Chapter 235: Rejected by Concubine Wan
"This ......"
Zhang Zhiwei wanted to speak and stopped looking around.
Ah Yao immediately saw that he had some concerns in his heart, and said, "If it is inconvenient for my lord to say, then I will go back today and come back another day." ”
After all, Zhang Zhiwei is needed to investigate and convict, and it is not good to push people too hard.
Zhang Zhiwei hurriedly stopped her, "Girl, stay!" ”
Ah Yao looked at Zhang Zhiwei suspiciously.
If you have something to say and you don't want to say it directly, what do you do to stop her?
"Invite the girl to come into the house and talk."
Only then did she come to her senses, "Okay. ”
When the two came to the house, Zhang Zhiwei politely beckoned her to sit down.
Ah Yao sat down and raised her eyes to look at Zhang Zhiwei, "Does Master Zhang have something to say to me?" ”
"If the girl is really smart, then I'll say it directly."
"My lord, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Zhang Zhiwei said with an embarrassed face, "Although He Dafu's case is an old case, fortunately, the girl has provided a lot of evidence, and the official has summoned witnesses one after another, the evidence is conclusive, and He Dafu has already pleaded guilty." ”
"That's good."
"But ......"
Ah Yao frowned slightly, "What's the problem?" ”
"But the girl proposed to return the cloth shop under He Dafu's name to Zhou Jiaorui, and there were different voices from the Chamber of Commerce."
"Those cloth shops originally belonged to the Zhou family, what other opinions does the Chamber of Commerce have?"
Zhang Zhiwei said truthfully: "According to the rules of the Chamber of Commerce, if a member of the Chamber of Commerce has no heirs and is unable to manage the property, the property under his name must be temporarily handed over to the president of the Chamber of Commerce for management. ”
"How can the Chamber of Commerce have such rules?" Ah Yao was puzzled.
"At first, when President Su founded the Chamber of Commerce, there were indeed no such rules, but since President Su passed away, the Chamber of Commerce has undergone a lot of changes over the years, and these rules have gradually been derived.
The Chamber of Commerce did not belong to the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and the rules they formulated, as long as they approved it, the imperial court had nothing to say. ”
Ah Yao looked at Zhang Zhiwei and asked, "Do you know when and who set this rule?" ”
Zhang Zhiwei shook his head at her after thinking about it carefully.
"I don't remember this official, but at that time, President Su had just passed away, and the Chamber of Commerce was in chaos, and it was Xiao Mu who came forward to maintain the stability of the Chamber of Commerce, and under the unanimous election of everyone, Huang Wensheng was elected as the new president." Zhang Zhiwei said.
It has been nearly 20 years since Soho's death, and from Huang Wensheng's current age, he was only in his early twenties when he first became president, and Xiao Mu was only fifteen or sixteen at that time.
A young man of fifteen or sixteen maintained the stability of the chamber of commerce, and elected a newcomer in his early twenties to be the president.
She didn't believe that there was no one behind it.
Perhaps the person behind it has something to do with Soho's death.
It seems that she wants to take a good look at what happened back then.
She set her eyes on Zhang Zhiwei, "So what is embarrassing for adults is that they can't return the cloth shop under He Dafu's name to Zhou Jiaorui, right?" ”
"Exactly."
Zhang Zhiwei raised his hand to wipe the fine sweat on his forehead.
He has racked his brains for this matter in the past few days, and has been thinking about how to explain to Ah Yao, so as not to offend the noble person who the prince and princess personally ordered to take care of.
"Adults don't have to be embarrassed, just do business, and I'll take care of the rest."
Zhang Zhiwei breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her with a grateful face, "Thank you for your kindness." ”
"What about Su Kee's arson?" Yao asked.
Zhang Zhiwei quickly changed his face again, "Su Ji's arson case is a bit complicated, and this official is still investigating." ”
"What did you find?"
"According to a few of your Su Ji buddies, they were knocked unconscious by the gangsters who suddenly broke into the store and dragged them to the backyard, and the gangsters then set a fire to Su Ji.
The official ordered the officials to track down the street for a long time, but they did not find out the whereabouts of these gangsters who injured people and set fires, and the official ...... "Zhang Zhiwei faced Ayao without shame."
"These gangsters came prepared at a glance, knowing that I went to the Chamber of Commerce that day, they broke into Su Ji and injured the guys and then set it on fire, if I didn't rush back to Su Ji in time, I am afraid that a few guys in the backyard would also be killed in the fire."
Zhang Zhiwei nodded, "This matter is extremely bad, and the official will continue to investigate, and the gangsters will definitely be brought to justice." ”
"Then there's Lord Lao Zhang."
"The girl doesn't blame the official for his incompetence, the official is already very content."
"Your Excellency is serious."
After the two exchanged a few words, Zhang Zhiwei personally sent Ayao out.
The two stood outside the government gate to say goodbye, and a carriage suddenly stopped outside the government office, and a fiery figure got down from the carriage.
"A-Yao, are you okay?"
Seeing this, Zhang Zhiwei immediately bowed and saluted, "Xiaguan will see the fourth princess." ”
Li Lin didn't bother to pay attention to Zhang Zhiwei, and pulled Ah Yao to look up and down to make sure that she was not injured.
"What's the matter with you Su Ji?"
She smiled at Li Lin, "It's all trivial. ”
"It's all on fire or what's the matter? Parent ......"
Catching a glimpse of Zhang Zhiwei still there, Li Lin approached her and whispered: "We don't dare to tell our father about this, for fear that he will worry about you if he knows. ”
"I'm really fine."
