Chapter 65: Detective Zhou Xiaocao (4)

PS: Some people say that the reason why there is smog is because there is a "public fog source"; The reason why everyone doesn't govern is because there is a "morning habit". What do you think?

Hehe, nonsense, everyone just laughs, the following is the text.

The official who was said to be Dali Siqing waved his hand and pointed at Feng Zigui and Feng Yulan's father and daughter: "Arrest this pair of criminals and father and daughter who are suspected of rebellion!" ā€

Several officials rushed forward with a shout and began to tie them up with ropes. Zhou Xiaocao was shocked, and hurriedly went up to stop him: "What are you doing?" What do you want to do? ā€

Several officials stopped and looked at the Dali Temple: "My lord, look at this"

Dali Siqing came to Zhou Xiaocao's side and said with a sneer: "Zhou Juren, although the emperor has a special purpose not to arrest you, but if you obstruct official business, this official can also punish you!" ā€

Then he leaned into Zhou Xiaocao's ear and whispered: "Zhou Juren, this official saw that you are also a scholar, so he made an exception to give advice." Think about it, why does the case in Cangzhou need to be managed by the government of our capital? In the case of a businessman, why would you dispatch a Dali temple secretary of my level? Zhou Juren, the water here is deep! ā€

Zhou Xiaocao was dumbfounded. This Dali Siqing is right, this kind of thing is really very unusual. Could it be that he offended the people in the capital? It is also possible, because Feng Zigui goes to Tatar all the year round to run business, and he has to pass through the capital. There is also a possibility, that is, the imperial court is going to war with the Tatar state, and it is at this time that something goes wrong, so there will be a group of merchants with black pots on their backs. Anyway, be sure to check it out.

That's right, little prince!

There is such a buddy in the capital, so Zhou Xiaocao's heart finally put down a stone. But seeing Feng Zigui and Feng Yulan being escorted away, Zhou Xiaocao's heart was still very uncomfortable.

He ran to Dali Siqing's side, took out the silver he was carrying, leaned up and said, "This lord, what do you call it?" ā€

Dali Siqing said with a smile: "It's good to say, this official Dali Siqing often gathers." ā€

Zhou Xiaocao handed over the money in his hand: "It turned out to be Lord Chang, look up to it for a long time!" I wonder if you can tell me a little bit about what crime I, my father-in-law, have committed? ā€

But Master Chang refused to accept his money, and said, "You should keep the money for yourself." To tell you the truth, Feng Zigui this time, it was planted at home. Merchants like them dare to say that every time they go out of the jam, they don't bring some items that are forbidden to be exchanged by the imperial court? However, what about this kind of thing, he can't say it on the surface, right? But! Now, there is evidence that three thousand catties of pig iron were found in Feng Zigui's caravan! Three thousand pounds! That's the items that the imperial court has repeatedly stated that cannot be circulated outside the plug, and he Feng Zigui dares to smuggle, and there are so many at once! If this goes to the Tatar kingdom, how many weapons will have to be made? Three thousand catties at a time, how much was smuggled before? Sue you, just this crime is enough for him Feng Zigui Ling Chi to be executed! ā€

As he spoke, Master Chang stretched out his hand, patted Zhou Xiaocao's shoulder, and sighed: "It's not that the official doesn't help you, it's really this case that has alarmed the Son of Heaven, and no one dares to say it!" You, since the saint will not be held accountable, and your identity as a door-to-door son-in-law is not very good, take advantage of this incident, and quickly break off with the Feng family, so as not to affect you in the future, it is really not cost-effective. ā€

The more Zhou Xiaocao listened, the more frightened she became, this time it seemed that Feng Zigui's family had no chance to turn over at all. Feng Zigui carried prohibited items such as pig iron and salt in the goods, which not only Zhou Xiaocao knew, but also the prefect Xie Bingzhou. However, the amount of these things is not large, and secondly, everyone is entrained, but not only Feng Zigui's family. Therefore, the government also turns a blind eye. Even if this pig iron was transported to the Tatar country, with the skills of those people, they could not make any good weapons, and most of them were just daily necessities such as agricultural tools or iron pots. This pig iron is not tempered, and it cannot be used as a raw material for crafting weapons.

