Chapter 40 The Secret of Ding Chang and Others
67. The secret of Ding Chang and others
There is a first lesson, and soon there will be a second lesson.
The days of Ding Chang and the others have been very difficult in recent days. Wei Bingjun temporarily let them hang out because they made decisions without authorization and threatened him because he was angry.
Ding Chang also understood that he had offended the other party's interests, so he accepted the punishment honestly, and just waited for the other party's anger to pass.
But how could Tang Yu make them so relaxed, when the "pillow wind" blew back, Ding Chang and the others began to encounter all kinds of troubles, and they were taken away by King Li's men for nothing, and then came back with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
It seems that life is worry-free, but anyone who understands knows that Tang Yu is playing with them like mice that fell into the cat's paw!
Some people think that Tang Yu must take revenge and has a bad temper.
But this kind of thinking has basically been despised by others. Tang Shizi's behavior is indeed a bit excessive, but Ding Chang and others deserve it.
Put yourself in the shoes of Tang Shizi from another angle, if they were Tang scholars, I'm afraid they would have to retaliate even more. After all, the dignified scholars now have no dignity and no future.
If another person encountered such a situation, everyone would sympathize, but it would definitely be inevitable to join in the fun and discuss some pornographic history, and watch the audience.
But Tang Yu was different. After he entered the yamen, except for the bad relationship with Ding Chang and the others, he was on good terms with everyone.
Later, he went on to hold newspapers and magazines and charity auctions three times in a row. Not only did he show admirable abilities, but he also brought everyone to participate and benefited.
For what happened to Tang Yu, everyone sympathized with them more than they laughed at them, and they were ashamed of Ding Chang and the others, and they were very ostracized recently.
All kinds of things added together, Ding Chang and others have a very difficult life.
So get together in private and worry about these things.
"Brother Ding, what should we do? I really didn't expect that Tang Yu could survive in the hands of King Li and coax King Li to help him. If this continues, he will know what we are doing sooner or later, and it will be even worse by then Will let us go!"
After everyone finished talking to Ding Chang, they looked at the poorly dressed man next to him, "Brother He, this matter was your idea, now you have to find a way to solve it for us, otherwise Tang Yu will find out, and you will not be left behind..."
There is no one else in Licheng whose surname is He, and who can be called 'brother' by these staff, except He Changlin.
He Changlin is just a small person with no background, but he was able to gather a faction in the yamen. In addition to his relationship with wine and meat, he naturally had other interests to bind.
To put it more clearly, everyone is on the same thief ship.
This time not only did not solve Tang Yu, but self-defeating to make the other party better, He Changlin was also in a gloomy mood, looking around at the people who put all the responsibility on his head, sneered,
"I made the right idea, but it's up to you whether you need it or not. Don't blame me alone. If you want to blame it, blame you for being too stupid. I didn't grasp the timing, but it made him happy!"
"How do we know that kid can put down his figure and coax King Li? Isn't King Li not close to beauty? Who knew he would be like this..."
Ding Chang and the others turned pale.
They originally planned to find a random nobleman to force him out that day. Although it was a little risky to hurt themselves, but only by doing that, can they be dealt with in one move. Otherwise, with Tang Yu's ability, Lord Wei will definitely protect him. other side.
The longer Tang Yu stayed in the Yamen, the easier it was for what they did to be exposed. It was not just because of He Changlin that they disliked Tang Yu.
"King Li is not close to beauty, but he didn't say that he was not close to man. We have calculated everything and ignored that kid's face."
He Changlin clenched his fists, "It's useless to say anything at this time, the most urgent thing is, don't just rely on me, you should pick up your brains yourself."
Everyone was silent, if there was a way, why would they need to be in such a hurry.
No, there is actually a way, but it depends on whether the person is willing...
Everyone looked at each other, and their eyes fell on He Changlin's expression, showing a flickering color.
He Changlin met everyone's eyes and smiled angrily.
"You idiots are really useless. Do you still expect me to take the blame for you now? That boy Tang Yu is deep in the city. He didn't show up when the Tang family was defeated. I coaxed his aunt's dowry for so long. Don’t you think it’s strange that I didn’t move, but suddenly attacked me at this moment?”
"Let me tell you, what happened back then was done by us together. None of you should try to get away with it. I'm having a hard time, and you don't want to be comfortable either! At worst, we all die together. Anyway, I have nothing now, just this life... "
"Brother He, look at what you said so seriously, we didn't say anything, why are you angry?"
Hearing these words, Ding Chang and others quickly dismissed their thoughts and smiled apologetically.
He Changlin didn't accept it, and continued to laugh,
"Don't tell me these things, keep your head clear, you have already tampered with at the auction, Tang Yu has fallen into the current situation, even if there is no business with the Tang family, he will not let you go, because he wants to fight internally, You still want to live, you decide for yourself!"
"..."
Everyone stopped talking, and naturally they all tended to live.
……
No one knew what Ding Chang and others were talking in private. Even if someone eavesdropped, they would be ambiguous and unable to guess the details.
They were anxious, and Tang Yu didn't relax either.
Because the guards sent by Yin Tyrant to investigate these people didn't find anything. They only knew the secrets of Ding Chang and others, but they had no way of knowing what it was.
This surprised Tang Yu, Ding Chang and these inconspicuous little people were really unexpected.
Therefore, he was not allowed to act these few days, and cooperated with the tyrant to frighten the other party, trying to make people show his feet, and then follow the clues.
But it was obvious that these people were very cautious, and they were in a hurry, but they didn't move.
"If you check behind these people, there will definitely be surprises. The king has sent someone to watch. You should do your best at the yamen..."
Yin Yu was also suddenly interested in Ding Chang and the others.
Being able to make these people count on small things even at the expense of self-destruction, the thing behind this is probably not so simple as jealousy.
"Understood the master."
A few people, Yin Yu, took over this moment, and Tang Yu ignored it for the time being, and dealt with the affairs of the yamen with peace of mind.
Although it is necessary to fight Qu Gong now, it cannot be completed in a day or two, but the use of newspapers and charitable fundraising is the most urgent task now.
The cold winter in Licheng is approaching gradually, and the issue of winter for the people is imminent.
Wei Bingjun also attached great importance to this, and took care of it himself. After all, he is a county magistrate from a poor family, and he pays much more attention to people's livelihood than other nobles. In the eyes of the common people, he is a good official.
Because Tang Yu wanted to take the opportunity to help Du Yong'an buy food, he took the initiative to take over the job of purchasing supplies. Wei Bingjun hesitated for a while, and finally didn't say anything, and delegated the power to him, but sent a prudent person to help him .
This matter is important, Tang Yu dare not take it easy, he did not take the initiative to visit merchants to find supplies, but directly let the word out, using modern government bidding to select suitable cooperative merchants.
In this way, not only can the material affairs be done properly, but also take the opportunity to learn about the merchants in Licheng, which will be useful in the future.
Therefore, after the bidding news came out, he was quickly greeted warmly by major grain merchants and cloth merchants in Licheng.
You must know that Tang Yu's transaction is not only as simple as being able to establish a relationship with the government, but also a large transaction. There are at least hundreds of thousands of people in the entire Licheng City. How much food and clothing does it need?
But any businessman can see the great benefits in it.
Therefore, Tang Yu and the Tang family have received a lot of strange guests recently to give gifts, and the Tang family always ran into various nobles when they went out.
Originally, in the past, if the Tang family met a nobleman to give a gift, they would definitely accept it happily. Anyway, they ordinary people have nothing to gain, so don't waste things for nothing.
