Chapter 158: Wen Ming's Fear
"Let's go! We're going to meet the salt overseer...... And the poor homemaker! His tone was playful, even bantering.
After offending Yun Ze, this Hou family master is destined to follow in the footsteps of the Zheng and Huang families. wants to harm Yun Ze, but unfortunately, he doesn't have that ability, and he doesn't have that ability.
Lu Qing and Master Hu came to the main hall of the mansion, Wen Ming and Hou Junhao happened to be taken to the main hall, and outside the hall were more than a dozen soldiers of the salt supervision army.
"Lord Lu, you are such a great official, my nephew died unexpectedly, you didn't find out the truth, but instead, you charged my nephew with a charge of insult, is this how you are an official!"
As soon as Wen Ming entered the court, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his official authority overflowed, and he opened his mouth to question Lu Qing. Don't look at him as just a salt supervisor, but the official is crushing people to death. He was a grade higher than Lu Qing.
Hou Junhao, who was behind him, saw this scene and had a happy look on his face. There was a sense of pride in my heart. Thinking about the previous grievances, and thinking about the fact that now that he has Wen Ming's support, he is about to find a place again, he almost wants to scold Lu Qing in the court, and then arrest Yun Ze, torture and humiliate him fiercely, and finally, he personally sends Yun Ze on the road.
"Lord Lu, with Lord Wen here today, you have to enforce the law impartially. Otherwise, Lord Wen will be a copy of you...... Let you not be safe. Maybe he was too proud in his heart, even if he was a citizen and Lu Qing was an official, Hou Junhao couldn't help but sneer at Lu Qing.
In the hall, when Lu Qing heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then looked at Wen Ming on the side, and his mouth hooked slightly: "Lord Wen, let's talk about this matter separately for the time being, why don't we go in and talk about it!" ”
Lu Qing looked at Wen Ming with a dark expression and inexplicable, and there were many meanings in his eyes as if he wanted to express them.
Although Wen Ming was greedy, he was not a fool, and he knew that Lu Qing seemed to have something to say to him. Although he was a little dissatisfied, he still nodded. He got up and walked towards the inner hall.
Master Hu got Lu Qing's instructions and waited in the court, he and a few people looked at Hou Junhao with a tiger's eye.
Hou Junhao wanted to stop Wen Ming by speaking out, but he was afraid of causing Wen Ming's displeasure, so he could only swallow his words back. But he had a faint premonition in his heart.
He was afraid that Lu Qing would tell Wen Ming about Yun Ze's background, but thinking about it, he put his mind at ease, although Yun Ze seemed to have a good relationship with Luo Xuan and the King of Danyang County.
But to say that these two people dared to go against the Wen family for the sake of Yun Ze, he felt that it was impossible. Moreover, Wen Ming wants enough benefits. After obtaining the refined salt process, Wen Ming's personal benefits. The list is endless.
He didn't believe that Wen Ming would give up these interests. And I believe that Yun Ze will have a very hard background, so he is still very confident, and Wen Ming should not let Yun Ze go.
In the inner hall, Lu Qing asked Wen Ming to sit down, and after someone brought tea, he smiled slightly and said to Wen Ming: "Lord Wen, this time I am here for Yun Ze." If the adult believes the lower official, the lower official can reveal one or two to the adult! ”
Lu Qing took a sip of tea and looked at Wen Ming lightly.
Wen Ming frowned when he heard this, knowing that Lu Qing would be surprised by that Yun Ze. And after daring to offend the Wen family, he also felt that there was something he didn't know.
"Lord Lu, please speak ......," he took a sip of tea and said lightly.
"Lord Wen, Hou Junhao shouldn't have told you about the relationship between Yun Zeyun Gongzi and the King of Danyang County and Luo Xuan! If not, the lower officials will talk about it in detail for adults! ”
Lu Qing said with a smile.
As soon as he said this, Wen Ming's heart was sudden, and he vaguely understood why Lu Qing was willing to help Yun Ze. It turned out that there was a Danyang county king behind Yun Ze.
The identity of a prince is enough for Song Rui to walk sideways in Ningzhou, but the problem is that Song Rui is still the left minister. The head of all the ministers!
He Wen Ming would not dare to recruit an existence like Song Rui unless he was impatient. However, he still had some doubts in his heart, how could a small people have such a backer as the king of Danyang County.
It's just that as Lu Qing told the past and friendship between Yun Ze and Song Rui, cold sweat broke out on Wen Ming's head. The whole person was about to be stupefied.
Don't talk about the king of Danyang County, let's just say that Luo Xuan, the regimental training envoy, has more military power than him. 2,000 city guards. If he dared to take Yun Ze, it was estimated that Luo Xuan might take it.
With Luo Xuan's fiery temper, it is possible to kill him. The more Wen Ming thought about it, the more afraid he became, and of course, the more he thought about it, the more he hated it! He almost wanted to beat Hou Dong to death on the spot.
This product almost killed him for the sake of other people's salt-making technology, if he really moved Yun Ze, it is estimated that Song Rui will not kill him, and Luo Xuan will not let him go.
People kept saying that Yun Ze was his son-in-law. It can be seen that he attaches great importance to Yun Ze. Luo Xuan only has one son and one daughter, especially for his daughter, who is about to go to heaven.
