I saw Xu Wenzhao slamming his head against the wall.

"Don't do that. ”

Lord Earl hurriedly rushed forward and blocked Xu Wenzhao.

Even if he knew that Xu Wenzhao was acting, he had to do it, otherwise he would look cold.

Xu Wenzhao took the opportunity to hug the Earl's legs and said passionately: "Master, I entered the Earl's Mansion when I was a teenager, and I grew up in front of the old master, and there is no one in the entire Earl's Mansion who is as loyal as me." ”

"My lord, if I can, I can cut out my heart right now, so that you can see if it is red or white!"

Xu Wenzhao said as he beat his chest.

The meaning of the words is very obvious, I, Xu Wenzhao, am so loyal, I want to be treated like this, my lord, are you trying to force me, an old man, to death?

"Get up, get up...... Lord Earl said gently, "Wen Zhao, of course I believe in your loyalty to the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion. ”

Xu Wenzhao still knelt on the ground and cried, without the intention of getting up.

Of course, Lord Earl knew what the other party wanted.

"Come on, go to the account room and let my uncle come out, don't do it. "Lord Earl.

Xu Wenzhao still didn't get up, hugged the earl's legs and said loudly: "Lord, if you suspect that I am unfaithful, if you suspect that I have done something sorry for the Earl's Palace, then you can send someone to raid my house, then it will be clear." ”

Lord Earl frowned.

Even the copyist said it, didn't it make the entire Earl's Court chill?

Suddenly, he was even more helpless and said, "Go immediately, let my uncle come to me immediately." ”

"Yes!"

The second wave rushed to the account room.

Xu Wenzhao was satisfied and got up from the ground.

The Earl was unhappy, but he could only comfort him.

Xu Wenzhao's face was full of gratitude, but he was very proud in his heart.

Shen Lang, you self-defeating thing, you still want to fight me?

Xu Wenzhao really knows too much about the earl's temperament, smart but soft-hearted, likes to do everything slowly, is full of aristocratic elegance and calmness, and always takes care of the face of his subordinates.

He really can't do this kind of thing in public.

......

"Bang!"

The door to the ledger was slammed open.

A middle-aged steward rushed in with four slaves, and his gaze at Shen Lang flashed with a hint of hostility and pride.

"Hmph, don't look at you as the uncle of the Earl's Court, but you are only a son-in-law, where can you compare to the weight of our Xu Ye? The middle-aged steward said secretly in his heart.

However, he was still very respectful on the surface, bowed down and said, "Uncle, Lord Earl asked you to stop everything in your hands and leave the account room. ”

Shen Lang opened his eyes, and then looked out the door.

Is it dawn?

Time flies, and before you know it, the sun is rising.

When the middle-aged steward saw this situation, he was even more disdainful.

This uncle is really whimsical, I'm afraid that you won't even be able to read a single account book overnight, and you still want to check the accounts, it's really stupid and ridiculous.

If you want to check the accounts, at least find dozens of professional people to check for a month or two.

Immediately afterwards, the second wave of people rushed in quickly and said loudly: "Uncle, Lord Earl has an order, let you go to the hall immediately to apologize to Mr. Xu Wenzhao." ”

As soon as these words came out, several people present became even more proud.

These people are all stewards and buddies in the account room, and they and Xu Wenzhao have both prospered and lost.

Shen Lang nodded and said, "Got it, let's go." ”

Then, with a thick stack of white paper in his arms, he walked down the hall.

The middle-aged steward had the heart to snatch the stack of white paper in Shen Lang's arms to see it clearly, but he just thought about it, and he never had the courage to do so.

Besides, Shen Lang can find out a fart in just one night, what is there to worry about.

......

on the hall.

The Earl sat on the main seat, and Xu Wenzhao sat in the lower left corner.

He was thinking in his heart, Tian Heng said that there was a killing move to deal with Shen Lang, and he would definitely hit the blood with one move, but he didn't know what the killing move was?

Originally, Xu Wenzhao should have waited until Shen Lang apologized to him before slandering, but he couldn't wait.

"Lord Earl, is there one thing that the villain doesn't know whether to say or not?" Xu Wenzhao wanted to say but stopped.

The Earl said, "Say." ”

Xu Wenzhao said: "I heard some rumors in Xuanwu City, saying that Shen Lang pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, and he was obviously very smart, but he pretended to be stupid and incompetent before, and he was afraid that there was a danger of mountains and rivers in his heart. ”

When he heard this, the Earl was displeased, and immediately frowned.

For Shen Lang, his son-in-law, although he taught a lesson with a straight face at every turn, he still loved it very much in his heart.

This kind of beautiful, smart, naughty, sweet-mouthed, trouble-loving child is the most pleasing to adults.

The earl is old-fashioned and conservative, but deep down he still yearns for Shen Lang's freewheeling temperament.

Xu Wenzhao frowned when he saw the earl, and thought that he had gone to his heart, so he was immediately more encouraged, and said: "The reason why Miss Mulan chose Shen Lang as her son-in-law before was entirely because he seemed the most incompetent and unambitious, but now it seems that Shen Lang, the uncle, is very ambitious." ”

The Earl didn't like to hear it even more.