However, because Tang Yu 'offended' the gentry and almost died a few days ago, the old lady was frightened, and repeatedly ordered the family members not to take things or make friends with others, so as not to bring disaster to the eldest grandson .
"Understood, mother, don't worry, nephew Yu works in the Yamen, we understand."
The Tang family doesn't have much wisdom, but they are very smart. They got back a lot of property from He Changlin before, so now they are not so stupid picking sesame seeds and throwing watermelons.
If something goes wrong with the eldest nephew, no matter how much gold and silver they have in their hands, they will not be able to bear it. Just like before, they have learned from the past, and it is themselves who cannot remember the suffering.
What's more, during the few days when Tang Yu disappeared, the family was really terrified.
A group of merchants couldn't pry their mouths open at the Tang family's side, so in the end they all had to run around in front of Tang Yu, smiling all kinds of flattery, hoping to please the government to take over the big deal.
Wang Zhan is one of these merchants.
Originally, Tang Yu didn't notice this person, because Wang Zhan's strength was really inconspicuous among a group of merchants, and the supply of food and cloth was not good enough. Fortunately, this person still had the confidence to come to deal with him, and he was not afraid of money being spent in vain.
But Tang Yu really didn't expect this person to bring him a surprise.
"Scholar Tang, my villainous brother-in-law is also working in the yamen. I am a colleague of you. You have to take care of us. The villain is not greedy. It is enough to contribute to the yamen. Please think about it..."
With a flattering expression on his face, Wang Zhan handed over a box of expensive jewelry.
There is no paper here, no banknotes, gold and silver are heavy and inconvenient to punch, and gifts are chosen to give small and valuable jewelry.
Tang Yu didn't pay attention at all, but Wang Zhan's words caught his attention.
"Who is your brother-in-law?"
"Staff Zou, Zou Wenliang." Wang Zhan replied positively.
As soon as Tang Yu listened to the music, isn't Zou Wenliang one of Ding Chang's gang?
Wang Zhan really didn't know, or was he stupid, he didn't inquire about the situation before he came to the Yamen, he didn't know what his relationship with Zou Wenliang was.
Tang Yu had a deep meaning, "It turns out that you are the brother-in-law of Zou's staff..."
"Yes, my sister is Zou's official wife, and I am his official brother-in-law. My brother-in-law is very busy these days, so I don't want to disturb him when I come to the Yamen."
Wang Zhan thought there was something going on, so he nodded positively.
But who knows that the next moment people will turn their faces and be ruthless,
"Since you are Zou Wenliang's brother-in-law, I will tell you plainly that you should forget about the business cooperation in this government tender."
Wang Zhan, who was looking forward to it happily, was stunned, "Why, why?"
"Since Zou Wenliang is your brother-in-law, didn't he tell you that he has a bad relationship with me? You dare to mention Zou Wenliang's name in front of me. You deserve it because you don't have much business and you don't even wince at all!"
Tang Yu glared angrily, pretending to be a petty villain.
"Businessman Wang, right? Let me tell you, don't think about any cooperation with the Yamen in the future. If you want to blame you, blame your good brother-in-law."
**********
68. Zou Wenliang's Stupid Wife
Wang Zhan walked out of the yamen with a dazed face, holding the undelivered jewelry box in his hand.
It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and then angrily ignoring the sideways glances of passers-by around him, he cursed loudly,
"Zou Wenliang, you bastard, I've had eight lifetimes of bad luck to marry you!"
Wang Zhan was so angry that his lungs exploded.
In fact, he was not as stupid as Tang Yu thought. How could he not inquire about the situation in advance when he went out to do business and engage in relationships.But he couldn't help it. It was true that he and Zou Wenliang were relatives, but the relationship was not good, even bad.
And the relationship inside the yamen is not easy for outsiders to inquire clearly. He thought that they were all staff members of the county magistrate, and they should have a good relationship. Still a very friendly person.
But who knew that Zou Wenliang's popularity was not only not good, but also bad. He only mentioned a relationship, and the Tang scholar actually told him not to come to the Yamen in the future. How annoying is that bastard!
Wang Zhan was full of depression and couldn't get angry left and right. After leaving the Yamen, he hurried to his sister's house to find someone.
But where was Zou Wenliang at home in broad daylight? He naturally ran away and only saw the girl he hadn't seen for a long time.After drinking two glasses of water, he calmed down a little from the depression in his heart, and then told his sister about the yamen.
"...Sister, what the hell did that bastard Zou Wenliang do in the yamen all day long? I mentioned his name, and Tang Shizi immediately cut off my brother's livelihood. You said that the person in charge of your family is so unpopular! Brother It's really bad luck for you to marry him."
Wang Zhan was furious.
It was also his fault that he was blind and greedy back then. For the sake of business, he learned nepotism from others. He fell in love with Zou Wenliang, who was working in the Yamen, and hurriedly married the girl without thinking clearly.
As a result, Zou Wenliang didn't pay attention to his brother-in-law after marrying his lovely wife, and made him pay for his sister and money.
Therefore, their relative relationship has been very rigid for many years. If he is not looking forward to cooperating with the government to continue the family business this time, he would not be ashamed to borrow the other party's name.
"Brother, don't worry, don't be angry. When my husband comes back in the evening, I will ask for you. Ask him."
Mrs. Wang is a timid woman who has no opinions. She is a typical traditional ancient woman who obeys her father at home, her husband when she gets married, and her son after her husband dies.Seeing her brother's angry look, she was a little overwhelmed. She didn't know what her man was like outside, and the husband thought she was stupid and never told her more.
Seeing his younger sister's unpromising appearance, Wang Zhan couldn't express his anger any longer. He was afraid that the louder voice would scare the younger sister to faint.
Although at the beginning he wanted to use his sister for a relationship, but in the end it was his own sister. After his father died, his sister was raised by him. She is also a brother and a father, so there is still some brother-sister affection.
"Forget it, you can't get a sulky temper like a stick, and asking you to ask is as difficult as making a pig climb a tree. The bastard will definitely have to attack you when the time comes, and this kind of thing in the husband and wife's room, brother. I can't make the decision for you, I just suffer..."
Wang Zhan put down his bowl and sighed, "It's all my brother's fault that he was so overwhelmed at the time."
"Brother, in fact, my husband is still very good to me. The other men are like three wives and four concubines. He didn't bring anyone home. Yingying is very satisfied."
The appearance of Mrs. Wang Nuo Nuo.
Wang Zhan hates that iron cannot be made into steel,
"Brother, I have never seen you so stupid. Doesn't Zou Wenliang bring someone home? He is stingy and reluctant, and he spends more money when he gets married. He is in a good mood outside and wants to change which beauty is which. Let you take care of yourself at home." It's comfortable outside."
"You know that He Changlin? It's the one who got married with you. A few days ago, there was a joke in the city that he was tricked into stealing his own wife's dowry. Zou Wenliang made friends with him. It must be a bunch of things. Be careful. Son……"
Mrs. Wang was so downcast that she couldn't hold her head up, but she gained confidence when she said the last sentence.
"Brother, don't worry, my husband is definitely not greedy for my dowry. He often goes home to bring money back. Let me hide boxes of gold and silver, and I will take care of all the keys."
"What? That cheapskate Zou Wenliang let you manage the family's money?"
Now Wang Zhan was even more confused, his eyes widened and he couldn't believe what he heard.
Mrs. Wang finally regained her confidence in front of her natal family. She looked around and whispered, "Yes brother, my husband asked me to take care of it. He said that I would hide money and not be afraid of losing it."
