Listening to Chen Fangfang's words, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that he had something to do with the salt merchants. It seems that there is something unrecognizable here! Nodding slowly, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said in a deep voice: "You speak slowly, tell everything again!" ”

"Yes, Childe!" Chen Fangfang gently helped him, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said softly: "My father, Ren Bonian, is a well-known good person in Yangzhou City, and my sister and I were adopted by my father. I was just eight years old that year, my sister was only three years old, and there was a big flood in my hometown. Both parents died at that time, and it was my father who adopted us. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was slightly stunned, thinking that he was the biological father of the two sisters, but he didn't expect to be adopted. A person who can adopt orphans, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is willing to believe in his heart that he is a good person. However, there are always exceptions, and there are not many good businessmen in this era.

Nodding slowly, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said softly, "You go on!" ”

"Yes, Childe! Chen Fangfang nodded slowly, trying not to tremble in her voice, and said: "My father's ancestor was a salt merchant in Yangzhou, and my family has an ancestral 50,000 salt leads, which is the root of my father's departure from home. Although it is not rich in this Yangzhou city, it is also worry-free. Three months ago, I took my sister to the temple fair, and if we hadn't gone to my father, maybe I wouldn't have had this incident. Saying this, Chen Fangfang's face was full of resentment, and there was anger in her eyes.

Yuan Keli on the side sighed softly, red face and trouble, it has been like this since ancient times! It's not a good thing for a girl to be too pretty.

"That day we met the son of Li Chang, a big salt merchant in the city, who was a merchant, and his father's salt was in charge of the Li family. After that meeting, the son of the Li family came up to talk to me, but was blocked by the family. Three days later, the Li family sent someone to propose marriage, but it was just to be the fifth concubine for the eldest son of the Li family. Chen Fangfang lowered her head, and her eyes were red.

sighed in his heart, although the Emperor of the Apocalypse felt that the plot was a bit cliché, but such things were too common in this era. However, I originally thought that it should be an official eunuch who bullied men and women, but now it is actually a salt merchant, which is really unexpected.

"Shameless! The family of a mere businessman should be punished for acting like this! The Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't say anything, but Yuan Keli on the side stood up and scolded loudly. Maybe because he was so excited, his beard was puffed out.

Glancing at Yuan Keli, Chen Fangfang's face was full of astonishment, if it was the Emperor of the Apocalypse who lost his temper, he would not feel strange. After all, the Emperor of the Apocalypse looks like a rich boy who has never experienced the world, and it is nothing to say these things. Yuan Keli looked like an old man who had experienced vicissitudes of life, how could he make such a fuss!

Smiling awkwardly, the Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't pay attention to Yuan Keli, and said to Chen Fangfang on the side: "You go on!" ”

"Yes, Childe!" Nodding slightly, Chen Fangfang continued: "Naturally, my father would not agree to such a marriage, so he naturally refused. Although he was a little worried, nothing happened, and my father was relieved. A month later, a good friend of my father's came up to me and made an appointment to go with my father to make salt. The family's 50,000 salt sources are still 20,000 yuan short this year, and my father didn't think there was anything, so he went together. However, half a month later, my father was found to be selling smuggled salt and was arrested and taken to prison. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse glanced at Yuan Keli, his face was solemn, and the matter was already very clear. The crime of selling smuggled salt is not small, and it may be difficult for Ren Bonian to come out if he goes in like this.

Later, the house was ransacked, and my father, mother, and brother were all imprisoned. The government said that we were not from the Ren family, so we escaped. My sister and I are going to Nanjing to file a lawsuit, even if it is to beat the drum, and we have to revoke our father's grievances. But before we could do it, we were caught, and I was sold to the courtyard. Chen Fangfang couldn't say any more when she said this, lowered her head, and kept wiping the tears on her face.

Glancing back at the twin sisters behind him, the Emperor of the Apocalypse beckoned to them and said, "You send Miss Chen to rest!" He turned his head to Chen Fangfang and said, "You go and rest first!" Since we have encountered this matter, we will definitely take care of it! ”

Hearing what the Emperor of the Apocalypse said, Chen Fangfang was about to kneel down for the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and the pear blossom said with rain: "If you can save your father, the little girl is willing to make cattle and horses for her son, and repay her son's great kindness!" ”

"Alright, let's go and rest first! Let's talk about what to do! Wen Yan comforted Chen Fangfang a few words, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse let Chen Fangfang go upstairs.

There were only three Emperor of the Apocalypse left in the hall, and the expressions on the faces of the three of them were very serious, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse had a bit of slaughter in his eyes.

