Yan Cigui Chapter 90

 The British government.

 The night was dark, but the lights in the study were still on.

The British prince sat behind the desk, with a look of exhaustion on his brows, listening to the discussions between his sons.

"The accident that happened during the tug-of-war was not intentional. I have already talked with Li Yuanfa's family. As long as the amount of compensation is determined, we can give him more money, and his family is willing to issue a letter of understanding."

"Then Li Yuanfa didn't know how he found Liuguo Hutong. To put it bluntly, he was destined to suffer. He himself died, leaving the family without the mainstay, and his fourth brother was killed in a lawsuit. All parties lost."

"It's a pity that the incident about the outer room has spread, which makes our family look bad."

"When the matter is over, we have to pick a day to bring the mother and son into the house. Since the news has spread, there is no reason to keep them outside."

"The Shuntian Mansion is also very stubborn. It is obvious that this case turned into a major issue in the end, but they are still detaining people. I will go there again tomorrow and take a closer look at Li Yuanfa's previous confession. What is the name of this businessman? Is your surname Xi? Give him some money and let him figure out how to talk in the Yamen."

"If you want to say something nice, say it nicely. Don't act arrogant when you go to Shuntian Mansion. Didn't you see that Duke Xu's manor was gesticulating inside? Did Shan Shen get involved in this? As a lesson learned from the past, that person named Shan is not a clay-faced man."

"Why did the Holy One send Xu Jian to sit in court? He doesn't know how to solve cases at such a young age!"

"You have to find something for him to do, right? In my opinion, just use polite words to support him. Again, don't imitate Duke Xu, who offended Shan Shen and was scolded miserably, and then offended Xu who was watching the fun. Jane, you still haven't taken advantage of me at all.”

“Brother, what you said makes sense. Xu Jian was just watching the fun at that time. Now he is sitting in the Yamen, so it's best not to offend him.”

“Brother, what kind of gold bricks did Li Yuanfa talk about? Is this the case?”

The British prince Zhu Chi looked confused and turned to look at his old father.

 The old father's face was darker than the night.

"I haven't heard of it. Who knows who the fourth brother has made friends with outside," Zhu Chi said, and then asked the British father, "Father, have you heard the fourth brother mention it?"

 The British Duke tightened his lips and slowly shook his head.

 Zhu Chi saw this, and his doubts increased even more.

 Instinct told him that his father was not telling the truth.

“I'm going to Shuntian Mansion tomorrow, will you go?” he asked again.

The British Duke was silent for a while and said: "I'm going over here. It's not suitable to be light or heavy. I'm afraid Shan Shen still finds me annoying.

But you guys are too polite and won't get any advantage in Shan Shen's hands.

 It should be heavier.

Remember, you are there to reason, not to kowtow to apologize. Just don't follow Xu Guogong's dictating style. "

Zhu Chi asked: "Shan Shenruo will participate in another book..."

"The Lord is there, I will think of a way." The British Duke pointed to the study room. "Tomorrow, I will go to the imperial study to report the crime. I will go to the imperial study to talk to the Lord about the situation."

Brothers Zhu Chi nodded and said "Thank you for your hard work, Dad" one after another.

 After all, the old father had already been scolded in the imperial study room, and it was boring for Shan Shen to read the book again.

 Sent the two younger brothers out of the study, and Zhu Chi stayed behind to serve the British Duke with pen and ink.

The British Duke finished writing an excerpt of "fear and panic" with his pen trembling. After he put down the pen, his face was still ugly, but there was no trace of panic. "Do you have anything else to give me?" Zhu Chi asked.

 “As I get older, I have to think more,” said Yingying. “Don't worry, I'm afraid I've lost everything.”

After sending his son away, the British prince took a nap on the couch with his clothes on.

 When the time came, he went out to attend court.

 When I entered the court room, I received a lot of greetings, and some familiar people came over to ask about the situation carefully.

"Although it was said to be an accident, it still resulted in a death. It is appropriate to let him calm down in the Yamen for a few days."

 “The one who lives outside, alas, he is a stupid person doing stupid things!”

"Oh, how can we say it's excusable? My daughter-in-law has been ill for a long time, but this is definitely not the reason for her to raise an outsider. Even if you want someone who knows how to live and feel, you still have to ask your parents. His father-in-law's family must do things according to the rules and regulations, so what does this mean now!”

"I know your good intentions, but don't speak for that unscrupulous son. My old face is so ashamed of him! After a while, I went to the Holy Father to confess my sins to the Holy Father. I was at fault for not raising my son well!"

 Outside the door, Xu Jian stood for a while.

The British Duke's words reached his ears every word.

Beside, Shan Shen, who came a step late, listened half-way, without showing any emotion on his face. He only gave Xu Jian a thumbs-up with his clasped hands.

 It seems that Duke Fu has thought carefully.

 The auxiliary Duke told him last night that the British Duke would take a preemptive strike this morning and go to the Holy Father to cry miserably.

After all, it was a series of admissions, guilt, and tears. Taking advantage of his age, he knelt for an hour outside the royal study and was helped back tremblingly. The Holy Spirit might have softened his heart and would not have to do anything for an accident. The lawsuit over human life really depends on Zhu Cheng.

Once the Holy One shows his intention to stop, it would be difficult for Shuntian Mansion to investigate further.

Your Majesty doesn't want to investigate more. They are holding on to it like a dog or a mouse. What kind of thing is this?

Even though there are abundant confessions, there is a lack of evidence!

 Forbidden books, only things without their origins; the king's servants, no trace; gold bricks, whereabouts are unknown.

 Relying on the confession of the queen's wife?

Shan Shen is willing to believe her confession after she broke up with Zhu Cheng, but the British government can argue that he cannot believe it!

 Therefore, they had to hurry up and let the British Lord know that there were far-reaching implications behind this case.

 Before coming, Shan Shen had written the case file.

 In the morning, Shan Shen did not mention this matter.

A few old censors caught Zhu Cheng and scolded him. The British Duke took this opportunity to express his fear.

After going to court, the British Duke was in a hurry to go to see the saint. Before he could leave the Jinluan Hall, he was stopped by Shan Shen.

Shan Shen held the old man's arm and said, "My lord, I'm a lowly official, and I have to do my business. If I offend you, I'll forgive you for it."

"I feel extremely guilty for raising such an ignorant son and causing trouble to your Shuntian Mansion." The British official apologized profusely. Seeing that the officials around him were looking at him, it became increasingly difficult for him to get rid of Shan Shen, "I know , looking at my face, you made some conveniences for that unscrupulous man, just keeping an eye on him and not letting him really sit in the prison. What can I say, I know this is not good, but after all, he is his own son, so he can't see him. He suffers, alas!”

The British father stamped his feet one after another, and he looked like a helpless and innocent old father who was heartbroken.
