  Chapter 804 The Man Behind the Scenes

   "You are shameless."

  Gu Lei couldn't help but get angry when he heard it, and cursed with his eyes wide open.

  Chu Nanzhi smiled indifferently: "Now that things have happened, does Mr. Chang Shi feel that you still have room to bargain with me?"

  Jan He also angrily reprimanded: "Queen, why do you waste any more time talking with him, the next official will definitely find out all the crimes of Mr. Chang Shi and convince him."

"slow."

Zhang Xuan's expression was extremely frightened. He knew that he had lost completely this time. If he didn't explain it quickly, he might lose the lives of his family members. Outside of the county, there has been another errand on his shoulders."

   "What is it?"

  Chu Nanzhi asked impatiently.

   "Take care of Tang Muyi, a female family conferred by the royal family in central Beijing, in several counties of Langzhou."

Zhang Xuan gritted his teeth and replied calmly: "The empress and all of you also know that apart from the Qinghe three prefectures, the food towns north of the Donghua River are mainly concentrated in Langzhou. The county guard was fortunate enough to get to know Princess Yanjun, and she was also fortunate to have her take care of her and Princess Wanying's Tang Muyi for the princess. These young princesses almost handed over all the relatives and expensive fiefdoms in Beijing to the subordinate officials. , The lower officials have also benefited a lot from it."

   "Princess Yanjun?"

  Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized, no wonder he was so cautious just now.

   But what puzzled her was that Princess Yanjun was the blood of her ancestors and the aunt of the little boy. Why did she instigate Zhang Xuan to do these heinous things that hurt the family?

  Furthermore, she is the daughter-in-law of the Ji family, and Chang Lao is still her brother-in-law, so she has the heart to do such a cruel thing.

Zhang Xuan nodded emphatically: "I have ten thousand guts, but I dare not lie to the queen. Princess Yan Jun has used her status as an envoy to the internal treasury to ask the lower officials to recruit talents for her and ask for bribes. The 700,000 taels of silver in Zhuojun was given to the eldest princess by the five great clans in the county."

   "I think you are indeed very bold, to dare to frame the eldest princess."

  Chu Nanzhi pretended to be angry and blamed.

The anger frightened Zhang Xuan, and he quickly prostrated himself on the ground, and replied in fear and fear: "There is a dark cabinet in the study of the old house of Xiaguan Tuzhuo County. My dear relatives take care of the detailed accounts of the fiefdoms and towns, and even the account books of the money given to the eldest princess by the big families, the queen will send someone to check it."

   "You actually have left behind."

  Chu Nanzhi shook her head contemptuously: "Losing Money Palace just now praised you as a loyal protector."

   "Official, official."

Zhang Xuan faltered for a while, then mustered up the courage to plead: "Your Majesty and Queen have committed a lot of crimes. It's just that the newborn child of Xiaguan is a single descendant of the nine generations of Xiaguan. It is not easy to conceive, and the offspring born to several concubines have all died, and now they have finally given birth to a male, and I ask the queen to show mercy and spare the lives of their mother and child."

   "Damn it."

Hearing this, Zhan He burst into anger: "Then Chen Sanlang's wife, Xu, and her newborn child are not human lives? How many innocent lives were lost in the entire Langzhou City because of your Lord Chang Shi's words, and you still have the face to stand for yours?" Wife and children pleading with the queen?"

   Although Gu Lei was depressed, he couldn't bear to see innocent lives being implicated.

Glancing fiercely at Zhang Xuan, he put aside his old face and tried his best to ask: "The disaster is not as good as his wife and children, and I ask the queen to show mercy. Once what Zhang Xuan said is true, I implore the queen to advise your majesty to deal with these criminals leniently." family."

   Regarding Gu Lei's request, Chu Nanzhi also couldn't laugh or cry.

  Although he has let go before, as long as all officials truthfully state the charges, they will be dealt with leniently.

  If it wasn’t for the fact that the little old man was still expecting to preside over the reform of the Langzhou government system, she really wanted to ask back: “Why don’t you advocate maintaining the old system now?”

