoyed by this incident, and now she had to comfort Lao Li in turn

"That's it, how are you here, the old man has seen it almost, it's time to go back to Xuanzhou."

"Adults have only been here for two days," Mei Xiaoren said quietly. She also wants to take advantage of Lao Li's presence to treat her well, maybe she can calm down the last incident.

Usually Lao Li stays in Xuanzhou, she just can't enter the temple if she wants to burn incense.

"You have your land to plant, the old man has the old man's firewood to chop, you and I have nothing to do." Governor Li stood up with the bookcase, walked back and forth in the hall, and said slowly, "Stay here, if you have a chance, the old man should keep an eye on it for you." ”

It's all a "wait" word, but if you miss an opportunity, it's so easy to come back to her.

"Pass the order and leave for Xuanzhou tomorrow."

The prefect gave an order, and Mei Xiaoren's heart also calmed down.

She looked forward to the prefect coming, guessing that this was an opportunity for her, but this opportunity didn't seem to be swayed by Lao Li, after all, the yamen in charge of the selection and promotion of officials was the ministry.

It was one of the six departments in Shangjing, and it was also directly subordinate to the prime minister, where would the adults there sell the face of the magistrate. At the beginning, Lao Li was able to build a bridge for her, and it was not easy for her to wear this official uniform.

Now Lao Li asked her to wait, then she can only wait

"Those bandits were released by the old man, and not long after they were taken into Xuanzhou, the old man received an anonymous document that said that the old man wanted to release them."

Mei Xiaoren looked at Governor Li suspiciously, "The anonymous clerk also believes it."

"Other old men are not sure, but they can be sure that the person who wrote the document is above the second grade. This face, the old man had to sell. Governor Li took a few steps in the hall and turned to look at Mei Xiaoren, "The old man told you that he wanted you to let go of this case and understand it." Whether it is a group of people who let them go and who killed them or not, it is not up to you and the old man to manage, be careful of getting into trouble. ”

Governor Li's words Mei Xiaoren was confused at first, but after pondering, he summed up a crucial point: according to Governor Li's intentions, it cannot be ruled out that the letter asking the prefect to release people and killing them were the same group of people

Prime Minister's man
