Chapter 1352 His Identity Is a Bit Sensitive
When Wan Yanfang left, another hour had passed. Liu Wei saw that Wan Zhong was absent-minded and offered to come here today so that he could go back to the posthouse and have a good rest.
Wan Zhongshen left without hesitation, but as soon as he left, Liu Wei ran to the county government office.
After meeting Zhuang Chang, the first thing Liu Wei asked was: "Who is Ji Chundong?"
Zhuang Changben was flipping through the documents involved in the Wanli case, and he was fascinated when Liu Wei broke in and suddenly asked a name that he didn't expect.
Zhuang Chang was stunned for a moment, his eyes circling Liu Wei several times before he slowly spoke: "Ji Chundong?"
Liu Wei stood there with a serious look on his face: "I heard that he is an imperial lord, and he is currently serving in Wuhuang County, Yuanzhou?"
Zhuang Chang's Maitreya Buddha-like smiling face had already gone away. He looked at Liu Wei in surprise, his eyes moving up and down: "Did Wan Zhong tell you?"
Liu Wei said "hmm" and took another step forward: "Master Ji... Master Zhuang, do you understand?"
Zhuang Chang did not answer her question. He only changed his sitting position and asked again: "Did Wan Zhong tell you this?" Liu Wei didn't know why he kept asking. She was a little impatient, but she still explained: "Master Zhuang, you want to be here?" What I did was try to find a way to convict Wan. But from what I can see, in order to convict, I must first determine whether she really killed someone. Whether it was Hongfen or Father Li, this was the breaking point. I had to confirm Wan’s time. In order to conduct a more in-depth investigation, Hongfen's case happened too many years ago, and Li's father's case happened three years ago. It would be troublesome to investigate Hongfen's matter, but if Mr. Li was really murdered by Wan, That is silencing, and silencing is done in a hurry, and the details are easily overlooked. What I want to know now is Wan's timeline before and after Li's case, including her interpersonal relationships at the time, etc., so Mr. Zhuang, please tell me the truth. Mr. Ji Chundong, do you know exactly what you know about Mr. Ji Chundong? Do you know that three years ago, he and the Wan family
Was there any involvement? "
Asking Zhuang Chang is the fastest way in Liu Wei's opinion. She can't wait for Wan Zhong to confess to her. The incident in Wan Yanfang just now was sudden. Her series of analyzes shocked Wan Zhong, so she can easily get rid of Wan Zhong. Mouth to words.
But now that the shock has passed, Wan Zhong herself is confused again. Liu Wei doesn't want to waste time on a useless person, so she needs another clue chain.
That Ji Chundong, as she said, didn't look like an outsider, so she wanted to know about that person.
Zhuang Chang didn't answer Liu Wei for a long time. Even though she had made it clear, Zhuang Chang just didn't say anything.
Just when Liu Wei thought he was asking the wrong person, Zhuang Chang spoke: "In just one day, Wan Zhong has already mentioned Ji Chundong to you? Did you give him the soup?"
Liu Wei frowned, never expecting that Zhuang Chang was actually thinking about this: "What kind of person Wan Zhong is, I think Mr. Zhuang already knows enough, don't you still invite him for a drink?"
Chang Zhuang sat up straighter and laughed: "It was precisely because he was still unable to speak after he was drunk that I left him to you. Then how did you get him to speak? Logically speaking, he should It’s just to guard against you.”
Liu Wei smacked his mouth, looking very unconcerned: "He looks quite stupid, just ask him, but maybe it's because of his stupidity that the Wan family uses him as a fool."
Zhuang Chang was obviously aware of the Wan family's use of Wan Zhong. He smiled a little deeper when he heard this, but looking at Liu Wei's eyes, he was still very surprised: "Two thousand taels of silver, it's worth it."
Liu Wei's eyes lit up, thinking that they were going to talk about a price increase, and she was a little excited.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Chang changed the topic and now talked about Ji Chundong: "He is from the imperial court, but not from the imperial court."
