"This?"

Gu Panxi followed Shi Feiqing's big eyes and small eyes.

This was really unexpected.

The two of them were still counting on Xu Zhijie's help to get the Yanyu Building as soon as possible, but looking at Xu Zhijie's appearance, it seemed that they still had something to help the two of them. And listening to Xu Zhijie's tone, this matter does not seem to be simple.

It's ridiculous.

Gu Panxi asked directly: "Chief soldier Xu, what is there in this Jinling City, what is the earth-shattering black curtain that makes you deal with it, all like walking on thin ice and trembling?" ”

Xu Zhijie smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from Mrs., this shady curtain is just related to Yanyu Building, Rushuang Pavilion, and the Hundred Flowers Banquet." ”

Gu Panxi narrowed his eyes.

Such a coincidence? The shady curtain that Xu Zhijie called is actually related to Yanyu Building, Rushuang Pavilion and Hundred Flowers Banquet?

When Shi Feiqing heard this, he immediately became interested and urged: "Mr. Xu, please speak quickly." ”

Xu Zhijie sat back in his place, sorted out the wording, and then spoke: "Master Hou and Mrs., they must have heard some rumors in the Yanyu Building, and they know that Xia Guan and Mo Juqi, the owner of the Yanyu Building, are friends who met before they started, right?" ”

Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi didn't have to hide this, and nodded in unison.

It turned out that the Mo official of Yanyu Building was really named Mo Juqi. Gu Panxi said secretly.

Xu Zhijie let out a long sigh, smiled wryly, and said, "I think the reason why Hou Ye and his wife are more wary of Xiaguan is also because of the friendship between Xiaguan and Mo Juqi, right?" ”

Gu Panxi scratched his face a little embarrassed and said, "It does have this effect." ”

Xu Zhijie smiled bitterly again, and said lightly: "The friends I made when I was a teenager have become shackles that are difficult to get rid of when I get older. Master Hou, madam, when you inquired about the news of Xia Guan in the Yanyu Building, you should not only inquire about the relationship between Xia Guan and Mo Juqi, but also wanted to know whether Xia Guan colluded with Mo Juqi to accept his benefits and bribes, right? ”

Xu Zhijie said so frankly, Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi should naturally treat each other with sincerity.

Shi Feiqing said: "Ben Hou heard something from the girl in Yanyulou. Judging from those things alone, the general soldier must not be a person who will be in the same league as Mo Juqi. ”

"That's right." Gu Panxi echoed, "Don't worry, Mr. Xu, both of us and my husband believe in your character." Otherwise, just now, Fei Qing would not have accepted your allegiance. ”

Xu Zhijie nodded with relief, only to feel that a big stone fell to the ground in his heart.

"Don't hide it, Master Hou, madam, this Mo Juqi and his subordinates are not just as simple as childhood friends. When he was young, he once saved the life of a lower official. Xiaguan is a person who thinks of the source and knows how to repay his kindness, so since he came to Jiangnan to take up his post, Xiaguan has made no secret of the fact that he has made friends with Mo Juqi. At that time, Mo Juqi was just a street vendor, and the lower officials tried to help him three times and twice to make his life better. It's just that I never thought that Mo Juqi would put an official ......"

When Xu Zhijie said this, he couldn't help but shake his head and said: "That Yanyu Building was taken by him by skillfully taking advantage of the name of a lower official. The original owner of Yanyu Building had no intention of selling it at all, but Mo Juqi relied on his status as a friend of the lower officials and intimidated the original owner of Yanyu Building many times, and finally forced him to sell it at a low price. Mo Juqi used the silver borrowed from Qian Zhuang by relying on the reputation of the lower official to lower the storefront, and quickly made a fortune, and then repeated the old trick, borrowing the name of the lower official, forcing the shops of many restaurants in Jinling City to grit their teeth and transfer the store to him at a low price. In a short period of time, Mo Juqi went from a street vendor to a tycoon in Jinling City. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Zhijie clenched his right fist and slammed the table.

"Xiaguan Pingsheng hates this kind of fox fake the most

Tiger might, fish and meat of the common people. But when the lower officials learned about this, it was already too late, and the rice was already cooked at that time. Xia Guan also reasoned with Mo Juqi about this matter, and wanted to persuade him to turn back and return the store to the original owner. Mo Juqi took out the transfer deed signed by the store, saying that it was all his legal property, and there was no reason to give it up...... Although the lower official is angry and hateful, there is no reason to force him to submit with the power in his hands! Xia Guan regretted it, if he had been more determined at the beginning, maybe this Mo Juqi would not have become such a big tumor......"

Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi both heard it with a sigh in their hearts, they didn't expect this great official to have such a history. What made them even more curious was what Mo Juqi did later, so that Xu Zhijie, the chief soldier guarding Jiangnan, regarded him as a big problem and a cancer.

"Mr. Xu, what did this Mo Juqi do later?"

Facing Gu Panxi, who was concentrating, Xu Zhijie couldn't raise his head a little, he hesitated for a moment before replying: "He dragged the Jinling prefect into the water." ”

"Jinling Prefect?!"

Gu Panxi, who thought that Mo Juqi's backer Xu Zhijie had abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and that things would be smooth in the future, couldn't accept this sudden news. It turns out that behind Mo Juqi, there is also a backer, and it is precisely the local governor of Jinling, the prefect of Jinling.

Gu Panxi rubbed his temples and felt a little faint pain in his brain.

