Reborn, meet you again!
Chapter 57 Letter
Hu Liang was quickly brought up by Suifeng.
He was originally an idle and heartless gangster who made a living in the capital city by running errands for others, fawning over dignitaries and asking for rewards.
Fortunately, he was quite tight-lipped and never talked too much. Moreover, as long as he was paid, he would do things reliably. As a result, gradually, many people came to him for help.
For example, delivering some pedantic love poems to a young man.
Who would have thought that he was sleeping soundly last night when he was suddenly picked up from the bed like a chicken.
Then he was locked in a dark room.
It was not until this morning that he found out that the person who arrested him was the Regent who had been confiscating property in the capital recently. He almost fainted from fright.
Being brought up by Suifeng at this moment, he looked at the man sitting in the main seat in front of him, with a ghost mask emitting a cold silver light on his face. He felt even more frightened and kowtowed hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, I may be a bit shameless, but I have never done anything that is against the will of heaven or the law!"
"Please Your Majesty, please look into this matter!"
Jun Jiuchen glanced at Song Yi, then looked at Hu Liang and asked directly.
"You don't have to be afraid. I asked you to come here just to ask a few questions."
"Just answer truthfully."
Hu Liang secretly groaned in his heart, how could one "invite" someone like this?
However, when he heard that they were just going to ask him some questions and not to raid his house, he finally calmed down a little and expressed his loyalty.
"Please speak, my lord. I will tell you everything I know."
"Okay, then I'm asking you, about twenty days ago, did someone ask you to deliver an unidentified letter to the Prime Minister's residence?"
After hearing this, Hu Liang seemed to think about it carefully, and then quickly replied.
"Your Majesty, this is indeed the case!"
Since his life was at stake, he naturally had no reason to hide it.
But immediately, he seemed to realize something and hurriedly distanced himself from the matter.
"But Your Highness, I usually help some young masters in the capital with things that are inconvenient for personal servants to do, such as running errands."
"That time, I only accepted money from a young lady and delivered a letter to the gatehouse of the Prime Minister's Mansion for her."
"I don't know anything else!"
When Hong Shang heard Hu Liang mention her, even though she knew she had been very careful that day and he would not recognize her, her heart couldn't help but beat irregularly again.
At this time, Jun Jiuchen's voice sounded again.
"So, you don't know the identity of the person who sent the letter, nor the contents of the letter?"
Hu Liang said hurriedly and firmly.
"That's right! Although I'm not a serious person, I still have my own rules when doing things. I don't look at things I shouldn't look at, and I don't ask questions. I never listen too much or ask too many questions."
"That's why some people are willing to ask me to do things for them, and that's why I can make a living from it!"
"I would never dare to deceive Your Majesty!"
Jun Jiuchen looked at Hu Liang, who was sweating coldly, and did not ask any more questions.
Instead, he turned to look at Song Yi.
"What do you think, Prime Minister Song?"
Song Yi saw that Hu Liang's words were very convincing and did not seem to be false.
He couldn't help but frown and look at Uncle Fu beside him. He really hadn't received any letter.
"Uncle Fu, ask the concierge to come over and answer the call!"
However, at this time, Uncle Fu on the side had already remembered something.
Judging from the current situation, since the regent brought the person who delivered the letter with him, it is obvious that he came prepared.
No matter what his purpose was, it was impossible to say that the letter did not exist, so he responded.
"Prime Minister, there's no need to ask. I just saw Hu Liang and this old servant remembered that this is indeed the case."
"But at that time, you were bedridden and seriously ill, and Hu Liang was a scoundrel, so the people below temporarily handed the letter to Aunt Wen and the Third Miss."
Jun Jiuchen seemed to have found something interesting when he heard this, and looked at Song Yi leisurely.
"What a coincidence! Prime Minister Song doesn't even know about this?"
"But since this letter really exists, why not ask the women in your family to take it out and take a look? This will also prove Prime Minister Song's innocence."
"Of course, if Song Xiang really had some shameful correspondence with someone... he could refuse, or just send me a fake letter to appease me."
"But I advise Prime Minister Song... Now that I have found this letter, I naturally have a way to verify its authenticity."
"Prime Minister Song is the best...think twice before you act."
Song Yi really didn't expect that there would be such a letter.
He was not surprised how Jun Jiuchen knew about the letter.
He has already bought the house next to the prime minister's residence, so why is it surprising that he sent people to keep an eye on the prime minister's residence?
He was just curious...
How did he know that there must be something wrong with the letter and come to me in such a high-profile manner?
Or was it him who arranged this whole thing from beginning to end?
However, if he really forged a secret letter from Mobei and sent it in, and then cried "stop thief" and tried to convict him based on this letter.
Then his method...
It's a bit too rough.
Thinking of this, Song Yi suppressed the doubts in his heart and looked at Uncle Fu.
"Since the Regent has said so, go ask Aunt Wen and get the letter!"
"If there really is a 'Mobei Secret Letter', the Regent's trip today wouldn't be in vain."
"Yes! Master!"
