Chapter 163: Thinking Together
Xu Qingyue's casual words hit Xu Qinghuan's thoughts.
"Of course I don't." Xu Qinghuan naturally couldn't tell the truth.
"Really?" Xu Qingyue noticed the strange look on her sister's face that flashed away, and deliberately laughed.
The two of them talked and laughed like this, as if the atmosphere of the whole courtyard was much more relaxed.
When Mrs. Xu heard the movement in the courtyard, she couldn't help but have a kind look on her face: "It's a child, and I'm happy when I turn around." ”
The housekeeper's mother said, "I'll help you go to the yard too!" ”
"No," Mrs. Xu shook her hand, "I'll go and lie down, and I'll have to wait for news from the two brothers for a while, alas, I hope this time can really be spent safely." ”
……
Song Chengxuan came out of the yamen of the Criminal Department and found Huang Qinghe standing outside and didn't know what to think.
Song Chengxuan walked over, and the two greeted each other.
"Lord Song," Huang Qinghe thought for a while before saying, "Just now came out that Marquis Anyi's old illness has relapsed, and he asked the imperial court to allow him to return to Fengxiang's hometown to recuperate." ”
Song Chengxuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Huang Qinghe said: "An Yihou's Mansion can't hold it," he pursed his dry lips when he said this, "No wonder this is the case, the Zhang family stared at An Yihou." ”
It's just that he didn't think that An Yihou would admit defeat like this, and he was a little lost in his heart, but he also felt that it was reasonable that he couldn't take the life of the entire Xu family in order to investigate the case.
No one wants to get involved in a treason.
"What should I do with this case," Huang Qinghe came back to his senses, "Is it just like that, even if it is smuggling, even if it is saltpeter, it is still ......"
Huang Qinghe couldn't continue, his throat felt like a stone had been blocked, and he swallowed it with difficulty for a while: "There are so many people who have died because of this." ”
The two of them were talking, Xu Changrong happened to come out with a few officials, Xu Changrong looked proud: "Everyone has worked hard to investigate the case these days, go back and rest for a while, I think this case will be closed soon, the Sun family, the Yan family, and the Tan family are entangled in business, so they caused such an incident, Tan Guangyao and Tan Guangwen must be carefully tried, especially that Tan Guangyao, before the case is concluded, you must not let him die."
Such a murderer must be punished by the imperial court, otherwise how can we explain to the people, and the people are waiting for this day. ”
Xu Changrong said it soundingly, and the other officials of the Criminal Department bowed down and smiled.
After Xu Changrong finished speaking, he turned his head and saw Song Chengxuan and Huang Qinghe, his face immediately became more serious, but the smile in his eyes deepened: "You two have also worked hard." "I didn't expect An Yihou to be scared to resign, many people are just majestic on the surface, and when it comes to seeing the real chapter, one is more than the other.
The Marquis of Anyi's Mansion has lost all face now, and when he was in the yamen, when he heard such news, the faces of the two imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were indescribably ugly.
Xu Changrong is really refreshed, there is nothing wrong with doing what Master Zhang said, he bet on the right person in this game, and when the case is over, he has to go and have a good drink, the Zhang family is a blessing in disguise this time, although there is a false alarm, in exchange for the thorn in the eye is completely expelled from the capital.
Xu Changrong and his subordinates' eyes flashed, although they didn't speak, the expressions they showed were already very explicit, and several people almost laughed out loud in front of everyone.
Laughed at the Marquis of An Yihou and the Xu family.
When Xu Changrong left with the officials, Huang Qinghe said again: "It seems that there will be news in the next two days, and the three law divisions will also present the results of the trial to the emperor." ”
This means that the case is closed.
Thinking of this, Huang Qinghe immediately saluted Song Chengxuan: "Time is pressing, I have to sort out the documents again, so I will say goodbye to Lord Song first." ”
Song Chengxuan nodded.
Huang Qinghe walked towards the yamen, took two steps, and suddenly turned around as if he had thought of something: "Are all the words that Lord Song said last time true?" Pirates and widows in case they have that kind of Franc cannon on board......"
Song Chengxuan said lightly: "If the pirates come by surprise, it will inevitably be a bitter battle. ”
Huang Qinghe said: "It's a pity that no one cares about this matter. "Perhaps this is the greatest sorrow of Da Zhou.
……
Song Chengxuan returned to the courtyard, and the dusty Zhang Zhenren immediately greeted him: "Childe, I'm back." ”
Two people walked into the study.
Zhang Zhenren immediately said what he found in Changzhou: "The pirates seized a lot of the Sun family's manpower, although the Sun family spent money afterwards, and the people along the coast were not allowed to mention it.
But there is no impermeable wall in this world, and the people along the coast don't say anything in front of the Sun family, and when the Sun family leaves, they will quietly talk about it.
I found the right opportunity to go to the family to do things, and found out some truth from the mouths of the family, several big ships of the Sun family went to sea, only a few people fled back, and the people who fled back said that it was the White Dragon King who was angry......"
Zhang Zhenren's eyes flickered when he said this.
The "White Dragon King" mentioned here is not the legendary fairy and ghost, but a person.
He has been at sea for decades, and he is very familiar with the situation at sea, even in the face of extreme weather at sea, he can find ways to turn danger into a disaster, and can really do whatever he wants in the sea, and because he has long had to be white, so he will be called the "White Dragon King".
After saying this, Zhang Zhenren showed a smile on his face: "I know that it is the 'White Dragon King' who does business with the Zhang family, and the next step is to get evidence of their dealings with each other," Speaking of this, he looked outside, "Has the little girl come recently?" This time she begged us for help, otherwise we wouldn't have told her the news. ”
After Zhang Zhenren finished speaking, he saw that Yongye was winking at him, but it was already too late.
Song Chengxuan didn't speak, and Yongye had to whisper: "Marquis An Yi entered the palace to report to the emperor, saying that his old illness had relapsed, and begging the emperor to allow him to return to Fengxiang to recuperate." ”
Zhang Zhenren was stunned: "Is it because of the Zhang family?" An Yihou was so vulnerable, so he retreated. ”
Song Chengxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, it is not surprising that An Yihou would do such a thing, An Yihou chose this way more than ten years ago, he should have thought of it a long time ago......
Despite this thought, another thought came to mind.
Maybe this was a ploy she used.
On the surface, the Marquis of Anyi Mansion has yielded to the Zhang family, and the Zhang family has made a mistake, not only can they get out safely, but they can also take the opportunity to suppress those who oppose the Zhang family, for the Zhang family they are now above everything, including the emperor.
The Zhang family's rampant and doing whatever they want is like a thorn piercing the emperor's body, how can the emperor tolerate it, he must personally punish the Zhang family.
The emperor moved such a thought, and the Zhang family must be in a catastrophe.
Is that all there is to it? She wasn't like the one who came up with an idea and was ready to die.
She must have had other plans.
Song Chengxuan squinted his eyes, he sat here, as if he was watching the fire from the other side.
