There is no impermeable wall in the world, and soon, the news that Hai Rui, the county governor of Chun'an, personally led the guards of the Governor's Mansion to the Wen family to get people! As soon as the news came out, the people of the entire city of Hangzhou were jubilant, while the officials who had received the Wen family's silver were gloomy and uncertain.

In the box of the most luxurious restaurant in Hangzhou, several officials are gathering to drink, and the table is full of all kinds of exquisite dishes.

"Brothers, tell me, what is the origin of this Hai Rui in Chun'an Zhi County? Why are you so bold? Dare to go to the Wen family to get someone! An official put down his chopsticks and asked his colleagues beside him.

"Hmph, I see, this Hai Rui is definitely not simple, maybe he is a student of a high-ranking official in the capital, and he has come here to practice! Otherwise, how could you get the political envoy to be so supportive, right? ”

"Yes, I also think it's strange, the political envoy is a dignified second-class official, there is no need to take care of his small magistrate like this! Not only that, but the guards of the Governor's Palace were also handed over to this Hai Rui to be transferred. ”

"You say, should we go to the pier to say goodbye, and we can take care of things in the future, right?"

"Come on, how can people look down on us with that background?"

"Forget it, don't talk about it, come, drink and drink."

"Here, cheers!"

……

On the other hand, since the spread of Hai Jui's incident, it has been a great blow to the prestige that the Wen family has accumulated over the years.

In the past, those low-eyed opponents also gathered one after another and gossiped: "His Wen family is so powerful, why can't he even keep his son?" I also asked a small magistrate to come to the door to get it, hahaha! ”

There are many similar remarks, and after the housekeeper reported them all to Wen Pingyi, Wen Pingyi was furious and threw his favorite vase.

"Master, what should we do next?" Seeing this, the housekeeper on the side asked cautiously.

"Don't you have a brain? Ask me everything? What do you eat when my Wen family raises you? A bunch of rubbish! And those dog officers! Usually when you take money, one is more positive than the other, and when you really encounter something, you can't count on any of them! ”

Maybe the resentment in his heart has not been fully vented, and then Wen Pingyi pointed the finger at his wife again, only to see that his eyes were bloodshot, his breathing was short, and the whole person looked like a living beast.

"It's all you, who are so pampered with that evil animal on weekdays, that made him what he is now! Hanging out with those fox friends all day long caused me so much trouble. ”

"You!" Wen Pingyi's wife was angrily reprimanded by this, and immediately her eyes turned red, and she returned to her room crying.

After scolding his wife fiercely, Wen Pingyi sat back in his chair weakly, looking depressed.

"Master, if we don't act again, the little young master will be more than lucky!" Seeing that Wen Pingyi had finished venting his anger, the housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward and asked about the next countermeasures.

"You go to the counter and pay 50,000 taels of silver and send it to the political envoy! In addition, I will bring him a sentence, my Wen family is willing to give him an additional 20% share in the future. ”

"Yes, sir! Go down here. ”

After the butler finished speaking, he walked away quickly.

……

Zhejiang, Zhejiang's Governor's Palace.

"Lord Zheng, why are you bothered? That Zhang Shou is obviously just a poor scholar who sells calligraphy and paintings for a living, why do you have to offend the Wen family for him? That's not your style! ”

"Yes, Lord Zheng, why don't we expose this matter gently, and the benefits will be indispensable to you at that time."

"Isn't it just killing a common man, what's the big deal, wouldn't it be okay to pay more money when the time comes? Lord Zheng, don't be taken advantage of by these people! ”

"Okay, you don't need to say it anymore, the official has already made up his mind, this case must be handled by the official! Ladies and gentlemen, please come back. ”

Zheng Michang sat on the top, picked up the teacup, and said coldly.

Seeing that Zheng Michang was so inadequate, those who had previously accepted the Wen family's money and came to act as lobbyists changed their faces.

A few of them were grumpy and threatened: "Hmph, surnamed Zheng, don't think we don't know what you're up to!" Don't you just want to make some articles about this matter, so that you can make more profits from it? Do you really think you are the master of the blue sky? ”

After hearing this, Zheng Michang put down the teacup in his hand and responded: "Hehe, did the official say that he is the master of the blue sky?" ”

"However, there are some people who accept money from others to act as lobbyists, not only do they fail to achieve their goals, but they also offend people! It's really ...... Gee. ”

When Zheng Michang said this, he also paused deliberately, and his face was full of mockery.

