Deputy Envoy Kong looked very uneasy, he knew that many of these people who came were the hardcore of the businessmen, and their relationship was more iron than himself, and it was difficult to guarantee that no one would stand up for the businessmen, and he had already beaten the businessmen into that way, and under the torture of the tricks, he was about to turn this case into an iron case. Who knew that something had happened at this time.

He glanced at Xu Qian, but Xu Qian was calm, and said to Zhang Qianhu and him: "Since there are so many adults here, shouldn't we go out to greet them?" ”

The three of them went to the middle gate together, and sure enough, they saw many adults coming, the errands of the various ya, the officials and the army were bustling, first the political envoys, then the chief military officers, and then the civil and military dignitaries, and the big men of the Hangzhou officialdom coincidentally appeared here.

Wang Mingchuan, the political envoy, walked side by side with the chief military officer, Xu Qian and Deputy Envoy Kong hurriedly went to see the salute, Wang Mingchuan glanced at Xu Qian complicatedly, then smiled, and said enthusiastically: "Excuse me, excuse me, the official already knows about the matter here, what, is the evidence conclusive?" ”

Deputy Envoy Kong hurriedly reported: "The human and material evidence is there, and the merchant has already confessed, and the merchant has done evil and is heinous." ”

Wang Mingchuan immediately said angrily: "Hmph, it's really unreasonable, after the merchant is a famous family, when Gong Wen Yi was there, he was also clean and virtuous, I didn't expect my descendants to be so unscrupulous." As a provincial governor, this official was almost deceived by them. Why, why don't you mention the Criminal Division and take people? ”

Deputy Envoy Kong breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Chun'an is far away from here, and the Criminal Department is only afraid of insufficient manpower, they are poor men who collude with the Japanese Invaders, and the lower officials are afraid of startling the snakes." ”

Wang Mingchuan smiled coldly, and then his eyes fell on the chief military officer of Zhejiang.

This Zhejiang's highest military attache was burly, and said indignantly: "There are such evil thieves in the territory, and this official doesn't know it, and I'm afraid that I can't hold them by relying on the officers of the Criminal Department alone." I'll send a battalion of men and horses with you to the Punishment Division to get people. ”

At this time, the rest of the adults also arrived, and they were all very indignant at the merchant, and they only wanted to eat the merchant's flesh and drink the merchant's blood, but no one said a good word to the merchant.

Xu Qian understands in his heart that these people are the connections of the merchants, and if the connections are used well, they are naturally unimpeded, at least when they are safe and sound, these connections are enough for the merchants to be the king and hegemon in Zhejiang. No one dares to mess with it.

Once something happens, the network will become a fatal noose, after all, the merchant is too close to them on weekdays, just like this famous Lord Wang, who heard that something happened to the merchant. His first reaction was to try to preserve, after all, he usually accepts the benefits of merchants, and this bit of affection still has to be given.

However, when Lord Wang learned that the merchant was actually a great crime of colluding with the Japanese Kou, and it was said that he had also dispatched the Jinyi Guard to appear the Son of Heaven Imperial Sword, Lord Wang did not even hesitate, and immediately rushed over with people, and he ran here. Naturally, he didn't go to protect the Zhang family, but to kill people.

is similar to Lord Wang, these important people who came are worried about being bitten. The second is to draw a clear line with the business.

Deputy Envoy Kong glanced at Wang Mingchuan and said, "Then...... Xiaguan is going to Chun'an to get people? ”

Wang Mingchuan glanced at Deputy Envoy Kong deeply, and said with a flat face: "Go, remember." These are poor people, if they dare to resist. Don't worry about their family background, they should be killed, if they don't kill a few, how to deter Xiaoxiao? Collusion with the Japanese is a rebellion, and don't be polite to the thieves. ”

Deputy Envoy Kong nodded thoughtfully, and as if the subordinate understood the meaning, he hurriedly left.

The chief military officer of Zhejiang also sent an adjutant general and gave a few orders, and the deputy general nodded and left with Deputy Envoy Kong.

The next thing must be much easier, Xu Qian couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, these people in front of him were really more ruthless than Zhou Papi, worse than Huang Shiren. He has a grudge against the merchant, and if he doesn't bring down the merchant, the merchant beat his uncle and smashed his newspaper today, but as long as he doesn't give in to them, there may be a day when his house will be burned, so the two sides don't share the sky, either you die or I live, Xu Qian wants to kill the merchant, which is a means of self-preservation.

But these adults are more active than themselves, and their friends who usually drink flower wine together instantly turn against each other, and the so-called world friends who usually move around often can't wait to fall into the well when they turn their faces. Even...... Xu Qian also heard that among these people who came, there was a military attache of a sailor and a merchant who was considered a son and daughter, but when the general arrived here, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that Lord Wang was going to punish the merchant severely. I'm afraid that the connection between him and the merchant will be deeper, and he can't wait to kill people, and after he goes back, most of them will cut off his in-laws and let his son immediately divorce the merchant's daughter.

