Chapter 670

He Shizhong felt that he had no face to face his father. If this matter spread throughout the capital, the He family would be discredited. He would not return home, and he would not even want to stay in the capital.

He Shizhong came to Beizhen Fushi in a daze, trying to get a horse from the Guaner of the Sijian and leave the capital.

Just so happened that he met Li Heijiu, the North Punishment envoy, and Chen Weijing, the Japanese Household Institute, at the door.

The Japanese 100 Household House was established by He Liu when he was strongly advocated by him. Now there are more than 200 people. These people first learned Korean and Japanese dialect for more than half a year. Then they disguised themselves as smuggling maritime merchants and went to Japan to inquire about the news.

Chen Weijing was originally a maritime businessman. He Liu promoted him to the Jinyiwei Hundred Houses, specializing in the Japanese 100 Houses.

When Li Heijiu saw He Shizhong, he smiled and said, "Didn't I give you ten days off? I just had a wedding banquet yesterday, why are you here today?"

He Shizhong said perfunctorily: "Oh, my father asked me to do the important errand."

Li Heijiu didn't ask any errands. The rules of the Jinyiwei: Don't ask what you shouldn't ask.

If Li Hejiu wants him to know about the errands that Master He Liu told him, he will naturally know about it. If he doesn't want him to know about it, it will be useless for him to inquire.

Chen Weijing said to He Shizhong, "My master, I will set off for Tanggukou today and go to the Japanese state to work in the sea. The trip is too urgent and there are too many things to prepare. I didn't pour it out yesterday. I'm going to congratulate you. I'm really sorry."

He Shizhong heard this and thought flashed through his mind. He lied to Li Heijiu and Shen Weijing: "Chen Baihu, my father asked me to go to Japan with you. The errand I just mentioned is exactly this."

Li Heijiu frowned: "Going to Japan is like going deep into the tiger's den! Your father is so cruel! You just got married, and the bed in the bridal chamber may not be warmed up yet. Let you go to Japan thousands of miles away?"

Chen Weijing also said, "Yes, we went to Japan to collect military information. We have to live in several major vassals for more than a year. In addition, this round trip will take at least one and a half years before we can return to the capital. Sixth Master is sure to let you go with us?"

He Shizhong continued to lie: "My father said, let me follow Chen Baihu to Japan to experience more. The marriage has become a long time, and the bride can't escape when she lives in my house."

He Shizhong said this, and Li Heijiu and Shen Weijing were not good at questioning anymore. Although Sixth Master has retired to the room now, no one in the Jinyiwei dared to disobey his orders.

Chen Weijing and He Shizhong each took a fast horse and headed straight to Tanggukou. Dozens of other brothers from the Japanese Love Hundred House were already waiting at Tanggukou. When they arrived, they could go out to sea.

He Mansion.

He Liu found several of the most famous doctors in the capital and prescribed a prescription for Bai Xiaoyan who fainted.

The doctors gave Bai Xiaoyan a bowl of soul-recovering soup, and she finally woke up.

He Liu walked to the edge of the bed and grabbed Bai Xiaoyan's hand: "Are you okay? I'm scared to death!"

Bai Xiaoyan's first sentence was: "There must be a hidden truth in this matter. Don't scold Shizhong without asking any questions!"

He Liu remembered the curse that Lu Miaoyun put before his death. He said, "Shizhong is not a crazy slut. I know there is a hidden truth in this matter. Don't worry, I won't blame him randomly."

Bai Xiaoyan said again: "I remember you told me before that in the 39th year of Jiajing, Liu Da bribed a widow who opened a restaurant and framed Fu Hanling for forcing the insulting the people's daughter. I think He Fangqing's little hoof must have used the same method as the widow to deliberately frame our Shizhong. Let our He family lose all face in the capital!"

He Liu held Bai Xiaoyan's hand: "Don't worry. I have asked someone to lock He Fangqing in the small building. The servants don't have the courage to go out and spread it blindly. Outsiders will not know about this!"

