Chapter 54: Mutual Rejection and Repayment (2)

After hearing this, Liu Zhennian looked at everyone and shook his head in embarrassment: "Today's prince rebelled, this is not a trivial matter. If I delay for a few days, I am afraid that there will be internal changes, and Tinglong needs to be considerate. ”

Ye Yongjia still touched the ground with his head: "Engong, the court has its own Yan Shilang in charge, and the emperor is in the same place with you, what are you afraid of?" It may be safe to support it for ten days. Now that Inspector Jiang has gone to search for documentary evidence, the fall of the Lu Party is just around the corner! ”

Yan Liang saw that he was dying, so he said, "Then let's wait for a few hours for the time being to see if your subordinate surnamed Jiang has the ability." ”

"Hurry up and open the door, the old man is in a hurry, and he will burn this broken yard with all his heart!"

The shouts of the officers and soldiers outside the door were everywhere, and the old butler woke up suddenly from his sleep, rolled down from the bed, hurriedly put on his shoes, and went to open the door.

"Soldiers......

As soon as the old housekeeper opened the door, more than a dozen soldiers were as fast as lightning and rampage, rushing into the mansion stiffly, almost making the old housekeeper stumble.

Inspector Jiang didn't have time to stop his soldiers, stepped forward to help the old butler, and said with relief: "Old man, we are here for Qi Advisory, and we will never hurt others." I just ask you, where are the documents stored in Qi Counsel? ”

The old butler looked dazed: "Paperwork? My lord has never kept these things here......"

Jiang Tian sighed: "Old man, you don't have to hide it for him. Qi Zhi is already at the end of his crossbow, and he is about to be condemned to sin, so why do you have to protect him in every possible way? ”

The old butler hurriedly shook it three times: "Official, what I said is true, and there is absolutely no half-false!" Old Master Qi lives in ...... all day."

In the middle of the sentence, I heard the crackling sound in the inner courtyard, sometimes accompanied by the cries of several women, and the mourning was all over the field and noisy.

I saw a sergeant climb over the earthen wall and report to the chief: "Lord Jiang, not a single house has been dropped, and all the searches have been completed!" ”

"Good. Is there a place to hide letters and documents? ”

"A large number of Qi Counselor's books have been found in the book cabinet on the east side!"

Jiang Tian glanced at the old butler in disappointment, and hurriedly instructed the sergeant: "Lead me to see!" ”

Jiang Xunjian opened the door of the library and saw that the windows were covered with dust, and the air was filled with smoke-like dust, which made him cough several times and feel like he was suffocating.

Books were placed on all four walls, and a few soldiers surrounded a large wooden box, carefully searching.

Jiang Tian also went to take a look, and took a few letters in his hand, but they were all trivial matters written to his family and concubines, and there was nothing to mention the officials.

"Is this what you're searching for?" Jiang Tian sensed that something was wrong and asked softly.

The officers and soldiers frowned, rubbed their temples again, and replied in unison: "Almost, I didn't see anything else......

"Do you want to keep searching?"

Jiang Tian looked at the box blankly: "Why don't you ...... Pour it out and dismantle it one by one. ”

"Yes!"

The officers and soldiers worked together to knock down the box, and the white paper inside fell like snowflakes and piled up on the ground. "Look for it, don't miss out on something important."

In less than half an hour, the officers and men had opened most of the letters, but still found nothing. Jiang Tian was distraught, threw the old letter in his hand aside, looked back at the chiming clock next to him, and became more and more anxious.

"Let me meet the adults, let me meet the adults!" Someone shouted outside the door.

Knock, knock......

The chiming bell also rang at this moment.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Tian quickly stood up, grabbed the chiming bell on the table, and walked to the door in two steps.

"I heard from my brothers...... I heard that Qi Shi suddenly changed his plan and stopped coming to the river house. ”

Inspector Jiang suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and the blood was almost up to his throat and eyes; Take two steps back, and your breath will gradually return to stability. He didn't have time to confirm the authenticity of the news, and roared like a thunderbolt: "The whole army evacuates the Qinhuai River and goes straight to the palace!" ”

The hastily issued order issued by the Jiang Inspector obviously made it difficult for the soldiers to react, and it took a lot of effort to retreat alone, and they left the Qinhuai River in a tense manner, galloped from the Dazhong Bridge, and drove to the Qi Shi's house in front of the palace.

The horse's hooves were windy, Jiang Tian and everyone walked to the Qi Shi Mansion at the fastest speed, rolled off the horse, and their bodies were covered with hot sweat, which was extremely uncomfortable, but they didn't even have the time to wipe it.

Seeing that the door was still open, Inspector Jiang knew that Qi Zhi had not gone far, so he strode across the threshold with everyone and marched towards the inner courtyard. When Fang entered the middle hall, he smelled a smell of burnt paste, his eyebrows furrowed, and he was busy letting people enter the house to check.

"Burn, burn!"

Jiang Tian was shocked into a cold sweat again, and followed in, and saw a pile of white paper on the ground, all of which were burning or had been burned, bursting out of sparks, and there was not much left.

He and the others stepped on it with their feet and fluttered with the wind, tossing for a while, and then stopped the fire. It's a pity that all the large pieces of evidence were spared and burned in the fire, only a few scraps of paper, but the handwriting was still spent.

"It's over, it's over," Jiang Inspector walked over slowly, looking at such a miserable scene, his heart was like a colic, "How else can I explain to Lord Ye!" ”

He took off his coat and collapsed into his chair in exhaustion.

"It's been a long day, and it's been in vain...... The great achievements of Governor Ye are going to be destroyed by me alone! He gritted his teeth and smashed his head with his fist in frustration, "Jiang Tian, Jiang Tian, you have received the prefect's great favor, and you can't repay it, and you still caused such an incident!" Let's go, go back to the Inspection Division, or tell Governor Ye to stop......"

The impatience in Ye Yongjia's expression was diluted, and he seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water, so that his exhilarating mood plummeted and fell into the abyss.

He wanted to scold Jiang Tian in front of him, but then he thought about it, his idea was not what I meant. sighed helplessly: "The inspector has worked hard, and I have nothing to blame you." What's more, I can still ask His Majesty's holy decree that Hugh will easily defeat and demoralize. ”

"My lord, my subordinates have heard you say, this is the only chance," Jiang Tian's eyes were a little red, "The rest can only pull Wei Chong into the water, there is no possibility of eliminating the two parties of Wanlu, and this trouble will remain for ......a lifetime."

Ye Yongjia wanted to say something, but he had nothing to say, so after letting Jiang Tian retreat, he only rubbed his brow bones alone.

"Haha, the heads of this group of dogs are really bad!" Qi Shi rolled up his sleeves and walked into the Yue Mansion with a big laugh.

"Welcome back victorious!" Zheng Shiyan led many officers to congratulate each other.

"There is no need to praise falsely, after all, Qi has always participated in schemes, and there are countless merits, so this merit is nothing!" Qi Shi spat out wine and laughed.

"Qi Commander is so courageous!" Zheng Shiyan slapped him on the shoulder and praised.

"Why don't you see Lord Lu?" Qi asked.

"Lord Lu is setting up a banquet, please drink a cup to celebrate!"

After hearing this, Qi Zhi stomped his feet, and let out a hearty laugh: "Damn, I knew I wasn't drinking at home, so my mother came here!" Walk! Get drunk! ”

As he spoke, he walked up to the hall with Zheng Shiyan.
