"Your Majesty ordered the Criminal Department to apprehend and bring to justice the culprit of the Qianzhou murder case within ten days. If it fails to do so within the time limit, Xiao Yan, Minister of the Criminal Ministry, will be dismissed from his post to investigate and deal with it.

Xiao Yan and Zhao both knelt down to receive the oral instruction.

The chief servant's voice is not too loud.

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yan and Zhao Du were both stunned, and Zhao Du was full of surprise, "Why is Your Majesty so urgent?"

The chief servant said: "My lords, please get up first, let's go in and talk about it."

When Zhao Du and Xiao Yan got up, the head servant swept around the yard, they were all from the Ministry of Punishment, and did not see anyone else.

He managed to go out of the palace with great difficulty, and when he came here, if the news could not be sent out, the head servant was very anxious, with a respectful smile on his face, "It's not that your Majesty is in a hurry, it's because this case has too much impact, His Highness is recuperating here, but will it affect Miss Lu?"

The Ministry of Criminal Justice confiscated Lu Jia's house, and Xiao Yan reported it.

When the chief servant asked, Xiao Yan didn't have any doubts, and only said: "There was a reason for the incident at the time. The Second Highness is still unconscious, and the wound has been repeated repeatedly, and it is not easy to move. I have given the third Miss Lu a subsidy."

"I heard that Miss Lu San is brewing wine for the household department? She is capable, but...it's getting late now, why don't you come back? Is it inconvenient to live here? She vacated the whole house for the Second Highness to recuperate. gone?"

Xiao Yan twirled his drooping fingers, and the chief servant's gaze deepened immediately, "Your Majesty still cares about these things?"

The chief servant's heart skipped a beat.

Xiao Yanneng was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Punishment at a young age, on the one hand, the emperor intended to promote him, on the other hand, he himself was really capable.

Realizing that his own words might have caused Xiao Yan to doubt something, the head servant cheered up 12 points, sighed, and said: "Last time, in order to save Second Young Master Xiao, Lady Ning and Mrs. Rong Anhou jointly framed Third Miss Lu. His Majesty has always been brooding over the matter. After all, she is the daughter of Governor Lu. She is in the capital and also in the palace. It is not good to suffer that kind of grievance.

His Majesty specially ordered that when the old slave came out to pass the decree, he would ask along the way, did Miss Lu move out of Rong'anhou's mansion to live here now? "

"No, she moved out and lived here. She bought more than a dozen maids to protect the courtyard, but because we borrowed the space, her people are all in the backyard." He answered with a smile.

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows lightly, does the emperor really care about these things?
Is it wronged to care about an insignificant concubine?
How could he be so unlucky.

What made the emperor suddenly urge the case to be closed?
Xiao Yan twirled his fingers lightly, and suddenly smiled and said: "Today I heard that a cat hid His Majesty's book? But was it verified? Is it really a cat? When Zhao Du told me about this, I was shocked, and even I never knew that the side hall of the Imperial Study Room also has Buddhist altars."

The head servant laughed and said, "It's not just a cat. It almost delayed His Majesty's important event."

"What book can make His Majesty urge me to close the case in such a hurry?"

The chief servant turned his head to look at Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan didn't have the slightest sense of inquiring about the Holy Will, he had an innocent smile on his face, and continued to ask, "I heard it's from Qianzhou?"

The chief servant smiled, "This old slave is only serving tea and water, how could I know this, Mr. Shang Shu made things difficult for this old slave. Originally, I wanted to thank Miss Lu San on behalf of His Majesty, but since Miss Lu is not here, this old slave will Retire."

Turn around and leave.

Xiao Yan looked at the back of the chief servant, thoughtful.

As soon as the head servant got into the carriage and left, Zhao Du immediately bumped Xiao Yan's arm, "What are you doing, why are you brazenly inquiring about that book?"

"Don't you think it's strange? At that time, His Majesty almost lost his wits when he was bombed. Mrs. Zhen Guo's wife was directly killed by the bomb, and everyone in Zhen Guo's mansion was seriously injured.

The emperor did not order the Ministry of Criminal Justice to handle the case quickly.

This time, they ordered the case to be closed within ten days. If the case cannot be closed, I will be dismissed and investigated.

Isn't that weird?
There must be something wrong with that memorial. "

"How can you be sure that there is something wrong with the memorial?" Zhao Du said.

"Because you find the memorial on the front foot and come out, and the holy will arrives on the back foot. What do you say is wrong?"

"The Chief Chamberlain"

Xiao Yan looked at Zhao Du, paused for a moment, "I mentioned Lu Jia specifically, I'm afraid it's uneasy and well-intentioned."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Du immediately became nervous, "Don't worry about your kindness, how can you not worry about your kindness? Ren Lu Jia even vacated his house for us to use, why is he still not worried about his kindness?"

"Remind Lu Jia." Xiao Yan said.

"Yes, yes, you are right, I will go find her right away." Zhao Du walked out in a hurry as he spoke,

As soon as Zhao Du left, Xiao Yan greeted Shisan, "Go and find out who the current magistrate of Ganzhou is, who he has close contacts with, and what cases and investigations he has done before sending the paperwork!"

The thirteenth order was executed immediately.

Ministry of Accounts.

Lu Jia said with a smile towards the Minister of the Household Department: "Master Shangshu, my father has sent a letter saying that there is no need to hide my entry into the Household Department. From tomorrow onwards, I will be able to come here to be on duty in a fair manner.

This is a wish from my father to Lord Shangshu, wanting Lord Shangshu to take care of me a little bit. "

Lu Jia packed a jade pendant of excellent quality in a high-quality red sandalwood box, and sent it to the Minister of the Household Department.

of course.

The jade pendant was stolen from the Lu family.

The red sandalwood box came from the old lady.

Giving gifts of other people's stuff for your own benefit. Tsk, not bad.

Hubu Shangshu glanced at the open red sandalwood box, with a greedy smile in his eyes, "It's easy to say, Miss Lu San is also smart, this position"

Lu Jia said: "I don't have any experience, I just rely on the advice of Master Shangshu. Why don't we start from the basics and do some registering?"

The Minister of the Household Department laughed and said: "It just so happens that there is a batch of raw silk that has not yet been registered. From tomorrow onwards, you will be responsible for registering these raw silk. "

"Thank you, Lord Shangshu, for your trust. I will definitely work hard. I wonder where the raw silk is from? Yuhang?" Lu Jia asked with a smile.

The Minister of the Household Department said: "There are all over the place, but mainly in Shu and Yuhang. Oh, by the way, the salary of the Jingwei Camp seems to have not yet been distributed. I received money from the Household Department before, but the money was short at that time and it was not recorded. Master Liang Xiaoliang, Commander-in-Chief of the Jingwei Battalion, will come to pay the money tomorrow, and you will make another book and pay it with raw silk."

Use raw silk to pay for salary?

Lu Jia suddenly understood why the old dog Shangshu Hubu gave her this job so happily.
