The negotiation between the two officially began, how could Fang Yuan be led by her by the nose and take the topic away, and smiled noncommittally and said, "What about Qian Lao?" Since the last time Suzhou Mansion said goodbye, I really missed Qian Lao. No, I just arrived in Suzhou Mansion and was busy with military and political affairs, so I came to ask Mr. Qian for advice, ha! ”

Liu Ru pursed his lips and chuckled, "Elder Qian has gone to visit Jiangzuo Daru Huang Daozhou, what does Lord Fang want to ask, and the concubine can also answer on his behalf!" ”

Huang Daozhou's family was in Zhejiang, but he didn't expect Qian Qianyi to slip away so quickly in trouble, so he slipped out of Nanjing and took refuge in Zhejiang.

This Qian Qianyi's nest made Fang Yuan secretly sneer, no wonder when Qian Qianyi was needed to commit suicide and martyrdom, he would say that the water was too cold and he didn't dare to jump into the river to commit suicide.

Fang Yuan said slowly, "Since Qian Qianyi is afraid of crime and absconded, it is the same as letting the Qian clan people fight first. ”

Liu Ru pretended to be stunned and asked, "What crime did Old Qian commit, Lord Fang actually ignored the laws of the Ming Dynasty and wanted to destroy the Qian family?" ”

Fang Yuan saw that she was knowingly asking, and said coldly, "Liangshan Liukou attacked the imperial governor, King Yong, and King Wuyue, can Mrs. Qian give an explanation on behalf of Qian Lao?" Mrs. Qian must not deny it, I happened to capture a few Liangshan leaders, and I can confront Mrs. Qian face to face. ”

In the face of Fang Yuan's aggressive offensive, Liu Ru still didn't have the slightest panic, and said unhurriedly, "Lord Fang is asking about Liangshan Liukou?" That's really the right person, because Qian Lao didn't know about the Liangshan Liukou affair, and it was all planned by the concubine! ”

Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, before he came, he thought that Liu Ru might deny it or intercede for the Qian clan, but he never imagined that Liu Ru would take all these big crimes on himself in order to protect the Qian clan.

This was really much beyond Fang Yuan's expectations.

Fang Yuan held back his anger and said sarcastically, "The assassin who sent me to assassinate me outside the gate of Suzhou Mansion was also planned by Mrs. Qian?" ”

Liu Ru didn't seem to hear his ridicule, but still smiled shallowly, "Lord Fang is right again, this is also planned by the concubine." ”

She repeatedly apologized for Qian Qianyi, and made it clear that she regarded Fang Yuan as a fool and a wronged leader, Fang Yuan's anger had reached its peak, and she said sharply, "Qian Lao has been an official in the court for many years, and he should know that the assassination of the prince is a crime of joint sitting and clan extermination, even if Mrs. Qian is planning, he can't get out of it!" ”

Liu Ru is face was all calm, and said lightly, "Lord Fang doesn't know, Qian Lao has already written a letter of resignation and expelled the concubine from the Qian family." ”

She clapped her hands, and the maid beside her took out a document she had prepared earlier and handed it to Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan took it and took a look, and sure enough, it was a letter of divorce from his wife, and it was clearly written in the letter of divorce, Qian Qianyi had expelled Liu Ru from Qian Men half a year ago. Any crime planned by Liu Ru in the past six months has nothing to do with Qian Qianyi.

In order to clear up the relationship, this Qian Qianyi simply did everything, hiding behind the woman's back, and also resorted to such a dirty trick as divorce of his wife.

Fang Yuan can now be regarded as seeing that the shamelessness of the Donglin Party is completely bottomless.

"Haha! Qian Qianyi is really thoughtful, but ......"

Fang Yuan laughed angrily and scolded, "This kind of charge of Ling Chi's execution, Mrs. Qian dares to carry it alone." Does Mrs. Qian think that we would not have taken you to prison and tortured you severely? ”

Liu Ru was fearless, and Ying Ying saluted him and said, "Of course, Lord Fang will enforce the law impartially. However, this matter is only the crime of the concubine, and it has nothing to do with the Qian clan. There are also servants and maidservants in Hongdou Villa who are also innocent, Lord Fang wants to win the hearts of the people of the four mansions, so please don't embarrass these subordinates. ”

"You!"

