Spring dyed pear blossoms

Fang Jian was imprisoned with a look of rage.Because the food served by the jailer was too bland, he kicked him to the ground.The son of his majestic political envoy, how could he get used to such rough food.

But after clamoring for a long time, no one paid him any attention at all.

He sat down on the haystack angrily, and cursed in a low voice, "Prison me, you dog slaves dare to treat me like this. Huh, I will remember everything for me. When I go out , You must not seek death if you wish to live."

Meng Qiucheng heard this just after he came in, and couldn't help laughing, "Young Master Fang, you should think about it first, whether you can get out!"

Fang Jian hurriedly stood up, looked at Meng Qiucheng, and suddenly felt that he was somewhat similar to the woman from that night.But it was too dark that night, and he couldn't see clearly enough.In addition, he didn't get too entangled with the woman, so the woman jumped into the river, and he returned disappointed.But the woman who jumped into the river is definitely not the ugly female corpse in the hall.

Even if the clothes are the same, the face will never be the same.Fang Jian, who had seen countless women, was sure that he would not have any ill intentions towards such an extremely ugly woman.

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.Then he looked up at Meng Qiucheng carefully and asked incredulously, "Is Master Meng's cousin really that ugly female corpse?"

Meng Qiucheng raised his lips and stood with his hands behind his back, "Why, Mr. Fang thinks my cousin is too ugly? Heh, heh, Mr. Fang forced my cousin to death, and now he humiliates me. You really deserve to die!"

Fang Jian grabbed the cell door, "If you kill me, my father will definitely not let you go."

"Mr. Fang, if you want to live, you have to see if you have the value of living. It has been three days now, and Mr. Fang has not made a decision. I have to send something to Mr. Fang as a reminder. Come, Let's do it! Remember, be gentle, don't hurt Mr. Fang."

Meng Qiucheng smiled like a thousand-year-old fox, and Fang Jian's goosebumps all over his body, making him feel uneasy.Seeing the two yamen servants entering the cell, he hurriedly hid in a corner, "What are you going to do? I'm the son of the chief envoy. If you abuse lynching, my father will not let you go."

Meng Qiucheng snorted coldly, "This is my territory. If I want to abuse lynching, I will abuse lynching. Today I will seek justice for my poor cousin. One ear for one life, Mr. Fang, You've made a lot of money." After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, "Be quicker!"

The two yamen servants got the order, one held down Fang Jian, and the other took a knife to kill him.Fang Jian hid in the corner and struggled desperately, but the speed of the knife was extremely fast.There was only a scream coming from the prison, which was extremely shrill.

Meng Qiucheng then ordered someone to put the ear in a wooden box, and immediately sent it to Fang Jinzhong's residence.

Although Fang Jinzhong has made a decision in his heart, it is not a last resort, and he does not want to be caught in the net.He thought Meng Qiucheng wouldn't dare to lynch even if he let Cai Yuanqing detain his son.When I saw the ears sent by Meng Qiucheng today, this little luck was completely shattered.

Looking at the bloody ear in the wooden box, he thought of his son's suffering in prison.After much deliberation, in order to protect himself, he decided to plead guilty to the emperor himself, but begged the emperor to spare the only seedling of the Fang family's nine generations.

He thought for a while, took a pen and wrote a letter, and called the servants in the mansion to order, "Go, deliver this letter to Mr. Meng's mansion. Remember, you must hand it to Mr. Meng in person."

In the end, he was still worried, and told him, "Don't send it off now, wait until it gets dark."

Watching the messenger leaving, he sat down nervously.Mrs. Fang entered the hall and looked at Fang Jinzhong's frowning expression, she couldn't help asking, "Master, what happened?"

Fang Jinzhong shook his head, "Madam, I did a wrong thing for my husband, because this wrong thing may affect our Fang family. From now on, Madam, don't go out. If you have to go out, you must bring enough guards. Also, don’t go to remote places.”

Mrs. Fang frowned, knowing something was wrong, she nodded hastily. "Master, what about Jian'er?"

"Jian'er is safe in prison. Madam, don't worry too much, as long as tonight, everything will be resolved. Let's leave Chang'an City tomorrow."

Fang Jinzhong comforted his wife, but he was anxious and suffering in his heart.

At night, Fang Jinzhong hurried out, and the bearers also walked quickly.

The servants of Fang Jinzhong's mansion, according to what Fang Jinzhong said, left through the back door after dark and went to Meng Qiucheng's mansion.

Several guards stopped him, but he only said one thing, asking to see Mr. Meng.Master Zhou came out and asked why this person was, but this person still didn't say anything, insisting on seeing Meng Qiucheng.Master Zhou had no choice but to invite Meng Qiucheng out.

When the man saw Meng Qiucheng, he took out the letter from his pocket and handed it over.

Meng Qiucheng was secretly delighted, and sure enough, Fang Jinzhong, an old fox, didn't know how to be afraid if he didn't make a fuss.She slowly opened the letter and scanned it from the beginning.The look in his eyes became colder and colder, and his complexion became more and more ugly.

Master Zhou noticed the change in Meng Qiucheng and asked, "What's wrong?"

Meng Qiucheng handed the letter to Mr. Zhou, and Mr. Zhou also scanned it from the beginning. "Is it still too late?"

