Yuenu went out to welcome Yu Hongye into the courtyard, but Yu Hongye refused to come to the main hall to meet people. At first, everyone thought she was out of businessmen's habits and the reserve of a woman, so they didn't care much. Later, Yuenu returned to the main hall, and when Xue Shao saw the faint anger on her face, he knew in his heart that something must be wrong when Yu Hongye came in the rain this time.

Yuenu has always been a person who can't hide things in his heart.

Xue Shao did not ask much, and first he had a warm family dinner with his sister-in-law and Yao'er and others, and asked Yuenu to entertain Yu Hongye in the side hall. After the banquet, Xue Shao asked Yuenu to invite Yu Hongye to the study room to talk.

Xue Shao was shocked when he saw Yu Hongye for the first time.

In the past, although Yu Hongye did not say that he was sinking fish, falling geese, and shy flowers, he always looked light and free, friendly and capable, and had a bit of a beautiful woman in the workplace in the 21st century. Today, she looked like a flower in the autumn, with a weak and dry skin and dry eyes, and her eyes were a little hollow, as if she had just had a serious illness, and she also felt like she had suffered a great disaster and had a lifetime after the disaster.

One of her arms was hanging around her neck with a bandage, and she looked a little struggling to walk.

"What's wrong?" Xue Shao stood up and asked in surprise.

"Hongye pays homage to the young master!" Yu Hongye's eyes turned red immediately and she knelt down and she couldn't get up.

"Get up and talk." Xue Shao stepped forward and helped her up in person. Yue Nu quickly helped her get a comfortable chair and helped her sit down.

Yu Hongye covered her face and sobbed, unable to control herself.

Xue Shao frowned and took a deep breath, "Yuenu, you said!"

"It's okay, I'll tell you myself!" Yu Hongye wiped her tears, and her eyes were red and her expression was very stubborn.

Yue Nu nodded silently, "I'll go outside the door to guard."

Xue Shao moved his chair to sit opposite Yu Hongye, and Yuenu went out to cover the door.

"What's going on? Let me listen?" Xue Shao asked calmly.

Yu Hongye nodded, but avoided Xue Shao's eyes, as if he didn't want him to see his embarrassed look, and he slowly spoke up.

About two or three months ago, almost before and after Xue Shao was dealing with the Bingzhou case, Yu Hongye's business in the palace was booming and making a fortune. At this time, something that happened that was big or small, and outsiders knew little. Princess Taiping learned that Xue Shao raised a "outside house" in Bingzhou and sent Yang Sixu to Bingzhou to do business.

Within three days after this incident, the eunuch who had been in charge of the in-house purchasing suddenly told Yu Hongye that he would no longer cooperate with her and did not give any reason. Yu Hongye was surprised, but he could do nothing. After all, Xue Shao was not in Chang'an, and the matter in the palace was not something that she, a businesswoman, could not interfere or bargain. In desperation, Yu Hongye had to temporarily end the palace business and prepare to transfer more sources of goods to the di store for wholesale sales.

As a result, the landlord owner whom Yu Hongye rented came with the county officials who managed the business shop and wanted to take back the shop. The landlord not only tore up the previous contract, but also denies that Yu Hongye had owed half a year of rent but failed to pay, and the business shop officials were helping each other. How could Yu Hongye resist it?

On that day, Yu Hongye swallowed his anger and paid an extra rent and fine, and was forced to give up the two previously rented residences. The hundreds of workers and a large amount of goods in the workshop were all piled up in a small residence in her house, and they could not be stretched out at all.

In desperation, Yu Hongye had no choice but to transfer the workshop to Lantian County - the former former residence of Xue Shao.

It turned out that after Yu Hongye took over Xue Shao's former residence, she might have wanted to sell it at a better price in the future because of her business acumen, or for other reasons, she actually did not resell Xue Shao's former residence immediately.

The social status of merchants in the Tang Dynasty was not high, and it was common for them to be suppressed by their peers. Yu Hongye had experienced these more than once, and they didn't care much. Originally, it was fine if they took a step back and arrived in Lantian County. Unexpectedly, just a few days after the workshop was moved, a local gentry known as "Zheng Kunlun" ran to Yu Hongye's home and threatened to acquire the house.

Of course, Yu Hongye refused to sell it, so he politely refused. Unexpectedly, Zheng Kunlun threw down a box of silk and left, claiming that he would come to collect the house three days later.

Xue Shao's former residence is very active and generous, so how could it be bought with a box of silk? Zheng Kunlun's behavior is not just forcing a forced sale, it is simply no different from robbery. Therefore, Yu Hongye sued the government in anger, and the government also took the paper, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea without any response.

Three days later, Zheng Kunlun, with dozens of market hooligans and village spoilers known as "Ranking Heroes", ran to Yu Hongye's door to collect the house. Yu Hongye brought the workers to stop him. Zheng Kunlun shouted, and the hooligans began to beat people!

In the chaos, Yu Hongye and his female fans were beaten to death and were seriously injured and fainted. There were countless other injured workers and friends who were injured and even disabled. Zheng Kunlun asked these hooligans to force the rogues to drag Yu Hongye and others out of the house, and fired Xue Shao's former residence to white ground!

