Qu Changshou had said a few days ago that he was going to the Grand Master's Mansion. This morning, as soon as the Xiangfu's carriage entered the alley, someone had already seen it early and ran in to report.

Not long after coming, Song Mingfeng smiled and strode out in person, and came to the door to meet his nephew.

Although he was over forty years old, he still had the youthful vigor of a young man. Seeing that Qu Chang was getting off the carriage, Song Mingfeng stepped forward, and gently dragged him to his side, looking him up and down.

After finally taking a closer look, Song Mingfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Second Uncle hasn't seen you for a while, but it's okay, you look good. It seems that your illness is really getting better."

Qu Changcheng let out a "huh", but Song Mingfeng didn't let go of him, he grabbed Qu Changnegative's arm all the way through the door, and happily showed it to other people who came out, as if he had brought some spoils from a war.

Qu Changlu didn't resist, and waited patiently for Song Mingfeng's concerns to be answered one by one, then said in a low voice: "Second Uncle, I have something to tell you when I come back."

Song Mingfeng didn't show any surprise, and said: "You are not someone who likes to come to the door for nothing. When you suddenly said that you would come, I vaguely guessed it. Go to the study. Don't worry, no matter what happens, the second uncle will definitely stand by your side .”

Qu Chang negative sighed imperceptibly, and nodded.

He came earlier, and it was not yet noon. The uncle and nephew talked for a long time in Song Mingfeng's study, and then they came out.

Qu Chang negative still had that indifferent appearance, and there was never too much joy and anger on his face, but the joy in Song Mingfeng's eyebrows and eyes was gone, instead, there was a bit of restrained anger.

When everyone is almost there, at noon, a meal will start.

As a member of the Song family, Song Yan was naturally included.

He hadn't seen Qu Changzhang for some days, and now he looked at him secretly, and saw that he was as cold as ever, and thinking of Qi Hui's appearance of being trapped by love, he couldn't help but feel very complicated.

This person is like a heart made of ice. He can easily get everything that others yearn for, but he discards it like a shoe, and he doesn't know how to cherish it at all.

Can this not make people feel jealous?

What's more, Qu Changlu blocked his way.

Song Yan didn't show his face, and he was still carrying the vegetables for Qu Chang, and said with a smile: "Lantai, father specially ordered the chef in the house to clean up the banquet, all of which are your favorite food, you have been busy these days, together You should eat more."

When he mentioned this, Song Yun, the eldest son of Song's family, asked with concern: "I heard that when you were in Huiyang last time, you were ambushed by Xiqiang people. I was shocked. The person who leaked his whereabouts Who is it, and was it caught in the end?"

Song Yan originally thought that the limelight of this matter had passed, but when Song Yun brought it up again out of the blue, he felt so nervous that he almost dropped the vegetables he was holding on his chopsticks.

He pretended to lower his head to pick up the rice in a disguised manner, and listened quietly to Qu Changsheng's answer.

Qu Chang said: "This matter still needs to be investigated. The left and right traitors appeared among my guards, and some suspicious people have been screened out so far."

Song Yun said: "As long as you don't check it out for a day, you can't think that anyone around you is reliable. You should pay more attention."

Qu Chang said: "Big cousin, I understand."

Song Yi slapped the table, frowned and said: "The person who betrays the master is the most hateful, this kind of thing that eats inside and outside, should be cut alive after being caught."

Others also scolded the traitor as hateful, which made Song Yan feel extremely uncomfortable.

In order not to let people see that he looked strange, he could only smile and agree.

Song Mingfeng said slowly: "Lantai, who are the suspicious people you mentioned? Why don't you send them here and ask your cousins ​​to help you interrogate them."

Song Yi said: "That's right, if you are soft-hearted, you will definitely not be able to extract a confession by torture. Let me help you, and you can pry everything out of their mouths."

Qu Chang said: "Well... Actually, I came back here for this purpose. Xiao Duan has already found out that since I went to Huiyang, one of my guards has been inquiring about my itinerary, diet and daily life every day, and then Report this to Steward Wang."

