From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 296
Mr. Cai in Jingzhao Yamen wanted to cry. The end of the year was their happiest time, but now, such a big and important case happened.The commander of the Gyeonggi Guard was demoted, and the emperor was furious. If they can't solve the case as soon as possible, they will wait for their jobs to lose their heads.

Feeling depressed and irritable until the end of the court, Master Cai took the initiative to find Feng Wuzheng, and he seemed very unhappy when he saw that his face was not good. He said politely: "Commander Feng, Your Majesty entrusted this case to us. Does the commander have a clue?"

The dead body has been carried to the Jingzhao Yamen, but he has not seen it, nor has he seen the work.Thinking about whether to go to see the corpse first, and then go to Prince Liang's mansion to inquire.

When thinking of Prince Liang's Mansion, one can't help but think of Mei Xin, the eldest princess of Zhen Guo, who has been very popular recently. I don't know what kind of shit luck she has had to have such a good life.The Mei family was also lucky, not to mention a hereditary king with a different surname, and a princess with a different surname. What is the difference between this and a double noble?

Didn't everyone say before that the emperor became suspicious of Mei Zhannan and fearful of the Mei family, why did this suddenly change direction?Could it be the concubine Rong's request?

Thinking of Emperor Rong's noble concubine Mei Linlangcai, she felt a sigh of relief, she was imprisoned in Luomei Palace silently for eight years, and he hardly remembered that there was such a person.But who would have thought that opening the gate of the palace every eight years would be like a phoenix dancing nine days and raising her eyebrows, jumping two steps in a row and directly becoming a royal concubine with the same deputy queen, not to mention winning the emperor's heart again.I have to say that this family is all lucky, and they are very smart.

Unexpectedly, he would be promoted under such circumstances. Feng Wuzheng's heart seemed to have knocked over the five-flavored bottle, and all the ups and downs rushed to his heart, which was quite unpleasant.Although he is the eldest grandson of the Earl's Mansion of Jing'an, he was not liked by his father since he was a child. If he hadn't been raised by his grandfather since he was a child, there would have been no room for him in the Earl's Mansion of Nuo Da.

His father doted on his concubine and killed his wife, and his mother was soft-tempered. He was named Wuzheng because he hoped that he would have nothing to do with the world and others.He was not reconciled, and he really complained for his mother.Therefore, I have worked hard all these years to improve myself.After finally becoming the commander of the sixteen guards of Gyeonggi, he unexpectedly became Feng Yin again in a blink of an eye.

It's really ridiculous to say that he has worked hard for many years and has been relying on his own ability to make progress, but he never thought that in the end, he still couldn't get rid of the person who was said to rely on his ancestors for his superiority.

Forget it, people can't fight for their lives after all, he is the eldest grandson of the Earl of Jing'an, this is a fact, a fact that no one can change.

With a bitter smile, Feng Wuzheng immediately returned the gift, Feng Wuzheng said: "I don't have any clues, but I heard that Zongzheng Hou Ye moved to a new house and lived next to Prince Liang's mansion. He was also helping with the cooking last night. I want to ask him first. What did you see and how did it happen?"

It's useless to think about the matter so far, he should do his job well and find out who is behind the scenes.

I didn't hear that the emperor gave anyone a mansion recently, Mr. Cai couldn't help being curious, and blurted out: "When did this happen, why haven't I heard a word about it?"

Feng Wuzheng also heard what the brothers below said early this morning, and he opened his mouth and replied: "To be honest, I only heard about it this morning, and I don't know exactly what's going on. Master Cai, you can go and ask together with me. ?”

Zongzheng Mingzhen is the imperial guard, and if he wants to see him, he has to go to Qianqing Palace.

Not wanting to waste time, Master Cai refused: "No need, you and I will investigate the case together, just go alone. I'll go back to the Yamen to look at the corpses and then listen to what Wu Zuo has to say. As for Prince Liang's Mansion, I won't go there. At that time, please ask Commander Feng to go there in person."

The case of Nanfeng Pavilion is not yet closed, and the people under him even had a quarrel with the eldest princess.He didn't want to get into trouble, and he was also afraid that Mei Xin would ask about the case of Nanfeng Pavilion, so it's better to hide.

Feng Wuzheng understood and did not refuse, and said in a calm and unhurried manner: "Master Cai is busy, so let me go, but I heard that the imprint of Prince Chuhuai's residence was found on the body of the dead body. Please trouble Master Cai."

Compared to Mei Xin, who was in the limelight and was riddled with rumors, he was even more unwilling to deal with King Huai of Chu.After all, he is the descendant of the dragon, and the queen mother is on top of him. If the question of interrogation is too light and heavy, and he will settle accounts after he comes out, it will be troublesome.

No one in the officialdom is a fool, so Master Cai refused without thinking, but Feng Wuzheng interrupted him before he could open his mouth.He only heard him say: "I just talked to Lord Zongzheng, he has no time to wait, so I will go there first. Master Cai, see you later!"

After finishing speaking and saluting, Feng Wuzheng turned his head and left.

Master Cai was depressed, looking at his back that was drifting away, he said: "Sure enough, he grew up beside the old fox. He is young, has a lot of eyes, and is a little cunning."

"It's very cold and it's snowing again. Who is Mr. Cai talking about?" Lu Guoliang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, came to him while speaking.

In an instant, Master Cai became even more depressed, thinking that he hadn't read the almanac when he went out.As soon as the little fox was sent away, a wolf with a big tail came, and no one was lucky.

Turning around and forcing out a smile, Master Cai hurriedly bowed his hands and said, "Master Lu hasn't left yet?"

Lu Guoliang said with a smile: "I was going to leave. Don't you see Mr. Cai. Mr. Cai, my father asked me to ask him how he sued Shangguan Xinrou for self-stealing? My sister's dowry..."

Master Cai started to cough before he finished speaking, and the cough became more and more severe, as if wind and snow had been poured into his throat, and his face turned red from coughing.

Before leaving the palace gate, Lu Guoliang patted him on the back and said, "Master Cai, please take good care of your health. My father and the whole family are waiting for you. My father is getting old, because of this I am very sad, originally I had to go to the pilgrimage today..."

Master Cai felt that if he continued to cough, he would probably die, so he immediately said: "It has been investigated, it has been investigated. The evidence in this case is convincing, the facts are clear, and the case has been sealed and handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Master Zhang of the Ministry of Criminal Justice has just left. If you want to Ask about the case, hurry up and chase after it.”

Raising his hand to support the official hat on his head, Lord Cai said again: "I have important things to do, I can't talk with you, let's take a step first and say goodbye!"

After speaking, he ran away in a hurry, faster than Feng Wuzheng before.

Straight to the gate of the palace, Master Cai got into the carriage in a panic, and then said: "Go, go quickly, and send the case of Duke Lu's mansion to the Ministry of Punishment."

Putting down the curtain of the carriage and patting his heart, Mr. Cai felt that he was really clever.The Ministry of Criminal Affairs blocked Lu Guoliang's mouth, and the old Lu Guogong would not look for him if he handed over the case, and he would save himself from being scolded in public every day.