Li Lin walked up to Zhang Zhiwei and asked, "Master Zhang, what's going on with Su Ji's arson case?" Did the arsonist get caught? ”
"If you go back to the fourth princess, the arsonist hasn't been caught yet, but the lower officials are actively dispatching people to track it down."
"It's been a few days, and you haven't caught the murderer yet?"
Zhang Zhiwei lowered his head, not daring to look at Li Lin.
"Lift your head up." Li Lin ordered.
"Yes."
Li Lin warned with a serious face, "Princess Ben orders you to arrest the gangsters as soon as possible, if you let A-Yao make a mistake, you should be careful of your head!" ”
"Yes, Xia Guan understands."
Ah Yao looked at Li Lin helplessly, "Don't scare Lord Zhang." ”
"I didn't scare him, I said it was true."
Zhang Zhiwei stood trembling in place, and his heart was always in his throat.
Ah Yao approached Zhang Zhiwei and explained with a smile: "The fourth princess is joking with you, Lord Zhang, don't take it to heart, just do your best." ”
"The lower officials will definitely do their best to investigate this case."
"There's Lord Lao Zhang."
"You're welcome, girl."
After sending off A-Yao and Li Lin, Zhang Zhiwei breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his life had finally been saved.
The official came over and asked in a low voice, "My lord, what is the origin of this A-Yao?" Why did the second prince and the fourth princess defend her like this? ”
"It's someone we can't afford to mess with."
After speaking, Zhang Zhiwei turned his head to look at the officer, "What are you still doing in a daze?" Hurry up and investigate the arsonist, if I can't find you again, I'm afraid my life will be lost. ”
"Yes."
Ah Yao got into Li Lin's carriage, and Li Lin pulled her endlessly.
"It's been a long time since I've seen you, you've lost weight? I heard that you have been very busy lately, and I dare not bother you. ”
"It's okay, it's not too busy." Ah Yao said.
Li Lin sighed faintly, "I've been very busy lately, and I finally got out of the palace, and now I'm going back again." ”
"What have you been up to lately?"
Li Lin said helplessly: "My third brother is sick, and my mother is so anxious that she has lost her soul, I want to comfort my mother again, and I have to pay attention to the third brother's side, so I am naturally very busy." ”
"Your third brother is sick? Is it serious? What did the Imperial Doctor say? ”
"My third brother has been weak since he was a child, he rarely goes out to see people, he has recently been infected with wind and cold, and he has been coughing and not getting better, and the imperial doctors in the palace have seen all the improvements."
Ah Yao thought for a while and said, "Why don't I go into the palace and take a look?" ”
Li Lin looked at her in surprise, "That's right! I almost forgot that you are also a doctor, so we will enter the palace. ”
"Hmm."
Although she still has a lot of things to arrange, Li Lin and Concubine Wan have helped her a lot, and now that the third prince Li Tao is seriously ill, she naturally can't sit idly by.
Ah Yao arrived at the gate of the palace in Li Lin's carriage, got off the car and walked into the palace.
Li Lin took A-Yao to the prince's bedroom of Li Tao, and was just about to go in when she saw Concubine Wan coming out of it.
Concubine Wan looked at Ah Yao in surprise, "Ah Yao? What are you doing here? ”
"Mother, I brought A-Yao to the third brother to see the disease." Li Lin hurriedly explained.
"Nonsense!"
Concubine Wan changed her face and reprimanded.
Li Lin approached and explained again, "I'm not messing around, A-Yao is also a doctor, her medical skills are very good, she also saved me in Dongli before, she must have a way to save the third brother." ”
"Linlin ......"
Li Lin interrupted Concubine Wan's words, "Mother, let A-Yao try it!" ”
Ah Yao stepped forward and said respectfully to Concubine Wan: "I am a teacher of Xiaoyaozi, if Concubine Wan can be trusted, you can let me go in and try it." ”
"Forget it! Ah Tao has a severe cold, I am afraid that he will pass you through the sickness, and besides, he has recently taken the medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Liu, and his condition has improved, so he will not bother Ah Yao. Concubine Wan said.
"Didn't you say before that Imperial Physician Liu's prescription didn't work? Why is the third brother getting better again today? Li Lin asked.
Concubine Wan glared at the mouthy Li Lin with a cold eye.
Li Lin didn't understand Concubine Wan's intentions, and continued chattering: "Why didn't Concubine Mother let A-Yao treat the third brother? ”
"Li Lin! Shut up! Concubine Wan reprimanded coldly.
"The Mother ......"
Ah Yao interrupted Li Lin in a loud voice, "Since Niang Niang said that the third prince's condition is improving, then Ah Yao will not bother for now, and Ah Yao will retreat first." ”
"Okay." Concubine Wan said with a smile.
A-Yao dragged Li Lin out of the prince's office.
Seeing the two walk away, Concubine Wan hurriedly returned to Li Tao's room.
The curtains in Li Tao's room were tightly drawn, there was not a single gap, and the whole room was so dark that no light could be seen.
After Concubine Wan opened the door and entered the house, she hurriedly closed the door and approached the bed.
"Mother, who was talking outside just now?" Li Tao asked.
"It's Linlin who came with A-Yao."
Li Tao smiled, "Linlin seems to have a good relationship with Ah Yao. ”
"I heard that when I was in Kyoto, Ah Yao saved Linlin's life, and the relationship between the two has been very good ever since."
"Linlin is like this, if she recognizes someone, she will be good to her with her heart and lungs, which is not good."
"Linlin has her own measure, you just leave her alone, how are you?" Concubine Wan asked.