  According to the laws of the Dahe Empire, which one of Zhang Xuan and Lu Cheng's actions is not a major crime to punish the Jiuzu.

   It's just that she disagrees with this kind of torture from the bottom of her heart, and also agrees: "Since Mr. Gu begs for mercy, I will definitely speak to His Majesty about this in person."

  Gu Lei closed his eyes deeply, knelt down to thank Dade for his prostration, and said, "I thank the Queen for her kindness on behalf of countless people who have sinned."

   After finishing speaking, he got up slowly, not wanting to take another look at these two disciples whom he was once proud of, and saluted farewell in a lonely way.

  After this blow, the most perfect Langzhou city in his heart no longer exists.

  Thinking of those women and children who have passed away in distress, he just wants to do his best to help the empress complete the reform of the government system in Langzhou, and hopes to see this feat carried out throughout the country in his lifetime.

After tossing around for half a day, Chu Nanzhi was also a little tired, so she ordered Zhang Xuan and Lu Cheng to be imprisoned, Zhan He and Li Sanmu also went to Zhang Xuan's mansion to search for evidence, and she led Tang Weiming back to the mansion .

   Along the way, she was thinking about how to tell Lin Jinxiao and Yin Enci about this matter.

  The old ancestor treated her kindly, but Chang Lao was the mentor of herself and the little boy. She didn't want the old ancestor to be sad when he found out about this, but she couldn't just look at Chang Lao and let others hurt like this.

Tang Weiming saw her embarrassment, and couldn't help sighing from the sidelines: "It's really unbelievable, but the fact that Princess Yan Jun did such a crime is really resentful, and the queen is also exhausted physically and mentally, it's better to wait until the princess is in the middle of it." After the matter is found out, let the godfather of the servant girl go back to Beijing to report the matter in person."

   "That's a good idea."

  Chu Nanzhi's eyes brightened: "Director Hai has been away from Beijing for a while, and now Shaofu Yin is in charge of Luyan Port King's Mansion. He just got back to Beijing to visit his ancestors, and reunited with his elder brother by the way."

   After saying that, he hurriedly urged: "Director Tang, you should immediately send someone to Luyan Port to invite Director Hai to Langzhou."

Thinking of Ji Huazhen who was still ill, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but take a long breath: "As for Shi Niang's mansion, you go there for me and let the four little treasures go there together, and ask them to stay in Shi Niang's mansion these few days If you spend more time with her old man, you won't have to go back home."

   In a few more days, it's time for Ji Huazhen to help her spirit go back to her hometown.

  The death of Chang Lao has already made her feel very worried. If she finds out that her younger siblings killed Chang Lao, the anger in her heart will be even more difficult to calm down.

   At this time, only the quadruplets can give her more comfort.

   Tang Weiming nodded thoughtfully and said, "Don't worry, the empress, the maidservant will work with the little princess and His Highness to appease the old lady."

  After hearing this, Chu Nanzhi felt much relieved.

Back in the inner room, seeing Chu Wenbi and Abi Achun taking care of little Ruiji and little Ruisi drinking the newly warmed milk, neither crying nor making trouble, Chu Nanzhi stepped forward in relief, and took the After Abi hugged little Ruisi, she looked at her with love and compassion, and said with a warm smile: "Reis is so good, in two days, mother will find a nurse for you, you and brother will never be hungry again. Stomach."

  Chu Wenbi guessed that his daughter should have solved the strange things in the city, and confirmed with joy: "I just heard the commotion outside, Da Zhi, have you found the person behind the scenes?"

"Um."

  Chu Nanzhi responded lightly.

"That's great. I'll let the governor issue a few more notices. It's not that kind of thing to let the two little guys drink milk. We need to find a few wet nurses to come into the house earlier. How can we let us in the future?" The princess and prince are wronged by this."

  Seeing that the old father was about to go out impatiently, Chu Nanzhi couldn't bear to stop him, so she could only watch the old father go out to Tan Qing's house to continue to make things difficult for him.
