But now even Lin Ruhai treats him like this...

Lin Ruhai is a rare figure in their eyes.

It can be seen from this that this son of the Jia family should be extraordinary...

Mei Zhen was suspicious, and after carefully examining Jia Qiang a few times, she said slowly: "Mei Zhen is at Xiamei's house, and today I came to pay a visit to Lord Lin of Yanyuan."

When Jia Qiang heard this, she nodded without waiting for him to introduce others, and said straight to the point: "But for Mei Xun, Mei Zhu, Mei Jiu and other Mei family?"

Mei Zhen nodded and said, "Exactly."

Jia Qiang waved her hand and said, "Master Mei, I think there is one thing, maybe you have misunderstood. The disposal of the Mei family and the Feng family in Yangzhou is a decree issued by the new governor of Liangjiang, Mr. Han Bin Banshan. Take ten thousand steps back, the collapse of the Feng family may be with you." I have something to do with it. Because the Qinghe Gang, a labor of the Feng family, blackmailed me, but the Mei family...although there were some small conflicts, but the small conflicts have nothing to do with the law of the country. Maybe he ransacked the Mei family because he was angry with me as a young man. Moreover, when Ban Shangong ordered the raid of the Mei family, my husband once begged for mercy. After all, there was a Mr. Fu Weng in the Mei family. It’s just..."

At this point, Jia Qiang shook her head and said, "How could Ban Shangong's first fire in the south of the Yangtze River be shaken because of someone's pleading?"

Mei Zhen's expression turned ugly when she heard the words, and she said in a deep voice, "What crime did the Mei family commit? Mei Jiu, Mei Zhu and others are guilty, but my aunt is seventy years old, so what's wrong with the family members? "

Jia Qiang raised her brows slightly, and reminded: "Master Mei doesn't know about the Mei family's salt business? Selling illegal salt is a serious crime. The Mei family sells illegal salt, and there are all evidences of the crime. Master Mei was born in the Imperial Academy, how could he be blamed for this?" to me?"

Mei Zhen's face was gloomy when she heard the words, and it was difficult to speak again for a while.

His son, Mei Huai, almost burst into anger. Mei Huai is the direct son of Mei Zhen, and he is also a man of great influence in Suzhou Mansion.

But such a proud son like him, but he watched a bullshit and sycophant who was younger than him and didn't even have any fame, talking nonsense in front of his father.

Seeing that Mei Zhen was questioned by this despicable person, Mei Huai couldn't suppress her furious anger no matter how hard she asked, "Could it be that my Mei family is the only one doing this in Yangzhou Prefecture? Lin Ruhai, as the censor of the Salt Academy, doesn't he know the truth? "

"What truth?"

Jia Qiang frowned and asked in a deep voice.

Before Mei Zhen and Xue Ming reacted to stop them, Mei Huai blurted out: "The truth is, among the eight major salt merchants in Yangzhou Prefecture, which one does not sell private salt? Lin Ruhai and Han Bin are also from serious disciplines, and they act so despicably... "

"shut up!!"

Mei Zhen's face turned blue and she stopped her son's words, Xue Ming also scolded angrily: "What the hell are you talking about?"

With her hands behind her back, Jia Qiang walked slowly to Mei Huai, looked at him and said softly: "You are just a junior, dare to call my teacher and half monkey by their first names, I just think you are uneducated and not as knowledgeable as you. But you said...the eight major salt merchants in Yangzhou all smuggled salt, so they reported it directly to the Yamen of the Salt Court. I, who is not even a student, how can I control this matter?"

Having said this, he shouted in a deep voice, "Come on!"

Yan Ding, who waited at the door, entered and said, "Here!"

Jia Qiang said: "Take this important witness down, so that he can protect him so that there is no chance of any mistakes. Also, please come quickly, Mr. Chen, the censor."

"Here!"

Chapter 191 No room left (Dawei Tianlong, subscribe and fly!)

Jia Qiang's sudden change of face was beyond everyone's expectation.

After all, both the Mei family and the Xue family came to visit as families of in-laws.

The Mei family is related to the Xue family, the Xue family is related to the Jia family, and Lin Ruhai is the uncle of the Lin family...

With such a relationship, even if there were some quarrels, it wouldn't be so decisive, right?

They didn't know that Jia Qiang was a ruthless person in the Jia family, not to mention the so-called relatives who were crooked.

Things have come to this point, Lin Ruhai and the Mei family, as well as Jia Qiang and the Mei family, have no friendship at all.