The voice is slightly smug.
Wang Zhan couldn't help rolling his eyes after hearing this, "I'm afraid it's not that you will hide money and not lose it, but that you will not waste his gold and silver."
My own sister still doesn't understand, she has no temper and listens to her husband, she is obviously born as a daughter of a wealthy family, but she has a hamster character who is frugal and loves to save money, Zou Wenliang can let his sister do it The main reason for the role of wife is probably because of this, it is hard to find a virtuous and easy-to-handle daughter-in-law.
But Zou Wenliang overlooked one point. His wife listened to him, but she also listened to her natal brother. In Mrs. Wang's worldview, her husband, brother and son are gods, and she doesn't take her own considerations into what she says and does.
Therefore, Mrs. Wang attached great importance to her brother's skeptical attitude, and said firmly, "Brother, what I said is true, if you don't believe me, I will take you to the place where I hide the money."
This prodigal silly bitch.
Wang Zhan: ...Fortunately, this is his sister, not his wife.
But when did Zou Wenliang bring so many boxes of gold and silver home and hide them?
Wang Zhan was very puzzled, "Sister, your man is just a small staff in the yamen, where did you get so much gold and silver for you to hide?"
"I don't know either. I guess it's because of the benefits of Mr. Xiang. As for the matter of the year before last, Mr. Xiang drove an ox cart back one night. There were many boxes on it, and each box was filled with gold and silver pancakes. Jewelry and jade or something."
"I asked my husband where it came from, and he told me that it was a gift from someone else, and told me to hide it and not use it for a few years, saying that I was afraid of being criticized..."
Mrs. Wang confessed honestly, she did not hide anything from her brother, she had full trust.
"But after that, Mr. Xiang often had nightmares. He was chanting about the Tang family, his lord, and his life. He woke up in the middle of the night. I turned around and asked him, but he didn't tell me. Speak out."
Isn't it said now...
Wang Zhan suddenly felt that it was a very correct decision to marry the girl out early, or he would be the one who sold out the family.
But it was also because he was the elder brother that the girl would tell him that she must be tight-lipped to outsiders. Otherwise, how could Zou Wenliang give things to his wife with confidence, and how could the outsiders not know that Zou Wenliang had made a fortune.
"This bastard must have done something shady, otherwise why would he be so scared that he would have nightmares in the middle of the night..."
Wang Zhan heard it from the girl's mouth, he had a bad feeling, and worried to continue asking,
"Sister, tell me again what you do on a fair day, we have to deal with it, if that bastard really did something, we have to kick him out quickly, so as not to be implicated and killed by him, he Working in the yamen, the people who can offend must be dignitaries."
"Brother, it's not that serious, my husband is actually quite timid..."
Lady Wang's face immediately turned pale, and she was a little frightened.
The more Wang Zhan thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. The main reason was that people who understood what the girl said could see that there was a problem. It was only his sister who didn't understand anything and who thought her husband was a fool could not see it.
It's just that Mrs. Wang doesn't care much about her husband's outside affairs, and Zou Wenliang doesn't like talking about the yamen with his wife, because he thinks his wife is stupid, and she doesn't understand if she talks about it, and it is easy to cause trouble if there are too many people.
So in the end, Wang Zhan couldn't ask any more questions. He only knew that his brother-in-law had made a fortune, and he didn't know what he did.
"Damn it, what the hell did Zou Wenliang, that bastard, do? Don't involve us in the Wang family's funeral..."
Wang Zhan went home worried.
It's not that he is worrying unfoundedly, but that there are many people who have been implicated by their in-laws, so he can't help worrying.
……
at the same time.
After Wang Zhan left, Tang Yu hurriedly asked people to investigate what happened to Wang Zhan and Zou Wenliang.
After learning that although the two are related by marriage, their relationship is not good, they have a plan in mind.
He is not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs. This Wang Zhan is the breakthrough to break the secret of Ding Chang and his gang.
"003, help me buy a one-time psychological suggestion..."
Tang Yu contacted 003 and didn't feel sorry for the points anymore. The tyrant is easy to coax now, and the points came back with a hug, happy.
*********
69. Psychological suggestion Wang Zhan
After the system bought the gold finger, Tang Yu was not in a hurry to use it immediately, but let people continue to watch Wang Zhan's contact with the Zou family.
Because he is very much concerned by the gentry in Licheng now, there is no guarantee that anyone will be watching him around, and who knows if the tyrant has arranged any hidden guards by his side, so be careful in everything, every time he uses the golden finger, he calls 003 checked the surrounding environment.
If Mao rashly let Wang Zhan listen to him, a fool can see that something is wrong.
The system is the foundation of one's own life, and it cannot be exposed. As for the tyrant who can hide it from the future, let's talk about it. It's really impossible to make up nonsense about gods descending to earth to choose emperors. Isn't feudal superstitious society just like to do this? .
During the surveillance, Tang Yu discovered that Wang Zhan Mingming had a bad relationship with the Zou family, but recently he kept going to the Zou family.
It stands to reason that Wang Zhan was kicked out of the Yamen by him, shouldn't he be more anxious to find a way to save the business, why did he seem to be not thinking about business these two days, but often went to see his sister?
The more he felt that Wang Zhan was suspicious, and when the fire was almost ready, Tang Yu asked someone to arrest him quietly.
"You you you, who are you?"
Leng Buding was caught in a strange place, surrounded by four or five masked men in black, and sitting on the main seat was a man in a fancy dress but with a mask of fangs. Wang Zhan was almost frightened by the battle. peed.
In the past few days, he has been tortured a lot by the idea of "suspecting that his brother-in-law committed a serious crime of beheading". The Wang family is just an ordinary businessman, and ordinary people are afraid of the government, so they are very timid.
As long as he thought about what his brother-in-law had done in the yamen, which might cause his family to be buried with him, Wang Zhan was so frightened that he couldn't sleep, and couldn't sleep or eat.
Suddenly encountering this situation, the first reaction in his mind was that his brother-in-law's crimes were exposed and his family was implicated!
After investigation, Tang Yu naturally knew that he was timid, so he threatened without guilt,
"Wang Zhan, do you know what brought you here today?"
Wang Zhan made a trembling voice, "My lord, I don't know my villain..."
"Bang!" Tang Yu slapped the table heavily, "You dare to argue with me, you are Zou Wenliang's brother-in-law, you dare to say you don't know what he did!"
It's really Zou Wenliang's bastard.
Wang Zhan vomited blood in his heart and kowtowed to beg for mercy, "Please forgive me, my lord. I really don't know. Although the villain and Zou Wenliang are related by marriage, the relationship between our two families is not good. My lord, please forgive me. What did that bastard Zou Wenliang do?" It's really not about villains, I don't have much contact with the Zou family on weekdays..."
"If you have no relationship, why are you still acting under the banner of Zou Wenliang outside? Don't lie to me. If you don't tell me the truth, I will cut off your limbs before asking questions!"
Tang Yu's voice became angry and continued to scare.
"Forgive me, my lord. I really don't care about villains. Xiaozhen has nothing to do with Zou Wenliang. I used him as a banner because the family business is about to fail. I want to cooperate with the Yamen to support it, so I have to bite the bullet and do it." , I want to know what Zou Wenliang has done, and I have nothing to do with him if he is killed, please learn from me."
Wang Zhan cried anxiously. He really hadn't been in touch with Zou Wenliang for thousands of years. This time, he suddenly got along with Zou Wenliang. What's the matter?
