"Your Excellency is too rude, if you have something to say, everyone is a person who has read a book, how can there be a reason to do it indiscriminately?"

In the side hall, a young man who was friendly with the Feng family, or wanted to show favor to the Feng family, stood up and accused.

Jia Qiang was wiping her palms with a handkerchief, and when she heard this, she raised her eyebrows and looked at this person, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The person who spoke said faintly and proudly: "Bai Ziqing in the Xia Bai family." ”

Jia Qiang sneered and said, "Then do you know who I am?" ”

Bai Ziqing's smile was faintly strange, and he said, "Isn't Your Excellency a relative of Lord Yushi of the Yamen of the Salt Academy?" It's still from the capital......"

Jia Qiang said lightly: "The ancestor is the founder of the Eighth Duke of Ningguo, after I am a martial artist, the Jia family has always been a martial heirloom, I beat the dog who blocked the way, what's wrong?" ”

Since he was forced back to the Jia family by Emperor Taishang and Emperor Long'an, if the Jia family really has something to do in the future, it is impossible for him to run if he wants to, so wouldn't it be stupid to give up such a little convenience?

Therefore, Jia Qiang does not refuse to use the name of the ancestor to do some small things.

"You ......"

Bai Ziqing was stunned when he heard this, he really didn't think about it.

Because Dayan Chengping had been peaceful for too long, most of the noble relatives of Wuxun were confined to Beijing and were not allowed to have private relations with foreign ministers, so in fact, the external impact was quite small.

But when a martial disciple comes out and uses force to solve the problem, it is indeed not rude.

It's just that in Yangzhou Mansion, the strange Wuxun is just an outlier who doesn't act according to the mainstream rules of the world, and no one will like it......

Jia Qiang naturally understood this truth, he put away the handkerchief that had wiped his palm, and said lightly: "Although I am a martial artist, I am also a scholar. The reason why I don't reason with them and clarify right and wrong is because the truth and right and wrong are discussed with the gentlemen, not with the villains who are despicable. Today, although I am a junior, I am waiting for Lord Yushilin of the Salt Academy to come to celebrate the birthday of the old lady of the Mei family, but I am placed in the side hall...... Who is right and wrong here, I don't need to repeat it. Feng Jiazi is despicable and shameless, equating me with leaving to underestimate you, for such a person, do you want me to explain the reason to them? With you, you are willing to be reasonable, and you are not arrogant. It can be solved with the villain, and it is better to solve it by hand. ”

As soon as these words came out, most of the others secretly bowed their heads.

Only the Mei family's face is extremely ugly, and the Feng family is a villain, so what has become of the Mei family? Not even as good as a villain?

But he didn't have to wait for him to say anything, just saw Mei Xun, Mei Jiu and Feng Jian and other top figures in Yangzhou Mansion appear outside the foyer.

Feng Jian prides himself on being an upright person, and he has always taught his children strictly, and he favors these twin sons.

At this moment, seeing Feng Zuo and Feng You's two sons being knocked to the ground, although they were bleeding from their faces, they didn't even dare to scream, and they were distressed and angry, and shouted: "What a vicious method!" ”

After that, he turned his head to look at Mei Xun, and said angrily: "Brother Mei, today's matter, the Mei family should explain to my Feng family!" ”

Mei Xun's original intention was to take today's opportunity to clear up his relationship with the Yanyuan Yamen, which was about to be abolished, and secondly, he also wanted to make friends with the Feng family, the Xu family and other local nobles who had been in power in the government for generations.

I don't want to, it's still messed up in the end, and it's still the kind of chicken and egg beating......

Now, I was forced to make a choice.

Mei Xun looked at Jia Qiang with gloomy eyes, and Jia Qiang looked at Mei Xun like a mentally retarded person.

Seeing Jia Qiang's provocative gaze, Mei Xun's heart became more and more angry, and she said in a deep voice: "Even if you are a disciple of a high-ranking family in the capital, don't you know how to greet the elders when you see them?" ”

Jia Qiang's eyes became more and more contemptuous, and said: "My teacher Lin Yushi and Mr. Fu Weng have a relationship with each other, who is my elder here?" The Mei family was really dazzled, and they couldn't even recognize people. After a pause, he sneered and said: "Today, I know that the Mei family is a faction, okay, you send someone to the back to ask Aunt Mei, do you want to go back to the yamen with me now, or will the Yanyuan yamen send someone to pick it up later?" ”

"You don't take the Yamen of the Salt Courtyard to oppress people, the Son of Heaven has made a decree to abolish the Yamen of the Salt Courtyard, and the salt affairs will be under the control of the Governor of Liangjiang in the future! Today, you hurt someone in Mei's house, and if you don't give an explanation, don't want to leave! ”

Seeing that Jia Qiang was so contemptuous of the Mei family, Mei Jiu couldn't suppress her anger and roared loudly.

