51, Blackwater City
Liu Xian is late.
"Xiaguan see the prince."
Chu Ling sneered: "It's not too late for this king to see Lord Liu coming. ”
"You, an official, if you don't want to be an official, just roll out and make room for others."
Liu Xian was shocked into a cold sweat, and he was busy: "The lower officials understand, please forgive the prince." ”
At this time, Fu Shu and Ying Yi came back with the comprehensive volume.
Liu Xian was shocked again, what does this Fu Shu want to do.
Chu Ling asked directly: "The people in the yamen." ”
Liu Xian took the time to glare at Fu Shu, this guy who has more than enough success and more than failure, he thought that he was finished, and he could be safe.
Fu Shu saw that he was not only not only there, nor did he dodge, and gave him an apologetic smile back.
Liu Xian said: "Usually there is nothing to do in the yamen, and the lower officials will occasionally give them holidays." ”
"No, Master Fu is working in the yamen."
Fu Shu replied: "It's still good for adults." ”
In a word, you let me stay.
Chu Ling casually picked out a few comprehensive volumes, handed them to Ying Yi, and said to Liu Xian, "Arrange a place to live." ”
Liu Xiancheng said with trepidation: "The lower officials obey the order." ”
Seeing people leaving, Liu Xian breathed a sigh of relief.
turned to Fu Shu and said, "You won't do anything, will you?" ”
Fu Shu still said with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth: "What are you thinking, you and I are grasshoppers on a rope, I will not cut myself off." ”
"And those scrolls?"
Fu Shu said: "Don't worry, my lord, it was prepared before, and Lord Qin personally checked it." ”
Liu Xian was reassured, or Qinling was prescient.
He asked, "So what's next?" ”
"I'm going to inform Lord Qin."
Liu Xian heard the contempt in his words and said, "I have already asked the housekeeper to inform Lord Qin. I'm asking you what you're going to do next. ”
Fu Shu said: "My lord, just do your part, and Lord Qin is here for the rest." ”
After speaking, he left straight and said, "Xiaguan will go to eat first." ”
If Qin Ling hadn't taken a fancy to Fu Shu, he would have killed him a long time ago.
Liu Xian couldn't let out his anger, and yelled at the pillar: "Why don't you go and get people back, a group of rice buckets." ”
Ye Xuanqing and Nangong Mo walked leisurely on the street.
The prosperity of Blackwater City is no worse than that of Yingdu.
Nangong Mo said: "Sister Yun, I used to think that the prosperity of Jiangnan was one of the best in Southern Chu, but now that I have come to Blackwater City, there is not much to be done here." ”
Ye Xuanqing nodded, pointed to the teahouse not far away and said, "Let's go, let's go there and rest." ”
The two of them directly found a seat in the lobby and sat down, ordered a few plates of snacks and a pot of tea.
At this time, there were many people in the teahouse, and the storyteller was dancing with his eyebrows, and he was full of energy, which attracted a round of applause.
Until someone stuffed a note for Ye Xuanqing.
Ye Xuanqing said to Nangong Mo: "Mo'er, go." ”
When the two went out, Fu Shu was coming in, and Ye Xuanqing looked at him a few more times, only to think that he had a brilliant temperament.
When the two of them arrived at the other garden, Chu Ling and the others had been inside for a long time.
At first glance, this courtyard is usually quietly served.
But their arrival has made it quieter.
Ye Xuanqing smiled: "You guys are so fast. ”
Chu Ling: "Hmm. ”
Ye Xuanqing asked, "Did the prince find anything?" ”
Chu Ling shook his head, "None." ”
In this case, if Liu Xian is to be punished, he can only be punished for one crime of dereliction of duty.
But judging from what happened just now, Liu Xian was a straw bag, but Fu Shu had no reason to move.
Liu Xianzan couldn't move.
"We've made discoveries." Ye Xuanqing said with a smile.
Nangong Mo wondered, didn't they just go shopping down the street and drink some tea.
Ye Xuanqing said, "Mo'er, we met a few rouge shops just now."
Nangong Mo thought for a while and said: "We went to Rouge Street, there are about five or six big ones, there are about twenty small ones, and there are even more small traders. ”
Jiang Pingzhou snorted and said, "What do you call this discovery?" "It's not normal.
"Blackwater City is famous for its abundance of rouge, and it stands to reason that there should be a lot of rouge origins, but the few big ones we saw all bear the logo of the Qin family." Ye Xuanqing analyzed: "The middle ones more or less have the shadow of the Qin family. ”
"As for the petty traders, don't mention it."
In other words, the rouge lifeline of the entire Blackwater City is in the hands of the Qin family, and if others want to get a piece of the pie, they have to look at the Qin family's face.
However, it is taboo to let one family dominate. When each local court supports one family, it will also support another family so that they can check and balance each other, so that the court can be more profitable. But Blackwater City left it alone.
This is not much different from the news she got from Tianji Pavilion, and this place is indeed dominated by the Qin family.
The difficulty is that the government and businessmen protect each other, how do they start.
In the end, Chu Ling said, "Go to the yamen tomorrow morning." ”
If you can't do it, start with the case, and those who have ghosts in their hearts will show their feet.
Qin Mansion.
Qin Ling looked at Liu Xian coldly and said, "Since you know the danger, what are you going to do." ”
"Is the tail swept clean?"
Liu Xian trembled and didn't speak, he just came because he was too scared, who asked Qin Ling not to give him a letter.
For the sake of his own life, he naturally wanted to come here.
Qin Ling raised his forehead and said, "You go back first, just do things normally, if you are caught by Chu Ling, no one can protect you." ”
"But, sir."
"Stop" Qin Ling interrupted him and said: "Don't call me Lord in the future, how can I afford to be a businessman, since Chu Ling didn't punish you at the beginning, then why are you panicking, it's too long." ”
Liu Xian still left the Qin Mansion in fright, and when he left, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved, and it was too small to be checked.
Qin Ling said: "Putuo, prepare a pen." ”
He quickly took a letter of resignation, sealed it, handed it to Putuo, and said, "Let Chen Sheng send it to Yingdu, quickly." ”
Putuo: "Yes." ”
When Qin Ling learned that Chu Ling was coming, his heart was a little flustered, he was afraid that Chu Ling knew something.
He looked up to Chu Gang and lived, there has never been a problem for so many years, which year, when the people of the imperial court came to Blackwater City, they were not all respectful to him, he knew that they were guided by Chu Ran.
Although he was a businessman, he enjoyed the treatment of an official of the imperial court.
However, this time Chu Ling came by himself, and there was no news before, so it can be seen that Chu Ling did not know that he came.
It is necessary to let Chu Yun come before Chu Ling's hands.
Qin Ling asked, "Is Fu Shu here?" ”
Putuo said: "Back to the master, Master Fu has asked you to tell you that the Hades King is here, but he has not appeared. ”
Qin Ling sighed and said, "If Liu is half clever with Fu Shu, I don't have to be so anxious. ”
"Should I have deposed Liu Xian a long time ago?"
Putuo said: "But Lord Liu is obedient. ”
Qin Ling also felt that Liu Xian had an obedient advantage, Fu Shu was too smart, this kind of person made him know too much and was easy to be killed, so it was better to use it to lead Liu Xian and make him more obedient.
