Since Li Yanqing was admitted to the Xie Yuan, he existed like a god in Li Wencun or the Li clan, and the last time Li Daqi set up fifty tables of wine in Li Wencun to celebrate his son, except for the Li clan in Lushanfang, other Li clansmen rushed to congratulate Li Wengui despite Li Wengui's obstruction. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Although Xie Yuan is still far from being an official in the examination, the clansmen have unconsciously regarded Li Yanqing as an official family, especially the clansmen of Li Wencun, who regard Li Yanqing as the future patriarch.

This change in the attitude of the clansmen was also particularly important to Li Yanqing, and with the support of the clansmen, he had the basis for fighting against Li Wengui.

Li Yanqing hurriedly helped Li Zhen sit down, "Third uncle, don't worry, sit down and talk slowly!" ”

Li Zhen sat down, with a look of pain in his eyes, shook his head and said, "Last night, the Li family and the Zhang family had a fight in Xiaohonglin, and the tiger of the Dayin family was beaten to death by more than a dozen descendants of the Zhang family. ”

Li Yanqing was taken aback, why did the Zhang family and the Li family have a vicious fight again, he heard the old patriarch say that ten years ago, the two families of the Li family had a vicious fight in order to fight for water, and five clansmen died, what is the reason for this time?

Li Zhen hated and said: "It's for the ten hectares of fertile land over there in Xiaohonglin, which is the ancestral field of our Li family for generations....."

"Wait!"

Li Yanqing interrupted him, "I heard that the ten hectares of land were divided between Li Wengui and several big clans of Lushanfang, why, did they return the land?" ”

"How could he have such good intentions, we resolutely resisted, and this matter was deadlocked."

At this time, the magpie walked in with a pot of hot tea, and Li Yanqing took the teapot, "I'll come!" ”

He filled Li Zhen's teacup on the table with tea, "Third Uncle, please continue." ”

"During this time, we are going to take advantage of the winter to build a few more canals, but a few days ago the Zhang family came to more than a dozen people, began to measure the land, ready to build a house, Zhang Junbao also appeared, he said that the ten hectares of land Li Wengui has been sold to the Zhang family, of course we don't do it, everyone drove them away, and worried that they would come at night, so everyone took turns to keep vigil, yesterday it was Huzi and three Li family descendants who were guarding there, but more than ten people came at night, and when we rushed there, Huzi was seriously injured and died......"

Speaking of this, Li Zhen slammed his fist on the table, "It's all Li Wengui's bastard!" ”

"Have you ever gone to find Li Wengui?" Li Yanqing asked calmly.

"Of course I looked, when the Zhang family came to measure the land, we went to Li Wengui, Li Wengui denied it vigorously, he said that he was responsible for handling this matter, he went to talk to the Zhang family, but it was only three days before the accident, we were extremely angry and went to Li Wengui again, but Li Wengui ran to Anyang, and everyone had nothing to do, so they unanimously decided to let me come to Brother Qing to think of a way."

Li Yanqing did not rush to the crown angrily, this is what he expected, Li Wengui is greedy for profit, he has monopolized the family property a few years ago, and he seeks the position of patriarch this time is for the family's land, but he has won the support of so many people.

Li Dayin is the family elder who represents Wencunfang, he actively supports Li Wengui, and now that his son is dead, he can be regarded as paying a heavy price for his stupidity.

However, Li Yanqing also saw an opportunity to clean up Li Wengui, he pondered for a moment and then asked: "Third Uncle just said that everyone unanimously decided to find a way to find me, I want to know who this 'everyone' refers to?" Does it include the Lee family of Lushan House? ”

"It has nothing to do with the deer mountain house!"

Li Zhen sighed and said: "Yanqing may not know yet, the Li family has been split into three pieces, Songhefang is relatively far away, close to Tangbei Township, they built their own ancestral hall, and last year they had a separate clan sacrifice, the old patriarch persuaded them a few times to no avail, after the old patriarch died, they did not recognize Li Wengui, so they chose the patriarch themselves."

Then our Li Wen Village and Qianshan Village decided to sacrifice their own clan in the New Year, not with Lushanfang, because the land of Xiaohonglin involves the interests of our two villages, so this time it is the clansmen of Li Wen Village and Qianshan Village who join forces to fight with Zhangjia, and Lushanfang stays out of the matter. ”

Li Yanqing has a general understanding of the ins and outs of the matter, the fuse of the incident is the ten hectares of fertile land on the side of Xiaohonglin, that land is located between Li Wen Village and Qianshan Village, far away from Lushan Town, seeing that the split of the Li family will become a foregone conclusion, once the family is separated, the ten hectares of fertile land in Xiaohonglin will definitely belong to Li Wenfang and Qianshan Fang.

Li Wengui refused to accept this fact, so he cashed out ten hectares of fertile land and sold them to the Zhang family, which led to the second struggle between the Li and Zhang clans.

In the final analysis, Li Wengui is the culprit, and Li Yanqing also realized that if he didn't seize the opportunity to clean up Li Wengui this time, it would be difficult to deal with him in the future.

Li Yanqing lowered his head and paced back and forth in the room, he needed to find the best entry point and give full play to his advantages, and this matter would be solved.

After pondering for a long time, Li Yanqing said to Li Zhen: "It's getting late now, and it's too late to rush back to Li Wen Village, so it's better for us to go back early tomorrow." ”

Li Zhen asked in a low voice again: "Does Yanqing think this matter should be reported to the official?" ”

"We must use the power of the government to deal with this matter, but it is not what the third uncle said to report to the official, I will deal with this matter, the third uncle should have a good rest tonight!"

