After being reborn, she became the richest man without being a queen

Chapter 64

Ren Shaoming didn't go along with Shen Qingling's interruption, he nodded and continued: "After more than ten days of investigation, Shao Yan and I discovered that one of the three grain accounts is in the hands of the Khitan people."

The ghost market is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and it is normal for Khitan people to fish in troubled waters.

The key is private printing.

The private seal was in the hands of Li Chaoren, Ren Shaoming could use some tricks to snatch it back, but one of the private seals is now in the hands of the Khitan people, he dare not act rashly, for fear that if he is careless, he will burn himself.

Facing Ren Shaoming's expectant eyes, Shen Qingling pondered for a moment, then asked: "Did brother take back the food account in Li Chaoren's hands?"

Before Ren Shaoming could answer, hurried footsteps came from outside the hall.The two turned their heads and saw Ren Shaoyan hastily brushing his robe and entering the room from the outside, with an extremely anxious expression on his face.

"What's wrong?" Shen Qingling stood up.

"But it was found?" Ren Shaoming knew that his younger brother came back in such a hurry, it must be the result of the investigation, and hurriedly asked: "Did you not startle the snake along the way?"

There is only one cup of cold tea in the hall.

Ren Shaoyan ran over, picked up the pot and drank a few swigs from the cow, and then replied: "Don't worry, Shaochun is squatting now, but if there is any trouble, he will run away immediately. We found out that the ghost market will be in the future. Opened in the wild forest twenty miles away, "

After finishing speaking, Ren Shaoyan took a letter from the sleeve and handed it to Ren Shaoming.

Inside the letter were two copper coins.

"Second lady thinks, how should we plan this matter?" Ren Shaoming held the two copper coins, his eyes were a little erratic, "People from the government office can't show up, and the three of us brothers will be recognized..."

Ren Shaoming actually didn't want to say these words.

In his eyes, although Shen Qingling is smarter than ordinary people, but she is a young lady who has not reached her age, and he really felt a little sorry for letting her go into the tiger's den alone.

However, on the other side of his conscience was the lives of his whole family.

Shen Qingling was more calm than the two brothers of the Ren family, with a smile on his face, and after sitting back again, he said: "I haven't worried yet, why is my brother worried? This copper coin is the proof of entering the ghost market, right? ? Well, I can go to the ghost market in the future to find out."

Facing Yingxiu and the others, Shen Qingling has always upheld the idea of ​​not repaying favors, so of course it will be different when it comes to Ren's house.

Ren Bingyi is very stubborn, if no real evidence can be found in the wilderness case, then Shen Qingling has to use some kindness that Ren Bingyi cannot refuse to coerce him to release him.

Think what comes.

Originally, Shen Qingling was still pondering whether she should take the initiative to find Ren Bingyi and try to help him solve some cases, but Ren Shaoming sent it to his door by himself.

"Second lady..." Ren Shaoyan also echoed with some embarrassment: "You should not have come forward in this matter. I, we will not force you. If you have concerns, you can speak up."

As a result, Shen Qingling tilted her head and blinked her eyes, teasing him: "If I really don't go, can you possibly find a second person who is qualified to enter the ghost market?"

When Ren Shaoyan heard this, he almost buried his head in the ground in embarrassment.

Seeing this, Shen Qingling got up and raised her hand to pat Ren Shaoyan's arm, and said in relief: "Okay, if I'm really scared, then with my personality, no one can force me to get along with me for so long, second brother doesn't know ?"

Although Ren Shaoming and Ren Shaoyan didn't go to the Shen's house every day like their younger brothers, they would go to the Shen's house every now and then, either to exchange ideas on solving cases with Shen Qingling, or simply to have a pot of tea and a stack of snacks , chat for half a day.

Because of this, Shen Qingling simply followed Ren Shaochun and called them two elder brothers on weekdays, which was a reasonable approximation.

Hearing Shen Qingling's earnest words, Ren Shaoming let out a long sigh, and then said: "Since the second lady agreed to go to the ghost market, then as the eldest brother, I can't keep some things from the second lady."

Contrary to the biography of those two scholars, the fourth son of the Ren family is not actually Ren Bingyi's son.

"In the summer of the third year of Chengde, there was a flood in Gyeonggi, and the officials ordered the Ministry of Industry to guide the water supervisor to avoid danger, did Er Niangzi hear about it?" Ren Shaoming asked indefinitely.

Shen Qingling recalled it in her mind for a while, and said: "Remember, the person who was in charge of diversion back then should be Yi Liang, the envoy of the capital. It's a pity that Yi Liang was indecisive, causing the Hebei and Jingxi rivers to overflow and drown the households."

Afterwards, Yi Liang was dismissed and investigated.

"Exactly." Ren Shaoming nodded and sighed, "Bo Yi and my father were classmates in the past, and they have a deep personal relationship."

In fact, Yi Liang's incident stopped at the beginning of dereliction of duty. The officials didn't even sit down with Yi Liang's family members, nor did they think of cutting off Yi Liang's head. They just wanted to punish some people and comfort the victims in Hebei, Beijing and West. That's all.

However, the wall fell and everyone pushed it back. Yi Liang had just been imprisoned for a few days, and officials from several places in Hebei jointly filed a lawsuit. One sued Yi Liang's wife and brother Chen Wenzhong for committing crimes in Xingzhou in the past ten years. When the new embankment was in Henan, they cut corners and materials, and the guards stole themselves.

"There is no substantive evidence to present these two charges before the officials. Chen Wenzhong didn't say in advance that when Yi Bodu built the Henan New Embankment, he passed through the house three times and never entered. Could it be someone who guards and steals himself?"

Ren Shaoming's words revealed regret.

Shen Qingling suddenly remembered what happened next.In the autumn of the fourth year of Chengde, the Yellow River burst its embankment, and the turbid water submerged Julu County in Xingzhou. Tens of thousands of people were displaced and their wives and children were separated.

"The next year there was a flood in Xingzhou, and the officials were furious. They sentenced Yi Bo, who was imprisoned, to death. All members of the Yi family over the age of ten, regardless of whether they were male or female, were all sitting together. At that time, Yi Bo's son was only six years old. Couldn't bear to see him being exiled to Lingnan, so he secretly hugged the child to his side."

That child is Ren Jiashiro Ren Shaozhuo.

Ren Bingyi can be regarded as the most benevolent to Ren Shaozhuo. For so many years, he has never been harsh on Ren Shaozhuo once. If there are children in the family, Ren Shaozhuo will definitely not let him go.But Ren Shaozhuo seemed to have hidden thorns in his bones, besides making the family jump around, he also made a lot of troubles for Ren Bingyi outside.

Even Mrs. Ren, who has the best temper in the family, hates Ren Shaozhuo extremely.

"After the fourth brother stole the private seal, my father never punished him, but only told him to be careful in his words and deeds after he got married." Ren Shaoming confessed his family's ugliness to Shen Qingling, which was actually a great pressure.

Once word spread that Yi Jiazi was taken in, the Ren family didn't have to wait for the Khitan man to cause trouble at the end of the year, they could directly go to see the officials.If he didn't completely trust Shen Qingling, or if he didn't just run into the food bill, it would be impossible for Ren Shaoming to tell this story to Shen Qingling even if he died.
