Zhang Yucong suddenly felt that it was ridiculous. Did the eldest lady of the Anyi Marquis Mansion think he was a fool? She actually asked him to tell everything in front of the eldest princess of Huayang.
He thought that Marquis Anyi had given birth to a smart daughter, but now it seems that she is just mediocre.
Zhang Yucong didn't want to pay attention to Miss Xu. In his opinion, Miss Xu was not worthy of talking to him. A fallen nobleman was not worthy of working for the Zhang family. Marquis An Yi could still pretend. The patriarch of the Xu clan knelt down and begged.
He took care of her, and even the Cao family was eager to give their daughter to Zhang He.
Zhang Yucong snorted coldly in his heart and looked at Princess Huayang: "Princess, everything tonight seems ridiculous to the minister. This Wang Yun is a repeat offender of the imperial court. He said some threatening words to the minister. He is just a prisoner, but he actually...
Dare to talk nonsense about guilt or innocence.
The female family members of the Marquis of Anyi's Mansion are even more ridiculous. They actually asked the minister to talk about what happened more than ten years ago. I don't know how Marquis Anyi taught his daughter. It is really immoral for a young lady in the cabinet to walk around, not to mention that she is not like her.
A daughter of a great family is not as good as even the female relatives of ordinary people. If I had a daughter like this..."
There was a look of disdain in Zhang Yucong's eyes, and he continued speaking vigorously: "If Marquis Anyi can't even control his daughter, the future of the Marquis Anyi's mansion will be really worrying. A minister who can't even control his family will be worried."
, how to gain a foothold in the court."
Princess Huayang's eyes flashed sternly: "I am also a female family member. What do you mean, Mr. Zhang, that I shouldn't appear here?"
"The eldest princess is naturally different," Zhang Yucong said. "When the former emperor was still alive, he often praised the eldest princess. When the new emperor ascended the throne, the eldest princess also had the merit of raising children."
Princess Huayang's expression suddenly changed when she heard about the merit of raising a child, but she quickly returned to normal: "I'm afraid Mr. Zhang has digressed. We are talking about this case. Who was burned to death in the fire beside the Bishui River?
You should know by heart. You already know that the Sun family, the Yan family and even the smuggling are related to this incident more than ten years ago. Wang Yunyou used this to make a big fuss, and the murderer escaped. Telling the truth can also allow the government to catch the murderer.
, but you still hide it, if another case really happens..."
"That has nothing to do with the Zhang family," Zhang Yucong said. "Even if the Zhang family is approached, Wei Chen is not afraid. The Zhang family offended too many people due to King Wei's rebellion more than ten years ago, and Wei Chen had already taken care of it at that time.
Be prepared, for the sake of Zhou Dynasty and the imperial court, the Zhang family is willing to shed blood even if it is a river. This is the loyalty of the Zhang family to the emperor."
Zhang Yucong spoke so impassionedly that if the emperor were here, he would probably be moved by his fisting heart again.
Xu Qinghuan always looked at Wang Yun. Wang Yun seemed to be admiring a piece of work. He stood there calmly, his eyes getting brighter, like a king looking at the rivers and mountains under his governance.
Xu Qinghuan became more and more certain that the whole case was not that simple. Maybe she had already figured out the entire case, but she still hadn't thought of the most critical part.
She turned her head and met Miss Wang's eyes. Her eyes were complicated, including fear, uncertainty and hesitation. Xu Qinghuan wanted to see clearly what she meant, but she lowered her head and held her skirt tightly.
.
"The person who was burned to death by the Bishui River more than ten years ago was the King of Wei who rebelled against the party. As for Nie Rong, the court had already decided that the Nie family and the Japanese died not far from the princess's courtyard. Some of these people wanted to report to the Zhang family
Revenge is not surprising," Zhang Yucong straightened his back, "I, Zhang Yucong, am not afraid of them either...just let them come!"
After Zhang Yucong finished speaking, Wang Yun suddenly laughed.
"Master Zhang, don't you think those people can hurt the Zhang family?" Xu Qinghuan said, "The Zhang family is powerful and has numerous nursing homes. Even if they want to take revenge, it will be very difficult for them."
Zhang Yucong was told what he was thinking, and he remained calm and said: "Princess, Zhang Zhong actually acted privately and caused today's trouble. I will never protect him. I will keep him here today, waiting for the court to interrogate him."