When Jia Qiang heard this, she suddenly realized, so it was!!

But then, he couldn't help but want to laugh out loud!

Lin Ruhai sent him and Aunt Mei to Meiyuan to celebrate his birthday at this time, which was clearly to show his love for the house and Wuzhizhi, and also to show that he wanted to protect the Mei family.

He is about to leave and will return to Beijing to take up his post.

But even if he returns to Beijing, will he still protect a Mei family?

With his achievements over the years, and his connections in Jiangnan officialdom over the years, is it difficult to protect a Mei family?

The Mei family only knew that Lin Ruhai didn't care much about them over the years, and he hadn't come to the door for many years, so he seemed to look down on them at all......

But they don't want to think about it, if there is really no light in the forest like the sea, just with this nest of straw bales, they also want to develop the Mei family to today's trend?

Because of the different patterns of vision, it also makes people's stupidity become bottomless.

After finally finding out the reason, Jia Qiang didn't bother to stay here, looked at Mei Jiu with cold eyes, and sneered: "Explain, your Mei family is also worthy of me to explain to you?" ”

At this time, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy in brocade who looked a little lazy in the side hall stood up and said with a smile: "Just now people were leaving, but Feng Zuo and Feng You had to stop people from leaving, and they didn't mention some words that were in response to people, or his two hands that moved first, but their skills were not as good as others......

"Xu Zhen, shut up!"

Xu Minghe, the head of the Xu family, changed his face greatly, and shouted: "How much do you know about this little beast?" ”

The young man named Xu Zhen smiled and said no more.

After Jia Qiang glanced at him sideways, she heard Mei Xun say lightly: "Since you hurt someone, you should kowtow to Master Feng first and admit your mistake, and then go to the guest room to stay." After the birthday banquet is over, I will personally take you back to the Yamen of the Salt Courtyard and ask Lord Lin to discipline you. The prince is guilty of the law, and the common people are guilty of the same crime. I don't think Lord Lin will show favoritism. ”

After that, Mei Jiu sneered, beckoned back, and immediately came in four powerful slaves, and stepped forward to take Jia Qiang.

Jia Qiangsheng smiled angrily, almost powerless to complain, and said: "It seems that over the years, my aunt's methods have been too merciful...... What do you Mei family think? Even if my aunt and grandfather don't take this salt patrol imperial history, most of them will return to Beijing and ascend, and they won't be defeated, your brains are in water? ”

Mei Jiu said impatiently: "Our Mei family doesn't care if he is promoted or defeated, we haven't received any favors from him over the years, and he hasn't stepped on the door of our Mei family." ”

Jia Qiang now understands the Mei family's thoughts more and more, the Mei family actually thinks that they have not endured Lin Ruhai's favor!

Now that Lin Ruhai is leaving, they estimate that they will not be able to get any benefits in the future, so they are indifferent to him?

It's not right, it's not to be cold and relatively not to this point, this is for others to see!

To whom, to the Feng family? To the salt merchants?

Jia Qiang looked at the Mei family and sneered in her heart, the Mei family was afraid that they had not inherited Lin Ruhai's benefits, so they didn't want to bear Lin Ruhai's enemies now......

Thinking about this section, he was completely speechless about the Mei family's idiot who flew into the sky.

However, looking at the four strong men who were about to step forward and kneel down with him, Jia Qiang sneered, and then stepped forward with an arrow, locked Mei Xun's throat, and said coldly to Mei Jiu's people who had changed their complexions: "Upstairs in the drunken immortals in the capital, the Emperor Taishang still allows me to be an idler for a lifetime, except for the prince of heaven and earth, the rest can not kneel." You are waiting for the same goods as a local chicken and a dog, and you deserve me to kneel down and apologize? Get the hell out of here! ”

A number of people in Yangzhou City were shocked by the outlaw faction like Jia Qiang.

It's not that they've never seen outlaws, and they even have a group of them.

But when did anyone dare to be presumptuous in front of them?

Could it be that all those who come from the capital are so tigers?

Yao Ji originally Lin Ruhai came to Yangzhou at the beginning of the year when he was in charge of the Yamen of the Salt Academy, and the eight major salt merchants were rich at that time, and they donated silver to welcome the emperor, and won the praise of the emperor, who put a scholar in his eyes?

