The Golden Age Chapter 500: Shaoqing’s case
When Wei Bi got up, it was already noon.
Because his wife was entangled by resentful spirits, Guanglu Temple specially set Wei Bi a long holiday. Wei Bi did not have to go to the Yamen for some time, so the time was very free.
Outsiders only think that Wei Bi is taking care of his wife in the mansion every day, but only the people in the mansion know that the master will go out late in the evening, and no one knows where he is going, but every day it will be dark. Back to the mansion, and did not get up until noon when he slept.
The kitchen will prepare meals for Wei Bi at noon on time every day, and Wei Bi will naturally wake up at noon without anyone calling.
But today Wei Bi didn't wake up by himself, but was called to stand up.
Naturally, Wei Bi did not live with Madam Wei. In fact, in recent days, he rarely even went to Madam Wei’s room and slept in a separate courtyard.
Wake up in his sleep, which made Wei Bi very unhappy. He abandoned the trial and put on a coat, opened the door, thinking about expelling the family tree that awakened himself from the Weifu house, so that other people would rise. I raised the rules, and when I saw the servant in front of the door looked flustered, I couldn't help frowning: "What's the matter?"
"Master, Da...Dali Temple...!" The servant raised his finger in the direction of the front courtyard and stammered: "The officer of Dali Temple ran to the house and asked... .I want an adult to see you!"
"Dali Temple?" Wei Bi's face sank, his heart felt a little guilty, and he asked, "How many people are they here?"
"There are not many people, there are only five or six people." The servant said: "The fee of Dali Temple... Master Fei personally brought people over, so that the villain can quickly let the adults meet."
Wei Bi heard that it was Fei Xin, and his face was slightly relieved, and he asked, "Where is Wei Cheng? Let him go to greet Master Fei first and get tea quickly."
"In the morning, the housekeeper said he was going out to buy some things." The servant said: "I haven't come back yet."
Wei Bi frowned, but didn't say much, and ordered: "Then let other people have tea, I'll clean up and go." Turning back to the house.
Fai Xin sat in the main hall of the Wei mansion, his face a little dignified.
After receiving Wei Cheng’s complaint, Qin Xiao seemed to be discussing with Fei Xin whether to try the case, but after all, it was arbitrary. Without notifying Dali Temple official Su Yu, he directly signed a summons order. , And asked Fei Xin to personally bring people over to pass Wei Bi to Dali Temple.
Generally speaking, if the Dali Temple wants to send a person, it is enough to send a leader. If the person who sends the message is too high, at most one will be sent. Naturally, it also said that Qin Xiao attached great importance to this matter.
Although Fei Xin was older than Qin Xiao, his official rank was one level lower than Qin Xiao, and the senior official crushed people to death. Qin Xiao's orders, he did not dare to refuse.
"Brother Fei!" Wei Bi came out of the back hall in a brocade suit with a smile on his face, and said, "Have a long time!"
When he spoke, he glanced outside the main hall, only to see a few Dali Temple guards standing in the yard, perhaps because of a long-term habit, they all looked listless and scattered.
Fai Xin stood up, folded his hands and smiled: "Brother Wei, is this just getting up?"
"Brother Fei knows that my wife is unwell. I have recently taken care of him day and night. I dare not neglect, so I am a little tired." Wei Bi smiled and said, "Brother Fei, please sit down!"
"
Stop sitting. "Fei Xin took out an official letter from his sleeve and handed it over, "Master Wei, take a look first. This is a summons order from Dali Temple." "
Wei Bi’s smile on his face narrowed, and the official letter was opened and glanced, then he handed it back, frowning and said: "Dali Temple is going to send a message to my brother? Brother Fei, where do you start? What case can't be done?"
"Master Wei is worried too much." Fei Xin put up the summons order and said with a smile: "It's just a trivial matter. There are some small questions at Dali Temple that you need to ask Master Wei. There will be no big things. ."
Wei Bi knew that Fei Xin's words were not sincere. If it were not involved in the case, Dali Temple would not have allowed Fei Xin to visit him personally. After hesitating, he moved closer and whispered: "Brother Fei, you I am a good friend. Please remind me of what happened, lest I get to Dali Temple and I don’t know what happened."
"It's really nothing." Feixin still said with a smile: "We are close friends, can we still lie to you?" Raising his hand, "Master Wei, let's go!"
Seeing Fei Xin smiling kindly, Wei Bi cursed in his heart, but still ordered the servant to set up the car.
He naturally knew that since the people of Dali Temple came to send the information, he really couldn't resist it. Although he was worried, he didn't teach Dali Temple to seize his handle.
Wei Bi took a carriage to Dali Temple, Fei Xin led Wei Bi to a yard west of Dali Temple.
The courtyard was deserted. The gray house in the courtyard was a bit solemn. The door was open, and the black plaque on the door was engraved with the three bronzing characters "Zuo Qing Department". Although Wei Bi was the first to come When I went to Dali Temple, I also knew that Dali Temple had a right and left government office, which was the place where Dali Temple left and right Shaoqing to do errands.
He also knows that Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple who has just taken office is Qin Xiao. He thought that Qin Xiao had also mixed with his mansion two days ago, and today he was taken into Dali Temple and came directly to Qin Xiao’s site. An ominous hunch struck my heart, standing in front of the door, but didn't dare to take a step inside.
