Chapter 974: Good intentions

Time passed slowly, and Murong Yan, who was hit hard, stopped crying. Her originally pretty face now looked a little overshadowed!

Jiang Lang couldn't help but sigh in his heart. There was nothing he could do about it. She should have a warm home, but she never expected that this home would face such a bad luck before it was established!

Now I know how to comfort Murong Yan, and I can only be with me!

After a while, Murong Yan raised her head and said, "Brother, can I meet Qi Tianci?"

"What did you do when you see him?"

Jiang Lang asked quickly, feeling a little worried!

"I want to ask him why he killed my husband. My husband has always treated him as a brother, but he didn't expect that he would kill him!"

Murong Yan said with some gritted teeth. After crying, this is the only thing she wants to know now!

Jiang Lang shook his head and said, "It's not possible yet!"

"Why?"

Murong Yan asked immediately!

"I'm worried you'll do stupid things!"

Jiang Lang immediately said, sighed slightly, and said, "Although we can basically confirm that Qi Tianci is the murderer, the most important thing is that we still need to have sufficient evidence to prove that he is the murderer, so that only then can it be convincing!"

"I won't do stupid things!"

Murong Yan shook her head and said, "Brother, let me go!"

At this time, it is absolutely impossible for Murong Yan to meet Qi Tianci. After all, she just learned the news and would not have done anything stupid at that time!

Jiang Lang still shook his head, stood up, walked to Murong Yan's side, and said, "Don't worry, I will find out the truth. If it was really him, I would definitely marry him. Do you understand?"

"Is there anyone else?"

Murong Yan also heard some of the other words in Jiang Lang!

Jiang Lang shook his head slightly and said, "I will not make a conclusion until the case is revealed, but all the evidence now points directly to Qi Tianci, so you have to believe that your elder brother will give you a satisfactory answer. What you have to do now is to calm down and understand?"

Murong Yan did believe in Jiang Lang, and nodded slightly and said, "Then, brother, I will believe in you!"

Jiang Lang pondered for a moment before continuing: "How about this? You can go back to your hometown in Hangzhou for a while in this short period of time. Let others take responsibility for this private school matter for the time being. Let the rest of your mind there and come back when the matter is over!"

Of course, Murong Yan understood Jiang Lang's feelings. He was also worried that she would not be able to stand the blow. In addition, the private school affairs are very busy now, which made Murong Yan a little unable to bear it. So Jiang Lang gave her a temporary rest. In this way, at least she could take care of her health!

On the other hand, people are afraid of words!

Murong Yan shook her head and said, "Brother, you don't have to worry too much about me. I know, so I'll go back now!"

"I'll give it to you!"

Jiang Lang made an escort request, but Murong Yan refused at all, and then Jiang Lang escorted her back to Murong Mansion!

After watching Murong Yan enter, Jiang Lang turned around and said, "Come on!"

The guard next to him immediately stepped forward and said, "Sir, I have a good order!"

"Go back and tell Qian Zhengbang that no one is allowed to talk about Qi Tianci's killing Lord Xie. If anyone dares to disobey, arrest me!"

Jiang Lang said viciously that he still has a very good understanding of the Chinese people. The most important point is that the spread of rumors completely exceeds the plague.

Now many people in the capital still have some hostility towards the Murong family. On the one hand, Murong Fu controls the entire chamber of commerce, which makes some people who have not joined the chamber of commerce see that others have made a lot of money and have not gained anything. Therefore, they will definitely feel very unhappy. At this time, such a thing happened to Murong Yan's family is of course their best opportunity. They will definitely find ways to slander the reputation of the Murong family. The cause of this incident is that Qi Tianci coveted Murong Yan's beauty and family wealth, and they meet the so-called standard of beauty disasters. Since ancient times, whether it is the destruction of Zhou of Shang, the beacon of the princes, or Yang Guifei and others, although it is not wrong as women, people will put their sins on them. In fact, they are the most innocent, and beauty is not wrong!

Murong Yan lost her husband last year, and today it was revealed that his husband was killed by someone. It was also because of himself that he was already very guilty. If she was asked to face those rumors at this time, it would undoubtedly be a little worse for her. How could Murong Yan bear it?

Jiang Lang's order was said for the first time. Although in the original society, it was said that the people had the right to know and the right to speak, and many people also sneered at the officials who did not allow the people to speak, Jiang Lang had no choice now. Murong Yan was his sister, and although he was just a sister, he had to protect her now. Therefore, even if such a domineering order was very unsuitable, he had to force the rumors to suppress, even if he used any means!

The guard was about to leave, and Jiang Lang shouted again: "Wait!"

The guard immediately stopped and said, "Sir, what else do you have to give me!"

Jiang Lang moaned for a moment before saying, "At the same time, I'll send someone to say to Lord Jiang of the Jinyiwei, "Well, forget it, I'll go!"

The two major forces in the capital, the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei, so Jiang Lang also decided to ask Jiang Chengzhi for help!

After finding Jiang Chengzhi, Jiang Lang explained his plans very simply!

Hearing this plan, Jiang Chengzhi pondered for a moment, then said, "Will this effect be too big?"

Jiang Lang shook his head and said, "I can't take so many things now. Rumors will not happen soon. I must ensure that this matter has no effect on her. You also know that she is actually a very poor girl. As a brother, I can't help but think about my sister!"

Jiang Chengzhi sighed: "You are the elder brother, although you are someone else's elder brother, you are just as good as your own brother. I think other brothers are not as hard as you do. Well, okay, since you have said everything, of course I can't help you!"

"Thank you!"

