Thank you sir, he is still outputting!

"So Feng Ruiming is jealous of the profits brought by the deep nectar, and wants to buy your tea mountain at a low price?"

Xie Zhao frowned, and after hearing Yuan Niang's narration of the entanglement, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "In terms of shamelessness, who can compare to this pair of father and son."

What the father does is the household secretary who manages the land tax, and the son takes advantage of his strong relationship to maliciously buy good land from the people. Isn’t this self-stealing?

People who have suffered can't sue.

Yuanniang wrapped Xiaofeng in her arms, and said in a low voice: "Actually, this is not the first time Mr. Feng has done such a thing. There are countless people in the capital who have been oppressed by him, but with Lord Shangshu and the imperial concubine behind, no one dares to do it." Against him, everyone can only swallow the pain in their stomachs."

She sighed: "Actually, I don't have to fight against him, it's just that the land of Chashan was a reward my late husband got after returning from the army. How can I trade it with others? The second ancestor of the wine bag and rice bag."

Xie Zhao snorted, a little puzzled.

Land is not something that can be rewarded at will in Dayu. Most of the officers and soldiers who have retired from the army will only be promoted or get some gold and silver, and very few will give land.

What did Yuan Niang's husband do to get the land reward?

Since he was surprised by this, he naturally asked it out of his mouth.

Who would have thought that Yuan Niang, who was still speaking fluently just now, started to hesitate at this moment. She raised her eyes to look at Xie Zhao, her eyes were a little complicated, and she pursed her lips and replied, "Because my husband... used to be from Xie Jiajun."

Xie Jiajun...?

When Xie Zhao heard these familiar yet unfamiliar words, he was in a daze for a moment: This Xie family army was the army created by his biological father Xie Yan, whom he had never met.

Before Xie Jiajun was born, Beiyan's iron cavalry made people fearful; after Xie Jiajun was born, Beiyan never dared to invade Dayu's land again.

Xie Jiajun's legend is the same as Xie Yan's, no matter how many years have passed, it will be remembered by everyone in Dayu.

Even though Xie Yan has passed away now, and the commander-in-chief of Xie's army has been replaced by Liao Yuan, as long as Xie's army is still stationed at the border, the hearts of the people in Dayu will be settled.

The Holy Majesty has shown great favor to Xie Yan, and also rewarded these heroic fighters in the Xie family army who defended their home and the country generously.

In this way, if Yuanniang's husband had really served in the Xie family's army, it would not be surprising to be awarded these lands.

Xie Zhao's mind was flexible, and he quickly realized what was going on.

He asked Yuan Niang: "Did Pan Yue lure me here on purpose?"

A little red appeared on Yuanniang's face.

She nodded in embarrassment: "I... I can't fight Mr. Feng alone, and I can't keep the land my husband bought with his years of military career, so I can only think of other ways..."

Her voice became smaller and smaller: "It just so happens that Master Pan and my late husband have been friends for many years, and Master Pan is a colleague of Master Xie..."

Everything after that made sense.

Yuanniang's husband used to work under Xie Zhao's father, and Xie Zhao himself is a censor, so he is also responsible for impeaching this kind of thing. In addition, he and Feng Ruiming have a feud. If Xie Zhao sees Feng Ruiming to force Yuanniang Naturally, he would not sit idly by when selling the land.

In fact, Xie Zhao did make the move as Yuanniang had expected.

Yuan Niang lowered her head, not daring to look at Xie Zhao: "It was my idea to set up a trap for Mr. Xie. Mr. Pan just feels sorry for my orphan and widowed mother. Mr. Xie, please don't blame him."

After a pause, she gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't want to go through this muddy water, just pretend that what happened today never happened."

"You don't have to provoke me."

Xie Zhao glanced at her, and said lightly: "You also understand in your heart that I will not refuse to help with matters involving Xie Jiajun."

Yuanniang was overjoyed immediately, she took Xiaofeng's hand and was about to kneel on the ground together: "Thank you so much! I think my husband, Quanxia, ​​knows, and must be grateful to you."

Xie Zhao supported her and Xiaofeng, and sighed: "Next time you can just talk about this kind of thing directly, why go around such a big circle? You are not tired, I am tired for you."

He was no longer interested in drinking tea, and said goodbye to Yuanniang and Xiaofeng: "I will go back and report to the doctor at Yushitai and Zhongcheng about Feng Shangshu and his son. It must be only a matter of time before Feng Shangshu is impeached. Yuanniang Just rest well with Xiaofeng and wait for my news."

Coming out of the teahouse, Fu Ling saw Xie Zhao bowed his head and said nothing, and asked him, "Are you not happy about being put together?"

Xie Zhao shook his head: "Not really. Their mother and son depend on each other for life, so it's not a bad thing to be smart."

Fu Ling asked again: "Are you really going to impeach Feng Shangshu?"

Xie Zhao snorted softly, "Since he dared to do such a thing, it is normal to be impeached."

His tone was puzzled, "I'm just wondering, as a third-rank minister, he shouldn't be short of money, why would he let his only son do such a thing?"

Fu Ling replied: "For some people, money spent in officialdom is a bottomless pit."

Seeing Xie Zhao's clear expression, he continued: "What's more, it's hard to fill the desire. Feng Ruiming is used to being extravagant and everyone does his duty. It is said that he once spent a lot of money in the place of fireworks. Rao is a third-rank Shangshu. In fact, he can't afford such a big burden expenses."

Xie Zhao remembered that Feng Ruiming wanted a row of expensive and bright jade pendants around his waist.

He curled his lips: "This Feng Ruiming has no brains, but he has a lot of guts."

Fu Ling said in a low voice, "They're actually taking advantage of this loophole...they're going to get into trouble, and they can turn this 'forced buying and selling' into a 'normal transaction'."

