Chapter 171

What Yan Heng said was absolutely right, after waiting for two days, he found that Wei Wei had no intention of matching the two at all, Zhenbeihou cursed the fox secretly, and went out himself.

Wei Wei can't wait for this matter, anyway, regardless of whether she is married or not, Qingniang loves her as always.But he has been waiting for 20 years, and finally the time is ripe, and now he can hardly hold back his inner desire.He had to do something, at least to win Qing Niang's attention first.

Mature men with power and power are certainly not like young boys who write a love poem, watch a lantern, and create cheap surprises that only depend on the atmosphere and heart.Of course, he didn't mean that the above-mentioned methods were bad. For him, any method that could impress a woman's heart was a good method.Let's write love poems, even if he can hold back the goosebumps, the few drops of ink in his stomach can't write.As for watching lanterns and admiring the moon, it's not that he didn't have an appointment more than ten years ago, it's just that Qing Niang didn't.

After much deliberation, these methods are not feasible, and Chu Ying is a little helpless.Fortunately, he has cultivated some manpower over the years, and he will release all of them to inquire about news.If not to say that opportunities favor those who are prepared, after many efforts, he really found an excellent opportunity.

Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with Wei Wei. In the past two years, she and Wei's mother sold grain and oil in the west and west of Beijing.Yanji millet is packaged and transported to the capital for sale at a high price. The rice from the south of the Yangtze River is transported northward by water to the capital, and then transferred to the northwest by Mother Wei. Although it is not expensive to sell, the export of millet has caused a shortage of grain in the northwest, and the demand for rice has changed. Even though the sales soared, the couple still made a lot of money.

To do business in the capital, it is one thing to have a business mind, and the most important thing is to have people above.This business is very good, and the white money is enviable.In the past two years, Yan Heng served as the acting commander, and Uncle Wei served as the supervisor of Youzhou. Yuan Kuan, the governor of the two states, had a good relationship with them and was happy to be a favor, so Wei Wei was able to control the business.But at this time Yan Heng was summoned to Beijing, and people with a keen sense of smell began to feel restless when they smelled that the building was about to collapse.There has been no movement on the northwest side for the time being, but a batch of grain shipped in and out of the capital has been detained by the government.

The reason why Wei's mother didn't notice what Wei Wei was thinking was because she was busy with it these two days.After running a few times, all the documents clearly understood that the fair and strict government in the past would suddenly be unreasonable and insist that she cheated people with moldy rice.Not only did Mi confiscate, but she was also detained for questioning.

She is not afraid of anything else, but the matter of being detained, Ah Mao is pregnant, and she will definitely know about it if she doesn't go back.At that time, she was worried and worried about what to do in case of an accident.

But her slender arms can't twist her thighs, so how can she, a merchant, compete with the government.Seeing that she was at a loss what to do, a person that she could never have imagined suddenly entered the yamen.

Hearing that the following people came to report that Qingniang might face imprisonment, although Chu Yingming knew that it would be better to let her stay in the prison for two days. less than.Qingniang is just an ordinary businessman, and the prison where she is imprisoned must be a dark, humid and smelly place, no better than the official Yan Heng's separate cubicle with a bed, a desk, and pen and ink.Just thinking about her suffering inside, his always strong heart has been pulled into a ball.

He rushed over non-stop, and when he saw Qing Niang who was being escorted out by the yamen servants, his liver and gallbladder were almost torn.

"Even the people of this Marquis dare to move!"

After kicking over the guard hero to save the beauty, Chu Ying directly confronted the officials of Yingtianfu.Coincidentally, the judge of Wei's mother happened to be the scribe Gou who had pleaded guilty to Yan Heng, and then was exposed on the spot that his concubine, Hong Xing, had cheated on her.Holding on to this point, Chu Ying opened her mouth with full firepower.

"Yan Heng was generous that day, and he didn't care about your frame. I didn't expect that you were not only ungrateful, but even worse. If you couldn't frame Yan Heng, you would resort to such villainous means to frame his family. The rice noodles in Qingniangpu not only Zhenbei Hou's mansion is used by many dukes' and officials' mansions. You say there is something wrong with his rice, are you questioning these nobles' lack of strict housekeeping, and the life-threatening kitchen is so chaotic that even moldy rice can get in? Even if you dare to question Well, this Marquis can also clearly tell you that the shop is definitely full of high-quality rice. You are not worthy of being an imperial court official with your nonsense and filthy thoughts."

Chu Ying's words put the matter to death, so many officials and dignitaries are using Mama Wei's rice and saying that there is something wrong with the rice, then it is doubting the taste of these people.

In fact, Wei's mother also said this, but because of her identity, Gou Shuli didn't believe it at all.Not only did he not believe it, he also charged her with a crime of indiscriminate clinging.Now that the person being attached has come, Zhenbei Hou said this himself, and as a scribe, he can no longer be questioned about his falsification.Even though he was scolded so badly, he could only bite the bullet and admit it.No matter how unwilling he was, he had to laugh along with him and say that Master Hou was right.

"Since what I said is right, then you should release the people, and the seized things will also break the seal."

"This..." Gou Shuli showed hesitation.

Chu Ying said with a stern face: "I don't want to suppress people because of my status. Since the rice is fine, what's the point of detaining it again? Do you want to detain this batch of rice for a year or two, from new rice to old rice, or Mildew?"

