Chapter 269: The Secret of Bringing It Into the Coffin

Except for visits during the festive season, Ning Zhiyuan rarely came to Yan's mansion, Yan Liu had just returned from the palace, and he knew the news that had made the capital boil.

It was a case he was presiding over, in which he knew the merits best, but there were some secrets, which would always remain secrets, even if it was his son standing in front of him, even if his silence would ruin his son's future.

Du Yiyi came to Yan's Mansion for the second time, the first time was with Ning Zhiyuan to congratulate Yan Liu on his promotion to a cabinet scholar, this time she still came with an injury, so embarrassing an old man made her a little unbearable, but she knew that Shen Ke needed this truth to be made public.

Yan Xinglu sat silently beside Yan Liu, if he subtracted the forehead lines on Yan Liu's forehead, erased the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and shaved off the beard at the corners of his mouth, this father and son could be said to be carved out of a mold, and this time, he chose to stand on Du Yiyi's side.

is not unfilial, he has been upheld by Yan Liu's integrity since he was a child, and he also hopes to see the truth.

"Bachelor Yan is regarded as the most outstanding criminal officer in Dahe for a hundred years, the responsibility of the criminal officer is to let the truth be revealed to the world, let the wronged and unjustly get the snow, so that the victim can be relieved, the bloody case eleven years ago, although Zhiyuan has not witnessed it with his own eyes, but the fire that burned overnight is still fresh in his memory, the case of the year is full of doubts but was set as an unsolved case, in fact, everyone has doubts, it has come to this time that the criminal department is still trying to cover up the more and more black, even the Dali Temple of the criminal department for the people to avenge their grievances is like this, how will the people view the court, Although Master Yan is no longer in the court, do you really want to see the people of Dahe look down on the court? ”

Ning Zhiyuan tried his best to persuade Yan Liu to be an official for more than ten years, and how to be an official has long been obvious to all, whether to choose to abandon principles and be blindly loyal, or insist on a few thoughts to uphold justice, this is a proposition that every criminal officer must face.

Yan Liu's elbows rested on the armrests, and the hands hanging on the side of the armrests gently rubbed the carved patterns of the two birds on the side of the armrests, and the thick yellow fingers wandered along the undulating carved surfaces. "The matter of that year has already been decided, and the truth announced by the Criminal Department is the truth, His Royal Highness King Rui, please go back!"

"Even if it is a personal grudge, at that time, with all the efforts of Dahe, and the most outstanding criminal officer of Dahe's century, how could there be no clues at all? In the end, whether the case was committed by Zhu Ge or not, Master Yan should know very well! ”

"Your Royal Highness, you are not a criminal officer, please pay attention to your identity! The old man is no longer in Dali Temple, so there is no need to tell you the inside story of the top-secret case! ”

"Does Master Yan remember the article that was proposed to be added to the law when he revised and perfected the law of Dahe?"

In the face of Yan Liu's ruthless and indifferent answer, Ning Zhiyuan was not discouraged, the old ministers who could be trusted by the emperor were the emperor's most loyal followers, and if he told him about the old things, he was stabbing the emperor in the basket, how could Yan Liu easily agree.

Back then, as soon as people were old, there were countless years that could be imagined, it was a few years when Yan Liu was in his prime, and Lu Yu nobles were rising step by step in important positions, and the promising and high-spirited had participated in the improvement and revision of the Dahe Law, and in the face of several major loopholes in the three divisions, he proposed one.

When the official is not the master of the people, it is better to go home and plant sweet potatoes, the three divisions as the division of the penalty, the wind of corruption and bribery is more prosperous than other yamen, take people's money and property for people to eliminate disasters, the yamen is open to the south, there is no money in the don't come in, Yan Liu once read the file and made statistics, in the twelfth year of Guangyuan, there were thirty people in Beijing to sue the emperor, and the case was tragic and not a few, but the final result was mostly lost and imprisoned, and the criminal department at that time Shangshujia was in the capital, and there were houses and commercial houses in Jiangnan and other places. It was he who hated corruption and bribery with high spirits, and became the first person to beat the stick, and when he beat the stick, countless people had to tighten their money bags, and countless people in the three divisions lost their officials and went to prison, laying the first shot for the rectification of the three divisions.

"Xinglu, let's send off the guests!"

He doesn't want to think about the past anymore, everyone will have their own choice when they are loyal or loyal, he is ashamed of An Guogong's family, but he is already wrong, so he can only be wrong.

