You Can't Be Fierce Towards Me!

Li Guanshi's face turned pale, and after a long silence, he said hoarsely, "I'll say."

"I have some friendship with shopkeeper Zhao in private. He came to me last night and said that a big customer wanted good round-grained rice, but the rice shop didn't have enough rice. He wanted to borrow some from me. When the rice shop arrived, Return it immediately."

His face was full of bitterness, "I think I helped him for the sake of our friendship for many years. Who would have thought that I would meet the young master to check the inventory."

Fu Tian sneered, his words were full of loopholes, and he seemed to want to kill him and refused to admit it, "Then how do you explain that Xiaoer asked me to go to Zhao's house to buy grain, and where did the rice in this warehouse go? I am It's a hundred stones."

"Master, I really don't know...the reason there is no food in the warehouse is because it has not been delivered from Zhuangzi after it is sold out. As for Li Er... Li Erxu was bought by the Zhao family!"

With cold sweat dripping down his forehead, Guanshi Li suddenly knelt down and walked up to Fu Tian to grab Fu Tian's clothes.

Li Er, who was left behind by Chu Xiangtian, raised his head and wanted to refute, but met Li Guanshi's dark eyes, and then lowered his head without saying a word.

Fu Huang saw this scene in his eyes, and sneered, "You think you'll be fine if you kill yourself and refuse to admit it? Don't forget. Your contract of prostitution is still in Fu's house."

Hearing this, Guanshi Li trembled, but still lowered his head and did not make a sound.

Fu Huang exchanged glances with the others. Li Guanshi refused to plead guilty because he was so bitten to death, it must be because there were more serious or more fearful things threatening him than now.

As long as he doesn't plead guilty, and Fu Tian and the others can't find other evidence to prove that he colluded with the Zhao family's rice shop to steal the rice store's grain, then the government can't convict him. The most serious consequence of Li Guanshi is to face Fu Tian's censure—— His contract of prostitution is in Fu's family, so his life and death are in Fu Tian's hands.

But now he is obviously not afraid of this, even though Fu Tian threatened him so much, he is still unwilling to speak the truth.

Fu Huang had a vague guess in his heart. Li Guanshi was nearly 40 years old this year, and he had three daughters in total, and finally gave birth to a son, and this son was said to be smart since childhood...

"I heard that Guanshi Li's youngest son is going to take the imperial examination this autumn?"

Fu Tian suddenly changed the subject, and said in a neutral tone.

Li Guanshi suddenly looked up at him, his eyes horrified.

He gave birth to three daughters in succession, and finally gave birth to this one son, so he was doted on like an eyeball since he was a child. Fortunately, the only son was also up-to-date, smart and up-to-date, and was always praised by the master in school. If you take the imperial examination, you may be able to become a scholar.He was overjoyed when he heard that, so that his son would not be affected by his status as a servant, he even worked a lot and put him under the name of a cousin.

He saved so much money, and it was all for his only son. If his son became an official in the future, he would only be able to manage money if he had money.

What he never expected was that he capsized the boat in the gutter with a careless move.There have been no accidents in the business for so many years, but now that the incident is exposed, there is no room for refutation.

If he bowed his head and pleaded guilty, after the government sentenced him, he would be guilty, and his son's bright future would be ruined.

Gritting his teeth tightly, Guanshi Li looked at Fu Tian fixedly, his chest heaving up and down like a dilapidated bellows, he gasped for breath, and after a while, he lowered his head slumped and stopped talking.

Seeing that he didn't eat oil and salt, Fu Huang was already a little impatient. Although he had a good temper, he was not to be manipulated by others. This moth almost emptied Fu's rice shop, but now he wanted to negotiate terms with him. He thought too kindly.

"Do you think you can save your son's future if you bite him to death?"

Fu Tian narrowed his eyes, "I have plenty of ways to prevent him from taking the imperial examination."

"Just think about it."

After finishing speaking, Fu Huang walked to the small study next to him with his hands behind his back. He was impatient to talk to Guanshi Li again. It would be best if Guanshi Li could voluntarily explain clearly. After all, this also involved the Zhao family's rice shop, and they dared to take the initiative to provoke the Fu family. Of course, Fu Tian couldn't let them go.Li Guanshi voluntarily pleaded guilty and explained clearly, which can save a lot of trouble.