It is conceivable that if he really harmed Yun Ze, Luo Xuan would definitely kill his entire family with a knife.
"Lord Lu, thank you for reminding me, this official has inherited your favor...... The next official still has something to do, so he will take the first step! Wen Ming's face turned a little pale at this time, although he didn't believe it just based on Lu Qing's one-sided words.
But the key problem is that a shrewd person like Lu Qing actually supports Yun Ze, even if he is conceited, he believes Lu Qing's words a little.
Now he just wants to leave quickly, send someone to the city to investigate, and then make a decision, if what Lu Qing said is true. Then he'll have to think about what to do!
He left the back hall quickly, and when he walked to the outer hall, Hou Junhao, who was waiting a little impatiently, hurriedly greeted him.
"Uncle...... Dong'er's business...... You ......" At this time, Hou Junhao was still thinking about his son, after all, his son's body was still being thrown in the prison of the government office, and if he didn't collect the corpse, it would probably stink.
It's just that as soon as his words came to this, Wen Ming snorted coldly.
"Shut up...... Your son's matter, solve it yourself, the official still has something to do, go first......" Wen Ming ignored the stunned Hou Junhao, turned around and left with his subordinates.
As soon as he left the palace, he sent his men to the city to inquire about Yun Ze and the king of Danyang County and Luo Xuan. Since Lu Qing said that the entire Danyang City knew about it, then find someone to ask, and it will be clear!
Just as Wen Ming left, Lu Qing came out of the inner hall, he looked at Hou Junhao with a smile, and said jokingly: "Hou Junhao, your son's body, are you going to redeem it now, or do you want to continue to stay in the mansion, if you don't want to redeem it, it doesn't matter, in order to prevent your son's body from smelling in the mansion prison, this official doesn't mind sending your son's body to feed the dog!" ”
As soon as Lu Qing said this, Hou Junhao looked shocked, he was still very proud just now, but how could he have thought that not long after Wen Ming entered, the situation changed.
He knew that Wen Ming probably wouldn't help him now, if he really didn't care about his son's body, the final result would definitely be that his son was thrown away and fed to the dog.
Although Hou Junhao was angry and unwilling in his heart, he could only take the money to ransom the corpse first, and then think about finding Wen Ming later. He didn't believe that Wen Ming would not help him for the sake of profit.
No matter how jealous Wen Ming was of Yun Ze, he was also ready to use his three-inch tongue to fool the other party to help him avenge himself.
Hou Junhao, who was unwilling, handed over 5,000 taels and took away his son's body. Not long after he left, Yun Ze came to the mansion.
The catcher quickly informed him that the salt warden had come to ask for trouble, and that he wanted to come and find out what was going on. As soon as he arrived at the mansion, he heard Lu Qing say that the salt supervisor had scared Wen Ming away.
Yun Ze frowned, his eyes flickered, it seemed that his relationship with the King of Danyang County and Luo Xuan was still somewhat useful.
Yun Ze was still thinking about not giving the salt supervisor a chance to stumble, so he asked Luo Xuan to help him redeem the salt paperwork.
Now it seems that this ransom document is temporarily useless, and he is afraid that he will not need to spend too much effort to deal with the Hou family. This salt envoy can be seen.
Yun Ze doesn't feel that he can second the air every second, nor does he feel that he can do everything alone, sometimes he still needs helpers.
Whether it is his own henchman or a helper from the outside world, this salt supervisor may be able to help him solve the matter of the salt mine. After all, the other party is the official in charge of this.
As long as you have a relationship of interest with the other party, nothing is unsolvable. For example, Yun Ze tied Lu Qing and Master Hu with interests.
This time, if these two do not cooperate, or make a stumbling block for themselves, Yun Ze may retreat with his whole body relying on the relationship between Luo Xuan and Song Rui.
However, if everything depends on Luo Xuan and the King of Danyang County, it will seem that he is too useless. Therefore, Yunze also needs its own network. This salt warden can be drawn into his camp.
Not to mention, Yun Ze didn't just kill a Hou Dong to Hou Jia. Since there is already a great feud between life and death, how can Yun Ze still leave them. Besides, the Hou family is rich and unkind, and he has a black hand and a poisonous heart.
For the sake of profit, they give the people poisonous salt, how can such garbage and wicked people let them survive in the world.
Yun Ze was still thinking about destroying the Hou family, it might take a long time, but now, it seems that it is not needed. As long as the salt warden is willing to cooperate. The destruction of the Houjia is not far away.
As for the relationship between the Hou family and the Wen family, Yun Ze also asked people to check that Hou Junhao and the Wen family are indeed in-laws, and Hou Dong is even the nephew of the Wen family.
But the Wen family and Hou Dong's kinship, now there are only a few juniors left, and it is estimated that the relationship with the Hou family is not close. If it weren't for the Hou family's interests in the salt road business, the Wen family would probably treat Hou Junhao as a fart.
Besides, Hou Junhao's original partner has died a long time ago, and now that Hou Dong is dead again, he still has a fart relationship with the Wen family. If he has enough benefits, Wen Ming will definitely be the first to stand up and help him wait for Junhao together.
He heard from Lu Qing that Wen Ming was now in the official post, and Yun Ze rushed over, it was necessary for him to have a good chat with this salt envoy and the Wen family! Waiting! Then wait for the time of death!
