Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 828 Second son, I have long admired you!

Ever since Chi's mansion was confiscated and he was imprisoned in Dali Temple, Second Young Master Chi had cut off any contact with the outside world.

Because they were worried about colluding with each other, Chi Gelao, Chi Dagongzi, Chi Ergongzi and Chi Hong were all held in different cells. Not to mention passing news, it was not easy to even look at each other face to face.

Originally, Second Young Master Chi wanted to bribe the jailer, and wanted to see Mr. Chi Ge or Chi Hong, but he didn't expect the jailer of Dali Temple to be so stubborn, and he didn't like him at all, and even warned him that if he made any small moves, Let him have no good fruit to eat.

After trying several times, they all failed, so Second Young Master Chi gave up on this thought. Since this road doesn't work, he can go another way, and he can always achieve his goal.

However, the Second Young Master Chi still met Mr. Chi Ge once as he wished. At that time, Mr. Chi Ge was covered in blood and unconscious. The people in Dali Temple were worried that something might happen, so they asked Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Bai Meng called Mr. Chi Ge's three sons in turn to take a look at Mr. Chi Ge. Each of them stayed in front of Mr. Chi Ge for less than a cup of tea, and four jailers stared at him throughout the whole process. It is absolutely impossible to do something small, send a message or something.

But it was also because of that time that Second Young Master Chi saw the ruthlessness of the border army, which was completely different from the people in the yamen in Xijing. There was no nonsense, and he beat him as soon as he came up, and continued to beat him if he was not convinced, until he was convinced.

Originally, Second Young Master Chi thought that after his father and elder brother were interrogated, it would be his turn immediately, so he was already prepared and waiting, but he waited anxiously for several days, but there was no news at all. , as if the other party had forgotten himself.He thought carefully about what he had done in these years, and it seemed that he didn't have that much contact with his father and younger brother on the surface. If his elder brother had a strong bone, the people from the Zhenguo government and the imperial army would not bother him. .

Second Young Master Chi is not very worried about this time from the bottom of his heart. He thinks that he will turn the danger into a bargain. Even if the two men in the Zhen Guogong's mansion are ruthless and the commander of the imperial army is not a good person, but as long as there is no evidence to prove it, He is involved in the crimes committed by his father and third brother, and he will be fine.

Therefore, when he received the notice from the jailer to prepare him for interrogation, he was also very calm.

However, the calmness of Second Young Master Chi completely dissipated when he walked into the interrogation room and saw the gold brick Shen Cha was playing with. Blank, completely unaware that he walked to the seat with the same hands and feet.

Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and Song Qiyun, who was in charge of the interrogation, watched every move of Second Young Master Chi. The three of them looked at each other, and a mocking sneer appeared on their faces at the same time. It seemed that the golden brick had hit the spot. Second Young Master Chi's pain point, otherwise he wouldn't have reacted like this.

"Second Young Master Chi, look forward to it for a long time!"

Second Master Chi looked at the boy in front of him. He knew that this was His Majesty's younger brother, Song Qiyun who had just been promoted from county king to prince.

Although the prince of Li has been stationed at the border with the Shen family army all year round, he still has prestige in Xijing, including the two sitting behind, the famous Zhen Guogong and Zhen Guo General. He may not care about anyone, but he cannot ignore this. The three, they not only hold a lot of troops and power, but they are also the most trusted right-hand man of His Majesty today. Once you annoy them, the consequences will be disastrous.

Second Young Master Chi took a deep breath, he still cherished his life, and didn't want to become like his father, who was still lying unconscious on the bed.

"Xiaguan has met the prince!" Second Young Master Chi looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and glanced at the gold brick in Shen Cha's hand inadvertently, "I have met the Duke of Zhen and the General! I don't know if I will bring you here today. , is there anything that needs the cooperation of the lower officials?"

"As soon as you hear what the Second Young Master said, you will know that you are a happy person. I hope that the Second Young Master will do what he says, actively cooperate with our investigation, and don't break his promise!"

"This is natural, and the next official must know everything."

"Then, there are a few things that I want to verify with the Second Young Master." Song Qiyun smiled slightly at the Second Young Master Chi, "The first thing, the King once heard a rumor that more than half a year ago, the Second Young Master sold the Lost all the property in his hand, why?"

"My lord was joking. I'm a poor scholar. Where did he come from..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Song Qiyun pick up the whip on the table next to him, and waved it twice at himself. Suffering from flesh and blood, he changed his words in time, "The lower officials have sold all their property, but not all the shops are owned by the lower officials."

"Why did you sell them?" Song Qiyun asked, "Did something happen at home?"

"Something happened at that time, it was very serious." Second Master Chi followed Song Qiyun's words, "More than half a year ago, my father had a serious illness, which was very serious. The imperial doctors in the imperial hospital said Let us make preparations for the funeral, so as not to be in a panic." He glanced at Song Qiyun, "Actually, in recent years, my father's health has not been particularly good, and he has always been sick intermittently. I was more or less prepared, and discussed these matters when my father was in a good condition. My father said that if he failed, he would sell the shops at home. After the funeral, the property he left behind would be given to him. The three brothers share one point. My father also said that the third brother’s situation is special and he is young, so I will give him more. Both the elder brother and I have no objection to the father’s arrangement, so I sold all the shops , and replaced it with gold. But auspicious people have their own nature, and my father survived again. The gold is temporarily useless, but I am afraid of being stolen at home. My younger brother is smart and said to build a cellar and put If you mix gold in, you won't be afraid of being remembered."

"It turns out that the money from selling the shop turned into gold and was used to build the cellar, right?" Seeing Young Master Chi nodding, Song Qiyun sneered, and whipped the whip in his hand towards him.

Second Young Master Chi never expected that Song Qiyun was so unreasonable and hit someone so suddenly, he was a little dazed and wanted to dodge, but he was tied firmly to the chair and he couldn't dodge at all , can only clench the door and bear it.

"My lord, you..." When Song Qiyun had had enough and finally stopped, Second Young Master Chi recovered his breath and looked at Song Qiyun, "Why are you..."

"Why did you hit you, right?" Song Qiyun sneered, "Of course it's because the Second Young Master is dishonest and refuses to tell the truth!"

"No lower officials, lower officials dare not!"

"No? Don't you dare?" Song Qiyun slapped the Second Young Master a few more times, "Second Young Master, is your shop made of gold? What kind of shop can exchange so much gold? Also, since the shop is sold The money was exchanged for gold, so how did the 1 million taels stored in the Changsheng Bank come from? Where did the silver note issued by the Changsheng Bank go?”

After listening to Song Qiyun's words, Second Young Master Chi was completely dazed. He looked at Song Qiyun blankly, unable to think of how to refute.
