Detective in the Red Chamber
Page 411
Then he explained: "When the deficit was investigated, few of the managers in the whole family were innocent. Only this old man, Lin Zhixiao, who is in charge of the bank account, has never been greedy for anything. It’s also very important to be a human being.”
"It's best to be born in Xiaohong. She was just a low-level maid in our courtyard, which is evident."
"Because of this, in the past two or three years, the mansion has trusted him a lot and ordered him to take care of many things, and the official Lin's family has never lived up to this trust, and they have taken care of the housework in an orderly manner."
"According to me, he has made great achievements in the past two years."
"But now Sister Feng, she just beat and killed his daughter"
It turned out that he felt ashamed of the Lin family, no wonder he was obviously biased towards Wang Xifeng, and he even put on a tangled look.
Saying
Sun Shaozong didn't know that Lin Hongyu was actually a master with roots until today!
Lin Zhixiao, now the second housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion, is second only to Zhou Rui who was promoted to replace Lai Da in terms of status, and is probably better than Zhou Rui in terms of the affection of his ancestors.
His family's daughter, even if she is not wooed, should at least have a higher opinion than others, but how dare Jia Lian use it like this?
Aren't you afraid that Lin Zhixiao will hold a grudge, secretly learn from Lai Da, and use his hands to empty out Jia's mansion?
"Second brother."
After Jia Baoyu finished talking, he couldn't help but return to the old question: "If you encounter such a thing, how should you deal with it?"
"Disposal?"
Sun Shaozong scanned Jia Baoyu up and down, leaned back on the cushion again, shook his head and said, "Don't say whether you have the ability to deal with it, even if you are capable enough, it's not your turn to deal with this matter."
After a short pause, he added another sentence: "Unless you are going to go to the government to kill relatives righteously!"
Having said that, his eyes became sharper.
"This"
Jia Baoyu felt uncomfortable being looked at by him, and looked away in embarrassment, and said awkwardly: "Sister Feng probably didn't do it on purpose, so she made trouble in the court anyway."
Although he felt ashamed of the Lin family in his heart, he dared not and was unwilling to let him uphold justice for Lin Hongyu.
This belly is tender and full of knots, but to put it bluntly, there are only two words: hypocritical!
Sun Shaozong sighed, stood up, and greeted the outside: "Come here, set out the food and wine, I want to have a few drinks with Uncle Jia!"
Baoyu also stood up subconsciously, and said hesitantly: "Second brother, this"
"What is this? Since I can't think of a reason, I might as well get drunk with you to relieve my worries. When I wake up later, I guess this matter has already been suppressed by the Lin family. There shouldn't be only such a daughter, right?"
"There are also a son and a daughter."
"Then drink first!"
Seeing that the servants moved the tables and chairs to the center, and brought in the spirits that had been prepared long ago, Sun Shaozong pressed Jia Baoyu in front of the table, slapped the mud seal, and poured two large bowls with the wine jar, and then Raise your head first and do it first.
Firstly, Jia Baoyu wanted to drink away his worries, but secondly, he couldn't save face, so he gritted his teeth and accompanied him.
It took about a quarter of an hour to go back and forth, and the food was only half served, and Jia Baoyu had already slipped under the table.
With a big wave of his hand, Sun Shaozong ordered soft and delicious liqueur to be served instead. It is strange to have a good meal with the food. Others have a special liking for high-grade baijiu after time travel, but he prefers this sweet and sour fruit wine.
Seeing that he was full, Sun Shaozong hastily withdrew his troops, called Wang Jin, the concierge, and said, "Go, let someone send a message to Yuanyang that tomorrow I will send 200 taels of silver to Steward Lin of Rongguo Mansion, and say that I sent the funeral ceremony." .”
Although Sun Shaozong didn't have much affection for Lin Hongyu, who loves playing tricks on dragons and phoenixes, after all, he had a romantic relationship once.
This time she passed away, and she had something to do with Sun Shaozong to some extent, so spending some money to buy peace of mind is also part of the question.
As for justice for Lin Hongyu?
These days, the master accidentally killed the slave, and the most serious crime is exile for hundreds of miles. With the current momentum of the Rongguo Mansion, this is almost impossible to achieve a heavy sentence.
Therefore, even if Sun Shaozong was willing to take the risk of offending the future prince and report the crime, it would probably be a situation where he was fined three glasses of wine in the end.
The gap between input and output is so large that it really makes people unable to arouse the desire for justice.
