Graceful spring color
Chapter 160 Favors
In the past few days, all the gossip in Shengjing City has been on the same topic.
Zheng Wei has been talking a lot these days, but there is no clue to the case.
The mayor of Yongning County had no motive and no time to commit the crime, so he could not be the murderer behind the case.
But the people in Shengjing City are talkative, and the people in the city are afraid and hateful of the aristocratic family. Although they don't say it explicitly, the rumors in Tea House City are really talking about the Lord of Yongning County to death.
Those words sounded as if he had personally witnessed the county lord abducting people and hanging the white silk on the beam of the house, forcing the Wang family girl to die.
What's more, it was said that both the City Patrol Division and the Beizhen Fu Division were bribed by the Xie family. He and Lu Silin went into the Yongning County Lord's yard to inquire, but instead went in to accept bribes.
They are really ignorant villains. If the Xie family really wants to suppress him, let alone him. Even the palace will not even think about spreading this matter. But even though they say so, the case will still be investigated.
While holding the case, Zheng Wei asked his subordinates: "Master Lu, what have you been doing recently?"
"Master Lu and Mr. Wang's husband went to the official road where the Wang's girl had an accident a few days ago, but they haven't returned to the city yet."
Zheng Wei's eyelids jumped and he quickly asked: "Which Wang family husband?"
The subordinate was stunned: "Young Master of Langya Wang Family, Young Master Yan."
Zheng Wei's heart thumped, and he thought to himself: "It's over now."
Lu Silin wouldn't say anything bad to Xiao Langjun about him hiding out in the government office, right?
His voice was a little hoarse: "Then the Wang family are still crying outside the government office?"
The subordinate replied truthfully: "Today is the funeral of Miss Wang, and no one has been sent here."
Zheng Wei just slapped his head. He was so annoyed that he forgot about it.
"Take someone with me quickly."
Several horses galloped wildly outside the city. The handsome man on the horse had some green stubble on his face. His expression was very complicated at this time.
He and Lu Silin patrolled for several days near the place where Wang's husband disappeared, and then they found a woodcutter. After some questioning, they realized something was wrong.
According to the old man’s answer: “That day, he cut firewood and went down the mountain. When he was resting in a bush, he saw a group of masked men hijacking a carriage. It’s not right to call it a hijacking. They killed everyone on sight. Fortunately, The old man was thin and hid in the bushes with a pile of firewood on his back, so he escaped the disaster.
The man fell ill after returning home, and it was not until the day they found him that he could bear to go to the ground.
When I saw that it was someone from the Yamen, I was so frightened that I peed my pants, and without even asking, I trembled and confessed everything.
But according to what the old man recalled, the clothes of the masked men were not like those of the Han people.
Gongzi Yan did not dare to delay at all and he mounted his horse with Lu Silin and galloped back to the capital.
Let the people behind take the old man back to the City Patrol Division first.
What was complicated in his mind was that this matter involved the people of Beiyuan. Those who pulled out the carrots and made mud would definitely involve the two masters of Beiyuan. Should he report it to the Emperor of Zhou? But if it was reported to the Emperor of Zhou, how could he Given Beiyuan's ambiguous attitude, this matter will probably be left unattended, and the person who sent the news will be left in a state of disgrace.
He is in charge of the entire Wang family's army, and it is not appropriate to have anything to do with the court.
So he turned his attention to Lu Silin.
Lu Silin was originally focused on riding a horse, but with the intuition of a martial arts practitioner, he suddenly felt a line of sight beside him. He stiffened and almost stopped holding the reins. "Xu~"
The horses were pacing back and forth and then stopped.
Lu Silin said: "Didn't you say that it's best for the two of us to avoid suspicion, and you came out with me to investigate the case with great fanfare?"
With the calculation in Gongzi Yan's eyes, he took out the folding fan from his waist and said, "Silin, you and I have known each other for more than ten years, what can I ask you to do?"
The alarm bell rang loudly in Lu Silin's mind: "What do you want to do!"
"Go and tell Zheng Wei about this in another way, and let him take the credit."
Lu Silin chewed on these words several times before replying: "You want someone to take the blame, so why don't you come forward in person? You have to let me be the bad guy."
"I just need to let those who are behind the scenes to spread rumors know that behind Xie Fengyue are not only the Xie family, but also me. By then, even if that old fox, Mr. Xie, is cornered by the rumors, he will come out to clarify Xie Fengyue When she is just a legitimate daughter, she will not be tricked."
With a smile in his eyes, he continued: "As for this, you can't take it without credit, I don't have to, so why not give it to Zheng Wei? Anyway, didn't the spies find out that he met the Marquis of Xinyang in private last month? "
Lu Silin narrowed his eyes: "You want to use the dog owner's hand to beat the dog, tsk tsk, tsk, tsk, yizhi, you are getting worse and worse."
The two separated before entering the city.
Lu Silin was worried about how he should find an opportunity to inadvertently reveal the news to Zheng Weishi.
At Zhongchengkou, he met Zheng Wei who was leaving the city to chase the royal funeral team.
Zheng Wei saw Lu Silin's head held high and knew that he must have gotten some news.
After pretending to be a snake, he began to inquire tactfully: "Master Lu, have you gotten any useful information outside these days?"
Wen Shuning looked at Lu Lin who was deceiving him. Seeing that his face was full of calculations, he took advantage of the situation and told everything he had learned outside, even the few chickens in the old man's home.
He looked sincere, "Since I have made the matter clear to Mr. Zheng, why don't you go and report to His Majesty first? I will now go back to the city to see the old man's current condition."
Zheng Wei was still thinking about how to get this credit, so as not to let his superiors think that he had done nothing. As a result, when he fell asleep, Lu Silin handed him a pillow: "This person was found by Mr. Lu, and he must also trust Mr. Lu. I I will report back to your majesty now. The people of Beiyuan are so brave, daring to commit such a catastrophic disaster in our city of Shengjing. Mr. Lu has been tired from the past few days and needs more rest."
After saying that, he was ready to part ways with Wen Shuning.
Lu Silin said softly: "Mr. Zheng, don't say that. Lu is just doing something in the past few days. These matters were investigated by Young Master Yan."
Zheng Wei's footsteps turned around and came back. He said with a hint of gossip: "Isn't this Young Master Yan never interested in the affairs of the court? Why did he get involved in this case this time?"
"Hey~ It's just that he was trapped by love. That man couldn't get what he asked for from the Xie family girl, so he could only help silently." Lu Silin showed no mercy in tricking his friends, and immediately established the image of Gongzi Yan.
Zheng Wei disagreed. From the time the Wang family girl's case appeared until now, it had already caused a stir in the city and everyone knew about it. At first, he was still waiting for Mr. Xie to take action. However, after waiting for so many days, no one from the Xie family in Beijing came forward. Clarification for Xie Fengyue.
Now it remains to be verified whether this Xie girl is real or fake.
Then how could Yan, the young master of the Langya clan, be in love with this unidentified young lady?
