Chapter 18: Arraignment of Zhuang Qiwei
You must know that this gold is a valuable thing in both ancient and modern times, and this is hard currency.
Such a box of gold must have five hundred taels to say the least, and one tael of gold can be exchanged for one hundred taels of silver.
If the five hundred taels of gold are exchanged for silver, he can retire early.
Thinking in his heart, Zhao Qingnan almost didn't laugh, straightened his face, and deliberately frowned at Master Zhuang.
Although everyone knows it, there is still a lot to be done in terms of face.
"Master Zhuang, what do you mean by this?"
Hearing this, Master Zhuang looked at Zhao Qingnan, and hurriedly bent down with a little humility in his voice: "My lord, the child was impulsive when he was young, so he committed a sin, and please look at the things in this box, and give him another chance when the net is opened." ”
Hearing this, Zhao Qingnan couldn't help the joy in his heart, nodded with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and asked Wang Wu on the side: "Did you hear that?" ”
Wang Wuyi couldn't figure out Zhao Qingnan's mind for a while, and then he looked at Master Zhuang and nodded: "I heard it, what the adults meant." ”
"Master Zhuang is really a good man, knowing that this yamen is in disrepair for a long time, and the houses in the back hall are leaking, he decided to donate this box of gold to help the yamen repair, which is really a great merit. Wang Wu, you will order someone to make a plaque and send it to Master Zhuang in person, and the official should thank Master Zhuang for his contribution to the yamen. As he spoke, he patted Master Zhuang on the shoulder: "You can rest assured about this matter, this official is a clean official, so naturally he will not bend the law for personal gain, so that Ling Lang has suffered a little grievance." ”
After saying that, he told Wang Wu to put away the gold.
Master Zhuang looked at Zhao Qingnan talking, and his eyes never left the gold, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it's a corrupt official, it's just a matter of losing some money.
As long as you can keep your son, these are small things.
Thinking in his heart, he quickly complimented him, and then followed Xiao Ya out.
Wang Wu looked at Zhao Qingnan with the box: "My lord, the little one will go and ask someone to release him now." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was blinded by Zhao Qingnan and was stunned.
Seeing Master Zhuang completely disappear at the door, Zhao Qingnan put away the smile on his face: "Who to put in person, this official is a clean official, and he must be honest and honest and enforce the law impartially." ”
One sentence blinded Wang Wu, and patted the box in his arms: "My lord, what about this?" ”
"Didn't you hear this clearly just now, it was donated by Master Zhuang to the yamen to repair the house, so don't you send it to the second lady soon. Let the second lady find a craftsman, the roof of the official's room is broken, hurry up and repair it, or it will leak if it rains tomorrow. As if he remembered something, he called Wang Wu, opened the box and took out a gold ingot directly from it, and threw it to Wang Wu: "Take this and exchange it for silver, calculate how many people are at the yamen, and divide it according to the head, so it is said that Master Zhuang saw that everyone worked so hard, and invited you to drink tea." ”
After speaking, he didn't forget to warn Wang Wu: "If you dare to cheat and play tricks here with the official, let the official know, then don't want to keep the tea money given to you by the dealer." ”
One sentence frightened Wang Wu and hurriedly bowed his head in response: "The little ones don't dare, the little ones will go." ”
After saying that, he hugged the box and left.
Zhao Qingnan is in a very good mood, and it seems that it is still beneficial to be an official after getting five hundred taels of gold so easily.
Humming a little song, I walked to the main hall.
The people in the hall didn't know what was going on, they just watched Zhuang Qiwei kneeling on the ground.
Originally, when Zhuang Qiwei was arrested, he was afraid that he would calm down when he was brought to the court.
Thinking that it is absolutely impossible for the dealer to look at him for an accident, he is the only son of the dealer family, even if his father does not look down on him, he will never let him have an accident.
When he saw Sun Delong and Shen Liang coming over, he didn't see Zhao Qingnan for a long time, and knew that his father must have gone to Zhao Qingnan to intercede for himself.
My heart was completely reassured.
But this peace of mind is only temporary, and after kneeling in the hall for a long time, my heart began to panic again.
Thinking that if my father really bought Zhao Qingnan, it was time to release him now, why was there no news at all.
Isn't there enough money?
But thinking about it, I feel that it is impossible, according to the financial and material resources of the banker, it is impossible to even send a small county order.
Could it be that Zhao Qingnan is a master who does not eat hard and soft, and suddenly his heart became more and more panicked.
He was stolen and captured, in addition to the head, Shen Liang also led people to search for bloody clothes in his house, and he was already at a loss for words.
The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became.
Waiting to listen to the footsteps, he saw Zhao Qingnan turn the screen and take a seat, and quickly raised his eyes.
When I looked at Zhao Qingnan, I was stunned, how could this county master be so young.
Even if it is a donation official, the Ministry of Officials should not give such a young person the official of the Bapin County Order, how much money did the Zhao family spend to let him sit in this position.
Thinking like this, Zhuang Qiwei was even more bottomless in his heart.
Thinking that Zhao Qingnan can spend money to buy a county order at such an age, this Zhao family must have a solid family background, and they are not bad at all.
Wouldn't his thoughts be in vain, and the look on his face suddenly fell.
Zhao Qingnan saw Zhuang Qiwei's reaction in his eyes, and slapped the hall in shock, and then asked, "Who is kneeling in the hall?" ”
Hearing this, Zhuang Qiwei was taken aback, and then he reacted: "In Xiazhuang Qiwei, he is the wife and brother of Zhou Chongguang, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. ”
Listening to Zhuang Qiwei's opening without mentioning his family background, he first moved out of the brother-in-law who held an important position in Beijing, and wanted to try to suppress himself, Zhao Qingnan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Shaoqing of Dali Temple is indeed a big official, but no matter how great the official position is, can he compare with the official department Shangshu and Xiao Guifei?
Thinking about the man behind him, Zhao Qingnan was not false at all.
You must know that the man standing behind him is the second son of the Xiao family, Xiao Junyi!
Immediately said: "Do you know that there was a murder in the Li family's house?" ”
Hearing this, Zhuang Qiwei glanced at Zhao Qingnan's face, and then spoke: "I don't know." ”
Seeing that Zhuang Qiwei was still a dead duck at this time, Zhao Qingnan smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth: "Okay, since you don't know, then the official will help you think about it." The night before yesterday, six people died in the dark of the Li family's house, and these people were all cut off by their heads, do you have an impression now? ”
Zhuang Qiwei couldn't hide it, and then looked at Zhao Qingnan's attitude, but he was afraid that his father would feel sorry for the money, and the money was not in place.
Completely dead, he knelt on the ground with his head down: "I think of it, there is indeed such a thing." ”
"Now that you remember, let's give a good account of how you killed people." Zhao Qingnan said and was shocked.
Zhuang Qiwei was so frightened that his body was startled, and he looked up at Zhao Qingnan, but he gritted his teeth: "I didn't kill anyone, I don't know what to explain." ”
Hearing this, the corners of Zhao Qingnan's mouth raised slightly, and he was not annoyed when he looked at Zhuang Qiwei's reaction.
