Chapter 118: When the wall falls, everyone pushes it
After running through two gardens and not finding anyone, Lin Baoer became worried.
Big brother and dad haven't come back yet, could something have happened?
After waiting anxiously for an hour, Lin Ruqian was the first to come back.
"Dad! Mom!" He rushed into Shangchun Garden, looking hurried, "I heard something happened to the Sun family?"
But the only one who answered him was Lin Baoer.
"Third brother, Dad and Mom haven't come back yet." Lin Baoer was helpless.
When Lin Ruqian heard this, he turned around and wanted to leave, but Lin Baoer quickly stopped him, "Hey hey hey third brother! Wait wait! Dad and Mom should be back soon, where are you going now?!"
"I'm going to the Sun Mansion to check on the situation." Lin Ruqian looked anxious.
He heard this at An Ning Academy. Everyone was discussing the theft of tributes by the Sun family. Most of them sighed and said it was none of their business. Some even criticized maliciously, taking pleasure in the misfortune. He could not stay there any longer. He did not care about being punished by Zou Xuejiu and just walked out.
The Sun family has always been on good terms with the Lin family. Naturally, they could not ignore such a thing.
Shen Xuelan thought the same way, so she went to the Sun family as soon as she got the news and has not returned since.
"It's useless for you to go."
At this time, another voice sounded from outside Shangchun Garden.
Lin Baoer looked over and was surprised, "Second brother!"
The person who came was Lin Mobai.
Lin Mobai patted Lin Ruqian on the shoulder and frowned, "Now the Sun Mansion has been heavily guarded, no one can go in or out. I'm afraid we have to wait until the matter is investigated before we can get any news." "
Then can we just sit here and wait for death?" Lin Ruqian said anxiously.
"What about mother?!" Lin Baoer noticed another blind spot.
Since the Sun Mansion has been heavily guarded, what about Shen Xuelan?
Hearing this, Lin Mobai's expression eased a little, "Mother sent someone to tell us not to worry, she is fine, and she is accompanying Madam Sun."
Lin Baoer breathed a sigh of relief.
"Big brother and father should be back in half an hour. Let's talk after they come back." He looked at the sky and said in a heavy tone.
Half an hour later, Lin Zhiyu and Lin Qiming returned from the palace as promised.
"Dad, big brother, what's going on?" The three of them wanted to go up.
Lin Qiming shook his head and sighed, and only said two words, "Dangerous."
The faces of the three changed.
Lin Zhiyu rubbed his brows, and his eyes showed fatigue. "Early this morning at 11:00 AM, someone advised Your Majesty that the missing Hai Dongqing appeared in the Sun Mansion, and even produced the transaction certificate between the Sun Mansion and Xianle Pavilion. The evidence is solid."
"At the same time, the ministers of the court advised Your Majesty that Lord Sun did not teach his son well. His son spent all day in fireworks places and did not repent even after being thrown into the barracks. He even became worse. Not only did he bully the soldiers with his status, but he also released fugitives privately and insulted the innocent people."
"Not only that, the Sun Mansion also occupied the private property of the people and used their positions to privately issue stamp duty, which has caused many murders and so on."
"How is it possible..." Lin Ruqian couldn't believe it, "Big Brother Sun is not that kind of person!"
They had just met not long ago. Even when Sun Ruqian was deliberately sent to pick up feces, he never compromised. He was determined to make a name for himself in the military camp, so how could he do such immoral and shameful things?
Not only him, but even Lin Zhiyu didn't believe what those people said.
So he took the initiative to propose a thorough investigation of the case of tribute theft and clear Big Brother Sun's name.
Unfortunately, when the wall falls, everyone pushes it, especially when there are many people fanning the flames. His advice is of no use at all, but it only adds fuel to the fire.
If Lin Qiming hadn't rescued him in time, I'm afraid he would have been affected.
"But... why did the transaction certificate of Xianle Pavilion get lost? And even happened to be presented to the emperor?"
Lin Baoer suddenly said.
Lin Zhiyu shook his head, "The person who gave the advice is unknown. We only know that the person went to Yu's study early in the morning and kept his identity a secret. No news has been heard so far."
"What about the Saker Falcon? Was it really found in the Sun Mansion?" Lin Ruqian continued to ask without giving up.
Lin Zhiyu nodded, "It was Brother Ying who led people there that day. He saw with his own eyes that the Saker Falcon had been tortured to death. That's why His Majesty was so angry."
Lin Ruqian was a little depressed and his eyes were gray.
If there is no key evidence to prove that the Saker Falcon was not the work of the Sun family, then this game will be a dead end.
[But the only person in the Sun family besides Sun Zice is Sun Xier. Sun Zice was not in Yanjing City on the day of the auction, and Sun Xier did not leave the house. According to the third brother, Sun Xier was well protected by Sun Zice and would never go to places like Xianle Pavilion.]
[Then none of the sons and daughters of the Sun family went to Xianle Pavilion to participate in the auction. It is impossible that Lord Sun or Madam Sun went there by themselves? They had nothing better to do, so they went to buy an eagle? 】
The words were rough but the truth was there. Lin Baoer's voice reminded everyone. Lin Mobai narrowed his eyes, "Brother, have you seen the transaction certificate presented?"
Lin Zhiyu's face was solemn, "I didn't see it, but Dad did."
Lin Qiming nodded, "It is clearly written in black and white that it was obtained from the auction of one thousand taels of gold, but there is no name in the signature, only the seal of the Sun family."
These words immediately made everyone's expression subtle.
"Didn't a branch of the Sun family come not long ago? It's in the mansion at the end of the alley in the north of the city."
Lin Ruqian looked angry, "It must be that bastard Sun Ziyu!"
"He spends his days drinking and drinking, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. It must be him who bought the Saker Falcon that day!"
This led to the disaster of the Sun family!
Lin Qiming glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "Don't forget, the transaction was for one thousand and two taels of gold. Although Sun Chi is the Director of the Imperial Library, he has only been in office for a short time. Moreover, his family moved here from Youyang. How could they have so much money?" "
Even if his annual salary is added up, it is less than one-tenth of this."
Lin Zhiyu echoed and added, "And the seal of the Sun Mansion is different from that of the side branches, just to distinguish them. If it is really from the side branch Sun Mansion, it would have been recognized long ago."
"Then doesn't this mean we are in a stalemate?!" Lin Ruqian said discouragedly.
"I'll check Sun Ziyu's whereabouts that day later." Lin Mobai said coldly, "All of this is just speculation. Once we check, everything will be clear. Whether Sun Ziyu has been to Xianle Pavilion, whether the Sun family has other activities behind the scenes, and whether there is any conspiracy in this matter, we will know it once we check. We can't just sit here and wait for death."
"Besides, after such a thing happened, Brother Sun should be back soon."
[If that's the case, what about Xianle Pavilion? The transaction certificate has been put out, and the Sun family who bought the Costin has something wrong. What about the seller Xianle Pavilion? They broke the law knowingly and auctioned tributes. Can it be okay? 】
