Chapter 228 Coincidence is also fate
The letter did not clearly state what he was doing in Xiyan, but it was a fact that Mr. Xie was not dead. I don’t know whether my father knew it.
Ye Qianning put the letter away and planned to show it to his father tomorrow.
Qian Fanji left the Prime Minister's Mansion and got directly into a carriage not far outside the courtyard.
In the carriage, Qian Fu sat on the left, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, waving them slowly. In the middle was a soft couch and a table, on which were placed rice paper and ink.
The brush soaked the rice paper. It was obvious that the person who had just used it left in a hurry and did not have time to clean the brush and ink before painting a large area.
"The letter has been delivered." Qianfu opened his eyes.
Qian Fanji got into the carriage and sat down without saying a word.
"Why are you so concerned about the Xiang family's affairs? You mobilized everyone to investigate today. I remember that you are not the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people's affairs."
"smoothly."
"Don't be so perfunctory. What's the point of this? Back when I was Prime Minister, I dealt with someone named Xie. I even happened to see Madam Xiang and someone named Xie arguing in a temple. If I hadn't known you were investigating, I wouldn't have remembered it." Qian Fu thought for a moment and said, "We've been investigating this matter day and night for the past few days, but we haven't found anything. This shows that this matter is extremely obscure. It's a very capable thing to be able to hide it from everyone."
Qian Fanji could not deny that he had sent everyone out but had not found any clues. If his father had not mentioned it, no one except the parties involved would have been able to find the Xie family in the east of the city.
If it weren’t for the fact that my father really had no clue about the news that Mr. Xie died at sea, Qian Fanji couldn’t help but look at Qian Fu.
Is this fate or coincidence? Two years ago, my father went to Xiyan with the abbot to exchange Zen ideas and happened to meet Mr. Xie in the capital of Xiyan.
"Tell me honestly what's going on with the child from Xiang Minghou's family." Qian Fu knew his son very well.
"nothing."
"The Zhan family, the Gu family, Dean Chen, and Marquis Xiang Ming are all circling around this little girl. I just think she's cute and likable, but for you to be able to do this, it's not easy."
"It's just a coincidence. There's nothing much to say. Once you're done with the things in Kyoto, you should hurry back to the temple." Qian Fanji said calmly.
"You kid, the more you don't say anything, the more trouble you'll have. Well, if you don't say anything, I'll go find that kid and ask him about it someday."
"Please go ahead." Qian Fanji closed his eyes and rested.
Chisuke was fiddling with the beads. Kyoto City seemed to be much more interesting than before, and he couldn't go back to the temple for the time being.
——
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and the matter of the Xiang family in Kyoto City came to an end. However, there were still many rumors. The Prime Minister's Mansion had been feeling aggrieved these days, as the matter was suppressed by the Xiang family's affairs as soon as it came out.
When Prime Minister Gao woke up from his serious injuries, before he could appeal, the emperor issued an edict, rewarding him with some items without mentioning any punishment for the Xiang family.
Feeling dissatisfied, he would send a memorial to the emperor every day to accuse Xiang Minghou of allowing his daughter to commit murder.
Emperor Beili had been receiving memorials for several days in a row, which was really a headache for him. He had to give an explanation to so many memorials. It was difficult for him to say anything about such a thing happening in the General's Mansion, and he was in a dilemma.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Gao hates General Xiang to the core." Eunuch Li looked at a stack of memorials. Even if the memorials were rejected by the emperor, he would still submit them.
So brave!
"How can the country be stable if the court officials are not harmonious? But you can see that both the civil and military officials are stubborn." The Emperor of Beili was not leaning towards either family at this time.
"The person who tied the bell must untie it. In this matter, I have to look at the young lady." Eunuch Li said.
