Chapter 268

Qiao Xunfu frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Master Jiang, you can understand this matter, it was the deceased Yang's mother who forged the house deed and land deed, which caused these troubles. At this time, Yang's mother has passed away. Is it possible that we still have to pursue her?"

Jiang Zhiyuan snorted and said, "It's a good way to pin this crime on the dead person. Mr. Qiao, how can you guarantee that this mother Yang's death was not caused by Zong Yunlong on purpose!"

"You...you are full of farts!" Zong Yunlong couldn't bear it anymore, and cursed at Jiang Zhiyuan.Jiang Zhiyuan's face turned red immediately, and he pointed at Zong Yunlong and yelled, "Bold and unreasonable, above the court, you insult the court officials with foul language, come here, slap your mouth!"

Zong Yunlong was slightly taken aback, Qiao Xunfu had nothing to say for a moment, after all, Jiang Zhiyuan was also a parent official.The yamen servants looked at Jiang Zhiyuan, then at Qiao Xunfu, hesitating, Jiang Zhiyuan turned to Qiao Xunfu coldly, "What? Master Qiao, is it possible that the Lord wants to protect the prisoner!"

For a moment, Governor Qiao faltered, looking at Jiang Zhiyuan's indifferent face, the anger in his heart could not be suppressed and was about to burst out.Jiang Zhiyuan met Governor Qiao's reproachful eyes, but he did not back down at all, and a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.

Governor Qiao has been in the official position for a long time, and immediately caught the meaning in Jiang Zhiyuan's eyes. He was slightly surprised, but thought for a while, and asked in a calm tone: "Master Jiang, this Zong Yunlong seems to be too impulsive, Mr. Jiang , are you willing to ignore him?"

Jiang Zhiyuan raised his mouth slightly, looked at Governor Qiao's questioning eyes, then looked at Zong Yunlong who stood stubbornly aside, frowned slightly and said, "Lord Qiao, I am the imperial court official and the emperor's envoy. Insulting is not only disrespecting me, but also indirectly insulting the emperor, Master Qiao..."

Hearing Jiang Zhiyuan's words, Zong Yunlong immediately stepped forward and said, "Master Qiao, the villain was reckless for a while and offended Mr. Jiang. If there is any punishment, the villain will take it voluntarily. Please don't make things difficult for the villain, Mr. Jiang." , the villain is willing to accept the punishment."

Jiang Zhiyuan laughed loudly, and immediately waved his hand and said: "Come here..." Before he finished speaking, he heard a sharp voice outside the lobby suddenly shouted: "The imperial envoy has arrived..."

Governor Qiao and all the people were stunned, why did the imperial envoy come?And it's the day of trial?The people immediately stepped aside, only to see a middle-aged man with a fair face and a dust whisk in his hand walking slowly and solemnly, and several attendants beside him followed him respectfully.

Governor Qiao immediately walked down the hall, stepped forward and cupped his hands, and said repeatedly: "Eunuch Feng, I don't know which gust of wind will blow Eunuch Feng here? The lowly officials are far away from welcoming you, and I hope Eunuch Feng will forgive you."

Eunuch Feng nodded slightly, and looked at Jiang Zhiyuan. Jiang Zhiyuan was also taken aback for a moment. He once sent his cronies to the capital to report to Eunuch Li, the great eunuch next to the emperor, just to wipe out the Yunlong family. , to dispel the fire in his heart, how could it be Eunuch Feng who came here this time?

Although he was puzzled, he was confident, the emperor valued him so much, and he humbly demoted himself face to face, just to show compassion for the people, probably because the emperor couldn't do without Eunuch Li, so he sent Eunuch Feng here.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiyuan hastily stepped forward, bowed deeply and said, "The humble Jiang Zhiyuan has seen Eunuch Feng."

Eunuch Feng's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand. A few handsome attendants over there immediately stepped forward and said softly, "Eunuch, what are your orders?"

"Hehe, please ask for the emperor's imperial edict." Eunuch Feng said softly, his voice was thin and crisp, like a girl's voice, and the common people suddenly realized that this person was the eunuch beside the emperor.