Bai Xiaoyan said, "That's good! Shizhong was just appointed as the deputy Qianhu. Don't let this matter ruin his future."

Even if He Shizhong has a prominent family matter, once he has a bad reputation like "insulting his mother", his future will be ruined. He may even be guilty and beheaded and exiled. After all, the Ming Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety and avoided incest. What's more, his son forcibly insulted his mother in name?

After comforting Bai Xiaoyan, He Liu asked his family to go out to find He Shizhong. But until the evening, the family did not find the shadow of the young master.

By chance, in the evening, Yang Wan came to He Liu to report some errands.

Yang Wan walked up to He Liu and bowed: "Sixth Master, Zhang Antang, the former Shanxi governor, has been escorted to Beijing. The Ministry of Justice sent someone to ask whether to be imprisoned in their Ministry of Justice or our Embroidered Imperial Guard. The brothers we sent to Jiangnan have already found out the case of family destruction in Suzhou. They sent letters from Feige of Suzhou to ask whether the murderer should be rectified on the spot; and the Hubei Nisiya Office issued a document for our Embroidered Imperial Guard..."

He Liu waved his hand: "You can discuss these things with Li Heijiu, Li Zipian and the others! They are the policing envoys of the Southern and Northern Divisions."

Yang Wan was a little surprised. Sixth Master seemed to be in a bad mood today. Why did he seem so impatient with these business matters?

Yang Wan said "Oh" and turned around and was about to leave.

He Liu suddenly called him and asked, "Oh, by the way, did you see your brother today?"

Yang Wan was stunned: "Brother Yi? Master Liu, didn't you ask him to go to Japan to spy on military information with Shen Weijing?"

He Liu was anxious and walked directly to Yang Wan, grabbed his collar with both hands: "What? Who did you hear?"

Yang Wan was confused: "I heard from Lord Li, the North Punishment Commander!"

He Liuxin said: It's bad! It must be that Shizhong, the boy, felt ashamed to stay in the capital, and told a lie, wanting to go to Japan with Shen Weijing for a while to escape the incident that happened last night.

Japan is a tiger's den, so how could He Liu be willing to let his son go deep into the tiger's den? He quickly ordered Yang Wan: "You should ride on the fast horse immediately, go to Tanggukou overnight to stop Shizhong! Hurry!"

Yang Wan is a smart man, and he immediately heard the clues. He asked: "My brother lied to Li Zhenfu and Shen Weijing?"

He Liudao: "Don't worry about that much, hurry up and go to Tanggukou!"

Yang Wan left the mansion and rode his horse towards Tanggukou. By the time he arrived at Tanggukou, it was too late. The sea ship carrying dozens of brothers from the Japanese Love House had already started to anchor.

Yang Wan turned his head again and returned to the capital to report. By the time he rushed back to the capital, it was already the next day.

When He Liu saw Yang Wan, he stood up and asked anxiously: "Have you stopped Shizhong?"

Yang Wan shook his head: "Before I arrived at Tianjin Wei, they had already left. Sixth Master, why not like this, I will go to the former military governor's office to ask for a warrant and order the Tanggukou Navy to send a Huya Clipper to intercept the sea ship carrying Yidi."

He Liuyi sat on the chair. He thought about it all night last night: It might be a good thing for Shizhong to go to Japan. When he comes back a year or two, this embarrassing scandal will disappear; but Japan is dangerous. If he does something happen to him there, wouldn’t the He family be defeated?

He Liu was in a dilemma and was very entangled. He himself didn't know whether he should stop his son.

Now that the sea boat has already started to anchor and the wood has already been completed, He Liu thought: Forget it, let it go.

Yang Wan reminded He Liu: "Master Liu, do you have to make a decision quickly whether to send the Tiger-Our Clippers to chase the sea ship. If it is too late, I'm afraid the Tiger-Our Clippers will not catch up with them!"

He Liudao: "Forget it! You have been traveling around Beijing and Tianjin all night. Thank you for your hard work, go home to rest."
