Chapter 171: Those hundred or so officials are all in danger

Wen Yin's pamphlet dealt a heavy blow to the ministers of the current court.

immediately ordered Nalan Rongjin to work on the case.

Wen Chengming, as one of the few officials who had not been involved in gambling, accepted the case together with Nalan Rongjin as an assistant.

According to the booklet, Nalan Rongjin quickly found the shopkeeper of the gambling and made a record of the betting situation of these hundreds of officials in recent years.

It clearly states that a certain minister came to gamble at a certain time and gambled on which table.

The case was handled quickly.

Let those officials have no time to deal with it.

Most of the officials were only involved in the gambling of the dragon boat race, and the amount of money they participated in was not much, but the fine of 10 times that of officials with modest family circumstances still made them peel off a layer of skin.

Not to mention, some officials gambled their entire net worth because they trusted the children of the capital too much that they would win.

The officials who blocked all their net worth were already in a situation where their families were in vain, and now a tenfold fine could only leave them without a way out...... Take off this black gauze hat and say goodbye to the court.

Helian Feng was one of them, because he believed too much that the children of the capital would win that dragon boat race, and gambled his entire net worth in it.

Faced with a tenfold fine, Helian Feng went to Helian Jiao as soon as possible.

"There is really no way to be a brother, this ten thousand taels, I can only turn to you for help."

Helian Jiao didn't expect this to happen, and her face turned pale with surprise.

"Brother, I can't take out this money for a while, why don't you think about it again, can you push it and slow down ......?"

Helian Feng's clothes were soaked: "Now that the hundreds of officials are in danger, I just want to borrow money, and someone has to be willing to lend it to me, for my brother, this is desperate." ”

Helian Jiao knows that Helian's family is good, and she can be good.

She paced back and forth in the house, and then asked: "Brother, I didn't take a lot of things out of the Prime Minister's Mansion for you to bring back, those things are antiques, calligraphy and paintings, how much is worth a little money, give them to those first, and then ......"

Helian Jiao looked at the brocade and silk in her room, and asked the maid to wrap up all those things.

The jewelry box she gave herself, as well as everything she could take off from her body, were taken off and given to Helian Feng.

"Brother, you take these things to pawn first, how much can you pawn, whether it is a hundred taels or ten taels of silver, add up to a lot, and I will continue to think of ways to do the rest."

Helian Feng took the things in his hand and continued: "Now there is no other way, you can only go and ask the prime minister to open the net, if you can't give this ten thousand taels of silver, I'm afraid that my brother's official position will not be guaranteed." ”

"Brother, don't worry, sister will figure it out."

She touched her stomach: "Tiger poison doesn't eat children, I really begged in front of Wen Chengming, he won't be so ruthless." ”

Helian Feng glanced at Helian Jiao's bulging belly, his eyes were somewhat unnatural, and he left Helian Jiao with a sentence when he parted: "Sister has worked hard for you." ”

After Helian Jiao said goodbye to Helian Feng, she sat in front of the makeup mirror.

Yahuan came over and asked, "Auntie, what should I do now?" ”

Helian Jiao pursed her lips and said, "Dress me up, it's still the same kind of weakness as everyday." ”

"Okay, slave understands."

Helian is delicate, and there is nothing surprising about her appearance, but she will use her simple advantages and some clothes that match her temperament, and dress up with a kind of jade-like tenderness.

She dressed up, got into the carriage, and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

When Helian Jiao arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Uncle Zeng saw Helian Jiao from afar.

Uncle Zeng was taken aback, thought about it, and still welcomed the person into the house.

It's just for Helian Jiao to be placed in a side room.

Although Helian Jiao was angry that Uncle Zeng did this, she had to endure it first.

If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan.

When Wen Chengming came back, she would tell Wen Chengming about this great-uncle's personality.

It's just that after waiting for a long time, he drank two cups of tea, and Helian Jiao never waited for Wen Chengming to come back.

Helian Jiao was anxious and asked Uncle Zeng about the situation.

Uncle Zeng said: "My lord is busy these days, and he has no time at home. ”

Helian Jiao felt that it was wrong: "What time is this, even if it is an investigation, what else can be investigated at night." ”

Uncle Zeng twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and said: "Maybe I'm going to find Madame, Madame has been living in the General's Mansion recently, and the master often goes to the General's Mansion, I should want to invite Madame back, our Prime Minister's Mansion can't do without Madame." ”

Hearing this, Helian Jiao felt very uncomfortable.

But she is weak now, and she can't fight against Uncle Zeng.

So she gritted her teeth and had to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion first.

After getting into the carriage, Helian Jiao covered her stomach and couldn't help but have her eyes slightly red.

The maid said distressedly on the side: "Auntie, don't cry, it's not good for the child, the master is not that kind of person, even if there is a mustard between him and Lord Helian, he will not affect the aunt, let alone ignore the child in the aunt's belly." ”

Helian Jiao sobbed, and asked in turn: "Then tell me, why did the prime minister go to the General's Mansion to find that woman, and didn't go outside the city to see me and the child." ”

Yahuan was stunned, speechless for a while, and couldn't say a word in a daze.

Helian Jiao's tears fell down, but she couldn't help but feel a breath in her heart, so the coachman turned around and went to the General's Mansion.

When the people arrived at the gate of the general's mansion, the little servant went in to report.

When Jiang heard this, he didn't want people to come in, but after all, the other party was a pregnant woman, and if something happened to her big belly, she couldn't take this responsibility.

simply told Wen Chengming, who was talking to Song Xiuyan in the side hall.

Wen Chengming didn't just come to the General's Mansion to find Ye Xiudi.

He also knew that Ye Xiudi was unlikely to see him.

He came to talk to Song Xiuyan about the recent development of the case.

Chatting and chatting, Wen Chengming expressed the bitterness in his heart, and had two drinks with Song Xiuyan.

I happened to encounter that there were no good appetizers in the house, so I simply went out with Song Xiuyan through the back door to buy some tendon meat.

When the little guy went to find Wen Chengming, he just missed it.

Wen Chengming's person was not found for a while, and Jiang ran out of ideas for a while.

simply let the little guy directly reject Helian Jiao.

Helian Jiao was prevented from entering the mansion, and the grievances in her heart were even worse.

She felt that Wen Chengming didn't want her anymore...... Impulsive for a while, regardless of whether there is a child in the belly or not, he rushed to the general's mansion.

The family members of the General's Mansion didn't dare to stretch out their hands to her for the sake of her belly, so they could only walk in by her.

When she came in, she called Wen Chengming's name.

Wen Yin was about to go to the Jiang family to thank her because of Ye Xiudi's temporary residence in the mansion, but she happened to encounter this scene.

Wen Yin saw Helian Jiao, and her brows furrowed deeply: "What are you doing here?" ”

Helian Jiao's eyes were scarlet, staring at Wen Yin with her stomach up, walked in front of her, and couldn't help but break up and stretched out her hand to hit someone.

Wen Yin was startled, and hurriedly dodged, but she didn't know when Zhou Pianran stood by her side and stopped Helian Jiao.

Helian Jiao was stopped by Zhou Pianran, and her hands were about to break free, but Zhou Pianran pushed him backwards and almost pushed Helian Jiao down.

Helian Jiao was supported by Yahuan, glared angrily and shouted: "Wen Chengmingren, you let him come out to see me!" ”
