I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 456 The Law
Chapter 456

Zhan Feiyu looked thoughtfully at Jin Jiuye who wanted to "spend money for his life". It is human nature to be afraid of death. The offer of conditions still made Zhan Feiyu a little confused.

"Ants are still alive, if their lives are gone, what's the use of keeping these silvers." Jin Jiuye looked miserable, he was just a merchant, without the arrogance of a literati and military general.

Seeing that Zhan Feiyu didn't agree, Master Jin Jiu stood up from the pile of straw, looked down at the dirty robe, and continued with a wry smile: "Miss Zhan, the Jin family has been defeated, and I'm up to you whether I live or die." Between the words, even if the Holy Majesty knew about it, he wouldn’t blame you.”

Without the Jin family, Jin Jiuye would be worthless.

In particular, he wanted to leave the Daqing Dynasty to go to the barbarians this time, so even if he could make a comeback, he would become a rich man again, and it was basically impossible to take revenge on the Daqing Dynasty.

"There were rumors that you, Master Jiu, were a spy of the barbarians." Zhan Feiyu looked leisurely as if he was chatting with friends, and looked at Jin Jiuye, whose expression remained unchanged, with a smile, "If I agree, wouldn't it be letting the tiger go back to the mountain?"

"As the saying goes, pills stop in a moment, and rumors stop in those who know. These rumors are nothing but nonsense." Jin Jiuye was frank, as if he saw the hope of living, and there was inevitably a bit of eagerness in his tone, " If the girl is not at ease, I don't have to go to the barbarians, the Daqing Dynasty has a vast territory, and if the girl chooses a state capital at will, I swear by the golden seal that I will not take a step."

If he went to the barbarians, it could be said that there would be endless troubles after letting the tiger go back to the mountain, but Jin Jiuye was willing to stay in the Daqing Dynasty. Whether it was Gu Xueshi or the forbidden dragon guard, as long as he confessed, even if Jin Jiuye wanted to leave, there would be no guidance from the government.

As if thinking about it, Zhan Feiyu smiled and shook his head after a long while, "The state owns the state law, the family has family rules, and the Jin family has a lot of crimes, so many crimes, let alone a million taels, even ten million taels will not let you escape Daqing." Legal sanctions."

It was only at this moment that Jin Jiuye completely changed his face, his eyes were gloomy and frightening, he stepped forward suddenly, grabbed the cold prison door with both hands, and asked with a grinning smile: "Although Jin is a lowly businessman, he also knows Daqing Miss Zhan, do you need Mr. Jin to count how many laws you have violated during the six months in Longyou Road?"

If Zhan Feiyu was an old-fashioned and pedantic scholar, Jin Jiuye would not be so mocking, but she was not righteous, but she used Daqing law as an excuse, which is really a joke in the world!

As if aroused by anger and repressed hatred, Jin Jiuye laughed ferociously, "Let's not talk about it, just talk about the roster, isn't it because you handed it over to Yuan Zhifu, but it almost hurt Yao Zhenyi?" Killed, and finally saved a life but broke a leg."

Yao Zhenyi was lucky that day when the horse was startled, but Madam Cao who was beside her died on the spot.

Zhan Feiyu laughed, but stepped back to ensure that Jin Jiuye, who was standing behind the prison door, would not be able to hurt himself even if he made a sneak attack, "I just followed the trend that day, and someone else did it , even if I go to court, I think I'm innocent."

"Okay, let's not talk about it, what about after that? You sold the roster privately at a price of 5 taels. Although the money was finally handed over to Yang Shoucheng, it is a fact that you wantonly amassed money!" I have to admire Zhan Feiyu's means. Although she didn't lose a tael of silver in this change of hands, it was tantamount to selling both sides.

General Yang and the sergeants of Longyou Dao, who received 30 taels of silver as military pay, were grateful for Zhan Feiyu's generosity. Secondly, the roster was a hot potato. No matter who Zhan Feiyu gave it to, he would offend others, so she simply sold it. Well, even if the princes in the palace don't show their affection, they won't hold grudges against Zhan Feiyu.

But no matter how you try to whitewash the peace, Zhan Feiyu's private selling of the roster is a serious crime.

Zhan Feiyu, who was questioned harshly, couldn't help but rolled his eyes, his clear voice was as rascal as he wanted, "As the saying goes, a high-ranking official crushes people to death, Master Ninth, you are just a prisoner now, and you are being slaughtered." The fish and meat, and I am Gu Xueshi's disciple, what can you do to me if you are not angry?"

"You!" Angry to the extreme, Jin Jiuye wanted to cut Zhan Feiyu alive in front of him, but at this moment he could only say angrily: "In this case, I, Jin, is just a cheap life, but I can tell you, those The silver hidden in the cave has come out to me, and no one in the world will know about it."

