Chapter Eighty-Eight: Capture in One Fell Swoop (2)
"Tenth Master, you have worked hard, the slave toasts you, I wish you a cup of success."
"Tenth master, this Shandong disaster, if it weren't for your support, I really don't know what it would be, you have worked hard, the slave has no side, just a glass of water and wine, talk about your heart, the slave will do it first as a respect, you are free."
"Ten masters, you are the backbone of the minions, where you point, the minions will rush, if you don't say it, the minions will give you a drink!"
……
At the same time that Hongqing went to visit Kong Tongru, a feast was being carried out in the top floor of the most prestigious restaurant in Jining City, Yingxian Tower.
"Adult ......"
Everyone was drinking freely, but they saw a strong man in plain clothes hurrying in from outside the box, walked quickly to Du Moliang's side, called softly, and then whispered to his ear.
"Huh?"
The tenth master was drinking on his head, and he was quite displeased by this scene, so he put the wine glass in his hand on the table and snorted impatiently.
"Ah, Tenth Master, here's the thing, the minions down there came to report, saying that Hongqing's kid went to Kong Tongru's official office, and I don't know what the trouble is."
Seeing that the tenth master was unhappy, Du Moliang didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly waved his hand to retreat the subordinate who came to report the news, and then bowed down and reported carefully.
"Oh? Did the guy go alone? ”
The tenth master has suffered losses under Hongqing's hands several times, but he is very vigilant against Hongqing, this time he heard Du Moliang say this, but he couldn't care about feigning anger, raised his eyebrows, and hurriedly asked a question.
"If you go back to the tenth master, it is said that you went with a local shopkeeper of the 'Qilin Firm', maybe you want to ask Confucius for some cheapness."
As soon as he heard the Tenth Master's question, Du Moliang didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly explained it.
"Hey, that's possible, that bastard kid has already been in the eyes of his grandmother."
How popular Hongqing's business name is, the tenth master is very clear, not to mention the side, just the Sichuan that he himself has contracted, it has only been more than half a year, and it has already made a net profit of more than 10,000 taels of silver, of course, opening up various joints has also taken out a lot, but the tenth master is no stranger to business, and he heard Du Moliang explain it at this time, so he didn't care much about it.
"That's it, it's just that Kong Zhizhou is the most hypocritical, that guy goes, maybe he will run into a nose of ash, ha, then the fun will be a big deal."
Kong Tongru can be described as a maverick among the officials in Shandong, and has always regarded himself as high, and several people present looked at him not very pleasing to the eye.
"Hahaha...... no matter what the ball is, come, continue to drink, I'm happy today, if you don't get drunk, you won't go home!"
The tenth master has no good impression of Hongqing, and he can hear that Hongqing has hit a wall, so he has won the tenth master, this laugh will rise, and it will be extraordinarily happy, and it will immediately attract Gong, Du and others to laugh together, just like that, an extremely important news was covered up between everyone's laughter......
On April 29th, it was sunny, perhaps because of the hard work of the two Qincha elder brothers, it rained in the middle of the night, and it had stopped in the early morning, the sun rose in the east, the colorful glow was ten thousand roads, the air was fresh and refreshing, the breeze was light, the colorful flags were fluttering, and the officials and people who came to see them off from various provinces were neatly arranged on the dock under the leadership of Governor A Jintai, waiting for the appearance of the two Qincha elder brothers.
"Xiaguan Shandong Governor A Jintai knocks to see Lord Qincha!"
When the hour was right, the drum and trumpet sounded, three or ten or two Qincha brothers walked out of the post station not far from the wharf side by side, and did not take the car, so they strode towards the wharf.
"It's all flat."
The mission of disaster relief has been completed, and the major event has been regarded as more than half, and the third master's mood is obviously very good, and the voice is obviously more warm than usual.
"Thank you, Lord Wang!"
But after sending away the two elder brothers, the officials could be considered to be able to breathe a sigh of relief, and Xie En's voice was full of ease and happiness, the voice was loud and uniform, and the etiquette was extraordinarily thoughtful.
"My lord, how is the case of the burning of the granary?"
The officials were obviously happy earlier, and before everyone could stand firmly, they saw that the third master's eyes flashed, and he stared at A Jintai's body with great excitement, and asked nonchalantly.
"This ......"
As soon as he heard the third master ask about this matter coldly, A Jintai couldn't help but be stunned on the spot - at the beginning, the third master asked him to talk to Du Moliang, but after the explanation, the third master didn't ask about it once, and there was no more instructions, so that A Jintai didn't know how to operate, and after a few lip-to-mouth lawsuits with Du Moliang, he didn't ask much more.
