Volume 1 Fuchun Mountain Residence Chapter 50 Blackmail
。 In the one-zhang square single room, Wang Xian held a cup of fragrant tea and sat behind the table.
Since just now, the corners of his grinning mouth have not closed. Fortunately, a curtain divides the public house into two rooms, inside and outside, although the inner room is small, it is his own world. Although the outer room is large, it is ten bookstores crammed together.
What's more important is that freedom, at least in this public house, he no longer has to look at other people's faces to act. On the contrary, others are to act according to his face. He no longer has to serve tea and water to others, but instead others have to serve him tea and water, as he does now......
Wang Xian took a sip of fragrant tea, and couldn't help but be secretly vigilant, a little complacent, this is not right. It's just a bitter plan and a divisive plan, isn't it just for this moment, and let Xiaosheng be proud for a moment......
So he smirked until noon, until Wu Wei came in to remind him that it was time to eat, and Wang Xiancai closed his mouth and said, "I want to recruit two white servants." ”
"No problem," Wu Wei thought for a while and said, "As soon as Li Sheng leaves, his lackeys can't stay, just sweep the floor and go out." ”
"Okay." Wang Xian got up and said with a smile: "Then please Brother Wu." ”
"Uh...... Be. Wu Wei couldn't help but be dumbfounded, he found that some people were really born leaders, and they didn't need to teach others at all.
When he went to the cafeteria to eat, Wang Xian no longer had to have eight people at a table to grab that pitiful meal. Now he has changed to eat in the inner room, the same size table, only four people eat, but there are crystal hooves, fried river shrimp, fried purple horn leaves, white fish and bracken soup, and a plate of red and willow steamed bad anchovies, the bone spurs are fragrant, and the mouth melts.
It is precisely because of the abundance of food that it is the officials and wardens who can drink wine and talk in a low voice, which is much more calm than the tense scene outside.
Wang Xian was greeted by the three seniors of the torture room. Li Guan looked at his green shirt and laughed strangely, which made Wang Xian unable to eat, so he had to whisper: "The junior brother will be the east of the Crane Tower tomorrow night, and I implore the three brothers to appreciate their faces." ”
"That's pretty much it." The Zang warden, who had twice sent him to be tortured, smiled and said, "But I guess you don't have any money." How about it, let's go in the autumn breeze after dinner? ”
"Then dare to be kind, where are you going?"
"It's close, two steps away." Zang Dianguan smiled: "Hurry up and eat, and then let's go find Zhang Ma." ”
The other two had amused expressions, obviously knowing very well what Zang Dianguan was going to do.
After eating, Zang Dianguan led Wang Xian, first went to the fast room to call Zhang Ma, and then went straight to a family on two streets adjacent to Yamen.
Xu was used to coming, and when he saw that the gate was empty, Zang Dianguan and Zhang Ma didn't wait for the door to pass, so they took Wang Xian straight in.
Wang Xian followed behind the two of them, and secretly said in surprise while looking at it, this house can't see anything from the outside, but it is very coquettish inside, I really don't know what the owner is like.
Entering the hall, Zang Dianzhi and Zhang Ma sat down with a big sword and golden horse, and beckoned Wang Xian to sit down as well. Zhang Ma shouted, "Lord Li, Lord Li? After calling twice and no one answered, he snorted angrily and said to the two wardens: "This Li Sheng also looks down on people, we have been here for a long time, he doesn't pay attention to it and doesn't serve tea, why bother with his business!" ”
"yes." Zang Dianguan also nodded and said: "It's really kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs, let's go, whether he is dead or alive." ”
Wang Xian was still a little uneasy about extorting people's money, but when he heard that this was Li Sheng's family, he came to the spirit and watched the two perform with great interest.
I saw the two of them get up and walk to the door of the hall, and they coughed behind the screen: "The two adults stay." "In the Ming Dynasty, 'adult' was not a noble title, and it was used when the status of the two sides was not much different, and the subordinate called the superior. If the difference is too great, a special honorific title is required.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wang Xian turned his head when he heard the sound, only to see an old man hunched over from behind the screen. If you look closely, this man is not very old, but his face is sad, full of wrinkles, and most of his beard and hair are gray. If you look at it again, isn't this the former top boss Li Sheng?
"Oh, how did adults get old like this?" Wang Xian couldn't help but feel pity when he saw Li Sheng's sudden aging, but then remembered that it was this guy who was making trouble behind the scenes, causing his family to be ruined and almost ruined, so he had no sympathy at all. Hurriedly took a step forward, bowed deeply and said, "I've been very happy these days, right?" ”
"Ahem......" Li Sheng also recognized that this little man in a green shirt turned out to be Wang Xian. In a way, this little man stepped on his corpse to get on the throne. Listening to his gloating greetings now, Li Sheng almost didn't get angry. Turning his head to ignore him, he said to the other two: "Two adults, please sit down, let the two of you worry about the next matter." ”
"It's nothing, colleagues, and you should worry about snacks for you." Zang Dian said with a sad face: "But Hangzhou is urging every three days, and this time you must invite Brother Li."