"This purpose may be out of concern, after all, how could a steward of the Grand Master's Mansion have contacts with Xiqiang?" Qu Chang said negatively, "But I still want to bring Steward Wang back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and question him thoroughly. "

Song Yan's heart trembled, he didn't expect that Qu Changlu had found Steward Wang's head.

He quickly showed a look of surprise on his face, and said to Song Yi: "Fourth brother, isn't that the housekeeper in your yard? Could it be that you asked him to inquire about these things because you care about Lantai's safety?"

Song Mingfeng looked at his adopted son quietly.

Song Yi never thought that there would be someone in the Song family who wanted to harm Qu Changnegative, so he didn't react after Qu Changnegative finished speaking, and then he was surprised: "What, in my yard?"

He was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said: "I have never asked anyone about Lantai's whereabouts. If this is the case, there must be something wrong with Steward Wang—someone, bring him here!"

The maid beside Song Yi reported back: "Fourth young master, Steward Wang took leave seven days ago and hasn't been to the house for many days."

Song Yan said in surprise: "Fourth brother, did no one tell you about this?"

If you have the heart, you can hear it. In fact, every word of his false surprise or concern has hidden secrets, which lead people to suspect the unreasonableness of Song Yi's performance.

But Song Yi didn't know the inside story, so he didn't think much at all, and replied along the way: "Yeah, I never ask about these messy things, but I didn't expect this dog slave...Damn it, I have to find a way to find him sooner!"

Qu Chang's negative tone was subtle: "Or maybe—even if someone is found, he has already become a dead bone. However, there may be some evidence in his room and home. After all, a housekeeper who does such a thing must be given Bought it."

Unexpectedly, things would turn out like this, and everyone was extremely disturbed.

The Song family is full of important military generals in the court, and there are traitors in the Taishi's mansion, which not only harmed Qu Changcheng, but also may lead to the leakage of some important military secrets, and the consequences will be disastrous.

The second wife of the Song family, Mrs. Zhou, is Song Mingfeng's wife, who is also Song Yi's biological mother. Song Yi is not married, and has a rough personality. She usually takes care of her son's general affairs.

Unexpectedly, such a calamity as Steward Wang appeared under her nose, Zhou also frowned and said:

"Lantai, don't worry, our Song family can't tolerate people who want to harm you, and the second uncle and aunt will definitely let you decide this matter. Come on, go to Steward Wang's house to search now!"

The Song family dispatched dozens of people at once, and the search speed was very fast.

But Steward Wang had fled for many days after all, and the crowd had nothing to gain, but they brought Steward Wang's son back, saying that he had something important to report to his master.

Song Mingfeng's expression was not good from the beginning, and his words were much less than usual, so he said in a deep voice, "Let him in."

Wang Kun is in his early twenties this year. He is tall and thick, and he is usually a rascal who takes advantage of things.

Holding something in a cloth bag in his hand, he knelt down as soon as he entered the door, and said loudly: "Masters, please do justice for my father!"

Song Yi has always felt sorry for his cousin, and wished he could protect Qu Zhang in everything. As a result, not only was he murdered, but the murderer seemed to be in his own yard, he felt guilty and angry.

At this time, when he heard Wang Kun's words, he laughed out of anger, and said coldly: "Your father betrayed the Lord and absconded in fear of crime. You still have the face to seek justice here? If you have any clues, tell them quickly, dare to miss the next one." Words, I guarantee your life will not be guaranteed."

Wang Kun shrank his neck in fright from Song Yi's aura, but then thought of something, and straightened his chest out again.

He poured out the contents of the cloth pocket in his hand and said, "Okay, look at the fourth young master, do you recognize this thing?"

What he poured out were a few ingots of gold ingots, and Song Yi was about to say "nonsense, who doesn't know this", when his eyes froze suddenly.

He picked out a gold ingot with a special shape from it, and said, "This gold ingot is not from the Central Plains."

He has seen this thing.

Song Yi was once assigned to exterminate a group of cults in the mountains in the outskirts. At that time, he seized a lot of gold and silver magic weapons that they used in their daily "practice".

This "gold ingot" looks no different from ordinary ingots. In fact, special potions are used to corrode scriptures at the bottom, and the inside is not gold.

Wang Kun sneered and said: "So the Fourth Young Master dared to admit it! Or did you forget that you gave my father these golds to bribe him to secretly inquire about Young Master Biao's whereabouts?"

