Chapter 165: The Zheng Family
Qingqing thought as she walked, she wanted to ask the Zheng family what she was doing that day, but there were too many things and she forgot to ask. Because that Zheng Bo is still professional, if it weren't for himself, he would definitely be able to escape.
It's good now, yesterday the lawsuit was brought to the criminal department, and today the plaintiff and the victim are dead, so in a case without a plaintiff, Zheng Boda can get rid of it cleanly; The Zheng family is quite interesting, and if the Qiao family is involved, he either knows his identity, so he puts the Qiao family out of the case; Either the Qiao family was put all the way to the Ximen family, is this forcing the Qiao family to unite with Ximen?
"Qingqing ......" The west gate was still outside the gate, and when he saw the Liu family's carriage coming out, he hurriedly rushed over.
"Lord Simon, please respect yourself, Miss's maiden name, or be cautious." Mama Huang opened the curtain of the car and scolded with a dark face.
"Yes, Miss Qiao......" Ximen opened his hand to Mama Huang.
"Lord Ximen, Miss is going back to Qiao's Mansion, please get out of the way." Mama Huang still has a black face, you don't need to ask Ximen Kai if you want to ask anything, Qiao's family is here!
Ximen Kai didn't see Qingqing, but he was frightened by Mama Huang's momentum, he took a step back, and the carriage ran briskly.
Simon looked at the gorgeous carriage and felt ridiculous for a moment. He also learned about the burning of the Guo family's yard early in the morning. His brain has also been trained in cases for so many years.
He contacted the Zheng family's statement to the Criminal Department yesterday, and also thought of the Zheng family's intentions, so he hurriedly came to find Qingqing. These days, he also wants to see Qingqing, Qingqing was taken back to the Liu family, Qingqing doesn't know, but he knows very well that the Liu family's perception of himself is stronger than that of the Qiao family. But he didn't dare to rashly find Lord Liu, for fear of affecting his image in the Liu family. Today, I finally found some decent reason, so I rushed in. As a result, he was driven far away by a subordinate, and regardless of the Qiao family or the Liu family, they would not marry Qingqing to him.
Ximen Kai didn't go to Qiao's house anymore, and Qiao's family should know about it, but now he is too painful, and he really doesn't have the strength to hold on anymore.
This is Dongcheng, and the Ximen family's family is also here, and there are few people who can keep their residences as the same founding ministers. It's just that Simon's house is located at the end of this street. It is farther away from the Yue Guo Mansion. Sometimes, the location of the house is also a reflection of status.
"Young master, the old lady is waiting for you in the study!" After the old butler came in, he lowered his head and said softly, "The second master is also here." ”
Ximen Kai took a deep breath, he went back that day and told his grandfather that Qingqing was the granddaughter of the Liu family, and that Zhenniang turned out to be the only concubine of the Liu family, fostered in the Yang family.
That day, the old man, father, and second uncle didn't dare to speak, and there was silence in the study. The Liu family and the Ximen family have never been the same line. The ancestors of the Liu family, like the ancestors of the Ximen family, were one of the founding sages.
Of course, the ancestors of the Liu family were ranked many higher, and the Ximen family had been firmly following the path of law since then, and finally really broke out of a bloody road. But the Liu family was originally a little closer to the royal family. The road of Wenzong that they have been walking is really a peach and plum in the world. If you let them know that Uncle Simon wants to force Zhen Niang to be a concubine! Everyone didn't dare to think about it, and they didn't have the strength to say anything.
The old lady didn't say much that day, just told them to go back. These days, the old lady hasn't looked for him again, this is the first time everyone has looked for him after everyone knows that Qingqing is the only granddaughter of the Liu family.
"Grandfather! Second uncle. Entering the study, Simon opened and saluted the old man and Simon again.
"Did you see Qingqing?" Simon smiled again, his demeanor was actually a little relaxed.
"She's back to Joe's house." Simon Kai really didn't have the courage to say that he didn't see it.
"Really, isn't this an opportunity? Qiao's family has no curfew. Simon gave him another roll of the eye.
"What do you think of this case?" The old man leaned back in his chair and took a ring ruler and played with it in his hand.
"The Zheng family bets that the Ximen family will not stick to the end." Simon Kai bowed his head and said. He was embarrassed to say that in this case, the Ximen family would only push the boat down the river and try the case with great fanfare, and in the end they would still let Zheng Bo go, and the knife would cut the tofu on both sides.
The old lady nodded, lowered his head, and knocked the ring ruler in his hand all at once, not knowing what he was thinking.
"The Zheng family is a bit of a self-immolation this time, it's too obvious, even if I want to push the boat down the river, I feel depressed, when everyone is stupid?" Ximen saw that his father didn't speak, and he snorted coldly, he knew that his qualifications were not high, and he had his own ability to do things like this in the Criminal Department over the years.
"The Zheng family is also an old law, and even if everyone knows that there is a problem in the case they do, I am afraid that except for Qingqing, no one else can find a flaw." The old man finally spoke.
These days, the old lady has been thinking about the emperor's "niece!" Subsequently, the fall of the Huang family all means that the royal family is showing goodwill to the Liu family. The old lady couldn't help but think of his Simon family.
He retreated to his hometown for five years and did not dare to enter Beijing, and as soon as he entered Beijing, Kaifeng Mansion and Dali Temple were lost one after another. Even if the loss of Kaifeng Mansion has nothing to do with him, but the loss of Dali Temple can't help but make the old lady think about it. Is this what the Qiao family did, or does the royal mean it?
Subsequently, Qingqing retired and lived in the Liu family. All this gave Ximen Zhi a little hope again, but Scholar Liu was the same as him, he was born in a family, but the Liu family was a family of Wenzong, even if more than thirty years ago, only he and his wife were left, but they had to think, was that really the prince's request?
Or did the emperor know that he had to leave a root for the Liu family? Let people know the benevolence of the royal family, and the royal family did this only because the first queen couldn't help but not be taboo with the Liu family.
Sure enough, in three years, the prince will be able to take the old history of the former Liu family's protégé, force the former emperor to overturn the case, and kill the concubine family by the way. Although this may be a hand-turning cloud and hand-covering rain played by the former emperor, it is not that he is still jealous of the Liu family.
How should he deal with this complex situation? This is a sentence that often comes to the mind of the old man now. He didn't expect that the answer he gave in his mind would return to Liu Qiao's important contact with the two families, Qiao Qingqing!
"Will the Liu family let Qingqing out? Now the emperor is waiting for Qingqing to pass the filial piety period and summon him. Simon's face changed slightly, and he said softly. Although he also hopes that Ximen Kai can marry the girl he likes. But just now when he heard the old man's words, he was a little uncomfortable, in this way, is it pushing the Qiao family to the opposite side of the Zheng family? Let the Liu family kill the Zheng family by the way?
Ximen Kai didn't look up, he lowered his head, thinking of the second uncle's evaluation of the old man. In this family, the most ruthless is the old man.
"What do you think?" The old man did not let go of the west door open, and gently knocked on the table with the ring ruler and asked him what he meant.
"I want to check it out, and it's what you said, it's better to rely on your father and mother than on yourself!" Simon paused and said softly.
