Chapter 154: Flaws
Dong Qian hurriedly came over and asked, "Brother Li, are you okay?"
Li Yong raised his eyes, saw that the other party's face was full of concern, and replied very calmly, "It's okay, it's a false alarm."
Dong Qian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, you're fine, otherwise, the emperor won't blame, and the prince will also arrest our Xingshi to ask for guilt!"
When he said this, he was clearly praising Li Yong, but in fact he had bad intentions.
Li Yong smiled, "Brother Dong, let's hurry up and find a retinue with good water quality to save people."
Dong Qian's eyes flickered and looked at the lake.
At this time, the strength of the woman in the water was much smaller, and she was about to sink, he frowned, "It's a human life."
Then he ordered an entourage to go down to save people.
The attendant was very careful, took the oar from the boatman's hand and threw it to the water, then jumped down, grabbed the woman by the back of the neck, and then jumped back to the boat with the power of the oar, without touching the woman the whole time.
Xue Zhun laughed: "I heard that Commander Dong is very strict, but now that I look at it, it really deserves its reputation. Even an entourage around him has such good skills, in this case, why didn't he save it earlier, this woman would be killed."
Xue Zhun was very aggressive, but he could get to the point every time.
Li Yong and Xu Minzhi glanced at each other and tacitly agreed.
Dong Qian looked at him left and right, "It's just a singer, why bother with it, let's continue to go back and drink."
Everyone cheered and went into the cabin again.
Xue Zhun glanced back at the woman and whispered to Xu Minzhi to chew his tongue, "Hey, I see this woman is the one commanded by Dong."
Xu Minyi patted him on the shoulder and didn't say anything.
secretly exchanged glances with Li Yong.
Xue Zhun's reminder was already obvious.
He saw that someone was trying to calculate Li Yong, so he deliberately said this.
Li Yong said in his heart, the children from the family really don't have simple thoughts, they don't look at it, but their hearts are so fine, I don't know if he saw who was pushing him behind his back.
Back in the cabin, everyone quickly forgot about the trivial matter, and Le Ji picked up the lute again and played with it.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, everyone dispersed with all their interest.
Li Yong and Xu Minzhi walked for a while and then went back to the mansion, seeing that the Xuandehou Mansion was in front of them, but the carriage was stopped. new
Li Yong lifted the curtain and saw that it was a person who looked like a small man, "Who are you?"
"My lord, Miss Li sent the villain back to the Xuandehou Mansion to explain important matters, but I didn't expect to meet you here."
Li Yong chuckled in his heart, "It's so late, what's the matter?"
"Please take a step forward."
Li Yong looked the little guy in front of him up and down, he was very good-eyed, and he was not very old.
He knew that there were several attendants around his niece who were Qin Zeng's people, and he didn't know if this little guy was not.
Despite this speculation, he cautiously asked his attendant to search the other party's body, and only when he saw that the murder weapon was not hidden, did he get out of the car and talk to this person.
A few steps away is a dark alley.
The little guy walked over and hung his head and waited for Li Yong to come over.
Li Yong followed him over and asked, "What can you say?"
In the dark shadow of the alley, the little guy raised his head, pulled his clothes and bun very neatly, and slammed into Li Yong's arms!
Li Yong pushed in shock, but the person in his arms hugged him and shouted, "Someone! Help!"
This voice is clearly a woman!
The chaotic footsteps soon came, Li Yong's heart tightened, and he looked at the person who came, "Dong Qian?"
"Brother Li? What are you doing?"
Li Yong had a cold face, and before he could speak, the woman was disheveled, and she knelt at Dong Qian's feet in panic!
"Official! This person is light and molested a little girl, and I beg the official to make the decision for me!"
Li Yong looked at the two people standing and kneeling, and the subordinates who were also wearing barracks uniforms behind Dong Qian, his eyebrows suddenly furrowed.
It seems that it is a plan that cannot be made, and another plan is born.
Or, it was just a small test before, but now it's the real thing.
What does Dong Qian want to do?
Such a flawed trap can be found out with a little verification.
The woman cried and said, "The little woman was just passing by here, and she was forcibly dragged into the alley by this person, sir, you must get justice for the little woman!"
Dong Qian was also polite, "Brother Li, I believe in your character, but there are so many brothers in the camp watching, if I am afraid of favoritism, it is not good, and I have to ask Brother Li to go back to the Soldiers and Horses Division with me, after the routine investigation is clear, Dong will personally send Brother Li back, otherwise it will alarm the Metropolitan Procuratorate, I am afraid that I will hurt Brother Li's face, and now, I will be offended."
The Metropolitan Procuratorate supervises hundreds of officials, if someone has a moral deficit, the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate are too good at making a fuss.
Li Yong is a person personally promoted by the emperor, if he has this kind of incident, he will lose more than his face at that time.
However, he couldn't let Dong Qian lead him by the nose.
"Brother Dong just said that the Metropolitan Procuratorate, I think it's a good idea."
Dong Qian's heart was awe-inspiring, "What, this little thing, Brother Li really wants to alarm the Metropolitan Procuratorate?"
"Please."
Dong Qiandun was in place.
