At first glance, I heard that something suddenly happened to Yunshui Embroidery Village, and there were many people outside the gate. Watching the excitement and watching the excitement, the curious curiosity, and the discussion is non-stop.
There was originally a grass shed in the open space not far from Meng's house, and the people of the yamen were standing around the shed at this time.
Wu Dajiang sat under the shed and kept fanning the wind, waiting impatiently, got up and slapped the table in front of him, and hurriedly put it to his mouth and blew and patted his sore hands.
"You say! Master, I just made a drink and dinner with Boss Meng yesterday, chatting all over the world, seeing that the friendship is good, and the government and business are harmonious, I will start to check people today! Who's sick?! Am I ruthless, sir? ”
The scribe hurriedly reassured: "My lord, didn't you find anything yesterday? This time and that time! Besides, what Mr. Song said is very reasonable, which will greatly help you to get promoted and make a fortune! ”
Wu Dajiang stood up again, looking at the tightly closed red lacquer gate of the Meng family with his hands behind his back.
The scribe said: "If there is really something wrong with the Meng family, it will be a great merit to find out, and the merits of the adults will be full immediately!" Why don't you worry about moving in the coming year?! ”
Wu Dajiang stroked his beard, his face was full of red light.
After a while, Wu Dajiang looked at the gate of Yunshui Embroidery Village and flicked his sleeves uncontrollably, and said sharply: "This Meng family really has a big problem!" Mr. Song was right! I won't even let in the gate! Yesterday, Meng Yuanzhou also toasted to the master and me, and wanted to invite me to come a few more times! ”
One of them said: "My lord, they are guilty and weak-hearted, so they will not let them in!" ”
"My lord, drink another cup of herbal tea and calm down!" An older scribe said respectfully.
"! I've had three pots of tea! I'm almost full! Wu Dajiang shook his sleeves and knocked on the scribe's head a few times.
"Why hasn't Mr. Song come yet?!" Wu Dajiang asked again about the catch.
The catcher tiptoed and glanced at the road on the other side, "Back to the master, it should be back soon!" Mr. Song said that he just went home to have a look, and he couldn't delay too much time! ”
As soon as the words fell, the guards outside immediately replied, "Master, Mr. Song is here!" ”
Song Ju'an walked in from the crowd on the other side and saluted Wu Dajiang.
"Mr. Song, you came just in time, if you don't come for a while, the official's heart is like an ant on a hot pot, the yamen has sent a catcher to the embroidery village to check before, but nothing has been found, but now he is not allowed to enter! Shut out all the people of the yamen! "Wu Dajiang Road.
"They have been prepared for a long time, so naturally they can't find anything." Song Ju'an said.
"So what to do? Come, sit down. ”
Song Ju'an sat down and said: "Yesterday, Han Liang followed the adults into the villa, and found that there were people mining and smelting iron on the west side of the villa, that is, next to the mountain. ”
Wu Dajiang listened excitedly, "Then report it as soon as possible!" Don't let them go! Wait a minute, just let these catchers bang on the door and get in! ”
"Don't worry, adults, even if they destroy the evidence now, they will leave clues, let people stay outside the embroidery village first, and save them from escaping." Song Ju'an turned his head and glanced at the seven or eight catchers brought by Wu Dajiang, they couldn't stand anything at all, let alone break in.
Wu Dajiang nodded again and again.
"But......" he hesitated again.
"But what?" Wu Dajiang felt that his current mood was changing with Song Ju'an's tone.
That time, when his Qingyang Temple was handling the case, he asked the monk inside to give him a fortune, and the monk told him that the official luck was smooth. I didn't expect something to pave the way for him soon!
"I just learned that Meng Yuanzhou and Wei Guogong have a relationship, my lord ......"
Wu Dajiang's face turned white in an instant, and his face that was grinning just now seemed to be a 'bitter' word, and he quickly got up from his chair and said in a panic: "Why didn't you say it earlier?!" The Meng family is connected with the Duke of Wei?! It's over, it's over! Now the official is dead, I actually kicked the board of Wei Guogong! ”
"What an adult is afraid of, no matter who the person behind him is, he has always committed a crime."
Wu Dajiang couldn't help shaking his head, and said to him seriously: "Mr. Song doesn't know how to be an official, this official protects each other, but this official and businessman also protects it, if I move the Meng family, wouldn't I be hammered to death by Wei Guogong!" ”
"My lord, I have also thought about this matter carefully, this matter is big and spread, it is not good for Wei Guogong, besides, how can Wei Guogong bend the law for personal gain? Also, there are few people in the yamen, and there are many martial arts thugs hidden in the Mengjia embroidery village, we must not break through, we must rely on the strength of others to do this well, and adults can be promoted. ”
"You say! Say it! ”
"Find Wei Guogong's opponent, General Gao He, and ask him to send someone to help investigate." Song Ju'an said.
