Chapter 423: Entrustment
Old lady Shen finally asked Shen Cong's opinion, Shen Cong raised his head and said sincerely: "The grandson obeys his grandfather's arrangement. ”
Old Lady Shen stared at Shen Cong deeply, not missing every bit of his expression.
"You have brought almost annihilation to the Shen clan, do you understand?" Old Lady Shen said in a deep voice.
Shen Cong shuddered and hung his head guiltily: "Grandson can't escape the blame." ”
"If it weren't for His Highness and Manman, the Shen Mansion would not have been able to escape the catastrophe."
Old lady Shen was blunt.
The son of the Heavenly Family died in the Shen Mansion, which may be a disaster of annihilation.
Even if the crown prince and the crown princess are here, this matter is difficult to get right.
"Grandfather, grandson knows wrong."
Shen Cong's words choked.
"From now on you will atone for the wrongs you have committed."
Old Lady Shen coughed a few times and said slowly, "Before the head of the family can take charge of the family business, you must do your best to support the growth of the head of the family, until he reaches adulthood, and then entrust all the Shen family business to the head of the family." ”
"From now on, your path will be even more difficult, everything you have paid is for the Shen family, and you can't make personal gains from it."
"Shen Cong, you might be able to do it?"
"The grandson swears," Shen Cong solemnly raised his hand, "from now on, he will fully support the next head of the family, until the head of the family entrusts all the family business to adulthood, and will never seek any personal gain from it, and will do his best to die." ”
Old Lady Shen nodded, looked at Shen Cong and said, "Ah Cong, go to the bookshelf and get our Shen Clan's most precious black wooden box." ”
Shen Cong was stunned when he heard this, and immediately responded, got up and turned around and walked towards the bookshelf.
The bookshelf looks unpretentious, but in fact there is something inside.
Shen Cong pressed the mechanism, and saw the bookshelf unfold towards the two plates, revealing a seemingly ordinary black wooden box.
Shen Cong held the black wooden box in his arms and returned to Old Lady Shen step by step.
Old lady Shen took the black wooden box with trembling hands, and gently stroked it: "Your Royal Highness, Manman, King Jin died in my Shen Mansion, my great-great-grandfather is afraid that many forces will be unfavorable to you, this black wooden box is the gold medal given by the emperor when my great-great-grandfather rescued the emperor." ”
He handed the black wooden box to Qin Ze, "Please also ask Your Highness to put it away, if you can use it, it will be the best." ”
Qin Ze took the black wooden box, and his mood gradually became heavy.
Old lady Shen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "You all have to be fine, my old man will be at ease." ”
After saying this, he slowly closed his eyes.
Everyone was frightened, and Dr. Tian quickly stepped forward to probe his pulse, and after a while, he breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to everyone: "The old lady thought she was tired and fell asleep." ”
The hearts of the people slowly returned to their stomachs.
It was already evening when the Shen couple came all the way, and when they came out of the old lady's courtyard, everyone rested after eating.
At night, Zou Shigao came to Qin Ze again and asked a lot of questions before leaving the Shen Mansion.
"Lord Zou is working hard," Qin Ze sent Zou Shigao to the door and explained the situation of Old Lady Shen, "If you want to interrogate the people in the Shen Mansion, you need to come over early tomorrow." ”
Zou Shigao arched his hand: "Tomorrow morning, the official will come over to ask for some details and say goodbye." ”
Zou Shigao rushed from the capital to Yangzhou, turned the axis for two days and one night, and fell asleep after returning to the inn.
Early in the morning of the second day, I got up as soon as the sky was bright, and after freshening up at will, I went to the Shen Mansion again.
His bloodshot eyes were shining, and after Zou Shigao entered the Shen Mansion, he first met Shen Cong, Doctor Tian and the crown princess Fu Yuanyuan, and after inquiring alone, he went to the courtyard of the old lady Shen.