Song Yi never thought that he could be suspected: "It's nonsense!"

Wang Kun pouted his neck and said: "That day you sent a maid to give these gold, silver and jewels to my father, and asked him to ask the people around Young Master Biao for news. Agreed."

"I didn't expect that after the incident, he would not see anyone alive or dead, and he would be said to have betrayed the master. Fortunately, I found the evidence. You accidentally mixed this golden magic weapon into the gold ingot to reward my father. It was silenced!"

After the monster was completely wiped out, the evil weapons used were turned into blueprints and pasted all over the streets and alleys, and the common people knew what they looked like.

Wang Kun thought he had caught Song Yi's handle, so he dared to come to the door ostentatiously, and wanted to use this to extort a sum of money from the Song family.

Zhou asked her son, "Silang, what's going on?"

Song Yan also said: "Wang Kun, don't talk about it! The fourth brother has always loved Lantai the most, how could he harm him?"

After passing through his area, the matter of "Song Yi's key to Qu Chang's loss" was brought to the surface.

Wang Kun said: "If the fifth young master still doesn't believe it, then he is forcing me to make things difficult to hear! The fourth young master is my father's master, how could it be possible that he didn't know about it after leaving for several days, and besides the fourth young master, Who can take such gold by mistake..."

He blatantly accused Song Yi, but he calmed down, turned to look at Qu Changcheng, and said seriously: "Lantai, I never thought of harming you."

Song Yan looked at the two of them, his eyes darkened.

Qu Chang said: "I know, and I never thought of doubting you."

He got up and saluted Song Yi.

Song Yi asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Qu Chang said: "I just want to apologize to my cousin. I just didn't open my mouth to help you clarify. I just wanted to see who the real mastermind behind the scenes will frame and how far he can arrange it."

When Zhou saw her son being accused of being a murderer just now, she was shocked and did not believe it. He was relieved when Qu Zhang said that he did not doubt Song Yi.

At this time, she couldn't help but said, "Already know who that person is?"

This person harmed Qu Changcheng and even framed Song Yi, it was too hateful, and he must not be tolerated.

Song Mingfeng put the wine glass spinning in his hand in front of him, and said slowly beside him: "Yes, I already know."

All the reversals came suddenly and inexplicably, and Song Yan's heart that had just been put down was raised again.

He raised his head and found that Song Mingfeng was staring at himself with a very strange look when he was speaking.

Song Yandao: "Father, what's wrong?"

Song Mingfeng let out a long sigh and said, "Zhao Shun, go and invite Boss Li up."

Soon, a man dressed as a businessman walked in quickly, bowing to everyone in the room with a smile on his face.

After Song Mingfeng asked him to sit down, he signaled his servants to bring the fake gold ingot in front of him.

He asked: "Boss Li, is this what you are recycling recently?"

When Boss Li saw it, he immediately said, "That's right, that's it!"

It turned out that he was an antique dealer, and this gold ingot was obtained by accident while shopping for goods.

Later, it was discovered that it was a magic weapon. Boss Li had no choice but to think he was unlucky, and threw it in the corner of the warehouse.

Unexpectedly, the new guy in the store was so confused that he accidentally sold this thing.

Boss Li was cautious, fearing that he would be regarded as an outcast, so he quickly offered a huge reward, trying to get the things back, but was found by Qu Zhang, who brought him to the Song family.

Song Mingfeng said: "Look carefully, are you sure this gold ingot is the one you sold?"

Boss Li said affirmatively: "It's absolutely true. Please take a look, there are marks I accidentally knocked out on it. There is no way to imitate it."

Zhou said with a sigh of relief: "Since that's the case, Shiro has no suspicion at all."

They asked the housekeeper to send Boss Li out first.

Song Yi said angrily with a sullen face, "I shouldn't have been suspected! What did I do to Lantai? So who did it?"

Qu Chang said: "That's right. I can give you gold, silver and jewelry, and contact the Shangxi Qiang people. Who else is there in this family?"

Song Yan's lips trembled uncontrollably, and then he stood up suddenly.

It's not that he's sensitive, but that Qu Chang negative said these words just looking at him, and the meaning behind his words couldn't be clearer.

