Yan Cigui Chapter 77

 Under the words "Jingmeng", Lin Yunyan's eyes widened slightly.

 The answer surprised her, and at the same time, her previous advantage was gone.

 The situation has turned upside down again.

 Because, in her memory, she seemed to have never told Xu Jian these childhood things.

　One moment the emphasis is on "consensus", and the next moment it is exposed that the foundation of the consensus is not that solid...

Even though Lin Yunyan always kept her composure when making up stories, she felt a little ashamed in her heart at this moment.

 Not much, but if you have it, you have it.

 Lin Yunyan decided to seek truth from facts and decided to repair her foundation.

After adding a cup of tea and suppressing her emotions, Lin Yunyan said: "It was indeed a very young child.

In those few nights, I always had nightmares and cried when I woke up. As a little baby, I couldn't explain it.

I have hung various things to protect my safety, and the Empress Dowager also asked an expert to read it for me, but with little success.

 As I get older, I can tell what is going on in my dreams.

It was a fire, and there was fire all around. I was not with my mother when her accident happened, but I didn't know why I dreamed about her situation at that time.

The palace and the government were all worried and thought of various ways.

 One day, I suddenly stopped dreaming about it. Maybe it's because I've grown up a little bit.

 It has not happened again, and of course it will not be talked about anymore. "

 Speaking of which, if she hadn't experienced a fire from which there was no way to escape that day, and then opened her eyes and returned to this age, she might not have thought about her childhood nightmare for no reason.

Having said the old story, this foundation is not very pleasant.

Seeing Xu Jian's brows frowning slightly, Lin Yunyan could guess what he was thinking.

 Xu Jian is regretting it.

 I regret letting her talk about this past incident.

　　It was not that she recalled her unhappiness in her childhood, but that he and she experienced a fire together.

There are some things that are tacitly understood. If I really want to talk about them, I don't know where to start. For a while, only silence spreads.

 Fortunately, when it comes to whitewashing peace, both of them are masters.

After three cups of tea, Lin Yunyan's topic turned directly to Madam Wang.

"According to Zhu Cheng, the relationship between her father and Lady Wang lasted for several years," Lin Yunyan thought, "We previously suspected that the child was not necessarily Zhu Cheng's biological child, or that he might not be the child of Lady Wang, but the true situation... If you ask your neighbors more, you can gain something.”

 Xu Jian nodded and said: "Shuntian Prefecture is inspecting banned books. No matter how Zhu Cheng clarifies it, with Shan Fu Yin's attitude in handling the case, he will still ask a few more questions."

 As for the harvest…

With just those few words from Li Yuanfa, Shan Shen could not defeat Zhu Cheng regardless of whether he suspected him or not.

 As for Li Yuanfa, if he wasn't a fool, he should have figured out how to save himself.

The two of them were talking to each other, and there was still some contact at first, but later on they started talking about each other with a hammer here and there.

Neither of them thought there was any problem with this way of communication, and they sorted out their respective ideas in such incompatible prefaces and afterwords.

at dusk.

 In the imperial study room, Shan Shen stood respectfully.

The Holy Emperor raised his head from the case file: "The two large boxes are all books banned by the imperial court? Are they dug out from the foundation of Laoshi Alley?"

"Indeed." Shan Shen said after considering it.

The Holy Spirit added: "Look at the ins and outs of Aiqing's case file. This case is quite clear. You can decide how to deal with it."

Shan Shen looked hesitant.

 What is written in the case file are all "facts", from one to two to three, what happened is written down, but there are still many uncertain situations that have not been included in the case file.

For example, those banned books do look quite old, but they don't look like they have been buried in the ground for a long time. Even if they are packed in copper boxes, they are in better condition.

 For another example, does Zhu Cheng have anything to do with this matter? "My idea is that if we continue to investigate further, we may gain something else," Shan Shen suggested cautiously, "This is just a matter of concern to the British government and there is insufficient evidence..."

