T-shaped Volume Chapter 14 Hidden Killing, Dark Wind
"Are you going to sleep?" Feng Ziying looked at Zicuckoo who came out and asked in a low voice.
"Asleep." Zijuan bit her lip and said, "Uncle, the girl has not slept well these past few nights. She wakes up at the slightest movement, and she also has nightmares..."
Feng Ziying sighed lightly.
The thirteen-year-old girl may soon be faced with the situation of losing her parents and becoming an orphan. In the next few years, she may have to continue to live in the Jia family, and the situation has also changed. She no longer has anything to rely on, which is very important to herself.
For Daiyu, who is delicate and sensitive, it may be even more difficult to accept.
If she couldn't have someone to rely on, I'm afraid Lin Yatou really wouldn't be able to survive. In the original book "Dream of Red Mansions", Daiyu's ability to survive was due to her stable relationship with Jia Baoyu, which made her think that she could rely on her for life. But when
After this dream was disillusioned, it immediately turned into a meteor and perished in this world that deceived her.
Of course Feng Ziying would not allow this to happen. He didn't know what Lin Ruhai's fate would be, but he wanted to firmly control Lin Daiyu's fate.
He had no way of knowing whether Lin Ruhai was really sick or for other reasons. Only when he arrived in Yangzhou did he know that if he was really sick, it would be a disease that could not be cured by medicines and medicines, and the Buddha would save the destined person from life to death.
If it was something else, Feng Ziying could think about it.
Considering the current status of the Supreme Emperor and Emperor Yonglong's wisdom, if Lin Ruhai really had a problem, Emperor Yonglong would not touch it, but would wait until the Supreme Emperor Bintian came before taking action. How could he come to stir up trouble at this time?
Emperor Yonglong was not an impatient person.
But why did Zhao Wenzhao say that there were people from the Beizhen Fusi, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and even the Ministry of Punishment in Yangzhou?
Zhao Wenzhao wanted to sell this favor to Feng Ziying, no matter what the reason was for him to reveal such information to himself.
"Uncle, if something unexpected happens to Mr. Lin,..." Zijuan Crescent Moon looked at Feng Ziying, her lips had been bitten with deep marks.
"Don't worry, I will take care of everything." Feng Ziying looked at this loyal girl and waved her hand, "No matter what happens in the future, your girl will be taken care of by me. I have already said hello to Brother Lian..."
"Ah?" Zijuan was surprised, "What did the uncle and Mr. Lian say?"
"It doesn't matter what you say. I just want to say one thing. Just take good care of your girl. Let her not be too sad about spring and autumn. She can feel more relaxed and face everything calmly. As long as she is healthy,
Everything else is mine!" Feng Ziying frowned.
Zicuckoo also realized that she had overstepped a bit and asked questions that she shouldn't have asked. She nodded quickly: "As long as the uncle has these words, the girl should feel relieved."
"Well, when we arrive in Yangzhou, I will go to visit Mr. Lin with Brother Lian. Well, for the specific situation, we can only take a step and see what happens." Feng Ziying mused: "If something really happens, I will also find a way to stay in Yangzhou longer.
How many days."
Jia Lian accompanied Feng Ziying out of the middle cabin.
He seemed to feel something was wrong. Feng Ziying's nervousness and solemnity made him uncomfortable. Especially after Feng Ziying got off the boat in Xuzhou and disappeared for two hours, Feng Ziying's attitude became a little erratic.
.
"Ziying, what's wrong?" Although this was not the first time Jia Lian was on a business trip, he originally thought he was just escorting Sister Lin to Yangzhou. If Uncle Lin was fine, there was no need to say more. If he died unfortunately,
Then we must assist Sister Lin in handling Uncle Lin's funeral, and we must also deal with the Lin family's inheritance.
He had discussed this matter with Feng Ziying before and felt that it was nothing more than that.
Lin Ruhai was from a single generation, and those distant relatives who were beyond his reach had nothing to do with him. The only problem was his two concubines.
If you don't want to remarry, then the Jia family has nothing to do with raising these two concubines for Lin Ruhai. Anyway, there are no heirs, so they are just raising them. If you want to leave and find another way out, that's okay, just send a dowry.
That's right, this is true for concubines who have no heirs.
Originally thought it was a relatively simple matter, Jia Lian didn't think there was anything worth it, and Feng Ziying became serious. Even he could handle this matter easily, not to mention that if Lin Ruhai was still there, he could still discuss it with Lin Ruhai.
.
Having considered the worst case scenario, Jia Lian couldn't figure out what else could make Feng Ziying feel solemn.
Feng Ziying shook her head.
It was not easy for Zhao Wenzhao to reveal such news to him. It was hard to say whether someone had instructed him to do so.
But the situation revealed still made him a little wary.
It seems that Lin Ruhai, the salt censor of the Lianghuai River, is staring at a lot of people. Is he staring at his position, or at the salt and silver in his hands, or even at the many unknown things he knew or mastered before.
Feng Ziying is not sure about things that are known to others.
Naturally, there is no way to talk about this with Jia Lian. Talking about it will only make Jia Lian fearful and nervous, which is meaningless and will not help.
