Chapter 530 They are all mine
The official in charge of this case happened to not be from the Lin Mansion, so it was a bit difficult to handle and required some thinking.
The person in charge of this case is a seventh-grade magistrate. Even though he is a young official, he is very upright in his work and does not mince words at all. He is what is usually called a straight-tempered person. He is almost seventy years old. He is a seventh-grade petty official. Because he does not try to curry favor with other officials, he believes that the truth will never change.
Such people can be said to be the most upright, and they are the kind who will do good to the people wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, Prime Minister Lin covers everything above the court, so such people rarely get ahead.
It is very difficult for this kind of person to let him go a little bit, and Zi Han will have to work hard for this.
The location is not in Linyue City, but in the small town next to it, Suiyuan City.
The city of Tuiyuan was prosperous under the governance of the seventh-grade official, Mr. Tian. There were very few casualties or unjust cases, but recently there happened to be a tragedy in which the whole family was wiped out.
And this matter was done by the servants of the Lin Mansion.
According to what Prime Minister Lin said, the family that was wiped out was originally the location of an underground bank in the Lin Mansion. However, someone suddenly reported the matter of the underground bank to the government, and the government sent local officials to investigate the matter thoroughly, and The whole family was arrested and prepared for torture.
The Lin Mansion was afraid that the family would confess them, so they sent people to kill them on the way.
This matter was handed over to a servant of the Lin Mansion. This servant's skills were pretty good. He even brought a few brothers on the road to level those people, but he accidentally lost his waist when leaving. There is a brand in the room, that brand is unique to the people of the Lin family, and Zihan went there this time to take out that brand.
And her Qinggong was not very good, so last night she asked Wanyan Juemo to come out with her.
This time when Zihan arrived at the gate of Suiyuan City, he saw Wanyan Juemo dressed in men's clothing standing not far away.
When Zi Han saw Wanyan Juemo, her eyes flashed with some surprise, "Your Highness is very handsome." Wanyan Juemo wore very gorgeous men's clothing, which was not as simple and elegant as Zi Han's. Her sleeves The edges are all inlaid and outlined with lines, and the lines are extremely perfect, making people feel like a noble prince at first glance.
Moreover, she added some modifications to her face to cover up her feminine features. The folding fan in her hand gave her a rather cold and stern look.
Wanyan Juemo ignored Zi Han's words and glanced at Zi Han lightly, "You are so slow."
"Come into the city quickly. I'll delay the official later, and you can sneak in and steal." Zi Han did not argue with Wanyan Juemo, because she was indeed quite slow, and it was almost noon now.
Although Tuiyuan City is next door to Linyue City, it is still a long way away. When he went out, he was told by Lin Shu that he must not let the government take out the evidence. This time, I heard that the rigid official was afraid that the news would be leaked, so he specially sent the evidence to the city. Hide the token in your room, making it difficult for others to steal it.
The Lin Mansion originally wanted Zi Han to outwit the official, but did not ask her to steal it.
It's just that even though Zihan has all kinds of abilities, how can she convince such a rigid old man in a short time? The fastest way is to steal.
This old man Tian is worthy of being an upright official. Even his residence is the simplest. When this old man saw Zi Han, he was a little surprised in his eyes. He was stunned for a while before he said uncertainly: "Your Excellency is the newly appointed patrol officer." Ambassador? ”
A seventh-grade official is not qualified to attend the morning court. He does not interact with people in the Lin Mansion on weekdays, so he does not know Zihan at all. This time, he only remembered such a high-ranking figure after listening to discussions among his subordinates.
In fact, he was mainly surprised by Zi Han's appearance. He heard that Master Zi had a handsome face, and at first glance, he looked similar.
Zihan nodded, took out the token from his waist and showed it to the old man, and said with a smile: "Master Tian, this time I was ordered to take a look at the underground bank case."
Old Man Tian's eyes flashed, and he glanced at Zi Han, his expression became a little cold, "Oh, that's it, then Mr. Zi, please come with me."
This old man may be really old. His back is a little rickety at the moment, and the wrinkles on his face are also messy. It's just the energy on his body that makes him look different from ordinary old men.
Wanyan Juemo was not with Zihan. This time she checked the terrain around Tian Mansion. Originally, Tian Mansion was relatively simple, and compared to Lin Mansion, it was much different. She didn't spend much effort to get around. Went to Tianfu.
"Master Tian, is there any progress in this case?" Zi Han asked.
Old Man Tian stared straight at Zi Han, stretched out his hand to smooth his gray beard, and said slowly: "There is progress, but for some reasons, I need to report it to the court, so I asked Mr. Zi to go back and tell Prime Minister Lin that this case is directly It will be handled by the Emperor.”
Zi Han raised her eyebrows, but she felt a little funny in her heart. This old man was really straighter than she thought, and he didn't bend at all. When he told her this directly, she really admired him for being able to live for such a long time.
