Chen Yan stared at Qin Mubai a little annoyed: "Can you not be so frivolous and casual, can you give me a clear answer?"
"Some people in the world are weird, but they don't believe it if they are serious promises; if they are false, they must be taken seriously." Qin Mubai said, "I think you are such a person, so I deliberately treat you a little ."
"Man, don't be such a small weapon!" Chen Yan knew that she was a bit wrong, and she stared at Qin Mubai bitterly and walked back, leaning on the pillar, and said, "Now it's my turn to ask you some questions. Yes. If you answer well, I will trust you and I will naturally tell you everything you want to know. If you don’t answer well, I am a dead body today and I will never confide a word easily."
"What are you waiting for, ask!"
Chen Yan said: "Are you going to investigate the case of Zhang Tianci?"
"Naturally." Qin Mubai said, "To be honest, King Wu and I were ordered by the emperor to thoroughly investigate the Jishan case. Originally, we didn't know that things would be so complicated, let alone. The county magistrate of Jishan would suddenly die violently, leading to a series of major cases. From the very beginning, we were also very innocent and we were involved, and we were involuntarily sinking deeper and deeper. In fact, we didn’t want to pursue it. Strike or deliberately target someone, and don’t want more people to suffer as a result. What we are doing now is to minimize the crisis brought about by this case, except for the sinful villains, others Try not to get involved. Of course, this also includes ourselves. Therefore, what we are doing now is to save people, save ourselves, and try to make Chaotang society less shocked."
"Looking at what you said sincerely and logically, I will believe you for the time being." Chen Yan said, "The second question, what will you do with Zhang Tianci?"
"He must not die now." Qin Mubai said concisely, "because his death must be after all the dust settles."
"Does that mean Zhang Tianci must die?" Chen Yan nodded, "I also believe this. Actually, I may know more about the case than you. I did lie to you before. Before me and my husband He pours a lot of bitterness on me in the correspondence between him, especially when the construction of the Jishan Lake flood defense embankment started. Between me and him, there has always been nothing to talk about. He is a great love and justice. Many times, people who care about the interests and faces of others, prefer to pay and sacrifice by themselves. Therefore, he is very painful and hesitated and does not know what to do. He has said countless times that he wants to resign and return to the field and live with me, but he still I really can’t let go of the fame and official position that I have worked so hard to win for ten years. From then on, I hate officialdom and people who are officials."
"You finally told the truth." Qin Mubai smiled slightly, "The truth sounds different."
"I haven't finished the question yet." Chen Yan glanced at Qin Mubai coldly, and said, "If you keep investigating this case all the way, you will find some big people you didn't expect... For you, big people are naturally extraordinary-what will you do?"
"You mean..." Qin Mubai smiled slyly, thinking that she had already said this, why don't I cheat her?
After deliberately opening the tone and selling it off for a while, Qin Mubai said: "Do you mean someone who is'bigger' than King Wu?"
Chen Yan is calm and noncommittal: "You answer the question first."
"According to the circumstances." Qin Mubai said, "I can only answer this way. It is too fake to say that it is handled impartially or that it is promised now."
"That means, depending on who the other party is, then decide what to do, right?" Chen Yan said.
"Yes."
Chen Yan became silent and stopped talking.
After a long while, Qin Mubai said: "You are finished asking? Now can you start to tell me the truth and tell me your secret?"
Chen Yan glanced up at Qin Mubai slightly, and there was a slight hesitation and hesitation in the corner of her eye.
"I won't force you." Qin Mubai said, "In fact, if you don't say many things, it doesn't mean I don't know. It's just that I can't implement it without solid evidence, but I can boldly guess."
"Guess it." Chen Yan said lightly, "Anyway, I didn't say it from my mouth, it can't prove anything."
"This is reasonable, then I guessed it." Qin Mubai said, "In fact, Zhu Chengwen did write down a confidential account book, and he may have realized that he is in danger, so he will This account book has been sent to you in case you need it in the future. This account book records the whereabouts and uses of many imperial appropriations. Some of them must be invisible, as a metaphor for bribing certain people."
Chen Yan listened quietly and did not comment, even her expression did not change.
Qin Mubai smiled slightly to himself and continued: "Later Zhu Chengwen died, so you immediately think that he was retaliated by someone or murdered, and then you came to avenge. But you have many more. The scruples are because there are some people involved in this ledger, which makes you feel very embarrassed. He may be kind to Zhu Chengwen, or kind to you, or have inextricable connections with you two At the same time, you know that Wang Wu and I have come to Jishan for disaster relief and are investigating this case. So you really want to know how far we have found. Next, you find a way to get involved with us. "
Chen Yan remained silent and said nothing.
"Just yesterday afternoon, you saw Zhang Tianci came to Juntun, and King Wu received him and gave him a reward." Qin Mubai said, "Perhaps because of this, you think we and Zhang Tianci are the same thing. , This makes you very annoyed and anxious. First, you feel that you have been taken advantage of and deceived by me. Second, you are eager to get revenge. Third... You want to kill Zhang Tianci immediately and kill others. The purpose is to cover the account It’s recorded on the book—that person. I said, right?"
