"Something?" Seeing Li Xiao staying in his study, there must be something, and it is inconvenient for Zhang Huangyan to know. It must be a big deal to make Li Xiao go out so cautiously and personally!

"But there is one thing, the manager of the Qinhuangdao Water Supply Office is a nephew of yours?"

Li Xiao's question was a little inexplicable, Sun Chengzong blinked his eyes twice and tried to think about it, but he still couldn't remember.

He was a member of the imperial court and the manager of a water office in Qinhuangdao. An unpopular little official, a standard nine-grade sesame official. There are more such officials than the kings in the Jinshui River. How could he possibly remember!

"How?"

"Here's the thing, my second daughter-in-law is going to do some business. Then I joined forces with my family and invested in a luxury inn in Qinhuangdao. You know, except for the capital and Jinzhou, Xi'an, Jinan. Only Qinhuangdao has complete water and electricity, plus beautiful scenery. Opening an inn must be a good business! ”

"Your family opens an inn, what's the matter with the old man?" Sun Chengzong was even more suspicious.

It stands to reason that Li Xiao's family opened an inn. There should be a green light in the place, how can you contact your own nephew?

It was inconvenient for the woman's family to come forward, so they found the fifth master, and nominally invested by him to build a luxury inn in Qinhuangdao.

The fifth master arrived in Qinhuangdao and met the prefect. Soon bought the land and started construction, and after more than a year of construction, it finally had some appearance. But when it was about to open, the steward of the local water office said...... Fifty thousand silver coins need to be paid to him to supply water! When he said this, Li Xiao's face was already gloomy.

Looking at Li Xiao's face that could almost wring out water, Sun Chengzong frowned deeply.

Although Daming has regulations on paying construction fees to the Water Supply Office, it is definitely not as much as 50,000 silver coins at once. And Li Xiao emphasized that the money was given to the water office. In other words, his nephew scraped the ground and scraped the tiger's head.

Sun Chengzong knew that the steward of the water supply office must be his own nephew. Although he doesn't remember which one it is, but with Li Xiao's temper. If it weren't for his own nephew, his head would have been hanging on the flagpole and fluttering in the wind by now.

Seeing Sun Chengzong's face, Li Xiao knew that this matter was definitely not instructed by Sun Chengzong.

Since Liaodong, Li Xiao and Sun Chengzong have been working together happily. Sun Chengzong was in charge of civil affairs, and Li Xiao was in charge of military affairs. The best pair have always worked together tacitly and have never had any cracks.

It's easy to do if it's not the head of Sun Chengzong!

In fact, the fifth master had already found the prefect yamen of Qinhuangdao and told the prefect about the fact that Steward Sun had blackmailed him. Li Xiao strictly restrained his family, acted in accordance with the "Da Ming Law", and severely punished those who did not respect the law.

So after the fifth master was blackmailed, the first thing was to petition. He thinks that the other party knows that it is the business of the handsome brothers, and he does not deal with the bastard who wants money and wants to go crazy strictly. Unexpectedly, the prefect looked bitter and told the property...... He can't deal with this man.

After inquiring curiously, the fifth master learned that this was actually a nephew of Sun Chengzong, and it was a relatively close one.

Sun Chengzong is in charge of the civil affairs, and the prefect is the official of Sun Chengzong, how dare he offend Lord Shoufu.

can't offend Shoufu, and the handsome side can't afford to offend. The political envoy of Jinzhou was just stripped off by Li Xiao two days ago and hung on the roof of the building as a pendulum. I heard that he was censored by Lu Xiangsheng for a few days, and he died because of a high fever.

God knows how people die! Anyway, it is rumored that the political envoy died a miserable death.

The gods fought, and the prefect could only stand by and watch. You have the ability, you pinch it yourself. I want to see if it's handsome or fierce.

"Send someone to find out, if there is such a thing. Whether it is my clan nephew or not, the "Da Ming Law" is above the law, and no one can violate it. Sun Chengzong sighed, how could an old fox who had been immersed in officialdom all his life and had been a fine man for many years not smell the smell of conspiracy here.

There is no one in the court to support him, and the nephew who is in charge is crazy, so he will fight with a standard boss like Li Xiao. If that guy wasn't his nephew, maybe he wouldn't even have scum left by now.

"Lu Xiangsheng has already returned, so let him go. This person is upright and upright, and everyone is convinced. ”

"Hmmm! Just him, I can trust him. Sun Chengzong agreed, but he didn't explain too much. Because he knows that it may not be useful to explain it.

