    There is a person in the world who is willing to go through fire and water for you, which may be the good karma planted in the previous life and the good results in this life.  [ ][Almost all. It is more stable and updates faster than ordinary websites. It is full text and has no ads.  ]

    ¡°I have seen too many cases of couples falling apart when disaster strikes. It may be because there is no affection between husband and wife. When one of the spouses is in trouble, the other spouse either stands by and watches, or sells off their property, and has already made plans for their own future.  Songyin is lucky, she has noble people to help her. At this stage, she and Rongshi are very flexible to each other.  If something really went wrong in the Tong family, he could just sit around and watch for a while and then disperse in silence. There was no need to bother trying to find anyone.  He is not afraid of trouble, which is also a valuable thing about him.  Songyin admired the way he helped her without asking for credit or even asking her to be present.

    There are two people, one of them sings a high-key tune and wants you to be your mistress, and at the same time forces you and creates a lot of trouble for you; the other one is real, I will marry you, no one else.  I will protect you if you encounter a storm, and I can stay with you quietly when you are busy.  Comparing the two, as a smart-minded and well-organized person, who would you choose?  Songyin accepted his Tongxin Jade without any regrets.  She also hated the person who stole the treasure. If she had a chance to catch him, she would be flayed and cramped without relief.  Now that he said he would do it for her, she suddenly felt a sense of relief, the kind of relief that filled her body and soul, and she no longer felt the tension in her heart.  He is like a big tree. You can enjoy the shade by leaning against it.

    She did not wait until the next day to file the report. She and Amma decided that delaying the report was not the solution, so they had to report it back.  There must be a conclusion to this matter in the end. Black is black and white is white. Since there is no such money in the treasury and I dare not put it in, I can only repay it according to the truth.

    The emperor had known about the situation for a long time, and the accounts could not be reconciled. The people closest to him took turns to intercede, and he always had to save some face.  So he reprimanded and ordered a strict investigation to dig out the thief.

    When Shuming exited the Yangxin Hall, his legs were shaking. He stretched out his hand and said, "My dear girl, please be greedy for me."

    Songyin hurriedly supported her and fanned her Ama, "Are you going to have a seizure? I'll call the imperial doctor."

    Shu Ming shook his head, "If I really wanted to, I would have given it up right away. Why wait until now!" He swallowed hard and pointed with a finger, "Next time we open the warehouse, it will be either you or me. One must."  You have to be there. We can't let the people below do it. Look, how scary it is! Fortunately, Lu Run and Rong Shi are here, otherwise we would not be able to escape this time."

    Songyin said yes, "We will thank them later and invite them to our house for dinner."

    Shu Ming thought for a moment, "It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there's chaos again. Let's wait until the day is over, and let's take a breather. When the time comes, we'll call a table and bring it to our house, so we can entertain people well."

    Songyin responded, turned around and took a look, and could see the scene inside through the glass of Dongnuan Pavilion.  The emperor was approving papers on the south kang. In front of the kang, Lu Run was holding his sleeves and studying ink. He happened to raise his eyes, his eyes met hers, and he smiled faintly.

    His existence is gentle and silent. Songyin sometimes feels that he is not like a human being in the world, but should be a god or something. He has gone through tribulations in the mortal world, otherwise he would be so clear and tragic.  It's a pity that it is incomplete and gives the emperor an advantage. Otherwise, it would be great to marry a wife, have children and live a normal life!

    In fact, her Ama is also a sweet-hearted person. Seeing that she couldn't help but look back, she said sadly: "Everyone has one life. It's not a good fortune. If you are sent to a poor family, you will have suffered all the hardships in the world. In the end, you may not be able to get rid of all the hardships."  .¡±

    She trembled in her heart, "He is the Emperor's confidant, and the Emperor will protect him."

    Shu Ming glanced at her and said, "What are you thinking? He can protect you for a while, but he can't protect him forever. To the emperor, he is just a eunuch in his prime. When he gets older, he will be old and have no children and no one to rely on.  Even though his teeth have fallen out, he still has to kowtow to beg his master, bring him foot-washing water, and pour it out for someone in the official position pitiful person."

