Chapter 287 Retribution 1
Yan Kaizhi will be scolded. In fact, it has nothing to do with him asking him to take over Lanzhi. There are too many people involved in Pingzhou's matter. Xu He's foundation is too deep, not to mention that the He family still has the Empress Dowager supporting him. Hongyi has to think of a thorough reason to cure it. The Xu family was detained in Beijing, but Xu Xinru's death was incited by the Xu family's emotions by people. In three days, someone participated in Yan Kaizhi's foundation.
In fact, in Hongyi's opinion, this daughter was forced by the Xu family, and the Empress Dowager's order made Yan Kaizhi even have no choice but to refuse. Now that something has happened, Yan Kaizhi is to blame. This is obviously a malicious planting. But no matter what the deceased is, no matter what Xu Xinru did before, now that she dies, most people will still stand on her side.
Although Hongyi didn't say anything, he also complained a little. If he didn't come, everything came together.
If it's just a disturbance of the Xu family, it's okay. After all, they are now detained in Beijing and can't find any waves. Hongyi thought that he could wait for things to calm down first, and then come to them to settle accounts one by one, but God did not fulfill his wishes. The Xu family was taken into Beijing, and new tricks appeared in Pingzhou. The jade seal dragon robe that appeared strangely twice in a row appeared again, and it was placed on the road at the gate of the government in the middle of the night, almost tripping over the husband.
It was more exposed. At the beginning of the month, the sudden change in Pingzhou made everyone close their doors early and dare not speak loudly. There is only the lonely swimming lamp of the watchman on the dark street. Looking back on that night, the watchman feels more and more cold. I went out and took a sip of liquor to warm myself up, but I was still scared by the cloth bag halfway. But when he came to his senses and opened the cloth bag curiously, a bloody head scared him even more.
Because the head is not someone else, it is He Jialangjun He Sanzhao, who is a famous prodigal son in Pingzhou, but also the future owner. In terms of generation, Hongyi's maternal grandfather was He Sanzhao's grandfather's brother, and the Empress Dowager He had a good relationship with her uncle's family before she married.
In this way, the He family naturally refused to give up. Their future owner was murdered, and they had to find out the murderer and remove eight yuan.
However, not to mention that Pingzhou is Xu He's territory, it is not easy for others to take action in their territory, but now there is still a royal history. Even if this murderer has a great hatred with He Sanzhao, he is too bold.
However, what shocked the emperor was not the death of the future head of the He family, but the dragon robe and jade seal that appeared in the great prince's mansion. The imperial history did not dare to be careless. He sent people to send things into the palace overnight to escape that the crab hole was done by the ancestors and had nothing to do with them. However, the dragon robe jade seal was different. Soon, it appeared in the grand prince's mansion with the intention of rebelling. Yan Kaizhi led people to search the whole grand prince's mansion without finding it. After a few years, he actually appeared in Pingzhou again.
No one knows when and who did the dragon robe jade seal, but everyone knows that the first appearance was in Prince Demin's bedroom, and the second appearance was in the eldest prince's mansion of Hongwen. Although Prince Demin died of an emergency, it was still privately told that he intended to rebel and ascend the throne before he was ordered to be poisoned by the emperor, and so was Hongwen. Now it's He Sanzhao's turn to die so strangely, and with these rebellious things, people have to wonder whether he was murdered because he hid the dragon robe and jade seal.
Naturally, the He family will not admit that the death of a Langjun is enough to make them sad, and they will be charged with rebellion, which is even more resentful. However, what Hongyi wanted to know more was where the dragon robe jade seal was hidden before He Sanzhao was killed.
When it comes to Chengde Building, Pingzhou's entry and exit are very strict, and almost every family has to search it. Obviously, this thing can't have been brought into the city recently. Therefore, this dragon robe jade seal should have been in Pingzhou at least before the treasure map appeared.
The more Hongyi thought about it, the more angry he became. The more he thought about it, the more he felt terrible it became. First, it was aimed at the fierce array of the capital and even the palace, and now there is a dragon robe jade seal. This rebellious heart is already obvious. Whether it is the Xu family or the He family, it is enough to kill the nine clan. Hongyi didn't think much about it. He immediately ordered Fang Youxin to leave for Pingzhou immediately, and it was necessary to find out the matter. As soon as she heard Fang Youxin, even the Empress Dowager He couldn't sit still. With Fang Youxin as a person, you won't stop if you don't turn over Pingzhou. Not to mention arresting the murderer, I'm afraid that the old background of the He family will be vacavated.
However, this matter can't be stopped or stopped. He Sanzhao's body is still missing. How can the He family stop?
As soon as Fang Youxin arrived in Pingzhou, the palace immediately received the news that He Sanzhao's body was found in the ditch not far from the back door of the Xu family. Now Pingzhou became more chaotic and completely became a pot of porridge. The He family accused the Xu family of killing, and the Xu family refuted the He family's false accusation, but no one admitted the matter of the dragon robe and jade seal. Not only Pingzhou, but also the officials surnamed Xu He in the capital hate each other.