Meng Qiucheng shook his head, but still immediately ordered A Yu beside him to lead someone to stop the sedan chair.

Staring at the full moon that had climbed to the corner of the building, she sighed softly, "I hope, there is still time."

Master Zhou also looked up at the sky. The moon at fifteen is not as round as at sixteen.Dark clouds sometimes cover the moon, and it seems that there is still a faint layer of mist.

This kind of weather looks gloomy and makes people very uncomfortable.

"Fang Jinzhong is too impatient." Master Zhou said.

"He is impatient because he knows that if he mentions it at the court, he will definitely be bitten back. Fang Jinzhong alone can't fight them, so he wants to go to the palace overnight to meet the emperor.

Firstly, he pleaded guilty to the emperor, and secondly, with this letter, Zhang Shuli must not escape the responsibility.

It's a pity that we were exposed in Jingshui Nunnery that day, and Zhang Shuli had already become suspicious.As long as Fang Jinzhong makes a move, he will not let it go easily.If it wasn't for his eagerness to save his son, he wouldn't have thought of these things.It's my official's poor consideration! "

"My lord, why should you blame yourself? Fang Jinzhong is a corrupt official. From the time he chose this step, he should have thought that such a day would come sooner or later. Besides, even if Fang Jinzhong met the emperor and told the emperor all this, Zhang Shuli would still be able to find a way Elute the suspicion.

Moreover, my lord thinks, will the emperor turn his back on Zhang Shuli at this time? "

Meng Qiucheng looked at Master Zhou, and after his reminder, she suddenly came to her senses.Although the matter of the treasury is not a trivial matter, to the emperor, this matter is still not as important as those powerful officials with ulterior motives.The emperor just wanted to use the state treasury to test those powerful officials.

Once he got the result, which was the same as what he thought, he would never show mercy in the next step.

But he was also afraid, or rather, he still had a glimmer of hope.I hope it's just his paranoia.The emperor was able to be safe until now, and he also relied on these powerful ministers.It is a fact that the national strength of the Great Zhou has declined, and the emperor is even more reluctant to see any more casualties in the internal fighting.

But this time, the emperor might be disappointed.The letter in her hand probably doesn't mean much.

The sky was dark and the moon was completely covered by dark clouds.

Meng Qiucheng sat in the living room, waiting anxiously until Ah Yu came back.

As soon as Ayu stepped into the middle door of the hall, she immediately sat up straight, trying to see the result from Ayu's face.However, Ayu's face was indifferent, and there was no unnecessary expression.

"How's it going?"

Ayu paused for a moment, then shook his head.

Meng Qiucheng sat back in the grand teacher's chair, "It's still a step too late. Did you go to Fang Jinzhong's mansion?"

"I've been there, and no one was spared. Zhang Shuli's attack was extremely ruthless. Dozens of people in Fang's residence died overnight. Fang Jinzhong was assassinated on the way, and his body was in an alley not far from the palace. Now, there is only Fang Jian left in the Fang family."

"When good and evil come to an end, there will always be retribution. Fang Jinzhong was destroyed in his own hands, and Fang Jian will have no backing in the future. Anyway, the emperor didn't want to drag Prime Minister Zhang out, but asked me to be that pathfinder. Now the road It has already been explored, and the emperor has a measure in his heart.

Starting tomorrow, find someone to keep an eye on Chu Xi.He couldn't get away from what happened back then. "

Ayu nodded, "What about the book gift?"

"The emperor won't sit idly by Zhang Shuli, but there is a person, Ah Yu, who will help me to check."

Meng Qiucheng whispered a few words into Ayu's ear, and Ayu's eyes were a little surprised.But seeing that Meng Qiucheng didn't explain, he didn't ask any more questions.Because Meng Qiucheng always has her reasons.

Early the next morning, Meng Qiucheng entered the palace with Fang Jinzhong's letter.Before entering the palace, the assassination of Fang Jinzhong by gangsters had already alarmed the entire city of Chang'an.

All the officials in Chang'an City were afraid that this assassination was just the beginning, and worried that if they were not careful, they would become the next one.So when entering the palace early in the morning, each of them was accompanied by a dozen guards.

When Cai Yuanqing was in the early court, he reported the matter of Fang Jinzhong. After hearing this, the emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.But Meng Qiucheng is very clear that this matter will only be a result of no investigation in the end, and nothing will be done.In addition, she handed over Fang Jinzhong's autograph letter to the emperor intact. Fang Jinzhong had neglected his duties and used his position to steal money from the treasury, which was already a capital offense.

Meng Qiucheng was awarded the post of governor of Chang'an Jiumen because of his meritorious service in the treasury.In this way, all of this was carried out as the emperor wished.

After the early court, Meng Qiucheng was summoned to the imperial study room alone.

Dressed in a yellow dragon robe, the tall man looked down at the man kneeling on the jade slab, and suddenly smiled. "Meng Aiqing, this time you have done a good job again."

Meng Qiucheng knew that the credit was not only due to the state treasury, but Zhang Shuli was the main one.She re-sealed that letter, and after it was submitted, only the emperor could see it.The letter mentioned that Zhang Shuli threatened Fang Jinzhong, but the emperor still didn't say anything.

She quietly looked at the thoughtful and ruthless emperor, carefully pondering his inner thoughts, and then boldly asked, "Your Majesty, do you still want to investigate?"
