Chapter 29 I don't want to get involved

On a normal day, such a report would not be a deterrent to the two big bosses in the county, but since the He family wants to investigate and deal with Lieutenant Dong as soon as possible, this clue is undoubtedly a breakthrough.

On the fourth day, Bao Rong, the judicial officer of Kuaiji County, joined the army and rushed to Shanyin County in person. He was a close friend of Secretary He and was one of the "Four Scholars in Wuzhong" together with Secretary He.

Kuaiji County’s most powerful aid.

After Bao Canjun had a secret meeting with the county magistrate, he summoned Zhang Mo, the criminal Cao official, and then captured Zuo Xian Cheng and Dong Xian Wei in one fell swoop.

After a surprise interrogation overnight, Dong Xianwei and Zuo Xiancheng confessed to the unjust case that they had jointly decided. After the unjust case was confirmed, Bao Canjun and others obtained the legal qualifications to knead the two men at will. But this is not the point. The point is that the civet cat

One thing, who is entrusted by Lieutenant Dong County?

Everything was in a hurry, and Bao Canjun lived up to his expectations. On the afternoon of the fifth day, Dong County Lieutenant finally spat out: The demon cat was indeed entrusted to him by someone else and sent to the He family. The person who entrusted it was Xue Pan, the prefect of Kuaiji County.

A guest of.

At the same time, Bai Gongfeng, who went to Dongyang in Wuzhou with the He family, also bought the news from Wei Changqiu's friend Liu Xuanji for a lot of money.

That demon cat was raised by Liu Xuanji!

Liu Xuanji often made a small living by raising and selling monsters and spiritual materials. Before that, a monk from the county accidentally saw his cat and bought it at a high price.

According to Liu Xuanji's description, Bai Gongfeng was convinced that this monk was an acquaintance of his many years ago who was now making offerings at the mansion of Prefect Xue.

After the two clues came together, a long discussion was held in the backyard of the He family. At the end of the discussion, Jin Chongfeng's face was glowing red, and his steps were three points lighter when he came back.

That night, the chef of the He family specially brought a table of wine and food to Jin Shangfang, as well as a jug of imperial wine, which was a gift from His Majesty when Secretary He resigned and went into seclusion. There were only twelve bottles, which shows that Secretary He was satisfied with Jin Shangfang's investigation of the matter.

.

Jin Zongfang invited Gu Zuo to join him at the table. Gu Zuo sat half a chair sideways. Sitting like this, his body was tired, but his heart was filled with joy. He picked up the wine pot and filled it for Jin Zongfang and himself, and then waited for Jin Zongfang to start the banquet.

Jin Zongfang raised his glass and said: "Huaixian, you have worked hard these days. This is the royal wine specially sent by the boss. You and I drink it together, and I want to thank you."

Gu Zuo bent down and raised his glass: "Thank you, senior. It's all the seniors who are in charge. The juniors are just attached to the tail. Being able to taste imperial wine is all thanks to the seniors."

"You are the key to this matter. Without the clues you provided, how could we have found out so quickly?"

"It just happened, it was just a coincidence."

When Gu Zuo drank the imperial wine, he felt a sense of coolness, which was different from the ordinary drinks he had drunk. This coolness immediately turned into a force of spiritual power, which was absorbed by the Dantian Qi sea and transformed into the soul-searching essence he practiced.

gas.

"This..." Gu Zuo smacked his lips and said in disbelief: "Is this wine the rumored spiritual wine?"

Jin Gongfeng smiled and said: "How?"

Gu Zuo sighed: "It's wonderful! The juniors can't bear to raise their glasses anymore."

Jin Gongfeng was in a good mood, and so was Gu Zuo. His good fortune came from the collapse of the mountain in his eyes, Dong County Lieutenant. Without this mountain, and relying on the He family, he could continue in Shanyin County.

I can live a peaceful life, and it seems that I don’t even have to pay the usual monthly payment.

