Red makeup Chitose

Chapter 39
Jin Ming smiled and nodded: "Minister also congratulate Mr. Xu on his reinstatement."

"Thank you very much! Hey, let's go in and talk." Xu Qi came forward to invite, but he didn't expect a bitter voice from beside him.

The two of them looked over and saw the young man with the cinnabar mole between his brows eagerly and shyly shaking his hands, begging Xu Qi eagerly.

"If I have done anything wrong, please tell me! Am I too self-esteemed and unworthy of your invitation? Or have I misbehaved and dirty your threshold? Please tell me the truth, and I can change it! As long as you Just don't prejudice your sister or the Jin family because of this!"

"Who is this?" Xu Qi froze, looking at Jin Mingwei in embarrassment.

In fact, he muttered to himself, no, how did this face become like this?When he first arrived, this young man was still icy-faced!

No wonder he didn't see Dong Lin, the two came together, Jin Ming smiled slightly, Dong Lin looked coldly at each other, it was obvious that the former was more like a guest, while the latter was more like a debt collector.

So he automatically ignored Donglin, thinking that only Jin Mingwei was visiting.

"His name is Dong Lin. He was taken into prison by Lu Xingshan together with me. He is also an apprentice of my Jin family. I am a person who Jin Mingwei has covered. Do you have any objections?" Jin Ming stared at Xu calmly. device.

I don't know if it was the influence of Donglin's words, but she also became dissatisfied with Xu Qi several times, how dare she underestimate her family's Donglin?

The trace of favor towards Xu Qi also quickly dissipated.

"By the way, I remembered." Xu Qi slapped his forehead, and bowed to Donglin apologetically, "I made a mistake, I'm sorry, please come in too, go in and talk."

When the three of them entered the official post, Xu Qi suddenly remembered something and rushed to the front. The moment before Jin Mingwei and Dong Lin stepped into the guest room, he rushed in first, and hurriedly swept the books in the room into the Nuan Pavilion.

Only then did Jin Mingwei and Dong Lin see clearly that there was only one word to describe the room: chaos.

There are books and volumes everywhere, as well as scattered pillows and thin blankets, and even half bags of corn.

"I was obsessed with reading. For a few days in a row, I just sat, ate, and slept in the mountains and seas of books... I laughed and laughed, no, no, no, I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything..." Xu Qi's hands and feet Using it together, while sweeping the scroll into the warm pavilion, he stumbled and explained.

Jin Mingwei was dumbfounded.She thought that an organ like Xu Qi should have bright and clean windows, and the tea is fragrant, but she didn't expect that when she saw it today, Fang sighed that she was sitting in a well and watching the sky.

"Both of you sit casually?" Xu Qi confirmed that the door of the Nuan Pavilion was closed, and smiled confidently.

Gululu, something rolled to Jin Mingwei's feet.

Jin Mingwei wanted to pretend not to see it, but the voice was too obvious and she couldn't pretend, so she could only smile: "Master Xu... still have half a bag of glutinous rice..."

"Chives." Xu Qi corrected with a little pride, and suddenly let out another low cry. He threw himself on the floor like a hungry tiger, stuffed the noodles into his sleeve, quickly opened the warm cabinet, and threw it inside, bang, kicked backwards Kick the door.

The whole set of movements is smooth and flowing, and people can't help but suspect that it's a kind of practice that makes perfect.

"Sit down!" Jin Mingwei and Xu Qi both laughed, tacitly deciding to ignore the scene just now.

The three of them sat down, said some polite words, and then turned to the main topic. Jin Mingwei took out a note and handed it to Xu Qi: "This is the list of Lu Xingshan who bought and sold good people."

On the list, there are children's names, places of origin, and close relatives.

Jin Mingwei was able to guess that the key evidence was hidden in the cockroach hole because of a question: Ah Fu was not dead in his previous life, so why did Liu Sanhuo kill Zheng Cui?

As for the list, which Jin Ming said included the birthplaces and close relatives of all the children, Liu Sanhuo must not have obtained it from Lu Xingshan, but he had found it secretly and one after another.

Because Lu Xingshan would not write down all the key information of these crimes on a piece of paper. If anyone got this piece of paper, he could directly sue him for death. He was not that stupid.

So it was only Liu Sanhuo who found out by himself in the past few years.

In her previous life, she heard that Zheng Cui went to Wanshan Temple to recuperate. She told Liu Sanhuo herself that she suspected that she had a nagging disease and didn't want to involve him. It is estimated that the real purpose was to prevent Liu Sanhuo from knowing what she was doing.

Although Liu Sanhuo was right at the time, he probably noticed some clues. It is estimated that he began to investigate Zheng Cui since then, and he had this list.But even if he knew this, he didn't kill Zheng Cui. The couple's decades of understanding and tolerance are unmatched by others.

The decisive turning point happened one day when a corpse was found on the outskirts of the city, a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, with a lame leg.

Thinking about it now, isn't it Zhou Jintao?It's just that in his previous life, Lu Xingshan didn't need to use Zhou Jintao to lure Jin Mingwei into the bait, and if Zhou Jintao wanted to run away, he just killed him.

In her previous life, Liu Sanhuo, who was still a gangster, collected Zhou Jintao's body, then went to Wanshan Temple and killed Zheng Cui.

