Chapter 103 Xu Qingxiaos unique method of handling cases, the time limit has come, everyone
Attention of the country!
Great Wei Jingcheng.
Looking at the building with the peach blossom icon, Xu Qingxiao felt inexplicably that she had gone through hard work and found nothing, and that it took no effort to get there.
At this moment, Xu Qingxiao finally understood the meaning of Baiyimen's letter.
Let yourself come and get together.
But Xu Qingxiao didn't think much and turned around and left.
There is no other reason. At this juncture, if you say something unpleasant, people will look at you everywhere.
His Majesty has already decreed that he should take over the Pingqiu Mansion disaster relief case. Not to mention whether the mastermind behind this will cause trouble for him, the six departments will also send people to follow him.
If you go to meet the disciples of the Baiyi Sect at this time, you will die.
Besides, it has been delayed for such a long time anyway, so it doesn’t matter if we delay it a little longer.
Turn around and leave.
Xu Qingxiao returned to the school. Yang Hu and others had been waiting here for a long time without saying anything. Xu Qingxiao handed them their identity tokens and left only one sentence.
"I have a case to handle, so be prepared to run around these days. It's a big case."
After saying this sentence, the six people looked at each other, and then their eyes were full of excitement.
It was really exciting to handle a big case right after I came here.
"Stop looking and go practice martial arts quickly. We are about to handle a big case, so don't be careless."
"Brothers, if we succeed this time, we will be prosperous and wealthy in the future, but it is possible that after this case is over, we brothers may not still be together."
"Be more cautious."
Yang Hu opened his mouth. Although what he said was a bit cruel, everyone understood that Xu Qingxiao said it was a major case and there must be many dangers.
The few of them didn't talk nonsense and hurriedly ran to practice martial arts to improve their self-protection ability.
An hour later, Xu Qingxiao's voice sounded.
"Yang Hu, send this letter to the Ministry of Punishment."
Xu Qingxiao spoke, flew the letter out of the window, and landed in Yang Hu's hands.
"Yes, sir."
Yang Hu didn't waste any time, picked up the letter and walked directly towards the Ministry of Justice.
After arriving at the Ministry of Punishments, Yang Hu handed the letter to the clerk of the Ministry of Punishments and told him that it was from Xu Qingxiao. The latter was immediately frightened and did not dare to neglect.
The content of the letter is also very simple. Xu Qingxiao will basically not come to the Ministry of Punishments within this month. He wants to thoroughly investigate the case. It is considered a letter asking for leave.
But as soon as this letter came out, it didn't take long for it to spread to the ears of the powerful people in the entire capital.
Xu Qingxiao took over the 'Pingqiu Mansion Disaster Relief Case', which naturally touched the hearts of many people in both the government and the public.
On this day, many people gathered together to discuss this matter.
Inside the Wen Palace of the Great Wei Dynasty.
Chen Zhengru sat down with Wang Xinzhi and Sun Jing'an, the ministers of the Ministry of Rites. They were all from the Confucian and Taoist lineage, one was the prime minister, the other was the minister, and Sun Jing'an was a Confucian official.
"Xu Qingxiao sent someone to deliver a letter to the Ministry of Justice. He fully knew that the content of this letter would be spread. He wanted to tell the government and the public that he would investigate the matter thoroughly. What do you two think?"
When Chen Zhengru opened his mouth, he knew at a glance what the purpose of Xu Qingxiao's messenger was. It was simply to tell the government and the public that he, Xu Qingxiao, was going to start investigating the case.
"With Xu Qingxiao's intelligence, I must have noticed something. I have read the files of the Pingqiu Mansion disaster relief case over and over again more than ten times. Four of the first five people in charge died and one went crazy. There is obviously something wrong with the person behind it.
, I have guessed a few things over the years, so I don’t know if Xu Qingxiao has guessed it."
Wang Xinzhi opened his mouth. Although he was not from the Ministry of Punishment, this case was too involved and had a very bad impact. Officials from the six ministries were involved in it and had reviewed the files in batches. With their wisdom, they could think of anything that Xu Qingxiao could think of.
, coupled with their understanding of the situation in the court, they already have a suspect target.
"We have all followed His Majesty's advice. Now His Majesty wants to reverse the case. I don't know what His Majesty's intention is, but no matter what, Xu Qingxiao cannot solve the case."
Sun Jing'an shook his head. He also knew that he had fallen into His Majesty's trap, but even so, Sun Jing'an still believed that Xu Qingxiao could not solve the case.
