Lord Bai spoke sonorously and powerfully.

"I promise you that I will give you an explanation of this matter, but I have to ask you to wait patiently first, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!"

After saying this, there was a round of applause.

Shen Yingniang whispered to Yue Lingjun: "Xianggong, do you think this Lord Bai can deal with the big backer behind Shopkeeper Li?" He is indeed one level older than the county magistrate, but what if the backer is even more powerful? After all, it is not to be underestimated if you can make the county order submitted......"

Yue Lingjun knew Shen Yingniang's worries and patted her shoulder to reassure.

"The reason why Shopkeeper Li cares about it is nothing more than because he has to stay here to deal with the other party, but this Lord Bai is different, he is from Fucheng, and he should have no background to do with that backer."

"Since there is no stake, if we take it, it will be a credit, but we have to guide Lord Bai to focus on that person, after all, only the county order and the shopkeeper Li have surfaced now, in case these two people bite to death and don't admit it, we really can't do anything about each other."

Shen Yingniang looked at Yue Lingjun's serious analysis, and couldn't help swallowing her saliva, it was really Yue Lingjun's performance that was too brilliant.

A man with a black belly and a thoughtful mind is really attractive!

Shen Yingniang didn't want to be a useless foil, so after thinking about it, she decided to take the initiative, pinched Yue Lingjun's arm and said.

"Xianggong, then we can't just look at it, this time we offended each other to death, if we can catch it all, we will do business more smoothly in the future, let's ...... like this"

Shen Yingniang said, and leaned into Yue Lingjun's ear and whispered, Yue Lingjun's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he looked at Shen Yingniang with appreciation.

"That's a good idea, tell him."

Shen Yingniang was a little excited when she received Yue Lingjun's affirmation and encouragement.

But this matter really has to be resolved quickly, and finally a big Buddha came, but you have to say goodbye.

"Lord White."

When Lord Bai heard the voice, he turned his head and saw Shen Yingniang and Yue Lingjun standing behind him, and he smiled, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Shen Yingniang said with a serious expression: "Lord Bai, you just came, I'm afraid you don't know, that shopkeeper Li has a backer behind him, and the county order should be because of his backer to protect him, reversing black and white." ”

"We really don't want to disturb your Yaxing, but if we don't control that backer, wait for you to leave...... We're miserable. ”

Shen Yingniang said in a weak tone, but she didn't dare to order this white master to do something.

Lord Bai guessed the intentions of the two, and said directly: "Two, let's talk about it directly, I came to Weifu for a private visit, and when I see this kind of thing, I naturally have to take care of it to the end." ”

Shen Yingniang breathed a sigh of relief, so she didn't hide it anymore, and said directly: "Lord Bai, we have a way to know who the backer is behind it, we just need to join forces and lure him out, but I don't know what the adults think......"

Lord Bai squinted, his gaze swept back and forth between Shen Yingniang and Yue Lingjun, and then smiled: "What are you going to do?" The official listened attentively. ”

Yue Lingjun took over the conversation, although his tone was calm, but with a power that could not be refused.

"The breakthrough is in that shopkeeper Li, we have to use a trick to let him say it himself."

Lord Bai also guessed this through Fang Cai's inquiry, "Don't worry, I have already sent someone to arrest that shopkeeper Li, and after he is caught, he will definitely be severely punished, and he will honestly explain." ”

"No!"

Yue Lingjun suddenly opened his mouth to stop him, and in Lord Bai's puzzled eyes, he suddenly sneered and said, "Isn't the imperial court short of money and wants to raise taxes?" This is a good opportunity to collect taxes. ”

Lord Bai was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he instantly understood what Yue Lingjun meant.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

……

County office.

Shen Yingniang, Yue Lingjun and Zhou Yuan, under the leadership of several guards of Lord Bai, sat down in the backyard of the county government.

They are going to wait here for Lord Bai.

Zhou Yuan was also not good at letting a few guards help entertain him, he was going to entertain Shen Yingniang in person, found a place to make tea, and Zhou Yuan poured a cup for Shen Yingniang and Yue Lingjun each.

"Shopkeeper Shen, shopkeeper Yue, I didn't expect this to be the case when we met this time, and I'm quite happy that there is a place that can help."

Zhou Yuan's face was sincere.

Shen Yingniang took a sip of tea, looked around and said with a smile: "You're welcome, I have written down this favor, I'm afraid our county magistrate didn't expect that his territory would be occupied by others, right?" He was unlucky this time, who made him choose the wrong path. ”

Shen Yingniang really thought so, but as long as the county order remained neutral today, she would not ask Lord Bai to arrest him.

Because Shen Yingniang knew that under the threat of the backer behind Li's shopkeeper, it should be difficult for the county order to do, but even if it is difficult to do, I am the reason for the county order to help the abuse.

If you don't help left and right, it's the best choice, but the county magistrate just chose to shield Shopkeeper Li and attack her, so don't blame her for being cold-blooded and ruthless!

Seeing that Shen Yingniang's interest was not high, Zhou Yuan simply spoke to Yue Lingjun, "Shopkeeper Yue, don't worry, Lord Bai is very fair, as long as this matter is the same as you said, and he has seized the evidence, he will not let go of the county order and Shopkeeper Li." ”

Yue Lingjun raised the teacup and gestured to Zhou Yuan, "Thank you." ”

A few people were catching up in the backyard.