Li Xiao arched his hand and walked out of Sun Chengzong's study.

"Call the Boss." Sun Chengzong sat on the chair and thought about it, and ordered someone to call his eldest son Sun Quan over.

Because of the last trip to Li Xiao, Sun Quan was sent to his hometown by Sun Chengzong for more than a year. Because he was unwell and needed to be treated by Dr. Li, he returned to the capital.

"Meet Father! You call me? Seeing that Sun Chengzong's face was pale, Sun Quan hurriedly lowered his head and saluted.

"Qinhuangdao Water Office, there is a person from our family, do you know who it is?" Sun Chengzong held an official document in his hand and asked while reading it.

"Know! It was Sun Cheng of the third uncle's family, and the third uncle interceded with me. A few years ago, I asked someone to find the prefect of Qinhuangdao to place an official who was not in the middle of the stream, and I didn't dare to alarm you. Hearing Sun Chengzong ask, Sun Quan bowed down and replied.

"Oh! I remembered that it was Sun Cheng of the third family. I remember when I was a child, that kid was good friends with you. Spin around behind your ass all day long, calling you Brother Quan, Brother Quan! The speech is leaky, and there are some open teeth. Sun Chengzong was still reading the official document and talking at the same time.

"Yes! It's him, he's also read. But in recent years, the imperial court has stopped the imperial examination, and he is really a talented farmer at home, and he is also a scholar. The son was bold, and the prefect of Qinhuangdao who he was looking for was placed on such an errand. The housekeeper brought a cup of tea, and Sun Quan took it and put it on Sun Chengzong's desk.

"It's not too much to bring a brother close to you, and Brother Cheng has also read! It's just that you asked him to stumble on the Li family and openly ask for bribes from the Li family. This is what you are harming him, tell your third uncle, prepare to collect the body. Li Xiao is a Hades character, and he is dead. Sun Chengzong didn't even look at the tea, and was still flipping through the official documents, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.

"Father! You can't, Brother Cheng is your own nephew. He wants to be held accountable and let him come at me. Hearing Sun Chengzong's words, Sun Quan suddenly became anxious.

"It's useless to yell at me, Lu Xiangsheng is already on the road at this time. And it should have been by airship! Even if he sends someone to report the news now, Brother Cheng can't run away. ”

"Father! Lu Xiangsheng is your student, you speak, your words will definitely work. "Sun Quan is in a hurry, this Sun Cheng has been running behind his ass since he was a child. Of all the younger siblings, he liked this cousin the most.

"Hah! Who did you ask him to rub the oil? It is Li Xiao, the marshal of today's Ming Dynasty. ”

"You are the first assistant of the imperial court, and the civil affairs of the great tomorrow belong to you alone. Even if it's the Ministry of War, it's actually up to you. Sun Quan roared hurriedly.

"Huh! The old man is in charge of the military department, but do the people in the military department listen to the old man? They will listen to Zhang Huangyan, and they will listen to Li Xiao, but they won't listen to me. Li Xiao often said that power comes out of the barrel of a gun.

Do you understand what that means? The barrel of the gun is in the hands of others, and the political power is also in the hands of others. Why didn't he want a position in the imperial court, but just made a title of a handsome man himself? He's just watching, very patiently. In the end, who is the one who sincerely assists him, and who is the one who has two thoughts. If he wants to ascend the throne, tomorrow he will be the son of tomorrow.

You don't understand! That's why you watched the Li family accumulate wealth and became jealous, so you instructed Brother Cheng to make them stumble. That's why you confessed Brother Cheng's life.

Now you know, why didn't the old man let you be an official? If you are heavy-minded, unruthless, and show inappropriate thoughts, our whole family will suffer. You don't think that with the one regiment that is pure, you can put Li Xiao to death. You are too naïve, do you think Ao Canghai is transferred back to the capital? Sun Chengzong put down the paperwork in his hand heavily, stood up and looked at this low-eyed son.

"You and Li Xiao fought down this country together, why can he ...... You're ......! ”

"Shut up!

Confused! The Daming Dynasty was defeated by the two kings of Zhongshan and Kaiping. But what happened to them? Don't look at Li Xiao's usual giggling, but he is definitely more ruthless than Emperor Hongwu. Do you want to be a father, Li Shanchang or Lan Yu?

