Chapter 69 This person is my dearest relative, friend, and brother.

Early the next morning, the report from the censor who patrolled the city was delivered to the emperor's desk.

The emperor was furious when he was asked about this matter, and immediately ordered a department to investigate in detail.

At the same time, Li Yunze was drinking tea leisurely in a wing of Wannian County Houya.

"My good nephew." Liang Erhe, who was sitting opposite him, gritted his teeth and said, "I need my good nephew to help me with my treachery."

When Liang Erhe got the news last night, he was so angry that he wanted to kill that prodigal Liang Huairen.

But there was nothing he could do. He was busy working as an official, and he had only had a son like this for many years, so he had to save him.

Compared to Liang Huairen, who generally didn't understand anything, Liang Erhe quickly grasped the crux of the problem after getting angry.

The only witness at the scene!

If Li Yunze insists that Liang Huairen pushed Jia Zhen downstairs on purpose, it will become a solid case.

But if Li Yunze said that the two got into an argument while drunk and there was a misunderstanding between them, then there would still be room for change.

He rushed to Wannian County in the middle of the night to try to get around, but unfortunately Li Yunze knew this very well and didn't see him at all. Moreover, the censor patrolling the city closely guarded Liang Huairen and did not give him a chance to see outsiders.

In the morning, when the patrol censor rushed to the imperial city with the evidence, Liang Erhe had the opportunity to ask Li Yunze for help.

"That's my good brother." Li Yunze, with a look of grief and anger on his face, took a sip of tea, "How could I just watch him die in vain?"

Liang Erhe, who was sitting still, tried to control his emotions: "My nephew, I have something to tell you. The general of Guiyang Prefecture is vacant, and no one in the court is willing to go. My nephew took the initiative to ask for the imperial examination, and the emperor was very relieved. This matter can be

It’s done.”

"Doesn't Grand Sima know that he is my brother?" Li Yunze, whose planning in the past few days has reached the stage of reaping the fruits, smiled more and more kindly. "How can I let my good brother die in vain for the sake of a mere future?"

"Good nephew." There was a slight sweat on Liang Erhe's forehead, and he gritted his teeth hard, "I am not used to eating the local specialties you sent to the house the day before yesterday, so you should take them back."

When he said these words, Liang Erhe's heart was bleeding.

I spent all my connections to help Li Yunze clear his joints, but in the end I didn't get a penny. How could I not feel heartbroken?

However, Li Yunze, who had finished eating one end and then the other, was not so easy to get rid of.

He has long said that his money is not so easy to get.

Liang Erhe, who was anxious to get angry, couldn't hold it back in the end, "My dear nephew, if you need anything, please speak up."

"Da Sima, you have misunderstood. This person is my dearest relative, friend, and brother." Li Yunze finally put down the tea bowl and nodded sincerely, "I have to pay more."

Liang Erhe suddenly slapped the handrail and stood up straight away.

You use up your connections to help him, and not only confiscates his money, but you also have to repay him?!

The world is so vast and full of wonders.

Today, Liang Erhe had his butt pulled with a knife, which opened his eyes. He actually still does this kind of thing!

Only then did Liang Erhe truly understand the young man in front of him.

Who is this idiot? He is clearly a cunning fox!

I can't say that I was really tricked this time.

Looking at Liang Erhe with a look of realization on his face, Li Yunze shook the hem of his clothes and crossed his legs.

He has been busy for a few days and has made arrangements to eat at home and eat at home. Now is the harvest season.

"Master Liang, I am a very principled person." Li Yunze said calmly, "I have given you so much souvenirs, and you will send back double the amount. We all come and go, so we can get along more easily in the future."

Liang Huairen was silent for a long time, and finally a word popped out from between his teeth.

"good."

"Please write a handwritten letter from Da Sima. In addition, I also need Da Sima to help with something."

When they came out of Wannian County, Wang Xifeng and Ping'er were already waiting outside.

"You're finally out." Wang Xifeng hurriedly stepped forward. "The whole house is in chaos."

To put it bluntly, if the patriarch of the Jia family and the inheritor of the Ningguo Mansion died, how could there not be chaos?

"I still have some things to do, you go back first."

"Is there anything more urgent than this?" Wang Xifeng stamped her feet anxiously, "The old lady and the others are waiting for you."

"What do women know about official matters?" Li Yunze waved his hand, took the reins from Xing'er and got on his horse, "I'll go back when I'm done."

