"Oh, it's rare that a few adults are free today, so I would like to give you a drink. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info if it weren't for a few adults in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there would be no prosperity now. Zhang Ru raised his glass with a smile.

On the surface, this is an ordinary banquet, only Wu Shouai and the others who are deeply involved in it know, this is just the calm before the storm.

The sweet wine became extremely bitter after the mouth, and a Hongmen banquet was placed on the bright side, and none of the three of them thought that this wine could be drunk to the fullest.

I don't know if Guan Erye had no bottom in his heart when he went to the meeting alone, anyway, a few of them have no bottom in their hearts now.

A few giants who didn't speak made Zhang Ru completely open the conversation, from the scenery of Hangzhou to the customs of the south of the Yangtze River, Dingguo Gong chattered endlessly like a woman's family.

At this point, Wu Shouwei knew that he could no longer deal with Zhang Ru, so he interrupted Zhang Ru's words very impolitely: "Grandpa's intentions, the lower officials now understand more or less about it." The day before yesterday, someone accused Xia Guan of buying murder, and Xia Guan was speechless. It is said that there is no good banquet, and the lower officials of this wine are not comfortable drinking, so they will not drink it.

If the grandfather can come up with conclusive evidence, the lower official will be killed, and if the grandfather really can't produce evidence, the lower official will have to jump under the nose of the grandfather for a few days. ”

Zu Yitao didn't have time to stop the impulsive Wu Shouaoi, since people had already said this, no matter how much he stopped it, there was no objection at all, so he simply had Wu Shouai to continue the topic.

Zhang Ru smiled lightly: "Lord Wu is quick to talk, so don't worry!" My father-in-law won't go around the bend with you, and call Lord Wu over today, which is to show the bad luck of looking for you Lord Wu.

Don't tell my father-in-law that the evidence is not evidence or anything like that, if there is evidence, my father-in-law is not looking for you to drink.

I called you over today just to ask you in front of the other two adults why you went back on your word. The two of us had a gentleman's appointment, and said that we would bring Xu Huaiyuan and his party to justice, why did Lord Wu become a villain who retorted? ”

Wu Shou'e's face did not change color, and his eyes did not squint: "Xia Guan doesn't remember any gentleman's appointment with his grandfather, and his grandfather wants to check this Jiangnan officialdom, and Xia Guan has no opinion."

If the lower officials are greedy, they are greedy, and there is no such thing as admitting guilt or not admitting guilt.

The lower officials are not stupid, do they have to explain the unsightly things to others clearly if they are corrupt?

The grandfather wants to take down the official, and the lower official is waiting, and there is no need to involve innocent people. ”

Zhang Ru said lightly: "Lord Wu still seems to be quite nervous!" I don't know if Lord Wu is afraid of being involved in the people behind him? Or are you afraid of causing unnecessary trouble to your mentor?

If it is the former, there is no need for Lord Wu to worry at all, as long as Lord Wu does not say anything, it will not be possible to find out in a day or two if the prince wants to investigate.

If it's the latter, then Lord Wu doesn't have to worry about it, as far as I know, Liu Jian and Liu Ge are not an insatiable person, and every one of his incomes is well documented.

Not to mention, in order to open the sea ban, my father-in-law directly sent 100,000 taels of silver tickets to Lord Liu.

Of course, this is not a bribe, but a gift from a friend.

Your situation can also be classified as a gift from a friend, and my father-in-law will not blame you for embezzling money. At least, you're doing well.

Since my father asked you to come over, I just want to ask, what happened when Ouyang Dehou said that you were still running a salt and iron business when you were fine? ”

Wu Shou's heart guard was loosened as soon as he was tight, and he chuckled in his heart, and secretly said badly: It's coming!

Zhang Ru continued: "The sale of illicit salt is not big, but it is not small. Although salt has always been operated by the imperial court, you are also a member of the imperial court, and this issue is not intended to be investigated in depth.

What my father wants to ask is, is it as Ouyang Dehou said, you are secretly operating private railways! ”

Wu Shou'ai sweats like rain!

Whether you really run a private iron business, you don't need to ask Zhang Ru, you only need to see the account book, and it will be clear at a glance.

Such an account book also has a copy in the secret compartment of his study.

Private salt and private iron are not the same concept.

Selling illicit salt is nothing more than selling illicit iron for money, and the nature of selling illicit iron is different.

The weapons of this era are iron, so in this way, they can be involved in rebellion.

Zhang Ru put his face in front of Wu Shouhui: "Lord Wu, you say, can you afford this crime of selling smuggled iron?" ”

At this time, not only Wu Shouao, but even Zu Yitao's face changed.

He is an envoy of the procurator, and the political envoy is a co-operative to sell smuggled iron, and if he is not responsible, he will collapse that day.

Zhang Ru said bluntly: "I will give you two ways to go now, one is to sit here and wait for the account book to be delivered, and when the time comes, Lao Tzu has all the evidence and material evidence, and you can ask for the king's order flag to cut you, and then cut your family." After these things were done, Lao Tzu slowly consumed and continued to investigate!

The other is that you tell the mastermind behind the scenes in front of the other two adults, whether it is Xu Huaiyuan or Xu Li, my father can afford it. ”

Wu Shouwei's whole body was soaked in sweat, and his mind was now a mess, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

His gaze glanced at Zu Yitao and Tu Mi from time to time, as if he hoped that these two people could say a word or two for him for the sake of their colleagues for many years.

As everyone knows, these two people were also frightened by Zhang Ru's words, once the hat of selling smuggled iron was buttoned to their heads, no matter whether they could detain the hat or not, they would have to be stripped of a layer of skin.

In fact, the two of them also stared at Wu Shouai a little nervously, they were afraid that Wu Shouwei would not be able to hold the last line of defense.

Zhang Ru looked at the three of them for a long time, and what he liked the most was to watch others eat deflated.

Maybe he thought of his family, or maybe he felt that he should be able to fight for a glimmer of life, Wu Shouwei suddenly stopped looking at the reactions of the other two, and said directly to Zhang Ru: "Grandpa, did you say that the lower official said that the grandfather can guarantee the safety of the lower official's family?" ”

Zhang Ru Zhengse said: "Lord Wu, please don't underestimate the ability of Jinyiwei, and don't underestimate the determination of this prince to rectify the officialdom in Jiangnan. ”

Zu Yitao suddenly stood up and shouted: "Wu Shouao! ”

Zhang Ru then shouted: "Zu Yitao! You shut up Lao Tzu first! ”

With Zhang Ru's loud shout, the people outside rushed in, everyone put their hands on the hilt of the knife, as long as Zhang Ru gave an order, they could kill immediately.

Wu Shouwei said: "Okay, the lower official will explain everything, I just hope that the grandfather can give the lower official's family a way to live!" The mastermind behind this scene..."(To be continued.) )
