Chapter 245: Letter from Huzhou
Chapter 245: Letter from Huzhou
dragged on for a month to deal with it, Guo Minan didn't have such a big heart, let alone that big courage.
Qin Lingxin's jade pendant is not only the intention of the Son of Heaven to value the Guangyang Palace, but also the significance of being an important town in the northwest border.
This time in the Huzhou murder case, Du Qiya dared not to press it, and after a few months, knowing that Li Yan came forward, the matter could be regarded as a conclusion, in fact, Du Qiya's courage was not too small, after all, Du Qiya himself did not know the severity of the relationship, but he still did it.
But in Wei Luan's opinion, putting the matter of this jade pendant on Du Qiya's body, he was so bold that he didn't dare to drag it out for a month, let alone a month of work, even ten days and half a month, he didn't dare.
Once this jade pendant falls into the hands of some bad people, so that people with ulterior motives can use it, it is amazing.
Wei Luan was a little flustered for a while, and after thinking about this, the heart that was originally unstable became even more flustered.
She climbed her little hand, pulled Li Yan's cuffs, and shook it again.
Li Yan could feel an external force pulling, turned to look at her, and saw that her face was pale: "What's wrong with you?" ”
He didn't hold her hand with his backhand, and he stabilized her figure.
In fact, Wei Luan is not untenable, and she is also stable, but in Li Yan's eyes, her face is very worrying.
Wei Luan Fang had a feeling of dizziness coming up, but he could barely hold it down, and when he saw the worry in Li Yan's eyes, he replied with a reassuring smile: "Do you think that Governor Guo will have already presented this matter to the Imperial Palace, after all, that jade pendant...... You told me at the time that if I had the opportunity to take it to the northwest in the future, it might bring me a lot of benefits. When His Royal Highness the King of Guangyang was fighting outside, how majestic he was in the army, those old troops still recognized him, if this jade pendant really fell into the hands of someone with a heart......"
She swallowed her saliva as she said: "I'm afraid that Governor Guo is worried about this matter, and I am in a hurry to present the matter to the Imperial Palace, if it alarms the capital and makes His Majesty know, what should I do?" ”
When she said this, Wei Ziqi's face darkened: "Does this jade pendant still have anything to do with the Northwest Army?" ”
He finished asking a word, but no one answered him, and he became more and more eager in his heart, urging him to ask.
Wei Luan was really weak at this time, his neck shrunk for a while, he pursed his lips, and told Wei Ziqi what Li Yan said to her before.
Wei Ziqi really clenched his fists, and released them slightly, repeating this several times, he stared at Wei Luan's handsome little face, and his hand was suddenly raised.
The slap spread out and fell almost instantly, but it didn't land on Wei Luan's face.
Li Yan's face was pale, his eyes flashed with a gloomy owl, and he grabbed Wei Ziqi's wrist tightly.
He gritted his teeth, and when he spoke, his voice was full of coldness, without a trace of warmth: "In front of me, you still dare to do it?" ”
Wei Ziqi struggled to break free, but he couldn't break free from Li Yan's hands, he was secretly frightened, he never thought that Li Yan had so much strength.
He knew that Li Yan was born in the royal family and had practiced since he was a child, but it was also a fact that he was pampered, and he didn't practice every day, where did he get such great strength at a young age.
Wei Ziqi took a deep breath and tried to struggle again, but he still couldn't get rid of Li Yan's clamps.
So he gritted his teeth: "Your Highness, I discipline my own sister, I shouldn't need His Highness to interfere, right?" ”
He raised his voice and asked, but Wei Luan's eyes were already red.
She didn't feel wronged, she knew why her eldest brother was so angry.
She lost such a valuable thing, if the matter has reached the front of the emperor, the Wei family will no longer have the power to return to heaven, if His Majesty moves his mind, it is not a problem to raid the house and destroy the door, maybe His Royal Highness the King of Guangyang will come forward to intercede, after all, the thing was also Qin Lingxin wanted to stay, and the matter was still caused by them, and it may not be able to calm the anger of the Son of Heaven, then it has to be said.