"These salt merchants are really lawless, manipulate the salt tax, collude with local officials, and make the good Jiangnan into a miasma. Selling smuggled salt and mining, there is nothing this person does not dare to do! They have now become moths of the country, to the point where they cannot but be political! The Emperor of the Apocalypse had a compelling glint in his eyes and slowly sat down in his chair.

Dang Han sat quietly on the side, Jin Yiwei knew something about the salt merchants, but they could only pretend not to know. Behind the salt merchants is the officialdom of the entire south of the Yangtze River, and even the magnates of Nanjing, the palace and the Guogong Mansion are probably involved. Unless the Emperor of the Apocalypse made up his mind, it would be difficult to do anything to them!

"Your Majesty, the salt merchant has indeed reached the point where he has to move, but we are outside the microservice, and it will be very troublesome to do things. We need a legitimate identity, and besides, the emperor can't reveal his identity yet. I'm afraid things are a little difficult to do! Yuan Keli looked at the Emperor of the Apocalypse, his face was unusually solemn, he didn't have a good impression of the salt merchants, but it was probably not so easy to really move.

Smiling meaningfully, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said playfully: "There is nothing that cannot be done, as long as you really want to do it!" ”

Glancing at the party cold on the side, Yuan Keli was a little unsure, but the Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't mean to say it, and Yuan Keli was naturally embarrassed to ask.

"Alright, let's all go and rest! We'll go to the prison early tomorrow morning to see Ren Bonian, I'm a little interested in this person. ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse and the others went to rest, but in a manor outside Yangzhou City, the eldest prince of the Li Mansion was furious. Li Gongzi's name is Li Bo, and he was a person in Yangzhou last year, but he failed when he was admitted to the Jinshi. Anyone who understands knows that this person may not be very glorious.

Li Gongzi, who was gentle and elegant, had a very hideous face at this time, kicked down the middle-aged man on the side, and said loudly: "What are you eating, it's all rice buckets!" ”

"Childe, the old bustard of Nali Chūn Courtyard has already said that she paid for that woman. This redemption is also what you and I want, since the son wants to pay first, it's too late to say this! With a little fear on his face, the middle-aged man slowly stood up and looked at Li Bo timidly, for fear that he would kick himself down.

picked up the tea bowl on the table and slammed it on the ground, Li Bo's eyes were unusually angry, and he gasped: "Okay! An old bustard dares to bully his son, and he really treats himself as a character. In this Yangzhou city, no one who offends me Li Bo will end well! ”

Standing to the side with a cower, the middle-aged man said in a trembling voice: "Childe, an old bustard naturally doesn't dare to offend Childe, but the people behind the courtyard are different. ”

"What's different? When I sold that little beauty, my son confessed, and told me after she finished training, and my son spent money to buy it! I promised to do it well, but now I actually do such a thing, I really didn't take this son in my eyes, I can't swallow this breath! Li Bo glared at the middle-aged man fiercely, but his tone of voice was much softer, and he also knew that what the middle-aged man said was true.

Li Bo knows very well in his heart that although his family has money, his status is always worse. If it weren't for my father giving people money, I'm afraid my family would have been swallowed up a long time ago. However, Li Bo is not presumptuous, and he is also very clear about the strength of his own family.

I'm afraid it's not so easy to want Lichūn Yuan to be soft, there is a face problem involved, if you are soft to yourself, then the one behind Lichūn Yuan doesn't have to mix in Yangzhou City!

Slowly sat down on the chair, Li Bo frowned and kept pondering, it was useless to say anything from the side of the Li Chūn Temple, the main thing now was who robbed the little beauty. Glancing at the middle-aged man, Li Bo said in a deep voice: "Go and let people check, who are those people, you must find out!" ”

"Childe, what are those people doing?" The middle-aged man asked Ai Ai, in his opinion, the woman was taken back, and it was already a confinement for others, and it was probably not so easy to snatch it back.

"You know! Now Ren Bonian's affairs have not been understood, if something goes wrong at this time, things will be in trouble! Don't go yet! Glaring at the middle-aged man fiercely, Li Bo scolded loudly.

Frowning and pondering, Li Bo kept thinking about it, and suddenly a voice came to mind outside, saying, "It's not bad!" If you just look in front of you, you will eat and wait for death! ”

Standing up abruptly and standing aside obediently, Li Bo said in a deep voice: "Dad! ”

Gently pushing open the door, a man in his fifties walked in, wearing a silk gown, with his hands behind his back, looking at Li Bo with a smile. Walked to the main seat and sat down, and said to Li Bo on the side: "Sit down!" How many times have I told you, be steady in case of trouble, and see what you become! ”

"The child is out of shape, please punish Daddy!" Li Bo no longer had the irritability he had just now, his face was calm and quiet, and he stood aside respectfully.