Xu Zhijie didn't seem to see Gu Panxi's ugly face, and continued: "Yu Zeshi, the prefect of Jinling, couldn't withstand the temptation of wealth provided by Mo Juqi, so he went along with him and complied with him. Today, Yu Zeshi, the prefect of Jinling, is Mo Juqi's biggest backer. The two of them secretly colluded and wantonly amassed wealth, which has become the biggest disaster in Jinling City! ”

Shi Feiqing's face sank.

Gu Panxi pinched his earlobe, thought for a while, and asked, "Mr. Xu, you should make it clear first, what does their secret collusion have to do with Rushuang Pavilion and the Hundred Flowers Banquet?" ”

Xu Zhijie said helplessly: "The actual boss of Rushuang Pavilion is also Mo Juqi. ”

"Huh?"

Gu Panxi's eyes widened, and for a while, he couldn't react.

"The boss of Rushuang Pavilion is also Mo Juqi?!"

"Exactly."

Xu Zhijie believes that speaking to this point is enough for Gu Panxi to understand what the shady scene he is talking about is going on.

Gu Panxi did fall into thought about this.

The boss of Yanyu Building is Mo Juqi, and the boss of Rushuang Pavilion is also Mo Juqi, these two Qinglou belong to the same boss, but they made a gambling agreement in the Hundred Flowers Banquet. Isn't this a man who uses his left hand and his right hand to guess the Ding shell?

What's even more bizarre is that Rushuang Pavilion planned a fake kidnapping against Jiawen, in order to win this bet......

Gu Panxi thought about it, but felt that there was only one reasonable explanation for this matter.

"Mr. Xu, could it be that behind the gambling of this Hundred Flowers Banquet, there are still people who have set up gambling handicaps?"

Xu Zhijie was really convinced by Gu Panxi, in such a short period of time, she was able to quickly understand everything and make correct inferences.

"Exactly. Madame was really attacked, and being rescued by them was also designed?

This thought

The head is really terrifying, but after careful consideration and deliberation, Gu Panxi feels that although this idea is terrifying, it is not very likely.

Even if Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi colluded with each other and could be a soil emperor in Jinling and be a prestige, it was impossible to calculate that Fei Qing and Gu Panxi would meet the flower boat that Jiawen was riding at that time.

Come to think of it, Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi's rescue of Jiawen was something that Mo Juqi had planned.

And Jiawen is still in the smoke and rain building, making this matter public in front of everyone, and at the cost of her innocence, calling on a group of pleasure seekers to protect her, it must be a variable that Mo Juqi never expected.

Thinking of this, Gu Panxi felt that Jiawen was even more interesting.

Shi Feiqing, who had been keeping a straight face, said something at this time that surprised both Xu Zhijie and Gu Panxi.

"That's it?"

Just so?

Listening to Shi Feiqing's words, it seems that Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi are not bad enough and rampant enough.

Shi Feiqing continued: "If what Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi did was nothing more than colluding with each other and secretly manipulating the market to make profits, according to the law, it would be a big crime, but it would not make Xu Zongbing so hateful." ”

Gu Panxi understood what he meant when he came over. Shi Feiqing said that Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi are evil, but they are not enough to make Xu Zhijie so jealous. In other words, since Xu Zhijie is so jealous of them now, it proves that Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi have done even more unforgivable things.

Xu Zhijie gritted his teeth and nodded, and replied: "As the Hou Ye said, this Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi also did even more unforgivable things, so that the lower officials thought that it was time to get rid of them. ”

"One of them."

Xu Zhijie clenched his fists and opened his mouth. Hearing his opening remarks, Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi were shocked.

One of them?

Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi have done more than one more unforgivable thing?

Xu Zhijie didn't seem to notice Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi's consternation, and said to himself: "The handicap funds that Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi used to support the underground gambling game were misappropriated from the funds allocated by the imperial court and were originally used to prevent flooding. Because of this, disaster prevention projects, which should have been put on the agenda at this time, have been repeatedly postponed. If there are no accidents, even if disaster prevention efforts are launched, I am afraid that we will cut corners due to lack of funds. This matter will surely cause endless disaster. ”

When Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi heard this, they both frowned and glared.

It's April now, and the flood season is approaching in the south of the Yangtze River, which is the time to prevent flooding. At this juncture, Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi embezzled disaster prevention funds and organized underground markets. In the future, if the flood disaster is serious because of their evil deeds, hundreds of people in the Jiangnan area will suffer, and their families will be ruined at least and people will be killed at worst......

Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi's behavior can be called madness.

Before Feiqing and Gu Panxi could calm down from their anger, Xu Zhijie threw out the second sin of Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi.

"Second, it's even more serious. Mo Juqi's wings gradually plumped, and his family's wealth became more and more abundant. In order to pass on this value from generation to generation, this shameless villain gave birth to an extremely arrogant idea - he is raising private soldiers and wants to protect his family fortune! ”

Shi Feiqing and Gu Panxi gasped, they really didn't expect this Mo Juqi to swell to such a point.

The two disaster prevention silver allocated by the greedy Mo court have been punished according to the law. But raising private soldiers is even more serious! Civilians support their own troops, but they are all regarded as rebellion, which is a big crime of the Nine Clans!

No wonder, no wonder even Xu Zhijie, as the chief soldier of Jiangnan, can't help but be so jealous of Mo Juqi and Yu Zeshi. These two people, as if they were relying on the mountains and the emperor to be far away, gave birth to the idea of being the emperor of the soil!