Liu Wei didn't understand. He pulled up a chair and sat across from Zhuang Chang. He put his hands on the table and nodded with interest: "How do you say it?"
Zhuang Chang looked at her disrespectful behavior and didn't care, saying, "His identity... is a bit sensitive."
Liu Wei also moved her head closer: "Sensitive?"
"There are rumors..." Zhuang Chang's voice became even lower: "He is that one..." Pointing to the sky: "That's the one, the illegitimate son living among the people..."
Liu Wei opened his eyes wide after hearing the big gossip: "Your emperor here also likes to bloom peach blossoms among the people?"
Zhuang Chang noticed the words "you here".
He knew from Magistrate Song that Liu Wuzuo was not from the Xianyan country, but he couldn't find out which country she was from.
Zhuang Chang pretended not to care, turned around in his mind, and then said: "But it's just a rumor. Maybe he is too young, and his age always makes people think wrong?"
Liu Wei asked again: "Is he very young? Wan Zhong calls him eldest brother." Anyway, Wan Zhong is in his twenties.
Zhuang Chang said: "Thirty-one is still thirty-two, without a wife or children."
Liu Wei touched her chin: "Are you ugly? Can't find a wife?"
Zhuang Chang shook his head: "He originally had a wife, but then she died of illness. The two of them had no children at the time. Later, his wife died. He never married her and refused to accept her. He has been single to this day and has no children."
Liu Wei nodded and asked: "Then he was really just recruiting soldiers in Tingjiang Prefecture? Are those things in Tingjiang Prefecture related to him?" Zhuang Chang couldn't say for sure, he was round and fat. He pinched his chubby chin with his fingers, and said appraised: "How could he go to serve in the state capital when he is such a good captain of the Imperial Guard? There have been different opinions in Beijing about this matter, and the official silver was stolen in Tingjiang Prefecture that year. case, the timing is too coincidental
, I lost three million taels of silver at that time. Do you know this? "
Liu Wei nodded: "I know, Wan Zhong said so."
Zhuang Chang glanced at her: "Is there anything Wan Zhong didn't say?"
Liu Wei thought about it and shook his head: "I don't know. I asked as many questions as I could." Zhuang Chang didn't know what to say to her, so he continued: "The state government reported that three million taels were missing. Such a large amount of money, we patrol The Imperial Household sent out people to investigate at that time, and the person doing the investigation was not me. But I saw the final results, and they were indeed the same. However, there were also rumors in Beijing that Wan Li and Ji Chundong
, have some private contacts. After speaking, he rubbed his fingers and said, "That's the deal." "
Gold and silver trading? Liu Wei was stunned immediately, and then thought of another possibility: "Ji Chundong selects soldiers, and uses the selected soldiers for his own use. Wan Zhong said that after the soldiers are selected, they will be defined as the imperial private soldiers, then What you mean is that the emperor gave Ji Chundong authority and also gave Wan Li the order to privately transfer
Three million taels were allocated to Ji Chundong to select troops. So, as soon as Ji Chundong left, official silver was stolen? "
Zhuang Chang narrowed his eyes. Although he felt that these words should not be said to an outsider like Liu Wei, he couldn't help but mention it: "Do you know who Ni Nantian is?"
Liu Wei nodded: "Master of Wan Zhong."
Okay, Wan Zhong knew it, and it seemed that Liu Wuzuo also knew it. Zhuang Chang decided not to ask this kind of question for a while.
"When Ni Nantian was young, he was very prosperous and had a bright future. Later, he said something wrong in front of the emperor and was sent to Tingjiang. Do you know what he said?"
Liu Wei shook his head: "What?"
"He said that it was a big mistake for the emperor to appoint Fu Yin to such a position. He also said that the emperor did not serve the country or the people at all. He was clearly a selfish, greedy and lustful shameless villain..."
Liu Wei couldn't imagine: "He said this, can he still leave the capital alive?" "So this is not death." Zhuang Chang sighed: "Some people have been talking about these things together for a long time, so, Mr. Liu, do you think it’s true or false?”
