The man behind the tax and bank case was Zhou ShilangXu Pingzhi smashed the coffee table with a slap, stood up angrily, his eyes widened, and he opened his mouth to curse, but there seemed to be something stuck in his throat.
Xu New Year glanced at his impotent and furious father, his handsome face was extremely serious, "The news is reliable?"
Xu Qi'an nodded: "One of the chief officials in charge of the tax and bank case, Chu Caiwei from the Sitianjian told me."
He repeated Chu Caiwei's words.
Xu Nian raised his teacup, put it down again, and said in a deep thought: "It seems that what happened today was not accidental, but Zhou immediately wanted revenge."
Yes, as expected of a scholar who can pass the exam, his brain is very useful.
Xu Qi'an was a little overjoyed, knowing that this conversation would not be in vain.
If it was only Uncle Xu, he would not have brought up this secret conversation, it would be meaningless.
Because the second uncle was in a hurry, he would only say: "It's a brother, so follow me to kill someone."
There is no way, after all, he is a vulgar martial artist, he is good at cutting people, but he is blind when he is scheming, and his professional fields are different.
Xu Qi'an took the exam and said, "What does Erlang think?"
Xu Nian glanced at his cousin and frowned, as if he was dissatisfied with his tone of the school examination, and said in a bad mood:
"What should I do? Of course, it is better to strike first, and then to suffer."
YesXu Qi'an was taken aback, it was hard to imagine that Xu New Year would say such decisive words.
Hearing this, Uncle Xu, who considered himself the head of the family and the backbone of the family, felt that he could not remain silent, and reprimanded his son:
"Put away your ignorant and arrogant thoughts, don't say you are a mere candidate, even if you win the first prize, you still can't afford to offend the servant of the household department."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was ruthlessly rejected by his nephew: "I think Erlang's idea is right."
Xu Qi'an went on to say: "We did not offend Zhou Li, but Zhou Xianping, Minister of the Household Department. Zhou Li may not dare to retaliate, but what about the Minister of the Household Department?"
"We not only spoiled his good deeds, but also injured his son-in-law. As long as he is a person with a sense of fireworks, it is absolutely unreasonable to bear it. Besides, in the eyes of Zhou Shilang, the Xu family is no different from an ant. ? He has no reason to let us go."
Xu Pingzhi refused to accept: "No, we can't beat Zhou Shilang. Ning Yan, you met Si Tianjian's white clothes, and you are a student of Yunlu Academy in the New Year. With these two relationships, as long as we keep our own, no one will dare to provoke you."
Is it really?
Xu Qi'an reminded: "Second Uncle, you may not know that Si Tianjian's white clothes do not interfere with the court affairs."
Xu Cijiu went on to say: "Didn't I also be a student of Yunlu Academy during the tax and bank case? Today, the eldest brother can come back because Zhou Li is unreasonable and his methods are too low-level, but if Zhou Shilang takes action, there will be another tax and bank case." , Reasonably and legally let the whole family of the Xu family be executed, could it be possible that Sitianjian and Yunlu Academy can still rob the prison for us? For us to fight against the law?"
Xu Pingzhi, who felt that the majesty of the head of the family was under attack, frowned, "But, what should we do, deal with the servant of the household department, and be dignified and upright"
I don't know either, I'm just a simple travelerXu Qi'an cast his eyes on the handsome little brother:
"What does Erlang think?"
Xu New Year was silent. After a long time, when Xu Pingzhi was getting impatient, he said slowly: "I've been thinking about one thing just now."
"The emperor was furious when the tax money was robbed. It is obvious that he attaches great importance to the money. The prisoner should be severely punished."
"Didn't those two punks commit suicide in fear of crime?" Xu Pingzhi said.
Glancing at his father, Xu Nian ignored him, and continued: "I can think of two possibilities, one: the servant of Hubu has a backer behind him. Two: the emperor has concerns, such as maintaining a delicate balance. "
"Brother said that the Ministry of Household Affairs impeached Zhou Shilang for embezzling the state treasury. Why didn't he impeach another servant, and the Minister of the Household Department?"
Xu Qi'an's heart moved: "Zhou Shilang's political opponents are dealing with him?"
Xu Xinnian nodded: "The teacher said that from ancient times to the present, the core of imperial art has always been balance. The emperor did not touch Zhou Shilang, which shows that this matter may involve party disputes."
"Then what should we do?" Second Uncle Xu asked subconsciously.
Xu Qi'an rubbed his chin, thinking about it and said: "The emperor's mentality may be useful in normal times, but now that the Jingcha is approaching, as long as he can catch Zhou Shilang's handle, there is a great possibility to kill him. Even the emperor can't just go his own way. The core of the Confucian dragon-slaying technique is the word "ritual system". So Zhou Shilang's political opponents will not stop there. "
Xu New Year was taken aback. Unexpectedly, the word "Dragon Slaying Technique" popped out of the rough cousin's mouth. Is this the Kuaishou cousin?
