Chapter 104: Oh?
After Si Yunlan came out of Si Yunting's courtyard, he went directly to Jingzhao Mansion.
The guards of Jingzhao Mansion saw Si Yunlan from a distance and hurriedly went in to report the news.
As Li Su said, Jing Zhaoyin naturally didn't believe Cao Er's words, and he wouldn't have closed the case like this, but he didn't plan to try Cao Er so soon, so he had to give him a little time to think about it.
So as soon as he returned to Jingzhao Mansion, Jingzhao Yin asked Cao Er to be detained alone, which was also a kind of pressure.
When the official came in to report the news, he was sitting in the back hall of the yamen drinking tea.
"Si Yunlan is here?" Hearing the report from the servant, Jing Zhaoyin put down the teacup, got up and walked out, "It's definitely been a bad year recently, this is one after another, and it's endless."
"What did Lord Kyo Yin say endlessly?" The official at the door originally wanted to stop Si Yunlan from coming, but he didn't stop him.
Jing Zhaoyin didn't expect him to come in so soon, the official behind Si Yunlan waved his hand helplessly at Jing Zhaoyin, he had to enter, he couldn't help it.
Jing Zhaoyin glared at the man, and will settle accounts with you later.
"Nothing, nothing." Jing Zhao Yin smiled and said, "Si Shilang is an upstart in the court, why don't you report when you come to Jingzhao Mansion, and the lower officials can go out to greet you."
"Jing Zhaoyin's words will torment me, but it is just a fluke that His Majesty appreciates." Playing officially, who can't.
"Si Shilang is here today for Sister Ling's business." Jing Zhaoyin said and led Si Yunlan to the back hall, "Come, let's go in and talk."
"It's really for my sister."
When they arrived at the back hall, after Si Yunlan and Jing Zhaoyin sat down, Jing Zhaoyin ordered the officials on the side to go down and serve tea.
Taking advantage of the efforts of the servants to go out, Jing Zhaoyin directly spat out bitterness at Si Yunlan, "Hey, Ling Mei's matter is not big, it is not small, it is not difficult to say, it is not easy to say, it is indeed a little difficult to do."
"Oh? What's the problem?"
"Si Shilang has just returned to the capital, and he may not know that he went to Shandong to suppress bandits, and as a result, he found three coal mines, His Majesty is very happy, and Dingguo Gong is also deeply favored by His Majesty, and the Dingguo Mansion is naturally rising.
Naturally, no one in the capital dares to touch the mold of the Guogong Mansion."
Jing Zhaoyin really didn't know that Si Yunlan didn't know about it, but he guessed that he probably knew, after all, if he couldn't see and listen to all directions in the court, it wouldn't work.
But he still has to say this, otherwise how would he know what kind of pressure he is carrying to do things.
If you do good deeds, you will be rewarded, this is the creed of his life.
"Oh?" They are all smart people, who doesn't understand whom, "Then Jing Zhaoyin, you don't dare to touch the mold of their Dingguo Mansion?"
Jing Zhaoyin naturally wouldn't say that, he had already made a bad deal with the Dingguo Mansion today, and he naturally wouldn't fail to understand the truth that the enemy of his enemy was a friend.
"Si Shilang, as Jing Zhaoyin, Xia Guan protects the safety of the land of Gyeonggi, and naturally will not succumb to power, and Xia Guan can sit in this position because of His Majesty's trust." Jing Zhaoyin clasped his fists and bowed in the direction of the palace, "No matter who it is, as long as it is against the law, regardless of the official status, the lower officials will definitely act according to the law."
"Since Jing Zhaoyin said so, then I will wait for Jing Zhaoyin's good news."
Si Yunlan smiled and looked at Jing Zhaoyin, although he didn't say it explicitly, the two had formed an alliance.
"Xia Guan saw a large number of antiques, calligraphy and paintings in a room under the garden of the Dingguo Mansion today, I am afraid that some of them are boring, I wonder if you can help Xia Guan?"
He didn't pay attention to the wooden box in the crypt secret room at the time, but he only noticed that something was wrong after he came back, and Cao Song said in a conclusive manner that those things were left by their ancestors.
But he didn't look like it, those calligraphy and painting jewels were precious at best, where it was worth building a crypt to hide things.
There are also mansions in the capital that are richer than the Dingguo Mansion, but I have never heard of that mansion not put things in the treasury but hide them underground.
Say what you are afraid of being stolen
, Jing Zhaoyin doesn't believe it, there must be something unspeakable in this.
"Oh? What do you think is the stuff of the place?"
It is obviously impossible to say that Si Yunlan doesn't know the meaning of Jing Zhaoyin's words, but sometimes it is necessary to pull back and forth in officialdom.
Jing Zhaoyin was slandered in his heart, and he knew that he could climb to the position of the waiter of the criminal department at a young age, and it was definitely not a simple person, sure enough.
"Although Xia Guan has some connections in the capital, he is not as good as the Pingyang Hou Mansion, so I don't know if Si Shilang can help Xia Guan in the investigation of the Dingguo Mansion."
In fact, Jing Zhaoyin suspected that the jewels in his crypt were related to Dingguo Gong's suppression of bandits in Shandong, and there were many utensils and styles related to that side, maybe they were obtained by the bandits.
He has some connections in Beijing, but he can't reach out to Shandong, Jing Zhaoyin glanced at Si Yunlan with a smile, isn't it a coincidence.
"Since the adult is for the sake of the sister, my Pingyang Marquis Mansion will naturally not sit idly by, and I will arrange it when I go back."
"Then thank you Si Shirou."
Everything that should be said has been said, everything that should be understood has been understood, Si Yunlan did not stay for long, in order to solve this matter as soon as possible, he still has things to do.
For example, investigate the Dingguo Mansion, and write an excerpt to impeach the Dingguo Gong.
……
Sure enough, on the morning of the second day, the imperial historians impeached Dingguo Gong for conniving at the slaves to kidnap Miss Pingyang Houfu.
The people in the court are all smart people, so they naturally don't believe that it was the slave who kidnapped Miss Pingyang Houfu by himself, after all, he is just a small slave, and he has no master, what kind of bear heart leopard dare to murder the young lady of Pingyang Houfu.
But Jing Zhaoyin's side has not yet made a final decision, and they can only impeach him in the current situation.
Although he was low-key when he was favored by the Holy Grace before, he also blocked the way of many people in the end, and now seeing him in trouble, naturally many people want to step on it.
"I really didn't expect that Duke Dingguo would be able to connive at his slaves to do this kind of thing, and I don't know if he can do what His Majesty has told him like this, after all, he can't even control a slave."
"Huh." Someone sneered and said, "It is said that the prime minister is a third-grade official in front of the door, but now that I look at it, it is indeed so."
Although Dingguo Gong had expected that his political enemies in the court today would not make him feel better, his face was still ugly by their successive words.
Emperor Jianzhang sat on the dragon chair, the old god was there, just looking at the courtiers above the main hall, you said a word to me, you came and went, but he didn't make a sound.
Although Emperor Jianzhang did not speak, Dingguo Gong was very worried in his heart, and saw him kneeling on the main hall with a thud.
"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty."
Emperor Jianzhang lowered his eyes and looked at him, "Oh? What is Aiqing's crime?"
