Chapter 23
According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, when the father dies, all ancestral properties and shadows are inherited by the eldest son, and the eldest son will pass on to the eldest grandson. However, the Ming Dynasty has been passed down for a hundred years, and the laws established when the country was founded were already deformed when they were actually implemented. In the most recent example, Fu Yue, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, stepped over his son and passed the title of lord directly to his grandson; the commander Lu Song also bypassed the eldest son and passed the hereditary official position of Jinyiwei to the second son Lu Heng.
Fu Tingzhou and Lu Heng are considered to be outstanding in their personal abilities, and they have an exceptional inheritance, but there are more ordinary people in the world, and there is not much difference in intelligence. For example, in Liang Wei's family, according to the etiquette and law, the eldest son should inherit the position of the thousand households, but if the second son inherits the official position on the grounds that his talent is more outstanding, it can actually be done.
Wang Yanqing's face showed a stunned expression, she was angry, and said: "This makes sense. Liang Wei's body is not cold, but Liang Wenshi's original wife and eldest daughter died at this time, even disregarding his own reputation, most of them have other Conspiracy. This case is definitely not through Jian."
Wang Yanqing said, Lu Heng listened quietly. After Wang Yanqing finished speaking, he sighed and said, "Qingqing is really smart, much more intelligent than those officials outside."
When Wang Yanqing heard that this sentence was wrong, she had a bad premonition: "Could it be that this case has been sentenced?"
"That's right." Lu Heng's tone was tired, like a sigh but not a sigh, which verified Wang Yanqing's guess, "The case has been settled, and the commander Chen Du has agreed with the result. was executed."
Wang Yanqing tried to ask, "Is the commander of Chen Du..."
"Mr. Chen Yin, Chen." Lu Heng looked at Wang Yanqing, the light inside was deep, and there seemed to be an undercurrent, "The second-rank commander, in charge of Jinyiwei, is also my superior."
Wang Yanqing was silent for a while, the case decided by Chief Lu Heng, this...
This is the case in officialdom, especially when the Lu family joins the army, the army cares most about rank. The chief felt that this was a pass, and should be executed.
Wang Yanqing lowered her eyes and thought about it for a while, but she still felt annoyed: "But, that's a living life. A woman who hasn't left the cabinet was executed for the crime of conspiracy. What if she was wronged?"
Lu Heng sighed and looked at Wang Yanqing deeply. Those amber eyes were sparkling, filled with disappointment, sigh, and request, like an old wine, almost pouring into Wang Yanqing's heart: "This is also what I can't bear. Disobeying Shangguan is a serious crime, Qingqing. , would you like to help me?"
Chapter 9 Questioning
Lu Heng's eyes were sincere and enthusiastic, Wang Yanqing seemed to be bewitched, and subconsciously wanted to agree to his words. She paused before asking, "What do you want me to do?"
Lu Heng smiled, pressed Wang Yanqing's hand affectionately, and comforted: "Don't be nervous, I just want you to help me see a few people and identify whether they lied or not. I want to overturn the case set by the commander Chen Du. , you must have full confidence. Would you like to follow me to Baoding and visit the Liang family in person?"
This time Wang Yanqing was really surprised. She just lost her memory, not stupid. Of course she realized that Lu Heng was guiding her. She thought that Lu Heng wanted to use her ability to do something, but unexpectedly, it was only for this case.
Wang Yanqing looked Lu Heng in the eyes and said honestly, "I thought you wouldn't care about such trivial matters."
Lu Heng is the commander of the third grade, and he is a well-known figure in the capital. An ordinary civilian case cannot be delivered to him at all. This case was not convicted or tried by him. He had no need to disobey his superiors for a small person.
Wang Yanqing's eyes were so clear that he could look to the end. Lu Heng looked into her eyes and realized that she had probably misunderstood something. Lu Heng smiled and said, "I'm not as noble as you think, and I've always been too lazy to deal with things that have nothing to do with me. It's just that this case happened to show me, and the flaws are really obvious. Let this kind of fool get his wish, yes The insult to Jin Yiwei, so I only thought about it for two more days. Qingqing, you are really smart, since you have seen through my intentions, then I ask you, are you willing?"
Wang Yanqing sighed slightly and said, "You are my second brother, no matter what your purpose is to help the Liang family's daughter overturn the case, it is enough that you are willing to take action. You let me speak freely in front of you, and similarly, you don't have to tell me Explain your intentions. I trust you."
"Why?" Lu Heng raised his eyebrows, his eyes hidden with inquiry, and looked at her deeply, "Just because I'm your second brother?"
"Since I choose to believe you, I will accept all of you as a human being." Wang Yanqing said, blinking her eyes deliberately, and said with a smile, "Who asked you to bring me home in the first place."
The first time Wang Yanqing saw him, he knew that this man was scheming and shrewd, and he would never give goodwill in vain. Including that tonight he suddenly told her about the Liang family's case, and he had other plans behind it. However, Wang Yanqing was willing to be the knife in his hand.
This is the person she can't forget even with amnesia, how can she reject him?
Wang Yanqing didn't want the atmosphere to be too heavy, and deliberately joked to brighten the atmosphere, but Lu Heng just smiled and didn't seem to be pleased. Lu Heng sneered coldly in his heart, he shouldn't have asked that sentence, just stop at Wang Yanqing saying he believes in him, and let everything stay on the illusion of flowers and affection, isn't it good? Why do you have to ask to wear it, only to lose interest.