"All speculation, no evidence." Chen Yan said lightly.
"I really didn't, but it doesn't mean I couldn't find it." Qin Mubai said, "I can't help you, it doesn't mean that I can't help Zhang Tianci. You are a good person who abides by chivalry, but he It is a villain through and through. A villain is greedy for life and fear of death, so he can betray everything."
"So, I must kill him ahead of time!" Chen Yan shouted angrily.
Qin Mubai sighed and smiled softly: "You finally admitted it!"
Chen Yanliu glared at Qin Mubai with a light frown, and turned her head to remain silent.
"Actually... the person you want to cover may be the person we want to help." Qin Mubai said, "Perhaps he is also innocent, but he just received some money from others in a muddle and was then used by others. Even if you have a minor offense, you shouldn’t be affected by this serious crime. Chen Yan, you know it and you don’t know why. You think that person and Zhang Tianci are the same passer-by, the mastermind and the accomplice, and the investigation will definitely go down. No good results, so you want to get rid of the insider for him. As everyone knows, you can't help him, but hurt him-I have said so much, you should understand what I am talking about?"
At this time, Chen Yan was shocked: "You... actually know everything?"
"Guess, there is no evidence." Qin Mubai smiled slightly, "But my guess is not groundless, it is reasonable. You won't understand this, and you certainly can't imagine it. How could I guess? Out of these, right?"
"Yes... you are terrible! How could you think of so many things? Although you don't have the slightest evidence, the reality is almost indistinguishable from what you guessed!" Chen Yan looked at Qin Mubai in amazement. For the first time, there was a look of shock in her beautiful big eyes.
"This may be the reason why you look down on officials!" Qin Mubai laughed at himself, "Official people, full of horrible ideas, think about everything before and after, and think about the causes and consequences. Every time. If you do more of this kind of thing, you will develop some of the skills of an unknown prophet."
"You bullshit!" Chen Yan was still surprised, but at the same time a little confused, "What did you think of it?"
"Do you think of-Jiangxia King Li Daozong?" Qin Mubai said with a slight smile.
"Uh!..." Chen Yanwu was surprised, "Do you really know?!"
"Sure enough." Qin Mubai smiled, "In fact, we should have opened the skylight to speak up. Because whether it is King Wu or I, we always admire and respect King Jiang Xia. King Wu knows him better. He once told me that his uncle is perfect, and there is only one quirk, that is, greed for money, and pure greed for money, never greedy for money, because he wants to get wealth always very easy. So we have been It is guessed that there should be an important person behind Zhang Tianci to provide him with convenience. This important person is likely to be the current Jinzhou governor Jiangxia King Li Daozong. Zhang Tianci can easily get to know Li Daozong through the relationship of the prince, and then vote They wanted to pay him a bribe. Then, under his banner, they went outside to sell dog meat and started selling male and female prostitutes. These, King Jiang Xia must be kept in the dark. Otherwise, with his personality I would never condone a little Lord Hou to ruin his reputation so much and cause him trouble."
"Is that so?" Chen Yan said in surprise, "I always thought that King Jiang Xia was also with Zhang Tianci!"
"Did Zhu Chengwen tell you?" Qin Mubai smiled, "A small official like him, after all, doesn't know much about official affairs. Or, Zhang Tianci, Cheng Songnian, etc. Someone deceived Zhu Chengwen and made him think it was true. Chen Yan, in fact, I have a saying that is disrespectful to the dead and never said. Now I want to ask you, so please forgive me first."
"Well, you said."
"Zhu Chengwen, he was actually with Zhang Tianci and others during his lifetime, right?" Qin Mubai said, "Otherwise, he would not know so many secrets and would not be killed. I guess he It was out of helplessness or trapped by some kind of feeling that he had to join Zhang Tianci and others and became one of them. At the same time, he has his own bottom line of truth and conscience to repay his losses, so he has been struggling very much. He has nowhere to pour out his pain, so he told you all this. And the cause of his pain, I think it should be Jiang Xia Wang Li Daozong. Chen Yan, can you tell me what Zhu Chengwen has to do with Jiang Xia Wang Huh?"
Chen Yan's face turned a little pale, Yinya bit her eyes tightly to avoid Qin Mubai's eyes, and slowly nodded: "It seems that I really underestimated you... You are terrible, you can guess it. Here!"
"Go ahead! Believe me, I will keep this secret and let the dead Zhu Chengwen retain the last trace of dignity!" Qin Mubai said.
Chen Yan nodded and said, "King Jiang Xia, is my husband’s great benefactor. When he went to Beijing to rush for the exam, my husband was poor and couldn’t even live in an inn. He nestled in the streets of Lifang in Chang’an every day. Taking advantage of the light of the night light to study. By chance, he met King Jiang Xia. King Jiang Xia saw a scholar who was so poor but still working hard, so he was very touched. He immediately presented him with some money and goods and let him live in the officialdom. Zhan feels relieved to prepare for the exam. Then, Jiang Xia Wang, a caring person, also greeted the people in the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Officials, saying that he has a student who is going to participate in this year's scientific examination."
