Cao Yan passed out after saying that sentence.The few yamen servants who were pulling him looked at each other, and they were a little at a loss when they looked at Gu Zizhan.

Gu Zizhan was surprised, but also a little angry.Not to mention her, even Gu Che had never dealt with Donggong Zhan Shifu, let alone met Cao Yan.Now Cao Yan suddenly said such specious words, which made her very displeased.

Seeing the expressions of those yamen servants, Gu Zizhan spat fiercely on the ground, "Unlucky!" Then he shouted at these yamen servants: "What are you doing in a daze, do you want me to carry you personally?" Sleeves, strode out.

Several yamen servants also quickly came to their senses. Although they didn't know Gu Zizhan's status as the prince's son, they also recognized her sixth-rank official robe. Dragging out of the cell.

Seeing Xing Kang, the other two groups of people also sent a letter, and they were all ready.Xing Kang then ordered the accompanying Dali Temple officials to take Cao Yan back to Dali Temple. He and Gu Zizhan rode horses and escorted the chariot at the end of the team.

Seeing that there was no one else around, Xing Kang suddenly asked Gu Zizhan: "I wonder why Sicheng Gu thinks, why did His Majesty entrust this case to Dali Temple?"

Gu Zizhan didn't know why he would ask this question. After thinking about it, he said cautiously: "I have heard from Wei Canjun before that this case not only involves the Jingzhao Mansion, but also the Hedong Mansion, so it is not appropriate for the Jingzhao Mansion to come forward. Your Majesty So we arranged for our Dali Temple to be in charge." Xuan added, "Could it be that Xing Temple is thinking that His Majesty has other deep meanings?"

But Xing Kang smiled, pressed the beard on the corner of his lips, and said: "It's not the first time that Jingzhao Mansion has gone out of Beijing to investigate a case, and because the former Jingzhao Yin Du Jiuling is highly respected, Jingzhao Mansion already has the reputation of a 'small criminal department'." Said that many prefectures and counties in Dazhao have directly handed over the case papers to Jingzhao Prefecture.”

"So this is not a problem at all."

Gu Zizhan was a little puzzled, so he looked at him.

There seemed to be a flash of deep meaning in Xing Kang's eyes, and he continued: "The point of this matter is that the fifth inscription is in His Majesty's heart, and he is no longer a pure minister."

"The Jingzhao Mansion received a secret report on the East Palace, but it did not report it to His Majesty at the first time. Instead, it started to investigate the case on its own initiative. It has been a whole month since the case was reported. For such a long time, there have been some rumors in the capital. However, the Fifth Ming was so tightly covered that he didn't mention a word to His Majesty. This matter involves the East Palace and is connected with the country, so it is naturally a big deal in His Majesty's heart. If he does such a thing, do you think His Majesty will doubt him?"

Gu Zizhan was a little surprised. Speaking of which, Fifth Ming's actions were not inappropriate, and they all acted in accordance with the law.But since Xing Kang said that, she wanted to hear more, so she smiled lightly: "This official has very little knowledge, so I really didn't think of this, and Xing Sizheng needs to mention something."

However, Xing Kang suppressed his smile, looked into the distance, and said leisurely: "No matter what Fifth Ming thinks, he has left a mark in His Majesty's heart this time, and his official career in the future may be a bit difficult. This matter is also a wake-up call for me.”

He changed the subject, and his tone seemed to be doubtful, "It's strange to say, His Majesty only has one son in the East Palace, and his reserve is stable. It stands to reason that there shouldn't be the risk of taking the heir, but His Majesty is so guarded against it, tsk tsk , I don’t understand.” After saying this sentence, Xing Kang covered his mouth again and again, and said with a smile: “Look at me, I made a slip of the tongue, I hope Gu Sicheng will not take it to heart.”

Gu Zizhan said with a smile: "Where is Xing Sizheng's words, you give me all you can, Zizhan is very grateful, how can I cause you trouble, please rest assured that Sizheng." Kang's words were so bold that he even mentioned the word "seizing the heir". I don't know if he did it unintentionally, or was it a deliberate attempt?

After returning to Dali Temple, Xing Kang, Li and Wang went to find Ma Chengda and Yan Junchi to return to their lives. Gu Zizhan was sitting in the room thinking about what Xing Kang said just now, when he saw Fu You leaving After entering, Wang Shuli followed behind him again.

Seeing these two people, Gu Zizhan couldn't help laughing at them: "The two brothers are reconciled now?"

Fu You became lazy again, rolled his eyes at Gu Zizhan, and didn't want to say much.

Wang Shuli smiled from the sidelines, and bowed politely, "Brother Lao is concerned, Zihua lost his sense earlier, but fortunately Brother Fu has a big belly, so he let me go." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Fu You has a round belly.

Fu You was ashamed and angry when he saw him, and he stretched out his hand to hit him on the head, but Wang Shuli hurriedly begged for mercy, "Brother Fu! You are magnanimous because you played the trumpet outside the window - you are famous, don't let it fall to my little brother! "

Gu Zizhan was amused, and asked Fu You, "What do you think of my cousin?"

