As soon as Li Hanyao thought that Wang Xiang and Lord Liang sacrificed their lives for the country, and Emperor Jiaxing wanted to destroy the Wang family, he was angry and sad on behalf of Wang Yan.

This anger is not manic and out of control.

The angrier, the calmer!

The more sorrowful, the more resolute!

She is just a bystander, someone who has nothing to do with the Wang family, and she has been beaten like this, what will happen if Wang Yan learns the news?

She couldn't imagine his reaction.

In the afternoon, Li Hanyao and Hu Qingfeng left Qutang Town by boat, and when they arrived at Chen Village, it was dark, and the man who supported the boat tied the boat and led them into the village. The place where they landed was at the end of the village, and there was a farmhouse a few dozen steps offshore, three low thatched huts, with a big poplar tree in front of the house, a vegetable patch on the side of the house, bamboo poles planted at the door, nets on them, and dogs and cats.

The boatman opened the door, and everyone entered.

A teenage black boy opened the door.

The boatman asked, "Grandpa hasn't woken up yet?" ”

The black boy said, "I'm still asleep." ”

Li Hanyao and Hu Qingfeng walked straight to the room on the right, there was an oil lamp lit in the room, although the light was faint, but because the room was empty, the line of sight was unobstructed, a wooden bed was piled with a broken quilt, and a person was lying down.

This is the old father of the boatman, who has been bedridden for more than half a year, and is a medicine jar. The boatman fished every day to earn money, and bought medicine to cure his father. Everyone in Chen Village knows about this. What the people of Chen Village don't know is that Old Man Du died half a month ago, and now he is lying on the bed with Huzhou's parent official Wen Shijie!

Hu Qingfeng said to the black boy: "Wake him up." ”

The black boy said, "Oh, doctor." ”

Li Hanyao and the others came here as doctors, and they stayed here for no more than an hour at a time, so the officers and soldiers searched the sky inside and outside the city, and they did not find that the governor was hiding in this fishing village, but he was actually an old man who was bedridden.

A quarter of an hour later, Wen Shijie woke up.

He opened and closed his eyes several times before he got used to the dim light of the oil lamp, and felt that he had strength in his body, and when he caught a glimpse of a handsome young man sitting in front of the bed, and a bearded scribe standing behind him, he exclaimed, "Who are you?" ”

Then, Huo Ran sat up.

Li Hanyao said: "Adults are so forgetful. ”

Wen Shijie then remembered that it was this young man who commanded a gang of bandits to kidnap him. Seeing that his appearance was only seventeen or eighteen years old, he looked very ordinary, except that he was handsome, he did not have a fierce or fierce spirit, and he did not look like a deep and unpredictable person, so he sank his face and said: "A bold fanatic, he dares to kidnap the court officials!" ”

In the end, he has been an official for many years, and he looks like a terminally ill old man in the countryside, and he is very majestic when he puts his face like this.

Li Hanyao said: "The adult said that he was wrong, but he saved you!" ”

Wen Shijie said: "What nonsense! ”

Li Hanyao remembered that Wang Yan was hanging, and he didn't have time to talk to him, so he didn't make any fuss, and he didn't beat around the bush, so he took out a roll of paper from his arms and handed it to him, saying: "This is a report from Huizhou to Lord Qincha according to the Nian Shen of the Inspectorate, accusing you of plotting the Li family's family business and killing Miss Li." - I'm afraid I'm going to lose my position. ”

Wen Shijie was taken aback and hurriedly took it and looked at it. After reading it, my heart sank, and I had to admit that because I was anxious to conquer the dust, I rashly seized the Li family, which provided an excellent opportunity for political enemies to bring down themselves.

It's just, this boy really saved him?

He asked, "What do you want?" ”

Li Hanyao said: "Cooperate with adults." ”

Wen Shijie asked, "How to cooperate?" ”

Li Hanyao said: "I am a businessman in the next place, and I need the protection of officialdom, and I happened to meet an adult, so I made a move." ”

Wen Shijie said: "In that case, why didn't you tell the official in advance?" Not to mention the abduction of this official, he also locked up this official here. ”

Li Hanyao said: "Lord Wen's eyes are higher than the top, if you come to visit in the next place, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see the face of the adult." ”

Wen Shijie nodded and said, "I have some courage and resourcefulness. What conditions do you have to let this official go? ”

Li Hanyao said: "Not for the time being." ”

Wen Shijie frowned.

Why don't you let him go?

But I heard Li Hanyao say again: "I used to save the adult, but I had to kidnap the adult." I came today, and I magnified people to go back. ”

Wen Shijie thought to himself, it took so much effort to kidnap him, and it would be cheaper to put him back so easily. There is no such good thing in the world! He didn't know anything about the other party's identity, origin, and purpose, and he didn't ask clearly, and his heart was not steady. Because of the saying, "Who are you?" What kind of business do you do at home? ”

In order to let him down his guard, Li Hanyao told him all the details of Hao Fan, and said: "I have been in the cloth business in Xia Jia for many years, but I have never woven a piece of cloth, so I have always wanted to build my own workshop. ”

Wen Shijie asked, "How do you want this official to take care of you?" ”

Li Hanyao said: "There is an opportunity now. ”

Wen Shijie hurriedly asked, "What chance?" ”

Li Hanyao said: "Miss Li is missing, and the Li family has no two endings and ends: one is that the emperor blames the Li family, and the other is that she is crushed by her peers. Either way, it will lead to the liquidation and auction of the Taiping Workshop. In the next hope, the adults can help me take over the Taiping firm and take over the Taiping Workshop. ”

Wen Shijie suddenly realized that this was indeed a shortcut to enter the textile industry. Because of the said: "Although this official is the governor of a state, he is not as good as the chief official of the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, and he has the power of life and death in the textile industry, so I am afraid he will not be able to help you." Moreover, this official was denounced by the old man for the sake of the Li family, how dare he show favoritism again? ”

Li Hanyao said: "There is no need for adults to show favoritism. When the opportunity comes, adults only need to help each other secretly, and never make it difficult for adults. ”

Wen Shijie was relieved, and asked tentatively: "Aren't you afraid that after the official goes back, he will turn his face and deny people and order someone to take you?" ”

Li Hanyao smiled and said meaningfully: "Don't be afraid." If you are not afraid of losing your position, you can only send someone to take it down. ”

Wen Shijie's heart sank, knowing that she must have taken her handle. What is it exactly? He stared at Li Hanyao with heavy eyes. His current appearance is that of a withered old man who has been bedridden for a long time, staring at people so gloomily under the dim oil lamp, and he is not far from a ghost, and he looks very terrible.

Li Hanyao had goosebumps all over her body.

She hugged her arm and said, "Don't look at it like that, it's scary." Although the kid offended the adults, he also showed enough sincerity. Right now, the adults have the handle in the hands of the kid, and the kid also has the evidence of guilt in the hands of the adult, and the first cooperation can only be done in this way. In the future, when the adults feel that the kid can be reused, they will no longer need to use this method. What do adults think? ”

Wen Shijie said: "It's up to you." ”

He decided to get out first.

Li Hanyao got up and said, "I ordered someone to send the adult back." ”

So, Wen Shijie was sent away overnight.

Early the next morning, there was a mourning cry from the boatman's house, saying that the old father had died, so the villagers rushed to help organize the funeral.

After the matter was decided, Li Hanyao rushed to Xiazhao.

Three days ago, the Li family in Yuezhuang was also holding a funeral, and it was Li Zhuohang who held a funeral for Li Hanyao, which was equivalent to announcing Li Hanyao's death.
