Chapter 489: The threat of Liu Pixian's father and son

After Fang Xing took Su Bawei, he didn't interrogate him, but just imprisoned him in the backyard. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Let me out......"

"Adult, small wrong!"

“……”

Dumbfounded, he closed the words in his hand, frowned, and said, "Why is Uncle holding them?" ”

Fang Wu monitored the row of houses where the Su family was imprisoned, and said, "They sell illicit salt. ”

He said dumbly: "That's the worst crime, isn't it?" ”

"Of course."

Trafficking in illicit salt is a felony, as most people know.

"Then why don't you put them in jail?"

If he was questioned like this, Fang Wu would definitely be impatient, but it would be different, he said softly, "I haven't found any evidence that they sell illicit salt." ”

Because it is rumored that Jubaoshanwei is going to close the street, most of the people who are worried about being arrested have closed their doors and walked through the wall when they go out.

So Fang Xing asked people to spread the word that he was here to arrest the smugglers, which alleviated the panic in the hearts of the people.

"But they're really noisy!"

Tilting his head in a daze, he thought for a while: "Fang Wu, I remember that there is a large courtyard in the west of the city, which is said to be haunted, and no one dares to walk that way at night. ”

Fang Wu was stunned and said, "Really? That has nothing to do with private salt, right? ”

Looking at the sky gloomily at a forty-five degree angle, he said faintly: "But I think there should be some ...... in there What an unsightly thing! ”

"Fang Wu, the master called you."

Fang Wu answered, and hurriedly went inside.

He muttered, "Why doesn't anyone believe me?" ”

When Fang Wu arrived at the back, Fang Xing saw him and ordered, "Someone is coming soon, you take someone to pay attention to the entourage of the person who came." ”

Fang Wu took the order and left, Huang Zhong said with a smile: "This Liu Pixian is the leading figure in Yangzhou Mansion, and every prefect must first visit Liu's house at the beginning of his appointment, otherwise this official will definitely be unstable." ”

Fang Xing got up and was about to go to the front hall, and when he heard the words, he said: "This is the power of the gentry, and when this power becomes bigger and bigger in the future, it will really be a big tail." ”

Later, the emperor sent people to collect taxes, but the local gentry instigated the people to make trouble, and what brocade guards and eunuchs became a joke.

Compete with the people!

The emperor wanted to collect commercial taxes, but was refuted by the ministers as 'competing with the people for profit' and 'good goods'.

And those wealthy businessmen who rely on opening the sea to become rich are the masters behind all this.

Later, the Jin merchants sprung up by smuggling the grasslands, echoing the north and south of the wealthy merchants in the south, and the entire Ming Dynasty can be said to have become a merchant empire.

The cabinet is the spokesperson of the merchants, and the hundred officials have long been bought by the 'filial piety' of various names, and only the emperor is left, who is really alone.

Even the city gate was opened, and the emperor was the last to know!

In the front hall, seeing Fang Xing striding over, Liu Pixian trembled and was helped up by Liu Shanren, and arched his hand: "Xinghebo, please forgive me, the old man is old and rude." ”

Fang Xing smiled and arched his hand and said, "Mr. Bixian is very polite, please take a seat." ”

Liu Pixian and Yang Shiqi were like words, and after sitting down, he stared at Fang Xing with cloudy eyes, and said slowly: "Xing and Uncle are young and promising, the old man has been unwell recently, and he is late!" ”

"I praised the public, Fang was lucky, and he was not as respectable as the public."

After the two exchanged a few words, seeing that Fang Xing had not taken the initiative to mention the bloody incident on the street yesterday, Liu Shanren took a chance.

"Uncle, dare to ask what happened yesterday?"

Fang Xing was stunned when he heard this: "Yesterday's incident? What happened yesterday? ”

Liu Pixian secretly cursed the little fox in his heart, and then coughed dryly: "Xinghebo, Yangzhou Mansion has been peaceful for a long time, and the swords can't move!" ”

Fang Xing listened with a smile and did not refute.

