It turned out that Lao Wang needed the joint name of the students.
Yuan Zhixin said without hesitation: "Lord Wang, don't worry, the joint performance of our Tai students has never been ignored, and we will do our best to help." ”
"Okay, that's good."
But the conversation between the two was heard word for word by Li Tian, who was hiding outside the house.
"Li Tian, what are you doing here?" Another student, Yang Ningzhen, walked over and asked.
"No, nothing." Li Tian said and left in a hurry.
Lao Yu, who received the news, sent an urgent letter to Wang Shi with an urgent letter of eight hundred miles.
The letter asked Wang Shi why he had let things happen like this. And because of Wang Shi, everyone was implicated. Lao Yu had already asked Lao Wang to drive away the benevolent rails, but Lao Wang just didn't listen. The whole incident has already involved Tai Student, Wang Shichong and the supervising imperial history, and so on. The whole letter was strongly worded, and scolded Lao Wang for being bloody.
At the end of the letter, it was said that Lao Yu had destroyed all the relevant transaction documents, but it was difficult to cover up this matter by sending people from the Chamber of Commerce to various small countries, and asked Lao Wang to find a scapegoat for this matter.
In the building, Manager Yu was pouring wine for Jiang Aniu and said, "Aniu, I've worked hard for you this time, drink it." ”
"Thank you, Lord Steward."
"As the saying goes, people can't look good, it seems to be true, I misjudged you, Liu Zhengze is the problem, not you."
"Yes, the Steward is right."
"Well, how could he abandon such a faithful and reliable friend as you? He's so ruthless. ”
"Please don't mention him, I've forgotten about him." Ah Niu said categorically.
"After I go back, I will speak for you in front of Lord Wang, and try to make you the deputy manager."
"Really?" Ah Niu had a hint of joy.
"Of course, we're all in the same boat. As long as you work hard, you will soon be promoted to deputy director. Lao Yu encouraged.
"Ah, Lord Steward, thank you, thank you so much. As long as I am given the opportunity, I will work hard for the Chamber of Commerce. ”
Lao Yu had a smug smile on his face.
In the home of Yuan Zhixin, Ren Rail and Zhixin are discussing.
"Do you have to join forces?" Ren Rail asked.
"Well, it's hard to impeach them, so we have to do this to our students, otherwise we won't be able to expose them."
"Zhixin, will there be trouble?"
"Don't worry, it won't."
"Although this battle is not easy to fight, but we have a great chance of winning, the emperor is about to rectify the corrupt atmosphere of the Manchu officials, to protect the innocent people, the court needs to be rectified, but I don't know if it will be difficult to return."
"Thank you, Naoshin, if there's anything I need to do, just ......."
"You've done a lot. If it weren't for you, how would we have started this investigation and found these big worms? ”
Ah Niu followed Lao Yu, drove the grain truck, and happily returned to the Luoyang palace to resume his life.
In the palace, Wang Shi was inviting Ren Rail to taste tea.
"The best Jiangnan spring tea, you taste it, how does it taste?"
"Lord Wang."
"Ah, you saved me again."
"What does this mean, sir?"
"If I say something that offends you, don't mind."
Lao Yu came outside the house and said, "Lord Wang, I'm younger, I'm back." ”
Lao Wang opened the door of the house, went out to see Lao Yu, and said, "How about the trip to Fengqiu?" ”
"Lord Wang, the task has been successfully completed."
"Successfully completed the mission? You dare to say it, it's all you kid, and you almost finished Lao Tzu. If it hadn't been for the fact that Zhengzheng had come back and told me about your conspiracy, I would have been kept in the dark until now. Wang Shi said indignantly.
"Lord Wang, how can it be a conspiracy? We're just doing what you command. ”
"Shut up, you slut still has to quibble." Wang Shi shouted.
"What happened? Liu Zhengze: What did you say to Lord Wang? Ah Niu asked.
"Lord Wang, what do you mean by that?" Ren Rail also asked puzzled.
"You told me that they were stealing food from innocent people."
"Lord Wang, I don't know what Liu Zhengze said, but there must be a misunderstanding here." Ah Niu said busily.
"Bastard, how can you, how can you embezzle the tribute to the saint, do you think you can hide it from me?"
Hearing Wang Shi say this, Lao Yu and Ah Niu were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.
Wang Shi waved his hand impatiently, and a team of heavily armed elite soldiers rushed out and surrounded Lao Yu and Ah Niu.
The officer of the team led by Sui Bing said: "Sinners Yu Yu, Jiang Aniu, you have been arrested. ”
"What's the matter, I didn't do anything wrong, I'm not a sinner, let go, let go of me, wronged!" Ah Niu shouted loudly.
Zhang Zhengbin also shouted on the side: "Lord Wang, Lord Wang, Ah Niu will not sin." ”
Ren Liang was a little overwhelmed by the sudden scene, and he hurriedly stepped forward to stop the team leader and said, "Wait, I think you are mistaken, they are innocent." ”
"Get out of the way, if it's innocent, we'll find out." The team officer shouted, and pulled away from the benevolent track.
Lao Yu and Ah Niu were escorted away.
Ren Liang returned to Lao Wang's side and asked, "Lord Wang, what the hell is going on?" ”
"What's going on, just like you told me, they arbitrarily lowered the price of the tribute grain purchased from Fengqiu, filled their own pockets, and profited from it."
"But isn't it all done as you asked?"
"I just let them collect tribute grain, and I didn't let them lower the price and fill their pockets." Wang Shi said impassionedly.
"Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"I don't know what you mean by that, but I'm a victim! They have tarnished the reputation of my chamber of commerce. ”
"Do you think you'll be fine if you let them carry the black pot? I won't let you succeed, and I'll reveal the truth. ”
"Of course, what you want to do, that's completely your freedom. But don't forget, when you had nowhere to go in Luoyang City, who took you in, and when you wanted to learn martial arts, who reduced your workload. Wang Shiman didn't care about the authenticity.
"Hmph, I won't abolish justice because of personal feelings, and I will naturally repay your personal feelings in other ways." After Ren Liang finished speaking, he left indignantly.
In order to let Lao Yu and Ah Niu confess, the officials in the Luoyang Taishou Yamen had already used clamping sticks on the two of them.
Unexpectedly, the pampered old Yu and the treacherous Ah Niu actually gritted their teeth and did not confess.
"Bastards, don't confess quickly, so as not to suffer from flesh and skin again." Luoyang Taishou Feng Ke was shocked.
"Wronged, we just do what Lord Wang asks." The dying old Yu Dao.
"What kind of place do you think this is, and you dare to quibble! Are you dying? ”
"No, my lord, we're telling the truth." Ah Niu said.
"Untouchables, if you still refuse to admit your guilt, what are you waiting for, continue to torture until they confess, and if the stick does not work, use a needle, a flail, or a burner."
"Yes, sir."
"Help! Wronged! Lao Yu and Ah Niu shouted so loudly that their voices were hoarse, and they had no air in and out, and finally passed out.