Li Yong raised his lips, "It's understandable that Brother Dong wants to be the master of this woman, just go and ask the imperial historian to speak, but this kind of case may not be touched by the side of the Soldiers and Horses, and this woman's origin is unknown, even if she is a daughter from a good family, she is also a civil prosecutor, and the merits will be beaten first." I won't go anywhere except for the Gyeonggi Yamen, and if Brother Dong wants to invite anyone to come, please do it."
Dong Qian's complexion gradually turned blue.
Back then, he was pressed by Li Yong everywhere, and after taking the road of martial arts, he climbed to today's position, but Li Yong retired to Yangzhou with the Li family for so many years, and was personally promoted by the emperor to the prince and young master as soon as he emerged, which was enough to ignite Dong Qian's raging jealousy.
"Brother Li, you and I have known each other for many years, but if you go through the motions, why should you be so serious?"
Li Yong said: "The merits are determined, it is precisely because you and I are acquaintances that I can't go with you. When the time comes, I can't explain my affairs clearly, and I'll have to trouble you, in that case, I won't be able to worry about it!"
Dong Qian couldn't get off the stage in front of so many subordinates, and his face was a little ugly, so he glanced at the woman.
The woman had just heard Li Yong say that the civil prosecutor was going to hit the board first, and her face turned a little whiter, and at this time, when she saw Dong Qian's unkind gaze, she gritted her teeth, ripped her clothes and rushed to the gate of Xuandehou's mansion.
Li Yong's eyes were cold, and he wanted to stop it, but he couldn't reach out to grab people by himself, otherwise he couldn't tell clearly.
Dong Qian waved his hand, and people "stopped" the woman, and said with a smile: "Brother Li, such a simple matter, why make such a complicated fuss, if you don't listen to my kind words and persuasion, then I don't care."
What he meant, Li Yong insisted on finding the Metropolitan Procuratorate or the Gyeonggi Yamen, so he directly led people to retreat, no matter how entangled this woman was, she would not do his business.
The woman struggled and refused to give up.
Li Yong can't really let her go to the mansion, and this kind of thing will inevitably make people talk about it behind their backs, even if it is found out at the time, the Xuandehou Mansion will inevitably become a joke after dinner.
If this woman dies in front of the house, it is really inexplicable.
"Since Brother Dong is willing to bother for Li, then it's troublesome."
Dong Qian smiled, "Please."
*****
The Wei Mansion is still investigating the matter of cinnabar candles, and the county lord of Yuanheng has taken a look at the sources of candles in the mansion this year, and he has no time to pay attention to the side affairs, and he doesn't know that he accidentally escaped a catastrophe.
Li Qingyi was really assassinated, and after that, Qin Zeng sent four guards over, although he didn't walk in the Wei Mansion, as long as Li Qingyi shouted a voice, he was afraid that he would be able to stand in front of her immediately.
She gladly accepted Qin Zeng's protection, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.
But girls, this
The atmosphere was a little strange for a few days.
I wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, and I didn't dare to speak in private, only eye contact.
Li Qingyi saw that they were "eyebrows and eyebrows", and said with a smile: "If you have something to say, just say it, lest the eyeballs fall out of the sockets that day."
The girls looked at each other and wanted to speak, but they didn't know how to say it.
Xiang Lan plucked up her courage and was about to speak, when a report from the guards came from outside, "Girl, someone from Xuandehou's Mansion has come."
Li Qingyi frowned and walked out of the house, "At this hour, why is there someone in the house? What's wrong?"
The guards all went through the details of Fang Cai's affairs.
An ominous premonition rose in Li Qingyi's heart, "Full of flaws."
Chang Yan asked, "Who is that Dong Qian?"
Li Qingyi recalled, "Dong Qian should be someone who the second uncle knew in his early years, and I have a little impression."
The guard said, "Dong Qian, at this time, he ordered the soldiers and horses of Beicheng."
"Commander of the North City?"
Li Qingyi's scalp flashed in an instant!
Dong Qian, the envoy of the Beicheng Soldiers and Horses, married the sister of the Zou family!
Could it be that the Lin family teamed up with the Zou family and his brother-in-law to frame the second uncle?
*****
Perrin Temple.
Lin pinched his eyebrows with two fingers.
Mother Zhao came over with hot tea, "Madam, you have been tired enough in Heyan Hall these days, so you can rest tonight."
Old Madam Wei's health improved, so she refused to let the Lin family take care of her, and the matter of serving the old lady fell on the two aunts and grandmothers, and the Lin family came back proudly to rest.
Lin asked, "Is there any news from the Zou family?"
Mother Zhao shook her head, "Not yet."
Lin took a deep breath and remembered what he said when he went to see Zou that day.
"What if he's my man? How much money has he spent on me over the years? Do you want me to fill the hole for him with silver? That's a dream! It's good that I can plan for him now!"
Lin Shi's five organs trembled when he heard her words, "You are a widow when he dies, so you are also willing?"
"Hmph, what if I become a widow, there are more women who have remarried in Dajing, what am I afraid of!"
Lin was angry with the smoke above her head, and could only compromise.
"People like the Zou family have no bottom line, I knew that today, I shouldn't have instigated my mother to tell Wenye about the Zou family."
