MTL - Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!-Chapter 831 life and death

  Chapter 831 Life and death are at stake

  Watching Ji Huaishu, Ji Cen'an and his son leave, Chu Nanzhi and Lin Jinshu heaved a sigh of relief, looked at each other and smiled, and were very satisfied with the result of the emperor's handling.

   In this way, I finally gave my ancestors an explanation.

   Thinking back to how he yelled at the little boy just now when he entered the palace, Chu Nanzhi felt a little guilty at this moment.

  He was worried about Jin Shu's safety, so why didn't he feel sad about it.

  Lin Yanjun is his father's biological sister and his biological aunt; and Ji Huaishu is his biological uncle. How could he feel better when he was repeatedly betrayed by his relatives.

  Thinking about it carefully, I seem to be estranged from him a lot now, and I have gradually forgotten that he is my husband, and I just regard him as the emperor who has power over the world.

   Walking slowly to his side, looking at his cold and lonely eyes, Chu Nanzhi apologized gently: "I blamed you today."

"You."

  Lin Jinxiao smiled stiffly. He didn't want her to be involved in the affairs of the Ji family, so he didn't want to mention what happened in Beijing recently.

Unexpectedly, she would be restless after all, so she pinched the tip of her upturned nose helplessly, and looked at Lin Jinshu, who had regained her rosy complexion by the fireplace, so it was not good to neglect her, and immediately ordered: "Now I'm afraid that the Ji Mansion is not stable, so let Jin Shu stay in the palace for a while, just in time for the two of you, aunt and sister-in-law, to spend more time with the imperial grandmother."

   "I listen to Brother Huang."

  Lin Jinshu doesn't want to stay in the wrong place now, even if the emperor has no such intention, she would rather go back to her princess mansion.

   Right now, the entire Second Household is being pushed up and down by Princess Wanying, making the whole mansion restless.

Just when she settled down and prepared to live in the palace for a while, she saw the palace gate guard on duty outside the gate rushing in hurriedly, knelt in front of the palace, and said in a panic: "Qizou Your Majesty , 800 miles urgent report, Mr. Tingwei was caught in a fire three days ago in the posthouse that entered the Qinghe Sanzhou boundary, and Mr. Tingwei was buried in the flames."

  Hearing this, several people were stunned.

   "It's unreasonable."

  Lin Jinxiao was furious: "How dare someone attack the imperial envoy I sent."

  He has a deep fear of the Ji family now, but if there is any trouble, he can think of it as the Ji family.

  Chu Nanzhi was unusually calm at this moment.

  From Xia Yuan's death to Fang Qingyue's sad news, it seemed on the surface that the Ji family was covering up something, but she always felt a little strange.

   After all, the Ji family is not a rich man. He knew that the emperor was wary of them, so he shouldn't have done such absurd things.

   All of this is more like someone is fueling the flames, deliberately provoking conflicts between the emperor and the Ji family.

  So what is the person behind this plotting?

  She thought hard for a moment, and it was rumored that the Ji family's trilogy in Qinghe Sanzhou was comparable to Qinghe cavalry. Could it be that they wanted to drive the Ji family to a dead end and lead them to rebel?

Thinking of this, she immediately asked Lin Jinshu: "Jinshu, you have been married into the Ji family for some time, and I heard that you are in charge of the Ji family's housework, and the family's annual expenses must be very thorough. ?”

Lin Jinshu knew the deep meaning in her words, and replied comprehendingly: "I did notice something unusual. The Ji family spends more than two hundred thousand taels a year to pay the salaries of servants in various manors. I think this is from the breeding department. Therefore, the father-in-law and the patriarch ordered to reduce this part of the expenses, and the trilogy that the two families raised has also been abolished."

  Chu Nanzhi nodded in thought.

   I think what this girl knows is only the numbers on the books.

