Not long after, Ma Zhanguo came in with a bag of melon seeds, and Xia Xiang had already asked people to rearrange the table, and in the middle of the lobby, a dragon gate array was set up. Xia Xiang sat in the middle, the teapot in his left hand and the folding fan in his right hand, he tapped the table lightly, and said in a gentle tone: "It is said that there is a scholar and a lady named Qiaoqiao who have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and the two have no guesses. Later, the scholar went to Beijing to take the exam, but unexpectedly his name fell to Sun Shan. The scholar went home shamelessly, and in despair, he took root in Baozhou and married the daughter of a local squire. After a long time, he couldn't help but feel homesick, so he took his wife and daughter home to visit relatives, and inevitably reunited with Qiaoqiao again. However, Qiaoqiao also married Dong Xian as his wife, and both of them sighed that fate is impermanent, and there is no part in fate......"

Yan Sun's face did not change, and he picked up the melon seeds and swallowed them. Dong Li didn't dare to be presumptuous, sat sideways to the side, bowed his head and said nothing.

Xia Xiang continued: "Dong Xian is gullible and clever, and he also admires the talent of the scholar, so that the scholar becomes the bookkeeper. Dong is now running around all the year round, Qiaoqiao was at home to keep the woman's way, and the scholars were also polite to Qiaoqiao. But he didn't think that the scholar once went to Qizhou with Fu Ke to buy medicinal materials, and he was fascinated for a while, and he fell in love with Fu Ke's way and went to Zhu Yijie's bed, and since then, he has been caught by Fu Ke. Under the persecution of Fu Ke, he had no choice but to tease and seduce Qiaoqiao, who was already a wife. Although there are still moral constraints in his heart, and there are also ethics that scholars should abide by, but when he was forced to have no choice, he still had a personal relationship with Qiaoqiao. Qiaoqiao also took care of Dong Xian's feelings a little at the beginning, and the good woman couldn't stand the entanglement, but in the end she still couldn't keep the woman's way. ”

Dong Li's head lowered lower, and he still didn't say a word.

Yan Sun was even more calm, as if he was talking about someone else's business, he took a sip of tea slowly, and smiled faintly: "Xia County is very eloquent." ”

Ma Zhanguo couldn't wait to kick Yan Sun to the ground, but fortunately he still held back. If it weren't for the fact that he had seen Xia Xianzun's extraordinary interrogation methods before, he would have slandered Xia Xianzun for not being able to try the case.

"The affairs of men and women, there must be a second time with the first time, not to mention that the scholar and Qiaoqiao were childhood sweethearts, after the revival of the old relationship between the two, they left everything behind, and just wanted to last forever, but they didn't know that Dong Duan noticed the private relationship between the two and told Dong Xian about the two of them. It's a pity that Dong Xian didn't believe what Dong Duan said, and was determined that Qiaoqiao did not betray him and the scholar was still loyal to him. He thought that his kindness was full of kind people in the world, but he didn't know that his kindness would never feed the insatiable and ungrateful shameless villain! ”

Yan Sun's face flushed slightly, returned to normal in an instant, smiled indifferently, and calmly swallowed melon seeds. Ding Ke stood behind Yan Sun, his teeth creaked, there are really such brazen people in the world, treacherous, revenge, eating inside and out, guarding and stealing, and with a sanctimonious face, in fact, there are men and women who steal women. He couldn't wait to kill Yan Sun, a bastard bastard, with one stab!

"People's ** is infinite, and the disaster of the king starts from the elephant chopsticks. For scholars, the moral articles they learned before were all left behind because they were on the wrong bed of Sister Zhu once. After he had an affair with Qiaoqiao, he intensified his efforts and wanted more and more things. Just like the king of the ring, he first had a pair of ivory chopsticks, and then he wanted to use a golden cup and jade bowl to match the ivory chopsticks. The golden cup and jade bowl should be matched with the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas should be enjoyed in the pavilion of Qiongtai. In the Qiongtai Pavilion, there must be music for palace maids. The music of the palace maid should be clothed and fed. If this continues, the emperor only knows how to enjoy it, and he will surely loot the people. Xia Xiang also continued quietly, "Although the scholar is not the king of the Emperor, he is also like the King of the Emperor, he is trapped in it step by step, unable to extricate himself. ”