Zhou Xiaocao thought in his heart that this must be something big that the Feng family had offended. This big man has his hands and eyes all over the sky, and he stabbed the matter to the emperor at once. Turning this kind of thing that all businessmen do into individual cases, and turning it into only the smuggling of the Feng family, this is enough to anger the Son of Heaven. Even the emperor knows that most businessmen are smuggling, but after all, this time it was said on the surface, the Son of Heaven must express this attitude, and the Feng family must be destroyed!

Zhou Xiaocao looked at the dejected Feng father and daughter over there, his heart tightened, and said to Chang Ju: "Master Chang, the student has a request, as the saying goes, a husband and wife are a hundred days a day, after all, I still have feelings for this Feng Yulan, can you let the students talk to their father and daughter alone?" ā€

Chang Ju groaned for a while, and then said, "Okay." In fact, this time the emperor pointed out that you will not be implicated, which means that there must be someone superior to help you behind. If you can find him, you may be able to do it! It's hard to say, after all, this is a felony of rebellion, and it will be difficult to keep you alone. Okay, I'll make an exception to give you a stick of incense, go ahead! ā€

Zhou Xiaocao gratefully saluted Chang Ju and walked over. Chang Ju waved his hand, and the officials all stepped back some distance, giving them space to talk. However, they must not be far away to prevent the prisoners from escaping. You must know that many of the businessmen who run business outside all the year round are martial arts.

Feng Yulan looked at Zhou Xiaocao, and tears flowed from Ai Ai's eyes: "Xianggong, the concubine can't always be with her in the future, concubine",

Feng Zigui shook his head and said, "Yulan, do you still think he is your father-in-law?" You don't want to think about it, this time the incident was so sudden, and it directly alarmed the Dali Temple, and the Cangzhou Mansion came to raid the house, you still don't understand what's going on? ā€

Feng Yulan is not a fool, so she naturally knows what her father is referring to. He turned his face to look at Zhou Xiaocao and said, "Is this true?" ā€

Zhou Xiaocao hurriedly swore an oath: "There is no such thing!" I, Zhou Xiaocao, stand up to the sky, how can I do such a thing? ā€

Feng Zigui said coldly: "No? Then you sue me, what kind of person were you before? Why is it suddenly so powerful? Is there a superior person to help? This master, is he a little prince? He gave you the identity of a lifter, right? This rebellion was conspired by the two of you, right? Is that Young Master Jin who came to treat his illness the staff of the little prince? Did he come to discuss this matter in the name of healing? Otherwise, when did you learn to see a doctor? There are so many doctors in the capital who can't look down on it, but you can look at it? It's all a game, right? ā€

Feng Yulan Yan was full of tears, looked at Zhou Xiaocao and asked, "Xianggong, this qiē must not be true, right?" ā€

Zhou Xiaocao faced Feng Zigui's series of questions, and he really couldn't explain it. He can't say that your former son-in-law is dead, I am from another time and space, my name is Du Zhitao, I am not Zhou Xiaocao!

Can he say these things? No! Will anyone believe it if you say it? No!

So, Zhou Xiaocao didn't say. But if he didn't speak, it would make the Feng father and daughter think that this was a tacit acquiescence.

Feng Zigui laughed miserably: "How is it? Nothing to say, right? You are calculating in every possible way to get rid of this fame. You don't have to hide it from me, what about my daughter, I know what her temper is, I don't bully you on weekdays, right? You're right to hold a grudge. Besides, there has always been a contradiction between the Han and the Hu people, and if you hurt me here in disregard of morality, you may be able to get a good reputation. Congratulations, Zhou Juren! ā€

Zhou Xiaocao was at a loss: "Father-in-law, son-in-law is really"

Feng Zigui raised his head: "I'm not your father-in-law!" Our daughter of the Hu people, how can she climb high to the Han people! ā€

Feng Yulan looked at Zhou Xiaocao with a stunned look in her eyes: "Xianggong, do you really hate Yulan?" ā€

Zhou Xiaocao really can't stand it, the key is that he can't explain it yet. Annoyed, Zhou Xiaocao ran back to Chang Ju's side and said angrily: "Master Chang, they now think that I reported it, and they are angry with me!" ā€

Chang Ju stared at Zhou Xiaocao and looked at it carefully, and said, "Isn't it you?" Everybody thinks you can't get out of it. ā€

"I'm cĒŽo! I won't tell you, I'll go find Master Xie, I'll go to him for help! ā€

After speaking, Zhou Xiaocao ran away.