His Shan Shen is really powerless!

 He came to the imperial court with the case file, and reported that the matter was false, and it was true that he had to send in reinforcements.

As long as the Holy One asks Zhu Cheng to cooperate, Shan Shen's investigation won't be so difficult.

Your Majesty understood what Shan Shen meant: "My dear, I will not let go of any clues. This is a good thing, but..."

　　What I said for the sake of that thief may be too serious.

Shan Shen was serious and indifferent, but Shengsheng was different. He told the British government what to do, as if he was using the topic to cause trouble for the Zhu family.

"Since Aiqing has doubts, let's make more efforts," the Holy Master said. "If we can get more evidence to prove that Zhu Cheng is connected with the case, it will not be too late to ask him for questioning."

Shan Shen knew that this was probably the extent of the progress, and was ready to bow out and leave.

 It was a coincidence that there was a good internal servant outside.

Eunuch Cao went to ask, and when he came back he whispered to the Holy Father: "The Duke of Fu is here."

 A look of hesitation flashed across the Holy Emperor's eyes.

 He knew Xu Jian's intention.

He had tried to persuade Xu Jian a few words before. Despite his young age, Xu Jian had a personality similar to that of his grandfather, and he was very stubborn.

He knew Xu Jian's concerns and difficulties, and they communicated carefully and spoke with the right words. He didn't feel uncomfortable at all. He just felt regretful...

 What a talented person, I can't bear to bury him.

 Xu Jian came over today, so he should still refuse.

Thinking about this, he looked at Shan Shen standing in front of him, and the Holy Master said: "Shan Aiqing..."

Shan Shen hurriedly said: "I'm going to leave."

"Don't leave in a hurry," the Holy Emperor asked Eunuch Cao to lead Xu Jian in, and then said to Shan Shen, "Don't you need someone to hold the line? If you can persuade Xu Jian, let him go."

Shan Shen:? !

 Xu Jian came in and bowed respectfully: "Excuse me, Your Majesty, let's talk about business with Mr. Shan."

“I was talking to Shan Qing about the two boxes of banned books,” the Holy Sage took a sip of tea, “You must have heard about it, right?”

“I heard about it,” Xu Jian said.

Shan Shen was thinking about how to open this mouth.

 Shan Shen only knew a little bit about Xu Jian. He bowed to him when he met him at the meeting, but other than that, there was no other communication.

 He is an official, and Xu Jian is a nobleman. They are older than each other. Xu Jian still goes to court and does nothing, so they are not on the same road at all.

 Come to think of it, the young Fu Guogong probably has no experience in handling cases in the yamen.

Shan Shen wanted to hire someone to lead the battle, but he didn't want to hire an ancestor.

The Holy Spirit has spoken, and Shan Shen has to be invited even if he doesn't want to be invited. I just hope that this person will only come forward and not give random advice.

"This case looks simple, but there are some clues in it. The subordinates are actively investigating," Shan Shen and Xu Jian said, "Mr. Fu Guogong, are you interested in coming to Shuntian Mansion?"

Xu Jian raised his eyebrows.

The Holy Master walked along Shan Shen's steps and said to Xu Jian: "You don't like walking around on the Qianbu Corridor, so why not accept Shan Qing's favor and go to Shuntian Mansion to stay for a few days?"

 After speaking, he did not give Xu Jian a chance to refuse.

"You should go to the court to have tea. You are not asked to investigate or decide the case. You just sit there." The Holy Master said.

 First come, calm down the situation for Shan Shen.

 Secondly, Xu Jianruo became interested in judging cases and so on. Later, he went to the third division and other yamen, where he could also use his talents.

 Xu Jian's eyes turned between Shengshang and Shan Shen, he lowered his head and agreed.

 Xu Jian: The plan is clear!

 Thanks to the book friends Le Sanye, Xiaoyuan, Liang Ye Blind, and Xu Bicheng's official girlfriend for the reward.
