"Yes, I obey your command." Fang Zuotang said hurriedly.
When he said this, Fang Zuotang was very surprised. He knew Mei Ya's true identity. She was just a rough maid in the past. Although she was lucky enough to be Zhong Mingwei's wife now, her background was still there. Besides, even if she was a rich lady, what was the problem? When the masters were talking about serious matters, shouldn't they avoid her? But Zhong Mingwei didn't mean to let her avoid him at all, which was really shocking. It was not until this moment that Fang Zuotang understood. It turned out that Zhong Mingwei really married this ugly girl out of love.
"It's like this. A while ago, didn't I write to the capital to report the death of the Duan family's daughter and Xiao An? Now there is a reply from the capital." Fang Zuotang said as he took a letter from Kong Wenmin and handed it to Zhong Mingwei with both hands. "Please take a look, Master."
As soon as Zhong Mingwei saw the seal on the letter, he frowned. As he opened the letter, he frowned and asked, "Why is it a reply from the Ministry of Justice?"
Yes. It was just the death of two women. It would be fine to report it to the capital. At most, the Ministry of Internal Affairs would reply with a letter. Why did it even alarm the Ministry of Justice?
"Yes, I also think it's weird. So I personally sent it to you," Fang Zuotang said, watching Zhong Mingwei's frown getting tighter and tighter. He couldn't help but get more and more worried. After Zhong Mingwei finished reading the letter, Fang Zuotang hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What does the Ministry of Justice mean?"
"The current Minister of Justice is Zou Shijie?" Zhong Mingwei did not answer, but asked Fang Zuotang with a frown.
"Yes, the old Minister Yan of the Ministry of Justice retired and returned home. Your Majesty has graciously appointed Zou Shijie, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice, as the Minister of the Ministry of Justice," Fang Zuotang said, looking at Zhong Mingwei's expressionless face, and then asked, "Sir, is there anything wrong with this?"
"No wonder the Ministry of Justice wants to find fault with the An family," Zhong Mingwei nodded, and while placing the letter on the stone table, he looked sideways at Pang Yi, "You encountered an assassin on the way to Ningguta to escort the An family, right?"
"Yes, the assassin was obviously sent by the nobleman in the capital, so in order to wake up the nobleman who had lost his mind, I killed the assassin and threw his body into the county government office. I reported this to you as soon as I arrived in Ningguta," Pang Yi said, and then asked carefully, "Is there anything wrong with this?"
"Of course, there was nothing wrong with what you did at that time. It saved you from endless pursuit along the way. But Zou Shijie was very smart and guessed that the assassin was sent by An Zishang. But he and Prince Hui were patient and kept it a secret at that time," Zhong Mingwei said slowly, pointing to the secret letter on the table, and said, "Now, as soon as Minister Yan retired and returned to his hometown, they are busy bringing up the old matter again."
"What are they going to do?" Mei Ya didn't quite understand what was said, but she knew someone was going to make a fuss about Xiao An's death, so she immediately became anxious. "Making a fuss about a woman, and a dead woman at that. What benefit can they get from it?"
"Of course there are benefits, and I'm afraid there are quite a few," Zhong Mingwei said slowly, "If something happens to the An family, it will naturally affect Prince Rong's Mansion. If something happens to Prince Rong's Mansion, the Zhao family and the Imperial Concubine will naturally not be able to escape. As the saying goes, when one prospers, all prosper, and when one suffers, all suffer."
"My Lord is right," Fang Zuotang nodded hurriedly, "The Empress Cheng and the Imperial Noble Consort are having a huge fight, and the Rong Prince's Mansion and the Hui County Prince's Mansion are also very lively."
"What happened?" Zhong Mingwei asked after taking a sip of tea.
