Waiting again, in the past few days, He Zhiyuan has heard this word for the third time. When he said this word from Yue Tongzhi's mouth, He Zhiyuan clearly felt the meaning of procrastination and prevarication.

So, he also got up and said, "Your Excellency." Since the inspection of the grain ship is very troublesome, it is better to be sent to Juzhou by the people of the salt department, and then unloaded by the salt department into the warehouse, so that there is no private salt at a glance, and the effort is done twice and again, which saves the manpower and time of the salt department, and also solves the urgent needs of the people in our state. ”

"This method is good, with luck and investigation, the dilemma is solved!" Liang Wenhui praised.

But seeing that Yue Tongzhi squinted at a pair of dead fish eyes, and didn't even look at He Zhiyuan, the meaning was very clear, is there still a place for you to speak?

This kind of shame of being ignored made He Zhiyuan angry again. I thought that if I didn't make some surprise today, this red lantern probably wouldn't be excited. So he continued: "Recently, the taverns and teahouses in Huai'an City have been discussing, saying that the case of Yuzhi County in Yancheng eight years ago was also found to be carrying illegal salt in the grain ship by the officials of the Huai'an Branch of the Huai'an Branch of the Two Huai'an Salt Divisions. Now there are almost identical cases again, and even the amount of illicit salt is the same! ”

He Zhiyuan suddenly came to such a period of words with a gun and a stick, Liang Wenhui couldn't help but be secretly anxious, what are you doing mentioning these old cases, how can the surnamed Yue care about these?

But what Liang Wenhui didn't expect was that Yue Tongzhi, who had been squinting, opened his eyes and glanced at He Zhiyuan in surprise, obviously he didn't expect that such a secret old case would also be detected by the other party, his ears and eyes were all over Huai'an, it was obviously an exaggeration to say that restaurants and teahouses were talking about it, but he must have a reason for saying this, and he must be covering up something! Thinking that he has been to Yangzhou in the past two days and has seen the people of Lord Lin of Nanjing, is it the news revealed by Lord Lin? Could it be that there are still people in the court who are staring at this matter? How can this matter be brought up again, and the Salt Patrol Imperial History takes this opportunity to re-investigate this case, it will be very bad......

But after all, it was an old Jianghu, Yue Tongzhi quickly calmed down, pulled down a fat face and said: "Back then, Yu Zhi County was stunned, and he did the act of being a traitor, and he was innocent of death. Now, if it is found that this case is related to Liang Zhizhou, it is also not allowed to be private! Drop-off! ”

He Zhiyuan smiled strangely at Yue Tongzhi, bowed his hand and said: "Lord Yue, whether Yu Zhixian has made Zhi Zhi faint and committed a traitorous crime, in addition to the interrogation results of the relevant yamen, there are also comments from the people and the officials of the Ming Dynasty. There is a way of justice from the hearts of the people, and what will happen in the end depends on how the history will be written a hundred years later! Lord Yue farewell! ”

Then he turned and left!

When Yue Tongzhi heard this, he was so angry that his nose turned even redder, and he pointed at He Zhiyuan and shouted, "You! You're so presumptuous! ”

The two came out of the yamen of the Huai'an Branch, and Liang Wenhui had a black face along the way, and Xianli was very annoyed. He Zhiyuan's face was not good-looking, and he didn't know if he was walking with his head bored, so the two of them returned to the inn together.

When they arrived at the inn room, the two of them were almost angry. After drinking two more glasses of hot water, my mood calmed down.

Liang Wenhui said at this time: "Gongzi He, you are too impulsive today. People and food are in his hands, and it annoys this plague god, and it is we who are unlucky. ”

"Don't you see it yet? He was on the beam

The adult calls him by his name, so disrespectful, and still expects his subordinates to show mercy? If you kneel down and beg him today, he will not be accommodating. He Zhiyuan said coldly: "Since the soft one can't work, then we have to come to the hard one." I don't believe he doesn't have a handle! ”

"Come hard? Do we have the conditions to be hard now? Liang Wenhui asked suspiciously.

He Zhiyuan said confidently: "Why not? The last thing I say today is hard. ”

Liang Wenhui asked: "Yes, I was wondering at the time, why did you suddenly come up with such a strange statement?" ”

"Didn't I say that last night? Lord Lin said that the Lu family was afraid of revealing the Yuzhi County case eight years ago, and this was their handle. He Zhiyuan said confidently.

"So the case in Yuzhi County was an unjust case back then, and this case is not only related to the Lu family, but also related to the surname Yue?" Liang Wenhui asked with some surprise.

"I guess that's it."

"Guess? It's been a long time, you don't have evidence, just guessing. ”

He Zhiyuan said slowly: "However, the Lu family and Yue Tongzhi don't know that I am guessing." And they must have known that I went to Yangzhou to meet with Lord Lin's people, and they would definitely think that this must have been said by the Lin family. If it is really an unjust case, can the Lu family not be a thief? The Lu family is making trouble for us, but it's just for a breath, what will the Lu family choose if you say it for a breath and save your life? And this plague god surnamed Yue is really greedy for money and wants his life to fight for the Lu family? ”

Liang Wenhui had to admire He Zhiyuan's reasoning, so he said: "I understand, your trick is still to surround Wei to save Zhao." We've done what we need to do now, so let's wait and see. ”

In fact, what he was more afraid of was yet to come. I think that the text of Su Yushi will go to the Huai'an branch in the past few days, and at that time, Yue Tongzhi may have to come to the inn in person to report the progress of the case. He Zhiyuan said proudly.