Jiang Lang thanked, "If there are any consequences, I will bear them all!"

Jiang Chengzhi laughed and said, "Why, in your eyes, am I so timid and afraid? Besides, what can happen? The worst thing is that those who don't like me can write two books from the emperor. But if I want to write, I will admit it. Murong Yan is a good girl, a good person and smart, but no one expected that this would happen to her. Although your approach is a bit extreme, it is still a way to protect her!"

So, the originally peaceful capital began to stir up some turmoil by the two heads of the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei.

On the other hand, Jiang Lang is sending people to thoroughly investigate the case, and on the other hand, Jiang Lang is preparing for the matter of allowing foreign envoys to watch the weapon demonstration. The days are fleeting!

And just as Jiang Lang expected, the matter about Qi Tianci was indeed left out of the court!

Drinking tea is one of the things that young and old in the capital like to do the most, especially in the afternoon, a cup of tea, a stack of melon seeds and peanuts, and then listen to the storytellers tell interesting things, and then give them some rewards and brags. This is how this day is called timidity!

Today's teahouse is the same as before. This is said that the gentleman stood in front, talking about the Three Kingdoms fighting Lu Bu in the Three Kingdoms. Below, five businessmen were sitting against the table at the door, drinking tea and knocking the melon seeds in his hands. It seemed that the private school teacher who had been talking for a few days was too boring. After listening for a while, these people felt a little bored, so one of them lowered his voice and said: "Do you know, something big happened recently!"

"What's the big deal?"

The rest of the people asked strangely.

"This Qi family's son and his son were arrested by the people from the East Factory!"

He continued, looking a little mysterious!

"Who doesn't know this? Qi Tianci's guy went to a brothel and fought with others and beat him to death, so he was taken away by the Dongchang!"

"It's so simple there. My cousin, he's in the yamen. I heard that this matter is actually not about the matter of Dongchang. There are other reasons why Dongchang takes people, but it's not just about Qi Tianci who accidentally killed someone!"

"There are other things? Let's hear what it is!"

"It also has something to do with Murong Yan from Murong Private School. I heard that his husband was killed by other events. It was Qi Tianci who coveted her beauty and family wealth, so he poisoned her husband to death!"

"Is it true? It's so mysterious!"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe it, go and inquire. Many people have already known this. The most important point is, alas, what a pity!"

"What a pity? But why does Murong Yan like Qi Tianci? That kid is just a fool! But his heart is quite cruel. Alas, it's just a pity that Lord Xie died at a young age!"

"That's not necessarily. Maybe there's a lot of stuff in it. If Qi Tianci and Murong Yan collude, this...!"

At this time, he suddenly felt someone's hand pressing on his shoulder. His interest was interrupted at the moment. He turned around with some anger and said angrily: "Who! Stop me!"

When I looked back, there were a few burly men standing behind me. Of course, I felt relieved and said, "What do you... do you want to do?"

The big man took out a sign, shook his eyes and said, "Come with us!"

The two words "Dongchang" are written on this brand.

"Sir, I, I did nothing. You guys have recognized the wrong person!"

"We did not admit our mistakes, and they will take them away together!"

The big man was not soft-hearted at all, and waved his hand!

"Sir, we don't know him!"

Someone called me immediately. This Dongchang is definitely not a good place, and I am not willing to go there for sightseeing!

The big man smiled coldly and said, "I don't know you, but you're so speculative. If you have anything to say, I'll take it away when I go back!"

A few big men, like wolves and tigers, drove them right away without saying a word.1

This sudden scene made everyone stunned. After they left, someone asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with them? Why were they arrested by the people from the East Factory!"

"It seems that they just talked about Mrs. Murong, and then they were arrested by Dongchang!"

"I deserve it. This is the end of like to gossip behind my back. Mrs. Murong is already very likely. She is still saying behind her back that she should be caught, but she doesn't think about who her sworn brother is!"

"Shh, whisper, I'll catch you in a while, forget it if you catch you, don't implicate us!"

In just a short period of time, many people were arrested, and in addition to the Dongchang, there were also Jinyiwei!

Now the people also understood that some of the slandering words about Murong Yan were not something they could not say!

Of course, those who have slander are praised by praise. In their eyes, the most innocent one is Murong Yan. She should have a happy and happy family, but what people never expected was that such a thing happened. Someone spyed on the family fortune and killed her husband, but she didn't know it!

Because the remarks on the one hand were suppressed, the remarks on the other hand were quickly strengthened, which was exactly what Jiang Lang needed. Many of these remarks were criticized for Qi Tianci's ruthlessness and ambition. Many people spontaneously went to the gate of Qi's family. The people in the Qi's family could not come out at all. They cried all day long, and they planned to ask for help, but everyone who heard about their purpose was closed. Who would help Qi's family at this time would push themselves into the fire pit? Who would be so stupid?

At this time, the Qi family had been pushed to the forefront, and for them, they were living like a year!

Of course, this incident also spread to the palace. After the morning court, Emperor Jingtai called Jiang Lang alone into the imperial study room, then threw out a large stack of notes and said, "Look, these are all notes for you!"

Jiang Lang knew that if he didn’t look at it, it would be strange if there was no ginseng in the past few days!

Emperor Jingtai walked back and forth a few steps in anger, and then said, "Do you know that the same thing in these comments mentioned, that is, you abused your power and arrested a lot of people and went back. I want to ask you why you arrested those people! Is it because they talked about bad things about Murong Yan!"

"yes!"

Jiang Lang answered very simply and said, "As the emperor said, the reason why I arrested them was that they slandered Murong Yan!"
