Sign-and-hold room.

Tao Sheng had a faint smile on his face, and was silently looking at Li Qian, who was sitting in the lower position, as if he had long forgotten the fierce confrontation between the two in Fang Caitang, as well as the little unhappiness in his heart.

At this moment, he has no majestic demeanor of a provincial constitution when he passed through the hall, and it seems that he has already mastered the unique skill of "changing face", and in a blink of an eye, he has regained the approachability that a kind old man should have, looking at Li Qian's eyes, it is completely like looking at his own children and nephews, living like a ------ smiling tiger.

Faced with such a person who hides a knife in his smile and turns his face like a book, Li Qian really doesn't know whether he should scold him for being shameless, or should he be scolded for being shameless?

Coughing lightly, Li Qian spoke: "I don't know what is the matter with the summons of Zhentai?" ”

"There is such a ------" Tao Sheng had a smile on his face, looked at him and said: "I heard that the Yang family's soap business is doing well, but there have been some problems recently, so the government has closed the shop, what does Li Jian think about this matter?" ”

"A new soap in Fucheng? I did use it, and it was not bad. Li Qianxin said Sure enough, your Tao Sheng's fox tail is finally exposed!

"Oh?" Tao Sheng saw that he was looking at him left and right, and did not answer directly, the smile on his face couldn't help but deepen a little, and he squinted his eyes and smiled: "As far as Benxian knows, ------this thing seems to be from Li Jian's handwriting?" ”

"Don't be humiliated!" Li Qian's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at him with a 'suffocated' expression and said, "Shang Jia is the last to say, how can such a strange skill come from the hands of a scholar like Li Qian?" ”

Feign! You pretend to me again!

Tao Sheng was a little annoyed, this kid is also cunning, and if he continues to talk to him like this, it is estimated that he will not be able to talk about a result after dark. At that moment, he had to give up this tactful way of playing Tai Chi, and went straight to the point: "Ben Xian means that in the current situation of the Yang family, Ben Xian can help a little, but it's just ------"

Li Qian was overjoyed when he heard this: "Is this true? ”

"Self is not a fake ------" Tao Sheng was also a little surprised for a while about his sudden eager attitude, and always felt that this kid would dig a big pit like that day, just waiting for himself to jump in!

"That's how good it is!" Li Qian immediately said: "Then please Daxian give an order quickly, if you can reopen as soon as possible, you will be able to make more money------ "Said and patted his chest as if assuring: "Daxian rest assured, the Yang family will be grateful afterwards!" ”

Tao Shengxin said that you are teasing me?

Afterwards, there will be a heavy thank you for this kind of empty check, and you dare to show it in front of me? In the end, it's impossible to say how 'heavy' your gratitude will be.

"Ahem------ I'm afraid I didn't understand what I meant."

"Understood, understood!" Li Qian nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "I understand what Daxian means!" As he spoke, he stretched out three fingers and gestured face to face.

"What does Daxian think?"

"Three ------" Tao Sheng's pupils suddenly dilated, and he looked at Li Qian with a little excitement, then turned his gaze to scan the room again, and finally lowered his voice and said, "Three thousand taels?" ”

"Huh?" Li Qian looked at him in a daze, glared at a pair of eyes very exaggeratedly and said, "Daxian is joking, right?" Three thousand taels? It's not enough to sell me! ”

Tao Sheng understood in an instant.

He's calling Hanako!

Although three hundred taels is not a small amount, it is too shabby for a provincial magistrate and a chief official like himself, right?

It is an ordinary litigation case, as long as it is submitted to you, the starting price is at least five hundred taels! Otherwise, don't think that the suspect involved in the case can finally walk out unscathed------ it doesn't exist.

In fact, according to his original plan, he tried to bluff Li Qian by making a posture that wanted to make the case an iron case, forcing him to hand over the soap formula, but the development of things was obviously somewhat unexpected------ this excessively young new science and technology scholar actually had the ability to prove his innocence.

In this way, it is naturally not good for him to frame him indiscriminately, otherwise once the case reaches heaven, it is difficult to say who the saint will trust more, and the backer of the court may not be able to protect himself.

In fact, Tao Sheng has always been very clear in his heart that if it weren't for the fact that the Zhao family had long ago put the hat of "suppressing the good as a cheap and raping the young girl", which has always been the most hated by the Son of Heaven, on Li Qian's head, he would not have been able to move this courtier who was in the emperor's heart at all.

But even so, he still didn't dare to easily confirm Li Qian's charges. If the case is brought to the Beijing Division Criminal Department for retrial in the future, and then the other party overturns the case, then the fun will be great.

Frankly speaking, Tao Sheng didn't dare to gamble.

The daily progress of the Yang family's soap business did make him a little red-eyed, but in the end, it was just a game set up by the Zhao family, which made him find a loophole that could be exploited. Therefore, as soon as he saw that the situation was passive, he chose to stop and take a step back------ if Li Qian was interested.

