Chapter 161 Fake Public Welfare and Private Interests

Governor Li Zhang inherited the elder Shi Dafu Chengge, but he was not very angry, and it took more than ten years to sit in the position of governor.

His teacher handed him the news that there are a few old guys in the ministry who will retire next year, and they will definitely be promoted at that time, and some positions will be vacated. If he can make some achievements before this, he can run it and transfer Li Zhangyu to the capital officials.

As long as he enters the ministry, even if he is a petty official, he has many more opportunities to climb up than this governor, and with the help of the old minister, no matter how much he has no interest, he will be on the rise.

As soon as he received the news, Li Zhang set off with people to inspect the counties. Just to wait for an opportunity. Originally, he disdained a wealthy businessman in a small town, but the other party still held the token of the prince's cronies in his hand.

He weighed it and thought about it and decided to give it a go. As a result, I found that the water here was mudier than expected, which is no longer a small business. It's a matter of collusion between officials and businessmen.

And based on his experience for so many years, he keenly felt that this should not be simple. is like private salt, where does the Zheng family pick up the head, where is it transported from, and where is it sold.

According to the imperial court law, it is a felony to sell and buy illicit salt. Among the things that were dug up, only a simple account was found, on which the number and date of the money purchased and sold were recorded. However, there is no record of where to buy and where to sell.

Li Zhang was very excited when he saw these things, and four words immediately appeared in his mind - God help me.

If you can find out this line, you must be transferred back to the capital, and it is not a problem to go further.

As soon as Li Zhang's side was angry, someone came in and whispered a few words in his ear.

"Heh, I'm really in a hurry to find death. Since they are so impatient, then the official will fulfill them. Li Zhangzhong snorted, brushed his sleeves and strode out.

He hadn't even bothered to clean up this group of people, but he sent it to the door himself, so impatient. If you don't go to the trial, I'm sorry for their eagerness to die.

The people who are still fighting in the prison have no sense of crisis at all, and they give people the feeling that they are protected by a golden bell hood. Even if you go to a cell, you always get out.

As everyone knows, this time it's really kicking the iron plate, or the kind of burning feet.

What the Zheng family will face next, maybe only they know. But it is undeniable that the Zheng family is finished.

All the shops below were sealed, and the official seals sealed those restaurants and cloth shops anyway, as long as they were the Zheng family. For a while, all the excitement seemed to be driven out, especially the noisy streets.

The other stores are bustling with people. On the door of one or two houses, two large seals are pasted on the door and no one dares to approach, which is particularly abrupt, but anyone who walks by will take a look.

However, because all the shops of the Zheng family were closed, this also caused the business of other shops to suddenly become popular. Some businesses that were about to be completed suddenly ushered in a small peak.

Now, the storytellers in the teahouse don't talk about anything else, just talk about the Zheng family. There are a lot of people going to the show every day, a lot more than before. For this reason, the teahouse also added silver to the storyteller to add another one in the afternoon.

Wan Ge sat in the private room on the second floor, and the storyteller below had already talked about the Zheng family being taken away. In fact, many people saw it that day, but they were willing to listen to it again, just like the evening song.

She has been here for three days in a row, and every time she comes, it is when the storyteller is talking about the Zheng family. Even if she has seen it with her own eyes, even if she has heard it several times, she still comes.

This was the signal of the fall of the Zheng family.

It's just that when will Song Jiu be able to come back? There is still more than a month to go before the New Year, can you catch up?

The evening singer gently touched her belly, and the child in her womb moved in response. Feeling the kick of vitality and energy, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and the gloomy dark clouds suddenly dispersed.

It doesn't matter, now that the Zheng family's fall is a matter of ironclad, it is only a matter of time before it is verified. If you can't come back for the Chinese New Year, then wait for the child to be born.

I believe that by that time, it will be clear, and Song Jiu will definitely be able to come back.

At this time, Song Jiu was also waiting for news, and after handing the things to Li Zhang, Li Zhang asked him a few words. However, because he didn't find someone who could prove that he was framed, Li Zhang couldn't just nod his head and let the people over there be people, even if Song Jiu held the prince's cronies token in his hand, it wouldn't work, at least not on the face.

put it on the table, what is the matter of his words, you still have to pay attention to evidence. To put it mildly, if he agreed, he would first promise to negotiate with Shen Liang and release him first, but it turned out that this was not the case at all, so who would admit it?

He is also a critical time now, and he can't make a mistake, and everything has to be watertight, so that he won't be corrected.

However, Li Zhang asked him not to panic first, saying that he believed in Song Jiu and understood his anxiety. After finding out the truth, he immediately sent it to Shen Liang, so that he could go back to reunite with his wife and children as soon as possible.