Li Zhengru and Wang Xinzhi didn't speak, not because they thought so too.
"This case involves too much. Whoever is behind the scenes has a great influence on the court, and one of them is."
After a while, Wang Xinzhi spoke, but when he got to this point, he did not continue.
Both of them understood clearly.
"No matter who it is, there is no solution to this case."
Sun Jing'an shook his head and expressed his opinion.
"Those in charge have died and one has gone crazy, and any relevant clues have been cut off. Mr. Zhang Jing, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishments, personally investigated, but no results were found."
"Whether they are the masterminds behind the scenes or not, at least both witness and physical evidence are indispensable. If you want to convict them, witnesses alone are useless, and physical evidence alone is useless. You must have complete witnesses and material evidence before you can convict.
"
"Your Majesty gave Xu Qingxiao a month. Even if Xu Qingxiao is a genius, he cannot solve the case. All the relevant witnesses died at Zhang Nantian's home. Unless the 20 million taels of stolen silver can be found, the relevant physical evidence will not be solved."
, it won’t help anything.”
"I think your Majesty is taking the opportunity to inspect Xu Qingxiao this time, and also wants to beat him up."
Sun Jing'an said it very directly. He didn't think Xu Qingxiao could crack the case. The key reason was that there were no witnesses or material evidence to convict him. So what if he found 20 million taels of silver? If there were no witnesses, it would not help. If he found it, it would not help.
If no physical evidence can be found, the witness will be of no use.
Because the status of the mastermind behind the scenes is too high.
"Yes." Wang Xinzhi nodded, agreeing with Sun Jing'an's words.
However, Chen Zhengru said with some emotion.
"If it were any other person, I would agree with Sun Ru's words, maybe Xu Qingxiao, I don't know why, I feel he is qualified."
Chen Zhengru didn't know why he felt like this, he just felt that Xu Qingxiao might really be able to solve the case.
"Chen Ru, the reason why you feel this way is because Xu Qingxiao is too good at building momentum."
"Have you noticed that Xu Qingxiao first had an eternal term to please the military attachés, and then he became famous in Kyoto with his peerless articles in the imperial examination, but at that time his fame was still limited."
"In order to further expand his reputation, Xu Qingxiao angrily denounced Yan Ru, became famous in one battle, and then entered the capital and caused chaos in the Ministry of Justice. What is his purpose? It is nothing more than reputation."
"Although it is a bad name, it is also a reputation. Who in the Wei Dynasty does not know Xu Qingxiao now? Even his name of Xu Qingxiao is somewhat famous outside the Wei Dynasty. And what price did Xu Qingxiao pay?"
"It is precisely because of this kind of momentum that Chen Ru has some inexplicable opinions about him. But in my eyes, Xu Qingxiao is just a talent of luck. After all, he will never become a person."
Sun Jing'an said seriously that he admitted that Xu Qingxiao was talented, but what he believed more was that Xu Qingxiao's talent was not as evil as rumored, it was just about creating momentum and luck.
Such evil intentions will not shape the future.
"well."
Chen Zhengru sighed. He glanced at Sun Jing'an and did not answer. Firstly, he didn't know how to answer, and secondly, he could see that Sun Jing'an was very hostile to Xu Qingxiao.
But this is also a reasonable thing. After all, Sun Jing'an has the heart of Zhu Sheng and swears to protect Zhu Sheng's line to the death. Now Xu Qingxiao is bound to establish a new academic institution. It is too normal for Sun Jing'an to be hostile to him. If Sun Jing'an is not hostile to Xu Qingxiao
, then there is a problem.
"That's it, that's it. Let someone keep an eye on Xu Qingxiao. If there is any trouble, report it as soon as possible."
Chen Zhengru didn't say much. As the prime minister, he must have insight into everything. Xu Qingxiao took over the case. Regardless of whether Xu Qingxiao could find the real culprit, he also had to grasp the overall situation.
Once any problem occurs, it must be stopped in time, otherwise it will be detrimental to the court, your Majesty, and the people.
at the same time.
In the Ministry of Punishment.
Zhang Jing, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Feng Jianhua, the left minister, and Li Yuan, the right minister, were sitting in the lobby.
Zhang Jing's expression was quite calm. Fortunately, Feng Jianhua had escaped. After all, he had escaped. Xu Qingxiao had come back after the trouble. After all, he still had a lot of official duties and it would be impossible to stay out all the time.