Obviously, Li Qian is very uninteresting.

Tao Sheng's concession was actually to get a share of the profits from the soap business, but the other party only planned to simply stuff himself with a sum of silver, so he wanted to pass the test safely, which was really a bit whimsical.

Three thousand taels of silver is not a lot, but for Tao Sheng, it is indeed not a large amount, but if Li Qian can be a little happier and more generous, it is not impossible to consider letting the Yang family settle the matter with five thousand taels.

"You have two paths!"

The God of Wealth finally changed his face again, he stretched out two fingers and gestured, and said with a gloomy face: "Either let the Yang family pay 5,000 taels to settle this matter, or ------ give 20% of the profits, and there is no other way!" ”

Li Qian saw that he had completely lost his temperance now, and as a provincial platform, he dared to ask for a bribe from himself in person, and he couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart------ why didn't he have a voice recorder at this time?

You Tao Sheng thought it was quite beautiful, you were the one who framed you, and in the end, you were the one who wanted to help settle things! A casual order is enough to solve all the problems, and you are embarrassed to open your mouth with my lion here, why don't you go and rob it openly?

Since everyone has made their words clear, Li Qian naturally can't avoid answering anymore, so he replied coldly at the moment: "The words of the cheap envoy are inevitably a little taken for granted, right?" ”

The Lian Envoy was originally a nickname for the Inspector, but such a title is obviously full of irony when used at the moment. Tao Sheng's eyes froze, squinted slightly, and looked at him coldly: "What is the opinion of the review?" ”

"I believe that the Yang family has the ability to deal with this matter, so I won't bother with it!"

Li Qian wanted to kindly tell him that what he had just compared with his finger was not three hundred taels, but thirty taels------ and he measured it in his heart, but in the end, he was still worried that it would anger this powerful envoy, so he had to dispel such thoughts.

Tao Sheng flicked the sleeves of his robe when he saw his words fall, turned to leave, and the anger in his heart can be imagined.

"Li Qian! Are you the Yamen a place where you can come and go when you want? ”

"I don't understand what my lord is saying." Li Qian paused, turned around and smiled: "Is it difficult, this is not according to the Inspectorate or Shura Hell?" ”

"You are now under suspicion, this case has not yet been concluded, did this constitution say to let you go?" Tao Sheng sneered.

"I'm innocent, even if I'm framed right now, the incorruptible envoy has no right to detain me, right?" Li Qian pushed back his words lightly, and added: "Don't forget, my lord, I, Li Qian, am not only a Jinshi of the current science and technology, but also have to pass a piece of paper from the Hanlin Academy!" ”

"So what?" Tao Sheng is already a king at this moment, and he is determined to suppress his arrogance, and he replied: "The Son of Heaven has committed the same crime as the common people, and this constitution has always paid attention to the word justice in handling cases, why do you have to look at the identity of the criminal?" ”

"Tao Sheng!"

Li Qian was really angry this time, and he protested angrily: "You'd better make it clear to me, I, Li, am not a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others, nor is it a county that can let you be imprisoned arbitrarily!" My surname is Li, not Ling! ”

Syllable!

Tao Sheng stood up and sneered: "Then I want to see how you get out of this yamen today!" ”

There was a sudden commotion behind him, and as soon as Li Qian turned around, he found that the gate was already surrounded by a group of fierce and vicious servants.

"Heh, Lian makes such a big deal!"

"I've reviewed it."

"How are you doing?"

"I'm going to take you into custody pending trial."

"------" Li Qian stopped speaking, and secretly measured in his heart, since the situation has developed to such a point, should he reveal his secret purpose?

Give him Tao Sheng another splashing dog guts, and he can't move himself, a person who is the emperor and secretly handles cases. It's just that in this way, Song Zhong will be exposed in advance, and once the investigation is blocked in the future, it is difficult to say that he will not run to Zhu Baba to sue himself------

Looking at the future, or taking care of the present, Li Qian was a little undecided for a while.

However, what he knows in his heart is that once he is in prison, the situation will be uncontrollable, and God knows how Tao Sheng will join forces with the Zhao family outside to confirm his guilt through various dirty means, and finally take away the soap formula.

In contrast, Li Qian is actually more worried that they will expand the scope of the attack and implicate the entire Li family and all the people related to him in Hangzhou Mansion.

Forget it, the bridge is naturally straight from the bridge to the bridge, and the future will be talked about in the future, but the current dilemma must be solved immediately, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

After making up his mind, Li Qian was about to reach into his arms and take out the secret decree, but there was a voice from an errand officer behind him.

"Qi Daxian, Chen Si Li asks to see." Si Li is another name for Tuiguan.

When Tao Sheng heard this, his eyes swept over Li Qian's face suspiciously, and then he went straight out. As for what to do with Li Qian, who was left in the signing room, he did not give an explanation for the time being.
