In the minds of the people, the folk tabloids are a weather vane, the foundation of the founding of the country, the romances of officials, and the unreported things of the imperial court can be conveyed to the ears of the people through the tabloids. The people are happy and curious, and everything is referred to by the tabloids, supplemented by the morning newspaper. Xiao Jia saw that the time had come, so she patiently explained to Lian Ruohan and Cao Shuli why she wanted to accept the "Yuan Xuan Dynasty Daily", "Therefore, in the hands of mercenary people, the tabloid is a money-making tool used to catch wind and shadows, and fear that the world will not be chaotic." In the hands of those who support the new law, it is a court tool used to promote the new law, fabricate facts, guide the wind, and mislead the people. Now in Shangjing, "Yuan Xuan Dynasty News" is the first tabloid among the people, supporting the new law in their positions, and mostly singing praises to the Star King and Hou Pingpan. "Yuan Xuan Dynasty Daily" is the second tabloid among the people, winning with anecdotes and legends. When I took it, it was like an extra weapon in my hand......"

Even Ruohan and Cao Shuli are such smart women, if it was before, the two of them may not be able to understand what Xiao Jia said, but in the current situation, in the capital, the grass and trees are all soldiers, not only King Jing, King Qing, King Yun, and King Jian are all involved, even the Cao family is not immune, they must stand in line, and the two immediately understood Xiao Jia's thoughtfulness.

Lian Ruohan thought about it for a while and thought of a more long-term plan: "In addition to making "Yuan Xuan Dynasty Daily" available to me in the wind, I can also let the tabloids be more prosperous and always publicize." ”

"That's what I mean." Xiao Jia said what he thought in his heart, "In the future, the good times will always be there, and he will be the owner of "Yuan Xuan Dynasty Daily". ”

Xiao Jia alone, regardless of financial resources or strength, is far from good times, if good times take over the "Yuan Xuan Dynasty News", anyone in the capital who wants to find trouble with the "Yuan Xuan Dynasty News" will retreat.

How could Lian Ruohan not understand Xiao Jia's intentions, and calmly accepted Xiao Jia's proposal: "You and I are a family, needless to say." In the future, all the expenses of the "Yuan Xuan Dynasty Daily" were included in the good times. ”

Xiao Jia nodded and said, "Yes, I will obey the orders of Lian Niangzi." ”

"Come less." Lian Ruohan smiled lightly, "Between you and my sisters, you don't have to say these extraneous words. Mrs. Xiao, when it comes to Zhending, I have something to ask for......"

Xiao Jia didn't have time to think about it, and said casually: "If you can, you will do your best." ”

"Actually, for you, it's just a small thing, for me, it's ......" Lian Ruohan rebelled against his father and rebelled against the family, after all, she was also a woman, and when it came to marriage, she was still ashamed to say it, and couldn't help blushing, "It's just ...... I don't know what to say. ”

Ling'er guessed her mother's thoughts, although she didn't approve of her marrying Xia Xiang, she still had to relieve her mother: "My lady was originally the daughter of the Cui family in Qinghe, but because her father broke up, she changed her surname to her mother's surname. The head of the family forced the lady to marry the lady, and he had to marry the lady to Lu Zhiyue, although the lady was not very willing to marry Xia Langjun, but she had no choice, in front of King Jing and the head of the family, she said that she had made a private agreement with Xia Langjun for life. Although he is compromised, he is much better than Lu Zhiyue. It's just that the lady is a woman, how can she take the initiative to speak to Xia Langjun? Mrs. Xiao is not only the old friend of Xia Langjun, but also has a good relationship with my lady, so she can be a matchmaker. ”

Xiao Jia didn't expect Lian Ruohan to want her to be a matchmaker, and while she was surprised, a deep sense of loss flashed in her heart. But then calm was restored, since Mr. said that it was impossible for her and Xia Xiang to be together, it was better to fulfill Xia Xiang and Lian Niangzi, which could be regarded as a beautiful thing.

Cao Shuli lowered her head deeply, the handkerchief in her hand was circling around, and she didn't know what she thought, but she suddenly raised her head again, and her eyes flashed with a crystal light: "Lian Niangzi, I will be a matchmaker for you with Xiao Niangzi, okay?" ”

Lian Ruohan was stunned, she didn't expect Cao Shuli to be so calm and generous, she was greatly moved in her heart, and held Cao Shuli's hand: "Thank you, sister Shuli." You and I can be the love of Empress E and Nuying. ”

Cao Shuli naturally knew that Empress E and Nuying were the second daughters of Yao, and they both married Shun later, so she blushed: "Hmph, it depends on whether he has this blessing." ”

Cao Shujun sighed faintly: "If I pick two doors on one shoulder, I can marry Xiao Niangzi and Ling'er as wives at the same time, and I have to be a man who is not envious of immortals." ”

"Phew, who's going to marry you!" Ling'er snorted, and her face suddenly turned red.

