A middle-aged man wearing a golden hair crown and a brocade robe quietly appeared behind Hu Yan, bowed and said:

"Lord Hu, I haven't seen you for a long time, Xiaomin came to visit rashly, and if you are presumptuous, please don't be surprised."

The slightly familiar voice made Hu Yan stop, retract the foot that was about to cross the threshold, and turned around with some confusion.

After seeing the person clearly, he squinted his eyes inexplicably.

Then, he restrained the emotions stirring in his heart, greeted the visitor with a solemn face and a slight squint in his eyes:

"It's you, Brother Wang, I haven't seen you for many years, you don't want to be a rich man in Yongchuan, what are you doing in Luojing?"

The person who came didn't care what Hu Yan's tone was, he only replied with a smile: "Xiaomin hasn't seen the adult for a long time, I miss it tightly, I heard that the adult has recently been called by His Majesty personally, and the official has been reinstated, Xiaomin specially came from Yongchuan to congratulate the adult, and reminisce about the past..."

As he spoke, he glanced at Hu Yan meaningfully, and then continued: "By the way, I came to Luojing to see the excitement, but it's a pity that I didn't have to see the excitement I wanted to see today." ”

Hu Yan thought for a moment, and there was a hint of clarity in his eyes, obviously thinking of something.

Or rather, he knew what this man meant by "lively".

By the way, apparently he did not believe it.

This so-called incidentality is often the main purpose.

But if you see through it, you don't have to say it, it's polite, there's no need to be serious.

So Hu Yan waved his hand, and then stretched out his hand to the door: "Hahaha, Brother Wang is coming from afar, please come in and sit inside." ”

"Ha~Ha, Master Hu, the little people will take the liberty to disturb."

The person who said kind words followed Hu Yan into the door, and then asked as he walked: "Master Hu, do you know, why is the excitement I want to see today gone?" ”

"No hurry, no hurry, let's sit down first, sit down and talk."

After that, Hu Yan led the visitor to the living room and sat down, and ordered the servant to serve tea, and then asked, "Brother Wang wants to ask about Xia Yan, right?" What, he offended you? ”

The person who came replied: "Since Master Hu knows what Xiaomin said, then Xiaomin will say it directly." ”

He coughed deliberately twice, cleared his throat, and then continued: "Xiaomin just heard that today is the day when Xia Yan's dog official subjugates the law, so he made a special trip to the execution ground today to wait, as for offending ......."

Speaking of this, he suddenly snorted coldly.

"Hmph, he Xia Yan has been suppressing all the big clans in Yongchuan since he succeeded Lord Hu as the commander of Yongchuan County, and he has done all the evil things, our Wang family is the first in Yongchuan to bear the brunt of nature, and has been targeted by this dog official, which has made my Wang family's various businesses plummet, and the loss of countless silver money, now God has opened his eyes, this dog official has finally surrendered to the law, although the small people can't use their hands, but watching other people's heads fall to the ground, they can also solve the hatred in the hearts of the small people, how do you know today... There was no dog officer among the condemned ministers. ”

Saying that, he arched his hand to Hu Yan and asked, "Dare to ask Lord Hu, but Xiaomin misremembered the sentence, and the dog official was not beheaded today?" ”

The person who came was Wang Licheng, a famous gentleman in Yongchuan County.

The Wang family where he belonged used to be just a small family with a little wealth, and it was only by hooking up with Hu Yan of Yongchuan County at that time that he slowly grew bigger and became the largest wealthy family in Yongchuan.

Hu Yan glanced at him, presumably after he was promoted, the new Yongchuan County Ling Xia Yan had too much appetite, and his appearance was too ugly, which caused the dissatisfaction of the Yongchuan wealthy family headed by the Wang family......

No wonder this guy fell so quickly, as soon as the Queen Mother was brought down, he was cold.

I think these wealthy families must have been behind the scenes.