That's not all. When the fire broke out, people from Lantian County rushed over. Zheng Kunlun bit back and said that Yu Hongye violated the contract and blackmailed the matter and set fire to commit crimes. Yu Hongye and more than 30 people were dragged into the prison for more than a month, and each of them ate a lot of whipping and punishment!

It was not until three days ago, just before Xue Shao was about to return to Chang'an that Yu Hongye and her men were released, and several workers were tortured and disabled in prison. If Yu Hongye had not made some good friends before, and had heard that she had spent money to manage her hard after she was imprisoned, it would be unknown what kind of inhuman torture Yu Hongye would suffer in prison and whether she could come out alive!

Listening to Yu Hongye talking about these things, Xue Shao felt that the anger in his heart was rising, and gradually became a prairie fire, as uncontrollable as a volcano eruption!

But what Yu Hongye saw was Xue Shao still smiling and whispering to her.

After hearing her say, Xue Shao said only, "I'm back, leave everything to me."

Ten words made Yu Hongye feel that the dark world had completely collapsed in her heart, and a glimmer of hope reappeared. She was like a man who was falling into the water floating in the flood, and Muran saw a solid ship coming to rescue her.

Yu Hongye could no longer suppress herself and cried bitterly.

Xue Shao felt a little bit self-blame because he knew that Yu Hongye was subjected to these suppression and torture, in addition to commercial competition, it was more because his political enemies were executing the debts on the outside. Yu Hongye was a diligent businessman. If he hadn't led her to start the palace business and had something to do with the official side, how could she suffer such an unrestrained disaster?

Xue Shao walked to Yu Hongye and patted her shoulder gently, comforting her softly, "Don't think about anything, take care of yourself first."

"Young Master, Hong Ye is incompetent! In order to save those guys who are trapped in prison, treat them with injuries and illnesses and settle down afterwards, I lost all the money I made in the past, and even the residence handed down by my father was sold at a low price!" Yu Hongye's long-suppressed emotions were poured out like a flood opened. He cried and said, "Hong Ye is sorry to you! Not only did I not earn a penny for the young master, I also caused so many disasters to you!"

After saying that, Yu Hongye knelt on the ground and kowtowed in tears.

"stand up!"

Xue Shao used some strength to force Yu Hongye to pull him up from the ground and stood up straight. Looking at her red and tearful eyes, Xue Shao still smiled and said softly: "The money is gone, you can make money. As long as the person is still there, it's enough!"

Yu Hongye could no longer control herself and threw herself into Xue Shao's arms and cried bitterly.

Xue Shao hugged her and patted her back and comforted her softly.

But inside, it is like a volcano erupting, destroying the world!

...

That night, there were still storms and rains. The originally peaceful and slow water of Qujiang also rushes and roars, just like the angry heart of a warrior under Xue Shao's Anning appearance.

A fast horse rushed towards the wind and rain and rushed into Xue's mansion. The visitor threw off his hat and couldn't change his clothes, and entered Xue Shao's study with water dripping all over his body.

"Young Master Xue is eager to call me, what's the point?"

The person who came, the inspector of the censor Wei Yuanzhong!

"Brother Wei is here so quickly, thank you for your hard work!" Xue Shao said hurriedly, "Please change your clothes first and sit for a while!"

Wei Yuanzhong didn't ask much, and the servant took him to change his clothes.

But after a moment, another donkey cart staggered, and a rich fat man climbed down from the donkey cart, and rushed into Xue Shao's study, and fell down head-on.

"The villain comes late, the young master forgives his sins!"

The person who came was the eunuch of the imperial palace, Zhu Bajie, and the eunuch of the provincial verses.

"You are so stupid, you are really tired of living!" Xue Shao shouted angrily.

Zhu Bajie was so scared that he was covered in sieve. "Young Master, please spare my life, the villain doesn't know... why did you offend the young master?"

"I'll ask you first, come to me, Princess Taiping knows?" Xue Shao asked in a deep voice.

"Young master secretly summoned him, but the villain did not dare to disturb anyone, but just quietly drove the donkey cart out of the palace!" Zhu Bajie replied in panic.

"Then you can get up and reply!" Xue Shao's voice was still sharp.

"The villain dares not!"

"stand up!"

Zhu Bajie hurriedly got up, his face a little white, stood beside him with his hands hanging down with fear.

Xue Shao walked to him and said in a deep voice: "I'll ask you first, what's going on with Yu Hongye's business in the palace?"

When Zhu Bajie heard this, he cried in grievance and depression on the spot and said, "Young Master Mingjian, the villain is also having a headache about this!"

"how?"

Zhu Bajie quickly replied: "Previously, the villain was ordered to go on a mission to Bingzhou, someone in the palace cut off Yu Hongye's business. If the real person doesn't tell lies, it not only cut off the wealth of the young master, but also cut off the wealth of the villain! What's more important is that it is clearly slapping people in public! It doesn't matter if the villain is rough and rough, but the noble prince Tianchun..."

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and say it!" Xue Shao was a little impatient.

In the past, Xue Shao always looked at the people around Princess Taiping, but today he was angry and even had a bit of murderous aura, which made Zhu Bajie shudder suddenly. He quickly made a simple sentence—

"Everything is the back command of Wu Youning, a servant of the Secretariat!... The villain, his arm can't twist his thighs!"

"It's him again!" Xue Shao took a deep breath and let out a long sigh.