Zhang Yucong passed all the blame on Zhang Zhong, and now he is about to leave with a wave of his sleeves. Judging from the current evidence, Zhang Yucong cannot be imprisoned.
Princess Huayang narrowed her eyes, but catching Zhang Zhong was a big gain, which was equivalent to breaking Zhang Yucong's arm. The Zhang family had not suffered such a setback for a long time, and this was all the result of Miss Xu.
Princess Huayang went to see Xu Qinghuan, and saw that Xu Qinghuan's eyes were slightly distracted, and she still didn't know what she was thinking.
There is no need to spend any more time tonight. Princess Huayang stood up. The clerk will report to the emperor what happened here. The Zhang family is so lawless. The emperor must have made a clear decision in his heart. Moreover, the Zhang family has already informed Marquis Anyi.
The conclusion is that he and Wang Yun conspired together. Zhang Yucong refused to admit it here, but he would tell the truth when he got to the imperial court. From this point of view, the harvest tonight was not small.
"Let's go," Princess Huayang ordered Xu Qinghuan, "Master Zhang is right. Let him explain the case more than ten years ago and everything that happened tonight in front of the emperor!"
Zhang Yucong's face looked ugly. After all, he was caught.
Xu Qinghuan followed Princess Huayang out of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and then Zhang Yucong also walked away, leaving the officials of the Ministry of Punishment to deal with the aftermath.
The eldest princess Huayang got on the carriage, and Xu Qinghuan also sat next to the eldest princess.
"What's wrong?" Princess Huayang said, "You should be happy that there is progress in the case. What Zhang Yucong did today will make the emperor determined to investigate the case thoroughly. Your Anyi Marquis Mansion can also get away, but you can't
I want to sort out all the cases tonight."
"The eldest princess has seen Wang Yun's appearance," Xu Qinghuan suddenly said, "As long as I think of Wang Yun's eyes, I will inevitably feel a little worried in my heart."
Princess Huayang nodded: "However, I guess Wang Yun is just bluffing. If you don't notice anything, you may catch us off guard. But we all know, what can he do? Soon the court will
We will catch suspicious people everywhere, and the Zhang family will also take precautions, and you have already found clues..."
Princess Huayang's words made sense. Xu Qinghuan said, "What if there is someone behind Wang Yun?" She had to take over Wang Yun several times, so she couldn't be careless.
The eldest princess Huayang did not speak. Xu Qinghuan remembered Miss Wang's gaze. She stood up and saluted the eldest princess Huayang: "I have an unkind request. The eldest princess can arrange for me to meet Wang Yun's daughter.
"
Princess Huayang was a little surprised, but she quickly ordered the steward to make arrangements: "I have to go to the palace. It's not easy for a girl like you to stay out for too long, so go and come back as soon as possible."
…
Xu Qinghuan and Miss Wang stood face to face.
Neither of the two people spoke.
A few months ago, the two might have met at a banquet in the house, and might have sat down together to talk and laugh. However, because of Wang Yun's case, Miss Wang suddenly fell into the quagmire.
Xu Qinghuan spoke first: "Don't you have anything to say?"
Miss Wang lowered her head and said nothing.
The servant girl coughed and said, "Miss Xu, we can't delay for too long, otherwise the Jiaofang will blame us."
It seems that Miss Wang is not ready to speak anymore, Xu Qinghuan said: "Maybe this is the last time we meet, so please take care of yourself!"
It was Wang Yun who was guilty, not the teenage girl in front of her. Xu Qinghuan could still tell this. Since Miss Wang didn't want to say it, she couldn't force it.
"My mother said," Miss Wang's voice was a little hoarse, "We can't stay in the Jiaofang, we have to leave eventually. I asked my mother when we would leave, and my mother said I would know when the time comes. There will be a big movement.
Then my mother gave me a piece of porcelain and asked me to keep it properly, and said not to insult the family tradition."
When Miss Wang said this, her voice was trembling: "I'm very scared."
The "leave" Mrs. Wang said did not mean to escape, but to let her daughter commit suicide with her. What was the "big noise" she mentioned?
After finishing speaking, Miss Wang glanced at Xu Qinghuan: "That's all I know."
Xu Qinghuan's heart sank. Miss Wang confirmed her suspicion. She was right. Something big would happen.
