Chapter 292: Taking a Risk

However, it wasn't until the sun sank that Xu Ba came back to report that Zheng Guan was called into the signing room by Lin Run, and no one was allowed to disturb him.

"They're definitely checking the accounts. Tomorrow you will be able to send the king's flag to arrest people! Xu Ying's swollen face was full of fear and said, "Let's run, big brother." ”

"Run, where are you going?" Xu Fan had already calmed down, and snorted coldly: "How loyal are your tens of thousands of slaves? That's because they think our family can withstand it, so they will work against the governor. ”

Saying that, he sneered and said: "If the imperial court condemns you to rebel, they can immediately tie up our whole family and hand it over to Lin Run for credit, believe it or not?" ”

"Then big brother ......" Xu Ying was dumbfounded: "What should we do?" ”

"Xu Ba, arrange it, I'm going to enter the city. I'm going to see Zheng Yuanshao tonight no matter what! Xu Fan commanded in a deep voice, picked up the big hat on the shelf, gritted his teeth and said to Xu Ying:

"If I can't do it tonight, I will have to kill my relatives in righteousness!"

"Alas......" Xu Ying replied with a sad face.

~~

The governor is in the middle of the east courtyard.

When Zheng Yuanshao heard that the two of them actually came here to look for him, he almost peed his pants in fright.

He hurriedly ordered the elder to watch at the gate of the courtyard, and his head buzzed into the courtyard. I saw Xu Ba and a slave of the Xu family guarding outside the hall door.

They did not speak, but left the door open.

Zheng Yuanshao walked in with one foot and one foot shallow, and sure enough, he saw Xu Fan and Xu Ying waiting inside.

"How did you get here? What should I do if I let Zhongcheng know?! He slammed the door behind him and asked angrily.

"Zheng Observation can't there be guests? It's reasonable that we're fellow villagers who came to visit and observe, right? Xu Fan's finger tapped a famous stab on the table and said:

"As for why there was no such person after the fact? There should be no shortage of scammers who try to impersonate their fellow villagers to gain the trust of observation, right? ”

"What's the matter, tell me quickly!" Zheng Yuanshao glanced at Xu Ying, who had a blue nose and swollen face, and said in his heart that he really couldn't recognize it.

Xu Fan stared at Zheng Yuanshao and asked in a deep voice, "Did you find anything with Lin Run?" ”

"Alas......" Zheng Yuanshao sighed and said, "Is there another one that can't be found?" We first found an account book named 'Ronan', and then we searched for melons and found the head of a man named Xu Liu. ”

"It's over, it's over......" Xu Ying was already frightened, and her swollen face was full of ashes.

"Who's the naked man?" Xu Fan asked with a frown.

"Ronan is Kazuo Umegawa, and Kazuo Umegawa is Ronan." Xu Ying lost his soul and said: "The 50,000 taels of silver were transferred to him by me, and Xu Liu just passed ...... time."

"No, I remember clearly in the account book, there are only 20,000 taels." Zheng Yuanshao was sure.

"it!" Xu Ying's lungs exploded when she got angry. "Dog slave dares to hack my money! And he's fucking black, has his conscience been eaten by dogs? ”

"That's it! Who do you blame yourself for being blind and dog-eyed? Is now the time to talk about this! Xu Fan glared at Xu Ying fiercely and said, "What else can you find out from the account?!" ”

"In the past, when the maritime merchants paid for the goods, they were all in the account of Xu Liu, and then transferred to my account." Xu Ying panicked and said, "I can't hold anything after checking." ”

"Now you know you're scared?" Xu Fan sneered, and asked Zheng Yuanshao again: "Where are those account books now?" ”

"Lin Zhongcheng took Xu Liu's book." Zheng Yuanshao replied in a low voice: "The others are locked in the signing room. ”

"All the books must be destroyed tonight!" Xu Fan turned his heart sideways and said resolutely: "Burn it all down, I'll see how he can check!" ”

"It can't be done at all." Zheng Yuanshao shook his head and said: "Even if you can burn the account book of the signing room, what will you do with the book in Zhongcheng's hand?" ”

"If you can't do it, you have to do it!" Xu Fan gritted his teeth and said: "Life and death are at stake, you can only fight!" ”

After speaking, he let out a low cry and called the slave other than Xu Ba into the house.

The servant was sturdy, his temples were slightly bulging, and he looked like a practitioner.

"Are things ready?" Xu Fan asked coldly.

"Ready." The servant nodded, and pulled a tin jug from his bosom.

Xu Fan motioned for him to hand the flask to Zheng Yuanshao.

"No, never!" Zheng Yuanshao's face changed greatly, and he waved his hand in shock and said:

"Murdering the feudal officials is a felony equivalent to complicity in rebellion, and it will raze the three clans!"

"Who dares to murder Governor Yingtian? My Xu family doesn't have the guts. Xu Fan couldn't help laughing, took the wine jug in his hand and said: "This wine will only make people sleep well, and they can't wake up no matter how much they shout." ”

As he spoke, he demonstrated to Zheng Yuanshao: "When pouring wine for him, you have to press the lid of the pot tightly. Don't press it if you drink it yourself, or you'll be drunk too, who will find me the account book? ”

"That's it......" Zheng Yuanshao heard that he was just going to get Lin Run drunk, so he put his heart down halfway. But as soon as he took the wine jug, he asked with a pale face: "But what if Zhongcheng wakes up tomorrow and finds that the account book is gone?" ”

"The fire burns his eyebrows, he can't take care of it so much, he can go whatever he likes." Xu Fan said sharply:

"I burned the books tonight, and tomorrow I will have a showdown with him. If he is still ready to fight to the end, he can't say it, he has to ask the old man to write a letter to a few fathers-in-law, crying about the experience of being bullied by the white-eyed wolf! ”

Saying that, he patted Zheng Yuanshao's shoulder vigorously and shouted: "If you don't do it tonight, you will be ruined!" It's done, you take Lin Run's class! Let's see for yourself! ”

The governor sleeps in the house.

Lin Run's bedroom is divided into two rooms, the inner room is the bedroom, and the outer room is arranged as a study.

At this time, there was a lamp hanging on the beam, and there was also a lamp on the bookcase, which illuminated the study.

Lin Run sat behind Huang Huali's bookcase and was carefully flipping through the account book in his hand.

Suddenly, I heard a report from the chief outside: "Zhongcheng, Zheng is here." ”

"Oh?" Lin Run raised his head strangely and said, "Please let him in." ”

After a while, I saw Zheng Yuanshao walking in with a long entourage, and the latter also carried a food box in his hand.

Lin Run put the account book in his hand into the drawer of the bookcase, and asked with a smile, "Isn't Brother Shanfu dizzy and asleep?" ”

"Hey, the more dizzy I get, the more I can't sleep, so I can only get drunk and take a look." Zheng Yuanshao sighed helplessly and asked the chief follower to rest the food box on the coffee table next to the bookcase.

"But drinking alone will be bitter, and when I thought that Zhongcheng was also alone, I came to Zhongcheng to drink together."

"Haha, it's a long night, it's a good idea to have fun." Lin Run happily got up and sat down on the side.

The chief casually put a few plates of side dishes, a pot of wine, and two pairs of chopsticks on the table, and then bowed down with the food box.

Zheng Yuanshao held the pot, poured a glass for Lin Run and himself, raised his glass and said: "Zhongcheng is too hard, the lower official will toast you first." ”

"Each other." Lin Run raised his wine glass, touched it with Zheng Yuanshao, and drank it all.

The two of them were in the study, pushing the cups and changing the lamps on the side dishes.