But he never thought that after only half a year of dormancy, Lin Ruhai used thunderous means to destroy two doors in a row, and Jiangnan was terrified.

Now, this disciple of Lin Ruhai is even more rude than him.

The two sons of the Feng family, who hit first, fell to the ground with blood on their faces, and scolded the dignified Mei family's Yangzhou Gaomen, and now they are directly holding the head of the Mei family hostage......

It's an eye-opener!

"Jia Qiang, are you crazy? Don't let them go yet! My eldest brother has a little mistake, you don't want to walk out of the plum garden today! ”

Mei Jiu, Mei Gu and other Mei family members saw that Mei Xun was actually captured by the throat, and their eyes were split, and they couldn't wait to peel Jia Qiang's skin and bones, and shouted loudly.

The Feng family, the Xu family, and the four major salt merchant owners also spoke:

"Release them first!"

"What kind of system, let it go quickly!"

"How bold! This is Yangzhou Mansion, not a place where you can spread wild, let it go immediately, otherwise ......"

"How else?"

Before Bai Yuan, the head of the Bai family, finished speaking, he heard a cold voice behind him.

Everyone looked back, and then their faces changed dramatically.

Chen Rong, the servant of the Yamen of the Salt Courtyard, no longer has a trace of the kindness and elegance of the past on his body at this moment, but is amazing.

Behind him, followed by a team of more than 100 steaming salts, holding shackles and locks, like the eyes of tigers and wolves.

Seeing Chen Rong like this, the Mei family was bluffed for a moment, and Feng Jian came out and said, "Brother Mian Ren, what do you mean by this?" ”

The head of the Bai family was nervous in his heart and questioned: "Lord Chen, as far as I know, if the son has already issued a decree today, the yamen of the salt courtyard will be reduced. The governor of Liangjiang was promoted to the government in Jiangning yesterday, and his will has been achieved, and it seems that the yamen of the Yanyuan has no power to mobilize Yanding, right? ”

Chen Rong's face was grim, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency the Governor is in the Yamen of the Salt Courtyard at the moment, and this order is the first decree after the Governor takes charge of salt affairs. ”

"What the hell is the order?!"

Feng Jian asked in a trembling voice.

Chen Rong looked at him, his eyes could not hide his disappointment and regret, and said in a deep voice: "According to the order of the governor, the Feng family is guilty of raising the Qinghe Gang and causing trouble to Yangzhou. The crime of the Mei family is suspected of illegal salt. Today, this official specially came to arrest the Feng family and the Mei family! Those who dare to resist the order will be beheaded on the spot! ”

When the father and son of the Feng family heard this, they were naturally like being struck by lightning, but it was the Mei family who were really afraid.

Once the salt merchant is convicted of this crime, there is no possibility of whitewashing.

Which salt merchant doesn't pour some private salt?

It's just the difference between more and less.

As long as it is not excessive, most of the officials will turn a blind eye, as long as they pay the salt tax on time and donate more good money on weekdays.

But once you check it, it means that you have been sentenced to death.

When Mei Xun was captured by Jia Qiang's throat, she could still keep her face unchanged, but at this moment, her face was like earth, her body was like sifting chaff, her eyes were full of pleading, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Lord Chen...... Where is Lord Lin? ”

When Chen Rong heard this, his eyes were gloomy and he said: "Lord Yushi and Lord Governor are old friends who have been friends for more than ten years, so they can naturally say a thing or two for your Mei family. It's just that before the adults could speak, the matter of the plum garden today was reported back to the yamen. Hmph, the adults sent their disciples to celebrate his birthday, but he could only sit in the side hall, and some people dared to force him to kneel down and make amends...... All right! What an eye-opener! Let's go to prison together and discuss how to make amends! ”

Jia Qiang let go of Mei Xun casually, let him slump to the ground, wiped his hands with a handkerchief under the gaze of everyone, walked up to Chen Rong, bowed slightly, and said softly: "Uncle Shi, if there is nothing to do, I will take my aunt back to the Ya first." ”

Chen Rong was a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't expect Jia Qiang to take the opportunity to step on the faces of these people, but it was better......

He nodded and said, "Let's go, my lord and the governor of Liangjiang, Banshan Cheng, are talking in Zhonglin Hall, and they are also waiting for you to go back." ”

Jia Qiang: "......"

Oh my God, how could it be that stubborn old man?

Then his life in Jiangnan will not be too easy......
