Chapter 35 It's Easy to Ask God
Song Xian stopped talking, and Lu San also retreated.
Song Xian put down his brush and went to look at the map again. The war in the north had subsided, but the secret struggle continued. The emperor would be afraid of the Song family. In addition to someone who reported that the Song family had colluded with the Liao people, it was also because the political situation in the Daqi was unstable.
There have been rumors in the Imperial Hospital that the emperor had hidden illness and had children who were not prosperous. Concubine Shu finally gave birth to a son but was born weak. She kept medicine and stones every day, and eventually died last month.
If there is no prince under you, who will inherit the throne in the future?
The emperor had two brothers, King Qi and King Jin, and a Jiedushi who held heavy troops on the frontier. As time went by, the emperor would become more anxious and suspicious.
Song Xian knew what happened in the twelve years of the Great Qi Dynasty. There was no emperor's blood in the harem. The emperor's health was getting worse and worse. He asked the queen to raise his nephew under his knees. King Qi and King Jin were dissatisfied and took the opportunity to win over the Jiedushi to cause trouble.
In addition to the remnants of the previous dynasty and the Liao people disturbed the border, the entire Qi Dynasty was trapped in war again.
Now that he has lived for twelve years, he naturally has to prepare for the future. He first solves the crisis in the north, and then completely eliminates the hidden dangers of the previous dynasty.
Thinking of this, Song Xian couldn't help but think of Xie Liangchen again. No one was willing to do what he had done again, not to mention that it was a series of wars and plans.
Song Xian was about to close the map in his hand when he heard Chang Yue's voice coming from outside: "Master, I'm back."
Song Xian was a little surprised that Chang Yue had been with Xie Liangchen.
"Come in."
Chang Yue pushed open the door when he heard Song Xian's voice.
Song Xian did not look up: "Why are you here?"
Chang Yue bowed and reported, "Miss Xie was taken to the Song family by the third master." Since people went to the Song family, there would naturally be people watching him, so he pulled out and replied to the uncle.
Although Song Xian was a little surprised, he thought about it carefully and everything was reasonable. Song Min's methods were always like this. Instead of standing up, it would be better to hand over the evidence to Song Qizheng.
Song Xian did not rush to go back to the Song family, but just said, "How is she?"
Chang Yue and Chang An are brothers, but they have different personalities. Chang Yue rarely speaks on weekdays, and he will only speak when Song Xian asks him.
"Miss Xie is capable," said Chang Yue, "Song Min wants to keep her as evidence again, so it should be OK."
However, after saying that, Chang Yue felt that the old man was not asking him this, and he could think of it himself, so Chang Yue said again: "Miss Xie... She cuts her flesh with a blunt knife, which is quite capable of tying people." As he saw with his own eyes, he tossed Master Xie to death and went to coax Song Min and others.
Song Xian raised his eyebrows. Others might not know what Chang Yue was saying, but the Chang brothers followed him since childhood and he knew them very well.
Chang Yue is praising her some tricks?
He didn't know anything else, and no one could understand the three words "treating people" more deeply than him.
Song Xian was a little curious. What did Chang Yue see when he followed Xie Liangchen in the past few days? However, this curiosity flashed away, so he didn't ask again.
"Go," Song Xian said, "instruct those who stay in the Song family to stare, you go and help Chang'an."
Song Family.
As soon as Song Qizheng entered the door, he saw that the manager looked strange.
Song Qizheng asked, "What happened?"
The manager wanted to cover up, and his eyes dodged.
Song Qizheng frowned and said, "Say." Li You had met him several times in the past two days, but he was always doing business, which made him very anxious. When he saw this situation again when he returned home, he couldn't help but get angry.
The manager then said: "The third master got angry in the yard, and his wife rushed over and persuaded him."
"No one is worry-free." Song Qizheng said a word and went to Song Min's residence without hesitation.
Walking outside the yard, Song Qizheng heard a begging for mercy: "Please, please spare us this time. We are desperate to come up with this bad plan."
Then Song Min said, "Who asked you to stop? Keep calling me."
Song Qizheng walked into the yard a few steps and saw a man pressed to the ground, with blood soaked out of his robe.
