Chapter 269: He Couldn’t Let Go
Qin Tian Supervisor counted out the days, still a year and a half later, probably because the time is still early, Zhao Su felt that the engagement is not much different, dowry and what not in a hurry, slowly prepare, no atmosphere, and no one like the novels written, the palace panicked to send a Sister to control her manners and demeanor. Very comfortable. Thus also still busy with their own things.
On this day, after hearing that the Da Lisi had teamed up with several of the Shuntian Prefecture’s top constables to investigate the Wei Yuan Marquis’ theft case, she was thinking of going to all the major yamen to get some news, when Hua Qianrong came in and said, “Miss, Luo Yi is asking for an audience.”
Zhao Su looked down at the entrance to the government office, not realizing that he would dare to come here, so he waved his hand and said, “Let him come in. I’ll wait for him here.”
After Hua Qianrong went out, she paced under the corridor, turning around a moment later, she saw someone coming from the back, subconsciously giving way, she saw that it was actually He Zong, she paused then smiled and said, “Lord He, it’s you. Why did you come to the Ministry of Rites? You haven’t figured out that you’re going to pass a petition for me, have you?”
He Zong subconsciously wanted to glare at her, but when he thought that she was already the Empress-to-be, he retracted and looked at her askance, “You’re thinking beautifully!”
Zhao Su is not angry, he said: “You see, I look quite beautiful, so it’s normal to think beautifully!”
He Zong could do nothing to help her. Just like tofu falling into a pile of ashes, he could not blow or hit her. Face to go, but then stopped and looked at her and said: “Why don’t you ask Mr. Zhang Shangshu to hand in the folders?”
Zhao Su but smiled and did not say anything. How would she go to Zhang Yu? For one thing, this kind of thing is a trouble, for another, He Zong is an old man, stubborn, he is much more persuasive than Zhang Yu. It’s appropriate to let the old man do it. She will not go against her own people.
He Zong grunted: “You’re only so good!”
Zhao Su thought: “Do you have something important to do here?”
He Zong lifted a scroll in his hand, “I’m looking for Minister Zhang. You can show me the way.”
Zhao Su said, “I’m the Empress-to-be, you’re asking me to show you the way?”
He Zong got angry again and raised his hand, “You still know that you are the Empress-to-be? Why don’t you have some seriousness?”
This hand raised touched the corridor column, the scrolls fell to the ground, in an arc lying on the ground.
“The Da Lisi’s dossier? …… Weiyuan Houfu?”
Zhao Su sharp eyes saw the words on the cover, bent down to pick it up.
“Don’t look blindly.” He Zong snatched the dossier back again.
Even though his hands were fast, Zhao Su still saw a few lines inside, which was the transcript of the missing case of the Marquis of Wei Yuan.
“The Da Lisi’s case file transcript, how could it be in Lord He’s hand? And why are you taking this to Lord Zhang?” Regardless of whether it was the Ministry of Public Works or the Ministry of Rites, it was clear that neither of them had anything to do with this matter of the Weiyuan Marquis’ residence.
“Because Lord Zhang will want to know.”
After saying that, He Zong gave her a deep look before rolling the dossier and leaving.
Zhang Yu would want to know about the case of Wei Yuan Marquis?
Zhao Su doesn’t understand what this means. In her eyes, Zhang Yu has always been a person with a clear conscience, never reaching out for anything outside of his identity, why is he breaking his fast? Or is there something else involved in this matter of the Marquis of Wei Yuan?
She shrugged her shoulders in the direction of He Zong’s departure, and turned around to see Hua Wanyong guiding Luo Yi from that side room. This fifteen year old young man was in a hurry, as if he was afraid that a slow step would cause him to miss something. Seeing Zhao Su under the corridor, his eyes bloomed brightly and he shouted, “Sister Xiao Zhen, it’s bad!”
“Shun Tianfu found you?”
“No! That Duan Shu, today asked the emperor to allow the Marquis of Wei Yuan to come to the capital to assist in this case, the emperor agreed! Just now, people from the Marquis of Wei Yuan’s residence have already rushed to Guangxi!”
If the Marquis of Wei Yuan comes back, then this matter will naturally have to have a result. Luo Yi is naturally anxious.
Zhao Su did not think just a few days, things have developed to this point, this is digging three feet to find that the theft of people can not mean?
“What to do? I’m sure to be found out, I’m sure to be killed by my father!” Luo Yi was so anxious that he was about to cry out.
Zhao Su glanced across at him, “If your father had beaten you a few more times before, you wouldn’t have been able to do this!”
After saying this, he didn’t bother to look at him anymore. Recalling that He Zong took the case file to Zhang Yu earlier, he wondered how this case could have involved even the ministers who were not involved in the case. This Princess’s charm is so great, this is almost catching up with Mary Sue Empress Dowager!
She said: “What are you busy these days?”
“…… not busy.”
“Not busy to do something serious, Wei Yuan Hou to have news, surely the first is the Hou side of the news, Duan Shu now does not live in Wei Yuan Hou? You go to that outside to keep an eye on some, something to tell me.”
“How can I find you?”
“To the government office is also good, on the marquis to find small flowers is also good.”
“Okay.”
Luo Yi took the pill, striding away.
Zhao Su sat down for a while, want to wait for Fang Qingxue back, see how he dealt with Sun Xiulan that matter, probe to see that he has not returned, dusted off his robe and got up to go to the palace.
Passed by the Qianqing Palace, there are ministers, she did not go in, directly to the Ci Ning Palace.
Empress Lu’s color is not very good, always pick up the water tender face, looking a little haggard, see Zhao Su to come, the homemade canister of masks to her hands, let her take back. Zhao Su in the way of face took, and then said: “Empress Dowager, Wei Yuan Marquis this matter, seems to be quite a big fuss. Did the Emperor really promise to let the Weiyuan Marquis come back?”
Empress Dowager Lu gave a hmm.
Zhao Su added, “Isn’t the Marquis of Wei Yuan a great general on the border? How can he go away so easily?”
“It’s not exactly easy.” Empress Dowager Lu said, “The eldest princess did not leave much behind, she is a rare good woman in these days, up to the country, the world, down to the family and children. It is our dynasty, there are also many people admire her from the heart. When she was in the battlefield in the world, in order to her relics, in reason should make an exception.”
Zhao Su heard this and murmured, “No wonder even Minister Zhang is concerned about this.”
Empress Lu looked at her, “Zhang Yu?”
“Yes. Just now, He Zong took the Da Lisi’s case file transcripts and went to Zhang Shangshu’s place, looking at the appearance it should have been transferred from the cabinet.”
Empress Lu shifted her eyes to look out the window, gaze deep condensation: “He still can’t let go in the end.”
“What?” Zhao Su did not understand.
“Nothing.” Empress Dowager Lu stopped talking and said, “I heard that you and the Emperor happened to run into this matter that night, so if you have the time, you can also help look for clues.”
Zhao Su nodded and looked at her again, “If you can’t find it, what should I do?”
Empress Dowager Lu pursed her lips slightly and said in the middle of the day, “It’s best to find it.”
The serious Empress Dowager Lu made Zhao Su not dare to gag like usual. And today she also looks a little spiritless, and the words at the end are more like still have a deep meaning.
Zhao Su walked out of the Donghua Gate, stood under the gate to take a look at the bustling crowds in the distance, and said, “His Majesty has proposed to make me the Empress until now, there has been a month, right?”
Hua Huanyong thought for a moment, “Thirty-two days.”
Zhao Su nodded, “The people who should know this news should all know it as well.”
