Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 432 There is no airtight wall

   From last night to now, An Yunchang has truly realized what it means to live like a year. Last night, Du Maoshen of the Dongcheng Soldier and Horse Division interrogated Suo Yongping and the killer who chased down Suo Yongping overnight, and then interrogated the person who set fire to Dongcheng.

   After working in the Ministry of Punishment for so many years, An Yunchang knew what to do at this time. He ordered someone to get a copper basin, closed the door of the study, and opened the secret compartment, and decided to immediately destroy the evidence that was hidden in the house and that was detrimental to him. Tremblingly, he took out a small wooden box containing letters from the dark compartment of the bookshelf, and tremblingly took out a key from under the bookcase to open the wooden box. Just as he was about to take out the letter and burn it, the window of the study suddenly opened. , a biting gust of wind blew in, causing his hands to shake, and the wooden box, together with the letter, fell into the brazier. An Yunchang was not in charge of the wooden box, and turned to close the window.

   But the wind was too strong, he managed to close the window, and then went back to the brazier to find that the letters in the wooden box had been burned to ashes, and the small wooden box was also set on fire. An Yunchang was not at ease, and stirred with the pen again, confirming that the letters were really turned into ashes, and he felt at ease. He returned to the backyard, discussed the countermeasures with his old wife, and then returned to the study, waiting for Dongcheng Yacha to invite him to the Yamen to answer.

  Who knew this and waited until dawn. An Yunchang walked out of the study slowly, looking at the rising sun and listening to the chirping of birds, hope gradually rose in his heart: the people from Dongcheng Yamen did not come, that is to say, those who were arrested did not confess. A chance to escape.

   Du Maoshen, the commander of Dongcheng, and Wang Tonghai, the deputy commander, were not familiar with him, but he was familiar with Liao Gang, the chief Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, and Liao Gang had a good relationship with the people of Jingzhao Mansion and his subordinate yamen. So, after walking around the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment and deliberately avoiding Meng Huizhou's several secret invitations, An Yunchang found an excuse to go to the Duanyang Building in Jingzhao Mansion, and sent someone to secretly deliver a letter to Liao Gang, inviting him to the first floor of Duanyang Building. See.

  The governor of Jingzhao is very busy, so is Shao Yin Zhao Demin, but Liao Gang is very free. In the past, someone invited him, and he arrived as soon as he invited him. Today, An Yunchang waited for an hour in Duanyang Tower, but Liao Gang was not seen. Not only Liao Gang, but the steward he sent to Dongcheng Yamen to inquire about news, only brought back a useful piece of news: Wang Tonghai did not come out after entering the Yamen last night, Du Maoshen went to Jingzhao Mansion, and Jiang Feng soon after that. He was called to Jingzhao Mansion and stayed in Jingzhao Mansion for half a day!

   After thinking about it several times, An Yunchang felt that Qiu Jing behind Jiang Feng was the initiator of the whole incident. The purpose was to find out the cause of Jiang Mian's death, to avenge Jiang Mian, and to wash away the stigma for the Jiang family. All of this has nothing to do with An Yunchang, how innocent he is in this matter!

   The injustice has a head and a debt, and Jiang Feng wants revenge, so he should go to Meng Huizhou!

   So when Meng Huizhou stepped into the private room with a stomach full of anger, An Yunchang was even more angry than him. So when he heard that Meng Huizhou asked him to go to the Dongcheng Yamen to surrender and bear all the guilt, An Yunchang was immediately angry, "Why?"

  A dog is a thing without a conscience. When it grows up and eats fat, it will not obey orders. Meng Huizhou sneered, "It's up to you to send someone to hunt down Suo Yongping, send someone to set fire to Dongshi, and send someone to bribe the prison boss to kill him!"

  An Yunchang's eyes widened, "How do you know..."

"Not only I know, but everyone who should know knows that Jingzhao Mansion has dispatched a police officer to follow you secretly, you didn't notice it?" Seeing An Yunchang's face changed, Meng Huizhou finally found the feeling of taking control of the overall situation. , continued, "The reason why Dongcheng Yamen didn't arrest you is because Lord Right Chancellor found the governor of Jingzhao and told him that today is not as good as before, Beijing must be stable, and everything has to wait for the envoys of the Twelve Kingdoms and the Six Guards. We will discuss it after the general leaves Beijing."

  An Yunchang, who has always had no opinion, was in chaos again, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

  Meng Huizhou leaned forward and said in a low voice, "There is no impermeable wall in the world, and there is a cunning and cunning Qiu Jing. Sooner or later, he will dig out the fire in the Punishment Department. You set it..."

   "It's not me!" An Yunchang jumped up, "You asked me to let it go!"

  Meng Huizhou's face sank, "Brother An, don't clamber and bite, when did I set you on fire?"

An Yunchang hurriedly said, "Long live order to thoroughly investigate the case of corrupt ink in Suzhou, Mr. Du, Ding You, you and Jiang Shilang have the final say in the punishment department. It was you who told me that the case was involved in the whole body, and we must find a way to close the case as soon as possible. When I asked you how to close the case, you said..."

   "What did I say?" Meng Huizhou poured a cup of tea calmly.

  What did Meng Huizhou say? He didn't say anything, just flipped the wick of the oil lamp! Based on the tacit understanding for many years, I immediately understood and started to prepare a collection of evidence that everyone in the Suzhou Mo corruption case had lost! An Yunchang stared at Meng Huizhou, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt, "Okay, so you're waiting for me here..."

  Meng Huizhou raised his hand and picked up the scissors. An Yunchang's expression changed in fright. He jumped up and stepped back a few steps, shouting loudly, "What are you doing, come here!"

   The guards and stewards of the An family who were lying in ambush outside immediately broke the door and protected An Yunchang. The guards of the Meng family also rushed in and stood on Meng Huizhou's side.

  Meng Huizhou did not panic, and cut off the waste lamp wick with scissors. The flame in the oil lamp became larger, and the house became brighter. Meng Huizhou raised his eyes to look at An Yunchang, and smiled slowly, "Why is Brother An so arrogant? You and I have known each other for many years, but you still don't know who I am?"

   After saying that, Meng Huizhou raised his hand and motioned for the guards behind him to leave. An Yunchang calmed down before letting his people back out. At this point, his face was already torn, and An Yunchang was no longer polite, and said coldly, "I know very well what you are. You cling to Jiang Mian and climbed all the way into the punishment department by relying on the relationship of the Jiang family. Jiang Mian and I do the hard work. You are good people everywhere. You know that Mr. Du, who is about to be promoted to the patriarch, intends to promote Jiang Mian as the minister of punishment. ~”

  An Yunchang sneered and continued, "If you say I'm incompetent, then you're capable? If you were capable, how could you be demoted by three levels without even wearing the hat of the Minister of Punishment, and you ended up like this!"

  Meng Huizhou turned the teacup without hesitation, "To this day, why does Brother An have to be brave? Do you want to break this game?"

   "Want! But..."

  An Yunchang was interrupted by Meng Huizhou before he could finish speaking, "If you want to break the game, you will leave a book and kill yourself!"

   "Why!" An Yunchang jumped up again and cried out.

   "Just because..." Meng Huizhou slowly turned the teacup a few times before he said, "You received the gold ingots and silver notes paid by the prefect of Suzhou."

  An Yunchang's pupils shrank, and then he heard Meng Huizhou continue, "I just said that there is no wall that is impermeable to the wind."
