Detective in the Red Chamber

Mrs. Wang raised her hand and pointed at her, and smiled at Aunt Xue: "This is what it means that like a mother, like a son."

Aunt Xue also agreed with a smile, but when she looked at the child, she always felt a little strange. The tiger-headed and tiger-brained look didn't have much resemblance to Jia Zhen, but she was the same grandson...

bah bah bah~

What are you thinking about, why do you think of him again? !

Aunt Xue hurriedly lowered her head to drink tea, taking the opportunity to hide the shame on her face.

At this time Mrs. Wang said again: "I heard that you two went to the Golden Pavilion Temple early in the morning? Did you see anything rare on the way?"

"There's nothing rare on the road."

Youshi laughed and said, "It's a bit embarrassing to hear the news after I came back."

"What news?"

"I heard that this morning, the King of Beijing Jing personally took Wei Jia Erlang to the Sun residence to thank him. It is said that he and Sun Jia Erlang had a very happy conversation, and now they have all abandoned the past."

Hearing these two 'Erlang's, Aunt Xue suddenly lost her mind.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wang was also immersed in inexplicable emotions, and she never noticed her changes at all.

"Ah~"

I heard Mrs. Wang sigh: "This is really 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. Seven or eight years ago, the Wei family and the Sun family could be said to be in the same sky and the same place, and Wei Ruolan is recognized as a young talent. It is said that it will become a great tool in the future.”

"Who ever heard of Sun Erlang's name at that time? But who would have thought that in just a few years, Sun's Erlang became famous all over the world, but Wei's Erlang was imprisoned and almost became a ghost under the sword."

"It can be said that it is."

You Shi also hurriedly echoed: "I heard that Wei Jia Erlang was tortured in a prison, and he was tortured so badly that he lost his shape, even his hair was nearly half white, and he was still as handsome as before. appearance?"

Speaking of this, she clasped her palms together and chose the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, it is said that God blesses him. He was sent to prison before we got married. Otherwise, Miss Xiangyun will suffer."

The two of you said one sentence to another, lamenting that the world is impermanent, good and bad are unpredictable.

But for another more obvious example - the Niu family in Zhen Guogong's mansion - it didn't mention it at all.

This is naturally because the Niu family has similarities with the Rongguo Mansion in all aspects - they both made great contributions to the founding of the country, and both reached the peak by relying on the nepotism of the harem.

Therefore, both of them deliberately avoided Niu's house, so as not to get into trouble.

After talking about Wei Ruolan, the two chatted about other things, such as how to clean up Jia Zheng in the twelfth lunar month, and the conflict between the long house and Uncle Zhao.

By the time Youshi left with the child, it was already more than an hour later.

However, Mrs. Wang did not forget what she had said. After sending Youshi away, she immediately backed away, took Aunt Xue's hand and sat back on the Arhat bed.

"Actually, I've been thinking about it for the past few days."

While observing her younger sister's changing expression, she said cautiously: "If you want to say that there is someone who is better than Baoyu, there is one right now, and that is Sun Jia Erlang..."

"no!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Sun Jiaerlang's name came out, Aunt Xue seemed to be stabbed in the buttocks, she jumped up, shook her head and waved her hands and said: "Sun Jiaerlang can't do it, definitely can't do it! "

Mrs. Wang was taken aback by this reaction, and she hurriedly pushed Aunt Xue back to her seat, and asked, half offended and half puzzled: "What are you shouting about? With the current market situation of Sun Jiaerlang, how many princes and grandsons have robbed him?" I want to get married with him, how come I can't make up my mind if I get here from you?"

"me……"

Aunt Xue knew that she had lost her composure, and she was so anxious that she couldn't help but blurted out: "Baochai once said that the concubine in Sun Erlang's family gave birth to the eldest son and was rewarded by the court. It's restlessness."

Mrs. Wang was relieved at this moment, but then she teased: "What are you afraid of? It's okay for others, Baochai is just like you, and she is destined to be a good child. If you can give birth to the son of the Sun family as soon as possible after entering the door, you will worry... ..."

Never thought she hadn't finished speaking, Aunt Xue jumped up again, this time without giving Mrs. Wang a chance to respond, she hurriedly dropped a sentence: "I... I suddenly remembered that there was something wrong at home, so I don't care. Disturb my sister!"

Saying that, he rushed to the door like burning his buttocks.

"What's the matter?"

Mrs. Wang was puzzled for a while, but she just teased her niece is a good child, why is she so anxious as a mother?

Chapter 788

The title of the last chapter is wrong, it should be chapter 787.

