Chapter 128
Yang Hao was already very annoyed when he saw Lu Chenxing's appointment, and when he saw the approval from the Ministry of Punishment, he was even more furious!

"Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, come and see Xuan quickly!"

The servant immediately went to the Ministry of punishment to summon him.

Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice is Lu Chenxing's uncle, named Jie, styled Junyan.In fact, Lu Junyan read his nephew's secret letter, and felt that this matter was a bit risky, but it was a rare opportunity to hit Li, so it was a pity to let it go.He thought that as long as his nephew had a criminal confession, there would be no proof at all. Even if the emperor suspected that the Li family had been wronged, he would have to relegate a few officials from the Li family under pressure.

However, yesterday he heard that someone in Beijing was already spreading the news, which made him a little uneasy.This kind of thing is done quietly, if it attracts the attention of scholars, small things may become big things.It would be fine if it was true, it would only arouse public outrage among scholars, but it was obviously planted by them, and if the truth was found out by these test takers, it would be a big trouble.

Lu Junyan came to the Hall of Qinzheng and knelt down to pay his respects: "Lu Junyan, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, sees the emperor!"

Yang Hao raised his head, without saying a word, grabbed the paper on the imperial case and threw it on Lu Junyan's head.

"You Lu family must be fools! Are you so easy to fool?"

However, in Hejiang County, shortly after the Zhao family was arrested, someone delivered a letter to the Gu family, which frightened the Gu family.

Gu Shengwen hurried out to inquire, but since Mr. Qian left Hejiang County, the county government today is different from before. He spent a lot of money, but he couldn't find out anything.The Zhao family was not allowed to be seen in the prison, and no amount of money was paid.However, the cell boss quietly confessed to him after receiving the money, saying that it was all the intention of the county magistrate and Master Huang, and that the inside was guarded by Lord Lu's guards himself.However, as long as Mr. Lu did not give an order, these old people would not treat Mr. Zhao badly.

Gu Shengwen was still worried, and immediately asked Gu Shengwu to go to Wangjia Village to visit Gu Wanniang and Anqi Anran, brothers and sisters, and ask what happened by the way.

Gu Shengwu rode in a carriage for a day before arriving at Wangjia Village, but he saw that the front and back doors were guarded by yamen servants.He quietly inquired with the nearby villagers, but no one knew what happened to the Zhao family.

Fortunately, in the evening, he saw Mrs. He bringing a girl out to pick vegetables, so he followed the past to understand the situation, and then followed Mrs. He into Zhao's house quietly.After arguing for a long time, it turned out that the yamen servant at the gate was grateful for the former relationship with his brother-in-law, and they all turned a blind eye.

Seeing her little uncle coming, An Ran was also very excited.

When something happened to the Zhao family, the relatives near Wangjia Village must have been the first to know about it.But be it Wang's natal family or He's natal family, even Zhao Yuhe, a married aunt, didn't come back to take a look, as if she was afraid of hurting herself, which was really chilling.On the contrary, the few servants who just bought it at home are sincere, and their respect for their master is the same as before.

When Rong saw the Gu family coming and heard about the situation of the man in the family, she couldn't help crying again. The two daughters-in-law themselves persuaded her with red eyes for a while before they came over.

An Ran took this opportunity to tell her uncle her guess about the arrest of Zhao's son, and then unceremoniously ordered him to help her uncle spread the rumors.

Regarding such matters, Gu Shengwu was better than Wei Qingyuan, he immediately nodded in response, and then asked if there was anything else he could do?

An Ran thought for a while, then shook her head, telling Gu Jiaming not to stand up for the Zhao family, otherwise it might cause trouble.

A few days later, Gu Shengwu and Wei Qingyuan came to Zhao's house together in the dark, reported to An Ran what he had done during this period of time, and then waited for her to arrange the next step.

Where is An Ran's next step?She can think of this way is already very good.After thanking her little uncle and uncle, An Ran said frankly that she had no choice but to ask them to pay more attention to Lord Lu's movements in the county, and to tell them immediately if there was any news.

At this time, rumors in the county were already flying all over the sky, Master Huang angrily brought people to Zhao's house, and searched for Zhao's money and belongings under the banner of finding criminal evidence.

Because I heard An Ran's words before, all the valuables at home were buried in the ground, and the yamen servants didn't work hard, how could Master Huang find it?He was annoyed in his heart, and when he saw some good fabrics in the cabinet, he would not let them go, and wanted to take them away.

Seeing An Ran, she said loudly with a doubtful voice on purpose: "This cloth was given by my Uncle He. Is this also evidence of a crime? Can this prove what crime my father committed? It turns out that the crime my father committed was to accept relatives. Gifts! Master Huang, why didn't you say it earlier, we knew that we would not accept any gifts during the Chinese New Year. By the way, Master Huang, did you not accept gifts during the Chinese New Year?"

Master Huang stared at An Ran angrily, seeing that it was a five or six-year-old girl, he threatened, "Stop talking, little girl, or I will arrest you and put you in prison."

An Ran sneered in her heart, but said with a puzzled expression on her face: "Isn't it a rule of the law that underage children can be sentenced without being implicated by the family? When did Master Huang change the law of my court?"

Master Huang was choked by An Ran, and angrily said: "What law do you know, you little brat? What we adults talk about is the law!"

An Ran immediately clapped her hands and shouted loudly: "Did all the uncles present hear clearly? Mr. Huang said that what his lord said is the law. I want to ask, is it possible that your lord is the emperor? The emperor's golden words are good Law, is it possible that Mr. Lu wants to usurp the throne and become the emperor?"

These words frightened Mr. Huang, as well as the others.My god, just because of one sentence, you can be linked to seek to usurp the throne?This is a serious crime that implicates the nine clans!Don't look at the young girl from Zhao Ju's family, her mouth is incredible, she will put a big hat on you every now and then.

So, everyone stared at Master Huang.

Master Huang's complexion was also turning blue and then pale. He stared at An Ran with hatred, wishing to tear up the sneering sneer on her lips.It's just a six-year-old yellow-haired girl, and she dared to frame him for such a big crime.

"Come on, arrest this little girl for me!"
