The black-bellied prime minister's red makeup

Chapter 14

Sure enough, Xia Hanming was right. A few days later, Shen Qingnan learned that something had happened in the mansion of his servant, Mr. Li.

It seems that General Ye arrested the fiancé of Mrs. Li's daughter Li Yan for tax evasion.

Although Li Yan is the daughter of an official family, she has a marriage contract with the son of a merchant. Her fiancé is Yu Shilang, the son of Yu Yuanwai, a wealthy merchant who runs several rice shops in the capital.

Originally, Yu Yuanwai, the head of the family, should be arrested for tax evasion, but it happened that Yu Yuanwai handed over all his property to his son two days ago, so his son was finally arrested.I have to say that General Ye's calculation was really a coincidence.

The door servant?Thinking about Mr. Wang's daughter Li Yan who contradicted General Ye's daughter Ye Mantian on the night of Wang Daren's birthday banquet, no wonder so many civil servants under Prime Minister Shen's subordinates, General Ye would target the servant of a fourth-rank official who is only one rank behind him.

However, General Ye seems to have forgotten that the collection of taxes is managed by his official household secretary, so why should a general like him arrest people for tax evasion?

After straightening out his clothes, Shen Qingnan gave instructions to the outside world: "Prepare the carriage and go to General Ye's mansion."

When Shen Qingnan arrived at General Ye's mansion, the assistant servant, Master Li, and his daughter Li Yan had already arrived at General Ye's mansion, but they had been stopped outside the general's mansion because they were low-ranking officials and did not dare to force their way in. In a hurry outside the door.

When they saw the Prime Minister coming, they felt like seeing a savior. Li Yan, who was dressed in pink, knelt down in front of Shen Qingnan and cried and begged.If an ordinary man saw that pear blossom with rain, his heart would definitely die of heartache, but Shen Qingnan was a little annoyed, he hated weak women the most.

Standing with hands behind her back, looking straight ahead, Shen Qingnan said lightly, "Get up and talk."

After Mr. Li helped his daughter up, he began to complain to Shen Qingnan: "Prime Minister, you have to make the decision for me. General Ye arrested my son-in-law in the name of tax evasion, let alone my son-in-law did not evade taxes, even if he evaded taxes." The matter is not under the jurisdiction of General Ye, so why should he arrest my son-in-law."

"Okay"

Shen Qingnan frowned impatiently, waved his sleeves at them and said, "Go back first, the truth will be dealt with here."

"The minister thanked the prime minister"

"My daughter thanked Xiangye"

Now that the prime minister said so, Lord Li and the two of them felt relieved, they bowed to Shen Qingnan together and then slowly left General Ye's mansion.

Seeing the prime minister coming, the servants at the door quickly went in to report, and General Ye, who was notified shortly after, appeared at the door in casual clothes.

It's not a smiley greeting, but it's respectful.

"I will see the prime minister at the end."

"General Ye, don't be too polite"

Smiling, as the prime minister, Shen Qingnan bent down to help the official get up for the first time, which caused General Ye, who was still annoyed by the incident at the birthday banquet, to be terrified and puzzled.Which one is the prime minister going to play?
Shen Qingnan acted as if he didn't see Ye Qin's doubts, shed the previous hostility and majesty Shen Qingnan continued to smile and said: "I hope that General Ye will not be offended when the Prime Minister came to disturb you suddenly. Actually, the truth is that I came to visit the general's daughter this time. In the last competition, the servants of the truth did not know how serious the injury was to the little girl, so the truth felt so guilty that he brought a good ginseng to visit."

He signaled his subordinates to send the ginseng up, "I hope the general will accept it with a smile."

Prime Minister Shen didn't come to ask for someone for Mr. Li, but came to visit the little girl?This made Ye Qin, who was preparing for a tough battle and wanted to kill him but refused to admit it, even more confused. When did Prime Minister Shen, who has been showing people his cruelty with despicable and shameless means, become so amiable, humble and polite from the beginning?Does the sun come out from the west today?
Seeing General Ye staring blankly at Shen Qingnan, the subordinate beside Shen Qingnan reminded in a low voice: "General Ye, are you going to let our prime minister stand outside all the time?"

After being reminded, Ye Qincai suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly invited Shen Qingnan into the mansion.

After entering the mansion, Shen Qingnan went directly to see General Ye's daughter Ye Mantian.

I saw that many days had passed since she was still unable to get out of bed even though her wound was no longer bleeding, and she would grin her teeth in pain and cry for her father and mother whenever she moved. It was so funny that Shen Qingnan almost couldn't help it. laugh out loud.

Suppressing her own smile with all her strength, and frowning, Shen Qingnan said with a very distressed look: "Why did you get hurt like this? It's all because my subordinate didn't know how serious it was. When the truth comes back, she will definitely chop off her hands and feet."

"Obviously you ordered it, if you chop it, you should chop your hands and feet."

This sentence was said by Ye Mantian on the hospital bed. Although the voice was extremely small, Shen Qingnan heard it and remembered it in his heart.

Very well, it seems that last time he let Alan deal too lightly, otherwise how could she still have the strength to speak now.

In his heart, Shen Qingnan began to think about how to deal with that girl next time, but on the surface, he pretended not to hear those words and continued to General Ye: "If General Ye does not dislike all the expenses of treating Miss Ye, all the expenses for treating Miss Ye will be paid to the truth." On top of that, if you still need the truth, you can say a few words in front of the emperor and invite an imperial doctor from the palace for the general."

"How dare you bother the prime minister, the little girl will be fine in a few days with thick skin and thick flesh. It is already the greatest kindness for the prime minister to come and see her in person today."

Seeing that the prime minister is sending ginseng today, contracting medical expenses and helping to invite the imperial doctor, Ye Qin, a third-rank old man, is flattered by his polite and humble speech today.He didn't care about the gap between the civil and military parties, and he forgot all the enmity of the previous few days. At this moment, he only had the pride of the prime minister personally stepping on the door to give gifts to see.

As for who among the government officials has received such treatment, it seems that the prime minister respects Lao Ye very much.

Finally, his stern face was filled with a smile, and he made a gesture of invitation. Ye Qin respectfully said, "The prime minister is really flattered to visit the general in person today. If you don't mind, please invite the prime minister to go to the main hall to taste tea?"

"General Ye is polite, and the truth is exactly what he meant."
