Chapter 52 Lu Yunhong, you were a high-ranking eater in your last life, right?
In the county government office, the rooster crows three times, and Wang Man is already sleepy.
However, Jiang Wenxing, the prefect of Suzhou, and Gao Zhian, the prefect of Changzhou, were in high spirits and in high spirits.
Even Zhou Xu didn't yawn, and Wang Man could only continue to socialize.
However, when the Suzhou magistrate apologized for Duan Qiwen's incident, Wang Man remembered the secret message he had received halfway.
He immediately sneered and said: "Since the Lu family has stopped pursuing this matter, there is no reason for us, the Wang family, to insist on it."
"You can rest assured that no one will blame you for this matter. Even if they do, it will be Duan Xuelin's fault."
"He was taking bribes back then. How could he get away with it so easily?"
Jiang Wenxing felt a thump in her heart and thought to herself that this was not good.
Gao Zhi'an was also a little worried. Hearing Wang Man's tone, the Wang family didn't pursue the case anymore. Could it be that someone else would pursue it?
Whenever an old case is to be overturned, the three divisions must have talented people.
Wang Jiasilang is in Dali Temple, but I haven’t heard that there are others in the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Punishment?
Just when they were suspicious, Wang Man stood up and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you two adults, so it's better not to ask any more questions."
After that, he said to Zhou Xu: "Where is the guest room of the county government? I'm going to have a rest."
Jiang Wenxing and Gao Zhian heard this and quickly stood up to see him off.
Zhou Xu also quickly took Wang Man down to have a rest. When they arrived at the guest room, the servants had even prepared the hot water smoker. The guest room was very warm.
Before Wang Man entered the door, he turned to Zhou Xu and said, "Duan Xuelin's case is going to be retried. Just know about it and don't tell it."
Zhou Xu was so shocked that he couldn't help but ask: "Is it really because of your sister?"
Wang Man smiled and shook his head: "How could it be? Their family doesn't know how to hide their capabilities and bide their time."
"Back then, Duan Xuelin was embezzling and accepting bribes, but someone acted as a guarantee to save his life. He was ungrateful and tried to use his marriage with the Lu family to get back together. This matter was reported to the court, and someone reported what happened back then to the prince, and he was still
He said that his son's fame was also bought. Although this young scholar cannot make any waves, he will be accused of all the crimes and he will probably end up in a bad situation."
"I also received a secret message on the way here this time. Even Yunhong and the others don't know about it. I haven't had time to tell them yet."
Zhou Xu said he understood and he would not talk too much.
Wang Man nodded slightly and went into the room to rest.
The next day, Wang Man didn't get up until late in his sleep. Zhou Xu came over and told him that the two prefects were still waiting to visit the Lu family with him.
Wang Man smiled and said: "It's strange, are local officials so free?"
Zhou Xu said: "Right now, Wuxi is building an official school, and inspections by local officials are also considered government affairs."
Wang Man understood, he was just pretending to be a public servant to help his private interests.
He looked up at Zhou Xu and said calmly: "Do they want something?"
Zhou Xu said: "A few days ago, your sister asked a young scholar to sort out the books and make copies and backups. After Master Gao found out, he mentioned his son to me, but I forgot about it when I was busy. Now he heard that the eldest princess has sent him again
There are many ancient books, so he told me to help him, and wanted me to be a middleman and recommend his son to help sort out and copy the books."
Wang Manhun said nonchalantly: "What a big deal."
"They are not cautious when they should be cautious, and they are cautious everywhere when they should not be cautious."
"Go and promise him. He is the prefect after all. Don't ask him to give you little shoes to wear."
Zhou Xu said: "I am a second-ranked Jinshi, but he doesn't dare."
Wang Mandao: "That's right, you also have many colleagues in the court."
After saying that, he smiled and said: "That doesn't mean you have to agree."
Zhou Xu nodded helplessly and smiled.
After all, he is the prefect, so he still has to give face.
After breakfast, the group of them quickly went to the Lu family.
When Lu Yunhong learned that the DPRK would retry Duan Xuelin's case, he was very confused.
He thought that the most he could do was to remove Duan Qiwen's reputation, because people like Duan Qiwen who behaved badly were the most disgusted in academic affairs.
Until he heard that it was the prince's handiwork, Lu Yunhong was immediately surprised and said: "Your Highness, how could he care about such a thing?"
Wang Man stared at him and said: "When you return to the court, you will be an official under the prince's sect, what do you think?"
