A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Chapter 307

Wei Feng said: "The body was drowned in Wangwangxian Lake. It was discovered by the boatman who was in charge of salvaging debris in the water in the early morning. The Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion has already carried the body back, and called the people of Yang Mansion to go and identify the body."

Qi Huan was always curious, and was waiting for the Ning mother and son to deal with this single Jiucheng's counterattack.

Can--

She didn't expect that the other party had been dawdling for today, but in the end he chose to kill people to silence him, and it was over.

After a moment of silence, she regained her composure and asked, "What is the more specific cause of death?"

This question is obviously not the result of the Jingzhao government's investigation, but the private news from Weifeng.

Wei Feng said: "The subordinates went to check. For more than a month, he went around on credit, spent time and wine everywhere, and owed a lot of debts, especially from the gambling house. He also borrowed a large amount of usury. This money is very profitable. The rolling profit has already reached a considerable amount. Recently, the two underground banks that issued loan sharks have gone to the Yang Mansion several times to press for their accounts. Neither Yang Chenglian nor the Ning family showed up, and the housekeeper insisted that the family did not admit this. As a so-called young master, he refused to repay the debt for him, so the people in the bank below became angry and attacked him."

After a pause, he continued: "Yang Chenglian's actions are very smart. Our people have been watching. No one in his house has had direct contact with anyone in the underground bank, but it should be his housekeeper who is right. The person who came to the door the day before yesterday said something to lure them, and deliberately stimulated them, so they imperceptibly encouraged them to do it last night. He went in and out of the casino again yesterday afternoon, but the inside refused to pay any more credit. How long did he stay? He stayed in the Yingchun Tower at night, and the girl who slept with him woke up in the middle of the night and found that he was gone, and didn't think much about it, because the guests who enter and leave such places often leave at any time."

"People in underground banks are familiar with doing this kind of thing. As long as they don't hold their wrists, even if the people in the government know it well, they can only let it go in the end." Qi Huan sneered, "The old godmother Sure enough, someone who is good at playing tricks, this move can be described as bloodless!"

Pretending to have no choice but to hold the mother and son, she took them into the mansion, gave them all kinds of preferential treatment, and lifted them up to heaven, forgetting about it.

The long-term cost is not a law-abiding master. Since conditions permit and no one controls him, he can't help but squander and enjoy himself.

even--

In the case of Jiang's miscarriage, Ning's made a major incident into a small one, and he was also step by step, to further induce the two people to relax their vigilance.

Now Shan Jiucheng died because he owed his debts, and he was not instigated by Ning's mother and son to go out to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble.

Now that he dies, nothing will happen, no matter whether his identity is true or false, no one will care.

even--

These days he is doing things outside, and the Yang family can also cancel the debts he owes.

after all--

From the beginning to the end, the Yang family never admitted that he was Yang Qiong's grandson, nor did they give him a genealogy to tell him to identify his ancestors.

"It's really very clever." Wei Feng also said, "This Shan Jiucheng is a foreigner. As long as Yang Chenglian does not recognize him, the government will not make trouble for nothing, and the case should be closed soon. And now that he is dead, Yang Chenglian The threat of mother and child forging their backgrounds will also be lifted."

Qi Huan pondered slightly, then suddenly asked: "What about Shan Jiucheng's accomplice?"

Wei Feng said: "It should be that the Yang family informed her about Shan Jiucheng's death in advance. She was frightened, packed up her burden and fled overnight, but now she misled the government. The government preliminarily determined that Shan Jiucheng's death She is suspect."

In this way, if Yang Chenglian killed her in a place where no one was around, the government would think that she committed suicide in fear of crime.

Both of them are dead, so that Ning's mother and son can completely relieve their worries.

"Isn't it already prepared for the next move? Make arrangements, and don't let them idle." Qi Huan said.

Wei Feng left as promised.

And this day's Yang Mansion has been very lively since early in the morning, with visitors coming one after another.

A group of shopkeepers from major taverns, teahouses and brothels in the capital came to collect the accounts, but Butler Liu blocked the door and explained over and over again: "The guest you mentioned is indeed staying at our house temporarily, but it's only because of us. The old man's filial piety, the death is the greatest, and he didn't want these two scoundrels to ruin the old man's reputation. Our old man is a decent person, how could he do such absurd things as raising a foreign wife and not returning home for many years? His old man It is true that a guest died in a foreign land, but there is absolutely no such thing in the theory of the outer chamber.”

Shan Jiucheng once ascended to heaven as a chicken and dog, was extravagant, and owed a lot to various families.

These reminders are all for business, so how can they be willing to suffer this casually?

A group of people were arguing: "Your family's housework has nothing to do with us, we are here to ask for the bill, the person is from your family, if it is not because of your family's popularity, please let him live in your family with more courtesy." House, and replace it with the attitude of our own family, we can't be fooled by this. And he claims to be your young master..."