Wu Dajiang's eyes lit up, and then he shook his head: "No, this official has a humble official position, where can he get a tall general who is stationed in Qingcheng in the southwest!" ”
"How do you know if you don't give it a try, the adults write a letter and ask people to send it over quickly, and in a few days, someone will be sent over there, since you have offended the Meng family now, what are you afraid of."
"Good...... You think about the rhetoric for the official, how to write it well! ”
After guarding outside the Yunshui Embroidery Village for a while, a few catchers went to knock on the door of the Embroidery Village, but no one responded inside, let alone opened the door.
Wu Dajiang was very upset and irritable, so he ordered people to guard the gate according to what Song Ju'an said, patrolling back and forth, and he took people back to the yamen.
Song Ju'an discussed some things with Wu Dajiang again, and when he came out of the yamen, it was already late, and there were not many pedestrians on the street.
Lord Wu left him to live in the yamen, but Song Ju'an did not agree.
He first went to the pharmacy and bought some medicine for the wound. I walked into an inn and went up to the second floor, and when I got to the end, I opened the door.
Han Liang was lying on the bed, and when he saw him coming, he shouted, "Master! You're finally here! It's going to be dark soon, and I thought you weren't coming! ”
"How's this wound on you?" Song Ju'an put the medicine down and asked.
"It's okay, I can't die! It has rough skin and thick meat! ”
"That's good, lie down and recuperate, it is estimated that it will take a long time to recover."
"Master, what's going on over there at the yamen? I didn't expect them to hollow out the mountains! There are a lot of people guarding in the bamboo forest, and there are people everywhere in the villa, no matter day or night, I can't enter the villa, but fortunately, yesterday the master let me follow Lord Wu as a guard of the county government to blend in! ”
"There is such a big thing in the small Fengling County, Wei Guogong, you can take him with you this time!" Song Ju'an lifted his robe and sat down.
"What is the master going to do next?" Han Liang asked.
"This matter may not have anything to do with Wei Guogong, but it is bound to involve him, it can be regarded as my return gift to the fifth prince, hasn't he been restraining Wei Guogong?"
"Wei Guogong is Concubine Rou's father-in-law......" Han Liang reminded very unconfidently.
Song Ju'an's expression did not change, and he sneered: "That's right, pull him up!" Mining and smelting iron is not terrible, if it is smelting and building weapons and selling, then there is a crime of plotting against the enemy. ”
Han Liang was shocked for a long time and didn't react.
"Then the Meng family can't survive up and down?"
"That's nature."
Han Liang felt in a trance that he had returned to the past, and saw the shadow of that time from his master.
"I will write another letter anonymously, and hand over this letter to Gao He before Wu Dajiang sends the letter to Qingcheng, I don't know if I can catch up." He rolled up his sleeves, laid out paper and ink, sat at the table, and the dragon and snake swam away.
"We need some support from above." Han Liang said, otherwise, these shrimp soldiers and crabs in the yamen will be helpless to take those guards of Xiuzhuang.
"Hmm."
Han Liang lay there and continued to sigh: "No wonder Yunshui Embroidery Village is so big, after I sneaked in, I walked back and forth many times but couldn't find a way out, the Meng family was bound to be planted this time, openly confronting the government, I'm afraid I don't want to die faster......"
In the past few days, the people of the yamen have been running around for a long time, first checking the shops in the city, and then inquiring and investigating the fields and properties purchased by the Meng family. There are also a group of people who stick to the outside of Yunshui Embroidery Village day and night to prevent the people inside from coming out.
However, things seem to be going exceptionally well, and some people secretly handed over some evidence to the government.
I don't know if I don't check, I was shocked when I checked it, the wealth of the Meng family was like a floe ice at the beginning, everyone only knew that the Meng family was rich in business, but when they got a glimpse of the whole picture, they found that the Meng family had countless money, not to mention how much gold and silver were hidden in the embroidery village!
It's just surprising that a large part of the farm shops and Zhuangzi have changed hands in the past six months, and the owners have exchanged for silver.
Song Ju'an saw these recorded things, and faintly felt bad in his heart, and hurriedly asked Wu Dajiang to order a few catchers to climb the wall and enter Yunshui Embroidery Village to see if the people inside had already fled with the money!
Unexpectedly, the few people who climbed in were thrown out of it in the blink of an eye, and at the same time, the door of the embroidery village finally opened.
Ming Se walked out of it with two guards with an indifferent expression, glanced around the gate, and said to the people of the official mansion: "Don't worry, not only will we not leave, but we will also confess our guilt and be punished, but ...... I want you to bring someone to me. ”
"Who?" A fast track.