When thinking like this, he picked up the teacup, took a sip casually, and then put it down and said: "Brother Wang heard it right, today is the day of Xia Yan's execution, but today someone in the court asked for a retrial of Xia Yan's case, and His Majesty has approved it, so Xia Yan's death sentence is suspended, and a decision will be made when the case is finalized." ”

"What?!" Wang Licheng said eagerly: "Your Majesty is confused! ”

"Brother Wang is cautious!" Hu Yan hurriedly stopped him from continuing, in case he said such a rebellious thing.

You must know that now the entire Luojing City is under the control of the Cangming Army, and the extremely powerful Xuanwu Wei has replaced the embroidered guard, and the strongest one in the guard has established the Xuanji Wei, which is the emperor's eyes and ears.

If you don't pay attention, you risk going to prison, let alone slandering Your Majesty.

Wang Licheng knew that his words were inappropriate, but he couldn't help but say: "The evidence in Xia Yan's case is conclusive and ironclad, so why is there any need for a retrial?" Isn't this a waste of time, a waste of manpower and material resources? ”

After a pause, he said again with a look of disbelief:

"Lord Hu, as a member of the Criminal Department, didn't you object to this extremely stupid proposal?"

Hu Yan snorted coldly, "Brother Wang doesn't know, the person who complained is deeply favored by His Majesty, and this official is soft-spoken, what's the use of objecting?" ”

"This ......," Wang Licheng hesitated.

"Your Majesty naturally has a reason for doing this." Hu Yan said bluntly, "This official, as a courtier, must not disobey His Majesty's wishes, otherwise what is the difference between him and the rebellious demon queen line?" ”

Wang Licheng couldn't help but exhale when he heard this.

Your Majesty Chrysostom said that since he said that he would be retried, then Xia Yan's matter is a foregone conclusion, and we can only see how the retrial will be next.

"So, who is in charge of overseeing this case?"

"Hmph."

Hu Yan's face instantly had a look of displeasure, and he couldn't help but remember that when he was about to go to court, the empress directly ordered Lu Chen to be in charge of supervising this case.

"Your Majesty appointed Lu Chen, who is the one who went to the retrial, and is responsible for urging the Three Law Divisions to retry the case."

Hearing this, Wang Licheng immediately secretly wrote down this name that made him a little sore.

.........

Meanwhile.

Yongchuan County.

Su Yue is a famous beautiful village aunt in ten miles and eight townships, and she is free today, so she went to the county with her parents to purchase things, but she happened to meet Wang Yi, a famous gentleman of the Wang family, who went to the street to make a fortune.

As soon as he saw Su Yue, his eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward to block Su Yue's family.

"Huh? Where is the little lady? If you have time, why don't you go back to the house with the master to enjoy the flowers and drink some wine? ”

Su Yue disobeyed, and with the help of her parents, she desperately got rid of Wang Yi's entanglement.

Then the family didn't bother to buy things, so they hurried home.

But they didn't find that as soon as their family left the gate of the county, they were followed by an obscene figure, and they were obscenely all the way to Shangyun Village, which was the little guy who went out with Wang Yi today.

After the little servant found out where the girl lived, he immediately went back to the county seat and informed Wang Yi.

Wang Yi was smacking the day's amazement at this time, and at the same time secretly annoyed by the family's ignorance.

When the little girl came back, he saw that his young master's mind was all on the girl, so he immediately smiled, and then leaned into Wang Yi's ear and whispered a few words.

After a while, Wang Yi suddenly laughed lewdly.

At this time, the little guy said again: "Young master, you might as well go directly to the door and bring it into the house, this woman, don't look at her making trouble now, but as long as the raw rice is cooked into cooked rice, everything will only depend on you, young master, when the time comes... Hey hey ......"

After hearing this, Wang Yi immediately felt that this was the truth, and he laughed.

Early the next morning, Wang Yi came to the village with a group of small servants, and knocked on the door of Su Yue's house with the guidance of the little servants.

The knocking sound of the door panel immediately attracted the attention of Su Yue, who was working in the small courtyard, only to see her stand up and ask loudly: "Who?" ”

The crisp woman's voice in the door sounded in Wang Yi's ears, and the whole body was comfortable like a miracle elixir, and he motioned for the little girl to continue knocking.