Compared with foreign enemies, internal trouble is more troublesome. Hongyi has a hard time, and naturally he will not let Yan Kaizhi be idle.
Lin stood not far away and watched Mrs. Yan kneel in front of the Buddha statue chanting sutras. Suddenly, she heard a small and crisp sound. Mrs. Yan touched her heart with her hand, as if she were bowing in pain. Lin was so scared that she ran over and found that the Buddha beads that had been hanging in Mrs. Yan's hand were inexplicably broken, and Bodhisattvas were scattered everywhere, while Mrs. Yan's face was pale and her whole body was shaking slightly.
Lin Shi quickly picked her up and asked nervously, "Madam, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong? I'll call a doctor right away. Come on!"
"No!" Mrs. Yan shouted fiercely, which shocked Lin. Then she breathed down and shook her head, "Just pour me a glass of water."
The maid who was called in looked at Mrs. Yan's ugly face on the chair and looked at Lin with a worried face. It was not until Lin nodded that she quietly came in to pick up Buddha beads. Lin poured a glass of warm water and walked to Mrs. Yan. Looking at her closed eyes, her eyebrows were condensed.
"Madam, the water is coming." Lin shouted cautiously.
Mrs Yan opened her eyes, her eyes were cloudy and covered with red silk, as if she hadn't slept for a few days. She took the water and was stunned for a long time before drinking all the water. When she handed the cup to Lin, she happened to see the maid pick up all the Buddha beads. She frowned, "Crush them all and bury them in the incense burner." The maid secretly glanced at Lin Shi, and then nodded and retreated.
Lin was familiar with Mrs. Yan's temper and said gently, "Madam, how about I help you to have a rest? You haven't slept peacefully for several nights."
Mrs. Yan raised the corners of her mouth and showed a faint smile. She looked very tired. "I guess I will live well in a few days. Let me read the scriptures many more times and accumulate more yin virtues for the three of their family." But after saying that, the smile deepened and said sarcastically, "This Buddha beads are broken. I don't know if the Bodhisattva dislikes me for being too dirty."
Lin was scared by Mrs. Yan's words and immediately knelt down for her. "Mrs, please don't say such a thing. You are in your prime, and you have to wait for your husband to give birth to many children to the marquis and call your grandmother. Madam is so young, what can this family do if you don't support her!"
Mrs Yan shook her head indifferently and reached out to help Lin. "She is not as weak as you think, and she doesn't need me to help her. I know that I am a dirty person and really don't deserve to be by their side, which will only bring them disaster. You know, I have dreamed of the master for several nights. He scolded me and refused to forgive me. I can see him as soon as I close my eyes now. Mrs. Yan said that she trembled with fear, and her face showed helpless and sad.
Lin is anxious. Since a few days ago, Mrs. Yan woke up in the middle of the night several times in a row, and there has been something wrong with her. Asked her what she dreamed of, she just said that she dreamed of Yan Su and cursed her. Lin knew that Yan Su and his wife had a good relationship, and Yan Su's death caused a great blow to Mrs. Yan. However, for so many years, she, who had never had nightmares, was frequently awakened, and after waking up, she insisted on kneeling in the Buddhist hall to recite scriptures without eating or drinking. Lin was anxious and wanted to ask for a doctor, but Mrs. Yan refused and even allowed the people in the yard to tell Shaohua.
For four or five consecutive days, she was restless and unable to eat. Lin knelt in front of her and begged her to treat herself well, but Mrs. Yan seemed to see through the world and insisted that she was atonement. Originally, she wanted to secretly report to Shaohua while Mrs. Yan was resting, but Mrs. Yan seemed to see through her mind.
"Well, don't think about it. I'm fine. I know very well that she is not dead yet. I won't let myself fall down." Mrs. Yan sighed deeply. Seeing that Lin still bowed her head and said nothing, she frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? I'm fine."
Lin raised her hazy tears and cried, "Madam, you will not be happy if you know about yourself like this."
Mrs. Yan scolded angrily: "What do you know! I'm taking revenge for him. If I don't take revenge, he won't be happy. Wait a little longer, as long as they are all dead, my sins will be cleared.
Lin shook his head and cried, "I don't understand. I don't understand that my wife has to torture herself so much. Have you ever thought that if the marquis knew, he would feel so bad. What should I do if Mrs. Lan comes back and can't see you?" Lin couldn't persuade Mrs. Yan to self-harm, and she felt more uncomfortable than her.
Probably thinking of her daughter, Mrs. Yan paused for a moment, but resolutely shook off Lin's hand and stood up to go back to the Buddha statue to continue chant. Unexpectedly, Mengji had emptied her body for many days. If she didn't stand firmly, she fainted. Scared, Lin immediately rushed up, shook Mrs. Yan's body hard, and shouted, "Madame, wake up, wake up! Come on, come on!"
"What's the matter? Madam!" The maid at the door was also shocked when she ran in.
Lin wiped away her tears and said, "Go and invite your wife over!"
Looking at the thin master, Lin decided that even if she was complained by Mrs. Yan for the rest of her life, she could not hide it for her.