The scholar's ambition is getting bigger and bigger, but he still behaves as before, he is respectful to Dong Xian, obedient to his words, Dong Xian is also confused by the scholar's disguise, of course, it is also indispensable to Qiaoqiao's continuous praise for the scholar in front of Dong Xian. The scholar began to transfer Dong Xian's family property, first doing some small tricks and feet from the books to fill his pockets, and then becoming more and more emboldened, he wanted to transfer part of Dong Xian's property to his own name. The scholar didn't know that Dong Xian didn't notice what he did, and Dong Duan didn't notice it, the scholar thought he was doing it seamlessly, but he was clearly seen by one person! Xia Xiang was walking by the river before, just to straighten out the ins and outs of the whole thing, and at this time, he said in public, like flowing water, "This person is Fu Ke!" ”

Yan Sun's eyelids jumped, and then he narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to hide the panic in his heart.

The scholar didn't know at this time that Fu Ke had pulled him into the water to catch a big fish with a long line. Now that the scholar has become a big fish that has been hooked, Fu Ke appeared in front of the scholar again and told the scholar that he had a better way to embezzle Dong Xian's property, and that the scholar needed to cooperate with the outside world, and after the matter was completed, the scholar could not only get Qiaoqiao, but also take away half of Dong Xian's property. If it had been before, the scholar would not have agreed. Now the scholar wishes that someone would seek Dong Xian's property with him. In his opinion, Dong Xian is not only talented, but also cowardly and soft-hearted, and does not deserve to have such a huge property. The scholar and Fu Ke hit it off, and the two agreed that Fu Ke would introduce Dong Xian to do grain business with the forbidden army, and the scholar only needed to persuade Dong Xian to agree and recommend a tooth person for Dong Xian to match. ”

Yan Sun's face became more and more ugly, and he no longer sat calmly as before, but kept moving his buttocks, as if sitting on pins and needles. Dong Li never raised his head, and his shoulders kept shaking.

Xia Xiang smiled faintly: "The scholar came here to find a tooth man, he was worried that looking for a tooth man in the city would reveal the matter." Tian is not satisfied with the well-known tooth man in Zhending, and the scholar is very satisfied with him. After the two agreed, the scholar recommended Tian Xian to Dong Xian. Subsequently, under the impetus of Fu Ke and the arrangement of the scholars, Tian Xian was in the middle of the matchmaking, and finally promoted the big business of Dong Xian to command Wu Yidong to supply 100,000 loads of grain to the forbidden army in Zhending Mansion! ”

The muscles on Yan Sun's face twitched a few times, and a bead of sweat the size of a bean rolled down his forehead, he couldn't believe his ears, how could Xia Xianzun know such a confidential matter, wouldn't it be said that Xia Xianzun had the ins and outs and truth of the whole incident in one hand?

Thinking about it again, since Xia Xianzun knew how many people and forces were involved behind Dong Xian's death, would he dare to investigate it again? He wasn't afraid that someone would take his life in a fit of rage? Thinking of this, Yan Sun's confidence was a little more sufficient, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, and sat up a little straighter.

"100,000 quintals of grain is not a small amount, although Dong Xian is the richest businessman in the city, it is not easy to complete the business of 100,000 quintals of grain. Dong Xian ran around, bought everywhere, and finally handed over the grain to Wu Yidong as scheduled. Unexpectedly, after Wu Yidong only paid half of the deposit, the balance was delayed. Dong Xian not only mobilized a lot of money in order to purchase 100,000 tons of grain, but also used a lot of favors, he failed to collect debts several times, and he was angry and uneasy, so he asked the scholar to go to collect debts. The scholar asked the tooth man Tian to go again, and Tian was dissatisfied with the debt, and in order to get all the commissions, Tian was dissatisfied and went to ask for debts several times. After several times, after Tian was directly rejected by Wu Yidong, he knew that the debt would not be returned, and he simply did not want the remaining half of the commission. Tian Xian can not be dissatisfied, scholars can not be rewarded, Dong Xian must return the arrears, otherwise his business will be unsustainable......"