But she said that just when Aunt Xue suddenly remembered that she still had important matters to deal with, at the same time, someone was also worried because of similar reasons.

Beijing Palace, the piano room in the backyard.

Princess Weiying knelt on the qin platform, folded her long legs behind her back, and wiped the lyre in front of her absent-mindedly.

Thinking of her husband and younger brother being thankful in front of Sun Shaozong at this time, she felt ashamed and helpless. She really didn't know what the prince thought, but she insisted on coming to the door to thank her personally.

But I don't know how the person surnamed Sun will be proud of receiving this kind of promotion.

锵

The more she thought about it, the more upset she became, and her raised little finger unintentionally moved the strings. Wei Ying's hand froze, and she simply threw the brocade cloth into the copper basin beside her, staring blankly. Come.

Before she knew it, her hand was rubbing lightly on her lower abdomen, as if she could sense that something was quietly happening inside.

A change that frightened her.

Ugh

After a long time, Princess Bei Jing let out a long sigh, stretched out her numb long legs, and beat them one after another.

Leng Buding's face blushed again, but he remembered that he stretched his legs that day, but was taken advantage of by that surnamed Sun to belittle him.

And what happened next is also vivid in my mind.

"Bah bah bah!"

She spat a few times, trying to drive that annoying memory out of her mind.

"Why, did Ying'er eat something dirty?"

At this time, a voice suddenly came from outside the door, Wei Ying raised her eyes to look, but it wasn't King Shui Rong of Beijing, who else could it be?

Half surprised and half guilty, she got up, and while going out to greet her, she asked, "When did the prince come back?"

As he said that, he stepped forward thoughtfully and helped the water dissolve the cloak on his body.

"It's not long since I got home."

In Shui Rong's indistinct voice, there was also a smoky smell of alcohol.

If it had been changed before, Wei Ying would have retreated far away.

But now that he feels ashamed of him, he hangs up the cloak patiently, and then sits on the soft cushion with Shui Rong, and persuades softly: "My lord is not in good health recently, I'd better drink a few glasses for the sake of coming up." Ah, hurry up and bring a bowl of hangover soup!"

Seeing that she not only didn't hate the smell of wine that he deliberately exhaled, but showed a caring look, Shui Rong couldn't help but appreciate it.

Secretly thinking, if she had known that Wei Ruolan had been released from prison earlier, she would have undergone such a change, and she should have facilitated the trial of this case earlier!

Of course, it was also thanks to that Sun Shaozong, if he hadn't been the presiding judge, the case would not have been so easy to sort out.

With an inexplicable affection for Sun Shaozong, Shui Rong patted to the side, beckoned his wife to sit beside him, and took advantage of the opportunity to embrace her slender waist and said: "This time when I went to Sun's house, Sun Shaozong was very polite, but unfortunately he never let go." , promised to learn about Lang Geer's case as soon as possible."

Wei Ying didn't care about this, after all, after Wei Ruolan was released from prison this time, she felt quite enlightened, and said several times that she didn't want to be in the officialdom anymore.

Since he no longer wants to be an official and the Niu family has vanished, what difference does it make if the case is settled sooner or later?

However, these words fell into Shui Rong's ears, and made him shake his head: "As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have future blessings, not to mention that Brother Lang is only in his early twenties now. It's hard to say that you will learn a lot of wisdom from a pitfall." It can go even further.”

Having said that, he put his head close to his wife's ear, and said with a smile: "I see that the words of that surnamed Sun are actually a little loose, let me walk around with him more, Lang Ge'er's affairs will definitely turn around .”

This sentence of walking around more surprised Wei Ying.

Now when she remembers those things, she is always ashamed and indignant. If Sun Shaozong comes and goes frequently in the future, it will not be too much.

"My lord."

Wei Ying was very quick-witted, and hurriedly persuaded, "Since Brother Lan has no intention of officialdom, why do you have to condescend to that scoundrel surnamed Sun?"

After all, she is not a cautious person. When she said the word "rogue" at the end, she couldn't help but get emotional.

Fortunately, Shui Rong is not a careful person, and he didn't hear anything wrong, so he still smiled triumphantly and said: "Ai Fei's words are wrong, and the brothers of the Sun family are already in court. It is a force that cannot be underestimated, but what Gu values ​​more is the potential of his two brothers."

"Then Sun Shaozu is the son-in-law of the Rongguo Mansion, and Sun Shaozong also has a close personal relationship with several young masters of the Rongguo Mansion. At the same time, that Sun Shaozong is regarded by the prince as a minister."

"It doesn't matter which family gains power in the future, I'm afraid the Sun family will go one step further."

