Nine hundred and twentieth eight chapters wash the neck
The Cui family, which had been deserted and silent for a long time, finally became lively again on the first day of June.
Even compared with the glory of the Cui family two years ago, today's lively scene is really not enough, but the desertion is temporary. The promulgation of the edict gave everyone a glimmer of hope.
In the main hall of the Cui family, everyone exchanged cups and cups, and the host and guest were enjoying themselves, with smiles on their faces.
During the chat, someone looked around, put down his wine glass, and asked in surprise: "Why don't you see Mr. Chen and Mr. Zeng?"
Cui Qingming smiled and said: "Mr. Zeng is not feeling well. Mr. Chen has something important to do, but he can't come today."
"What's more important than this?"
"Mr. Chen seems to be a little abnormal in recent days..."
"Not only Mr. Chen, I think Mr. Zeng is even more abnormal. Today the two of them..."
…
Cui Qingming raised his hand and pressed it down, and said with a smile: "The two adults are my colleagues. They must be really in trouble. Let's ignore them for now. You all have to drink to your heart's content today..."
Cui Qingming said this, but the smile on his face was a little forced, and there was a deep gloom hidden in his eyes, which was not noticed by everyone.
"Master Qin, is there any news about Qin Xian's nephew..." Cui Qingming didn't want to talk about the matter anymore, and someone changed the topic at the right time.
A trace of anger appeared on Qin Yan's face, and he said: "This traitor has gone to who knows where, and he didn't even bring any news to his family..."
"Hey, Mr. Qin, we are all our own people here, so you don't have to be secretive..."
"Yes, this is not a serious case. There is no need for my nephew to hide, but it makes things more complicated..."
Qin Yan had a complicated expression on his face, "To be honest with you, I really don't know where that traitor has gone..."
"Everyone knows this matter well. Master Qin, this is not right..."
Qin Yan shook his head and stopped arguing. He turned to look at Cui Qingming and said, "Your Majesty handed over that case to Li Yi. I'm worried..."
Cui Qingming picked up the wine glass, smiled nonchalantly, and said, "So what if I leave it to him. Not to mention that we have already dealt with this case from beginning to end. Even if he finds out, what will happen?"
…
One month is neither short nor long, but it is still not enough to investigate a case where no clues can be found through formal channels.
Li Yi does not think he is more powerful than Bao Gong. In fact, in terms of normal investigation, he is not as good as Liu Yishou. On the surface, Liu Yishou is being investigated by Dali Temple, but secretly he has been collecting evidence. Li Yi himself is
Nothing much to do.
For more than half a month, it has been nothing more than teaching Miss Liu Er to read, playing with Tsundere Lolita and Yong Ning, accompanying Ruyi... sleeping with the little one, and often going to Zui Mo Ruoqing's place to sit, that's all...
…
During these days, the case was pending, and Mr. Xu had a strong opinion of him. He had a weird temperament and rarely cared about anything, but if it was something he cared about, he would not let it go so easily.
"Ten days, wait another ten days." When Li Yi went out, he repeatedly promised him that if there is no result within ten days, he will use his own method to solve the matter.
In Chenlu Hall, the eldest princess who has just gone to court has not yet come to change her court clothes.
She looked at Li Yi, and after a moment, she said slowly: "Don't continue investigating the case that my father asked you to investigate."
Li Yi didn't speak, just looked at him quietly, waiting for her to explain.
"Liu Yishou has been secretly investigating this case for more than half a month." Li Mingzhu poured him a cup of tea, sat down and said, "The Cui family, the Qin family, and nearly one-third of the dignitaries in Kyoto are involved. Cui
The reason why the family has done so many things and is still confident is because if something happens to the Cui family, all these people will be dragged into the water..."
"There are too many people involved in this case. This is an extremely huge force. Once they counterattack, it will cause great turmoil and affect the entire Kyoto and even the country."
Li Yi took a sip of tea and said, "Then don't give them a chance to counterattack."
Li Mingzhu shook his head and said: "It's impossible. As long as you attack one family, the rest of the people will immediately unite. You alone, even with me, can't resist it..."
She looked out the window and said a little tiredly: "This Kyoto is rotten from the root..."
"It doesn't matter if the roots are rotten. Just dig them out. You can't give up..." Li Yi smiled, turned around and left without saying anything more.
Li Mingzhu walked out of the door quickly: "We will try to find a solution for this matter, but don't act rashly..."
Li Yi waved his hand, "I know..."
When he walked out of the palace gate and was about to get into the carriage, a smiling voice came from behind.
"Isn't this the famous Li County Marquis?" A middle-aged man came out of the palace and asked with a smile: "I heard that your Majesty handed over a serious case to Li County Marquis for a period of one month, and now it is about to happen.
I’m here, I wonder how Hou Cha’s situation in Li County is going?”
Li Yi turned around, looked at the current head of the Cui family, smiled, and said, "Come on, Master Cui will probably have to make preparations early."
Cui Qingming chuckled and said, "You are investigating your case. What preparations should I make?"
Li Yi got on the carriage and lowered the curtain, and reminded him: "Master Cui, you might as well wash your neck more when you take a bath next time. It's best to wash it a little bit clean..."
Cui Qingming was stunned for a moment. When the carriage was far away, he came back to his senses, touched his neck and asked, "What does he mean?"
The servant behind him shook his head. Cui Qingming watched the carriage disappear completely, his face darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "I don't know what is good, but I want to see how long you can continue to be arrogant!"
Qin family.
Qin Yan looked at the drunken fifth master of the Qin family who came in from the outside. His gloomy face became even more ugly, and he said angrily: "Look at you, you are drinking all day long. You know what people outside are talking about you."
, how are you talking about our Qin family?"
Qin He looked up at him and asked, "Isn't this bad?"
Qin Yan's face became even more angry, "Don't you know what you were like before and what you are like now?"
Qin He sighed, looked up at Qin Yan, and asked, "If I become what I used to be, I should be the eldest brother who should be worried, right?"
"you……"
Looking at his retreating figure, Qin Yan's face was startled, and after a moment, it became cloudy and uncertain.
Although every time I see him looking like this useless person, I can't help but want to scold him, but I feel in my heart that his appearance is much better than before. At least, he will not let him do it again.
Feeling the crisis that the entire Qin family is out of his control...
After a while, he suppressed these thoughts in his heart, looked back, and murmured: "It's been almost a month, where has this traitor gone?"
"It's been almost a month..." In another courtyard of the Qin family, the fifth master of the Qin family washed his face and the drunkenness disappeared from his face.
Wu Er stood aside with a square scarf on the ground and asked curiously: "Fifth Master, why is it almost a month?"
"The deadline for Li County Marquis to investigate the case is coming soon." The fifth master of the Qin family took the kerchief, wiped his face, threw the kerchief aside, looked at Wu Er and said, "We are running out of time, take me to see him
