Xiangling stayed in Su Mansion for two days, and the guests attending the banquet were interrogated in a dark way, but the inner house was very calm, and Xiangling was not disturbed at all.

I heard that Yang Qingyue returned to Lingyuguan that night, and she never showed up, and there was no news.

On the fifth day, the Su Mansion was finally unsealed, and an earth-shattering news exploded:

In addition to the Shaodong family of Shengjia Oil Mill, Xiang Wenzhi, the Shaodong of Xiangjia Buzhuang, also participated.

The purpose of the drug was to use Wushi San to control Yang Gui, and Deputy Overseer Qian was the pond fish that was affected.

The reasons for the enmity between the Sheng family, the Xiang family and Yang Qingyue are all related to the procurement of military supplies.

The enmity with the Sheng family was because the Sheng family and a peasant girl robbed the soybean supply in Lin'an City, and Yang Qingyue helped the peasant girl cripple the Sheng family's steward, who was also a cousin of the Sheng family.

The enmity with the Xiang family was because the Xiang family and the Su family competed for the right to make cotton clothes, and the Xiang family was originally stable, but in the end, Yang Qingyue gave the Su family 30% on the grounds that the Xiang family couldn't do it.

Both families have a lot of grievances against Yang Qingyue, and they have given Yang Qingyue five stones many times, and at the Su family banquet, it may be that the measurement is too inaccurate, so that they are out of the foreign appearance.

If Yang Qingyue is only brought out, the matter can also be characterized as a personal vendetta, but he set aside the radish to bring out the mud, and found out that a lieutenant who was closer to Xiang Wenzhi also smoked Wushisan.

This lieutenant is a front-line combat unit, and the problem is serious.

The army controlled all the people of the Sheng Xiang family with a thunderous force, and even the county government of Lin'an County could not interfere.

At this point, Xiangjia Buzhuang and Shengjia Oil Mill, which have been in Lin'an County for many years, fell overnight due to an opening banquet of the Su family, and fell off guard.

.

Early in the morning, Wang Xianling guarded the Yingkou of Lingyu Pass, and met Yang to prepare for the meeting under the pretext of visiting the sick.

It's not that he doesn't want to see others, but the local yamen and the military camp are independent, and they rarely intersect, and the only one who has the most intersections and thinks he can speak is Yang Qingyue.

Sun Liangtian said to Wang County Order with a gloomy face: "Wang County Order, Bai Sheng gave it to the two families, Yang Beiban accepted the military law to deal with the grounding, and at the same time forcibly quit Wushi San, you can't see him." ”

Wang Xianling stubbornly said: "Captain Sun, can you help me introduce Shangguan, there is a case to report." ”

Sun Liangtian looked Wang Xianling up and down, snorted lightly in his nose, took him into the camp, and invited him into a small banquet living room.

After waiting for a while, a young general came in, looking at it with a righteous face, solemn, not angry and arrogant, and it was not easy to provoke at all.

Sun Liangtian introduced: "Wang County Order, this is General Yang of Ningyuan, who is responsible for investigating the Wushi case. ”

Wang Xian ordered a deep salute and asked for peace.

General Ning Yuan is a fourth-rank military attaché, and in the future, he will attack the rank of third-rank Zhenguo general, and Wang Xianling is a small seventh-rank sesame official, with a difference of 108,000 miles in status, so he dare not be disrespectful.

Yang Zhongguo gave in his arm, let Wang Xianling sit down, and said indifferently: "Wang Xianling, now the general and Deputy Commander Qian are responsible for hearing the Wushi Sansan case, and you can tell me what the case is." It is stated in advance that Wushisan is not allowed to enter the barracks, this is an iron law. You will be welcome to come this time to tell me the facts of the case; Pleading, don't open your mouth. ”

Wang Xianling didn't wait for intercession, but was scolded back by the other party, squeezed out an embarrassing smile on his face, and said: "General, the lower officials dare not intercede for the criminals." But the Sheng family is the only imperial merchant in Lin'an County, and must be transported to the capital after a month on thousands of pounds of soybean oil. This matter all started because Yang was preparing to smoke five stones, and he was the general's brother-in-law and the old general's son-in-law, and the lower official didn't know how to reply to the upper official. ”

Yang Zhongguo squinted lightly at Wang County's order, this Wangxian order, he kept saying that he didn't intercede for the Sheng family, but he beat himself everywhere, saying that he was not tired, and the ghosts didn't believe it.

