A little weak chicken came to Dali Temple

Chapter 102 102 Husband and wife case (4)

After all, I didn’t eat puffer fish. After having a simple dinner in a luxurious restaurant, everyone went to Zhizhou Mansion. Officers and soldiers were raiding his house, and boxes and boxes of money were being moved out. Fortunately, it was not at night. It can be surrounded by ordinary people into an iron bucket.

Maybe this is why Pei Shaoqing ransacked the house at night!If the common people know that their parents and officials are so greedy, they will probably lose confidence in the court and the emperor!
Yeats secretly glanced at Pei Jingning. At this moment, he was handsome and stern, and he was awe-inspiring.

This is what he should look like!

Mr. Zheng was busy with the supervision of Yujiying. When he saw his master coming, he hurried forward, "My lord, Zhizhou Lu has been arrested, and all his family members are being imprisoned in Yangzhou Prison. The newly appointed Zhizhou has arrived. Wait a minute." I will go to the Yamen to take office."

It is said that in the past two days alone, the family members of the rich businessman have obtained nearly one million taels of silver from the prison. Lu Zhizhou has been in Yangzhou for nearly ten years, so this silver... is almost in tens of millions!
Looks like tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Of course Yeats didn't count the money, Pei Jingning took Yeats to nowhere.

Outside the car was cold and windy, but inside the car was warm like spring, Yeats was drowsy and wanted to yawn, but he was embarrassed, so he held it down tightly, the tears came out, rubbed, his whole eyes were red, with grievance Like a little white rabbit.

Pei Jingning's eyes moved, "Sit down!"

Yeats, who was dozing off, woke up suddenly, and quickly waved his hand, "Just sit here, it's very comfortable here."

Pei Jingning raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked silently with his eyes.

His sword eyebrows and stars are really good-looking, Yeats couldn't help but take a second look, but he didn't want to sit beside him, it's really different between men and women, and subordinates are different, so he had to find an excuse: "My legs are numb!"

Pei Jingning looked down slightly.

What look?
Yeats shrank his legs behind the stool in fright.

Pei Jingning's raised eyebrows never fell. Is this called leg numbness?
Yeats was so embarrassed that he was able to pick out three rooms and one living room, so he had to change the subject, "My lord, what was the case you were talking about last year? Did you arrest Lu Zhizhou based on this case?"

Pei Jingning stopped teasing Master Ye and let her go.

When he was talking about the business, his face turned slightly cold: "Last autumn, when the Songjiang Mansion transported a few shipments of cotton and passed through Yangzhou to reach the tip, all the cotton on board disappeared. This is the cotton to be sent to the border to keep out the cold, and it has a lot to do with it.

At that time, the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture personally went to Yangzhou to investigate the case, and found that several boats of cotton had been stolen by Lu Zhizhou's concubine's younger brother. . "

"Then the prefect of Songjiang didn't report the case?"

"Of course he wants to report to the police." Pei Jingning said, "It's just that he was threatened before handing it over. In order to save the lives of the whole family, he had no choice but to swallow the matter."

Yeats didn't feel well, "It stands to reason that we lost a few boats of cotton, and the prefect of Songjiang can ship a few more to make up for it. There's no need to go down to Yangzhou and make it so embarrassing..."

Pei Jingning smiled.

"Is there something else in the cotton?"

"Master Ye is really smart."

Why do you feel like a child, Yeats was a little embarrassed, "Is there money hidden in it?"

Pei Jingning nodded, "I plan to bribe some officials of the household department with money."

"How did the younger brother of Yangzhou prefect's concubine know?"

He said faintly: "Sometimes people in Youzhou may also know about Lingnan government offices."

Yeats understood that the upper echelons have their own information chain for official career and business, not to mention that Songjiang is so close to Yangzhou!

Yeats asked, "According to my lord, the case is very clear. As long as the concubine's younger brother is caught, the case can be verified. Why wait until this year?"

Pei Jingning smiled and said nothing.

The two looked at each other.

Yeats suddenly understood, "Your Excellency was appointed as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple at the beginning of this year. The court has been waiting for a suitable opportunity to uproot Lu Zhizhou, right?"

Pei Jingning really wanted to reach out and touch someone's head, to express the joy and joy in his heart at the moment, so he moved his fingers twice on his leg, but gave up.

His Lord Ye seems to be very shy and... very late with him...

Suddenly, the joyful Pei Shaoqing suddenly became worried, when will Mr. Ye get enlightened!

The carriage swayed, and Mr. Ye, who didn't know when he would be able to wake up, fell asleep.

That night, she slept in the carriage all night, and when she opened her eyes, she did not find Pei Jingning, but Mingzhu and Zhuzhu.

"Master Ye, you're awake!"

Yeats lifted the thick curtain of the carriage, "This is..." He looked outside, "Yangzhou government office?"

"Yes, Lord Ye." Mingzhu rubbed Ye Zhi's numb legs, "Master Ye, the wash water is ready, please get out of the carriage."

"What about your excellency?" Yeats asked.

Mingzhu said, "Master interrogated Lu Zhizhou all night."

"..." Isn't that very tiring, Yeats thought for a while, and quickly jumped off the carriage.

The two of Mingzhu guided her to wash up, and when she was about to find Pei Jingning, he had already stood behind her at some point, wearing a brocade robe of a dark blue color, which was obviously an old-fashioned color, and it was worn on him, with a tall body and a picturesque appearance , Indescribably handsome and luxurious.

Yeats hurriedly saluted, "My lord—"

Mr. Pei has a beautiful face, and he is not tired at all, "Let's have breakfast together, after eating well, we will set off."

"Your Excellency..." Yeats cupped his hands, "You should stay here and rest while you deal with Lord Lu's case. He is just a murderer. You don't need to go there yourself. Teng and I can catch the head."

"I heard that murderers like to kill young couples. If you and I work together as bait, can we catch the murderer faster?"

"..." For a moment, Yeats felt that his brain couldn't move, and his breathing couldn't move smoothly. Are adults doing things like this now?

Yeats had thought of this before, but he was teaming up with Catcher Teng and Catcher Zhang, and it was impossible for the majestic Master Shaoqing to come.

And... and... what kind of young couple... why are they so shameless!
ah ah ah...

The immediate boss who is too self-serving is too much to bear!
Suddenly, Yeats didn't eat a few mouthfuls of breakfast.

Master Pei stroked his forehead, did he scare his subordinates, and ordered Mingzhu to bring some food and snacks.

"Let's go!" Master Pei strode out of the Yangzhou Yamen.

Yeats quickly followed.

Bai Lang sighed, in order not to show his fatigue, his father cleaned up as soon as he came out of the prison, he shaved cleanly, and he was more conscientious than going to court, God, this master was completely planted in the hands of this surname Ye.

This is how to do?Bai Lang scratched his head and ears, did he think of a way to hint that Mr. Ye should stay away from his master?
What if Mr. Ye deliberately pretended to be stupid and didn't listen?

Bai Lang looked at Teng Chong, Qin Dachuan and the others, and finally his gaze fell on Qin Dachuan. He is the oldest, and Yeats usually respects him quite a bit. Why don't you let him remind Master Ye?

In the early morning of winter, the weather was cold and the road was slippery. In order to quickly catch up with the murderer, Pei Jingning left the carriage and rode with Ye Zhi and others.

On the cold official road in the south, more than a dozen horses are galloping, attracting the attention of passers-by. It's so spectacular!
