  Chapter 627 Checks and balances

Chu Nanzhi glanced coldly at Song Liao, who was already powerless to fight, and then reprimanded: "If Master Changshi is in awe, I should ask His Royal Highness Third to apologize to you, but you just opened your mouth as a tease Cipan slanders a child of a few years old, and threatens to resign from office every now and then, do you really think that my husband and I are so easy to be manipulated by you?"

After a moment of silence, she couldn't help but sighed heavily: "As for etiquette, all the children of this palace are taught by Chang Lao and Nie Lao. According to Song Changshi's meaning, it is because the knowledge and teaching of the two elders His etiquette is not as good as that of Lord Changshi?"

   "The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials definitely don't dare."

  Song Liao was so frightened that his legs gave way, and he knelt down.

   I really didn't expect that the princess even moved out the two great Confucian scholars.

   "I think you are very brave."

Chu Nanzhi stared and said angrily: "Song Changshi has been invoking teachers one after another since he entered the mansion. If there is anything you dare not do, I am afraid even Lord Changshi himself has forgotten. Even if you obey the Queen Mother and His Majesty's will , I came to Pingning Palace to be on duty to assist His Highness, not to let you be above His Highness."

   "The concubine is really wronged and dismissed from office."

  Song Liao was stunned by Chu Nanzhi's rebuke, and at this moment he had seen how powerful she was, and his words were not like those of an ignorant country woman.

Seeing that everyone in the room was downcast, Song Liao moved out of the queen mother again in fear: "Your official is deeply favored by the emperor. She is appreciated by the queen mother and she dare not neglect. Ever since I came to the palace, I only want to do my duty for your highness and love you." The concubine is loyal, please His Royal Highness pay close attention."

  Lin Jinxiao got a rough idea, even if the little treasures didn't follow the rules, his wife would not be inappropriate. This guy kept saying he was appreciated by the Queen Mother, and he wasn't used to him.

   Right now, he doesn't have time to argue with him about this matter, but if he is dismissed for no reason, I'm afraid it's really what he wants.

   Presumably, the reason why he moaned like this was for this trip, so that he could return to Beijing with an excuse.

   "My lord Chang Shi's loyalty is clear to me, so let's go down quickly."

  After saying this, Lin Jinxiao waved at him, and immediately became expressionless.

  Guan Erbai saw this, and quickly echoed: "Song Changshi, there have been three murders in Luyan Port today. Your Highness and Princess are very sad. Do you still want to stick to such trivial matters?"

  Song Liao touched his sore cheeks, looked at the dark faces, dared not say anything, and left with a disheveled face.

After he left, Sili Captain Kang Xiu respectfully clasped his fists with Lin Jinxiao and said, "Your Majesty also heard that His Highness was assassinated, and he was quite disturbed, so he rushed to Luyan Port without stopping. Fortunately, His Highness is fine, Your Majesty It's also reassuring."

   "Lord Lao Sili is worried."

  Lin Jinxiao invited him to his seat, ordered someone to pour tea, then deliberately looked at Chu Nanzhi, and asked in a soft voice: "Xing Taishou committed suicide in prison, what does Lord Sili think about this matter?"

   "Hmph, this guy must be worried about being punished, so he wiped his neck in panic."

  Kang Xiu didn't dare to have any doubts anymore, he patted his desk with righteous indignation, and continued: "This matter will be reported to the imperial court truthfully, and His Highness will be fair."

   "In this case, the king is here to thank Sir Sili."

  Lin Jinxiao felt as if he had been reassured, and he no longer had any scruples.

  Not to mention that Xing Huan is dead, even if he is still alive, he cannot be cleared of the charge of assassination.

  When Xu Jinzhou returns from Funing County, there will be countless crimes for him, and no one can keep him.

Kang Xiu took a sip of tea slowly, looked at the couple, and asked in confusion: "Today's facts are strange, it's just that Xing Huan's death deserves a lot of guilt, but what I don't understand is why Xiao Dingfang committed suicide too. In the army?"

   Lin Jinxiao was also very puzzled about this matter.

   It makes sense for Xing Huan to commit suicide in fear of crime, but Xiao Dingfang's death still haunts him from beginning to end.

  He always felt that his lady knew something, and also noticed some connection between Xing Huan and Xiao Dingfang.

   It's just that she refused to say, and she couldn't ask any more questions.

  Chu Nanzhi is now guessing in her heart that it was the living treasure in the yard who had tampered with Xing Huan. If it was really him, she has not yet figured out his intentions, so she dare not mention Xiao Dingfang's matter.

  This matter involves Lin Jinxiao's life experience, so there must be no commotion.

  Furthermore, Xiao Dingfang is dead, and the clues tracing back to the tax bank case and the Duanlongshan assassin may have been completely cleaned up.

  After thinking about it, she casually found a reason to perfunctory Kang Xiu: "Perhaps it is because General Xiao has been demoted so far, and has nowhere to defend himself. Maybe he chose to hate Jiuquan out of depression."

   "The concubine's deduction is very reasonable, but this matter still needs to be explained to the court."

  Kang Xiu has already realized that this matter cannot be so simple.

But at this juncture, he doesn't want to make things big. After all, it is Tang Ru, the young lord of the Tang family, who is in charge of hearing Xing Huan's case. If there is an inevitable connection between the deaths of the two, it will become more and more involved. How to end it.

Chu Nanzhi listened to his tone and planned to calm things down, which was in line with her own intentions, and then she replied firmly: "This is an explanation to the court. Some things have never been so complicated. If Mr. Sili has any questions , when Captain Zheng returns from the Beibu Gulf, you can inquire yourself."

   "No, no."

  Kang Xiu waved his hand resolutely: "Your official believes Wang Hao's inference. Since both His Royal Highness and Wang Hao think this matter is just a coincidence, Xia Guan knows it in his heart."

"very good."

Chu Nanzhi looked at him with a smile, and his eyes were full of meaningful gazes: "Master Sili has just arrived at Luyan Port, and I'm afraid he hasn't met the governor yet, and now the burden of the entire Pingning Prefecture is on him alone. , I still have to rely on Lord Sili to go and supervise a lot, and now the counties are in chaos, don't let the big governor be deceived by others, and the world will be judged by mistake."

   "The next official will bear in mind the advice of the princess."

   After saying that, Kang Xiu got up calmly, took his leave and left.

Lin Jinxiao's gaze stayed on the distant figure, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Taiwei Yin and Uncle Liuhuang have only set off for a few days, and Kang Xiu has come to Luyan Port. It's just to check Xing Huan's matter."

   "It must be that King Qinghe was blocked from entering Beijing. He came to Luyan Port to monitor your movements on behalf of the Queen Mother."

Chu Nanzhi had heard about the position of Lieutenant of Sili for a long time. Although the official rank was not high, he was the envoy appointed by the emperor, and he was always followed by a team of 1,200 officials and disciples The armed forces are all masters. They not only have the power of supervision, but also the power of arrest and punishment. It can be said that they have very great authority.

   "The next step is to be more cautious, my husband. I see that this person is neither humble nor overbearing. He only pretends to be an official in front of you and me. If he really stays in Luyan Port for a long time, Tang Ru will be even more powerful and difficult to deal with."

  Chu Nanzhi reminded with some worry.

  Lin Jinxiao smiled indifferently: "It's okay, if he stays here, there will be less obstacles for you to enter the capital, and my wife can relax, as a husband, I have my own way to deal with them."
