The main door of Yu Mansion opened wide, and Yu Lian, who looked like Bihua's biological father, came out with more than twenty housekeepers and servants, his forehead covered in sweat.
Yu Lian was so scared that he almost peed.
It didn't matter that the second prince came, the main thing was that the deputy commander of Qianqiying actually came "in person".
As for the Qianqiying brand, in the Ming Dynasty, it was basically the same as Jinyiwei.
"I am under the rank of Yu Lian, but I am not welcomed from afar. I have met His Royal Highness King Langya and the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Chu."
These officials are the most well-informed. As for Chu Qing, the deputy commander of Qianqiying, the matter has surfaced. Not to mention the circle of courtiers, even ordinary people have begun to talk about it.
Yu Lian was wearing ordinary clothes, a brocade silk dress, and he was dripping with sweat. After bowing and bowing, he didn't dare to straighten up again. This was mainly because he saw his disciple kneeling tremblingly beside the guard, and thought he had committed something.
The matter was discovered by Qianqiying.
Chu Qing has gradually adapted to his new identity. After being a grandson for so long, it is time for him to become an uncle.
Chu Qing struck preemptively: "Yu Qian, are you aware of your guilt?"
Yu Lian raised his head, his small eyes full of confusion.
Chen Yan reminded in a low voice: "His name is Yu Lian."
Chu Qing's old face turned red: "Look at those awkward words you wrote. I'm still surprised. This guy isn't holding a cigarette in his mouth and burning his head."
The list of Li family connections and disciples and former officials was all written by Chen Yan, and Chu Qing also saw the name Yu Lian from this list.
I'm convinced by Chen Yan. If you don't know how to read, why should you blame me for not writing it well?
Clearing his throat, Chu Qing said again: "Yu Lian, do you know your guilt?"
Yu Lian swallowed a sip of saliva: "Commander Chu, I'm a lower official... I'm a lower official... What's wrong with my lower official?"
Sun An, the commander-in-chief of Qianqiying, is a valet, and his rank is counted within the palace, but the deputy commander is counted outside the palace. He belongs to the official position of a military general in the imperial court, the third rank, while Yu Lian, the young minister, is only the fourth rank.
, there's nothing wrong with calling him "Xia Guan" in front of Chu Qing.
Of course, if it were another military commander, even if the rank was not as good as others, the civil servant would call himself an official, because there was no direct relationship, so he would be divided among others.
"You dare to be so stubborn when you are about to die!" Chu Qing, who had taken the lead, began to deceive: "As for your Yu family's scandal, Qianqiying has already found out about it."
"The Yu family... I'm a brave official!"
Yu Lian knew that Qianqiying had recently been involved in the accounting matter, and was probably targeting the Li family. He was also on good terms with the Li family, so it was inevitable that he would wonder if the other party was here to cause trouble.
In an instant, he recalled whether he had done anything immoral in the past few years. Yu Lian gritted his teeth and said, "I dare to ask where I have offended His Highness King Langya and Mr. Chu. Your Highness and Mr. Chu actually came to visit me in person to investigate."
Instead of saying that he was an official, I didn't ask him which Chang's law he had violated, but asked him where he had offended others, and then said that he was going to call an army to investigate the crime. This question directly led to the topic of "private grudges".
Chu Qing frowned: "You are still pretending, are you still pretending, do you really want me to reveal all your bad things?"
"I really don't know."
"Then I've said it."
"Please let Master Chu make it clear."
"I really said it."
"Master Chu, please speak."
"I really said it, don't regret it."
"No regrets."
"I..." Chu Qing cursed in his heart and stared at Yu Lian. Seeing that he couldn't cheat, he pointed at the door where he was kneeling next to him and said, "He is so disrespectful. In front of His Royal Highness King Langya, he took the right step first."
leg."
Yu Lian was dumbfounded.
This set of lies is okay to fool the ignorant disciples, but it is definitely not enough to scare Yu Lian.
Yu Lian didn't say anything to add insult to injury. He smiled apologetically and said, "Since I have offended His Highness and the Commander-in-Chief of Chu, well, I will have his right leg broken."
