Thinking carefully about today's incident, it is full of strangeness.
The first was the group of scholars who gathered to make trouble. Although the charges listed by Wang Zhong seemed reasonable and well-founded, the actual evidence could not withstand scrutiny, and they could not do anything to Jiang Han.
As long as Jiang Han ignores it, it will naturally calm down.
So the real method is Liu Zhiming, to anger those scholars with Liu Zhiming's death!
Then, Liu Zhiming was killed by Qin Muqing's sword.
This Liu Zhiming is pitiful and hateful. I'm afraid he won't understand why he died when he died.
But this is not enough. Ningguo Mansion will always find a way to put a murder case to rest.
But the appearance of Lu Tongpan brought a huge crisis to Ningguo Mansion.
Because he captured a dozen scholars, even though those scholars were people who deliberately provoked emotions.
But if something happens to these people, it will definitely arouse the anger of the scholars in Yunmeng Mansion!
At that time, Ningguo Mansion will be labeled as colluding with the government, killing scholars, and covering the sky with one hand.
And the patrol envoy took advantage of the situation and intervened, which was enough to uproot the Ningguo Mansion!
If he hadn't confirmed repeatedly that Lu Tongpan was really Qin Zhong's friend, Jiang Han would have really suspected that this person was here to harm Ning Guofu.
Qin Fen frowned and said, "Isn't that true? There is no way Lu Tongpan could kill those dozen people."
Jiang Han said: "What they want to deal with is the Ningguo Mansion. Naturally, there are ways to cause trouble for a dozen scholars in prison."
Qin Fen said: "Even if that happens, Magistrate Jia will not deal with us."
Speaking of this, Qin Fen suddenly shut up and thought of Tang Yi, the inspector-general.
The rank of the patrol envoy is not high, but his power is supreme.
In Dayu, there is a saying that "be light when you are an official, be serious when you are an envoy". When necessary, the patrol envoy can handle major cases, and everyone below the prefect follows his orders.
Ning Ying looked at Qin Zhong and said, "Hurry up and send a letter to Chengguo Mansion. If your elder brother takes action, our Ningguo Mansion will be safe and sound."
Qin Zhong sighed deeply in his heart. Their real target was not Ning Guo Mansion. What could Ning Guo Mansion have to deal with? These people used Ning Guofu to deal with Cheng Guofu.
Although he and Qin Zhen are brothers, they have not walked together for many years because of that incident. Although the brothers are still reconciled on the surface, in fact they are almost broken.
It's hard to say how much family affection there is, not to mention that the real target in this round is Cheng Guofu.
Ning Ying saw the hesitation in Qin Zhong's heart and said, "Forget it, you don't have to repair the book. I'll ask my mother-in-law's family for help."
Mother-in-law Ning Ying's eldest brother is in the Imperial College.
But Jiang Han knew that his mother-in-law had not been home for many years, and there was no correspondence with the elder brother. There was still a question mark as to whether he would help.
Qin Muqing said: "No, it can't be...Shouldn't I rush out today?"
She also realized that today's matter could have been ignored behind closed doors. It was because she was so angry that she went out and killed her, which led to such an incident.
Miss Qin suddenly fell into deep self-blame.
Jiang Han said: "It's none of your business. Even if you don't go out, they will do more extreme things to provoke you to go out. Liu Zhiming will still die at the door of Ningguo Mansion. If Lu Tongjian doesn't arrest people, there will be others."
Qin Zhong said: "Han'er, who do you think is dealing with Ning Guofu in this matter?"
Qin Zhong already had some guesses and wanted to compare them with Jiang Han.
Jiang Han said: "Tang Yi, the Yin family and the Wang family."