When it came to the judge's questioning, the brothers really couldn't shirk it anymore. ”
"This, the two adults have also seen it, I am very sick under the disease, I am afraid that I can't bear the boat, please be accommodating." Li Sheng whispered in a low voice, his heart full of sadness. Half a month ago, I didn't have to look at these two people squarely, but when I left the house, everything was different.
A few days ago, the Zang Warden and Zhang Ma suddenly came to the door, saying that according to the judge's letter, He Chang, who had been escorted to Hangzhou, had confessed to some new crimes, many of which had to do with him, so they had ordered them to take him to Hangzhou for a visit, and the procurator had to personally interrogate him.
Li Sheng heard it in a cold sweat, that is how often it is his lifeline! Because according to the "Da Ming Law", the person who instigates the crime will be punished as the first evil, and if he often wants to cut off his head, he will not escape the death penalty!
In fact, he didn't think that these two people were fabricating words to deceive themselves. But when he thought of the 'cold-faced iron cold' in Hangzhou, he didn't have the courage to get lucky at all, so he asked the two of them in a low voice, what should he do? Naturally, Xie Yi, who has one person and one ingot of silver, is indispensable.
After taking the money, the two of them changed their faces and said: "Actually, it's not impossible, because Hangzhou doesn't particularly believe it, so I just let you ask." We can help you report your illness as seriously ill, and as a rule, you will not be able to leave until you have recovered. As for when the adults will be healed, it is not up to the brothers to decide. After a year and a half of dragging, there are many cases according to the judges, who still remembers this case? ”
"Good strategy!" Li Sheng praised at the time.
It's just that within a few days, he couldn't praise it. Because these two came over in three days, saying that the top was urging him tightly, and he sent someone to find out the truth, and ordered him to be carried away, changing the law to scare him. Li Sheng is already a frightened bird, and every time he breaks his fortune and eliminates disasters.
Although for Master Li, who has a lot of money, a few ingots of silver are just a drop in the bucket, but the psychological pressure is too great to come to such a situation the next day. Most of his hair is gray in the past few days......
"There's really no way around it this time." Zhang Ma took out a ticket from his arms and said, "Well, the eldest master has already approved Zhu, if we delay any longer, we will have to eat the board." ”
"Ah......" Li Sheng looked desperate, but he didn't believe it in his heart. Because he knew that they brought Wang Xian together, they just wanted to extort more, how could they give up their own cash cow and be cut down like this?
But who wants to be slaughtered all the time, especially by those who have been slaughtered by themselves? If Guang Zang and Zhang Ma came, Li Sheng would be obedient, but as soon as he saw Wang Xian, he didn't want to bow his head, so he said in a sullen voice: "Since this is the case, we will no longer embarrass the two of you, let's set a day to go on the road." I have a clear conscience and believe that Zhou Zhentai will not wronged the ...... of good people."
Zhang Ma and Zang Dianzhi realized that they had already seen through their tricks. The dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and they can't do anything about him.
The two of them looked at Wang Xian apologetically, sorry little brother, I didn't let you watch a good show, but I saw a joke.
Wang Xian was silent except for sarcastically saying two sentences to Li Sheng when he entered the door, and only when he saw that the two of them were short of words did he open his mouth: "Two adults, no matter what Master Li says, he is also the old boss below, I really can't bear to see him drag his sick body to trial, and I dare to discuss it in the next, it is better to delay it for two more days." ”
"It's been delaying for a while, what's the point of delaying it for another two days?" Zang Dianguan was puzzled.
"That's right, my father wrote from Beijing saying that he had appointed Zhejiang as the inspector and the secretary of prison, and he was about to take office soon," Wang Xian said: "My father and Master Li's colleagues will have a meeting, and when the time comes, Lord Li will feel much better." ”
I heard that Wang Xingye was appointed as the judge and the prison, and Li Sheng's soul was about to fly out. Then He Chang is now locked up in the prison of the judge, if Wang Xingye goes to be the prison, the first thing will definitely be to judge him in the autumn. With the means of the surname Wang, what confession can't be asked?
Thinking of this, Li Sheng said in a trembling voice: "Didn't you say that Renhe County Classics History?" ”
"Alas, people are not as good as heaven, and the canonical history has been set, but they were cold-faced and cold-faced, 'The canonical history is not in the stream, and it is not enough to reward the righteous', so it should be to let the officials redefine a quality official...... As a result, he was sentenced to a Jiupin prison, which is not as good as the classic history! Wang Xian said depressedly.
"Ah......" Li Sheng's hands and feet were weak, and he felt that the sky was spinning, and he lost his voice: "How can this be good?" ”
"Speaking of which, there is still half a month to go before the autumn decision." Wang Xian sighed: "My father said that he still wants to carry out activities in Beijing to see if he can change it again, he really doesn't want to be a Raush prison." ”
"Yes!" Li Sheng said as if grasping a life-saving straw: "Let your father carry out activities in Beijing, and you must change back to the classic history." ”
"It's a pity that there is no money." Wang Xian sighed again and said, "I can't say that I can only come back to take office." ”
"It doesn't matter, I have!" Li Sheng hurriedly took out a bag from his sleeve, opened it and saw that there were four or five gold bars inside, "Take it first, I'll make it up again, make up a few hundred taels of silver, and make sure your father gets what he wants!" (To be continued)