Xia Xiang paused for a moment, took a sip of water, and saw that Yan Sun's face was pale, but he was still forced to calm down, Dong Li was trembling and sweating profusely, he did not have the pleasure of exposing the conspiracy and crime of the two in his heart, but there was a trace of pity, the world always has a fluke mentality, and always naively thinks that good things will come to them, and bad things will always happen to others, but they don't know that good things and bad things are all in one thought. Skynet is magnificent but not leaky, opportunistic and shrewd calculations, it can be for a while, but not for a lifetime, all the benefits of ingenuity and snatching will one day become a hundredfold and a thousand times the disadvantage, and it will be returned without the slightest happiness.

People have a thousand calculations, and there is only one calculation for heaven.

"For Fu Ke and the people behind Fu Ke, the layout has been completed at this time, and the net can be closed. So at Fu Ke's suggestion, Dong Xian was anxious to find a new business, and he didn't know that he was in trouble because of Fu Ke's design, so he embarked on the road of death to the south. And Ma Xiaosan and his wife, who Dong Xian took in when he went to Quanzhou, were not worried about Dong Xian and had to follow him. Poor second elder, his son's whereabouts are unknown, but fortunately Dong Xian took him in, and he didn't want to die in the Hutuo River! Xia Xiang got up slowly, and after coming to the public case, his tone was low and slow, "Dong Xian's murder case, from the beginning of the layout when Fu Ke approached the scholar, to Dong Xian's supply of 100,000 quintals of grain to Wu Yidong, and then to Fu Ke's design to let Dong Xian throw himself into the river for the net, the case involves Chengtian Qing in Shile County, Zhuang Feifei, a wealthy merchant in Shile County, Wu Yidong, the commander of the forbidden army in Zhending Mansion, Chi Zhi, the deputy commander of the forbidden army in Shile County, Fu Ke, a scoundrel in Shile County, and Li Qiaoqiao, Dong Xian's wife, etc., there are civil officials, military attachés, civilians and businessmen, And the reason why Dong Xian was calculated by others, he didn't know what was going on until he died, and all the blame for thousands of crimes was caused by one person, and it was you ......"

With a "snap", Xia Xiang slapped the shocked wood: "Yan Sun, a scholar who is shameless, ungrateful, and violates the teachings of the sage!" Rats have skin, but people have no etiquette. If there is no etiquette, what is it not to die! ”

Where can Yan Sun still sit still, not only Xia Xiang's words told the story in great detail, as if he had experienced it himself, but also Xia Xiang's scolding was like a sword that sealed his throat and an arrow to punish his heart, making his heart close to collapse, his body was crooked, and he fell to the ground with a plop, sweating like rain: "Xia Xianzun, the villain is guilty, and the villain deserves death!" ”

Xia Xiang's chest is like a fire burning, although Dong Xian is a businessman, he is kind and sincere to people, but he doesn't want the people around him to either not abide by women's morals, or wolf ambitions, good people deceive the sky, and evil people are afraid of the sky, he just wants to seek justice for Dong Xian and bring the bad people to justice: "And you, Dong Li's family, as a woman, it is already unfaithful to not abide by women's morals, and you also collaborated with Yan Sun to murder her husband for money." You and Yan Sun originally relied on Dong Xian to live, but not only did they not know how to repay the favor, but they also took revenge. What kind of face does a person like you have to face his parents and brothers, and what face does he have to raise Dong Xian's descendants? If this official parades you all the way from Zhending official to Shile County, what kind of face do you have to live in the world? ”

Dong Li thought of the scene of being spurned by everyone, thinking of her parents losing face because of her, and the children hated her so much that they didn't recognize her as their mother, she couldn't support it anymore, and fell to the ground in despair, crying silently: "Xia Xianzun, the women know that they are wrong." The women are ashamed of their ancestors, their families, and the Dong family, and they deserve to die! ”

"Tian Xiancheng said that you and Yan Sun will not die?" Xia Xiang saw that the time was ripe and asked the key to the question in time.

"Yes, Tian Xiancheng personally promised the women and Shiro that as long as the two of us don't tell the truth, only admit that there is adultery, and don't say anything else, we can keep the two of us safe." Dong Li kowtowed again and again, "Xia Xianzun, the women know that they are guilty, and please ask Xia Xianzun for the sake of the women's confession, don't let the children of the women know that their mother-in-law is a shameless ** woman." ”

Xia Xiang sighed, Dong Li's conscience is still clear, but unfortunately he has not escaped Yan Sun's clutches after all, the big mistake has been made, and it is impossible to redeem it. He nodded: "This official promises you." But Yan Sun, if you don't take the initiative to tell the truth, this official won't be able to protect you. You're a smart person, and you don't think about it, if you are let out, will you be able to return to the city alive? You know too many secrets, and the dead can really keep them. ”

Yan Sun lay on the ground, not moving for a long time, suddenly shocked, and crawled forward on his knees: "Xia Xianzun, the villain is willing to say, the villain is willing to say." ”

"Okay, let's be honest." Xia Xiang really breathed a sigh of relief at this time and sat up straight.

