Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 76: It’s hard to pinpoint the benefits of moving people

With doubts, Chen Zhi and Chen Wu returned to Fengyang Street and saw two Zaoli standing at the street entrance. When they saw Chen Zhi, they immediately came up to question him, and became polite after knowing his identity.

"Chen Junzi, please go back first. We are ordered to guard. As long as you don't go out, there will be nothing." The two said a few words and then mentioned Zhang Hu, who seemed to be one of the beneficiaries of Chen Zhi's broken piece of silver, so he was particularly special. close.

When Chen Zhi left, someone whispered: "We see that Mr. Chen is a hero, so let's get to the bottom of it first. Mr. Bai has reported it to the official, saying that you burned down the building. You have to be careful."

Another person also said: "Mr. Bai is very powerful. Please hurry up and send someone to the Chen Mansion to inform him. If your manor comes forward, Mr. Bai can only bow his head."

"Thank you both for reminding me!"

Chen Zhichong cupped his hands and took out a few big coins and handed them over. The two Zaoli refused repeatedly, but of course they accepted them in the end, which made the little book boy feel very distressed.

This time Chen Zhi went to Qingyuan Village and his family fortune was emptied again. Once he took out the money, even though it was only five baht, it was still a little less.

Saying goodbye to Zaoli, the master and the servant continued to move forward. Chen Wu couldn't help complaining: "Young master, you can't spend money lavishly anymore. Those two people just now are just ordinary Zaoli, vulgar people, why spend money on them. "

"If you can buy things with money, you don't need to be stingy with money. You think the two of them are useless, but if I hadn't prepared in advance, that news alone could change a lot of things. This is the value. Besides, all the money will be gone." Come back again, don’t worry about temporary gains and losses.”

When they arrived in front of Shulin Zhai, they were greeted by Chen Fu and Chen Ting with sad faces.

"Master, you are back." As soon as Chen Fu came up to him, he looked up and down. He was relieved when he saw that there was no damage on Chen Zhi's body.

"Brother, have you heard? Qingyuan Village is on fire!" Chen Ting stared at Chen Zhi, "It has nothing to do with brother, right?" As soon as Chen Zhi went to Bai Qing's territory, news came that Qingyuan Village was on fire. , Chen Ting couldn’t even think about it.

"Have Bai Qing's people come?" Chen Zhi saw his second brother's expression and knew what he was thinking, "Don't worry, the blame is not on me. When I came, I saw people from the government here. Guard at the intersection, has anything happened before?"

Chen Fu came up to answer this question: "I came half an hour ago, and my attitude was very bad, but soon the people from the government came to drive them away, and stayed outside again."

Chen Ting said with a worried look on his face: "What should we do now? Even if the fire in Qingyuan Village has nothing to do with you, brother, I'm afraid the white tiger won't let it go."

Chen Zhi pondered for a moment when he heard the words, then nodded and said: "I guess there will be a lot of trouble, so I need to recharge my energy first." Then he walked into the house.

"Brother, you're back!" Chen Xi poked his head out, and when he saw Chen Zhi, he looked happy, and then became sad.

Chen Ting chased after him and asked, "How do I recharge my batteries?"

"Sleep first," Chen Zhi walked up to the second floor under the surprised eyes of everyone, and said as he walked, "Replenish your energy so that you can face the battle, otherwise your energy will be low and your thinking will be affected. Second brother, ask someone to report to Chen's mansion." Please tell me the crime for me. No matter what, it’s my fault for hiding it from them this time. Let them not worry about the rest.”

At the end of the night, he had exhausted a lot of energy and was feeling tired. He really needed a rest.

Chen Fu and the two young masters were not in the mood to sleep. After going to the Chen Mansion to report, they discussed countermeasures in the hall, but after going around, they didn't have any clue at all.

More than two hours later, several Zaoli came and knocked on the door, led by Zhao Hu.

"Is Mr. Chen here?" A group of people said very politely, "I have been ordered to come over and ask him to go to the county government office for questioning."

"I'll report it right away." When Chen Ting saw this formation, he was a little confused. Although he had expected it, he still couldn't help but panic when things came to a close.

The atmosphere in the entire Shulinzhai became solemn.

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Zhi came down from upstairs after washing and dressing up. He cupped his hands at Zhang Hu and said, "I'm going to trouble Brother Zhang Cha again."

"No trouble, please..." Zhang Hu stepped forward to greet him. Seeing that Chen Zhi didn't look panicked and looked as normal, he couldn't help but secretly marveled. Even if this ordinary person didn't do anything, as soon as he heard that he was going to Gongmen, It's also inevitable to be nervous.

"This Chen Zhi is indeed no ordinary person."

"Brother..." Chen Ting followed beside Chen Zhi, hesitating to speak.

Chen Zhi turned around and said, "Don't think too much, I definitely want to go this time."

Zhang Hu and others also walked over, said a few comforting words based on past experience, and then led Chen Zhi away, leaving behind a room full of worried people. "I'll go to the Chen Mansion again and say that the young master was taken away by the yamen!" Chen Fu was the first to realize that at this time, the Chen Mansion had to help.