Seeing that the aunt and sister-in-law were discussing about the Ji family's affairs, Lin Jinxiao dismissed the palace people, and said to the two of them without any concealment at this moment: "I heard that when my aunt was alive, she had a roster of envoys to Qinghe's major families, and when she was Xia Yuan, the governor of Yang County, died tragically at the post house just to **** the roster to the capital, has Jin Shu heard of this?"

   "I did hear that my aunt had a close relationship with the rich families in Qinghe in the past, but I never heard about the roster."

  Lin Jinshu shook his head.

   "If Xia Yuan really came to Beijing to **** the roster, then the roster must have arrived in Beijing by now."

  Chu Nanzhi said suspiciously: "In this case, we have to find out the real culprit who killed the Xia County Supervisor before we can find the roster."

   At this point, she frowned and looked at Lin Jinxiao: "I'm just worried that someone will deliberately stir up trouble and drive the Ji family to a dead end."

  Listening to these words, Lin Jinxiao gradually fell into deep thought.

  Although the Ji family is indeed a powerful and powerful family, he never felt that the Ji family was a big threat to him before. Why has his suspicion of the Ji family become more and more serious recently?

  After thinking hard for a long time, thinking about the remarks mentioned by the queen, he gradually realized that he was afraid that someone was deliberately stirring up trouble with evil intentions.

  First, someone told me that Yin Sinian and Ji Huaishu hid the property of Tang and Yang's parties, and then there was a rumor that the Ji family supported the tribes, which caused a commotion in Beijing.

  Although each of these rumors was confirmed, it also made him aware of the sinister intentions of the people behind it.

   Who is behind the scenes?

   And is this intention good or bad?

  He thought hard for a long time but couldn't figure out why.

   But the land of Qinghe had just been pacified, and he absolutely didn't want to see another disaster in the three states.

After careful consideration, he suddenly raised his head and ordered to Hai Da'a: "Decree, order the general Zhang Yu to send more people to guard the Ji mansion, and let the chief minister Li Ce not have to return to the capital, and directly command Tanzhou to deploy together with He Ying." Clear up the power of Tanzhou clansmen."

  Lin Jinshu panicked when he heard this.

   In this way, wouldn't the Ji family be driven to a dead end.

  Chu Nanzhi also hurriedly stopped Hai Da'a anxiously, and persuaded Lin Jinxiao: "Your Majesty, the empire has just returned to peace, and it really can't stand the pain of war."

  If the land of Qinghe is really as rumored, and the number of tribes supported by the various powerful forces has exceeded the army of the three states, then this battle will not be easy, not to mention that there are Rongdi people in the northwest watching.

  But this time it is not as simple as calculating Lin Tingyan. Even if Sang Kun and the Tataraka tribe are willing to help each other again, Ji Huaizhang will never become the second king of Beibin.

   "The Ji family is deeply favored by the emperor, and they will never take risks unless it is absolutely necessary. I think His Majesty and the ancestors are very clear about this, otherwise they would not marry the princesses to the Ji family."

Chu Nanzhi stared deeply at Lin Jinshu: "Just relying on Master Shangshu to return the hidden land property and disband the trilogy, I am willing to believe in the loyalty of the Ji family. Your Majesty should not send troops to Tanzhou right now, and give Ji Huaizhang the opportunity to rebel." The reason, instead, is that he should be sent to Beijing to report on his duties. In just a few months, three court officials have died. I think he should also enter the court to give an explanation to His Majesty. This is a good way to test his loyalty. If he refuses to return to Beijing , Your Majesty will only be justified in sending troops again."

  At this juncture, the emperor's sister-in-law was still helping him to speak, and Lin Jinshu's heart was moved beyond words. Thinking of the respect and protection she had given her back then, it was worth it.

  She also knelt down immediately, and begged: "I also ask the emperor to accept the queen's advice. The younger sister dares to risk her life. The Ji family has no intention of rebelling."

  Lin Jinxiao fell into deep thought again.

  Corruption and treason are two different things. After all, Ji Cen'an and Princess Shu are his best friends for many years. He couldn't bear to see the Ji family go to a dead end, and then said a word: "Okay."