Hearing that there was an imperial decree from the emperor, Governor Qiao hurriedly lifted his official robe, knelt down immediately, and said loudly: "Your servant, Qiao Puchen, accepts the decree."

Eunuch Feng smiled and said, "Master Qiao, this decree is not for you, but for Jiang Zhiyuan, the county magistrate of Guangzhou."

Jiang Zhiyuan was overjoyed, and immediately took a step forward, plopped down on his knees, and said in a loud voice, "Chen Jiang Zhiyuan accepts the order!"

Eunuch Feng twitched his mouth slightly, stretched out the yellow silk in his hand, and read softly: "By God, the emperor ordered that Li Yuxi, the eunuch next to me, accepted bribes and colluded with foreign officials, and immediately put him on death row. Li Yuxi had a lot of letters and correspondences, so he led Feng Jixiang to Guangzhou City, and immediately put Jiang Zhiyuan in jail, and after the truth is found out, he will punish him, hereby!"

Jiang Zhiyuan shook his head, as if he didn't hear clearly, Eunuch Feng chuckled and said, "Master Jiang, Jiang Zhiyuan, did you hear the imperial decree clearly?"

"Eunuch Feng, the villain has always been innocent, and he has never done anything to offend the emperor. Eunuch Feng, the villain is wronged." Jiang Zhiyuan finally came to his senses at this time, and shouted.

"Hehe, Jiang Zhiyuan, although your corrupt official has letters, the emperor thinks highly of your talent. He wanted to send an adult here to have a detailed talk with you, but unexpectedly, your several letters intended to make the Guangzhou city Your Zong Yunlong will be killed, and the emperor is filial by nature, so how can he tolerate your aggressiveness again and again!"

"Eunuch Feng, this Zong Yunlong has indeed committed a heinous crime, Eunuch Feng, please report to the Emperor, don't be blinded by his false appearance."

Eunuch Feng still had a calm expression on his face, but he waved his delicate hand like a woman, and shouted sharply: "Come here, take off Jiang Zhiyuan's official hat, and put him in prison first!"

Jiang Zhiyuan looked at the yamen servants who were getting closer, covered his official hat with his hands, and shouted sharply: "Eunuch Feng, the villain is not convinced, the villain is not convinced, I want to see the emperor..."

"Hehe, Jiang Zhiyuan, the Sa family might as well tell you the truth. When your predecessor Liu Zhixian was transferred from this Guangzhou city, he had already passed on the story of Zong Yunlong's burial of slaves as his son-in-law to the emperor. These three words, Yunlong, are very impressive. You have written many times, full of loopholes. Do you really think that the emperor is so easily deceived by you? The emperor knows everything you have done here. Jiang Zhiyuan, the organ It's too clever to calculate, the emperor thinks highly of you, and when your magistrate expires, he will directly propose you as the governor of Guangzhou, what a pity, what a pity."

Jiang Zhiyuan looked at Eunuch Feng with a pale face, and suddenly fell to his knees, begging: "Eunuch Feng, the villain is wrong, Eunuch Feng, please speak kindly to the emperor on behalf of the villain, the villain will never let you down again!" The emperor's high hopes, Eunuch Feng, I beg you..." As he said, he kowtowed like pounding garlic.

Eunuch Feng shook his head, "Oh, a villain is a villain, he was so arrogant just now, but now he is like a dog wagging his tail, come and drag Jiang Zhiyuan down."

In the lobby, there was such a sudden turning point. Zong Yunlong and Rong Lanxue stood there, looked at each other, and could no longer believe their ears and eyes, until Hu Qianfang stepped forward, gently pulled them and said, "Silly boy, What are you still doing? Let's go home quickly."

Zong Yunlong asked in a daze: "Is this... the end of the matter? I... I'm fine..."

Hu Qianfang said with a smile: "My son-in-law, it's over, you're fine."

