Twin Brocade

Chapter 665 Exceptions
As night falls, the lights are on.

Jiang Langzhong returned to his mansion, his face was full of complacency: "Come! Fix a table of dishes for me, I want to drink a few cups."

"The master is back? Change the official robe first, and I'll let someone clean up my concubine." Mrs. Jiang is a woman from a small family, and she has always served him well.

After the wine was served, Jiang Langzhong took a sip of the wine comfortably, and said triumphantly: "You don't know, I finally took the credit for that Quan Moxian today, haha!"

Mrs. Jiang held the robe for him, and echoed: "Master, he has no foundation, what can he use to compete with you, he has no need to elevate his status."

"You can't say that. Although his foundation is weak, after all, he has the support of the princess." Jiang Langzhong said triumphantly, "He's thinking of going wrong. To be an official, you still have to follow the right path, don't deal with these crooked ways!"

Even though he said that, he didn't know how jealous Quan Moxian was for being favored by Princess Baochang.

"Princess?" Mrs. Jiang's hands trembled, and she said worriedly: "Master, do you think that Quan will become angry and complain to His Highness the Princess?"

She has never seen much of the world, and her social circle is limited to the female relatives of ordinary officials.For her, the Royal Princess is both mysterious and sacrosanct.

Jiang Langzhong smiled complacently, and said: "You women have long hair but short knowledge. If Her Royal Highness wants to blame her, she will not blame me. Even if she is a princess, she would not dare to openly embarrass the court officials."

Throughout the dynasties, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. This is an iron law.

The traces of Princess Baochang's fall from favor are obvious. The king of Qianyang died in rebellion, and the prince took the crime and made meritorious service and went away to Dizhou for disaster relief.Without a backer, no matter how arrogant she is, she should know how to restrain herself.

"What's more," Jiang Langzhong shook the teacup and said, "Depending on Mo Xian's temperament, he may not go to the princess for help."

"Why?" Mrs. Jiang didn't understand why Quan Moxian would let a big tree like Princess Baochang not rely on it.

Jiang Langzhong took a sip of tea and said, "He is quite a proud man." Even if he is an opponent, he has to admit that Quan Moxian is indeed extraordinary.

Quan Moxian and Princess Baochang, this romantic scandal that has spread all over the city, he is also secretly adding fuel and jealousy.However, he didn't believe it in his heart.

The people who know you best are not your friends, but your enemies.

This sentence is really good.

Just as Jiang Langzhong thought, Quan Moxian had no intention of asking Princess Baochang for help in this matter.

It is one thing to use Princess Baochang to open up financial resources and consolidate the foundation, and this is the interest she paid in advance.But what happened in the yamen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice was a contest between men and men, and Quan Moxian had to rely on his own ability to resolve it.

Want to take credit away from him?
Neither can anyone.

In fact, this is not the first time such a thing has happened in the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Most of the time, he doesn't care.

As long as the injustice is punished and the real culprit is brought to justice, Quan Moxian doesn't care much about whose name is written on the dossier.

He didn't come to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to fight for power and profit, let alone gain fame for himself.He just wants to do his best to help those people who have been wronged and oppressed at the bottom.

But this time, things are different.

This was something Fang Jinshu entrusted to him, and he didn't want to disappoint her.I don't want her to see that he can't even keep the credit he got, so incompetent.

Although Quan Moxian knew in his heart that Fang Jinshu would not underestimate him because of this incident.

But in front of her, how could he show weakness?

"Mu Chuan," Quan Moxian ordered: "Early tomorrow morning, you will send this letter to Gong's house for me, and hand it over to Young Master Gong."

Mu Chuan went down in response, and the study fell into silence again, only the candle was burning quietly.

Quan Moxian sat on the chair, frowning in thought.

What happened to the Hong family happened too fast!He only brought Hong Ziliang back to the Ministry of Punishment in the morning, and in the evening news came out from the palace that the minister of Si Nongsi had allowed him to resign from his old age and return to his hometown.

Among them, there must be something strange, which he does not know.

He thought about it, and was drawing on the paper with a pen.After an unknown amount of time, the pen in his hand paused, leaving a huge ink dot on the paper.

The deposed King Ruyang, Si Nong Siqing, Empress Dowager Xiao, and Emperor Qinglong!

The relationship between them was more complicated and secretive than he could imagine.

Is it?

Quan Moxian rubbed the center of his eyebrows with his hands, but the thoughts in his mind became clearer, and the secrets hidden by the Hong family were within reach.

Moreover, he had a faint feeling that there must be a terrifying conspiracy brewing behind this!

"Uncle Liu." He walked out of the study and into the courtyard.

Butler Liu who was practicing kung fu heard his voice, stopped punching halfway, turned around and asked, "My lord, what's the matter?"

"I have a hunch that the Hong family will leave the capital." Quan Moxian said: "Uncle Liu sent a few people to watch, and if there is any difference, come and report to me."

"Young master, what abnormality will there be?"

Quan Moxian pondered slightly, and said: "I think that among the servants of the Hong family, some people will leave. And the identity and background of these people may not be that simple."

If it was what he thought, the Hong family would no longer be of any use to King Ruyang.

Si Nong Siqing retired from his old age and returned to his hometown at this juncture, obviously because he wanted to leave Luoyang City, a place of right and wrong.It's just that this decision came too abruptly.

Since it happened so suddenly, the Hong family must have been unprepared.At this time, if there were people from King Ruyang in Hong's residence, they would definitely leave and report such a change.

There is only one thing, Quan Moxian didn't figure it out: King Ruyang has been imprisoned, how can he still have such great ability to make trouble?
Emperor Qinglong was not an ordinary emperor, and his shadow guards were not ordinary.

On this point, in Shengshou, if the assassin was easily taken down, it could be seen that Emperor Qinglong was well prepared.

However, the clues I have at hand are too few, and most of them are speculations.It is too early to judge the truth of the matter.

Quan Moxian shook his head and stopped thinking about it.Asking Steward Liu to keep an eye on the members of the Hong family is just a habit of his to prevent problems before they happen.

Early the next morning, at the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment.

Jiang Langzhong was full of spring breeze, and he kept nodding to his colleagues along the way, and came to his own signing room with wind on his feet.

"Come on, bring me the eldest son Hong." The Hong family is no longer the secretary of Si Nong Si, and he doesn't have to be so polite to this eldest son of the Hong family.

Today, he is bound to try the case to get to the bottom of it.

The subordinate took the order to leave, Jiang Langzhong sat behind the desk and flipped through the files he had read from Tongcang, secretly smiling: "Quan Moxian, Quan Moxian, you have done a lot of hard work, it has saved me a lot. effort."

It is really a joy to be able to pick up a peach that has fallen to the ground.

However, before the person he sent to bring Hong Ziliang back, something unexpected happened.