In the county jail, Lord Bai personally took two guards to escort the county order and Shopkeeper Li to the prison.

As for these jailers of the county government, they were naturally also taken over by Lord Bai, and two of them personally sent their county orders to the prison, and they didn't dare to raise their heads.

Lord Bai stood at the door of the building, staring at the jailer locking the door, and then said to the county order with his hands behind his back majestically.

"You are also confused, you have been studying hard for more than ten years, and once you have taken a fork in the road, the bright and open official road will have nothing to do with you, why do you say you bother?"

The county commander was stunned to death, and he slammed the door of the cell with a look of remorse and said pleadingly.

"Lord Bai, give me a chance, you raise your hand, I know it's wrong, I don't dare anymore! I'm being threatened, too! ”

Lord Bai became interested, "Oh? Threat? Who threatened you? If you are willing to make meritorious deeds, I can give you this opportunity. ”

The county commander's eyes lit up, and when he opened his mouth and was about to speak, he got stuck again, his eyes dodged, and he glanced at the shopkeeper Li in the next cell with a weak heart, and then looked away and said curtly.

"My lord, the ...... It's me who was confused for a while, I'm talking nonsense, it's the guy surnamed Li who bribed me with money, you let me go, I really don't dare anymore, I only accepted such money once. ”

The change of the county order is too blunt, where can Lord Bai not see that he is lying?

It seems that Shen Yingniang and Yue Lingjun are right, that backer has a very hard background, this parent official is so afraid of him, he is imprisoned, and he can't keep the black gauze hat, and he actually has to cover it up for him.

Lord Bai felt that it was necessary for him to stay in this place for a longer time, and he had to catch people anyway.

Lord Bai glanced lightly at Shopkeeper Li in the cell next door, "Shopkeeper Li, is that so?" You bribed the county magistrate with money to bend the law for personal gain? ”

Shopkeeper Li in the next cell was frightened by the words of the county order.

Fortunately, the county order did not really confess to the boss, and was questioned by Lord Bai at this time, of course the shopkeeper Li refused to say, not to mention that he still had a chance to go out, if he did, he would probably have to die here.

So Shopkeeper Li said the rhetoric that had been prepared in his stomach for a long time.

"My lord, the grass people are also confused for a while, it's really that Shen Yingniang doesn't pay attention to the rules in doing business, she robbed almost all the business in our county by herself, so what do we eat and drink in Shunru Restaurant?"

"Yes, she has the ability, but she can't kill them all, right? I'm just so angry that I do that...... My lord, let me go, I won't dare anymore! ”

The same rhetoric.

The attitude is just as annoying!

Lord Bai's face was full of frost, and he said in a cold tone: "If you can't do business, you can use some side doors?" To tell you the truth, I'm not your parent here, and I shouldn't have been in this business in the first place. ”

Hearing this, the eyes of the county magistrate and shopkeeper Li lit up, but before the two could speak, Lord Bai suddenly changed his words and scolded with an ugly face.

"But who made you bold enough to talk about the imperial court taxes this time? Tiger skin is involved in the matter of tax collection by the imperial court, I think you are very bold, and you are estimated to be hard enough! ”

"Then I'll tell you, this matter can't be good, it involves the tax of the imperial court, but you are influencing the national policy, if I really let you go, I can't explain it to the imperial court."

Hearing Lord Bai say this, why didn't the county magistrate understand the seriousness of the matter? He asked anxiously.

"My lord, what do you—what do you want to do? You won't be thinking ...... Will you report this matter to the court? ”

The shopkeeper Li next to him also panicked.

If this matter is resolved on the spot, he may be able to get out, after all, the boss has such a ability to get him out, but if this matter is really reported to the court, no matter how long the boss's hand is, it is impossible to reach out to the capital......

Wouldn't it be miserable for you?

Shopkeeper Li's face became more and more panicked, and his eyes were full of fear.

Lord Bai saw the expressions of the two in his eyes, sneered in his heart, and his expression was still a selfless appearance.

"Now you know you're scared? It's late! When you dared to pull the tiger skin of the imperial court's taxes, why didn't you see you afraid? This matter must be reported to the imperial court, lest some places follow the example. ”

"If the emperor asks in person, the two of you will ask for more blessings, cutting off your head is considered light, if you accidentally connect the nine clans, it will cause disaster to your descendants......"

When he said this, Lord Bai's tone was a little more solemn.

"That's your own doing! However, the more severe the punishment, the more it can reflect the importance of the imperial court, so you can do it yourself. ”

The two of them turned pale and their bodies were shaky, but Lord Bai was still ruthless, turned around directly, and walked out, his mouth was still full of complaints.

"Originally, it was difficult for the imperial court to increase taxes, but there were still some people who had to do nonsense, causing dissatisfaction among the people, in case the tax collection was uneven this time, I would have to be implicated by you two unlucky ghosts, I was really angry......

Lord Bai's words clearly fell into the ears of the county order and the shopkeeper Li, the county order was not so sharp, he only knew that he was finished, completely finished.

Not only did he have to die, but he probably had to involve his family, and his son was also finished...... The county commander fell into a whirlpool of remorse, holding his head and crying in pain.

But the desperate eyes of the shopkeeper Li next to him suddenly burst into a glimmer of hope, collect taxes? Tax!

Shopkeeper Li suddenly had a thought in his heart, although he didn't know whether he would succeed or not, and the chances were slim, but if he succeeded, maybe he could save his life?

Why not give it a try!
