Chapter 40: A Conspiracy Emerges!
As soon as Li Fuwei's words stopped, more than a dozen black-clothed servants stepped forward together.
These errand soldiers are all practitioners who have been practicing for decades, holding a killing stick, and they all stepped forward to arrest people.
Zhou Hu stood in front of Jiang Han and shouted: "My young master is the second son of the Duke of Weiguo, who dares to offend!" ”
Who doesn't know that Duke Wei is the top prince of Great Xia, even if Jiang Han is just a concubine, it is not something that ordinary servants can capture.
The black-clothed officer hesitated, and Li Fuwei shouted: "Even if Wei Guogong comes today, I am justified!" Take this shaft down for me! ”
"Bold! Who dares to hurt the son of the prince! Zhou Hu shouted sharply and took out a dagger from his pocket.
In addition to being Jiang Han's servant, Zhou Hu is also his bodyguard, although he is not a Confucian student, he is also a martial artist, and his skills are not weaker than ordinary people.
The dagger in his hand shimmered red and white in the daylight, and it was not ordinary.
"Dare to move the blade at the gate of the national prison, it has violated the law of the country, and the crime should be a hundred rods! If you resist the servants, you will be killed with a rod! Wang Yuan's eyes lit up and shouted, "Kill me directly!" ”
In the inner city of Kyoto, there is a strict sword control system, except for those who have official positions, they are not allowed to carry swords, otherwise they will violate the law of the country and should be punished with a rod!
If you dare to resist the servants, you can be killed with a rod in public!
Wang Yuan hadn't been able to do anything to Jiang Han, but when he saw the servant beside him take out a dagger, he was overjoyed, maybe he just took this opportunity to get rid of Jiang Han.
Three or four black-clothed servants swung their killing sticks and attacked, the rods were fierce, and before they could get close, they shook Zhou Hu's hair and flew back.
Zhou Hu responded calmly, protecting Jiang Han to retreat and dodge, while holding the dagger to find a gap and counterattack.
There is a saying in the weapon that "one zhang is long and one zhang is strong, and one inch is short and one inch is dangerous", which corresponds to the fight between Zhou Hu and the black-clothed officer at this moment.
The other black-clothed servants quickly took down all the employees of the bookstore, and then came to help the four officers who were besieging Zhou Hu.
This next week, the Tiger will be even more disadvantaged.
Jiang Han observed calmly and calmly analyzed the situation, even if they were arrested, in fact, Guozijian would not dare to do anything to him.
and would never dare to torture the son of the prince.
After all, he didn't break any law.
If Zhou Hu hurts someone's life, then the matter will really be a big problem.
"Zhou Hu, put the dagger away, I'll see what they dare to do with me." Jiang Han said lightly.
Zhou Hu took a few steps back, did not hesitate, and put away the dagger.
The black-clad officer took advantage of the situation and grabbed him.
"My lord, what should we do with these people?"
Li Xuezheng waved his hand annoyedly, "Lock them up first, and then notify the Beijing government to deal with them." ”
"My lord, what should I do with those popular novels?"
"Put it away too, and use it as evidence!"
The black-clothed servant escorted Jiang Han and the bookstore staff to a side courtyard of Guozijian, but after all, he was afraid of Wei Guogong and did not dare to hurt a single hair of Jiang Han.
In the middle of the courtyard.
Zhou Hu said in a deep voice: "Young master, I just said that you can't sell books at the gate of Guozijian, right?" Something happened now, and we were locked up here, and when the people from the Beijing government came, I was afraid that we would have to be interrogated. ”
Jiang Han smiled: "What are you afraid of? The guy surnamed Li just got angry with me, and at most he locked me up for half a day, and then honestly let me go. Even if someone from Jingya comes, they have to be polite. ”
Although the unfair class of the feudal dynasty is often criticized by later generations, Jiang Han also criticized this unfair ruling class in his previous life.
But now that he was born in the upper echelons of the ruling class, he can only say that it is really fragrant.
He dared to guarantee that not to mention that he was selling books at the gate of the Guozijian, even if he peed at the gate of the Guozijian, there would be nothing at all.