Xiao Jia looked indifferent and lonely, and in the loneliness, there was a trace of indescribable joy: "Xia Langjun can get Lian Niangzi and Cao Niangzi, two ladies who are like flowers and jade, it is really a blessing that he has cultivated for several lifetimes." Just be a good person to the end, and I'll be a matchmaker for the two of you. ”

While speaking, Xiao Jia took out another note and handed it to Lian Ruohan: "Lian Niangzi, I overheard the conversation between Zhang Hou and Shi'er last night, and asked Shen Rongchang to write it down, I wanted to publish it in today's "Yuan Xuan Dynasty Daily", but later I felt that it was inappropriate, so I temporarily scattered it. You see, when is it good to publish? ”

Lian Ruohan took a look, his expression suddenly became a little solemn, and said: "It's better for Xia County to decide this matter, and the things above the court make him worry more." Moreover, he is more far-sighted than we are. Such a troublesome matter was still handled by him. ”

If Xia Xiang knew that several women were coming by car at this time, he would probably not be so happy. Standing on the bank of the Hutuo River, watching the rolling river go east, Xia Xiang couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The son said on the river: The deceased is like a husband, reluctant to give up day and night, the official said by the river, the Hutuo River is not dredged, and it will become a disaster if it is exposed." ”

"It doesn't rhyme, it doesn't become a poem, it's a bad review." Although Mantuo didn't laugh, her eyes were full of smiles, she stood on the right side of Xia Xiang with a sword in both hands, her expression was faint, "Dong Xian's death really involved many people, in addition to Chengtian Qing in Shile County, there is also the deputy commander of the forbidden army in Shile Station, Chi Zhi!" ”

A cold wind blew, Xia Xiang sneezed a few times, and said with concern: "Xia Xianzun should go back to the county office, don't catch a cold." ”

"I'm afraid someone misses Mr." Xiao Wu grinned, "One thought, two scolding and three thoughts, one sneeze is someone thinking, two sneezes are scolding, and three sneezes are someone chattering." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Xiang sneezed again and said with a smile: "I sneezed five or six times, what do you say?" ”

Xiao Wu scratched his head and smiled: "That's several ladies talking about Mr. together." Oops, it must be that even the lady is coming back soon. ”

Manta said leisurely: "The wind will come to an end, and there will be a day of dawn, and the words will not sleep, and the words will be sneezed." Knowing its yin, its thunder, not sleeping, willing to say ...... The saying that some people want to sneeze comes from the Book of Songs. Even the famous and bold lyricist Xin Fangchi also wrote a poem about sneezing - mountains and waters. More than a thousand miles of happiness. Don't shy away from the morning and wake up early. It's all for you. Don't be afraid to worry about people. I'm just afraid of being molested. Because there is no land for a magpie. I don't have time to say it. ”

"The lady of Mantuo can be literate and martial, much stronger than Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu will learn from Shi Niang in the future." Xiao Wu waved his fist, as if he had made up his mind.

Mantuo ignored Xiao Wu, only immersed in his emotions, and looked into the distance lightly.

"Let's go, talk as we go." Xia Xiang did not go back to the county office, but walked along the riverside with Mantuo and Xiao Wu, followed by the county lieutenant Ma Zhanguo and the head catcher Ding Ke.

Mantuo carefully draped Xia Xiang's cloak.

Autumn is already deep, the willows and poplars on the riverside have almost lost their leaves, and occasionally a few ginkgo trees are sprinkled with golden yellow all over the ground. Xia Xiang walked slowly, but he straightened everything out in his heart.

Mantuo, Ma Zhanguo, and Liancheng escorted Dong Duan and several people to Shile County, and everything went smoothly at the beginning. After arriving in Shile County, when Dong Duan took over the business of Dong's firm, as Xia Xiang expected, Zhuang Feifei found Dong Duan with an IOU and asked Dong Duan's brother to repay the debts and repay the 300,000 yuan that Dong Xian owed him.

