"People from Shanda! People from Shanda, stay!"
As soon as Sheng Yuan arrived at Dali Temple and stepped onto the corridor, she heard Zuo Si Cheng's call from behind.
"Chen Sicheng?" Sheng Yuan stopped when he heard the sound and looked over in confusion.
"Why are you calling me?!"
Although they both worked together in Dali Temple, she didn't have much contact with Zuo Si Cheng, and the occasional conversation was simple. She really couldn't figure out why he was looking for her in such a hurry.
"Mr. Shanda, please make this official easy to find!" Chen Sicheng took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing him like this, Sheng Yuan was even more surprised. After the other party's expression calmed down, he asked: "Chen Sicheng is looking for me in a hurry. Do you have anything important to say?"
Chen Sicheng nodded: "I received a scroll of files, which were submitted by the five prefectures of Southern Province."
"Five states in Southern Province?" Sheng Yuan remembered that these were the provinces that Zuosicheng was responsible for.
Chen Sicheng properly mentioned to her the provincial case files he was responsible for?
"This... what I mentioned may be offensive, but there is an inside story in this case. Please forgive me."
The more polite Chen Sicheng was, the more Sheng Yuan muttered: "Chen Sicheng has something to say, but I am already confused at this moment."
"One of the case files sent by the prefects of the five prefectures in the southern province involves teenagers surnamed Ning and An from Kyoto. Although the file says that the smuggling of coarse salt was done temporarily by their servants, the local supervisory department wrote to the people to complain , saying they shipped salt overseas.”
"Ning's surname, An's surname? Shipping salt overseas?" Sheng Yuan quickly found clues from personal connections based on the surname.
Anyu’s grandmother’s surname is Ning!
"Since the Yan Dynasty re-established the system of returning salt and iron to the public, and it has been passed down to this day, all three dynasties have punished them. Those who transport salt illegally can be killed according to the law!" Sheng Yuan ignored these three related households that could not be beaten, " Is the evidence in Mr. Chen’s hands conclusive? If the evidence is established, I should handle the matter impartially, and what should I do? Never ignore facts and legal justice because of friendship."
Sheng Yuan spoke righteously, but blocked everything Chen Sicheng wanted to say.
"..." Zuo Si Cheng originally wanted to persuade Sheng Yuan with good words.
He just wanted to establish a clear relationship with this colleague. After all, the two people in the case file were relatives of her fiancé.
One has not been out of the fifth server and the other has not been out of the third server. One is from the Qingliu Academic Family and the other is from the veteran Xungui Guogong. They are not easy to mess with.
If Sheng Yuan guarantees her marriage by marriage, depending on her status in front of the Emperor and the Queen Mother, I'm afraid there will be another entanglement.
Therefore, Chen Sicheng came to say hello so as not to be disturbed.
"If you are afraid that I will interfere with the administration of justice, don't worry, I won't say a word!" Sheng Yuan's assurance was resounding.
I was really relieved to hear it in Chen Sicheng's ears.
Probably out of the desire to reciprocate, he deliberately revealed the names of the boys named Ning and An to Sheng Yuan.
"An Hai?" Before Sheng Yuan could pay more attention to the man named Ning, he was attracted by the man with the same name as his cousin An Yu.
An Hai is the second son of the current An Guogong.
"As far as I know, the current Duke An Guo has a legitimate son with this name."
"Chen Sicheng, we scholars, ever since we entered the official school, we have heard from our teacher that the emperor commits the same crimes as the people when he breaks the law. This... the laws of Dachu are like this to the emperor, let alone what others say?"
After understanding her attitude, Chen Sicheng breathed a sigh of relief and immediately prepared himself to be selfless.
He was relieved, but Sheng Yuan didn't take it seriously. Both of them regarded the incident as an episode.
But he didn't expect that not long after the decree of exile was issued, Mrs. Lao An Guo Gong came to the door of, well, the door of Ancheng Hou's Mansion.
It's a coincidence that Anyu invited Sheng Yuan to the Hou Mansion to study the renovation on this day.
After all, this will be the main battlefield of their lives in the future, so naturally they both want to be comfortable.
When the nearly 70-year-old Mrs. An Guogong broke into the main courtyard, Sheng Yuan was at the desk revising the design drawings, while An Yu was leaning on the table, pointing and making additions.
Hearing the noise, the two of them raised their heads and looked at Mrs. Ning with an angry face outside the door, both of whom were a little surprised.
"Brother Yu, you are very leisurely! But you didn't know that your brother is about to be exiled and suffer hardship!" Mrs. Ning, leaning on a red sandalwood cane, sternly accused her as soon as she opened her mouth.
"???" Anyu was a little confused. When the old lady mentioned the words "brothers", what came to his mind were the two cousins.
"Don't say I didn't mention it to you, An Hai! Your second uncle's son." Sheng Yuan saw him like this and knew that he really didn't take it seriously. She reminded him while packing up the drawing paper.
"Oh." Anyu remembered and shrugged at Mrs. Ning who was approaching, "So you are talking about my cousin who sells coarse salt to the sea!"
He ignored the old lady's expression of wanting to eat people, and waved his hands nonchalantly: "Old lady, you said that your grandson is about to suffer, but you still have time to go out! Why don't you hurry back and pack his luggage? ?”
Mrs. Ning, who originally wanted to use Anyu as an entry point: "..."
She never expected that An Yu would disrupt her move "Xiang Zhuang's Sword Dance with the Intent on Pei Gong" before she could use it!
What's even more hateful is what this guy called her!
Old lady? ! He even refused to call his grandmother? !
Mrs. Ning suppressed her anger and looked at Sheng Yuan: "Sister Yuan, right? I heard that you and that Chen Sicheng are now in charge of Dali Temple? Do you know the case files of Brother Hai and Brother Cong? They are both. As a family, is it possible that you just watch Brother Yu’s younger brothers suffer?”
"Who is Brother Cong?" Sheng Yuan ignored her and looked at Anyu and asked.
"The grandson of the Ning family is the same age as Brother Hai." Hearing this, Anyu introduced it to Shengyuan like he was pouring beans.
Mrs. Ning, who had been ignored, almost fell over.
"Sister Yuan! I'm asking you a question!" Madam Ning said with a green face, holding back her anger.
"No, old man, who are you! If you don't agree with me here, just ask this and that! Do I know you?" Sheng Yuan put the drawings away, raised his eyelids and rolled his eyes.
In fact, Sheng Yuan actually met Mrs. Ning once when she was a child, but the two families rarely interacted with each other. If she hadn't had a better memory, she might not have recognized her.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Ning, who was more generous than the other, was really angry this time.
"You! You! You!" Mrs. Ning raised her cane and pointed at Sheng Yuan. She didn't say a complete sentence for a long time. She finally got lucky and managed to finish the second half of the sentence in one breath. "Is this the tutor of the Sheng family?!"
Sheng Yuan was not in a hurry when talking about other things, but if someone pointed her nose in and talked about tutoring, don't blame her for falling out.
"This old lady holds a cane and points it at others. Is she your tutor? When we meet, she talks about other people's tutors. Is this your tutor? If you don't know what to say, I don't mind changing it for you. crutch!"