As for Li Yuan, he looked at Feng Jianhua with some resentment. He was a minister, but he was brutally tortured by Xu Qingxiao for twenty times. If the imperial doctor had not sent special medicines, he would not have been able to recover so quickly.
"Have you read the letter Xu Qingxiao sent?"
Zhang Jing spoke in a calm tone.
"Looked at it."
Feng Jianhua replied.
Li Yuan, on the other hand, spoke indifferently.
"Xu Qingxiao is really stupid. I'm afraid he hasn't realized how much this case involves. He thought it was an ordinary mystery and dared to take it."
Li Yuan's tone was not good.
As soon as he said this, Zhang Jing shook his head.
"he knows."
These three words made Li Yuan's expression change.
"Master Shangshu, do you think Xu Qingxiao knows the scope of this case?"
Li Yuan was a little surprised.
"kindness."
Zhang Jing nodded. Although he also hated Xu Qingxiao, he would never ignore a person's talent and strength because of hatred. This would only make him look stupid.
"The talent of Xu Qingxiao cannot be underestimated. Although we hate him, we must not underestimate him."
"He should have already guessed part of this dossier. At least he knows the extent of the involvement behind this dossier."
Zhang Jing replied like this.
For a moment, Feng Jianhua and Li Yuan were silent.
There is nothing wrong with what Zhang Jing said. Xu Qingxiao's talent is obvious to all. You can say that he is arrogant, you can also say that he is not a gentleman, but you cannot say that his talent is not good.
If Xu Qingxiao is not talented, who in the world would dare to say that he is talented?
"Hmph, since he knew it, he still dared to take the case. He is really arrogant. Could it be that he really thought he could overturn the case?"
Li Yuan was still a little unhappy and said sarcastically.
"The case involves so much that Xu Qingxiao dares to take it over. Isn't he afraid?"
Feng Jianhua didn't have any resentment. After all, he wasn't beaten, so he didn't like Xu Qingxiao, but he wasn't as prejudiced as Li Yuan.
"I think he must have guessed that this was His Majesty's intention, so he was so bold and took over the case."
"Otherwise, even if I had a hundred courages, he wouldn't dare to take over the case."
Zhang Jing spoke up, and he instantly understood what Xu Qingxiao was thinking.
Soon Zhang Jing continued to speak.
"It's just that Xu Qingxiao is still too young. Even if he has His Majesty's support, what will happen?"
"Even if His Majesty wants to overturn this case, he may not be able to overturn it. The Pingqiu Mansion disaster relief case is so involved that it is unimaginable."
"Back then, when I was still the minister, I took over the case and encountered various obstacles. Your Majesty asked Xu Qingxiao to solve the case within a month. How can he solve it?"
Zhang Jing shook his head. As the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, he took over the case and was the minister of the Ministry of Punishment. He also encountered many obstacles in taking over the case.
Xu Qingxiao is now a principal, and if he wants to take over the case, he is afraid that there will be more trouble and obstacles than he originally had.
As for Xu Qingxiao, is His Majesty supporting him?
But Zhang Jing had Emperor Wu supporting him back then.
It was just that it was a little more turbulent back then, but it's more stable now, but the two are actually pretty much the same.
"This case is extremely involved, and it happened to be during the late years of the late emperor when the government and the public were in turmoil. There are too many things in it. All the witnesses and physical evidence can't be found. Xu Qingxiao can't solve the case."
"The most critical witness has gone crazy. Even if Xu Qingxiao is really capable of solving the case, it will not help."
The two men seconded the proposal and agreed with what Zhang Shangshu said.
It's not that Xu Qingxiao is unfavorable, but there are three problems that Xu Qingxiao can't solve.
First, you can’t find any personal or physical evidence.
Second, someone will hinder you from handling the case.
Third, even if you find it, you may not dare to reverse the case.
The above three points are the fundamental reasons why this case has not been dealt with until now.
"Forget it, let's see how he handles the case first. Let people keep an eye on Xu Qingxiao. Any news must be reported."
Zhang Jing also couldn't imagine how Xu Qingxiao would handle the case.
But what he knew was that after Xu Qingxiao sent this letter, he would definitely try his best to handle the case, and his attitude would be very serious.
So just wait.
For a time, almost all the nobles in Kyoto were talking about this matter to one degree or another. Everyone knew very well that Xu Qingxiao was serious about it, and His Majesty was also serious about it.
It was just how Xu Qingxiao wanted to handle the case that aroused everyone's doubts.
One year in Wuchang.
May 26th.
Outside Shouren Academy, there were inexplicably more people, vendors, and jugglers, and the area around the academy suddenly seemed a little lively.
