Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

Jizhou Mansion, a private garden, is surrounded by prosperity, with gurgling water and luxurious mansions looming among them.

This is the most central area of ​​Jizhou Prefecture, and it is also the area with the highest land prices. Those who live here are definitely not ordinary rich people. If they don't have some extraordinary skills, they are absolutely not qualified.

And the vice president of the Merchant Alliance, Ying Wencai, is the owner of this mansion.

Today is the full moon banquet of Ying Wencai's youngest son. The banquet started ten days ago and will last for a whole month.

The daily consumption of wine and delicacies is measured in kilograms.

The red carpet used as a corridor in the foyer alone is thousands of feet long, and the long candles on both sides must be burned continuously for thirty days and nights. No extinguishing or core breakage is allowed in the middle, and a dedicated person must constantly add lamp oil. and wick.

All the prominent people in Jizhou Mansion were also invited to attend the banquet.

If there are no invitees, you have to ask someone to go through the door to get an invitation.

This invitation is the face of a wealthy man from Jizhou Prefecture.

On the black market, invitations like this have been sold for as much as one thousand taels each.

Of course, the vice president of the Jizhou Prefecture Business Alliance does not have such face.

Ying Wencai's other identity - the nephew of Lu Yu, a congressman in the capital, is the key point that makes everyone flock to him.

Who is Lu Yu? He is a confidant of the Lord Consul, one of the seven major congressmen in the capital, and a truly powerful person. If he can be recommended by Ying Wencai, if he can have the slightest relationship with Lu Yu, what will happen to him? Isn't wealth easy to get?

Therefore, in the entire Jizhou Prefecture, whether the president of the parliament or the president of the business alliance, there must be three points of civil and financial courtesy.

At this time, in the deepest part of Ying's garden, surrounded by lush forests and gurgling water, was the most luxurious hall in the entire mansion.

Ying Wencai was holding a charming woman with his arm, lifting her hand up and down while listening to the report of his subordinates.

"President, Chen Lu has been thrown into prison. A family of thirteen, except for his daughter Chen Juan'er, whose whereabouts are unknown, the rest of them have also been put under control. My subordinates guarantee that the entire Jizhou Mansion will be safe when the consul arrives. At this time, no one will dare to gossip and ruin your reputation!"

"Huh?" Ying Wencai, who had a wretched look on his face a second ago and kept kneading his hands, immediately clenched his stubby fingers when he heard that another woman had escaped. The woman in his arms felt pain and screamed subconsciously. , and immediately fell silent, not daring to make any movement, and could only frown and endure the pain on his body.

The servant standing not far away just lowered his head, sweating heavily, but he didn't dare to raise his eyes.

A servant once took a secret look at Ying Wencai's concubine. After Ying Wencai saw it, his eyes were gouged out the next day, his limbs and limbs were removed, and she was thrown into a cesspit and drowned alive.

Therefore, learning from the past, no one dared to go beyond the rules in the slightest in front of Ying Wencai.

"There is another fish that slipped through the net, and she is his own daughter." Ying Wencai laughed angrily and looked at his subordinates with a ferocious smile: "I said that even an ant from the Chen family must be trampled to death to ensure that During Wang Qi's visit to Jizhou, there were no mistakes or omissions! But at this critical moment, you told me that there is another fish that slipped through the net? "

"Sir, in three hours, before dawn, even if the entire Jizhou Mansion is turned upside down, my subordinates will definitely find him!" Jiang Wan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then hurriedly issued a military order: "If we can't catch him, Come see me, little one!"

"Do I want your fucking head to be used as a urinal!" Ying Wencai pushed the woman in his arms away, picked up a white jade Guanyin on the table, and threw it at Jiang Wan.

boom!

Baiyu Guanyin flew past Jiang Wan's ear and hit the door frame not far away, shattering into pieces.

But Jiang Wan still didn't dare to move.

"Keep your head on your neck for now. If you don't find the person within three hours, you're going to be used as a urinal!" Ying Wencai stared at Jiang Wan coldly. He uttered one word: "Get out!"

As if he was being pardoned, Jiang Wan bowed and hurriedly backed away while saying yes.

call.

After Jiang Wan left, Ying Wencai lowered his eyes, anger almost overflowing from his eyes. He glanced at the shivering woman beside him, and Ying Wencai immediately sneered, with a hint of cruelty: "Take off your clothes."

The woman didn't dare to resist even a little bit, and she didn't care if anyone else came in in broad daylight. Her fingers had already landed on the pink tie and started to unbutton it.

Deng Deng Deng!

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door.

"Sir, the Chairman of the Council, Jin Zhongcun, wants to see you!" The servant's voice sounded at the right time. The woman who was taking off her clothes shook almost subconsciously, and a feeling of surviving a disaster emerged from the bottom of her heart.

The president of the parliament is the nominal supreme governor of the entire Jizhou Prefecture, and is also a senior official who has the right to directly contact the capital's major congressmen.

Therefore, even Ying Wencai, who has a profound background, still has to give him some face.

Glancing at the shivering woman, Ying Wencai sneered: "You go down first and wait in my room later."

"My slave, I obey." The woman nodded, turned and left.

"Let the Speaker of Parliament come in!" Ying Wencai leaned his back on the chair and closed his eyes slightly, as if he could hear the cheerful sounds of singing and dancing in the distance.

Not long after, Ying Wencai slowly opened his eyes when he heard the sound of a chair beside him.

"President Jin, why are you here?" Ying Wencai made no move and just asked.

"The latest news is that the honor guard of the ruling lord has set off from Tongzhou Mansion and will arrive at Jizhou City tomorrow night at the earliest. But I just heard that the Chen family hasn't settled it yet?"

Jin Zhongcun and Ying Wencai were grasshoppers on a rope. They joined forces and turned almost the entire Jizhou Prefecture into their own back garden, allowing them to take whatever they wanted.

Therefore, now that Wang Qi is about to arrive at Jizhou Mansion for inspection, Jin Zhongcun is afraid.

"Don't worry, I've arranged for people to arrest her. Jizhou Mansion is so big, where can she go?" Ying Wencai waved his hand nonchalantly, just deal with Wang Qi.

After listening to Ying Wencai's words, Jin Zhongcun could only nod his head, but frowned again the next second: "The ruler is about to arrive, should your full moon banquet be stopped for two days?"

"Huh," Ying Wencai's mouth moved slightly, obviously dissatisfied with Wang Qi's arrival: "Tomorrow morning, I will order the full moon banquet to be stopped. When Wang Qi leaves, we can start again!"

"Wang Qi is the regent of the country and has overwhelming power. The distance from becoming emperor is just a matter of ceremony. There is no need for you and me to fight against him." Jin Zhongcun seemed to be afraid that Ying Wencai would not be able to think clearly and would really hit an egg against a stone, so he spoke tactfully. Some.

"Don't worry, you and I are rich only because of Wang Qi. Naturally, I won't shoot myself in the foot!"

Ying Wencai took a deep breath, looked at the door, and murmured again, "Just rest assured."

At this time, Jizhou City Gate is not far away.

Five fast horses, rolling up a puff of smoke, were galloping over. (End of chapter)