Having said so much actually meant the same thing, how could Song Jiu not understand it, but this was not so strange as he expected.

After leaving the mansion where Li Zhang lived, Song Jiu did not rush back, but inquired about which tavern nearby had good wine, and then went to drink alone.

A glass of wine drunk at Shen Liang's hooked his gluttony. How can a glass of wine be enjoyable, it's just to amuse people. He was itching all night last night, and he only wanted to drink.

Now that the business is done, he can't wait to drink. He ordered a jar of wine and a plate of peanuts, and sat like that all afternoon, slowly finishing and getting the wine.

Seeing that the sky was dark, he left, and before leaving, he did not forget to bring two jars, one for him and one for Shen Liang. There was no alcohol in the camp, and I had a hard time without a little brought. And bringing an extra jar is just to have a good relationship with Shen Liang, and this relationship is settled, and in the future, if you follow the people in the room to come out to collect something, you can also do nothing......

In order not to be discovered, he deliberately waited until it was dark. By the time we rode back to camp, everyone who should have slept had already slept.

Holding the disguised wine jar, Song Yu greeted the two soldiers guarding without changing his face, and strode forward, his face was not red, and his heart was not beating calmly.

He walked straight to Shen Liang's tent, and it was already midnight at this time. Shen Liang had already fallen asleep, and when he was sleeping soundly, someone suddenly came to report.

If it were someone else, the gatekeeper would have stopped him. But it was Song Jiu who came, and he hesitated for a moment but went to report.

There's no way, who asked Shen Liang to call Song Jiu over when he had something to do some time ago. Everyone who follows Shen Liang knows that the two have a lot of relationship.

If Shen Liang, who was woken up, knew that this would be the case, he didn't know if he would be so angry that he would drop things.

"What are you doing here without sleeping at night, if you don't want to say one, two, three, don't blame me for being unkind." Shen Liang, who had just been woken up and got up from the bed, was full of sleepiness. Saying a word, yawning a few times, the tone sounded implied anger. He looked very unhappy.

Song Jiu was not vain, and directly put the vegetable cage he was holding on the table. Stretched out his hand and tore open the clothes covered on his head, revealing the two jars of wine inside, and said, "Send you good things, if you want it, I'll take it away if you don't want it." ”

Shen Liang glanced at it, and his eyes, which were still fighting, suddenly came to his senses. He stretched his waist and walked over and pulled the wine seal, and suddenly the rich aroma of wine wafted out, and he smelled it and was energetic.

"Not bad." Shen Liang smashed his mouth and re-plugged the wine seal: "For your sake, I accepted the two jars of wine." As for you disturbing my dreams, forget it. ”

After that, Shen Liang was about to reach out and pick up the wine and the cage together, intending to hide it and drink it slowly. didn't want to just touch the cage, so Song Jiu held him down and said, "Wait." ”

Shen Liang looked at him inexplicably: "What's the matter, you still want to take it back!" "If that's the case, he immediately asked people to come in and arrest Song Jiu.

"A jar of yours, a jar of mine." Song Jiu pointed to the wine in the cage.

"......" thought that these were all for himself, but who knew that Song Jiu would give such a play. Shen Liang was very unhappy about this.

"No alcohol is allowed in the camp, it's your first offense, this time I only confiscated your wine, and next time it won't be so easy to say." Shen Liang said solemnly with a straight face. Then the hand quickly pulled up the cloth to cover the object, and called for someone to come in.

"Your Excellency." The soldier opened the curtain and walked in, respectfully.

Shen Liang nodded and asked him to take Song Ji down.

"Yes." The soldier responded, and then made a gesture of invitation to Song Jiu. He thought to himself, sure enough, it was right to let people in, and he didn't lose his temper when he saw the adults being woken up. In the future, I should be polite when I see Song Jiu, otherwise I will be finished if I turn around and say something in front of adults.

Song Jiu looked at the cheeky Shen Liang and left speechlessly, knowing that he shouldn't have taken it to anyone. Wait for him to live slowly with his little wine.

Shen Liang, who had two jars of good wine, didn't care so much, he put the wine away and lay back on the bed to continue sleeping. People are so happy that they keep dreaming in the middle of the night, and the next day they get up in a happy mood, and everyone is pleasant.

On the contrary, Song Jiu's face was ugly. At the end of the day, there was an air of anger and annoyance all over my body. On weekdays, a few people who are relatively close to him have to pay attention to three points when talking to him, for fear of annoying people.

But this is just a trivial matter, I have already drunk a lot yesterday, and it doesn't matter if I don't drink for a while. Even if he thought about it, he went to Shen Liang with a meal, and he didn't believe that he couldn't drink wine. If that was the case, he would let the entire camp know that Shen Liang was faking public affairs.