The capital is very big, but sometimes it is not that big. Under the influence of eyeliners, places that are not lively can become lively.
At this moment, a figure walked out of Shouren Academy.
In an instant, many figures followed him.
Not long after, another figure walked out.
Immediately many more figures followed him.
After repeated repetitions, all six of Yang Hu left Shouren Academy.
This day, late at night.
Wen Palace of the Great Wei Dynasty.
Several files appeared in the homes of the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Husbandry, the Ministry of War, the nine Dukes, various princes, and many dignitaries of the Wei Dynasty. These were records of the whereabouts of their spies tracking Yang Hu and others.
Inside the Wen Palace.
Chen Zhengru and Sun Jing'an opened the files.
Then the expressions of the two of them changed slightly.
The files are as follows.
——
Wuchang Year 1, May 26th.
The subordinate followed Xu Qingxiao's subordinate Li Jian all the way to the North Market. Li Jian bought twenty-five eggs, two pounds of beef, four pounds of mutton, one pound of cabbage, two bundles of green vegetables, and half a basket of fish balls, and then returned to the school.
——
Wuchang Year 1, May 26th.
The subordinate followed Xu Qingxiao's subordinate Li Kang all the way to the West Market. Li Kang bought two pieces of iron, an ice chisel, a copper stove, a pot of fragrant wine, star anise, cinnamon, fresh pepper, red oil, and beef.
Half a pound each of oil.
——
Several files have almost the same content. Yang Hu, Yang Bao and others went out today, appearing mysterious and mysterious, but their purpose was to buy some daily necessities, which was very ordinary.
There is no problem at all, but this lack of problem makes them feel that the problem is bigger.
"What the hell is Xu Qingxiao doing?"
Sun Jing'an frowned. He was a little confused. Although today was only the first day, there were still twenty-nine days left before the time specified by His Majesty. He didn't need to be too busy, but it wasn't... right?
"Calm down and take a look."
Chen Zhengru was not in any hurry. Instead, he asked Sun Jing to calm down and see what Xu Qingxiao was going to do.
At the same time, in the Criminal Department, Zhang Jing was also a little confused. If he didn't say he would do something drastic on the first day, he wouldn't let his subordinates buy some of these things, right?
And does it take a day to buy this thing? Does it need to cost so much?
What's there to do when you're full?
"I want to see how this Xu Qingxiao handles the case."
Zhang Jing put down these files, his eyes full of curiosity.
From the perspective of the Ministry of Punishment, he hopes that Xu Qingxiao will succeed in solving the case, but from the perspective of the Minister of Punishment, he does not hope that Xu Qingxiao will succeed in solving the case. From a personal perspective, he hopes that Xu Qingxiao will not succeed in solving the case and will be reprimanded by His Majesty.
Anguo Gongfu.
An Guogong sat in front of the desk, reading these files, while Li Bing stood aside and frowned.
"Father, what do these brothers want to do? My kid can't understand."
Li Bing really couldn't understand. When he was so nervous, Xu Qingxiao asked people to buy some of these things, daily necessities such as eggs, meat, vegetables, kitchen knives and ice picks, which were a bit weird.
"My nephew Xu is an eternal genius. It's normal for you not to understand. To be honest, my father can only understand a little bit."
An Guogong said a little shamelessly that he couldn't understand it either, but in front of his son, he couldn't say that he couldn't understand it.
"Okay, just keep asking for information. Don't let go of any details. Tell the people below. Don't take it lightly."
Anguo opened his mouth and said this.
"Yes, father."
Li Bing nodded and agreed.
Just like that, it was the second day.
Early in the morning, there was a commotion in Shouren Academy. Yang Hu and the other two people walked out of the school separately. Each of them looked at the surroundings with serious expressions. After paying attention, they left the school.
And in the darkness, many shadows followed.
Until the evening, Yang Hu and the six returned, still bringing many strange things with them.
The most eye-catching thing among them is a large piece of ice stone.
No one knew what Xu Qingxiao was up to. Outside the school, the spies from the Six Ministries, the Duke, the powerful, the princes, and many civil and military forces in the Manchu Dynasty were all confused.
They followed them all day today without saying anything in fear. The most important thing is that at the end of the day, these people went shopping again, and the things they bought were all common things. Occasionally they were a little weird, but they were also
It has no effect.
It's already the second day, and it's really confusing what Xu Qingxiao will do next.
The third day.
