Great Qin's son-in-law

Chapter 115 Censor Qi Ji General Qiang Yan! (seeking subscription)
Zheng An looked uneasy in the room.

He had already received the news that his father (uncle) Ji had been arrested. When he heard the news, he was a little dazed at the time, and then there was a hint of anger in his eyes.

He has stayed in prison.

Naturally, he knew what prison Cao Xi's actions meant.

This is public revenge.

But now he is just a head of Guizhou, not even a petty official, unable to do anything, he can only walk around anxiously in the room.

At this time.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

Zheng An's face brightened, knowing that it was Zheng Xuan who had returned, he didn't care to put on his boots, and ran out of the house in three steps at a time.

Zheng Xuan spent the whole day sorting out the account books at the Railway Bureau.

It was very late to get up and go home.

open the door.

He saw Zheng An waiting at the door barefoot.

Zheng Xuan immediately scolded: "It's cold, what are you doing standing at the door with bare feet?"

immediately.

He realized it was wrong.

He still knows his own son very well.

Zheng An's abnormal behavior in the past was usually when he committed a crime. Thinking of this, Zheng Xuan's face darkened.

Zheng An's eyes dodged, not daring to look directly.

can only whisper:
"Ah Weng, something has happened."

Zheng Xuan said angrily:

"Seeing you like this, how can I not know what happened?"

"Say!"

"What trouble did you go out again?"

"I told you three times and five times before, to let you stay at home during this time, don't go out, don't go out, and ignore my words."

"Say! What are you doing again?"

Zheng An felt aggrieved.

He didn't leave the gate today.

But Zheng Xuan was on the verge of making trouble, so he didn't dare to provoke him, so he could only explain in a low voice: "Ah Weng didn't cause trouble, I didn't go out today."

Zheng Xuan frowned.

In a cold voice:
"Didn't you cause trouble?"

"Then what did you say happened?"

Zheng An looked around, closed the door, and said in a low voice: "It's not me who caused the trouble, but something happened to Ji's father. Just now a jail official came over and told me that Ji's father was arrested and sent to the prison."

Zheng Xuan frowned even tighter.

Although he has never worked in other government offices, he also knows some common sense. The prison office is responsible for handling civil cases in Xianyang and its surrounding areas. Zheng Sheng is an engineer and an official, and he does not belong to the prison office at all.

Why would the prison office dare to arrest people?

but.

He didn't speak, and let Zheng An speak.

Zheng An continued:
"I'm not too sure either."

"The jail official said that Ji's father was arrested, and he was sued to the prison office by a person, saying that Ji's father stole other people's treasures."

"When Hua Yu asked about the case, Prison Cao Xi took the case directly."

"That means Father Ji stole it."

"As soon as the case was established, because Ji's father was an engineer in the workshop, the prison office had no right to hear it, so I asked other prison officials to sort out a copy of the case, and then sent Ji's father and the copy to him overnight. Arrived to serve the imperial censor."

"This is clearly public revenge!"

"Ah Weng, why don't we go and sue him too."

Zheng Xuan glanced at Zheng An.

In a cold voice:
"The question now is to sue?"

"What's the use of suing him? Can you save your father Ji?"

"Even if you succeed, the sex will at most be considered dereliction of duty, and you will be fined for a few months. Other than that, it will have no effect on him."

"But your Ji father is going to have an accident, that's what's really going on!"

"My mother and maidservant too!"

"There is nothing to worry about."

"I just dealt with your affairs on the front foot, and he caused trouble for me on the back foot."

Zheng Xuan was also furious.

If it wasn't for his relatives who caused the trouble, he really wished he could just let it go. They were all troublemakers, and he never made people feel at ease.

there has never been!

But he can't ignore it.

Zheng Sheng knows that he has too many things.

They were plotting against Qin Luoheng before, and it was Zheng Sheng who was in charge. If Zheng Sheng couldn't get out, when the time came, Qin Luoheng would go to the workshop to get things, and all of this would be exposed.

Zheng Xuan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

He said solemnly:

"Is that jailer trustworthy?"

"Did he tell who the person who sued your father?"

"Also, what was your father's attitude towards this case at that time? Was he strongly opposed, kept silent, or argued hard."

"Tell me all about it."

Zheng An wryly smiled and said:
"Ah Weng, that's a jailer. How could he know so much information, but what he said should be true. I sent the official to my aunt just now, but Ji's father did not come back."

"As for the other questions that Aon asked."

"I do not know."

"The jailer didn't say anything either."

Zheng Xuan rushed forward angrily.

scolded:

"My mother and maidservant too!"

