Chapter 660: Fifty-nine Ambush

Views:

Speaking of the Xu family, Yang Bo's expression became more serious. He said with some concern and motioned him to sit down: "Why, did you hear some rumors?"

He knew Sun Yongning's character. He was not the kind of person who would do things without a purpose. Since he could say that, then the matter must be serious. Yang Bo raised his eyebrows. He was also very fed up with the Xu family's recent behavior. Xu Shun was really going too far.

Sun Yongning sat across from him excitedly: "Yuan Fu, you must also know that the Qi family..."

Yang Bo naturally knew that as the prime minister who was favored and relied upon by the deposed emperor, he had also dealt with Prince Zhennan. However, Prince Zhennan later offended the deposed emperor too badly, and Empress Li instigated the deposed emperor to dismember Prince Zhennan's son into pieces and kill all the people in Prince Zhennan's palace.

By the time he found out, it was too late to stop it. Queen Li's brother led his troops to Prince Zhennan's Mansion, surrounded it, and wiped out the entire family overnight.

It was also because of this incident that the people of the capital, from top to bottom, were extremely disappointed with the deposed emperor. They believed that he was indeed incompetent and no longer fit to be a wise ruler, and they all began to look for ways out. Empress Li was also called the evil queen from then on.

He hummed, thinking of this matter was like remembering the bloody scenes of the past. He frowned uncomfortably, looked up at Sun Yongning and asked, "How is the Qi family?"

The Qi family has been law-abiding for so many years. The adopted son from the side branch is very obedient, afraid that others will remember him. He doesn't even have a nominal position and stays at home all day long. When people in the capital talk about the nobles, they almost forget about this person.

"No, I'm not talking about the current Zhennan Palace, but the previous Zhennan Prince..." Sun Yongning leaned towards him and quickly told him the whole story. Seeing Yang Bo looking up at him, he nodded affirmatively at Yang Bo: "Yuan Fu, it's true, I can guarantee it. Now, the prosecutor who investigated the case is almost ruined by the Xu family, so he came to me for help..."

Yang Bo made a prompt decision: "I want to meet him in person."

He only believed what he saw with his own eyes.

Sun Yongning agreed quickly and hurried to make arrangements. That evening, Yang Bo met Zhang Tui Guan at the home of Old Master Yang Er in Chongdefang.

The Prime Minister of the country came in person. Tui Guan Zhang was a little overwhelmed for a moment. He couldn't believe that he was really like what the girl said. He met Lord Sun so easily, and then met the Prime Minister through him.

Yang Bo smiled slightly, not caring about the young man's misbehavior. He coughed lightly and asked directly, "Tell me, what happened? How did it get involved with the Qi family?"

Zhang Tuiguan quickly recovered from his excitement. He was now filled with resentment towards the Xu family. Since it had come to this point, there was no reason to turn back. He simply told the whole story and added at the end: "Whose body it was has become a mystery now, but there is definitely a problem. Otherwise, why would the Xu family use all means to stop me from investigating?"

Yang Bo tapped his fingers on the table, looking at the steam rising from the teacup, and spoke again after a long while: "You just said that Aunt Shen from Shenjia Village met Grandma Xu and called her Miss Li?"

Li and Qi are very different, how could they be mistaken

And if Grandma Xu’s surname is not Qi, then what about Tong Tai’s wife Qi Yunxi

He narrowed his eyes, raised his eyebrows and looked at Sun Yongning, finally understanding why Sun Yongning was so excited.

Yes, if it is really proved that there is something unusual about the identities of the Qi aunt and nephew, then the Xu family will definitely be involved and will suffer a heavy blow.

Hiding your identity...

Qi Yunxi saved the Queen Mother and stayed with her for many years. If she concealed her background, what was her purpose

Just thinking about it, this matter will implicate countless people!

Sun Yongning's judgment was correct. This matter was indeed extremely important and must not be left unresolved!

Yang Bo stroked his beard, thought for a moment, and then asked Zhang Tuiguan: "You said before that there were a few things you had to tell me in private. What were they?"

"Aunt Shen said...she felt that Madam Xu looked very familiar, so she wanted to go and recognize Madam Xu. Because Aunt Shen and Miss Qi had a good relationship back then, Aunt Shen wanted to see if Madam Xu knew the whereabouts of Miss Qi." Tuiguan Zhang lowered his head. This was what the girl sent someone to tell him before he went to see Lord Sun. He went to look for Aunt Shen specifically, but didn't find her. He knew in his heart that the girl must be very familiar with the matter, and this matter might be manipulated by the girl.

But so what

The girl did not break any law; she was just helping the bad guys to reveal their true colors.

Sometimes, when dealing with bad guys, you can only use methods that are more powerful than theirs, otherwise, you will end up like them.

Yang Bo understood.

I'm afraid there is something really strange about Qi's life experience.

Sun Yongning had been listening with restrained temper, but after hearing this, he couldn't help himself and looked at Yang Bo and urged him in a low voice: "Prime Minister, please come up with a decision quickly. Are you really just going to wait like this?"

Given the chance, who would be willing to be a coward forever

When there is no other way, you can only endure everything. However, if you still endure it when you have the opportunity, that would be really stupid.

Yang Bo immediately looked at Sun Yongning and said, "Go and tell Lao Gao to take his men with him. If anything happens, shouldn't he, as the Minister of Justice, take care of it?"

Sun Yongning was overjoyed and immediately agreed excitedly. Without saying a word, he hurried to inform Gao Ping. After all, Zhang Tui Guan had already told him the location.

The remaining Tui Guan Zhang stood in front of Prime Minister Yang, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Yang Shoufu took a sip of tea and looked at him. He smiled softly after a while and said, "Don't be so nervous. It's a good thing for young people to be passionate and loyal, but being an official is not something that can make you successful. You will understand this truth in a few years. Well, don't stand here. Since you started this case, you will naturally be involved in it. Go back and wait for news. If what you said is true, the Ministry of Justice will second you to help soon. By then, as long as you perform well, you will naturally be able to get ahead."

He never asks people for help for free. Anyone who has worked for him should be rewarded with the same amount.

At this point, Tui Guan Zhang finally believed that what the girl had said before was true, and he answered solemnly.