Dong Duan is a scholar, where does he know business and management, and when he saw Dong Xian's handwriting, he believed it and wanted to repay the money. But he was stopped by Mantuo, who guessed that there was fraud in this matter, and had an idea, handed over the IOU to Yan Sun, and asked Yan Sun to verify the authenticity of the IOU. Yan Sun claimed that the IOU was genuine, and he was on the side when Dong Xian made the IOU.

Mantuo asked Dong Li again, and Dong Li also said that the IOU was true, and said that she had heard Dong Xian say that he owed Zhuang a huge amount of money.

Although Dong is now the richest man in Shile County, 300,000 is also a large amount. The Dong firm, which came to a standstill due to Dong Xian's death, now has only more than 100,000 yuan on its books, and if it wants to pay off Zhuang's extraordinary debts, it must be mortgaged with real estate.

Zhuang Feifei didn't want the most profitable fleet and money village of Dong's firm, nor did he want the easiest cloth shop to realize, and specified the granary and grain of Dong's firm, and said that the granary and grain could only be discounted by 100,000 yuan, but he and Dong Xian had known each other for many years, and for the sake of many years of friendship, he was pitiful that Dong Duan didn't know how to operate, so he was willing to use the granary and grain to offset the debt of 300,000 yuan. The high-sounding on the surface can't hide the greed behind it, Zhuang Feifei is too ugly to eat, if he has a little affection, he won't let Mantuo almost kill Zhuang Feifei with a sword under his anger.

Fortunately, Mantuo held back, because she also knew that Xia Xiang sent her to protect Dong Duanquan, not to do it with others. Dealing with the government has Ma Zhanguo, and there is a lot of auditing and reconciliation.

Ma Zhanguo and Liancheng found out that the IOU was forged within half a day, and Ma Zhanguo had read countless people and handled cases for many years, and they could see at a glance that Yan Sun had a big problem. He asked Dong Duan to call the apprentice who followed Yan Sun in the account room, he was responsible for coercion and temptation, and Lian Cheng was responsible for inducing him from how guilty he would be if he was a bookkeeper and stolen himself, and the apprentice confessed all the facts under the repeated interrogation of the two in only one round - the IOU was forged by Yan Sun imitating Dong Xian's handwriting and signature, with Zhuang Feifei.

Ma Zhanguo has also seen a lot of things where Mr. Accounts and outsiders cheat the owner's money, but it is the first time he has seen someone who is so shameless as Yan Sun that he has no principles and bottom line, and he can't help but be annoyed. As the saying goes, taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, eating the king's fortune, loyalty to the king, loyalty and loyalty are the foundation of human beings. What made Ma Zhanguo even more angry was that his inadvertent movements and expressions from Yansun and Dong Li, as well as the quiet tacit understanding between the two, were enough to conclude that the two must have adultery.

Such a wicked person who eats inside and outside, a lewd wife cheats people and money, and not killing is not enough to make the people angry, if it weren't for being the county lieutenant of Zhending, Ma Zhanguo would have beaten Yan Sun to relieve his anger, and he hated eating people who climbed inside and outside the pit and abducted people the most in his life.

It only took Liancheng three days to sort out the accounts and hand them over to Mantuo and Ma Zhanguo for review. Mantuo and Ma Zhanguo told Dong Duan the truth that the IOU was forged by Yan Sun and Zhuang Feifei, and Dong Duan was extremely angry and wanted to immediately twist Yan Sun to report to the official, but was stopped by Ma Zhanguo. Ma Zhanguo knew that Xia Xianzun asked him to come, not to ask him to send Yan Sun and others to Shile County Ya, but to escort them back to Zhending.

Although he had Zhending County documents and Xia Xiang's handwritten letter, he kept an extra eye, first handling the private affairs of Dong Duan to take over Dong's firm, and then docking with Fan Li, the county governor of Shile County.

Now that the evidence is conclusive and Yan Sun can be arrested, Ma Zhanguo came to the Shile County Ya and handed over the official document and Xia Xiang's letter. After seeing Fan Li, he explained his intentions and proposed to escort Yan Sun and Zhuang Feifei back to Zhending for trial. Fan Li has no objection, he and Ma Zhanguo are also old acquaintances, and they went to Zhending to handle the case a few years ago, and they also received Ma Zhanguo's assistance, and they immediately handled the approval.

Ma Zhanguo wanted to stay for a few more days and strive to collect more evidence, but Liancheng said that it was the best policy to lead Yan Sun and Zhuang Feifei to leave as soon as possible, after all, Shile was not a place under the jurisdiction of Xia County, and there were many dreams at night, so it would be bad if something went wrong.