Chapter 718
【Second Update】
The next morning, until Sun Shaozong went out, Jia Baoyu was still sleeping soundly in the guest room, and it seemed that he would not wake up until noon.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong ordered his servants to prepare soup for him to sober up, and then went to the Yamen to Shanggong.
After arriving at Dali Temple, it was originally necessary to follow the usual practice and go to the flower hall for a round table meeting. As soon as the clinker signed the letter at Dianmao, the small official on duty told Sun Shaozong that not only was the morning meeting canceled today, but also in the next few days. All were cancelled.
According to Lord Tingwei's intention, when will the 'poisoning case' be found out, and when will the morning meeting be resumed.
tsk~
Sure enough, Wei Yi was cornered.
In fact, for Sun Shaozong, it would be more in line with his wish not to hold the Naluoshizi morning meeting forever.
Although the modern morning meetings are all clichés and nothing new to speak of, at least there are enough people, and it won't be too conspicuous to take a nap secretly.
That's good, every day the three old brothers face each other, like hosting a variety show, not to mention dozing off secretly, one mouth and even the leeks on the teeth can be seen clearly.
It's a pity that this case has a huge impact, and it will definitely attract criticism if it is dragged on for a long time.
Otherwise, Sun Shaozong really wanted to keep procrastinating.
Less gossip.
But he said that since the morning meeting was canceled, Sun Shaozong naturally went straight to Zuo Temple, and when he saw the door of his official office, he saw a person coming up with a smile on his face, but it wasn't Chen Jingde who was regarded as an abandoned son yesterday, who else could it be?
Yesterday, Sun Shaozong made up his mind to use him as an example to others.
But seeing his pitiful appearance now, he suddenly changed his mind.
It's not that I'm sorry for this guy, but that there is really no one under his command - Chen Jingde, who is on the left and right, has just been tricked by Wei Yi for a while, and he will definitely not dare to associate with him again in a short time, so he just took advantage of the situation and used it to relieve the lack of people Available urgently.
Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong's face softened a little, and before Chen Jingde could speak, he raised his hand and stepped in: "Let's go in and talk."
Chen Jingde hurriedly shut his mouth, gave way to the side, and waited for Sun Shaozong to walk in front without hesitation, then he was two steps behind, stooped, and followed in step by step.
"Second brother."
As soon as he entered the door, another person greeted him, but it was Liu Xianglian who was full of righteous indignation, and he heard him accuse angrily: "Yesterday, I got your order to go to Shuntian Mansion to ask for the records of the black post case. Who would have thought that Niaozhi was procrastinating, and when he came back with great difficulty, it would already be dark!"
This Ge Zhizhong is really broken!
I have no ability, but I hate my ex.
Even serious official business contacts have to be messed up and procrastinated.
That is to say, as my ex, it is inconvenient to question him according to the rules, otherwise I have to take part in a copy, so that he can't afford to go around!
He slandered in his heart, but Sun Shaozong would not show his traces in front of Chen Jingde, he flicked his sleeves and ordered: "Okay, put those files on the desk in the inner room first, and look through them carefully when I have free time."
As he spoke, Da Ma Jindao sat down in the middle, pointed to the lower chair and said, "Deputy Chen Si, sit down and talk."
Although Chen Jingde obeyed obediently just now, he didn't dare to obey his orders now, and knelt down in front of Sun Shaozong with a thud, utterly ignoring his face, and kept shouting: "Confused by a lowly job, guilty of a lowly job! Please punish me severely, my lord!"
Generally, those who demand heavy punishments think that they will not bear the slightest responsibility.
While he was grabbing the land with his head, Sun Shaozong curled his lips silently, but then he became serious again: "Get up and talk, anyway, you are from the sixth rank, don't lose the strength of being an official."
"My lord, humble job..."
Chen Jingde straightened up slightly, and was about to reproach himself, but Sun Shaozong pointed to the lower chair.
Seeing that this attitude seemed to be very firm, Chen Jingde got up hesitantly, and got up half of his buttocks tremblingly.
"Deputy Chen Si."
As soon as the official robe was rubbed on the chair, Sun Shaozong called for his name, and he quickly jumped up again. Although he didn't kneel down again, he still bowed his body like a shrimp.
If he couldn't find a suitable candidate, Sun Shaozong would really not want to pay attention to such a guy!
But now, he can only be patient and say in an official tone: "To be honest, it's only natural for you to harbor resentment towards this official."
puff~
Before he finished speaking, Chen Jingde slipped to the ground again, and shouted like chaff: "I don't dare to be humble, I am humble..."
