Chapter 286: Ransom with money

You are going back and forth in this mansion, and the onlookers outside are also lively, and soon the news that the students of Shangshantang set fire to people's teahouses worth millions of dollars immediately spread.

Shangshantang and Qingxue Hall have been opposed for more than ten years, since Shangshantang has developed better and better, and it has always been against Qingxueguan, it has been secretly hated by Qingxueguan, and now that he has caught this handle, he naturally immediately publicized it.

When Luo Wenliang knew about this, he was in his study, his fingers rubbing an envelope, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't plan to send it, but burned it directly.

At this moment, there was a sound of anxious footsteps, and immediately someone banged vigorously on the door, and hurriedly shouted: "Dean, dean!" ”

Luo Wenliang held on to the crutches, slowly got up and opened the door at once, and asked with a majestic face, "What's the matter?" ”

"Dean, it's not good!"

Luo Wenliang frowned and said: "What is not good, if there is anything, I will make it clear." ”

"Dean, wasn't the Changyuan teahouse sold to the Lu family, and then Qi Heng went to set fire to the teahouse, and then Li Jing thought it was a fire, which would inevitably affect others, so he took the students to report to the official, and now the truth is revealed, and people outside are rumoring that we Shangshantang loves to take advantage of a small advantage, because he was dissatisfied with the teahouse being sold, he directly set fire to other people's teahouses."

After Luo Wenliang heard this passage, he didn't know where to start for a while, what is the teahouse that was sold, and what is the teahouse that set fire to other people's teahouses?

"You mean, Li Jing took someone to report to the official, and the thief shouted to catch the thief, and then he was caught, right?" Luo Wenliang asked softly.

The man was stunned, and it didn't seem wrong for the dean to say this, but it made people feel a strange feeling in their hearts.

"How much is the teahouse worth?" Luo Wenliang then asked.

"It's worth a million taels." The man said, his face was pale, his legs were weak, and they might not be able to take out the million taels in the entire Shangshan Hall, and those people were estimated to be miserable, and their future was all folded on this.

"Okay, I got it." Luo Wenliang said lightly.

The man was stunned, and now there is a lot of rumors outside, and the reputation of their Shangshan Hall is about to be destroyed, and the dean said such a light and fluttering sentence, I know, is it really okay?

"Dean, what are you going to do with this......

"Take this sign to the Prime Minister's Mansion, don't say anything, hand over the sign and leave. As for those people, since they have made mistakes, they will be punished, and everything will be listened to by the prefect. Luo Wenliang said that, closed the door again, and then walked slowly behind his desk on crutches.

The man outside the door hesitated for a moment, but still ran away with the token in hand.

Luo Wenliang did not sit down again, but quietly looked at the room with a cane, and then looked at the familiar placement, thinking that he had been busy in this room for all these years, year after year, and it seemed that he had not rested much. After a while, he seemed to remember something, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and the whole person seemed to be relaxed, and said in a low voice: "Almost, enough." ”

Here, Yin Sheng looked at the Shangshantang students who were crying and shouting below, his brows furrowed even deeper, they were the ones who showed off their might at the beginning, but now they are the ones who are crying bitterly, and the retribution is really fast enough.

Yin Sheng patted the hall in shock and said: "According to the law of Da Liang, if a false accuser can ask for forgiveness, he can only be imprisoned for three days as a punishment, and if he is not forgiven, he will be locked up for fifteen days. In addition, arson is a big crime, not to mention that the teahouse is worth millions, and Qi Heng will be imprisoned immediately! If the family members come up with a million taels and the cost of repairing the tea house, they can be locked up for three months, and if they can't, they will be recorded in the crime until the arrears are paid off. ”

Lu Chengyanrong glanced at each other lightly, they could only admit the million taels, this Shangshantang couldn't take out a million taels, and now it was only a few days of detention to set an example, but it was not a loss to let Shangshantang fall a big heel.

At the moment, Lu Chengyan and Rong Qingqing did not raise any objections, but it was impossible for them to forgive.

After Yin Sheng's sentence was passed, Zhang Zhuhai immediately brought people up and escorted away all the students who were kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, and the hall finally quieted down.

Governor Yin ordered Master Yin to gently invite Lu Chengyan and Rong to the back, and then he took the first step to go to the back and wait.

Here, Lu Chengyan and Rong gently looked at the people who came to testify, and thanked them one by one.

The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master Lu, they can't pay this money back, why don't I return 500,000 taels." ”

Lu Chengyan immediately waved his hand and said: "I don't blame you for this, it's that they are too vicious, and after doing this, they can't afford to pay it back." ”

Rong gently comforted: "The shopkeeper Wang, we bought this teahouse, we bought it, we can only say that we were unlucky, we met a bunch of wicked people, but you can rest assured, since the teahouse burned, we will tear down and rebuild, anyway, you sold this title deed to us." ”

The shopkeeper wiped his tears and said sadly: "Who would have thought that my teahouse for more than ten years would raise such a person. ”

Liu Da also shook his head slightly on the side and said, "I didn't expect that it was convenient for us to be with these students, but they called us Diao Min......"

The rest of the people who came to testify were also angry.

Lu Chengyan and Rong comforted them lightly for a while, and then asked Lu Er to help Liu Da deliver coal, after all, it was a delay in people's time, and then after the delivery, they would come to the government to pick them up.

Lu Er answered, and then drove the carriage, and the people who would testify in the future, as well as the king's shopkeeper, were all sent away.

At this time, the master stepped forward and saluted: "Young Master Lu, Young Lady Lu, the prefect is waiting in the backyard." ”

Lu Chengyan nodded, carefully took Rong Qing's hand, and then followed the master to the backyard of the mansion, he was now covered in ash, and it was really not good to stain Rong Qing's clothes.

In the backyard, Yin Sheng had already made it, and the tea was poured.

Lu Chengyan sat down unceremoniously, and the dusty sleeves swept directly over.

After giving a gentle salute, Rong also sat down.

Yin Sheng frowned and looked at Lu Chengyan, then looked at Rong and asked softly and gently, "It's very hard to marry such a gentleman." ”

Rong pursed his lips lightly and smiled: "Husband is very good." ”

Lu Chengyan raised his eyebrows and looked at Yin Sheng with a smug look.

"This teahouse ......" Yin Sheng just spoke, and then he was suddenly interrupted, it turned out that the master was going and returning, and his steps were hurried, as if he was in a hurry.

"My lord, someone came to send a million taels of teahouse loss fees, and a hundred thousand taels of silver for reconstruction." The master said.

Rong was lightly startled, a little surprised, he didn't expect that this silver tael would really come back.