As one of the important figures in this case, Zou Shigao could not miss his interrogation.
However, the moment he saw Old Lady Shen, Rao is heart was as hard as iron, and he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
After questioning the confession at Mrs. Shen, Zou Shigao quickly left with the newly obtained information to verify on the spot.
However, just as he stepped out of the gate of the Shen Mansion, the mournful cries of the people of the Shen Mansion came from behind him.
Old Lady Shen passed away.
Zou Shi paused, closed his eyes, turned the words of Old Lady Shen in his mind, sighed for a long time, and strode away.
Capital.
When Zou Shigao arrived in Yangzhou yesterday, Zhen Guogong had just received a secret report of Qin Xu's bad news.
He locked himself in his study alone for nearly an hour before a few henchmen were summoned to talk to him.
"King ...... Jin"
When the henchmen learned of Qin Xu's bad news, they all looked at each other in shock.
Qin Xu, the prince of Jin, is the core figure of their Zhenguo Gong faction, and the Zhenguo Gong has been planning for so many years in order to pull the prince off the horse, and then push the prince of Jin to that position.
Now the great cause has not been accomplished, but the prince of Jin has died in a foreign land inexplicably, this, what is this?
Several henchmen glanced at each other in disbelief and lowered their heads to listen to the orders of the Zhenguo Gong.
"The prince of Jin was shot by the crown princess in the Shen Mansion of Yangzhou City," Zhen Guogong's voice was low, Rao was able to shake three times by stomping his feet in the court, but he still couldn't help but take a deep breath, "This matter, you can't just forget it." ”
Qin Xu buried chess pieces in the Shen Mansion behind his back, and he had already heard of it.
It's just that he thought it was Qin Xu's petty fight, and he didn't take it too seriously.
This time, Qin Xu went to Yangzhou without asking him in advance.
In his opinion, Qin Xu has already become an adult, and it is not a bad thing to have his own plans.
And with so many dead soldiers with him, he must be safe.
The treasury of the Shen Mansion, I think he also had thoughts back then.
It was only when he knew that Emperor Qingyuan cared for the Shen Mansion, so he didn't make a move.
If Qin Xu can win the vault in one fell swoop, it will not only be a good experience for him, but also a big boost.
He would have thought that this would be the farewell of heaven and man.
Zhen Guogong thought about his grandson, who had been cultivated for many years, and couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.
"Lord Mo of Yangzhou personally escorted the relevant people back to Beijing," he said slowly, "but the crown prince, the crown princess and other people in the Shen Mansion still stayed in the Shen Mansion and were not escorted into Beijing." ”
"The Holy Lord of this case will definitely arrange for the Dali Temple, the Criminal Department and the Zongren Mansion to hear it together, and my lord," he looked at the Dali Temple Qing Heping, "You immediately take people to Yangzhou City and extract all the criminals into Beijing." ”
and the adults are busy with the hand.
Zhen Guogong said again: "The prince's side in this case will definitely not be arrested, so let people carefully verify it, and don't let the prince bite back." ”
"All parties in the capital have made arrangements in advance," Zhen Guogong swept through everyone, "There is no room for error in this matter." ”
Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!" ”
The mayor of Zhenguo took a breath and said word by word: "Whoever causes my grandson to die tragically, let whoever fill in the funeral." Let's all go down! ”
The matter of Dali Siqing and his lord quietly rushing to Yangzhou City with people and horses reached the ears of Emperor Qingyuan that night.
According to common sense, whether it is the Criminal Department or Dali Temple to send people to Yangzhou City to verify the case, this matter should be ordered by Emperor Qingyuan himself before it can be acted.
In order to get favorable evidence as soon as possible, Zhenguo Gong directly skipped Emperor Qingyuan and sent people out, which shows his power in the court.
"Good, good." Emperor Qingyuan slapped the secret fold on the dragon case, "Let me see if peace is strong, or Zou Shigao is stronger." ”
