The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

Chapter 218: I don’t dare to ask my ears

After all, the exposure of the Shengtang Interrogation Case really far exceeds that of the private investigation of the case.

   It took a few days after the trial of the adversity case. Of course, forgiving her, this sentence has spread all over the streets and has become the most popular insulting word inside and outside Beijing this spring.

   But Sun Shaozong didn't have time to pay attention to this. After the recommendation letter from Master Zhao, Yu Du Yu Shi, he never received a reply from the court, so the place for criminal justice has been vacant.

But Sun Shaozong was suffering. He didn’t talk about the errands of ruling the country and conciliating the sentence. In addition, he accumulated a lot of official business during the New Year. He was really busy, and he took a five-day break. Can't care about it.

   Just like this, I have been busy until the end of the month, and I have taken care of the affairs of the criminals.

   So Sun Shaozong didn't say anything, and immediately reported to himself for a three-day rest, ready to recharge his energy at home.

  The four words for rejuvenating energy and sharpening are really literal.

   Ruan Rong is in confinement, and Xiang Ling is pregnant for more than two months. Sun Shaozong can't touch both sides now, and can only sleep lonely in the study.

   This is exactly what the cheap eldest brother thought. Recently, he urged Rongguo Mansion to marry his daughter. A few days ago, he changed the Geng Tie, and when he saw it, he looked for a monk and Taoist priest to estimate the date of the marriage.

   but said that the twenty-ninth day of the first lunar month.

  Sun Shaozong slept three poles in the study, only to get up from the collapse, and called the little maid on duty to come in and wash.

   After everything was cleaned up, he was going to go to the backyard to tease his son.

   Who knows that just a few steps out, he caught up with someone behind him, saying that Xu Shouye and Xu Baihu from the patrol camp came to visit. Now the housekeeper Zhao is speaking with him. If he sees it, he has to make his own decision.

   Xu Shouye came to visit?

   Sun Shaozong turned his mind a few times before he suddenly got up. This is the time when Xu Shouye is visiting. Needless to say, the appointment is for the party in the same year.

   After all, the same year gatherings of the previous two years were all scheduled in February, and this year will naturally be no exception.

   Last year, there was a shit-cutter like Zhu Peng who had to rush to be the host. This year, Sun Shaozong's family dominates. According to the current practice, he is naturally the initiator.

   But Sun Shaozong has been tired of official duties recently, and is busy enjoying the family pleasure in his free time, but he can still think of such bird things?

   Now that Xu Shouye is visiting, he really reminded him.

   Thinking like this, Sun Shaozong hurriedly turned back to the front hall.

   "Brother Sun Xunyue has three happy visits, I really envy others!"

   As soon as Fang entered the door, Xu Shouye greeted him with a hearty laugh. It seems that he is also very concerned about the affairs of the Sun family. Otherwise, he should only know that Liangxi gave birth to a son and was promoted.

  Of course, it's also possible that the cheap brother drank too much cat urine and made a noise in the patrol camp.

  Sun Shaozong also laughed, knowing that this person is a straight man, so he didn't bother to be polite with him, arched his hands and said straightforwardly: "Brother Xu is here this time, I am afraid it is not just congratulations, right?"

  Who knows that Xu Shouye was taken aback for a moment, lowered his throat, and said in a deep voice, "Why, brother Sun has also heard the wind?"

   The sound of wind?

   What else can there be about this same year party?

   Besides, even if there is any news, it should be heard from the host Sun Shaozong.

   "What?"

   Sun Shaozong motioned for him to go in and take a seat, while wondering: "Couldn't Brother Xu come to me to discuss the next month's gathering in the same year?"

   "Ouch!"

   Xu Shouye patted his forehead and said annoyed: "If you don't tell me, I really forgot about it!"

   Sun Shaozong was speechless. Just now he thought he reminded himself, but now it seems that he reminded him.

   "Then Brother Xu just said, what's the matter?"

"This one……"

   Xu Shouye hesitated a little, but still said with a serious face: "Brother Sun knows, then Xu Tai has been ordered to return to Beijing to report on his work, and will arrive in Shuntian Mansion soon?"

   As mentioned in the previous article, this Xu Tai was also Sun Shaozong's first list in the same year, and he was also the second place in the top one.

   After Xu Tai moved to a civilian post, he worked as a magistrate in the southeast coast for more than a year. Later, because of his command, he severely damaged the Japanese pirates who went ashore and looted him and was promoted to the rank of the five-rank prefecture.

   Therefore, before Sun Shaozong was promoted to the middle school, this official rank could be said to be the highest in the same period.

   However, it has not been two years since Xu Tai was promoted to Zhizhou. It is obviously not a normal job to report to Beijing this time.

  Sun Shaozong asked, "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

   "Naturally it is not a good thing."

   Xu Shouye shook his head and said, "He just offended Taiwei Wang from the nine provinces, so what can I do in Beijing this time?"

   Offended Wang Ziteng?

   Although Wang Ziteng has the title of inspector in nine provinces, he can mobilize officials from the coastal provinces, but in the final analysis he controls the military power rather than the civil affairs. How can Xu Tai, a small local official, conflict with him?

   "Well, this old Xu is also full!"

Xu Shouye was half complaining and half admiring: "He actually wrote a letter a year ago, saying that Wang Taiwei’s strategy of suppressing Japanese was conservative~lightnovelpub.net~ and blindly optimistic about the situation. In the long run, it will only waste national power. It is difficult to eradicate the Japanese infestation."

  啧

   Xu Tai is so bold!

The prince now holds the military power of the nine provinces. Although there are not many serious soldiers in the southeast coast, he is still a leader among the officials of the border. It is too late for ordinary local officials to indulge. How dare to scold like him. What's wrong?

   Hearing this, Sun Shaozong also faintly guessed Xu Shouye’s intentions, so he said: "Brother Xu wants me to do my best to take care of Xu Tai one or two?"

   Xu Shouye's thoughts were broken by him, and he rubbed his hands a little embarrassedly: "I shouldn't have forced Brother Sun, but among the people that Old Xu knows, I'm afraid that only you can exert some strength."

   After a pause, he hurriedly added: "We can't control how the court decides. I just think that a man like Xu Tai shouldn't be humiliated by those villains who climb the flames!"

  Sun Shaozong naturally understands what he means. A way is good to see the king, and little ghosts are difficult to deal with. Wang Ziteng himself may not care much about this matter-even if he is really grudged, he will be self-sufficient.

   But after some villains knew about this, they had to step on Xu Tai, so as to be a step into the body.

  , for example--

   Goods like Jia Yucun!

   But even if it's just dealing with those villainous people, I'm afraid it's not a leisurely task...

  Sun Shaozong pondered carefully for a while, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Brother Xu, when Xu Tai arrives in the capital, how about you and me outside the city to welcome you?"

   Xu Shouye was overjoyed, hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "I can do what I want, I dare not ask your ears!"...
