Chapter 327 Flattery
Gu Mingzhu didn't just speculate, there were many details like colorful lines arranged on the loom. There was no clue to it. However, it was carefully passed by with a shuttle, and soon a picture would appear in front of you.
And now is the time to come out.
The cases in Taiyuan Prefecture and Beijing were originally on the same line. Sun Zhenren was closely related to Yuan Zhixing. They took advantage of Bai Gongren's guilt towards A Chan and firmly held Bai Gongren in their palms, asking Bai Gongren to blame his leg injury on A Chan's retribution for her.
Bai Gongren was tortured, but he was still full of guilt. He felt that his injury had dragged down Yuan Zhixing. He wholeheartedly took care of Yuan Zhixing's family affairs and compensated Yuan Zhixing with the entire Bai family, including his brother. The brother and sister lived completely in a situation set by others, like a blinded donkey, pulling the millstone in front of him with all his strength and wholeheartedness. Even if he was caught, he was still covering up Yuan Zhixing.
She gradually understood the ways of the people behind her. They were accustomed to using the people around her, so even if they were found out, they had a chance to get out.
There are some things that they are not convenient for them to come forward. People like Sun Zhenren are one of the links. Sun Zhenren walks around not only to convey messages, but also to her identity is easy to enter and exit the inner house and gain the trust of the woman. Sun Zhenren once went to Dingning Marquis's Mansion to treat Mrs. Lin's illness, and also went to the Yuan family to take care of Bai Gongren.
The poison that Sun Zhenren tempered on the silver needle is very similar to what he had dealt with Mr. Zhang back then, so Sun Zhenren is the shuttle, she shuttled through those cases and did those shameful things.
Han Yu and Yuan Zhixing have used the shuttle Sun Zhenren. If you want to know if there are any traces of the lock passing by the Cui family, it is very simple. As long as you go to the Cui family to investigate, you will find clues.
Yuan Zhixing used the Censorate and the Five City Military Command to transport imported goods for profit. Bai Jingkun took the Lu family to transport goods on the sea in Shandong. Who is the person in charge of the Lu family and the sea ships? If this person is caught, the line will be completely removed.
However, what is the connection between Achan's death and the case of Old General Zhao? Yuan Zhixing wanted to kill Zhao because he had planned to kill Zhao with the Cheng family. They did this to preserve Yuan's status in the Cheng family? No? There must be some inside story.
Didn’t Yan Tanhua just checked the capital from the sea? Then he went to the northern border, and the Yan Tanhua line was the source that he would eventually find.
Now they have figured out most of the case? As long as they get some clues, they can find out the rest one by one.
"Bai Jingkun admitted that the person who really controls the Lu family is a woman named Ah Jin."
Gu Mingzhu immediately felt energetic when she heard this.
Wei Yuanchen looked at those bright eyes? He knew why Zhuzhu was happy. He investigated the case in Shanxi for Hou Gu and Mr. Zhang? Now he must be trying to catch the person who harmed Yan Tanhua back then? Everyone was in prison back then, and she was far more willing to treat Yan Tanhua and others than him.
She was not happy with something else, so she found clues so that she could clear her old friends of grievances earlier.
"Sir? Is Ah Jin a member of the Lu family?" Gu Mingzhu thought about it? If Bai Jingkun successfully "take over" the Lu family, someone must be by his side to help.
Wei Yuanchen said: "Bai Jingkun said that Ah Jin is the daughter of Mr. Lu." After Qiao Song left, he ordered Zhang Tong to go back and hold the five-red chicken. He turned around and returned to the prison and asked Bai Jingkun carefully.
Gu Mingzhu listened carefully.
Wei Yuanchen said: "Since Bai Jingkun was imprisoned by 'Master Lu'? �
Bai Jingkun also passed on the Bai family's craftsmanship to Ah Jin, who also gave birth to a son for Bai Jingkun."
Such a ties? No wonder Bai Jingkun took all the charges.
Wei Yuanchen continued: "Bai Jingkun entered Beijing this time? Ah Jin also followed."
"Sir? You asked about Ah Jin's whereabouts?"
Wei Yuanchen raised his head and saw the girl's smile hanging on her face, revealing a few neat and white teeth. Who said that women should not smile? Why should they use a veil to cover it when they are happy? Such a bright smile makes people unable to help but be happy with each other.
