Chapter 403
Because of a previous father-in-law's instructions, when Tang Yanxiu saw someone dressed as an official came to ask, he immediately said "truthfully".

Naturally, the words given by a certain father-in-law were used.

I thought it was just a simple narration of the so-called truth, but I never thought that a trace of displeasure flashed across the faces of those officials.

If Tang Yanxiu was really a 13-year-old boy, she might not have noticed such details.However, Tang Yanxiu's heart skipped a beat when he had memories from his previous life, and a thought flashed through his mind quickly.

These people should not be sent by the Holy One, but belong to the Wan Family.

However, Tang Yanxiu was very suspicious. Even if the Wan family had two queens, it was still a merchant family after all.The heirs of the Wan family, the eldest sons of the family are all businessmen, and the other families have entered the official career, but they have never heard of any high-ranking officials.

This is also normal.

Although the three great righteous merchants devoted their wealth to helping Emperor Taizu conquer the world, this dynasty allowed the sons of merchants to enter the official career through the imperial examination.

But that's all!

Entering an official career is not a simple sentence.Even if I am amazingly talented and successfully entered the palace examination, the subsequent rankings are still ordered by the Holy One.Even if you really get fame, fame and official position are not the same thing, and official position and actual lack should not be confused.

There are many sons of merchants who have achieved fame, but most of them stay in Qingshui yamen like the Imperial Academy.

Otherwise, even if you get a Que'er who is released outside, it can only be a sesame official of the eighth and ninth ranks.

The best example is Huaxian Cheng, who had been arguing with Mo Qianrui for a long time before. He was born in a serious imperial examination, and he was the only one who relied on him from beginning to end.From being the heir of a merchant family to finally sitting on the position of Bapin County Prime Minister, he has put in too much painstaking effort.

But what about after?

Even if Tang Yanxiu and Mo Qianrui hadn't been harmed by the joint efforts of Tang Yanxiu and Mo Qianrui, in the case of Huaxian Cheng, even if his official career was smooth sailing, he estimated that the seventh-rank official would be at the top.

The Wan family is naturally stronger than the Hua family, and the foundation of the Wan family is in Jingdu County, so the official career of the offspring will naturally be much smoother than that of Hua Xian Cheng, a collateral descendant of the Hua family.But no matter how smooth it is, the Wan family is a merchant after all, and even if the heirs are amazing and talented, they will not receive the treatment of those truly famous families because they have no elders to protect them during their official career.

At most, it is slightly better than those poor children.

From the founding of the country to the present, for more than a hundred years, even if the Wan family has a member in the palace, but due to the statement that the harem and the palace are not allowed to interfere in politics, among the descendants of the Wan family, the highest official position is only the fifth-rank Shaoqing of Taichang Temple .

But Taichang Temple...

He has face, but almost no power.

"Do you still have questions about the poor?" Tang Yanxiu quickly recalled the official positions of the Wan family's heirs, and was sure that even if the officials in front of him were bought by the Wan family, they could not really give their lives to the Wan family.

Even if some people want money but don't want their lives, there are seven or eight officials in front of them, can't they all be like this?

Thinking of this, Tang Yanxiu was determined.

It's a pity that he was lucky to be a little earlier.

"Think about it carefully, could it be that you misremembered the cause of death of your parents?"

If the tone of the officer's servant was barely amiable when he asked before, now he is clearly displeased.

Tang Yanxiu hesitated for a moment. Naturally, he would not remember it wrongly. After all, it was only the day before yesterday that the father-in-law came to deliver a message, so it is impossible for him to remember it wrongly.At least tell the truth, huh, huh, Tang Yanxiu said that he doesn't want to confront the Holy Majesty at all.

Having figured it out, Tang Yanxiu nodded affirmatively.

"There's nothing wrong with that."

As soon as these words came out, the face of the officer who asked the question before was not good.Immediately, several officials exchanged glances, and the previous one still spoke, wanting to take Tang Yanxiu back for questioning.

Tang Yanxiu didn't even refuse, so she agreed without hesitation.

However, before leaving, he secretly gave Mo Qianrui a look while no one was paying attention.

……

At night, Mo Qianrui entered the space, and it was no surprise that Tang Yanxiu was already waiting in the space hut.

"As you wish, I have spread the news that Wanjia sent people to take you away. Of course, I didn't directly say that it was Wanjia, but only said that they were some vicious people dressed as officials, and described them in detail. How to force you to change your mouth and say that the elders of the Tang family all died of illness."

Quickly fiddled with a table of delicious food, the young couple began to exchange information while eating.

Mo Qianrui said it relatively simply, after all, she was only responsible for spreading the rumors.

Mo Qianrui is already very skilled at how to secretly spread rumors after dragging some top-notch blessings such as Huaxian Cheng and Liu Rong.

But Tang Yanxiu's side was a little thrilling.

First, he filled a large bowl of rice and went down, and after a little bit of the bottom, Tang Yanxiu said, "They want to torture me! Cough, at first, they just used words to extract a confession, and then saw that I insisted on the original statement. Why? I also refused to change it, so I planned to torture and extract a confession. Fortunately, I was clever and hid in the space when I saw no one around."

"Are you sure this is called cleverness?"

"Of course!"

"You... Forget it, what are you going to do next?"

"After a whole day, rumors and rumors should have spread. Don't think that Jingdu County is at the foot of the so-called emperor. The level of gossip here is no lower than that in the countryside. Tomorrow, you don't have to spread rumors, you Just go to the Yamen to ask for someone. No matter what, I am not a criminal, just asking a question, and if I ask someone to disappear, I will naturally make a fuss."

The corner of Mo Qianrui's mouth twitched fiercely, he endured it again and again, but he still couldn't help asking how he planned to get out in the future.

In the end, Tang Yanxiu looked embarrassed: "Don't worry, I didn't disappear in the death row. In fact, it was in the side hall of the government office. They probably didn't guard against me at all, and they didn't think about arresting me in prison. Maybe even the so-called torture to extort a confession is to frighten me. At that time, when the matter is over, it will not be difficult to sneak out of the yamen."

Hearing what Tang Yanxiu said, Mo Qianrui immediately felt relieved.

As for how to go to the Yamen to ask for important people, Mo Qianrui couldn't be bothered.

Going to the yamen is not an imperial petition, so it doesn't need to be troublesome.

At that time, it shouldn't be difficult to drag Tang's aunt, cry, make trouble, and hang himself, insisting that the yamen release Tang Yanxiu, who is innocent in the first place, right?
difficult!
It's too difficult for those officials who have received money to do private affairs!
First, after Mo Qianrui spread the word for a day, the rumors began to intensify.Originally, the common people gossip, and a good thing will change its taste if it is passed through the mouths of many people, let alone such things as Zhonglie being arrested by others.

Thanks to the ancestors of the Tang family, the family education of the Tang family is extremely strict.

Even if there are a few heirs who do not have the talent of military generals occasionally, they will be strictly disciplined, not seeking glory for the ancestors, but not embarrassing the ancestors.

Even the scumbags like Uncle Tang's have a good reputation in Jingdu County.The bad reputation caused by the troubles caused by the Tang family has also been washed away a few days ago.It can be said that the members of the Tang family are all good in the eyes of ordinary people in Jingdu County.

The opposite is Wanjia.

Three days after Tang Yanxiu disappeared, the Holy Majesty summoned Mo Qianrui and Tang's aunt, and decided to personally investigate the matter!