"That's why this king made friends with his brother at this time, firstly to solve Lang Ge'er's dilemma; secondly, it is also for the sake of the future."

After hearing this long speech, Wei Ying naturally knew that it would be useless to persuade her again unless she was willing to reveal the truth.

So he sighed helplessly, and subconsciously rubbed his lower abdomen.

This move fell into Shui Rong's eyes, but he thought she was worrying about her children, so the hand slipped down, sliding down Wei Ying's left leg.

The princess's long legs are really the best in the world!

I don’t know how many people couldn’t sleep at night because of it, but in the end, only myself can play with it so carefully.

Thinking like this, he triumphantly put his mouth next to Wei Ying's ear, and said with a chuckle, "Aifei, if you're not in a hurry to drink the hangover soup, how about ordering a descendant soup first."

"Bah! It's broad daylight, what nonsense!"

Wei Ying pushed him away, her chest heaved rapidly, her face was full of signs of nausea and retching.

Seeing that Shui Rong seemed to be really annoyed, she hurriedly complained to Ruan Yu, but she felt regretful, the princess is beautiful, but she is too old-fashioned in this respect, never willing to be like those lowly concubines, who can do everything Extremely pleasing to himself.

It's such a pity for that cherry-like mouth!

However, how did Shui Rong know that Wei Ying would be so disgusted because he thought of what happened on the boat that day, so he felt the fishy smell and nausea.

It just so happened that the servant girl brought the hangover soup, Shui Rong hurriedly borrowed the donkey from the slope, took the warm soup and sipped it one mouthful at a time.

Probably because the hangover soup was really effective. After he drank half a bowl, he suddenly remembered something serious, so he hurriedly ordered: "By the way, I will invite Sun Shaozong to a banquet in three days. My concubine might as well make arrangements in advance, and I will always have a banquet." Make him feel at home."

Sun Shaozong will come to the banquet in three days? !

Hearing this, Wei Ying felt another thump in her heart. She got up and wanted to object, but she couldn't find a suitable reason.

In the end, he could only sigh secretly again, stroking his lower abdomen silently.

I don't know if it's because, after hearing a lot of Sun Shaozong's name today, the strange feeling in the lower abdomen seems to become more and more clear.

Chapter 789 Propagation

"Ah!"

Sun Shaozong was sitting alone in the study room, just as he stretched out the draft on the case, he suddenly felt his nostrils itchy, turned his head to the empty space, and sneezed loudly.

This is who misses me again?

Is it the Prince of Jing, the concubine, who just left not long ago, or Aunt Xue who lost her life to her by mistake last night?

Sun Shaozong rubbed his nose, thinking wildly for a while, and then focused his attention on the draft on the table.

From the second day he joined Dali Temple, he had been thinking about how to break the situation with his prestige. Although he had already established his prestige when he investigated the case later, he was far from accomplishing the word of breaking the situation.

What he wants to break through is not his isolated and helpless situation in Dali Temple, but the embarrassing status quo of the entire Dali Temple in the Sanfa Division.

In fact, the current crux of Dali Temple is nothing more than the four characters of "up and down disconnection".

Although it is called the General Constitution of the World's Outlines and Disciplines, the current Dali Temple is actually a "wait and rely" government office. It has almost no capital to control the local government, and can only wait for the other party to take the initiative to submit difficult cases.

However, the local government, in order to preserve its official reputation, is extremely resistant to this.

So after going back and forth, Dali Temple is like a weed in the wind, with almost no foundation at all.

After losing its practical significance, the status of Dali Temple in the Sanfa Division and even the entire court naturally declined steadily.

Nowadays, he has even faintly become a vassal of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Most of the cases handled throughout the year are handed over by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and it only needs to be pronounced according to the other party's wishes.

The more this is the case, the less the people-friendly officials below will take Dali Temple seriously, thus further forming a vicious circle.

In order to reverse this situation, it is undoubtedly necessary to re-establish the foundation of Dali Temple, and then regain some power from the Ministry of Punishment and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

In fact, looking through the files, it is not difficult to find that when Wei Yigang took office, he also thought about reviving the situation.

At that time, in his first year in power, he obtained three orders successively. He asked officials from all over the country to report difficult and miscellaneous cases, and he sent a working group to investigate and find out.

But these actions came to nothing in the end.

The reasons are, firstly, that Dali Temple really lacks the means to control local officials; secondly, this Dali Temple really doesn’t have many elite soldiers and strong generals. A lot of jokes were made.

Adding Wei Yi is not a strong order, but it is just three fires for the new official to take office.