Wei Yuanchen said: "Then Ah Jin is in Baoding Mansion. If something happened to Bai Jingkun, she must have left, but she will also leave clues. I will ask the generals to take people to investigate."
Gu Mingzhu happily poured a cup of tea to Wei Yuanchen: "Thank you for your hard work, sir."
Wei Yuanchen took the teacup and said that the tea this time was not cold water, and it turns out that the work will be different after doing it.
Wei Yuanchen said: "I will be heard with Qiao Song. Bai Gongren admitted that Yuan's death was also arranged by Yuan Zhixing. Yuan Zhixing had no way to deny this time. The Ministry of Justice will also investigate Ah Jin and the Lu family. The Imperial Concubine Party has always wanted to capture the people who harmed the prince. If you get this news, you will not be idle. If you catch those people with more people, we can save some effort and continue to track down other clues."
Gu Mingzhu smiled and said, "It's still a long-term plan for the sake of the adults."
Wei Yuanchen didn't like to listen to praise. In his opinion, those flattering words were extremely flattering. Although she had a smile on her face, it was no different from the wet nurse who coaxed him to take medicine when she was a child.
"Sir, do you want to eat one?"
A candied fruit was handed to him, and Wei Yuanchen took it away quietly and put it in his mouth.
Gu Mingzhu happily took back her purse. If Lord Wei likes this candied fruit, why don’t he bring some with him? Maybe he is afraid that he will lose his dignity in front of others!
Thinking about this, Gu Mingzhu turned her head and looked out the window: "Sir, the rain has stopped."
As soon as Gu Mingzhu finished speaking, the rain outside seemed to be against her, and then fell again with a "wow".
Then Gu Mingzhu heard the voice of Yang's mother: "Since the eldest lady has rested in the study, don't be in the room anymore, so as not to catch a cold.
Put two warm cages in the study and put them in the outer room. What are you holding in your hand? Cheese? Didn’t the young lady just eat? If you continue like this, you will have to accumulate food."
Gu Mingzhu was stunned and heard Baotong say, "Miss, Mom Yang is here to see you."
Gu Mingzhu looked at Wei Yuanchen, and Wei Yuanchen sat there calmly, as if she didn't care about being seen.
Gu Mingzhu reached out and grabbed Wei Yuanchen's wrist and pulled him into the warm room.
When Mother Yang walked into the door, what caught her eye was two empty bowls on the table. The young lady was holding a book and was about to drink the chicken soup in the bowl.
"Oh my lady, you can't eat it anymore. I drank two bowls of rice water last time. I've eaten so much today, and I have to let the kitchen cook the digestive soup."
In the warm pavilion, Wei Yuanchen heard the voice of the mother in charge of the Gu family, and seemed to be able to think of her appearance at this moment, which must be both heartbreaking and worrying.
"My lady, you can still laugh."
Gu Mingzhu stood up and walked out: "I'm going to find my mother, I want to eat osmanthus cake."
“It’s raining outside, you can’t run around.”
In the blink of an eye, there was no one in the study, so no one would find the secret of her hiding in the warm pavilion. Wei Yuanchen suddenly felt a little regretful when he tidied up his robe.
...
The heavy rain is still falling.
In Dingning Marquis Mansion, Mrs. Zhang stood at the door and looked around, but she could not see Cui Zhen’s shadow.
A sumptuous meal was prepared in the room, but Mrs. Zhang had no appetite to move.
"Madam, be careful of catching a cold." The manager's mother put her clothes on Mrs. Zhang's shoulders.
Mrs. Zhang seemed to have not heard it, but tears almost fell down: "The Marquis said he was here to eat, so why did he go to the Marquis' Mansion in Huaiyuan? I finally hoped that the Marquis's return to Beijing... I didn't expect that there was no errand in the yamen, and the Marquis's unwilling to go back to the mansion."
The manager's mother comforted him: "Don't think too much. Maybe the Marquis Huaiyuan must keep the Marquis for dinner, and even the Marquis, a junior, cannot refuse."
Mrs. Zhang pursed her lips: "Do you think it's because I haven't given birth to a child that the marquis disliked me?"
The manager's mother said repeatedly: "No, no."
Mrs. Zhang sighed deeply, turned around and walked back to the room, and the candlelight shone on her bleak figure.
