"Even I feel chills for Your Majesty! When state affairs are at the forefront, His Majesty persuades people to donate, and one by one they only donate a little. I thought it was because the court officials were poor...... Unexpectedly, behind the scenes, the children and nephews in the family can spend money like dirt. ”

Qiu Pengcheng suddenly raised his voice and said, "This is how you treat Your Majesty? ”

Wen Heren trembled suddenly.

He naturally understood what Qiu Pengcheng meant.

But he was aggrieved.

Bai Yizhang, the household servant who advocated the donation, only donated five hundred taels himself, how could the second brother, a member of the household department, donate more than his boss?

The Manchu Dynasty officials, there are more people who donate less than the second brother, why do they find their own home?

Thinking like this, Wen Heren was afraid and angry in his heart.

If you want to add sin, why bother?!

Which official in the world is not greedy? Which merchant doesn't exploit? Whose children are not more profligate than their own sons?

Your Majesty can't raise the money himself, why should he take the Wen family?!

Just because the Wen family has no power now.

People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden.

You reopened the East Factory just to rob us of our money?!

His heart trembled with anger, but Wen Heren did not show his face silently, and smiled at Qiu Pengcheng: "My lord, there must be a misunderstanding in this, my second brother has always been as clear as water as an official." ”

As he spoke, the smile on his face grew, and he explained, "Three generations of our family used to be in business, and we had a little savings back then. But now business is getting worse and worse. It's just some books and paper inkstones, how much silver can they sell? But doing business is more or less pompous. When the dog is outside, he often likes to brag about cowhide ......"

"Hahaha." Qiu Pengcheng's smile was dry: "Bragging? ”

"Hahaha," Wen Heren smiled and said, "My lord, you see that in this hall, these playthings are fake, hahahaha." ”

"This Dingyao porcelain, imitation, hahaha, adults look at this picture of ten thousand pine winds, it is also a fake......"

Qiu Pengcheng laughed dryly twice, his eyes full of coldness.

The sweat on Wen Heren's forehead kept dripping, and his voice became smaller and quieter.

"My lord, there is a gold-plated iron ingot in my house, my lord can take a look at ......"

With this sentence, a servant came up with a tray.

If it weren't for helplessness, Wen Heren would never dare to reveal his wealth.

But now in the face of these unreasonable fans, he has only one way.

Wen Hexiao is still only being detained in a public house, and once he is imprisoned, the Wen family will be pushed down by everyone.

At this time, the cloth on the tray was lifted, and the golden light flashed, and Wen Heren stared at Qiu Pengcheng's eyes.

Everyone knows how erosive the Taiping Division is. This plate of gold, anyone should be excited!

The next moment, I saw a flash in Qiu Pengcheng's eyes

Taunt.

Finished!

Wen Heren couldn't believe his eyes, someone didn't want his own gold?

At this moment, he had a premonition that it was over.

"You dare to bribe Lao Tzu." Qiu Pengcheng shouted angrily: "If you don't have a ghost in your heart, why bribe Lao Tzu?" It seems that the evidence in the case of Bai Hexiao and greedy ink is conclusive! ”

"This, this, this...... How can this be conclusive? ”

Wen Heren couldn't believe his ears, there was not a single evidence, how could it be conclusive? That's how you handle the case?

"Not convinced?" Qiu Pengcheng sneered: "If you don't accept it, you can go to the Imperial Prison with me."

Edict?

Wen Heren's heart trembled.

Forgot about this!

Huge fear shrouded down......

Qiu Pengcheng was frightened when he saw it, but he laughed and said, "This case is too easy to investigate." But don't worry, Your Majesty is generous and doesn't intend to ask for guilt. As long as you can make up the shortfall......"

As he spoke, Qiu Pengcheng sneered and whispered, "Two hundred thousand taels." ”

"Two days, only two days for you, donate enough to the treasury, and you will not be blamed for the past. Don't let your majesty down on your painstaking efforts. ”

Wen Heren stood stunned.

Lips twitched.

He didn't feel glad because of what Qiu Pengcheng said.

It's just that the emperor doesn't want to put everyone in danger, and wants to slowly squeeze out the Wen family.

The 200,000 taels of Wen can take it out.

But as long as you take out this money, the Wen family is finished!

Make up the shortfall?

Heh, once given this time, there will definitely be a next time. There are so many places in the world to use money, and when the time comes, the dog emperor will ask for it every day.

Since ancient times, which one has a good end for making up for the shortfall?

Bai He Xiaoxiao said: "My lord...... This gold...... Actually, it's gold-plated......."

"Until now, you still dare to be hard-mouthed." Qiu Pengcheng shouted: "Come on, search!" ”

Suddenly.

"Wait!"

With this shout, someone stepped in.

Qiu Pengcheng turned his head to look, but his eyes changed, and the person who came was Shen Xu, the secretary of the Taiping Division, and Wu Youcai, a thousand households behind him.

And look at the back, the household members Wailang Wen and Xiao have been put back!

Shen Xu, you fuck you.

After scolding like this in his heart, Qiu Pengcheng arched his hand and said, "I've seen Lord Shishi." ”

Shen Xu said lightly: "The official of the case has been clarified, the Wen family has no money, and he has not deceived His Majesty." ”

"But ......"

"This kiln porcelain is fake, this painting is fake, and this gold is also fake, don't you understand?"

Shen Xu said, raising his voice and saying, "In this Wen Mansion, only the plaque of Dun Chongshi Xue given by the Emperor is real!" ”

Qiu Pengcheng was extremely unwilling, and muttered: "But the prince is ......."

"Does the prince want you to worry about it!" Shen Xu scolded: "Don't you get out with your people, and don't look at where this is?!" ”

Qiu Pengcheng: "I ......"

Shen Xu shouted: "Shut up! Jiuqing's house and poetry and book door, is it a place where you, a vulgar martial artist, can bring people to be powerful?! ”

……

Call.

When the Taiping Division's Fanzi Yuguan retreated, the Wen family could be regarded as having survived this catastrophe without danger.

But this night was still a sleepless night for the people of the Wen family......

In the courtyard of Wenbo Jane.

Wen Hongda knelt on the cold bluestone slab.

After a long time, his second uncle and father came out.

"Stupid, I almost lost my family business because of you!" Wen Heren snorted angrily.

Wen Hongda said in a low voice: "The child knows his mistakes. ”

Wen Hexiao shook his head and said, "It's not just Qilang's fault in this matter. Over the years, His Majesty has wanted to hit us big clans more than once. ”

Wen Heren said: "Fortunately, my father has been prepared, and Jiang is still old and spicy." ”

Wen Hexiao sighed and said, "Father has seen the disaster of eunuch power. Now that His Majesty has reopened the East Factory, these people are acting in a lawless manner, and tonight's events can be seen. This is still the situation where Wang Fang's foothold is not stable. But if we let it continue like this, who knows if we will be able to hide next time? ”

Wen Heren said: "Then what should I do?" My father is also old, and he will ...... in the future."
