Chapter 162: The Criminal Department sues Wei Yuan!
The old man used to be the housekeeper of the Lu family, and the reason why he was able to survive the tragedy was completely because of the favor of God, because he took care of his sick grandson at home and escaped.
When the old man returned to the Lu family, he saw a scene like purgatory, and there were dozens of people in the Lu family, except for him, none of them survived.
In the past ten years, in order to be able to avenge the Lu family, the old man has secretly investigated the clues related to it, but after all, he is too old to even find out the things that the imperial court can't find, how can he, an old man, investigate clearly.
Fortunately, hard work pays off.
After Lu Zhiyi's death, Wei Yuan took up the post of the prefect of the city, and under the old man's unrelenting investigation, he really gave him some clues, and the mastermind behind the clues that was finally revealed was actually related to Wei Yuan!
As the saying goes, the people don't fight with the officials, if Wei Yuan is really related to the Lu family's annihilation, not only will he not be able to avenge the Lu family, but once Wei Yuan knows about it, I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe.
At the same time, the old man had another thought in his heart.
Performers!
Sue the royal court!
But he is just a pauper, and the lockdown is a hundred miles away from Kyoto, not to mention whether he can see His Majesty after going to Kyoto, and whether he can have the life to reach Kyoto is still unknown.
The old man, who was already desperate about this matter, until the arrival of Wushuang a few days ago, rekindled hope in his heart.
Chu Mo told the old man about some things that needed to be paid attention to when going to the Criminal Department, and then asked Wen Qingyuan to prepare a table of sumptuous delicacies, and after entertaining the grandfather and grandson, Chu Mo called Yu Zixuan, and the two of them came to the study together.
"What do you think about this?"
In the study, recalling what happened along the way, Chu Mo's brows were unconsciously furrowed.
"The people of Jianyulou are involved in this matter, and the reason is probably not just to take people's money and eliminate disasters for others. Since the forces created by the remnants of the Great Qian Dynasty in Jianyulou, do you say that the destruction of the Lu Mansion will have something to do with them? ”
Wushuang frowned and spoke.
"What you said is exactly what I'm worried about, if this matter is really related to Jian Yulou, then there is only one conclusion, in the current imperial court, there are already people who have made contact with these remnants of the previous dynasty, and have also reached some kind of cooperation!"
Chu Mo's eyes froze, and he said in a solemn tone,
Jian Yulou is the remnants of the previous dynasty, and their existence is nothing more than wanting to restore the country. If what Chu Mo said was true, wouldn't it mean that there were already people in the court who wanted to rebel?
"Young master, early tomorrow morning, we really want to take the two of them to the Criminal Department?"
At this moment, Yu Zixuan suddenly asked.
"What do you think?"
Chu Mo asked.
"Young master, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this matter. After all, the person they complained about was the head of the household, this matter can be big or small, if the matter of the closure of the city really has something to do with Wei Yuan, even if the truth of the matter is revealed, will Li Deyi punish Wei Yuan because of a deceased person? ”
What Yu Zixuan said is not unreasonable, and such a thing has not happened before. is like the consciousness of the Su family, Li Deyi obviously knows that the collapse of the Su family is done by someone for his own selfish desires, but even if the truth of this matter is revealed, what punishment will the people behind the scenes get.
"Shizi, what Zixuan said is not unreasonable. The two of them can't be exposed too early now, Wei Yuan is a princeling, and we are not sure if there will be a princeling. I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to take them to the Criminal Department. ”
Wushuang also spoke at this time.
Hearing this, Chu Mo lowered his head and pondered.
"As you said, there is something wrong with this matter, but this is also the best way now, in this matter, we can't come forward, if it is known that everything behind this is our help, we will have a hard time in Kyoto in the future."
Chu Mo said with a wry smile,
Hearing Chu Mo's words, Wushuang and the two glanced at each other, and they both saw a touch of helplessness in each other's eyes.
……
The court was quiet in the middle of the night.
In the imperial study, Li Deyi sat on the desk and did not rest.
"Your Majesty, the master asks to see you."
At this moment, Li Si's voice came from outside the door, and after hearing this, Li Deyi put down his hand and entered the study.
"Wechen see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!"
Wen Haoxuan stepped forward, prostrate on the ground, and paid homage to Li Deyi.
"Flat!"
Li Deyi waved his hand and said, "Aiqing entered the palace late at night, do you have something important to tell?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, exactly! Nanyan sent a mission to Kyoto to face the saint! ”
Wen Haoxuan said.
"Huh? Nanyan envoy to face the saint? Why didn't I know about it? ”
Li Deyi frowned slightly.
Weichen didn't know that this was the news that came back from the prison. Now that the Nanyan delegation has entered the realm of my Dawu Dynasty, the leader of the mission this time is the prince of Nanyan! ”
Wen Haoxuan continued.
"Since it was Prince Nanyan who led the delegation here, our Dawu Dynasty naturally can't lose its courtesy, let the people of the Ministry of Rites do a good job of welcoming the mission."
After Li Deyi finished speaking, he immediately waved his hand.
"Yes!"
Wen Haoxuan bowed his hand, and saw Li Deyi waving his hand, Wen Haoxuan did not withdraw from the imperial study, Li Deyi frowned slightly when he saw this.
"Taishi, but there is still something to do?"
Hearing Li Deyi's words, Wen Haoxuan nodded, his face sank, and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is related to the remnants of the Great Qian Dynasty. ”
……
Early the next morning.
In front of the gate of the criminal department, a rapid drum sounded to the sky, an old man and a young man were standing in front of the drum at the moment, and the passers-by saw the old man beating the drum vigorously, and they all stopped, looking at the old man and the young man as if they were a good show.
After a while, the closed door of the criminal department slowly opened, and a criminal department catcher walked out of it with hazy eyes.
"Hey, old fellow, this is the Criminal Department, not a place for you to mess around!"
Seeing the old man and the young man, his brows couldn't help frowning together, and his face was angry.
"This lord, the grass people want to sue!"
Seeing this, the old man hurriedly put down the drumstick in his hand, and knelt down in front of the catcher with a pop, and kept kowtowing, as did the young man behind him.
Catch quickly raised his eyebrows: "Sue? ”
"Exactly!" The old man nodded hurriedly.
"Listen to your accent, not from Kyoto?" Hurry up and ask again.
"The grass people are locked down!"
"Since you are a person who is locked down in the city, if you have a complaint, why don't you go to your local county office! This is Kyoto, it's the Criminal Department, and you are here to complain, but it is not in accordance with the rules. Old man, please go back! ”
After saying that, he quickly ignored the grandfather and grandson, and immediately turned around and left.
And at the moment when he turned around, the old man suddenly shouted.
"My lord! The person who the grass people want to sue is Wei Yuan, the current head of the household department! ”