Do you think that your little action can escape Li Xiao's eyes? What does Li Yongfang do? ”

"My son is not afraid, Sima Yi was also ...... back then! I have fought for three generations of my grandson's family, and I can't fight Li Xiao if I don't believe it. ”

"Perseverance! Cruel! Patience! You don't have any of them, and you still say that you want to learn Sima Yi? If you weren't my son Sun Chengzong, maybe you would be hit by a car one day when you went out. When it comes to being ruthless, you are not even as good as Li Hu, let alone Li Xiu and Li Xiao.

From...... Never mind! Now you go back to your hometown immediately, and you are not allowed to go out, you are not allowed to leave your relatives, and you are not allowed to see you cleanly. Sun Chengzong snorted angrily and issued the most severe grounding order, which was even more severe than the last time.

"I can't see my son?"

"No way!"

"Why?" Sun Quan shouted loudly.

"Because I'm your father! Because I am now the head of the Sun family, because I don't want you to harm your son and our entire Sun family again. Sun Chengzong pointed at Sun Quan's nose and scolded, and the tips of his fingers went directly to Sun Quan's face. The face is also unnaturally red because of being too excited.

"Daddy! You're Shousuke! ”

"He is an uncrowned emperor!"

"Daddy! Find a way to save Brother Cheng, he is your own nephew. I was wrong! Am I wrong? Please! Sun Quan knelt on the ground, hugged Sun Chengzong's sleeve and cried loudly.

"Kid! Some things can't be solved by admitting mistakes. Sun Chengzong was a little helpless, but he thought in his heart that as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he still didn't want Sun Cheng to die. Whether it is exile on the frontier or serving a sentence in a prison on the spot, it is better than a "click" in the neck.

"Father......!"

"Come on, send the boss back to Gaoyang's hometown. Zhijie, come here, grandpa will explain something to you. Seeing Sun Zhijie at the door, Sun Chengzong beckoned him in.

Sun Quan looked at his son, and there was a thunderstorm in his eyes. When he passed by, he reached out and grabbed his son's hand.

"Smack!" The ring ruler hit Sun Quan's wrist hard, and when he raised his head, Sun Chengzong had already pulled Sun Zhijie over.

Things were as Sun Chengzong expected, Lu Xiangsheng took people to Qinhuangdao by airship. On the same day, Sun Cheng was arrested, and Sun Cheng's home and study were raided.

I didn't know if I was shocked when I checked it, but I actually found 200,000 silver coins in the cellar of Sun Cheng's house, and 37 catties of gold. In the capital, there are still 68 property title deeds.

The results of the search also frightened Lu Xiangsheng. At the beginning, he just thought that there was a rift between Li Xiao and Sun Chengzong. Unexpectedly, this little Jiupin Sesame Official is actually a huge greed.

What has the housing prices in the capital risen, he actually has sixty-eight sets in his hand. This bastard's ability to hold money is really good!

When the news reached the capital, Sun Chengzong was also shocked. He just thought that Sun Cheng did this after listening to Sun Quan's words, but he didn't expect that this was already a routine operation.

"Sun Cheng behaves domineeringly in the local area, his temper is bad, his reputation is bad, and he is extremely greedy, and there are even local rumors that he has an underworld background, and anyone dares to collect money, and he will not give water to the factories and merchants who do not give money, and the water will be cut off if he gives less money, and even during his tenure, he uses the power and resources in his hands to collect benefits for the water pipes in the army.

He has been in charge of the water supply system for many years, and most of the newly built resorts and sanatoriums have been exploited by it in recent years, and the new units and real estate projects want to connect the water pipeline, all need to go through Sun Cheng, otherwise there will be no water at all, when someone wants to receive water, Sun Cheng will also take the opportunity to do pipeline engineering, if he does not listen, he will not go through the procedures.

The station was built three years ago, only a few dozen meters away from the Beidaihe Water Supply Bureau, but because Sun Quan's conditions were not met, and even the water meter that had been installed in the station was removed, until today, the station still has no tap water available, and can only rely on two large water tanks to store water.

Sun Cheng also had a bad relationship with his superiors and subordinates, and even flipped the table when he disagreed in a meeting. said at every turn that Sun Shoufu was his own uncle. Whoever dares to get along with him can't get along with Sun Shoufu. Even when he was interrogated, he threatened his own officer. Lu Xiangsheng was expressionless, holding the manuscript in his hand. Reported the results of the investigation in front of Li Xiao and Sun Chengzong.

The more Sun Chengzong listened, the worse his face became, he didn't expect it! I didn't expect it! The Sun family's poetry heirloom actually produced such a person.

Li Xiao's face was also ugly, he didn't expect that such a bold bastard would appear in the place, and even the Liao army would dare to lie to it.
