Chapter 254 Unlucky feelings, musk bracelet (2)
"What, you haven't woken up yet?"

Zui Wen immediately came back to his senses, bowed his head and said, "No...servant..."

Qiu Mingyue had already walked out, "Come on, accompany me to my grandmother's place."

"Yes, ma'am."

Zuiwen was puzzled, but he was smart enough not to ask any questions.

The master and servant came to Shou'an Courtyard, and the old lady was there.The old man sat below, and when he saw her coming, he called out.

"Moon."

Qiu Mingyue asked Zuiwen to wait for her outside the door, and walked over to bless her.

"Grandfather, grandmother, father."

The old man waved his hand, "Sit down."

"Yes." Qiu Mingyue sat down, "What did grandfather and father find out?"

The elder pondered for a while, and said: "Then Pei Sizhao is indeed from Rongde County, Yangzhou. He has no father and no mother. He is an orphan. He has participated in the scientific examination in 3000. Unfortunately, he failed."

"Then what about the savior he mentioned? Is there such a thing?"

The old man said: "There is no way to know this. After all, there is no one to testify, not to mention that at that time he failed the exam and went back, he was indeed penniless, and it is not impossible to meet noble people to save him."

Qiu Mingyue nodded, "Why did Dad ask me to come?"

"He's not a criminal now, so I can't torture him privately. But that Pei Sizhao reads the books of sages anyway, and he's not a villain at all. This time, he was only fascinated by evil people for a while. I told him that your grandfather used to be a criminal." The magistrate of Yangzhou, he actually said that he had been favored by your grandfather in the past. He also faintly revealed that he seemed to know the truth about your grandfather being wronged back then."

"Father wants to know the person who framed Grandpa from him?" Qiu Mingyue's expression was very indifferent, and she was not at all moved by this matter.

The old man glanced at her with shrewd old eyes, and said, "What do you think?"

Qiu Mingyue lowered her head, "Grandfather's heart is like a mirror, Mingyue dare not speak nonsense."

A smile flickered across the old man's eyes, "Tell me, this matter is related to your grandfather. If you can really find out what happened back then, there will be more hope for your grandfather to resume his original job."

Qiu Mingyue's eyes flickered, and she naturally heard the meaning behind the old man's words.If grandpa returns to his original position, Shen's status will also increase.That is to say...

She looked up, still calm.

"Grandpa was a local parental official back then. He was selfless and helpful all his life. It is common to be kind to others. I just don't know if grandfather and father have investigated. What kindness is grandpa to him?" Her eyes were indifferent but sharp, "In just one night, maybe Dad just missed the name Pei Siqi, not the person."

The old man had sharp eyes, "You mean..."

Qiu Mingyue pursed her lips, "Is there a way for Dad to call up the portraits of the students who took part in the scientific examinations in recent years? I suspect that maybe this Pei Siki is not that Pei Siki."

The old man took the teacup and lifted the lid.

"Why do you have such doubts?"

Qiu Mingyue chuckled and said, "Has my grandfather ever seen a thief write the words 'I am a thief' on his face? Since he dared to say those words openly in public and spread them out, it is of course my fault." His reputation is damaged, but he will not get any benefits. If I was really forced to die yesterday, then he will also be affected. No matter who he is instigated and instigated by, no matter what the person behind him gives him There are so many benefits, it is nothing more than writing about gold, silver and treasures. If he is allowed to be an official, once this happens, he will never be able to stand up in his life. So, does grandfather think he dares to use his real name?"

She paused, and then said: "Besides, since the person behind the matter has arranged this matter so carefully, they will definitely consider it in all aspects. Even if they achieve their goal, grandfather and father will also investigate. So, no matter what , they dare not take risks."

The old man took a deep look at her and said something suddenly.

"It's a pity that you are a daughter, otherwise..."

Otherwise, the old man didn't say anything, and Qiu Mingyue also vaguely guessed in his heart.It's nothing more than saying that she is comparable to a man and can enter the court.

She smiled, she didn't have such big ambitions.

"Dad just said that he is not a treacherous and evil person, right?" Qiu Mingyue was smiling, but there was no smile in her eyes.

"To use an analogy, he may have acted out of helplessness, or he was persecuted by others. But if he has no repentance until now, I think this kind of person is no different from a traitor."

The elder choked, sighed and said: "The bright moon is transparent, but I am superficial." There was a tinge of bitterness at the corner of his mouth.

"Father, don't underestimate yourself." Qiu Mingyue smiled, "Father can achieve the status he is today by himself, he must have real talent and learning. What I said just now is just my daughter's random guess, so it can't be true."

But the old man said: "If random conjectures can be analyzed so clearly, then if you carefully examine them, I'm afraid there will be no more unjust cases in the world."

Qiu Mingyue's heart skipped a beat, the old man had something to say.

Women in this era are not allowed to be involved in politics. Although Cai Cai himself was only discussing the facts, strictly speaking, he was indeed involved in official affairs.Are the old man's words a warning or a reminder to himself?

"Shoot the top bird. The person behind it really calculated accurately and proposed a scapegoat to atone for the crime. At that time, not only will Mingyue be destroyed, but he will also be at large. Last time it was Mingrui, this time it is Mingyue." The old man squinted his eyes, There was a ray of coldness in his eyes.

"They acted too much, really think that my Qiu family can't be bullied?"

The old man's tone was calm and forceful. Although his voice was not loud, it had a sense of majesty, which made people feel intimidated.

Qiu Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

being targeted.The old man was hinting to himself that he should hide his edge and not be impatient.

The old matriarch who had been silent all this time said, "Then what should we do about this matter? Don't spread it out in a big way, otherwise it will hurt Mingyue's reputation after all. But if it is resolved in private, then Pei Sizhao seems to be quite Proud. What if he doesn’t say anything?”

Qiu Mingyue pursed her lips and smiled, "I have an idea, I don't know if it's feasible."

The old man raised his eyebrows and motioned for her to say.

Qiu Mingyue said: "I think that Pei Sizhao may not know the true identity of the person behind it, even if he tells it, we probably have to work hard. After all, in this capital, there are not many people who dare to openly oppose the Qiu family. So, we can live until we die.”

"Oh?" The old man seemed to understand something, and his eyes were slightly deep.

"Putting it to death and rebirth?" The old lady was a little confused, "How to put it to death?"

The old master said in a deep voice: "Mingyue means that if you want to get caught, you will beat the dog behind closed doors."

The old lady's eyes moved, and she knew it in her heart.