    He spoke so vividly, as if he was right in front of his eyes, which made Songyin sigh.  I can't imagine what it will be like then. I had a great time when I was young, but when I get old, twilight and the end are coming one after another, which really ruins the beauty now.

    "One day I will take him home and provide for him so that he will have enough food and clothing." She said to herself, "He has helped me several times. I am grateful for his kindness."

    Shu Ming grinned and said, "It's up to you. From now on, you will be your own family, and you will have the final say in your love. Rongshi is an honest boss, and he looks shrewd. He will be a model of henpecking in the future."

    Songyin was ashamed, put down his hand and said, "I won't help you anymore, you can go alone!" He went back and asked Su La to move the filed files and send them to the Criminal Punishment Department.

    The eunuchs in the Shenxing Department are all extremely vicious and have evil looks in their eyes. However, when they meet their superiors, their faces are full of flowers and they keep saying "You have to worry about it, you will suffer".  Download the full set [fast updates, clean website pages, few ads, I like this kind of website the most, be sure to praise it]

    ?She handed all the necessary things to the eunuch in charge, "The chief eunuch has been very busy recently, and he has to prepare for the tour to the West Mountain. I will follow you here. Someone has already sent an oral message to the guards. Wait a moment.  , the trial will begin when everyone arrives.¡±

    Chen Liutong responded, looked at her, and smiled hesitantly, "Young manager, you haven't been involved in a case before, have you? We are not polite when interrogating people here. Don't scare you later."

    She doesn¡¯t mind others treating her like a woman. Since she is worthy, she wants to establish her authority and does not need gender-based preferential treatment.  She glanced at him and said, "I don't want you to be polite. I'll interrogate him severely. I'll find him before midnight today. I'm anxious to get Long Live Master back."

    "Yes." Chen Liutong shouted, "Just hold on! We still have a guard office, and Commander Rong's means are there. Even a stone bodhisattva needs to be made to speak."

    Songyin nodded, thinking of that reckless man. It might be true that he was powerful, but it was hard for her to imagine. Anyway, he was always smiling every time she saw him, and it didn't make people feel scary.

    When he came, he was full of heat, his temples were covered with sweat, and his face was as white as translucent.  After entering the door, he took off his hat and threw it to the eunuch aside. When he saw her, he was startled for a moment. He raised his hand to wipe his sweat and asked, "Why is it you? Didn't I let you come?"

    She folded her hands and said, "My mother has other things to worry about, so I won't bother him here." She turned around and motioned for him to look at the account book, "Three times to open the warehouse, from access control to unlocking and recording, everything is covered.  I counted in advance and found that there are two counselors, twelve guards, and twenty-six Kudin, who have all been sent to await trial and are in the back room. Sir, let's see when it starts and press everyone in."

    He frowned slightly, Master Rong sounded really alienated, but in front of others, he always had to pretend.  What worried him was that she was here, and he was afraid of giving her a bad impression.  The Shenxing Department has never been a warm place. If a eunuch or a maid commits a crime and is brought here, she will basically never come back.  In the past few years, he had been responsible for several thefts. The palace was very strict in punishing such things. Although she was not a young woman, she was still a girl, so it seemed not good to be there.

    He glanced towards the ear room and said, "Master Tong, please have a rest first. I will take someone to the back to interrogate you. I will get back to you after the interrogation."

    Song Yin looked at his expression. He had a solemn look on his face, and his body was as straight as a pine tree, but he had an air of awe.  This time he didn't negotiate with her, he changed his tone to give instructions.  He was from the second rank, and she was only from the fourth rank. In terms of position, she really had to listen to his orders.

    She had no choice but nodded, "Okay, I'll wait in the wing. I'll take care of everything, Sir."

    He turned around and walked out, neat and capable.  The spring knife embroidered on the waist and the seven things hit each other, making a jingling sound.

    Songyin did not follow him to surround the room, but sat down peacefully.  The little eunuch served her tea, and two plates of iced fruit were placed in front of her. She sat under the window and waited quietly. Occasionally she heard stern scoldings coming from behind. Every brick and column in this place had a gloomy air, and she didn't feel hot.  , there will be an inexplicable chill in my heart.