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid Liu Sanhuo found Zheng Cui's route from Zhou Jintao's lame leg. He suspected that Zheng Cui not only participated in child trafficking, but also artificially disabled him. .

……

Thinking back to reality, Jin Mingwei only said that the list was obtained by accident, implying that the Moling Su family was there. Famous families are everywhere, so it is not difficult to get the list, and the Jin family has a good relationship with the Moling Su family, so no one will really confirm it.

Xu Qi really had no doubts.After receiving the list and just reading two lines, he frowned and trembled violently, unable to read any more: "Lu Xingshan, a beast, can't be cut into pieces!"

"But my lord, the accusations against Lu Xingshan from above are framing the common people, violating the will of the people, not selling good people." Jin Ming said quietly, "This is no longer avoiding the serious, but the above wanting him to die. Let him die for the real crime."

Xu Qi did not speak.

Jin Ming said lightly: "The reason why he is not allowed to die on real charges is because he sold good people and instigated good people to steal or beg for money. I guess all of the stolen money flowed into the pockets of higher-level officials? This group took him The number of officials who are beneficial, ten or dozens of people? Women don’t dare to guess, but there must be a large number of people involved, so the higher-ups decided to put the overall situation first and accept it as soon as it’s good.”

Xu Qi showed surprise on his face: "That's right... But even if Miss Jin understands, don't say it everywhere. Today you said this to me, treat it as the last time, and it will rot in your stomach from now on. After all, if you say it, you will face it." It’s not just one official, but dozens, or the entire officialdom..."

Jin Ming nodded slightly, she didn't want to be this hero in the past, although at a certain moment, a certain annoying face flashed across her mind: Lu Jin.

The group of officials who took advantage must have a guilty conscience, Lu Xingshan is dead, will they let Lu Jin go?
Jin Mingwei subconsciously popped up the answer, but she didn't want to worry about it, she wasn't a Bodhisattva, she didn't worry about it herself, she could think of this, and Lu Xingshan must have thought of it, leaving a way out for her son, and she didn't think about it. as impossible.

"Is Miss Jin's visit today just to give me this list?" Xu Qi's voice came.

"To be honest, after I got the list, I asked my father to contact the people on the list to see if anyone was willing to testify. However, except for one person, no one else was willing to stand up." Jin Mingwei said Come on, "but it's also within my expectation. Now that the danger is turned into good fortune, I think this list can only play its due value if it is handed over to the adults."

Jin Mingwei glanced at the scrolls all over the floor, Xu Qi's game is brilliant, Xu Qi is not easy.

He is a dignified censor who lives in the inn, and he made a special trip to wait for her to come, and to wait for the list in her hand.

And he has gone to great lengths to ensure that he gets this list, because he needs the list to complete other plans.

The scrolls all over the floor are to show her that he has this kind of eccentricity, that's why he didn't live in the official residence. After all, the official residence is a place that pays more attention, so as to dispel her doubts.

As for why Jin Mingwei was able to find out, it was because there were no dry rice grains, scattered pastry crumbs, and unwashed dishes after eating last night on the ground. In a word, it was too clean.

Jin Mingwei once had the honor to visit Jin Minglu's residence in the Examination Preparation Institute. His head hangs from the beam and the awl pierces his bones. It is really sitting, eating, and sleeping in the sea of ​​books, so she knows what this kind of room should be like.

……

Jin Ming turned serious and looked at Xu Qi: "The higher-ups let Lu Xingshan die for other crimes, but it doesn't mean that the higher-ups can erase the truth of his crimes, and he can be forgotten by history. I won't forget, and adults won't forget, then 43 children, 43 families, will never forget."

Xu Qi put away the list, and was about to answer, when Jin Mingwei approached him suddenly, his eyes became as cold as frost, piercing his heart like two daggers.

"Jian Yushi, the above words are my bottom line." Jin Mingwei changed his address, "I don't care what Yushi does with the list, but if Yushi forgets like they do, I don't mind doing it more than once. Meddlers."

Xu Qi smiled but said, "Miss Jin is a commoner, is she threatening the official?"

"I don't dare, I just hope that my lord will be worthy of the position, this time I will be the censor." Jin Ming's eyes flashed coldly, and the topic changed.

"If your lord can afford it, the list in your hand will be the only original copy in the world. If you can't afford it, those officials who have received money for charity will want to get it. "

"Original?" Xu Qi was startled, only to find that the list in his hand turned out to be a well-made rubbing copy.

He was able to find out Lu Xingshan's crimes, and the officials who received Lu Xingshan's money would naturally be more afraid that he would follow the clues and find them out.

At that time, if Xu Qi used the list to commit crimes, then the list could be reversed and become physical evidence of Xu Qi's crimes, and those officials would naturally hope to get it.

The way of officialdom has nothing to do with black and white. Today's Jin Mingwei only cares about who is her sword, and who is the fish under her sword.

After a long silence, Xu Qi sighed and bowed slightly to Jin Ming: "I will live up to my trust."

……

After seeing off Jin Mingwei and Dong Lin, Xu Qi sat there for a long time, thinking about many things, including choice, future, and determination.

　"A Thousand Years With Red Makeup" is not so much a political essay, but Ah Zhen thinks it is more like an officialdom essay.Different people have different opinions, enter the pit with the fate, thank you~