"I don't know who sued, I don't know what I sued, I don't know if your father Ji stole or not, I don't know anything, what do you know? What do you want me to do?"

"You still think I can forcefully break into the censor?"

Zheng An stood aside tremblingly, not daring to say anything.

After cursing a few times.

Zheng Xuan also suppressed the anger in his heart.

He walked back and forth in the courtyard, thinking about how to rescue Zheng Sheng.

It is impossible for Zheng Sheng not to save him, this is his own younger brother, not to mention that Zheng Sheng still has something to do.

a long time.

Zheng Xuan's footsteps stopped.

He finally figured it out, and the most urgent thing right now is to figure out the situation. Now they are blind and don't know anything, and it's useless to worry about it.

There is only one way to figure out the ins and outs.

Enter the censor.

It's just that he has no relationship with the people in Yushifu, so if he came to the door for no reason, the other party might not even see him at all.

After much deliberation, he could only rely on gift giving.

Zheng Xuan said to Zheng Xuan, "Go and get my treasured Guizhang."

Zheng An opened his eyes wide.

Puzzled:
"A Weng? What are you doing with Guizhang?"

"That's what you managed to steal back then."

Zheng Xuan said angrily:

"Let you go and go!"

"Based on your Ji father's character, if something happens, do you think we won't be implicated?"

"Let's not talk about it, let's just say that a few days ago you helped you mend the basket and embezzled the amount of wrought iron that belonged to Qin Luoheng. If your father Ji is really locked in, this will be exposed."

"When."

"I can't run away with you!"

"You think I'm willing to take out this Guizhang?"

"That was the treasure I stole from the palace of Chu at the risk of losing my head when I broke Chu."

"I planned to keep this Guizhang as a family heirloom and pass it down from generation to generation."

"but now"

"In order to save your father Ji, I can only take it out."

"I'm reluctant to let the child catch the wolf."

"If you don't take out this Guizhang, you don't want to see those censors. If you can't see the censor, how can you go to prison and see your father Ji? How can you know the ins and outs of all this?"

"If you give up, you will get something!"

"This dead thing is used to save lives!"

Zheng An's face was full of distress.

But Zheng Xuan was completely determined.

see.

Zheng An had no choice but to take Guizhang, and when he handed it over to Zheng Xuan, his eyes were full of reluctance. Zheng Xuan took Guizhang, stuffed it into his sleeve, and went out the door.

He is going to visit Yu Shi Qi Ji.

There are 36 censors in Daqin, but Zheng Xuan doesn't know many of them.

The only one who had contact was Qi Ji.

When the Chu was conquered, he was the Lord of the Two or Five Hundreds, and Qi Ji was the right general. He was under Qi Ji's command at that time, and he could barely be regarded as Qi Ji's old department.

but.

Zheng Xuan didn't think Qi Ji would remember him.

He only hoped that he could use this relationship to enter Qi's house, and then use this Guizhang to impress Qi Ji, asking him to allow him to enter the prison of Shi Yushi to check on Zheng Sheng's situation.

It didn't take long.

Zheng Xuan arrived at Qi's house.

He knocked on the door and waited respectfully aside.

Washington.

The lights in Washington are bright tonight.

But there are actually not many people in the mansion.

Apart from Huafu and his son, there were only Yang Duanhe and Qiang Lei (lei).

Yang Duanhe sat by the case, his eyes full of puzzlement.

Today's court meeting ended, Huafu didn't know why, he suddenly stopped him and asked him to gather in Washington at night, but he didn't say the reason directly.

The same is true for Qiang Li.

The two sat beside the case, a little confused about the situation, they knew that Huafu had been very active recently, but they didn't understand why Huafu called them here.

They haven't been together for a long time.

Soon.

Huafu arrived at the hall.

Yang Duanhe and Qiang Li slightly cupped their hands.

Their official positions are not under Huafu, so naturally they don't need to pay any respects.

Yang Duanhe said vigilantly:

"Huafu, what do you want to do?"

"Don't get me wrong."

"Back then, I helped you, but it hurt me, Mrs. Yang, badly."

"At that time, if it weren't for the fact that Wang's military achievements were too high, I would have been left idle by His Majesty. Even so, my Yang family has not been relieved until now. Apart from me, the highest in the court is only a doctor, like Yang Xiong and Yang Xiong. Xi, Yang Xi (jiu) and others are only a school lieutenant in the army."

"I warn you, don't think about anything else."

Yang Duanhe is really a little scared.

Hua Fu's complexion turned black.

but.

He really can't say anything.

In the forced palace that year, they rushed to the front, and were the most suppressed by His Majesty. They almost disappeared from the court. At that time, they destroyed Chu, Qi, and Yan. In the three battles, they Huashi, Baishi, Simashi, Gan The families of the Yang family and the Yang family were directly excluded from the army by His Majesty.

