Chapter 12: It's over
The fifth day after the salt disappeared.
Ji Kang, the two-way patrol envoy, will be able to go to Huaizhou to try the salt payment case the day after tomorrow. The father and son of the Yan family sent two letters a day to urge, and Yan Huai'an hurried day and night to return to Huaizhou tomorrow morning.
When the news reached Su Duchen, it was already evening.
"Do you really want me to come with you?" Qin Mufeng asked worriedly.
"No, just have Fei San. I'm not on the battlefield, it's fine. Su Duchen shook his bracer and said.
"Dusk, just call the brothers in the village, why do you ......" Qin Mufeng doesn't like to have contact with the cottage very much, especially Nie Canghai.
"In other words, our Caidie Village is still too weak to let people know that this village exists, at least not now. Don't worry, the rivers and lakes have rules, and they don't dare to offend me. Su Duchen patted Qin Mufeng's shoulder, thought about it and said, "Chen Yong took people away?" ”
"Hmm." Qin Mufeng nodded.
"Okay, it's time. I'm leaving. Su Duchen turned around and waved out the door.
A moment in time.
The Yan Mansion is located in the auspicious lane of Huaizhou. The big mansion of Wujin, the garden is brocade, the Zhu Lou is a blue pool, the verandah is copied on all sides, and the whole courtyard is magnificent, which is worthy of being the mansion of the richest man in Huaizhou.
In the hall at this time, Yan Huaiping sat on the main seat, and Yan Da sat at his bottom. There were two people in the hall, stewards, and little servants were all sent out.
"Father, Uncle will be here tomorrow morning. Uncle's side is fine, what else do we need to prepare. Yan Da was a little uneasy, he hadn't rested for several days, and his mother had been sick for the past two days, and she was still very sick.
"Panic what! It's not promising, and this little thing will make you six gods and no master? Hmph - it's nothing more than making up for the silver, what's there to panic about. Yan Huaiping said angrily.
"Yes, yes, my father taught me." Yan Lianlian nodded yes. Now that his father was angry, he really didn't dare to ask where to raise money. How can the Yan family call up such a large sum of money now, how to make up for it?
"There is another thing, the one million taels surnamed Su, can be delayed, first clear up your own affairs." Yan Huaiping is quiet and authentic.
"Yes, father, I didn't think about returning it. It's a pity that the spring snow building in the capital is cheap. Yan Da said disdainfully.
"What's a pity about a building, survive this, and there is nothing to get salt. I bought all the buildings, and no one dared to say anything. Yan Huaiping waved his hand, as if he was pointing out the country.
"Smack, smack, smack"
Su Duchen slapped his face and walked in, and said with a light smile: "Master Yan really has courage, this momentum is really extraordinary." ”
"Su Duchen! How did you get in here! Yan Da stood up from his chair and said in surprise.
Su Duchen still had a smile on the corner of his mouth, glanced behind him, and said, "Walking in, why is Master Yan so surprised." ”
"You...... Someone, someone came and didn't report it, what about people? Get in here! Yan Da pointed at Su Duchen and shouted outward.
Su Duchen smiled, found a random place to sit down, and said lightly: "Master Yan, Su Mou came to the door today, mainly for the million silver, I don't know when Yan, Big, Brother will be ready?" ”
Tonight's Su Duchen made Yan Da very unfamiliar. In the past, he was dressed with bells and whistles, and he looked like a colorful gentleman, but now he is wearing a black middle coat and a black robe on the outside, and the whole person's temperament is completely different, and it is like two people.
"Brother Su, didn't I say it before, even if the Yan family is untrustworthy, and my uncle Yan Huai'an is not too guarded. Besides, I can borrow this silver for a few days, and it's not appropriate for you to ask for it so quickly. Yan Da just lost his temper, was glared at by Yan Huaiping, and calmed down. Now it makes sense.
Su Duchen dusted off his cuffs and said tepidly, "Brother Yan, I've heard about the docks." One million and 800,000 taels are gone, and your Yan family's means of stealing beams and changing pillars are really powerful. Now that the money has been changed, you don't care about my small money, Brother Yan. ”
Yan Da got up and said angrily: "Fart! What steals beams and replaces columns? Honest and untrustworthy! You're slandering! ”
Su Duchen sneered and said lightly: "Since you don't want to continue this topic, then I'll change it." The Li family in Changping County, Yan Dagongzi has an impression. ”
When he spoke of the Li family, Su Duchen's voice sank significantly, and the temperature around him seemed to drop by several degrees. Su Duchen got up and slowly walked to the middle of the hall, hooking the corners of his mouth mockingly, his eyes fixed on Yan Da's expression.
The Li family! The expression on Yan Da's face was obviously cracked, his expression was panicked, and his eyes were evasive. Then, the expression on his face immediately returned to normal.
