Keyboard Immortal Chapter 1117: A life-and-death event
Originally, Zuan also considered giving Han Fengqiu a witness to Sang Hong, but when he came to the grave of Shen Zhou's wife and children, and thought of the lives of dozens of innocent people in the village, he decisively gave up the idea.
I am not qualified to forgive anyone on their behalf, all I can do is send people down and let them decide for themselves.
As for dealing with King Qi, one more Han Fengqiu and one less Han Fengqiu doesn't have much impact.
After the worship, I returned to the embassy and found that the Yulin Langs went in and out and arrested a lot of people.
Sang Hong was also busy, interrogating prisoners and checking account statistics.
I finally found an opportunity to talk to him: "Uncle, is there something wrong with the account book?"
"Some of the content is not correct. Obviously, King Qi's forces have done the aftermath work during this period of time, but as long as you check carefully, these cover-ups are easy to distinguish," Sang Hong said with a smile on his face, "this time Qi I am afraid that the king is doomed, by the way, I heard that there was a big battle in a courtyard in the city, and a lot of dead soldiers died in it."
Zuan knew what he was implying, so he nodded and replied, "Some people are always responsible for those innocent villagers."
Sang Hong stops when he clicks: "I will entrust the people in the yamen. Since they are dead men, most of them are vendettas in the rivers and lakes, and they will close the case soon."
Zu An felt warm, knowing that he was taking care of himself: "Thank you, Uncle."
"This matter has nothing to do with you, thank me for what." Sang Hong showed an old fox smile.
The two then discussed some specific details about King Qi's case, and then Sang Hong continued to interrogate and investigate those involved, while Zaan came to Pei's mansion during his free time.
He is already familiar with the guards and terrain of the Pei Mansion.
It was easy to come to Pei Mianman's small courtyard.
When I entered the door, I bumped into Red Date, squeezed her baby-fat cheek, and handed her the snacks she brought.
In the past, every time she saw snacks, her eyes lit up, and the uncle shouted sweetly, but this time she snorted and turned around to continue doing her own business, as if she didn't look at it at all to him.
Zuan was puzzled and came upstairs, and saw a graceful figure sitting by the window playing the piano, wearing a bright red dress that made him look more and more charming.
She has a straight back, and her sitting posture is very demure and dignified, but unlike other ladies, it seems that to reduce the burden on her body, she supports her heavy **** on the table.
The arc pressed by the table is so thrilling that people can't take their eyes off the first time.
Zuan didn't disturb her, and after listening to the song quietly, she exclaimed:
"A beautiful piano makes people more beautiful."
"Oh, my grandfather probably used these sweet words to deceive other girls on weekdays." Pei Mianman obviously knew that he was coming, and his fingers gently stroked the strings without even turning come.
As soon as he heard her tone, Zuan knew it, squeezed to her side, sat down, and said with a smile, "Why, you're still jealous."
It's no wonder that Hongzao didn't give him a good face just now. After being busy these two days, I almost forgot that Tang Tian'er was holding her arm and was bumped into by her.
"How dare I, there are so many confidantes around you, I'll be jealous of each of them and won't be sour." Pei Mianman still didn't look at him, and seemed to be concentrating on playing with the strings.
Zuan said: "I was really investigating the case last time. It was only through Miss Tang that I found out that the owner behind Jasper Square was the Pegasus Chamber of Commerce. The more the results of King Yan were checked later, the more complicated the matter became. All this was planned by King Qi.β
At first, when she heard Tang Tianer, Pei Mianman snorted softly, but when she heard the back, her attention was quickly attracted. After understanding the whole process, she opened her mouth even more. The boss, how can I still remember being jealous: "I didn't expect that King Yan and the Demon Sect had colluded, and King Qi was too sophisticated to play all of us."
Zuan sighed: "I'm more worried about you now, the new spokesperson that King Qi has chosen in Yunzhong County is your father, but the emperor is determined to get rid of King Qi, and this time The imperial mission has found enough evidence that King Qi's good days are not long, and your father will be implicated by then."
Pei Mianman snorted: "He likes to be aggressive, so let him go."
Zuan advised: "He is your father after all, and if he is punished, you will definitely be implicated."
"He's just my father in name only. How has he treated me like his own daughter all these years? And how did he treat my mother back then." resentment.
Zuan naturally knew what kind of treatment Pei Mianman received in the early years, that is, after the appearance became more and more outstanding, the Pei family treated her a little bit in order to marry her in the future.
But it only gave her a sick maid who no one wanted, and also allocated the most remote and dilapidated courtyard in the mansion to him, not to mention the daughter of the city lord's mansion, she is the young lady of an ordinary family, and the treatment is far more than this.
"Of course I'm not worried about his life or death, mainly because I'm worried that you will be affected by Chiyu." Zaan took her hand.