That being the case, if you don't take the opportunity to defeat the Mei family, should you wait for the Mei family to recover before dealing with them?

Of course, he would not do it himself, nor would he suggest that Lin Ruhai do it himself, as long as the Mei family and his son were dragged into the water, someone would repay them.

It is true that the Hanlins of the Hanlin Academy all have the name of prime minister, but why are there not many who really become masters in the end?

It is because most Hanlin will not go smoothly on the road to rise, and most of them will be sniped...

Just like what Jia Qiang did at this moment.

"How courageous! Wait, is this going to completely tear the face off?"

Seeing two strong Yan Ding approaching, wanting to "protect" Mei Huai, Mei Zhen was furious, she slapped the table and got up and scolded angrily.

Jia Qiang's complexion remained unchanged, she looked at Mei Zhen and said indifferently: "Master Mei, if I am the only one who can make the decision, then if you come here and want to use your relatives for personal gain, maybe I will admit it. After all, I am just a small person. But you Don't think about it, my teacher Lin Yanyuan, and Ban Shan Gong Han, the governor, which one of them is not a minister of the country? For the sake of the country, for the country, for the sake of hundreds of millions of people, Ban Shan Gong traveled to the bitter cold frontier for 28 years. Famous in the world, there is also my husband, a fourth-generation marquis, a former Tang Hualang, what a noble background, just because he devoted himself to sharing the worries of his father, he was stationed in Yangzhou for thirteen years. , almost serve the country with their own bodies, but never complained.

For such a minister of the country, you, a noble official from the Imperial Academy, shouldn't come to intercede at all.This in itself is an insult to my husband.Now, in order to make up for you, I let your son take advantage of the opportunity to make meritorious service, do you actually think this is tearing your face? "

Mei Zhen now fully recognized the black-bellied face of the young man in front of her, and without a trace of luck in her heart, she cupped her hands and said, "It's my fault, this matter, I will impeach myself and ask the imperial court to deal with it. Please also, Your Excellency, release the ignorant dog back."

Jia Qiang narrowed her eyes, and said with a chuckle, "If I do this, am I worthy of my teacher's instruction? Mr. Mei, please go back, Mr. Ling is a meritorious minister. , I will ask him personally, and then release him.”

Mei Zhen's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and she looked at Jia Qiang with knife-like eyes, gritted her teeth and said, "When will Lin Yan Yuan recover?"

Jia Qiang knew that the other party was afraid that he would be hacked into pieces, but she didn't care. Instead, she said solemnly, "According to the imperial doctor, at the latest, it's only a month. It will always be better a year ago."

Mei Zhen took a deep breath, nodded and said: "Okay, then I will wait for the Yanyuan Yamen to release him in a month's time!"

He made up his mind that when Mei Huai came back, he would immediately write to Zhu Tongnian, his disciples, friends, tutors, Fang Shi, and everyone else he could connect with, to initiate the impeachment of Lin Ruhai and Han Bin.

Whether he can succeed is one thing, he has to show his attitude, lest these two people use Mei Huai's words as a cover to attack the salt merchants.

If so, the Mei family will become the target of the giants behind countless salt merchants.

As for this month...

Mei Zhen didn't believe it, but when Han Bin had returned to Jinling and Lin Ruhai was half dead, the Yamen of the Salt Court dared to take action against the eight major salt merchants.

That old fox of the Qi family will not agree either!

After Mei Zhen gave Jia Qiang a cold look, she said to Xue Ming, "Brother Junli, since Mr. Lin of Yanyuan is a great man, and his relatives don't recognize him, let's say goodbye first."

Before Xue Ming could speak, Jia Qiang chuckled and said, "It's impossible to talk about six relatives who don't recognize each other. As long as they don't come to the door out of selfishness, my teacher and I are still willing to entertain them, such as Second Uncle Xue."

Xue Ming's complexion changed slightly when he heard this, and under Mei Zhen's knife-like eyes, he coughed dryly twice, and said with a chuckle: "I'd better forget it..."

Before she finished speaking, Jia Qiang raised her eyebrows and said, "Second Uncle Xue, your nephew Xue Pan and Xue Wenlong are in the Yamen right now, and he suffered some minor injuries, Second Uncle Xue, don't you want to see him?"

Xue Ming was stunned when he heard the words, he didn't expect Xue Pan to be here.

Seeing Xue Ming's expression, Mei Zhen knew that he was being targeted today, so she snorted coldly, flung her sleeves, turned and left.
