Chapter 45 The Truth

The signboard of Zhongyi Building was changed, and it was changed back to Piaoxiang Building.Those three familiar black characters seem to indicate a ridiculous and sad farce.

The name was changed back, but the building has not returned to the past.Due to the sensation of the murder case, there was no sign of the guests who came to eat, and it was deserted and depressed.

Today, an unexpected guest came upstairs.

As soon as the guest came, he asked to see the young master by name and to have a secret talk with him.

Ye He let him into the study.

"Your honorable name?"

"This is my badge."

"People from Fuyuan..." Ye He's voice lowered.He said lightly: "Your Excellency, what is your business?"

"The master asked me to bring a word."

"What?"

"You didn't do that well."

Ye He paused, "How do you say that?"

"In the Ruige case, there is still one person in Piaoxiang Building who knows the truth."

"how do you know?"

"As far as the master knows, there is indeed one more person."

Ye He said deeply: "Impossible. It was your people who did it. Now Rui Ge is dead, Han Chun is dead, and the others are also..." Suddenly his tone changed, "Could it be me?"

Immediately afterwards, he chuckled: "It's even more impossible. My death will not do him any good."

Negating this idea, he turned to pondering: "The whole thing, the people who knew, the people who might know are gone, this is what I saw with my own eyes... No, there is one more difference. Unless it is Han Chun!"

His voice was mixed with a trace of anxiety, and he deduced, "It is logically impossible... But if he is really not dead, it will be troublesome... If he can escape the execution in public, it must be the governor's tricks!"

The visitor made no sound.Another voice rang loudly: "Oh? Tell me, what did I do?"

The officer kicked open the door, and the governor of Yingzhou strode in.Qi Feng and I also got up from under the window lattice and followed inside.

——From the moment Ye He let the visitor into the study, the following officials quietly surrounded the place.We listened verbatim to their conversations.

Ye and the visitor opposite Ye and the visitor in the study stood up excitedly when they saw Qi Feng: "The little one is all according to what the old man taught, can the antidote be given to the villain?" He is the bearer we robbed yesterday .

Qi Feng smiled and said, "Well said. But there is no antidote."

He was shocked: "Ah—you..."

"What you took was not sex at all." Qi Feng said, "It's a medicine for calming the nerves, so that you won't panic and say the wrong thing."

Seeing us rushing in, Ye He showed a slight panic on his face, but quickly recovered his composure, and glanced at all of us.

"Mr. Ye, just now you said that I moved Han Chun's hands and feet. Now I have to ask you what you mean by 'the truth of the Ruige case' just now? 'It was your people who did it', who did it?" Hand? Who moved? Who are you referring to? Why are the people who knew the whole thing gone? What do they know? Mr. Ye, I am waiting for your answer to this series of questions!"

Faced with the governor's approaching every sentence and a group of officials who were staring at him, Ye He actually smiled and made a gesture of please sit down, "My lord, please."

The air froze for a moment, and the officials held their knives nervously, watching the governor's face.The governor thought for a while, waved them to put away their knives, and slowly sat down on the chair opposite.

"What? Do you have something to say?"

"Yes." Ye He said lightly, "What I want to say is exactly what adults want to hear."

Ye He took a sip of tea and said, "I'll answer your second question first. The move was against Rui Ge. I don't know who it was. I only know that he is from Fu's family."

"The residence of Prime Minister Fu Ying?" The governor asked carefully, but the word "mentor" was not used.

"Yes. Speaking of the whole thing, it starts with my marriage. I met Ms. Fu by chance, but the planned marriage was planned carefully."

"How to say?" The governor asked.

"The late father was not a businessman in the past, but a high-ranking official of the imperial court. He was appointed as the imperial censor. Ten years ago, he was ordered to investigate a large-scale corruption case for the current emperor. He was honest, willing to take risks, and experienced All kinds of hardships finally found the evidence of corrupt officials who broke the law. But when he presented the evidence and denounced the crimes of the corrupt officials, the emperor not only did not punish those moths, but also said that he was "preposterous without evidence" and demoted him. Two levels, pending investigation.

