    ?

    King Tan of Beimo took a look at Xie Jingchen.

    He gently pinched the horse's belly, and the horse moved forward.

    After they left, there was no time for half a cup of tea. A man rode over with two guards.

    That person is none other than¡ª

    It was Qu Ming, the son of the Minister of Justice.

    Although they rode horses, they did not walk fast.

    It's a bit of a leisurely pace.

    "The young master rushed back quickly, but unexpectedly, he was delayed for a long time by King Yan of Beimo," the guard laughed.

    There are quite a few people brought by King Tan of Beimo, occupying the entire official road.

    Qu Ming knew that the envoys ahead were welcoming the King of Beimo.

    It's not good to go over quickly, just follow slowly behind.

    Fortunately, there is only three miles to go, and I will be able to go home soon.

    After traveling all the way, it is right to take a rest.

    Xie Jingchen sent the Northern Desert King to the palace, let them rest for a while, and then enter the palace later.

    Young Master Qu returned home directly.

    It was the first time he had left Beijing, and since he had been away for such a long time, Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment was worried day and night, and had trouble sleeping and eating.

    Seeing Eldest Young Master Qu come back, the boy was very excited, "Go and tell Madam, Eldest Young Master is back!"

    Eldest Master Qu got off his horse, stepped into the mansion, and asked the boy, "Where's father?"

    "Master just came back from the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment, and he is in the study right now," the young man said hurriedly.

    Young Master Qu went straight to the study of Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice.

    Knowing that his son was back, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment also breathed a sigh of relief.

    The mother is worried when the son travels thousands of miles.

    A father is not too far behind.

    But since I chose to hand over the errand to him, I have to bear with worrying.

    Otherwise, once he showed remorse, Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment could say that he had dozens of gray hairs.

    The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment sat at the desk with a serious face.

    Young Master Qu saluted him, "Father."

    "Yes," Minister of the Ministry of Punishments nodded.

    "How is the errand going?"

    Young Master Qu took the burden from the guards following him.

    The baggage contained all the evidence he found during this trip.

    He was ordered to check the part of Yong Chengbo's escort in the account book of Dongxiang Hou's robbery grain and grass office.

    ?After verification, the amount of grain and grass reported by Uncle Yong Cheng to the court was four times the amount of looting by the Dongxiang Hou.

    The difference in the number of them all fell into Yong Chengbo's pocket.

    Moreover, Uncle Yongcheng embezzled not only grain and silver, but also tributes.

    Speaking of tribute¡ª¡ª

    Minister of the Ministry of Punishment frowned, "What tribute?"

    Young Master Qu hurriedly said, "At that time, Qingyun Mountain's bandits were famous far and wide, and there was a batch of tributes eager to send to Beijing, but they didn't dare to pass by the foot of Qingyun Mountain alone, so they took a boat transporting grain and grass."

    "After the grain and grass were robbed, the tribute disappeared. According to the boatman on the boat at that time, after Qingyun Mountain robbed the grain and grass, he once saw a few government servants carrying the big box out of the cabin at night."

    Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment couldn't let go of his brows.

    Because there is no tribute recorded in Dongxiang Hou's account book.

    The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishments checked the files, but did not find that Yong Cheng Bo had reported that the tribute had been robbed.

    Ke Eldest Young Master Qu not only found out, but also made a detour to the place where the tribute was paid for interrogation, and confirmed that the tribute was true.

    It is a serious crime to lose the tribute, and if it is serious, you will be sentenced to death.

    The emperor did not convict them, they were so grateful, and they were very grateful to Uncle Yong Cheng for his kind words for them.

    A typical case of being sold and returned to others.

    The embezzlement of the tribute alone was enough for the emperor to get angry and seize the title of Uncle Yongcheng.

    "You go to see your mother, take a good rest, and follow me into the palace for a banquet later," said the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment.

    Eldest Master Qu resigned.

    The Minister of the Ministry of Justice looked at the evidence, and then took the evidence to Dongxiang Hou's Mansion.

    Chen Xiangxuan, the inner room.

    Su Jin was wearing a light blue dress and stood in front of the bronze mirror.

    Xing'er looked around and said, "The girl looks good in this outfit."