"It's nothing, I'm just worried that Sister Lin can't accept the reality, so she's a little worried."
Feng Ziying's explanation did not satisfy Jia Lian, but the other party was obviously unwilling to say anything, and Jia Lian was helpless.
"Ziying, don't think that your second brother is a fool. There must be something going on with Mr. Lin that makes you worried. But if you don't say it, your second brother won't ask. The second brother is here because of the arrangements of the government.
You are responsible for handling sister Lin’s family affairs, but since you have made up your mind to marry sister Lin in the future, I am afraid this matter cannot be said to have nothing to do with you. If there is any trouble or obstruction, you cannot stand idly by."
Feng Ziying was shocked by Jia Lian's words. How could Jia Lian suddenly become so shrewd? He actually knew that he was in trouble, and even "blackmailed" herself with the fact that he would go to Sister Lin in the future.
.
"Second brother Lian, why did I ever say that I would just sit back and do nothing? But this time I came to Jiangnan for business. How long I want to stay in Yangzhou depends on Master Cui's wishes, but I will definitely do my best to help you.
Brother Lian, there is no need to worry." Feng Ziying laughed.
*********
Nanjing Jinling Prefecture.
Zhen Mansion.
"Is there any news about Lin Ruhai?" Zhen Yingjia asked in a deep voice with a tired face, lying on the easy chair, putting his hand on his forehead.
"Not yet. The people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate have gone to Suzhou. I don't know what they are doing, but the people from Long Jinwei are still in Yangzhou..." The man in black with a strong face hesitated for a moment and stopped talking.
"Just say what you have to say, why are you hesitating?" Zhen Yingjia said impatiently.
"It is said that the Ministry of Punishment has also sent personnel down." The man in black lowered his head.
"The Punishment Department?" Zhen Yingjia was confused, "Which Punishment Department? The Nanjing Punishment Department or the Capital Punishment Department?"
"The Criminal Department of the Capital." The man in black's voice was a little more solemn.
"The Capital Punishment Department?!" Zhen Yingjia sat up straight, "Why did the Capital Punishment Department send someone down? Why? Didn't the Nanjing Punishment Department respond?"
The Great Zhou Dynasty followed the Qian Ming Dynasty and prohibited cross-examination proceedings, which means that the cases that the Ministry of Punishment intervenes must be cases that have been tried and dealt with by the provinces directly under the Central Government. The Six Ministries in Nanjing have independent administrative power over the governments of the Southern Zhili Province, which is reflected in the criminal prosecution.
The Capital Criminal Department shall not intervene in criminal lawsuits and cases in prefectures and prefectures in Southern Zhili unless they are handled by the Nanjing Criminal Department.
"I'm afraid it's the illicit salt case in Songjiang Prefecture last year." The man in black swallowed with some difficulty and lowered his head even further.
"Huh? Which one?" Zhen Yingjia didn't react for a while, but looking at the ugly face of the man in black, he suddenly reacted, and his voice suddenly became anxious, "Aren't everyone dead? Is there any problem?"
"Normally, everyone is dead, but one person fell into the water and his body has never been seen. There is also a family member of the deceased who has been making a fuss because his family is a big family, and one of his cousins has passed the examination.
I support you from behind, so I’m going to throw a tantrum here..."
Zhen Yingjia's face suddenly became frighteningly gloomy. He took a few deep breaths and then realized that he shouldn't panic. If he panicked, others might be upset. After calming down, he slowed down and said, "
It’s not a big deal. Even if the man is not dead, he is just running outside and doesn’t know what’s going on inside. How many degrees are there? Huh, Juren. I really thought that if you take the Juren exam, you can do whatever you want. I will talk to the Ministry of Etiquette.
Say hello and ask someone to warn him..."
There was already a layer of sweat on the back of the man in black. Hearing what Zhen Yingjia said, he calmed down a little, "Then the people from the Criminal Department of the capital..."
"Ignore them for the time being. The Capital Criminal Department wants to investigate, and the Nanjing Criminal Department must provide everything. This is our territory, and it is not their turn to show off their teeth. In addition, people from the Capital frequently go south during this period, and the imperial court is trying to open the sea."
This incident disturbed the whole Jiangnan."
Zhen Yingjia sneered, caressed and shouted, with a hint of evil on her face.
"But you have to arrange for someone to keep an eye on Lin Ruhai. Long Jinwei's group is not easy to serve. If it really doesn't work, I will find people from the capital to greet them, but it's not possible right now..."
Finally he breathed a sigh of relief and the man in black calmed down, "Lin Ruhai, I sent people to remind him twice, but he ignored it, but I guess he should understand what we mean, and the capital should also have given him instructions.
So he shouldn’t dare to…”
Zhen Yingjia thought for a while and then said slowly: "Don't touch him again for the time being. He is seriously ill now, and the capital has also sent his only daughter back for a visit. I guess even if he is determined to die,
I dare not ignore his legitimate daughter, this is a good opportunity..."
The man in black didn't quite understand what Zhen Yingjia was talking about, but he knew enough not to ask.
Zhen Yingjia raised her head, thought silently for a while, and then said again: "Where are those Japanese ninjas now? Arrange for them to come over immediately for me. If there is any danger, you can go and do it yourself."
