Because the Ministry of Justice was busy biting off the fat piece of meat of the gambling house, it had to fight with the Ministry of Revenue, and the Zhu family case, one after another, gradually diverted everyone's attention. The serial murder case that was previously a hot topic and the Ministry of Justice did not hesitate to apply for martial law has attracted fewer people's attention recently. Few people pay attention to it, but it does not mean that the Six Gates are not serious. The transparent people in the Six Gates know how to control the offenders and how to please the officials. Naturally, there are also talented players who focus on the case, not seeking promotion or wealth, but only seeking to solve the case and find the truth. The Ministry of Justice has been busy for a long time, but has not been able to find clues in the serial case. The talented players on the Ministry of Justice have really found clues. Chen Guanlou sent someone to listen to the investigation. It is said that the deceased in this case is related to a robbery and murder case that occurred in another place two years ago. Based on this clue, the Ministry of Justice has sent people to the local area to investigate the case two years ago. Whether this case can be solved depends on this trip. Thanks to the peace in the world for many years, the archives in the government office are well kept. Not to mention two years ago, even the original case files can be found for cases more than 10 years ago. According to the clues investigated by the Ministry of Justice, the serial case is very likely a homicide case. Following this clue, the truth will be revealed sooner or later. Knowing that the case has made obvious progress, Chen Guanlou thought, no wonder the Six Gates are famous, and there are indeed experts in handling cases. A serial case that could not find a clue was found to have related clues.
When Doctor Mu was free, he went to the office to drink tea and told Chen Guanlou a piece of gossip. "Do you still remember the father and son of the Shen family who were imprisoned in the B-shaped prison?" "Of course I remember. How is the condition of the child Shen Yi?" "Don't worry, the father and son of the Shen family live in our Mu family clinic and are taken care of by the apprentices of the clinic. I took time to see the doctor and prescribe medicine. The child's condition has been alleviated. In half a year or a year, he will be cured." "Old Mu, you are so virtuous and will bring blessings to future generations." "Thank you for your good words. . " "Is the money enough? If not, I will send another sum of money over." "It is enough for now. Do you remember that Shen Buzhi once said that he would go to the capital to find a doctor. Do you know who they are looking for?" When Chen Guanlou heard this, he immediately became interested and asked hurriedly: "Did you hear who it is, Old Mu? It seems that I know him?" "I know him." Doctor Mu kept it a secret. Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, "It can't be the Marquis' Mansion! If the Shen family came to the Marquis' Mansion for medical help, given the style of the Marquis' Mansion, they would not even meet them and drive them away. At least they should seal two bags of silver and settle them down." "It's not the Marquis' Mansion!" Doctor Mu decisively revealed the mystery, "It's the Xu family!" "Ah!" Chen Guanlou suddenly realized, a little surprised, "Xu Lin, the Xu family?" "That's right!" "What's going on? Shen Buzhi and his son came to the door, and the Xu family really drove them out?" Doctor Mu whispered: "Shen Buzhi and his son came to the door to ask to see Xu Jinsong, but they didn't see the real owner at all. The doorman didn't even inform them, and they sent the person away." Chen Guanlou was very surprised. "Shen Buzhi came to ask for a meeting, so he must have brought a token. With a token and a letter, the gatekeeper could still drive him away and not even pass on the message?" "It was precisely after seeing the token that the gatekeeper refused to pass on the message. I guess everyone has guessed that the ancestor of the Shen family committed a crime and the whole family was exiled to Xizhou. After I got to know Shen Buzhi recently, I finally learned about the origins of the father and son. Everyone knows that two or three years ago, there was a Shen in the capital who served as the Minister of War. Later, he was implicated in a case, and this Shen was beheaded and his family was exiled to Xizhou. Shen Buzhi is the grandson of this Shen."
Chen Guanlou suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Shen Buzhi's temperament did not look like a native resident of the border, and his words and deeds seemed to come from a family. "Shen Family and Xu Family?" He asked curiously. "In the early years, the Xu family had a difficult time. The Shen and Xu families are old friends. When the Shen family was in office, they often helped Xu Jinsong. It can be said that Xu Jinsong's success today is inseparable from the help of the Shen family. Later, the Shen family had trouble, and the Xu family was not prominent at that time, so they survived. After the Shen family fell into decline and exile, it is said that the connections left by the Shen family were all mastered by Xu Jinsong. Relying on the remaining influence of the Shen family, he gradually rose to power and is now an assistant minister of the Political Affairs Hall!" So there is such a relationship. "Logically speaking, with such a relationship, Shen Buzhi went to Beijing to seek medical treatment, and the Xu family should help, how could they push people away. If this matter is spread out, it will be bad for the reputation of the Xu family." The Xu family was taken care of by the Shen family, and Xu Jinsong benefited from the connections left by the Shen family. A few years later, the descendants of the Shen family came to the door just to seek medical treatment, but they didn't even see him. Typical ungratefulness. Xu Jinsong is a minister of the Political Affairs Hall, and it is too rash to do this. Could it be that the Xu family's doorman took the initiative? However, Shen Buzhi came to ask for a meeting with a token and a letter. Logically, no matter what, whether to help or not, the Xu family should meet him and show their attitude. The doorman directly drove him away. Did he treat Shen Buzhi and his son as the plague god of the autumn wind in the house? Chen Guanlou began to ponder, "Old Mu, do you think Xu Jinsong knew that the Shen family father and son went to Beijing to seek medical treatment?" "What do you think?" Chen Guanlou said slowly: "Shen Buzhi came to ask for an audience. It was still daytime. The men of the Xu family who had jobs were all in the government office. Those who had no jobs, like Xu Lin, must have been hanging out outside. The one who was in charge of the family must be the wife of the housekeeper. Even if the gatekeeper didn't pass the message at the beginning, he should have reported it afterwards. I know a little bit about the rules of this family. A cousin of mine is a gatekeeper in the Marquis's Mansion. He said that there are many people who come to ask for an audience every day, and not everyone will be passed. But everyone who comes must be recorded for later inquiry. If it is an important person, or someone who looks strange, he will report to him on the same day. How to deal with it is all up to the headmaster's instructions." "What you mean is that the wife of the Xu family's housekeeper took the initiative to reject the father and son of the Shen family?" Doctor Mu didn't dare to believe it. Chen Guanlou smiled knowingly, "The Xu family is rich, and there are countless people who come to ask for help every day. If we meet everyone, we will be too busy. Besides, Shen Buzhi came directly to ask for a meeting instead of sending a visiting card in advance, so it is normal for him to be driven away by the doorman. He came from Xizhou, and it is possible that he was forgotten or deliberately covered up. What happened two or three years ago is not far away from now. The old people in the Xu family should still remember what happened back then. When talking about Xizhou, it is not difficult to think of the Shen family. However, the Shen family has already fallen, and even if it can be pardoned, it will take two or three generations of efforts to turn things around. It's all wishful thinking. Two or three generations, that's a few years later, and that's if everything goes well. Tell me, does the Xu family still need to be involved with the Shen family? Do they still need to acknowledge this old friendship? It's better to take this opportunity to cut off contact, and go their separate ways in the future. These scholars are very smart and do things in a roundabout way. The Xu family has made an attitude, how could Shen not guess what the Xu family meant. He has to have face, and from now on, he will definitely not visit the Xu family again. The Xu family cut off the old friendship with the Shen family as they wished, and they didn't have to alarm Xu Jinsong, and they did it quietly. Tsk tsk... The women in the Xu family are really good at calculating. "