Liu Ruyi's Zhenlie was far beyond Fang Yuan's previous estimate, and with a raise of his hand, he disrupted Fang Yuan's wishful thinking of asking for the guilt and arresting the Qian clan members in prison.

Fang Yuan was so angry that he trembled all over, not only because he was angry at Qian Qianyi's shamelessness, but also because he was angry that Liu Ru was protecting the people of the Qian clan, and he could even give up his life.

Fang Yuan took out the tax account, as well as the land information, and threw it heavily in front of Liu Rusi, "Qian Qianyi's unpaid land tax in the past fifteen years has 25,000 taels, how can this account be calculated?" It was also planned by Mrs. Qian?! ”

Liu Ru silently looked at the mountain of ironclad evidence handed over by Fang Yuan, and said after a little muttering, "The unpaid Tian Fu is the negligence of Qian Lao before, and it is also the negligence of the Suzhou government. Thank you Lord Fang for your suggestions, we will make up for it as soon as possible. Lord Fang, owing the land endowment is not a big crime of exterminating the clan, the people of the Qian clan can live, right! ”

Liu Ru readily agreed to make up for the field endowment, just to give up his wealth to avoid disaster.

Fang Yuan's door-to-door questioning this time was resolved by Liu Ru is disregard for his life and even the beating, which made Fang Yuan feel a deep sense of frustration.

Of course, he can choose to ignore the nonsense of divorce and continue to investigate the Qian family and correct the Qian clan. However, if even the clansmen who are accomplices of Qian Qianyi want to correct the law, then Liu Ruyi, who admits that he is the main culprit, will commit a bigger crime and will inevitably give the Qian family a funeral.

Fang Yuan's heart was hesitating and struggling, and he was executed together with the Qian clan and Liu Ruyi; Or in order to keep Liu Ruis and let go of the Qian family.

Liu Ru also saw through Fang Yuan's dilemma, this time she saw Fang Yuan's admiration, and gambled with her own life against the drugged one, forcing Fang Yuan to make a choice, which was also the only way to keep the Qian family from being beheaded.

Of course, all the choices were not in her hands, but in Fang Yuan's thoughts.

She silently poured Fang Yuan a cup of fragrant tea and waited for Fang Yuan's final choice.

Fang Yuan drank a cup of fragrant tea, secretly took a few deep breaths, suppressed the monstrous anger, and his eyes burst out with a chilling cold light, "Okay, I will limit the money family to make up the due field endowment within five days." Also, the Qian family must write a confession and make it public, admit the fault of the arrears of the field tax, promise not to commit it again in the future, and call on all the Donglin Party members to honestly make up for the field payment, and I will no longer pursue the matter! ”

As soon as these words came out, Fang Yuan made a choice, in his heart, keeping Liu Ru is was more important than killing the Qian clan to vent his anger.

While Liu Ru secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she was also uncontrollable moved.

Qian Qianyi has absconded in fear of crime, since Fang Yuan can't arrest him and put him in prison, he can only retreat and ask the Qian family to write a letter of repentance to make an example of the chickens and monkeys, so that the Donglin Party people in Suzhou Mansion will open their eyes and take a look, and the Tian Fu owed to the imperial court, even if it is a Donglin Party boss like Qian Qianyi, he must spit it out.

Fang Yuan's move was already the biggest concession, and it was entirely for Liu Ruye's sake, and the Qian family's children were punished lightly.

Liu Ru was ruthless with Fang Yuan this time, and the Qian family could only make up for the merits, calm Fang Yuan's anger, and pass the test safely only by assisting Fang Yuan in collecting the outstanding field taxes from the Donglin Party.

