Chapter 65: Hospitality
In the end, An Yibo's charges were tightly covered.
He had too much contact with Li Mi, and collected money for Li Mi in order to make Li Mi's recovery.
Xu Jian has quite an opinion on this case.
He once mentioned in the book that An Yibo may not even know whether Li Mi is dead or alive, and where he is.
This fold, of course, was returned.
And the old An Yibo couldn't stand the interrogation again and again, and hit the wall in prison and died.
Li Mi's whereabouts are impossible to ask.
The origin of the two gold bricks has also been cut off.
But the turmoil caused by this incident did not disappear, but became bigger and bigger, and finally affected Cheng Cheng Bofu and Xu Jian.
Xu Jian's supervision was not good for Anyibo's mansion, fined him money, and thought about it behind closed doors.
An Yibo's in-law, Dingbei Hou, was implicated, and two gold bricks with traces were also found in the Hou mansion.
The sincerity of the Bofu and the Dingbei Hou Mansion are next to each other, and the sins of "not reporting what you know" and "harboring evil intentions" are all deducted.
has come to that point, no one is stupid, and naturally knows that under the struggle for imperial power, it is not the point to fabricate any charges, they are all just victims.
The old accounts were turned over one by one, thanks to the good foundation of the Lin family, and in the end, they got a "grace" result, only all the family property was confiscated, and Lin Yunyan, who had already married, was also deprived of the title of county lord, leaving only the identity of the Duchess of Fuguo.
And Fu Guogong himself was soon punished again and again......
In the years that followed, Lin Yunyan and Xu Jian had been trying to figure out the ins and outs of these gold bricks.
Does that trace really represent Li Mi?
Maybe it's just that the mold happens to have such a flaw?
Where does An Yibo start, and does the two pieces of Dingbei Hou Mansion have anything to do with An Yibo?
It was also during the investigation that Xu Jian accidentally inquired about the rumors that Laoshi Lane had dug up two boxes of gold bricks, and it had been seven or eight years since the rebuilding of Laoshi Lane, and the two owners had already left the capital with their families.
And Xu Jian is no longer the Duke of Fuguo, and it is no longer convenient for him to transfer the household registration documents in the yamen, and there are other things involved at that time......
They really didn't expect that the gold bricks dug up by two inconspicuous businessmen would also have traces.
Even if she started all over again, Lin Yunyan thought of the gold bricks in Honest Lane, and classified them as "treasures", silver money that was not in the accounts, and did not classify them as the cause of many things in her previous life.
After all, how could the windfall of a businessman repairing a house and doing business be connected with a common prince?
Returning the gold brick to Xu Jian, Lin Yunyan said: "I'm thinking about a problem now. ”
Xu Jian lowered his eyes and looked at her.
didn't urge, nor did he chase questions, he only expressed with his eyes that he was listening, waiting for Lin Yunyan to continue.
Lin Yunyan sorted out her thoughts and said, "Who originally belonged to these two boxes of gold bricks?" The two businessmen who came to the business of Honest Lane, their purpose is also gold bricks, right? Did the people behind them find out? ”
As she spoke, she heard a soft laugh.
Lin Yunyan raised her eyes and looked at the person who was laughing.
Looking at each other, the smile in Xu Jian's eyes was still gone, and he commented slowly: "There are a lot of questions." ”
Lin Yunyan glanced at him.
She sorted out her thoughts with questions, and she didn't really want Xu Jian to give corresponding answers.
Xu Jian teased her with what she just said, and Lin Yunyan said, "Then the grandfather of the country will pick one to answer." ”
The word "one" is very important.
fell into Xu Jian's ears, so that he could not hear the meaning of gritting his teeth, and he also knew that Lin Yunyan was very dissatisfied with his picking of words.
"The first, I don't know; The second, the obvious matter, whether you answer it or not, is the same," Xu Jian checked the gold brick in his hand, "The third, nine times out of ten, is the British Mansion, and we will know who it is when Sanchen comes back." ”
After this, two or three, Lin Yunyan was not angry, nor was she angry, but it was quite unexpected that the British government called.
