Chapter 195 Fool
"Three lives are lucky, three lives are really lucky, brother Kong Qing can serve soup for younger brother." Gong Meng said while taking a sip of the soup handed over by Xiao Linze, and finally sighed contentedly, "No, Human nature is inherently evil. Occasionally, there is malice, but it is also a lot of fun.”

Lin Qingyue watched the two of them back and forth, as if watching a play, and finally couldn't help laughing.

"Fortunately, I'm going to marry Brother Kongqing soon. Brother Yu, by the way, and Brother Xiaowen will come to the mansion for dinner more. It's really interesting to hear what you guys have to say."

"The little sister-in-law is going to hurry up and marry our Brother Kong Qing."

Gong Meng joked.

Xiao Linze helplessly watched the two go back and forth, not feeling ashamed, especially Gong Meng, he didn't treat women like this before, and now he talks too much.

"I see that you two are going to tear down my Xiao Zhai in the future!"

Lin Qingyue took a bite of her meal, and then said vaguely: "Let's talk about business, talk about business, today's interrogation or something, by the way, observe the judge, what did he say?"

Xiao Linze is not a talkative person. As for the observer who was arrested at the beginning, he was still stubborn, saying that he did not approve the arrest document, that he was not worthy of his name, that he bullied the court officials, and that he abused lynching. After two knives, people are subdued, and the rest of the matter is easy.

"It's recruited, said it was ordered by King Duan." Xiao Linze added another bowl of soup to Lin Qingyue, "Coincidentally, I just got the news from Dazhou today, and my current prefect from Dazhou, that is, Pei A stack of letters was found in a mansion next to the Duke's mansion."

Lin Qingyue asked eagerly, "What letter?"

"Some of these letters came from the capital, and some from some state capitals, but without exception, they are all inextricably linked to the aristocratic family. If the earl's mansion is revealed, it will be deafening in the capital. sound."

Lin Qingyue looked at Xiao Linze with a rare seriousness in his eyes.

"Then will the emperor still deal with those aristocratic families?" She asked softly.

Everyone clearly understands that as long as it is an aristocratic family, no one is clean. Even if the main family is clean, the offshoots may not necessarily abide by the rules, and there will always be some involvement.

At this time, Gong Meng also looked closely at Xiao Linze. Although they belonged to the Qingliu family, but because they were from the family, there were also side branches that were useless, which were out of their reach. On the face of it, they listened to the words of their own family, but There is no shortage of those who obey the law and violate the law.

He couldn't eat the meal anymore, Xiao Linze stopped his chopsticks and said bluntly, "I don't know either."

Xiao Linze looked at the blue and white soup in front of him, and said: "Some things are not black and white. It depends on what the emperor thinks and whether he will take advantage of it. According to my understanding of the emperor, what he wants to achieve is nothing more than A balance."

He picked up his own soup bowl to fill a bowl of soup, and continued: "But the good life has passed for too long, and some aristocratic families should make a move."

He put the soup bowl on the table and made a non-heavy sound, but it brought back Gong Meng's thoughts of running away, "But how to achieve a balance after the big movement? Our current emperor, throwing away In terms of personal feelings, he is undoubtedly a wise king, he is a peace-keeping monarch, will he really disturb the family? Or is he just killing chickens to make an example to monkeys?"

"This incident involves a lot, and the current situation is unclear, and because of the instability of the public, and it was found out that the emperor was the co-conspirator in the assassination of the prince, the matter came to a head, and I am not in front of the emperor. , I really can’t decide what he thinks.”

What he said was analyzed for Gong Meng. It's not that he doesn't want to help, it's that he can't help.

Gong Meng nodded: "I see, I will send a letter back and ask my father to take care of the family."

No one knows if and when the knife will fall, and that's all he can do.

Lin Qingyue felt that the atmosphere was a little stiff, and she just had a doubt in her heart, so she took advantage of the situation and asked, "Brother Kongqing, do you think this whole thing is very weird? It seems... It seems that someone deliberately asked us to find It’s like evidence that someone deliberately caused the plague in Zizhou..."

"That's what I'm going to say." Xiao Linze glanced at Lin Qingyue approvingly, "It can be said that the Duan Wang faction was in a hurry to observe the matter of pushing officials, and we found out their flaws. In addition, I cut off their external contact. That's when we caught a definite witness, but what happened in Dazhou was too coincidental."

He looked at Lin Qingyue and Gong Meng, and continued: "What they discussed was the serious crime of beheading, even if the governor of Dazhou wanted to hold onto those aristocratic families, he left a letter for future reference. Was pushed out as a bargaining chip for a scapegoat, but was found so easily by us?"

"Too fast..." Lin Qingyue slightly frowned with willow-leaf eyebrows, thought for a while, and said at the same time as Gong Meng, "There are still people behind!"

"Yes, there should be someone pushing behind." Xiao Linze affirmed.

Seeing the gradually cooling food on the table, Lin Qingyue's heart seemed to cool down like the food on the table.

"The most frightening thing is that this person has not left any clues for us to guess his identity."

After she finished speaking, she felt a gust of cold wind blowing in from the half-closed window lattice, and she couldn't help shivering.

Xiao Linze saw it, got up and closed the door and window.

"It's not scary that the enemy is strong, what's scary is that we don't know who the enemy is, Kong Qing, do you really have no idea?" Gong Meng looked up at Xiao Linze's back and asked.

Xiao Linze shook his head, turned around and looked at Gong Meng: "I have no clue."

But Lin Qingyue had a guess in her mind: "Could it be Prince Jing? He has always been ambitious, maybe this matter is just him fueling the flames and turning him upside down, and then he will come up with a solution and easily ascend to power?"

Lin Qingyue's conjecture was not without reason, after all, in her mind Li Wen was such an ambitious and ruthless person.

"Perhaps those individuals were not the ones who caused the plague to spread, but he used someone else to pass this method on to the gang of aristocratic families, and they jumped at the mouse and committed this heinous crime again!"

Gong Meng's eyes lit up: "It's also possible!"

However, Xiao Linze shook his head: "I agree with your later conjecture. As for Prince Jing, I don't think so. After all, Prince Jing is not right-minded and cruel, but he is not capable enough to set up such a big situation. .”

"According to what you say, this person should be of a certain age?" Lin Qingyue put her elbows on the table and supported her jaw with her hands.

"According to this conjecture, it is indeed so. This person may also be a member of a large family. They are all in harmony, and they are of a certain age. They can talk in a large family. Of course..."

Gong Meng took out three teacups from the tea tray on one side, picked up the teapot and added a cup to each of them.

"It is also possible for any counselor of a noble family to dedicate such a poisonous plan to their master, but if he wants to grasp the movement of a noble family, he must have a deep network, but it is the most effective way for him to participate in it. Be sure, after all, this is the only way to get first-hand news."