Perhaps seeing his sincerity, the adults in the seat were skeptical, "Really?"
"Really, it's more real than real gold! My lord, I really don't know what Zou Wenliang did. If you want to know, just arrest him and torture him to extract a confession. That bastard is very timid, and he will definitely not be able to resist interrogation."
"My lord, I really have nothing to do with the Zou family. The only contact I have with the Zou family is to see my sister. The neighbors of the Zou family and the merchants I know can testify that I have no contact with the Zou family on weekdays. I want to talk to him." If the relationship is good, my business will definitely not be bad, if you don’t believe me, please go and check..."
Wang Zhan nodded fiercely, and made an idea without hesitation. A dead fellow is not a poor fellow, and Zou Wenliang should take responsibility for what he does, so he can't be dragged down.
"If I can directly torture him to extract a confession, why do I need you? Well, since you really don't know, then I won't embarrass you."
Tang Yu snorted coldly with a hoarse voice.
"Thank you, my lord, for your insight, thank you, my lord."
Wang Zhan was delighted and quickly kowtowed.
But who knows that the adults in the seat turned around again, "Don't kowtow in a hurry, I won't embarrass you, but I didn't say to let you go..."
Wang Zhan turned into mourning in seconds, feeling that he was really unlucky.
"Wang Zhan, I thought that you did not conspire with the Zou family. It is not difficult for you at this time, but you and the Zou family are related by marriage. If he committed a crime, your Wang family should not try to escape easily. Based on your relationship, who would believe you are innocent?"
"To tell you the truth, we are the 'Supervision Division', a secret department of the imperial court, directly under His Majesty's management. Our duty is to monitor and inspect corrupt officials in various government offices. Ordinary people don't know that we exist...Now we have received news, your brother-in-law Zou Wenliang participated in a very huge conspiracy, once this matter is found out, it will be the crime of Zhu Jiu Clan, even if your sister is a married woman, her mother's family will also be implicated."
Tang Yu made up nonsense without blinking.
Anyway, Wang Zhan is not very clear about what is going on inside the yamen. If he had to be clear, he would not be stupid enough to bump into him. Besides, he said it was a secret department, and even the yamen didn't know about it. Is it normal?
However, for the sake of safety, while speaking, Tang Yu also secretly used the golden finger of the system to give spiritual hints to the other party.
"So, if you don't want your Wang family to suffer, then make amends and cooperate with our investigation of Zou Wenliang. If you don't cooperate, the Zou family will be investigated in the future, and you will be hiding the crime of your accomplices."
The fear in Wang Zhan's heart, which has been imprinted into the spiritual and psychological hints, was infinitely magnified, and he stammered, "I, I, I..."
"Don't worry, you do this in secret. If you don't succeed, I will intercede for you in the future; if you succeed, it will be a great achievement. Not only will you not have to suffer, but the government will reward you. Don't you want to do business with the government? When the time comes, I will give you a reward." I will give you advice to ensure that your Wang family's business will go smoothly in the future."
"Okay, you go back first, if you find any news, go to the temple outside the city to offer incense, and then the official will find you."
After a burst of nonsense threats and lures, and leaving psychological hints to Wang Zhan, Tang Yu clapped his hands and asked people to leave.
After that, Wang Zhan went home in a trance, and had a nightmare that night...
In his dream, he dreamed that Zou Wenliang had committed a heinous crime. The government wanted to kill the Zou family. His sister and nephew were taken away crying.
I thought the matter was over, but the government came to arrest him the next day, saying that Zou Wenliang confessed and that he was also an accomplice in the crime.
"You don't need to quibble, Zou Wenliang has already confessed honestly that you are their accomplice in the conspiracy. All the gold and silver he got were buried in your family's farm wasteland. The evidence is convincing!"
The officials didn't listen to his explanation at all, so they arrested the Wang family as well.
Wang Zhan was in a state of anxiety, weeping and angry, Zou Wenliang, that heartless thing, actually harmed him like this, where did they come to conspire, what a confession!
When he was in the cell, he saw Zou Wenliang staring at him with a vicious smile on his face.
"You bastard, why do you want to kill me! Why do you want to kill me!"
"We are in-laws, you have to be buried with me, buried with me, buried with me, died together, died together..."
In the dream, Zou Wenliang laughed ferociously like the sound of an evil spirit calling for a soul.
Wang Zhan was so frightened that he woke up, sweating profusely, and his hands and feet were shaking.
As the saying goes, the bow of a cup and the shadow of a snake.
Wang Zhan, who was always thinking wildly and afraid of being implicated, became even more frightened after having this dream, and vaguely resented Zou Wenliang.
Indeed, even if he hadn't conspired with the other party, Zou Wenliang's personality was uncertain. What if he was buried with him in order to mitigate his charges, or when he became malicious?
Their relationship is not good, and it is very likely that they will be wronged. Whoever says that people are about to die is good, some people have such vicious thoughts, and they are not willing to die and drag people to be buried with them.
Trembling in his heart, with countless doubts, the more Wang Zhan thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he hurried to Zou's house to look for Mrs. Wang.
"Sister, where did your husband tell you to hide the gold and silver?"
Don't be like in his dream.
"In our farm, that is our family's wasteland. It has been left untouched and no one has touched it. My husband said that he will take it out after the limelight..."
Mrs. Wang confessed honestly.
Wang Zhan petrified, looking at his sister's trust in her husband, old blood welled up in his chest.How could this kind of stolen goods be buried in the fields of their family? There are really too many to count when the incident happened!
Besides, it's not good, it was Zou Wenliang's intention, just waiting to be exposed to push the Wang family to take the blame, saying that the Wang family is the mastermind and the Zou family is the accomplice!
After Wang Zhan left Zou's house full of old blood, dreaming images kept flashing in his mind, thinking about various interests, and feeling terrified.
Is their Wang family really going to share troubles with the Zou family?That can't be, the Zou family didn't share wealth with them, why.
What's more, what Zou Wenliang committed was a major crime of punishing the nine clans. If it is really found out, there is no reason to beg for mercy...
After careful consideration, Wang Zhan firmly decided that it is better to die as a fellow Taoist than to be a poor Taoist, so he rushed to the temple outside the city to burn incense and send a signal to Tang Yu.
Zou Wenliang is responsible for the good deeds he has done, so he cannot implicate the Wang family!
After being taken to the secret room again, Wang Zhan was no longer afraid when he saw the adult with the mask of fangs and the official servant in black, and instead had a different sense of security.
He has done nothing wrong, so what is he afraid of, what should be afraid of is that bastard Zou Wenliang.
"My lord, Mr. Wang is willing to kill his relatives righteously. Zou Wenliang should be punished for breaking the law. It's just that the villain is stupid and doesn't know what to do. Please tell me clearly."
Wang Zhan knelt on the ground respectfully and tremblingly,
"In addition... I also hope that my lord can give Wang some peace of mind, and really keep my Wang family and my sister from being implicated. Please atone for my sin, villain, villain is timid and afraid."
After all, he is still an adult, he still has the vigilance he should have, and he is also afraid of being cheated by others.
Since ancient times, there have been few things like killing donkeys and running dogs.
"You are alert. In that case, I will write you a secret letter and give you a token. In this way, you can feel at ease."
Knowing that the other party might have such a request, Tang Yu took out the things he had prepared earlier.
Wang Zhan took the things and carefully observed the metal of the casting token. It is a material only available and used by the government, and non-government people must not make fake ones, so he can rest assured.
"Please advise, my lord."