    ¡°In fact, this kind of case seems to have no clue, and it is not difficult to try it.  It is to build momentum, create an atmosphere of terror, and require everyone to explain their whereabouts clearly. If the previous and the next are not consistent, then this person is suspicious.  But before reaching the end of the road, everyone was taking chances, and no one would readily confess.  Songyin waited until Haishi from time to time, but the situation made no progress.  She felt a little anxious, so she got up and went back.  In fact, there is no prison in the Shenxing Department. The row of enclosed rooms at the back are used for torture and detention. When you step into the corridor, you feel that the evil atmosphere is very heavy.

    The white gauze lantern hung under the eaves, illuminating the paper mullioned window. She couldn't see the scene inside, so she climbed up the steps and looked inside.  A round of punishment had already been carried out. Two young Kudins were lying on the bench, their buttocks were beaten to pieces.  When the eunuch was beaten, he had to loudly beg for mercy, unlike the palace maid who was not allowed to say anything. At first, he screamed like a slaughtered pig, but later he became weak and continued to moan.

    Rong Shi didn't notice her coming, he was fully focused on the case, and shouted in a deep voice, "Howl your mother is mourning! This is an appetizer, I won't explain it, and you will benefit from it. Being strict is a good thing, but you have to look at it.  When is it? Your life is almost gone, but you still insist on loyalty. The one stab at the bottom does not count, but you also want to make up for it with a stab at the top? "

    Those who were being tortured couldn¡¯t stop crying out, killing chickens to scare the monkeys, while those who were watching turned pale with fear.  Now that we have started, we have to finish the trick to the end. Those two eunuchs were rough-skinned and thick-skinned. They thought they would get over with a slap in the face. How can it be so easy?  He gave an order, and the guards lifted the person up. There were shackles on the four corners of the huge torture rack. They tied up the limbs and stretched them into a large shape.  He took the whip skillfully, dipped it in the salt water, raised his hand and whipped it.  Just listen to the roar of hunting, the whip comes into contact with the flesh, and wherever it touches, it feels like a sharp blade has cut it, and the wound is almost deep into the bone marrow.  Nakudin screamed heartbreakingly, and the white incision quickly gushed out blood drops, and then it seemed like it was broken, and drops fell on the skin underneath him.On blue bricks.

    Songyin's heart skipped a beat, and then she realized that the whip was specially made, with each twist section inlaid with thin wire, and its power was extraordinary.  She felt strange that Rong Zhen at this moment was different from her impression. He was the commander of the imperial army and had no emotions.  He is in charge of the police and defense of the Forbidden City. As long as he feels suspicious, he has enough power to control people's life and death.

    Those two Kudins can make a big fuss because they explained their whereabouts too fluently and no one confirmed them.  It didn¡¯t matter if he didn¡¯t admit it after the whipping. He threw the whip and threw his hands, ¡°Pass the tin snake!¡±

    Tin Snake is a form of torture in which a hollow tin tube is placed around the prisoner's body and boiling water is poured into the tube.  The openings at both ends of the tin tube are different in size, the upper one is larger and the lower one is smaller.  If you continue to pour water and drain it slowly, it will inevitably overflow from the mouth at the top and pour all over your body.  This is a very cruel punishment. After one round, when the tin snake is released, its skin and flesh will stick to the tin pipe and be taken down with it. It is equivalent to skinning it alive, and even gods can't save it.

    Songyin was frightened. She had only heard about it before, but had never seen it before. When she saw the guards actually bringing in torture instruments, she couldn't even stand.  No wonder he asked her to stay away and wait for news in the front office. Only then did she realize that he was not as simple and harmless as she thought.  If a person who has been naughty since childhood enters a stick-sticking place and does not learn the good skills of teasing people, it is simply unworthy of his talent.  What's going on now? He's standing up for her and helping her.  But she was still afraid, trembling and unable to resist.

