Chapter 383: Presumptuous
At this time, a small servant of the Luo family hurriedly came from outside, breaking the strange atmosphere, "Master, a person named Brother Cai came outside, saying that he wanted to see you, and he also said...... Say ......"
The little guy didn't dare to continue.
Luo Ya sighed in his heart, Brother Cai must be no good when he comes, and he was about to let the little guy send Brother Cai away, when he heard Yang Fangzheng's loud voice ringing in the hall, "A house slave, you still want to deceive your master, what to say, say!" ”
"This ......" the little guy looked at Luo Ya in embarrassment, "this ......"
Yang Fangzheng glanced at Luo Ya coldly, full of shock.
The latter wiped the cold sweat from his forehead again, and spouted, "That...... That...... Tell me about ......"
The little guy also wiped his sweat, "Master, the person who calls himself Brother Cai said that it is a matter of course to repay debts, even if you are the prefect, you have to be reasonable." ”
Luo Ya almost forgot that Brother Cai brought people to the door yesterday, and was thinking about how to send people away, when he heard Yang Fangzheng say, "Bring people in, this official wants to see who dares to be so presumptuous and dare to slander our prefect." ”
Luo Ya gave the little guy a hard look, signaling him not to bring anyone in.
"What's wrong with your eyes, is it an eye disease? It's okay, here is Doctor Mu Jiu, let her help you take a good look. ”
Yang Fangzheng's words successfully frightened Luo Ya, and Luo Ya turned his head and drank with little confidence, "Don't go quickly!" ”
"Yes!" The little guy shuddered and withdrew.
After a while, Brother Cai was brought in.
What is embarrassing is that Brother Cai actually restrained his usual murderous aura, bowed his head and hunched his back, and his appearance was treated by Yu Gui, which was very ordinary, making people completely unthinkable that he was the boss of the dark forces in Maicheng.
The faces of the heads of the families are different, as authentic Maicheng people, they know too well what Brother Cai is, some have the psychology of watching a good show, some hope that Brother Cai will be unlucky, and more hope that Luo Ya will be unlucky.
Brother Cai only gave Yang Fangzheng a salute, and then explained the things one by one slowly, and took out the contract signed with the person in charge.
The more Yang Fangzheng listened, the colder his face became, and he squinted at Luo Ya coldly, "What do you have to say?" ”
Luo Ya quibbled, "Your Excellency the Governor, this man is a cancer in our wheat city, he is slandering his subordinates, you can't trust him. ”
Brother Cai raised his head and glanced at Luo Ya with the same ferocity, as if to say: You dare to say another word, Lao Tzu will destroy you.
Luo Ya was afraid of Yang Fangzheng and Brother Cai, and under the double fear, he felt that he was about to collapse.
Yang Fangzheng read the contract seriously and shouted, "Ridiculous! As a prefect, you don't want to do business properly, do you think you want to use your position to use your power for personal gain? ”
"No...... No! Luo Ya hurriedly denied it, "Xia Guan definitely didn't use his power for personal gain, but Xia Guan was too poor, so he wanted to do a small business to make some extra money." ”
"Since it's a small business, why did you take such a big order, do you want to get the money, use the identity of the prefect to press and not give medicinal materials, empty gloves white wolf!"
"Nope!" Luo Ya was so frightened that he left the table and knelt down, shouting in his heart: Uncle, come and save me!
"How do you explain this contract?" Yang Fangzheng deliberately made things difficult, "Come on, go and invite the person in charge of their workshop, today the official will personally interrogate this matter!" ”
Luo Ya is still lucky that the person in charge is in Lixian, and he won't be able to come for a while, as long as he sees the person in charge before Yang Fangzheng, he has a way to make the person in charge obedient.
But without waiting for Yang Fangzheng's people to go out, the person in charge walked in under the leadership of several people, first saluted Yang Fangzheng and Luo Ya, and then said, "Lord Governor, Lord Luo has done dirty things, Cao Mintong informed." ”
As he spoke, he handed Yang Fangzheng a notebook, which densely recorded Luo Ya's crime of using his power to oppress the medicine farmers, and there were many paintings of the medicine farmers on it.
The more Yang Fangzheng looked, the more ugly his face became.
Luo Ya only saw Yang Fangzheng's face getting worse and worse on the side, he couldn't see the content of the book, his heart was so weak that he couldn't wait to grow a pair of eyes that could turn to see the content on it.
turned around and glared at the person in charge fiercely: Look at how I clean you up when I turn around!