And Wei Luan knows best, His Majesty has never had much of a good impression of the Wei family, with her, what kind of good impression can His Majesty have? The most favorite princess of Qi in His Majesty's mind has always been Qin Lingxin alone, but His Majesty can't pull Li Yan back to his mind, and he doesn't want to get into trouble with Li Yan, which makes each other feel uncomfortable, and the Queen Mother is in a dilemma in the middle, so it's really not so necessary.
But now that there is such a big crime as the Wei family, as long as Your Majesty moves his mind, the Wei family will no longer exist, this is not something that Li Yan's intercession can be quelled, and no one can save them.
She had red eyes but didn't want to cry, the eldest brother wanted to beat her, but the slap was already raised high, which angered Li Yan, and she cried again, but it just added fuel to the fire, making Li Yan more and more angry, and felt that she was wronged to the extreme.
It was Wei Luan who endured it desperately, and then dragged Li Yan's wrist: "You let go of my eldest brother, when this kind of thing happens, he is anxious, and besides, I did it wrong...... If I didn't accept that kind of thing at the beginning, it wouldn't have caused today's disaster, or if I did, I wouldn't let anyone know about it, and I would put it away secretly. ”
Li Yan was unwilling, but she tried to pull him away with a lot of force, and he was afraid that she would hurt herself, so he let go of his hand: "Don't go too far!" ”
These words were thrown on Wei Ziqi's face, and Wei Ziqi received a sentence, and the resentment and anger in his heart became heavier.
It's not that he doesn't feel sorry for Wei Luan, he has grown so big since he was a child, except for his father, he feels the most sorry for this sister, and he was willing to beat her.
But the mistake she made this time is really ......
Wei Ziqi's face tightened, and the corners of his mouth were flattened, as if he was trying to calm his emotions, trying to eliminate the anger that was almost overwhelming.
After about half a cup of tea, he exhaled slowly, and his chest rose and fell again: "Your Highness blames me for wanting to do it, and keeps saying that I am excessive, doesn't Your Highness know in his heart, the stakes are very high, how important is this matter?" If one is not good, our Wei family is guilty of raiding the house and destroying the door, doesn't His Royal Highness know? ”
Yes, of course yes.
Li Yan put his hands behind his back, but still subconsciously stopped in front of Wei Luan, blocking Wei Luan slightly, although he saw Wei Ziqi's eyebrows and heart jumping, he didn't mean to move at all: "I understand, so I just said it, send a letter to Guo Min'an." ”
"If ......"
"Big brother, it's useless to say what ifs now." Wei Luan stopped her, and she also knew what Wei Ziqi wanted to say.
What if it's too late? It's too late to stop Guo Min'an's tone, his recital has already been sent to the capital, so it's too late.
But since it's too late, what's the use of standing here and talking too much?
She thought about it and shook her head: "Let's send a letter to Governor Guo's mansion first, now I can only hope that he has not reported this matter to the capital, and I hope that he will see Li Yan's face and have enough tolerance for our Wei family, but we don't know how much tolerance this can have." ”
……
It was already four days after Guo Minan received the letter from Huzhou.
At that time, the Wei family still had the officials of the prefect's yamen to guard the shift, and there were no more people coming and going in front of the Wei family, and it was cold and desolate.
Guo Min'an has had a headache for many days for the Wei family's affairs, the jade pendant of the county lord of Yuanle was lost in the Wei family, and he has not found anything back until now, and there is not even a clue at all, the Wei family house should be tried, and the question should be asked, hindering the face of the Qi Wangfu, he did not dare to be punished, for fear that His Royal Highness the King of Qi would return to Qizhou and come to him for trouble.
The errand of Qizhou is not easy to do - His Royal Highness the King of Qi invited himself to the fiefdom of Qizhou back then, and it took so long to get his wish fulfilled, but it was also from that time that he knew that his errand would be difficult to do in the future.
In fact, over the years, the Wei family has always been a duty, occasionally some small fights, such a person, he turned a blind eye and passed, although the king of Qi is not there, but the second girl of the Wei family, the weight is always there, although he is a four-grade prefect, it is indispensable to take a look at the face of King Qi.
Later, it was even better, King Qi simply ran to Qizhou, and King Qi stared everywhere, how many years have been like a day, and his mind about the Wei family's Ah Luan has not changed, he treats it as a treasure, holds it in the palm of his hand and protects it, even with the Wei family, the tide is rising, and his status is even more different than before, even he sees Wei Ye on weekdays, isn't he still polite?
