Qing Fu Jin

Chapter 147 Conditions
"Since you came here to save your family, why did you disguise yourself and infiltrate the Fucha mansion? Isn't this an accident?"

Bo Zhe still has doubts.

At this moment, Xu Zhao made a gesture that didn't fit the scene. He touched his nose with his finger. Although this gesture expressed helplessness, it seemed a little frivolous in the current atmosphere.

But inexplicably, both Bo Zhe and Ling Bo felt strangely relieved because of this action, as if they sensed that Xu Zhao's viciousness and violence came more from the mastermind behind the arrest of his little one, and that his body did not affect them as husband and wife. Not much hostility.

"Master Baylor is really a noble person who forgets things too much. I just said that Xu is a nobody with no background and no support." Xu Zhao's tone concealed a hint of sarcasm.

Bo Zhe frowned slightly: "It doesn't seem to have anything to do with my question."

Xu Zhao shook his head: "Of course it does. Even if I knew the identity of the mastermind who captured my family, I would have no way to rescue my family. Because I don't have any access to information, and I don't know that my family was arrested. I don't know where the prison is, and I don't know how many people are guarding it. I don't even know if this is a bitter trick set up by the mastermind behind the scenes, trying to lure the snake out of the hole. So for me, the most direct way is to catch the thief first. Capture the king."

Bo Zhe said movedly: "You mean that you entered Fucha's house just to attack that mastermind behind the scenes? You want to hold him hostage in exchange for your family?"

"Yes." Xu Zhao said bitterly, "This is the only way I can think of. I spent a whole month researching ways to retreat and countermeasures. Unfortunately, in the end, all my previous efforts were wasted because of a little accident. "

Bo Zhe's face darkened: "All previous efforts are in vain? Hmph, didn't you arrest my wife?"

He glanced at Ling Bo.

Apart from not daring to move easily now, Ling Bo was no longer nervous. She could see that Xu Zhao said so much, all for the sake of setting the stage. Soon, they would talk about the key points.

She believed that with Bo Zhe's intelligence and affection for her, he would protect her thoroughly and save her from Xu Zhao.She has always been full of confidence.

"That's right. Although it was an accident, I finally caught a worthy person." Xu Zhao also glanced at Ling Bo, and said, "Shao Fujin, I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to target you, but it's a pity that the fire at the city gate caused Chi Yu, you But it served as a shield for the mastermind behind the scenes."

Ling Bo showed a wry smile.

Basically, the ins and outs of this kidnapping case have been explained clearly.

Bo Zhe took a deep breath and said, "Having said so much, it's time for you to tell your real purpose. What conditions are you going to ask before you release my wife?"

"Master Baylor is a smart man, could he not have thought of my conditions?"

Bo Zhe snorted coldly and said, "Say it."

"First, you must let me see my family and ensure their safety; second, I must meet the emperor. As long as these two conditions are met, I will let your wife go, and I will never let her lose A cold hair."

Bo Zhe frowned: "I can understand that you want to see your family. Why do you want to meet the emperor?"

Xu Zhao sneered and said: "It is nothing more than the Sichuan corruption case and my account books that have caused me to be in this situation. It is only expedient to save my family. If the Sichuan corruption case is not resolved, our crisis will not be resolved. I Knowing that Prince Yong is fully responsible for the investigation of this corruption case, but the status of the mastermind behind the scenes is not inferior to him, Prince Yong may not be able to guarantee the safety of me and my family. In this world, apart from the authority of the emperor, we No one can believe it.

"So I have to meet the emperor and submit the account book. When the time comes, I, Xu Zhao, will be charged with whatever crimes I deserve. It's all my own fault. No one else is to blame. However, I will never be more responsible for the crimes that should be borne by others. Take half of it. In this world, there is absolutely no reason to get away with doing bad things."

Bo Zhe nodded, he already understood Xu Zhao's meaning.

He himself was threatened to be silenced, and now his family is also in danger. Even if he uses Lingbo to exchange for the safety of his family this time, as long as the corruption case is not revealed, he and his The family will continue to face the pressure from the mastermind behind the scenes.Instead of living in fear, it is better to reveal the truth to the world, at worst it will be a dead end.When the corruption case ends, so does the bad luck.

"Since your sneaking into Fucha's house was carefully planned, you must be very clear about the identity of the mysterious mastermind behind the scenes. Who is he?"

Xu Zhao narrowed his eyes: "Don't Lord Baylor know?"

Bo Zhe raised his eyebrows: "You guessed right, I do know part of the inside story of the corruption case, that's because I have been investigating the case with Prince Yong. However, until now, there is no conclusive evidence that can be reported to We show where the source of the corruption case is."

Xu Zhao nodded: "Up to now, there is nothing to hide."

Since he wanted Bo Zhe to save his family, he couldn't avoid answering this question.

Holding the sword in his right hand on Ling Bo's neck, Xu Zhao raised his free left hand, curled up his middle finger, ring finger, and little finger, opened his mouth, and showed his thumb and index finger.

