Yi Song

Chapter 126 Liu Erlang is a fake!

Cai Chi took an urgent report and hurriedly broke into Zhileju's study. The maid at the door couldn't stop him.

"What's wrong?" Cai Jing raised his head and asked after hearing the movement.

"Dad, something big happened." Cai Ji gasped, his face covered with sweat, "I just received an urgent report from Nanjing Yingtian Mansion."

Cai Jing glanced at him, lowered his head again, and said disapprovingly, "It's just Liu Erlang's memorial to impeach Han Shangxian. Does it actually make you so anxious?"

"No, dad, it's an urgent report jointly written by Liu Erlang and Zhang Qi, saying that Han Shangxian was so ashamed that after his corruption scandal was defeated, he set himself on fire behind closed doors."

"What!" Cai Jing suddenly raised his head, his whole body was nailed to the seat, the pen in his hand fell on the table, and a huge ink flower bloomed on the document.

The maid saw that the atmosphere was not right, so she quickly and quietly exited the room and closed the door.

"Self-immolation for the whole family? Han Shangxian, this hypocrite who is greedy for money as much as his life, where did he get such courage?" Cai Jing put his hands on the table and used all his strength to stand up.

He bent over, walked unsteadily, and staggered around the desk, reaching for the urgent report.

Cai Chi quickly handed over the urgent report, then stepped forward to support him, and helped him sit down on the seat.

Cai Jing quickly read the urgent report and settled there again. The urgent message floated down from his skinny hand and landed lightly on the ground.

Cai Wei quickly stepped forward to pick up the urgent report.

After a while, Cai Jing came back to his senses and wanted to speak, but his lungs and throat suddenly felt hot. He leaned over and coughed violently.

Cai Ji quickly brought a bowl of hot medicine, patted his back gently, and fed him to drink.

Cai Jing leaned back on the chair, his body was tired, his expression was sluggish, his chest was rising and falling violently, and his mouth and nose made a whirring sound, like a bellows riddled with holes, overwhelmed by the load.

"What a ruthless Liu Erlang!" Cai Jing said bitterly, "We still underestimated him."

Cai Jing was full of hatred, but Cai Chi's back was numb and his heart was full of fear.

At this time, he suddenly realized that he was really eating roast chicken in front of a tiger by targeting Liu Erlang everywhere before. He was not killed and has been alive until now. It is really the manifestation of the Three Pure Spirits and the blessing of Buddha.

He now fully believed in his father's judgment. The fourth brother's death was inextricably linked to Liu Erlang, and it was most likely that he had done it himself.

There is no such crazy person as him in the world!

But also extremely cunning.

The murder of the fourth brother was done flawlessly. Everyone in the court thought it was the Khitans who did it, and there was no suspicion at all on him.

Will this time be a great opportunity?

Han Shangxian was a well-known member of the Donghua Sect, a civil servant with a formal Jinshi background. He was a classmate of the same school, so he had a lot of friends.

Although Liu Erlang was domineering, he was just a relative. He was so arrogant, but he stepped on the tail of civil servants.

"Dad, aren't you afraid that Liu Erlang is so unscrupulous?"

Cai Jing raised his head, stared at those triangular eyes, and asked viciously: "What are you afraid of? What is he afraid of?"

"Isn't Liu Erlang afraid of revenge for those who have benefited from Han Shangxian?"

"You must have taken money from Han Shangxian. Are you willing to come forward and avenge Han Shangxian's injustice?" Cai Jing asked coldly.

Am I crazy?

How could I risk my life and property with a mad tiger for how much money I had earned?

Cai Wei was stunned, yes, I think so, and other people who took the money also thought so.

Taking money to do things is a matter of course. But if your client is gone, who should I handle?

Isn’t this account settled?

Cai Wei said unwillingly: "Dad, won't those Han Shangxian's fellow students and those who are the top scholars speak out?"

"Han Shangxian embezzled 620,000 shi of grain. The evidence is conclusive, and he admitted it himself. How can his classmates and classmates redress their grievances? Are they saying that he is unrepentant, has no conscience to awaken, no awakening, and no atonement with death?

Liu Erlang, count them to death. Knowing that these scholars have a cold nature and love to be shameless, Han Shangxian left the last fig leaf before his death for these scholars, these Jinshis who were called by the Donghua Sect, to leave a fig leaf. Do you think they will take the initiative to tear off this fig leaf? "

Cai Jing became more and more excited as he talked, and finally couldn't help but gasp and cough a few more times.

Cai Chi quickly brought the snow pear and Sichuan clam soup, fed it and drank a few sips.

Cai Jing regained his breath and asked impatiently: "Fifth brother, you still haven't found the key to the whole thing."

"Dad, what's the point?"

"The whole thing is complicated, and the most important thing is to dredge the Bianhe River as soon as possible. At the beginning of spring, before the money and grain from the major warehouses in Kaifeng are exhausted, the money and grain from the southeast will be transported up, so that the officials have money to spend; the Huashi Gang, Yuqian Gang Yun came up and let the officials have rare treasures to play with.

Apart from that, do you think the official family would care if a Jinshi or an eighth-grade official died? What's more, this official was a corrupt official who had embezzled 620,000 shi of grain, causing the Bianhe River dredging project to almost fail! Do you think the officials will care? "

Cai Ji was stunned.

Officials don’t care! Maybe it's quite cool.

It would be a shame to die if you obstruct the dredging of the Bianhe River and delay his enjoyment!

In this case, even if some of Han Shangxian's classmates and friends are unwilling to give in, and there are some who can't bear to stand in the clear stream, and they are impeached, they will sink into the sea and not even make a splash.

Cai Wei asked hesitantly: "Dad, Liu Erlang is so thoughtful and ruthless, do you still want to make the move that Zhu Meng and his son made?"

"Keep moving! We have underestimated Liu Erlang, we can no longer underestimate the enemy! Let Zhu Meng and his son have their usual attack to contain Liu Erlang's attention.

You told me last time that Yuan Tianbao, a businessman from eastern Zhejiang, found you at Fuchunju’s employer’s house. Is he still there? "

"Yes, still in the capital."

"Call him over now."

"Yes. My son will send someone to call him immediately."

Half an hour later, Yuan Tianbao (Fang Tianbao) was led by Cai Chi himself into Zhileju's study.

Cai Jing was sitting behind the screen, with six followers standing behind him. He looked like a master at first sight.

After Yuan Tianbao had saluted, Cai Jing said through the screen: "Sit down!"

"Thank you, Master."

"Should I call you Yuan Dong's family or Fang Dong's family?"

Fang Tianbao knelt down and said, "Master, please forgive me! I am traveling around the world and the world is dangerous, so I always use a pseudonym."

"Muzhou tycoon, who are you, Fang La, the leader of the Muni Sect?" Cai Jing asked, not giving him any chance to breathe.

Fang Tianbao hesitated for a while, then heard a cold snort from behind the screen, and quickly replied: "As far as I'm concerned, Fang La is my father."

"Why did Liu Erlang ask Zhang Zeduan to search your Fuchun Residence?"

"Because I doubt his identity."

"What is his identity?"

"He is not Liu Hu and Liu Guozhang, or the nephew of Queen Mingda! He is an imposter!"

Fang Tianbao raised his head, his fat round face full of coldness and solemnity.

Cai Ji was overjoyed, opened his mouth, and swallowed back the sound he wanted to make.

Behind the screen, Cai Jing's figure remained motionless and did not make a sound for a long time.
