"What did you say?" Master Yue didn't know why, but a trace of anger suddenly appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Wen Ruyan sneered in his heart, but he still clasped his fists at him quickly, and said with fear and sincerity: "I don't know why my lord is angry. If Xiaosheng is rude, please tell me clearly."

Master Yue got up and walked in front of Wen Ruyan, then looked at him and asked, "How much did you say the post of county magistrate is worth?"

Wen Ruyan seemed to have realized it suddenly, and immediately said, "It's worth 10 taels of silver, Xiaosheng. Xiaosheng just said it wrong just now."

It's okay if he doesn't explain it, but with this explanation, Master Yue's complexion became even worse.

"Since you can find out about this matter, the people behind you must have reminded you of the seriousness of this matter. You'd better tell the truth. If you dare to conceal it, don't blame me for being rude!"

Hearing this, Wen Ruyan's body trembled, and a look of panic appeared on his face.

Mr. Yue has been in the officialdom for many years, how can he not have such eyesight?Wen Ruyan's performance, in his opinion, what is it if he is not guilty?
He sneered and said, "Have you met Pan Yu before?"

Wen Ruyan nodded quickly.

"Then what is the price he gave you?"

Wen Ruyan hesitated and said: "One hundred thousand"

"How much!" Lord Yue shouted angrily.

Wen Ruyan was so frightened that his spirit seemed to be destroyed at this moment, and his body shook even more violently. Under Master Yue's fierce gaze, he hurriedly said, "Ten to fifteen thousand taels. "

Mr. Yue stared at him firmly, taking in all the panic in his eyes, then frowned slightly, thought carefully, and then said: "What did he tell you at that time, why don't you tell me immediately now?" Come to me in a fifty-fifty way, and you must not hide anything, otherwise no one will be able to save you."

Wen Ruyan gently wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and then whispered: "Master Pan told Xiaosheng that if he wanted to become a magistrate, he would have to pay at least 15 taels of silver, and he would pay him in two installments. He was given 10 taels for the first time, and after Xiaosheng became the magistrate of Pinghe County, he was paid another 5 taels, and Xiaosheng was told not to disclose the matter, otherwise the county magistrate Xiaosheng would not be able to sit comfortably, saying Jia Wenxue is my lesson from the past. In the end, I was reminded that Pinghe County is rich in oil and water, and it will not take long to get them all back. Xiaosheng just blurted out subconsciously, and please Master Yue not to tell Master Pan about this. Otherwise, Xiaosheng will have a hard time in the future!"

After hearing what he said, Master Yue sneered and said, "What a Pan Yu, I didn't expect you to keep a hand."

He asked Wen Ruyan again: "What else did he say? You came to my place today, but he ordered you?"

Wen Ruyan immediately shook his head and said, "Of course not, Mr. Pan didn't know that I would come to see you. This was just Xiaosheng's private decision. In addition to giving you 1000 taels, I also gave Commander Mr. Wu, Mr. Shu Ling sent 500 taels of silver by himself, thinking that if you can take care of the three adults, Xiaosheng will be like a fish in water in Pinghe County, and even if he wants to go further in the future, it is not impossible."

After Wen Ruyan and the others left Yuefu, Ji Yuan wanted to ask him something, but was interrupted by Wen Ruyan.

I saw him staring ahead, and said softly: "There are people following us, don't talk, we will talk later."

When Ji Yuan heard this, he immediately kept silent, it was all taught by Wen Ruyan, so naturally no one looked back at this time.

Ding Ben of the Yue Mansion was hanging behind Wen Ruyan and the others all the way, seeing them walk into a restaurant, he lowered his head for a moment to think about it, and then followed into it.But after he went in and looked upstairs and downstairs, he was suddenly dumbfounded. The three of them disappeared inexplicably.

After the three of Wen Ruyan came out from the back door of the restaurant, they made several turns and turns, and finally reached the door of a private house. Ji Yuan knocked on the door lightly three times, and Ji Ning opened the door to greet the three of them. went in.

"Your Highness, what did you do today? Why did I hear that Yue was angry outside?" Ji Yuan finally had a chance to speak.

Wen Ruyan shook his head and smiled, "I just planted a seed of doubt in his heart."

"Seed of doubt?" Ji Yuan was at a loss.

After Wen Ruyan sat down, she slowly said all her plans.

After he finished speaking, Ji Yuan said blankly: "Will the person surnamed Yue believe it?"

Wen Ruyan shook his head, and said: "He has been an official for many years, so it's impossible for him to be fooled so easily by a stranger like me with unknown identity and origin. Otherwise, why would he find someone to follow us?"

"Then, isn't your work all in vain? Instead, you paid us 1000 taels of silver." Ji Yuan said with a heartbroken face.

Wen Ruyan chuckled, and said, "Ji Ning and Ji Qiu have inquired about this guy for so long, and know that he is suspicious by nature, so I deliberately made him suspicious. They did this together, and a county magistrate is worth 10 taels For Baiyin, the person surnamed Yue has to hand over at least 8 taels to the upper echelons, and the remaining 2 taels are shared among them, and the one surnamed Yue has the highest official position among these people, so the benefits he gets are naturally It is understandable to ask for more, but now he suddenly heard that his subordinate officials have obtained more benefits than him, and the amount has reached an unbelievable level. Do you think he will be angry? ?A greedy person will always lose his mind in the face of interests. At this time, he will definitely rather believe what he has than believe what he has not. When he sees Pan Yu again, he will not speak politely, and even warn him, threaten he!"

Hearing so much from him, Ji Yuan still has some vague understanding.

"Then what do you mean, is that Yue who is going to call Pan Yu over now?"

Wen Ruyan shook his head: "No, according to the rules you have learned from following Pan Yu, Pan Yu will naturally go to Yuefu tonight. Even if he doubts and gets angry now, he will wait until night."

"That's right, it's today." Ji Ning counted the days with his head down, and said firmly.

"But I still haven't figured out what you're going to do?" Ji Yuan felt like an idiot, after hearing so much from Wen Ruyan, he still didn't understand what he meant.

Wen Ruyan glanced at him lightly, and then said inexplicably, "Tell me, if someone wants to kill Pan Yu after he comes out of Yuefu tonight, what will he do?"

"Didn't you say that Yue didn't believe it? How could he kill Pan Yu?"

"Who said that Yue is going to kill him?"

"Your Highness, do you want to...?"

An inexplicable smile suddenly appeared on Wen Ruyan's face.

"The moon is dark and the wind is high, it's time to kill!"
