Chapter 259: Good Opportunity

Guo Min'an left the mansion and didn't bring anyone with him, so he went to the Wei Mansion again alone.

Wei Ye went out and never came back, and when he came to the door, only Wang Chuan came to greet him.

It's just that Guo Min'an's face is very ugly, Wang Chuan politely greeted him for a long time, and he opened his mouth, but he was not ambiguous, and he was about to take Wei Kite for questioning.

But he said it well, and only said that he took care of the dignity of the Wei family and the reputation of the eldest girl, so he came to the door in person to ask, instead of sending someone to the Wei family to carry the eldest girl to the lobby of the mansion.

Where did Wang Chuan dare to make his own decision on this matter, he could only blindly stop it first, saying that he would inform the Zhang family.

Fortunately, since Guo Min'an planned to come to interrogate in person, he really didn't have the heart to embarrass the Wei family in this matter, so he followed him to the main hall and waited, and let him send someone in to return to the Zhang family.

If something like this happens, Wang Chuan is not at ease when he hands it over to others, no matter what Sun Xi says, he is still the second head of the Wei family, plus he is going to do everything to the second girl, and now the prefect is going to take the eldest girl for questioning, he can't be unreasonable, so he hurriedly sent someone to call Sun Xi, and explained to Sun Xi, and asked him to go back to Zhang's family, and then he reflexively returned to the main hall and accompanied Guo Min'an's side.

Zhang was also taken aback when he heard this, the tea cup in his hand was crooked, and the tea that Yuan Shou had just served spilled most of it: "What did you say?" Didn't you just bring back a few girls from our house, and even Qi Niang took them away, why do you have to ask now......

No, it was just that I took those girls away and pulled the matter to Wei Yuan, right?

Zhang pressed his sideburns: "Sun Xi, you handled the letter to Huzhou before, you went to find someone else, even if you give more silver, tell me to come to the counter and invite the old man's house." The prefect wants to see the kite for questioning, but I can't stop it. ”

Sun Xi's heart sank.

Well, he knew that it was impossible to count on this lady.

It's a stepmother, so it's always possible to stop it, right? No matter how bad it is, it is a serious master, the housewife, the master is not at home, the prefect has already come to the door, and he is going to take the eldest girl to ask with a mouth, what is it for, she, the housewife, came forward to ask two sentences, it's not too much, right?

But she's fine......

Sun Xi took a deep breath and responded: "That lady, do you want the slave to inform the eldest girl?" ”

In fact, since the accident in the Wei family, Zhang's heart is not as good as day by day, half a month has passed, how can she still have the heart to deal with these things, and Wei Ye did not take her as a confidant, such a big matter, she has never discussed countermeasures with her, and she wanted to send news to Huzhou that day, or discussed it with Wei Yuan's father and daughter, and she only knew it afterwards.

She was empty before, took the power in her hands, and asked Wei Yuan to take charge of the house, she could endure it, but such a big thing, one can't get it right, and no one in the family can run away, but Wei Ye still doesn't take her seriously.

Zhang squinted, and his eyes dodged slightly: "You go and tell her, so that she has a number in her heart, and then go ahead to see Governor Guo." ”

Sure enough, he pushed the girl out without mercy - Sun Xi lowered his head, his face was pale, and he didn't look up at her again, and the little idea left in his heart was completely gone.

He hurriedly bowed to Zhang, then said nothing, and went straight out of Zhang's house and went to Wei Yuan's courtyard.

Yuan Shou saw him go out, his back was stiff, and he sighed: "Madam, after all, the eldest girl is still the eldest daughter of the Wei family, Governor Guo said that he wanted to ask, you don't stop him, let the master know......"

"What if you get it? How could it be worse now? Zhang didn't tell her to finish her words at all, and interrupted her with a sideways look, "Wei Yuan has a big idea now, and the head of the family is also a good hand, dealing with the prefect of Guo, she should be handy, and she is not Ziyan, why should I show up for her, go to the front to see the prefect again, and say all the good things to the snake, and take care of her face?" ”

This is all angry talk, don't you still have to live your life?

