Chapter 238
Zhao Canniang watched from afar and was not in a hurry for Lin Mengniang and Meng Lang to leave.
Since it is a layout, Zhao Canniang's layout is naturally more than this.

When the old woman saw that the two were about to leave, she laughed: "Why are you guilty or something? If I were you, I would not leave. Why do you have to be guilty if you haven't done anything wrong?"

Many onlookers also began to make fun of the two of them.

Lin Mengniang just wanted to leave early at this time, and didn't want to stay here any longer.

"We don't care about your business whether we leave or not." Lin Mengniang was a little annoyed, but she couldn't hold back in the end.

The old woman laughed mockingly: "You don't care about my affairs when you leave, but you care about the Chen family's affairs. You think that the Chen family can bypass you if you leave like this? Take you to jail."

The old lady had just finished speaking, and the crowd parted, and two officials walked up majestically.

"Lin Mengniang and Meng Lang, you two come with us."

After one of the officials finished speaking, he directly tied the two of them up.

The official messenger came very quickly, and even Lin Mengniang was caught before she could react.

"What mistake did we make, why should we be arrested."

Meng Lang said loudly, his tone full of indignation.

"You know what happened. Mrs. Chen's young lady has already reported the case to the government. If you have anything to say, go to the government and discuss it. If you want to complain, go to the government."

After the officer finished speaking, he escorted Lin Mengniang and his wife to leave directly.

The onlookers watched with joy as the two were escorted away.

Zhao Canniang did not go directly to Mipu. At this time, the shopkeeper of Mipu came up and said to everyone: "Thanks to the fact that the truth came to light today, our Chenji Mipu has been wronged today. Thank you for being here to witness all this. From now on, the price of rice and the food in Chenji Rice Shop will be reduced by two pennies to thank everyone for their trust in us for so long."

The latter sentence was naturally said by the shopkeeper out of nowhere, and it is fine to say anything now, as long as everyone is happy.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, someone entered the rice shop to buy rice.

If you can save money, save it. If you can encounter such a good thing, you must grasp it.

The town is not big, and what happened at Chenji Mipu spread throughout the town in about half a day.

The same thing happened in various places. Zhao Canniang prepared very well. Although the time was short, fortunately, there were no shortcomings in all the layouts.

Throughout the day, Zhao Canniang was running around outside.

As long as everyone began to trust the Chen family gradually, Zhao Canniang felt that everything was worth it.

Chen Zhongqiu is also very busy, in the next few days, Zhao Canniang and Chen Zhongqiu will be in various places to deal with the aftermath.

In fact, as long as it is a lie, there will definitely be flaws.

Ke Tianlin was naturally uncomfortable when his scheme was exposed.

"My lord, our plan has failed."

The boy lowered his head, with fear and worry on his face, Ke Tianlin was the most moody, if Chen Zhongqiu was really unhappy, something might happen.

Ke Tianlin's face was ugly, and he could tell from his dark expression that he was in a bad mood: "How many people have been arrested?"

The feeling in the boy's heart was even worse: "Basically, they have all been arrested. If they confess you, my lord...."

The boy wanted to say that if they confessed to Ke Tianlin, Ke Tianlin might go to jail.

In the ancient Zhou Kingdom, if you use formal methods to crush your competitors, you will definitely be allowed, but if you use despicable heresy, then what you are waiting for is the fate of going to jail.

This is also to ensure the regulation of the market. After all, if everyone reads malicious competition, business will definitely not get better.

So this violated the laws of the ancient Zhou Kingdom. This time, Ke Tianlin invited a lot of people and made troubles. As long as everyone offered him up, the rest would be enough for Ke Tianlin to eat.

Ke Tianlin looked stern, looking at Zhao Canniang and the others who were almost unable to hold on anymore, but suddenly something like this happened: "Have you found out through investigation, who is secretly helping Zhao Canniang and the others?"

Every move between Zhao Canniang and Chen Zhongqiu was monitored by Ke Tianlin. According to the rumors circulating in the market, Ke Tianlin knew that it was not Zhao Canniang and the others who did it, so the rest is that someone behind the scenes helped Zhao Canniang and the others.