Yang Hu and others did not come out. The spies were waiting at the door, not daring to miss any detail.
But on this day, everyone finally knew why Xu Qingxiao bought so many things.
In Shouren Academy, the rising mist floated, and outside the academy, Xu Qingxiao was eating antique soup.
Yang Hu used an ice chisel to take out the frozen mutton in the ice, and then used a very strange tool to carve out layers of meat rolls.
Yang Bao was washing vegetables on the side, while Li Jian and Li Kang were washing the cow's urine, which is the tripe, back and forth.
Zhao Da and Zhao Er were chopping vegetables.
Xu Qingxiao sat at the table, making various condiments.
This scene silenced the spies who casually walked by outside the door.
Nima.
You've been doing it for a long time just to eat antique soup?
Is there something wrong? Doing this and that mysteriously just to eat this? Is it so outrageous?
Everyone was really speechless. In the past two days, Yang Hu and Yang Bao got up early in the morning and went to the market mysteriously, buying this and that. They almost caught the vendors and tortured them.
Ask if there is any correspondence or anything like that.
Some people have even begun to investigate the information of these vendors, but what they didn't expect was that Xu Qingxiao had been busy for three days just to eat antique soup.
All the spies were silent now, and all of them had ugly expressions on their faces.
I feel like I have been tricked by Xu Qingxiao in the past three days.
But they were angry, and everyone continued to stare. There was an order from above, but there was nothing they could do.
Inside the school.
Xu Qingxiao's voice gradually sounded.
"Wash your hairy belly clean, wash it gently, don't use so much force, and have you washed your hands?"
"The duck intestines should also be washed clean and have some flavor, then you can go back."
"Yang Hu, pinch off the rotten vegetable leaves and make each one clean. We are dealing with a big case, so don't be careless."
"By the way, Li Jian and Li Kang, you two go and get the duck blood. Remember to add some milk, not too much, just a little bit, so that the tenderness of the duck blood is just right."
Xu Qingxiao's voice sounded, giving orders to everyone.
Yang Hu and others nodded and answered with a smile, but their eyes were full of endless doubts.
They looked at the things in their hands and found it difficult to equate this with handling a case.
But there was no way, they would do whatever Xu Qingxiao said.
Not long after, all the dishes were served, and Xu Qingxiao also greeted everyone to start eating.
A plate of duck blood was put into the pot first, followed by various meaty dishes, and then a plate of mutton was added. Some smokeless charcoal was added to increase the heat.
Xu Qingxiao waited for a while, then took out the mutton and started to feast on it.
During this period, Xu Qingxiao will let everyone taste the different textures of the sauce, without any sense of urgency or crisis, which makes people feel even more weird.
"Sir, aren't we working on a case? Why are you still thinking about eating here?"
Yang Hu opened his mouth. He really couldn't help but ask. He didn't mean anything else. Xu Qingxiao said before that he was going to handle a big case. He had already sharpened his knife. When he went to bed the night before yesterday, he dreamed that he had solved the case and reached the pinnacle of his life.
But what I didn’t expect was that I had been so busy these past two days just to have a meal of antique soup?
To be honest, before today, he even thought that the things he bought were all needed for handling the case. Although it was weird, the weirder it was, the more interesting it seemed to him.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be for a meal of antique soup.
So he couldn't help it.
As soon as he said this, the other five people couldn't help but look at Xu Qingxiao, with doubts in their hearts like Yang Hu's.
At this time, Xu Qingxiao wiped the oil from her mouth and said seriously.
"You guys, your thinking is still solidified."
"Let me ask you, are the cases we handle big?"
Xu Qingxiao asked.
"Big." Everyone nodded and replied directly.
It involves 20 million taels of silver. Isn't that big? They handle cases in Nanyu Mansion. Any case that exceeds 1,000 taels of silver is considered a major case, let alone an additional ten thousand taels.
"Is this kind of case difficult to investigate?"
Xu Qingxiao asked again.
"Difficult." Everyone answered directly.
"Can such a difficult case be solved using common sense?"
Xu Qingxiao continued to ask, and at the same time she had a piece of hair on her belly.
"cannot."
Everyone seemed a little bit honest.
If this kind of case can be solved using common sense, then anyone can solve it. Can it become a mystery?
"Isn't that enough? Since we can't use common sense to answer it, we can only use extraordinary abilities."
"I told you that you don't understand. Anyway, we'll see in a month. But these days, whatever I say will be what you do, do you understand?"