Song Yandao: "Lantai, what do you mean? You believe that the fourth brother will not harm you, so I am also your fifth cousin. Could it be that I did the bad things?"

He was full of anger: "Or, because I am not the biological child of this family, you all treat me as an outsider after all? If there is any bad thing, think of me first!"

It's a pity that the set of selling miserably is not very effective for the Song family, Song Yi frowned and said: "Old Wu, let's discuss the matter, don't talk to Lantai like this."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized: "You said that this matter has nothing to do with you, but your words at that time kept bringing suspicion to me. And when Lan Tai mentioned 'Steward Wang' , you immediately said that it was someone from my yard—there is more than one housekeeper surnamed Wang in our house, right?"

Song Yan understood that his words had revealed flaws in his impatience just now, and he suddenly felt panicked.

Song Mingfeng's eyes were full of disappointment: "Why did you do this?"

"It's not me! It's really not me!"

Song Yan knew that as soon as he admitted it, he would be completely screwed. Fortunately, he did a clean job on this matter, and Qu Changlong had no direct evidence.

Song Yandao: "I was just anxious to help find out the truth, so what I said was a little inappropriate. But you can't just say it's me because I didn't say a few words correctly, and there is no one else in this house to doubt, right? How can I bear such a big crime?"

He said to Zhou: "Mother, you love me the most on weekdays, don't you doubt me too?"

Of course, Mrs. Zhou didn't want to think about her adopted son that way, so she hesitated and said, "Wulang's words are also reasonable, let's investigate again."

At this time, a young servant rushed in and reported to Song Mingfeng panting, "Second, Second Master, His Royal Highness King Jing is here to visit."

The Song family had never had any friendship with King Jing. He suddenly came to the door and said that there was nothing good to do, which was scary to death.

Just as Song Mingfeng stood up, Jing Qianjiang had already strode into the door.

He didn't have the pretensions in the rumors. After meeting, he cupped his hands at Song Mingfeng first, and said with a smile: "General Song, I'm sorry to bother you. This king took the liberty of coming here today because he wanted to give a gift to the family."

Song Mingfeng felt strange, and said: "Your Highness is too polite, please take your seat—I don't know what you brought?"

Jing Qianjiang clapped his hands twice, and said with a smile, "You are a nobleman."

His guard brought a slumped man into the door, and it turned out to be Lu Yuehan.

A drop of cold sweat slid down Song Yan's forehead.

Jing Qianjiang said: "I don't seem to be too late."

He raised his chin at Lu Yuehan: "Come on, Doctor Lu, tell you about Song Yan's disclosure of Master Qu's whereabouts to Xiqiang and the fact that the two of you conspired to bring about Miss Qu's marriage."

He summed it up in one sentence, concise and concise, but the brains of others couldn't react.

Song Yi was shocked and said: "Miss Qu married, Qu Rong?"

Why is it that the unethical things are one after another, and the digging can't be finished?

Song Lin, who went out to buy rouge with Qu Rong that day, was also there, but the matter just now was too complicated, and she didn't know what to say as a little girl.

At this moment, there were finally some things that could be understood, and Song Lin said with an "ah":

"Second Uncle and Second Aunt, I ran into Fifth Brother two days ago before I went out to play with the Qu family sister, and told him about it, and then we were troubled by Nan Rong's prince outside."

She asked in disbelief, "Is it because I killed Sister Qu? Fifth brother, you did this too?"

Song Yan said: "I, I..."

Jing Qianjiang shouted quickly: "Lu Yuehan, talk!"

Lu Yuehan's body trembled, and he didn't dare to procrastinate any longer, and immediately started from the reason why he discovered Song Yan, and told everything in detail.

When he was talking, Song Yan wanted to defend himself several times, but he had nothing to say. He trembled all over, and could only watch in despair as all his fig leafs were lifted.

The more the Song family heard it, the more shocked they became.

Even though Song Yan was not their biological child, he still had the blood of the Song family on his body. Song Mingfeng and his wife took care of him for many years and never treated him badly.

Even if he eats, drinks, prostitutes, and gambles, he is ignorant and incompetent, but it is really creepy to have such a vicious heart.