Li Yanqing arranged for Li Zhen to live in Zhang Xian's courtyard, and he simply packed up and hurried out.

．．．．．．

In a private room in Qingfu Building, Li Yanqing asked Mo Jun, a staff member of Jiang Dadao in Zhi County, to sit down.

In the past few years, almost all the affairs of the magistrate have been handled by Jiang Dadao's two clerical aides, Zhang Qiu and Mo Jun.

Mo Junnian is in his early thirties, a native of the Daimyo Mansion, born in a high family, he is relatively thin, his skin is slightly dark, he has a handful of rat whiskers under his chin, and a pair of small triangular eyes are extremely flexible.

Mo Jun and Zhang Qiu have their own division of labor, Zhang Qiu is responsible for the management of grain warehouses and other materials, while Mo Jun is responsible for household registration land, and Li Yanqing's purpose of asking Mo Jun for help is very clear.

Mo Jun is the proposer of the Shizi Army's plan, and also the mastermind behind the Shizi Army, during the training of the Shizi Army, he had several contacts with Li Yanqing, especially Tong Guan proposed to support Li Yanqing to enter the Taixue School to study, Mo Jun knew very well what this meant?

When Li Yanqing invited him out for dinner, he readily agreed.

"I'm really sorry to let the petty officials break the bank."

Mo Jun looked at the bartender who gave them deer blood, and couldn't help squinting and laughing, he knew that Li Yanqing must have something to ask for himself.

Li Yanqing poured him a glass of wine, "Hasn't the county gentleman come back yet?" ”

Li Yanqing learned before that Jiang Dadao, the magistrate of the county, had personally taken grain and grass to the north, and had been walking for nearly half a month, and the affairs of the county were basically managed by the county.

"I've come back, I just came back today, I'm currently resting at home, and I'll officially go to court tomorrow to hear the case."

Li Yanqing nodded, and said to Mo Jun implicitly: "I asked the master to come out today, because I want to ask the master to help me with something." ”

"Petty official, please say, as long as I can do it, I will do my best to help."

"That's right, I want to know if there has been a transaction of ten hectares of land in Xiaohe Township in recent months, that is, a transaction between Li Wengui and Zhang Junbao."

Mo Jun is in charge of the registration of land transactions in Tangyin County, and any land transaction must pass through his hands, he shook his head and smiled: "Little officials are really joking, ten hectares of land is a thousand acres, I came to Tangyin County for three years at most once and only three hundred acres of transactions, that was two years ago, anyway, I have never been in contact with thousands of acres of land transactions, such a big transaction, just our county approval is not enough, we must go to the state government for the record." ”

Xiaohonglin's grain field was slowly saved by the Li family for decades, and it was not easy to sell it all at once, Li Yanqing suspected that the relationship between Li Wengui and Zhang Junbao was just a private transaction, and he did not obtain the title deed from the government, so he asked Mo Jun to confirm, and the result was just as he guessed, it was indeed a private transaction.

Confirm this, then the next step will be easy, but before he can start to implement it, he needs to open up the joints of Jiang Dadao in Zhixian County.

This is Li Yanqing taking out a cloth bag and pushing it to Mo Jun, "This is fifty taels of gold, I'm afraid there is one more thing that needs the master's help." ”

Mo Jun pushed the cloth bag back, shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the little officials, I have earned a lot in the past few years, and I don't care too much about hundreds of dollars, I can help the little officials, if the little officials must want to show something, then they owe me a favor, maybe one day I will ask the little officials for help." ”

Li Yanqing didn't expect Mo Jun to be so shrewd, gambling on his future, although he didn't know what the future would be like, but it was really pleasant to deal with such a person, he smiled happily: "Then we will make a decision!" ”

．．．．．．

There is a mansion covering an area of about 20 acres in the south of Tangyin County, and the two lanterns at the gate are written with the word 'Li Mansion', which is Li Wengui's house in the county seat, he has been living here for several years, but after the death of his eldest brother Li Wenyou, Li Wengui moved back to Lushan Town, and his second son's family currently lives in the mansion.

At the third watch in the middle of the night, Li Yanqing appeared on the wall of the east courtyard of the Li Mansion, the moonlight was half bright and half dark, and he could vaguely distinguish the situation in the garden, he looked at it for a while, according to the previous statement from Li Bao'er, Li Bao'er and his parents lived in the west courtyard, and the east courtyard was Li Wengui's residence.

Li Yanqing observed for a while, and he soon found that the layout here was exactly the same as the layout of the Li Mansion in Lushan Town, even the pond was crescent-shaped, and this should be the back garden of the east courtyard, even if there were domestic servants to take care of the house, they would live outside, not the inner house.

Li Yanqing jumped off the high wall lightly, bent down and ran all the way, and came to an attic near the pond with a familiar car, there is also an identical attic in the Li Mansion in Lushan Town, which is Li Wenyou's inner study, if Li Wengui completely imitates his brother, then this attic is also Li Wengui's study.

Li Yanqing pried open a window with a dagger, observed for a moment, and it was indeed a study, with two rows of bookshelves placed against the wall, on which were all kinds of precious porcelain, the floor was very clean and spotless, he jumped on the window, took off his shoes, and jumped into the study wearing only socks.

After looking around on the first floor, he didn't find what he was looking for, he went up the stairs to the second floor, the second floor is Li Wengui's resting place, there is a big bed, the bedding is neatly folded, and there is also a row of bookshelves on the east wall, on which some documents are neatly placed, on the bookshelf, Li Yanqing saw a stack of letters, so he carefully took out a letter from his arms and stuffed it into this stack of letters.

He immediately left the study quickly and left Li Wengui's mansion by the same route.
