The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 205 Rejection from the Five Governments

After Lu Luo Luo told the truth, Lu Sen was thinking about what Qiao Mansion would do.

After all, the eldest son of General Zhennan was bitten by a poisonous snake and died last year. This year, his daughter unfortunately drowned. A bereaved daughter, white-haired people send black-haired people twice every two years, not to mention Mrs. Qiao spit out a mouthful of blood after hearing that her daughter died, and she is still unconscious. Rao is General Qiao, an indomitable general. Broken all over the place.

I didn't expect to hear the drum beating today, it was Mrs. Qiao who brought a complaint to Xi Yanxi, the daughter of Xi Yushi.

Even though he knew that Miss Xi's family was innocent, he had to enforce the law impartially.

It is expected that Miss Xi's family is reasonable, as long as the matter is clearly stated, then the problem will not be a big deal. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qiao is a difficult person, and she insists on Miss Xi's family to force Miss Qiao's family He publicly admitted that he set up a scheme to cling to his younger brother, and then Miss Qiao's family was ashamed to see others again, and she jumped off the stone bridge in anger, proving her innocence by dying.

From this point alone, Miss Xi's family did have something to do with Miss Qiao's death.

But at this point, it is not just Miss Xi's death that is related to Miss Qiao's, but his second brother, the two young ladies of the Zeng family, the eldest lady of the Dong family, Xiang Xiang, etc. The young lady of the Jiang family, and the eldest lady of the Meng family are all involved.

Mrs. Qiao's lawsuit is obviously only suing Miss Xi's family, taking the best soft persimmon among all the noble ladies to kill Miss Qiao's family. Isn't she trying to make up for the failure of the second wife of Qiao's family to protect her? Qiao Qian inherited the fault of the last bit of blood.

Qiao Wanji has no talent and incompetence, and he was able to sit on the fifth-rank Langzhong position in the Ministry of Rites. Qiao Qiancheng secretly operated it back then. If not, Qiao Wanji would not have been able to enter the sixth-rank department, and he may still be just an unknown little official.

Therefore, Mrs. Qiao wanted Miss Xi's family to take care of her niece's life. In fact, it was very easy to understand, and he could understand it too.

Having been in the officialdom for so many years, he has seen and experienced everything from black to white and gray, and the officials before his eyes are just different. As the chief official of the Beijing Yamen, as soon as he went to justice and listened to the statements of both sides, he saw it all at a glance and expected the outcome.

Looking at Miss Xi's family again, there was only a sigh in her eyes.

He couldn't feel sorry for her if she wasn't his own daughter, but it was a pity that she had to sacrifice her youthful years for the fame and fortune of the regime, even though it was common.

He also asked his second brother to be notified of the matter, and the second brother's response was that it should be tried as it should be.

The second brother's letting go clearly shows that the second brother doesn't care about Xi Yanchan's life, and it is also in line with the second brother's style of only caring about himself and having fun without caring about the lives of outsiders.

In order to defend her innocence, Ms. Xi's family wisely told the ladies involved in the case one by one in the courtroom. Thinking that they could testify for her, she naturally mentioned his second brother.

Since they are witnesses mentioned by the defendant, and their identities are not ordinary, it is impossible for them to come to the court one by one for questioning.

Especially those few, all of them are young ladies from wealthy families. They are all wealthy and would not easily show up in court.

Sure enough, the Wen Baotou he sent to various governments to inquire asked the Yamen servants to return the news, all of which confirmed his expectations.

Zeng's Mansion, Xiang's Mansion, Jiang's Mansion, Dong's Mansion, including his Lu Mansion, all five mansions have been visited, and the results of Wen's arrest and questioning are all between Miss Qiao's and Miss Xi's. grievances.

Obviously, they didn't want to meddle in this person's fate, they didn't want to care about the contest between Qiao's mansion and Xi's mansion, just like his second brother, they didn't care about Miss Xi's life or death.

These are official ladies who grew up enjoying glory and wealth since childhood and had no worries about livelihood. They not only received the glory and wealth given to them by their parents, but they were also taught that their own residence should be the most important thing in everything.

It may not be their original intention to refuse to reach out for Miss Xi's family, but it is definitely the intention of the elders in their respective mansions.

After all, there are two people in the Xi Mansion. The eldest brother, Xi Youye, is just a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs. The second brother, Xi Youyan, is just the junior censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. However, the Qiao Mansion is quite different. They are also two people. The second brother, Qiao Wanji, has no Da Yong is only a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, but Qiao Qiancheng, the head of the house, is one of the generals of the Four Expeditions, General Zhennan, a second-rank senior official, and has illustrious military exploits.

Moreover, although Qiao Qiancheng was incapable of raising children, so that his children died early, but Qiao Qiancheng himself was extremely good, with an upright character, serving the people and the country, and he was indeed a pillar of the imperial court.

In such a comparison, even if the heads of the various households knew that Miss Xi was indeed innocent in the death of Miss Qiao, but if Xi Yanxi died, it would be able to calm the anger of General Zhennan and equal to Qiao Qian. Bearing the grief and indignation in my heart, why not?

Not only is it possible, it’s even very cost-effective.

You must know that once the case is concluded, Miss Xi's family really deserves the life of Miss Qiao's family. Apart from the attitude of the Meng Mansion that has not yet been reported, General Zhennan will also owe favors to various governments to varying degrees.

On top of the generals of the Four Expeditions, there are also the generals of the Fuguo. As the generals of the Wei Dynasty, they are all important officials of the court that Emperor Zong relies on, just like the civil servants that Emperor Zong relies on, and their influence on the court is not insignificant.

Although the Wei Dynasty was prosperous, it could be considered peaceful. However, there were many provocations and disturbances from neighboring countries on the border. It was only thanks to the generals of the auxiliary state and the generals of the Four Expeditions to guard Anbian that the people could live and work in peace and contentment, and your majesty could sleep peacefully.

This is also the main reason why the governments do not want to offend the Qiao family.

Therefore, Wen Tutou visited the various prefectures, and the results obtained from the five prefectures were all useless words. Lu Sen was not surprised, and even thought this was a normal result.

There is only one Meng family left.

I don't know how Miss Meng, who has the name of Meng Bandit, will respond.

Today, the court was not open, and people were not allowed to watch. However, Kite came with an order, so he could not return without success. He took an unusual way, climbed over the wall and sneaked in, and quietly listened on the outside of the Jing Yamen lobby.

At this time, the lobby was also silent.

Because he wanted to interrogate the young masters and ladies involved in each government, Lu Sen ordered the court to be temporarily adjourned.

He went to the back hall to rest by himself. Mrs. Qiao was sitting in a chair on one side of the hall, and Xi Yanjuan stood aside as if she had lost her soul.

Kite looked at Xi Yanxi who was so heartbroken, and she somewhat understood. During this period of temporary rest and promotion, she sneaked into the back hall and heard a yamen servant report to Lu Fuyin, saying that the Meng family should be removed. In addition, the inquiry results of the other five prefectures.

As a result, Judu Yandao did not know about the grudge between Qiao Sang and Xi Yanwen.

In other words, even Lu Luo, Dong Linglong, Jiang Ziyao, Xiang Zheng and Zeng Chongjin Zeng Chongrong will not become Xi Yanwen's witnesses to prove that Qiao Sang's death has nothing to do with her.

The refusal of Wufu to testify will directly push Xi Yanjuan into the gate of hell.

Now, only the result of the inquiry from my own lady has not yet been sent back.