Fu You sneered, "If a dog can't spit out ivory, it's not a good thing."

However, Wang Shuli nodded in agreement with Fu You, and added, "Brother Fu is different, except for a bit of a camel's butt—high eyes, he is still a good guy."

Gu Zizhan was amused by Wang Shuli's words, but Fu You was very angry, and rushed forward to fight with Wang Shuli, shouting: "Wang Zihua, you can't finish, why are you talking so much bullshit!"

While dodging, Wang Shuli retorted: "Don't hit my handsome face! I'm a little monk chanting sutras—without any intention, why are you bothering me? You're so stingy!"

Seeing the two of them making a fuss, Gu Zizhan stopped them with a busy smile and said, "Okay, then what's the business of you two coming to my place now?"

Fu You threw Wang Shuli aside, leaned forward and smiled: "Didn't you listen to what Xing Sizheng said? Li Sicheng and Wang Sicheng were talking about me and Wang Zihua. How much does this case have to do with the two prefectures of Hedong and Hexi?" If we are related, the three of us may be sent on a business trip."

Rubbing his hands together, he said again: "It's time to wait. Your grandpa Fu's bones are going to be weak after spending all day in this yamen!"

Gu Zizhan glared at him, and said coldly: "I don't know your seniority, so I will talk to my wife when I get home."

Fu You immediately hesitated, sat upright, and smiled flatteringly, "I don't need my little cousin to bother with such trivial matters." He couldn't help complaining about Gu Zizhan, "You too, anyway, you are a grand son, and you take everything with me The daughter-in-law said, are you afraid of internal fear?"

Gu Zizhan grinned: "I'm afraid of my wife, but I'm happy. After all, I have a wife to fear, but you, the third young master Fu, will show me when you are afraid of one?"

Fu You was so angry that she couldn't speak. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to pounce on him, but was stopped by Wang Shuli. Naked buttocks grinding - spinning in circles is a disgrace!"

Fu You was startled by his picturesque vulgar words, so angry that he forgot what he was going to do, he pulled Wang Shuli up and walked outside, calling as he went, "Come on, come on, go outside, your grandpa Fu has to do something today. Let you know what it means to be a tiger!"

Wang Shuli was pulled by his sleeves, and while saluting and saying goodbye to Gu Zizhan, he muttered: "It is said that people teach their sons and queens their wives. I taught you to be upright, and you have to teach me behind your back. It's a bit wrong."

Gu Zizhan was so teased by the two of them that she couldn't stop laughing. She didn't realize that this Wang Shuli was actually a little prince with a sharp tongue.The two gradually drifted away, only to hear Fu You roaring from a distance: "I want to be your grandpa Fu's little wife, you are dreaming! Oh no, Wang Zihua, you little bastard, who are you talking about?" It's your son!"  …

Seeing that the two of them finally left, Gu Zizhan fell back on the back of the chair like a discouraged ball again, and couldn't help crying in his heart: She didn't want to go on a business trip, she finally married Chu Lan back home, why did she have to travel all the way? Investigating the case, isn't it good to stay at home with your wife?

When Xing Kang came back, he really brought this "bad news" with him.The time has not been determined yet, only waiting for Si Qing and Shao Qing to arrange.

Since Emperor Tianshun has already said that Dali Temple is only responsible for tracking down the private casting of official silver, the main focus needs to be on the discovered map of the suspected private casting of official silver in Bozhou, Hedong Prefecture. As well as several other house deeds and land deeds found in Cao Yan's home.At the same time, because a map with Cao Guangshou's handwriting was found, Yan Junchi asked Emperor Tianshun to seal up Cao Guangshou's mansion.

Soon, Emperor Tianshun's decree came down, allowing Cao Guangshou's mansion to be sealed up.At the same time, the prince also ordered the suspension of Liu Shengwen's position as Zhongyun in Zuochunfang, Donggong, and ordered the closure of Liu's mansion; he also investigated Cao Shou's uncle Liu Chong's crime of malpractice for personal gain, and escorted him back to Beijing from Cizhou in Hedong mansion to search his mansion.For the search of the residences of Liu Shengwen and Liu Chong, Dali Temple can go with the East Palace.

It can be seen from this that the prince showed an extremely cooperative attitude towards the investigation of the Dali Temple this time, hoping to block the mouth of the court.

That night, Gu Zizhan only returned to Prince Yu's mansion, so Rong Qingzhai naturally couldn't go.

She had doubts in her heart, and when she heard that King Yu was waiting for her, she went directly to King Yu's courtyard.When the king went to court today, King Yu was on the spot, so the dispute in the main hall could be seen clearly.

After listening to Gu Zizhan finish talking about today's events, King Yu nodded and said, "Your Majesty is dissatisfied with this King."

Gu Zizhan frowned, and quickly asked without answering: "The Fifth Ming belongs to the father?"