Dong Duan disagreed, although he usually didn't ask about business, now that he has taken over Dong's firm, he is also a figure in the city, even Pei Xianzun will let him score three points, and Ma Zhanguo is a dignified Zhending County, so there will be no accidents in public and private. Mantuo felt that Liancheng's words made a lot of sense, don't look at Liancheng's taciturn, but he was very thoughtful, well-informed, and his words and deeds were not leaky. The main thing is that after Mantuo came to Shile, he could clearly feel that there was a strange atmosphere permeating, not to mention that Shile County had already known that they had come to Shile, and no one took the initiative to entertain him in assisting Dong Duan to take over Dong's firm.

Dong's Commercial Bank is the first commercial bank in the city, and the handover is also a major event, and the county government does not care about it. And except for Zhuang Feifei, none of the wealthy businessmen in the city came to congratulate Dong Duan on becoming the shopkeeper of the Dong firm, and it seems that the city has received any order not to have any contact with the Dong firm.

Manta realized that something was wrong. Although the contact between Ma Zhanguo and Fan Li was quite smooth and she got the approval, she always felt uneasy.

Manta immediately decided and set off immediately. Ma Zhanguo was reluctant, and he also wanted to find out who Zhuang Feifei was behind the scenes. However, it is not easy to refute Mantuo, although Xia Xianzun did not explicitly let him obey Mantuo's arrangement, he also knew that Mantuo was Xia Xianzun's most trusted person, so he had no choice but to bet on Yan Sun, Dong Li and Zhuang Feifei, and set off overnight.

Liancheng continued to stay in Shile, helped Dong Duan straighten out the accounts and completely took over Dong's firm before leaving.

A group of several people walked in the middle of the night, sleepy and tired, and when they walked to Changle Town, which was more than ten miles away from the junction of Shile and Zhending, Ma Zhanguo proposed that he would go on the road early tomorrow morning, and he would arrive in Zhending in a few hours, and nothing would happen. Mantuo wanted to enter the territory of Zhending overnight, but when he saw that people were sleepy and tired, he couldn't walk anymore, so he didn't force it anymore.

What Mantuo didn't know was that while they were resting in Changle Town, the people sent by Ding Ke to escort Dong Xian's body had already arrived in Shile. At the same time, Gao Jianyuan also rushed to Shile from the capital and met Pei Shuozhang.

It was night, Pei Shuozhang was sweating profusely and trembling, so he hurriedly asked people to find Tian Qing and Fan Li, ask for it, and the two went separately.

Many people in the city and county still remember the situation at that time until many years later - Tian Qing broke into Dong's mansion with torches and lanterns, and despite Dong Duan's opposition, he snatched the body of Dong Xian who had just been sent to him and buried it in a grave in the west of the city overnight.

Fan Li and his entourage of more than a dozen people galloped out of the city on horseback, headed south, and in a hurry, kicked over many night market stalls on the side of the road, causing the people to exclaim. Some people speculate that something great has happened that the county lieutenant of Fan County is so excited, is it because he wants to arrest some mountain bandits? However, there have been no mountain bandits in Wangxiang Mountain for more than ten years.

In the early hours of the morning, Fan Li and his entourage hurriedly stepped up their horses and finally stopped Ma Zhanguo and his party in Sanjie Village, which was only one mile away from the boundary of Zhending County. Fan Li first showed Ma Zhanguo Pei Shuozhang's edict, and wanted to keep the three of them in Shile for trial on the grounds that Zhuang Feifei, Yan Sun, and Dong Li were Shile people.

Ma Zhanguo regretted it a lot, regretting that he shouldn't have followed Mantuo's advice in the first place, if he was in the realm of Zhending now, Fan Li would have nothing to do even if he caught up with them. Now in the territory of Shile, Fan Li has brought more than a dozen people, and he can't run away, so he can only argue with Fan Li and try to persuade Fan Li.

Fan Li naturally refused to let Ma Zhanguo go, Pei Shuozhang gave a death order, if he couldn't bring back Zhuang Feifei and others, he would be asked. After some theory, he saw that Ma Zhanguo refused to give in, so he had to grit his teeth and start it. It is better to offend Ma Zhanguo than to provoke Pei Shuozhang to be angry, Pei Shuozhang is his immediate boss and can decide his future.

Seeing that Fan Li still wanted to take the initiative to do it, he shot like lightning, and between a few dodges, Fan Li and his party were beaten to the ground.
