Chapter 53: The Yuan Pavilion
Qi Yixiao's hand that gradually warmed up in the stove was faintly visible on it, as if it had just fallen off after scabbing, and the pink nails seemed to unconsciously scratch these marks, and the expression on the face was covered with a veil.
"Niangniang, Qi Gongzi sent a letter from home." The person who came in the door looked flat, but there was a calmness, the hand covered with the traces paused, and slowly looked up at the person who was supposed to be preparing lunch, and the cool child would take the initiative to write to her...... Somewhat unexpected, probably...... Something happened.
"Was it sent by that kid from Maoyu?" Unconsciously, the meaning of the smile is implied, and every time the child calls her the third aunt, in fact, the seniority is still older, Maoyu is the son of her eldest nephew, just because she is a little younger, huh...... The third aunt is also very good.
"Back to Niangniang, I can see that Yu Gongzi wants to see you, but he just said a lot of inconvenience, and left." Chun'er took the coat on the edge of the bed, the thicker fabric looked warmer, and the mother didn't know how to take care of her body, not to mention that the old injury of the mother was even more difficult in this cold day.
When she was only in her early twenties, Niangniang entered the palace and saved the emperor's life in an accident, but she fell into the disability of her legs and feet, and Niangniang has survived very strong over the years, but fortunately, the emperor still attaches great importance to love and righteousness, not only the title of Niangniang, the good concubine, but also every time she is free, she will come to this Liangjing Hall to sit, but ...... The mother has never conceived an heir, and I don't know why.
"I didn't expect that child to grow up in a blink of an eye......" The person sitting obediently changed into a coat, Chun'er was really meticulous, and the corners of the skirt of the red dress were indeed a little wet with snow, "Chun'er, you have been with me for ten years." As if it were just a sigh of emotion, the person slowly opened the letter...... Sure enough, Liangyi, this child really has something to do to find her aunt.
Qi Yixiao had a smile on her face, looking at the neat handwriting on the letter, her nephew was also full of scriptures, but he didn't want to be an official...... But maybe it was specially arranged by the eldest brother.
"Chun'er, this cloud tea is still available, and the next time the emperor comes up, he must make a cup, so as not to be rude." The faint tone is still another elegant atmosphere that permeates the room in addition to the flame breath that slowly rises, and the things in the letter ...... Harem women are not allowed to interfere in politics, but if they use another way, it may be effective.
"Yes, slave remembers." The three of them enjoyed the quiet of winter among themselves, a time that was more rare than any other hour.
Yamen in the capital
"County master, Mr. Song is back, and people are already waiting outside the door."
The originally constricted brows of the person who was sorting out the case file immediately changed, and the joy revealed in his eyes was not concealed at all...... "Come on, Song staff, come in." The man got up at once.
The person who entered the room was dressed in green clothes, and if you looked closely, the clothes seemed to be wet, and the black hair was slightly messy behind him, but the whole expression was calm, and the person in front of him was ...... The main reason is that he is used to his often gloomy look, and he is a little unaccustomed to it.
"Staff Song, but something happened, this body is ......" and then immediately turned to the official on the side and said, "Quickly bring a clean dress for Song Staff to change." ”
"Yes" The person did not go to the door, but the person who entered the house slowly moved to the front of the county order, and saluted respectfully: "It's okay, but what's the matter with the county order?" ”
The person at the door seemed to take a look at the prefectural order, and continued to complete the order.
"Haven't Song staff heard about the murder that happened in the capital yesterday?" The expression on the face of the speaker was cautious, as if it was inappropriate to bring up the topic again. Just looking at the person in front of him, Song Chuchu's face still hasn't changed.
"Song Staff ......"
"The county order, the subordinates have heard about this matter when they return to Beijing, but the subordinates originally thought that it was not enough to embarrass the county order." This sentence...... Clearly and unceremoniously pointed out. But the people in the seat showed a satisfied look, as if this was what he wanted to hear.
"In this way, Song staff already has a good method."
Song Zhichu saluted slightly, with a little indifference in his eyes, this murder ...... I heard that the funeral of the General's Mansion has been done, such a speed is really suspicious, not to mention that the Chu family's Ogata Casino was closed, which is fatal for the Chu family's declining business.
If the purpose of this murder is to be achieved, there are not two ...... The Chu family and the General's Mansion, both parties in charge have probably fallen into a trap.
Merely...... What does this have to do with him.
"There are more than one of the four merchants in the capital, and the sky in the capital will not change, but if there is any wind in the general's mansion, the wind direction of this dynasty may be deviated, this is ...... The prefectural order should understand, right? Song Chuchu's expression was slightly gloomy, but the indifference in those eyes was really frightening, and the person in front of him was stunned for a moment, and every time he saw Song staff, he felt that he had never been familiar with this person...... Despite working together for four years.