Angrily leaving his words, Jin Jiuye turned around and walked back, sitting on the pile of straw with his eyes closed and resting his mind, as if he wanted to kill or cut him, and obeyed.

Zhan Feiyu was also straightforward, and left without saying a word as soon as his little short legs took a step. This kind of decisiveness seemed to really not care about the million silver that Jin Jiuye said.

……

A quarter of an hour later, the carriage left the house. Sitting in the carriage, Zhan Feiyu couldn't help but ask, "Big Brother, is what Jin Zhang said true? Only half of the Jin family's property is being confiscated now?"

Yin Wuyan doesn't care about money, even if the amount is as high as one million taels, "It may be a cave or a secret room, but according to the investigation of the Forbidden Dragon Guard, Jin Zhang's statement is true."

The Jin family was confiscated, and all the account books for the coming years were there. Zhan Feiyu had only calculated the account books of Minhe Mansion in the Yamen before, and these account books were stacked up to a wooden box, not to mention the account books of the Jin family in various state capitals , and old account books from previous years.

Although the final figure has not been revealed, but as the Patriarch of the Jin family in the Three Caves of the Rabbit, it is not surprising that Jin Jiuye would hide some money, and he dared to speak confidently, that is, he was sure that even the Forbidden Dragon Guard would not be able to find it.

Zhan Feiyu nodded in agreement, "These money may also be placed in the grave."

A million taels of silver is not a small amount, even if it takes dozens of people to carry it, the money touches people's hearts. Since Jin Jiuye dared to boast that no one knew the whereabouts of these silver, it shows that no matter whether it was the original craftsman or the later responsible Those who carried it have all been silenced.

Compared with hidden caves, Zhan Feiyu is more inclined to hide treasures in secret rooms and tombs. No matter how secret the caves are, people may accidentally discover them, but for tombs, only grave robbers will patronize them, but if it is just an ordinary tomb, absolutely not. It will attract the attention of grave robbers.

If it was a secret room, it must be underground in a certain house, and unless the house collapsed or was rebuilt, it would not be easily discovered.

"Girl, help me..." Suddenly, a shrill cry sounded, and a figure rushed out from the alley, and knelt down in front of the carriage with a plop.

Fortunately, the speed of the carriage was not fast, and when the man rushed out, He Sheng had already stopped the horse slowly, otherwise the man would probably have been lying under the horse's hooves.

But even so, the carriage stopped suddenly, and Zhan Feiyu, who couldn't sit still, fell forward.

Yin Wuyan stretched out his long arms and pulled her into his arms. When he lowered his head, he found that the little girl was rubbing her nose with one hand. It must have hurt her. There were tears in her dark eyes, and she had a pained look on her face, which made Yin Wuyan startled. .

"My nose must have collapsed." Muttering in a low voice, Zhan Feiyu couldn't help poking the chest in front of him with his fingers, why is it so hard for a body of flesh and blood.

Looking at the little girl who was dissatisfied and complaining, Yin Wuyan could only look away expressionlessly, there was no way to reply.

Outside the carriage, the three souls were scared out of their souls. Qiaoer knelt on the ground in a daze, looking at the tall horse close at hand, the blood on her face faded, and her lips trembled. .

He Sheng recognized at a glance that this was the maid next to the second young lady of the Yuan Mansion, but he didn't understand why she appeared here.

Passers-by who were onlookers also recognized Qiaoyun. It was because Yao Zhenyi had a "prominent" reputation in Minhe Mansion. Every time she went out, she was full of posture. All the other guests are driven out, and they can only do business after Yao Zhenyi has made a choice.

If someone accidentally bumped into the second young lady, they would be scolded at the same time, or beaten and kicked by the servants of the Yuan Mansion. Yao Zhenyi is not only the magistrate's nephew and daughter-in-law, but also a nobleman from the capital. He is a relative of the emperor, so no one in Minhe Mansion would dare to provoke him.

Seeing Qiaoyun kneeling on the ground in such a state of embarrassment, passers-by couldn't help muttering, "I heard that the second young master seems to want to divorce his wife."

"That's right, my natal nephew's aunt works as a cook in Yuan's mansion. I've also heard that, but the Second Young Madam's temper can't be tolerated by the Second Young Master for two years." Even if she is a tigress, she is still a tigress that cannot be provoked. It is not easy for the second young master to marry a wife and a good man.

"It's right, it's not that I didn't report that the time was not up!" The old lady beside me hummed happily. Back then, her little grandson almost ran into the Second Young Madam because he loved to run, but he was only a six-year-old child. Mammy kicked it over, but luckily her grandson was lucky.
