Chapter 437 Spring Plate Gourd Chicken (12)
Of course, Zhao You alone could not do anything to the manpower that the lord had prepared. Lin Fei took Zhao You, A Bing and Tang Yuan out of Dali Temple, but did not follow A Bing and Tang Yuan to the teahouse. Then he headed towards the Chang'an government office.
The night wind blew the people away, and Ah Bing and Tang Yuan came to their senses: "Lin Shaoqing, are we going to the government office now?"
"This year's Lantern Festival has a banquet," Lin Fei explained, looking up at the guests who were walking out of the government office not far ahead. The banquet came to an end and the guests left one after another. There are officials who wear official robes, and there are also children who do not wear official robes and go to banquets with their elders, waiting for promotion.
For a banquet like this, the purpose of the banquet is not just to eat a bite or two of the banquet dishes, but more to socialize with each other and bring the children of the clan to show their faces and support them.
Looking at a white-robed young master who staggered out of the government office, Lin Fei narrowed his eyes and said to Zhao You: "Follow this young master Ye, and in a moment... just take this young master Ye to the teahouse. !”
Why do you want to compete with the other party to have more people? With Mr. Ye in hand, no matter how many people there are, he will not be afraid.
As for Mr. Ye, if he has any complaints about this... It doesn't matter, just complain about the "Sister Mingtang", the piles of letters and the words "Sister Mingtang, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you very much"... Lin Fei's memory had always been good. When he was helping Wen Mingtang burn the letter, he had glimpsed the contents of the letter, and he clearly remembered the words of concern at the beginning. In short... Mr. Ye and he are destined to be at odds with each other. In this case, what's the point of offending him?
…
…
"Back then, your father died unjustly, and your people were all implicated," Ye Zhouxu said with a sigh, "If not for this...how could you be reduced to a position where you have to sit on the stove at such a young age?" Are you to the point where you are tired from working all day long?"
Wen Mingtang glanced at him, sighed quietly, and nodded: "Yes! It's so tiring!"
Ye Zhouxu glanced at the girl who echoed his words, paused for a moment and continued: "Your father never admitted to doing such a thing until his death."
Wen Mingtang nodded and said, "I've heard that too. He didn't plead guilty."
Ye Zhouxu said: "This matter... may have another hidden meaning. The dispute your father had with the dead General Yuan over General Yuan's late concubine was not because he had any special thoughts about that concubine. After all, if you are polite to your mother, how can you care about others? That concubine should be the young daughter of the Wen family who was abducted by a kidnapper, your father's biological sister. The Wen family's daughter was kidnapped by General Yuan How could your father bear to take Na as a concubine? Only then did he shame General Yuan in public."
When Wen Mingtang heard this, he suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is the reason, so the two of them have no personal enmity."
Ye Zhouxu nodded and added: "As for the accounts, it's not against General Yuan. Your father may have found out some secret things and wants to use the excuse of checking General Yuan to follow the clues and find out something."
Wen Mingtang said "hmm", looked at Ye Zhouxu seriously, and asked, "Dare you ask Ye Shibo what the secret is."
Ye Zhouxu looked at her, shook his head and said, "I don't know." He paused and then said, "I only know that your father started to take action because he received a letter. "
Hearing this, Wen Mingtang hurriedly followed his words and asked, "Who sent the letter?"
Ye Zhouxu said: "Although the person who sent the letter was anonymous, he sent the letter to your father's case in the middle of the night when no one was around. But... who is your father? After receiving the letter, he immediately conducted an investigation, and soon after I found the boy who was bribed, and through that boy, I finally found..."
After Ye Zhouxu finished saying that he was critically ill, he paused and did not continue. He just looked at her, obviously waiting for her reaction.
The girl looked anxious and asked hurriedly: "Where did you find it? Who bribed that boy?"
Ye Zhouxu said: "Girl of the Wen family, don't be anxious! You also know this person, but his identity is not ordinary..."
When the girl heard this, she clenched her fists subconsciously and spoke louder because she was so excited: "You know it's extraordinary even if you think about it! How can ordinary people harm him?"
Of course he was referring to Wen Xuance.
Ye Zhouxu looked at the excited girl, but did not directly answer who it was. He just looked at Wen Mingtang for a moment and asked: "Girl of the Wen family, do you know why the people from the Liyang Palace are targeting you? In fact, ...It’s not just for children!”
The girl's eyes immediately widened after hearing this sentence, and she said loudly: "Did Prince Liyang's Mansion bribe the servant to deliver the letter to my father's case?"
Everything turned out as he expected... But was the girl's voice too loud?
Ye Zhouxu frowned slightly and reminded the girl: "This matter should not be made public!"
The girl who was reminded suddenly felt a hint of fear, looked around, and asked Ye Zhouxu: "Ye Shibo, is there no one else here?"
Ye Zhouxu: "..." I didn't expect that someone like Wen Xuance would give birth to such a daughter...
After a pause, he said to the girl: "Don't worry, Wen girl, there is no one else in this teahouse. However, the people from Liyang Palace have sent letters to harm your father, and now they are targeting you again. Obviously they don't want to let you go." . What are your plans now, girl?"
The girl clenched her fists and said, "Of course it's to sue the official! Doesn't his majestic Prince Liyang's palace still have royal laws?"
This reaction... was exactly what he expected! Ye Zhouxu nodded.
The longer a girl who is inexperienced in the world spends in a place like Dali Temple Yamen, and the more murderers she sees being brought to justice, the more she feels that there is nothing in this world that cannot be solved by complaining to the officials. This is what the government does. The most innocent and just place in the world! As everyone knows, there are always some exceptions in this world.
"It's good to sue the official!" Ye Zhouxu glanced at the girl approvingly and said, "But the other party is the Liyang Prince's Mansion. I'm afraid not any official would dare to take over the Prince's Mansion's case."
Hearing this, Wen Mingtang hurriedly followed Ye Zhouxu's words and asked: "Ye Shibo, what should I do? Which adult should I find to take over this case?"
Ye Zhouxu hesitated for a moment, then asked Wen Mingtang: "Which of your Dali Temple masters is the most powerful?"
Wen Mingtang's eyes flickered: "It's our Lin Shaoqing."
Ye Zhouxu nodded and said: "I have also heard that Lin Shaoqing is very clever in investigating cases. Previously, when I came to look for you, I was scolded by Lin Shaoqing due to a misunderstanding. It shows that he is not afraid of powerful people."
Hearing this, Wen Mingtang's heart skipped a beat, and a strange feeling arose spontaneously: What kind of secret is this? Why does Ye Zhouxu seem to be trying his best to drag Lin Fei into the water?
Although he felt strange in his heart, Wen Mingtang still followed Ye Zhouxu's words with a look of surprise on his face: "That's it! How could I forget Lin Shaoqing? He has always been the most powerful in investigating cases! He is not afraid of the Liyang Palace. Man, it’s best to turn to him for this kind of thing!”