Wei Ye is a measured person, and he will never take Qiao Tuo in front of him, but he doesn't dare to dictate in front of others, saying that this prefect is really a wretch.
Even now that there is such a case, he thinks that he does not dare to hand over the fold to the capital, for fear that His Royal Highness the King of Qi will "settle accounts after the autumn".
It stands to reason that he tried his best to do this kind of thing, but he couldn't deal with it, he didn't find it, and if he dragged it on, he was afraid that something would happen, so he went back to the top, and naturally investigated from above, but in this way, the Wei family would be in big trouble, if the Wei family couldn't keep it, and there were eggs under the nest, the Wei family's Ah Luan naturally couldn't keep it, even if the King of Qi was helpless at that time, could he not trouble him at that time?
Guo Minan had a headache, and he was sitting in the back hall at this time, pressing his temples with his fingertips.
Outside, a servant trotted close to the direction of the door, and was unprepared for a while, pretending to be a three-legged high at the door, and the flowers on it almost didn't fall down, which naturally alarmed Guo Min'an in the house.
He is not a strict person on weekdays, but today is the time of upset, when he heard the movement outside, and suddenly raised his voice: "What bastard thing is sneaking around outside!" ”
The official didn't intend to be sneaky at all, he came openly, this letter came from Huzhou, and it was clearly said that His Royal Highness the King of Qi was going to hand it over to their lords, what was he so sneaky?
It's just that I inadvertently made a big fuss.
He knew that the adults were anxious about the affairs of the Wei family these days, although he didn't know what happened to the Wei family, but how many days had passed, and the people surrounding the Wei Mansion had not withdrawn, so it could be seen that this matter would not be small.
The adults were upset, and he also disturbed the adults, and he could only bear such a scolding in vain.
He stood and bent his waist: "My lord, His Royal Highness King Qi sent a letter from Huzhou, saying that it was to be handed over to your lord personally." ”
Guo Min'an in the room was startled, stood up quickly, and the teacup in his hand moved, the small white porcelain cup rolled twice, and shattered in response, the tea leaves in the cup were scattered all over the ground, and most of the hot tea was spilled on the hem of his official uniform.
He walked out quickly, and when he reached the door, he raised his hand, and the two carved doors were opened, and the light from outside the room spilled in, and his eyes were so shining that he could hardly open them.
When the official outside saw him come out, his face was not good, so he naturally didn't dare to smile, but just held the envelope in his hand and handed it up.
He was always bent on his waist, and now he bowed down more and more, and while saluting, he handed over the things: "I just delivered it, and I said it was in a hurry." ”
Hurry, of course King Qi will be in a hurry.
Guo Minan took the letter with a dark face, he really guessed correctly, and said that the Wei family took so much effort to send the news out, how could King Qi be indifferent, sure enough, this letter was sent back so quickly.
When the Wei family wanted to send the news out, he knew it, and he didn't ask anyone to stop him.
He also has selfish intentions in this matter, the news is sent out, the king of Qi still has a room for redemption, and he has enough room for the king of Qi to recover, so he has a way out, at least in front of His Royal Highness the king of Qi, there is such a way to retreat, if the news of the Wei family is really sealed, and they are not asked to send the news of the accident, then he will not be able to drag on the day, sooner or later he will have to make things bigger, he can't stand it, he has to alarm the capital.
Guo Minan took a deep breath and waved his hand at the servant: "You go down, you don't need to serve here." ”
The corners of the officer's mouth moved, and he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he simply swallowed it back, took the words behind him curtly, bowed again, and turned his head and left the back hall.
Guo Minan watched his back go away, and until he couldn't see it, he reflexively walked back to the hall and closed a door.
The letter was pinched in his hand, and the weight was heavy, and he could almost guess what His Royal Highness King Qi would say, but he had a glimmer of hope......
Waiting to sit down on the official hat chair on the side, Guo Minan opened the letter with his hand, stared at it intently for a long time, took a deep breath, and spit it out for a long time.
The place where this letter was signed was not only the name of His Royal Highness King Qi, but even the seal of His Royal Highness King Qi was stamped, Guo Min'an breathed a sigh of relief, His Royal Highness really attached great importance to this case, and even took out the seal, this was just a letter sent back to him in private, so why bother......