Su Yue didn't hear a response, and the knock on the door was so eager, so she had to step forward and open the door.

I saw that the leader outside was the person who harassed the county town a few days ago, and I couldn't help but be startled, and I was about to close the courtyard door.

But he didn't want to, Wang Yi signaled the little maid to break in when Su Yue was about to close the courtyard door, and then laughed: "Little lady, what are you doing to close the door so quickly, but my son has brought a generous gift." ”

Wang Yi wanted to pull Su Yue as he spoke.

"Ahh Su Yue shouted in fright while dodging, "Who... What are you doing?! ”

The violent struggles and exclamations soon attracted the neighbor's aunt to come.

Seeing the scene in the courtyard of the Su family, the eldest aunt suddenly felt bad, and immediately shouted: "Come on, there is a villain from the Su Laohan family!" ”

After a few words, he called the villagers who had not had time to go out to work in the fields.

The villagers of Shangyun Village were surprisingly united, and when they saw that someone was bullying the village flower of their village, they immediately did not hesitate to fight up, knocking the group of small people aside, and then blocking Su Yue behind him, glaring at Wang Yi and the others.

"Hmph."

Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable to him, and the plan was basically in vain, Wang Yi suddenly snorted coldly with an unhappy face.

"You Diao people dare to do good things to the master, do you know who the master is?!"

Saying that, without waiting for everyone to respond, he said with an unspeakable face: "Master, I am the eldest son of the Wang family, the first wealthy family in Yongchuan, if I offend me, I will offend the entire Wang family, and if you know each other, you should hurry up and get out of the way, this matter can be regarded as if it never happened, otherwise... The master will tell you to walk around if you can't eat! ”

"Phew!"

What responded to him was a large mouthful of thick phlegm.

But he saw a man dressed in sackcloth stand up and glared at Wang Yi without fear.

"It's just a gentleman, a dog-like character, what's the big deal?"

When the words fell, the companion on the side took over the conversation and said angrily: "That's right, it's just scum, what can we do?" ”

"Lord Xia said that the prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people! The law of the king is greater than the sky! Even the royal family is like this, what kind of thing are you? ”

"If you dare to insult us, we will definitely ask the county magistrate to administer justice for us!"

"That's right! The county magistrate is the lord of the blue sky, and he will definitely make decisions for the good people such as us! ”

"Yongchuan has the Qingtian Lord here, we are fearless!"

“.......”

The villagers, you and I said a word, and completely overwhelmed Wang Yi's side in terms of momentum.

"Hahaha!"

Wang Yi suddenly burst out laughing.

"You say Xia Yan, that dog official? Ha ha! ”

"That guy bribed the henchmen of the demon queen, robbed the family property of our big clan with various names, committed a lot of crimes in Yongchuan, made the heavens angry and resentful, and now he has finally been arrested, he must be sentenced to death, maybe he has already been beheaded, you actually expect a dead person to stand up for you? It's better to count on him than to count on me, master, to be merciful! ”

"Hahaha! It's really laughing to death! “

Hearing this, some villagers couldn't help but look stunned.

"You fart!"

At this time, an old man choked out: "The county master will not have an accident!" ”

"That's it!" The eldest lady on the side said quickly, "We have already written to present our feelings, as long as the Qingtian Lord in the capital reads the Chen invitation we are waiting for, he will definitely know that the county magistrate has been wronged!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the old man's face suddenly changed.

"Shut up!"

He tried to stop the eldest mother.

But the words spoken are like water that has been spilled, and there is no way to get it back.

The eldest lady knew that she had said the wrong thing, and she didn't dare to squeak again.

You must know that this is the secret of several villages, and it is also the last way for the county magistrate to live, once these rich and unkind wealthy families know, the consequences are unimaginable.

Wang Yi didn't expect to snatch a girl on a whim, and unexpectedly learned that such a major event related to his own interests was unexpectedly heard, and he couldn't help laughing, "You guys wait, see if that Xia Yan will be finished!" ”

After saying that, he proudly led a group of beaten little guys with blue noses and swollen faces, laughing wildly and walking away.