Standing on the cool stone slab, looking at the red sunrise wall of the East China Sea behind Gongan in the lobby, the inside of the hall is dark, and it seems that there are bursts of cold air diffusing from the hall, which makes Wei Bi feel more up and down. It feels cold.
There was no one in the hall. Wei Bi turned to look at Fei Xin, but saw Fei Xin's expression calm, he couldn't help asking: "Fei... Master Fei, what does this mean?"
"Master Laoweiwei wait first." Fei Xinhan smiled and said, "Qin Shaoqing will come out for questioning soon. No matter what you ask, you just tell the truth."
Wei Bi raised his eyebrows: "Is it Qin Xiao Qin Shaoqing?"
"Not bad." Fei Xin nodded slightly without saying much.
Wei Bi hesitated for a while, stabilized his emotions, and finally walked to the lobby of the Zuo Qing Department, but Fei Xin did not follow in, but just stood outside the door.
Soon, I saw a policeman came out with a chair and placed it next to Wei Bi. Upon seeing this, Wei Bi couldn’t guess what Qin Xiao intended for a while, but he was at ease when he came. He calmed down, calmed himself down, and then sat down in the chair.
The chair is facing the lobby, and Wei Bi knows that Qin Xiao will come out soon.
Sure enough, only for a moment, someone walked around from the back hall. He was young and dressed in the official robes of Shaoqing of Dali Temple. Although Wei Bi hadn’t seen Qin Xiao, he knew who had come and stood up. , Handing over to Qin Xiao, Qin Xiao smiled and said: "Sit down, Cheng Weisi!" Since
Ji walked to the chair behind the case and sat down.
Wei Bi is a little strange because there is no yacha from Dali Temple in the hall.
"Si Cheng, please come over, I want you to help with a case." Qin Xiao sat on a chair, took a complaint in his hand, opened the door and smiled: "Master Wei, the officer has just arrived at Dali Temple. I haven't heard any major cases before, so I asked someone for advice temporarily, and I barely knew what to do. If there is something wrong, please give me some advice."
Wei Bi was even more stunned, only to see Qin Xiao's gentle smile on his face, and his originally tight heartstrings relaxed slightly, and he said, "Don't dare. Master Shaoqing sent someone to send a message, the next official came here, and heard that the adult There are a few words to ask, so it is natural to know everything when you are in an official position."
"That's good, that's good." Qin Xiao said with a smile: "This case is extraordinary, and it is not a formal trial today. I just chatted with Master Wei alone. I know Master Wei and Master Fei Xinfei. There are some friendships. In the face of Master Wei, the official is still willing to close the case as soon as possible without too many people present."
Wei Bi looked calm and smiled lightly: "But I don't know what case the adults are talking about?"
"Master Wei, I heard that your mansion is haunting?" Qin Xiao asked with a smile on his face.
Wei Bi frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and nodded slightly: "I don’t talk about strange powers, but he is a scholar. I shouldn’t talk about ghosts. I just despise the fact that there have been weird things in the past few months. A strange thing happened, and many people in the mansion knew it well.” Staring at Qin Xiao, he asked, “Qin Shaoqing, I don’t know what is going on with the case being tried by Master Shaoqing? Why did you suddenly ask about it?”
"Master Wei, don't worry." Qin Xiao also looked at Wei Bi and said, "There is a person named Wei Cheng, do you know Master Wei?"
Wei Bi looked calm and nodded and said: "Know, Wei Cheng is the steward of the government."
"Master Wei's surname is Wei, and Wei Cheng is also surnamed Wei. Not only does he have the same surname as Master Wei, he is also the housekeeper of your house, but I don't know if there are any other relatives?"
"Wei Cheng is the uncle of the next official." Wei Bi frowned slightly: "Six years ago when the next official came to Beijing with his wife, he was not accompanied, so I brought Wei Cheng to help. Our Wei family Ding Bu There are many, and there are very few people who have seen the world and have some talents. Wei Cheng is considered to be one of them who can do things, so he followed Xiaguan."
"In that case, Wei Cheng is the confidant of Master Wei?" Qin Xiao's face is kind, as if he is a close friend with Wei Bi, and he is free to talk about family affairs.
Wei Bi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "There is nothing wrong with the confidant. The official pays his wages. He helps the official to take care of the trivial affairs in the house. After all, he is a member of his own tribe. Outsiders need to rest assured."
"Not bad." Qin Xiao nodded and said: "My family, even if you ask him to do things that he shouldn't do, he is more reliable than outsiders."
Wei Bi's face sank, his eyes became cold and stern, and he stared at Qin Xiao said: "Qin Shaoqing didn't understand what the official said, what is meant by something that should not be done? The official has always read the books of sages and sages. I think about my life three times a day, lest my words and deeds violate the teachings of the sages, and everything I do is done in accordance with the teachings of the sages. If the teachings of the sages are taught, then there is nothing that shouldn’t be done.” The voice was cold: “Qin Shaoqing, Today, when you call the subordinate officer, you still have to say something bluntly. You don’t need to be circumspect. The subordinate officer has to rush back to take care of his wife. There is no time to spend here."