The boy raised his head hesitantly, with a look of hesitation and hesitation, that look seems to want to say but dare not.

"If you have anything to say, just say it directly, don't dawdle."

The boy replied immediately: "The investigation revealed that it belongs to the third princess."

The servant also took a lot of effort to track down the person who delivered the letter to Zhao Canniang and the others, only to find out that it was the third princess.

Ke Tianlin was surprised at this moment: "You said you are the person of the third princess, how could it be the person of the third princess!" Ke Tianlin couldn't figure out why the third princess wanted to help Zhao Canniang.

You must know that the third princess and Zhao Canniang have festivals.

The boy didn't dare to speak, and knelt on the ground feeling a little uneasy.

"Well, if you go down, I'll think about it and come up later."

Ke Tianlin was a little tired.

The government here actually knew that Ke Tianlin was the culprit, but all things must pay attention to evidence, so interrogation is inevitable, and naturally the incident was delayed a little longer.

Zhao Canniang is not in a hurry, as long as the Chen family's business can be revived this time, as for Ke Tianlin, he will return sooner or later.

In the palace of the third princess in the royal city, the third princess is listening to the reports of the subordinates below. The most different thing about the third princess today is that the third princess has a cold temperament.

"Since those people have already been arrested by the government, you can tell me what to do with this matter. You don't need to be merciful because Ke Tianlin is the third son-in-law."

The third princess had a vicious look on her face, but she didn't believe that she couldn't bring down Ke Tianlin with all her strength.

The servant went down, and the third princess stood up, watching the flowers in the courtyard outside blooming and falling.

She returned to Wangcheng with no idea, so what she exchanged with the emperor was naturally about the Right Prime Minister.

The right prime minister and her mother had a lot of secrets back then, and in exchange for these secrets, the emperor guaranteed her peace of mind, and the emperor turned a blind eye to some of the things she did recently.

The third princess knew that the only use value of the Ke family was gone, and the current emperor was afraid that she would bring down the Ke family.

In the past, the emperor did not move the Ke family because the Ke family still had a little use value. After all, when the emperor ascended the throne, the methods used were not very fair and aboveboard, which naturally attracted a lot of controversy.

So when the Right Prime Minister defected, the emperor did not punish the Ke family who helped the evildoers.

Instead, he kept the Ke family because he didn't want people outside to think that he was a stupid king who killed people without blinking an eye.

But now, the emperor's position has been stabilized, so he naturally doesn't want to leave such a cancer.

Who knows if the Ke family has other thoughts now.

Ke Tianlin is a dangerous person, and the emperor knew this well, so when the third princess came back to make a deal with him, he readily agreed that what the emperor had to do was to ensure that the third princess could live safely.

What the third princess does, the emperor naturally doesn't care.

The third princess felt a little cold in her heart. Every time she recalled the past in her mind, it was like having a nightmare. She was ignorant before, but now she is sensible, but the price she paid was too great.

After the boy left, what Ke Tianlin thought about was how to calm down the things he had caused now.

Naturally he found the magistrate.

Now the only person who can make the county magistrate listen to orders is the magistrate.

Baiyun County is under the jurisdiction of Zhouluo Mansion.

The prefect of Zhou Luo Mansion is named Zhou Qishu, and he has always had a good relationship with the Ke family.I heard that when Zhou Qishu was still a scholar, he was funded by the Ke family, so he went to Wangcheng to take the imperial examination and won the first prize.

So far, Zhou Qishu has always taken good care of the Ke family, which is why the Ke family in Yucheng can develop a lot of business in Baiyun County and several nearby counties. The reason is that Zhou Qishu is the magistrate here.

It is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree. Ke Tianlin is wearing a pure white brocade clothes today. The golden hairpin on his head gives people the impression that it is gradually radiating, especially the small crane head on the golden hairpin. I want that golden crane to be alive.

The luxurious carriage stopped at the back gate of the prefect.