But King Yu smiled: "That's not true. But Liu Shengwen is my king's man." Seeing that Gu Zizhan was puzzled, King Yu explained with rare patience: "You just saw that the fifth inscription was not reported in time, but you didn't report it in time. Do you think that Liu Shengwen only mentioned this matter recently?"

Gu Zizhan was stunned.

Fifth Ming has his own pride, otherwise he wouldn't have worked in Jing Zhaoyin's tenure for ten years, and he must be very clear about his style of doing things.On the contrary, it was Liu Shengwen who attracted a lot of attention. If he really didn't know about it and wanted to protect Cao Guangshou, he only had to report the matter the first time he shut people from the Jingzhao Mansion out.But he didn't act like this, instead, he waited until the second time Jingzhao Mansion came to arrest people and Cao Guangshou died in prison, and then he reported this matter to the officials. It was really strange that he acted repeatedly.

Thinking of this, Gu Zizhan couldn't help asking: "Did Your Majesty already know about this? Will you use this to make things difficult for your father?"

However, King Yu snorted coldly: "It is precisely because he clearly guessed but could not find any evidence that he feels dissatisfied. But without evidence, he still can't move this king."

After thinking for a while, Gu Zizhan said with a smile: "This case is quite strange. So far, we have not been able to find out who made the report letter, and the case is even more foggy. This is the first time my child is handling a case. I don't know what my father wants to do." commanded?"

She originally wanted to test whether King Yu had intervened in the case of private casting of official silver, but she didn't want King Yu to just take a deep look at her, and said slowly: "The time has not come, and this king is not impatient yet, so you don't need to be too impatient." It's urgent."

Before leaving, the King of Yu told her again: "You are in Dali Temple, and you should follow the arrangements of the Shangguan. This matter has nothing to do with my Prince Yu's Mansion, just go and investigate boldly." After a moment of silence, he added, "Now, you should It's Donggong's turn to bleed."

Gu Zizhan's heart trembled, he quickly responded, and then retreated.

Back in his yard, Gu Zizhan saw Chu Lan standing in the yard waiting for her at a glance.

Chu Lan looked up at her, her eyes were stained with tenderness, obviously already aware of what happened during the day.Gu Zizhan walked up to her, a little tired, and said with a bitter face: "There is no peach kernel cake, and there is no glutinous rice cake either."

With a smile on the corner of Chu Lan's mouth, she dragged her back into the house.Gu Zizhan sat down on the chair, looked at Chu Lan, and smiled wryly, "A Lan, I'm about to be sent on a business trip."

Chu Lan touched her face and nodded, "I found out about this when I went to the palace today. The crown prince personally handed over your errand to Yan Siqing."

Gu Zizhan pulled her hand down, and immediately wrinkled a bitter face, "It's a pity that the prince still calls me one by one on weekdays, knowing that you and I have just got married, and sent me on a long trip."

Chu Lan glanced at her, "Hedong and Hexi are not too far away, and you are not experienced enough to handle a case for the first time, so you won't be allowed to take the lead."

Gu Zizhan was exposed by her, so he smiled embarrassingly.At this moment, she was sitting on a chair, and Chu Lan was standing in front of her. When she looked up, Chu Lan's perfect jawline was clearly visible, and her white porcelain neck was exposed, making Gu Zizhan's ears warm.Afraid that Chu Lan would notice it, she hurriedly looked away and changed the subject.

Gu Zizhan told Chu Lan about the conversation with Yu Wang, and he was a little worried: "Although he said that this case has nothing to do with Yu Wang's mansion, and told me to investigate boldly, but he said that again, which always made me feel a little worried. "

The hands of the two were still holding each other, and Chu Lan sat down beside her.

"Prince Yu has always been dissatisfied with the East Palace, and it is normal to want to add insult to injury. Since he said that it has nothing to do with the Palace of Yu, you don't need to think too much about it right now. Let's see the situation first. However, it is precisely because the East Palace is involved that the Crown Prince is worried There was an accident, so I pointed out this errand to you. Letting you participate also shows the trust and value for you." Slightly pursing his lips, looking at Gu Zizhan's expression, he paused and continued, "If you feel bad, I can, I can go and beg him to keep you."

Gu Zizhan laughed, and shook the hands they were holding, "I understand the mastery of the superior, and I am not unhappy. Besides, he put me in, which also shows that this matter is indeed related to King Yu. It has nothing to do with it, it just eased my heart." She could tell that Chu Lan was really afraid that she would be unhappy because of her upcoming trip.Feeling a little moved in my heart, I leaned up to her and whispered, "Alan, you are so kind."

When she approached suddenly, Chu Lan didn't notice it for a moment, but felt a gust of hot air blowing from her ears, making her cheeks hot and stained with peach blossoms.She dodged subconsciously, but she didn't want Gu Zizhan's lips to slide past her face.

The momentary contact disturbed the hearts of the two of them.

For Yu Chulan, the beating heartbeat in the chest, and this strange sweetness and shyness, finally accumulated to the point where it could no longer be ignored.
