Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!

  Chapter 844 Flower and Bird Governor

  Dangyang County, Danzhou

  The night gradually calmed down, Ji Huaizhang led the crowd to the post office of the county mansion, Sun You graciously arranged a banquet for his brother-in-law, Ji Rongheng, and the little princess.

  Bright candles were shining high in the banquet hall, and everyone looked very depressed as they looked at Mr. Inspector, whose face was cloudy and uncertain.

Thinking carefully about what the queen said today, Ji Huaizhang had mixed feelings in his heart. For the first time, he questioned his most important brother-in-law, Sun You: "Sun You, I ask you, why did you intercept the fleeing victims? Don't put pressure on the brother county?"

   "Brother-in-law, it is true."

Sun You had a bitter face: "Your Majesty has heard that many places in the north are not doing well this year. If the disaster victims are allowed to flee everywhere, it will inevitably cause turmoil. This year is the first year of His Majesty's enthronement. The famine is worrying."

   "That's true."

   Ji Huaizhang also frowned, thinking that the matter of asking the new emperor to allocate funds for disaster relief a while ago has not been resolved yet.

   After a long time, he gave instructions to the officials: "From today onwards, from the state capital to the counties, we must save money and distribute the accumulated money to the people affected by the disaster, so that they can live a stable year."

As he said that, he looked around the crowd with deep meaning: "Those nobles are no exception, let them set up porridge sheds everywhere in the city, I don't care if these aristocratic families exploit the people on weekdays, but now the queen is here in person." , if someone dares to continue to act recklessly, then don't blame this official for not showing affection."

   Obtaining his instructions, the officials all obeyed and said: "Yes, we will definitely act in accordance with the orders of Lord Inspector."

  Ji Huaizhang then turned his gaze to Ji Wanying, and asked worriedly: "Wanying, tell your uncle the truth, does your majesty really intend to use troops against me in Tanzhou?"

   "Uncle, why bother to stick to this?"

  Ji Rongheng persuaded in dissatisfaction: "The queen is now in the land of green grass. If your majesty wants to harm our Ji family, how can you put the queen in danger?"

   After a pause, he faced the crowd and said in a deep tone: "I think you all know the weight of the Queen in His Majesty's heart."

   "That's true."

  Ji Huaizhang thought and nodded: "It's just that all the murder cases are pointing to my Ji family. If I return to Beijing rashly, will His Majesty really not hold me accountable?"

   "Does uncle still want to resist the order?"

  Ji Rongheng's eyes gradually turned sharp.

  Ji Huaizhang knew his nephew's temperament, so he didn't compete with him. He pursed his lips and smiled bitterly.

   Then a young servant came in mysteriously, and said, "My lord, the governor, the car of the empress and the Tataraka mission has entered the border of Mengzhou."

  Hearing this, Ji Rongheng couldn't help being furious: "What's the intention of uncle, do you still want to monitor the Queen's actions?"

   "Rong Heng, you should know why Your Majesty has been hesitant to take action against my Ji family. It's all because I lead Tanzhou. For the safety of the whole family, I must be more cautious."

Ji Huaizhang persuaded him earnestly, and then said with a smile: "It seems that the queen is indeed unsuspecting of me in Tanzhou, you should thoroughly investigate the case of Lu Huan and Xia Yuan, and find out the real culprit behind the frame of my Ji family." , our uncle and nephew will return to Beijing immediately."

   "Although I also look forward to my uncle's return to Beijing as soon as possible, I still want to remind my uncle that the entire Ji family now relies on my uncle alone. I hope that my uncle will be more cautious and think twice before doing anything."

  Ji Wanying smiled unhurriedly and said: "Uncle should be clear that the root of the estrangement between our Ji family and the emperor's elder brother is the trilogy raised by Qinghe Sanzhou, not a few simple murders."

"How can there be any supporting trilogy, Wanying, you child, don't listen to those rumors, saying that all the trilogy that our clan raised in the past have been disbanded according to Princess Shu's wishes. In today's Tanzhou city, except for the imperial court stationed The army, all the mansions are servants who stay according to the regulations of the imperial court."