Yuan Shou wrinkled his eyebrows and sighed: "Madame, this is going to be angry with the master." ”

"It's not that I want to be angry, it's that he doesn't take me as the head of the Wei family at all, and he sent a letter to Huzhou, but did he ask me?" Zhang gritted his teeth with hatred, and every word almost leaked out between his teeth, "Don't say it again, I don't take Wei Yuan anymore, whether it's a blessing or a curse is her own life, and it has nothing to do with me." I also instructed Sun Xi to send someone to the counter to ask the master to come home quickly, his own daughter, and asked him to protect it himself, I don't have that much ability. ”

……

But said that in the capital, Qin Zhao lived in the courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing for half a month, did not go to the court, and did not see anyone, the princess and the prince of the palace could not rest assured, and sent five or six groups of people to the courtyard to ask, but Qin Zhao only said that there was nothing to do, he wanted to be quiet, and he was unwilling to return to Beijing, and he asked too much, and he was impatient, so that the princess and the prince had no choice, so he had to let him go.

Originally, the emperor didn't see anyone for several days for him, thinking that he was sick, so he sent people from the imperial front to the Guangyang palace to inquire, and specially brought the imperial doctor, and later knew that he had gone out of the city and had lived in another hospital for several days, so he was naturally puzzled and sent someone to inquire, but the result was the same.

The emperor has been able to get by, concerned, and inquired, and he said that he wanted to be quiet and scattered, so it was all up to him.

Therefore, after half a month, Qin Zhao was also comfortable and peaceful.

On this day, Zheng Gui hurriedly entered the door from outside, almost trotting all the way, and went to Qin Zhao's study.

Qin Zhao heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside, and put down the scroll in his hand with his backhand, and before Zheng Gui could speak, he called him in first.

Zheng Gui also saved the salute, pushed open the door with his hand and went straight inside, with a panicked look on his face, and bowed: "Your Highness, something happened in Qizhou." ”

Qin Zhao's eyelids jumped suddenly, and he subconsciously buckled the armrest on the side: "Say it quickly." ”

He frowned at Zheng Gui's words, and his heart rose to his throat.

Zheng Guiluo pursed his lips: "I just got the news, the prefect's yamen sent people to surround the mansion, and no one from the Wei family was allowed to enter or leave, but for what, few people know, we can speak in the prefect's yamen also went to inquire, but I didn't ask why, Guo Zhifu hid it very well, only a few henchmen close to him knew why, and others didn't know." ”

Qin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief: "This is really strange, I know Guo Min'an, he is not a reckless person, His Majesty appointed him to come out of the lack of the prefect of Qizhou, I also told you, ask him to go to Qizhou to be the prefect, Your Majesty really thought about it, remember?" ”

Zheng Gui nodded and said, "You also praised him a lot." ”

"yes." Qin Zhao leaned back in his chair and squinted at Zheng Gui, "As usual, he is a cautious person, there is Li Yan in Qizhou, if it is not a very important matter, he will not embarrass the Wei family like this." The army mobilized the people, and transferred the officials of the yamen to surround the mansions and prevent anyone from entering or leaving. At the moment, Li Yan is not in Qizhou, but when he goes back, Guo Minan can't say why, he won't give up. ”

Zheng Guixin said who said no, his eyes rolled twice, and he said: "By the way, Your Highness, there is something even stranger." ”

Qin Zhao was stunned: "What?" ”

"Governor Guo went to the Wei family, and I don't know what to say to Wei Ye, but I took away the two girls who served Qi Niang and Wei Er Girl from the Wei family, as well as the girl with the most face next to Miss Wei, Guo Governor's Mansion took someone back to the mansion with the front foot, and Wei Ye went out on the back foot and went to the cabinet." Zheng Gui bowed again, "Our people have been following for a long time, Wei Ye is honest, he just went to the counter once, and he didn't go anywhere, but in the second half of the day, Guo Zhifu went to the Wei family again, and then a man wearing the clothes of a servant hurriedly went to the Wei family's shop to find Wei Ye, and I don't know what to say, Wei Ye hurried back home with a look on his face, and never came out again." ”

As he spoke, he secretly raised his eyes to look at Qin Zhao's face, and paused slightly: "The news was sent back by the flying pigeon, and the matter came out today, they didn't really take it seriously before, and it wasn't until today that the Guo Governor's Mansion took away the female dependents from the Wei family, and they realized that something was wrong and quickly sent the news back." ”

"Nonsense!" Qin Zhao took the case, "How did you explain to them?" It's been so long since it came back to you, it's just not like it's been a big deal! ”

Zheng Gui said: "It's unorthodox, but Your Highness, now is not the time to get angry and lose your temper, this is not right." ”

Of course not, where is the need for him to say.

