Chapter 231: Greed (Subscription Requested)
Is the old man a capable person?
Definitely!
Even today can't deny it, it's just that he is too good at tossing, and his own strength is too strong, which will cause suspicion in the upper position.
That is, the eldest lord doesn't care about this, otherwise he will have a headache today, and a big lord who is attracted by the prince of real power will definitely make him angry.
No, Shuntianfu arrested dozens of wealthy servants in one go, all of them were so-called stewards of various wealthy families, and the reason for arresting them was very simple, they broke the law.
But the masters of these servants don't see it that way, they think that the eldest master is messing around, slapping them in the face, and it's hard not to get angry.
The cognitive error caused a wave of turmoil, which seemed to be less dangerous than the court, but in fact it was more sinister.
The dispute between the court and the court is a conflict of interests and ideas, and it is not to the point of really tearing the skin, and it rarely affects family members and servants.
But the eldest master's actions made the master of the captured servants feel that the eldest master intended to target, did he want to find out the dirty secrets of the master's family from the mouths of the captured servants?
It's not impossible!
The servants of the wealthy families who were arrested were all the best among the subordinates, and they had intertwined connections with the master's family, and they were likely to know many secrets that could not be known to outsiders.
These secrets are absolutely not allowed to be leaked by the captured servant master's family.
As a result, the eldest lord was suppressed either explicitly or covertly, which is a common method in officialdom.
In this regard, the eldest lord does not care, anyone who dares to provoke the head, through the explicit or covert intelligence network probe, the eldest lord who has no problem with his innocence will not move lightly, but if the ass is not clean, the eldest lord will not be polite.
His reasons for impeaching those officials are much stronger than the vague reasons for others to impeach him.
With today's temperament of not rubbing sand in his eyes, if he can tolerate the existence of such a black sheep, the eldest master will have nothing to say, and he will resign as soon as possible.
The eldest lord put on such a ruthless and ruthless method, but he frightened those powerful officials who had ghosts in their hearts, and at the same time they were quite unhappy in their hearts: How can there be such a girl, and they don't talk about the rules of officialdom?
It's a pity that the big man's oil and salt don't enter, and the other courtyards are guarded without leakage, so it's difficult to make any small moves.
So, some officials who felt that they had been refuted had lost face directly contacted Rongguofu, since the eldest master is so difficult, Rongguofu can always be used as a breakthrough, right?
Not to mention, in the face of the real power and powerful people who suddenly came to visit, the mentality of the whole Rongguo Mansion was surprisingly excited, and the people were not proud one by one, Rongguo Mansion was so good.
Mother Jia's mind is still sober, and she knows that these powerful people who come to the door have long been estranged from the house, and they must ask for something when they suddenly come to the door.
As for what you want to ask for, there are only a few things that have been in turmoil in the capital recently, and only the eldest lord is related to Rongguo Mansion, needless to say, the reason why these powerful people came to the door is to come to the eldest lord.
Although she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, Jia Mu still warmly received the noble lady who came to the door, and quickly said her intentions, which was exactly what she expected.
Jia Mu didn't respond in one bite, although she was quite dissatisfied with the eldest master, she also knew that Shuntian Mansion was not easy to do, and if she wanted to make a little achievement, she would inevitably offend people.
The eldest master has arrested so many wealthy servants, naturally he has his reasons, if Mother Jia pulls her back legs, you don't have to think that the relationship between mother and son will become worse.
This is the result she doesn't want to see, compared to the old man's attitude towards her, it is much more important than the exchange conditions offered by the noble ladies who come to the door.
Jia Mu can calm down here, but it doesn't mean that the big and small Wang clans can calm down!
I don't know where they came from with such a big face, and whenever they asked for help, the big and small Wang didn't want to agree directly, because the gifts they gave were too rich, and they were reluctant to refuse.
When Mrs. Wang received the gift, she ran the train with her mouth full, and she must have helped Yunyun with the packing ticket, but she turned her head and left it behind, and she didn't even mention it.
The relationship between the second room and the big house is so stiff, so she won't use her hot face to stick to the cold ass of the big man.
If you don't succeed and are questioned by the other party, you can directly push it on the eldest master, and it is good to find a few more enemies for the eldest master.
Mrs. Wang received the gift with peace of mind, not caring at all about the serious consequences that might occur.
On the side of the little Wang family, naturally there is no dark psychology of Mrs. Wang, but she just thinks that releasing people is just a trivial matter, and the eldest master should not hold on to it.
I felt confident that I was able to convince the old man, so I accepted the gift, of course, the gift is expensive is the main reason.
Jia Zheng didn't know his wife's actions at all, of course, even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care, his mind was similar to that of Mrs. Wang, and the big man who could pit him would pit him, there was nothing to say.
Of course, with his temperament, no one will come to ask him for help, and the second master of the government is addicted to the praise of Qingke every day, and he doesn't know that there is such a thing.