Wang Zhan packed his things happily, and was a little excited about going to cheat his brother-in-law.
There is a first lesson, and soon there will be a second lesson.
The days of Ding Chang and the others have been very difficult in recent days. Wei Bingjun temporarily let them hang out because they made decisions without authorization and threatened him because he was angry.
Ding Chang also understood that he had offended the other party's interests, so he accepted the punishment honestly, and just waited for the other party's anger to pass.
But how could Tang Yu make them so relaxed, when the "pillow wind" blew back, Ding Chang and the others began to encounter all kinds of troubles, and they were taken away by King Li's men for nothing, and then came back with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
It seems that life is worry-free, but anyone who understands knows that Tang Yu is playing with them like mice that fell into the cat's paw!
Some people think that Tang Yu must take revenge and has a bad temper.
But this kind of thinking has basically been despised by others. Tang Shizi's behavior is indeed a bit excessive, but Ding Chang and others deserve it.
Put yourself in the shoes of Tang Shizi from another angle, if they were Tang scholars, I'm afraid they would have to retaliate even more. After all, the dignified scholars now have no dignity and no future.
If another person encountered such a situation, everyone would sympathize, but it would definitely be inevitable to join in the fun and discuss some pornographic history, and watch the audience.
But Tang Yu was different. After he entered the yamen, except for the bad relationship with Ding Chang and the others, he was on good terms with everyone.
Later, he went on to hold newspapers and magazines and charity auctions three times in a row. Not only did he show admirable abilities, but he also brought everyone to participate and benefited.
For what happened to Tang Yu, everyone sympathized with them more than they laughed at them, and they were ashamed of Ding Chang and the others, and they were very ostracized recently.
All kinds of things added together, Ding Chang and others have a very difficult life.
So get together in private and worry about these things.
"Brother Ding, what should we do? I really didn't expect that Tang Yu could survive in the hands of King Li and coax King Li to help him. If this continues, he will know what we are doing sooner or later, and it will be even worse by then Will let us go!"
After everyone finished talking to Ding Chang, they looked at the poorly dressed man next to him, "Brother He, this matter was your idea, now you have to find a way to solve it for us, otherwise Tang Yu will find out, and you will not be left behind..."
There is no one else in Licheng whose surname is He, and who can be called 'brother' by these staff, except He Changlin.
He Changlin is just a small person with no background, but he was able to gather a faction in the yamen. In addition to his relationship with wine and meat, he naturally had other interests to bind.
To put it more clearly, everyone is on the same thief ship.
This time not only did not solve Tang Yu, but self-defeating to make the other party better, He Changlin was also in a gloomy mood, looking around at the people who put all the responsibility on his head, sneered,
"I made the right idea, but it's up to you whether you need it or not. Don't blame me alone. If you want to blame it, blame you for being too stupid. I didn't grasp the timing, but it made him happy!"
"How do we know that kid can put down his figure and coax King Li? Isn't King Li not close to beauty? Who knew he would be like this..."
Ding Chang and the others turned pale.
They originally planned to find a random nobleman to force him out that day. Although it was a little risky to hurt themselves, but only by doing that, can they be dealt with in one move. Otherwise, with Tang Yu's ability, Lord Wei will definitely protect him. other side.
The longer Tang Yu stayed in the Yamen, the easier it was for what they did to be exposed. It was not just because of He Changlin that they disliked Tang Yu.
"King Li is not close to beauty, but he didn't say that he was not close to man. We have calculated everything and ignored that kid's face."
He Changlin clenched his fists, "It's useless to say anything at this time, the most urgent thing is, don't just rely on me, you should pick up your brains yourself."
Everyone was silent, if there was a way, why would they need to be in such a hurry.
No, there is actually a way, but it depends on whether the person is willing...
Everyone looked at each other, and their eyes fell on He Changlin's expression, showing a flickering color.
He Changlin met everyone's eyes and smiled angrily.
"You idiots are really useless. Do you still expect me to take the blame for you now? That boy Tang Yu is deep in the city. He didn't show up when the Tang family was defeated. I coaxed his aunt's dowry for so long. Don’t you think it’s strange that I didn’t move, but suddenly attacked me at this moment?”
"Let me tell you, what happened back then was done by us together. None of you should try to get away with it. I'm having a hard time, and you don't want to be comfortable either! At worst, we all die together. Anyway, I have nothing now, just this life... "
"Brother He, look at what you said so seriously, we didn't say anything, why are you angry?"
Hearing these words, Ding Chang and others quickly dismissed their thoughts and smiled apologetically.
He Changlin didn't accept it, and continued to laugh,
"Don't tell me these things, keep your head clear, you have already tampered with at the auction, Tang Yu has fallen into the current situation, even if there is no business with the Tang family, he will not let you go, because he wants to fight internally, You still want to live, you decide for yourself!"
"..."
Everyone stopped talking, and naturally they all tended to live.
……
No one knew what Ding Chang and others were talking in private. Even if someone eavesdropped, they would be ambiguous and unable to guess the details.
They were anxious, and Tang Yu didn't relax either.
Because the guards sent by Yin Tyrant to investigate these people didn't find anything. They only knew the secrets of Ding Chang and others, but they had no way of knowing what it was.
This surprised Tang Yu, Ding Chang and these inconspicuous little people were really unexpected.
Therefore, he was not allowed to act these few days, and cooperated with the tyrant to frighten the other party, trying to make people show his feet, and then follow the clues.
But it was obvious that these people were very cautious, and they were in a hurry, but they didn't move.
"If you check behind these people, there will definitely be surprises. The king has sent someone to watch. You should do your best at the yamen..."
Yin Yu was also suddenly interested in Ding Chang and the others.
Being able to make these people count on small things even at the expense of self-destruction, the thing behind this is probably not so simple as jealousy.
"Understood the master."
A few people, Yin Yu, took over this moment, and Tang Yu ignored it for the time being, and dealt with the affairs of the yamen with peace of mind.
Although it is necessary to fight Qu Gong now, it cannot be completed in a day or two, but the use of newspapers and charitable fundraising is the most urgent task now.
The cold winter in Licheng is approaching gradually, and the issue of winter for the people is imminent.
Wei Bingjun also attached great importance to this, and took care of it himself. After all, he is a county magistrate from a poor family, and he pays much more attention to people's livelihood than other nobles. In the eyes of the common people, he is a good official.
Because Tang Yu wanted to take the opportunity to help Du Yong'an buy food, he took the initiative to take over the job of purchasing supplies. Wei Bingjun hesitated for a while, and finally didn't say anything, and delegated the power to him, but sent a prudent person to help him .
This matter is important, Tang Yu dare not take it easy, he did not take the initiative to visit merchants to find supplies, but directly let the word out, using modern government bidding to select suitable cooperative merchants.
In this way, not only can the material affairs be done properly, but also take the opportunity to learn about the merchants in Licheng, which will be useful in the future.
Therefore, after the bidding news came out, he was quickly greeted warmly by major grain merchants and cloth merchants in Licheng.
You must know that Tang Yu's transaction is not only as simple as being able to establish a relationship with the government, but also a large transaction. There are at least hundreds of thousands of people in the entire Licheng City. How much food and clothing does it need?
But any businessman can see the great benefits in it.
Therefore, Tang Yu and the Tang family have received a lot of strange guests recently to give gifts, and the Tang family always ran into various nobles when they went out.
Originally, in the past, if the Tang family met a nobleman to give a gift, they would definitely accept it happily. Anyway, they ordinary people have nothing to gain, so don't waste things for nothing.