    She was afraid, and of course those on trial were also afraid, and she finally cried out in a tearful voice, "Sir, please spare my life, my lord, please spare my life It was the little ones who did it, it was all the little ones who did it"

    Songyin was agitated and her mind came to her senses. Sometimes such methods are indeed needed. Eunuchs endure humiliation and bear the burden, and simple punishments will not work for them.  Only by being ruthless and beating them until they are afraid can you get the truth out of their mouths.

    She let out a long breath and lowered her hands under the eaves.  I wanted to hear the follow-up, but Rong Shi's approach was very strange, and the rest of the people dismissed him like that.  Then I heard him chuckle, "I did it earlier, and I won't suffer the pain of flesh and blood." He called the eunuch next to him to put him down. The two Kudins had turned into bloody gourds and fell to the ground like a puddle of mud.  He raised his chin to the two leaders of the guards who were close to him, "I'll leave the rest to you. Make sure to find out the whereabouts of the stolen money so that you can report it to Lord Long Live."

    The two class leaders responded and he turned around and came out.  He lowered his head and looked at his clothes, and found that there were blood stains on his body, and the moon-white traces were printed on them, which was very dazzling.  He smacked his lips in annoyance and took out the sweat towel to wipe it. Fortunately, the silk was not so absorbent, so after wiping it a little, only a faint trace remained.

    He suddenly looked up and found that she was outside. He was a little panicked, "Why are you here? Why are you disobedient!"

    Songyin grinned awkwardly, "I was waiting in a hurry at the front and wanted to go to the back to have a lookHave you finished the review? Where is the whereabouts of the things?"

    He said: "The whereabouts will be there. The eunuchs carry things like mice carrying food, pouring things here and there. If they are all in the palace, they can be found at once, but if they are transported out of the palace, they will be chased.  It takes a lot of effort to get up."

    She nodded, raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and said sarcastically: "I'm watching from the front, I'm worried that I'll give in."

    He didn¡¯t say anything. In fact, she had guessed that he had indeed surrendered. Those things were not stolen by Kudin at all.

    He met the emperor before, and his holy intention was obvious, and he did have the intention to remove Tong Jia.  Why is Curry missing something?  He had long thought that the people below were not so courageous, and only the emperor's instructions deliberately created such a trap for them to escape.  She went to beg Lu Run. Was Lu Run clean?  He announced the decree and followed him in and out of the Guangzhou Division. When something happened, no one dared to call him for trial. Therefore, he may not have been unaware of the emperor's intentions. However, he changed his mind temporarily for unknown reasons and handed the case over to Shen Xing.  Division investigates and handles.

    It is almost impossible to find the stolen goods in the investigation of the Criminal Punishment Department.  Will the emperor admit that he stole the treasury?  Where is the majesty of the emperor?  So I appointed him to be the assistant manager, knowing that he was clever and could make something out of nothing.  So the two unlucky Kudin held the vat, and the blame fell on them.  Next, we have to find a way to solve the shortfall. The emperor is also interesting. No matter who among them pays the money, he will definitely make a profit.  To be an emperor to this extent is really impressive.

    But he couldn¡¯t tell her this. What if she had a grudge and turned against Prince Yu?  He must guard against becoming a human being inside and out.  As for money, he has a private house. In addition to one thousand two hundred taels in cash, assorted cat's eyes and tourmalines, it is enough to have three to five thousand taels in total.

    "It's not easy to find a housewife. It's such a huge undertaking. You can't tell it, you have to hide it from everyone."  He felt that since the emperor could give up this great opportunity, Tong Jia's family should be safe for a long time to come.  If you cheat someone, you still need others.Be grateful, this is the emperor's wishful thinking.  He was waiting for Songyin and his daughter to show their loyalty to the emperor, so Songyin couldn't have any emotions. If he accidentally got it on his face, he would arouse the emperor's suspicion again.

    He could only tell her earnestly, "The emperor must tell you what he said. Thank you master for your forgiveness. If he insists, the Tong family will at least be demoted this time."