When Xu Qingxiao said this, she stopped going into details, while Yang Hu and the other six nodded, and then they were thoughtful. After a while, Yang Bao spoke.
"I understand, you are tall, sir, you are really tall."
Yang Bao spoke, looking very serious.
"How do you understand? Tell me, I really don't understand."
Yang Bao's brother Yang Hu was really confused and couldn't help but ask.
"You still don't understand this? Just like this, like that, do you understand? Come on, looking at you like this, I know you don't understand, eat first, eat first, oh, how can you do things with Mr. Xu? You really don't have any brains.
.”
After Yang Bao said this, he was still a little emotional, then picked up a piece of meat and put it into the pot.
When everyone saw it, Zhao Da and Zhao Er immediately spoke out.
"I understand, I understand, that's how it is."
"Yes, yes, I understand, I understand."
The two of them also looked like they were suddenly enlightened, and then they became extremely excited, and their appetites increased when they started eating.
"No, what do you understand? What does it mean?"
Yang Hu really didn't understand, how could both of them understand it? He set his sights on Li Jian and Li Kang.
Feeling Yang Hu's gaze, Li Jian and Li Kang were a little embarrassed. To be honest, they didn't understand either.
But they all said they understood. If they said they didn't understand, wouldn't it look like they were useless? What would Master Xu think of him? So Li Kang coughed slightly, and then lowered his voice.
"Actually, it's just a few key points."
After saying this, he dipped a little water in the cup with his finger, and then left three dots.
Then he said seriously: "Do you understand?"
After saying that, the two of them lowered their heads and started eating. Everyone at the table was eating very happily, except Yang Hu who really couldn't eat. He really didn't understand.
What does it mean?
On the same day.
The spies from all the major forces went back to report everything they saw and heard today.
For a moment, all the forces were a little confused.
In the Wen Palace of the Great Wei Dynasty, a man stood bent over and told what he saw and heard today.
Chen Zhengru and Sun Jing'an were silent.
Xu Qingxiao has been busy for three days just to have a meal of antique soup. This is a bit outrageous.
But before the two of them could speak, the latter slowly spoke.
"Sir, when my subordinates happened to pass by outside the school, they discovered that they were keeping close contact with each other. Especially Yang Bao, Zhao Da, and Zhao were talking about something that they understood. As for Xu Qingxiao, she was sure of winning.
Look."
"My lord, please make your decision."
The latter added some details, but these words made Chen Zhengru and Sun Jing'an even more confused.
Eating antique soup? Working on a case? Still winning?
Chen Zhengru frowned. He was wondering what Xu Qingxiao was doing, and Sun Jing'an said, "Bring back a copy of all the things Xu Qingxiao bought in the past two days."
Sun Jing'an said this.
He couldn't think of what Xu Qingxiao was doing. Only by copying Xu Qingxiao's behavior could he try to guess. Otherwise, it would be impossible to guess with this information alone.
"Yes! I will do it now."
The latter left immediately, and at this time Chen Zhengru spoke.
"Sun Ru, do you understand?"
Chen Zhengru asked. He was a little curious and asked Sun Ru casually.
"I probably understand."
Hearing Chen Zhengru's question, Sun Jing'an was inexplicably embarrassed. He didn't know what Chen Zhengru meant, especially Chen Zhengru's expression, which seemed like Chen Zhengru had thought of something.
In order not to lose face, Sun Jing'an answered bravely.
"What is it?"
Chen Zhengru continued to ask, his eyes full of curiosity, because he really didn't understand what Xu Qingxiao was thinking.
"Well, how should I put it? It's a little complicated, but I should understand."
Sun Jing'an was stunned. He didn't expect Chen Zhengru to continue asking, so he could only continue to explain.
And at the same time.
In the Ministry of Punishment.
Zhang Jing, Feng Jianhua, and Li Yuan all fell into silence as they listened to their subordinates' report.
Especially Zhang Jing. He stood up and looked at the bright moon outside, his eyes full of contemplation.
After much thought, he didn't know what Xu Qingxiao was doing.
And the subordinates' voices also sounded.
"Master Shangshu, my subordinates heard clearly outside the door. Xu Qingxiao said that the case will be solved within a month, and the victory is guaranteed. He seems very confident."
He said this, which made the three of them even more confused.
Can you solve crimes by eating antique soup?
If nothing else, Xu Qingxiao should at least go out of the city, right? Go to Pingqiu Mansion to have a look? Or find a witness?
Even if the other person is a lunatic, why don't you just call him over and see him? Do you want to go through the motions?
