"Also, after Fang Lao Aiqing disappeared, if it was a vendetta, then you should see the body. If it was for money, then someone should send a letter asking for money and things."
"But now Lao Aiqing has disappeared for many days, but there is no news. I think someone must have hidden him."
"But what's the use of His Highness hiding it? He..." Zhou Quan was speechless, "By the way, Your Highness, could it be that the old prime minister knows some kind of secret."
Xiao Jingyun nodded, "Yes, you go find Fang Jun immediately and ask him what Lao Aiqing has done recently? Has he offended anyone?"
Zhou Quan bowed and went out, and Fang Jun had returned to Fang Zheng's mansion.
After all, it was his grandfather who was lost, and it was normal for his grandson to live in the house and look for him everywhere.
Besides, Fang Zheng's two sons are gone, and he only has this grandson. Even for the sake of the old prime minister who has worked hard for the country all his life, no one will have any objections.
Hearing that Zhou Quan was here, Fang Jun was still very excited, and together with the little girl, they hurried to the gate.
"I've met Uncle Zhou." Before he could finish his sentence, Fang Jun choked with sobs, and the little girl wiped away tears.
Seeing this, Zhou Quan raised his hand and patted Fang Jun's shoulder gently, saying in a deep voice, "Okay, don't cry. I believe your grandpa will be back soon."
This sentence ignited hope in Fang Jun and he nodded vigorously.
After letting Zhou Quan into the living room, the little girl personally served a cup of tea and stood behind his brother.
Fang Jun had calmed down at this time, "Uncle Zhou is here this time, I don't know what advice he can give."
Zhou Quan looked at Fang Jun and secretly admired this room. Although he was a little out of control when he first saw him in this room, it is now as normal as usual.
It seems that the landlord doesn't put a lot of thought into this.
Oops, why did I lose my mind? Zhou Quan quickly brought his thoughts back.
"That's right, His Highness asked specifically about your grandfather's disappearance today."
"Your Highness feels there is something strange in this. Why have you seen no one alive or dead after so many days? No one has come to ask for your property. This does not look like a vendetta, nor does it look like a kidnapping."
"Then, what do you think this is?" the little girl asked impatiently.
"His Highness feels that the old prime minister must have been hidden or kidnapped. He must have known some secret, and someone did not want him to tell the secret."
"So I want to ask you two if you know some of the old prime minister's recent movements."
After hearing this, the little girl shook her head and looked at her brother.
"I have been outside with the princess and haven't been back for a long time. I haven't heard that grandpa knows any secrets."
Fang Jun lowered his head and thought for a long time, "If we want to talk about secrets, it can only be about the recent incident involving the former Chief Financial Officer Feng Pengju."
"Feng Pengju was exiled to the border because the emperor believed he was involved in Gao Shuang's rebellion."
"But recently my grandfather found a housekeeper named Gao Shuang. He is very happy."
"According to Gao Xing, Gao Shuang and Feng Pengju have never had any private contact. Those so-called contacts with Feng Pengju, misappropriation of official banknotes and other matters were all caused by Gao Shuang's beating."
"Originally, he was going to be beheaded too, but on the night before his execution, someone quietly took him out and told him to leave the capital quickly and never come back again."
After listening to this narration, Zhou Quan suddenly stood up.
"Where is the joy? Take me to him quickly."
Fang Jun shook his head, "My grandpa doesn't trust anyone. Even I don't know the whereabouts of Gao Xing. My grandpa also said when he would order a thorough investigation of Feng Pengju's case, he would let Gao Xing come out."
testify."
Hearing this, Zhou Quan felt embarrassed.
If you want to clear up Feng Pengju's grievances, you have to find this happiness.
However, it is not difficult to tell from Fang Jun's words that only Fang Zheng knows the whereabouts of this happy person, and now Fang Zheng's whereabouts are unknown.
In other words, perhaps Feng Pengju's enemies did not want Feng Pengju to be rehabilitated, so they kidnapped Fang Zheng midway.
Therefore, it is crucial to find Feng Pengju's enemies.
After leaving Fang Zheng's mansion, Zhou Quan went straight to the inn to find Feng Xiaoyue.
Today, Feng Xiaoyue's mood has become slightly better, and she looks a little more energetic.
Seeing Zhou Quan coming, Feng Xiaoyue wanted to sit up and salute, but Zhou Qiang quickly waved his hand.
"Miss Xiaoyue, lie down quickly and don't move."
Feng Xiaoyue opened her mouth and said with difficulty, "Brother Zhou, I'm sorry, I really can't get up."
At this time, Chen Xiaobei next to him quickly moved a chair for Zhou Quan to sit down.
Zhou Quan went straight to the point without any politeness, "Miss Xiaoyue, there is something I want to ask you about. Did your father have any enemies when he was an official in the court?"
After hearing this, Feng Xiaoyue looked at Zhou Quan in confusion.
Zhou Quan hurriedly explained, "It's like this. Today, His Highness the Crown Prince thought it might be your father's enemies and captured Old Prime Minister Fang in order to prevent him from redressing your father's grievances."
"I also asked Fang Jun. The old prime minister found Gao Shuang, the former housekeeper Gao Shuang. Gao Gao was quietly sent out of the capital the night before the execution."
"It's a pity that only the old prime minister knows the whereabouts of Gao Xing. If we can't find the old prime minister, it will be difficult for us to know the whereabouts of Gao Xing. If we can't find Gao Xing, naturally we won't be able to vindicate your father."
After listening to Zhou Quan's narration, Feng Xiaoyue frowned, thought over and over again, and finally shook her head.
"Brother Zhou, my father has always been kind to others and is very popular in the court. I really can't think of anyone he could make enemies with."
Chen Xiaobei also took over the conversation and said, "Yes, it has been four or five years since Mr. Feng was demoted to the border. It has been so long. What kind of hatred cannot be resolved?"
"Besides, the old prime minister found Gao Xing after a lot of hard work. If it is really Master Feng's enemies, just kill Gao Xing. Why bother?"
After hearing what Chen Xiaobei said, Zhou Quan fell into deep thought, and it made sense to think about it. If it was really what the enemy said, then when Fang Zheng found some clues, it would be enough to just eliminate the clues. There is no need to solve the problem once and for all.
Leaving the near and seeking the far away, he went to arrest Fang Zheng.
But if this was not the case, why did Fang Zheng disappear without a trace?
Zhou Quan returned to the Prince's Mansion and told Xiao Jingyun the situation. Xiao Jingyun also frowned. After thinking about it carefully, Chen Xiaobei's words made sense.
But since what Chen Xiaobei said makes sense, there is a possibility that his own reasoning could be overturned. Then the question arises, where did the Fang Zheng go?
Feng Xiaoyue, who was as gloomy as Xiao Jingyun, had finally been in a better mood in the past two days, and her condition seemed to be getting better. However, after Zhou Quan's visit, Feng Xiaoyue became depressed again.
