"emperor!"
In the imperial study room, on the imperial desk in front of Emperor Mingkang was an urgent document just sent from Zhili, Hebei Province.
Jia Qi took action in Zhili Prefecture, and Wei Yufeng died.
Moreover, two forces were involved, one was the Fuwei Escort Bureau and the other was the Fusang Force. The secret guards followed the clues and even implicated the capital in the end.
The complexity of the forces behind it made him feel a chill running down his spine.
Jia Qi did not hide this matter. The memorial was transferred from the ministry to the cabinet. Lin Ruhai mentioned it to him, but at that time, it was already the morning rooster crowing, and he forgot about it after the morning court.
Today he turned over the book and remembered this matter again.
"What's up!"
Although there was a reason for Jia Chu's move, it still made him a little unhappy. Wei Yufeng was not a seventh-grade official. Even if he was guilty, he should be tried by the court.
If this move is investigated carefully, it may be a crime of transgression.
But when he thought of Jia Qi's true identity again, he shook his head helplessly. If his son made a mistake, it was he who took care of him.
As soon as he threw the memorial aside, he heard Xu Yuantu say: "The champion of Chunyu Tower accidentally killed three princes."
Emperor Mingkang was stunned and seemed to think it was impossible. He had obviously asked Dai Quan to deliver the order! No matter how arrogant that kid Jia Qi is, he will never resist.
"Where's Dai Quan?"
Emperor Mingkang asked again.
Xu Yuantu cupped his hands and replied: "Eunuch Dai is still in the Hou Mansion and has not met with the Marquis. The Marquis left the Hou Mansion first, and the man also sent people to Chunyu Tower, but they have not arrived yet. Then Something happened to the three princes."
Upon hearing this answer, Emperor Mingkang's eyes curled up unconsciously.
Dai Quan went and found people, but these three princes still died in the end. Is this saying that this is how fate should be? Or was it premeditated?
Emperor Mingkang stopped talking, but he was more inclined to the former.
Although Jia Qi is a calm boy, there are times when things can't be smoothed out. He was worried about this situation, so he sent Dai Quan.
"What about the boy?"
Emperor Mingkang was silent for a moment and then spoke again.
"This...should be back home!!"
Xu Yuantu guessed.
Emperor Mingkang seemed to laugh in anger, this was a coincidence.
"Go and ask Jia Qi to come directly to the palace!"
"As well as the news about the murders of the princes, we should block it first."
Xu Yuantu's expression turned bitter. Chunyu Tower is a busy city, can it be closed off?
But since it was Emperor Mingkang's wish, he could only do it, but whether he could seal it was another matter.
On the other side, Xue Pan, who was still in shock, had just returned to Lixiang Garden when Aunt Xue's eyes suddenly became moist.
"You evildoer!! How could you get into such trouble? It scares me to death!!!"
"If you leave, how will your sister and I live in the future!!"
Aunt Xue stretched out her hand and slapped Xue Pan's chest hard, sobbing.
Baochai on the side also covered her face and cried. She had been worried about Xue Pan being detained before. Now that she finally returned home, her emotions could no longer be suppressed and she sobbed for a while.
As soon as the two women cried, Xue Pan immediately panicked. Even if Aunt Xue scolded him and hit him twice, he would not do this.
"Madam, sister, please stop crying. It's thanks to Brother Qi's help that I came back this time!!"
Seeing that his mother and sister couldn't hold back their voices, Xue Pan quickly changed the subject.
When it came to Jia Qi, Aunt Xue and Baochai really restrained themselves, and after a while there was no movement.
Taking the handkerchief handed over by the maid, Aunt Xue and Baochai wiped their faces, tidied them up again, and then asked again: "Pan'er, how is Brother Qi? Those princes haven't continued to make things difficult for you, right?" ?”
Hearing his mother's words, Xue Pan subconsciously swallowed. He didn't know if something happened to Jia Qi, but if something happened to those princes, it was still a big deal.
But remembering Jia Qi's warning before leaving, he trembled in his heart. This was the first time he had seen Jia Qi like that!
Fortunately, he thought he was a stupid overlord, so this time he almost wet his pants with fear.
"It's okay!"
Xue Pan's eyes unconsciously glanced elsewhere. Seeing Xue Pan's expression, Aunt Xue knew that there must be something hidden in it. As a son she watched grow up, how could his thoughts escape her own eyes.
Just when Aunt Xue was about to ask again, Baochai walked over slowly and pulled Aunt Xue's arm.
Aunt Xue felt the movement, turned around and looked at her daughter, and saw Baochai shaking her head gently, with a meaningful look in her eyes, and she couldn't help but feel moved.
After looking at Xue Pan again, I thought to myself that Xue Pan's refusal to tell the truth was probably not due to him, but because Jia Chun had specifically confessed it.
Otherwise, with his son's love of showing off, he might have been unable to bear it long ago, and he would have done it on his own without even asking.
"Brother, Brother Qi is not allowed to talk, right??"
Xue Pan laughed awkwardly, his sister was still so smart.
"Sister, please don't ask about this matter yet. As a brother, I really don't dare to say anything."
When Baochai heard this, a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart. In the final analysis, the matter was just that Jia Qi brought people back, and the people he came into contact with were those princes, and not much could happen during this period.
If these princes open their mouths like they did before, Jia Qi may spend a lot of money. Of course, it may also involve some official relationships. These things are not something that can be discussed casually.
Thinking of this, Xue Baochai couldn't help but comfort his mother.
"Mom, it would be great if you come back! My family and my aunt have been taking care of this matter. Now that my brother is back, what we need to do most right now is to say thank you."
When Aunt Xue heard Baochai's words, she sighed in her heart. Baochai's words were true. Although Rongguo's government did not provide any substantial help in this matter, the government also put in a lot of effort, and even Lin Ruhai made some contributions. force.
Now that Xue Pan has returned safely, they really need to pay their respects.
"Pan'er, you go and clean up, and then follow us to find the old lady, the second master, and the Lin family aunt. Thank you. For you, the family went to war and sent people to help. We are here to take advantage of it, so don't lose etiquette. .”
When Xue Pan heard Aunt Xue's words, although he agreed on the surface, he disagreed in his heart. He had met Jia Lian, but those princes did not give him any face. If it weren't for Jia Lian, he would probably still be tied up by Uncle Xue. !
"Mom, actually the person we should thank the most for this is Brother Qi. If it weren't for him, my son might not be able to come back!"
Aunt Xue smiled.
"That's natural, but the Marquis' Mansion is quite far away from here. Tomorrow we'll prepare some gifts and come to thank you in person!"
On the other side, Dai Quan was a little surprised to see Xu Yuantu, but when he heard that several princes were accidentally beaten to death by Jia Qi, his whole face turned green with fear.
On the other hand, Cai Luan's expression remained unchanged. It would eventually change one day.
