Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 100 Which bastard did this? !
"Where is the person who sued Wang Yun for hiding the armor?"

Wang Ren hurriedly brought his men back to the government office, but the person who had made the complaint was nowhere to be found.

The official informed me that the man had already left.

Wang Ren frowned in thought and asked the officer who had seen the man's face, "Is it Sun Qiang who is beside Su Chen?"

"I don't know this person. I have never seen him before."

It wasn’t Sun Qiang…

Wang Ren was a little confused. Could it be that Su Chen really didn't do this?

If that's the case, then we need to investigate it carefully.

"Follow me to the Wang Family Courtyard."

After a brief thought, Wang Ren immediately took his men and rushed to the Wang family compound.

Things like hoarding armor privately, no matter if it's true or false, even if it's hearsay, must be thoroughly investigated!
soon.

Hundreds of officials, led by Wang Ren, came to the Wang family compound.

When Wang Yun learned that Wang Ren had personally led his troops and sealed off the entire mansion, he was stunned.

"Master, could it be that Wang Ren is going to attack you?"

Wang Yun pondered, but he still felt unsure.

He and many grain merchants had never treated Wang Ren well.

Liu Zengshou, who had always been disrespectful to Wang Ren, was angrily confronted by Wang Ren yesterday. Wang Ren also threatened that if Liu Zengshou dared to do things without using the receipts, he would throw Liu Zengshou into jail.

Now, Wang Ren personally led his troops to surround the house...

"Go gather all the guards in the mansion and follow my orders."

"Yes!"

The butler nodded and left quickly.

Wang Yun took a deep breath and strode out to greet him.

"Sir Wang, what brings you here?"

"Cold wind."

Wang Ren had a blank expression on his face. "Wang Yun, what do these servants want to do by stopping me?"

Wang Yun waved his hand, and the servants who were blocking the door retreated. Wang Yun smiled and said, "Lord Wang brought his troops here today and surrounded my mansion. Everyone is very worried. Please forgive me, Lord Wang."

Wang Ren looked at Wang Yun with a half-smile, "Why, you still don't want to invite me in to do something?"

Wang Yun shook his head: "Your Excellency has mobilized so many troops, and I am terrified."

"Fear? Ha!"

Wang Ren shouted, "I just received news that someone has accused you, Wang Yun, of hiding armor and plotting a rebellion! Wang Yun, you are bringing the servants to stop me now. Are you really planning a rebellion?!"

Wang Yun suddenly broke out in a sweat.

He secretly stored armor with the intention of rebellion.

This is going to wipe out all nine clans of the Wang family, right?

Which bastard did this? !
"My lord, you are wronged!"

"I am greedy for money, but I don't have the guts to rebel."

"Besides, I have never practiced martial arts and I don't even dare to kill a chicken. How could I hide weapons and armor? Someone must have deliberately framed me. Please help me, sir!"

Facing Wang Yun’s tearful face and vehement denial, Wang Ren remained indifferent. “Whether it is true or not, we can find out by just searching.”

"search……"

Wang Yun wondered if there was anything in the mansion that couldn't be seen in public.

should……

no?
"What? You really hid the armor and are planning a rebellion?"

"No, no, no, sir, please come in, and make sure to investigate thoroughly and clear my name!"

Wang Yun hurriedly stepped aside and invited Wang Ren to lead his troops into the mansion to search.

Wang Ren was also unequivocal and waved his hand to the officers behind him, "Search carefully for me, don't miss any suspicious place!"

"Yes!"

The officials all said the same thing in unison, and then they dispersed in twos and threes and began to search the mansion.

Wang Yun enthusiastically pulled Wang Ren to sit down, then humbly poured a cup of tea and offered it to him with both hands: "Sir, this must be a thief who deliberately slandered me. I am Wang Yun, a businessman who only seeks wealth. How could I possibly rebel?"

Wang Ren glanced at Wang Yun with a smile, and said quietly, "There is a saying that there is no smoke without fire. We will soon find out whether Boss Wang was framed or it is true."

