Chapter 153 Curves
The moon was crescent, and when they returned to the ruined temple, it was already dusk in the middle of the night.

Everyone sat in the yard, but no one wanted to talk.

It is obvious that the case is at a stalemate now. The officials avoided seeing them for various reasons, but the long-term workers and supervisors harassed and drove them away when they saw them, and beat them with mounds of dirt and stones. There is no way to investigate the case properly.

Fang Wu sighed and said, "At the beginning, I knew that this case was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, but I never thought that we would be lost by the other party's unilateral rejection."

She had a sad expression on her face, and her eyes were rolling around, as if wondering if there was any way to do it.

Zhou She said: "Well, isn't that Zhang Wei willing to help us? Let him continue to go back to work, and then lead out the supervisor, and bring the supervisor back for questioning."

Needless to say, Qin Sihan told him directly, "No way. You can't do it if you beat him up." This method is not impossible, but there are too many opportunities for people to take advantage of in the later stage.

Therefore, this method is a next step, and it is really unnecessary to do it at this time.

"It's because the subordinates are incompetent," Zhou She said.

Qin Sihan patted him and didn't say anything. He flipped the wheelchair and turned around in the yard. For a while, only the sound of gurgling could be heard in the yard.

"Let's not go to the field, let's see if we can find another way to get to the farmer's house." Fang Wu said.

"That's a way." Bai An also agreed.

Starting from the direction of Chang Gong and officials is the only option for this case.

After Bai An finished speaking, everyone just nodded, found the map of the town and looked through it.

Suddenly, Fang Wu raised his head and looked sideways at Tan Sihan who was shaking the car in the yard, and said, "By the way, Young Master Tan, didn't the young master say to find a way to check the annual harvest in the town and where it went, but there are results."

Fang Wu was really a little strange, Tan Sihan sat on the wheelchair after he came back, spinning the wheelchair around, he was not really crippled, wouldn't it be troublesome.

Tan Sihan didn't speak, he looked at Zhou She.

"I'm afraid you want to ask Eunuch Bai about this matter. Brother Bai settled for Eunuch," Zhou She said.

"Please. Your Majesty asked him to come and serve me. He is fine. He hasn't seen anyone after a day's rest." Tan Sihan rolled her eyes when she heard this and ordered.

Zhou She quickly responded and retreated.

Fang Wu turned to Ji Xuan helplessly and said, "Master, I don't think we can just rely on long-term workers to do things, we still have to find a way to meet these officials."

Ji Xuan nodded.

"I don't know where Mr. Wang is. Why don't you send him a letter and ask him to meet the officials who have had a close relationship with him in other ways, and see if he can know anything?"

After a while, Fang Wu raised her head, looked at Ji Xuan and asked, she looked at Ji Xuan with crooked eyes, with a light in her eyes, and subconsciously made Ji Xuan stunned.

Ji Xuan looked at Fang Wu, and it took a while to realize what she was talking about.He just said, "Okay, I'll write to Wang Qi to see if there's anything I can do."

Seeing that Ji Xuan agreed to come down, Fang Wu nodded, and it could only be like this for the time being.

"Who is always in this town?" Tan Sihan asked suddenly.

"It's Xu Wei." Bai An looked at the file and said.

"What are you doing?" Several people were taken aback, it seemed that this person had appeared in the ears of everyone for the first time.

Never heard of it before.

"Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of Industry, is a colleague of Ren Ye, and they basically work together in the same government," Zhang Xuan said.He had heard about this Xu Wei, and the other party basically didn't care about other matters except his own political affairs, and many officials in the court had no friendship with him, and there was no mention of this person in Ren Ye's life.

However, these two people are in the same yamen, and they don't see each other when they look up, how could they not see each other?Yes, this is indeed doubtful.

Qin Sihan nodded, expressed understanding and continued to ask: "Is this Xu Wei our first post today?"

"Yes." Ji Xuan said.

Tan Sihan didn't ask any more questions, but obviously went back.The people in the officialdom are all old foxes. When they heard the wind, it was too late to hide. How could they wait for them to come to ask questions?

"By the way, is this Xu Wei related to Xu Kun?" Bai An asked suddenly.

"Xu Kun?" Everyone present was taken aback, looking at Bai An with their eyes.

Dotted with stars, under the moonlight, with candlelight flickering, Bai An stuttered a little, scratched his head unconsciously, then licked his lips and said: "Yes, part of the land in this town hangs on Ren Ye, The other part hangs on Xu Kun's body."

Probably because this Xu Kun is too insignificant, so that everyone has no memory.

After Bai An finished speaking, no one responded for a long time. It was obvious that no one knew the answer.

Fang Wu came to his senses and searched for the biographies of the two people in a pile of files.

Only the rustling sound of turning the pages of the book can be heard,

"No, these two people just have the same surname." As he spoke, Fang Wu shook his head and said.

Tan Sihan came over, picked up two biographical documents, and looked at the two faces but didn't see anything.

Still opened the mouth and said: "We have to find a way to meet these two people, or the family members of these two people, maybe we can know something. We can only save the country like this."

There is really no way to get any visible news from the long-term workers and officials.Therefore, we can only start from the edge.

Fang Wu nodded and said, "Please trouble me, my lord. Find a way to find out the addresses of these two families. I haven't written them down in my life." She looked at Tan Sihan and said helplessly. It is also a strange thing to say.

Tan Sihan nodded, clapped his hands, and a person fell down from the air, kneeling with his back straight.

"Find out where the lives of these two people are." As he spoke, Tan Sihan handed the biography of the two to the person kneeling on the ground.

The man took it over and took a look, then returned the item to Tan Sihan, and disappeared into the yard.

At this time, Zhou She and Eunuch Bai entered the yard one after the other, and handed over to Tan Sihan.The latter bent down and pulled out the item from his sleeve and handed it to Tan Sihan.

Qin Sihan opened it and took a look.

There is a total of [-] shi of grain, which will be divided into three parts every year, one part will be sent to Beijing, the other part will be shared equally among the officials, and the other part will be sent to the market outside or sold in restaurants.

Ten thousand stones is the annual consumption of half a Daman commoner.

Tan Sihan took a look and gave the things to Ji Xuan.Then he turned his head and said to Mr. Bai: "Tell your master about this, and tell him to see what Daman's officials look like."

Eunuch Bai hurriedly said: "Young Master, don't worry, this matter has been reported to His Majesty."

How could he not tell His Majesty about such a big matter?This is not one stone, two stones, but ten thousand stones.

I don't know how many officials will be affected, and I don't know how much the two Highnesses participated in, or there are others in it.
