Chapter Ninety-Two: Turmoil within the faction
Zhang Yang walked out of the rockery, and after finally recovering his original appearance, he breathed a sigh of relief, occasionally recalling the brilliant spring love in the bathroom just now, and still blushing and heartbeating. Fortunately, the task was successfully completed, and Qu Feiyan, the little Lori, did not find out the clues, which was a happy result.
When he just returned to the room, a young man hurriedly came to report: "Master, you are finally back, Miss and Senior Brother Mi have been waiting for you in the living room for a long time." ”
He followed the little girl to the living room, and sure enough, he saw Liu Jing and Mi Weiyi sitting on chairs waiting, both of them looking a little unpleasant.
"Brother Zhang, after a surprise investigation by me and Senior Brother Mi, it has been found out that the four stewards who followed Erniang did embezzle family property. The four of them have embezzled a total of 84,500 taels of silver through various methods, and now the four of them have been imprisoned and are waiting for your fate. After Liu Jing finished speaking, she handed Zhang Yang a booklet recording her confession.
After Zhang Yang briefly read some general contents, he finally found out the ins and outs of the matter. According to the confessions of the four stewards, Mrs. Li is of course the real mastermind behind the scenes.
During this period, he asked Liu Jing a few words about the Li family, but Liu Jing was indeed a person who knew the general situation. Although she has always been at odds with the Li family, she didn't mention this matter at all, and she should have thought that Mrs. Li was from Liu's mansion even if she was wrong. If there is such a fork during his father's funeral, it will be the face of the Liu family that will be smeared.
"Senior Sister Liu, I know, I've worked hard for you today, you can go back and rest first. In the future, the affairs of the inner courtyard of the Liu Mansion will have to worry you more. "Zhang Yang's meaning is obvious, which means that the financial problems of the inner courtyard will be handed over to you in the future.
After Liu Jing saluted with a happy face, Shi Shiran walked out of the door.
"Boss, ** is guilty, please punish." After Liu Jing went out, Mi Weiyi suddenly knelt down.
"Brother Mi, what do you mean, get up and speak." Zhang Yang glanced at him meaningfully.
"Presumably, it is not difficult for the head to see from the confession that this matter is indeed related to my master. It's just that ** Nian has been teaching for many years in the master, and for the sake of the master and his old man, he secretly reported the matter to her. That's why she was able to hand over the account books of the privately embezzled property in time, ** violated the rules of the door, and asked the head to punish her. After finishing speaking, Mi Weiyi buried his head and fell to the ground.
Zhang Yang was also surprised just now, why did he hand over his private property so quickly when he first investigated the Li family, and thought that this woman was full of eyeliner in the mansion, and it turned out that Mi Weiyi reported the news.
"You don't have to blame yourself, if it were me, I would do the same. Since you have explained this, it shows that you are a good man who dares to act, how can I blame you, get up quickly! At this time, Zhang Yang's head has not yet sat firmly, and it is the time to employ people, Mi Weiyi's actions should not be punished for being reasonable and reasonable.
Zhang Yang not only did not punish him in the slightest, but also praised him greatly. After a few more conversations, the two brought the topic back to the embezzlement incident.
"The four stewards who are greedy for money should first confiscate their embezzled property, and then deal with it severely according to the rules of the gang. Finally, the results of the punishment will be made public, and every steward in the palace must know about it. After asking Mi Weiyi's opinion, Zhang Yang finally made such a decision, the purpose of which was of course to make an example of the chickens.
……
Early the next morning, Zhang Yang was dressing and washing under the service of a maid.
"Master, it's a big deal...... a familiar anxious voice sounded outside the courtyard.
After a while, I saw Xiang Danian and Mi Weiyi hurrying over. In general, these two people can make up their minds, but if the two of them come together, there must be something big in the faction.
"What happened?" Zhang Yang couldn't help frowning, and looked at Mi Weiyi, who was still calm.
"That's right, this morning, Senior Brother Xiang and I followed the orders of the head of the family, and we were about to count the belongings handed over by the four stewards and the senior lady yesterday. Unexpectedly, a large number of officers and soldiers rushed to seize all those shops and mansions. Mi Weiyi said with an ugly face, obviously he had guessed that this must be the ghost of the Li family.
"What is the reason for the officers and soldiers to close the shop?" Zhang Yang's brows furrowed even tighter, and of course he instantly understood the reason.
