Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 192
The weather is a bit cold.

Under a thin layer of dark clouds, the air seemed to freeze, making people feel stuffy and panicky.

At the end of the street corner is a street with an extremely ridiculous reputation - Huangquan Road.

The street with its ridiculous name is as desolate and dilapidated as ever.

Filled with a gloomy atmosphere, this is a neighborhood that ends evil, but because of blood and crime, the scenery of the entire royal capital has been sullied.

There is no grass, no woods, and there are no orchards from many years ago. This is the gathering place of the king's capital, Jingzhao Mansion, Tianlao, and the Ministry of Punishment.

In the Jingzhao Mansion, the master Wei Mingzheng reported today's major case to Yin Xuzhui of the Jingzhao Mansion. "During Mao's time, a tragedy happened near Wanbaozhai where a carriage hit someone. The old lady who was hit died on the spot, but the carriage disappeared. It is said that it was the carriage frame of General Huo's mansion."

Xu Zhui was originally enjoying last year's winter tea leisurely, but when he heard the master's words at this moment, his whole body became excited, and he said: "Tsk, General Huo is a tough nut to crack. We can't offend Jingzhao Mansion, but this matter can't be offended." Regardless, after all, someone has come to report to the official."

Seeing that Xu Zhui was concerned about this matter, the master immediately peeked at Xu Zhui's face, and said cautiously: "My lord, the old lady who was hit to death was the wife of the original household servant."

"The servant of the household department?" Xu Zhui frowned. Although he was the former servant of the household department, this person's background was very weak. Although he didn't dare to offend General Huo's mansion, this former servant of the household department...

The master looked around for a while, then lowered his voice: "Yes, that's... the mother of His Royal Highness's birth mother, His Royal Highness's grandmother."

Xu Zhui suddenly jumped up from his seat: "This...how can we do this, with the crown prince on one side and General Huo on the other, it will be very difficult for us to offend anyone."

The master acted quite calmly, and he calmly suggested to Xu Zhui: "Master, let's go to General Huo's Mansion to talk about things, we have to do things on the surface, what did we do and what did we say after we entered Huo's Mansion?" Well, the outsiders naturally don't know about it, let's go find out first, the man was hit and killed by General Huo's mansion's carriage after all, he would never want to get into such trouble, maybe he can give us something unexpected suggestion."

After thinking about it, Xu Zhui felt that what the master said was reasonable, so he nodded and said, "That's true, let's do it this way."

Not long after, General Huo's Mansion welcomed the Governor of Jingzhao.

For General Huo Huan, this is a very busy day.

He had two bad news and a host of unanswered questions.

His elder sister who was the imperial concubine was demoted to the cold palace recently, and his two nephews who were the princes died inexplicably on the border of Yue Kingdom.

What does it mean that the third prince wants to make meritorious service and invite favor?
It's all fart!

The third prince and the sixteenth prince have families like General Huo's mansion, why can't they find opportunities to make meritorious service?They are not fools either, how could they do such a foolish thing as taking risks alone?If you want to make meritorious service, go to the Huo Mansion.

There must be something wrong here.

Of course, Concubine Ming only mentioned the queen and the prince in the letter.

However, according to Huo Huan's understanding, the prince is timid and cautious, and it is impossible for him to do such a bold and reckless thing.

Huo Huan's mind is full of these trifles today, and he thinks the coachman is incompetent, so he drove back to Beijing himself today.

Unfortunately, as soon as he entered Beijing, he bumped into someone.

Still an old lady dying of old age.

Huo Huan thought to himself: She deserves it, who made her run into the middle of the road by herself.

Huo Huan hadn't sorted out his thoughts yet, only to hear the housekeeper report: "Young Master, the governor of Jingzhao Mansion is begging to see you."

The ten-year-old girl sitting next to Huo Huan frowned and said, "Father, they are so bold that they even came to our house, why don't you see them?"

She is dressed in a candle-lit treasure, and she is dressed like a mature woman, not like a ten-year-old child at all. Her immature body exudes a coquettish charm that does not match her age. She wears heavy makeup and dresses very gorgeously.

Huo Huan came back to his senses, smiled and said, "See, why don't you see me? There's nothing to be afraid of. Let them in."

What is Jingzhaofu Yin?I have never met Jing Zhaoyin who dared not give face to General Huo's mansion.

The housekeeper took the order to retreat, and not long after, he brought Xu Zhui to pay a visit to Huo Huan.

When Xu Zhui saw the legendary "national hero", he hurriedly saluted and said, "Jing Zhao Yin Xu Zhui, pay homage to General Huo Shao."

Huo Huan didn't get up to greet him, but sat on the soft couch, crossed his legs, looked at Xu Zhui sideways, and said, "Jing Zhaoyin? What are you doing here?"

The Celestial Dynasty lacks generals, and people like Huo Huan are protected and have privileges. There is only one marshal, and only 20 generals are available. Twenty generals have a total of more than 600 generals under their command. They are generals, ordinary soldiers, and the more than 600 people including generals are all the military resources of the entire country.

This kind of person, the little Jing Zhaoyin can't afford to provoke him, nor can he.

"I'm sorry to disturb the major general." Xu Zhui nodded and bowed, not daring to breathe.

"En." Satisfied with his fear, Huo Huan nodded, and then waved to the butler to give him a seat.

The jeweled girl who sat on the side for a long time couldn't help interjecting: "Father, let's go, you said you would accompany me when you return home."

Huo Huan's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Okay, I'll take care of the matter right away, you go back to the backyard first."

When the girl heard what Huo Huan said, she got up happily, ignored Xu Cone, and walked towards the door. When she walked, she wore jingle bells all over her body, making people have to peek at her.

father?
This Huo Huannian was eighteen, because he was away all the year round, he didn't marry a wife, and there was no concubine in the mansion. In this case, where did the daughter come from?
Xu Zhui couldn't help but look at the back of the leaving girl, oh my god, this girl must be ten years old no matter what, calling Huo Huan her father is really unbelievable, could it be that this Huo Huan still has that a hobby?Let your lover call yourself "daddy"?
Xu Zhui hadn't figured it out yet, but Huo Huan took the initiative to say: "Xu Zhui, a carriage was stolen from my house today."

"Huh?" Xu Zhui couldn't help making a questioning sound.

Huo Huan What does this mean?
Xu Zhui was thinking deeply, and couldn't help thinking in his heart: Oh, by the way, Huo Huan is giving him a step down, Huo Huan just wants to use this method to get rid of the crime, right?
Seeing that Xu Zhui was silent, Huo Huan continued: "Then you guys found the stolen carriage on the outskirts of the city, and there was no one in it."

Xu Zhui listened carefully, and blurted out: "Yes..."

Seeing Xu Zhui's response, Huo Huan smiled. It was a smile of a successful plot, and he continued: "The culprit who hit and killed the person is not from our house, he has already abandoned his car and fled, right?"