Su Duchen said in his heart: I have done too many bad things, I killed a few people and was provoked, but I can calm down so quickly. Or, I'm sure I don't dare to take you?
"Su Duchen, don't worry about the silver, the capital is already deploying. What's more, you have the title deed and my IOU in your hand, so you don't have to worry, wait patiently for a few days. Yan Da said perfunctorily.
"Young Master Su - since we have these things in hand, we don't have to worry that our Yan family will repay the debt. It's getting late, so please go back. Yan Huaiping waved his hand while talking.
This is an eviction order.
Su Duchen hugged his chest, watched the father and son sing and harmonize with an expressionless face, took a step forward, and said coldly: "The tragic death of the six members of the Li family in Changping County was the murder of the eldest son of Yan and his mother. I-didn't wronged you. ”
"Su Duchen—you're crazy! Do you know what kind of place this is, this is Yan Mansion, you get out of me! Yan Da was frightened by Su Duchen's expression and took a step back and said sharply.
"The two old men who were over the age of sixtieth birthday fell to the door with their heads broken and bleeding. Mother Li's face was burned and her abdomen was slashed......" Su Duchen took a step forward with every word he said, his tone was flat with a little bloodthirsty, and anger flashed from the bottom of his eyes.
Yan Da was forced to retreat again and again by Su Duchen's words, his expression was panicked, his trembling hand waved, and said, "The surname Su, go away!" Stay back......! ”
Su Duchen's fierce eyes stared at Yan Da, and said in a solemn manner: "Father Li tried his best to resist, but unfortunately he still couldn't get rid of your ferocity with his own strength. He was supposed to run out for help, but you stabbed him several times in the back and fell to the patio. And ......" Su Duchen said this, paused, and after suppressing his anger, his voice rose in vain: "Li Xinlan, sister of the Li family, what have you done!" To say that you are a beast is to insult the word beast. ”
As if he was not in Yan's Mansion now, as if he was at the scene of the murder, the camera kept flashing back - the hideous-faced murderer waved the sharp blade in his hand and slashed at the powerless old and young.
At this time, Su Duchen was like a hellish Shura, Yan Da was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he stumbled and almost fell, "Ahhh Get out—" shouted loudly, and ran out.
Su Duchen didn't look at Yan Da who was running out, but stood still in front of Yan Huaiping.
Yan Huaiping was a little stunned, he looked at Yan Da who was stumbling out. Pulling his gaze back, he frowned and looked up at Su Duchen, looking puzzled, as if he didn't know anything about it. However, he remembered the name Li Xinlan.
"Master Yan really doesn't know anything about what his wife and children are doing? Also, there are countless beauties outside, and you have never paid attention to the affairs of the inner courtyard of the Yan Mansion. Su Duchen's expression returned to normal, and he smiled coldly.
Yan Huaiping's face turned pale, and he clenched the armrests of the chair mountain with both hands, he should have guessed what his wife and son had done.
"Ahh It was Yan Da who ran out, and was pulled into the hall by the collar.
Fei San, dressed in masked black, grabbed Yan Da and walked to Su Duchen's side, shook his hand, and threw Yan Da to the ground.
Su Duchen looked down at Yan Da lying on the ground, squatted down, pinched Yan Da's chin with his hand, and said, "Do you know what I will choose to come to the door today?" Because tonight is the right time for you to hit the road. The grim and cruel words came out of Su Duchen's mouth, making Yan Da tremble. Instinctively knew that Su Duchen was not casually speaking, if he did it, he would really kill them.
"Whatever you want, I'll cooperate, don't kill me - I'll put all the properties under my name under your name, don't kill me......" Yan Da tugged at the corner of Su Duchen's robe, begging for mercy.
Su Duchen took out the money bag from his arms, rubbed his fingers against the embroidery on it, and said lightly: "Niuniu is less than five years old this year, and you slashed her neck to her abdomen with a knife." He looked at Yan Da with red eyes, looked indifferent, and said, "What you did in the past has nothing to do with me. But—did you think what would happen to you when you slashed at my sister? Did you ever think that there would be today when you broke into Li's house? ”
"Master Su, if there is something wrong with the dog, the old man apologizes to you. Everyone can sit down and discuss everything...... Ahh——!hhh Yan Huaiping saw his son lying on the ground like a dog, and said busily.
Without waiting for Yan Huaiping to finish speaking, Su Duchen raised the knife in his hand, and the blade of the knife sank into Yan Huaiping's thigh.
Yan Huaiping, who was sitting on the chair from beginning to end, was hurt by this sudden knife, and it was worse than death. I saw him pinching the roots of his legs with both hands, wailing again and again......
A flash of surprise flashed in Fei San's eyes, and he seemed to have underestimated Su Duchen......
Yan Da trembled even more with fright from this knife, imagining that if this knife was on himself......