"Then..." Zong Yunlong saw that Governor Qiao had accompanied Eunuch Feng out of the lobby, and the common people were standing there, bursting into cheers, and Rong Lanxue couldn't hide her joy at this time, looking at Zong Yunlong and said: "Mr. , we, we are really fine."

Zong Yunlong slapped himself on the head violently, and immediately yelled "ah", Rong Lanxue looked at his head quickly, the scar on his head was still there, and Yu Qing was still on his face, Rong Lanxue He sighed lightly and said, "Godfather, why do I feel like a dream, the sudden disaster and the sudden end, I really can't imagine and can't accept it."

Hu Qianfang nodded and said: "Silly boy, don't talk about you, even we are confused now, maybe this is Yunlong's fate, don't think about it anymore, go back to my house today, let's have a good celebration fan."

Rong Lanxue nodded, supported Zong Yunlong, looked at him and said, "Sir, let's go back."

Zong Yunlong sighed slightly, smiled wryly, Elder Yang and Zong Dafu over there hurried over to congratulate them.Hu Qianfang looked at Elder Yang and the other elders, thought for a while, and said loudly: "The matter of Yunlong came so suddenly and disappeared quickly. Although Yunlong is now in danger, it cannot do without everyone's help. I want to thank everyone in Chaoyue Tower, everyone, please don't be polite!"

When Elder Yang and the others heard this, they immediately said: "Okay, okay, it's rare for us to get together, now let's take this opportunity, I'm coming to the East, let's go."

Hu Qianfang immediately said: "Elder Yang, if you play hostile, I will be angry."

Elder Yang chuckled, "Old Hu, don't look at you as the biggest boss in Guangzhou, I'm a local rich man, so don't rob me."

"No, I can't let you have such a good opportunity. I'll invite you today." Hu Qianfang pulled Elder Yang while beckoning everyone to walk towards Chaoyue Tower with a smile.

Rong Lanxue supported Zong Yunlong, stood at the gate of the county government office, still didn't react for a long time, watched the people slowly leave, the peddler selling candied haws came with several peddlers, smiled and handed over to them Said: "Master Zong, Young Mistress Zong, we know that you auspicious people have their own celestial phenomena, so it can be seen that God is fair. Master Zong, you have suffered such a big crime, and we people feel wronged for you in our hearts. Now you are all right. The stone in our hearts has also been let go."

"Yes, yes." Those vendors all agreed.

Zong Yunlong and Rong Lanxue thanked everyone again and again. It took only a stick of incense before they arrived at Chaoyue Tower. At this time, it was already noon. The entire second floor was occupied, and Elder Yang didn't compete with Hu Qianfang. He sat there, angrily scolding Hu Qianfang for being cunning.The guests who were scattered below heard that Zong Yunlong had been wronged, and all of them came to congratulate happily. Seeing that, Hu Qianfang was happy, and immediately waved his hand, and counted the accounts of those individual guests in his own name.

This meal lasted until the moon went up to the west building. Over there, Elder Yang saw that everyone was full and drunk, so he hurriedly prepared the carriage and sent the elders back to his mansion. Hu Qianfang immediately pulled Zong Yunlong to let Lanxue live in his house.

Elder Yang immediately stopped him and said, "Old Hu, you can't rob me of this anymore. Yunlong's family members are all in my house. If they don't go back, how can I explain to those family members?"

"Hehe, it's okay, I'll send Xinglong to tell them. If it doesn't work, I can take them over." Hu Qianfang was already a little drunk at this time, his figure was shaking, and he said with a smile.

"That can't be done. Adults can endure torment, but children can't. Jin'er is still with me. Xue'er, you don't want Jin'er." Elder Yang said intentionally.

Rong Lanxue immediately felt a pain in her heart, she hadn't seen Jin'er for a day, did she cry, did she make a fuss, did she miss her parents?In fact, Jin'er is so young, and the elder and wife like him so much, how can he be wronged? It's just the heart of the world's parents. When there are things, Rong Lanxue can't be distracted to think about these things. Now everything is in the past. Yes, Elder Yang mentioned it again, Rong Lanxue only felt that her heart had already flown back to Elder Yang's mansion.