"What does the Song staff mean...... The second son of the Chu family has already been sentenced to death. Chen Zhongyang subconsciously looked at the one that seemed to be able to smell blood on the side, in fact, the Chu family had a friendship with him on weekdays.
As far as he knew, there were only two bloodlines left in the Chu family, and the eldest son of the Chu family ...... The body has not been good since childhood.
"The subordinates didn't say that......" Song Chuchu noticed the movements of the person in front of him, but the news of the confession of the second son of the Chu family had already spread outside, and it was difficult for such a thing to come out of nowhere.
"That's ......" Chen Zhongyang stroked the sweat from his forehead, and his cheeks seemed to flush.
"There is also a Fu family behind the Chu family, and the relationship between the Fu family and the Qi and Chen families in business is not ordinary, the four families in the capital still seem to be a whole at present, the Chu family is not enough to set off any waves, but the four can, which may also be one of the reasons why the county order received the ban on business issued by the palace."
"General Lin did the funeral as soon as possible, probably because he didn't want the situation to develop as others imagined, but this does not mean that the old general's anger has subsided so much, after all, it is his only son."
"According to the subordinates, this murder case will be treated as an ordinary homicide, if there is evidence that the second son of the Chu family has committed the crime of murder, the county magistrate will handle it impartially." As soon as Song Zhizhi finished saying this, a person holding a suit of clothes at the door saluted in, Chen Zhongyang waved his hand, signaling the person to retreat, today's conversation is naturally not easy for a third person to hear.
"If you don't have the evidence......"
"If there is no evidence, adults should handle it fairly, this is innocent...... The most difficult to write. Song Zhichu glanced at the clothes he brought, his faint gaze fell on them, and finally he seemed to smile, he was a ...... Liars too.
Chen Zhongyang's tightly knit brows gradually calmed down because of the calm expression on the face of the person in front of him, if the Song staff said so, as the smallest official in the capital, it was better not to get involved.
"Handle it impartially...... That's for sure. People's confidence seemed to be full of all of a sudden, looking at the suddenly cheerful expression of the people in the seat, Song Zhichu walked over and picked up the clothes that were placed on the chair next to him, and his face showed ...... It seems to feel pretty good.
"My lord, my subordinates went down first, and this dress ...... Thank you, sir. Song Chuchu was polite, as if the seductive remarks just now did not exist, Chen Zhongyang nodded with satisfaction, he felt the temperament of the people around him clearly, and Song's staff were so strict when they talked about business. Handle the ...... impartially It's not difficult!
Song Zhizhi walked out of the yamen with a calm expression as when he first came, the green clothes on his body were still the same, and the clothes that were originally hanging on his arms in his hands had been left behind him......
"Thank you, thank you, childe......" Listening to the voice that was gradually weakening, the smile on Song Zhichu's face became more and more obvious, and the little beggar behind him unexpectedly got a brand new dress, and his face was full of stains and smiles.
"How?" But the person I met "by chance" around the corner looked at the people waiting as if they had come out of a mass grave...... It's cold and hopeless. The smile on Song Zhichu's face froze there, why did Lord Yuan send this person to meet him every time!
"It's done." It's better to respond earlier, or to leave earlier, people are silently muttering in their hearts, Hua Jinghuan glanced coldly at the person in front of him, and it seemed that this brought a cold wind.
Song Zhizhi looked at the person and turned around and left, a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face, the ranking on the Yuan Pavilion, this person is always the first.
"Hua Jinghuan, I haven't seen you a few times in the past four years, what orders did the Yuan Lord send you to execute." There was even a hint of jealousy in his small tone, he had been staying in the yamen of the capital for the past four years, helping the county magistrate who was not very bold and whose head was a little too bent to deal with various cases, but ...... Four years is too long.
The man went on without any care...... Song Zhichu behind him was a little hateful, this was not even a chance to find a duel, and the second position was really unpleasant.
"Hua Jinghuan, it's better to mention to the Yuan Lord, when will I be able to return to the Yuan Pavilion......" responded to his ...... It was a cold wind, and the hair of the shivering person who was blown was more and more messy, but the look with fire was more delicate, as if this was the time to show a person's true face.
It's only half an hour......
"Song Zhizhi has already done what Lord Yuan ordered." Hua Jinghuan saw the expression of the person in front of him with a gentleness that he didn't even notice, at least not like the cold that had just been revealed.
"There is only one master of the Yuan Pavilion, the token is in Chu Feiran, since the master of the Yuan Pavilion is him, Ah Huan, don't be wrong next time." With a faint tone but no reproach, Fu Mingyuan looked at the person in front of him coldly and shook his head lightly.
Hua Jinghuan didn't make a sound, in his heart...... Or in the hearts of many people in the Yuan Pavilion, there is only one Yuan Lord, but they will also obey the orders of Prince Chu.
"Song Zhizhi still wants to ask...... When will he be able to return to the Yuan Pavilion? This caused Fu Mingyuan to take a special look at Hua Jinghuan, when did Ah Huan care about the beginning?
