Ningzhou Fucheng, before Dafeng, had also been the capital of a country with a glorious history. It was also the central city of Dafeng. All the merchants coming and going came from the southeast, northwest, and connected to all directions, so the place was extremely prosperous. .
When Qin Liuxi and his entourage arrived, the Xiao family had already sent someone to wait. They were the most capable confidants around Governor Xiao. When they saw the Xiao family's carriage from afar, they immediately rode forward and jumped in front of Xiao Zhanrui's carriage. .
"The old slave has met the young master."
Xiao Zhanrui lifted the car curtain and said, "Uncle Jiang is here. No need to be polite. Is the house ready?"
"We are all ready. The master is also waiting in the mansion now." Butler Jiang looked at the back of the motorcade and took a step forward: "Master, who is that?"
"Right behind."
"Then let me go and see you first?"
Xiao Zhanrui nodded. Although Mu Xi was not allowed to make it public, the family knew he was coming and would certainly come forward to greet him, lest a certain dandy suddenly settle accounts with his wife.
Butler Jiang came up to greet him, but he didn't even see anyone. He didn't expect that a noble man like Mu Shizi would be so condescending as to meet him, a slave. He just gave his name in front of the carriage and kowtowed. Walk with your body bowed.
In fact, Mu Xiren was not in the carriage, but was staying in Qin Liuxi's car.
The carriages began to enter the city.
Mu Xi had no intention of taking a look outside. Ningzhou Mansion was prosperous and glorious, could it be as prosperous as Shengjing?
He was more concerned about the heroic soul who had followed Qin Liuxi on the road to pay homage, and he couldn't help but ask.
"The prince asked where they came from?" Qin Liuxi said calmly: "Return their bones to their hometown? Such soldiers died in the mountains for no reason. What can you think of? If they are rebels, you Dare you carve their names on their tombstones?"
Mu Xi's face was still a little immature. She frowned when she heard this, and after a long time she asked, "If they were rebels, would you collect their bodies?"
Qin Liuxi lowered his eyes, not knowing anything.
"Then they were wronged, what can you do? Reverse the case for them?" Qin Liuxi said with a smile: "If I tell you their origins, you might reverse the case? Instead of using the power in your hands to make your emperor The brother-in-law is pardoning, but it is about finding out the truth seriously, making them innocent, and letting the world know about it. This is called overturning the case."
Mu Xi pursed her lips.
"You also know that the former minister of Guanglu Temple made a mistake during the grand festival in July this year and was confiscated, right?"
"Qing Guanglu Temple? Qin Yuanshan's old man with a goatee?" Mu Xi thought for a while, and a short old man with a goatee appeared in her mind.
Qin Liuxi: "..."
Mu Xi said: "Of course I know about such a big thing. I'm still at the scene. It's a big sacrificial event. There's a big problem with the sacrifice. That old man is really looking for death. My brother-in-law didn't behead him on the spot to appease his ancestors. It's a blessing." He got lucky."
Qin Liuxi: He is young and ignorant, I will tolerate him!
"But why do you ask this? Qin Yuanshan's family was confiscated and exiled. Oh, no, the women and children seem to have been returned to their hometown. Qin Yuanshan should be lucky that Concubine Meng was so confident that she gave birth to a little prince. The brother-in-law wanted to bring good fortune to this boy. , so they were not beheaded to answer questions. Otherwise, this family would have been beheaded as sacrifices."
"I would like to ask, is Qin Yuanshan stupid for making such a low-level mistake in such a big sacrifice? He did not work in Guanglu Temple for only two days, but he made such a mistake in such a scene. Do you think there is something wrong with it?"
"You are in Xuanmen and don't know the depth of officialdom. I understand what you mean. Do you want to say that Qin Yuanshan was tricked and wronged?" Mu Xi said: "The only surname in the world is Qi, and the throne is Sitting alone, there are countless factions under the seat who are fighting each other. Do you think my emperor's brother-in-law doesn't know? He knows, but it is normal for factions to fight, and it is never possible for a powerful minister to dominate. Qin Yuanshan's matter, even if you say it is being Someone fell into a trap and slandered him. But it was his fault that he fell into the trap because of his ability."
"The emperor will not look at whether he was unjustly accused of this matter. He is in his position to pursue his own affairs. He did not notice this low-level mistake in this position. That is his problem. He is stupid. But the emperor will only look at the results. Only taking advantage of people in this position, rather than investigating and then doing things, is imperial power. Qin Yuanshan, I can only say that he is an unlucky guy, the officialdom is like this, there is strife everywhere, and there are twists and turns. Who has a higher rank? Who has the last laugh?"
As Mu Xi spoke, she saw Qin Liuxi looking at him intently, and couldn't help but be wary: "What are you looking at?"
Qin Liuxi smiled: "I thought that the dignified little overlord would only bully the market, eat, drink and have fun, but I didn't expect that you also have a brain!"
"You little bastard, you're scolding me again, I haven't tolerated you for a long time!" Mu Xi almost jumped up.
Qin Liuxi stretched out a finger, pressed his head down, and said, "Don't do it, I really praise you this time."
Look, you admitted it, you were scolding me before!
Mu Xi snorted and said: "After all, I grew up in the center of imperial power. How can I not know this and not like to use my brain?"
He pretended not to care, but the raised corners of his mouth betrayed him. It felt good to be praised.
Oh, hey, he's a little arrogant!
Qin Liuxi then said: "Since you understand what happened at Qin Yuan Mountain, then why don't you understand the soldiers buried there? Are they the ones who are unlucky because they are just being suppressed by the officialdom, as you said? As for your brother-in-law, he only cares about the results. Does he care whether it is because of party strife?"
Mu Xi was stunned for a moment.
After a long while, he said: "Soldiers who protect our country should not be like this. If there is really an injustice..."
"If there is really an injustice, can you overturn the case and overturn the original verdict? Like Qin Yuanshan, the Qin family has an injustice. Can you catch the people behind the scenes for them, and then rehabilitate them and return to their duties?" Qin Liu Xi said calmly.
Mu Xi suddenly felt something was wrong and said, "I remember, your surname seems to be Qin?"
"uh-huh?"
"Tell me about this case, who are you, the old man Qin Yuanshan, or what is your relationship with the Qin family?" Mu Xi stared at her, by the way, where is Qin Yuanshan's hometown from?
Quite keen.
Qin Liuxi smiled and said, "I told you to do it?"
Mu Xi was a little wary and said: "Even if they are rehabilitated, the most they can do is bring them back from their place of exile. If something as big as the high priest goes wrong, he, as an officer, will have nothing to do with it. It is absolutely impossible for him to be restored to his original position!"
One thing he didn't dare to say was that he suspected that she was setting him up, but there was no evidence!
Because Qin Yuanshan has a criminal record, who dares to let him stay in this position? If it happens again, the emperor himself is afraid that his ancestors will jump up and scold him for not knowing how to use people.
"You are indeed quite smart." Qin Liuxi praised him sincerely this time.
Mu Xi wanted to say something else, but the carriage stopped and Xiao Zhanrui's voice came from outside.
"Master, we have arrived at home. Please move into the house."
I just want to ask, were there any kids squatting in the trash cans in various districts yesterday to pick up leaks? Hahaha, what a joke~