Qin Zhao had a gloomy face: "It's strange enough that Guo Minan dared to surround the Wei family, and today he took a few girls from the Wei family's house, even Qi Niang was among them, this is not an ordinary thing, the Wei family's Ah Luan, when he was in Beijing in the past, he was extremely protective of Qi Niang, Guo Minan has also been the prefect of Qizhou for so many years, he won't know this, he rashly took people away, if he doesn't have a reason, I'm afraid that he will not be able to be thoughtful." ”

"That's what you're talking about, and there's ......," Zheng Gui said and spit again.

Qin Zhao has never been accustomed to seeing people struggling, what words can't be opened up, to say something like this, it's not like words.

But now he has a rare patience, because seeing Zheng Gui spitting like this, he subconsciously feels that there is something unspeakable: "What? What else? What else did Guo Minan do? ”

Zheng Gui nodded hurriedly: "Go to the Wei family's shop to find Wei Ye's officer, our people gave the silver and asked, asked him why he ran out to deliver the news to Wei Ye, he received the silver and said everything, the Wei family gave him the silver before, and sent the news of the Wei family's accident to Huzhou, and today he also received the silver, and asked Wei Ye to hurry back to the house for the Wei family." ”

"After spending so much silver, it's nothing to send news to Huzhou, but I quickly invited Wei Ye home...... What did Guo Minan do at the Wei family again? ”

Zheng Gui sighed again: "When Governor Guo came to the Wei family, he had something to ask the eldest girl Wei, and he was probably afraid that His Royal Highness the King of Qi would not spare him when he returned to Qizhou, so he didn't dare to ask someone to send the eldest girl to the hall for questioning, so he had to go to the Wei family to ask the eldest girl." ”

Qin Zhao immediately gasped.

A few girls are not worth anything, even Qi Niang is not worth anything, but what about Wei Yuan?

That's the eldest daughter of the Wei family, a deep boudoir noblewoman, where is it so good for people to mention it and ask questions?

What happened to the Wei family, and what evidence did Guo Minan have, daring to ask him to go to the Wei family again, and blatantly wanted to take Wei Yuan for questioning.

Qin Zhao paced back and forth with his hands behind his back: "Then the official doesn't know what happened?" Didn't hear the wind at all? ”

Zheng Gui shook his head and said no: "According to what he said, only the master and master of the government know about it, and then it is Lord Cao Lucao, and the rest of the people don't know, and this matter is really strictly hidden, and there is no leakage at all." ”

The master and master of the Qizhou Mansion are probably what Zheng Gui said before, Guo Min'an's henchmen.

But this Cao Lu......

"Is it the Qizhou Cao Lu who was on the list from high school six years ago?"

"Yes, that's him." Zheng Gui folded his fingers and calculated, "This Lord Cao should have had an accident more than two years ago and was dismissed, and later it was the Cao family who gave him the silver and donated a six-grade loose official to him in the Yamen of the Qizhou Prefect." ”

If you want to say that such a person can be regarded as Guo Min'an's confidant, then you can't say it, right? But since he is not a confidant, how did he know about the Wei family this time? What kind of medicine is being sold in Guo Min'an's gourd?

Qin Zhao restrained his footsteps and turned around to look at Zheng Gui: "Is there a way to pry open this Cao Lu's mouth?" ”

"There is a way, but I don't know if this Lord Cao eats or coercion, his Cao family is rich and has no shortage of silver, and it is probably impossible to buy him with silver." Zheng Gui touched the tip of his nose, "Tie people up, just do it without leaving a trace, and don't be afraid of him making trouble." Since Governor Guo didn't plan to let outsiders know about this matter, after hiding it for half a month, he asked someone to tie him up and confide everything out, so he naturally didn't dare to speak out, lest he get into trouble. ”

Qin Zhaoen nodded with a sigh: "Then you arrange it and order someone to do it, be quick." ”

Zheng returned and saluted again, and responded to his orders one by one, but he still stood there without moving.

Qin Zhao sighed: "Anything else?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, didn't you say before that you wanted to see Qi Niang, or if you wanted to find out what other way you wanted to talk to Qi Niang, so that you could ask about Mrs. Sun's difficult childbirth back then, as well as the life experience of Second Miss Wei?" He asked two rhetorical questions, and then looked up definitely, "Isn't it the best opportunity right now?" ”

Qin Zhao was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect this layer-

Wait until Qin Zhao comes back to his senses a little: "Send our people to prison?" "I want to talk to more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
