Chapter 303 Killing Chickens (Part 2)(2/2)

"You like to eat, I'll just let you eat enough."

Fu Bi was not angry either. He didn't play chess well, so he lost when he lost. He pushed the chess piece and said, "It seems that people should not be too greedy."

"Originally, being content is always happy, and not being content will make you misfortune forever," Zheng Lang said, looking at the restless young lady of the Wu family, and then said, "With this vulgar person here, I can't stop."

Put the chess piece into the altar.

Fu Bi shook his eyes at the young lady of the Wu family again, and he didn't mean to heart.

Miss Wu couldn't bear it, so she knelt down and said, "Master Zheng, your chess is over."

Fu Bi sighed and said, "You are eager to save your father, and your filial piety is commendable, but you can't hold on like this. Don't serve me. I'm afraid you are not qualified to step in this family."

It was not because he wanted to be a matchmaker, but he was a concubine, and there was no such thing as protecting the media. It was normal for the literati to raise a few concubines. Fu Bi himself also had several concubines and prostitutes. Zheng Lang had nothing except one wife and three concubines. It was very normal for Fu Bi to have this idea.

"Nonsense," Zheng Lang said.

Fu Bi smiled slightly. The little woman actually saw the wonderful use of the chess piece. She also looked like she was the daughter of a young official. After this disaster, Wu Qinan would inevitably be dismissed from office, so she could be Zheng Lang's concubine. So she said, "You need to understand the charm."

"Xian'er, Xing'er, Brother Fu comes here in the future and only gives him water and no tea."

"Here, official," the two women replied in unison.

"So sour, so sour." Fu Bi slapped the air with his hands.

"It's so vulgar," Zheng Lang also slapped the air, but his hands were slapped at Wu Xiaozi and Fu Bi, as if not enough, and said again: "Si'er, bring the piano."

Sier took out the piano and Zheng Lang played the strings. The song was very strange. After playing it for a while, Zheng Lang said, "I don't have the ability to use the Yaoqin to ambush the ten sides. I wonder if the monk from Fahua Mountain in Yuezhou can play it well?"

"That big monk?"

"Yihai, Zhiri's junior brother, heard that he had also accepted a disciple named Zequan, who was another master of the piano player."

"If he hears your playbooks, it's too late to get angry. Do you still expect to invite him to Hangzhou?"

"It's both wrong and wrong. I don't know. If I understand my intention, he will come faster."

"Why?" Si'er asked in confusion.

"I am purifying Buddhism. They are truly eminent monks who escape from the world. Will they see Buddhism become the current light?"

Fu Bi thought about it carefully and found that Yi Hai had never heard of it, but Zhiri had heard of some of the deeds, and it seemed that he was indeed such a person. After thinking about it carefully, the nature of the brothers made him yearn for leisurely.

"Si'er, come and learn the piano."

"Me?" Sier pointed to his nose and said.

"It's you, your mind is simple, and it's easy to clean. I have too many things hidden in my heart. If you want the sound of the piano to be superb, it's probably not possible." Zheng Lang sighed.

"Officials, slaves are very stupid."

"You are not stupid, you are ten times smarter than those greedy people."

Zheng Lang was pulling around, but the young lady of the Wu family was feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles, and she was not sitting or standing.

At this moment, the concierge came in and reported: "Minister Han and Magister Lu detained several people and requested a visit."

"Let them come in."

The people were brought in. In addition to Han Jiang, Lu Gongzhu and more than a dozen yamen runners, there were six people. Four young wives from the Wu family of the Great Han Dynasty did not know them, but there were two of them. One was also a small official in the salt warehouse. He was not an official, but an official. He was appointed to be in charge of the salt warehouse before the commission. There was another person. The young wives of the Wu family had already rushed over and shouted loudly: "Dad."

"Minister of Lu and Magister of Han, let your people loosen their ties."

The yamen runner untied the ropes of the four great men, and Zheng Lang said, "You sit down."

He asked them to sit down and said to Han Jiang and Lu Gongbi: "You guys sit down too."

Several people sat down, and Zheng Lang said, "Minister Han and Magister Lu, have you received a letter from your family?"

"Received." The two of them answered at the same time.

"Have your father said anything?"

Both Han and Lu looked a little unnatural.