    Su Jin touched her waist and said, "Which outfit don't look good on me?"

    "The girl is beautiful, she looks good in any outfit," Xing'er said.

    "Why doesn't the girl wear that new suit?" Xing'er was puzzled.

    Girls love to wear new clothes.

     Every time Xiu Niang and his wife made new clothes for her, she couldn't wait to try them on.

    This time, he was indifferent.

    Su Jin glanced at the skirts on the tray, and said, "It's hot weather, I don't know how much sweat is on the clothes made by the embroiderer, and I will wear them after washing."

    Even if it is a dress made in winter, it should be washed before wearing it.

    Xing'er felt that what the girl said was reasonable, so she took out the tray and handed it to the maidservant.

    After getting dressed, he leaned on the small couch and read half a book. It was almost time, so he took Xing'er to Qihe Hall.

    Myolie was wearing the one the princess made for her.

    Myolie has always been reluctant to wear it because of the patterns embroidered on it.

    Entering the palace for a banquet today, such a grand day, must be as good-looking as possible.

    The princess of Nanzhang was ill, and the concubine was pregnant, so she didn't go to the palace to attend the banquet.

    The old lady is too old to go.

    But even so, there are still a lot of people going to the banquet.

    Seeing Su Jin walk in, he couldn't help turning his eyes around her twice more.

    This attire complements her skin as creamy, bright and charming.

    Especially the agility revealed between the brows is far beyond Xie Jinyu and the others.

    The small bubbles of jealousy in the hearts of several people surged upwards.

    The old lady looked up and down, and said, "This dress is not bad, but the embroiderer doesn't seem to be made by the embroiderer in the mansion?"

    Mama Wang glanced at the old lady.

    Su Jin replied, "My mother made this for me."

    "Madam Dongxiang Hou's needlework is really good," the old lady praised.

    It is rare for Su Jin to hear the old lady praise her.

    This time, he not only praised her, but even her mother.

    Is this the sun coming out from the west?

    However, the old lady only said one sentence and didn't say anything more.

    But Su Jin felt that there must be something wrong.

    For a person who wants to kill her, there is no guarantee that behind every abnormal word she said is not a trap.

    Only by being careful can you sail for thousands of years.

    Unable to figure it out, Su Jin shook his head and put the matter behind him.

    Dongxianghou Mansion.

    In the study.

    Dongxiang Hou looked gloomy after reading the evidence.

    Although I always knew that I was a bandit and took the blame for many people.

    But it is the first time that there is such conclusive evidence.

    He looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and said, "Immediately lead someone to search Uncle Yongcheng's mansion."

    Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, ""

    "Is this too urgent?" said the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment.

    Confiscation of a uncle's house requires the approval of the emperor.

    Dongxiang Houdao, "You and I don't know about the tribute. Uncle Yongcheng didn't report such a big loss of tribute. There must be something wrong with it."

    "If Uncle Yong Cheng knows the news and destroys the tribute, just lying about the food and grass will not kill him."

    There are too many false reports of food and grass.

    Yong Chengbo is not the only one.

    When there are too many people, it is impossible for the emperor to behead them all.

    What's more, Dongxiang Hou firmly believed that the person who benefited the most from lying about the robbed grain and grass was Chong Guogong.

    Duke Chongguo has military power under his command, so if the emperor wants to deal with him, he must take the overall situation into consideration.

    In this regard, Dongxiang Hou did not report too much expectation.

    However, Yongcheng Bo Shizi almost killed Su Jin.

    Uncle Yongcheng's son is suffering the consequences of his own death, and he deserves to die, but it is impossible for Uncle Yongcheng not to avenge his son's murder.

    With such a person staring at his daughter from behind, Hou Dongxiang was having trouble sleeping and eating, and he couldn't get rid of his unhappiness.

    What's more, Bo Yongcheng is still the confidant of Lord Chongguo.

    Dongxiang Hou Zhengchou couldn't find a chance to catch Chong Guogong, so this might be a good opportunity.

    Some things must be done quickly.

    One step slower, and all previous efforts may be wasted.

    "Qu Shangshu is used to following the rules, but I will take care of this matter, you just do it," Dongxiang Hou said.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