"You guys are being unreasonable." Butler Liu argued with embarrassment on his face, "Our family made it clear to the outside world that we have to verify our identities before discussing the authenticity...you...you can't go alone Credit accounts in the name of our family are taken seriously. If this is the case, our family will have to sell the house and land to pay off these bad debts from various sources? Besides, that scoundrel is not even half like our master , No one would believe it if they were uncles and nephews!"

"We are all in small businesses..." Those people naturally refused to let go, "In short, you are the people of Yang Fukeng. If you insist on denying it, then we will go to court. This is not a family that was deceived."

"It's true that they are not from our family. Our family has let his mother eat and drink for nothing these days, and it's still a big loss." Butler Liu bit him to death and refused to admit it, "Then why don't we go to court together, my family And sue him too."

All shopkeepers are a little dumbfounded.

When the scene was at a stalemate, Ning's confidant came out of the door to whisper a few words with Steward Liu.

Butler Liu murmured to her, then nodded, relaxed his expression, cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, my master said that although we are the same victims as you in this matter, it is true that that person was the one who rushed at first. He came to my house, if it weren’t for the kindness of my master, he thought that he would have a little bit of money to make things better for others, and he wouldn’t have given him a chance to deceive everyone. It’s not easy for you either. If we admit these accounts, it’s considered a good deed. Put this matter to an end, let everyone relax."

Those who do business are only for money, and someone turned back immediately and began to brag: "Boss Yang is worthy of being a butcher for officials. He understands the people's sentiments and knows that it is not easy for ordinary people like us."

"We're not slandering your family, it's all for making a living. Mr. Yang has a big heart, don't be as knowledgeable as us." Seeing this, the others also agreed.

In front of the Yang Mansion's gate, there was a sound of compliments and praises.

Steward Liu pretended to be modest and greeted a few words, then arranged for everyone to go in, and took the bill signed by Shan Jiucheng in the name of "Yang Huaizhen" to the office for settlement.

There are a total of [-] or [-] shopkeepers here, large and small, and it took some time to check the bills one by one.

During the period, someone went to inform the news, and the two underground banks also came again.

This time, under the guise of "treating everyone equally and cutting flesh with pain", the Yang family quickly settled their money.

Thousands of taels of usury, although it hurts anyone to cut it, but these people took action to settle Shan Jiucheng...

Ning was very open-minded in this regard, and said to Yang Chenglian with a sneer in the room: "Even if it is to buy a murderer, if you want to do it cleanly and without any future troubles, you still need to spend a lot of money, so let's just treat it like this. disaster."

Yang Chenglian has been depressed recently.

One is because of this cheap nephew, and the other is because he lost his wife because of old age. No matter how he thinks about it, he feels that he is the biggest joke in the whole capital. He has never been so embarrassing in his life.

"Come on now, do you have to find a way to deal with that girl from the Qi family?" Yang Chenglian said with a black face, "Even if we get away with this crisis, I don't think she will stop here, she always sees tricks Tricks are not a long-term solution, you have to find a way to prevent future troubles forever."

Ning's complexion was not good either.

But now Yang Chenglian has lost power, and the concubine Wen in the palace is gone, and all the dignitaries are respectful and far away from them.

If Qi Huan didn't have Gu Zhan behind her to escort her, and she was only a young lady of the Changning Hou Mansion, Ning could still be determined to take the risk and get rid of her with ruthless hands. If there is an accident, there is still a chance to succeed. .

But now-

Qi Huan was right under Gu Zhan's nose, and Gu Zhan was not as easy to fool as those of the Qi family, and behind him stood the current queen and prince.

Ning fell silent for a moment.

Yang Chenglian knew that there was nothing she could do.

He was so aggrieved, he couldn't help thinking of the wrong move, and sighed: "We were careless at that time, and we should do our best to keep the empress and the prince in the palace."

If it's just him losing power, Concubine Wen can barely contain Qi Huan by relying on her status as a royal family, and see if there are any loopholes that can be exploited later, but now...

"What are you talking about now?" When Ning heard that he was beating around the bush and blaming herself, she became angry instantly and interrupted him angrily.

Didn't Yang Chenglian know that it's useless to talk too much?When the mother and son were frowning, Butler Liu asked to see him outside.

"Those people have all been sent away?" Yang Chenglian called him in, counting the time, it should have almost settled those bad debts.

"Those who came to ask for money have been sent away, but..." Butler Liu put his hands in his hands, but his face was so embarrassed that he almost didn't dare to look at him, "There is another person from the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion outside, and he said, please come over for a while. trip."

After saying that, she looked at Ning Shi again: "They said that if possible, it's best for the old lady to go with her."

Butler Liu would not make such jokes casually.

Ning's mother and son looked at each other and had a bad feeling at the same time.

Yang Chenglian said angrily: "Absurd, mother, how old is she? What are the people from the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion going to do? Tell her to go to court?"

