"Get up, go talk first!"

When Song Huizong heard this, he also thought that what the two said made some sense.

While summoning them into the living room of the villa, he summoned Nie Shan and Jiang Chen to come to see him quickly, and he still wanted to listen to the opinions of the two ministers in charge before making a judgment on this kind of matter.

As a result, Jiang Chen and Nie Shan, who had just fallen asleep and had two dark circles under their eyes, hurried over.

……

Jiang Chen has been an official for so long, and it is the first time he has seen Zhao Yu, the king of Yan, Zhao Si, the king of Yue, and Zhao Youcheng, these royal princes who are upright and red.

While looking at it secretly, after saluting with Nie Shan, he smiled at Song Huizong:

"Master, the disciple heard that you are tired of eating barbecue these days, and you just studied a light diet overnight, and you passed the disciple over, but it is really a coincidence!"

As Jiang Chen spoke, he handed Song Huizong the three fresh xiaolongbao that he hadn't eaten last night and heated up again.

He didn't care what the facts were, the important thing was to make Song Huizong feel his loyalty at all times.

"Liangchen, you have a heart! I just happen to be a little hungry! ”

Song Huizong looked at Jiang Chen's dark circles, and was secretly moved in his heart, and picked up a bun and saw that it was warm, so he took a bite lightly.

Then he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, it's delicious!" There is not a trace of minced meat, but it is so delicious, rare, really rare! ”

"Come, the two royal brothers and Nie Aiqing will also try it together!"

Song Huizong greeted warmly while eating.

"Thank you, official!"

Zhao Yu, the king of Yan, Zhao Si, the king of Yue, and Nie Shan saluted respectfully, and also picked up a small steamed bun and ate it.

While eating, Zhao Yu, the king of Yan, Zhao Si, the king of Yue, and several marquis couldn't help but cast envious glances at Jiang Chen.

Song Huizong trusted Jiang Chen's food and drink so much that he didn't even have the slightest intention of checking the eunuchs around him, which could not but show that Song Huizong's trust in Jiang Chen had reached a terrifying level.

After realizing this, Zhao Yu, the king of Yan, immediately praised Jiang Chen loudly:

"This king has long heard that Lord Jiang is a first-class loyal minister of this dynasty, but he didn't expect that Lord Jiang would stay up all night for a mouthful of food for the official family.

"Not bad! Lord Jiang's loyalty really makes me admire and shame! ”

Zhao Si, the king of Yue, arched his hand to Jiang Chen with a smile, and then went straight to the point: "Lord Jiang, I heard that after you seized the brothel under the name of this king, you were injured by assassination, I don't know if it is good now?" Has the murderer been found?

This king and the others are now wronged, and they can be said to be anxious! ”

Kindness?

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then instantly understood the purpose of Song Huizong calling him over.

Is this going to confront the two princes in court?

Jiang Chen didn't want to do such a thankless thing.

Because he knew that even if all the officials involved in this matter were killed, it would be useless, as long as the system of the Northern Song Dynasty remained unchanged and the means of governance remained unchanged, later officials would continue to be corrupt and continue to harm the common people in different ways.

Therefore, before he had the ability to change the foundation of the Northern Song Dynasty, he just wanted to exterminate the old underground poles, put an end to the problem of missing people, and then get rid of a few of Cai Jing's henchmen by the way.

As for involving the two princes, that was Nie Shan's business.

So, he kicked the ball directly and said: "Thank you for your concern, Xiaochen's injury is not serious." As for the murderer of Lan Tiju, Xiao Chen suspected that it was done by an old pole leader surnamed Qu.

However, what is the specific situation, I still have to ask Lord Nie, because after Xiao Chen was injured, he did not continue to participate in the investigation in depth. ”

"The old pole surnamed Qu?"

When Zhao Yu, the king of Yan, and Zhao Si, the king of Yue, heard this, their hearts were immediately relieved.

After nodding to Jiang Chen with satisfaction, Zhao Si, the king of Yue, asked Nie Shan, "I don't know what recent progress has been made by Lord Yin of the Mansion?"

This is the account book of the brothels in this palace, which records the expenses and the personnel who handle them in detail, hoping to provide some help to Lord Nie in the investigation of the case.

If it involves this king and others, Lord Nie can also summon and inquire at any time! This king and others must know everything, and there is no end to what they say! ”

The two princes were calm and had a very upright attitude!

This directly made Nie Shan a little uncomfortable, and seeing Song Huizong nodding, he took the account book and saluted: "Thank you two princes for helping each other!"

To tell the truth, at first it was found that there was a shadow of the palace behind the black brothel, and the lower officials also suspected the two princes, but after getting some tips from Scholar Cai, the lower officials found that it seemed that they had misunderstood the two princes.

Because all the key points in this are focused on Meng Kui and Jiang Gaocen, Xia Guan has reason to suspect that they are foxes and fake tigers, deliberately acting under the banner of Lan Tiju and the prince! ”

Scholar Tsai?

Cai You?

Zhao Yu, the king of Yan, and Zhao Si, the king of Yue, secretly wrote down Cai You's favor and asked:

"I don't know if Meng Kui and Jiang Gaocen have confessed? Who is going to kill Lan Congxi and Master Jiang? What is the purpose of these people framing this king? ”

After asking, the two princes and their sons all looked at Nie Shan expectantly, hoping that Nie Shan could help them clear their grievances so that they could go back to sleep soundly.

But Nie Shan shook his head and said: "They didn't admit that they had colluded with the old pole, they only said that they had met a qu member who controlled the teeth of several people, and they didn't know anything else and refused to confess."

Although Xia Guan did not arrest Qu Yuan, it has been determined from the clues that this person is a big leader of the old underground pole, and may even be the actual controller of the old underground pole. ”

"The de facto master of the underground? Hehe! ”

Song Huizong narrowed his eyes, his face full of murderous intent.

Yan Wang Zhao Yu said unwillingly: "According to what Lord Nie said, if you don't arrest that qu member and bring it to justice, this king and others will not be able to completely clear the suspicion?" ”

Zhao Si, the king of Yue, was also anxious when he heard this, and said hatefully: "Have you ever punished Cai Kui and Jiang Gaocen for those two traitors?" Such a traitor, Lord Nie, don't be polite, all the criminal laws are next to each other, I don't believe they don't tell the truth! ”

Kindness?

Could it be that I blame them?

Seeing their attitude, Song Huizong couldn't help but believe a little more in the two royal brothers.

Nie Shan's thought in his heart was particularly strong, and he said with a wry smile: "Cai Kui, Jiang Gaocen and others are all from the clan, and the imperial court has clearly ordered that the doctor cannot be punished, plus the Meng family and the Jiang family have maintained it in many ways, so the following officials have not used the criminal law yet." ”

"How's that for good?

If it drags on for a long time, the thieves will go into hiding, or simply escape from Bianjing, won't the king and the others jump into the Yellow River and can't wash it away? ”

Yan Wang Zhao Yu and Yue Wang Zhao Xi didn't want to leave this hidden danger, and they were both very eager.

Jiang Chen wanted to remind them of the matter of the Ghost Fan Tower, or suggest using the small black room for interrogation, but after seeing Nie Shan's expression of an old god, he held back again.
