Wen Jiaxiang and Wen Jiagui left the house and went to the town, neither of them mentioning the matter of calling Wen Jiarui.

They really can't do such an unkind thing.

When he arrived in the town, Wen Jiagui took Wen Jiaxiang back to the pharmacy to sleep.

"Second brother, don't you go to find your aunt? What about Big Brother? ”

"Looking, but now I'm going to the city, the city gates are closed, can you go in? Let's sleep for a while, and we'll be there tomorrow before the gates open." ”

His mother is a screw-up, and if they don't come out, they will be forced out by her.

But they can't be so stupid, they are really obedient and obedient and hurried to Fucheng overnight to find someone.

It's useless to go!

Wen Jiaxiang touched his head: "It's still the second brother who thinks thoughtfully." ”

――

The next day

Outside the dungeon, above the public hall, Nalan Jinnian sat lazily under the plaque of Zhengda Guangming, resting on the table with one hand, playing with Tangmu, looking cynical.

The county man knelt on the ground, his forehead covered with cold sweat: "King Jin spares his life, the lower officials don't know that it is the jade mine that the prince has bought, and the yacha said that he can buy it, and the lower officials will let him sell it to Wen Jiafu."

Li Wei in the yamen can testify about this! Xia Guan thought that he could increase some income for the yamen. Now is the time of agricultural slack, and the lower officials think that they will have an extra amount of money to build the river embankment, so that the people can have more security in the coming year. ”

When Nalan Jinnian heard this, he looked at him squarely: "Oh? It is rare for the county lord to have such a heart for the well-being of the people. ”

"This official is a county official, and it is the duty of this official to seek the well-being of the people."

Nalan Jinnian nodded: "Not bad!" Since the people of the Yamen don't know that the jade mine has been bought by the king, it has caused a lot of money to be sold! As the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, and this king will not care about this matter! ”

The county lord breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly kowtowed: "The prince is wise." ”

"But......" Nalan Jinnian changed his words: "Half of my jade mine has been mined by you, and you have to compensate this king for this part of the loss!" ”

Hearing this, the county nodded and said, "It should be!" Then the 30,000 taels that bought the jade mine, the lower officials will not get it back, how about giving it to the prince as compensation? ”

That inferior jade ore should be given to King Jin! It's good to be able to make friends with King Jin.

Nalan Jinnian didn't speak, and continued to play with Tangmu with one hand, just looking at Xiancheng coldly.

Ouyang Huai'an slapped the table hard: "Lord Li, King Jin's one is a jade and jade mine!" Just open a piece of jadeite rough, the jadeite is a good jadeite of imperial green quality, pay 30,000 taels to King Jin? Are you sending Hanako? ”

Lord County Cheng was startled, and hurriedly kowtowed: "The lower officials don't dare, but the original stones from the jade mine are not jadeite, but all inferior jade!" ”

If he is compensated according to the jadeite rough, how much silver will he have to pay?

"Nonsense! Nine times out of ten, the jade mine is jadeite, and you actually want to deceive King Jin! It's just daring! ”

The county Cheng was simply wronged: "The lower officials are terrified, my lord, the jade mine is really inferior jade!" If you don't believe it, you can send someone to open a few pieces and cut them out! Even if the lower officials have the courage, they don't dare to deceive the prince! ”

Nalan Jinnian sneered: "In order to prevent Lord Li from saying that this king oppresses people with power and threatens Lord Li to give this king huge compensation, now take Lord Li there to open a few rough stones and show him whether this king's jade mine is a jade mine or an inferior jade mine!" ”

So the county was taken to the jade mine where part of it was mined, and under his own witness, he opened a few pieces of rough stones, and cut out the rough stones on the spot, all of which were bright green in color and crystal clear! Very typical good jadeite!

Ouyang Huai'an looked at the county and snorted coldly: "Master Li, what else do you have to say?" ”

County Cheng: "........"

The county Cheng felt that he was about to die unjustly: "Lord Hui, all the officials opened are really inferior jade!" If the lower official has half a lie, the sky will thunder! This may be that Xia Guan has just finished opening the poor jade, and now there is finally a good jade! ”

"Nonsense!" Ouyang Huai'an was furious!

"Li Huaien, you and Wen Jiafu and others mistakenly mined King Jin's jade mine, and this official ordered you to ......"

In the end, County Cheng, Wen Jiafu and Song Guiqiang were fined 200,000 taels for Nalan Jinnian, plus the 30,000 taels for buying jade mines, for a total of 230,000 taels of silver.

The county has the heart to die!

200,000 taels, he has been a county official for so many years, and he has been greedy for about 100,000 taels, and now he has to paste 130,000 taels upside down!

Wen Jiafu was imprisoned for two days and one night before being released.

Although he was not tortured to confess in prison, he lived in the worst cell, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it was a rat's nest.

That's it, the next door is still a madman, I don't know how to get into his cell from the cell next door, his hair is scattered, his whole face is scratched with a lot of blood, he can't see his face clearly, he grabbed his neck and asked him to pay for his life, almost killed him!

Later, a prison messenger came to pull him away, and he saved his life, otherwise he would have died in prison!

Later, the madman was chained up by the prison messenger, but from time to time suddenly a ghost screamed that a ghost was coming!

The third watchman in the other cell was there in the middle of the night to tell a story about how one of the prisoners in his cell died and how the last one died......

From time to time, rats come and bite people.

It's driving people crazy!

It made him nervous, and he felt a gust of wind all night, as if something was close to him.

Physically and mentally devastated!

Old Man Wen looked at his eldest son's pig-headed face, his face was haggard, and he walked out of the prison after a great disaster, and tears fell all of a sudden!

His son suffered!

"Daddy!" Wen Jiafu saw the light of day again, and when he saw Old Man Wen rushing over, tears came out.

Old Man Wen hugged him and patted him on the back: "It's okay, it's all a misunderstanding!" ”

Wen Yu said with red eyes: "Dad, are you injured?" You okay? ”

Wen Wan smelled a smell and quietly took a few steps back.

Xiao Zhu watched her father-in-law come out, she wiped her tears, and did not step forward: "Xianggong, our family dug up King Jin's jade mine, and Lord Cheng of the county said that we and my aunt's family will pay a total of 70,000 taels!" ”

Seventy thousand taels?!

Wen Jiafu's eyes were black, and he fainted directly!

Damn!

――

After Aunt Wen Baozhen returned to the Wen family's old house to learn the news, her eyes also turned black for a while!

After mining the jade mine for more than half a month, the silver has not been earned, and the loss is 35,000 taels!

It's just King Jin's silver, do they dare not to pay for it?

Can't!

Zhu is anxious and angry!

Their family couldn't even take out 10,000 taels to compensate at the beginning, where was there 35,000 taels?

The family was sad.

Wen Wan lowered her head and sighed softly: "Alas, if it wasn't for the fourth uncle's family picking up a piece of jade rough, our family would not have caused such a disaster." ”

Xiao Zhu's eyes lit up.