He asked Xie Zhao: "Concubine Feng Gui and King Cheng may not be unaware of this, do you really want to suffer this bad luck and become a thorn in the side of Concubine Gui and King Cheng?"

The two had already walked back to Xueya Street.

Xie Zhao snorted, and childishly kicked the small stone on the ground a few meters away.

He put his hands behind his back, looked at Fu Ling, raised his chin slightly, and asked, "Do you think I will be afraid?"

Fu Ling looked at the youthful vigor in his eyebrows and eyes, and unconsciously smiled on his lips.

He smiled and said, "Master Xie is certainly not afraid."

Xie Zhao is really not afraid.

When he went to work at Yushitai the next day, he went straight to Dou Shun and reported the matter one by one.It just so happened that He Fang was there too, and when he heard this, he immediately went on the rampage, so angry that his beard was blown up: "Bold as hell! Bravely as a dog! This Feng Delin is as bold as a dog!"

Xie Zhao, who was still stern, couldn't help but chuckle when he heard three bold words in a row.

He thinks Mr. He who is so angry is cute.

He Fang glared at Xie Zhao, and condemned: "How can you laugh when you encounter such a thing!"

Xie Zhao quickly suppressed his laughter, and scolded with him: "Master He is right, this father and son surnamed Feng are really outrageous!"

Only then did He Fang show a satisfied look.

He turned to Dou Shun angrily and said, "Not only did Feng Delin dare to buy an official for his son, but now he dares to bully the people and take away the good land from the soldiers. It's really hateful!"

He asked Ying: "Master Dou! Tomorrow I must impeach him again! This time I must make him suffer!"

Xie Zhao echoed at the side: "Master He is right! Feng Delin is an official for a day, and the people in the capital will live in a fiery life. Lord Dou, as censors, we should report to the Holy Majesty!"

Dou Shun looked at the indignant He Fang and the fanciful Xie Zhao, and felt his head hurt badly.

He thought, He Fang would be enough for him, and now that Xie Zhao is here, the days are getting more and more lively.

"Impeachment is a must, but we can't impeach immediately."

Dou Shun sighed and looked towards He Fang: "Do you still remember the reason why you failed to be impeached last time?"

Seeing that He Fang was stunned, he slowly said: "Because you don't have enough evidence to prove that he did make a mistake."

He Fang was not reconciled: "Then why don't we allow him to do evil again!"

Dou Shun comforted the two people in front of him: "I will find someone to prepare the evidence, please stay calm and don't be impatient."

To prove this matter, the main thing is to collect witnesses.As long as those who are forced to do business with Feng Ruiming are called together, the success of impeachment is not difficult to achieve.

The biggest problem is how to persuade those people to stand up and confront Feng Ruiming, because most ordinary people don't want to confront Feng Delin and the forces behind him.

It is difficult to gather these people together to deal with Feng Delin and his son.

Dou Shun rubbed his temples: "Taking down Feng Delin is not a trivial matter, we should be more cautious, and we must not startle the snake with grass."

Dou Shun and Xie Zhao also understood this truth, even if they were unwilling, they could only stand still.

In the evening of this day, Xie Zhao came out from the Yushi Terrace, went to the street craftsmen as usual, and bought candied haws with money.

Just as he held the candied haws in his hands, he suddenly felt a weight on his shoulders, and then the young man's magnetic voice sounded in his ears: "Master, bring me a bunch of candied haws too."

Xie Zhao turned his head away.

Liao Qingfeng put one hand on Xie Zhao's shoulder and smiled brightly at Xie Zhao.

He greeted Xie Zhao warmly: "Hello, Mr. Xie."

Xie Zhao raised his eyebrows: "It's Lord Liao."

"Don't call me Master Liao, Master Liao, it sounds uncomfortable."

Liao Qingfeng's arm came down from Xie Zhao's shoulder.

He took the candied haws, followed Xie Zhao's pace, bit a candied haws into his mouth, and said vaguely: "My name is Liao Qingfeng, and the word is Shen An. It's fine for Mr. Xie to call me by my name or Shen An." .”

Xie Zhao said politely, "Isn't that good?"

"What's wrong, if you don't call me, I will call first."

Liao Qingfeng swallowed the candied haws in twos and twos, "Xie Zhao Xie Zhao Xie Zhao——I'll call your full name before you write. There's an adult on this side and an adult on the other all day long. My head is going to be big .”

Xie Zhao, who was called by his first name, twitched at the corner of his mouth, speechless at this young and distinctive leader of the Jinwu Guard.

His name was being called, and Xie Zhao couldn't suffer, so he simply said, "Liao Qingfeng?"

Liao Qingfeng responded, patted Xie Zhao's back vigorously, and said with a smile: "I like your straightforward personality!"

He looked at Xie Zhao, "I didn't expect you to look like a mother-in-law, but you have a neat personality."

Look like a mother-in-law?

Xie Zhao, who had never been evaluated like this before, laughed back angrily, and mocked: "Then I am not as rough as you."

In fact, Liao Qingfeng was handsome, so he couldn't be called rough.

But he was not angry when he was said that. He glanced at the candied haws in Xie Zhao's hand, and felt that Xie Zhao was really to his liking: Liao Qingfeng was often ridiculed for his love of candied haws. Xie Zhao, king of stomach, was naturally happy in his heart.

——He thought that the bunches of candied haws that Xie Zhao bought were all eaten by himself.

So the leader of the Jinwu Guard, who is not very rough but has a really rough personality, smiled, and lightly bumped Xie Zhao's shoulder in public, and the two brothers asked him kindly: "Xie Zhao, I think you are very pleasing to the eye." , to be a brother?"
