Qi Yunzhou was surprised and stood up quickly, making a show of leaving. Xia Zhang was not willing to let him go, so he immediately grabbed hold of him, but he did not dare to do anything serious and could only beg.
"Sir! Sir, please stay for a moment and listen to what I have to say."
After all, he managed to catch Qi Yunzhou, Xia Zhang said with a wry smile: "It was the governor who made the mistake and accidentally misunderstood the husband. The incident of the young master of the Lu family falling into the water was naturally not Dongchang's fault. The governor and Commander Lu have always been inseparable.
If you don't violate the river, how can you do what you did?"
Qi Yunzhou thought about it, Xia Zhang must have done a lot of bad things, but even so, he was definitely not brave enough to dare to touch anyone in the Jin Yiwei, especially the young master of the Lu family with such a special status.
Xia Zhang further explained: "Sir, please listen to what I have to say. This matter is a huge misunderstanding."
Then, Xia Zhang explained the matter from beginning to end. It turned out that since the news spread that Lu Hanjiang was going to return to Beijing, all the forces in Beijing were interested.
Some want to surrender, some want to test, and some are looking for information. During this period, anyone who can have a relationship with Commander Lu is extremely busy.
And this young master of the Lu family is even more important. Everyone knows that he is the commander's biological brother. In the eyes of the world, blood is thicker than water, so the weight of this biological brother is naturally much greater than that of outsiders.
Therefore, Lu Sicheng has recently received the attention of various forces, and Xia Zhang is one of them.
With the conscience of heaven and earth, Xia Zhang has never had any thoughts about this young master Lu. He just followed the crowd and sent people to keep an eye on him like the others.
After all, the existence of a brother is really special. If Bao Buqi follows him, he can dig out some big news about Mr. Lu, so all the forces are not willing to miss it.
But it happened that at this time, some daring guy pushed the young master down on the boat, and he was saved. Among the people who were watching that day, not one of them knew how to swim.
The spies sent out by Dongchang are all good people, and they are naturally good at water, but how the hell are they going to rescue people in such a thing, so even though all the informants around them are capable of saving people, no one dares to risk being exposed and go into the water.
As a result, a group of people watched helplessly as Young Master Lu lost half of his life. It was better now. Everyone still didn't know which hero pushed the young Master on that day, but the commander's anger was real.
Young Master Lu fell into the water in the morning. Before noon, the Jin Yiwei had secretly stirred up a storm. One by one, the informants of all the forces present were all invited to the Yamen for tea by the Jin Yiwei.
For ordinary people, Jin Yiwei can still be reasonable, knowing that these people don't have the courage, so Jin Yiwei comes to the door as a routine matter, and gives up after questioning.
But towards the East Factory, the Jinyiwei were not so friendly. There was the example of Zou Ji from the West Factory. Now that the Jinyiwei saw them castrating the dog, their attitude was quite bad.
No one doubts Jin Yiwei's ability, and Dongchang has indeed sent people. A few clues are enough for Jin Yiwei to come to ask for someone.
Originally, Xia Zhang planned to use his status as the admiral of Dongchang to suppress the other party's prestige. As a result, Deputy Qianhu Cui Yixiao came to the door to ask for someone but was blocked. In the afternoon, Wu Qianshi came to the door in person.
When they saw Wu Qiming bringing people here, everyone in Xia Zhang was dumbfounded. Now that Meng Yuan is missing and the two colleagues have seen each other, who doesn't know that under the commanding officer, Master Qianshi has the most reputation?
.
When Wu Qiming came to visit, it was equivalent to Commander Lu coming in person. However, because Master Lu's status was too important, if he came, he would probably involve Cao Yuan in the end.
If this matter comes to His Majesty, Cao Yuan will be scolded at most, and Lu Hanjiang will be fined a small salary. As for Xia Zhang, he reckons that if he can keep a complete body, it will be His Majesty's mercy.
There was nothing to say. Wu Qiming came to ask for him in person. Xia Zhang didn't dare to say a word and watched helplessly as the other party dragged away Xu Ping, the second stall driver of Dongchang, who was crying for his father and mother.
Even after the second-stall boss was taken away, Xia Zhang not only did not dare to feel resentful, but instead hurriedly began to separate the relationship immediately.
The place where Lu Sicheng fell into the water was a boat on the river. There was a mixture of fish and dragons there. Moreover, the scene was chaotic when he fell into the water. It is not the most terrible thing that the murderer cannot be caught. The terrible thing is that Jin Yiwei cannot catch anyone. If they want to find someone to take the blame, then Dongchang is simply
It's the perfect choice.
First of all, Dongchang and Jinyiwei had a feud. Secondly, it was unusual for people from Dongchang to appear there. As Qi Yunzhou said, the scope of Dongchang’s activities was within the forbidden inner palace. Since West Factory was gone, they still served as
There are many people who monitor the minister's house.
But in any case, Lu Sicheng was a ten-year-old child. In terms of identity, both his parents were white. In terms of family, although Lu Yannian was an official of the Ministry of Rites, he was also an uncle and nephew with a distant relationship.
The only reason why Dongchang appeared at the scene where Lu Sicheng fell into the water was probably Lu Hanjiang, his brother. If you think so, wouldn't this be Dongchang's motive?
At this time, Xia Zhang could no longer care about the life and death of Xu Ping, the second stall driver. All he could think about now was to take out himself.
Although he had once despised his godfather Cao Yuan's indecisiveness, when he faced the ferocious beast of Jin Yiwei, he realized that it was not that his godfather was too weak, but that his opponent was too strong.
Faced with the pressure of Jinyiwei, Xia Zhang now has no ambitions and only wants to survive, so these two days he was like an ant on a hot pot, looking for people to come up with ideas.
At this critical moment, Qi Yunzhou came into Xia Zhang's sight. The other party was the vice president of the academy. More importantly, Commander Lu had worshiped Luo Yuanjing as his disciple, and he and the other party could be regarded as brothers in the same discipline.
Xia Zhang knew very well that if he came to the door in person, he would be in trouble, so he planned to find someone who could speak well with Jin Yiwei to step in for him.
Originally, he thought about asking Yang Zhiyuan, the young master of the Yang family, to come forward, but who would have known that the boy was as slippery as a loach. Before the person he sent out could say anything, he pushed him four, five, six, and later it was simply
I would rather offend Dongchang than face anyone.
So now, all Xia Zhang can count on is Qi Yunzhou.
Qi Yunzhou was relieved to understand Xia Zhang's request. He smiled and excused himself as being helpless, but after Xia Zhang had said all kinds of things and promised a lot of benefits, he "helplessly" agreed.
After taking over the matter, Qi Yunzhou actually went to the Lu Mansion, but he did not intercede for Xia Zhang, but directly recited everything the other party said to Lu Hanjiang. As for how the commander would judge,
Then it's none of his business.
"I see," after listening to Qi Yunzhou's words, Lu Hanjiang nodded, and then said with some embarrassment: "Senior Brother Qi, this matter is difficult."
Qi Yunzhou asked curiously: "Did your Excellency really find something from the second stall driver of Dongchang?"
"That's not true," Lu Hanjiang spread his hands: "This matter should not be done by Dongchang, but I couldn't find any results for a while, and it was hard to explain to my uncle who always dragged me, so I ordered the brothers who were sent to prison
We, let Xu Pinghua plead guilty."
Qi Yunzhou was stunned for a moment, and then said seriously: "Your Excellency, you are wise. From what I see, it is almost certain that Dongchang did this."