"I hope so, let's stay in the inn in peace for the next two days, and wait for good news." Liang Wenhui lay down on the bed and said lightly.

After sending He Zhiyuan and Liang Wenhui away, Tongzhi Yue Bingqian fell into deep fear. He sat on the chair in the signing room and did not move for a long time. Eight years ago, he was also a sixth commander of the Yancheng County Salt Farm under the Huai'an Branch of the Lianghuai Salt Division (the official name of the salt field, in charge of the production and storage of salt in the entire salt field), and it was Yu Zhi County that he and Lu Jie designed to frame, and there were more than a dozen salt merchants and officials implicated by him. The whole male family of Yuzhi County was beheaded, and the female dependents were confiscated or sent to the Jiaofang Division, at that time, this case was a royal case approved by the emperor, and there were many people involved in this case, and it was precisely because of his meritorious report in this case that he had to rise to prominence, but what the truth is, he and Lu Jie know best.

It is no accident that He Zhiyuan suddenly mentioned this matter now. It seems that someone in the household department of Nanjing still remembers this case, if this matter is turned over again, and the two Huai patrol salt imperial history know about it, and then come to investigate it thoroughly, it will be more auspicious for him and the Lu family. It seems that the two elders from Juzhou are by no means ordinary people, especially the young one, with a glint in his eyes and sharp words, he is by no means a good person. At this time, he suddenly thought that one of them said that the young man Jian was in the emperor's heart, he didn't care about it at the time, but now that he thinks about it, I'm afraid it's not a casual remark.

While he was pondering in fear, a confidant came to report: "My lord, the Salt Inspection Department has sent a message urging us to try Juzhou as soon as possible

The case of the grain ship. ”

"The text of the salt courtyard?" Yue Bingqian was so shocked that he almost jumped up. What are you really afraid of, how did the Salt Patrol Institute know about this? It seems that the young elder not only went to Yangzhou to get the letter, but more importantly, went to the Salt Inspection Institute.

The official wondered in his heart, how could the adults react so much when they heard the Salt Inspection Institute today?

Yue Bingqian looked at the bewildered expression of the officer, and felt out of shape, and in order to cover him up, he pretended to be calm and said: "Go and inform the Huai'an Mansion and ask them to immediately conclude the case of the Juzhou grain ship." ”

"My lord, please tell me how this case will be concluded."

"Let's just say that there is no evidence, let them go." Yue Bingqian said in frustration like a defeated rooster.

The servant said yes and walked out. Subsequently, Yue Bingqian called another confidant and instructed: "Hurry up and inform the people of the Lu family, ask Boss Lu to come to Huai'an for a trip, there is something important to discuss."

After arranging all this, Yue Bingqian's mind stabilized. It will take a day to ride a fast horse from Yangzhou to Huai'an, and Lu Jie will arrive in two days at the earliest. Using these two days, he had to think carefully about how to deal with Su Yushi. Since he already knew about the Juzhou grain ship case, it was by no means as simple as a piece of paper, otherwise he would not have paid so much attention to an ordinary salt smuggling case. Secondly, the two elders from Juzhou should also be appeased, and they should not be allowed to sue indiscriminately, and they should be released from the ship as soon as possible, and they should be sent out of the country as a gift.

At midnight the next day, the shopkeeper came to He Zhiyuan and Liang Wenhui's room and asked, "May I ask if you two are the dukes of the Juzhou Yamen?" ”

Liang Wenhui replied: "Yes, is there something wrong with the store?" ”

"Yue Tongzhi from the Yamen of the Salt Division came to visit, and asked the little one to report to the two." The little second said respectfully, as if the two in front of him were great officials. In fact, that's what he thought in his heart, if he could let the Tongzhi Master of the Yansi Yamen come to visit, he would definitely be a big man.

He Zhiyuan and Liang Wenhui looked at each other and smiled. Immediately, He Zhiyuan said: "Let him wait downstairs for a while, and then let him come up after we get dressed." ”

The shopkeeper happily agreed and went downstairs. I thought to myself that the one who dared to let the Tongzhi Lord wait must be a big man, and he must be careful to serve him in the future.

After a while, Yue Bingqian knocked on the door with two officials and entered. swept away yesterday's arrogance and coldness, and now put on a fat face full of a warm smile, and saluted when they met: "Two sons, good news." Today, the Huai'an Prefecture government came to report that the case of the grain ship carrying illicit salt was a pure misunderstanding, a pure misunderstanding. ”

He Zhiyuan looked at this fat face full of smiles, and thought to himself that if this person was to be an actor in the future life, he would rush to this face-changing kung fu, maybe he could really become a corner.

While He Zhiyuan was thinking wildly, Liang Wenhui asked: "Lord Yue, I came to visit suddenly, the room is cramped, and you see that there is not even a place for adults to sit." ”

Yue Tongzhilian said: "It's okay, it's okay. After that, he said to the official beside him: "Go downstairs and tell the shopkeeper to change the best room for the two sons, and the room money will be credited to our salt account." ”

At this time, He Zhiyuan asked, "Just now the adults said it was a misunderstanding?" ”

"Yes, just now the Huai'an Mansion sent someone to report that the grain ship case has been clarified, and it has nothing to do with the personnel in Guizhou, it is purely caused by a misunderstanding!" Yue Tongzhi still smiled and said, "Let me give the two sons a detailed ......."