However, because Tang Yu 'offended' the gentry and almost died a few days ago, the old lady was frightened, and repeatedly ordered the family members not to take things or make friends with others, so as not to bring disaster to the eldest grandson .
"Understood, mother, don't worry, nephew Yu works in the Yamen, we understand."
The Tang family doesn't have much wisdom, but they are very smart. They got back a lot of property from He Changlin before, so now they are not so stupid picking sesame seeds and throwing watermelons.
If something goes wrong with the eldest nephew, no matter how much gold and silver they have in their hands, they will not be able to bear it. Just like before, they have learned from the past, and it is themselves who cannot remember the suffering.
What's more, during the few days when Tang Yu disappeared, the family was really terrified.
A group of merchants couldn't pry their mouths open at the Tang family's side, so in the end they all had to run around in front of Tang Yu, smiling all kinds of flattery, hoping to please the government to take over the big deal.
Wang Zhan is one of these merchants.
Originally, Tang Yu didn't notice this person, because Wang Zhan's strength was really inconspicuous among a group of merchants, and the supply of food and cloth was not good enough. Fortunately, this person still had the confidence to come to deal with him, and he was not afraid of money being spent in vain.
But Tang Yu really didn't expect this person to bring him a surprise.
"Scholar Tang, my villainous brother-in-law is also working in the yamen. I am a colleague of you. You have to take care of us. The villain is not greedy. It is enough to contribute to the yamen. Please think about it..."
With a flattering expression on his face, Wang Zhan handed over a box of expensive jewelry.
There is no paper here, no banknotes, gold and silver are heavy and inconvenient to punch, and gifts are chosen to give small and valuable jewelry.
Tang Yu didn't pay attention at all, but Wang Zhan's words caught his attention.
"Who is your brother-in-law?"
"Staff Zou, Zou Wenliang." Wang Zhan replied positively.
As soon as Tang Yu listened to the music, isn't Zou Wenliang one of Ding Chang's gang?
Wang Zhan really didn't know, or was he stupid, he didn't inquire about the situation before he came to the Yamen, he didn't know what his relationship with Zou Wenliang was.
Tang Yu had a deep meaning, "It turns out that you are the brother-in-law of Zou's staff..."
"Yes, my sister is Zou's official wife, and I am his official brother-in-law. My brother-in-law is very busy these days, so I don't want to disturb him when I come to the Yamen."
Wang Zhan thought there was something going on, so he nodded positively.
But who knows that the next moment people will turn their faces and be ruthless,
"Since you are Zou Wenliang's brother-in-law, I will tell you plainly that you should forget about the business cooperation in this government tender."
Wang Zhan, who was looking forward to it happily, was stunned, "Why, why?"
"Since Zou Wenliang is your brother-in-law, didn't he tell you that he has a bad relationship with me? You dare to mention Zou Wenliang's name in front of me. You deserve it because you don't have much business and you don't even wince at all!"
Tang Yu glared angrily, pretending to be a petty villain.
"Businessman Wang, right? Let me tell you, don't think about any cooperation with the Yamen in the future. If you want to blame you, blame your good brother-in-law."
**********
68. Zou Wenliang's Stupid Wife
Wang Zhan walked out of the yamen with a dazed face, holding the undelivered jewelry box in his hand.
It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and then angrily ignoring the sideways glances of passers-by around him, he cursed loudly,
"Zou Wenliang, you bastard, I've had eight lifetimes of bad luck to marry you!"
Wang Zhan was so angry that his lungs exploded.
In fact, he was not as stupid as Tang Yu thought. How could he not inquire about the situation in advance when he went out to do business and engage in relationships.But he couldn't help it. It was true that he and Zou Wenliang were relatives, but the relationship was not good, even bad.
And the relationship inside the yamen is not easy for outsiders to inquire clearly. He thought that they were all staff members of the county magistrate, and they should have a good relationship. Still a very friendly person.
But who knew that Zou Wenliang's popularity was not only not good, but also bad. He only mentioned a relationship, and the Tang scholar actually told him not to come to the Yamen in the future. How annoying is that bastard!
Wang Zhan was full of depression and couldn't get angry left and right. After leaving the Yamen, he hurried to his sister's house to find someone.
But where was Zou Wenliang at home in broad daylight? He naturally ran away and only saw the girl he hadn't seen for a long time.After drinking two glasses of water, he calmed down a little from the depression in his heart, and then told his sister about the yamen.
"...Sister, what the hell did that bastard Zou Wenliang do in the yamen all day long? I mentioned his name, and Tang Shizi immediately cut off my brother's livelihood. You said that the person in charge of your family is so unpopular! Brother It's really bad luck for you to marry him."
Wang Zhan was furious.
It was also his fault that he was blind and greedy back then. For the sake of business, he learned nepotism from others. He fell in love with Zou Wenliang, who was working in the Yamen, and hurriedly married the girl without thinking clearly.
As a result, Zou Wenliang didn't pay attention to his brother-in-law after marrying his lovely wife, and made him pay for his sister and money.
Therefore, their relative relationship has been very rigid for many years. If he is not looking forward to cooperating with the government to continue the family business this time, he would not be ashamed to borrow the other party's name.
"Brother, don't worry, don't be angry. When my husband comes back in the evening, I will ask for you. Ask him."
Mrs. Wang is a timid woman who has no opinions. She is a typical traditional ancient woman who obeys her father at home, her husband when she gets married, and her son after her husband dies.Seeing her brother's angry look, she was a little overwhelmed. She didn't know what her man was like outside, and the husband thought she was stupid and never told her more.
Seeing his younger sister's unpromising appearance, Wang Zhan couldn't express his anger any longer. He was afraid that the louder voice would scare the younger sister to faint.
Although at the beginning he wanted to use his sister for a relationship, but in the end it was his own sister. After his father died, his sister was raised by him. She is also a brother and a father, so there is still some brother-sister affection.
"Forget it, you can't get a sulky temper like a stick, and asking you to ask is as difficult as making a pig climb a tree. The bastard will definitely have to attack you when the time comes, and this kind of thing in the husband and wife's room, brother. I can't make the decision for you, I just suffer..."
Wang Zhan put down his bowl and sighed, "It's all my brother's fault that he was so overwhelmed at the time."
"Brother, in fact, my husband is still very good to me. The other men are like three wives and four concubines. He didn't bring anyone home. Yingying is very satisfied."
The appearance of Mrs. Wang Nuo Nuo.
Wang Zhan hates that iron cannot be made into steel,
"Brother, I have never seen you so stupid. Doesn't Zou Wenliang bring someone home? He is stingy and reluctant, and he spends more money when he gets married. He is in a good mood outside and wants to change which beauty is which. Let you take care of yourself at home." It's comfortable outside."
"You know that He Changlin? It's the one who got married with you. A few days ago, there was a joke in the city that he was tricked into stealing his own wife's dowry. Zou Wenliang made friends with him. It must be a bunch of things. Be careful. Son……"
Mrs. Wang was so downcast that she couldn't hold her head up, but she gained confidence when she said the last sentence.
"Brother, don't worry, my husband is definitely not greedy for my dowry. He often goes home to bring money back. Let me hide boxes of gold and silver, and I will take care of all the keys."
"What? That cheapskate Zou Wenliang let you manage the family's money?"
Now Wang Zhan was even more confused, his eyes widened and he couldn't believe what he heard.
Mrs. Wang finally regained her confidence in front of her natal family. She looked around and whispered, "Yes brother, my husband asked me to take care of it. He said that I would hide money and not be afraid of losing it."