She didn't hesitate at all, and nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I will write this letter of repentance on behalf of the Qian family, and I will hand it over to the Suzhou Mansion tomorrow." ”

Fang Yuan went out to no avail, only got back a letter of repentance, he was very annoyed, and got up angrily and said, "Mrs. Qian, you have impressed me today, Qian Qianyi, this old miscellaneous is really a blessing, we will have a meeting in the future!" ”

Liu Ru looked at Fang Yuan calmly and said, "Lord Fang, don't you arrest the concubine and put her in prison and sentence Ling Chi again?" ”

"Mrs. Qian, you won the bet!"

Fang Yuan was extremely aggrieved today, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he didn't care about his demeanor or not, he waved his sleeves violently, and swept all the tea sets on the stone table to the ground.

"Bang bang!"

The work of the famous master of Suzhou tea set, the high-grade purple sand pot, and the purple sand cup were smashed.

Liu Ru looked at the broken purple clay pot, and Fang Yuan under the rage, his eyes flashed with gloom, and he saluted Yingying, "The concubine can't win Lord Fang, it's only because of Lord Fang's magnanimity that the concubine Ling Chi's death crime was pardoned." ”

Fang Yuan shouted angrily, "Mrs. Qian, please tell Qian Qianyi, don't think that hiding in Zhejiang is safe, we will not arrest him and bring him to justice, Ling Chi will be executed, and he will not be a man!" ”

He threw down the vicious threat and turned away in anger.

The maidservant beside Liu Ru leaned over to pick up the fragments, and muttered in her mouth, "This Governor Fang destroys the door at every turn, Ling Chi, it is really tyrannical. ”

Liu Ru looked at Fang Yuan's back as he left angrily, Fang Yuan had already counted his deep affection for her, his eyes were already full of tears of emotion, and he scolded, "Nonsense! He is already very aggrieved today, if he is really tyrannical, the Red Bean Villa at this moment has already been bleeding. ”

Only then did the maid know that the people in Hongdou Villa had just walked around the death line, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly stopped her voice.

It wasn't until he got out of the backyard gate that Qin Zhan greeted him and asked, "Boss, these detained Qian clan people, do we arrest them back to the mansion, or do we execute them on the spot." ”

Fang Yuan said with a blank face, "Let all the people in the Qian Mansion go." ”

Led three hundred brocade clothes to move the crowd to ask for the crime, Qin Zhan thought that he would directly copy Hongdou Villa today and kill a river of blood, but Fang Yuan's order was that no one was arrested, and if he didn't kill, he would go home.

Qin Zhan was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Boss, are you really all released?!" ”

Fang Yuan repeated coldly again, "It's all gone!" ”

Qin Zhan was both helpless and puzzled, but he didn't dare to disobey Fang Yuan's order, so he could only order Jinyiwei to release him, and then go home in vain.

On the way back to Suzhou City, Fang Yuan's face was extremely gloomy and silent.

Qin Zhan had already seen his suppressed anger, and said tentatively, "Boss, is it because of Mrs. Qian?" ”

Fang Yuan traveled dozens of kilometers, and the farther away from Hongdou Villa, his anger also subsided a little, "Don't mention her again, this time it's not all without gain, the Qian family has promised to make up for the outstanding land endowment and write another letter of repentance." With this letter of repentance from the leaders of the Donglin Party, those who dare not pay the Donglin Party can justifiably arrest people and ask them for their crimes. ”

"Is this a harvest? On weekdays, Jinyi guards come to the door to ask for people's lives, not to ask for money and repentance. ”

Qin Zhan muttered softly, and couldn't help but ask, "Boss, did we really let the Qian family go?" ”

Fang Yuan's face sank again, "Qian Qianyi has absconded to Zhejiang, and he will not be able to be arrested for a while. Let's put the affairs of the Qian family first, let's look forward, the next target is the Weng family of the Dongting Business Gang! ”

As soon as he said this, he let go of the Qian clan by default, Qin Zhan sighed and said, "Boss, it turns out that you have true feelings for this Mrs. Qian!" ”

Fang Yuan was hit by what he said, and he was irritable again, and he whipped violently, and the war horse under his crotch walked away, leaving everyone far behind.