Jia Zhen finished eating, and so did Liang Erhe.

But the other one just opened its mouth and didn't have time to eat.

Anshanfang Qin Mansion.

Qin Ye was on duty today and had already gone to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry. The people who came out to receive him were Qin Zhong and Qin Keqing.

Li Yunze looked solemn, and the first thing he said when they met was, "Something happened."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two siblings suddenly changed.

"Last night, I asked Brother Zhen to come forward and hosted a banquet for Liang Huairen at Zuiyue Tower, hoping to reconcile the grievances." Li Yunze's acting skills were excellent, he shook his head and sighed, "I never thought that Liang Huairen would be so heartbroken and crazy that he would take Brother Zhen from upstairs."

He was pushed down."

Qin Keqing's brother and sister were really shocked. They didn't expect that things would be so tragic.

"That, Master Zhen"

Li Yunze regretfully responded, "Brother Zhen, unfortunately passed away."

There was silence in the room, as both siblings were digesting the shocking news.

After a long silence, Qin Zhong suddenly said, "Will Liang Huairen plead guilty? If so, wouldn't my family be fine?"

After hearing this, Qin Keqing hurriedly yelled, "How can you talk like that!"

Glancing at the excited Qin Zhong, Li Yunze sneered in his heart, 'This kid is inhumane.'

"Things will only get worse." Li Yunze directly poured a basin of cold water on his head. "Liang Huairen wants to plead guilty, but his father will only become even more angry. When the time comes, Da Sima will no longer seek trouble in the Jia family, where should this anger go?"

spread?"

The faces of the siblings turned pale again.

It goes without saying that Da Sima's anger must have been vented on the Qin family.

"Don't worry too much!"

Before Qin Keqing could speak, Li Yunze frowned and said, "I will take this matter on my shoulders! No matter what the Great Sima does to suppress him, I will do it."

"Uncle~~~"

Qin Keqing was so moved that he felt that Li Yunze was one of the best people in the world and a true hero.

"That's it." Li Yunze stood up, "The house has been busy recently. I will go to Da Sima's house with Qin Shibo in a few days to put an end to this matter."

When Li Yunze returned to Rongning Street, white flags had been pulled up and white lanterns had been hung.

But few people I saw along the way looked sad.

After all, Jia Zhen has really not done anything good in these years, but she has done a lot of bullying of her people.

Even more people are happy that he died.

Li Yunze still couldn't return to the mansion because he was invited away by people from the Inner Palace and the Third Division when he was at the gate.

As the only witness, his testimony is directly related to how to characterize the case.

In the lobby of the Criminal Department, Li Yunze met Liang Huairen again.

In just one night's work, Mr. Liang, who was once high-spirited and ran rampant in his hometown, has become haggard.

When he saw Li Yunze, his tears immediately flowed down. "Brother Jia, I really didn't mean it. You have to help me."

The Chief Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment coughed and said, "No noise."

Liang Erhe was not idle, he had gone through all the relationships that needed to be done, and Da Sikou, who was also a group assistant in the cabinet, was no exception.

Liang Huairen's blatant solicitation of witnesses was overcome with just a word that was neither salty nor bland.

Giving Mr. Liang a reassuring smile, Li Yunze immediately handed over his hand and said, "I have met Da Sikou, Da Jicheng, Mr. Zong Xian, and the prince."

The big bosses of the three divisions are all here, including the Zhengyin of the Ministry of Punishment, the Prime Minister of Dali Temple, and the Censor of Zuodu of the Inspectorate.

As for the prince, he is in charge of the ministers of the internal affairs and is the famous loyal and shun king.

Because Jia Zhen is a noble, and the nobles are under the jurisdiction of the inner government, he also came forward.

As for why so many bigwigs came, it was purely because after the news spread, the nobles headed by the Four Kings, Eight Dukes and Twelve Marquises took advantage of the situation and started making a fuss.

Although the emperor's intention of suppressing the nobles was secretive, they were not all idiots, so they could naturally detect it.

Liang Erhe was the emperor's newly promoted confidant. Given such an opportunity to attack the emperor's confidants, the nobles would certainly not let it go.

In fact, many nobles, led by Prince Shui Rong of Beijun, were waiting for Jia Lian in Rongguo Mansion, ready to tell him to kill this matter completely.

Li Yunze's eyes finally fell on King Zhongshun.