    She hummed, because she didn't know so much inside information, she was very relaxed, even walking with wind in her eyes, she smiled and said: "I'll remember it, I'll see you after the court tomorrow, regardless of whether the things can be recovered, first of all  I'll tell you later. I just thought, if you can, I'll chase you. If there's anything missing, I'll make up for it here, so as not to cause trouble to the master again."

    He waved his arms and said no need in a casual manner, "I know it in my heart and can get it back."

    He and she were walking along the aisle, with the eunuch in front leading the way. The angry wind flickered, illuminating the square tiles on their toes.  Without the burden on her shoulders, Songyin felt like she could barely breathe.  Turning to look at him, he smiled again and glanced at her gently, "Why do you always look at me? Are you looking at me so handsome that you can't take your eyes away?"

    Songyin smiled, "I just want to thank you, you always help me, time and time again."

    "It's good that you know. I've been punished for such a gentle temper. You have to thank me." After saying this, she remembered to remind her, "Don't forget the banquet I mentioned. Wait until I come back from Xishan."  , let¡¯s go together!¡±

    She thought for a moment and said, "My mother and I have agreed to host a banquet at home and invite you and Lu Run to be our guests."

    He twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Is it Lu Run again? It's your choice. It's different for me and you to sit alone. It's just the two of us."

    Songyin was a little embarrassed and pointed at the eunuch holding a lamp in front of him, telling him to be careful and not expose himself in front of others.

    He grinned and said, "Zuan'er, what did Master Tong and I just say?"

    The little eunuch named Quan'er replied respectfully, "I have been deaf for three years and haven't heard anything."

    Songyin laughed. Since he was deaf, he answered immediately when his name was called, which showed that he was not completely deaf.

    He didn¡¯t take it seriously and raised his eyebrows proudly, saying there was no need to worry.  This little eunuch was Sulla, who was dedicated to serving him in the duty room. He was a very reliable child. Even if his master had a few words of personal affection for his sweetheart, he would not dare to publicize it everywhere because of his courage.

    "Then it's settled. I'll try to find a way to switch classes with someone when I get back. When you take a break one day, we can go out together." He said in his mouth, reaching out to hold her hand in the darkness, hooking his little finger like a  It's like an oath was made.

    Song Yin¡¯s face remained calm, but there was a fire in her heart, which was getting stronger and stronger.  In the past, when he held her hand, she just went with the flow, but this time she gave him a little response and held him tightly. He noticed it, and his eyes sparkled with joy.  I thought it was not unfair to use money to fill the emperor's holes. Looking at the current situation, can Prince Yu still compare with him?  Not even one of his toes can compare!  He spent more thought on her than he did, and he treated her more sincerely than he did.  Songyin is a pragmatic and good girl, she knows what is good and who is more suitable for her.

    Songyin, seeing how cruel and ruthless he was just now, felt a little weak at the time, but afterwards she felt it was nothing.  She was an official in the imperial court. If she saw something dark, she would be frightened, like a delicate flower, and she would not be able to survive at all.  If you don¡¯t talk about others, let¡¯s talk about her, Ama, and she will use means when necessary. Otherwise, how can she sit firmly on the Diaoyutai!  Many people are jealous of the work in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is a cornucopia. The Tong family has been working there for more than eighty years.  The emperor has six private treasury. Although the Tong family is not as good as them, they are not far behind. If they were not able to turn the tide, they would have been dragged down eight hundred years ago.

    "It will be the fifteenth day in two days. This time the banquet will be held in the Old Summer Palace. We have to take care of it there. The palace can't be careless and spread the word. I don't know if I can spare the time." She said a little apologetically, "If I can  Okay, I'll find a way to send you a message. If it doesn't work, just wait until after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Anyway, it has already been postponed, so it shouldn't be a big deal if it's delayed for two more days."

    He is also cheerful and does not care about this moment. He has plenty of time to be alone.  Looking at her through the lantern light, her dignified and beautiful face exuded a sense of righteousness.  He liked her from the bottom of his heart. Sometimes, he thought that just holding her hand wasn't enough, and wanted to hug her.  I almost took action twice, but I was a little afraid of her and afraid that she would slap her, so I gave up