Everyone found Song Qizheng, and Mrs. Rong pulled Song Min hard, then came to Song Qizheng: "Master, why are you back?"
Song Min's expression full of hostility also restrained a little and stepped forward to salute Song Qizheng.
The Song family, who was waving the stick, also stopped, and the screams came to an abrupt end.
"What's going on?" Song Qizheng looked majestic.
Song Min wanted to speak but stopped. Mrs. Rong pursed her lips and looked at her son complainingly, but she didn't dare to speak.
Looking at the servants in the yard, Song Qizheng wanted to curse, but he could barely hold back, walked into the room, and sat on the main seat.
Song Qizheng didn't give Song Min a chance to breathe: "What are you doing?"
Song Min gritted his teeth and finally spoke, "The people below are ignorant, I will teach him a long lesson."
Song Qizheng snorted coldly, how could he not see any hidden secrets in this?
"Bring people over and talk back."
Song Qizheng gave the order, and the followers beside him hurriedly went to pick them up.
After a moment, the pale-faced Mr. Dong was thrown to the ground.
"Say." Song Qizheng suppressed his anger and looked down at the people on the ground.
Mr. Dong kowtowed first, then looked at Song Min and said, "General, the villains are desperate, so they went to investigate Chenjia Village. If they just wait like this, the uncle will definitely kill us."
Song Qizheng did not expect that what he heard was such a remark.
Song Qizheng's voice was gloomy: "Tell me clearly."
Mr. Dong trembled all over: "The uncle told the paper shop not to collect medicinal materials sent by merchants. He wanted to clear us out of Zhenzhou City."
Song Qizheng had heard of this incident for a long time: "Because the villagers offered prescriptions, they were given ten days to sell medicine. I don't want you to compete with ordinary people for profit."
Mr. Dong had a chapped lips and was busy defending him: "We thought so at the beginning. Although the old man arrested many people, they did not have any clean hands and feet in private, and we did not dare to resent, until the second master of the Xie family told me that the person who presented the prescription was his niece, who did not know the medicinal materials at all, and was the paper shop that someone ordered to go to.
I...I went to check it out curiously."
"You are not going to check it out," Song Min finally couldn't help but sternly, "You are taking Miss Xie away for questioning privately."
Mr. Dong lowered his head and did not dare to look at Song Min. He could only listen to Song Min scolding indignation.
The Third Master would pretend not to know about this matter and hand them over to General Song. He was shocked when he heard the Third Master's idea. In order to keep the Third Master out of trouble, he would inevitably suffer.
But he had no choice but to agree to the third master's temperament.
Mr. Dong swallowed and said, "If it were just ordinary people selling medicine, how dare we do it? I'm afraid that there would be some arrangements. Then I wanted to figure out that we have been in the north for many years and we can't just go to waste."
Song Qizheng's heart seemed to be stabbed. Who arranged for someone to offer the offer? He wanted to cultivate his own people if he did not let the merchants intervene? Now even the merchants can't tolerate it. This is to regard the entire north as his own pocket.
"Pull him out first." Song Min ordered, and the servant did not dare to neglect and hurried forward to pull Mr. Dong.
There were only Song Qizheng, Mrs. Rong and Song Min left in the room.
Song Min stepped forward and bowed: "Father, my son has not restrained his subordinates, so he caused trouble. His son beat him up and wanted to make it clear that no matter what the Song family is, they can't interfere. No matter what happens to the Song family, we are a family when we close the door.
Especially when Lord Li You came to Zhenzhou, if we were confused, we would make others laugh."
Song Qizheng did not make any sound.
Song Min said this and took a long breath: "It was too late when my son found out. Not only did they interrogate Miss Xie privately, but they also asked Miss Xie to write a confession in person and hand it over to the yamen.
Even if I deducted the confession, I don’t know how to explain it to Chenjia Village, and I’m afraid they will find that Miss Xie is missing.”
Song Qizheng frowned when he heard this: "Where is the person? Is there anything wrong?"
Song Min shook his head: "The person was frightened a little, nothing else. After seeing Miss Xie, his son didn't know what to do, so he took the person back to the Song family."