Chu Qing's eyes lit up: "Okay, then you fight it yourself."
Yu Lian was not stupid. He looked at the door and said, "You are deaf. Didn't you hear what Mr. Chu said? Go find a stick and break your dog's legs!"
Chu Qing's face was full of disappointment: "Forget it, you have to watch the dog when you beat the master, so let him go."
Although he is not a veteran like Yu Lian, Chu Qing is not a newbie either.
If that door really broke his own leg, it wouldn't take half a day for this matter to become a big deal. Why do the second prince and the deputy commander of Qianqiying use their power to suppress others and let others move their right leg first when they see them walking?
How about cutting off a dog's leg?
Yu Lian asked tentatively: "Since Deputy Commander Chu did not pursue the matter, then the matter has been revealed. I wonder if there are other things in the Yu family that have conflicted with His Highness and Commander Chu?"
"No, no." Chu Qing laughed: "Oh, I'm just joking with you. How come Mr. Yu takes it seriously? It's just a joke."
"Master Chu, what you mean is that it was just a joke and I, the Yu family, have done nothing wrong?"
"Yes."
"I see."
There was a hint of disdain in Yu Lian's eyes. He thought Qian Qiying was so powerful, but it turned out that he was also playing this kind of little trick.
But at this point, Tao Ruolin suddenly interrupted with a smile: "Not yet, it must be that we haven't investigated deeply yet. It won't be too late to talk about it when there is irrefutable evidence."
Yu Lian looked suspicious, feeling that Chen Yan and Chu Qing were also deceiving him.
"Who is this girl?"
Chu Qing chuckled: "Chief Xiaomi, deputy commander of Qianqi Camp."
Tao Ruolin's face was filled with a harmless and innocent smile: "Master Yu married a concubine half a year ago. Because of his affair with the groom, both the concubine and the groom disappeared. Rumors, rumors, rumors, these two people were thrown into
"My lord, do you have a well in your backyard? There won't be any bones in it."
Yu Lian's expression changed drastically, and he forced a smile and said: "This girl Xiaomi is joking, joking, rumors, rumors."
"Really? Yu Ji Rice Shop in Nan City always buys old rice at a low price, but all the rice it sells is new rice. Another thing is that the rice in Sinong Temple is obviously new, but why is it mixed with a lot of old rice?
Mi, it’s so strange.”
Yu Lian's face turned earth-colored, and cold sweat flowed down his nose again.
Chen Yan glanced at Tao Ruolin slightly, wondering whether to laugh or cry: "I knew you couldn't stay idle."
Tao Ruolin smiled: "I blame you Qianqiying for being so stupid."
"Nonsense." Chen Yan was unhappy: "I just don't want to mention it now."
"Bragging again."
"How can you be bragging? I went drinking on a flower boat on Lian Yuan Day, got drunk, maimed a boat passenger, and lost eight guan of money. Don't you know about this?"
"What's this?" Tao Ruolin said not to be outdone: "Six months ago, his son Yu Wenkui took part in the imperial examination. He asked Zhou Youwei, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, to give away the land in advance and knew the imperial examination questions. You must not know this."
"That's true, but there is another thing. A year ago, Yu Lian went out and fell in love with a folk girl, and wanted to buy a house forcibly. When he learned that the folk girl had a husband, he actually sent people to threaten the folk girl's husband's family.
I almost lost my life, but you said it was more serious than you said."
"Why didn't people lose their lives? When Yu Lian first entered Beijing, he fell in love with the house of a doctor from the Ministry of Works. He couldn't take it by force. He collected irrefutable evidence of the doctor's illegality and blackmailed him. He forced the doctor from the Ministry of Works to commit suicide."
"The doctor was not clean to begin with, but he left two concubines behind. He is worse than a bastard, like that thief Cao, who forcibly brought two concubines into the house..."
With a "plop", Yu Lian knelt down and almost cried: "The turtle said it, I beg you, please hurry up and say it."