The voice is slightly smug.
Wang Zhan couldn't help rolling his eyes after hearing this, "I'm afraid it's not that you will hide money and not lose it, but that you will not waste his gold and silver."
My own sister still doesn't understand, she has no temper and listens to her husband, she is obviously born as a daughter of a wealthy family, but she has a hamster character who is frugal and loves to save money, Zou Wenliang can let his sister do it The main reason for the role of wife is probably because of this, it is hard to find a virtuous and easy-to-handle daughter-in-law.
But Zou Wenliang overlooked one point. His wife listened to him, but she also listened to her natal brother. In Mrs. Wang's worldview, her husband, brother and son are gods, and she doesn't take her own considerations into what she says and does.
Therefore, Mrs. Wang attached great importance to her brother's skeptical attitude, and said firmly, "Brother, what I said is true, if you don't believe me, I will take you to the place where I hide the money."
This prodigal silly bitch.
Wang Zhan: ...Fortunately, this is his sister, not his wife.
But when did Zou Wenliang bring so many boxes of gold and silver home and hide them?
Wang Zhan was very puzzled, "Sister, your man is just a small staff in the yamen, where did you get so much gold and silver for you to hide?"
"I don't know either. I guess it's because of the benefits of Mr. Xiang. As for the matter of the year before last, Mr. Xiang drove an ox cart back one night. There were many boxes on it, and each box was filled with gold and silver pancakes. Jewelry and jade or something."
"I asked my husband where it came from, and he told me that it was a gift from someone else, and told me to hide it and not use it for a few years, saying that I was afraid of being criticized..."
Mrs. Wang confessed honestly, she did not hide anything from her brother, she had full trust.
"But after that, Mr. Xiang often had nightmares. He was chanting about the Tang family, his lord, and his life. He woke up in the middle of the night. I turned around and asked him, but he didn't tell me. Speak out."
Isn't it said now...
Wang Zhan suddenly felt that it was a very correct decision to marry the girl out early, or he would be the one who sold out the family.
But it was also because he was the elder brother that the girl would tell him that she must be tight-lipped to outsiders. Otherwise, how could Zou Wenliang give things to his wife with confidence, and how could the outsiders not know that Zou Wenliang had made a fortune.
"This bastard must have done something shady, otherwise why would he be so scared that he would have nightmares in the middle of the night..."
Wang Zhan heard it from the girl's mouth, he had a bad feeling, and worried to continue asking,
"Sister, tell me again what you do on a fair day, we have to deal with it, if that bastard really did something, we have to kick him out quickly, so as not to be implicated and killed by him, he Working in the yamen, the people who can offend must be dignitaries."
"Brother, it's not that serious, my husband is actually quite timid..."
Lady Wang's face immediately turned pale, and she was a little frightened.
The more Wang Zhan thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. The main reason was that people who understood what the girl said could see that there was a problem. It was only his sister who didn't understand anything and who thought her husband was a fool could not see it.
It's just that Mrs. Wang doesn't care much about her husband's outside affairs, and Zou Wenliang doesn't like talking about the yamen with his wife, because he thinks his wife is stupid, and she doesn't understand if she talks about it, and it is easy to cause trouble if there are too many people.
So in the end, Wang Zhan couldn't ask any more questions. He only knew that his brother-in-law had made a fortune, and he didn't know what he did.
"Damn it, what the hell did Zou Wenliang, that bastard, do? Don't involve us in the Wang family's funeral..."
Wang Zhan went home worried.
It's not that he is worrying unfoundedly, but that there are many people who have been implicated by their in-laws, so he can't help worrying.
……
at the same time.
After Wang Zhan left, Tang Yu hurriedly asked people to investigate what happened to Wang Zhan and Zou Wenliang.
After learning that although the two are related by marriage, their relationship is not good, they have a plan in mind.
He is not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs. This Wang Zhan is the breakthrough to break the secret of Ding Chang and his gang.
"003, help me buy a one-time psychological suggestion..."
Tang Yu contacted 003 and didn't feel sorry for the points anymore. The tyrant is easy to coax now, and the points came back with a hug, happy.
*********
69. Psychological suggestion Wang Zhan
After the system bought the gold finger, Tang Yu was not in a hurry to use it immediately, but let people continue to watch Wang Zhan's contact with the Zou family.
Because he is very much concerned by the gentry in Licheng now, there is no guarantee that anyone will be watching him around, and who knows if the tyrant has arranged any hidden guards by his side, so be careful in everything, every time he uses the golden finger, he calls 003 checked the surrounding environment.
If Mao rashly let Wang Zhan listen to him, a fool can see that something is wrong.
The system is the foundation of one's own life, and it cannot be exposed. As for the tyrant who can hide it from the future, let's talk about it. It's really impossible to make up nonsense about gods descending to earth to choose emperors. Isn't feudal superstitious society just like to do this? .
During the surveillance, Tang Yu discovered that Wang Zhan Mingming had a bad relationship with the Zou family, but recently he kept going to the Zou family.
It stands to reason that Wang Zhan was kicked out of the Yamen by him, shouldn't he be more anxious to find a way to save the business, why did he seem to be not thinking about business these two days, but often went to see his sister?
The more he felt that Wang Zhan was suspicious, and when the fire was almost ready, Tang Yu asked someone to arrest him quietly.
"You you you, who are you?"
Leng Buding was caught in a strange place, surrounded by four or five masked men in black, and sitting on the main seat was a man in a fancy dress but with a mask of fangs. Wang Zhan was almost frightened by the battle. peed.
In the past few days, he has been tortured a lot by the idea of "suspecting that his brother-in-law committed a serious crime of beheading". The Wang family is just an ordinary businessman, and ordinary people are afraid of the government, so they are very timid.
As long as he thought about what his brother-in-law had done in the yamen, which might cause his family to be buried with him, Wang Zhan was so frightened that he couldn't sleep, and couldn't sleep or eat.
Suddenly encountering this situation, the first reaction in his mind was that his brother-in-law's crimes were exposed and his family was implicated!
After investigation, Tang Yu naturally knew that he was timid, so he threatened without guilt,
"Wang Zhan, do you know what brought you here today?"
Wang Zhan made a trembling voice, "My lord, I don't know my villain..."
"Bang!" Tang Yu slapped the table heavily, "You dare to argue with me, you are Zou Wenliang's brother-in-law, you dare to say you don't know what he did!"
It's really Zou Wenliang's bastard.
Wang Zhan vomited blood in his heart and kowtowed to beg for mercy, "Please forgive me, my lord. I really don't know. Although the villain and Zou Wenliang are related by marriage, the relationship between our two families is not good. My lord, please forgive me. What did that bastard Zou Wenliang do?" It's really not about villains, I don't have much contact with the Zou family on weekdays..."
"If you have no relationship, why are you still acting under the banner of Zou Wenliang outside? Don't lie to me. If you don't tell me the truth, I will cut off your limbs before asking questions!"
Tang Yu's voice became angry and continued to scare.
"Forgive me, my lord. I really don't care about villains. Xiaozhen has nothing to do with Zou Wenliang. I used him as a banner because the family business is about to fail. I want to cooperate with the Yamen to support it, so I have to bite the bullet and do it." , I want to know what Zou Wenliang has done, and I have nothing to do with him if he is killed, please learn from me."
Wang Zhan cried anxiously. He really hadn't been in touch with Zou Wenliang for thousands of years. This time, he suddenly got along with Zou Wenliang. What's the matter?
Perhaps seeing his sincerity, the adults in the seat were skeptical, "Really?"