"The prince is also telling you in disguise that it is better for the Lu family to find marriages with noble scholars. This way it will be easier to ask for favor in the future."
Lu Yunhong suddenly smiled.
He forgot that he was no longer a person or a direct minister.
Because he has Axiu and the support of the Wang family, now everyone knows that he is the son-in-law of the Wang family and will return to the court sooner or later. The prince is helping him!
It was easy to figure things out, but Lu Yunhong still felt uncomfortable.
It seems that since Axiu rescued the eldest princess, the prince has also taken special care of the Lu family. This is nothing at first, but every time he thinks of the prince doing these things, the first person who comes to mind is Axiu, and he instantly becomes uneasy.
.
Was he still angry with Axiu this morning?
Lu Yunhong didn't care about Wang Man, and said calmly: "Fifth brother, it's up to you. I'll go find Axiu first."
Wang Man's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, and he looked at him with an incomprehensible expression: "Isn't this at the Lu family?"
Lu Yunhong said: "Yes."
Wang Man asked suspiciously: "Then why are you looking for Axiu?"
Lu Yunhong sighed: "Your Wang family is too powerful. Axiu's natal family is comparable to the royal family. I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, she won't want me."
"Fifth Brother, I want to call you Fifth Brother all the time!"
Wang Man: "..."
If he hadn't developed the ability to be calm and composed, he would have dropped the cup of tea on the floor now.
Is this still the Lu Yunhong he knows?
When he and Axiu got married, he brought the eighteen most outstanding bachelors from the Imperial Academy to stop them, but they didn't stop them.
Lu Yunhong was so arrogant at that time, it seemed that even if he married a princess, it would be difficult to lose half of his charm.
Where is it like now, where you have to coax your wife at home??
…
There were guests at home, and Wang Xiu went to the kitchen to ask for some good dishes.
When she came out, she saw Butler Qin with two young boys with angry faces. The two boys were carrying wine and pastries, which looked like they had just bought them.
Wang Xiu asked: "Is this the day Butler Qin just hired a part-time worker?"
Butler Qin shook his head and explained quickly: "Back to grandma, these are the servants of Mr. Qian Xing's family in the county. They are here to give gifts."
Qian Xing?
Wang Xiu had no impression at all.
Butler Qin saw Wang Xiu's confusion and continued to explain: "His family was originally from the village. I met the master when I was a child, and he moved out after he became rich. Yesterday, I was sitting at the same table drinking with the master."
Seeing that Wang Xiu was the eldest grandma of the Lu family, the boy quickly explained: "My master said that he and Mr. Lu didn't drink enough yesterday. Now that the Lu family has guests, he can't bother him. He will come to the house when the Lu family is free.
visit."
Wang Xiu nodded slightly, as long as the old man knew him, then just let the old man handle it by himself.
"Since they are the master's guests, Butler Qin will take them to see the master."
Butler Qin nodded and quickly led them inside.
Wang Xiu was about to go back to her room, but she almost bumped into Lu Yunhong as soon as she turned around. She was so frightened that she stepped back and said angrily: "Aren't you accompanying Fifth Brother? Why are you here?"
Lu Yunhong picked up Wang Xiu's hand and suddenly said: "Axiu, does the prince want to retry Duan Xuelin's case?"
Wang Xiu: "So?"
What does it have to do with them?
Also, who is Duan Xuelin?
Lu Yunhong was so angry and funny. It had just been so long, but she didn't even remember Duan's family.
"Duan Xuelin is Duan Qiwen's father. Didn't I tell you that he was dismissed for accepting bribes?"
Wang Xiu frowned: "It seems that there is such a thing, but what does it have to do with us? It's not us who went to report him."
Lu Yunhong stopped following her in circles and sighed directly: "Your Wang family is really powerful!"
Wang Xiu: "..." There must be something fishy about the strange yin and yang.
Lu Yunhong turned a deaf ear and continued: "The prince also values you very much!"
Wang Xiu: "..." It is not a gentleman's behavior to involve others for no reason.
Lu Yunhong withstood the pressure and bit the bullet: "So, you can't abandon me in the future!"
Wang Xiu: "..." Hmm??? Are you coveting me? Or are you coveting the power in my hands?
Lu Yunhong, in your last life you were able to get to the top by eating soft rice, right?
Otherwise, why would you act like a psycho??
Lu Yunhong: "..."?!
Show weakness and fail!
Forget it, eating soft food these days also requires effort, he might as well try seduction!
