The proposal of the firm is indeed very good. In the future, Jiang Ziyan's business will definitely grow bigger and bigger. All these can be included in the firm, and they will be collectively called Jiangji firm.

In addition to the name, there should also be an iconic pattern, so that no matter which Jiangji firm you go to in the world, you will have a place to stay.

Jiang Ziyan felt that Zhou Xing's proposal was worth adopting, so he specially wrote a letter to him, asking him to write a detailed plan when he had time to plan the construction of their firm.

Business dealings are business matters, and Jiang Ziyan usually handles them by himself and rarely talks to others.

As for Lin Zhao, all he is involved in is the officialdom, and he can at most analyze the superficial aspects. Apart from giving some suggestions on some constructions, he can't help much.

Lin Zhao has been the minister of the Ministry of Industry for more than four months. Now it is December, the weather is very cold, and most of the cement road construction projects have been completed.

The emperor was very satisfied with Lin Zhao, and ordered the entire Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Households, and other departments to cooperate fully and start building the Grand Canal.

The Grand Canal starts from Nanhe in the south, ends in Qingzhou in the north, and traverses the entire territory of the Wei Dynasty. It is a very huge project to build it, and there is no rush.

Jiang Ziyan and Lin Zhao were both most concerned about the case of the Lieyang Army.

I learned from Dr. Xu that they have been investigating the case all the way until now, and there are many shadows of Song Jie behind the scenes. At first, the two of them couldn't believe it. After a while, they slowly began to think about Song Jie's purpose. .

After the imperial court that day, Lin Zhao did not go back, but waited at the gate of the palace for a while.

Song Jie was left by the emperor to give orders, and when he came out, all the officials had left.

When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Song Jie wanted to get on the carriage first, but when he turned his head and saw another carriage parked beside him, he recognized at a glance that it was the carriage of Prince Rong's Mansion.

Song Jie's footsteps stopped, and the leg that was about to be lifted back up.

At this moment, a voice came out from the carriage, "Master Song, this son has admired Mr. Song for a long time. I wonder if Mr. Song will show you some face and let me tell you something?"

Song Jie glanced at the people in the carriage, and told his driver: "Go back first." Then he walked towards another carriage.

At the beginning, Lin Zhao only guessed that Song Jie was behind the scenes, but now that he saw Song Jie walking towards him, he knew that what Dr. Xu said was true, and it was Song Jie who was behind the scenes to help them. investigation.

The carriage of Prince Rong's Mansion is big and spacious, much better than that of Song Jie.

After Song Jie got into the carriage, he briefly saluted Lin Zhao, and said in the same cold manner, "Your Majesty."

Lin Zhao sat across from him, and this was the first time he had looked at the director of the Criminal Prosecution Department up close.

Song Jie had a scar on the tip of his eyebrows, but his eyebrows were so long that the scar was not very obvious.The whole person gives people a feeling of cold loneliness, like icy balls in a world of ice and snow.

The outside rumors that he is ruthless, cruel and impermanent also have some basis. After all, Lin Zhao can feel that he has a strong killing spirit.

The carriage moved smoothly, heading towards the Huixin Building.

This Huixin building is Jiang Ziyan's newly opened property. The decoration design there is similar to Linzhou's Banquet Jiangnan, and the recipes of many dishes are the same.

The most important thing is the private room upstairs. I don't know what material it is made of, and the sound insulation is very good.It has only been open for a month, and the private rooms are fully booked every day, and many adults are willing to come here to discuss things.

Lin Zhao made an appointment today at the Huixin Building.

Upstairs in the VIP room, Lin Zhao and Song Jie were sitting opposite each other. The shopkeeper knew the relationship between Lin Zhao and the owner, so he specially prepared food and wine for them in advance, and served them when they arrived.

After all the food and wine were served, the waiter said: "Guests take it easy." Then he went out and closed the door, and went down to the lobby on the first floor to greet other guests.

Song Jie has a straightforward personality, and he speaks straight to the point. When the food was served, he said before he took a bite, "If you have anything to say, please speak directly. I have important matters to attend to later."

Song Jie seemed to know what Lin Zhao would ask him today.

"Since Mr. Song is so straightforward, then I will directly ask, what is the purpose of all this that you let Dr. Xu do behind the scenes? Or which side are you on?"

Song Jie poured himself a glass of wine and said, "My lord, I also came from the army. Do you understand that?"

His background in the army shows that he has stayed in the army. He used to be a soldier or a soldier.

He was also heartbroken at the tragic end of the Lieyang Army.

Lin Zhao asked the biggest question in his heart, "Then what is the relationship between you and Marquis Wu'an? Why did you help him kill that teacher?"

Song Jie was silent, and said again: "I owe him a favor. At the beginning, he only said to help him kill a person, but he didn't say the reason."

The implication is that he doesn't know.

He didn't know that the person Wu'an Hou asked him to kill was the one who forged the letter in the Lieyang Army case.

"Everything I do now, you can also understand that I am atoning for the [-] dead souls."

