Chapter 22 Assistance
After Li Yan, Chen Meng and Tang Liwen finished lunch at Wei Xian's mansion, Wei Xian also woke up from a coma.
Li Yan, Chen Meng and Tang Liwen looked at the head of the Wei Xian family sitting on the first seat, and said comfortingly: "Wei Xian family master, I hope you can calmly face what happened, this incident happened in my jurisdiction, and it is also my dereliction of duty, I hope the Wei Xian family master will forgive me." In order to appease the head of the Wei Xian family, Tang Liwen could only persuade him tactfully.
"If the county keeper is there, it doesn't matter if such a thing happens, this Xihe County has not happened since Gaozu Jiantang, who knows, hey." When the head of the Wei Xian family heard Tang Liwen say this, he was shocked, stood up and saluted, and said with a sigh.
"Yes, since the first emperor, it has been peaceful until now, but today such a thing happened, and it is also annoying, but." Tang Liwen said this, his voice paused, and then said: "This gang of bandits may still commit murder, and I don't know whose house it is next time." ”
"Lord Tang, this, this bandit is still coming to rob?" Wei Xian heard this surprise and said, "What if you come to rob my house again, there is no one for them to rob now." ”
"Hehe, don't worry about the head of the Wei Xian family, these bandits won't come to your mansion next time, so you can rest assured." When Tang Liwen heard Wei Xian's words, he first disdained it, and then said comfortingly.
Why does Tang Liwen despise this Wei Xian, because the top ten businessmen in Xihe County are all family members, just take Wei Xian as an example, there are tens of thousands of taels of family property, although it is said that five thousand taels were robbed today, but at least more than half of the family property. Tang Liwen knows these things clearly. Even if all the silver stored by Wei Xian is looted, it will return to normal in a year, after all, this Wei Xian has shops in Xihe County and the prefectures and counties near Xihe County, and even in the capital.
Although Tang Liwen's disdainful eyes were vague, this old and refined Wei Xian was still a little aware of it, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
But neither of them said anything, and then the principal said with a smile: "That's fine, otherwise they will have to move my mansion when they come again." However, I still hope that adults will solve the case sooner, so that fewer people can be victimized. ”
"Don't worry, this is something I have handed over to Commander Chen Meng." Tang Liwen pointed to Chen Meng, who was standing aside, and said.
"Well, then thank you. Commander Chen, if there is anything that needs our Wei Mansion, he will open his mouth. Wei Xian said as he clasped his fists at Chen Meng.
"Well, then thank you to the Wei Xian family master." Chen Meng said politely.
"By the way, Wei Xian's family master, just now we took a look at those injured people, some of their injuries are more serious, I hope Wei Xian's family master will take good care of them, although they didn't resist, but no matter how they say, they are also loyal, if you hear something I don't like when the time comes, you know." Tang Liwen suddenly thought of something, and said to Wei Xian, and the last sentence was very threatening.
"Although this county keeper can rest assured, although I, Wei Xian, am not a good person, I still understand some things, I don't want to fall into the hands of people and make the people in the mansion feel cold." Wei Xian took a sip of tea, nodded and said.
"That's good, since I don't have anything to do, I should also leave and do business," Tang Liwen got up and clenched his fists and said.
"I won't delay the county keeper's business, I'll send you."
When a few people walked to the door, Tang Liwen said: "Oh, I almost forgot, don't forget the head of the Wei Xian family for tonight's dinner, it's still the old place." ”
"Yes, yes, my lord." Wei Xian nodded and came down.
Li Yan and the three of them, except for the Wei Mansion, walked on the street, looked at the people coming and going on the street, and said: "Li Yan, I want you to do this with Chen Meng, I don't know if you are willing or not." ”
"Yes, Uncle Tang." Li Yan responded without even thinking about it.
"Well, you can say yes without thinking about it, it's really casual." Tang Liwen immediately agreed when he heard Li Yan, rolled his eyes speechlessly, and then said, "This matter is dangerous, aren't you afraid?" ”
"It's a little scared, but I'm going to join the army in the future, and if I'm afraid now, then I don't have to go to the army." Li Yan nodded and said, "Now this kind of thing is the time to hone my courage, and even if there is danger, Uncle Tang will send someone to protect me." ”
"You kid, it's time to calculate accurately," Tang Liwen rolled his eyes angrily when he heard Li's words, and said to Chen Meng: "In this case, Chen Meng, Li Yan's safety will be handed over to you, be sure to protect him." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, the safety of Li Yangongzi will be left to me." Chen Meng clenched his fists and took his life.
"Okay, Li Yan, you can go back first, Chen Meng will come back to you tomorrow, and let Chen Meng deal with other things with me today."
"Oh, okay, then I'll go back first." Salute and leave, and return to the Tang Mansion.
When he went out of the gate, the subordinate guarding the door saw Li Yan and shouted respectfully: "Son, you are back." ”
"Hmm." Li Yan nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work." And he entered the gate.