I just watch too many costume dramas! Xu Qi said with peace of mind.
Of course, part of the reason is that I have learned more history.
History books are the quintessence of human culture. If you study history carefully, you will learn a lot from it.
History books are also the most useless things, because the only lesson humans can learn from history is that humans can't learn any lessons from history.
Xu Qi'an, who likes to read history, originally scoffed at this sentence, but later found out that it made sense.
The reason is that when he was studying, his parents and teachers always said earnestly: You must study hard and study hard, otherwise you will regret it in the future.
No one takes it seriously.
It wasn't until he experienced setbacks and was severely beaten by the society that he woke up.
Xu Qi'an's cousin is not fond of reading. He failed in business, and once blurted out: You have to study hard, otherwise you will regret it in the future.
After speaking, he suddenly froze.
Xu New Year raised his chin, and said in the tone of an exam school: "Then what do you think the elder brother should do."
You really don't want to admit defeat If you are the heroine, this arrogant character is not very pleasingI prefer 36d Yujie who is coquettish and cuteXu Qi'an complained in his heart , said calmly:
"Why did Zhou Shilang create a tax and bank case? It must not be corruption, because corruption can be done at any time, why bother to be at the forefront of the Jingcha?"
"Unless he needs a sum of money urgently, he needs this money to fill the hole, and the reason for filling the hole is to deal with Jingcha." Xu Qi'an gave full play to his logical reasoning ability.
"So?" Xu New Year's mouth twitched.
So we need to find out the real reason why Zhou Shilang embezzled tax money, we have to solve the case, so that Zhou Shilang has nowhere to hide, plead guilty to the law Xu Qi'an was about to say this when he suddenly saw Xu Erlang's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not a smile, He didn't say anything.
"I see!" Second Uncle Xu slapped his thigh, spitting all over the place excitedly: "So we want to expose this matter, so that the surname Zhou has nothing to hide."
He was so excited, he felt that his brain finally had a flash of light.
I'm not stupid Uncle Xu thought proudly.
Xu Xinnian let out a "huh": "Father thinks that, with your identity as the imperial sword guard of hundreds of households, you can openly investigate the servant of the household department and have access to the files of the household department?"
Xu Pingzhi's face froze instantly.
Xu Dalang let out a "huh": "Of course it's impossible."
Thank you, Second Uncle, for visiting Lei.
Xu Nian, who failed to suppress his cousin intellectually, was a little dissatisfied, and asked, "What do you think the elder brother should do?"
Xu Qi'an tapped the table lightly with his fingertips, "We are not the main force to deal with Zhou Shilang, to drive away tigers and wolves. What we have to do is the last straw that breaks the camel's back."
As for how to do it, he hasn't figured it out yet.
It's not badXu Nian nodded approvingly, and said, "Take a step back, we don't have to deal with Zhou Shilang, a dignified third-rank official, who has scheming and tricks. It's not something we can deal with now, but there are people." weakness."
Xu Qi'an's eyes lit up, and he clapped excitedly: "Zhou Li!"
"Yes, compared to Zhou Shilang, Zhou Li's dandy is easier to deal with. The charges of impeachment are not sufficient, so we will create charges. Pass the knife to Zhou Xianping's political opponents and let them help me kill Zhou Xianping." Xu Xinian Canruo A sinister look flashed in Xingchen's eyes:
"The Beijing inspection is imminent. If Zhou Shilang's young master does something outrageous, as a father, Zhou Xianping cannot escape the responsibility. The emperor is willing to protect once, but not necessarily willing to protect him a second time."
Having said that, Xu Nian frowned and said: "Although this entry point is good, it's just that I'm not a fool, and the method of framing the blame may not be effective."
Second Uncle Xu listened to his son and nephew talking to each other, and suddenly realized that he, the head of the family, had been pushed to the edge of this secret conversation, completely unable to intervene.
But with his son's analysis layer by layer, Uncle Xu's thinking became clearer and clearer, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. I couldn't help but slapped the table excitedly:
"My son has the capital to be the chief assistant when he resigns from the old age."
Could it be that your nephew and I don't have the capital to be the chief assistant? Xu Qi'an gave his second uncle a sideways look, and took the opportunity to diss Xu Erlang:
"Erlang, so you can't escape the rut if you say that scholars are harming the country with empty talk."
The corner of Xu Erlang's mouth twitched, and he said sarcastically, "Brother, please enlighten me."
Xu Qi'an didn't panic at all, "I can't give you a ready-made solution, but I can provide you with an idea."
Uncle Xu said urgently: "Say it quickly." (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com)sp; Uncle Xu said anxiously: "Speak quickly." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