Although Ke Tianlin is more ostentatious now, but because Zhou Qishu didn't want to cause trouble, he told Ke Tianlin not to enter through the main entrance.

Ke Tianlin got out of the carriage and went directly into the courtyard.

The magistrate's yard is very large, and the layout and space arrangement inside seem to be quite reasonable.

Ke Tianlin went straight to the magistrate with ease.

As early as when Ke Tianlin came in, a servant girl reported Ke Tianlin's arrival, so the current magistrate sat in the room and waited.

The prefect's complexion was not good, and there was a letter next to the prefect.

Ke Tianlin was brought into the house by the servant as usual.

Seeing the magistrate sitting on the front seat, Ke Tianlin hurriedly greeted him.

"My nephew pays a visit to Uncle Zhou."

After Ke Tianlin finished speaking, Zhou Qishu did not ask Ke Tianlin to sit down as enthusiastically as before.

Instead, he asked in a cold voice, "What do you want to see me today?"

There was a slight estrangement in the voice.

Ke Tianlin is not a fool, so he can naturally hear the problem in these words. When he heard Zhou Qishu's tone, Ke Tianlin felt that something happened.

"Uncle Zhou's nephew came today to ask for something."

In any case, now that he is asking Zhou Qishu, he still has the attitude he should have. Even if he feels uncomfortable, he still has to be polite.

"Just talk about anything."

Zhou Qishu still didn't let Ke Tianlin sit down, and Ke Tianlin was a little uncomfortable standing in the room.

Ke Tianlin didn't have time to think about what was wrong with this matter, so he said directly: "A few days ago, some of my buddies were arrested by the magistrate of Baiyun County. I want to ask Uncle Zhou for help."

Zhou Qishu sneered, and asked, "How did your buddy get arrested by the county magistrate? It must be because your buddy did something illegal!"

Zhou Qishu's words were a little blunt, completely without the gentleness of the past.

Ke Tianlin frowned, feeling a little displeased in his heart: "Uncle Zhou's little nephew did something wrong. If my little nephew did something wrong, please tell my uncle."

Zhou Qishu smiled slightly, shook his head directly and said: "You really have nothing to do wrong, but there are some things that I can't do anything about. The third princess has already sent a letter asking me not to interfere in this matter, so..., you also know that we have some There are some things that you have to do sometimes.”

When Zhou Qishu mentioned this, Ke Tianlin still didn't understand.

"Uncle Zhou, do you mean that the third princess told you to leave this matter alone?" Ke Tianlin was already getting angry.

Zhou Qishu nodded, stood up and walked to the desk, and brought a letter after a while.

"Look for yourself! It's not that Uncle Zhou doesn't help you, but I can't do anything about it. Tianlin, you are the child I grew up with. You also know the situation in Uncle Zhou's family. There are old and young in the family. A family of more than ten Everyone wants me to support them, if I interfere in this matter, then it is very likely that my official position will be lost, and even if I want to help you, it is impossible not to."

After Zhou Qishu finished speaking, he glanced at the letter on the table and suppressed the anger in his heart.

He was too excited just now, thinking of Ke Tianlin's cruelty now, Zhou Qishu felt that his vest was sweating, but fortunately he restrained his emotions early.

What Zhou Qishu hopes now is that Ke Tianlin doesn't see the flaw.

"Sit down, Tianlin!"

After Zhou Qishu finished speaking, he began to drink tea.

Ke Tianlin opened the letter and began to read it. The more he read it, the more angry he felt.

"Is this a letter from the third princess?"

Zhou Qishu nodded: "Yes, the letter written by the third princess, you should know the handwriting of the third princess, I don't know what happened between you, but it is not wise for Tianlin to offend the third princess, although the third princess is now I don't have any rights at hand, but don't forget that she is always the third princess. Although Concubine Hui has been implicated because of the matter of the right minister, and the third princess has also been affected by the matter of the right minister, the emperor is concerned about the relationship between brothers and sisters .”

Zhou Qishu didn't know what Ke Tianlin did to the three princesses.

