Chapter 528 Setting the Tone
Jiang Cheng was a little dazed by Shen Hao's words.
"Reveal? What do you mean?"
"My lord, don't you think that Qin Xiuyuan expressed both fear and anger in the letter?"
Jiang Cheng picked up the half of the letter and read it again. Not to mention, Shen Hao's reminder made him see some anger in the letter. Why are you angry? Considering the context before and after and Qin Xiuyuan's experience when he wrote the letter, I am afraid that this anger is also closely related to his experience.
"It can be seen. But how can you be sure that this is "revealing"? Shouldn't he write to the Criminal Ministry or us if he wants to expose? What should he write to his family to expose?"
"My lord, if you expose outsiders, you must write to us, but if you expose your own people, you must write to the pillars of your own family."
"Expose your own people?! You mean that Qin Xiuyuan felt that he was reduced to a fugitive because he was killed by his own family?"
"Actually, this is not impossible. If there is such a person, then the emotions expressed in this letter are completely reasonable."
Jiang Cheng didn't ask Shen Hao the basis for his guess, because whether he could get the contents of the letter was the key, and what needed to be considered now was how to reply to King Shou.
Of course, guesswork about the letter can be used as an aid to help with the decision.
"You put the things here with me, go back first. You can investigate the case as you like now, don't be affected by Shou Wang's actions, and I will notify you if there is any change."
"Good sir, this subordinate will leave now."
After Shen Hao left, Jiang Cheng was in no mood to rest. Sitting in the study and reading the half of the letter twice, the more I read, the more I realized that Shen Hao's judgment was accurate. Indeed, the emotion in this letter was really like the opening line of "I feel aggrieved and want to expose the scum of the family to the Patriarch". .
Jiang Cheng knew that Shen Hao was hiding something and didn't say anything. He didn't try to force Shen Hao, and he also knew that even facing him as a teacher, Shen Hao still had some concerns. It's human nature, even if you don't know how to treat your parents, let alone teachers? However, this did not affect Jiang Cheng's appreciation for Shen Hao.
He is a very sensible young man.
If Qin Xiuyuan's letter was really exposing the Qin family, what would happen? King Shou attaches so much importance to it and what direction can this letter lead the matter?
To be honest, Jiang Cheng didn't know what to do, but he could at least be sure that the civil servants would hate Xuan Qingwei's situation to death, and would like to eat its flesh.
After thinking about it, Jiang Cheng finally gave up his idea of going to Pang Ban to report overnight. Although this kind of matter is urgent, it is not "urgent", and it is indeed too late. Jiang Cheng finally planned to go to work again at dawn.
But the annoyance in his heart also kept Jiang Cheng up all night. Early the next morning, he found the Commander Yamen to wait, and Pang Ban called him in as soon as he arrived.
"Come and watch over me early in the morning, why is it so urgent?"
"My lord, Shen Hao was invited by the King of Shou yesterday to talk about some important matters, and his subordinates dare not make decisions on their own, so I want to ask your lord to check it out." The letter was presented to Pang Ban's desk.
At the same time, Jiang Cheng introduced: "Shou Wang took this out when he was talking with Shen Hao. He wanted to use the contents of this letter as an opportunity to "make a good relationship" with us Xuan Qingwei."
"Good fate? Hehe, the princes are all subjected to the emperor's art, and they believe in themselves. When did they believe in fate? Good fate? It's interesting." Pang Ban dared to tease the prince so bluntly, while Jiang Cheng only Those who can be embarrassing dare not talk to each other.
The hundreds of words were quickly read, and after putting it down, the smile on Pang Ban's face remained undiminished, and he asked, "What else can King Shou say?"
"What King Shou meant was that this letter can make Xuan Qingwei turn his back on the client in this case, and it can completely destroy the arrogance of the civil society. However, he also asked that we can use him as an example when describing the case to the outside world. "Assisting party" is written in."
"Assist? You mean you want to throw off your hat and take revenge on those civil servants?"
"Yes, my lord. How do you think you should reply?"
Pang Ban knocked on the letter on the table almost without thinking, and said with a smile, "Why don't you want the knife delivered to you?"
"But with this knife, wouldn't the relationship between the civil servants and King Shou be messed up?" Jiang Cheng also had his own concerns. The matter was decided to be handled by Pang Ban, and he had to finish what he had to say, so as not to be wronged when something went wrong and he was blamed bluntly by the superiors.
"The relationship is messed up?" Pang Ban shook his head and said, "When will the relationship between us Xuan Qingwei and the civil servants get better? Just take this case as an example, because the civil servants want to take advantage of our actions to attack His Majesty at court. The right to speak in the middle school was pulled out? They did it in the first grade of junior high school, but we can't do it in the fifteenth grade?
It's just a knife, what are you afraid of?
Furthermore. It is too simple to think that Shou Wang wants to use this knife to get involved with us. I don't know if this is his real idea or a cover for doing it. If His Majesty can suppress Yang Yansi and take away the power of the Ministry of War without evidence, who will this domineering reason with? He is right. Could it be that he could get away with the matter of King Shou by playing tricks?
But these have nothing to do with our Xuan Qingwei. He wants to act, at worst, just accompany him to act. I don't know who he can fool. "
In Pang Ban's view, Shou Wang's behavior was simply ridiculous. Is the relationship between the factions, the relationship between the major forces a trifling matter? If you want to pinch your nose to coax your eyes, it's just a child's play, it's useless. Or, did King Shou just want to preserve his reputation? For face?
Pang Ban thinks the latter guess is the most likely.
Pang Ban continued: "Since it was Shen Hao who got in touch with King Shou, let him continue to get in touch. There is no need to engage in any sneaky tricks. Since you want to form a "good relationship" with us, then we should do it openly. Let's see if King Shou has the guts to get close to my fire, Xuan Qingwei.
In addition, you tell Shen Hao that after I get the item, I don't care what the so-called "handle" is, I just ask that the next member of the Qin family not to stay, but to kill them all. It doesn't matter if the dossier is a little flawed, people must die clean. Not everyone can pour dirty water on us Xuan Qingwei, even a mere right servant takes himself too seriously. "
Speaking of these Pangban's tone was cold, and his expression was murderous.
Mere right servant? This may only be so worthless in Pang Ban's eyes.
When Jiang Cheng heard that he handed over his hand, it should be the case, which was similar to what he expected before he came. The Qin family is definitely doomed, unless His Majesty comes forward to take care of it, otherwise no one can save it. He has confidence in his protégé. When it comes to handling cases, he is an extremely powerful master both positive and negative, and he will never let the Qin family escape.
The only thing that was slightly surprising was Pang Ban's attitude towards King Shou, who seemed to be really not optimistic at all.