In fact, the villain knew from the beginning that Fu Ke was calculating the villain, and the villain pretended not to know, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to achieve a career. Fu Ke wants to use the villain, why isn't the villain using Fu Ke? Yan Sun knelt a little straighter, "After the villain failed in the imperial examination, he knew that there was no hope of being a jinshi in the examination, so he wanted to do business. After starting a family in Baozhou, he did a business once and failed. Later, the villain thought of Qiaoqiao who married the wealthy businessman Dong Xian, so he dragged his family to Shile, and was recommended by Qiaoqiao to become Dong Xian's bookkeeper. Although the villain was not admitted to the Jinshi, he was also from a good background, and he thought that he was much stronger than even Xiucai and Dong Xian, and he was committed to Dong's firm, not just to eat with his mouth, but also to have more ambitious ambitions. ”

Xia Xiang nodded slightly, Yan Sun, his heart is higher than the sky, how can he be willing to live under others for a long time?

"Dong Xian is immoral and incompetent, but he can sit on hundreds of millions of family properties, and the way of heaven is unfair!" Yan Sun's face showed indignation, "I miss my Yan Sun, ten years of cold window, read all the sage books and learn all the moral articles, although I didn't take the Jinshi exam, I am also full of economy, Dong Xianwen is not a martial artist, but I can have a good field and a beautiful concubine by relying on a little cleverness, what is the use of studying?" The first emperor said that there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book......"

Xia Xiang wanted to listen to Yan Sun, but he couldn't bear it anymore: "Yan Sun, do you know what is the most important character for a person?" It's not how much you read, it's not about your official position, it's about your character, it's the way of a gentleman, it's kindness and innocence. The so-called gentleman loves money and takes it in the right way, you are more talented than Dong Xian in reading, but you are far less respected and loved than Dong Xian, do you know why? A gentleman has the beauty of an adult, and a gentleman does not win people's love. You have lost even the most basic human principles, you don't know the heavens, the earth, the human etiquette, what virtue can you have? My generation of scholars, when we abide by the way of the gentleman in our hearts and look up at the starry sky above our heads, when we learn Buddhism to learn the way of cause and effect to revere heaven and earth, how can we forget our righteousness just for the sake of greed for money? ”

Ma Zhanguo and Ding Ke were in awe of Xia Xiang!

Although the two of them also respected Xia County before, they mostly respected Xia County's authority rather than moral articles, and Fang Cai's sonorous words made the two of them shocked, and at the same time cast a looking at Xia Xiang.

The literati value morality and martial arts emphasize integrity, civil officials are not greedy for money, military officials are not afraid of death, the luck of the court, and the blessing of the people!

Yan Sun opened his mouth, wanted to refute a few words, and swallowed back the words to his mouth, not because he was afraid of Xia Xiang's prestige as a county lord and did not dare to speak, but Xia Xiang's words were in line with the way of Confucianism, after all, he had studied for many years, and was deeply influenced by the moral articles of the sages, and he still had a sense of awe and moral code in his heart, and he also knew that what he did was indeed out of the way of a man, and it was far from the way of a gentleman.

Yan Sun's throat moved a few times, and then said: "Xia Xianzun's teaching is that the villain used to think too highly of himself, so he had a sense of grievance, and finally caused today's disaster. If you can follow the heart of 'being peaceful in your own ability, and helping the world in others', maybe you can do something now. Alas, regret should not have been obsessed with the mind in the first place. ”

"Hurry up and get to the point, don't go too far." Ma Zhanguo was impatient, and shouted coldly, "Tell me how you used Fu Ke." ”

"In fact, from the time Fu Ke approached the villain, the villain knew that he had other plans for the villain, and he wanted to take advantage of the villain." Yan Sun subconsciously glanced at Dong Li's family, and stopped talking.
