Chapter 052: Extinguishing the Mouth
In the inner hall of Xixiang Hall, Liu Ahe, who had just undergone a round of lynching, was lying on the ground with bruises all over his body, dying.
With his hands cut behind his back, he didn't even have the strength to support himself, so he could only let himself spread on the ground like mud.
He really doesn't understand, he has already made it very clear, he is also the one who is calculated, why does the money shopkeeper still not believe it? Instead, it seems that he is determined to put him to death?
In that case, wouldn't he be unjustly killed!
Liu Ahe, who was unwilling, was squirming on the ground.
He can't just die, he still wants to be a man and a good man!
At this moment, he heard someone outside the door whispering, "Is the person inside dead?" ”
"I'm afraid it's going to be soon, it's been silent for a long time!" Someone outside the house asked, "Is our shopkeeper really going to kill him?" Don't be afraid to cause trouble! ”
"What are you afraid of? Don't forget that our owner is the Marquis of Dingbei, and if something happens, the Hou Ye will come forward to settle it! The person outside the door continued to sneer, "What's more, the person inside is powerless and powerless, and when he dies, he is like a dead dog, and it is impossible for the Ye family to stand up for this kind of person who forgets his sect!" ”
"Yes...... Why do we have to ...... shopkeeper" The man lowered his voice as he spoke, but Liu Ahe in the room still guessed what he was asking.
"Heh, you don't understand this!" The other person said a little proudly, "The little peach in Chunxiangyuan is a gold hole, and the money shopkeeper has not filled it with money!" These days, it is even more expensive...... Where do you think all this money came from? If there hadn't been a poinsettia, he would have settled the accounts, and now that something happened, wouldn't he have to find someone to take the blame? ”
"Huh? And what's going on? The man was stunned before, "The money shopkeeper is so bold?" Isn't he afraid of being investigated? ”
"He is the maiden family of Mrs. Dingbei Hou, who would check him out so ignorantly?" The man outside the door sneered, "That's you, I told you the truth, don't go out and talk nonsense, we still have to rely on the money shopkeeper to eat!" ”
"Of course I know how powerful this is! It's also a loss to the money shopkeeper, so our brothers don't have to live the days of robbing houses anymore! The other one responded.
When Liu Ahe heard this, his heart was half cold.
I didn't think that the money shopkeeper who called himself a brother and brother before wanted to make himself a substitute for the dead ghost! And the promises he made to himself before are naturally uncountable.
How did things come to this?
He suddenly remembered the days when he followed his master to make incense honestly, and although he was poor, at least he would not lose his life.
"Hey, go in and see if the man is out of breath?" The two people guarding the door obviously had little patience, "Why don't you just cover this kid to death and throw him to the mass grave, and our brothers can go and drink!" ”
Then, Liu Ahe heard the creaking sound of the door opening, and he was so frightened that he quickly held his breath and pretended to be dead.
"Big brother, this kid is out of gas!" One of them just snorted.
"Then you go find a straw mat to wrap the person, I'll go find the car, and throw this kid out while the city gate is still closed!" The other person didn't bother to find out the truth, but ran out to find the car.
Liu Ahe knew that this might be his only chance of life, so he let others move it, who knew that these people actually stabbed him in the chest when they threw him into a mass grave.
"Division...... Father...... I was wrong......" Liu Ahe regretted it in his heart, but he could only close his eyes in resignation.
For the poinsettia that has already stinked, Xixiangtang can only return the money to calm the anger.
It's just that this incense is expensive for them, and they want to make a lot of money from it, but they have to lose a lot of money, in order to avoid the limelight, Xixiangtang had to temporarily close down, and Xixiangtang closed at the same time as the Xinxiang Pavilion opposite.
The two largest incense shops on East Street closed at the same time, which naturally became the talk of everyone after tea and dinner.
It's just that this topic hasn't been talked about for two days, and everyone has closed the case of Chen Ting's selling official mantle in the former ministry, and the emperor not only agreed to the decision of Chen Ting, but also demoted the prince of Mu Wangye, who participated in this matter, to the county king, and took back the personal guards of Mu Wangfu, and confiscated nearly half of the assets of Mu Wangfu.
Although there is money to be made by selling officials, the money that can be earned is far less than the eleventh of Mu Wangfu, and Emperor Qingde's move is tantamount to brushing the wool of Mu Wangye.
In this regard, Mu Wangye was not angry, but Mu Wangye's biological mother, Concubine Qin, persuaded him.
It's better to hurt money than to lose your life!
Shi Jinxiu, who got the news, couldn't wait to hire a carriage to pick up his father from the Zhenfu Division.
Shi Gang, who walked out of the gate of the Zhenfu Division, felt like a lifetime away, and he once thought that he would never be able to walk out of the gate of the Zhenfu Division alive.
"Daddy!" Shi Jinxiu hurriedly greeted him.
It was the dark cloud that sent Shi Gang out of the Zhenfu Division, and as soon as he saw Shi Jinxiu, he couldn't help but smile and came up: "Miss Shi, hurry up and take Ling Zun back to rest!" ”
Shi Jinxiu couldn't stop looking behind Dark Cloud, hoping to see the familiar fiery red figure.
"Miss Shi, don't look at it, the Grand Commander is not in the Suppression Division today." Dark clouds squeezed their eyebrows with Shi Jinxiu.
Shi Jinxiu blushed ashamedly when he said: "I...... I just want to say thank you to the Grand Commander in person......"
"Well, well, I'll help Miss Shi convey it!" Dark Cloud has a look of "I understand".
Shi Jinxiu didn't want to say more to him, so she had to thank him again and go home with her father.
Jane, who was a month older, wanted to go with Shi Jinxiu, but was persuaded by Shi Jinxiu, so she had to send Yulan to the gate to inquire about the news, and she was looking forward to it at the second gate.
"It's back, it's back! Daddy is back! As soon as Shi Yan, who went to the gate with Yulan, saw the carriage, she excitedly ran back to report to Jane's, and her voice was so loud that the entire Changxing Marquis Mansion could hear it.
"Fourth Master!" Yulan hurriedly stepped forward and supported Shi Gang with Shi Jinxiu left and right, and walked towards the inner house.
Along the way, there were always people probing their brains, and Shi Jinxiu didn't need to look to know that it must be the people sent by Dafang and Sanfang to see their jokes.
So she shook her father's hand and walked even more proudly.
"Master......" When the group of them walked to the second gate, Jane finally couldn't help but greet her, with tears in her eyes.
"I'm really sorry for you!" In front of the children, Shi Gang was embarrassed to show too much intimacy with his wife, so the two just joined hands and went to Lixiangyuan.
In the Lixiang Courtyard, Chen's mother prepared a brazier at the gate, and boiled a large pot of bath water with grapefruit leaves: "I specially helped the fourth master to go to bad luck!" In the future, Jitai will come! ”
What a good one!
Shi Gang was very moved when he heard it.
