Although her heart suddenly became nervous, Lu Jiayue's expression was still calm, and she said to the two little guys in a calm tone: "What the hell is going on—you guys should talk about it carefully." ”

"The minions heard the rumors outside, saying that the salt tax case had been concluded this morning, so they rushed to the Jin Yu Health Department to inquire, but there was a strict gatekeeper, and the minions did not dare to get too close, only to listen to the gossip on the side of the street, saying that the three law divisions had approved Guan Ming and Tong Baili to conspire to embezzle nearly two million taels of ink and salt tax silver, and Tong Baili also had a house in Kyoto City, and Jin Yuwei copied out many huge silver tickets and boxes of large gold ingots in his house of the two of them... Although Tong Baili is dead, the heirs of him and Guan Ming have also been imprisoned, and the heirs are to be sentenced to exile to Yunnan and Tibet as slaves, and the family members are to be sentenced to be lowly and confiscated. In addition, nearly 100 officials of all sizes were implicated in the household department and the two Huai salt transports, because the Holy Lord had issued an edict to severely punish the officials involved in the case, and the three legal divisions were all sentenced to heavy punishment for crimes.

Lu Jiayue let out a long breath.

The case was finally successfully concluded, and the three law divisions and Jin Yuwei really acted ruthlessly, such a shocking case, only half a month after the trial began, the dust had settled.

It's just that it sounds like it doesn't mention a word about King Wei, who is the initiator of the case, and Guan Ming was poisoned?

"Is that all the people outside say—have you ever mentioned King Wei?" Lu Jiayue hurriedly asked.

The two little guys can't help but slander again... Why did the young lady pay special attention to King Wei?

Quietly glancing at each other, they all shook their heads and said, "The minions listened carefully, and they didn't hear anyone mention King Wei..."

No one mentions King Wei, but why is that?

Outside Song's study that day, he was sticking under the window, but he really heard it, and the relevant Ming testified that King Wei was involved in the salt tax corruption case, and there was also the testimony of the jailer, which can prove that the king of Wei had bribed him to poison Guan Ming and kill him. The truth is like this, could it be that the people of the Three Law Divisions were also afraid of the power of King Wei, and did not write the truth into the case file, and listened to it?

And what about the people of Jin Yuwei?

Jin Yuwei was the saint's confidant guard, holding the imperial power charter, and he could directly present the various crimes of the King of Wei to the imperial front without consulting with the three law divisions.

If Jin Yuwei's people really did this, there should be some news related to King Wei in Kyoto City.

But no one mentioned King Wei at all.

It can be seen that this salt tax case, in the eyes of the subjects of the world, has nothing to do with the King of Wei.

What else do you say about Zheng Zheng to clear his name, according to the facts... It's all a lie!

Lu Jiayue clutched the silk handkerchief in her hand tightly, and her fingertips were deeply embedded in her palm, and there were a few red blood marks, and she still didn't feel pain.

My heart was full of only wandering and desolation.

Still useless... Still useless... No matter how hard he tried, he still failed to suppress King Wei.

If King Wei is allowed to continue to hold the same authority as in his previous life, in the future, the Qu family, his father, and himself will inevitably suffer another catastrophe like in his previous life.

But what exactly do you have to do to change the fate of your previous life?

I've really tried my best.

On the side, Xin Zhu saw Lu Jiayue's uncertain expression, and couldn't help but worry again.

“... Miss, after that, why don't you let the two of you go out first. ”

Lu Jiayue's eyes were gloomy, and she waved her hand lightly, as if she couldn't even say a word.

The two little guys have gradually become accustomed to Lu Jiayue's "fickle" temperament, and her words and deeds are now the same as before, and the two little guys are more and more in awe of her, although they have all kinds of doubts and worries because of what she did secretly, but the two of them are slaves, except for listening to the master's orders, they don't even dare to ask more, and they shouldn't be.

After all, Xiaocheng was more discerning, and when he went, he said: "Don't worry, Miss, the minions will go out to inquire again, and if there is any more news, come and report it to Miss immediately." ”

It's another sleepless night.

When I got up in the morning, I heard that my uncle Qu Hong had returned from the Golden Feather Health Department, and Lu Jiayue was a little more energetic.

After having some breakfast casually in Chuntang House, he went to his aunt Meng's main house.

Originally, I thought that the salt tax case had been concluded, Qu Hong would live away for a few days, and when he returned home, he would have to talk to the Meng family and his wife, and he might be able to hear some news from the sidelines. Unexpectedly, the maids said that Qu Hong came back and had breakfast, washed and changed clothes, and hurried into the palace again.

Lu Jiayue pounced, and her heart was even more depressed.

Qia Meng wanted to go to the room to say hello, so she and Qu Ying went with Meng.

However, I also want to go to the room to be lively, accompany Mrs. Qu, talk and laugh, it is better than being alone in Chuntang House and sad.

Even if it's useless, at least you can get a temporary relief.

When I came to Mrs. Qu's banquet room, it was still the fourth lady Fang who was by Mrs. Qu's side.

Everyone was seated, gossiping and laughing, but they were all household chores, how to go up and down, and prepare for the New Year.

I heard Fang's smile on the old lady Qu: "Yesterday, the Zhuangzi in Changping sent New Year's goods, I took a look, it is richer than in previous years, especially the pheasant cubs, although they all look gray-faced, peeled out, the meat color is very delicate, I have told the small kitchen, at noon to make a crispy fried five-spiced chicken breast for the old lady, boil a pot of chicken soup, put some mushrooms into it, and then fry a plate of tender green vegetable sprouts, with a bowl of fragrant glutinous rice, keep the old lady to eat sweet. ”

Mrs. Qu couldn't help laughing: "It's all ordinary things, how come it is that once you tap it a few times, it sounds extraordinarily comfortable, I just had breakfast, and it seems that I feel hungry again." ”

Everyone laughed.

Meng said: "This is the blessing of the old lady, with the four brothers and sisters, the old lady can even eat an extra bowl of food every day, unlike us who eat less, and the old lady has no appetite." ”

Fang Shi smiled again: "Only the old lady likes to have me by his side, these girls in the family hate me, if I am coaxed, I am afraid that they will eat one by one, and they will not be able to wear their clothes in the coming day, but they will come to me to compensate for their clothes." ”

The crowd laughed even more.

Although Lu Jiayue was full of worries, she couldn't help but smile.

Mrs. Qu was happy, and when she saw that Lu Jiayue and Qu Ying were also there, she smiled and said, "Add a few more dishes at noon, and leave these two girls to eat with me." As he spoke, he looked at Lu Jiayue with a smile, "The little girl's family, eat more, it's time to grow your body." ”

Everyone laughed and laughed, and suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside, and they came straight to the banquet room.

When they heard this, they all looked to the door.

But it was Fang's other big maid, Bao Jing, with a panicked look on her face, standing under the curtain, and shouting in a panicked voice, "Fourth lady!" ”

Seeing that she was so ignorant of the rules, Fang was about to pull down his face, but he heard Baojing say again: "-It's water!" Fourth lady, third lady's yard is out of water!"