Xu Qian sighed in his heart, although he was touched, he didn't have much sympathy, this is the rule of the game, in this game, friends are used to betray, the wall is down and everyone pushes it, some people fall into the well, and countless people smash stones.

Merchants are looking for their own death!

After Wang Mingchuan's command has been decided

, The officials around him said: "The surname Shang is usually polite and polite, but I can't imagine that he is a traitor, I really can't imagine it." Fortunately, Xu Gongzi had insight, otherwise we would have almost been deceived by them. ”

Wang Mingchuan suddenly sighed, tears flashed in the old eyes, and he choked up: "The children of the businessmen are not good, do such things, the old man thinks of Wen Yigong, and can't help but cry...... It's just a pity...... Sorry......"

He suddenly talked about the benefits of Wen Yigong, which first made the officials dumbfounded, but then someone understood. When the emperor first ascended the throne, he once said that there were two heroes in Zhejiang, one was Gong Wen Yi, and the other was Xie Taibao. Even several cabinet elders have repeatedly spoken to Wen Yigong, saying that he is out of the mud and not stained, which is a model.

Now suddenly the merchant has made such a big fuss, of course, the disposal is to deal with it, but it is inevitably a bit of a slap in the face of the palace and the cabinet, so this matter must be seen in two, Wen Yigong is naturally good, and he must not deny Wen Yigong because his descendants are not good, otherwise not only will the palace be disgusted, but some people in the cabinet will also look at you unpleasantly.

The people who woke up did not dare to slack off, and responded one after another: "Yes, yes, it's a pity." ”

Wang Mingchuan said again: "The Japanese officials of the Ming Dynasty will also go to Chun'an to pay homage to the tomb of Duke Wenyi, as for his unworthy descendants...... Wang Mingchuan sighed again, and said: "The state has national laws and family rules, although the official regrets it, he does not allow them." ”

The tone has been set, and no one has raised objections.

Everyone hugged Wang Mingchuan into the hall of the other courtyard like the moon, Xu Qian became a supporting role at this time, and he couldn't help but slander in his heart: "Damn, you did the bad guys, you did the good guys, and you made me feel like I became a soy sauce player." ”

Wang Mingchuan sat down in the first place, and finally remembered Xu Qian, his eyes fell on Xu Qian's body, for Xu Qian, Wang Mingchuan didn't like Xu Qian very much, and even hated it. But at this time, he smiled and said sincerely: "Xu Shengyuan, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid that this merchant is still at large, did you come to check the merchant by the will of the palace?" ”

This is to test Xu Qian, to see how deep the relationship between Xu Qian and the palace is, and to find out what the palace thinks about this businessman.

Xu Qian replied, "The palace only gave the imperial sword. ”

This is to be honest, this imperial sword was given by the palace, and as for who gave it in the palace, Xu Qian was also vague.

One sentence made these people's faces strange.

Wang Mingchuan frowned, he faintly felt that things were not the same as he thought.

They originally thought that since Xu Qian took the imperial sword given by the emperor and ran to check the merchants, then it must have been instructed by the palace, thinking of the fact that Xu Qian killed six widows some time ago and received praise from the palace, it is difficult to guarantee that it was not the palace that asked Xu Qian to secretly investigate the remnants of the widows, and finally this Xu Qian involved the merchants.

It is precisely because of this that the princes present thought that the palace was bound to make up their minds, and the merchant was going to be in great trouble, so they didn't mind making up for the merchant's ass at all.

But now Xu Qian said that the palace only granted him the imperial sword, and did not specifically let him take care of the Japanese Invaders, let alone mention other things, as for the suspicion that the merchant was colluding with the Japanese Invaders, it was just that he made up his own brain, and he had nothing to do.

This is clearly ......

Got caught......

Wang Mingchuan's old face twitched, he knew that this was the case, he would definitely do his best to protect the business, don't say it was him, even the deputy envoy would never let Xu Qian go in to search, and he would definitely find countless excuses to stop Xu Qian.

But now it's in ......

Obviously, they were pitted, and they were put together by this Xu Qian, but they couldn't get angry, not only could they not get angry, Wang Mingchuan also smiled, nodded at Xu Qian very appreciatively: "Sure enough, it's a hero out of a young man, no wonder the palace gave you the sword, good, very good, you have made a great contribution this time, Zhejiang's woe has become more and more intense, and the official has long suspected that someone is secretly colluding with the Japanese and colluding with the Japanese people, if it is not you, how can the merchant be exposed?" At that time, the official will be in the book, and Xu Gongzi will be the first credit. ”

Xu Qian hurriedly said: "Your Excellency is polite, students are just a gesture, where can you be able to strategize and plan the overall situation?" ”

Wang Mingchuan couldn't help laughing and said, "You are too polite, your township test is about to begin, right?" Your talent is very good, if you want to come to this township test, Xu Gongzi must be in high school, and the official often says to others, this time the township test is the first, but I am afraid that it will be you again. This year's township examination, the official will also go to the main exam, you answer the questions well, when the imperial court has both grace and will, Enke can also be high school, and I Hangzhou will inevitably have more of this beautiful talk. ”