………………

At the same time, a conversation was taking place in a side room of the county government office.

"Guys, after this is done, I will be very grateful. To tell you the truth, I have evidence of the Chen family's crimes in my hand, which is enough to bring down the Chen family! This is no exaggeration. I have already asked my subordinates to contact them. It will be very soon. We can get the witnesses and physical evidence soon, and when we tell other aristocratic families, the Chen family will definitely fall, this is our chance!"

Bai Qing gathered the stall owners together, lowered his voice, and said seriously: "I'll tell you all about it. You all know my ambition. I will open this casino sooner or later. I will wait for the time to come and take over all the casinos." Going out will be a good deal when the time comes, we brothers can discuss it easily, and the wealth will not go to outsiders!"

After a lot of coercion and inducement, he talked about the relationship between his family's property and everyone, and also mentioned the hidden dangers of the Chen family. Although he did not explain it, he was very confident, and finally offered the benefits of the gambling house.

There is a saying that profit makes one's mind faint, while wealth touches people's hearts. These stall owners opened gambling houses and bought properties just for money. When Bai Qing said this, they all became moved.

Bai Qing saw the opportunity, glanced over, and a stall owner who had made an agreement with him said: "No wonder Brother Bai has been so ruthless in making money in the past two years. It turned out that he planned to just hug him and leave. Can this gambling house really be left to us?" "

"If I don't give it to you, who will I leave it to? Once our Bai family takes a step forward, we can't still control these things." Bai Qing laughed and was moved again, "We are all old friends, and I know your concerns well. In this way Well, you all just need to stand in the hall for a moment to embolden me, how about it? I’ve already said this, I should give Bai some face."

With coercion and inducement, plus the help of the nurse, a combination of punches was used, and everyone was already moved and no longer rejected him.

Bai Qing took advantage of the victory and said, "Let's do this. Let's prepare the documents now. I'll take out two gambling houses to make lottery prizes, sign them, and give them to others after the deal is completed."

He was spending real money and bleeding heavily to win.

As soon as he said this, the others were finally tempted and came over.

Seeing this, Bai Qing said with a smile: "Brothers, believe in Bai, in terms of the situation, we have the upper hand! I have news that the Chen family will die."

………………

The lights in the back office were also brightly lit, and the county magistrate Yang Yongzheng was listening to Liu Yang's report.

Not long after he fell asleep, he was pulled up by someone. After dealing with the emergency, he went to report to the sheriff. When he came back, he began to listen to Liu Yang's simple report on the case.

Yang Yong knew the name of Qingyuan Manor in Pengcheng. Not long ago, Bai Qing sent him an invitation, but Yang Yong did not accept the invitation. However, he also knew that the pavilion had cost the Bai family a lot of effort, and now it turned out that Burned?

Liu Yang made an introduction.

"The Bai family is also a big family in Pengcheng. There are many clans. If they are not handled well, problems will arise." Yang Yong frowned, "Does the person who set the fire have any clues?"

"This," Liu Yang hesitated before saying, "the witness testified that Chen Zhi was the culprit of the arson!"

"Chen Zhi? Is it the Chen Zhi from before?" Yang Yong frowned more and more, "Who are the witnesses?"

"In addition to Bai Qing, there are several big stalls..." Liu Yang announced several names. Every time he said one, Liu Yong's brows raised a little. By the time he finished speaking, the county magistrate had already Sneered.

"Okay, so many people are unanimous. Are they holding the Chen family's hand? Otherwise, they dare to attack? This Bai Qingfeng has a bad reputation, but he is quite courageous. After all, Chen Zhi is also a descendant of the aristocratic family. Setting fires is something like this. It can't be done, but Chen Zhi's reputation is also not good. This matter needs to be investigated clearly, caught, beaten and warned. I heard that Chen Chi went to Liuxian County and planned to submit Chen Zhi's name. Go up and let Zhongzheng comment. If this happens, I’m afraid we won’t be able to get what we want.”

After saying that, he said to Liu Yang: "Inform Wu County Magistrate and have someone prepare the prison. Let Bai Qing and Chen Mansion stay there until the fifth watch before he goes to court!"

"No!" Liu Yang heard it. This boss had a slight prejudice against Chen Zhi, but he still had the instinct to protect the family. Thinking of the gossip, he was already convinced.

"It seems that the rumors are true. The county magistrate had already cultivated his connections and planned to move to another place. However, because of Xu Fang's matter, he had to use them in advance. The transfer failed. No wonder he was angry with Chen Zhi. If Chen Chi submitted a letter If this happens, it will be a bad deed if it is not handled well, but if it is handled well, the past reputation can be reversed and the evaluation can be directly improved to a higher level. This is a blessing and a disaster."

However, this had nothing to do with him, Liu Yang. Although he admired Chen Zhi's calligraphy, he had no need to contradict his superiors for it, so he kept in mind his father's warning that all business should be done in an official manner.