"Get up and listen to me!"
Sun Shaozong had no choice but to raise his voice, and after Chen Jingde got up tremblingly, he raised his voice again: "Although I have just arrived here, I have not cleared up all the clues, so I have to overwhelm this case."
"But prevarication is just prevarication. It's really difficult for you, a temple deputy, to investigate and handle such a big case alone."
"My lord's name!"
Chen Jingde knelt down for the third time, but this time he was more sincere. He heard him crying and said: "Everyone in the household department is full of masters with hands and eyes, and a low-level job is only from the sixth rank. Even if there are some clues , which one do you dare to ask?”
"Master Pian Tingwei, in order to make up for the shortfall, he kept urging, humble job... There is really no way for humble job!"
As I spoke, I squeezed out a few drops of tears.
"Get up and talk."
Sun Shaozong stepped forward at the right time, helped him up personally, and his voice became softer and softer: "It is precisely because I know that you have a reason for the incident, so I didn't care about your behavior yesterday - as long as you do your business with sincerity, this matter will be exposed."
"My lord! I am really ashamed of my humble position..."
"However, if you dare to prevaricate and perfunctory in the future, and ruin our Zuo Temple's errand, I will definitely not spare you!"
Listening to Sun Shaozong's special mention of the word "Our Zuo Temple", although Chen Jingde is not smart enough, he suddenly realized it.
So he hurriedly turned over and fell to his knees, vowing: "From now on, I will be the only one who will follow the lowly position, Sir Shaoqing, and never dare to deceive and perfunctory adults again!"
Even if the status of this dog leg is settled.
But he can't be driven, but he has to observe slowly to know.
Let's make do with the emergency first.
"it is good!"
He put up a sign of 'Apprentice' for Chen Jingde in his heart, but Sun Shaozong said 'Yes' in his mouth.
Turning around and returning to his seat, he ordered unquestionably: "Since you have said this, I won't be polite to you—you go to the prison quickly, and transfer the two corpses that floated with the boat yesterday to the office for investigation. test."
"Impressive order!"
Chen Jingde responded swiftly, then was taken aback for a moment, and then cautiously asked: "My lord, the case of Lu Gejian..."
"Confused!"
Sun Shaozong's face turned cold: "The news that the corpse has floated to Dali Temple has probably spread all over the streets and alleys. If we don't deal with it early, what face do you and I have to claim to be the top criminal names in the world?!"
Saying so, he waved his hand again: "Go down, remember to ask Wu Zuo to check it carefully, and I will check it myself later." 8)
Chapter 719 The case of the dead body on the black awning boat [Part [-]]
[Third update, continue tomorrow for the third update]
Leaving aside his identity and position, Sun Shaozong actually applauded the death of Master Daoyan's master and apprentice.
But helplessly, the owner of the "happy enmity" was instigated by the owner of the black post, and sent the corpse to Dali Temple to provoke, which made it difficult for Sun Shaozong to stay out of the matter.
As the young minister of Dali Temple, this case must be solved!
As the young minister of Dali Temple who has just taken office and has a great reputation, this case must be solved as soon as possible!
However, after sending Chen Jingde away, Sun Shaozong went into the room and briefly checked the case records transferred from Shuntian Mansion.
It turned out that the content inside was a bit messy, and there was still a lot of content that overlapped with the original information.
So Sun Shaozong immediately ordered Liu Xianglian to call a few scribes to sort out and compare these case records together, screen out all the records that are not in Dali Temple, and then sort them into categories so that they can read them when they have time.
"Second brother."
Hearing that it was these trivial errands again, Liu Xianglian couldn't help complaining: "Could it be that you forgot, little brother, I have also practiced martial arts all over my body, so I've been stuck between the copybooks all day, isn't it useless?"
Sun Shaozong rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily: "Go home and ask your mother-in-law if you would like to fight with others with knives and guns, or would you rather handle official duties honestly."
Liu Xianglian turned her mouth away: "This woman is naturally long-haired but short-sighted. Ask her...Second brother? Second brother!"
But Sun Shaozong didn't listen to his judgment at all, and went out of the official office.
Liu Xianglian chased after a few steps, seeing that she couldn't catch up to the outside, it was hard to tell, so she went back to the house resentfully.
While thinking about asking those clerks for help, he wondered suspiciously, could it be that his mother-in-law asked his sister-in-law to blow the pillow wind?
