Chapter 651: Farewell in the End
After a cold rain, it will be sunny for a few days.
On this day, because the weather was still good, Li ordered Luo's mother to open the cage, take the few half-old sweaters outside to dry, if there are still those that can be worn again, they are still collected after drying, and if they can't be worn, they will be rewarded to the next person during the New Year.
The master and servant were discussing, and Ziqi walked in with a white curtain, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qiqi, Mrs. Yongchenghou sent a mother to send a post." ”
Li was busy calling for invitation, and Luo's mother combed her hair and changed her clothes, and when she cleaned up, the mother also entered the house.
"The slave husband's surname is Wang, and he hasn't been with our wife for long, so I will say hello to my wife." The Wang's mother was also obedient, first reported to her home, and then squatted down to salute, and behaved generously, quite the style of a wealthy servant.
Li smiled and said, "Forgive me for being clumsy, I haven't been to your house for a few days, and I haven't been able to recognize you." ”
Mother Wang didn't dare to say it in a hurry, so she sat diagonally on the small pestle that Li was rewarding, and said with a smile: "Madame said, I want the weather to be sunny for a few days, please ask Madame and the girl's house to enjoy the plum blossoms." Hou Ye also gave a post to Lord Chen. ”
As she spoke, she picked up the worship box held by the little girl behind her and presented the invitation.
Li's mother ordered Luo's mother to accept it, and said with a smile: "I was saying that it was okay to stay at home today, but it happened that your wife came to the post, and it was rare that she was in good spirits, so she would go to disturb her." ”
Seeing that she should go, Wang's mother was overjoyed, sat down for a while, and then got up to say goodbye.
Li rewarded her with a purse, ordered someone to send her away, and then dismissed everyone, pulled Luo's mother and said: "It's only been a few days, and there have been a lot of people in that house, and I don't know much about it." ”
The Xu family has been in charge of the middle feed for a long time, and the original old lady Xu's manpower is no longer needed, as the so-called son of heaven and a courtier, and the same is true for the back house.
Luo's mother thought more, and said in a low voice: "I heard that all the mansions are checking the manpower now, in the end, the two families are making too big trouble, who is not afraid?" ”
Mingxin's pseudonym Ma Yue'er and infiltrated Xingjibo's mansion are already well known, and many families are afraid that they will also be exploited, so they send away those who don't know the roots.
Only the old one went, and there was a new one to add in, so a few people who often walked around in the big households in Beijing have now become fragrant and sweet, and flowers and butterflies are flying in various houses, and the population price code is also rising, and it really makes a lot of money.
Since the dust settled on the eldest princess and other cases, Li's heart has also been put down, and at this time, listening to Luo's mother talking about the past, he patted his heart and said: "Thank God, in the end, that Xiangyunzhai is fine, and Ah Man has not been dragged in, and I am very content." ”
Saying that, she sighed again, and her eyes showed sympathy: "I just pity the old man Han, he died of illness halfway through Beijing, and the Han family is really unlucky. ”
At the time of the case, because it was found out that the poison used by Cheng was brought by Han's dowry, Cheng recruited Han Duanli, and Han Duanli was involved in the case, and the third division sent personnel to Penglai County to escort him to Beijing for trial.
But who would have thought that he was old, he was infected with wind and cold on the road, and he was even more frightened, and he died of illness before he arrived in the capital. Mrs. Han was already in poor health and had been bedridden, and she got this bad news, and she died in a few days.
Two elders died in a row, and Guo Wan was stripped of his title, and the Han family was in chaos.
That Han Xu, the eldest master of Han, is just a nerd who studies hard, and he doesn't know how to do business at all, and he will soon be unable to suppress those who do things underneath, if it weren't for the help of Shao Zhong, the eldest girl of the Han family, Han Yaoyi, is even more shrewd and capable, but I am afraid that those people in the clan will be able to eat his family alive.
Rao is like this, Xiangyunzhai's business is not as good as before, and the Han family is no longer in the past.
Luo's mother poured a cup of hot tea, handed it to Li, and sighed softly: "Yes, that Guo Ruzi entered Huangjue Temple, and the two elders of the Han family died of illness at the same time, the Han family really hurt their vitality this time, and I don't know if they can survive it." ”
Li Shi took the teacup, but he didn't drink it, his eyes stopped outside the window, and after a while, a layer of sorrow gathered on the tip of his eyebrows: "Aman is going out again." ”
Luo's mother knew what she meant, but she didn't dare to answer, so she chattered twice and stood aside.
Chen Ying did go out early in the morning.
She went to see Guo Wan.
Guo Wan will officially enter the Huangjue Temple for retreat today, and Chen Ying presented a letter to Emperor Yuan Jia, and got his consent, so he went to say goodbye to her.
Chen Ying's family affair will be in February next year, and after getting married, he will go to Ningxia.
Sitting in the carriage, looking out the window at the pedestrians one after another, the carriages and horses returning, Chen Ying was not unemotional.
Finding the truth and finding out the facts of the case is her creed in this life. And the truth of the eldest princess's case is likely to be lost in the years and become an eternal mystery.
Regrets?
Yes.
But it's not urgent.
The facts of the case are not complicated.
What is complicated is just the mixed situation, politics, and imperial heart.
The first two are light, and the latter are heavy.
It is not so much that Chen Ying was unable to find out the facts of the case, but rather that the case became a mystery under the personal intervention of Emperor Yuan Jia.
Perhaps, to a certain extent, Emperor Yuan Jiadi's decision also gave Chen Ying a breathing space, so that she did not have to fall into the torture of her own heart because of her choice.
Is the truth important?
Of course, it is important, but who should preside over justice?
When truth and justice are opposed, how do you choose?
If the truth is chosen, justice will never judge.
But on the other hand, is it right to trample on the law and sacrifice innocent lives in the name of justice?
The answer is also no.
However, if you think about it again, if there is no justice above the law, the wicked will run rampant, and evil deeds will never be prohibited.
Is this also true?
The answer is still no.
So, we go back to the original proposition.
Which is more important, truth and justice, justice and law, the wicked and the lives of the innocent? Which is lighter?
Chen Ying couldn't find an answer.
At least in this case, she couldn't find an answer.
These days, she often asks herself, is this so-called eternal mystery really unsolvable?
The answer is still no.
The puzzles are easy to solve. But what about unraveling?
It's just to make more innocent people a burial object for a power struggle.
This is not Chen Ying's wishes.
She believed that even if Mr. Detective was here, he should have hoped that it would be over.
It's just that sometimes, the relationship between justice, truth, law, evil and good, will make Chen Ying feel confused.
As on the other side of the infinite space and time, Mr. Detective sits in his office, smoking his pipe, contemplating the confusion he has experienced as he handles cases whose truth has been blurred by humanity and reality. (https:)