Feeling his concern, Pei Mianman's jealousy disappeared long ago, and he snuggled into his arms naturally: "Listen to what you just said, the other spokesperson chosen by King Qi is Yu Xuansu. My stepmother's father, that woman's temperament I know best, with this relationship, even if my father wants to quit, he can't do it."
"I know you're doing it for my own good, but if you tell him, it will put you in danger. After all, the Yu family's father and daughter, as well as King Qi's side, have taken precautions in advance, which may be detrimental to you. ."
Zuan laughed: "It is said that girls are outgoing, and it is true. My Damanman really values ββme as a lover more in his heart."
"You are such a bastard!" Pei Mianman bit his shoulder fiercely in anger.
Hearing the sound of laughter upstairs, the red jujube downstairs covered her ears and muttered: "Miss is really a spineless person, so I made up with my uncle so soon."
She turned her eyes to the pastry food box that Zaan brought to the side, and couldn't help swallowing: "It's not my fault, even the young lady has forgiven the uncle, what can I do as a maid?"
After talking to himself like this, he seemed to have put down his psychological burden, and soon opened the food box and ate.
"Well, Mr. Zhenxiang is the best!"
Let's say that after Zuan and Pei Mianman had been together for a long time, they still ran to see Pei Shao.
Although Pei Mianman didn't say it, Zuan knew that she also had a longing for family affection in her heart.
Even if it can't stop Pei Shao's ambition, at least he should delay the time when he gets on King Qi's chariot.
"Lord Zu, what kind of wind brought you here." When he saw him, Pei Shao was a little surprised. The key point was that the other party didn't seem to go through the main entrance, and he didn't notice in advance. It was a sudden visit. Serve tea."
"No, I have something to say to the City Lord alone," Zaun stopped.
"I don't know what Master Zu has taught me?" Pei Shao naturally heard that he didn't want outsiders to be present, so he couldn't help being secretly shocked, thinking that this guy wouldn't come to assassinate me.
He has also heard a lot of rumors about the other side these days, and fighting alone, he has no confidence that he can beat the other side.
"The City Lord should know that many people were arrested today." Zaun asked straight to the point.
"I did hear it, but it's a pity that Sang-sama keeps everything secret. I don't know what crimes these officials and businessmen have committed." Pei Shao replied.
"I don't know if the city lord is really or fake." Zaun said with a half-smile.
Pei Shao's face changed: "What does Mr. Zu mean!"
Zuan smiled: "I heard that Lord City Lord is planning to marry King Qi recently?"
Pei Shao sneered and said, "Master Zu is joking. How dare we climb up the ranks of the Prince of Qi."
Seeing that he is still sloppy at this point, Zaan sneered secretly: "The city lord is a smart person, and you should guess what it means for those people to be arrested. With the status and background of the Pei family, you can completely wait and see how things change. , and then make a decision when the situation is clear. It is too early to be bound to some people, and then a big change will happen, and I can't do it even if I want to make it clear."
Pei Shao's expression changed. In fact, he was muttering in his heart when he heard that those who were arrested were all related to King Qi. Now that he heard this, he immediately thought of all possible consequences.
He asked in a deep voice, "Why did Master Zu tell me this, is he acting as a lobbyist?"
Zuan smiled: "The city lord thinks too much of himself. The emperor is in charge of all kinds of opportunities, and I am afraid he can't take care of the city lord."
Pei Shao's face was ugly, but he knew that the other party was telling the truth.
At this time, Zuan sighed: "The main reason is that Miss Pei helped me a lot when I was in Mingyue City, and I just gave her a favor. The city owner is a smart person, so he can do it for himself."
Without waiting for the other party's retention, he quickly disappeared out of the window.
Pei Shao hurriedly called to the servants: "Go and call the madam to come over, and by the way, notify the father-in-law, saying that there is an urgent matter to discuss."
But as soon as the servant was ordered to leave, Pei Shao stopped him: "Forget it, don't call."
The man looked at him with a bewildered expression.
Pei Shao pondered for a long time, and ordered: "Let the people in the house suspend the purchase of the dowry until I will notify you next time."
In the next few days, Zaan has been following the movements of the Pei Mansion. He learned that Pei Shao had postponed the purchase of the dowry. He seemed to have had a big quarrel with his wife. He was relieved, knowing that his words had an effect. .
Pei Mianman learned that he didn't have to marry the prince of Qi for the time being, a big stone fell in his heart, and he was even more tender and sweet to Zu An, which made him enjoy the tenderness to the fullest.
It's just that the red dates are so hard that I can't sleep every day, and I have big dark circles under my eyes every day.
After a few days of fairy-like days, Biejia Xu Yu suddenly notified all high-level figures in Yunzhong County to the county governor's house, saying that there was a major matter of life and death in Yunzhong County to discuss.
Zuan and Sang Hong were confused and had no idea what happened through various means, but the other party said it solemnly, and they had to be invited to go.