"But the young master is the future master of the horse, and the one surnamed Li dares to send the young master to the Beijing government!" Zhou Hu said angrily: "They are really big dogs! ”
Jiang Han said with a smile: "What's the matter with closing it for a long time, anyway, the reputation of the Sanwei Book House has already risen, and after this time passes, "Dream of Red Mansions" will definitely become the best-selling popular book in Kyoto, and our Sanwei Book House will also become the largest bookstore in Kyoto!" What is the loss of eating this, it is very cost-effective. ”
Zhou Hu touted: "The young master is wise! ”
……
At the same time, in the side hall on the west side of Guozijian.
Li Fuwei, Yue Wang, He Xiu, Wang Yuan and others are all there.
Li Fuwei paced around the room, getting more and more irritable.
King Yue sat on the throne and drank tea, his expression calm.
And He Xiu and Wang Yuan were looking at a book in the deputy seat, and the expressions on their faces became more and more excited.
"Damn, damn! This Jiang Han is really hateful! Are the people from Jingya coming? Li Fuwei said.
Today was supposed to be the day when "Guoziji" went on sale, but Jiang Han did it, and now no one in Guozijian's bookstore has come.
In previous years, "Guozi Collection" was on sale, and tens of millions of copies were sold, but on the first day of sale this year, the sales were so bleak.
King Yue said lightly: "This king didn't let people inform the yamen. ”
Li Fuwei turned his head to look at him in surprise and said, "Why didn't His Royal Highness King Yue inform the yamen?" This son is so hateful, he should be arrested and sent to the prison of the Yamen! ”
King Yue smiled bitterly: "Li Xuezheng, to be honest, what can you do even if you notify the yamen?" Do you really think Jiang Han will go to prison in your heart? This king can let the governor of the Beijing government arrest people. But even if Jiang Han is really arrested and imprisoned, what crime can he be treated? ”
Li Fuwei said angrily: "Isn't it a crime to sell books at the gate of Guozijian? ”
King Yue shook his head: "Naturally, it is a crime, but this crime is very small, Wei Guogong doesn't have to make a move, as long as he asks people to pay a fine, he can come out." The money he earned from selling the books at the gate of the Guozijian today was enough to pay ten fines. ”
Li Fuwei sat on the chair angrily, his chest rising and falling.
"And what about his servant? Didn't you use your blade? He could be condemned! ”
King Yue said: "The law of Great Xia, if you use a knife at the gate of the Guozi Prison, you will indeed be convicted of a felony!" Even to be killed with a cane! But he wielded a dagger, which was not enough to convict. ”
With a dagger, it can be regarded as a loophole in the law.
Li Fuwei was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and waved his big hand: "Do you want to let them go?" ”
King Yue lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "What else does Li Xuezheng do?" ”
Li Xuezheng was silent for a moment and sighed silently.
What else? You can't kill people, can you?
"It's time to think about it! The king is gone. King Yue left with a smile.
Li Fuwei waved his hand weakly: "Forget it, let people go!" ”
However, at this moment, He Xiu said: "Teacher, don't let people go!" This son is so arrogant, swaggering through the market at the gate of Guozijian, if he is released, how can Guozijian have face? In the future, how should the people of the world view Guozijian? If he is not severely punished, I am afraid that all booksellers in the future will follow his example and sell books at the gate of the Guozijian! ”
Li Fuwei said angrily: "What if you don't let go? What conviction can he be convicted of selling books? ”
He Xiu glanced at Wang Yuan next to him, and a smile appeared on his face.
Wang Yuandao: "The teacher is angry, if he is convicted of selling books at the gate of Guozi Prison, he really can't do anything to Jiang Han, but if he is convicted of another crime, this Jiang Han will be finished!" ”
Li Fuwei frowned: "What else can you convict him?" Is he destined to compete with the people for profit? Oh, forget it, let the messenger let him go! ”
Wang Yuanhe smiled and waved the book in his hand: "Teacher, don't worry, you can take a look at this book first, can you convict him of a capital crime!" ”