He really meant that, anyway, Ying Tianfu was busy with official duties, and the backlog of affairs had to be dealt with one by one slowly.Put Wei Mama's dossier back, and it won't be new when this batch of goods is released.Not only this batch of goods, but every batch in the future has to be inspected, and her business will be ruined in just a few batches.

But now Zhenbei Houchu is here, even though he is just an idle Marquis, but his rank is there, so they can't help being disrespectful.

"The next officer will deal with this matter as soon as possible."

"Don't play these vague things with me. Who knows that you will arrive in the year of the monkey as soon as possible. Now, immediately, take someone to remove the seal."

After speaking, Chu Ying took action in person, picked up the two of them one by one, and walked to the place of detention.The rice was impounded in a warehouse not far from Yingtian Mansion, and after walking there in a short time, Chu Ying personally grabbed the hand of the scribe Gou, gently tore off the white seal with the official seal of Ying Tian Mansion, and then He sent people back again.

The whole process was clean and neat, and it took a lot of effort. The scribe Gou who returned to Yingtian Mansion was really suffering.Things didn't get done, and Shangfeng's rank was also suppressed by Zhenbeihou, so the anger could only be directed at him.And the time he went out here was too short, and he couldn't even be charged with the crime of obstructing the tolerance of Zhenbeihou.

Shuji Gou was aggrieved, and Chu Ying had already forgotten about him after the matter was over, and almost completely forgot that there was such a person as him, and now he was busy trying to please Qingniang.

Chu Ying's performance was so obvious, how could Mother Wei, who had always been transparent, not see it.But she's going to be a grandmother soon, so what's the point of doing these things again, it's because she can see clearly that she has to draw a clear line at this time.

"Thank you very much today...Master Hou for your help, but if you broke into Yingtian Mansion's Yamen like this and forced the court to appoint officials, will the emperor know..."

Qing Niang was concerned about him, and Chu Ying felt a series of complicated emotions in her heart.

"It's too late for them to cover up such nonsense and embarrassing things, and they dare not report them. Not only are they not guaranteed, but Ying Tianfu has to find a way to cover us up. After all, Beijing officials are not monolithic."

Beijing officials are not monolithic...

Not only Chu Ying, but in the courtyard of the Wei family, holding the copied gift list, Wei Wei expressed the same emotion.

After entering Beijing, she had to visit the acquaintance's house for reason and reason.The day before yesterday, he came back from Zhenbeihou's Mansion. After discussing with Yan Heng, the two split up to work.Yan Heng sent a letter to Uncle Wei in Youzhou, explaining the situation in Beijing.On her side, she personally sent invitations to the Wenshi Hou Mansion and the Jijiu Mansion, expressing her intention to visit them.

Both of them replied to the letter yesterday, and now that there is an undercurrent in Beijing, Yan Heng should not be very welcome to see them.But Ban and Liu are not the kind of people who cling to power and are greedy for profit. After receiving the invitation card, they enthusiastically invited her to come over.He was also concerned about the hard work she had to travel all the way to the capital because she was pregnant, and the reply specifically asked her to rest for a while.It doesn't matter whether it's a day or two, wait until it's fully healed before moving.

Keeping this kindness in mind, others are polite to her, and in turn she is even more polite to those people.In the past few years, she has earned a lot of money, and now it is easy to come up with a generous gift. Considering this friendship, the gift originally planned has now been increased by three points.All day yesterday, she was ordering her servants to go to Tongyuan Commercial Bank, Guangyuan Building and other related businesses to bring back the things stored there.Everything is ready-made, I have been busy all day, and I have prepared all kinds of prayers.

Woke up early in the morning and finally copied the gift list. After two years, she has also become familiar with the writing brush. Although the lower script with hairpin flowers in one hand is not up to the standard of famous artists, it is still beautiful and clear.The words were written on the simple and elegant gift list, and Yan Heng, who had just finished writing all of them, came in with two letters after going out after breakfast.

The first letter was Uncle Wei's reply, stating that he had found clues to the leak of the military plane in the northwest, and secretly told the emperor.In addition to the secret memorial, he also published a memorial on the surface, in which he guaranteed the glory of the Wei family for 600 years through three dynasties.

Wei Wei, who had just been moved by Ban and Liu, was still shocked by this meeting. The family was established in 200 years, how important is the 600-year-old Wei family.She had thought about what method Uncle Wei would use to help, maybe he would fight with the Confucians like he did when they met outside Youzhou City, maybe he would find a surprise soldier in the home of the former Wei family acquaintance, but no matter what she did not Thinking of it, Uncle Wei would directly use the family honor as a guarantee.

After 600 years and the accumulation of three dynasties, the brand of the Wei family has already become a kind of belief.During the reign of the first emperor, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty rose up to criticize Wei Xiang, but at that time they only dared to point out Wei Xiang's faults, and they did not dare to mention Wei's family tradition at all.Now Uncle Wei takes this as a guarantee, and with a single sentence, he can crush the civil and military forces of the whole court.

"Uncle, he..."

Reassuring him, Yan Heng, who was also moved, said firmly: "We will definitely not shame the Wei family."

Then he opened the second letter, which contained the results of the casino investigation.After scanning ten lines at a glance, Wei Wei only had one feeling: the circle of Beijing officials is really chaotic.
