Don't move, this child bride is not easy to mess with.
Chapter 249: Play hard to get
Xie Chengan had a huge headache, and Jiang Ruiyan said nothing.
Now they all understand that the biggest cancer in Anlan County is the official Guo Xuan who is far above the court.
As long as this person is brought down, the top ten squires in Anlan County will be nothing more than paper tigers. I am afraid that Zhao Jingzi, a former member of the Qianhu family, also hindered this person from making money, and his future was blocked.
But is this big tiger like Guo Xuan easy to fight?
In this case, Tong Ju and Wang Zhixian may have some evidence about Guo Xuan and want to report it to the capital.
For example, the account books of buying and selling officials, the gold and silver books that were escorted to the capital every time, or other records.
Xie and Jiang didn't know that the batch of gold three months ago was now in Su Mulan's hands.
"Brother, I want to see Mulan." Xie Chengan pondered for a while, his eyes a little lonely.
"Now that the situation between us and the enemy is clear, and these government officials have been organized by us, it's okay for you to change into civilian clothes and go." Jiang Ruiyan agreed, knowing the pain he had been going through these days.
"Since you said it's okay, then I'll go see her." Xie Chengan said with a smile on his face after hearing Jiang Ruiyan's support.
"Go ahead, Miss Su is very knowledgeable. You can also tell her about the current situation in the county government and ask her for advice." Jiang Ruiyan said with a smile.
Xie Chengan agreed again and again, so he called Qing Niu and asked him to find a close servant. Xie Chengan put on the clothes of the yamen servant in the third hall, and then left the county yamen with Qing Niu with his head lowered.
Qingniu knew that Xie Chengan was disguising himself to go to Su's house, but when he saw the magistrate of the county who used to be so majestic and dignified, he suddenly pretended to be a handyman, he snickered in his heart.
The Su family was only one street away from the county government office, and they arrived in a few minutes. No one found Xie Chengan on the road.
Yang Xiaowu didn't know Xie Chengan, but he was familiar with Qingniu. Seeing him bringing someone here, he quickly greeted him with a smile.
Today's Qingniu is no longer the simple farmer, but a master Chai who responds to every call, a popular figure in front of Xie Zhixian. Yang Xiaowu naturally did not dare to neglect.
Yang Jing is in charge of Mulan Zhai, while Su Xiaobai and Su Xi'er are busy with their studies. Those girls, servants, and women were even more busy. Even Mr. Yu is not busy looking for work.
Only Su Mulan was writing "The Story of the Stone" with peace of mind.
This is a true masterpiece, and different people can see different insights in the book. She was writing that as soon as Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, Mrs. Yu came to report her, and Qing Niu brought people to see her.
Qing Niu has nothing important to do and will not come to see him in person. Su Mulan quickly asked Mrs. Yu to bring the people in.
"Mulan, long time no see." A familiar voice sounded. Su Mulan didn't see Qing Niu, but saw Xie Chengan entering her study alone.
"Oh, it turns out that the county magistrate is visiting his humble residence. Please don't blame me for not being able to welcome him from far away." Su Mulan bowed and said with a smile.
"You..." Xie Chengan was dumbfounded by her actions. He gritted his teeth and wanted to scold her, but he couldn't bear it. I had to find a seat to sit down by myself.
They haven't seen each other for three months. Although the two occasionally exchange letters, it is not as affectionate as meeting each other. Xie Chengan had a thousand words to say, but he didn't know where to start. He sighed and looked at her intently.
Seeing that he was wearing the clothes of a government servant, Su Mulan knew that he could not stay here for long, and she did not care about etiquette. She asked Ye Yu to make tea and bring some cakes, and the two started talking for a long time.
From Xie Cheng'an's account, Su Mulan learned that the sixteen boxes of gold at that time were actually stolen money from Guo Xuan, the Minister of Personnel, who sold his official position. Now she really felt at ease holding it.
They also learned that the county government had confiscated a large amount of property outside Qu Yuanwai, but Xie and Jiang did not dare to deal with it. Su Mulan couldn't help but feel moved in her heart.
Indeed, since he knew that these things belonged to Guo Xuan, if Xie Chengan dared to confiscate them, I am afraid that he, the county magistrate, would have reached his end.
However, they didn't dare to move, but she, Su Mulan, dared!
Now is not the time to fall out with Guo Xuan. Then detain these belongings first, but they cannot act in the county government office.
When Su Mulan told Xie Chengan her thoughts, he was surprised at first, but then he understood and agreed.
Xie Chengan brought up what Jiang Ruiyan wanted to ask again. Su Mulan pondered for a moment, but gave her suggestions.
At this critical moment, the two of them could not care less about each other. Xie Chengan finished talking about the business, exchanged a few heartfelt words with Su Mulan, and left.
Su Mulan continued writing "The Story of the Stone" until after dinner and when it got dark, she changed into a black short coat and an inconspicuous gray robe, and left the house with Ye Yu.
Xie Chengan returned to the county government office and recounted the ideas he had obtained from Su Mulan. Jiang Ruiyan was stunned.
But seeing that Xie Chengan was full of confidence and didn't hesitate to ask more questions, he acted according to Su Mulan's idea.
Qu Yuanwai was not sent to the county jail, but was placed under house arrest in the Zaoli class room. At this time, he was getting angry at the handyman who was serving him.
"Quiet, don't worry, I'm here." Jiang Ruiyan heard him losing his temper from a distance, so he answered from a distance.
"Oh? Master Jiang, what are you talking about?" The music member saw Jiang Ruiyan sitting on a four-wheeled vehicle being pushed, and came to the class room with a smile on his face. He was first surprised, and then happy.
"It's actually my first time to come to Guibao. I didn't know that Mr. Qu is a relative of the Heavenly Official, so he offended me a lot. I have just persuaded the county magistrate and I am here to send you back to the village." Jiang Ruiyan cupped his hands and said with a smile.
"Hmph! He knows his surname is Xie. If that's the case, why doesn't he come to apologize in person?" When Qu Yuanwai heard Jiang Ruiyan say this, he knew that the other party had given in.
But no, my brother-in-law is a heavenly official in the Ministry of Personnel! Even with Xie's courage, he wouldn't dare to do anything to himself.
Qu Yuanwai was completely relieved, but felt unhappy again. What? The banker caught them all and confiscated their property. Do you want to send him back so easily?
There is no door!
It’s time to let the man named Xie know that it is easier to ask God than to give him away!
Jiang Ruiyan didn't expect Qu Yuanwai to be so arrogant, so he had to give gentle words of comfort and promised to send the confiscated money, stolen goods, etc. back to the village by a yamen officer, and Qu Yuanwai left proudly.
He originally wanted Jiang Ruiyan to let those bankers go.
Jiang Ruiyan argued that the property could be sent back first, since it had not yet entered the county government warehouse. Although those bankers will definitely let it go, they need to go through the paperwork process, so that after easy negotiation, it will be fine.
After all, the county government actually had the experience to deal with him as an official, let alone those bankers. None of these people are clean, and if there is no competition, he is afraid that he will lose it.
It's just a few days later and it's not a big deal.
Those dozens of cars of property were a big deal to Qu Yuanwai.
He personally supervised Jiang Ruiyan and arranged for hundreds of government officials to load the goods into trucks and send them back to the Qu family manor overnight.
In order to show his sincerity, Jiang Ruiyan released more than ten family members of the Qu Yuan family.