"It's normal. They arranged for you to come here for political achievements. I thought I would take care of all parties like in Taipingzhou, and you have the ability, so you will have the political achievements. I originally planned to do it like in Taipingzhou. As for private salt, I know better than you, but I didn't plan to ask about it. I believe Mr. Lu and Mr. Han told you about the reasons. Although before I came to Hangzhou, I saw the salt field of the salt official, just to see the life of the pavilion households. I might give advice to improve some of the miserable people in the pavilion households. The situation is not the other ideas, too deep, and it is not convenient to intervene. It is not a compromise, salt, tea, wine, alum, and the court has specialized in it, the profit is too high, and there are too many people who are moved, so I have no choice but to do it. But it is not a mistake. Once the overseas thing is successful, I will use the stock of the contract to do some constraints. Before this, I will not move. I will go out to patrol, and you will check it, but I have no way to interfere. When I heard you come, I had two worries, afraid that you will not do well, afraid that you will not stand my various practices, and did not think of this aspect." Zheng Lang sighed.

The Song Dynasty system was like this, overlapping layers. The officials below wanted to check private salt. What could he do? Just like how two transshipment officers could stop him?

He also said: "I was wrong, and I should have cut the mess quickly at that time, so I cannot delay it. Many murder cases occurred, but the case could not be settled, and I kept dragging the criminals to prison. I also expressed my feelings, but I dared not publicly say that I would not investigate, which violated the laws of the court, so there will be suspicious people. It happened that two lucky messengers with bad character took office. In fact, I said that people were not good, and I was not good either. I used to study the Spring and Autumn Period and ridiculed the Gong of Zhengzhuang to raise the Communist Party. I didn't expect that one day I would use this strategy..."

Han Jiang said: "Major Zheng, you said it was a matter of stopping the salt..."

"What did I say? I have raised several Gongshu Duan this time. Do you know the Gongshu Duan I mentioned?"

Han Jiang could not make a sound, even if Zheng Lang deliberately stopped the salt, Zheng Lang would not admit it.

Zheng Lang turned his head and looked at the four big men and asked, "What are your names?"

"The little one is called Liu Sanqi."

"The little one is called He Siba."

"The little one is called Qi Jiazheng."

"Little Zou Qing."

"Liu Sanqi, He Siba, Qi Jiazheng, Zou Qing, do you know what rules you have committed?"

Four faces were lying like earth, and said, "Master Zheng, please spare me."

"I don't want you to confess, either. Your confession means little to me."

"Yes, yes," said a few people trembled. Their own people killed people, but before they could kill them, the people who were ambushing came out, which means they were prepared. Zheng Zhuang Gonggong and the others didn't understand, but they probably knew the meaning. It turned out that they had known it a long time ago, and they dug a hole and let the big guys jump down.

"It's a death sentence, but you can survive. Do you want to live?"

“We want to live.”

"Okay, when you go back, tell your Liang Dujian that Wu Qinan and Jie Fangyan will not agree to work together and let you kill them. Of course, you can also notify them of the truth. I am not worried. At worst, I can cut off a few more heads in the future."

"yes."

"Go, move quickly, otherwise they will be suspicious, and I will give you a way out, but they will kill you to silence you."

"Yes, yes," the four of them ran away.

Zheng Lang then looked at Wu Qinan and said, "There is no idea how much salt is in the salt warehouse. You know. You can guess what happened before today. You can't have a lot of peace of mind these days."

Wu Qinan did not answer.

Zheng Lang stroked Yue Shan of the Guqin with playful thoughts and said, "Although you accept bribes, you won't die. There are too many people involved this time. If you make contributions, the court will definitely forgive me."

Then he looked at Mrs. Wu, a woman who was a 10,000 yuan betrothal gift for just one marriage. How much would it be worth to get married? Although she is pretty good, no less than those in the backyard, but if it is really just a betrothal gift, it is worth so much?

Wu Qinan still didn't answer.

"I just met with King Yan Luo, but he hasn't woken you up yet? I understand. I will be transferred sooner or later, but no matter how I investigated in Hangzhou, some people still exist. It is dangerous for you to stay in Hangzhou. Not only are you dangerous, but your family can also be dangerous. Not to mention that the court at most let you exile, but your family can keep you safe. It's wrong, you are the account book of my salt warehouse. If they don't let you go, I will not let you go. I save your life, which is the duty of my official, and I don't want you to thank me. But you continue to be obsessed and refuse to explain. The severity of the case is between the thoughts and turns of my official. At that time, your family still wants to stay in Hangzhou? Your two sons will go to Lingnan, your wife and your daughter will go to brothels. Mrs. Wu, you will not serve me at that time..."

"Sustaining you..." Wu Qinan asked hoarsely.

The night rain outside was getting heavier.