At the same time, Sanchen hid in a corner, eavesdropping on the two people across the wall.
This is a garden in the south of Jingnan, the four seasons of the flower scene is good, the main house does not live in people, often open to the people to watch the flowers.
Recently, the autumn breeze has started, and it is the season of chrysanthemums.
The chrysanthemums in the garden are only half-opened, and there are not many people who enjoy the flowers, especially in this area, there are not a few pots of flowers, and no one comes over.
The merchant that Samchen followed was called Li Yuanfa, and the person who met Li Yuanfa came from the other side, and Samchen did not see the opposite side in order to hide his figure.
"There's something wrong with that guy Gao!" Li Yuanfa muttered, "Without saying a word, I sent those two brothers to the official directly, master, do you think he will know that there is something in the field?" ”
"No way, there's no leakage at all! What are they doing now? ”
Li Yuanfa replied: "They are going to dig up all of them now, saying that they have to be reinforced, and they have been doing it since yesterday." ”
"This is not unusual, that Jing Dafeng has a good reputation in the Jiangnan business field, and Honest Lane is his first transaction after entering Beijing, and he must want to do it well," another person said, "If it is done, the yamen will recognize him as a signboard, and whether he is working in the official family or other work in the future, the road will be smooth." ”
"But if you dig like this, you will dig things out sooner or later!" Li Yuanfa was in a hurry.
"I told you that you should do it while they were cleaning up and making a mess a while ago, hey! Let you bid a little higher than Jing Dafang! ”
Li Yuanfa didn't dare to reply.
Jing feasted on that posture, and it was inevitable to win it at a glance.
Chen Gui, who was backed by the sincerity of Bofu, went to talk to Jing Dafang, and finally gave up honestly, which shows that it is not a matter of adding money.
To put it bluntly, Jing Dafeng entered Beijing to play a signboard, what could be better than a messy honest alley?
You don't need to relocate, you can build it directly, and you can see immediate results.
In such a good job, Jing Dafeng has to earn even if he loses money.
"That's it!" Another said, "Time is running out, find a chance to try it out......"
The two discussed it and dispersed.
Sanchen didn't follow Li Yuanfa again, he quietly came out from behind the wall and followed the man from a distance.
When he got to a place where there were a little more people to admire the flowers, Sanchen stepped up, leaned against the crowd, and saw the true face of the man in the near distance.
Zhu Cheng, the fourth master of the British Mansion.
The goal was achieved, and Sanchen quickly returned to the peach kernel fast.
Xuan Su came to open the courtyard door for him.
When Sanchen entered, he happened to see Xu Jian and Lin Yunyan sitting at a stone table with utensils on the table.
Grandpa Guo and the county lord are playing chess?
Looking closer, Sanchen knew that he had seen it wrong.
The two chess baskets are in Xu Jian's hands, and they are still playing by themselves and themselves.
And the county lord is reading a book.
Samchen asked Xuansu in a low voice: "Grandpa Guo's hospitality is not suitable, right?" ”
Even if you want to play chess, you should invite the guests to play together, how can you and hang the guests aside?
Thinking of what Jing Dong's family said before returning to Jiangnan......
As long as the Jing Dong family looks at the two masters in front of them, they will probably change their views when there is no general appearance on the other side.
Xuan Su was about to answer, but he heard Xu Jian ask behind him, and he hurriedly motioned for Shenchen to come over.
Sanchen didn't dare to think about it anymore, saluted with the two, and said what he had gained.
"Zhu Cheng?" Xu Jian shook his head slowly.
Just listening to the name, he was not impressed by this person.
Lin Yunyan took a breath and said, "He is Zhu Fei's father. ”
And between Zhu Fei and her father, if Lin Yunyan is not mistaken, there are many conflicts between their father and daughter.