"In this way, King Jiang Xia is indeed a great favor to Zhu Chengwen." Qin Mubai said, "If we can vote for a good family and have a good background in the scientific research of my dynasty, it will be recommended by the noble minister. "Profile", in this way, the chances of entering the college and the first degree can be greatly increased. And since then, even if he is the protégé of King Jiang Xia, wherever he goes, he is still a golden sign."
"Yes." Chen Yan said, "but my husband didn't know anything about it, and he dumbly submitted the public paper to the Ministry of Rites (meaning taking the exam as a civilian, and didn't use King Jiang Xia's students Only after he was enrolled did he hear the officials of the Ministry of Justice talk about the recommendation and support of Wang Jiang Xia, and he regretted it, and since then he is grateful to Wang Jiang Xia that Dade will rebirth parents."
"It is indeed a pity." Qin Mubai said, "If he enters the official position by investing in the "professional" method, he will have a high starting point in his official career, and he may even be a poor official. As an official in Beijing, he has a bright future. Just because he has voted for the official papers of the Ministry of Rites, he is just an ordinary Jinshi, and it is quite good to be able to be a prefect of the Seventh-Rank. Affairs, but there is still authority there. But with a simple effort, he completely changed the fate of Zhu Chengwen's life. It is no wonder that Zhu Chengwen is grateful to him."
"In fact, before meeting King Jiang Xia, my husband treated him like a **** in his heart." Chen Yan said, "I have heard him mention King Jiang Xia more than once, and I heard about his great achievements in the past. Saying he is a young hero, how he loves the people like a son, and his morality is noble. He is a perfect character. If he can see him once in his lifetime, he will no longer be in vain in this life. Unexpectedly, his party in Changan would actually meet Jiang Xia Wang, I also received his great favor...It’s no wonder that my husband would suffer so much pain and struggle after encountering those things in Jishan."
Qin Mubai nodded: "So that's it, I understand. It seems that the account book really exists, and it must have recorded a part of the whereabouts of the embankment repair funds, which was probably given to King Jiang Xia. Seeing King Jiang Xia accepting bribes and greed for money, Zhu Chengwen must be extremely painful. At the same time, Zhang Tianci and Cheng Songnian used Zhu Chengwen’s psychological weakness to coerce and lure him into joining the group. In desperation, Zhu Chengwen wanted not to betray Jiang Xia. Wang, I had no choice but to agree to them, and helped them do some unreasonable things. Struggling between kindness and morality, I can imagine Zhu Chengwen’s pain. But in the end, the outbreak of Huhong broke his deep heart. Once he was balanced, he decided to report it. Even if he was scolded by the world for being ungrateful, he still wanted to make the true face of the flood to the public. Is this either?"
"Yes. It is for this reason that he was killed by Liao Lirong." Chen Yan said, "Actually, I can imagine how liberated my husband was when he died. He lived like that, maybe more than dead. Pain. It’s just a pity. If he can live longer, can see you and hear you say that King Jiang Xia is only deceived and used by others, he will not be so painful!"
At this point, Chen Yan's eyes were red, and her voice was choked. She hurriedly reached out her hand to cover her mouth, forcing herself not to cry.
"Did he tell you in the letter that if he dies, don't betray King Jiang Xia anyway?" Qin Mubai said.
"Yes. This is the last and only last wish he left for me." Chen Yan said, "I don't know why he is so stupid. In the end, he has already decided to risk being accused of ungratefulness. The truth was made public, but left me with such a last wish in the end?"
Qin Mubai sighed and sighed leisurely: "Love and righteousness are difficult to achieve. Zhu Chengwen is a good person. He has a heart of gratitude and a heart of justice. But these two But he couldn’t get along with his biases, making him unable to survive or to die. I guess, at the end of his life, he had anticipated that he might face the scourge of killing, and he suddenly became enlightened. As a county magistrate, he has this responsibility to uphold the justice of Wang Fa. But after he died, he would no longer be the Jishan magistrate. There would be someone else to handle the Zonggong case, and someone would take over as the magistrate. At this time, there was finally only a heart of gratitude left in his heart. He hoped that King Jiang Xia would be safe...Although he didn't know whether King Jiang Xia was really innocent and was being used by others. He was just simply... Thanks!"
"That is his only last wish. No matter what he says, I will do it desperately." Chen Yan said, "In this way, I came to Jishan. You will know everything that happened next. ."
Qin Mubai was silent.
Zhu Chengwen, an ordinary member of the Tang dynasty who has passed the test of love and blood, and kindness and righteousness, lived in extreme pain. As Chen Yan said, death is a relief for him.
His pain comes from his unparalleled love!
If you are a low-hearted person, An Neng is so painful, even recently died?
And Chen Yan is a simple and straightforward chivalrous man. To be trusted by others to be loyal is to die without hesitation, regardless of success or failure and right or wrong.
The same emphasis on love and meaning.
Love and righteousness, why are there so many versions in this world? Which one is right or wrong?
In other words, should we use simple and absolute "right" and "wrong" to measure love and righteousness?