"The Yin family wants to avenge Yin Tingli. The Yin family will blame Yin Tingli's death on me. Tang Yi wants to eliminate an enemy for the prince, so his goal is not only the Ningguo Mansion, but also the Lacheng State Mansion. Get into the water. The Wang family is just waving the flag and shouting, Wang Zhong is a member of the Wang family. In addition, I am afraid that the Japanese Inspectorate will also take action. "
"Although the patrol envoy can take over Yunmeng Mansion, he is not one of his own people after all, so it is not easy to use. However, the Japanese patrol department, which helps the prince eliminate dissidents, is the best department to do this kind of thing."
After listening, Qin Zhong, Qin Fen, and Ning Ying all looked ugly.
Although these are just Jiang Han's guesses, this guess is not unreasonable.
Qin Muqing said: "Wait a minute, why don't we have people go to the Yamen now and ask Lu Tongpan to release all those people?"
Jiang Han looked at Qin Muqing's face. Yes, Miss Qin, who always likes to use force to speak, can also use her brain.
"Even if we let them go, they may disappear inexplicably, die, or get into trouble after being captured by the Yamen, and the debt will still be borne by us."
Qin Muqing looked pale and said, "Is there nothing we can do?"
Without the token in my arms, there really is no way, but as the mysterious envoy of the Li Ming Division and the silver sword of the Night Patrol Division, I might be able to counterattack an army... Jiang Han said: "Of course there is a way."
"What can we do?" Qin Zhong, Qin Fen, and Ning Ying all looked at him.
Miss Qin was also watching him.
Jiang Han said slowly: "In the final analysis of this matter, it is not Tang Yi who wants to deal with us, but the prince who wants to deal with Cheng Guofu. Ning Guofu cannot fight with the prince no matter what, because it is not of a high standard.
Cheng Guofu may be able to do it, but..."
Jiang Han didn't say anything from behind, "So, we need to find someone who can compete with the prince as a backer to keep us safe."
Qin Zhong and Qin Fen both thought of the fourth prince Tang Zhongjing, and he was the only one who could compete with the prince.
"Asking the Fourth Prince to help us? Impossible." Butler Qin shook his head.
In fact, even the Chengguo Mansion might not be involved in this matter. The fourth prince who was far away in Kyoto had no connection with them, so why did he waste so much effort to help them?
Jiang Han said: "If the benefits are big enough, the Fourth Highness will end up playing games with the prince."
He didn't say that he was the Silver Sword of the Night Watch Division. To a certain extent, he was actually the Fourth Prince's man - even though he was an undercover agent.
But a mere silver sword couldn't let the Fourth Prince save Ning Guofu.
Therefore, a sufficiently large benefit is required.
Jiang Han has already thought of this benefit.
Qin Zhong obviously couldn't completely believe Jiang Han. In the end, he prepared a letter and asked someone to send it to Chengguo Mansion immediately.
Mother-in-law Ning Ying gritted her teeth and wrote a letter to send to her brother.
Jiang Han did not stop the two of them. He also wanted to see what kind of state Ning Guo Mansion was in and whether anyone would help.
…
In the Yamen prison.
Judge Lu Tong was sitting in front of the desk drinking hot tea. Today's incident was not a big deal in his eyes.
If you beat someone to death, pay the money and settle the matter.
A dozen or so troublemaking scholars will naturally become more honest after being detained for a few days.
This matter will die down soon.
And he also sold Ning Guo Mansion. Ning Guo Mansion will also remember his love.
The son-in-law of Ningguo Mansion is no ordinary person... Although Lu Tongpan is not good at being an official, he has a vicious vision!
This Jiang Han will become prosperous sooner or later!
If you sell him a favor now, you might get unexpected gains in the future.
"Sir, what should we do with those people?" At this time, Tong Jun, a member of the judicial staff, came to Lu Tongxian.
He is Lu Tongpan's deputy.
Judge Lu Tong said: "Interrogate who asked them to incite those scholars!"
Tong Jun said: "Yes, sir, do you want to be punished?"
Judge Lu Tong drank tea and said without raising his head: "It's okay to use some punishment, don't go too far."
"Okay!" Tong Jun turned and left.