Wang Yun nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, your Excellency is right."

"Sir, I have a question that is not worth talking about..."

"You want to ask who reported you for hiding armor?"

"Exactly."

Wang Yun gnashed his teeth. If it was any other crime, it would be easy for him to handle it, but hiding armor was equivalent to the crime of treason, which he could not bear.

Maybe it will be a game of Nine Clans Candy Crush Saga.

"I don't know either."

"...?"

"If someone files a complaint, I will accept it, let alone a matter as serious as this?"

Wang Yun sat aside in silence, his brows furrowed.

The thief is so cruel!
If it was any other crime and there was no one to file a complaint, it would naturally be easy to handle.

You don’t even have anyone to appeal for justice, so what right do you have to thoroughly investigate my Wang Family Compound?

Even if the confrontation between the two sides came to the fore in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Wang Yun would have plenty of reasons.

But I hide the armor...

There is no room for him to maneuver at all!

Just like now, Wang Ren brought his troops here based on only a piece of hearsay information.

Wang Yun guessed that there was some personal grudge involved.

"Sir Wang, I have always wanted to apologize to you..."

Wang Yun picked up the teacup and sighed, "Master Wang, you don't know that when you are in the arena, you have no choice."

"That day, Lord Wang wanted us to donate food to help the people of Suzhou survive this disaster. I immediately contacted many colleagues, but Boss Liu was really too much..."

"..."

Wang Ren looked at him quietly without saying a word.

It seems to be saying, keep making it up, I'm listening!
"Everyone says that I, Wang Yun, am the head of the grain merchants in Suzhou City. But that is not true. Standing behind Liu Zengshou are the big shots in Chang'an City. I am just a businessman. How dare I offend them?"

"Fortunately, Your Excellency has made great plans this time and successfully resolved the food crisis. I am very happy..."

Wang Ren said quietly, "You lost tens of thousands of taels of silver, and you're still happy?"

Wang Yun's eyes twitched, and he said with a smile: "Money is only a thing outside of one's body. Now that I have helped so many disaster victims, I am honored to do so!"

Ah.

shameless!

Wang Ren rolled his eyes. He really didn't want to argue with someone like him.

It was obvious that he was forced to lower the price of grain, but in his mouth, it turned out to be a voluntary contribution?
Are you proud of it?

fart!
"grown ups!"

At this time, an officer came in with a stern face, "Sir, we found a locked cellar."

Wang Ren looked over there, and Wang Yun said with a smile, "My lord, don't misunderstand me. That's where the mansion stores ice."

"Really? Let's go and have a look together."

The cellar is behind the annex, one meter below the ground, with a sloped passage.

There were many people gathered around, including the officers brought by Wang Ren, servants from Wang Yun's mansion, and guards. These people were stopped by the officers and could not get close, so they looked at this side curiously.

Wang Ren said with a smile: "Your merchant protection team is quite dedicated."

Wang Yun smiled awkwardly and waved to the guards beside him, and everyone stepped back.

"Please come in, Boss Wang."

"Sir, what's stored here are just some ice cubes..."

"Only this officer will enter with you."

"it is good!"

With Wang Ren's guarantee, Wang Yun took out the key he had with him and opened the lock.

There weren't many things in the cellar. Neatly stacked ice cubes gave off a chilly air, and there were some sealed boxes piled up in the corner.

"What are these boxes?"

"They are just some antiques from my collection... Please have a look, sir."

Wang Yun opened the boxes one by one with a smile, not believing that anyone could hide armor here under his nose.

however.

When the second box was opened, a bright smile appeared on Wang Ren's face.

"Wang Yun, why don't you look back?"

"They are just some antiques..."

Wang Yun looked back, his hair stood up instantly, and his pupils contracted, "Who... who put this armor in my cellar?"

"Sir, I am innocent. This must have been placed in my house by a thief..."

"Someone, take it!"
