Chapter 69 There are lovers in the world, how can they finally get married?
After venting her anger, Shen Hua was stunned for a while. She sniffed and spoke each word as if she had used all her strength.
The voice is very soft, as if it is blown away by the wind.
"After my brother passed away, and after Sister Xiao fell seriously ill, she originally wanted to live her whole life as an ancient Buddha in the Qingdeng Mountains. She didn't want to... get married."
She was so deeply in love with her brother.
Shen Hua stood up with her heavy body, letting the mattress fall to the ground, and walked slowly to the candlelight.
Under the flickering lights, her face became increasingly pale. The girl smiled desolately.
"There are lovers in the world, how can they finally get married? There are men who are good-looking and unsympathetic, but my brother is a fool. Obviously, he passed the examination and became a talented person at a young age, which is rare in the world. Ah. My mother also asked a Taoist priest to calculate the good time and auspicious days, so she sent Po Xi to knock on Xiao’s door.”
Who would have thought that the flowing banquet hosted by the Shen family for celebration would end up being a funeral banquet.
There was a charcoal fire burning in the house, and Shen Hua was not wrapped in mink hair. The woman looked tender and graceful, with a curvy waist and guarded temples.
The room was silent for a while, with only the crackling candle burning, intruding into the dullness.
She raised her hand without hesitation, let the fire engulf her, and burned the letter with the Wei family's address clean.
Yicui whispered: "Madam."
Shen Hua's eyes were clear and transparent: "The Wei family is not a high-ranking family, so it is not difficult to find out. It only costs a little money."
She said softly but firmly: "But I don't know how to check."
Yi Cui was startled.
Shen Hua said helplessly: "Sister Xiao is living well, so I pray for her. Even if her life is not good, I will never interfere just because of her temper. How will she cope with this? My surname is Shen. , her surname is Xiao, how can we help her with her identity? Shen Zhi's sister? If her husband's family knows about it, the situation will become even more difficult. "
She spoke slowly but thoughtfully.
"Even if there are groups of concubines in the backyard, Sister Xiao is the head wife and is listed in the genealogy. My aunt and concubines have to be honest and serve tea in front of Sister Xiao. If she is smart, why should she remember a dead person again?"
Life is too long. There is no need to linger in the same place like her. It is time to move on.
"She has a good appearance and elegant manners. If the master of the Wei family is not blind, he will not treat her badly."
She had to take Xiao Sesu into consideration in this matter. After all, Xiao Sesu was already the wife of the Wei family.
So what if it’s difficult to calm down?
How many things in the world do everything go as you wish?
She couldn't hit this wall, just for pleasure.
Shen Hua pretended to be relaxed: "Let's get pens, ink, paper and inkstones."
She had to reply to Zheng Qianyu.
Estimating half a stick of incense, Shen Hua came to the desk. The incense burner was burning, with smoke curling up and a faint fragrance floating around.
While leaning against the green to study ink, Shen Hua flattened the rice paper.
The small regular script written by Shen Hua is compact, soft and beautiful.
First, let Zheng Qianyu stop paying attention to Xiao Sese.
Then he gave a rare greeting to Zheng Qianyu's sister-in-law, and briefly mentioned that the rice sold to Shen Qu and his second house could be 10% more expensive.
Then, he mocked without mercy.
——Go to the street and ask a beggar, maybe his handwriting is better than yours.
——After seeing my reply, do you feel ashamed?
——I advise you to find a copybook, practice it, and just write it to me. If you write it to the man you like in the future, you will never want to get married in this life. You can sell rice to the Zheng family for the rest of your life.
So mean.
Finally, she mentioned the customs and customs of Shengjing.
When writing, think briefly and leave a sentence at the end.
——You are well, don’t think about it.

Dali Temple
The prison was dark, with only a few weak lights on the walls. The officials dragged the stiff and smelly corpse and shouted respectfully as they passed by Cui Yun: "Your Excellency."
Cui Yun nodded, walked in without squinting, and finally entered the interrogation room.
Jiang Zhaozheng was frowning. Hearing the movement, he raised his eyes to see who was coming and stood up hurriedly.
He is old enough to be Cui Yun's father. He always has a straight face, but in front of Cui Yun, he can smile like a chrysanthemum.
It can be seen that he is sincerely convinced by this young minister of Dali Temple.
"I was about to report to you that the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment personally handed over the case report to the central reserve at noon. You were not here. I thought about it and thought that as long as we in Dali Temple turn a blind eye, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will not
Hold on tight and won’t let go.”
Cui Yun raised his eyelids and there was a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.
The central governor was a subordinate of the prince, enriching his own pockets and engaging in corruption and bribery.
It was the governor who was trying the case, but he did not dare to offend the prince, so he smoothly transferred it to the Ministry of Punishment.
As for the Ministry of Punishments and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they bent their backbones and intended to sell things to the East Palace.
Cui Yun was neither quick nor slow, and was extremely cool: "The crimes committed by the Central Reserve should be punished according to the law. How can we show favoritism?"
"The prince tried to cover up the sky with one hand, but Dali Temple followed the sacred order."
"The Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate have three departments co-located for the purpose of impeaching hundreds of officials and clarifying the grievances. Even if the prince finds a scapegoat, how can he be acquitted if he interrogates the prisoners and clears the case files?
The matter of Chu should be re-examined."
His attitude is very clear, rigid yet disciplined and tough.
Although the former minister of Dali Temple single-handedly promoted Jiang Zhao, Jiang Zhao could not deny it against his will, and the former minister of Dali Temple would also be biased in his actions.
The road to officialdom is muddy and dirty. Who can stay alone and remain unsullied?
Cui Yun has been in office so far, and he has no regrets, but how long can he last?
Jiang Zhao didn't know, but at least he was handling the case under Cui Yun at the moment, and there was no need for false socializing. Even if someone of higher rank wanted to use force to get him to fool the case, Cui Yun would still be there to take care of it.
All he has to do is handle the case! Reveal all the ugliness.
Cui Yun explained the purpose of his visit: "There is no rush for the Central Reserve. Let's stay away for the time being."
The only one who is in a hurry is Prince Ji Zhen.
He looked calm, but what he said made Jiang Zhao stunned.
"Wei Yingying, the daughter of the Minister of Industry and Commerce, has disappeared, and the drug 'Buhuo' remains in her house."
Jiang Zhaojing: "Why are you not confused again!"
Don't blame him for that.
Buhuo appeared in the palace more than ten years ago. At that time, he was brought along by the former minister of Dali Temple to investigate. Therefore, he knew some secrets in the palace.
Investigation into this matter was fruitless, and countless officials were demoted out of anger. Even the former Minister of Dali Temple was accused of incompetence by Emperor Geng in front of important ministers.
Jiang Zhao could already imagine: "The emperor must be furious."
Cui Yun nodded: "That's right, so the Emperor ordered the Criminal Department of Dali Temple to put down everything and focus on the investigation."
Jiang Zhao: "My subordinates know."
After Cui Yun gave his instructions, he heard Jiang Zhao report a few minor things about Dali Temple. He didn't stay too long. After leaving Dali Temple, he was about to return home when he was greeted by the gentle-faced Eunuch Peng.
blocked.
"Master Cui, the Crown Prince wants to see you. Please."
What he said was an irresistible request, not a thought.
Cui Yun looked calm.
In terms of stability, Ji Zhen is not as good as the fourth prince Ji Wang. He is so impatient.
When it comes to means, it's even worse.
It’s no wonder that Emperor Yu was more partial to the fourth prince.
