[161. one sixty]

This is the anti-theft chapter

Su Jin glanced at Zhou Ping and reminded: “Be careful with your words and deeds, if you say too much, you will lose.”

Zhou Ping failed to understand her deep meaning, and replied: “It’s nothing, I met a householder earlier. The minister of the Ministry, Shen Shilang, dressed in civilian clothes, told me that he was a miscellaneous worker of the Metropolitan Court, causing me to violate the guidelines and almost committed a crime of disrespect, but fortunately, the Zuodu Censor has a bright eye and can distinguish right from wrong. You never cared about me.” After speaking

, he glanced at Zhu Nanxian again, and continued: “I just saw Captain Nan, and I saw your arrogance, majesty and handsomeness, like a royal relative. Everyone here has the bad habit of wearing plain clothes to deceive people. It turned out to be a school captain, and it is really disrespectful.”

Zhu Nanxian said: “Brother Zhou, you are polite.”

Su Jin gave Zhou Ping another look and said, “The other person is Eating a cut makes you wiser, you eat a cut and you lose your wisdom.”

Zhou Ping failed to understand the deep meaning of this sentence, and scolded: “You still talk about me, but I want to talk about you. You usually make friends with people. , You should be more careful, someone like Colonel Nan is fine, but if you change to Shilang Shen, you will never be able to make friends. Not to mention the thirteenth highness that day, when he came, our yamen went up and down. It’s all broken, and I can only see His Highness’s boot surface. Lord Yang can’t walk the next day because of his knee pain. He also said that when you come back, I want to remind you, but I can’t recruit Thirteenth Highness to the government office anymore. Our government is small and can’t afford this golden Bodhisattva, do you remember?”

Su Jin gave Zhou Ping one last look, feeling that he was hopeless, and decided to ignore him.

However, Zhu Nanxian was embarrassed by what he said, so he had to answer solemnly: “Well, I remembered.” The

three of them walked out of the palace in parallel, took a carriage and headed for the capital’s yamen.

Liu Yichu was already waiting at the entrance of the government office. When he saw three people coming back, one of them was a little familiar, so he held tea and greeted him, “Who is this?”

Zhou Ping said: “This is Brother Nan Ai Nan, the captain of Jin Wuwei. He is very kind.”

Liu Yichu nodded, and while leading Zhu Nanxian to the mansion, he asked Su Jin, “Are you in the palace? In here, have you heard about Yuan Zhe?”

Su Jin paused, lowered his eyes and said, “The prison was ordered, but I couldn’t survive it.”

The three people beside him were stunned, and Liu Yichu asked: ” How did you die?”

Su Jinwei hesitated and said, “Suicide.” Then he added: “Bite your tongue and commit suicide.” The

corridor eaves cast a shadow outside the side hall. Liu Yichu stood under the eaves and looked inside the hall. Su Jinshun Looking into his eyes, there was a white-haired old woman sitting inside, with her back hunched and wrinkled about her sixtieth year. Seeing a few people approaching him, she immediately got up from the seat and was overjoyed. look at them.

Zhou Ping said: “This…how can this be opened?”

Su Jin bit his lip and said decisively, “Let’s not mention it for now.” He stepped into the side hall.

Zhou Ping was stunned for a moment, but didn’t stop her for a while, so she turned to ask Zhu Nanxian, “Xiaowei Nan, you are from the palace, have you heard of this? Yuan Zhe, why did he commit suicide?”

Zhu Nan Xian stared blankly at Su Jin’s back.

Xu Yuanzhe knew that Su Jin had tried his best to rescue Tanhualang from the crowd that day.

Yes, after finally being rescued, why did he die?

He thought for a while, but did not answer Zhou Ping’s words, and followed Su Jin into the side hall.

When the old woman saw Su Jin, she took a few steps tremblingly and asked, “Is it Master Su?” She wanted to kneel down and salute her.

Su Jin hurriedly supported her and said, “Grandma doesn’t need to be too polite.” After thinking for a while, he lowered his eyes and said, “Grandma, Yuan Zhe has always regarded me as a brother, his grandma is my grandma, you still call me The word, call for the rain.”