After drinking several glasses of imperial wine, in addition to gaining spiritual power, the excitement that wine can bring to people has not diminished at all. The friendship between the two of them who "fight side by side" day and night has also been consolidated in the wine.

Now that they have a friendship, Gu Zuo can't help but be curious: "Senior, what does Prefect Xue mean by this move? Why does he want to go against the He family?"

Jin Congfeng smiled and said: "This matter involves a lot. Originally, I shouldn't say more to you, but you are also a key witness. If necessary, you will have to appear in court. I will tell you something in advance so that you know what is going on.

The whole story is not an exaggeration.”

Gu Zuo nodded immediately and promised not to talk nonsense outside.

Jin Gongfeng asked: "Do you know who Prefect Xue belongs to?"

Gu Zuo joked: "How does this junior know the secrets of the court? Please ask the seniors to clear up the confusion."

Jin Gongfeng took two bites of the food slowly and said: "Before Mr. He resigned, he had a very unpleasant quarrel with Yang Xiang. In order to ease the relationship between Mr. He and Yang Xiang, the empress spent a lot of effort and even gave two gifts as a gift.

A civet cat was given to the young master, and Prefect Xue replaced it with a demon cat, just waiting for an opportunity."

"Is that what senior said last time, when is the time for Sima Daoyin, the Supervisor of Longrui Palace, to perform his duties?"

"Yes, when Sima Daoyin was performing his duties, the seal in the demon cat was lifted. He was caught off guard and was bound to cause a big mess in Shanyin. With the evidence from the Sima Prison, it was confirmed that the empress used the demon cat to assassinate Mr. He.

!”

Gu Zuo asked cautiously: "So, our boss is neither a member of Prime Minister Yang nor a member of Prime Minister Li?"

Jin Gongfeng sighed: "That's why it's difficult to do. The boss doesn't want to form a party and doesn't stand on either side, so he has to resign and return to his hometown. But who knows that everyone has resigned, and they still refuse to let it go, alas..."

"Loyal and good ministers, most of them are like this..."

"Don't talk nonsense! Your Majesty is in trouble too."

"Yes, this junior made a mistake. Then... what should we do next?"

Jin Gongfeng sneered: "Although the boss said he was resigning, not everyone can step on him. A mere Xue Pan is using the boss as a stepping stone. He overestimates himself too much! We will respond quickly this time, Xue Pan

The evidence that I want to frame you is already conclusive, so I will report it to His Majesty and let him die without a burial place!"

Gu Zuo asked: "Who does Prefect Xue belong to? Is he Prime Minister Li?"

Jin Gongfeng coughed dryly and said: "What I mean, Sir, the implication is too wide and it will be difficult to investigate. Just go to Xue Pan and don't mention Prime Minister Li."

Gu Zuo breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't want to be involved in such a big incident. Being able to end it earlier would of course be the best result for him. Li Xiang, Yang Xiang, the empress, Sima Supervisor, all of them sounded like scalps.

It's numb, he really doesn't want to get involved.

The two drank freely, and after drinking the royal wine, they served the old Osmanthus wine brewed by the He family. Although it had no spiritual power, the wine was even more powerful. They drank until the moon was high, then they went back to their rooms and fell asleep soundly.

This night's hangover was also the reason why Gu Zuo was in a relaxed mood. The grievances he carried were cleared away, and the road would be smooth from now on.

He didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning. After washing up, he went to see Jin Zongfeng in the opposite room. Jin Zongfeng was not there, and he didn't know where he had gone. Gu Zuo walked around the courtyard a few times, relaxing his muscles and bones, and thinking about it at the same time.

Your own spiritual path.

Just as he was about to go back to his room to practice his dagger, he saw Jin Zongfeng coming back, sitting down on the wooden bench, with his hands on his knees and his eyes straight.

Gu Zuo approached: "Senior?"
Chapter completed!