However, it is impossible to avoid people coming from the yamen or simply ignore them.

He could only forcefully suppress his temper again, and said in a deep voice, "What are they talking about? Or is it because of that rogue?"

He wasn't worried that he would get involved in a life lawsuit. He was confident that Shan Jiucheng's death could be wiped clean.

"Just..." Butler Liu was also embarrassed and didn't know how to speak, "The people in the yamen said that someone went to the yamen to file a complaint against the mother and son who lived in our house before. It's Yang Huaizhen, the grandson of the old lady, the previous one was an impostor, so...that's why they said they wanted to invite the old lady to come and recognize him."

Yang Chenglian: ...

Ning: ...

So, what does this mean?
They just spent a lot of money, and the one who gave away a large sum of money to settle it was actually just a worthless counterfeit?
What responded to Butler Liu was a long silence in the room.

In the end, it was Ning, who had always been the calmest, the first to bear it.

She slapped the Buddhist beads in her hand on the kang table and roared: "Sinister and cunning little bitch, is she endless?!"

The timing was just right, and I knew it couldn't be a coincidence, it must have been arranged by Qi Huan again!

She even intentionally waited for the family to pay out all the money, and then made another attack after being taken advantage of to settle the debt of the impostor!

This is really not letting go of any opportunity to cheat one's own family!

Butler Liu had never seen her get angry like this in person, so he knelt down on the spot.

Yang Chenglian was so angry that he wanted to die right now.

It's unbelievable that Qi Huan is tossing endlessly like this, and all kinds of tricks are hard to guard against...

When exactly is it a boss?
But this time, the other party blatantly went to court, and people from the government intervened. No matter what, he had to go and deal with it face to face.

Of course, the Ning family did not go with them.

Otherwise, it would be too aggrieved to be led by the nose.

She just told Yang Chenglian, try not to say anything in court, if you can't get around, try to find a way to bring him back to the mansion first to solve it.

On the way to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, Yang Chenglian once suspected that the person Qi Huan found this time should also be a counterfeit.

At this moment, he could vaguely understand the girl's routine——

She just seized the life experience and past events that her family was ashamed to expose, and planned to hang them, toss endlessly, to vent her anger, until her family couldn't bear it, and took the initiative to overthrow the fake life experience before, and reveal the true face to the public!
But when he got to the court, he felt that the matter was difficult.

The three members of Yang Huaizhen's family are the plaintiffs, and they are suing the fake product "Shan Jiucheng" whose body was just salvaged today, and her accomplice, the thieves woman Huang who has not been found for a while, but his Yang family has not been included in the list of defendants. In the story, when he just stated the reason why Shan Jiucheng murdered and robbed goods, when he mentioned the motive, it was inevitable to mention Yang Chenglian and his own origin.

In the courtroom, Yang Huaizhen's family also behaved relatively indifferently, and did not show any eagerness to recognize their relatives. Instead, they politely asked Jing Zhaofu Yin to have a private talk with Yang Chenglian.

After all, Yang Chenglian was still a man of status, so the governor of Jingzhao government naturally gave him this favor, and set up a vacant wing for them alone.

Yang Chenglian put on airs, looked at the other party defensively and contemptuously, and did not take the initiative to speak.

Yang Huaizhen actually didn't go around in circles, and directly pointed to his mother Hang to take out some old documents, and cut straight to the point: "My grandfather was exiled in our town in the seventh year of Yongguang, when he was twenty years old, and he was the crown , he married into my family back then, married my grandmother, and never returned to his ancestral hometown. Here are the documents for his relocation and naturalization in Qingzhou Prefecture, the marriage certificate of his marriage to my Hang family, and the old genealogy of the Yang family. My lord You are a master, with a high position and authority, and if you can become a high-ranking official, you must have a smarter mind than ordinary people, so I will not go around in circles with you."

He said, pushing all these things on the table, in front of Yang Chenglian: "Even though my grandfather has passed away for many years, some things cannot be confronted with you face to face, but our family knows very well that he left Ancheng County when he was more than ten years old. To make a living, it is absolutely impossible to have any wives and children before my grandmother. This family tree and documents are ironclad evidence. Now, if I hand these over to the court and explain everything to Mr. Fu Yin, it will definitely cause you a lot of trouble. "

After a pause, he continued: "Of course, if your ancestors are just of the same age as us, and happen to have the same name and surname, then it's a different matter. Do you want to go to the front court with us to discuss this matter?"

Yang Chenglian has been an official for decades, and he has read countless official seals and various official documents and newspapers.

These things placed on the table, not to mention the age, would be difficult to counterfeit, just by looking at the seal and the way the official documents are written——

Definitely not fake.

He originally thought that the family of three were fakes that Qi Huan had found, but he didn't want to—

They are really descendants of Yeon Joon.

Things became extremely difficult in an instant.

Yang Chenglian clenched his fingers into fists to put his hand on the table, and his eyelids twitched violently like a spasm.
