Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Dark Tide Surges
I have to say that since the last time Huang Sisi broke into the imperial city alone, Qin Mengxue has carried out some reforms on the forbidden army.
Even if there is no war on weekdays, you must cultivate every day and not slack off.
So when Qin Mengxue gave the order, it was only half an hour before and after, and Qin Wanli had already appeared in Dali Temple.
It's just that compared to others, his treatment is obviously much better.
The separate cell was not only spotlessly cleaned, clean, with books and furniture, but even two maids who came to serve accompanied him.
"Qin Family Master."
"Dali Siqing, it's been a long time, the old man is old, his health is sick, and he still hopes that Dali Siqing is not strange."
Qin Wanli was polite, but his eyes always looked at the ancient book in his hand, and he clearly did not take Dali Siqing to heart.
However, he didn't care, and said with a smile: "It's okay, the Qin family master's situation is special, and the official can be accommodating, but the official has a few questions he wants to ask the Qin family master, and I hope the Qin family master will give him advice." ”
"Although Dali Siqing opened his mouth, the old man naturally knew everything."
"The official got a clue that Wang Shangshu went to your mansion as a guest the day before he hanged himself, but is there such a thing?"
"That's right, Wang Shangshu did always look for the old man and asked some things about the logistics distributed by the military department back then, and he left not long after."
Dali Siqing narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "That's right, this official suspects that the Qin family master is inseparable from Wang Shangshu's death, what does the Qin family master have to say about this?" ”
"The old man asked himself, he acted above board all his life, and never told the truth, but this incident is indeed too coincidental, and it is understandable to suspect the old man, but if Wang Shangshu's death is related to the old man, it is inevitably a little wronged."
"It's extreme, it's just a suspicion, it's hard work for the Qin family master, not in his position, but also for his government."
"They are all His Majesty's subjects, and this is what the old man should do."
After a conversation, I didn't get any useful information, and I didn't say anything nutritious, but you can't do anything about him in the middle of nowhere.
After all, after so many years in the officialdom, Qin Wanli has not been cunning for a day or two, and Dali Siqing didn't expect to get any useful information from his mouth.
"In this case, the official will not disturb the Qin family master to rest, but these two female dependents, the official should take it away, this is Dali Temple, not the Qin family's back garden, what do you say? Take! ”
Without giving Qin Wanli a chance to refute, Dali Temple gave an order, and the two jailers immediately opened the cell door and sent the two maids out of Dali Temple.
In this regard, Qin Wanli didn't say a word, just glanced at Dali Siqing coldly.
It was this glance that made Dali Siqing conclude that whether it was Wang Shangshu's death or the smuggling of logistics materials, these two things were inseparable from the Qin family.
But he needed evidence, one that was enough to press the Qin family to death, otherwise, in a few days, he would have to let this old fox leave.
It's false to say that you are not aggrieved, you have been a Dali Siqing for so many years, when has there ever been such a time? Whoever is caught in the crime, whether you are guilty or not, will be beaten first.
Unfair, you say? You're all caught in Dali Temple, do you really think you're a good person?
But Qin Wanli, he can't move, not only can't move, but he also has to provide for it well, and he can't touch it!
There's no way, he can't afford to provoke the behemoth of the Qin family.
But for two days in a row, Qin Wanli was talking some nonsense to himself, and Dali Siqing finally couldn't sit still.
"Qin family master, everyone is a smart person, let's get rid of this nonsense, yesterday, a subordinate in the Qin Mansion disappeared mysteriously, do you know about this matter?"
"What's the difference between a mere subordinate and an ant? Why does the old man look at this kind of person in his eyes? ”
"You can ignore it, but I can't help but take it to heart, at this juncture, the descendants of your Qin Mansion suddenly evaporated from the world, should you give me an explanation?
Whether it was for a reason, or for a fear of crime and escape, your attitude determines the caliber of my performance to Your Majesty. ”
At this point, Qin Wanli couldn't be silent any longer.
He slowly raised his head and looked at Dali Temple, revealing a sarcastic smile.
"Dali Siqing, how much do you spend every year?"
"Thanks to Your Majesty's love, the official's life is okay, and the family is quite wealthy, so I don't care about the head of the Qin family."
"Dali Siqing, the official position of Zheng Sanpin, and the annual salary is not enough for the expenses of my Qin Mansion for a day, so why should I take my life for this little thing?"
"Oh?" When Dali Siqing heard this, a hint of banter flashed in his eyes: "Is the head of the Qin family threatening this official?" ”
"No, the old man just wants to remind you that there are some things that are not caused by a small character like you, no matter what you do, you should consider the consequences.
For example, the disappeared descendant of my Qin family, he has already thought about the consequences, maybe Dali Siqing can find a confession in the subordinate person's room now? ”
"Damn it!"
Qin Wanli's fearless tone made Dali Siqing's face more and more ugly, if it weren't for Qin Wanli's identity, I'm afraid he would have rushed in and tortured him.
After taking a few deep breaths, Dali Siqing stabilized his mood and showed a smile.
"The master of the Qin family is really a good means, he is obviously trapped in this Dali Temple, but he can still strategize and win a thousand miles, this official is really admired."
"No."
......
"This damn Qin Wanli!"
Qin Mengxue snorted and threw down the testimony heavily, her face cloudy.
"Your Majesty, the minister did find the confession that Qin Wanli said, and confessed to the murder of Wang Shangshu, there is no other evidence, this matter can only be concluded."
"Dali Siqing go down, I know you've done your best."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness."
Although he was unwilling, without new evidence, this matter could not be further investigated.
Until Dali Siqing left the Frost and Snow Palace, Qin Mengxue could no longer hold back the anger in her heart, and swept the mountain of folds off the table, and all the frightened maids lowered their heads, trembling like frightened birds.
"What a Qin family, he actually calculated on my head, if he was still in the imperial capital, how could I be like this!"
......
"Ahh
"Strange, did you get a chill?" Huang Sisi touched Ye Qing's forehead, and then touched herself, and after making sure that there was no fever, she wondered, "What's wrong?" ”
"Nothing."
Ye Qing turned over and hugged Huang Sisi into his arms, and a pair of big hands suddenly became restless.
"Here, turn over."
"Ye Qing! Ahh ”
"Eh, eh! Why do you bite again? ”