"Actually, it's not that the emperor is stupid. At that time, when Tule was invading the border, the emperor made a bad policy in order to stabilize the court. The emperor meant to let my father bear it for a while, but my father has many talents and learning, but he doesn't understand officialdom. Wanwan, watching the villain carefree and triumphant, resigned from office and returned to his hometown when he lost his temper, concealed his original name, and opened a restaurant."

The governor said "ah": "Your father is Ye Zhifan who is known as the iron bone censor?"

I remember now!Ye He said that his father, who was the old owner of Piaoxianglou, was an official!

"Exactly." Ye He continued, "Although my father has retired, the evidence is still in his hands. Many people have been implicated in it, and some of them are Fu Ying's guests. Of course, even he himself cannot escape Although in recent years, those tainted officials have retired because of that inspection, and Fu Ying himself has been out of office for three years, but on the one hand, he wants to stay safe, and on the other hand, he wants to use this evidence to control other officials in the DPRK and China. The son who was not reused found a way out and revived their family.

"I know very well that if I offend him, he has plenty of ways to suppress me. Even if I win the exam this year, I will never make it to the top. So, I am his son-in-law, and I don't want to be like my pedantic father. In the end, nothing will be achieved."

The governor pondered for a long time, then suddenly said: "What does this have to do with Ruige?"

"It didn't matter at first. At first, I saw that she had a good relationship with Han Chun and she often came to walk around, so I was worried. The old guy has a decent appearance and nothing inside, but he likes to pretend to be high-spirited and save face. I was worried. If you go to the door, you will be reprimanded by him, so I have been persuading Han Chun to stay away from her."

So it is!Only then did I understand why this earnest "big brother" kept saying he was good for me!

"Unexpectedly, when the old guy came to the door that day, he was fascinated by Ruige's beauty at a glance, and he was moved by evil thoughts. Huh, what kind of virtue, why did he not remarry for more than ten years because of his dead wife, it's all bullshit!" Ye He cursed, He said coldly, "Take off the robe of a refined gentleman, he is just a wolf, old pervert!"

The governor was also speechless.Probably he didn't expect his mentor to have such an unknown side.

"With his power, it's not impossible to want a woman to submit. But he wants fame, so he entrusted this matter to me-this is a strategy that kills two birds with one stone. First, it tests my sincerity, and second, it lets me There is something in his hands." Ye He put down his teacup unhurriedly, and said, "I also secretly hate him for his scheming, but there must be a price for what you want to achieve, so I have to do it. I tricked Rui Ge into Fuyuan , Rigo has a hot personality, the old guy knocked her out before taking possession of her for the first time."

I was shaking with both hands, almost crushing my fists, wishing I could rush up, but was held down by Qi Feng from the side.He glanced at Lord Governor and shook his head at me.I had no choice but to grit my teeth and stare at Ye He angrily, but he didn't look this way, he only talked to the governor, as if there was no one else in the room except the governor.

The governor said: "Go on."

"The old guy is still not satisfied, so he asked Ruige to come to him every night. After more than half a month, Ruige finally couldn't take it anymore..."

"Wait," the governor interrupted him, "Ruige is so hot-tempered that even the old bustard can't deal with her. She was bullied, not only kept quiet, but also followed your request every day. How did you do it?"

"It's very simple. Ruige likes Han Chun. As long as I tell her that Han Chun's life is in danger, she will be obedient..."

"Ah—" My internal organs seemed to be torn apart, my eyes were blood red, I couldn't help shouting angrily, shook off Qi Feng's hand, and rushed forward to punch him!

"You bastard!" I kicked hard again!Before I could punch the second time, the officer next to me dragged me away.I struggled desperately, wishing I could go up and beat this bastard to death, to avenge Ruige!

"It's a pity that I still call you big brother, you are not as good as a beast! To do such a thing to a weak woman—"

Ye He raised his face and looked at me quietly.A streak of blood oozes from the corner of his mouth, and his gentle and handsome face is swollen and slightly distorted, still looking like a quiet scholar; but at this moment, his face looks like a ghost in my eyes, and I just feel extremely disgusted!