Lian Er accepted some invitations, but he didn't dare to accept them indiscriminately.
The old man's temper is so weird, if he commits the taboo of the big man, the result is very terrible.
He also wanted to get the support of the eldest master, so that he could go further in the officialdom, how could he anger the eldest master in such a 'trivial matter'.
It's just that he himself can resist the temptation, Wang Xifeng can't imagine such a far-reaching.
"I said second grandma, how can you agree to such a request?"
Lian Er went back to the house, listened to Wang Xifeng's request at the dinner table, and was so depressed that he almost vomited blood.
"What's the matter, Second Master Lian, isn't the eldest master willing to give some face for such a thing?"
When Feng Lazi saw it, he immediately pulled his face down, and subconsciously stroked his flat lower abdomen.
"My second grandmother, the eldest lord didn't arrest people this time on purpose, but the appearance of the gang of bastards, I'm afraid that now the confessions of those bastards have been sent to the criminal department, and it won't be long before they will be sentenced directly.
Seeing Wang Xifeng's subconscious movements, Lian Er forced his anger and patiently explained: "Dozens of lives are at stake, but it will shake the emperor's big case, how can the eldest master let go?" ”
"Why is it so serious?"
Feng Lazi was also taken aback, although she has always been bold and does not take the lives of others seriously, she also knows about cases involving the lives of dozens of people, but it is a big case.
"Hey, it's not the bastards who got caught!"
Lian Er sneered: "They are also characters with heads and faces in various mansions, just like Zhou Rui that day, they are even more majestic than the lord outside, they live in a big mansion with no entrances, and they use good things that are not worse than those in the house, and the maids and maids around them are as chic as they are!" ”
Feng Lazi's eyes straightened when she heard this, Nima is still the subordinate in her impression, she is more old than the master, even her and Lian Er's enjoyment is not as luxurious as this.
"Second grandma, do you know where the money comes from for these bastards?"
Lian Er sneered and continued: "Their master family has contributed a lot, and the rest is obtained through various off-board means!" ”
"Put money out of the print, so earning?"
Feng Lazi was taken aback, and to be honest, she was a little moved.
Second grandma, are you getting the point wrong?
Lian Er said depressedly: "There is a lot of money, but it is forcing dozens of people to die in one go, forcing hundreds of people to die, and once they are exposed, they will all die!" ”
Wang Xifeng smiled, and said a little unwillingly: "That's because their backstage is not hard enough!" ”
"Who has to be backstage like today?"
Lian Er sneered, not having a good airway; "Once the emperor wants to do whomever he wants, these are all big tricks, and if he doesn't do well, he has to raid his house!"
Seeing that Wang Xifeng's face was a little unhappy, he reminded angrily: "Second grandma, don't be confused, our family is being stared at by the officials of Lantai Temple, once there is a leak, we must be impeached, we don't have the confidence of the eldest master!" ”
At this time, Feng Lazi can be regarded as completely dead, as long as he thinks that there is a group of officials outside, and the greed for money can't resist the serious consequences of being caught.
Lian Er breathed a sigh of relief, and then he talked about the steward's greed for the money of the Mo master's family, and he used the arrested stewards as materials, and it was difficult to close Feng Lazi's mouth wide when he heard it.
"Zhou Rui is not a good thing, the second wife thinks how loyal her henchman is, the eldest master has passed the news that the cash directly searched from his house is 200,000 taels!"
"Where did you get so much?"
Feng Lazi was shocked again, if she just talked about how the servants of the wealthy family next to her were, it would be fun at most, but Zhou Rui was the head of the house, and she had seen it a few times.
It seems that he is honest and dedicated, but he didn't expect it to be such a greedy person.
"Where did it come from?"
Lian Er said disdainfully; "Naturally, it was picked out from the second wife's hand!"
Seeing that Feng Lazi didn't believe it, he said angrily: "Don't believe it, the second wife's interest on the money will not be too exaggerated, at most six points, but when Zhou Rui releases it, the interest must be at least seven points, or even eight points and nine cents is nothing, otherwise they will work so hard when they collect debts, and they will not let go even if they are forced to die, it is because it is related to their own income!" ”
Feng Lazi was really surprised, he didn't expect those subordinates to collect money so cruelly, and he couldn't help but think of his dowry shop and Zhuangzi, I don't know if this is the case.
"The second grandmother doesn't know, the people below are greedy, it's really crazy and unbelievable!"
Thinking of some things he knew, Lian Er couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, but he didn't notice Feng Lazi's awe-inspiring eyes, and reminded again: "Such a thing, the second grandmother must not indiscriminately agree to the requests of others, if you don't do it, you will have a mortal enemy!" ”
"I accepted all the gifts, what should the second master say?"
Feng Lazi simply played a scoundrel, anyway, with the piece of meat in his stomach, Lian Er didn't dare to do anything.
"Wait until I discuss it with the eldest master!"
Lian Er was extremely depressed, but he still nodded and took the responsibility.