The two guarding the door whispered to each other after seeing Li Yanyuan's back: "Li Yangongzi is not an ordinary person, he is worthy of being a person who is favored by the young lady, he is talented, he is very good to people, and the dishes he cooks are also delicious." ”
"Oh, Childe's cooking is delicious? I don't know. ”
"Few people know about this, and I wouldn't have known if I hadn't gone to the kitchen in the first place. I was lucky enough to get a taste of it that time, and I still want to eat it again when I look back on it. ”
"Is it so delicious? What kind of dish? ”
"Screws."
"That stuff can be delicious, too? No way? The man listened with a look of disbelief.
"Don't believe me, just ask the people in the kitchen and you'll find out. Ay. Seeing that the man didn't believe it, the man snorted unhappily and said, "Such a good son, I just don't know if I can become the son-in-law of our Tang Mansion." ”
"I don't know about this, Childe and Miss are sisters and brothers, I'm afraid it's a little difficult."
"Yes, although I am not a brother and sister, it is not a simple thing to recognize my sister and brother to take the next step. Let's not talk about that, we just do our job. ”
The gatekeeper didn't know what Li Yan was talking about, and when he came to the garden, he saw Tang Shishi sitting at the stone table, and Liu Yiyi and Yang Liaoxin and several others were also there.
Tang Shishi, Liu Yiyi and several others greeted Li Yan when they came back: "Li Yan, you are back, have you eaten?" Tang Shishi stepped forward and looked at it carefully.
Yang Liaoxin, who was next to Tang Shishi, felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Tang Shishi caring about Li Yan so much, although after experiencing the last travel incident, she didn't have hope, and it was still uncomfortable at that time. However, Yang Liaoxin quickly recovered, as if he could do anything.
"I ate with Uncle Tang in the Wei Mansion." Li Yan nodded and said.
"Eating in the Wei Mansion? Why are you in Wei Mansion? Shouldn't those people be gathering at noon today? This is the past practice, how has it changed this year? Tang Shishi, Yang Liaoxin and a few others asked strangely.
When Li Yan heard Tang Shishi's words, he knew that they didn't know what happened today, but also, they hadn't been out since they came back, and there weren't many people who knew about it, so it spread relatively slowly, but Li Yan believed that he would see him at dinner at the latest, and most of the people in the city would know.
Li Yan thought about it for a while, and then explained: "You said that the party was postponed tonight, something happened today, the Wei Mansion was robbed and injured a lot of people, so there was no more, and the head of the Wei Xian family was angry and vomited blood, and we still had to arrange some things, so we ate a little bit in the Wei Mansion." ”
"What? The Wei Mansion was ransacked? It's been a long time. When everyone heard Li Yan's words, they all asked in unison, and their expressions were as shocked as they were.
"Need to be so surprised? The sterling silver of his house was all looted, as if it were five large chests. Rich people are different, they save so much at home. Li Yan saw their expressions very speechless, but later he expressed great emotion.
Tang Shishi and the others almost fainted when they heard Li Yan's words, and wanted to scold: "Don't you put the money at home and put it there?" You've had enough. But it still didn't come out. I had to roll my eyes and said: "Our Xihe County has been harmonious and peaceful since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, there has never been a ransack of other people's mansions, not even murder and arson, except for Gao Zhenyin's dog leg is a tyrant in the county, they bully men and women everywhere, there is nothing else." ”
"I knew this before I came back, so there's no need to say it again. You tell me about the situation of this county town, but you didn't make it clear last time. Brother Liao Xin, you made it clear this time, so that I have some understanding. When Li Yan heard about this county town again, he aroused his interest and asked.
When Yang Liaoxin and the others heard Li Yan's previous sentence, they almost didn't get mad, and scolded in their hearts: "Made, how do we know that you already know, and we are not roundworms in your stomach." But when he heard Li Yan's last sentence, they all became serious.
Yang Liaoxin sorted it out and said: "This county town is organized by Gao Zhenyin, Gao Zhenyin is their leader, and it is his four doglegs who lead them to do evil everywhere, you have seen these four people, it is the first time you and Gao Zhenyin met the four people." In addition to these four people, there are eight people, these eight people were naughty everywhere when they were young, let alone at this age, but these eight people have no family background, they are all people with a little money, and those four people are the sons and brothers, but they are all people from small families or forces. ”
"These people are often together, flirting with Miss Liangjia from time to time, and a few times they are raped, every time they are arrested and locked up for a certain time, someone comes to bail them out, they can be said to be punished by everyone in this county town, but someone covers them, so they can't do anything to them." Yang Liaoxin explained to Li Yan one by one.
"Well, I guess I know. Brother Xie Liaoxin. Li Yan said with a little after knowing the general situation.
"What are we talking about, if you are useful to me, just say that although I don't have any prestige in this county, there are still many people who will be skeptical after the gate of the guard on my side." Yang Liaoxin patted Li Yan's shoulder and said.
"Okay, I will definitely ask you for help when there is something to do, and you won't shirk it when the time comes." Li Yan said with a smile.