Su Duchen got up expressionlessly, sat on the chair, and said faintly: "When Li Xinlan was visiting the flower market, she was taken by Master Yan at a glance and wanted to be a concubine, but the Li family refused. After that, you met twice for a cruise, but the Li family refused. The day before Li Jun, a child of the Li family, came back from visiting the famous teacher, Master Yan came to meet again, hoping that the Li family would enjoy their faces and go to the other courtyard. Because the Li family has refused several times, they are afraid of offending you if they can't say anything if they can't talk about it, so they agreed. A carriage carried the Li family's father and daughter to the other courtyard. ”
Su Duchen stopped when he said this, looked at Yan Huaiping, and said with his eyebrows: "Master Yan has something to do and went out halfway." Niuniu was young, and she couldn't help but run to see the beautiful flowers in the courtyard, Li Xinlan was afraid that her sister would run around, so she caught up and took hands to walk around the courtyard. ”
There is a small garden in the courtyard, Li Xinlan pulled Niuniu to walk here a little confused, and just wanted to return, but accidentally saw someone talking in the garden. Li Xinlan was in a dilemma, and covered Niuniu's mouth in fear and hid.
Conversations came ......
Male voice: "Why did Huaiping come here today, who did you invite?" ”
Female voice: "Hmph—what can he let come, it's nothing more than a woman." ”
Male voice: "Then I'll go first, don't be bumped into by him." ”
Female voice: "Well—I don't rely on you—you haven't been with me for days." ”
Male voice: "Tomorrow we will go elsewhere, you also go, don't be here." ”
Female voice: "By the way, you have to pay more attention to Yu'er's affairs." ”
Male voice: "He is my son, of course I take it to heart, don't worry." ”
Su Duchen got up, walked in front of Yan Huaiping, leaned over to support the armrests of the chair with both hands, leaned forward, and said, "It's really a wonderful family ethics drama of a wealthy family. This woman should be Master Yan's wife, this man must be your good brother, as for Yu'er, there is no doubt that Yan Dagongzi. Congratulations to Master Yan, you have been wearing this green hat for more than 20 years. ”
Yan Huaiping's forehead was full of green tendons, his face was red, he was clenching his teeth, his lips were trembling, and the wound on his thigh was bleeding nonstop.
Su Duchen ignored Yan Huaiping, who was about to collapse, squatted down and looked at Yan Da who was lying on the ground like a dead fish, and said coldly: "But-why do you have to suffer from your dirty things?" Even if Li Xinlan hears this, she won't understand the grievances of your big families, can a four-year-old baby understand it. Why? Just because you have the right and money, you can do whatever you want, you can take care of people's lives? After more than ten years of being unscrupulous in Huaizhou, I thought that no one could take care of you? ”
"Spare your life—spare your life......!" Yan Da lay on the ground and kowtowed.
Su Duchen glanced at Fei San, and Fei San understood, raised his feet and walked to the inner courtyard.
A family of three must be neat.
Fei San didn't come out after a while, and there was another person in his hand, it was the housewife of the Yan family who had been haunted by "powerful ghosts" for several days in a row and was unconscious. Fei San threw the man to the ground with his hand in the same way.
Su Duchen was tired of it, and it was time to ask and say everything. took out the paper and pen that had been prepared earlier, put it on the ground, and said, "Leave a suicide note for your father." ”
"No, no, no, I don't write, I can't write." Yan Da shook his head violently and stepped back.
Su Duchen threw away the pen, took the dagger and slashed at Yan Da's finger, and said, "Write!" If you don't write, if you stab someone a few times, I'll stab you a few times. ”
"Ahhh——! I write...... I write......" Yan Da shook his fingers and cried.
"I read what you wrote." Su Duchen said.
After the blood was written, Su Duchen walked out of the hall with it, sat on the steps and looked up at the sky, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "The night is so beautiful......
Screams rang out from the hall, followed by pleas for mercy...... Slowly calm down.
Su Duchen walked into the hall again, Fei San's task had been completed, and he leaned against the pillar with his chest crossed. Glancing at the middle of the hall, Su Duchen raised his foot and walked behind the screen on the left hand of the hall.
There were two people behind the screen, Chen Yong and Li Jun, who was unconscious in Chen Yong's arms.
"Childe, after listening to the cause and effect, he knocked him unconscious, and he didn't know what was going on." Chen Yongmu said.
"Well, bring him back." This screen in the hall is well hidden, as long as there is no sound, no one knows that there are people hiding here.
After speaking, Su Duchen walked out of the screen and came to the screen on the right hand side of the hall.
There is one person tied here, Yan Chengyang, the third young man of the Yan family. Su Duchen motioned for Fei San to loosen the bindings.
"Why did you let people tie me up here? Why! Are you crazy? That's my dad – why! Aren't you my brother......! Yan Chengyang sat on the ground and cried hysterically.