Three battles to destroy the country.

These clans have done nothing.

After the founding of the country, their situation did not get any better.

Those who did not participate in that incident, like the children of the Feng, Meng, and Wang clans, directly entered the fast lane for promotion after becoming officials for a while, while the children of these clans could only go from being a soldier to a senior official step by step. climb up.

The speed of promotion varies greatly.

Qiang Lu and Yang Duanhe just want to perform well in front of His Majesty, so that His Majesty can forgive them and make their juniors feel better.

As for the others, they didn't think about it.

I dare not think about it.

I was really afraid of being suppressed.

Qiang Lu stared at Huafu suspiciously, like staring at a thief. If they hadn't had decades of friendship with Huafu, he wouldn't even want to come here this time.

The ghost knows what Huafu is up to.

He had no desire to participate.

see.

Hua Fu's face was a bit ugly, and he scolded:
"You two beetles, I am so unbearable in your eyes? Everyone guards against me like a thief. You are miserable, but I am not miserable?"

"I think so?"

"I didn't make the decision alone."

"You didn't stop it then."

"Now all the blame is on my head. You guys, if I had known, I wouldn't have asked you to come here. I'm really pissed off."

Yang Duanhe was completely unmoved.

He has known Huafu for many years, and he knows Huafu's nature well, so he didn't listen to Huafu's words at all.

Qiang Yan was dissatisfied and said:
"Brother Hua, it's late at night, speak up when you have something to say."

"Stop beating around the bush here."

The anger on Hua Fu's face faded away.

Ning Shen said:
"I met the old prime minister yesterday."

"The old prime minister went to His Majesty and said bluntly that he wanted to resign, but His Majesty did not approve, but the old prime minister revealed a piece of information to me."

"What information?" Yang Duan asked in harmony.

Hua Fu lowered his voice and said:
"The old prime minister made a suggestion to His Majesty."

"He suggested that His Majesty promote us old clans."

"In addition, His Majesty also personally told the old prime minister one thing. The Great Qin will soon raise troops to attack the Huns in the north and conquer Baiyue in the south."

Xingbing?

Qiang Li and Yang Duanhe's eyes lit up.

But soon.

The eyes of the two dimmed.

Even if you raise troops, His Majesty may not use them.

The main general of the Northern Expedition has been decided long ago.

Meng Tian!

Everyone knows this.

As for taking Baiyue from the south, they don't know yet, but since His Majesty has told the old prime minister, he must have already decided on the candidate for the chief general.

They have no chance.

immediately.

Yang Duanhe realized something was wrong.

questioned:
"wrong."

"This is what His Majesty told the old prime minister."

"It's all military secrets."

"The old prime minister has always been cautious and never made such mistakes. Are you sure this is what the old prime minister said?"

Hua Fu nodded and said affirmatively, "I'm very sure!"

"Now you know why I called you here?"

"This is our chance."

"Although it is impossible for us to lead the army ourselves, and His Majesty will not allow us to lead the army, the children of our various families can use this to gain military merits and return to the eyes of the world. The outstanding children of each family can even use these military exploits , enter the court hall."

Qiang Li frowned and said:
"Although the old prime minister holds a very high status in His Majesty's heart, it's just a word from the old prime minister that His Majesty will change his mind. Isn't it taken for granted?"

"and"

"Why do you think this is His Majesty's thoughts, rather than the obsession of the old prime minister before retiring?"

Yang Duanhe also looked at Huafu.

Since Huafu's tone is so sure, there must be a reason.

Huafu said in a deep voice:
"This is His Majesty's mind!"

"The old prime minister does have old feelings for us, but what kind of person is your majesty? How can the old prime minister not know, with the old prime minister's heart, dare to reveal such a big secret?"

"The old prime minister will retire soon, why bother to provoke His Majesty at this time?"

"In your place, would you do this kind of thing?"

Qiang Li and Yang Duanhe thought for a moment, then shook their heads.

When they want to retreat, they will definitely not get involved in anything. It is enough to be able to retreat safely. It is not necessary or worthwhile to get involved in other things.

Think of this.

There was a strange look in the eyes of both of them.

Hua Fu smiled and said: "There is a reason for all this."

"What's the reason?" Qiang Yan asked.

Hua Fu looked around cautiously, with a gleam in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Because that person is back."

"Who?" The two were even more confused.

Huafu said in a deep voice:
"We worked so hard for it back then, and even did not hesitate to anger His Majesty, so that our clans were reduced to where they are today."

"He is back!!!"
