Chapter 196

A person's career will encounter various crises, such as a difficult and suspicious boss, a colleague who is keen to dump the blame with bad intentions, and a companion who stands by and watches the fall of the well at a critical time, etc. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

Today, Zhou Hong encountered the crisis of being pushed out by his colleagues to fight the thunder.

Fu Jin had been floating in the court for half his life, and when he saw that Zhou Hong had signs of escaping, he refused to pick up his stubble, and took advantage of Emperor Wei's good mood to simply open his mouth to report to Emperor Wei: "Your Majesty, Weichen and Lord Zhou came today to have something to play to Your Majesty." After successfully attracting the attraction of Emperor Wei, he threw out the thunder: "Qin Qi committed suicide in his cell in fear of crime, and he has already died!" ”

Emperor Wei's face became angry: "...... I knew that it was not good for Fu Qing to come! ”

Fu Jin didn't want to eat melons alone, so he hurriedly dragged Zhou Hong into the water: "Weichen is derelict in his duties, please forgive your majesty!" Master Zhou has been diligent in investigating the case recently, in addition to reading the files, or going to the Qin family's house to investigate, he often goes to the cell to interrogate Qin Qi. After Qin Qi committed suicide, Wechen quickly investigated the last person who saw him, except for the jailer, it was Lord Zhou, Wechen was very curious about what Lord Zhou said to Qin Qi? ”

I've seen shamelessness, but I've never seen such blatant framing.

Emperor Wei's suspicion was extremely serious, which was well known to the dynasty. If Fu Jin opened his mouth and bit out Zhou Hong, saying that he had forced Qin Qi to death, Emperor Wei would probably not believe it, but he vaguely pointed the finger at Zhou Hong, with the depth of Emperor Wei's thoughts, it was normal to suspect him.

Things in the world are like this, and I am not afraid of seeing it with my own eyes, but I am afraid of speculation for no reason.

Regardless of whether Zhou Hong was the last to see Qin Qi or not, Fu Jin would have sufficient evidence to prove it.

His trick of golden cicada shelling is beautiful.

Emperor Wei's original anger towards him was easily diverted by Zhou Hong. Sure enough, Emperor Wei's expression turned a little colder, and his gaze turned to Zhou Hong: "Can you please ask Zhou Qing to tell me what he said when Qing and Qin Qi met for the last time?" ”

Zhou Hong usually went to see Qin Qi in the prison cell, and did not ask him how he had established an orderly private salt market over the years, or where the huge amount of money from salt sales had gone, and always talked about something else.

For example, let's talk about things when I was a child.

Both of them were born in high-ranking families, but Zhou Hong is the eldest son of the main house, with a noble status, and he has known that he has a heavy responsibility since he was a child, so Chang Zhouzhen did not complain when he was thrown into the camp and beaten, and he persevered.

But Qin Qi is the younger brother of the Qin Mansion, and the identity of his own grandmother cannot be put on the stage, and the person in this house will never raise his head in front of the main house. He talked about the days he spent as a child in his old house.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ When I was a child, my cousins stumbled on me, openly and secretly scolding me for not being able to get on the stage, and my sister in the grandmother's room would not look at me, as if any more glance would dirty her eyes. Later, there was a crown princess in the family, and she sent a lot of things to the East Palace every year, and she wished that one person would attain the Tao in the future and the chicken dog would ascend to heaven. However, in the eyes of our house, I'm afraid it's not as good as a chicken dog! ”

Zhou Hong summed it up that he was bullied by the main house when he was a child, and when he grew up, he wanted to raise his eyebrows in front of the grandson. There is no way to suppress the main house in the study and test fame, even if you really win the Jinshi, the family connections must still be holding the brother of the house, and it is good to drink some leftover soup behind the brother of the house.

Qin Qi didn't want to be a follower of the children of the Yanzhi for the rest of his life, so he finally took a shortcut and started doing business, wanting to let the Yanfang live his existence financially.

He also took the right path at first, but the annual income could not reach the goal of letting the concubine go sideways, let alone treat him differently, so he took risks...... began to sell illicit salt, and went farther and farther on this road.

Qin Qi is almost the same age as Zhou Hong, and Zhou Hong has a calm temperament of a soldier, which makes him willing to tell Zhou Hong stories in his last days.

He was attentive, Zhou Hong listened carefully, came out of the cell and patted the ashes on his body, and sealed Qin Qi's story, as if he had never heard it.

In life, there is more suffering than joy.

However, a person of true noble character will not step on countless innocent people to climb up.

Qin Qi has become his ambitious Qin family's house brother, and he can also make a lot of money to choke the economic destiny of the Qin Mansion, which is irrelevant, but he colluded with the Salt Gang to raise the price of salt, forcing countless ordinary people to not afford salt, which is unforgivable.

Selling illicit salt is also risky, and if the price is too low, the profit will not be enough. The advantage of the collusion between officials, businessmen and bandits lies in the fact that on the surface, the official salt is set by the government, which sounds fair and just, but in fact, the officials and bandits are close to each other, deliberately raising the price of official salt, and then selling illegal salt that is lower than the official salt price, and the sales of illegal salt are almost imaginable.

When he came out of the cell of Dali Temple, Qin Qi's words were still echoing in his mind: "...... This life is the most important thing
