MTL - Enter the Room-Chapter 281

  Chapter 281

  Song Jiyun suddenly became interested, and asked Mr. Song Shiyi about this matter carefully: "Who did you hear it from? Has there ever been such a thing before?"

Elder Song Song said with a smile: "The Xiong family, the second girl's in-law's family, was able to buy such a large forest in Wuyuan. It was because their ancestors had an in-law who was a clerk in Wuyuan County. They got the news in advance that an official family in Wuyuan was arrested. During the inspection, I spent some money to open the joints."

  He said, pointing in the direction of Yin Yutang: "Isn't there a ready-made one next to it? If you ask me, you might as well ask my uncle!"

  Song Jiyun thought of the thick official documents on his desk when she visited Yuan Yunzhong, and said with a smile: "You can also keep an eye on it for me."

  Elder Song Eleven naturally readily agreed.

  Song Jiyun paid more attention to the affairs of the Hong family than ever before.

   Song Tao in prison was trembling.

  Ever since Hong Xi "revealed" his true colors without any scruple that day, she has been cautiously staring at Hong Xi to prevent Hong Xi from throwing her out as a shield.

   Even so, she didn't see clearly what tricks Hong Xi used, but within a day, the cell boss who was not pretending to them suddenly began to be kind to Hong Xi. Not only did the people carrying Jin Yiwei secretly deliver food and drink to Hong Xi, but they also sent news to Hong Xi.

"Jiangxi Zuobu Zhengshi, Left and Right Counselors, Duliangdao, Ducedao... have all been held accountable." The prison chief stuffed the change of clothes brought in from outside into Hong Xi's arms, and said, "Before, the Ningwang's mansion Didn’t Chang Shi run away? Not only was he found this time, he was also beheaded directly by the Governor.”

  Hearing this news, not to mention old Mrs. Hong, even Hong Xi was taken aback, and said, "He was beheaded right away? Was there no interrogation?"

   "Ah!" the prison chief sighed, "What kind of trial is it? The governor has a sword of Shangfang, and he can kill whoever he says. How about the left political officer? From the third grade, if you say you go to prison, you go to prison."

  Where is there any talk about Shang Fang's sword, it's just scribbled in the drama.

  Even if the governor represents the emperor, it is impossible to kill people like this. And Yuan Yunzhong dared to be so unscrupulous, he must have something to rely on.

  Hong Xi glanced at the dignified Old Master Hong, as if he did it on purpose, and said, "The long history of Prince Ning's Mansion has been away for a while, right? How can you find it? If you say kill it, kill it?"

The prison chief probably heard a lot of gossip these days, and shared with him happily: "I heard from the police in the yamen that the Governor and the others already knew where the long history was, but they thought he belonged to King Ning. The confidants were afraid that if they caught him back, he would say everything like beans in a bamboo tube, and the Governor and the others would not deal well with King Ning, nor would they deal with him well, so they simply let him go.

   "Who knew that he was so brave, he didn't go far at all, and he was counting on King Ning to help him, so he sent people to pay his respects to King Ning from time to time, hoping that King Ning would exonerate him.

   "No, the governor sent someone to arrest each one. But he still relied on King Ning's favor and trust in him, so he resisted arrest.

   "Didn't he just court death?

   "Being killed by the governor as an example to the monkeys, set an example. That's the same thing!"

After hearing this, Hong Xi smiled and said, "Thank you for telling me the news. When the housekeeper of our family comes to visit the prison, I would like to ask you to make it easier for me. I also want to let him know that you have always treated our family very well in prison. Take care, let him thank you well."

  The head of the cell was flushed, his eyes were greedy, but he said modestly: "It's easy to say, easy to say. Who doesn't know that the Hong family is our great kind person in Jingdezhen. When the misunderstanding is resolved, good days are yet to come!"

   "Accept your auspicious words!" Hong Xi said politely, "What about the Zuo Buzheng envoys? Are they just being questioned? Is there any reprimand from the court?"