The old woman said: “This can’t be done, the lord is the lord, the master of the sky, but you can’t be disrespectful.” But after a pause, she looked at Su Jin expectantly for a while, and said eagerly: “Master Su, Caomin listened to Master Zhou, Yuan Zhe was called to the palace, and I heard that the emperor was going to make him a high-ranking official, do you know when he will come out?”

Su Jin avoided her gaze and whispered, “The emperor has entrusted him with an important task, and there is probably more to come. A few days.” Yu Guangli saw that the old woman was still holding her luggage, and asked, “Have you found a place to stay?” The

old woman was embarrassed and said, “Caomin only arrived at Yingtian Mansion yesterday, and originally wanted to go to Gongshi’s office to inquire about it. Who knows that there are officers and soldiers inside and outside the place, and the grass-roots people dare not go there, so I have come to trouble Master Su to ask Yuan Zhe’s whereabouts.” She thought about it for a while, and then said quickly, “Master Su, don’t worry, since Yuan Zhe has passed a few times. When the day comes back, Cao Min will rest at a place closer to the palace gate, it doesn’t matter when he comes out, Cao Min just thinks that he can see him sooner.”

Su Jin’s heart seemed to be blocked by a huge rock, but his lips were drawn He smiled lightly: “How good is this, when Yuan Zhe comes out, you can blame me, the elder brother, for the poor reception.” After saying that, he took the bag from the old woman’s hand and said, “Grandma will rest at my yamen place. , I’ve been busy with affairs these past few days, if I can enter the palace, maybe I can help you to urge Yuanzhe.” As

he spoke, he helped the old woman, walked to the place behind the side hall, and pushed open the door of his own room. , and smiled again: “Grandma, don’t feel disturbing me, I heard Yuan Zhe say that grandma, you will accept insoles, these shoes are not suitable for my feet, grandma, you must have paid a lot for Yuanzhe, you can give me by the way. One pair is fine.” The

old woman smiled happily and said, “Okay, Master Su, you are really a good person.” He took a closer look at Su Jin’s feet, and said, “Your feet are smaller than Yuan Zhe, my lord, yours is yours. I’m afraid I won’t be able to wear it, so Caomin will give you a good pair again.”

Su Jin nodded, closed the door and exited, bumping into Zhu Nanxian who had been following behind her.

Zhu Nanxian glanced at her clenched hand, and for a moment didn’t know what to say, only asked, “Su Jin, is it my father…”

Su Jin suddenly looked up at him, his eyes burning like fire.

But the fire was extinguished in just a moment, Su Jin looked away, shook his head and said, “It has nothing to do with Your Highness, Your Highness doesn’t have to take it to heart.”

Zhu Nanxian was silent for a while, and then asked: “You don’t tell her, do you want to? Return Xu Yuanzhe’s innocence first?”

Su Jin didn’t speak.

Zhu Nanxian looked at her, suddenly grabbed her hand, and put a cold object in her palm.

Su Jin looked down and saw that it was a flawless piece of jade.

Zhu Nanxian said: “This is the jade that Zhang Kui put in the crack of the prison wall of the Ministry of Punishment. I went to find it myself.” Then he paused and said, “Su Shiyu, you don’t have to worry, in the next two days. I have already thought about it. If you don’t tell me the reason for entering the official position, this king will not ask. If you want to do something in the future, you can do it, and this king will help you. This king only hopes that you can understand… You are not alone. Alone .”

Liu Chaoming flipped through the dossier and listened to Qian San’er’s report to trace the result of Su Jin’s poisoning that day, and said blankly: “So, except for a little clue, you haven’t found anything in the past two days? Qian San’er said: ” Your Excellency

is wrong to blame Xiaguan. Apart from this clue, Xiaguan has also found out a strange thing.”

Liu Chaoming raised his eyes from the case.

“Master Liu, since the Thirteenth Highness was willing to jump into the Yunji River to save Governor Su that day, he should be very interested in this case, shouldn’t he also investigate it? But guess what, he not only did not pursue this case closely. It’s a matter of fact, but two Chengtianmen guards were sent away, and the official went to ask, it happened to be the two who jumped into the river with him that day, do you think it’s strange?”
