spend time

Yang Zheng strode into the study room and kicked out the general. Sitting at the desk, he pulled out a letter from his uncle Yang Shilang.

This letter came five days ago. During these five days, Yang Zheng read this letter over and over ten times, and almost knew the contents by heart.

"...The impeachment of Nanyang Army Zuo Zhen caused a sensation in the court. Empress Dowager Zheng tried her best to protect the Nanyang Princess, but even Prime Minister Wang could not protect Zuo Zhen."

"Qiu Dianshan of Nanyang Palace resigned from his post and came to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to wait for a vacancy. Not many people know about this, and I am one of them."

"In my opinion, although the Princess of Nanyang is young, she is quite scheming. At this time, it is not appropriate to act in vain. You should continue to stay in the palace as an errand and do not show that you want to leave."

Seeing this, Yang Zheng sighed, holding his head in his hands, with a sad look on his face.

The eldest uncle is far away and has never seen the power of the princess. It's not something that can be described in a very scheming way. He is clearly cruel and ruthless!

The facts of this father-murder case are clear and clear. Why is there any need for him to interrogate and decide the case? It was obvious that the princess wanted to take the blame on him!

People have to bow their heads under the eaves. With a salary from the palace, he had to "share the worries" of the princess.

Yang Zheng sighed again, stood up and pushed open the door to the study, angrily scolding the boy outside the door: "What are you doing here? Why don't you hurry up and pack your luggage! Don't you know we're going to leave tomorrow at five o'clock?"

The boy, who was so scolded that he saw his master's incompetent and furious moral character, didn't even dare to fart and left in despair.

……

On the other side, Lu Junma, who got the news, was also a little confused.

"Shaohua really gave this order?"

Qin Hu, like the other guards, looked down on this Junma Lu from the bottom of his heart, but he was quite respectful on his face: "Yes, the princess specifically asked me to convey the message clearly. Please meet Junma Lu tomorrow morning." Together with Yang Huanxian, we set off for Ye County."

Yang Zheng went to interrogate the case, what was he going to do?

The more Lu Xuan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and kept asking: "I don't understand this murder case at all. Why did Shaohua let me go?"

Qin Hu didn't say a word before, and was waiting for this moment. He immediately replied calmly: "This is a murder case of a daughter killing her father. The man who was killed was the son-in-law of the Zhou family. After the death of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, he plotted He seizes the Zhou family's property. He also raises an outhouse and an outlaw son. He forces the Zhou family to recognize the outlaw son in order to enter the Zhou family tree and inherit the Zhou family's business in the future."

"Ms. Zhou refused. The man often insulted and beat her, and her daughter Zhou Ying was often beaten. Although Zhou Ying was only ten years old, she was a fiery man and had a dagger hidden on her body. When the man struck again, Zhou Ying stabbed her with a knife. Get into your father's back and kill him!"

"The princess asked Yang Wenhuan to go and try the case. She was probably afraid that Junma Lu would hear some rumors and become worried, so the princess asked Junma Lu to go with her."

Lu Xuan: "..."

No matter how deep Lu Xuan was in the city, he couldn't help being so overtly sarcastic. His fair and handsome face turned red and white, white and red again.

Qin Hu was secretly happy and resigned.

Lu Xuan forced a smile and followed Fang Quan to escort Qin Hu out of the yard.

When Fang Quan sent Qin Hu away and returned, he saw that his master's face was red and there were sparks in his eyes.

Fang Quan silently closed the study door.

The next moment, Lu Xuan became furious. He reached out and swept away the pen, ink and papers on the desk. They fell to the floor with a clang, and the ink in the inkstone splashed everywhere.

"What does she mean?" Lu Xuan was furious: "Is this lest I forget that I am my adopted son-in-law, and even try a murder case to humiliate my biological father?"

Fang Quan looked up at his master and said, "I'm afraid it's more than that."

Lu Xuan's face was twisted and his eyes were burning: "Why is it more than that? What else does she want? As a father, I am so respectful to my daughter that I almost grovel. What else does she want from me?"

Fang Quan sighed and said in a low voice: "I know that Commander Ma is not happy. However, the situation is like this, Commander Ma can only endure it." "That's what I think. The Commander-in-Chief's actions are very thoughtful and deliberate. Inviting the county horse to go should be more than a simple humiliation."

The two confidants follow each other, Bian Dong is careless and reckless, but Fang Quan is thoughtful and sharp. Lu Xuan usually trusted Fang Quan very much, and his anger subsided slightly: "In your opinion, what does the princess want me to do?"

Fang Quan raised his head and looked at his master: "I think the princess wants to use the commander's horse's words to spare Zhou Ying's death penalty!"

Lu Xuan: "..."

Lu Xuan was overwhelmed with anger before, but now he was reminded by Fang Quan, and he suddenly realized: "Yes, it must be the case. In this murder case, the father was the son-in-law, and the daughter was resentful because of her father's attempt to seize the family business, and she died in anger. Killing your father. According to Daliang law, it is an unforgivable death penalty."

"Even as the princess, she cannot ignore the laws of Daliang and pardon Zhou Ying at will."

"So, she thought of me. Like the man in this murder case, I am a son-in-law, so I am qualified to intercede for Zhou Ying... Humph! I just didn't get what she wanted!"

Lu Xuan did not look in the mirror, otherwise, he would probably be shocked by his distorted face at the moment: "She has never put me as a father in her eyes. She is disrespectful, unfilial, and condescending. Why should I please her and obey her wishes?" Why should I put my face on the ground and let her trample on me, and why should I take the blame for her?"

"I will never let her have her way!"

Fang Quan said nothing and allowed his master to vent his anger freely.

After Lu Xuan calmed down a little, Fang Quan opened his mouth and said, "I'll go pack my luggage first. I wonder how many people the commander is going to take with him?"

Lu Xuan waved his hand impatiently: "Let Bian Dong go too, and you can order two more as long as you like."

"Are Aunt Mei and Young Master going to accompany us?"

"No need." Lu Xuan became increasingly impatient: "What are they going to do?"

The Zhou family's adopted son-in-law raised three sons, Aunt Mei, Lu Ying and Lu Ruohua, and their status was actually a bit embarrassing. Seriously, there is no real difference. Where are you qualified to show up?

……

The next day, Lu Junma had a sleepless night. His eyes were green and his handsome face was a little haggard.

Yang Zheng didn't hesitate to give in too much, and his expression didn't look good.

The two met at the main entrance, slandering each other in their hearts and exchanging polite greetings. At this moment, the coachman from the palace drove a spacious carriage and stopped outside the main entrance.

Lu Xuan was a little surprised: "Yang Shenjun wants to go with his family?"

Yang Zheng was confused: "Time is urgent. I am going to handle a case trial. How can I take care of my family?"

But carriages with this kind of regulations are obviously only used by women’s families for traveling!

At this moment, I saw a beautiful and gentle woman walking over, accompanied by a handsome boy and a pretty girl.

It was Aunt Mei, mother and son.

Lu Xuan: "..."
