Chapter 627

Lu Jiao went out first, Lin Da hurriedly followed, followed by Feng Zhi and Ruan Zhu, a group of people got into the carriage, and went straight to the government office. When they arrived at the government office, Lin Zhifu was interrogating two assassins .

The two assassins even confessed that it was the Ning family who ordered them to assassinate Xie Yunjin.

After hearing the words of the first two assassins, the prefect of Shangshou Lin had an unbelievable expression on his face, so he just handed over the Ning family? Are the two of them sick?

Zhifu Lin didn't know that the two assassins were drugged by Xie Yunjin. At this time, they were a little confused and had a headache, so they handed over the Ning family.

On the side of the main hall, Xie Yunjin clutched his injured arm and looked at the prefect Lin, saying: "Lord prefect, the Ning family is too arrogant to dare to do this to the imperial court officials. If there is no severe punishment, I am afraid that Ningzhou will never have peace. The magistrate should immediately send troops to the Ning family to arrest them."

Prefect Lin looked at Xie Yunjin, calmed down the anger in his heart, and persuaded him kindly.

"Yun Jin, I think it's better to forget it, but the Ning family is a local snake here. They have a lady Zhaoyi in the palace. The lady is very favored. You see, His Majesty even bestowed her father For Uncle Ning."

Xie Yunjin directly gave a sarcastic sneer, if His Majesty really dotes on that Empress Zhaoyi, why should she immediately give her father a title that doesn't even have a salary, but treats that woman like a kitten or puppy It's just a matter of petting and playing.

Before Xie Yunjin had time to speak, a cold voice came in from outside the lobby door.

"The prefect means that the Ning family is the royal law of Ningzhou, and even His Majesty can ignore it?"

As soon as these words came out, Prefect Lin was taken aback. He looked outside in fear, and saw Lu Jiao walking in from outside the lobby in a cold and angry outfit.

Prefect Lin quickly said: "Madam Tongzhi, don't talk nonsense, what is Ningzhou doesn't even look down on His Majesty."

Lu Jiao sneered and said: "Isn't it? My family's husband is the number one scholar bestowed by His Majesty, a six-rank Tongzhi appointed by the above, a decent official of the court, now a small Ningfu dares to ruthlessly deal with him, isn't it? Do you take His Majesty seriously?"

Seeing the appearance of the Xie family and his wife, the prefect Lin made it clear that he wanted to confront the Ning family, so what can he do.

Lin Zhifu thought about it and felt happy. Since they wanted to die, let them die.

Lin Zhifu immediately ordered the people in the government office to invite Uncle Ning.

Uncle Ning was quickly invited over, and only after he came did he know that his son had sent someone to assassinate Xie Yunjin.

Uncle Ning's face is very ugly. Assassinating an imperial official is a serious crime, and his son is really confused.

But things have already happened, Uncle Ning didn't show any timidity, no matter what? There is an empress Zhaoyi in their family, His Majesty dotes on empress.

Uncle Ning thought about it, looked at Xie Yunjin and said, "Why did Xie Tongzhi believe that the Ning family assassinated you? Could it be because of these two assassins? I would also say that you sent them to slander my Ning family."

Xie Yunjin said with a sneer: "Since the uncle said so, let someone check it out. I want to see if these two people are from the Ning family."

Uncle Ning became hoarse. He looked down at the two assassins, and found that they were his son's bodyguards. These two people were familiar faces. If someone went to investigate, they would definitely find out that his son had instructed them.

Then his son must be in trouble, Uncle Ning thought about looking at the two assassins quickly and said: "These two people are indeed people close to my son. My son is seriously injured right now, so it is impossible to order them to assassinate Xie Tongzhi. Not surprisingly, they saw that my son was seriously injured, so they did it on their own initiative."

The two assassins on the ground were a little confused before, but now they are a little more sober. Thinking of what they said before, they broke out in a cold sweat. Their whole family is in Ningfu.

The two assassins answered immediately: "You guys made it on your own initiative."

Uncle Ning was proud: "Look, they did this on their own initiative."

Xie Yunjin looked at Uncle Ning sarcastically: "You lured the assassin to change his confession in front of the court. Before the interrogation by Zhifu Lin, they confessed that you were ordered by the prefect of Ning to assassinate me. Now when uncle came, the assassin changed his confession. , it is clear that the uncle gave them a hint, and it is also a crime to induce a confession in court."

After hearing Xie Yunjin's words, Uncle Ning shouted angrily: "Xie Tongzhi, what do you do? Don't forget that my Ning family is not afraid of you."

Xie Yunjin said sarcastically: "Yes, your Ning family is not afraid of me, your family has a lady Zhaoyi in the palace, so you are not afraid of anyone."

After Xie Yunjin finished speaking, Lu Jiao who was on the side answered, "There is an empress Zhaoyi in your palace, if I say that there is the current eldest princess by my side, I would like to ask, how does the eldest princess meet the empress Zhaoyi?" Wouldn't it be better to win?"

After hearing Lu Jiao's words, Uncle Ning looked at Lu Jiao with a strange expression and said, "What do you mean?"

Lu Jiao sneered and said, "I cured the illness of Princess Wen'an, the daughter of the eldest princess. If I ask the eldest princess to preside over this matter, do you think your majesty will ignore the law because of Lady Zhaoyi?"

As soon as Lu Jiao finished speaking, Uncle Ning's complexion changed, and Governor Lin's complexion in the main hall also turned ugly.

The eldest princess is His Majesty's elder sister, and His Majesty respects her elder sister very much. If she comes forward, Empress Zhaoyi will definitely be implicated.

Uncle Ning's face changed, and the eyes of the prefect of Shangshou Lin were thoughtful. Unexpectedly, the wife of the Tongzhi cured the illness of the eldest princess's daughter. She was in love with the eldest princess If there is a way, they can still win them over.

Uncle Ning looked at Xie Yunjin anxiously and said, "What exactly do you want?"

Xie Yunjin looked at Uncle Ning, and said slowly: "See what Uncle Ning thinks? If you want to be public, hand over the messenger behind the scenes and punish them according to the law. If you want to do it privately, pay twenty thousand taels of silver and write a Give me a letter of commitment, if anyone in my family is injured, it will be the fault of the Ning Mansion, Uncle Ning must hand over the person and stop pestering him."

Lu Jiao added later: "If you don't agree, we don't have to be the sixth-rank acquaintances, and go directly to Beijing to report this matter to His Majesty."

Lu Jiao's words changed the expression of the superior Lin Zhifu. This time not only the Ning family was involved, but also him.

If Xie Yun would like to go to Beijing to report this matter to His Majesty, His Majesty will definitely ask why he, as the magistrate of Ningzhou, did not report to the Duke to handle this matter, then his official position will come to an end.

The prefect of Shangshou Lin immediately looked at Uncle Ning and said, "Uncle, it's better to reconcile in private. If this matter gets serious, it will be bad for your Ning Mansion. Xie Tongzhi is a sixth-rank Tongzhi appointed by the imperial court. How dare your family fight against you?" The imperial court ordered the officials to do things, and it will be a big trouble if it gets out, people may say that your family has no law and doesn't take His Majesty seriously, if this matter spreads to the capital, it will also affect Empress Zhaoyi."
