Chapter 336: Imprisonment
Xiahou Shuang held the letter of the second uncle in his hand, and walked quickly to Xiao Xinrong's study, Xiao Xinrong, who was discussing things with his staff, saw that Xiahou Shuang actually came, and his heart was different, so he hurriedly waved his hand to let everyone retreat and asked, "Shuang'er, why are you here?"
"Brother Chun, just now the second uncle asked someone to send a letter, you can take a look. ”
Xiao Xinrong hurriedly read the ten lines at a glance after taking it, and said in a deep voice: "I was going to inform you about this matter, but I didn't get to the second uncle first, but I actually took a step ahead of the second uncle." After finishing speaking, he said: "Don't worry, I have already arranged for someone to investigate, and there will be results soon." ”
Xiahou Shuang nodded worriedly: "The cemetery in the house was built very early, and every year my grandmother will send people back to worship, but there has never been an accident of bullying the weak, I don't know why there is such a thing now,"
"Don't be afraid, even if you come for the Hou Mansion, you must also have evidence, otherwise how can you shake the reputation of the Hou Mansion for a hundred years with a few small words, it's really a fool's dream!" Xiao Xinrong comforted.
didn't let the two wait too long, and the person who went to investigate came to report that Li An had a favorite concubine, and I heard that a palace maid in King An's mansion was the same township as this concubine, and the two occasionally interacted.
"Could it be that he was instructed by King An?" asked Xiahou Shuang.
King An's weak health is well known, but it has only improved slightly in the past two years after getting married, and King An and Princess Tong Yingxuan have a deep relationship as husband and wife, and they don't seem to want to be the ones who want to compete for the throne.
"Hmph, none of these royal brothers of this king is a fuel-efficient lamp, even if King An comes to be stable but can't be underestimated, from today on, I will order people to watch King An's mansion to see if they really have dealings. Xiao Xinrong's face was cold, the battle for the storage position was originally a bloody road, but when he stretched out his hand to Xiahou Shuang, Xiao Xinrong would not tolerate it.
People have reverse scales, and now Xiahou Shuang is his own reverse scales.
Half a month has passed, and the people who went to monitor King An's mansion came to report that King An accompanied his wife and daughter every day and it seemed that there was nothing unusual.
This puzzled Xiahou Shuang and Xiao Xinrong, and at the same time, the results of the investigation came, and the people sent by Emperor Xuanhua were said to have found the witnesses at that time and were preparing to escort them back to Beijing.
Everyone in Xiahou Mansion was anxious, but for fear of arousing Emperor Xuanhua's dissatisfaction, they all did not dare to find out who this person was, as long as they waited for someone to arrive in the capital to make plans.
But a bad news came, which made everyone in Xiahou Mansion frightened like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Xiahou Lin was arrested and imprisoned for dereliction of duty!
Xiahou Linguan worships the squire of the Sanpin Military Department, and the Military Department is in charge of the world's military affairs.
His arrest and imprisonment was like a thunderbolt in the air, which made people unbelievable.
When the news came back to Xiahou Mansion, the Wang family almost fainted when they heard it, and they were helped all the way to Yanhe Hall with sobbing.
"Mother, what's wrong with this master, how can he be derelict in his duties?" Wang didn't believe it, if it was someone else, it was possible, but the old-fashioned Xiahou Lin didn't have this possibility.
"What's the panic!" The second child just hasn't asked about the prison yet, shut up for me, crying and crying!" said the old lady with a gloomy face.
Wang was so frightened that he quickly shut up, but the appearance of the old lady gave Wang a reassurance, and it seemed that his mother had already taken a countermeasure.
At this time, after Xiahou Xuan entered the house, the old lady asked, "How is it?"
"The second uncle was directly taken away by the people of Dali Temple in the yamen today, and the grandson found a friend of Dali Temple to quietly spy on the news, this matter was after the early dynasty, His Majesty summoned Dali Temple Qing to personally order. ”
"I don't know what the specific thing is now, but my grandson has already explained that I will let people take care of the second uncle. ”
The news was heard, but what exactly it was was unknown, and everyone was uneasy.
In the evening, Xiahou Shuang also returned to the Hou Mansion, and when the Wang family saw Xiahou Shuang come back, it was like finding a backbone, and cried in front of Xiahou Shuang: "I hope the princess can ask the prince to save the master, the master is an innocent person, he must not do such a thing." ”
Poor Wang just experienced the pain of his beloved daughter being injured and walking through the ghost gate, and then Xiahou Jing was given marriage, and he was not happy for a few days, which was a disaster from heaven, which really made Wang anxious, and people were also a lot haggard.
"Second aunt, don't panic first, the prince has already sent someone to inquire about the news, and there will be a result soon. Xiahou Shuang picked up Wang and comforted him carefully.
Now Prince Alcohol Mansion and Xiahou Mansion are already grasshoppers on a rope, if someone really attacks Xiahou Mansion, Xiahou Shuang, the eldest lady of Xiahou Mansion, is not happy, Xiahou Shuang is so anxious when she learns this news.
After the Wang family retreated, the old lady asked, "Frost girl, what do you think about this matter?"
Xiahou Shuang said with a cold look: "First of all, some people said that our cemetery was built to bully the weak, and someone played the second uncle, heh, if we can't see the other party's intentions now, then wouldn't we live in vain!"
"It's a pity that the prince only found out that a palace maid in King An's mansion had a relationship with that Li An's concubine, but there is no specific evidence,"
"This came suddenly, but it was obviously coming at us, the more we can't panic at this time, and we are discussing it after the prince listens to this matter. "When the old lady was young, because of the sudden death of the old marquis, she raised several underage children in the house alone, and she had to beware of the clansmen who were eyeing each other with Xiao thoughts, and she had experienced all kinds of winds and waves.
Now that he has entered the age of sixties, his heart is even more firm, Xiahou Shuang was affected by it, and his heart also settled down, and he accompanied his grandmother to wait for Xiao Xinrong to send news.
In the evening, Xiao Xinrong sent news that Xiahou Lin was imprisoned because a batch of weapons was now missing, and the person who handled it was Xiahou Lin, this batch of weapons was made of pure steel, which was one of the materials in reserve, and he was afraid that one day the border would be closed in the war and prepared, but he didn't expect it to disappear now.
No wonder His Majesty was furious, it was such a big matter as the border pass's war preparations, how could he be careless, Emperor Xuanhua was furious, and many people from Xiahou Lin were put in prison.
"How can a good person disappear?" The old lady was shocked, she couldn't imagine that such a powerful means of the people behind the scenes could do such a thing at the feet of the Son of Heaven, this method is not something that ordinary people can do.
"In any case, the top priority now is to recover the military funds first, and only by recovering the military assets can the second uncle's crime be cleared. Xiahou Shuang frowned and said.
"Well, you go back first and discuss with the prince, grandmother sent someone out to investigate, hmph, I want to see who is the divine who dares to do it on the head of Xiahou Mansion!" said the old lady with an angry face.