"Hmph, let's see!"

"This official is busy, so I won't send it to you."

Zheng Michang then picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said lightly.

……

Inside the prison, because it has already been dotted up and down, the youngest son of the Wen family, Wen Rong, is still living a good life, living in a single cell, and three meals a day are delivered from the outside by a special person, except that he cannot move around, it is no different from outside.

"Hey, my Young Master Wen, what are you doing here!"

Seeing that Wen Rong was facing the big lock hanging on the door of the cell, the jailer who was in charge of guarding him saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"It's too boring here, Young Master Ben wants to go out for a walk, what, do you have any opinions?"

Wen Rong was not changed into prisoner's clothes, he was still wearing the same clothes he had when he was first brought in, and he looked out of place in the entire prison.

When the jailer in charge of guarding him heard this, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, but then he changed his face to a smile and said flatteringly: "Wherever and where, Young Master Wen can leave whenever he wants!" It's just that the key is not with me at the moment, do you need me to get it for you? ”

"Of course, bring the key to Young Master Ben, Young Master Ben will be rewarded!" Wen Rong couldn't help but be excited when he heard the jailer's words.

"Please also ask Young Master Wen to wait for a while, and then go and get the key for Young Master Wen." With that, the jailer turned to leave.

"Okay, come back soon! Young Master Ben is waiting for you. Wen Rong didn't forget to instruct behind him.

Unbeknownst to him, the jailer disappeared for a long time after leaving the cell.

Wen Rong was hopeful at first, thinking that the jailer had been delayed by something on the road, but he waited until it was dark and did not see the jailer.

I heard a 'squeak' and a movement from outside the cell.

I saw Hai Rui walking into the cell with his hands behind his back, followed by two jailers, one of whom was the one who had promised Wen Rong to get him the key.

"Does this look like jail time?" Seeing this, Hai Rui turned his gaze to the jailer on the side and asked lightly.

"Report to your lordship, we are also forced to wait, it is all orders from above......"

Sensing Hai Rui's slightly scrutinizing gaze, the two jailers next to him couldn't help but panic a little.

Just kidding, this is a ruthless man who dares to take the guards of the Governor's Mansion and go to the Wen family to get people! Not only that, but at the gate of the Wen family, he killed a slave who obstructed the case, and now he has the support of the political envoy.

Hai Rui ignored the jailer's defense, and just ordered: "Since you are in prison, you have to look like you are in prison, you go and strip the clothes on his body to the official, and then change into prisoner's clothes!" ”

"My lord, this ......" Seeing this, the two jailers looked hesitant.

"What, do you want to disobey my officer's orders?" Hai Rui glanced at the two jailers and asked rhetorically.

"Young Master Wen, I'm offended!" After weighing the pros and cons, the two jailers gritted their teeth and approached Wen Rong step by step.

"What do you want to do? When Young Master Ben goes out, he will never let you go, ah! ”

From inside the cell, Wen Rong's wail was heard.

"My lord, my clothes have changed!" After the two jailers took off Wen Rong's clothes and changed into prison clothes, they came to Hai Rui's side and said respectfully.

"Well, you two did a good job, now change the cell to the official!" Hai Rui nodded and continued.

"My lord, I don't dare to wait ......"

Seeing that Hai Rui's demands were more and more excessive, the two jailers did not dare to follow his orders anymore.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of? If something happens, the official will take care of it for you! Do you think that you did not sin against him before? Like this kind of pampered young master, this official understands best, since he has already offended him, don't think about getting along well. ”

"Do you want to wait for him to get out of prison and take revenge on you and your family?"

Hai Rui's voice was like a heavy hammer, shattering all the luck in the hearts of these two jailers.

"My lord, where should I change him?"

"You don't have to be too deliberate, just a normal prison cell."

"Yes, sir!"

After making up their minds, the two jailers approached Wen Rong in the prison step by step.

"What are you doing? Young Master Ben doesn't want to go out, ah! ”