Hiding at home for three days, just to make an antique soup? You have enough to eat and nothing to do, right?
But do you dare to say that the case will be solved?
What do you use to solve the case? Do you use Mao to solve the case?
But at this moment, Li Yuan's voice sounded.
"Master Shangshu, I really can't figure out what the hell Xu Qingxiao is doing, what on earth is he going to do?"
Li Yuan couldn't think of it and couldn't help mumbling to himself.
"Yeah, what on earth is Xu Qingxiao thinking about? This guy is a little weird."
After hearing this voice, Zhang Jing looked at the moonlight and said without any hesitation.
"Xu Qingxiao is really a great talent."
Zhang Jing opened his mouth and praised him for no reason.
As soon as these words were said, Li Yuan and Feng Jianhua's eyes suddenly showed surprise.
"Sir, you?"
As soon as they heard this, they knew what Zhang Jing knew.
However, Zhang Jing shook his head and said: "It can't be explained in words, it can only be understood. There are some things that you can guess if you can. It's useless if you can't guess."
Zhang Jing looked a little mysterious and said, after saying this, he continued: "Buy a copy of the things Xu Qingxiao bought in the past few days."
After saying this, Zhang Jing left.
After disappearing from the Criminal Department, Zhang Jing breathed a long sigh of relief.
He knew what Xu Qingxiao was thinking, but why did he praise Xu Qingxiao? It wasn't that he was full and had nothing to do, but that neither Li Yuan nor Feng Jianhua could guess what Xu Qingxiao was thinking.
As ministers themselves, they must ask themselves.
If you don’t know the answer yourself, wouldn’t it mean that you are just like them?
This was a matter of face between colleagues, so Zhang Jing had the courage to praise Xu Qingxiao. If Xu Qingxiao couldn't solve the case, the worst he could do was to say it again. I thought he had guessed it, but I didn't expect that the officer still overestimated Xu Qingxiao. It was really ridiculous.
Isn’t that enough?
If Xu Qingxiao could really solve the case, wouldn't his resourcefulness be reflected?
Anyway, no matter what, you won’t lose anything.
But, what is Xu Qingxiao thinking about? Zhang Jing is also a little depressed.
Inside the Duke's Mansion.
Duke An Guo's voice was very loud.
"Great talent, great talent, great talent, Xu Qingxiao is really a great talent."
Duke An Guo laughed, and his laughter stunned Li Bing.
Just eating an ancient soup is a great talent?
Dad, can we stop bragging like this?
Li Bing stood aside and really couldn't understand what Xu Qingxiao was doing, but his father praised him so much.
Suddenly Li Bing felt that there was something wrong with him or his father.
"Li Bing, you should learn from your brother and my nephew, who has the title of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment."
Duke An Guo praised almost shamelessly.
He didn't understand what the hell Xu Qingxiao was doing, but what he knew was that he praised Xu Qingxiao yesterday, and he had to continue to praise Xu Qingxiao today.
If you don't praise it, wouldn't it look like you've missed the mark?
As for whether my son can understand it, it’s none of my business? Anyway, a father can’t embarrass himself in front of his son.
"Yes, father, the child understands."
"However, the child is still a little stupid. What on earth is Xu Qingxiao doing?"
Li Bing nodded and then raised his doubts.
"madness!"
"It's really stupid."
After hearing this, Duke An Guo stood up immediately and shouted angrily.
Li Bing: "."
"Your brother is so talented that my father is too lazy to tell you. He asked someone to prepare some things for my father according to what nephew Xu bought in the past two days."
After An Guogong said this, he turned and left.
There was no point in staying, because he couldn't explain it clearly and simply didn't explain it at all.
Not only An Guogong, but other princes and princes also applauded.
Even on the second day, some extremely weird remarks began to circulate throughout the capital.
"Do you know? Yesterday, the Minister of Punishment praised Xu Qingxiao as a great talent, and I am afraid that the truth about the Pingqiu Mansion disaster relief case will really be revealed."
"Yes, yes, not only the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, but also Sun Jing'an and Sun Daru, who have been unhappy with Xu Qingxiao, also said that Xu Qingxiao is going to solve the case."
"Moreover, Duke An, Duke Qi, Duke Lu and others suddenly laughed out loud last night and praised Xu Qingxiao for his talent."
"I'm telling you, you must not spread the word. The sister of one of my brothers' friends has an unfathomable relationship with a subordinate of Xu Qingxiao. She said that Xu Qingxiao has mastered the key physical evidence in this case, which is the 20 million
The whereabouts of two pieces of silver."