What the?

You say Shen Lang is ambitious?

Although I, Jin Zhuo, am kind and tolerant, my ears are soft, but my eyes are not blind.

Even Shen Lang's little ruffian is still ambitious?

His biggest ideal is to take revenge on Tian Heng and Xu Qianqian, if that little bastard is ambitious, my Earl Xuanwu will want to be the emperor.

"Lord Earl, you were okay when you were here, after a hundred years, with the talent of the world, how can you suppress Shen Lang?" Xu Wenzhao said: "Of course, there is Miss Mulan, but she is a woman after all, her husband is the closest person, plus Shen Lang is beautiful, and he is good at sweet words, when the time comes, I am only afraid that Xiao Wall will be troubled, and the Xuanwu Earl's Mansion will change its master." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Wenzhao's voice was extremely sincere: "Master, whenever I think of this, I toss and turn, and I can't sleep at night, so I target Uncle Shen Lang like this, these are my heartfelt words." ”

Xu Wenzhao is a person who is anxious for quick success, and he can't wait to burn this fire all at once, but he forgets how this kind of thing can be done overnight?

At this time, Shen Lang walked in.

"Meet my father-in-law. ”

Usually, Shen Lang has a lazy face, and his handsome face is full of ruffians.

And at this time, he was unusually serious.

Lord Earl doesn't like Xu Wenzhao to talk about right and wrong, he just wants to end all this quickly, and then slowly take away the power in his hands.

Therefore, he spoke: "Shen Lang, you apologize to Mr. Xu Wenzhao here, you are a student after all, and your attitude was not good yesterday." ”

The earl's attitude was obvious, and let Shen Lang apologize for yesterday's attitude, not for checking the accounts.

It can be seen that he still has a clear distinction between right and wrong in his heart, and thinks that Shen Lang's audit is not wrong.

It's just that Xu Wenzhao was so proud that he couldn't hear anything outside the words, and pointed at Shen Lang and said bitterly: "Uncle Shen Lang, where did I offend you? You are so narrow-minded and want to check my accounts, do you think I can't fill my pockets? I, Xu Wenzhao, am bright and fair, and the world can learn from it." ”

Shen Lang didn't speak, just quietly watched him perform.

Xu Wenzhao's voice raised a few degrees and said, "Uncle Shen, you are so private and narrow-minded, you can't wait to drive me away, is there any ulterior motive?"

Then, he turned his head to look at the earl: "Master, now that the new policy is in full swing, the old nobles everywhere are panicking, and my Xuanwu Earl's Mansion is a thorn in the eye of the governor, Shen Lang provoked a storm at this time, disturbed people's hearts, and sowed discord, so we must not prevent it, we must not punish it!"

Are you finally done?

It's my turn!

Shen Lang glanced at him and said lightly: "Xu Wenzhao, I thought you would be corrupt, but I really didn't expect you to be so greedy." ”

"You are just the head of a mere account office in the Earl's Palace, and in the past twenty years, you have embezzled nearly 30,000 gold coins, which is really shocking and crazy!"

Shen Lang's voice was extremely high, and he roared sharply: "Xu Wenzhao, where is your conscience?

30,000 gold coins!

Hearing this data, Xu Wenzhao almost jumped.

"Lang'er, are you telling the truth?" the Count jerked to his feet.

His eyes widened in disbelief, he knew that Xu Wenzhao's hands and feet were more or less unclean, but it should not exceed two or three thousand gold coins in his pockets over the years.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Shen Lang opened his mouth, it was 30,000 gold coins, which was ten times more.

The most frightening thing is Xu Wenzhao.

Because of how much ink he has greedy, he knows best in his heart.

He knows every account in his heart.

In the past 20 years, he has been greedy for about 30,000 gold coins.

So when Shen Lang said the number 30,000, his heart almost stopped beating.

Both legs shuddered.

Then, there was a flurry of tinnitus.

But soon, he forced himself to calm down.

Shen Lang must have guessed blindly, what could he find out in just one night?

It's enough to even read an account book, and even the immortals can't do it if you want to thoroughly check it, and it is impossible to find out without dozens of people in a month.

"Shen Lang, you are really shameful, ridiculous!" Xu Wenzhao said sharply: "Empty mouth and white teeth said that I was greedy for 30,000 gold coins, what about the evidence?"

Then, Xu Wenzhao knelt down in front of the Earl, and said loudly: "Your Excellency, I, Xu Wenzhao, have been loyal to the Earl's Mansion for twenty years, and I have no merit and hard work, and now Shen Lang has slandered me for embezzling 30,000 gold coins, which is to force me to death." He is just a little son-in-law and is so arrogant, after the Earl is gone, won't he want to occupy the magpie's nest, and the century-old foundation of the Jin family in Xuanwu City will be destroyed in his hands. ”

Shen Lang chuckled: "Xu Wenzhao, I thought that the fake accounts you made would be extremely perfect, but I didn't expect that it was really full of loopholes, don't jump, you are dead." ”

Then, he laid out the results of his own audit and the forms he had sorted out on the table, and the Earl could see them clearly.
