Chapter 841 Exploration
Thinking that the officials who came to Tanzhou were killed one after another, Chu Nanzhi looked at Ma Laifu who was very interested, and said worriedly: "Laifu, I support you to scout for information for your brother-in-law, but you must be more careful. This Land of Green Grass is no better than Haikang County, if you are not careful, you will encounter hard stubble, it doesn’t matter if you offend these people, but your safety makes me worry.”
"Sister Zhi, don't worry, I will be careful."
Ma Laifu replied with a relaxed face.
Although Chu Nanzhi is still not clear about the intention of Xiaobailian to call Fufu into Beijing, but based on what he revealed earlier, it is presumably that he wants to set up an organization similar in nature to Jinyiwei to monitor officials.
That was a **** job. Since I have recognized this younger brother, I have to protect him well.
Just about to ask Du Qian to remove the chicken, duck and fish from the table, but before he could speak, he saw Ji Wanying walking in slowly with tiny steps.
Just glanced at the delicacies on the table, she came forward coquettishly and began to complain: "I heard that the emperor's brother specially prepared a royal chef who is proficient in cooking for the emperor's sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law who cooked so many delicious dishes unexpectedly It's not authentic to hide it from Wanying."
"You eat, I will give you all."
Chu Nanzhi was feeling depressed right now, and she didn't have a good look at this little princess at all.
Ji Wanying was taken aback by her posture, and she didn't dare to act coquettish again. She immediately changed her expression and asked seriously: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you, could it be that someone angered sister-in-law?"
"Who dares."
Chu Nanzhi looked at her pretending to please her, and deliberately provoked: "I am the empress now, the person on the heart of your emperor's brother, who dares to anger me?"
These words directly hit Ji Wanying's sore spot.
She smiled wryly and pressed the corners of her lips: "It's my younger sister who is supercilious, and my sister-in-law is so beautiful in the world. It's too late for everyone to please me."
Seeing her aggrieved expression, and thinking about the purpose of this trip, Chu Nanzhi immediately calmed down, looked at her meaningfully, and asked with a smile: "Princess, your imperial brother wants to kill your second uncle, but this palace I really can't bear it, if your uncle really intends to rebel, what should you do?"
"Sister-in-law, you are joking, how could my uncle rebel."
Ji Wanying stared at her with a smile on her face, but seeing that she was still staring at herself intently, she replied truthfully: "Sister-in-law actually already has the answer in her heart, otherwise why would she come to Tanzhou in person?"
"It is because I came here in person that I have this concern."
Chu Nanzhi forced her to be speechless, so she had no choice but to express her position: "Now the emperor's elder brother has power all over the world, and he has millions of cavalry in his hands. Even if my uncle is rebellious, he is not confused. This kind of self-destructive foundation He won't do anything, not to mention that my sister-in-law understands righteousness and will not hesitate to risk herself for my Ji family, even if he has the guts, I will work with brother Rong Heng to persuade uncle to rein in the precipice and return to Beijing as soon as possible."
"The princess sees it very clearly now."
Chu Nanzhi smiled and said: "Right now several officials of the imperial court have died in Tanzhou, I am afraid that the persuasion of you two brothers and sisters alone will not help. If you can't clear up the suspicion for him, how can he return to Beijing with peace of mind? I am sure." One way, I heard that Xia Yuan, the supervisor of Dangyang County, returned to Beijing to **** a roster in charge of the Qinghe noble family that your mother held when she was alive, and was murdered by others. Now that book is gone. There are no traces, but the princess and the eldest princess have a deep love between mother and daughter, even if you don’t know where the roster is, you should know that the eldest princess had contacts with those nobles during her lifetime, maybe we can find this book by following the clues.”
“I never heard my mother mention it.”
Ji Wanying was confused when she heard this, and quickly denied: "The emperor's sister-in-law should also know that I have been in the palace since I was a child, and I am withdrawn by nature. I have never associated with noble families like Qinghe. Even if it is my second uncle, I only stay with him I met a few times when I went back to Beijing to visit relatives, as for the other uncles and uncles, I can’t even pronounce their names.”
"Oh, I see."
Chu Nanzhi frowned slightly, and smiled at her: "It seems that this is indeed just a rumor, I don't think your uncle and these nobles are so bold, raising hundreds of thousands of songs is obviously against the court Well, even if they had a hundred heads, it wouldn't be enough to cut them off."
"What my sister-in-law said is very true."
Ji Wanying felt that she was a little weird today, so she didn't dare to stay for long, so she got up and said goodbye: "I heard from Brother Rong Heng that uncle is already on his way to meet him, and sister-in-law should rest early, and she has to hurry on her way tomorrow."
"Um."
Chu Nanzhi responded lightly, and watched her leave in a hurry.
Ma Laifu's eyes were full of disdain, and after she left, he sneered coldly: "The facts of this county princess's trip are confusing. She had sworn before that she would help Sister Zhi persuade Ji Shishi to return to Beijing, but now she has changed her words and said that she will go to the capital with her." Governor Ji is not very close to the nobles of Qinghe, since she is so self-deprecating, why should she follow us all the way to Tanzhou to suffer from the bumps."
"Perhaps the princess has stayed in Beijing for a long time and wants to come out to relax."
Chu Nanzhi casually made a perfunctory sentence, and immediately changed the subject: "Laifu, where did you get the news from today?"
Ma Laifu patted his bulging purse triumphantly: "This is not a secret thing. People can make sincere friends wherever they have money in the rivers and lakes."
"This matter is related to several murder cases. We can't make a fuss at the moment, but you have to take good care of your friends."
Thinking about the extermination of the nurse's family in Langzhou, Chu Nanzhi vaguely reminded her.
These words immediately aroused Ma Laifu's vigilance: "Sister Zhi reminded me that I will try to settle them down right away."
After talking, he rushed out the door in a hurry.
After Chu Nanzhi asked Du Qian to clean up the food on the table, thinking that she would be separated from Sang Qi soon, she continued to sleep with this little foreign beauty that night.
The two talked until very late before falling asleep.
Woke up the next day, Sang Qi packed up her makeup and went to open the door, but the moment the door opened, she saw Ma Laifu and Tang Weiming waiting outside the door, so she had to lead them in first.
Seeing Ma Laifu's bitter face like a papaya, Chu Nanzhi pursed her lips and smiled and couldn't help but joked: "Why, in just one night, Laifu, you became dejected, but what happened? ?”
Ma Laifu pouted and nodded: "It's all my fault for not thinking well, sister Zhi, the people who took my money yesterday disappeared out of thin air, I found the house of one of them, but the whole family has disappeared , Said he moved."
"That's why."
Chu Nanzhi had already expected that this visit to Tanzhou would not be very smooth, and then comforted her: "It is very good that you can inquire about these things, at least it proves that there is indeed something tricky in Tanzhou, and it is not groundless, as for these witnesses I think these incidents are just the tip of the iceberg in Tanzhou, as long as the curtain is lifted and the people are given a chance to speak, it is not easy to know something.”
After receiving this comfort, Ma Laifu felt much more at ease.
"Since they are alert, you should stop acting on your own and stay with me."
Thinking that this kid has disappeared without a trace since entering the border of Binzhou, Chu Nanzhi guessed that he must have gone alone to make those so-called friends who can confide in him.
If he is allowed to go out alone now, his life may be lost.