"seriously?"
"It's true. I can testify. The sister of his brother's friend is the lover of one of my brothers. I can testify."
"Isn't this right? It's only been three days. Even though Xu Qingxiao is a genius, the problem is that solving the case in three days is a bit too fast, isn't it?"
Some people raised doubts and thought that solving the case in three days was a bit exaggerated, and they still had substantial evidence.
But soon, a rumor appeared and a response was given.
"Are you stupid? There is someone behind Xu Qingxiao's guidance on this matter."
"Do you know who this person is? The current emperor. Otherwise, why do you think this matter was brought up to overturn the case? Why did Xu Qingxiao dare to take it? It's really stupid."
As soon as this rumor came out, it was spread instantly. Almost all the people in the capital were talking about this matter, and they all thought that the reason why Xu Qingxiao was enjoying himself these three days was because His Majesty was giving him guidance from behind.
All the evidence has been given to Xu Qingxiao, and Xu Qingxiao only needs to wait a month and go through the motions honestly. When the time comes, it is time to arrest people and pursue the stolen goods.
Rumors are like this. Once spread, they spread throughout the capital in an instant.
Moreover, the people will only listen to what they want to hear. Although some people objected and thought that Xu Qingxiao was giving up on himself, no one in the court refuted the fact that Xu Qingxiao had the talent to solve the case.
Especially Sun Jing'an and Zhang Jing, they have a deep hatred for Xu Qingxiao.
If they all say that Xu Qingxiao is fine, then Xu Qingxiao is really fine.
That's it.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
During these seven days, Xu Qingxiao stayed in the school, almost never leaving, and Yang Hu and the other two were no longer shopping. Instead, they practiced martial arts in the school every day, and Xu Qingxiao came to give guidance.
The scenes in the school and every word Xu Qingxiao said would be conveyed to all the dignitaries that night.
But ten days have passed.
The rumors became more and more intense, and the people felt that Xu Qingxiao was so leisurely and confident that he was confident of winning.
Everyone in the court also felt this way for no reason. The people who were most annoyed and depressed were Sun Jing'an, Zhang Jing, and several other princes.
Sun Jing'an and Zhang Jing were really annoyed. They didn't know what Xu Qingxiao was going to do.
It’s been ten days and you still haven’t come out to do anything?
The princes and princes were also depressed. They could not figure out Xu Qingxiao's thoughts, nor could they guess Xu Qingxiao's intentions.
My son comes to ask me every day. If this continues, they won't be able to tell their lies. Wouldn't it look embarrassing?
That's it.
Fifteen days have passed.
These fifteen days have been great.
Xu Qingxiao came out and took a walk on time every day, saying hello to everyone she met. She also said that if she took a walk after dinner, she would live to be sixty-nine.
I went to the theater to watch a show when I had nothing to do, and I didn't look like I was going to investigate a case at all.
And the time limit is one month before His Majesty.
There are only five days left.
There are more and more spies outside the school.
And at this moment.
Kyoto of the Great Wei Dynasty.
In a secret room in a tower.
Three figures were sitting in the secret room.
The room was small and the atmosphere was very depressing. The three of them were wearing black cloaks and were silent.
After a long time, an old voice sounded.
"You two, what do you think about Xu Qingxiao taking over this case?"
This is the first sound.
Soon a new voice sounded, slightly younger.
"Xu Qingxiao took over the case. There is no serious problem. He is not qualified. It's just that I have been thinking about whether His Majesty was involved in it."
This is the second voice, full of curiosity.
"No."
The first voice answered directly and decisively.
"In that case, there's no need to worry."
The second voice answered again.
"But I'm always a little uneasy. I wonder whether I should just take action and eliminate Xu Qingxiao. Even if I take some risks, there is no need to worry. Xu Qingxiao is in the court and everyone is shouting for beating. If he is really dead, I believe no one will
To avenge him.”
The voice was slightly cold, making the room a little cold.
"No! Can't kill!"
The third voice sounded, very hoarse.
"If Xu Qingxiao is killed, His Majesty will truly investigate to the end."
"Just wait and see what happens."
"No matter how far we get, it's never too late."
The third voice was very hoarse, but when his voice fell, the other two stopped talking.
After a while, the three of them gradually left.
Just like that, in the blink of an eye, five days passed and the deadline arrived.
This day.
The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty and all the people in the capital became excited.
——
There will be more later, but it will be very late!
If you can, wait. You can't wait for readers to take a break.