Another catcher snapped up and said, "Don't think! What do you ask for when you are dying! ”
Ming Se smiled slightly, and continued: "I want to see a woman in Donggou Village, surnamed Du, called Du Ruo, and her husband's surname is Song, called Song Ju'an. ”
"What did you see her do?! That woman wouldn't know the secret of the embroidery village or something, would she?! Catcher asked.
"She doesn't know anything, but I want to ask her something, and if you are willing to bring her to me, the door of the embroidery village will naturally open for the people from the yamen to enter." Mincer said.
A few catchers glanced at each other, not knowing whether what she said was true or false, everyone was full of doubts, and someone hurriedly ran to send a message to Wuxian Ling.
On the second day of Du Ruo's stay at home, someone from the county government came to give her fifty taels of silver, and she was horrified when she got the silver, did Song Ju'an sell himself!
She was anxious in her heart, and she always asked Wang Pozi about the situation of Yunshui Embroidery Village, one moment it was the great crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the other time it was smuggling goods with several countries in the south that did not trade with her, and she said that she was smelting iron privately...... But the news didn't spread so quickly, and she was shocked and misty when she heard it.
On September 16, Du Ruo finally couldn't help it and took the silver he earned to Qingyang Temple.
The silver couldn't be kept by her side, and if she left, the Cai family would definitely rummage through her package, so she asked Master Zhenluo to help her keep it for the time being.
After coming out of Qingyang Temple, she went to Gunan Town again.
Today is Meng Xiuwen's birthday, and what adults do has nothing to do with children. Regardless of whether Meng Yuanzhou is a bad person or not, or whether he did the rumored things, Meng Xiuwen is innocent.
I don't know how he is now, yesterday fifteen, he couldn't wait for his mother to cry his nose and be wronged? Did you make trouble with Meng Yuanzhou to find his mother?
She knew early on that he would be disappointed, but she always felt a little distressed when she thought about it.
Du Ruo walked on the street and inquired about the Meng family, and felt that it was incredible, such a big change had taken place in just seven or eight days.
What surprised her even more was that since this incident happened, Meng Yuanzhou had never come forward again, closed the door of Xiuzhuang, and did not let anyone in, as if he was fighting against the government and rebelling.
How could such a calm man do such a thing? If it was really done, how could it be handled in such a way?
It's really puzzling.
When she passed by Brother Lu's business stall, she didn't pay attention because she was preoccupied, but Brother Lu stopped her.
"Du Niangzi, are you here again?" Brother Lu said with a smile.
Du Ruo stopped, turned to look at him, and said with a smile: "Thank you for what happened last time." ”
"Thanks what! Didn't Du Niangzi pay me back! It's just ......," he said hesitantly, "Although I don't know why Du Niangzi wants you to divorce you, but he seems to be a good person, and he knows how to protect you, you have to think about it!" ”
Du Ruo smiled, "I know." ”
She tilted her head slightly and looked at the honeysuckle building not far away.
The honeysuckle building still stands tall in the sky, dazzling in the sun. Even standing here, she could immediately imagine the sparkle of gold and sparkle in the building.
Du Ruo suddenly remembered the boss Qin Rui inside.
Isn't she going to marry Meng Yuanzhou soon? Something happened to the Meng family, can she be left alone? What is she doing at this point?
Du Ruo thought in his heart, so he raised his feet and walked in the direction of the honeysuckle building.
When she passed by the clay figurine stall, she bought a few clay figurines and some fine from the street. Candy, if Qin Rui is willing, Du Ruo hopes that she can bring these food and play to Meng Xiuwen.
When she arrived at the honeysuckle building, she looked up at the hot stamping plaque hanging on it, as she had done last time.
It's still golden, but it's like a layer of dust.
After Du Ruo walked in, a guy immediately greeted him, "What does the guest officer want to buy?!" ”
"I'll take a look at it." She said, "Is your boss here today?" ”
"The boss is on the third floor, if you look for her, I'll shout!" The guy hurriedly said.
"No need, I'll go up later!" Du Ruo also hurriedly said, today's guy seems to be a lot more diligent.
Du Ruo started to look from the first floor, and all he saw was the golden light and dazzling pearls, and then went up to the second floor after looking around. After finishing on the second floor, she walked up the stairs again.
While walking, she thought that Qin Rui probably couldn't look down on this little thing she was taking, but she promised to give Meng Xiuwen a gift at that time, and if there was a small thing on the third floor that could be bought for ten taels, she would rather grit her teeth and buy it, and there was really no way to pick it out.
Stepping into the third floor from the last step, as soon as Du Ruo stepped into the hall, he was surprised to see Song Ju'an sitting next to Qin Rui.
He held a glass of wine in his hand, leaning there obliquely, his expression was high, and his eyes were even more arrogant.