"Do you know something else?" Lin Zhao keenly felt that Song Jie knew something else.

After all, he is very good at collecting intelligence, and it is not surprising that he knows a lot of things.

Just as Song Jie was about to say something, a figure suddenly flashed by the door.

Lin Zhao looked at the direction of his eyes and noticed someone at the door just now.

The wall has ears.

Song Jie didn't answer him.

Seeing that there was finally no one around, Lin Zhao asked again in a very low voice: "Wu Anhou is really the mastermind behind this incident? It is impossible for him to have no helpers in such a huge situation."

Song Jie secretly sighed in his heart that this son of the Rong Palace is indeed as smart and intelligent as rumored, and he can see suspicious points that others have not noticed.

Song Jie nodded, "You guessed it right, there is indeed a big man behind the scenes who is turning the clouds upside down and messing up the situation. I only found out some clues not long ago."

Lin Zhao hurriedly asked, "Who is it?"

Song Jie didn't make a sound, but his lips moved, and he spit out two words soundlessly.

Although Lin Zhao is not very proficient in lip language, these two words are simple, and he recognized them at a glance.

Those two words that Song Jie said were the queen mother.

Lin Zhao's pupils shrank sharply, he had never expected that things would turn out like this.

Could it be that Song Jie was lying to him?

"I didn't lie to you, this is the latest news from my intelligence organization."

Song Jie drank a glass of wine quietly, his whole body shrouded in loneliness. From Lin Zhao's point of view, this person was not as vicious and violent as the rumors said.

"So this matter was actually planned by that person, and got the late emperor's acquiescence?"

"As far as the evidence I have so far, it is true."

"Does Master Song have any good suggestions for overturning the case?"

Song Jie was surprised that this noble son of the Rong Palace would ask him what advice he had, and his always indifferent heart fluctuated a little.

He said: "For this matter, we need to find someone who can speak in the court to make a report and ask the emperor to retry the case."

"I also know this, but if the reversal of the case is not guaranteed, then there will be no more chances in the future. Besides, if you want to bring down the queen mother, you must borrow the help of the emperor. So when the time comes, you only need to propose for Lie Yang When the army overturned the case, it mentioned something about the queen mother's involvement in it, the emperor will definitely order a thorough investigation."

The current queen mother is not the emperor's biological mother. After the emperor took power, there have always been two forces in the court, one of which is to obey the orders of the queen mother.

So as long as they have enough evidence in this matter and present the evidence to the emperor, the emperor will definitely seize this opportunity to bring down the queen mother.

"Things back then should have been done very cleanly, and there must be no relevant information from the Empress Dowager," Lin Zhao said.

At this time Song Jie gave a suggestion, "You can start with the eldest princess."

The eldest princess was born to the empress dowager, although she used those shady means to send Wei Qi to Ximenguan before, but then how did she meet the Lieyang army by such a coincidence, and she was able to successfully plant it to the Lieyang army?

Thinking about it carefully, maybe the Queen Mother knew the thoughts and methods of the eldest princess long ago, and used her to successfully blame the Lieyang army, and then arranged a series of things after that.

"Does the Queen Mother have any trouble with the Lieyang Army? Why put them to death?" Lin Zhao couldn't figure it out.

Song Jie said: "Because the commander-in-chief of the Lieyang Army, He Lanting, is a royalist who obeys the emperor's orders."

With him here, the entire Lieyang army belongs to the emperor, which is equivalent to being firmly in the hands of the emperor, which is a very big threat to the queen mother.

"Feng Yi said that when they were about to return to Beijing for trial, they encountered Liang Guo attacking the city. Does Mr. Song think this is a coincidence?"

"How can there be such a coincidence in the world? It's just a deliberate means."

"It turns out that someone really colluded with the enemy country back then, but this person was not He Lanting, but the Queen Mother who is in charge of the entire harem now?"

Lin Zhao did not expect that the person behind this was actually the Queen Mother, who abandoned the entire Lieyang Army for her own selfish desires.

Marquis Wu'an and the eldest princess are just pawns being used. The person who is really manipulating the overall situation behind the scenes is the Queen Mother.

After this conversation, Lin Zhao's impression of Song Jie changed greatly. Before leaving, he said to Song Jie, "Master Song, thank you."

Song Jie nodded, gestured, and then went back.

After Lin Zhao came out of the Huixin Tower, he returned to the palace. He told the old prince Rong and Feng Ke about his conversation with Song Jie.

After hearing this, the old prince Rong was very angry. He didn't expect that the mastermind behind this incident was actually the Queen Mother!

Feng Ke was much more sensible. He asked, "Do we have any evidence to prove that the Empress Dowager ordered this incident?"

Jiang Ziyan thought for a while, then shook his head, "No, the evidence we checked earlier was all against the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion, but now even the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion is under the Empress Dowager's scheme, so we may not be able to determine with so much evidence before. The Empress Dowager's crimes can bring down the Marquis of Wu'an at most."