The person in charge was so frightened that he hurriedly ran away, but Yang Fangzheng was beside him, and begged with a crying voice, "Lord Governor, help, the grass people didn't dare to take care of Lord Luo's affairs, but they really couldn't bear to see so many medicine farmers being oppressed by him, so they risked their lives to report it, and now that he has offended Lord Luo, he will definitely retaliate in the future, Lord Governor, help!" ”
Yang Fangzheng put down his notebook and appeased the person in charge, "Don't worry, the official can still call the shots in this matter!" ”
The person in charge kowtowed three times, "Thank you so much, sir!" ”
When Luo Ya heard what the person in charge said, he probably guessed what was written in the notebook, and hurriedly ran to Yang Fangzheng and knelt down, "Lord Yang, this guy is the person in charge of my medicinal herb acquisition point, he is lazy and lazy on weekdays, and he doesn't know how many shady things he has done in my name behind my back, you can't listen to his words!" Maybe that contract is that he and Brother Cai teamed up to calculate me! ”
The person in charge timidly retorted, "No, how dare I do anything without your orders, many times I don't want to harm those medicine farmers, but you take me to go, if I don't go, you will lock me up and send me to the frontier on the charge of embezzlement!" ”
Roya died and did not admit it, "You lied! I don't, I'm the prefect, how can I know the law and break the law! ”
The person in charge had already contradicted Luo Ya once, so he simply let it go, let go of his voice and said, "I can invite all the ordinary people out to confront them, and you personally threatened them at the beginning, saying that they would not sell medicinal materials to you at a low price, so you can find a name to put them all in prison, otherwise you will be exiled to the frontier!" ”
"Nonsense, they must have benefited from you, nonsense, what I haven't done is nothing!" Luo Ya was red-faced, he knew very well that if the evidence was conclusive, Yang Fangzheng had the right to dispose of him.
Uncle or something, far water can't save the near fire, and if my uncle wants to pull him up again, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult, and what's even more unfortunate is that it's even difficult to clear his name.
Luo Ya glared at the person in charge vigorously, as if he wanted to stare out of a hole in him, but to no avail, the person in charge hid to Yang Fangzheng's side, "Lord Governor, help, look at him, he glared at me, as if he wanted to eat me, I was afraid, usually he asked me to go to the pit medicine farmer to stare at me like this!" ”
Yang Fangzheng shouted at Luo Ya, "Presumptuous! ”
Luo Ya also felt that Yang Fangzheng was talking about the person in charge, and raised his eyebrows at the person in charge, "Did you hear it, presumptuous!" ”
Yang Fangzheng threw the notebook in Luo Ya's face, "It's you!" ”
Luo Ya was stunned, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, picked up the notebook and took a look, his legs were so frightened that he almost knelt unsteadily, "Big ...... My lord...... These...... It's all ...... slandered ...... "I really wanted to tear the book off, but I didn't dare to hide the book behind me in front of Yang Fangzheng."
Seeing this, Yang Fangzheng snorted, and the entourage he brought immediately took the notebook back.
The person in charge whispered, "The Governor can go to the medicine farmer who drew the prison to confront him, these are all true!" ”
Yang Fangzheng looked at Luo Ya with a cold gaze, "What do you say!" ”
"This ...... Those medicine farmers...... They must have been bought by him...... Yes, they were all bought by him! ”
"Wait......" Brother Cai, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, "Your Excellency Governor, let me say a word." ”
Yang Fangzheng: "Say! ”
Brother Cai lowered his head, "What the person in charge said is true, because the grass people also do the purchase business of medicinal materials, in previous years, the medicinal materials were told to the medicine farmers before the harvest, and the medicinal materials were purchased after they were collected, but after the prefect set up the purchase point, I could no longer receive the medicinal materials.
I didn't know it at the time and was very angry, I quarreled with the medicine farmer, we agreed on the price, and gave the deposit, but you sold the medicine to others for a high price.
But the medicine farmer told me that the price was less than half of the price I gave, but if I didn't give it, the prefect would arrest him and charge him indiscriminately, and send him to the frontier as a coolie.
At that time, the medicine farmer returned the deposit to me, and I thought it would not be easy for them, so I didn't pursue it, and went to buy the medicinal herbs that the prefect bought at a low price and came out at a high price. Who knew that he actually took my deposit, and he didn't give me the medicinal materials, I am also a person who is old and young, so I have to give me a way to live!
I really can't help it, I heard that the Governor has arrived in Maicheng, so I came desperately to complain, just to survive! Your Excellency the Governor is going to call the shots for us, the people who have been trapped! ”
Brother Cai said, and glanced at Luo Ya from time to time, as if he was very afraid of him.
Yang Fangzheng looked even more angry, "Luo Ya, you say it yourself!" ”
"I didn't ...... No...... ...... They slandered me! Certain...... They must be jealous that I am a prefect, they are commoners, jealous of me, and find a way to slander me, yes, that's it. ”
Yang Fangzheng casually picked up a silver bowl and smashed it at Luo Ya's feet, "Why do they all want to slander you, why doesn't anyone come to slander me!" It's clear that you have a problem with your character! Come on, I'll go and invite the medicine farmer overnight, this matter must be investigated! ”
"Big ...... My lord, why don't you rest for the night...... Whatever will be solved tomorrow will be fine. Luo Ya thought to himself, as long as it dragged on for a night, he could coerce and lure those medicine farmers overnight, and things could still turn around.
But the person in charge suddenly said, "Your Excellency, I have invited all the medicine farmers, just outside the door, but there are too many people to stand here, do you want to move outside the door to take a look." ”
Several heads of the family looked at Brother Cai meaningfully, and then looked at the person in charge, and felt more and more that Brother Cai was terrible, all this was clearly his arrangement, except for him, who else could quietly arrange so many medicine farmers to enter the city without being discovered? It seems that you must not go against Brother Cai in the future.