Moreover, this old man obviously knew that he was from the Lin family, but he insisted on explaining it to himself in this way, which was considered bold. It was a miracle that the Lin Mansion didn't kill him.
In fact, it's not that the Lin Mansion didn't kill him, it's just that the Lin Mansion had nothing to do with the old man, and because his official position was too small, the Lin Mansion didn't think of him at all.
Zi Han lowered his eyes and sipped tea, his voice was a little gentle, he stood up and flicked his sleeves, saying: "After seeing Mr. Tian, do you feel confident?"
"Of course." Old Man Tian followed Zi Han with his eyes, looking like he wanted to see through Zi Han.
"Haha." Zi Han chuckled, his voice was a little flat, and he looked back at Old Man Tian and said, "I wonder what Mr. Tian has to say about the current situation in the court?"
Zi Han wanted to test the old man's tone and determine whether he was taking sides.
"What do you think?" Old Man Tian sneered as if he had heard something funny and said disdainfully: "I, Tian Zhongyi, am just a seventh-grade local official. What does the situation in the court have to do with me? No matter who is in charge of it. I just need to manage my city well, but unlike you, Master Zi, you are a person with great ambitions!" The irony in these words is very obvious.
Zi Han was not angry, and his tone remained calm, "But Mr. Tian, you have to know that this world is like this. No matter you think it or not, it still exists. You alone are always useless."
Zihan's words are very realistic and refer to the current situation of society. No matter you want it or not, you cannot change the world.
Old man Tian Zhongyi looked at Zihan with some interest at the moment, but he was still quite disdainful and said: "I don't care about anything else, as long as I am myself, I have a clear conscience!"
After saying that, he glanced at Zihan and waved his sleeves, "Okay, I would like to ask Mr. Zi to go back and inform Prime Minister Lin that I have something to do today. Come and see the guests off!"
Zi Han glanced at the message Wanyan Juemo gave her from the corner of her eye, nodded and walked out of Tian Mansion.
"You are really quick with your hands and feet. I haven't even spoken to that old man for a few words yet." Zi Han took the token from Wanyan Juemo's hand and chuckled.
"The old man may be old, so he put the token under the pillow. I found it without much effort." Wanyan Juemo's tone was a little strange. She originally thought that the old man would create a mechanism or something, but she didn't expect it. It was a bit unexpected to hide it so easily.
Zi Han couldn't help laughing when he heard this, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "This old man Tian is a rare honest official. He is stubborn, but he is a good person. Unfortunately, he is too upright and refuses to make friends with others. He is nearly seventy years old. He is just a seventh-grade local official. After you bring down the Lin Mansion, you might consider mentioning this person to your father.”
Wanyan Juemo nodded, glanced at Zi Han, and looked a little suspicious, "Aren't you afraid that the Lin Mansion will drag you into trouble and say you are from their side? What are you doing for the Lin Mansion now? , but they all have to be beheaded.”
Zi Han paused in his steps, raised his eyebrows, and said in a playful tone, "Am I not acting as a spy for you? I believe that when the time comes, Your Highness, the Princess, you will save my life."
The title "Her Royal Highness the Princess" came again. Wanyan Juemo frowned unconsciously, her expression darkened, and ultimately she did not answer Zi Han's words.
Seeing that Wanyan Jue was silent, Zi Han thought she had acquiesced. He lowered his eyes and looked at the token in his hand, with a somewhat inexplicable look on his face. He said calmly: "Your Highness, the eldest princess, is so skilled. You can come and go freely even with the guards in the Lin Mansion." "Wei Chen is really impressed. It's just that the Lin Mansion is such a big place, but because of its reputation, why doesn't it ask experts to protect the house for him?" If there are any martial arts masters who want to enter the Lin Mansion to kill people, just these little guys? The guards are definitely not enough to fight.
There was silence for a long time, and Wanyan Juemo did not answer Zihan. He quickly walked forward and walked into a restaurant.
Zi Han followed Wanyan Juemo with a strange look on his face. Is this woman hungry and going to eat?
However, as soon as she entered, she felt something was wrong. Wanyan Juemo was walking in front like a familiar person. The servants ignored her and allowed her to walk inside, her figure getting deeper and deeper inside.
In the end, we ended up in a cellar.
Zi Han had a strange expression, looking at Wanyan Juemo in silence.
Wanyan Juemo opened the door to the cellar, and a long staircase appeared. She walked down, and Zi Han followed her down.
Wanyan Juemo then spoke, "Who told you that the Lin Mansion didn't ask for a nursing home?"
kindness? Zihan's eyes flashed, "Did the Lin Mansion invite a nursing home?"
"Not only did we invite the nursing home, but there were more than one, ten of them, waiting in various places in the Lin Mansion. There were two people watching around your room." Wanyan Juemo's tone was very calm, but Zihan couldn't help but make Zihan gasp. Take a breath.
With his eyes widened, he looked at Wanyan Juemo in disbelief, "Then those people saw me going out with you at night and you coming to my room at night."
