After I was reborn, I became Mrs. Chief Assistant

Chapter 190 Mei Qing
Zheng Suqing sent someone to look for Pei's former maid, but there was no news yet, but at this moment a major event happened in the court.

General Gu Chengrui, who temporarily lived in Huaquanzhi, was assassinated in the middle of the night.

The previous discussion about the replacement of General Zhenyuan was lost because of the emperor's anger.But when such a thing happened at this time, it was obvious that the people behind the scenes did not want to see that after the emperor changed his mind, Gu Chengrui could have the opportunity to return to the border and continue to serve, so they killed him.

However, "Gu Chengrui" was highly skilled in martial arts, so naturally he was not injured. Not only that, he also captured the assassin alive. That night, the assassin was sent to Dali Temple, and the case was presided over by Dali Temple Qing Jiang Haiping.

The method of Dali Temple, even in Daye, is appalling.

But within three to five days, the assassin couldn't stand it anymore, so he honestly recruited, claiming to be the dead servant of the Mei family, and this assassination of General Gu was also instigated by the head of the Mei family.

What kind of family is the Mei family?That is the serious in-law of the Lu family.

Unlike Qiu Renfeng, who was only the wife and brother of the third son of the Zheng family, Mei Qing, the current son of the Mei family, married the eldest daughter of the Lu family.

Logically speaking, a Mei family that only had some prestige in Daye could not be compared to a noble daughter from a top family in Daye. However, before the Mei family washed their hands in the golden basin, what they did was licking blood, reselling arms, and smuggling Salt and iron, stick to everything.Therefore, although it is a new place where the family is powerful, the family has accumulated a lot of wealth, and then the Mei family shifted their focus to the officialdom in time, first donating officials to the children of the family, and then after some operations, the Mei family realized This marked the change of status from local aristocrats to Daye upstarts.

If it wasn't for the people in power of the Mei family who could clearly judge the current situation, Mei Qing might not be qualified to be the son-in-law of the Lu family.

It's just that the wise head of the Mei family had already turned into a handful of loess with the passage of time, and now the head of the Mei family is Mei Qing's father, Mei Gu.

Gu Chengrui was assassinated, such a big event was already known by the various forces who followed Gu Chengrui when the incident happened.The Mei family is naturally among them.

Later, when the assassin was taken into custody in the Dali Temple, everyone naturally cheered up and waited for the result of the final interrogation.

When they got the result that the Mei family was the mastermind behind the scenes, no matter what others did, the Mei family had already exploded inside.

No one knows better than them that they have never done this!
Nowadays, who doesn't know that the matter of General Zhenyuan is a thorn in the emperor's heart, whoever touches it will be unlucky?Didn't you see that even the emperor's favorite Cifu was alienated by the emperor because of this matter?Not to mention their Mei family, because they are related to the Lu family by marriage, they have always behaved with their tails between their legs in this capital, and they dare not plan such a big thing even if they have the guts of a bear!

"There is also dead waiter. It is the emperor's taboo to raise a dead waiter. Father, who is so cruel that he wants to put our Mei family to death!" Mei Qing stood beside the bronze crane lampstand, the dim light reflected his eyebrows and eyes, Show his weakness clearly in front of everyone.

Few people know that Mei Qing from the Mei family is actually a medicine jar, which has been raised in the pile of herbs since childhood.

Mei Gu looked at his pale face and said worryingly: "You don't need to worry about these things, we will support you when the sky falls, and it's enough for you to cultivate yourself."

After finishing speaking, he said again: "My Mei family has always been clean and upright, and besides, I have never been involved in military affairs. I think the emperor will definitely see the details and return us justice. Yuan'er, you should write a letter immediately and report to Master Lu. To clarify the situation, please ask him to help us."

……

There is a lake in the backyard of the Xie Mansion. The lake is not full of Handan like the Zheng Mansion and Xiao Mansion. There are only a few lotus leaves scattered here and there. Palm-sized lotus flowers bloom in the center of the lotus leaves. They are light pink, light yellow, vermilion, and graceful , don't have a rhyme.

A small pavilion was built by the lake, and the pavilion was surrounded by light gauze, not for the sake of elegance, but because green bamboos grow thickly next to the path by the lake, and there are often mosquitoes at night, so the light gauze was set up as a net to keep out the mosquitoes.

In the past, Xie Jie was entangled with trifles, so he didn't have much time to come to this lake to enjoy the flowers and sit around.But now it was different, the court was full of blood and blood, he was too lazy to get involved, and just took advantage of the injuries on his body to recuperate at home.

It's just that some people were not so polite, even he was recuperating at home, and he brought a chessboard to the house.

Before a game of chess was finished, Zheng Jianjun asked, "Master Xie, is it a wrong move now?"

Xie Jie looked at the chessboard: "Shi Bo and I are very different, how can I make a wrong move?"

Zheng Jianjun said with a smile: "You planted the Mei family without proof. Wouldn't it be easy for the Mei family to get away? This is not in line with Master Xie's previous style of being exhaustive."

"Oh? The crimes of the Mei family are clearly their own crimes. How can you say that I planted the blame? Mr. Zheng's words are probably groundless." Xie Jie raised his eyebrows and dropped his head.

Zheng Jianjun picked out his sunspots: "You and I are considered grasshoppers on the same rope now, so you don't have to hide it from me, right?"

Xie Jie sighed, he really didn't know why he wanted to play chess with a stinky chess basket like Zheng Jianjun.He didn't want to fight, and directly fell Heizi into the trap that Zheng Jianjun had already prepared, and said after falling, "Shi Bo guessed right, it was indeed my handwriting."

But this time, what matters is not whether the Mei family has done such a thing, but whether the emperor believes in them, or in other words, whether or not the Lu family believes in them.

"Instead of worrying that the Mei family will get away easily, Shi Bo thinks about whether the emperor is willing to let the Mei family get away." He smiled with his lips curled up, and there was a stream of light pouring out of the corners of his eyes, which made people unable to look away.

Zheng Jianjun also understood what he meant, and sighed: "Someone in the court said that you are a thousand-year-old fox who has become a spirit, and this is indeed true."

He thought that Xie Jie would fabricate evidence that the Mei family raised Deadpool, but he didn't expect that this person's thoughts were not on the Mei family at all.From beginning to end, he counted the emperor in it.

No wonder he can sit firmly in a high position, with such a mind, who can beat him?

Zheng Jianjun won the chess game and got the answer he wanted. He was about to get up and leave, but Xie Jie persuaded him to stay: "Uncle Shi took some time out of his busy schedule to come here, why don't you sit down for a while?"

Zheng Jianjun raised his eyes to look at the sky, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: The sun didn't come out from the west, why did Xie Jie suddenly look like a different person?
You know, Xie Jie has never had a guest. Anyway, Zheng Jianjun visited him a few times, and when he was about to leave, Xie Jie always looked like he wished him to leave early.

When Yun Zhuo was taken outside the small pavilion by Wen Lu, he heard Xie Jie's voice.