"Saying that we are evading taxes, according to the law, we can temporarily seize private property that does not pay taxes." explained to Danian.
"When we came back, we had carefully searched for the batch of property transferred by the master yesterday, and indeed we did not find any tax bills. And I have already sent someone to ask the teacher, she, she said that this batch of property because of negligence, forgot to pay taxes...... "It was only because of his ventilation report that this file happened, and Mi Weiyi was ashamed and pressed his head lower."
"Hmph, if you forget to pay taxes, you can forget this kind of thing? And there are not only shops, but also fields and real estate, and it is okay for shops to forget to pay taxes, and they can also forget to pay taxes when they are handed over? Zhang Yang said with a sinking face.
"The head of the sect is angry......" Xiang Danian and Mi Weiyi knelt down at the same time and said.
The meaning of the two was obvious, and they still didn't want to blame Lee.
"Get up, for Uncle Liu's sake, since I said that I won't embarrass the Li family, I won't break my word. I have my own way of dealing with this matter, and I won't make it difficult for you. Zhang Yang thought about it and said like this.
Although he really wanted to kill the Li family to set an example, but now that the position of the head of the family is not stable, the Li family's prestige and popularity in Hengshan ** have always been good. If he is killed at this time, I am afraid that he will be the head of the family, so this matter will have to be considered in the long run.
However, he said that he thought of a way to deal with officers and soldiers, but it was not false, for a man with peerless martial arts, this is not easy to do!
That night, a figure dressed in black jumped out of the wall of Liu's mansion like a butterfly. After the figure flew all the way on the roof, it soon came to the mansion of the county lord Zhang.
This person is played by Zhang Yang, he is not a righteous gentleman who does everything according to the rules of the rivers and lakes. Since that Lord Zhang was going to embarrass him, of course he couldn't sit still, so he had to take the initiative.
Originally, there was no need to risk himself as the head of the house, but in the early days of waiting, if he let others do everything, wouldn't it seem that he was very incompetent?
About a tea time later, Zhang Yang appeared in a gloomy flower, holding a map that resembled a mansion in his hand. Under the light of the fire fold, I could barely see the situation on the map.
"According to the confession of the little guy just now, this adult Zhang has always lived with his favorite concubine in the West Wing, so this must be here."
Of course, he would not be unprepared before he came, and he had already sent someone to inquire about Lord Zhang's living habits and find out the map of his mansion.
Just in case, I also knocked down three patrolmen just now, and asked some more about the situation.
After many tests, he knew that the guards in the county's Cheng Mansion were even inferior to the Liu Mansion. Of course, there are masters among the officers and soldiers, but they will definitely not work for a small county, and most of them go to the capital to find another job. You must know that in the Legend of the Condor Heroes, even the home guards invited by King Jin are just some small characters in the rivers and lakes.
Zhang Yang relied on the Huashan Light Body Method, and ran rampant in a small county mansion, of course, he was at ease.
A moment later, a soft cry sounded in the dormitory of Lord Zhang, but it calmed down after a while. After about half an hour, Zhang Yang's black-clothed figure calmly left the county mansion.
……
In a fine house in the inner courtyard of Liu's mansion, only the sound of continuous ping-pong was heard, which was obviously the sound of porcelain and other objects being crumbled, and then a woman's voice with anger was revealed:
"What do you say, all the officers and soldiers have withdrawn, and not a single one has been left?"
"Madam, the villain saw with his own eyes, and indeed there was no one left. Moreover, when these officers and soldiers left, they also tore off the seals themselves. When the villain went to inquire about an acquaintance of one of the officers and soldiers, he only heard him say that the county lord had found out that the tax evasion was a complete misunderstanding in the morning, so he removed the seal. A man dressed as a small guy said colorfully.
"This surnamed Zhang is really a wine bag and rice bag, no wonder he can only be a small county for 20 years, and he compromised so quickly." Li Xiutao said and threw a delicate vase on the ground again, and then sat on a chair tiredly and panted.
I don't know how long it took, and the little guy in the house also quietly left, leaving only Li Xiutao, who had messy sideburns.
"Zhang Yang, you have caused me to work hard for more than ten years to be ruined, since the surname Zhang can't help you, then I will personally send you on the road......" Her slightly narrowed eyes shot a deep look of resentment, and her tone was very cold. (To be continued.) )