"Master Du, since this matter is undertaken by you, it is up to you to answer it."
The third master did not embarrass Ah Jintai any more, but set his eyes on Du Moliang, who was a little flustered, and asked calmly.
"Third brother, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, according to the laws of the imperial court, we are only responsible for disaster relief, and these chores are still handled by the local government, otherwise, the emperor is afraid that he will not be able to explain it, what do you say."
Lao Shi seems to be rude, but he is not stupid, seeing that the situation is not right, he hurriedly stood up from the side, and unceremoniously carried the big signboard of the old man Kangxi, intending to use it to subdue the third master.
"This matter is the brother's own measure, the tenth brother should not worry, and watch from the side."
The third master has a secret purpose, and has the grasp of making a contribution in one fell swoop, and he is very confident, how can he be frightened by Lao Shi, but he is not in a hurry to show his hole cards, but waved his hand indifferently, took out the positive and bad style, and forcibly blocked Lao Shi's mouth.
"Humph!"
Lao Shi still wanted to say more, but as soon as he saw that the third master had turned his head around, he made it clear that he would not pay attention to his words, and the anger in his heart surged wildly, and his face twitched wildly as if he was going to say something more, but at the end, he still didn't have the courage to say that he would come out, not that he was really afraid of the third master, but that he was worried that the third master had a secret purpose - in order to spy on the reality of the third master, the old ten did not let the next person and other parties tempt him, but the third master did not leak, although the tenth master was suspicious, but he could not confirm it, Seeing that the third master was so arrogant at this time, Lao Shi's heart was really a little weak, so he just snorted coldly and closed his mouth.
"Back to the prince's words, this matter is still under investigation, it is a confidential record, please forgive the official for inconvenient comments."
Du Moliang originally expected the Tenth Master to cover himself up, but seeing that although the Tenth Master's face was as black as the bottom of the pot, he still didn't come out again when he reached the bottom, and his already empty heart couldn't help but be a little more empty, but he didn't want to weaken his own momentum, so he groaned perfunctory.
"Inconvenience? What's inconvenient, hey, this king really wants to ask me to understand, does Lord Du want to resist and disobey the order, huh? ”
The third master's days for the rest of the month are really tight, the disaster relief is extremely complicated, not to mention the hard work, but also have to remember the progress of the Rufu case, the whole person is tired in a big circle, now that all the deployments are ready, it is also the turn of the third master to raise his eyebrows and exclaim, and how can Du Moliang be allowed to prevaricate, this is unceremoniously forced a sentence.
"This ......, if the prince wants to ask the case, he must ask for a decree and come again, otherwise, please forgive the officials for their difficulty in obeying their orders."
Seeing that the third master was so tough, Du Moliang was really a little unbearable, and the sweat on his forehead couldn't stop flowing down, but there was still a trace of luck in his heart, and after a little hesitation, he still pushed back the third master's words in an extremely tough tone.
"Okay, very good, do you want a will, this king will show you the holy will."
Seeing that Du Moliang still dared to be strong at this time, the third master's pupils flashed wildly, squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, and then shook his hand, took out a yellow silk masked holy decree from the wide sleeves, and raised it high above his head.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said......"
Facing the crowd kneeling on the ground, the third master did not rush to read out the holy decree, but looked at the flustered tenth master, Gong and Du with relief, and then unhurriedly spread out the holy decree, and announced it one by one.
"Lord Du, if you want a will, this king will announce it to you, and now this king has the right to ask questions, huh?"
After announcing the will, the third master stood proud, even if everyone thanked him, the third master did not call up, just let everyone kneel on the ground, lean over slightly, and looked Du Mo up and down with interest After a good while, he asked in a gloomy tone.
"King, king, the prince forgives the sin, the lower, the lower officials are not, I don't know why, and please ask the prince Haihan to be one."
In the face of the strength of the third master, Du Moliang's psychology is already on the verge of collapse, but it is a matter of his life, before he sees the Yellow River, he will definitely not give up, in addition to admitting that he is unknown, he is very tight in confession.
"Isn't it sinful that those who don't know, and this king doesn't blame you, anyway, according to what you have checked, where are the more than 30,000 stone grains in the burned granary, huh?"
The water dog needs to be beaten, not pitied! This truth, the third master has a lot of knowledge in his heart, and he is too lazy to go around in circles with Du Moliang, so he asks the core directly.
"Ah, this ......"
Du Moliang obviously didn't expect the third master to ask so directly, and his heart was shocked, and he didn't know what to say for a while......
