Chapter 47 Prefect Banquet
A wind lantern was hung in the corridor, and her pretty little face was clearly illuminated by the light yellow halo.

The eyes of the little girl who just woke up were slightly drunk, and the delicate and misty light was rippling in her eyes, like sparkling water.Standing on tiptoe, like a hibiscus standing on a branch, just one glance made him feel slightly swayed.

Wei Ziqian hid the burning heat well up in his chest, and smiled warmly at her, "Are you awake?"

Xia Sichan's eyes gradually cleared up, and she casually asked, "Are you still asleep?"

Wei Ziqian stared at the smoky beauty, with a gentle smile on his lips: "I just finished processing some paperwork, and thinking about the day's affairs made you wronged. From now on, this kind of thing will never happen again."

After Wei Ziqian finished his business, he remembered that he didn't apologize to her.

When I walked over, I realized that it was getting deeper and the dew was heavy, and I was about to leave, but I didn't expect the lights in the house to light up, and the little wife appeared at the window.

Xia Sichan was shocked: Is this person apologizing to her?
She couldn't help raising her water eyes to look at him.

Thinking about the first time she saw him smile in her two lifetimes, it was really a smile, so handsome!
No wonder it attracted countless young girls to fly to him like moths to a flame...

Thinking of this, Xia Sichan curled up her lips and said, "Your Majesty Wei, you don't need to apologize, this is what I should do. Don't we have three chapters?"

"Well, yes." Wei Ziqian choked, the good mood in his heart disappeared instantly, and said in a stiff voice: "Then you should rest early."

"Well, okay." How could Xia Sichan care about his bad mood?He hurriedly closed the window, turned around and walked in.

······
The business banquet in Chuanzhou City was held more grandly than Wei Ziqian expected.

There are not only big local merchants in Chuanzhou, but also merchants in nearby cities.

The most striking thing is that many of them are shipping merchants.

As soon as Wei Ziqian entered the door, he sat in the corner and sipped tea quietly, listening to the doorman's orders.As the names of the visitors came up one by one, his thick long eyelashes drooped quietly.

It seems that the magistrate is a fat fish, he can't be negligent!

In other words, how could there be no local officials involved in smuggling salt?
The question is whether local officials dominate, or are they dereliction of duty or even accepting bribes.

Just like the salt smuggling case in Chuanzhou City, if Jiang Qingyuan is behind the scenes, then what awaits him will be the death penalty of losing his head.

After entering the inner house, Wei Ziqian saw the majestic magistrate's mansion in front of him.

Such magnificence, if it is placed in the capital, it is believed to be the mansion of the prince's family!

No wonder people say that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the local officials are the earth emperors.

Even though not everyone in the capital is upright, but because they are at the feet of the emperor, at least no one dares to go beyond the rules when it comes to mansion construction.Even the emperor's most beloved princes are honest and responsible in the courtyard.

Naturally, although he was doing his duty on the surface, he didn't know what would happen in the dark.From design to decoration, there is a lot of knowledge inside.

Tsk, I didn't expect a magistrate to be so presumptuous?

It seems that behind this person, there is really a tough one behind him!

Wei Ziqian sighed in his heart, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

He sat among the guests, spoofed with them, and gleaned the inside story he wanted from the little details they talked about.

······
This time Kang Cheng did not stay to protect Xia Sichan, Wei Ziqian left Wei Yi in the inn.

Wei Ziqian knew that the magistrate's wife would not dare to make trouble anymore, so he brought Kang Cheng here to make things easier.

At this time, Kang Cheng had already sneaked into Jiang Qingyuan's study room when there were too many people and the servants of the Jiang family could not take care of them.

Looking at the huge and luxurious study room, there are not many books, but antiques can be seen everywhere.A three-foot-long pagoda carved out of pure white ivory, this thing is placed in the palace, it is also a rare thing, but now it is placed there so casually, as if it is just a small thing that can be seen at hand like.The ones hanging on the wall, the ones on the desk, and the Duobao Pavilion are full of them, so I couldn't help but chuckle.

He knew that it was impossible for the owner of the study to place important documents casually on the facade, and there must be a secret room or other dark place to store important things.

Therefore, he took his time and groped with experience on the walls and bookcases of the exquisitely decorated study room.
Unexpectedly, without his effort, his hand stretched out to a protruding place in the bookcase, and the bookcase "creaked" and turned away, and a dark room appeared in front of him.

Kang Cheng experienced and tried to pick out the letters between Jiang Qingyuan and the big figures in the capital, as well as the criminal evidence of smuggling salt from many documents.

Then, pressing the hidden button, the "creaking" dark cabinet returned to its original state.

……

The banquet in Jiang's Mansion has just started. Due to the large number of guests, the venue for the banquet is in the back garden of Jiang's Mansion. The hibiscus flowers are brilliant, and the colorful butterflies are flying. Looking under the green leaves among the flowers, the sparkling water is still.

During the staggering, the guests came to the banquet not to eat and drink, but to connect with each other for business with "haha" and fake smiles on their faces.

Having succeeded, Kang Cheng gave a signal to Wang Lin in the dark, and left quietly.

Wang Lin saw that the banquet was almost coming to an end, and the master had already got what he wanted, so there was no need for the master to stay in this smoky place and pretend to be a snake with them.

Then he appeared and walked over, facing Wei Ziqian, who was struggling to deal with a red-faced and bearded businessman, bowed and reported: "Master, Ma'am is not feeling well, I sent someone to send a message, I hope you will go back soon."

Wei Ziqian is getting bored!
Hearing this, he pretended to be angry and reprimanded: "Presumptuous, I'm talking about business with Master Yan!"

As soon as the master Yan heard it, he knew that the handsome young man in front of him was an ear-splitter.She smiled knowingly: "Young Master Wei, it's better to go back to accompany Madam Zun first, we will see you by fate."

When Wei Ziqian heard this, pretending to be reluctant, he stood up and bowed his hands to everyone on the table: "I'm sorry everyone, Wei has something to do, so let's go first."

There are a few familiar faces here, like the Zhang family, seeing him get up in a hurry, they joked: "Young Master Wei, it's hard to leave Meijiao Niang for a moment!"

Zhang Jiayin said in his mouth, and thought in his heart: such a beautiful woman, anyone would always care about her.

He held a banquet at his house that day, and when he found out about Madam Zhifu's plan afterwards, he felt ecstasy in his heart.

If Meijiao Niang becomes an abandoned wife, then he can easily take her back to be an aunt.

Unexpectedly, this Mr. Wei did not buy into the prefect's wife's account, not only did not divorce his wife, but also ruined the prefect's wife's reputation.

He is a man of true temperament!
The lustful Zhang Jiayin couldn't help but admire Wei Ziqian from the bottom of his heart.

 Kang Cheng: The magistrate's house is really luxurious!The decorations in the study are all priceless...