"Really, it's more real than real gold! My lord, I really don't know what Zou Wenliang did. If you want to know, just arrest him and torture him to extract a confession. That bastard is very timid, and he will definitely not be able to resist interrogation."
"My lord, I really have nothing to do with the Zou family. The only contact I have with the Zou family is to see my sister. The neighbors of the Zou family and the merchants I know can testify that I have no contact with the Zou family on weekdays. I want to talk to him." If the relationship is good, my business will definitely not be bad, if you don’t believe me, please go and check..."
Wang Zhan nodded fiercely, and made an idea without hesitation. A dead fellow is not a poor fellow, and Zou Wenliang should take responsibility for what he does, so he can't be dragged down.
"If I can directly torture him to extract a confession, why do I need you? Well, since you really don't know, then I won't embarrass you."
Tang Yu snorted coldly with a hoarse voice.
"Thank you, my lord, for your insight, thank you, my lord."
Wang Zhan was delighted and quickly kowtowed.
But who knows that the adults in the seat turned around again, "Don't kowtow in a hurry, I won't embarrass you, but I didn't say to let you go..."
Wang Zhan turned into mourning in seconds, feeling that he was really unlucky.
"Wang Zhan, I thought that you did not conspire with the Zou family. It is not difficult for you at this time, but you and the Zou family are related by marriage. If he committed a crime, your Wang family should not try to escape easily. Based on your relationship, who would believe you are innocent?"
"To tell you the truth, we are the 'Supervision Division', a secret department of the imperial court, directly under His Majesty's management. Our duty is to monitor and inspect corrupt officials in various government offices. Ordinary people don't know that we exist...Now we have received news, your brother-in-law Zou Wenliang participated in a very huge conspiracy, once this matter is found out, it will be the crime of Zhu Jiu Clan, even if your sister is a married woman, her mother's family will also be implicated."
Tang Yu made up nonsense without blinking.
Anyway, Wang Zhan is not very clear about what is going on inside the yamen. If he had to be clear, he would not be stupid enough to bump into him. Besides, he said it was a secret department, and even the yamen didn't know about it. Is it normal?
However, for the sake of safety, while speaking, Tang Yu also secretly used the golden finger of the system to give spiritual hints to the other party.
"So, if you don't want your Wang family to suffer, then make amends and cooperate with our investigation of Zou Wenliang. If you don't cooperate, the Zou family will be investigated in the future, and you will be hiding the crime of your accomplices."
The fear in Wang Zhan's heart, which has been imprinted into the spiritual and psychological hints, was infinitely magnified, and he stammered, "I, I, I..."
"Don't worry, you do this in secret. If you don't succeed, I will intercede for you in the future; if you succeed, it will be a great achievement. Not only will you not have to suffer, but the government will reward you. Don't you want to do business with the government? When the time comes, I will give you a reward." I will give you advice to ensure that your Wang family's business will go smoothly in the future."
"Okay, you go back first, if you find any news, go to the temple outside the city to offer incense, and then the official will find you."
After a burst of nonsense threats and lures, and leaving psychological hints to Wang Zhan, Tang Yu clapped his hands and asked people to leave.
After that, Wang Zhan went home in a trance, and had a nightmare that night...
In his dream, he dreamed that Zou Wenliang had committed a heinous crime. The government wanted to kill the Zou family. His sister and nephew were taken away crying.
I thought the matter was over, but the government came to arrest him the next day, saying that Zou Wenliang confessed and that he was also an accomplice in the crime.
"You don't need to quibble, Zou Wenliang has already confessed honestly that you are their accomplice in the conspiracy. All the gold and silver he got were buried in your family's farm wasteland. The evidence is convincing!"
The officials didn't listen to his explanation at all, so they arrested the Wang family as well.
Wang Zhan was in a state of anxiety, weeping and angry, Zou Wenliang, that heartless thing, actually harmed him like this, where did they come to conspire, what a confession!
When he was in the cell, he saw Zou Wenliang staring at him with a vicious smile on his face.
"You bastard, why do you want to kill me! Why do you want to kill me!"
"We are in-laws, you have to be buried with me, buried with me, buried with me, died together, died together..."
In the dream, Zou Wenliang laughed ferociously like the sound of an evil spirit calling for a soul.
Wang Zhan was so frightened that he woke up, sweating profusely, and his hands and feet were shaking.
As the saying goes, the bow of a cup and the shadow of a snake.
Wang Zhan, who was always thinking wildly and afraid of being implicated, became even more frightened after having this dream, and vaguely resented Zou Wenliang.
Indeed, even if he hadn't conspired with the other party, Zou Wenliang's personality was uncertain. What if he was buried with him in order to mitigate his charges, or when he became malicious?
Their relationship is not good, and it is very likely that they will be wronged. Whoever says that people are about to die is good, some people have such vicious thoughts, and they are not willing to die and drag people to be buried with them.
Trembling in his heart, with countless doubts, the more Wang Zhan thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he hurried to Zou's house to look for Mrs. Wang.
"Sister, where did your husband tell you to hide the gold and silver?"
Don't be like in his dream.
"In our farm, that is our family's wasteland. It has been left untouched and no one has touched it. My husband said that he will take it out after the limelight..."
Mrs. Wang confessed honestly.
Wang Zhan petrified, looking at his sister's trust in her husband, old blood welled up in his chest.How could this kind of stolen goods be buried in the fields of their family? There are really too many to count when the incident happened!
Besides, it's not good, it was Zou Wenliang's intention, just waiting to be exposed to push the Wang family to take the blame, saying that the Wang family is the mastermind and the Zou family is the accomplice!
After Wang Zhan left Zou's house full of old blood, dreaming images kept flashing in his mind, thinking about various interests, and feeling terrified.
Is their Wang family really going to share troubles with the Zou family?That can't be, the Zou family didn't share wealth with them, why.
What's more, what Zou Wenliang committed was a major crime of punishing the nine clans. If it is really found out, there is no reason to beg for mercy...
After careful consideration, Wang Zhan firmly decided that it is better to die as a fellow Taoist than to be a poor Taoist, so he rushed to the temple outside the city to burn incense and send a signal to Tang Yu.
Zou Wenliang is responsible for the good deeds he has done, so he cannot implicate the Wang family!
After being taken to the secret room again, Wang Zhan was no longer afraid when he saw the adult with the mask of fangs and the official servant in black, and instead had a different sense of security.
He has done nothing wrong, so what is he afraid of, what should be afraid of is that bastard Zou Wenliang.
"My lord, Mr. Wang is willing to kill his relatives righteously. Zou Wenliang should be punished for breaking the law. It's just that the villain is stupid and doesn't know what to do. Please tell me clearly."
Wang Zhan knelt on the ground respectfully and tremblingly,
"In addition... I also hope that my lord can give Wang some peace of mind, and really keep my Wang family and my sister from being implicated. Please atone for my sin, villain, villain is timid and afraid."
After all, he is still an adult, he still has the vigilance he should have, and he is also afraid of being cheated by others.
Since ancient times, there have been few things like killing donkeys and running dogs.
"You are alert. In that case, I will write you a secret letter and give you a token. In this way, you can feel at ease."
Knowing that the other party might have such a request, Tang Yu took out the things he had prepared earlier.
Wang Zhan took the things and carefully observed the metal of the casting token. It is a material only available and used by the government, and non-government people must not make fake ones, so he can rest assured.
"Please advise, my lord."
Wang Zhan packed his things happily, and was a little excited about going to cheat his brother-in-law.