Liu Pixian glanced at him, and then said slowly: "Since the old man returned to his hometown, it has been a great relief to see Zhengtonghe. After that, I just want to swim in the forest, this remnant of life, but the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, many people have begged the old man to come forward, imploring Xing and Bo to look at the thin face of the old man, extinguish the sword soldiers, so that the people can live in peace, then they are all happy......"

After finishing speaking, Liu Pixian took a sip of tea and looked at Fang Xing lightly.

Fang Xing was a little stunned, he smiled and said: "Pi Xiangong, the crime of yesterday's incident is not in my department, it is Su Bawei's handwriting, and then Fang was furious, so he copied the Su family, and found some things......"

Seeing Fang Xing's expression smiling, Liu Pixian interrupted: "Xinghebo, the old man has been traveling for many years, and he has always been kind to others, but he has made a lot of friends, many friends and many roads, what do you say?" ”

Fang Xing snorted and said: "Fang doesn't have many friends, but they are all heart-to-heart, I don't know who Pi Xiangong's friends are?" ”

Since returning to his hometown, this is the first time someone has ridiculed Liu Pixian, but his city government is not shallow, so he just smiled and said: "The old man has impeached people before, and when I think of those days, I am really afraid!" ”

It's a threat!

Fang Xing's smile was closed, and he said indifferently: "Bi Xiangong is old, isn't it good to recuperate at home?" I have to come out and wade into the muddy water, but the fish in this muddy water are not easy to touch! ”

These words wiped out the previous 'harmonious atmosphere', Liu Shanren stared at the other party with angry eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle, my father is all over the Ming ......Dynasty."

It's still a threat!

At this time, Huang Zhong ignored the existence of Liu Pixian's father and son, walked to Fang Xing's side from the outside, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Fang Xing's expression remained unchanged, and after Huang Zhong finished speaking, he got up and said, "This uncle has a business catechesis, so he won't accompany Bi Xiangong and send off guests." ”

This is rude, and it is equivalent to driving people away.

Ordinary people treat guests, basically the guests themselves observe their words and emotions to decide how to behave, but Fang Xing's hard way of chasing customers, to be honest, Liu Pixian has only encountered it in his life when he first entered the officialdom.

However, the Shangguan who made Liu Pixian lose face at that time, was hit hard by Liu Pixian, who had accumulated strength, more than ten years later, and as a result, when he was about to retire safely, the whole family was exiled.

Liu Pixian stretched out his hand to stop his son, and there was no anger in his muddy old eyes, but he smiled and said: "Uncle Xinghe is high and powerful, and there are many affairs, the old man shouldn't have bothered much, so he took his leave." ”

Huang Zhong sent the father and son to the door, watched them get into the carriage, and hurriedly went to find Fang Xing.

And Liu Pixian, who was in the carriage, tore off his kind face, and his hideous old face surprised Liu Shanren.

"Vertical Zi'an dares to insult me!"

With a low roar with phlegm, a pair of white hands grabbed a book and tore it in half.

After Liu Pixian finished venting, he sneered: "At this moment, those twists and turns must have been sent to His Majesty's case, and Fang Xing's actions are self-defeating!" ”

Liu Shanren said proudly: "Father, you still have the foresight, you sent fast horses early, if those officials who have benefited dare not come forward, everyone will burn the jade!" ”

Liu Pixian hid his smugness and said in a deep voice: "If there is some big incident in Yangzhou Mansion when the canal is opened, presumably this is also what His Majesty does not want to see, and Fang Xing is in chaos, if it was in the Taizu Dynasty, he would have died a long time ago and had no place to be buried!" ”

Liu Shanren laughed and said: "Father has no last resort, wait for His Majesty's holy decree, presumably that Fang Xing must regret it, when the time comes, our family will close the door, let him beg and don't care!" ”

Liu Pixian snorted coldly: "I have been traveling for my father for many years, and this is the first time I have been driven away, this revenge will not be avenged, and I will not be blind to death!" ”
