The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 688

Dai Zhou can't afford to touch this bad luck, so it is the best policy to push the case to the Shenhou Mansion. In this way, no one will be offended. The Marquis of Dongshan has a good relationship with the King of Wu, so the investigation of the case will not offend the King of Wu. As for offending the Zheng family, offending the officials, and offending His Majesty, it is not in Dai Zhou's consideration. According to Fucha, although Dali Temple has a reputation for cooperation, but in the end when it came to something really happened in the court, Dali Temple came out to explain that it had nothing to do with him, and then just stood aside and watched the show coldly.

As for Xuan Shijing, His Majesty has been taking care of him anyway, hasn't he?There is nothing to lose.

In Dai Zhou's eyes, this is the most appropriate method. In a case involving a lot, no one loses in the end. This is a win-win situation.

Dongshanhou offended the Zheng family, even without this case, the relationship between the Zheng family and the Hou's mansion would have been settled, so this matter did not change the relationship between the Zheng family and the Hou's mansion.

"Jin Yiwei has found some news, but it's just dispensable. You can find it by just asking around on the streets of Chang'an City. I'm afraid it's useless for this case. There's one thing that officials don't understand. , I want to ask Lord Dai." Xuan Shijing looked at Dai Zhou and said.

"Just ask Xuanhou." Dai Zhou listened to Xuan Shijing's words with great interest.

"What I'm curious about is that up to now, I don't know who made the cheating in Chunwei. Does the person who submitted the pass have evidence to prove that the scholars who took the Chunwei exam cheated? If there is no evidence, How can he assert that someone cheated in the Chunwei exam?" Xuan Shijing stared at Dai Zhou closely, and what he said hit the nail on the head.

Dali Temple is busy on the surface, and the Shenhou Mansion is busy both in the open and in the dark, but until now, Xuan Shijing still doesn't know who instigated this incident. If he knows the person who instigated this incident, I'm afraid it will be much easier to solve this case. It's impossible for Dai Zhou not to think of this truth, but if he thought of it, why didn't he tell Xuan Shijing?
"This..." Hearing Xuan Shijing raised this question, Dai Zhou faltered between words.

"Why, is it possible that Master Dai has something to hide?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"This, to be honest, Xuanhou, I don't know the person who gave the memorial. When I learned the news from His Majesty, Your Majesty never mentioned it to me." Dai Zhou stroked his beard. Said.

"I haven't mentioned it, so has Lord Dai asked His Majesty?" Xuan Shijing continued to ask.

"This..." Dai Zhou was asked by Xuan Shijing, and he pondered, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.

Dai Zhou would like to ask, but when His Majesty Li Er summoned Dai Zhou in Ganlu Hall, his face was as dark as the bottom of a big cooking pot in the kitchen at home, so Dai Zhou didn't dare to say more, isn't it just to investigate the case? , the old line of Dali Temple, and now there is a Shenhou Mansion, let's take a step and look at it.

"It seems that my lord really doesn't know. If the person who knew about this case could have saved a lot of time by investigating this case." Xuan Shijing shook his head and said with regret: "No As for the current situation, I don’t know where to start.”

Dai Zhou nodded in agreement: "Yes, when I was talking about this case with His Majesty in Ganlu Hall, His Majesty's face was very bad. We, as courtiers, can't ask more questions, that's all we can do. Now It's been a long time, if there is no clue about this case, I'm afraid we won't be able to explain it."

Dai Zhou's words are already reminding Xuan Shijing that Jin Yiwei is coming and going in and out of Shenhou Mansion, you are in charge, if you don't say any useful news, it will definitely not be the two of us who will make it through, but only you The Shenhou Mansion family.

Xuan Shijing lowered his head and smiled, then raised his head and said, "Since Mr. Dai wants to know so much, I will tell you what Jin Yiwei found out, and you will also help the staff."

Fang Yiai and Marshal Zhao on the other side were stunned when they heard this, and then looked at Xuan Shijing with doubts in their eyes, wondering what Xuan Shijing's idea was, could it be that they really wanted to find Jin Yiwei Can't say it all?
"I would like to hear the details." Seeing that Xuan Shijing was about to share what Jin Yiwei had found, Dai Zhou also showed a smile on his face.

"This case involved a lot of Jinshi, so Jin Yiwei conducted investigations on these Jinshi's life experience, and whether they had offended anyone in Chang'an. This investigation really found out something." Xuan Shi Jing laughed.

Since Dai Zhou wants to ask, just come up with the final plan to take the blame and tell Dai Zhou. If Dai Zhou wants to fight, let Dai Zhou and the Zheng family fight against each other.

"Oh? What did Xuanhou find out?" Dai Zhou looked at Xuan Shijing curiously, his eyes full of inquiry.

"After the palace examination, His Highness held a banquet in the imperial garden of the palace. During the banquet, I found that there seemed to be an ordinary relationship between the head of the Zheng family and Zheng An Jinshi, the top candidate in the palace examination handpicked by His Highness, but in the end the entire banquet After coming down, the atmosphere between the two was extremely deserted, the head of the Zheng family seemed to be a little angry with Zheng An, and Zheng An didn't like the members of the Zheng family very much." Xuan Shijing said: "That's why I am very curious. , the Zheng family is one of the five surnames and seven clans, and Zheng An, judging by his clothes, is nothing more than a poor scholar. But both of them have the surname Zheng, so it is inevitable that people will have some fantasies."

"Oh? What Xuanhou means is that Jin Yiwei checked the Zheng family and Zheng An?" Dai Zhou asked.

Xuan Shijing nodded, and responded: "That's right, and according to the news of Jin Yiwei's return, the Zheng family is indeed very suspicious."

"Why do you say that?" Dai Zhou was puzzled.

"Then Zheng An, the relationship between Zheng An and the head of the Zheng family is father and son." Xuan Shijing smiled and said: "But whose father and son will look like Stranger Things, and the news that Jin Yiwei came back from the investigation is not unusual. , that Zheng An's mother is not a big shot, more than 30 years ago, the head of the Zheng family was just a dandy, and he got drunk and raped a girl in the house overnight, and that's how Zheng An, Zheng An's mother Although she has no status, Zheng An is indeed the eldest son of the Zheng family. The former mistress of the Zheng family had just married into the Zheng family at that time, and had never had anything to do. With such a knot in her heart, although the child she gave birth to later will still be the eldest son of the Zheng family, after all, there is someone like Zheng An around."
