Chapter 114 Meeting in a narrow road

Qian Yun said: "Third Uncle, should we report the matter to the Dongting Hou Mansion immediately?"

Liu Shuo walked a few steps, stopped and said, "I want to report. However, I can't file a complaint directly."

"The evidence is convincing. It is clear that the crown prince intends to fight for power with the Gu family. Why can't he directly sue?"

"It's good for the prince to have a different heart, but the current situation cannot tolerate any disagreement between the prince and the Gu family. Without the prince in the Gu family, the emperor will not have any scruples about cleaning up the Gu family.

"And without the Gu family, the crown prince's position will also be in jeopardy. The two of them are like grasshoppers tied on a thread. At this moment, the most important thing is to work together.

"What is a framed case compared to imperial power?
"Even if you submit the evidence directly, the crown prince will only convict you and me in turn, or transfer you and me away directly, and you will never let you and me stir up trouble and cause trouble at this time." Disturb the morale of the army, understand?"

Qian Yun was stunned. "Then how to deal with this matter?"

"My lord, Mr. Fan sent someone to send a message, saying that there is an urgent matter to discuss, please move to the Governor's Mansion."

As soon as the words were finished, the members of the Liu family hurried forward.

Liu Shuo signaled to Qian Yun: "You have a cup of tea first, and I'll discuss it when I get back."

Qian Yun's jaw.

Just after taking a seat in the flower hall, I heard a voice coming from outside the door: "Why did your lord come to kiss you?"

"The emperor secretly sent Marquis Wu Ning to sit in Nankangwei, and this official only received the news. Where is Qian Yun?"

Hearing the loud voice, Qian Yun immediately raised her butt and stood up, and walked quickly to the door.Facing the stout figure and the official in brocade and satin gown, he bowed down: "My lord has seen you!"

"Aren't you in charge of the Huhang River Road? Why didn't you report this in the morning?!"

Qian Yun was stunned when he heard the news that Ling Yuan was ordered to sit in Nankangwei.

Hearing this angry reprimand again, he immediately knelt down and said, "My lord, I set off from Huzhou four days ago. I didn't hear any news about the imperial envoy before I left. I really didn't know that Marquis Wu Ning had arrived in Huzhou!"

"Then what are you doing back here?!"

Faced with the questioning, Qian Yun had to tell Fan Xin the ins and outs, and then Liu Shuo also handed over the evidence in his hand: "The official is planning to go to the Yamen to report this matter to the adults!"

After Fan Xin finished reading, he also looked at Qian Yun in shock: "Now everyone is in Nankangwei's hands?"

"General Zhaoyi Huo Rong, who is in charge of this case, refused to let him go, and said that he would ask the Water Transportation Department to give an explanation within ten days, otherwise he will be dealt with!"

Fan Xin gritted his teeth for a moment, then flipped through a few pages of paper in his hand again, then frowned with his hands behind his back, and took a deep breath.

……

Changying went to the pier to work for several days.

In the past few days, except for the people in the guard's guess about her relationship with Ling Yuan, even if they live in the same street, they have not met each other so far.

She buried her head in her own business, pretending that Ling Yuan hadn't come at all, anyway, if he didn't come to her, she certainly had no reason to send him to her door instead.

Huang Ji inquired about the news that Qian Yun returned to Huai'an on the day when the wharf incident happened. She reckoned that the news of Ling Yuan's arrival had already reached the governor's mansion.

There are still a few days before Qian Yun agrees to Huo Rong's confession, and they should take some measures against it.

Right now, she is wondering whether Liu Shuo will agree to Qian Yun's going to Peng Xie for an explanation, because Yang Su will return to Beijing next year. As for the kindling, as soon as Yang Su returned, he began to fully ignite the fire.

So at this time, if there is internal strife in the Water Transportation Department, which is an important position for foreign relatives, and Nan Kangwei sees the joke, it is obviously not beneficial to them.

Recently, the pier has been very peaceful. Although Wu Li was not caught, he was still careful. Huo Rong took the opportunity to send more soldiers to guard the pier. It is now in a period of calm.

How to mess up the shipping department is Huo Rong's business, she doesn't want to reach out, but she has to find a way to earn some value for herself, as well as the capital to save her life.

Although she regretted being unable to be a deserter because of her official position at the beginning, she should still feel lucky that she has an official position. Since Ling Yuan can't know the law and kill officials privately, then of course she must use her position to protect herself.

But all this can only happen under the premise that he will not disclose her details...

This day, she stepped out of the door early in the morning, and was about to drive her horse to the pier, but she saw Su Xinrong also stepped out of the door, her clothes neatly dressed.

Changying thought for a while, and then remembered that today's first day of the new year is the day of the routine meeting.So he hurriedly led the horse back with auspiciousness, went back to the room to pick up the files and documents, and went to the guard.

The case of the Water Transportation Department has been made public for several days, and there has been no formal meeting yet. Today's agenda is destined to be tight.

On the first day of May, the morning breeze is mixed with the fragrance of Sophora japonica, and it is also suffocatingly hot.

Changying hugged the file and hurriedly walked along the veranda with the crowd, looking up at the nondescript military uniform that seemed to be protective, making her inconspicuous even among the crowd.

When she crossed the threshold, there happened to be a group of soldiers coming out from inside, so she stepped back and waited for a group of people to pass by before entering the door.

The two soldiers at the end of the line crossed the line of sight and were about to take a step. Three steps away from the door frame, Ling Yuan, who was followed by Guo Jiao and other guards, suddenly appeared in front of him.

Without the obstruction of the team, he who was also wearing silver armor appeared so unexpectedly.

Four years can turn the former squeamish young lady into a female general who is not frightened or humiliated and strives forward. Naturally, it can also turn a youth who was still young and honest in the past into a prince who is not showing emotions or anger.

Compared with the impression of him, Ling Yuan in front of him is a bit colder, and also has a bit more sharp light that people can't resist.

Changying curled up her fingers holding the file, bowed her body, and lowered her head: "Master Hou."

Changying has been in the Ling family for ten years, and has lived under the same roof as Ling Yuan for ten years, and has never lowered his head to him.

In the two years since Chuchu came to Ling's house, she didn't know how to live or die, and she used to tease him, who was always stern-faced, but she always got his impatience in return.

Changying was indeed a little afraid of him.

She is not afraid of her aunt, uncle, Ling family or anyone other than Ling family, but she is afraid of Ling Yuan.

He was too cold, too serious, too strict, and too hard to let go of him in front of him.

Changying doesn't want to be an annoying person, if she really can't change this, then she has to learn to be more sensible.

Later, she stopped provoking him, and they had almost no interaction, and there was no such thing as who made an apology to whom.

Perhaps in her eyes, Ling Yuan looked more like a "strict father" than Ling Yan.So occasionally she makes a mistake, he will scold her, but he can tolerate it.For example, if Miss Qin's family bullied her, he would ask her to make amends, but he would also scold her when he came back, and he didn't look any good when he went to pick her up from the tenant's house.
