Chapter 211: The Fan Family's Background

The two hundred brocade guards who came to Shanxi in advance were guards, and Li Mu rushed to the door of the Fan family's old mansion when the sky was bright. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The sun was only showing one side, and there was a faint humidity in the air near winter.

Li Mu, who turned over and dismounted, stepped into this one of the best mansions in the Jin Dynasty in the welcome of the brocade guards guarding the front door of the Fan family's old mansion.

The greeting in front of the main gate naturally alarmed the Jinyi guards in the courtyard, as the person in charge of arresting the Fan family, the captain of this team of Jinyi guards.

As soon as the voice of the brocade guard sounded at the door, he walked quickly towards Li Mulai's road, and said respectfully when he got closer.

"I have seen the commander of the commanding officer, all the personnel of the Fan family's old mansion have been arrested, and no one has escaped."

"Well, very well, let's take this seat to meet these criminals." Li Mu nodded, and let Jinyi Wei Baihu lead the way in front.

Go and meet these Fan family members who are guarding the Fan family's old house.

These members of the Fan family, who were concentrated in the courtyard to take care of, had long since lost the appearance of the rich children of the past after a night of hunger and cold.

They all huddled together because of the cold of the night, warming each other.

What's more, they are crowded among the slaves who are also guarding the courtyard, hoping for even a trace of warmth.

In this way, because of the frightened thoughts of the night, I couldn't sleep, and my eyes beat slightly and my head drooped unconsciously.

The eyes of sober people are full of panic about the future, they don't know what fault the Fan family has made, so they suddenly fall into the sky.

actually let Jinyiwei find the door of the mansion.

Li Mu, under the leadership of this hundred households, went to the front yard of the Fan family's old mansion and saw more than 100 people in the courtyard who were guarded by Jinyi Guard.

Men, women, and children, all knelt in the courtyard, their eyes full of fear.

When they saw Li Mu, who was dressed in a bright yellow flying fish suit, walked over the huge shadow back and walked into the courtyard, everyone was obviously stunned, and then their expressions tightened.

"The lowly rank has seen the commander."

The captain of the Jinyi Guard, who was guarding the Fan family, saw Li Mu's arrival and immediately bowed down to greet him.

Li Mu waved his hand, signaling the surrounding Jinyi Guard captains to perform their duties, and they didn't need to be courteous, so they glanced at the large number of Fan family members.

"Baihu, everyone is here?"

Jinyi Wei Baihu took a step forward and said respectfully: "Back to the commander, last night the lowly count was completed, and the people who lived in the old mansion of the Fan family were put on the case, including one hundred and thirty maidservants and forty-six members of the Fan family. ”

After speaking, the brocade-clothed guard pointed to the crowd in the courtyard and said, "There are a total of one hundred and seventy-six commanders, all of whom are here. ”

"Well, what's going on with the dirty case?" Li Mu didn't care too much about how many members of the Fan family were arrested, what he cared about was how much the Fan family had in the old mansion.

"Lord Hui Commander, the lowly rank has found a total of 5 million taels of silver, 100,000 taels of gold, more than 20,000 pieces of antique calligraphy and painting books, and more than 40 boxes of various colored jewelry."

The hundreds of households in Jinyi and Wei slowly reported that they counted the family property from the Fan family's old house overnight.

After listening to the report of the hundred households, Li Mu frowned, no matter what else, just talking about the cash silver, he didn't believe that the Fan family only had this bit of silver.

Shanxi Lao Li is not in vain, it is not that Li Mu is black, but that people here have the habit of burying money in the house, and the Fan family has been doing business since the early years of the Ming Dynasty.

For more than 200 years, only more than 5 million taels of cash were saved, and Li Mu didn't believe it too much.

The Jinyi Wei Baihu, who was standing on the side, noticed Li Muwei's frowning brows, and thought about whether there was a mistake in the counting, so he hurriedly said respectfully.

"My lord, if you don't humble yourself, you will be tortured again."

After speaking, he walked towards the Fan family who were in custody, as if they were going to eat people.

And Li Mu didn't have any intention of stopping him, he also wanted to see if the Fan family still had any silver, and whether it was really as it was said on TV.

To deal with such a person, it is necessary to use some means to squeeze to the death, so that everything can be pulled out of the mouth.

Just when Li Mu was thinking about whether the Fan family still had any hidden silver, an old and silent question came from the crowd.

"This young commander is clumsy, I don't know which Lord Jinyi Wei in the capital came to the old mansion of the Fan family, and the Fan family also has old friends with many members of the capital court."

This passage in the crowd aroused Li Mu's curiosity, and when he saw Baihu hesitantly turning around, he waved his hand to stop.

Li Mu stepped forward a few steps and saw clearly that the owner of the old and withered voice was a gray-haired old woman kneeling on the bluestone slab.

The old man's face was ruddy, and his eyes were gray and glowing with perseverance.

Seeing that it was an old woman, Li Mu waved his hand to bring a chair and sit down for the old woman, after all, respecting the old and loving the young is a traditional Chinese virtue.

Li Mu thought that he was still a good young man, although he really wanted the other party to kneel and talk like this.

That's just thinking about it.

Finding a chair for the old woman to sit on is just to let the other party enjoy the last leisure, so that there will not be too many regrets in life.

With the support of the two maids of the Fan family, the old woman sat on the chair slowly, looked at Li Mu with cloudy eyes, and said.

"I don't know what sins my Fan family has committed with this Lord Jinyiwei from the capital, as for letting your Jinyiwei men slam the door overnight, it really makes my Fan family sleep."

"My Fan family has an old relationship with several senior officials in the capital, and I think I can explain it to the adults a few times, even if these can't explain the innocence of the Fan family to the adults, the Fan family also knows a few fathers-in-law in the palace."

The old woman sitting on the chair, her words were plain, but she also revealed the courage of her youth.

And Li Mu smiled, he didn't expect to raid a house and destroy a door, but he encountered a hard stubble, which was the first time in his life, so that an old woman was calmly threatened with him in his words.

looked at the Fan family who was in a commotion because of the old woman's words, although they were still kneeling on the ground, there was a hint of hope for reversal in their eyes.

After all, among these Fan family members, the current Jinyiwei is not as good as before, not to mention, the eunuchs of the East Factory they know are stronger than Jinyiwei.

As long as the father-in-law of Dongchang says a few words, these brocade guards will not immediately retreat, it is nothing more than to let the Fan family spend some money, has the Fan family spent less bribes on the court in recent years?

In the eyes of the Fan family, silver can be channeled.

Thinking of the Fan family here, although they are still kneeling on the ground, their eyes are no longer afraid of the Jinyi guards around them, as if all the rich and noble lives have returned, and some kneeling numb people also dare to move their bodies to change their postures.