Yang Zhongguo squinted lightly and said, "Wang County Order, if I were you, I would definitely not come this time." ”

Wang County was stunned, and Yang Zhongguo continued: "Although the Sheng family can become an imperial businessman, although it was initially reported through Lin'an County, the relationship must be the state capital or even the capital. If you can speak in front of my father, you are definitely at the bottom. But until now, you are the only one who has come forward to intercede. ”

Wang Xianling's sweat came down, although he didn't understand the specific reason, but one thing was certain, he really came to the wrong place, he was a small county order with a soft talk, pretending to be a big-tailed wolf, don't lift a stone and hit your own feet.

Yang Zhongguo pursed his lips and said: "You should be glad that you saw me, if it is my father, hearing your words, I am afraid that you will not be able to get out of the camp and be imprisoned as an accomplice." ”

Yang Wei is not old and stubborn, and he also knows how to be sleek and sophisticated, but if he encounters a problem of principle, his true temperament will come up, and ten cows can't pull it back.

Wang Xianling immediately got up and saluted again: "Major General, the lower officials will never intercede for the criminals, because they are afraid that the matter of oil supply will involve the local county government, so they panicked for a while, and they will never dare to do it again in the future." ”

Wang Xianling was bored and walked away.

Yang Zhongguo's eyes were deep and deep, and after a long time, he said to his subordinates: "Help me investigate that peasant girl carefully, everything must be detailed, and the most important thing is ......"

Yang Zhongguo paused, and then worriedly continued: "Investigate the price of bean paste on the market, if the price that Yang Preparatory Office signed with the peasant girl is much higher than the market price, then he is a fake public and private profit, abuse of power, and this organizer will not have to do it in the future." ”

The subordinate was ordered to leave.

To Yang Zhongguo's surprise, the result of his feedback was that the price of Yang Qingyue's purchase of bean paste was much lower than the normal price on the market, giving full play to his vampire bat temperament!

The barracks not only did not suffer at all, but took advantage of it.

.

After another two days, Yang Qingyue still had no news, and the entire Lin'an County, like a pool of stagnant water, Xiangling's heart also became restless, and she decided not to wait for news from the Su family, and went back to Chujia Village first.

As soon as Xiangling arrived at the door, Wang Wenqian ran out of Chuzhuang and stopped Xiangling's carriage in time.

The young man who has always been clean and sunny, his white clothes have become black clothes, full of wrinkles, his hair is like a chicken nest, his face is dim, his stubble is stubble, and he only has a pair of eyes, which are surprisingly bright after seeing Xiangling.

Xiangling had no choice but to jump out from under the car.

Wang Wenqian's mouth was broken: "You can be counted back!" I went to Su Mansion to look for you several times, but they stopped me back; I asked my uncle for help, and he told me to get involved in this matter and took me back. ”

Wang Wenqian looked at Xiangling from head to toe two or three times, and after making sure that she was unharmed, he asked with concern: "Those rude soldiers surrounded Su Mansion and didn't abuse you, right?" Didn't get frozen, didn't starve, didn't get beaten, didn't get scolded......"

Xiangling felt that her brain was buzzing, how could there be such a wordy man? Have a fight with Tang Seng.

Xiangling patiently explained: "I didn't go on trial, I just served Miss Su as a companion, ate well, slept well, dressed well, read books and learned a lot of rare characters, and also learned simple embroidery." ”

Wang Wenqian was finally happy, suddenly turned around and ran home, and said to Xiangling as he ran: "I borrowed a new book for you, you can look at it to relieve your boredom." ”

Soon, Wang Wenqian ran back, took six books in his hand, stuffed them all into Xiangling's arms, and advised: "These are three sets of new books, the story is good, you must read it with a bookmark." ”

Xiangling let out a light "oh", not understanding why Wang Wenqian told the bookmark, was he afraid that he would break his book?

Xiangling suddenly remembered "Asking the Moon" and asked: "Wang Xiucai, I have read the first two books of "Ask the Moon", but I haven't seen the ending, and the third book hasn't been written yet?" ”

Wang Xiucai's face was stunned, and then he replied: "Listening to the shopkeeper of the study, the child who wrote "Asking the Moon" made a lot of money because he wrote books, and he took the money to Linzhou City to prepare for the exam, but he did not write the ending. Looking at the content of the first two books, it should be that a lover will eventually become a family. ”

Xiangling nodded, falling into the cliché story, that's it, blame her amateur entertainment life is too scarce, and even a pedantic scholar's story is relished.

When I entered the house, I put my book in the house and told my family about the five or six days I had been away.

Because Su Xiaoman returned to Su Mansion, Chu Xia moved back to the new house.

Happily, Chu Xia was already able to walk on the ground, but he was not allowed to run or jump.
