After settling Zhang Shou's wife and wife, Zheng Michang ordered Zhang Shou's body to be kept, and then returned to the Governor's Mansion with He Maocai.

"You go down first, this official and the envoy have important matters to discuss!"

As soon as he returned to the Governor's Palace, Zheng Michang retreated.

"Yes, sir!"

After the subordinates were ordered to leave, there were only two people left in the entire hall, Zheng Michang and He Maocai.

"What should you do about this, do you really want to offend the Wen family for the sake of a common people? As far as I know, the Wen family can secretly attract many officials! He Maocai was confused by Zheng Michang's previous series of operations, and hurriedly asked.

"Hmph, of course! In recent years, his Wen family has relied on selling illicit salt, and the wealth he has gathered is more than 10 million! But every year, it gives us such a little benefit, what, is it called Huazi? ”

Zheng Michang's mouth was dry, and then he picked up the teacup on the side and drank all the tea in the cup.

"Are you trying to make a fuss about this? Let the Wen family share more profits and give us some benefits? ”

After Zheng Michang's explanation, He Maocai seemed to understand the intention of this move.

"Open up the pattern a little more, why can't we swallow all the property of his Wen family?" Zheng Michang glanced at He Maocai and asked rhetorically.

"What? It's just the two of us, can we eat it? After He Maocai listened to Zheng Michang's words, he couldn't help but be surprised.

"It's so stupid, the two of us can't eat it, so we can pull the elder of the pavilion with them when the time comes! When the time comes, the big head will be given to the elder of the pavilion, and the small head will be divided by the two of us, isn't it better than being called Hanako? Moreover, most of the bribes he paid to the Wen family were officials from Qingliu. ”

"First, you can get a lot of money, second, you can please the elders, and third, you can deal with those Qingliu officials, this is a great thing that kills three birds with one stone!"

Zheng Michang covered his forehead and patiently explained.

"That's right, right now that Zhang Shou's corpse is in our hands, the Wen family doesn't want to handle it yet, just handle it! Boy, when did you become so smart? After He Maocai finished speaking, he looked Zheng Michang up and down suspiciously.

"Hmph, I realized this in the past few days by the Governor's side, and this official will go and write a letter to the Pavilion Elder and them later!" Zheng Michang said, his face full of self-satisfaction.

"It's just that there is one more concern, you and I can't take the lead in this case! In that case, it would seem too deliberate. He Maocai ignored Zheng Michang's boasting, but put forward his own ideas.

"You don't have to worry, the official already has an excellent candidate in mind."

"Who?"

"Chun'an Zhixian, Hai Rui."

……

Hangzhou City, in the Wen family ancestral hall.

"You wicked obstacle, so bold, you dare to kill people in the street! It's just a matter of killing people on the street, but you can't settle this matter! I have to let your father and I wipe your ass for you, it's your mother who spoils you. ”

"Come on, enforce the family law!"

In the ancestral hall, Wen Pingyi was looking at his youngest son Wen Rong with a look of hatred for iron and steel.

As soon as he heard that the family law was going to be enforced, Wen Rong's whole body was paralyzed, and he said with tears in his eyes: "Father doesn't want it, father doesn't want it, the child knows it's wrong!" Please, don't, ah! ”

With a scream, the servant on the side somehow found a wooden stick the thickness of an arm and handed it to the person in charge of enforcing the family law.

"Let's get another one." Wen Pingyi looked at the wooden stick brought by the servant under his hand, couldn't help frowning, and said softly.

"Yes, sir!" When the servant received the order, he immediately found another stick, and this one was twice as thick as the previous one.

"Who brought these two in? Give them their wages and tell them to get out of here! Wen Pingyi was furious, and then called the housekeeper and commanded.

"Yes, sir, I'm going to blast the two of them out in the next place!"

After the housekeeper finished speaking, he beckoned his subordinates to blast the two people out of the Wen family ancestral hall.

"Master, what did we do wrong? Please, don't drive us away......"

After the previous episode, Wen Pingyi had no intention of continuing to implement the family law.

"Next, a month's lockdown! Don't hang out with your fox friends anymore, got it? ”

Wen Pingyi looked at his little son who was kneeling in the ancestral hall and was terrified, and instructed.

"Yes, father, the boy really knows that he is wrong! There will be no next time. Wen Rong saw that he was exempt from family law, and he couldn't help but feel lucky, and said again and again.

After Wen Pingyi walked out of the ancestral hall, he called the housekeeper and said in a low voice: "Send some silver to those officials, and settle this matter." ”

"Yes, sir, I'll do it next." After listening to Wen Pingyi's instructions, the housekeeper left quickly.

……

Since the last quarrel with his wife Wang, the husband and wife have fallen into a cold war, and neither of them is willing to take the lead in opening up to the other party, and Hai Rui is also more diligent in official business, often staying until late to go back.

"Well, then take down these processed files." Hai Rui said, pointing to the stack of files piled up on the bookcase.

"Yes, Lord Zhixian!" After the little official answered, he took all the stacks of files away.

At this moment, the voice of the official came from outside: "Report to the magistrate, there are officials from the Governor's Mansion outside who want to see you!" ”

"Invite him in!" Hai Rui put down the brush in his hand and spoke.

"Yes!" After hearing Hai Rui's order, the official hurriedly put the people into the county government of Chun'an County.

"Your Excellency, please!" When the officials saw that this was an official from the governor's palace, their faces were full of flattery.

And the official just snorted coldly and ignored these officials.

"Really, what's the spirit? Isn't it just serving in the Governor's Palace? It's still a messenger! ”

"Yes, yes, a messenger is embarrassed to play official power in front of us?"

After this official entered the county government of Chun'an County, the previous officials began to complain.

……

"I've seen Lord Zhixian!" The official in charge of delivering the letter in the governor's palace bowed to Hai Rui after entering the county office of Chun'an County.

"Well, I don't know why you came to this office?" Hai Rui looked at the official under the hall and asked in a deep voice.

"Lord Zhixian, that's the case, the political envoy has encountered a rather difficult case, and I want you to go over and assist in handling the case!" The official said goodbye and bowed to Hai Rui again.

"You are obviously an official of the Governor's Palace, why did you be sent by the political envoy?" Hai Rui said, picked up the teacup on the side, took a sip, and asked.

"Report to the county commander, here's the thing, the governor has received a new appointment from the imperial court, and he has not been in the governor's palace for a while! Therefore, he temporarily entrusted all the affairs of the Governor's Palace to the affairs of the Governor's Palace. ”

"Oh, the official knows, you go down first! There are still some small things to deal with here, so you can go back and report it. Hai Rui did not rush to follow the comer, but chose to delay for a while.

"Well, okay, I'll go back to the Governor's Mansion and inform the envoy!"

After the officials from the Governor's Mansion who had come to deliver the letter left, Hai Rui sighed and returned to the inner courtyard of the county government.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Hai Rui's wife, Wang, saw Hai Rui return to the inner courtyard of the county government in broad daylight, and thought that something was wrong, and walked out of the room, looking worried, completely forgetting the fact that the husband and wife were in a cold war.

"It's nothing, it's just that the political envoy has encountered a tricky case, and asked me to go and help!"

Hai Rui shook his head, unwilling to say more.

"That's a good thing! It shows that the envoy has recognized your abilities! After Hai Rui's wife, Wang, listened to Hai Rui's story, her tone became very excited.

"Having said that, I have a vague feeling that this matter is not simple! If something happens to me, you can just leave and don't stay here anymore. ”

"Don't worry, nothing will happen!"

Seeing this, Hai Rui's wife, Wang, blocked what Hai Rui wanted to say next in her throat.
