Chapter 1728 handle

The wood carvings that can be given to the Queen Mother as a birthday gift will reject the wood carvings from Baibao Pavilion.

No matter what happened, Gao Ren realized that the Chu family was not easy to deal with, especially the wife of the Chu family, who could always produce some useful items.

Failed three times in a row, Gao Ren's sanity collapsed, but thinking that the people above told him not to act rashly recently, Gao Ren could only grit his teeth and swallow his blood.

Originally, Qi Shangshu didn't think there was any big problem with the hidden guards sent by Gao Ren.

He has already bought the manpower, all he needs is a hint, and the hidden guard will know what to do.

If there is no evidence at that time, even if Chu Heng is angry, he will not be able to implicate himself. What's more, the prince of Beirong has returned to Beirong recently, and Beirong and Da Chu are discussing the major business affairs. He really has no energy to focus on this matter. .

After instructing the people below to do it, it will not be so powerful.

Unexpectedly, when he was called into the palace by Emperor Xuanming and asked about the political affairs of the court, Emperor Xuanming actually mentioned the fact that Chu Heng's family had caught the thief last night, and asked him if the capital was not safe enough recently. now.

Shangshu Qi was so frightened that his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat. He had also been a minister for more than ten years, and he was used to hiding his true thoughts, otherwise his expression on the spot would have revealed something.

After Qi Shangshu came out of the imperial study room, his heart still couldn't calm down. He only felt that the scorching sun made his head dizzy, so he couldn't help but look up at the sun, his eyes squinted subconsciously, thinking of something, his heart skipped a beat Jump.

Sure enough, when he returned to the mansion, he found out that the hidden guard was not dead, and even vomited out the Liu family.

The Liu family is an official of the household department, and the family is engaged in business. Only the second master of the Liu family entered the household department because of his backing to Qi Shangshu, and held a moderate official position. Fourth-rank officials are not conspicuous in the capital. But the Liu family is a wealthy businessman second only to the Gao family.

With this confession, the yamen went directly to take Master Liu's family back for interrogation.

Qi Shangshu's heart sank. He knew that the Liu family had no reason to set fire to the Chu family. If it didn't make sense, with Chu Heng's vigorous and vigorous means, he would definitely be able to force the Liu family to confess to the Gao family. When the home is gone, it is equivalent to the loss of one's own wallet.

What's more, Emperor Xuanming already knew about this matter. Whether Chu Heng said it himself or asked him on his own initiative, this is not good news.

Chu Heng caught his handle.

Qi Shangshu was startled and angry, and contacted Gao Shangshu that night. The two of them had nothing to do with each other on the surface, and they even had a bad relationship between the court and China, but no one knew that they had a close relationship in private.

Gao Ren became a little scared when he heard the news from Shangshu Qi. He never thought that such a random incident would lead to such serious consequences.

Especially the women of the Liu family sent people to the mansion to ask him for help.

Gao Ren had only one idea in his mind, absolutely not to let the Liu family confess himself.

He replied directly to the message, making the Liu family suffer this disaster.

When the Liu family heard the news, several female relatives couldn't help crying, and they also developed a trace of resentment towards the Gao family.

But that night, someone sent a letter telling them to confess their guilt.

The old lady of the Liu family lowered her head. Sitting there were three daughter-in-laws whose eyes were swollen from crying. The first and second masters of the Liu family were arrested. At the same time, the Liu family had to cooperate with the investigation.