Yan Xinglu, who had been silent, turned his head and stared at Yan Liu, and then at Du Yiyi, she was seriously injured in the palace the day before yesterday, but this time she came here with Ning Zhiyuan, her face was very bad, even if she covered her face with gouache and rouge, she couldn't hide the weakness of excessive blood loss.

Du Yiyi has been listening, and it is reasonable that Yan Liu is reluctant to tell the truth, and when she heard the word "send-off", she slowly stood up.

"If you don't talk about it today, you can only make mistakes again and again, whether the emperor's reputation is important, or the justice upheld is more important, I think Master Yan should be able to make a choice in his heart, the murderer will pay for his life, if Master Yan wants to live in guilt all the time, then we won't bother much! Heaven is clear, no one can cover the sky with one hand, today Shen Ke can come to take revenge after eleven years, and the truth will emerge in the future. ”

Eleven years ago, the emperor thought that he had done it to cut the grass and eradicate the roots in order to sit in peace of mind, when the dark sky was destined, the lesson of blood will always be remembered, the rebellion of Lin'an Hou, the Fuhu military mutiny, the emperor has tasted the bitter fruit, and now Shen Ke is back in charge of the Chinese military capital as An Wufang, which has confirmed that the cycle of karma is not happy.

Yan Liu glanced at Du Yiyi worriedly, stood up and walked into the back hall with a blank face.

He doesn't believe in God, but he believes in cause and effect, it is the emperor's killing that will lead to Shen Ke's present, and there will be more unthinkable results in the future, he chose a path, he can only go on unswervingly, and after staying in the big dye vat of officialdom for so many years, he is no longer the Yan Liu he was at the beginning.

Yan Xinglu took the two out of the lobby, Yan Liu's paranoia he knew better than anyone else, he couldn't ask this time, and it was impossible to ask in the future, this would be the secret that his father brought into the coffin.

A guard at the gate of the mansion ran over, which he had sent to the outer guard of the brocade guard to watch, and the guard told him about the latest movements of the brocade guard.

"Is there any news in the palace?" The emperor watched from the wall, and now should be the time for him to dispatch.

"Shu Ruhai left the palace and went to Dongchang!" The guard replied.

Zhu Ge went out of the city with Shen Ke, and Shu Ruhai went to Dongchang, how will this matter evolve?

Shen Ke couldn't admit his identity, although it was excusable, but he took advantage of the crime of bullying the king, and the three divisions were silent, suing Zhu Ge and Bu Nen, and armed brawls were not the style of the two.

Yan Xinglu only sent the two to the gate of Yan's mansion, and after leaving Yan's mansion, the two got into a sedan chair, planning to go out of the city to have a look.

There have been a lot of people who are excited or angry on the way through the north gate of the city, but because of the temporary closure of the city gate, they can only block the gate and are not allowed to leave the city, after all, they can't interfere in the affairs of the military, even if they start fighting, they don't remember that Zhu Ge will take advantage, Du Yiyi is injured, and after thinking about it, Ning Zhiyuan and Du Yiyi turned back and planned to go to Shen Mansion for a while.

Lu Xiangxue is not in the Shen Mansion, and now at this time, Du Yiyi can also think of where Lu Xiangxue will go, the wound on her waist hurts badly, so she can only return to the mansion.

The wound that was healing with a blood scab was torn again, but there was not much blood, and she lay on the soft couch with ointment, and she began to listen carefully to all the news that Qin Huai had found out in the past half a day with Ning Zhiyuan.

Shen Ke is sending off the soldiers who have returned to the field in the north of the city for the last time, and the soldiers and horses of the other four armies are still there, and a large group of Jinyi guards have gone out of the north gate of the city, and the news of the closure of the north gate of the city is difficult to spread for the time being, and the soldiers who stayed in the city are quite restless after hearing the rumors, and Shu Ruhai has already led Dongchang and Jinyi Wei to maintain stability. Many veterans who have long been out of the court have returned to the Governor's Mansion, and some ministers who had previously received the kindness of An Guo Gong also stood up, no matter what, with the current trend, it is impossible for the emperor to kill Shen Ke so innocently.

"Lord and Princess Qi, I believe that Mrs. Hou is visiting!" The butler stood outside the door of the dormitory and announced.

Xin Tonghou went to Jinzhou to suppress bandits, the Left Army Governor's Mansion is now Ning Chaoge is temporarily in charge, the previous assassination was Xin Tonghou's wife who stepped forward to rescue, Du Yiyi has always wanted to thank her for not having time, I heard that she came to the door, it was the worried Du Yiyi's eyes lit up, and the housekeeper brought her in.