Hearing the words, the prison chief looked around and saw that there was no one in the cell, so he lowered his voice and said, "The matter is of great importance. Most of the people in our Jiangxi official circles have been involved. The Zuo Buzheng said they were arrested." He was held accountable, but he was actually locked up. There is someone from Congjiang county magistrate, you should know him? It has been confirmed that he is the governor’s senior brother, and the relationship between the two is very good. The words from his side must be reliable, saying This time, the governor said that if everything is done in accordance with the law and not punished by the public, then wouldn't the public be able to make friends and take bribes.

"Our lord Bo Ke said, the governor is brilliant in writing, and his pen is as sharp as a sharp edge. If you pass these few sentences up, they will die if they don't die. The most taboo thing for the emperor is to have private friends. They dare to collude and work together to help King Ning , would not have violated the emperor's rebellion."

  Hong Xi's smile suddenly seemed a bit forced when he heard the words, but he still said: "It can be seen that Mr. Bo is also very powerful. You can see it."

   "That's it!" The prison chief boasted a few words before leaving.

  But Old Master Hong looked as if he had been hit hard, his face was pale, and he seemed unable to stand up.

  He asked Hong Xi in a deep voice: "Did you really let Ah Zhao's name fall on those documents?"

  Hong Xi smiled and said, "Why should I lie to you!"

  Old Master Hong didn’t speak for a long time, but he said with a shocking "yes", "I promise you. You have to promise me too, and you are not allowed to embarrass you, Zhao."

   Hong Zhao realized something and eagerly called out "grandfather".

  Grandpa Hong and Hong Xi both ignored him and continued talking.

   "Why am I embarrassing him?" Hong Xi said with a smile, "I just want to protect myself."

   "Okay!" Old Master Hong said gloomyly, "Remember what you said. If you dare to trouble Ah Zhao, I will never let you go."

  Hong Xi said disdainfully: "Instead of thinking about how to make a ghost and trouble me after that, why don't you think about how to remove Hong's photo?"

  Grandpa Hong took a deep look at him, stood up and walked to the prison bar, shouting loudly: "Come here! I want to surrender myself."

   "Grandfather!" Hong Zhao shouted.

  The desolate voice still echoed in Song Tao's ears, Hong Xi began to force Hong Zhao to write a separation document after Mrs. Hong was taken away.

"Otherwise, even if grandfather agrees to you, it will be difficult to pick you clean." Hong Xi's voice was neither high nor low, and his tone was a little impatient, but to Song Tao's ears, it sounded like a devil's whisper, "You take this text I wrote it to prove that the Hong family had separated their property five years ago, before I went home, and the Hong family's property has nothing to do with you, so naturally those things have nothing to do with you."

Hong Zhao, on the other hand, could take it easy, smiled at him rather sadly, and said, "At this moment, you are still thinking about how to get the Hong family's property, it seems that you are really sure that you can get out of this situation." Get out of the strife. Congratulations! I hope you get what you want."

  He wrote the paperwork without saying a word, signed it, and drew it.

  Hong Xi carefully put away the paperwork, and said: "Don't worry, since I promised my grandfather, I will definitely not make things difficult for you again."

   "Grandpa will believe you." Hong Zhao lowered his eyelids, his face full of bitterness, "You didn't leave my name on those documents at all, did you? You really took great pains to deceive grandpa and the family business."

Hong Xi laughed disapprovingly, and said: "No wonder grandpa always praises you for being smart, you are indeed very smart. Yes, I coaxed grandpa, but I just wanted him to take the blame. It's not too late for you to know now, you can go and complain , hand me over."

   "Can I hand you over?" Hong Zhao looked at Hong Xi blankly, and murmured, "I'm afraid that even if I go to appeal for injustice, I will fall into your trick. Not only will my grandfather not be exonerated, but he will suffer even more?"

   "You're smart." Hong Xi turned around with a sneer, and met Song Tao's eyes who were eavesdropping.

  Song Tao was so frightened that she quickly lowered her head and shrank in the corner of the wall.

  Unexpectedly, a yamen servant stood at the door of the prison and called her: "Miss Song San, someone is here to visit your prison."