But if he didn't say anything, it didn't mean that there was no way to punish the Zhao family.

Fu Tian was so angry that he walked with the wind, sat down on the chair angrily, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, and the anger in his chest subsided a little.

Fu Ji refilled another cup of tea for him, bowed his body and asked, "Do you need me to bring Manager Li's youngest son here?"

Fu Tian waved his hand and took another sip of tea, "Don't worry yet."

That's what I said just now, but the Fu family is still a good citizen after all, it's best to hand over this kind of matter to the government, so as not to get a reputation of being a bully.

"Why don't I go and beat him up, and after one beat, he'll say everything." Chang Xi said roughly.

"You know how to fight and kill, when can you grow your brains?" Chu Xiangtian kicked him in dissatisfaction.

"..." Chang Xi, who was kicked, shrank into a corner and remained silent.

Fu Tian ignored them, his attention was attracted by a pot of Clivia on the shelf.

The appearance of the Clivia is very good, but the broad leaves are slightly wilting at this time, and the orange-red flowers are hanging down listlessly, looking half-dead.

Fu Tian paid attention to it because: this Clivia has been calling for help in a low voice.

Clivia's voice was weak, but it could be heard very clearly in the quiet study room. Fu Huang twitched his brows, looked around, picked up a kettle by the window, and poured water on Clivia who was still calling for help. water.

The others watched his sudden movement inexplicably.

Clivia, who finally drank the water, became more energetic, and thanked Fu Tian in a childish voice.

"Thank you, you are such a nice person."

This pot of Clivia should have a very lively personality. Compared with Wen Tian who first saw the two peonies, he was not afraid of life. He had just been watered, and although the leaves were still limp, his voice was already joyful.

"You saved my life, let me tell you a secret in return." Clivia said cheerfully.

Fu Tian frowned slightly, and stood quietly in front of the flower pot without responding or moving.

Clivia didn't care whether he could understand her own words or not, so she said to herself: "Move my flower pot to the window, there is a small grid on the wall behind me, and there are many good things hidden in it." .”

After Clivia finished speaking, seeing him not moving, she suddenly came to her senses, and murmured in disappointment: "So you don't understand, I still want to bask in the sun."

As soon as it finished speaking, Fu Tian moved. He picked up Clivia and placed it by the sunny window. Fu Tian turned back and knocked on the wall behind the flowerpot. Empty sound, it really is hollow.

Fu Tian turned his head, "This is hollow."

other people:"???"

Everyone saw that he suddenly ran to water the Clivia, and then stood still in front of the flower pot. Now he suddenly took the flower pot away, saying that the wall was hollow. This change was so fast that everyone was silent for a while.

It was Chu Xiangtian who came to his senses, stepped forward and tried to knock on the wall, and the sound that came out was indeed empty, he frowned, and knocked slowly on the wall for a while, Chu Xiangtian frowned, and moved his fingers hard. With the next press, a piece of the flat wall suddenly bulged.

Push the protruding piece aside to reveal the dark grid inside.

Behind the wall is a small dark compartment, with a stack of silver bills on the outermost side, some gold, silver and jade piled in the middle, and a few books stacked on the innermost side of the dark compartment.Regardless of the banknotes and jade, Chu Xiangtian took out the books and flipped through them, and suddenly laughed, "Account books."

Fu Tian took it and flipped through a few pages. He could roughly understand the account book before reconciliation, but the content recorded in this account book is much more complicated.

Putting the account book into his sleeve, Fu Tian said, "Let Xiao Qiao and Brother Zhou take a look."

Chu Xiangtian took out all the things in the secret compartment, and there were thousands of taels of silver bills inside, not to mention other gold, silver and jade.

"How did you find out here?" Chu Xiangtian clicked his tongue and asked curiously, even he didn't realize that there was a hidden compartment here.

Fu Tian pursed his lips, his eyes flickered for a moment and said, "Intuition."

Chu Xiangtian: "..."

He observed Fu Tian's obviously guilty expression, fell silent for a while and decided to pretend to believe it, "...All right."

Seeing that he didn't ask any more questions, Fu Tian breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly changed the subject: "Let's meet up with Brother Zhou and the others first, and then let Xiao Qiao look at the account books."

So a group of people took Li Guanshi and Li Er who were limp on the ground, and went to Zhao's Mipu to join Zhou Chuanqing and the others.