Bozhe's pupils shrank.

Xu Zhao has already withdrawn his hand.

Ling Bo also noticed this gesture.

Eight!
It turned out to be that one.

Compared with Bo Zhe's understanding and Xu Zhao's relief, what she thinks may not be as comprehensive as theirs, but she has a sense of the absurdity of historical time and space.

In the history of the Kangxi Dynasty, there were indeed major corruption and bribery cases.But in Ling Bo's memory, these major cases that affected a large number of people and caused official purges and exchanges of blood did not happen in the 51st year of Kangxi.

If this Sichuan corruption case has already involved this aspect, obviously it cannot be taken lightly.

At this moment of fierce partisan struggle, even a small stain can become a target for attack, let alone such a major and vicious incident.

If the truth is revealed to the world, will that one still be able to compete with the fourth elder brother in the years to come?Will Lord Kangxi still allow him to grow up?After losing his fame, can he still get so much support?
Ling Bo suddenly felt that things had begun to change the direction of history.

She didn't know if it had something to do with her. From the beginning to the end, she always thought that she was a small person. Even if it was a small butterfly from different time and space, it was impossible to cause a big shock in history just by flapping its wings a few times.

"I can ask Prince Yong for instructions and try to rescue your family, but you should know that this is not an easy task, and I need some time." Bo Zhe said in a deep voice.

Xu Zhao raised two fingers: "Two days, I will only give you two days."

Bozhe frowned.

"Don't think it's harsh!" Xu Zhao spoke before he could speak, "You have Prince Jian's Mansion, Fucha Mansion, Prince Yong's Mansion, Nine Gate Admirals, and even the Imperial Guards, but I only have A person, who is stronger or weaker?"

"Okay, two days is two days, you must promise that you will not hurt her."

Xu Zhao nodded: "I promise."

In fact, these are all nonsense, since Xu Zhao wants to exchange Ling Bo for his family, of course he will not hurt Ling Bo at this time.

Of course, Bo Zhe would not allow him to take Ling Bo away again. The Hall of Rejuvenation has been requisitioned, and there are still officers and soldiers surrounding it outside. Everything that Xu Zhao and Ling Bo eats will be passed in through the officers and soldiers to ensure cleanliness and safety.

And Bo Zhe, after agreeing to Xu Zhao's conditions, needs to go to Prince Yong's mansion immediately to discuss with the fourth elder brother.

Ma Wu then stayed behind. Of course, he also sent someone back to Fu Cha's house to inform that although Ling Bo hadn't been rescued yet, at least her safety had been ensured. Let the old man Mi Sihan know earlier, and let them know sooner. rest assured.

And Bo Zhe, in addition to sending someone back to Prince Jian's mansion to notify, he galloped directly to Prince Yong's mansion.

The fourth elder brother Yinzhen was in the mansion, when he received a report from his servant, he sent Bo Zhe directly to his study.

After hearing the two conditions proposed by Xu Zhao, Yinzhen just pondered for a while, and then said: "Since he has proposed these two conditions, this matter is no longer under our full control, and we must report it to the emperor immediately."

Bozhe nodded, he also meant the same thing.

"Xu Zhao's family is really in the hands of the Eighth Master?" Yin Zhen frowned, the news was not very good.

Bo Zhe said: "I believe that Xu Zhao will not be empty-handed. If he hadn't found out the whereabouts of his family, how dare he risk his life to sneak into Fucha's house and find the mastermind behind it."

Yinzhen let out a long breath: "We can't impress Lord Ba for no reason, since Xu Zhao wants to see the emperor, we can't hide this matter."

The eight princes arrested the people without authorization and illegally imprisoned them. If Yinzhen and Bozhe wanted to please people, it would undoubtedly be very difficult to rely on their own strength.First, there is no hard evidence for this matter, and the eighth elder brother can completely deny it; secondly, if Xu Zhao's family is in the eighth elder brother's hands, he must be even more unwilling to hand it over, otherwise, wouldn't it be true that he and the Sichuan embezzlement case Relationship.

Based on Bozhe's understanding of Yinzhen, of course he can guess his deeper intentions.

Now that the Sichuan corruption case has been investigated, it is already certain that Baye is the mastermind behind the intricate surface, and the huge number of bribes and bribes is for the giant crocodile of the Baye Party.

If the fourth elder brother waited until the case was fully investigated before reporting it, given his sensitive relationship with Ba Ye, some people would inevitably suspect that he used his power to frame and exclude dissidents.And if it is through Xu Zhao's mouth that the emperor knows the various actions of the Eighth Master, not only can the emperor most directly realize the role that the Eighth Master played in this major corruption case, but also clear the Fourth Master's party. Suspected of deliberately weaving charges to weaken the Baye Party.

Now that Prince Jane's Mansion has bet on the fourth elder brother, it naturally hopes that the situation will develop in a direction that is beneficial to the fourth elder brother and harmful to the eighth elder brother.

So, after careful discussion, Bo Zhe and the fourth elder brother Yinzhen went into the palace together to meet Kangxi.