He thought there was just a conflict between Ke Tianlin and the third princess.

Hearing Zhou Qishu's words, Ke Tianlin was a little worried.

Had he been a little too kind back then, he shouldn't have let the third princess go, and the troubles he caused now would be easily resolved.

"Uncle Zhou, you also know that those guys were taken away. I am worried that the matter will be implicated in me. I want to ask Uncle Zhou to give me some pointers and see if he can help me."

The reason why Ke Tianlin is so arrogant is not because of Zhou Qishu.

Tang Ke Tianlin has forgotten his identity after being domineering for so long.

Zhou Qishu frowned, and then said: "I don't dare to give advice, but I can tell you that the third princess is now intervening in this matter, and it is basically impossible for me to help you, but if you go to Chen now Everyone apologizes and admits their mistakes, maybe there is still room for easing things up, you know, when your buddies have confessed you, then you will face jail time."

Zhou Qishu naturally knew what Ke Tianlin did.

Ke Tianlin was taken aback and looked at Zhou Qishu in confusion.

"But Uncle Zhou, you also know that the relationship between my nephew and the Chen family has always been bad, and they are still rivals. Now that this incident happened, the Chen family may hate me even more. How could they forgive me so easily?"

After all, Ke Tianlin still wants Zhou Qishu to help him.

Zhou Qishu knew it in his heart, but he would definitely not help Ke Tianlin this time, and not only would he not help Ke Tianlin now.It won't help in the future either.

"Yinzi! You can compensate the Chen family for the loss during this period. I believe that even if the Chen family hates you no matter how much they hate you, they won't be against Yinzi."

Weekly book reminder.

Ke Tianlin was still in a dilemma, because he was most reluctant to part with money now.

"Is there no other way for Uncle Zhou?"

Zhou Qishu shook his head: "Tianlin is not because Uncle Zhou doesn't help you, but you must know that I have helped you now, but what about in the future? Without me protecting you behind your back, how can you deal with those enemies you have provoked in your business?" Deal with it, don't rely on Uncle Zhou for everything, Uncle Zhou will only help you at critical times, hey...It's a pity that your father left early, if you don't have anything to do, maybe things will be much easier to handle. "

When Zhou Qishu lamented this sentence, his eyes kept looking at Ke Tianlin.

But seeing that Ke Tianlin's face didn't look sad at all, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"Think about Tianlin, if the Chen family doesn't speak well to you in court, basically you will go to jail."

Zhou Qishu wanted Ke Tianlin to pay the Chen family money.

"Uncle, I know what to do, thank you uncle for pointing me in the right direction."

Ke Tianlin left feeling a little uneasy.

After Ke Tianlin left, Zhou Qishu felt relaxed all over.

What happened just now was really scary. If Ke Tianlin saw something was wrong with him, he wondered if Ke Tianlin would kill him.

Zhou Qishu picked up the letter on the table, feeling a little guilty.

I opened the letter again and read it again, feeling a little sad in my heart.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Ke was smart all his life but was killed by his son in the end. If he hadn't escaped, he might be a dead bone now. Then no one would know the suffering he and Ke Tianqi suffered.

Zhou Qishu has been taking care of Ke Tianlin, but that is also because of Mr. Ke. Now Mr. Ke has exposed Ke Tianlin's rebellious and unreasonable things in his letters, and he has not asked him not to help Ke Tianlin anymore.

There is still a reason for Zhou Qishu's rejection.

In Zhou Qishu's heart.

Master Ke's words are very meaningful.

Master Ke said that even if the Ke family is ruined, the rebellious son will be punished.

The current Ke family is no longer home like home!Zhou Qishu put the letter away and sighed deeply.

Zhou Qishu knows all about what happened in the Ke family, including how Ke Tianlin treats his younger siblings, including Ke Tianlin's current obsession with Longyang.

In the past, Zhou Qishu was just because Master Ke wanted to take care of Ke Tianlin, so even if Ke Tianlin did something bad, as long as it was within his ability, he would help him, but he knew that he would not.
