Seeing that Tao Shaozhang opened his mouth and stopped asking for help, Chu Qing knew that this guy had completely calmed down.
Looking at the young minister of Dali Temple, Chu Qing asked: "What should we do next? Go to Jingzhao Mansion and ask what's going on?"
Tao Shaozhang did not respond immediately, but sat back on the stool and fell into deep thought.
Chu Qing poured herself a cup of tea, not too worried.
First of all, Chen Yan is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. Regardless of his skills and brains, he will not be "caught" so quickly.
Secondly, Tao Shaozhang is a young minister of Dali Temple, so he is a professional counterpart. It should not be too difficult to clear Chen Yan's grievances.
But soon, as soon as Tao Shaozhang opened his mouth, Chu Qing felt unsure again.
Tao Shaozhang raised his head and asked, "What do you think we should do?"
Chu Qing was confused: "No, brother, you are the young minister of Dali Temple. You ask me what to do?"
Tao Shaozhang blushed: "Of course I have rules, but... I just want to ask you what you think."
"The threshold for officials in Chang Dynasty is really low." Chu Qing sighed: "Let's figure out three things first."
"Which three?"
"Who died, how many died, and when did they die."
Tao Shaozhang's eyes lit up: "I think so too."
"What happened yesterday? Jingzhao Mansion came to arrest people today. What's that called? Yes, the punishment is not that of a doctor. Chen Yan is a scholar and has an official status. No matter how rampant the Li family is, they don't dare to order Jingzhao at will.
The government should go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to get someone. This means that Jingzhao Mansion must have ironclad evidence. Then you have to find out whether the ironclad evidence is human evidence or physical evidence. Where does the evidence come from? Why did Jingzhao Mansion make the conclusion?
The evidence is irrefutable."
Tao Shaozhang nodded fiercely: "That's right, that's right, that's right, I think so too."
"As long as you can overturn these perjury, you can enter the palace. Report to Your Majesty that Chen Yan was framed because of the Xiao County tax items. If Your Majesty is a wise king, he will definitely be anxious. Even if Long Yan is furious, what will happen next
Things will be easier to handle, and Chen Yan will be safe."
With a "pop" sound, Tao Shaozhang slapped the table with an excited expression: "It coincides with me."
Chu Qing was too lazy to say anything.
He knew that many officials in ancient times did not need very strong professional skills, as long as they had good knowledge of the Four Books and Five Classics. But he really didn't expect that the dignified young minister of Dali Temple, who was born in the fourth grade, would actually stretch his hips like this?
In fact, Chu Qing really didn't know something. Those with excellent business abilities in various government agencies were generally chief officials and clerks, while most of the Shangguan officials were half-full.
But this doesn't mean anything. Just like this Dali Temple, the chiefs and clerks will investigate the case. The problem is that they don't dare to offend the Li family. Tao Shaozhang doesn't know how to investigate the case, but as the young minister of Dali Temple, he dares to fight against the Li family.
Just to the end.
So when it comes to many things, you can't look at the surface. Chu Qing's thinking is still too one-sided.
Tao Shaozhang stood up: "Without further delay, you and I will go to Jingzhao Mansion to find out what is going on."
Chu Qing didn't even move his butt: "Brother, can you use your brain a little bit?"
"what for?"
"The reason why the Li family made Chen Yan was because of you. Do you think they might not want to put their hands on you and keep an eye on you? They might not have thought about you going to Jingzhao Mansion to investigate. They might not have thought that you would reverse Chen Yan's case."
Tao Shaozhang sat down again: "I think so too."
"Then why are you standing up so excited?"
"My waist is a little sore."
Chu Qing: "..."
Tao Shaozhang sneered.
"Okay, okay, don't pretend to be like me." Chu Qing said angrily: "The dead people must be those who made loan sharks. They are in Jufuzhai, Beishi. Let's investigate privately and ask the shops around.
And the people, who reported the case, and how did Jingzhao Mansion handle it."
Tao Shaozhang stood up again, this time he didn't say that he thought so too, but gave a salute to Chu Qing.
"Shaozhang, Dai Shangyu, thank you Mr. Chu for your help."
Chu Qing rolled his eyes: "Chen Yan went there yesterday morning. After beating someone, I went there again in the evening. I was afraid of being implicated, otherwise who would be willing to take care of your messy affairs."
Tao Shaozhang smiled slightly, making it clear that he didn't believe what he said.
In fact, Chu Qing didn't talk nonsense. If he had such concerns, the Li family could target Chen Yan, so they might also target him.
But the main reason that really made Chu Qing decide to wade into this muddy water was because Chen Yan had helped him.
As people walk between heaven and earth, they are living a difficult life, and there are many forced situations, but there must always be a bottom line, a standard, and a criterion.
Chu Qing didn't know where his bottom line was, let alone what standards and principles he should use to conduct himself in the world.
He just knew that Chen Yan had helped him, trusted him, and that he was capable, or perhaps capable, so he should help Chen Yan, at least, so that he would feel more secure when sleeping at night.
"When you were at the Hubu Yamen Office, there should have been people from the Li family watching you. I can't rule out that they followed me who tipped off the news. Even if not, someone might have been watching you outside Dali Temple and saw me." Chu
Qing stood up and said with a backbone look: "I'll leave first and pretend to be dejected. After half an hour, you can leave again and go to Bei City. Find me next to Fulong Inn. Don't wear official robes."
, don’t take the sedan, go through the side door of your government office, avoid people, and don’t be watched, do you understand?”
"Why don't you understand? I think so too..."
"Okay, okay, if the emperor establishes a new government office at any time, and there is a competition to see who can show off and brag best, you will definitely be the official."
Chu Qing cursed angrily and left the class room. He immediately adjusted his expression and looked like his father had remarried. He also cursed and pretended that Tao Shaoqing had not given him a good look.
Especially when he passed by some Dali Temple officials, Chu Qing cursed louder. Tao Yao was an old man, Tao Shaozhang refused to save him, the young lady of the Tao family was a scheming bitch, and the eldest lady of the Tao family was a barrel spirit.
Even the maid of the eldest lady of the Tao family is not a thing.
The result was purely a show of flirtatiousness to a blind man, and the Dali Temple government office was completely empty, not even a shadow of a ghost.
It wasn't until he left the government office and called Fu San that Chu Qing asked in a low voice: "Did anyone secretly follow us along the way?"
Fu San looked around subconsciously, and Chu Qing said: "Don't look back and forth to see if there is anything there or not."
"I didn't realize it."
"Even if you notice it, don't make it public. Just tell me in a low voice."
Fu San's expression changed slightly: "Master, are we being targeted?"
"I don't know, but the probability is very low. It's better to be careful. Don't go back to the government office. Make a few more rounds and go to Beishi."
"Young master, you can rest assured that I'm here." Fu Sanhao said angrily: "Three or five people can't even get close to you."
"What if there are seven or eight people?"
"Seven or eight people..." Fusan frowned: "Then you can rest assured..."
Chu Qing was slightly surprised: "You can beat seven or eight people without getting hurt?"
"No, what I'm saying is that if seven or eight people want to hurt you, they must first step over Xiao's body."
Chu Qing: "..."
"But if there are seven or eight people, five or six of them are fighting with the little one, and the remaining three or four are going to beat you, then the little one will have no choice."
"Shut up, the more you talk, the guiltier I feel."
