Bring your son to chase after your wife, please go home

Chapter 976 The Trip to Nanyu and the Prince’s Banquet (1)
The rain outside the house was getting heavier and heavier, and it seemed that it had no intention of stopping. Baili Changge sat quietly in front of the window, staring at the uninterrupted raindrops on the eaves in a daze.

"Sir..." Wei Yu called her softly, "I still have a question."

"Say." Baili Changge turned his head slightly to look at him, the corners of his lips twitched, Xu Yan's face was already handsome, but Wei Yu was a little at a loss when she smiled like this, he scratched his head in embarrassment, Quickly turned his attention to the case, "Why didn't the No. [-] Jianghuai monster flee to other places but to Chuzhou? Smart people know that Chuzhou is a place where the royal family has placed a lot of eyeliners. Besides, there are merchants who are most concerned about this place." The holy flame of the altar, the forces of all parties are mixed, but he still insists on fleeing to Chuzhou, isn't this tantamount to throwing himself into a trap?"

Hearing this, Baili Changge squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said to Wei Yu, "I see."

Wei Yu was shocked, "What do you know, Mister?"

Baili Changge ordered him to find a pen and paper, and write down the known clues on the paper.

She said: "First, the No. [-] Jianghuai monster claimed to have a backer in Beijing, and clearly stated that his sister is the wife of the Hou Men family."

"Secondly, as a felon of the imperial court, he fled desperately to Chuzhou, a place full of fish and dragons. It can only explain one thing, that is, his home was originally in Chuzhou."

When Wei Yu heard this, he said happily, "If Mr.'s calculation is correct, then I may already know who this person is."

"Who?" Baili Changge raised an eyebrow and asked him.

"You Fang." Wei Yu affirmed: "We went to his home when we investigated the Second Master's case. You Fang's sister is now the Second Master's wife, You Shi."

"Smart!" Baili Changge gave him an appreciative look, and then sighed slightly: "You can guess the identity of the No. [-] monster in Jianghuai, but I'm afraid you can't guess who and what is behind the whole thing. Purpose."

Wei Yu frowned and thought about it, then shook his head, "I really can't guess this, please tell me, sir."

"The person who manipulates all this is Ye Tianyu, the current sage." Baili Changge said each word very slowly.

Wei Yu was stunned as if struck by lightning. After a long time, he stammered and said, "Sir, are you joking? How could the emperor personally get involved in this matter?"

"I'll give you a good analysis." After Baili Changge finished speaking, he picked up the brush and filled it with ink on the rice paper to continue writing.

"First of all, let me ask you, is the case of Jianghuai No. [-] blame a serious case?"

"Of course." Wei Yu nodded again and again, "Yu Fang robbed the merchant ships on the canal, and not once or twice. If such a person is caught, ten deaths are not enough."

Baili Changge bent his lips, "So do you think such a felon can be executed casually without a trial?"

"That's right." Wei Yu suddenly realized, "This case hasn't been tried yet, how could the government think of executing Yu Fang directly, and there is no official document from the Ministry of Punishment, so the Chuzhou government dare not execute it privately, right?"

"That's right." Baili Changge nodded, "Only when the official document of the Ministry of Punishment came down, the Chuzhou government dared to use this method to let You Fang die in full view. But you also said just now that the case is not During the trial, why did the Ministry of Criminal Justice directly issue the verdict?"

"Your Majesty..." Wei Yu was taken aback, "Could it be that this matter was really ordered by the Emperor?"

"King An was demoted to be a commoner, King Cheng had gone to Tongzhou a long time ago, King Huai has disappeared so far, King Jin led his troops to the north, and now Ye Tianyu is the only person in the capital city who can instruct Cui Shijian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, so this The thing is that he is secretly manipulating."