After Ji Huaizhang finished speaking in a firm tone, he got up in a hurry: "You two brothers and sisters will stay in Dangyang County. If you need anything, tell Sun You. I have to go back to Tanzhou Mansion. I have been out for almost two days. I don’t know if there is anything wrong with the flowers, plants, rare birds and beasts I raised. After all, there are not many of your aunts and aunts to reassure me. .”

After saying that, he hurried out, and when he reached the hall, he turned around worriedly and told him: "When things in Dangyang County have taken shape, you brothers and sisters, go back to your hometown in the state capital to have a look, your aunts and brothers and sisters are still thinking about you." Woolen cloth."

   After that, I rushed to the state capital without stopping in the cold wind.

Sun You looked at Ji Rongheng and Ji Wanying who felt helpless, and smiled embarrassingly: "My brother-in-law just loves his flowers, plants, rare birds and beasts, and itches when he sees them for half a day. General Rong Heng and the princess don't take offense." .”

   "How dare you."

  Ji Rongheng was not in the mood to attend any more dinner parties at this time, and urged impatiently: "Just ask the magistrate to send all the files related to Lu Huan and Xia Yuan to my room, and I want to check them immediately."

   "The general came from afar"

  Sun You originally wanted him to finish the banquet before busying himself with business, but as soon as the words were out of his mouth, Ji Rongheng stood up resolutely: "No need, business is important, so I won't delay the magistrate."

   After finishing speaking, he strode out of the lobby.

  Ji Wanying, Sun You, Sun Li and his son looked at each other in dismay, and led the maid back to her room with a helpless expression.

  Chu Nanzhi's convoy entered the boundary of Mengzhou, and when they saw a charred and abandoned site beside the official road, they couldn't help but stop the convoy.

  Although it was covered with snow, many black beams and branches were still exposed in the snow.

   "I think this is the place where Master Tingwei was killed."

   Ma Laifu stared blankly into the distance, sighing.

  Chu Nanzhi just looked at the abandoned post house silently, and then let the carriages and horses move on.

   After entering a post at the border, he ordered Li Ce to rest his troops and rest inside.

After closing the door, in front of Li Ce and Tang Weiming, Chu Nanzhi explained the plan in his heart in detail: "Sanlang, tomorrow you and the guards will guard my car and continue westward with Sang Qi. I will lead you to the west." Fu Lian night rushed to Tanzhou."

  Li Ce was stunned on the spot when he heard this: "Sister-in-law, how can this be done? My brother is already wary of Ji Shishi. If you go to Tanzhou alone and something goes wrong, how will my brother explain to him?"

   "If the situation in Tanzhou cannot be clarified as soon as possible, the city of Tanzhou will inevitably suffer a bloodbath. Let alone the suffering of innocent people at that time, it will be difficult to end the situation of internal and external troubles again."

  Chu Nanzhi didn't intend to discuss with him, and ordered forcefully: "You just need to do what I want, and **** Princess Sangqi and King Huyan back to the tribe safely."

   Then he looked at Ah Chun beside him: "From today onwards, you change into my clothes and go west with Da Sima, so that no one will notice that I am not in the accompanying team."

  Sang Qi would not let her take the risk alone, and pleaded strongly: "Since the master is determined to go to Tanzhou in person, let me go with you. With my uncle in the mission, no one will notice my whereabouts."

  Li Ce knows Sang Qi's skills, and he can feel at ease with her.

   nodded to Chu Nanzhi with earnest eyes, and then insisted: "Since my sister-in-law has made up her mind, I will obey. I will choose four guards who are more agile to go with my sister-in-law."

  Time was running out, and seeing that both of them were so persistent, Chu Nanzhi had no choice but to compromise. Anyway, Li Ce and Tang Weiming, the two core figures, were still in the team, so no one would easily notice anything.
